After that, the two chatted about something, but it was useless. When the spies saw that they couldn't extract any useful information in this Wu Wangfu, they didn't waste time and stayed in this Wu Wangfu. Only the number of people who should have been left was left, and the rest went elsewhere to investigate the situation in other parts of the capital.

On the other side, in the East Palace. Shen Huo sat on the desk, holding a book in his hand, reading it with relish. The content of this book, from the perspective of others, will definitely feel boring - the content is all about the strategy of governing the country, or the way of using troops.

However, Shen Huo read it with relish, holding the book in his hand, and was almost reluctant to put it down.

At the celebration banquet today, the reactions of the ministers, the reaction of the emperor, and the words of the queen and Shen Huo after the banquet were all engraved in Shen Huo's mind, together with the figure of Chu State that haunted him, gave Shen Huo great courage.

Whenever he thought of this, Shen Huo's body, which originally felt a little tired, was suddenly able to lift up a lot of strength, and he was able to hold the books on the desk that he originally felt boring, and look through them with relish.

Just when Shen Huo was fascinated, there was a sound of "bang" from the window outside. This voice disturbed Shen Huo, making him put down the book he was holding tightly in his hand and look in the direction of the window vigilantly.

"Who is it?" Even if he didn't know what was going on outside, Shen Huo could faintly guess that someone must have come to this East Palace, and he couldn't help but lift his spirits, and the muscles on his whole body tensed, looking out the window vigilantly, like a beast ready to attack.

Accompanied by Shen Huo's whispered question, there was a more violent noise above the window. Then, one person replied to Shen Huo in a low voice: "If you go back to Your Highness, the villain has absolutely no malicious intent, please let the villain in first." ”

As he spoke, the window shook. It turned out that Shen Huo deliberately closed the window in order to read the book cleanly and not be disturbed by the outside world. At this time, the person outside the window couldn't get in, and he couldn't get in, so he made this decision and pleaded with Shen Huo.

And Shen Huo listened to what the man outside said, and first showed a look of hesitation. Only then did he grit his teeth and make up his mind, thinking that according to his own strength, nothing would go wrong.

With this in mind, Shen Huo took three steps and two steps, hurriedly stepped forward, and opened the window. As the window opened, a person rolled in like lightning, stood still in Shen Huo's room, bowed respectfully to Shen Huo, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Although this palace is still living in the East Palace, this identity is no longer His Royal Highness the Prince. You don't have to say that, just call the big prince. Shen Huo shook his hand, corrected the name of the person in front of him, raised his head slightly, and frowned to observe the appearance of the person in front of him.

The person in front of him was really strange: the whole person was wrapped in a black cloth, and even his face was carefully covered with a black cloth, revealing only two eyes, like stars in the sky, looking at Shen Huo brightly.

In Shen Huo's impression, he had never known such a person, and for a while, he couldn't help but be surprised, looking this person up and down.

And this person was looked at by Shen Huo, but he was not angry, he just smiled lightly, and first said to Shen Huo in a kind manner: "That's good, the eldest prince." ”

After saying this, the man quickly became serious, and said, "The eldest prince." To tell the truth, the identity of the villain is a carefully trained spy in Xuanwu Village. ”

Hearing this identity, Shen Huo obviously didn't expect it, and raised half of his brow in surprise: "People from Xuanwu Village? In that case, you have come to the East Palace to find out what this king is doing. ”

Hearing Shen Huo's words, this person immediately complained a little bitterly. Lin Qingyuan's relationship with Shen Huo has always been average, and the power of Xuanwuzhuang is a little fearful. If he said directly to Shen Huo, Lin Qingyuan was actually secretly supporting Shen Huo, but I was afraid that Shen Huo would not only not believe it, but would also suspect the motive of this spy.

Thinking like this, the more he thought about it, the more irritated he became, and the more he thought about it, the more he didn't know what to do, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, but just answered Shen Huo's previous question: "A few days ago, before you left Da Zhou, you specially asked a few of us to carefully observe the movements in Beijing, and if there is anything unusual, I will report it to you first." ”

"And what have you found now?" Hearing what the spy said, Shen Huo also understood what he meant, and his mind became active, and he asked.

"Exactly." The spy nodded and agreed with Shen Huo's statement, "The little one is stationed at King Wu's mansion." Today, in the palace of King Wu, it can be said that a major event has happened. ”

Before Shen Huo could ask what the big deal was, the spy replied first: "Today in King Wu's mansion, a banquet was held. ”

Shen Huo's brows furrowed silently, but he didn't make a sound, just listened quietly to what the spy said. I only heard the spy say: "At this banquet, King Wu specially summoned those ministers who supported him, on the one hand, to consolidate his own power, and on the other hand, to deal with you. ”

"Although the ministers have not come up with any effective plans at the moment, this matter is not in your favor after all. The little one obeyed the teachings of the owner, for fear that this matter would have an impact on you, so he hurriedly came to the East Palace and told you about this matter, and hoped that you would not be surprised. ”

Hearing what the spy said, Shen Huo didn't show any superfluous expression, just nodded rather indifferently and said, "This palace knows." Thank you for this matter, and thank you for your help. ”

This spy is just a small spy in Xuanwu Village, how dare he bear Shen Huo's such gratitude? He hurriedly shook his head and said, "The eldest prince has praised it. This matter is a small matter, and there is no need to be so polite. ”

After saying this, the spy hurriedly said: "This time, the little one rushed to the East Palace, just to talk to His Highness about this matter. I also hope that the eldest prince will be more vigilant in the future. Don't fall into the trap of King Wu. ”

When Shen Huo heard this, he nodded, signaling that he naturally understood. Only then did the spy put his mind at ease, and bowed deeply to Shen Huo again, and said, "Since this is the case, the little one will retire first." ”

After saying this, after getting Shen Huo's affirmative answer, the spy flew by and left the East Palace from the window, and disappeared between a few ups and downs.

And Shen Huo kept observing the spy carefully until his figure completely disappeared from view, then he withdrew his gaze, turned back to the room, and thought carefully.

Today, the whereabouts of this spy are like the wind, and they are like the wind, but they are really unpredictable. But the meaning he expressed was exceptionally clear.

For a moment, Shen Huo really felt that this was a dream. However, if it is a dream, how can it be so real? It's not a dream, it's a bit difficult to make him believe that Lin Qingyuan is willing to help him.

Shen Huo thought about it carefully for a long time and couldn't come up with an answer, so he simply didn't think about it anymore. In any case, Gu Zhiheng's decision to deal with him is already an indisputable fact. Even if he doesn't get this spy's reminder today, Shen Huo will be secretly vigilant. And this spy just made him vigilant a little earlier.

It is said that the emperor is ruthless. Even if Shen Huo wanted to be friends with Gu Zhiheng, Gu Zhiheng would never give him a chance. There is such a big treasure position, but both of them want to sit on it, which will definitely cause countless disputes.

"That's fine. Since you are unkind and righteous first, don't blame this palace for being ruthless and unjust. A sneer crossed Shen Huo's eyes, and a few thoughts arose in his heart, and he looked up at the distant sky, not knowing what he was looking at.

After a while, Shen Huo withdrew his gaze and turned around to go back to his room to rest. It's just that even after returning to the room, Shen Huo is still thinking about a lot of things in his heart.

Because Shen Huo completely believed in He Suoyi now, he couldn't bear to let He Suoyi suffer in the Chu State again, so he made up his mind to defeat Gu Zhiheng and let He Suoyi return to the Great Zhou.

With such thoughts, Shen Huo only felt that layers of fighting spirit were surging in his heart, so he was no longer afraid, and simply started a political fight with Gu Zhiheng.

And Gu Zhiheng is ambitious, so he is naturally unwilling to be subservient. In the face of Shen Huo's active provocation, Gu Zhiheng would definitely not be merciful, and the battle between the two was in full swing.

Above the court. The emperor first glanced at the ministers with a majestic gaze and asked, "What do you think about this flood, all Aiqing?" ”

"Back to my father's words." Shen Huo took the first step forward, saluted respectfully to the emperor, and said, "Erchen thinks that this flood is more important than blocking. Therefore, the opinion of the retainers was to send a group of people to the places where floods were frequent and dredge the waterways. ”

After saying this, Shen Huo saluted respectfully again and quickly retreated. Before the emperor could express any opinions, Gu Zhiheng stood up again.

Seeing Gu Zhiheng stand up, the emperor's mouth that he originally wanted to open his mouth to speak closed again, glanced at Gu Zhiheng with interest, and continued to remain silent.

"Father. What Erchen thinks the eldest brother said is not reasonable. After Gu Zhiheng stood up, he glanced at Shen Huo quite unceremoniously, and then continued, "Since ancient times, this method of dealing with floods has mainly been to block. If it's dredged, isn't it nonsense?"

"Therefore, Erchen thinks that the solution to this flood is to block it, not dredge it." After saying this, Gu Zhiheng turned around and glanced at Shen Huo defiantly, and then retreated.

In response to the same situation, the two put forward different opinions. It's almost a head-on confrontation. Suddenly, a bit of a posture of confrontation was faintly formed in the court, Shen Huo and Gu Zhiheng each occupied one side, and they did not give an inch to each other.
