Chapter 413: Uninvited
Coincidentally, in our lives, we are almost everywhere.
Sometimes, we all unconsciously encounter everything that we can't usually think of. Or, sometimes, we want to find something, but we can't find it, and when we don't, we come across it casually.
"Could it be that the prince wants the fifth young man to do this?" Tang Sitian reacted immediately.
"For now, this king can only trust him." King Xiao sighed helplessly.
"There is nothing wrong with the prince handing over this matter to Xing'er. But the capital is so big, I'm afraid that Xing'er's ability is limited and he can't complete the task entrusted by the prince! Zhang Yu was worried about the apprentice.
"Elder Zhang is right. This king had already thought that maybe someone could help him solve this problem. King Xiao thought for a moment and said.
"Who?" Zhang Yu and Tang Sitian couldn't help but ask at the same time.
"You'll know when the time comes." King Xiao pretended to be a secret and did not tell the two for the time being.
The three of them were discussing when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
"Who?" King Xiao asked.
"Lord Wang, it's me. The feast is ready, is it okay to start the feast? The voice outside the door was Wu Buxiao.
"Has the fifth young man come back?" King Xiao asked.
"Not yet." Wu Buxiao replied.
King Xiao and the three of them then opened the door and came out, together with Wu Buxiao, and went straight to the living room of the palace.
"Send someone to look for it, see why the fifth young man hasn't come back yet?" King Xiao said to Wu Buxiao again.
"Yes." Wu Buxiao agreed, and was about to arrange this matter, but he didn't want the fifth line to come back with Princess Qingying and Mu Xianxin.
"Okay, where have you been? How did you come back? Zhang Yu asked the fifth line.
"I went to meet an old friend, but I unexpectedly found another important clue. Lord Wang, can you take a step to speak? The fifth line replied, but said to King Xiao again.
King Xiao expected that the fifth line had also found some important clues, so he only found a secluded corner to talk to the fifth line. The fifth line immediately told King Xiao everything Han Xiang told him.
"Huh! I see, it seems that everything is revealed. The rest is how to deal with the old fox Sheng Lingren. After hearing this, King Xiao said even more angrily.
"The temple is now near the capital, a large number of people have gathered, and some of them are still hiding in the shadows, and the prince can't act rashly for the time being. The top priority at the moment is to find out as soon as possible the whereabouts of General Song Jin, the flower picker Shen Yue, and the Qingcheng disciple Xiang Kun. Oh! There is also Murong Tian's son Murong Jie, it is best to find it together. Although these things seem to be less important on the surface, they are actually very involved, and I am afraid that there are other secrets hidden in them. The fifth line suggests.
"Shaoxia is right. However, at the moment, there is no one who can be trusted, and he still has to bother the fifth young man, and he still uses the identity of the inner secret agent to help the king investigate this matter. When necessary, you can use the identity of Ouchi's secret agent to directly contact the people of the East Factory. King Xiao said in a resigned tone.
Although the fifth line is the identity of the Ouchi secret agent, King Xiao knows that this is only temporary. If nothing is serious, the fifth line may resign from this position at any time, because he obviously still prefers a free life on the rivers and lakes. Because of this, King Xiao couldn't really treat the fifth line as his subordinate, and then speak to him in a commanding tone, but could only beg him to help him as an equal friend.
"This is what the fifth line should do, and the fifth line must do its best." The fifth line immediately agreed.
At present, the masters of the fifth line are temporarily doing things for King Xiao, and the fifth line can't help but agree to King Xiao. What's more, this was originally a problem left over from the previous Guanyin case, and he was indeed negligent in this matter before.
"There is one more thing that needs to be handed over to the fifth young man." King Xiao continued.
"What else?" The fifth line asks.
"When I returned to Beijing before, didn't there be a team of assassins who came to assassinate the emperor? Now that the king has received the news, these assassins may have arrived in the capital, and they are hiding somewhere in the city. This king suspects that these assassins are likely to have internal connections in the capital, so it is not appropriate for this king to mobilize a large number of people to search for them, and he still has to ask the fifth young man to help this king secretly investigate. King Xiao replied carefully.
"This matter is not trivial, with the power of the fifth line alone, I am afraid that it will not be completed, and I ask the prince to take back his fate." The fifth line knew very well that the capital was so big, and it would be impossible for him to find the twenty-three assassins by himself. Therefore, the fifth line naturally did not dare to agree, so he had to excuse himself.
"This king knows your concerns, so this king will send someone to assist you, and please be sure to agree." King Xiao pleaded again.
"Since this is the case, then I can only promise the prince for the time being. However, these two things, the fifth line is not fully sure, so the prince still has to think clearly. In case the fifth line messes things up, I'm afraid it will only affect the prince's big things, and then it won't be good. The fifth line still has some scruples.
"This king has already thought very clearly, these two things must be done by the young man. Let's not talk about that now, you can take a seat first! After King Xiao finished speaking, he immediately added: "Oh! Fifth young man, you went over and called Zhizhi over. ”
"Got it. Lord, then retire first. As the fifth line spoke, he went to the living room of the palace, whispered a few words in Zhizhi's ear by the way, and then entered the table.
When Zhu Zhizhi heard that King Xiao was looking for her, she immediately came to the prince in three or two steps, but asked with a smile: "Brother Huang, what is the matter with me?" ”
"This king asks you? Do you still want to follow the fifth line all the time? King Xiao asked pretending to be serious.
"Where...... No......" In front of the imperial brother, Princess Qingying didn't dare to tell the truth, so she only replied timidly.
"No! Oh! That's it. When King Xiao heard this, he didn't plan to say anything, and he didn't pay attention to Princess Shadow, and went straight to the living room.
"Brother Huang, what's the matter! Let's hear it first. Ah! Please! Seeing this, Princess Qingying immediately pulled King Xiao back.
"Then you answer me first, yes or no?" King Xiao still said seriously.
"Alright! Even if it's it! Princess Qingying reluctantly replied.
"Yes, yes, no, no. What do you mean by counting? King Xiao said, still intending to leave.
"Yes!" When Princess Qingying saw it, she couldn't help but be a little anxious, so she had to honestly agree.
"Huh! That's right! King Xiao heard Princess Qingying tell the truth, but teased again.
Seeing this, Princess Qingying immediately knew that she had been fooled, it turned out that King Xiao was just playing her words, and she was a little embarrassed and said, "Okay! Brother Huang, you are necrotic! Dare to lie to me. People ignore you! ”
"Alright! This king really has something for you to do. "Xiao Wang said it very seriously this time, and he wasn't joking.
"What's the matter? Say it. When Princess Qingying heard this, she immediately asked happily.
However, King Xiao didn't know what to say, but only whispered a few words to Princess Qingying, and then asked, "Do you understand?" ”
Princess Qingying was obviously a little puzzled, and only asked, "Brother Huang, why are you ......?"
"You don't have to ask anything, just do what this king says, and then fully cooperate with the fifth young man to investigate the case, that is a great achievement. Don't ask too much about other things for the time being, and you'll understand when the time comes. If you do this well, the king will reward you heavily. King Xiao advised.
"What is the royal brother going to reward me?" Princess Qingying is very concerned about the issue of reward.
"Hmmm! I'll give you the fifth line as a colt!" King Xiao thought for a moment, and suddenly said in a joking tone.
"Oops! Brother Huang, you laughed at me again, I really ignored you! When Princess Qingying heard this, her face was already crimson, and she bowed her head and went to the living room, and King Xiao just smiled, and then followed her.
Everyone had already sat down, King Xiao and the princess were accompanied, and a new guest, Tang Sitian, came, and everyone was eating very happily, when suddenly the palace guards came in and said, "Lord, the second prince of the temple, Sheng, inexplicably asks to see you." ”
Originally, everyone was eating very happily, but when they suddenly heard the words "Sheng inexplicable", they were all immediately stunned, and even the sound of clinking glasses was gone.
"Lord Wang, there is nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace! He is asking to see us now, and he must have come to test us. Cheng Shiwu was the first to break the silence and said.
"Since people are here, they can't be gone! Please. King Xiao thought for a while and said.
When the doorman heard this, he immediately went out, and after a while, he led Sheng in a luxurious dress to come in inexplicably. Today, Sheng came to see King Xiao inexplicably, although he didn't wear his very dazzling golden clothes anymore, but he was also dressed in red, which was still very eye-catching.
"Sheng has inexplicably seen the prince, the old man Zhang, and the heroes. I don't know if the heroes are here, I take the liberty to disturb you, and I hope you will be weird! Sheng said inexplicably very politely.
"It's better to come early than to come by chance, since you are here, let's sit down and have a drink together." King Xiao also said very generously.
"Since that's the case, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." After Sheng inexplicably finished speaking, someone had already moved a chair, and Sheng inexplicably found a vacant seat to sit inexplicably.
Sheng inexplicably got the order of his father Sheng Lingren, and wanted to come to the palace to test King Xiao's bottom, but when he saw so many people in the palace eating and drinking together, he also felt that it was not convenient at all, so he didn't speak.
During the banquet, except for Princess Xiao, everyone else was a little arrogant, eating and drinking together for fun, but they were also very happy, and there were not as many intrigues as usual.
They all ate until late at night, and then they were all a little drunk, and they had to disperse. It's just that Sheng inexplicably thought about a lot of words, but he didn't have a chance to speak, so he had to leave the palace stupidly.
