On this day, Li Zijun was in a daze with the reply letter from the sixth prince to him, and the monkey hurriedly ran in from outside:

"Young master, something happened?"

"Don't panic, say it slowly, what's going on?" Li Zijun has been used to hearing the words 'accident' these days, and he behaved extremely calmly.

"Princess Blanche is dead!"

"Who, who do you say?"

"Princess Blanche!"

"Princess Blanche, is this news accurate?"

"Exactly! Her body was dumped in an alley in Pingyao, and our people from the Divine Cult and local officials have already verified it, and it is indeed Princess Blanche! We are jointly investigating the murderer with local officials, but we haven't gotten any clues yet!"

"I still need to investigate a fart, it's either Karen or Victor, I really regret letting them go like this at that time!" Li Zijun's heart was on fire and he slammed the table with his fist.

"Young master, what should we do now? Ernest is still waiting for news from the princess!"

"You find someone to send Blanche's body back here, and besides, you can call Ernest too!" Li Zijun sighed and waved his hand at the monkey.

"You just tell him that, in case he doubts"

"He is a smart man who should have thought that the murderer was not us. Besides, this matter can't be hidden, such a big thing will soon spread all over Dongwoo, so instead of letting him know about it from others, it is better for us to tell him directly. Go and fetch him, and I'll tell him about it myself!"

Seeing that Li Zijun had already made a decision, the monkey didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out. After a while, he brought Ernest to Li Zijun.

"Sit!" Li Zijun looked at Ernest and pointed to the chair across from him.

"Monkey, pour Ernest a glass of water!"

"Yes!"

"Don't be so troublesome! Lord Wang, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. Is there something wrong with Blanche?" Seeing Li Zijun's solemn appearance, Ernest's whole body became stiff, and he looked at Li Zijun and asked in a low voice.

"I just got the news that Princess Blanche appeared in Pingyao. I'm sorry, she's gone!" Li Zijun looked into Ernest's eyes and told him the truth.

"Gone? She's gone? How is that possible? She just does what I say. Lord Karen can't even see her, how could she not be there?

"It has been confirmed by many parties that that person is Princess Blanche! I have already ordered her body to be sent back to the capital, and I believe that you will be able to see her with your own eyes in a few days!"

"As for why she was there, we are still investigating. But no matter what, I'll definitely give you an explanation for this!"

"No! I know who did it to her!" said Ernest with a bitter look on his face.

"It's Karen! Pingyao is the place where we agreed with her to leave Dongyu together and rendezvous. ”

"I told Blanche not to go, not to go. She'd promised me, but why did she want to go?" Ernest burst into tears, tilted his body, and fell heavily to the ground.

Li Zijun glared at the monkey fiercely, and he quickly walked around the table and helped Ernest up from the ground.

"Mourning changes, mourning changes!" At this time, Li Zijun didn't know how to comfort Ernest. He just kept repeating those four words.

"Lord Wang, I have a request. I hope you can agree?" Ernest, who sat back in his chair, seemed to suddenly remember something, and he hugged Li Zijun and begged.

"You say, as long as I can do it, I will do my best!"

"I want to pick up Blanche, can I?"

"This"

"Okay!" Ernest's weak eyes deeply moved Li Zijun, so that he couldn't bear to refuse Ernest's request at all.

"It's just that you have to promise me a few conditions!"

You say. I'll promise you anything!" As he spoke, Ernest grabbed Li Zijun's shirt tightly.

"First, you have to go in disguise so that outsiders don't see you, and Karen and Victor shouldn't be far away once they spot you. You'll never come back. Princess Blanche is gone, and I can't put you in there. ”

"No problem, I won't let anyone see me!"

"Second, you can only go as far as the city of Nogan, and I will not allow you to take half a step further, for the same reason as before: I need you alive!"

"Third, you have to come back here anyway, do you know what I mean?"

"Understood, lord, don't worry, I know very well that it is impossible to avenge Blanche with my own strength, I will definitely return here, I just hope that you can give me a chance at that time!" After the initial sadness, Ernest had gradually regained his senses, and he looked at Li Zijun with an eager heart.

"It's to give us each other a chance!" Li Zijun looked into Ernest's eyes and nodded very solemnly.

"Monkey, send Ernest to the city of Nogan, remember: keep him safe!"

"Yes!" the monkey nodded yes, and led Ernest out of Li Zijun's study.

What the monkey didn't expect was that as soon as they stepped out of the study, Ernest reached out and grabbed his arm.

"What are you?" the monkey said as he looked at Ernest with a puzzled face.

"I have one thing to tell you, as to whether you should report to the prince or not, you decide for yourself!" said Ernest, telling the monkey the secret of his heart.

"And this?!" Hearing Ernest's story, the monkey couldn't help but be taken aback.

"It's not difficult to verify"

"No, no, it's not that I don't believe you, I'm just surprised, it's amazing!"

"Will you come with me to meet someone?" the monkey hesitated and couldn't come up with a better solution, and in desperation, he thought of Bunian.

During this time, Li Zijun had many things to discuss with people every day, and of course, for safety reasons, he arranged Bunian in the mansion.

And Bunian's performance did not disappoint Li Zijun, and he gradually won the recognition of the entire palace with his outstanding performance. So when the monkey was helpless, it was natural to think of him!

Ernest would not object to the monkey's proposal, and the two soon appeared in front of Bunian.

After hearing Ernest's secret, Bunian did not react directly, nor did he immediately let the two of them leave, and he actually made a casual conversation with Ernest. It wasn't until the monkey reminded him that Ernest was going out that Bunian reluctantly let them go.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect Bunian to be so talkative, and almost delayed your business!" Outside, the monkey waved his hand awkwardly to Ernest, slightly embarrassed.

"He's not talkative, he's testing me!"

"Tempting you? I listen to him talk to you about some short things in the family, is this also a temptation?"

"Mistress Buñan was very tempting, starting with the little things that didn't have to lie, and in the process he would patiently observe and remember the changes in my expression to come up with a benchmark. ”

"When he feels he's set that benchmark, he takes the conversation deeper and then observes me through the subtle changes in my expression. At this time, it won't be so easy for me to fool him again!"

"And this kind of thing? I don't see it, this Bunian is quite capable, but he is really a little redundant, everyone is his own family, why should he bother? Ernest, don't you care too much!"

"It's normal procedure, nothing!"

If you really feel uncomfortable, I'll report to the young master and let the young master clean him up!"

"No, no, sir, send me away first!"

"Yes, yes, look at my memory!" the monkey patted his head and led Ernest out of the courtyard quickly.

Sending Ernest away, the monkey returns to Li Zijun's study, and it just so happens that Bunian also arrives.

"Old Bu, what you have done today is so obvious that it can be seen by others!" the monkey then repeated what Ernest had just said to him to Li Zijun and Bunian.

"Lao Bu, what do you think of this Ernest, is it available?" After listening to the monkey's narration, Li Zijun turned his gaze to Bunian's face.

"This Ernest's wisdom and reaction are far beyond ordinary people, he is a rare talent, if he can be used by us, it is naturally the best. But in case, I suggest getting rid of it as soon as possible!"

"After all, he is a talent, it's a pity to get rid of him like this, when he comes back, you can help me test him, if there is no problem, let him stay here for the time being, and the rest, we'll talk about it later." ”

"Did he tell you anything?"

"No!" Bunian shook his head directly at Li Zijun.

"Me neither!" the monkey peeked at Bunian, who eventually shook his head too!

With Dongyu's successful inclusion of Ziqing in his territory, the sea-going trade on the Seine Peninsula, which had been suspended for many days, also became popular. Some merchants who saw the opportunity sent people to board the ship, and they wanted to go to Ziqing to find more space for development!

Driven by these merchants, the Seine Peninsula has ships rushing to Ziqing almost every day, and today is no exception!

It's just a slight difference from the usual thing that in the past, merchant ships always departed on time, but this merchant ship has not started for a long time.

Just when the passengers on the ship were getting more and more irritable, suddenly a team of guards surrounded a middle-aged woman from far and near, and came to the ship.

"Old butler, is she still there?" the middle-aged woman asked in a low voice after bowing to an old man waiting here. (To be continued.) )
