In the secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the gilded wall lamp was only half lit, and the dim yellow light was not too strong, Li Zifeng took off the black cloth that wrapped his eyes and sat opposite the distinguished guest. On the tea table, a pot of hot tea slowly rises with hot air, exuding bursts of fragrance.

The distinguished guest is over the age of the weak crown, and his young face exudes heroism, and his eyes reveal an unpredictable look. The black cloak he wore was made of the best satin surface in Jiangnan, with auspicious clouds and dark trim.

This distinguished guest who secretly went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see Li Zifeng alone was the crown prince of the dynasty, Zhu Luoyun.

Zhu Luoyun's expression couldn't see joy or sorrow, "I knew that you wouldn't die easily." ”

Although it is still the voice in his impression, it is a little more calm than when he was young, but this temperament does not seem to have changed much, Li Zifeng sighed silently, "It's just a steal." There were countless tiredness in his tone, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to explore the rivers and lakes again?"

Zhu Luoyun didn't answer, just stared at Li Zifeng's eyes for a long time, Li Zifeng's eyes looked like ordinary people from the appearance, but his eyes were straight, and he didn't have a look, Zhu Luoyun seemed to be a little disbelieving, raised his hand and shook it in front of Li Zifeng, Li Zifeng shook his head helplessly, "You don't have to be tempted, I can't see it." ”

Li Zifeng said, picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea, the delicious fragrant tea in the past is now filled with a bitter and astringent taste, spreading in the mouth and not going away for a long time.

Zhu Luoyun put down his hand awkwardly and asked tentatively, "You... 's eyes?"

"Oh. Li Zifeng slowly put down the teacup, "A fire, a poison, I became what I am now, making you laugh." ”

Zhu Luoyun's eyebrows were tight, he always felt that something was not quite right with Li Zifeng today, Zhu Luoyun looked at the floating tea leaves in the teacup casually, "The fish is in the throat, it's really uncomfortable." ”

Li Zifeng was slightly stunned, he understood that the 'fish fish' in Zhu Luoyun's mouth referred to Zhu Luofeng, the king of Qingping, it seemed that Zhu Luofeng had already moved, otherwise the prince would not have taken the risk to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The palace masters are like clouds, and the Hengshan faction can stabilize the forces of all parties in the rivers and lakes, each taking what it needs, and making up for its shortcomings. But why did the father and son refuse to let go of their blind man?

Heart is like a mirror, Li Zifeng just wants to pretend to be confused at this time, "Have you seen the imperial doctor?"

Zhu Luoyun looked at Li Zifeng, whether he saw through it or not, "I've seen it, it's just a symptom but not a root cause." ”

"Then what does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean?" Li Zifeng clenched the teacup and held his breath.

Zhu Luoyun's expression suddenly became solemn, "To cure the disease, we must go to the root of it to prevent future troubles." ”

Li Zifeng's heart sank, his whole body seemed to exude a chill, and the hand holding the teacup unconsciously tightened, in fact, sometimes, he suddenly felt that it was good not to see, at least he didn't have to see everyone's thoughts, and he didn't need to see what he didn't want to see. For example, now Zhu Luoyun's eyes.

The matter of sibling slaughter can be said so easily, Zhu Luoyun's fluttering words have already shown that he is no longer the willful young man who traveled and roamed the rivers and lakes back then, and the fight hidden in the shadows is really much more terrifying than real knives and real guns.

Thinking of this, Li Zifeng reluctantly pulled out a smile, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to talk to Zifeng about the fish?"

Zhu Luoyun frowned, and finally couldn't help but get straight to the point, "Brother Zifeng, but you're pretending to be confused with me?"

Speaking of this, Li Zifeng simply smiled self-deprecatingly, "Zifeng is just a civilian, and now he is blind due to injury, I am afraid that he has more than enough heart and insufficient strength, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will think twice." ”

Zhu Luoyun held the teacup and looked at Li Zifeng's eyes a little deeper, "I don't know if Brother Zifeng still remembers what he said when he rescued me from the dead soldiers of Lingye Palace many years ago?"

Li Zifeng was slightly stunned, back then, when he was ordered to go out to investigate the clues of Lingye Palace, when he rescued Zhu Luoyun from the hands of Wang Zhuang, the master of the Foreign Affairs Hall of Lingye Palace, he had promised him that if there was something, he could come to Hengshan to find him. It's just that at that time, he only thought that Zhu Luoyun was a rich son.

Li Zifeng came back to his senses and replied happily, "Of course I remember, if there is anything, just come to me." ”

Zhu Luoyun seemed to be a little disappointed, and sighed slightly, "So now, Brother Zifeng sees that I am in danger, but you want to ignore it?

Hearing the words 'Hengshan faction', Li Zifeng gasped, he could hear that Zhu Luoyun was not complaining about anything, but intended to remind him that his every move would involve others.

After a cup of tea, the tea leaves were stuck in his throat, which was really uncomfortable, Li Zifeng coughed lightly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious, how can I be tired of the sect's reputation?" It's just that now that the evil forces of Lingye Palace are in charge, I'm afraid that a small part of them have begun to infiltrate Wei'an City, so..."Li Zifeng paused and continued, "Only by cutting off their ears and eyes can we really protect your safety." ”

Li Zifeng said this very carefully, neither did he violate his original promise, nor did he directly agree. Now that the evil forces are causing trouble in the rivers and lakes, the court is unstable, and I have heard the conversation between Zhu Luofeng, the king of Qingping, and the protector of Lingye Palace, maybe the plan of Lingye Palace will be cut off, and Zhu Luofeng's conspiracy will also surface.

In this way, the boat is pushed with the current. It won't be tired of the Hengshan faction. Li Zifeng sighed silently.

After half a pillar of incense, Zhu Luoyun secretly left the Prime Minister's Mansion in a carriage, and during this period, Prime Minister Wan Ziyu never showed up, and the housekeeper Wan Lin was busy picking people up and sending people away. Or perhaps, Wan Ziyu was hiding in the dark, silently watching the conversation between Zhu Luoyun and Li Zifeng.

Shen Zhiping and the three of them watched the 'distinguished guest' leave, and then returned to the side courtyard where Wan Ziyu arranged for them to live, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Li Zifeng drinking strong tea cup after cup.

The strong tea was bitter, but Li Zifeng didn't seem to feel it. Shen Zhiping walked over and patted him on the shoulder distressedly, "Are you okay?"

Maybe he was too deeply engrossed, and it wasn't until Senior Uncle Shen patted him on the shoulder that he came back to his senses and listened to the movements in his hand, stood up and bowed slightly, "Senior Uncle, the disciple is rude." ”

Shen Zhiping waved his hand, and the four of them sat around a table. The candles on the candlestick 'crackled' and lit flames, spreading the circle of light, sprinkling a dim yellow light on the room, Shen Zhiping looked at Li Zifeng with a solemn expression, "On the way back, it depends on what is wrong with you, but it has something to do with the people you saw?"

Li Zifeng was noncommittal, "The disciple only now understands the power of Elder Yitong. ”

"Elder Yitong......" Shen Hongfei raised his eyebrows, "You elders of the Hengshan faction, how did he come to Wei'an City, and how did he know our whereabouts?"

Shen Zhiping looked at Shen Hongfei, and then at Lingxi, "Our Yitong Elder Shang Huaifeng, there is a comparison with your Mulin Pavilion, the rivers and lakes of the court and the wilderness, and he is in charge of peripheral affairs in essence, so it is normal to go anywhere." ”

Li Zifeng frowned, "It's just that now that Elder Yitong appeared in Wei'an City and successfully found us in the Tianhe Teahouse, I'm afraid it's a bit too coincidental." Li Zifeng didn't say it explicitly, but he also meant something.

Lingxi drank a glass of water, looked at Li Zifeng and couldn't help but ask, "That distinguished guest?"

Although Li Zifeng never mentioned it, and Wan Lin didn't reveal the slightest hint of his tone, but that distinguished guest, Shen Zhiping also guessed that he could come to the Prime Minister's Mansion and walk into the secret room behind Wan Ziyu's study, who else could there be besides Zhu Luoyun, the crown prince of the dynasty? It can be seen that Wan Ziyu is far more unfathomable than he imagined.

It seems that this Prime Minister's Mansion is not a reassuring place. After being silent for a long time, Shen Zhiping and Li Zifeng almost said in unison, "It's time for us to leave." ”

Shen Hongfei and Lingxi glanced at each other, didn't say anything, and agreed with their proposal in their hearts. It's a bit sudden, but for now, it seems that this may be the only way to go.

The flame scorched the wick and a spark erupted......
