Yanwang Mansion, Zhao Yanshou's mansion, is also the largest mansion in Youzhou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

A group of Youzhou soldiers held torches high, holding spears, slowly patrolled by the Yanwang Mansion, when it was near, except for the Youzhou garrison that occasionally patrolled by, there was no one in Youzhou City.

Unlike Kaifeng, the entire Youzhou city is divided into dozens of squares by high walls, and there is a strict curfew system. Those who do not make it back in time are apprehended by patrolling soldiers, who can be killed if they resist.

The soldiers on patrol did not notice that on a large tree on the side of the street, there was a figure lurking, dressed in black, and his face was covered by a black cloth. As the patrolling soldiers faded into the darkness of the night, the figure leaped down and landed silently on the ground like a tanuki. With a flicker, he jumped across the empty street, turned around again, and jumped onto the high wall of Yanwang's Mansion. In the blink of an eye, he jumped into the palace and disappeared.

Unlike the lifeless and dark outside the palace, there are a lot of lights in the palace, and there is a faint sound of bamboo, which is very peaceful and vivid.

This is the third time Li Fengyun has touched the Yanwang Mansion, for this area, he is already familiar with the road, bypassing a wood, in a rockery, there is a dark post of the Yanwang Mansion, the first time he sneaked into the palace, Li Fengyun was almost discovered by the dark whistle, fortunately he was alert, quickly lay behind a piece of bluestone, learned to call the wild cat twice, deceived the dark whistle.

It is not difficult to bypass the rockery, and further on, through two or three courtyards, is the study of Yanwang Zhao Yanshou, there are at least ten people guarding around the study, and I don't know how many secret whistles there are, there must be a lot of organs around the study, Li Fengyun guessed, such a tight defense, the study is definitely not a simple place. The place where Li Fengyun wants to explore tonight is the study.

Lurking on top of a big tree, Li Fengyun didn't move, relying on his eyes and hearing, which were far beyond ordinary people's eyes, he had already discovered three hidden sentries.

The defense was too tight, and Li Fengyun couldn't sneak into the vicinity of the study without alerting the guards.

“...... Hurry up, go quickly, if you make the prince wait, you can't eat and walk around. Just when Li Fengyun was thinking hard about what he could do, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps and talking, Li Fengyun's heart moved, and he quietly jumped down from the tree, lurking in the shadow of the corner, but in time, two servants dressed as subordinates hurriedly passed by.

Li Fengyun stretched out his hand to pop out a stone, only to hear a soft sound of "pop", the servant who walked in front of him holding the lantern had quietly fallen to the ground, and the servant behind was stunned, before he understood what was going on, he suddenly felt that his mouth was covered, and his neck was cold, and someone whispered in his ear: "Don't bark, relax, otherwise, your dog's life will not be guaranteed!"

The servant trembled, nodded slightly, and the food box in his hand kept trembling.

Li Fengyun asked him to put the tray in his hand aside, pulled him to the corner, and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Wang ...... The Prince's Book ...... "The servant replied, and felt that he was not detailed enough, for fear of angering the one in front of him, and hurriedly added: "Today, the prince and a distinguished guest are discussing things in the study, and seeing that it is almost time, he ordered the kitchen to make some supper and send them over. ”

As expected, he finally had a chance to get close to the study, Li Fengyun nodded, put away the dagger, and interrogated the details again. It turned out that this person's name was Zhao Shigui, working in the kitchen, the servant in front was called Zhao Zhong, he was a scholar in Zhao Yanshou's study, and he was quite respected and trusted by Zhao Yanshou, Zhao Shigui and Zhao Zhong were not very familiar with each other, after all, the identities of the two were there, and Zhao Zhong's identity was much higher than Zhao Shigui, so how could there be Zhao Shigui in his eyes.

Zhao Shigui was frightened, and he knew everything about Li Fengyun, and he poured out everything he knew. Even he didn't dare to hide the fact that he peeked at the maid Xiaohong taking a bath.

Li Fengyun laughed secretly, seeing that he couldn't ask anything from Zhao Shigui's mouth, he stretched out his finger to faint him, and then carried Zhao Shigui to a forest and changed into his clothes, Li Fengyun's figure was similar to Zhao Shigui's, after putting on his clothes, it was really difficult to distinguish if he didn't look carefully in the hazy night.

Walking out of the woods, Li Fengyun picked up two food boxes and unlocked Zhao Zhong's acupoint with one finger.

Zhao Zhong didn't know martial arts, without the slightest suspicion, a bone crawled up, lifted the lantern again, stomped his feet angrily, and muttered: "What's the matter, recently the right eyelid has been jumping up, drinking water and stuffing his teeth, and even walking and falling, could it be that he has hit the evil spirit? Tomorrow, I will definitely go to the City God Temple to ask the City God Lord for the blessing of the Lord City God to drive away evil spirits." ”

He turned around and shouted: "Zhao Shigui, you are a dead star, when I saw my master, I fell, and I didn't say that I was clever enough to help me, no wonder I can only do a lifetime of unproductive handymen!"

Li Fengyun raised the two food boxes in his hand, and responded with two sentences.

The night was very dark, so Zhao Zhong didn't suspect it, but just urged Li Fengyun to send the supper quickly.

Li Fengyun remained silent, followed behind Zhao Zhong, and hurried towards the study.

Li Fengyun obviously felt several sharp gazes sweeping from the surroundings, stabbing at him, making Li Fengyun feel like a man's back. However, these people seemed to be very familiar with Zhao Zhong, and when they saw Zhao Zhong leading the way in front, they didn't pay much attention to it, and no one stepped forward to interrogate. Li Fengyun knew that these people were hidden sentinels.

It wasn't until they came to the courtyard gate of the study that a guard stopped Zhao Zhong and carefully looked at the waist cards of the two before letting them in.

In the courtyard of the study, there was no guard, it seemed that the matter that Zhao Yanshou talked about with the distinguished guest tonight was extremely confidential, and even his personal guards were not allowed to stay in the courtyard.

"Lord Wang, the supper prepared in the kitchen is ready, do you think you can use it now or later?" Zhao Zhong hunched his waist and asked loudly outside the study with a sneer.

There was silence in the study for a while, and someone said, "Take it in!"

Zhao Zhong agreed, waved his hand at Li Fengyun who was following him, motioned for Li Fengyun to follow him in, and said in a low voice: "Be smart!" Then he pushed open the door of the study, bowed over, and walked in.

Li Fengyun lowered his head and followed Zhao Zhong into the study.

Li Fengyun peeked around, Zhao Yanshou's study was very large, there was a small round table in the middle, and there were two people sitting at the round table, one of them was very powerful, with a square face, a wide mouth, sword eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes, and he was about forty years old.

The other was wearing a green shirt, he looked not young, he was strong and burly, and there was a hidden edge in his eyes. Seeing this person, Li Fengyun secretly screamed in his heart, he had seen this person, and it was absolutely impossible for this person not to recognize him.
