Chapter 209: The East and the West (Part 1)

The lost geese are gone in the cool autumn, the blue sea is imprisoned by the stars and the silver moon is locked by the silver autumn. Helplessly, the ink is dyed in the evening, and the frost lamp shines alone on the falling maple sorrow.

People have endless opportunities, different things, and they want different things.

Some people pursue fame and fortune, some people pursue money, and some people pursue power...

What Xiao Nanfeng pursues is to stay with his beloved forever... He has fame, wealth, power, and money. Despite this, what he wants most is that he has not gotten...

Now, for what he wants most, he will not hesitate to put down the power and status that many people want but cannot get.

For Xiao Yan, he was the monarch of Daliang. He had everything above all people, but he also had things he wanted but could not get.

For example, the immortality that all kings have pursued since ancient times, such as the secret of the Resurrection Pill!

Although Xiao Nanfeng repeatedly explained to him before that the Resurrection Pill does not have the effect of immortality, facing the secret of resurrection, it is an existence that has a huge temptation just like being able to live forever.

As an emperor, Xiao Yan would never let go of such a thing.

The reason why he wanted to keep Xiao Nanfeng in the capital was that he knew that Xiao Nanfeng was not interested in playing with the powerful and the rich, but he also had too ordinary strategies and cunning. If such a person was not used by him, it would be a big hidden danger in other countries.

But the biggest hidden danger for Xiao Yan is Xiao Qingyue. He wants to get the secret of the Soul Resurrection Pill to keep Xiao Nanfeng, and to get rid of Xiao Qingyue without knowing it. He cannot solve this matter with force, so he can only take it by wisdom.

Nowadays, most powerful people in the capital are more or less related to Xiao Nanfeng and Xiao Qingyue, such as the Eastern Palace, the General's Mansion, the Censor's Mansion, the Nankang Prince's Mansion, etc.

At this time, Xiao Yan could think of the only one who helped him was the Yin family. On the surface, he removed the official positions of the Yin family father and son, just to cover up his eyes and ears, but secretly contacted the Yin family.

Now Yin Jun, who was depressed and unsuccessful for several days, ignited his fighting spirit again. The relationship between him and Xiao Nanfeng has not yet ended!

On the other side, the Linchuan Prince's Mansion, which had been guarded by heavy troops for a long time, suddenly withdrew its troops in the past two days, leaving only a few guards behind the Imperial Guards. Xiao Nanfeng was still not allowed to go out privately, and the people who were requesting to meet outside were no longer rejected.

In the past few days, the mansion has been preparing for the joyful events for some days. The Linchuan Prince's Mansion seems to have returned to its former appearance, and exquisite utensils have been moved into the mansion.

In the study, Xiao Nanfeng was sitting in front of the desk and staring at a scroll of painting on the table. This painting was painted by him after coming to Jiankang this month.

Under the lush osmanthus tree, there was a woman in a light floral dress with a smile and beautiful eyes.

Looking at the glance and smile, it was as if I had seen her...

After less than a day since this person left, Xiao Nanfeng felt as if he had lost something, and he had longing for him, and more worried. Now that Xiao Qingyue is pregnant, only a few trusted people around him know about it. If he doesn't move faster, something will happen sooner or later. He wants to force the palace directly on the wedding day, but the woman disagreed. After thinking about it, he couldn't think of any good way to rebel.

In the courtyard outside the study, the people in and out, with lights and colorful decorations, and were busy, but the people in the study were frowning...

The day passed like this soon. After nightfall, light rain fell on the sky.

Today's night was like ink, extremely dark, and I couldn't see my five fingers. At this time, the Linchuan Palace had fallen into silence after a day's busy life, with only the sound of drizzle.

The imperial guards patrolling the mansion still patrolled every day. Although there were not as many people as before, the ones that remained should not be underestimated. They are all first-class masters.

It was almost midnight, and at this time, a figure like the dark night flipped onto the roof of the backyard of the royal palace. The figure carefully watched the movements of the imperial guards in the mansion while looking for something. When he saw that the lights in several rooms in the study courtyard were still on, the man turned over from the roof.

Although his martial arts are extremely high, the imperial guards are not vegetarians. This movement still made the imperial guards, who were always monitoring Xiao Nanfeng's movements nearby, discovered...

A sound of neat and rapid footsteps came to this side. The man was a little panicked when he saw this. The lights were on in front of him. Which room did he enter to avoid being searched.

Just as he was hesitating to choose between the two rooms, the door not far from him suddenly opened, and the man who came out of the room took three steps, and with a "swoosh" sound, a gust of wind passed, and others were quickly taken into the room...

Just as the door was closed, a team of imperial guards rushed to the scene, and the leading guard looked at several rooms with lights on.

He plucked up his courage to instruct his subordinates, "Search me in various rooms!"

The leader of the team leader was recently promoted and was only arranged to come to the Linchuan Palace for two or three days.

At this time, a guard under his subordinate whispered, "Boss, these are all the Sixth Prince's library! Let's ask for instructions from the Sixth Prince first." Sixth Prince is a person who can't afford to offend him. If he angers him, he will have to take care of him.

Several other guards also stopped in place and did not dare to go forward to search at will.

The leader was a little tough and looked fearless, and encouraged him, "What are you afraid of! The emperor has ordered to closely monitor the movements in the palace. We are doing our business for the emperor!" No matter how powerful the sixth prince is, can he surpass the current emperor?

The guards of a team were still hesitating, and no one dared to step forward. When the leader saw this, he walked out of a room and pushed the door open directly, then shouted.

"We are all working for the emperor, what are we afraid of! I will search this room, and you will search the next room!"

Nearly a dozen imperial guards heard this, watched each other for a while, and prepared to act accordingly...

There are three rooms connected together, and the two rooms on both sides are the library in the royal palace, and only the bedroom in the middle is the bedroom that Xiao Nanfeng usually stays for a long time.

After more than a dozen people searched the two library rooms, no trace of anyone was found. Now there is only the room in the middle that has not been searched.

It is said that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, and the leader didn't know where he got the courage, so he came directly outside the door, about to knock on the door.

The door opened suddenly with a "huh"...

The man standing inside the door looked cold, as if disturbed by the noise outside, and was extremely unhappy!

Except for the leading guard, the other guards saw the people standing in the door and knelt respectfully with a "slam".

"See the Sixth Prince!"

The leading guard seemed a little scared. After a brief moment of anxiety, his legs weakened and he knelt directly on the ground. His toughness just now had already disappeared.

"I... I pay homage to the Sixth Prince!" He never thought that he would see this rumored beauty in the world at such a close distance.

The man glanced coldly over the kneeling people, and then he fell to the person who was kneeling nearest to him. He could hear clearly what they were talking outside the room just now!

A sneer flashed across his mouth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He asked knowingly.

"What are you doing in the middle of the night?"

The leading guard quickly replied, "Report to the prince, my subordinates heard something in the garden, as if someone had broken in, so they rushed over to check it."

"Is that true? Since I found someone broke in, no one informed me in advance!"

The leading guard replied, "The incident happened suddenly, and my subordinates still have time to report to the prince!"

When the man heard this, the curve of the corners of his mouth could not help but bend bigger, "Is it because he has time to inform him, or... he didn't take this king seriously!"

The tone of these words seemed calm, but it made the back of the people who were kneeling on the ground and listening.

Although the leader guard was a little panicked, he felt a little more lucky when he thought that he was assigned by the emperor to serve as a job.

Restlessly replied, "I dare not! I am just following the emperor's order to protect the prince and ensure the safety of the prince's mansion."

At this time, Xiao Nanfeng couldn't help but narrow his dark eyes dangerously because of these words and snorted coldly.

"What, you are reminding me that you are working for the emperor, a little sixth prince, you don't take it seriously at all, right?"

"Prince forgive me! I dare not!"

"I dare not... I see you. I just came here. I am quite brave. Without my permission, I searched my library privately... Even when the emperor comes here, I have to knock on the door before entering! You, a guard in the team, dare to be so arrogant in front of me!"

Listening to these increasingly chilling words, the leading guard was so scared that he knelt on the ground and no longer dared to talk to the emperor.

"The prince atones! The prince atones his sins! It is because the subordinates do not understand the rules. I also ask the prince to have a large number of them. If you bypass the subordinates this time, the subordinates will never dare to do it again."

The man looked away, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the dark yard. Although he couldn't see the rain outside, the sound of rain in his ears was getting heavier and louder.

After watching for a while, the man said leisurely, "Not everyone has the chance to do something wrong. Since you don't understand the rules in the Linchuan Palace, I will let someone teach you..."

Hearing this, the leading guard lying on the ground was already cold in his heart, and only the nice and cold sound came again.

"Come!"

With a command, within a while, dozens of elite soldiers jumped out of the yard in black, and this battle completely shocked the dozen or so imperial guards. They didn't even know when so many guards came to the Linchuan Palace!

I only heard a "rattle" sound in the rain, and then a neat and orderly sound came.

"See Master!"

The man stood with his hands behind his back, condescending to the slightest, looking at the stunned people below with a contempt.

He immediately ordered, "These people broke into the important land of the royal palace, and the following are the ones who are in trouble, and I will take them all!"

"yes!!"

Seeing this scene and this momentum, the leading guard couldn't help but widen his eyes, and a bold guess flashed through his mind that shocked him!

Sixth Prince, is this trying to rebel?!
