Chapter 992 Returning to the Advanced Space Outside the Mansion
Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue exchanged a smile, then naturally took hands and strolled along the street toward the north of the city.
They should go back too.
Leng Rongyue thought that in a little while, Xiao Jingyu would be going to court, and her maternal grandfather and two uncles would also be going to court.
The older brother is going to work at the Dali Temple.
The third brother was heading to the Imperial Guard's garrison to meet Tang Jin, the head of the Ministry of Rites, and Fan Youxian, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, and lead a hundred-man team selected by the Imperial Guard to carry out his first mission after being promoted three ranks!
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu walked forward hand in hand...
Suddenly remembering something, Leng Rongyue turned to look at Xiao Jingyu, who was dressed as an old commoner, and asked, "Where is that place that Dongwei pig-head didn't go because it was getting light...?"
Whose mansion is it heading to?
Who is it going to find?
It was heading in the north of the city.
According to the layout of the capital, the northern part of the city was mostly occupied by the residences of aristocratic families or high-ranking officials.
Those who own a house in the north of the city must not be from humble families.
Judging from this, the place that pig-headed Dongwei is heading to is probably... the residence of some important official in the court, right?
After hearing Leng Rongyue's speculation, Xiao Jingyu nodded.
"That should be true."
Tonight, that idiot from the Eastern Committee first went to the home of Qin Lu, the deputy commander of the Five Cities Military Command, and then went to the place where Xia Qinian kept his mistress, simply because both places were in the east of the city and were relatively close to the small courtyard where that beast from the Eastern Committee was hiding.
As for who they're looking for in the north of the city...
I estimate that there are only a few people involved! For example... the Second Assistant Minister Jiang Ciche, and Marquis Guo Yuan of Dongping.
Their official residence was located in the east of the city.
Moreover, both of them were officials who had become quite close to Xiao Jingyi in the past year or two.
"Secondary Assistant Jiang Ciche... Marquis of Dongping Guo Yuan..."
Leng Rongyue pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you sure it's one of these two companies?"
Xiao Jingyu nodded, "Most likely."
Because I received information that these two were among the officials who sent their children and grandchildren away from the capital.
If their descendants are also kidnapped by the beasts of the Eastern Wei Kingdom...
Then, wouldn't those beasts in East Venezuela make a fuss about this?
They naturally wanted to meet with these officials and try to subdue and control them before their father's death!
When the time comes to use them, these high-ranking officials of Jingyue will become the daggers of Dongwei, betraying Jingyue!
The beasts of East Venezuela are as beastly as ever!
They are using underhanded methods to coerce and win over Jingyue's court officials;
They're also planning to assassinate the key officials of Jingyue who they can't win over...
snort!
Wolfish ambitions are a timeless truth!
Leng Rongyue thought of the future and gritted her teeth in anger.
After calming her anger slightly, Leng Rongyue gave a cold laugh and said, "It's just a small, beastly country called Dongwei. It's nothing to worry about!"
As the saying goes: When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.
Nowadays, there are no traitors like those in East Venezuela, who, under the guise of making the country better, deceive the people, sell out the country, and allow these East Venezuelan beasts to run rampant, turning the once beautiful country into a place where ghosts and demons are everywhere...
Fortunately, there is only one ambitious but incompetent prince, Xiao Jingyi, who has yet to achieve anything significant. No matter how much trouble he causes, he can't cause any real trouble!
Besides, it's not like this now..."
Leng Rongyue suddenly stopped talking and did not continue.
Xiao Jingyu could see that Leng Rongyue was filled with anger and hatred. He tightened his grip on Leng Rongyue's hand and said, "Yue'er, don't be angry!"
No matter how many brilliant schemes they have, let's see how many they can actually use.
Finally, we'll see if they can make it back to their animal dens alive!
Leng Rongyue nodded in agreement. "Let's not talk about these beasts from the East anymore. Let's get back as soon as possible!"
In a little while, those who were supposed to attend court will go, and Third Brother should also set off!
Xiao Jingyu nodded, and the two quickened their pace, heading towards the Duke of Anguo's residence.
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu left home at midnight and have not yet returned.
In a little while, Fu Mingxiu will also be leaving Beijing on official business.
For the next few days, Fu Mingxiu will have to deal with those venomous and wicked beasts from the Eastern Wei, so how can the Anguo Duke's family sleep peacefully!
Just after the fourth watch drum sounded, the Duke and his wife, the eldest master and his wife, the second master and his wife, Fu Mingjun and Fu Mingxiu had all tidied up and arrived at the flower hall of the second hall.
Fu Mingxiu carried all the treasures that Leng Rongyue had given him with him;
Duke Anguo Fu Peng, along with his eldest master Fu Yinglan and second master Fu Yingze, patiently gave instructions from the side, providing all the tips they could think of!
Fu Mingxiu listened attentively the whole time, nodding...nodding...
The crowd gathered around Fu Mingxiu, giving her instructions, while also worrying about Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu, who had not yet returned.
As they talked, they kept glancing outside...
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu did not intend to enter the Duke of Anguo's mansion openly through the main gate, but instead went directly around to the back corner gate in the back garden of the Duke of Anguo's mansion.
This is a long alleyway formed by the long walls of the two mansions, the Duke of Anguo's Mansion and the Marquis of Huaining's Mansion.
Aside from gardeners using this side gate to add flowers and trees to the garden or clear weeds, this alleyway is almost deserted at other times.
Leng Rongyue looked around and listened, but there was no sound.
Xiao Jingyu held her hand tightly the entire time without letting go. With a thought, Leng Rongyue directly led Xiao Jingyu into the space.
