For several days, the capital seemed to be calm.

In fact, the minions of the Imperial City Department have spread all over the corners, and all the officials in the court are under their surveillance, and every move will be gathered and spread to Li Changshou's ears every day.

Needless to say, he was just putting on a show.

The thief is calling for a thief, and he can't catch himself, so he can only put on a posture for the imperial concubine and the emperor to see.

Let them know that I am very caring and filial.

Who would have thought that through the Imperial City Department, they would discover the secrets of many ministers in the court.

For example, the minister of the Ministry of Rites is a great Confucian outside the world, but secretly he is a master at picking ashes.

Another example is that Mr. Yin Xu, the governor of the capital, has nothing to criticize, but the son of his family has the same hobbies as the prince, and often gives hats to his father.

Also like...

In short, there are too many to count. Seeing this information, Li Changshou felt that the world was too chaotic!
On this day, Li Changshou left the palace under Lin Luoxi's reluctant gaze, and the carriage of the Imperial City Secretary had already been waiting for a long time outside.

"Your Highness."

Seeing Li Changshou going out, Gu Fan greeted him directly.

"Is there any movement over there?"

As the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department, Gu Fan didn't need to worry about such errands, so the reason why he came to greet him in person was naturally important.

Li Changshou also knew it well, and said directly: "Get in the car and talk."

The two got into the carriage, accompanied by guards from the Imperial City Division, walking on the bustling streets of the capital, listening to the commotion outside, the two inside the carriage began to plot.

"Your Highness, people have been staring at the Xiao Mansion for the past few days, and today I found a carriage leaving the Prince's Mansion. Although it is very inconspicuous, I can confirm that the person inside is His Highness the Prince."

"To the Xiao Mansion?"

"Yes!"

Others didn't know what Li Changshou wanted to do, but Gu Fan did.

He could even guess Li Changshou's purpose, to trip up Xiao Pang, the commander of the Forbidden Army, and then find a way to intervene to control the entire Forbidden Army in his hands.

And he is actually the sharp knife, the best blade to stab Xiao Pang.

"After waiting for a few days, there is finally some movement, so get ready to do it."

Li Changshou closed his eyes and nodded. It wasn't that he was tired, it was just a mixed blessing to pay the public rations every day. He couldn't help but feel that the demon girl of the Demon Sect was deadly, and of course he also enjoyed it.

Recently, he was still thinking about whether he could raise the strength of his little wife to the level of a little grandmaster.

"Yes!"

Gu Fan took the order, but before he left, he heard Li Changshou ask.

"Can you do it?"

This question made him pause, and finally replied respectfully, "Your highness understands what to do, please rest assured, Your Highness!"

……

In Shouwang's mansion, there was a ghostly figure.

When the maids saw it, they quickly showed fearful expressions.

"Go down."

Eunuch Cao waved his hand, almost all the people in Shouwang Mansion were personally arranged by the noble concubine, and most of them had a background in the magic sect, so he came here without any hindrance.

Soon he came to the backyard, and someone was already waiting for him.

"The old slave pays homage to the saint."

Eunuch Cao stepped forward, and the person waiting for him was Lin Luoxi, Princess of Shou. Of course, in private, she was still a contemporary saint of the Demon Sect, with an extremely noble status.

Lin Luoxi has returned to her aloof appearance, and nodded lightly upon hearing this, "Master asked you to come?"

"Back to the Holy Maiden, Your Majesty wishes to know about His Highness's recent movements."

It turned out that these days since Li Changshou got married, he rarely went to the palace to pay his respects, and the imperial concubine was obviously dissatisfied.

At the same time, I also want to know the specific trend, so I let Eunuch Cao go out of the palace for a walk.

Lin Luoxi naturally understood, and sneered in her heart, she knew who her master was, and she had no mother-child relationship at all.

She didn't think there was a problem before, but since she fell in love with Li Changshou, her mentality has changed.

"His Highness has been busy investigating the assassins these few days. He is either in the Imperial City Department or back to the palace every day. He is worried and tired. Maybe he forgot to pay his respects to the master."

A woman, once her heart changes, she will naturally turn her elbows outward. Lin Luoxi embodies this very well.

The point is that she didn't lie, in fact she did.

But in terms of details...

"The old slave understands, and will go back and explain to the empress."

Eunuch Cao nodded with a smile. He would never have thought that Lin Luoxi in front of him would betray the Demon Sect. After all, everyone knew the methods of the Demon Sect, so he would never dare to turn his back on him.

Besides, who would have thought that in just a few days, Li Changshou broke through the will and Taoism of the majestic demon saint and dyed her own color, and no one would believe it.

"His Royal Highness is indeed filial to the master. It can be seen that he cares about the master very much, so he has been searching desperately for the past few days, and he has already got some clues."

Lying and bragging for one's husband are the essential qualities of a good wife and mother.

Lin Luoxi said the coldest words, but her heart was filled with warmth.

Eunuch Cao didn't doubt that he was there, so he quickly left and returned to the palace.

Looking at the empty backyard, Lin Luoxi returned to the house without staying for long, "Husband, there is a concubine here to hide it for you."

……

Eunuch Cao left Shouwang Mansion and got into a very unremarkable carriage.

The driver pulled the reins without saying a word, and headed back towards the palace.

But no one would have thought that there was another person in the carriage.

"Miss."

Eunuch Cao lowered his eyebrows and was extremely respectful.

It turned out that Concubine Zhou quietly left the palace, but she didn't show up, she just stayed in the carriage and didn't show up.

"Shou'er isn't at the house?"

The imperial concubine changed into a more ordinary casual dress, which was not as gorgeous as in the palace, but no matter how rough the linen clothes were, it was hard to hide her stately appearance. Fortunately, she didn't show up, otherwise, I don't know how many men in the streets and alleys would be haunted by their dreams. Lovesickness.

Eunuch Cao was castrated in the palace at a young age, so he was able to resist the peerless charm of the imperial concubine.

Hearing this, he was taken aback, then nodded and said: "His Royal Highness went to the Imperial City Department early in the morning, and the old slave has already confirmed with the saint."

"What did Xi'er say?"

"The saint said that His Highness has been chasing clues to the assassin of that night for the past few days. It was very hard work to go out early and return late, so he forgot to enter the palace and greet the empress. It is also His Highness's filial piety, and he wants to catch the assassin as soon as possible."

Eunuch Cao didn't add fuel and vinegar, but just reported the facts.

The noble concubine nodded lightly and a smile appeared on her lips, "Shou'er is filial, I thought he had a wife and forgot his mother."

"Your Majesty, His Highness is now enlightened. Judging from his movements in the past few days, he is very concerned about your safety."

The corners of the imperial concubine's lips showed a charming smile, "It seems that in the future, I should treat him well and make up for the debts of these years."

"Niangniang Shengming!"

Eunuch Cao quickly flattered him. As for the fact that the concubine asked him to arrange a manpower and wanted to put King Shou to death, he was smart enough not to point it out.

The carriage was bumping, and the imperial concubine was also a little lost in thought, not knowing what she was thinking.

It happened that the carriage passed by the Huangcheng Division, looking at the gate of the Huangcheng Division's mansion, the imperial concubine suddenly asked: "Is there any news from the Huangcheng Division?"

"Back to your mother, the Imperial City Secretary has been doing a lot in the past few days. According to the news from the manpower arranged by the old slave, it seems that His Highness is going to attack the commander of the Imperial Army."

"who?"

"Commander of the Forbidden Army, Xiao Pang, General Xiao."

Eunuch Cao lowered his eyebrows and did not dare to hide anything, "In addition, this old servant confirmed this matter with the saint today. His Highness does have the idea of ​​doing something, and he said that he has found some clues."

"Bullshit!"

The imperial concubine suddenly snorted softly, and her confused face became serious, "He's just messing around!"

Eunuch Cao quickly lowered his head and dared not make a sound.

"Xiao Pang has a powerful army in his hands, and he has won the trust of His Majesty. There will be no results for him to attack Xiao Pang!"

There are only so many important ministers in the capital who hold real power, and the imperial concubine naturally knows which of these people can be touched and which ones cannot.

As soon as he heard that it was the commander of the imperial army, he immediately frowned and looked serious, "Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter earlier?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, it's the old slave who didn't think carefully!"

Eunuch Cao hurriedly knelt down on the carriage, he was a grand master in the realm of a little master, but he didn't have the slightest demeanor of a master.

In fact, Eunuch Cao himself felt a little disapproving in his heart, and felt strange for the concubine's overreaction.

"The old slave is thinking that the empress has been wooing Xiao Pang over the years, but this person has never given a clear answer, and has been circling between the prince and the empress, so seeing that His Highness wants to take Xiao Pang, the old slave thinks it is okay. Take advantage of this opportunity to beat this person well."

These words are not an excuse, they are indeed from the heart of Eunuch Cao.

However, he did not expect that the imperial concubine's expression turned even worse after hearing this, "You bastard! When will it be your turn to decide such an important matter?"

"It's the old slave, damn it!"

"Don't you know that Xiao Pang is already a master? Shou'er doesn't know what to do to find him, in case something happens..."

The noble concubine's face became more and more cold, and the corners of Eunuch Cao's mouth twitched. How come I didn't see you caring so much about His Royal Highness Shou Wang before?

She still thought about killing King Shou with her own hands and framing the prince. Why is she acting like a loving mother now?

But Eunuch Cao dare not say this, even if the noble concubine is not as good as him in martial arts now, but the status of the noble concubine in the Demon Sect...

"Go, arrange someone to secretly protect Shou'er!"

The noble concubine snorted the order, and Eunuch Cao would naturally not disobey it, and immediately arranged it after returning to the palace, and even prepared to hide his identity in person at that time, and go to take care of one or two.

……

【Ding!The imperial concubine's concern for the host has increased, rewarding 5000 system points]

People sit in the car, blessings come from heaven?
Li Changshou was sitting in the carriage from a distance, looking at the Xiao Mansion not far away, but he didn't expect a prompt from the system suddenly.

"what's going on?"

He hasn't seen the imperial concubine for several days, besides he has something to do, and secondly, he really has a wife and forgets his mother, the little witch in the house is so sweet, who wants to talk to the old witch in the palace?
Ahem, Li Changshou withdrew his thoughts, and then opened the system to understand it.

He only saw that the relationship value between the imperial concubine and him had reached 89 points, and it had increased so much without knowing it, even he himself didn't expect it.

"Did I do anything to make the imperial concubine happy recently?"

After thinking about it, it was probably a foreshadowing that he deliberately buried, so that Lin Luoxi deliberately told the imperial concubine that he was busy catching assassins to fulfill his filial piety.

Other than that, he couldn't think of anything else, he was a filial son who was full of rebellion.

He is waiting.

And at this time, the Xiao Manor.

"The kindness of His Royal Highness, I appreciate it."

Xiao Pang didn't go to the camp today, but was at home in casual clothes, and the prince's sudden and secret visit made him faintly feel something wrong and dangerous.

But he can't drive people away openly, he still wants to fish in this muddy water.

"General Xiao, I still hope that you will think about it carefully. The current situation in the court has become difficult to maintain. The demon concubine manipulated the government to confuse the father. Many ministers dared not speak out. Only a pillar of the country like General Xiao can be with her." I hope General Xiao can give me a helping hand!"

The prince is sincere, and he has been wooing Xiao Pang over the past few years, not just because Li Changshou asked him to do so.

It's just that he still doesn't understand how Li Changshou is going to help him. The Xiao Pang in front of him is simply a loach, and he can't catch him if he doesn't hold back.

"I can understand the prince's concern, it's just a matter of loyalty to the emperor, I don't want to get involved in the court battle."

Xiao Pang had a serious face, sonorous and powerful, with the air of a general, but he was sneering in his heart. It would not be so easy to win him over, and he would still be up for grabs if there were not enough bargaining chips to impress him.

He has been in the position of commander of the imperial army for several years, and he has long wanted to go one step further and win the position of Minister of the Ministry of War.

It's not even just the Minister of the Ministry of War, he has even greater ambitions in his heart!

"General Xiao, the Secretary of the Ministry of War is very old."

The prince was not unprepared, but Xiao Pang kept his eyes closed and continued to make decisions. Now that the concubine and the prince are trying to win him over, his goal is to gain benefits from both sides.

"Prince, please go back."

This is the eviction order.

The prince had no choice but to say goodbye and leave. When he quietly left the mansion, he glanced at a carriage not far away, and then left.

This scene was naturally informing Li Changshou that it was time to do something, and the two had already discussed it in secret.

as predicted.

Not long after the prince left, a large number of people from the Imperial City Department appeared directly in front of Xiao's residence.

"The Imperial City Division handles the case, and the idlers wait to give way!"
