Afterwards, the Yamen's arrester caught Ding Feng, and he was imprisoned in Fengdu Prison. Ping Wei and He Zhou packed their luggage and rode back to Linjing.

Originally, he could have arrived before tonight, but because he brought two prisoners with him, Ping Wei's hand was injured again, so he could only choose to take a carriage, with He Zhou driving the horse in front, and a few policemen accompanying him.

After arriving in Linjing, it was already close to Maoshi, and the group was very tired. Qi Zheng stood at the gate of the city to meet him personally. When he saw Ping Wei, he came up to meet him, and whispered anxiously, "Your Highness, something happened in Nanling!"

"I know," Ping Wei got out of the carriage, first asked Qi Zheng to lock the two prisoners inside to Dali Temple, and then walked on the street with him, "There is a prisoner inside who is the spy who sneaked in, and he told Dong Hu They will attack Nanling."

"Isn't Your Highness going to seal this time to investigate the case of drug theft?" Although Qi Zheng stayed in Linjing, he also secretly cared about Pingwei. Five carts of medicine?"

Ping Wei shook his head, "It's a long story, you answer me first, where was Nanling bombed?"

"It's the area at the junction of Nanling and Linjing." Although there was no one on the street at night, Qi Zheng glanced around cautiously, and whispered in Ping Wei's ear, "What happened an hour ago, I just closed it. news of arrival."

Qi Zhengneng knew it, so Emperor Chong must know it too, Ping Wei nodded, "I have to enter the palace now."

"Is the officer with you?" Qi Zheng asked.

"No, you go and do something for me first," Ping Wei looked at him, with hesitation in his eyes, "Liang Jingzhao and Guan Yue were sent to Nanling by me, counting the time, they may have arrived."

Qi Zheng was shocked, "Young Master Liang and Lord Guan are in Nanling? Why?"

"Nanling still has a lot of Donghu's secret works, we need to find them out," Ping Wei replied, "Are you familiar with General Liang and Master Guan Shanguan? I am in a hurry to enter the palace and may not have time to meet them. Can you tell them for me? "

"..." This is not a good job. Qi Zhengzheng showed his embarrassment. He had already foreseen how thunderous and furious those two would be after knowing that his son was in Nanling at this time. Master Qi sighed ,"good...."

Pingwei smiled slightly when he saw his sudden downcast appearance, "It's okay, I'll go to Nanling later."

"Your Highness is going too?" Qi Zheng asked in surprise.

"Well, after all, I let them pass, and I have to ensure their safety," Ping Wei said casually, and quickened his steps, "I won't talk to you, I have to go to the palace quickly, can you get it?" A carriage?"

The second prince, Xie Lianzheng, was still awake at this time, and was discussing with his aides about the new young talents who came out of the palace examination, and discussing which ones to recruit into the banner.

After learning that Nanling was bombed, he quickly informed the staff in front of him.

"Why did something happen to the well-behaved Nanling? Is there any movement from Donghu?" He asked.

"It's very likely so," an aide replied, "There is news that the Fifth Prince Xie Xu went to Fengdu before, and the investigation is related to Donghu."

"Didn't he investigate the case of Ning Yao's drug theft?" Xie Lianzheng frowned, and after thinking for a while, he asked quickly, "Do you think I'm going to the palace to see my father?"

"No," said the aide, "Your Majesty didn't summon you, and you don't know what reason you used to find him, Your Majesty. The Nanling was bombed. You should know that it was His Majesty. You are just a prince. Don't worry too much about it."

Lian Zheng listened, and nodded slowly, but his face was still serious. He thought for a while, and asked, "Is Ping Wei back?"

"I'll have someone take a look."

"Ah."

Concentric Hall.

The emperor was dressed in normal clothes, with his long hair tied back casually, as if he had just gotten out of bed.

Standing in front of him, Ping Wei told everything that happened in Fengdu in the past few days, including the grievances between You Buqing and him.

"Su Yu is locked up in Dali Temple now?" Emperor Chong asked.

"Correct."

"Do you think Donghu will attack Daqi in the future?"

"Yes, they cut off the connection between Linjing City and Nanling tonight, which proves that they are ready to go. Maybe they will attack Nanling tomorrow. I have already asked Liang Jingzhao and Guan Yue to go there to find out the remaining details." Ping said in a low voice.

Emperor Chong looked at him for a while, "You sent a letter to Nanling before, and they should also take precautions."

"But it's still not enough," Ping Wei said, "Nanling is one of the major capitals of Daqi, if something unexpected happens, the city of Linjing will be at stake."

"how do you feel?"

"I will go to Nanling later to assist General Qin in defending against foreign enemies," Ping Wei said warmly.

"So you have made all the arrangements. Is that what you mean when you come here tonight?" Emperor Chong looked at him without any fluctuation in his tone.

Ping slightly lowered his head, "I dare not, please Your Majesty to decide."

Emperor Chong did not speak, and the two were quiet for a while.

"Xie Xu, do you think you have investigated the case of gunpowder theft?"

"No," Ping Wei said, "I have doubts about one of them."

"Tell me?" Emperor Chong looked at him.

"You Buqing is an ordinary person with no background. He was only a small clerk in Pingzhou. Why did he suddenly become the governor of the capital, and no one noticed that he had changed his name. I was wondering... ..Who is the person behind him? Who has the ability to make him rise to the top, and who tacitly allows him to contact me."

"Who do you think?" Emperor Chong looked at him calmly.

At this moment, Pingwei raised his head and looked at the unfathomable person opposite, "Is that you, Your Majesty."
