Chapter 422 Solicitation (Part 2)
PS: Thanks to the lord Han Jiangye for the 100,000 reward, it's a shot in the arm!
Chu Li and Lu Yurong walked side by side and slowly arrived at the gate of the mansion.
"Is there anyone from the Holy Cult of Light?" Lu Yurong asked Chu Li.
The charming jade face was close in front of his eyes, and the cold fragrance wafted into his nose, but Chu Li was not tempted, knowing that she couldn't move it: "There is one."
"Really?" Lu Yurong was surprised.
Chu Li said: "A maid, but this maid is very interesting."
"Interesting?" Lu Yurong looked at him with a frown, and said angrily, "What's the point of Guangming Shengjiao?"
Chu Li shook his head and said: "She didn't come to the palace to kill people... I think it's better not to disturb her now. The most important thing is that there is an assassin in King Jing's mansion, and he should be caught first."
"Assassin?" Lu Yurong said, "Isn't it from the Guangming Sacred Church?"
"It's not from the Holy Cult of Light." Chu Li said, "It's an assassin, lurking beside the palace, ready to strike at any moment, and it's about to strike."
"Who?" Lu Yurong asked hurriedly.
Chu Li said: "I will draw a portrait later, just follow the picture to find someone."
"Is there any more?" Lu Yurong asked.
Chu Li smiled: "Prince Jing's Mansion is very well-guarded, it seems that you checked it yourself,...only these two."
Lu Yurong snorted: "Fortunately, my hard work was not wasted!"
Although she is not a member of the palace, she has won the trust of King Jing and the concubine. She has a detached status and great power. Every time she comes to the palace, she has to sort out the palace to eliminate anyone who is suspected. She would rather not let her go.
Chu Li said: "Okay, send it here, I'm going back."
Lu Yurong said, "I'll go back with you to get the portrait."
"Alright." Chu Li said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of other people's gossip?"
"Let's see who dares to chew the tongue!" Lu Yurong said lightly.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head: "You want to take this opportunity to see what's true in Prince An's Mansion!"
Lu Yurong snorted and said, "Aren't you the same?"
Both of them laughed.
After returning to Prince An's Mansion, Chu Li took her straight back to his small courtyard.
After Lu Yurong came in, she looked at Chuli's courtyard and entered the small pavilion in the courtyard.
Chu Li studied the ink himself, and made a painting in one go.
"It's him?" Lu Yurong frowned and looked at the portrait in her hand.
The man in the portrait is handsome and energetic.
"He has an outstanding appearance and is a scribe, so he must be the prince's counselor?" Chu Li smiled and said, "You can tell that he is a wise man at a glance."
"I followed my uncle very early." Lu Yurong looked at him: "If he wanted to assassinate my uncle, he would have had a chance."
"That's not necessarily the case." Chu Li said with a smile: "Maybe he was not sure at that time, and he hadn't done it all the time. Now that he is sure, he may have practiced some kind of magic skill. If you don't do it, he will do it."
"How did you see that?" Lu Yurong asked.
Chu Li smiled but did not answer.
Lu Yurong snorted, knowing that it was impossible to reveal this secret to herself. This might be Chu Li's biggest secret.
"What about the other one?" Lu Yurong asked.
Chu Li shook his head: "The other is not in a hurry."
"That's a disciple of the Guangming Sacred Cult!" Lu Yurong said angrily, "Put the cart before the horse!"
"I believe that if you catch this one, you can catch another one. It's very interesting." Chu Li laughed.
Lu Yurong said coldly: "If something happens to Uncle, your Duke's House will not have a good life!"
She knew that Chu Li's weakness was the Duke Yi's mansion.
Chu Li said: "Don't worry."
"Okay, I'll catch this Tianshi in two days." Lu Yurong said.
"You should check it out first before you start?" Chu Li said.
Lu Yurong gave him a sideways glance, but did not refute.
This Tian Shi is not an ordinary person, he is his uncle's counselor, and he has made a lot of contributions. It is really inappropriate to say that he should be arrested, and he needs to investigate carefully.
"With his mind, he will find out if you move." Chu Li said with a smile: "What should I do, I believe you will have a way."
Lu Yurong was thoughtful.
——
In the evening, King Jing returned to the mansion in the evening glow.
He is tall and burly, handsome, with bushy eyebrows, sharp eyes, calm and calm demeanor, and looks like he is in his forties.
He changed into a loose, soft robe and went to the back garden.
Concubine Lu was sitting in the small pavilion reading, Leng Ying and Lu Yurong were leaning on the railing to feed the fish, Leng Feng was practicing sword in the garden far away.
Princess Lu put down the scroll and greeted her with a smile.
Lu Yurong put her hands together and saluted: "Uncle."
King Jing waved his hand, and sat down opposite Princess Lu: "Is the chief executive of Chu here today?"
"Yes." Concubine Lu smiled and said, "Being famous is worse than meeting him. He is indeed a hero."
"Oh—?" King Jing smiled and said, "It must be good to be able to get into the eyes of the princess."
"I have extensive knowledge and incisive insights." Princess Lu shook her head lightly and smiled, "He is indeed a formidable person comparable to Yu Rong."
"That's really a genius." King Jing smiled and said, "Third brother is really lucky."
Lu Yurong laughed.
King Jing laughed and said, "Yurong, what are you laughing at?"
Lu Yurong smiled and said, "Uncle, what you said is wrong. King An has such luck, but he doesn't have the stamina to tolerate Chu Li!"
"Oh—?" King Jing showed an interested expression: "Didn't he help third brother to do meritorious service a while ago?"
Lu Yurong told the story of Chu Li's murder of ten masters from the Outer Heavens.
King Jing raised his brows, and pondered: "This Chu Li can be regarded as a scheming man. He wants to shovel the threat to the Duke's Mansion in one fell swoop and break the third brother's back. It's accurate and ruthless!"
Lu Yurong smiled and said, "My uncle is still wise. Most people think that this is Chu Li acting on his will, but they don't know his deep meaning...he is steady and ruthless in his actions. If he doesn't move, he must have a plan."
"This Chu Li is indeed capable." King Jing smiled and said, "Can you pull me over?"
"It's not impossible." Lu Yurong pondered.
King Jing leaned forward and hurriedly said, "Is there really hope?"
Lu Yurong said: "King An will definitely not tolerate him, but Xiao Shi is a princess, so Chu Li will not leave voluntarily. He wants to protect Xiao Shi, so he can go to his uncle, which can be regarded as a deterrent to King An,...there is one obstacle, Prince Bao, who needs to be ahead of Prince Bao."
"As far as I know, the third brother is also ambitious, but he hid it well, can he let Chu Li come to help me?" King Jing said with a smile: "Chu Li knows the reality of Prince An's Mansion, and it is said that the prestige is also very high. "
"It depends on uncle's methods." Lu Yurong smiled lightly: "Help Chu Li and pull him over at the critical moment. If he wants to protect the Duke's mansion, he may come to join uncle!"
"Well, it makes sense." King Jing nodded slowly: "This matter needs to be carefully planned, and I will leave it to you, Yu Rong."
"Yes." Lu Yurong agreed.
Concubine Lu glanced at Leng Feng who was practicing in the flower garden, sighed, and shook her head.
"Is this kid making you angry again?" King Jing said with a smile.
Concubine Lu said: "Narrow-minded, he can't tolerate others. This child is too disappointing. Today Chu Li came over, and I asked him to greet him personally. I wanted to turn hostility into friendship, but he is better, and brought Chu Li in through the side door!"
The smile on King Jing's face faded away.
Concubine Lu said: "With such a heart, how can you control talents?"
But those who are talented are mostly proud and upright, not so respectful and docile in their actions, they need a lot of tolerance to tolerate their bad temper, if they can't tolerate them, they can't use their talents.
