this...

These men in black didn't seem to be sent by Zhao Zhong!

Liu Wei thought things were clear: once he found out why Empress Dowager Dong and Zhao Zhong killed people in Niujiazhuang to silence them, he would know the truth about his adoptive parents' murder.

But now, things have become complicated again!

"Commander Lu, you can leave this matter to your own for now. After you return to Jizhou and Youzhou, focus on finding out the current situation of the following people."

"Your Highness, please speak!"

"Liu Bei, Liu Xuande; Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang; Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide; Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong!"

Liu Wei slowly read out the four names.

At this time, Liu Bei and his two brothers participated in suppressing the Yellow Turban Rebellion but did not receive any rewards. They could only stay with Gongsun Zan temporarily to beg for alms.

At this time, Zhao Yun should still be learning martial arts, diligently practicing the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix spear technique, and has not yet descended the mountain.

"I've got it!"

Lu Jianxing didn't ask where these people were.

For him, a name might be enough!

After explaining things to Lu Jianxing, Liu Wei looked at Lu Wenzhao.

"Commander Lu, you're in Luoyang now, so go and do something for me!"

"The matter that Lu Baihu handled now has a key person, namely Zhao Zhong, who is by Empress Dowager Dong's side."

"He was kicked and injured by me today. If we secretly capture him, we might make some new discoveries."

Lu Wenzhao immediately replied, "Your Highness, rest assured, arresting someone in the palace is a trivial matter! I will arrange it tomorrow."

"There are still Mohist masters hidden within the palace!"

"You are being extra careful in your actions; their methods may not be any less effective than yours."

Liu Wei remembered the Mohist master he had talked about with the Princess earlier that day and immediately reminded her.

"Here you go!"

Lu Wenzhao cupped his hands in agreement.

Afterwards, Liu Wei listened to their reports on other intelligence.

An hour later, Liu Wei left Shen Lian behind to continue the discussion, and sent Yang Lian back to his room.

He himself walked back to his palace.

Everything here remains the same, except for a few signs of wear and tear.

The bedroom had been cleaned spotlessly, and the copper oil lamps placed in the four corners of the bedroom illuminated the room brightly.

The large bed with gauze curtains in the middle has also been fitted with brand new bedding.

Six months ago, Liu Wei woke up in this bed, and lying next to him was the stunningly beautiful Diao Chan.

At that time, he and Diao Chan had just returned from their lovemaking in Wushan and were preparing to study the human body structure in detail.

Unexpectedly, he was disturbed by Xiao Guizi, who went to receive the imperial edict and thus began his journey to his fiefdom in Shuofang.

Returning to this familiar place evoked many emotions.

However, at this moment, Zou Ling was already lying in the bedding, warming the bed for Liu Wei.

Her hair cascaded down like a waterfall, revealing her snow-white neck, and her eyes were captivating and alluring.

"Your Highness, it is late. Let me help you to bed!"

A soft, sweet murmur rang out!

Liu Wei's fatigue vanished instantly, and a surge of immense power welled up within him. He strode forward!

Then go inside!
