Chapter 167: Once the arrow is shot, it cannot be retrieved

"Zhou Hongjing hasn't woken up yet, and Zhou Jiaming doesn't dare to make any moves, so Xiao Hulu went to keep an eye on the Ma Mansion."

Little Gourd muttered.

It's not stupid. If there's no movement in Zhou's mansion, what's the point of watching the video?

Of course it’s the Ma Mansion where more plays are watched.

Anyway, as for the matter between Zhou Jiaming and Ma Ruyu, no matter whether we keep an eye on the Zhou Mansion or the Ma Mansion, we will be able to get the same result.

"Oh, what's the Ma Mansion doing?"

Chu Qinshu continued to ask, holding on to her confused thoughts.

"Matthew Li has been in the study the whole time. He doesn't know about Ma Ruyu's situation yet."

Little Gourd replied.

"Oh, didn't you say he was going to cause trouble? What was he going to cause? Also, do you know how many hours of sleep a baby like me needs to grow up healthily?"

Chu Qinshu was a little annoyed. She was so sleepy but couldn't sleep because of the noise. This feeling was really...

"Master, you are not an ordinary baby. You don't have to sleep all the time like them."

Xiao Hulu paused the video and started to argue seriously with Chu Qinshu.

The Lingquan is such a heaven-defying existence, is its owner pretending not to know?

Since drinking spiritual springs can make you grow taller, why do you need to sleep?

Chu Qinshu: I’m just simply sleepy, is that okay?

"Master, when your father returns to the East Palace tonight, please be careful on the road. Little Gourd can only remind you so much..."

Because the video has not been finished yet.

Although Chu Qinshu was already confused, she still heard clearly what Xiao Hulu said.

But she knew that Xiao Hulu would definitely watch the whole video.

When she and her father return to the East Palace, she will ask Xiao Hulu in advance and she will have an idea in her mind.

In the residence of the Minister of Rites, although Matthew Li was not frightened sick by watching the execution, his spirit was visibly weakened.

"Has anything happened in Yuzhou?"

Matthew Li was asking about the assassination of Jiang Boqing.

"No, I chased him into the mountains and couldn't find him."

The man in black said.

"Keep searching. We must find him alive or dead. We must not let him return to Beijing alive."

Matthew Li's arrow has been shot and there is no turning back.

After watching the execution, he had nightmares every night.

In the dream, the neck that had been chopped several times but not broken was always against his face when it was lifted up.

However, it would be more difficult for him to give up halfway than to kill him, since he had been planning for half his life.

"Pass this secret letter to the young lady."

After the man in black left, Matthew Li immediately wrote a secret letter, put it in a bamboo tube, and handed it to the person who flashed out from the darkness.

He is a civil servant, but he wants to do big things, so it is understandable that he has secret guards.

After the secret guard left, he sat in the study and stared at a painting on the wall in a trance.

Sixteen years ago, his eldest daughter married into the Ning Prince's Mansion and became the Ning Prince's principal wife.

At that time, the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian had both visited him privately.

The Queen Mother asked him to help Prince Ning, and Concubine Xian asked him to cooperate with Prince Ning to help Prince Huai...

However, no one had ever told him whether the legend of the ancestors of Cheng'en Marquis Mansion was true?

......

After Princess Ning received the secret letter from Matthew Li, she immediately wrote another secret letter without hesitation and put it in the bamboo tube.

However, she did not let the secret guard deliver the letter. Instead, she took a pigeon out of the bird cage and tied the bamboo tube to its thin legs.

"Go, go to the East Palace."

In the East Palace, there is a woman who is obsessed with Prince Ning.

She didn't want the woman to do anything unless it was absolutely necessary.

Her position can only be hers.

However, Prince Ning said that the backyard of Prince Ning's mansion was under her control, and after the matter was accomplished, she would still be the most powerful woman.

He also brought all the women who helped him do things into her hands.

The news they received from different places was also gathered here by her.

Being able to do this, I think Prince Ning must be sincere to her.

The carrier pigeon flew farther and farther, until it could no longer be seen. Princess Ning then left the window to look for Zhou Jiayi.

Because Zhou Hongjing accidentally ruined Matthew Li's affairs, Zhou Jiayi has not had an easy time recently.

What Zhou Hongjing didn't know, Zhou Jiayi didn't know either.

It's not that Prince Ning didn't tell her, but she was just like her father Zhou Hongjing, only slightly smart.

They can lend a hand when things are about to be accomplished, but before they succeed, they think more than anyone else.

Such a person is not suitable to know any secrets.

......

Chu Qinshu was sleeping soundly, Chu Chengyi's hands were shaking as he reviewed memorials, and Emperor Yongping was thinking about playing chess alone.

Little Gourd was watching a video in Space and saw Matthew Li sending a secret letter to Princess Ning, so it quickly opened Princess Ning's video to watch.

Seeing Princess Ning sending a letter to the Eastern Palace via pigeon, it quickly opened the Eastern Palace...

Oops, Donggong is not a person's name, how can I click to view it?

The trouble is, it only saw the content of the secret letter written by Matthew Li and Princess Ning, but did not see any names mentioned in it.

The little gourd was shaking its head anxiously, and the two gourd leaves could hardly withstand its shaking.

'Stop what happened in Yuzhou.'

This is the content of the secret letter from Princess Ning.

The time has come, and the event has also come.

Who is Keren?

Who has the ability to stop what happened in Yuzhou?

It must be the master’s father.

But who can convince the master's father to stop Yuzhou's affairs?

Moreover, there were only two words on Matthew Li's secret letter: "female temptation".

It was because it saw these two words that it hurriedly told its owner to remind her father to be careful on the way back to the East Palace.

It even thought that Matthew Li was trying to use the beauty trick to seduce its master's father.

After reading Princess Ning's secret letter, I realized that it was not what I understood at all.

When Chu Qinshu woke up, the two gourd leaves on the small gourd head not only drooped, but also curled up.

If you don’t know, you might think it was because it was exposed to the scorching sun for a whole day without being watered.

"Little gourd, what's wrong with you?"

She had never seen Little Gourd like this before, and she was quite frightened when she saw it for the first time.

"Master, you are awake now. Please take a look at the meaning of these two secret letters."

In order to reduce the time Chu Qinshu spent watching videos, Xiaohulu directly took screenshots of the videos and saved them.

Both screenshots are 360-degree enlarged versions of the secret message.

The content above is clear.

"Who is it for?"

Chu Qinshu looked at both screenshots and frowned.

Although Xiao Hulu has not told her who wrote the secret letter, it goes without saying that the person who wanted to stop Yuzhou's plan was either Matthew Li or King Ning.

"The secret letter was sent to the East Palace, but I don't know who received it.

If I knew who it was, I wouldn't be so anxious. After all, they were going after your father, the hardest-to-save cannon fodder."

The reason why the little gourd was so anxious that its leaves were wilting was because Chu Chengyi's fate was related to its mission.

The plot had clearly gone off track, and it thought it could rest easy, but it didn't expect such an accident to happen.

It intuitively feels that the word "惑" is not a good word, and it may even be fatal.
