Mengfei's smile is very charming

Chapter 563 The person behind the scenes is...

"Father, did they say what time they would come to fetch gunpowder?"

Yue Qinghuan looked up at the sky.

Twilight and dusk.

There is only a small amount of time left before night falls.

Yueliucheng said: "It should be soon, good girl, do you really want to follow? I'm worried about my father."

"I will protect the princess well, please don't worry too much, King Yong'an."

Li Zixuan smiled gently.

……

Shen time.

A group of people dressed as farmers entered Yuefu through the back door.

Because Yueliu City had already explained it before, the servants led them directly to the warehouse where the gunpowder was stored.

They took out the gunpowder and packed them into wooden boxes on donkey carts, disguised as fruits and vegetables.

After the group of people left the mansion, Yue Qinghuan and Li Zixuan followed cautiously.

They were very careful, going around and around many times, and finally drove the donkey cart into a narrow alley in Yunxifang.

"Most of these places are post houses where envoys from foreign countries live temporarily." Li Zixuan said to Yue Qinghuan in a low voice, "I don't know which enemy country is behind the scenes this time."

Yue Qinghuan nodded, and seeing the donkey cart driving into the back door of a house, she lifted it up lightly and climbed into the wall.

In a courtyard with red flowers and green trees, there are many gunpowder bags that are incompatible with the beautiful scenery.

The smell of sulfur is extremely pungent.

Many men with tall noses and deep eyes are carefully assembling and stuffing explosives into some inconspicuous items.

Yue Qinghuan recognized that those items were things that would be used in dragon boat races, and there was nothing unusual about them from the outside.

The illuminated dragon boats used in the race on the canal tonight are different from those of ordinary people - the royal family and nobles, very few people can row the boats like the working people.

Therefore, tonight's dragon boats are actually transformed from painted boats, and the main thing is to control the rudder.

Although it is not as passionate as shirtless rowing, it is gorgeous and grand and highly ornamental.

At that time, as long as these people light the fuse, the light dragon boat with complicated structure will definitely catch fire and get out of control.

The first to bear the brunt are the noble children of various aristocratic families who manipulate the dragon boat race.

Once the out-of-control dragon boat rushes to the shore, it will cause extremely heavy casualties, chaos, and even spread to the emperor's viewing platform.

In that case, sending assassins to assassinate the emperor is very likely to succeed.

So far, Yue Qinghuan has almost figured out the whole conspiracy.

But... She always felt that something was missing.

Bypassing the men working, Yue Qinghuan and Li Zixuan quickly passed the veranda and approached the side hall.

A conversation suddenly came from the side hall.

Yue Qinghuan and Li Zixuan stopped immediately.

"Hmph, after tonight, I finally don't have to look at the faces of those dog officials in Daxia anymore!"

"We, Jialan, are also a great country, but after a few defeats, we are about to become a vassal of the Great Xia. How can we swallow this tone!"

"Instead of being controlled by Daxia, it's better to switch to Xiliang!"

... Xiliang?
Yue Qinghuan grasped the word.

These few people were talking, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and they were about to push the door out.

Yue Qinghuan and Li Zixuan glanced at each other, and at the same time jumped onto the roof tiles.

"It seems that this incident was planned by the people of Jialan Kingdom." Li Zixuan whispered, "They usually behave submissively to Da Xia, but they have hidden such great ambitions unexpectedly."

Yue Qinghuan shook her head lightly, "The Jialan Kingdom was used as a weapon. Listen to their last words. The person behind the scenes is Xiliang."
