Empress Fenghua

Chapter 72 Marching Route
After the farewell banquet, Ye Congjia returned to the palace and went to Ning Huayan's Huayan Pavilion.Ye Congjia was slightly drunk, with a strange blush on his face.Seeing Ye Congjia come to her room, Huayan had a bright smile on her face.

"The lord is back so early! No one has informed me, I should prepare some hangover soup!" Ning Huayan hurried over to take Ye Congjia's cloak and put it on the screen.

Ye Congjia leaned against the table, "It's just a farewell banquet, just a formality. We're leaving tomorrow, and we won't be back too late, otherwise we'll have to delay the march!"

Ning Huayan walked behind Ye Congjia, and gently squeezed his shoulders, "I have already prepared the prince's armor, and the prince will be very heroic when he wears it tomorrow morning!"

Ye Congjia nodded in satisfaction, "Although this expedition is just to suppress bandits, it is very meaningful. Father trusts me so much, so there must be no mistakes."

Ning Huayan smiled ingratiatingly, "My lord is highly skilled in martial arts and proficient in strategy, what could be wrong? What's more, it's just a bunch of grassroots bandits!"

"Hey?" Ye Congjia shook his head, "You don't know that the terrain of Xiaoyao Village is complicated, and the grass bandits are full of tricks, which is far from being as simple as you imagined. What's more, although the journey is short, it is extremely difficult to walk, and the terrain in Jingzhou is dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be buried in the flood!"

"Ah? Didn't it mean that the flood has been brought under control? Will something really happen?" Ning Huayan was shocked and asked with concern.

Ye Congjia nodded, "The flood is only temporarily under control, and there is no guarantee that the water level will not rise and break the dam. But..." Ye Congjia smiled triumphantly, "This king has already planned the marching route!"

Ye Congjia took out a brocade silk from his bosom, opened it, and found a marching route map inside. "No, look, this road passes Huaishan Mountain. Although the road is muddy and difficult to walk, it will definitely get rid of the threat of flooding!"

Ning Huayan narrowed her eyes and said with a smile, "My lord is really far-sighted, but did I hear that my lord is going to leave from Xiangshui?"

Ye Congjia smiled mysteriously, "What do you know? This is called cheating! The news was released by me. The marching route is so confidential. If it is spread so easily, I will die before I reach Xiaoyao Village in Jingzhou to suppress the bandits. ?" Ye Congjia suppressed her smile, thought for a moment, then suddenly rubbed the brocade and threw it into the wastebasket beside her.

"What are you doing, my lord? How can you throw away such an important thing?" Ning Huayan was puzzled, and hurried to pick it up, but was stopped by Ye Congjia.

"What do you know, how many people are watching this night! The night is long and full of dreams, so it's hard to guarantee that no one will come to steal it." Ye Congjia said pretending to be mysterious.

Ning Huayan was a little puzzled, "Ah? If someone comes to steal it, you should put it away properly! The prince trusts me, so I put the brocade silk in the cabinet and lock it with a big lock for safety. some, okay?"

Ye Congjia snorted coldly, "The most dangerous place is the safest place! Still here is more effective than any number of locks!"

Ning Huayan nodded suspiciously, followed Ye Congjia into the inner room to rest...

On the eaves, there was a cold light in the eyes of a black figure.With a rope locked around his waist, he slowly entered the room bit by bit, hanging upside down, and reached out to take out the marching route map from the wastebasket.Light-footed, quick-moving, unnoticed...

Yongwangfu.

Hua Zhong frowned at the brocade, raised his eyes and asked, "Are you sure this is the marching route map that King Cong still has in the wastebasket?"

The man in black kneeling on the ground said in a low voice, "I'm sure! This subordinate redraws it according to the road map. I'm afraid King Cong will notice it. After copying it, I put the original picture back immediately! I dare you Guaranteed with my life, there will be no mistakes or omissions."

Yong Jia frowned slightly, "Ling Yun has always done things safely, so there must be no mistakes. Do you think there is something wrong?"

Hua Zhong stood up and stacked the brocades indiscriminately, with a puzzled look on his face, "This route map is ingeniously designed, and the route is indeed the best. According to Ling Yun's description, the conversation between Cong Wang and Ning Huayan further confirmed the authenticity of this map Sex. But I always feel that it is too easy for us to succeed like this?"

Yongjia couldn't help lowering his head and thinking, "Brother Cong Wang is suspicious by nature, so it's hard to guarantee that there will be other arrangements, but as he said, the previous rumor that the route of taking the Xiangshui River was to confuse everyone, so this map is also [-]% or [-]% true!"

Hua Zhong looked at Ling Yun deeply, which made the cold Ling Yun a little embarrassed.Hua Zhong looked away and thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Ling Yun, use your lightness kung fu to go to the roof, use your profound lightness kung fu."

Ling Yun was puzzled, and looked at Ye Yongjia asking for instructions, and Yongjia nodded.Ling Yun was agile and disappeared from the sight of Hua Zhong and Ye Yongjia.

Hua Zhong sat quietly in the house, closed his eyes, knit his eyebrows together, and carefully discerned the sounds on the roof.When the breeze blows, Hua Zhong seems to hear the rustling of Ling Yun's clothes on the roof, as well as the calm and even shallow breathing...

Hua Chongmu suddenly opened his eyes, and saw Ye Yongjia's clear eyes.

Ye Yongjia smiled, "It seems that King Cong is far from being as simple as we imagined, and he almost fell into the trap!"

Hua Zhong smiled slightly, "Even I can hear the sound of Ling Yun hiding on the roof, let alone Ye Congjia, who has profound martial arts and hides his secrets? This picture is true, but Ye Congjia chose not this route !"

Ye Yongjia turned his eyes, "Then did he really choose to go to Xiangshui?" Ye Yongjia couldn't help frowning, "The Xiangshui dam has just been cast, although the flood has been temporarily controlled, but the danger is still very high, how could he Take the risk?"

"This is his brilliance!" Hua Zhong said with an unpredictable expression, "He deliberately released the news to confuse everyone. Everyone thought that he was greedy for success and took risks. He chose the shorter route of Xiangshui to reach Jingzhou. It is reasonable. It is indeed convincing, but it has ignored his suspicious and resourceful character! Tonight Lingyun probed, and let Cong Wang put forward another one. Cong Wang deceived Lingyun with a fake marching route map. "

Yongjia smiled slightly, "But he forgot about you, a wise man, and now we know that he left Xiangshui, what shall we do?"

There was a glint of coldness in Hua Zhong's eyes, "Naturally, we want him to die before he leaves school!"

"Is this a little...?" Yongjia hesitated.

Hua Zhong couldn't help smirking, "I'm just going to let him lose his army! This time, if he doesn't get to Xiaoyao Village in Jingzhou, he will go back to Wan'an City!" Hua Zhong looked at Yongjia with a smile on his face, "I heard Princess Xinyang said that there is a hidden treasure in your house. A lot of explosives?"

Yongjia frowned suspiciously, "Those things were used by my father to mine official kiln mines in previous years. They are very dangerous. Why do you want them?"

Hua Zhong looked at the marching route map in his hand, "Naturally, the dam of the Xiangshui River was blown up!"

"The Xiangshui dam has just been built, won't your bombing cause floods again?" Yongjia looked nervous, "Even if it's to suppress King Cong, you can't make fun of the Li people!"

Hua Zhong didn't take it seriously, "Did Yongjia forget the plan he gave to the emperor? The emperor praised you a lot, but you forgot. I have already asked the princess, and the household department has already transferred the property by the Xiangshui River. The people moved to a higher place. Now there may be no one around the Xiangshui River, just waiting for King Cong to pass by!"

Yongjia looked a little relaxed, "That's it, that's fine! I'll ask Ling Yun to prepare. Then you tonight..." Yongjia smiled leisurely, "It's getting late, you can stay in the palace tonight, I'll ask someone to clean it up. room."

Hua Chong smiled and shook his head, "I'd better go back! I always feel a little uneasy."

Yongjia listened, smiled lonely, and nodded. "Alright, with your identity and Young Master Xue's temper, it's indeed a bit inconvenient!"

Hua Zhong couldn't help being a little embarrassed, he just felt a little uneasy about Cong Wang's marching route map, but he didn't expect to be misunderstood by Yong Jia.He just smiled and didn't explain.

The carriage was driving on the quiet road, Hua Zhong closed his eyes and rested in the carriage, but there was a trace of uneasiness and doubt in his expression.It was already midnight, and the surroundings were eerily quiet, only the ticking of horseshoes and the creaking of ruts...

Hua Chongmuran opened his eyes, exuding a sharp cold light, "Chu Hua, where are you now?"

Chu Hua, who was driving outside the carriage, replied, "It's almost time to arrive at the Ning Mansion, what orders does Miss have?"

Hua Zhong resolutely said, "Stop the car! Get me a set of night clothes..."
