Chapter 9 The Secret of the Waterfall

It was late at night before Feng Tingxiao and the others came back.Haitang couldn't bear it anymore and went back to sleep, Xie San set up a chessboard in the room, playing chess with his left hand and right hand, waiting for Ling Feng to come back and report the situation.

"Your Majesty, I am certain that Prince Xian is here to arrest people, and it seems that they have arrested more than one person. They secretly inquired about an imperial doctor in the town, and I am afraid that the person they are looking for is Miss Haitang's master. Fortunately, there is a doctor in the town. No one knew the master’s name, nor did they know he could treat patients. When asked about doctors who could treat patients, they only knew about Miss Haitang.”

Xie San nodded.It seems that the reason why the fourth child found Gu Quan easily in the previous life was because Hai Tang rescued him back home. If he missed it this time, it should buy the master and the others some time.But this is also at stake, and the master must be prepared early.

"Tonight Feng Tingxiao also went to see an old man named Chen. Master, Feng Tingxiao and this old man Chen. The three of them should be prisoners of the imperial court. It seems that they only know the details of each other and the cases they have are not connected."

That's right.In his previous life, Xie Si had already killed Gu Quan and taken away Haitang, but he still wanted to kill the entire town because there were still imperial prisoners hidden inside.Xie Si was able to kill five hundred civilians indiscriminately for an imperial prisoner!
Xie San was furious and poured a large bowl of cold water before falling asleep.

Early the next morning, Xie San woke up to the sound of birds chirping and bees singing. After jolting on the carriage for a few days, he finally had a peaceful sleep and felt that all the injuries on his body were almost healed.

In the yard, Haitang and Feng Mingze were talking.

"Brother Mingze, are you going out now? The master told Ji'er to go too."

"Well, bring a little girl with you. It won't be easy to attract attention. You stay on the ridge today and don't run around, and don't go to the town. There is a lot of chaos in the town now. The Jin Yiwei will interrogate people when they catch them."

Haitang felt a little helpless, and she really wanted to help: "Okay...I'll help Aunt Feng cook at home, you guys come back early."

"Silly, my mother won't ask you to help cook, so you are responsible for helping to eat." Mingze's tone was full of doting.

Xie San couldn't listen anymore and walked out with a bad face.

Haitang smiled and said, "Good morning, Third Brother Xie! Does your wound still hurt?"

Only then did Xie San remember the injury on his back, and quickly pretended: "It seems that there is still a little... Do I need to change my medicine today?"

Mingze looked at him coldly: "For such a simple matter as changing the dressing, don't you have an entourage? Do you still need to use the little girl? Do you want me to change it for you?"

Haitang smiled and pushed Mingze: "Yes, yes, let him change the dressing by himself! You hurry up and leave. Ji'er brought glutinous rice dumplings, all made by me! You can eat them on the road later." Mingze Lu Chi smiled, nodded, and left with Ji'er.

"That... glutinous rice dumplings are still there? I want to eat them too, you made them." Xie Sanxi asked with a face. "Yes, you go to the kitchen to bring it, I'll leave a plate for you. I'll go see if Aunt Feng can help." Haitang said briskly, turned around and went to Feng's house.

Xie Sangang wanted to get the glutinous rice dumplings when Ling Feng came back from outside.

"My lord, there is a situation."

Xie San nodded: "Hurry up and go to the kitchen to get a plate of glutinous rice dumplings, then go back to the room and eat and talk."

Begonia's glutinous rice balls are so delicious, they are actually salty and have fillings!The pickled meat mince inside has the fragrance of glutinous rice, which is [-] times more delicious than the sweet glutinous rice balls made by Yuchu!The daughter-in-law I chose is beautiful and intelligent~ Xie San has always boasted that she has good vision.

"My lord, I followed Master and Feng Tingxiao this morning. They went to Yueling Waterfall. But the strange thing is, they disappeared when they got to the waterfall."

Xie San almost choked on a mouthful of glutinous rice. "Is there something wrong with the waterfall?"

"I guess so." Ling Feng nodded and said, "I want to check it out later, but I need to take Ling Yun for a walk."

Xie San was still thinking about the glutinous rice dumplings, and nodded: "This is the first time I have eaten such delicious glutinous rice dumplings. Why are there none in the palace? Eat quickly, and we will go together after eating."

The three were about to go out, Xie San thought about it, wrote a note and left it on the table: Let's go for a walk, see you later.

After a while, they rode to the waterfall.This is the water flowing down from the mountain behind Yueling, leaving a small pool in Yueling, and then rushing out of Yueling all the way to Linyue Lake at the foot of the mountain.Behind Yueling is not a mountain, but a layer upon layer of mountains that cannot be seen at a glance.

If they could see it from the air, it would be easy to see that Moon Ridge is just a horn sticking out of the mountain range.

They loosened the reins and let the horse graze at the edge of the forest. Lingyun Lingfeng approached behind the waterfall, and Xie San stood not far from the horse to observe the surroundings.Soon, they turned back: "Your Majesty, there is a cave behind the waterfall. The entrance of the cave can accommodate two people passing side by side, but we don't know what's going on inside. The master and the others are still inside, so we don't dare to go in."

"Okay! Let's take a look at the surrounding situation first, and then go in to explore the cave tonight. Ling Feng, you'd better go to the town and squat down. If there is a situation, you can deal with it. Be careful not to be discovered by the Fourth Prince and the others. Ling Yun, follow me. .”

So they divided their troops into two groups and acted separately.
