Chapter 570
Early the next morning, when the sky was just getting bright, Qi You dug out what they wanted from Pei Ruoshui.

Looking at the map of the imperial tomb in his hand, Nangong Qianmo curled up the corners of his mouth in satisfaction. As expected, there is a hidden cave under the imperial tomb of Nan Jing, but it is true, who would have thought that there is an underground palace hidden under the imperial tomb? !

At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoes. It turned out that Mo Tingye rushed over alone. As for the palace, Qianmian pretended to be him and sat in charge.

"Has everything been arranged in the house?"

Mo Tingye nodded, and asked directly after dismounting: "How is the situation?"

Nangong Qianmo directly threw the map in his hand to him, and then told Luo Yu Qiyou: "Qi You, go and pick 100 people, form a small team, set off immediately, and go to Huai'an City in batches. Luo Yu Stay and pay close attention to the situation in Shangjing."

"Yes!" The two agreed in unison.

Chonghua Palace.

Mo Junlan was falling asleep when he suddenly felt something pinching his nose, subconsciously frowned, and the moment he opened his eyes, he saw a soft little face facing him, pouting pitifully Mouth: "Cousin! Hungry!"

"!" Mo Junlan rubbed his eyes, with shock written all over his face: What's going on?How could this kid sleep in his own bed? !

After being stunned for a full quarter of an hour, he finally recovered, "Nan'er, who brought you here? Where are your father, queen, mother and concubine?"

The little bun immediately pursed his mouth when he heard it, and looked like he was about to cry. Mo Junlan was so frightened that he stopped immediately, and coaxed in a soft voice: "Oh~ Nan'er is good, I'll send someone to give it to you Make food, don't cry, don't cry!" Then he bent down and picked up the little bun.

At this moment, a note fell from Xiao Baozi's body. Mo Junlan picked up the note and opened it, and a few black lines were drawn across his forehead. He wondered if these two people are too big-hearted?Nan'er hasn't even turned one year yet, so just throw it away... Besides, for no reason, a child suddenly appeared in the palace, how can he be happy?
While Mo Junlan was secretly having a headache, Mo Tingye and Nangong Qianmo had managed to avoid the eyes and ears of the first floor and galloped towards Huai'an City.

Half a month later, Huai'an City.

Let's say that Nangong Qianmo's group of ten people pretended to be a caravan, traveled non-stop all the way, day and night, and finally settled in an inn outside the city before sunset, and inquired about the situation in the city by the way.

"The shopkeeper! Wake up, the shopkeeper, the door is open for business!" Qi You stepped forward and patted the dusty desk and shouted loudly.

The shopkeeper woke up suddenly, quickly wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Oh, look at me, I fell asleep by accident, are the guest officers going to the top or staying in the shop?"

"Staying in the inn, didn't you see that it's getting dark now!" Qi You said angrily, looked around and asked again: "Hey, I'm talking about the shopkeeper, the location of your inn is not good." Bad, why is it so deserted? Could it be a black shop?"

"Hey, guest officer, where did you go, the shopkeeper, I have been running the inn for most of my life, so why has it become a black shop! It's just that it's so difficult to open the door for business in this world!" The shopkeeper called Xiaoer to feed the horse outside, While personally pouring tea for several people.

The so-called tea is nothing but old tea bricks, yellow in color, with a layer of fine tea foam floating on it, the shopkeeper seemed a little embarrassed, and said: "You guys have worked hard on the journey, and now the business is not good, you can buy this tea." Make do with it first!"

"It's okay, no one is more expensive than anyone else when you are away from home." Nangong Qianmo took a big sip from the tea bowl and said curiously: "Shopkeeper, I remember that when I came to Huai'an City, it was not so deserted here. Now it is What's wrong?"

"Oh," the shopkeeper sighed, and said with a bitter expression, "I'm afraid the guest officers don't know something—"

"Since Nan Jing destroyed the country, Huai'an City was completely destroyed by King Xuan's explosives, and thousands of people died, but the new prefect of Huai'an City insisted on rebuilding the city wall and The streets in the city have requisitioned a lot of hard labor, no, the crops are so barren, and I don’t know when I will be the boss!"

Mo Tingye frowned: "As far as I know, the explosives only destroyed the imperial palace, city walls, and imperial tombs on Mount Jiuhua. It stands to reason that it shouldn't affect many people..."

"The explosion alone would not have killed so many innocent people, but after the explosion, there was another big fire, and it was the windy season, so..." Speaking of this, the shopkeeper couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, " That fire burned for three full days and nights, causing countless casualties in the city!"

Mo Tingye clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his arms popped out. What a good Tantai Yixin, you did not forget to show yourself when you were about to die. You are really calculating!If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't have shouldered the reputation of blowing up Nankyung's palace for him in the first place!It's good now, he himself died and became clean, but he couldn't argue with a hundred words...

Seeing the changing expression on his face, Nangong Qianmo quickly shook his hand quietly, and changed the topic: "Who is the governor of Huai'an City? Didn't the court give repeated orders not to requisition hard labor?"

"Hush! Don't dare to talk nonsense!" The shopkeeper's face changed when he heard the sound, he looked around, and then said quietly: "I'm afraid the guest officer doesn't know something, our eunuch is related to Fuguo's mansion, You can't afford to offend easily!"

"Oh, is that so?" Nangong Qianmo narrowed her eyes, a trace of anger floated in her eyes, and she quickly suppressed it. She took out an ingot of silver from her sleeve, put it in front of the shopkeeper, and lowered her eyes. He said: "To tell you the truth, we are going to the city to do antique business this time, and I would like to ask the shopkeeper to tell the name of the prefect, so as to save us from accidentally committing a taboo and getting into trouble, right?"

The shopkeeper looked at the silver in front of him and swallowed, quickly hid the silver in his sleeve, and said in a low voice: "This gentleman is surnamed Jiang and named Yuandao, and he is the natal brother of Mrs. Fu Guogong. Already!"

Nangong Qianmo and Mo Tingye glanced at each other, and said to the shopkeeper, "Thank you for the reminder, shopkeeper, I will write it down later!"

After dinner, the two returned to the inn room. Nangong Qianmo asked in a deep voice, "Have you ever seen this Jiang Yuandao when you were in Yuezhou?" Judging from what the shopkeeper said, this Jiang Yuandao is most likely the first It is very likely that the eldest uncle was deceived by the hidden stake buried downstairs, so he handed over such an important position as the prefect of Huai'an City to him.

Mentioning this person, Mo Tingye's expression was a bit strange: "During the epidemic in Yuezhou, I saw this person several times."

"how?"

"Courageous and resourceful, upright and upright." Mo Tingye evaluated him in eight words.
