C97 Part3

....

Murong Ci and Murong Yu looked at each other and pondered.

'If the person who bought the weapons privately is from the Northern Yan, then he must be planning a major event and conspiring against the Country.

But if he's not from the Northern Yan, the situation is even more serious:

Eastern Chu, Southern Yue and Western Qin are all possible candidates.

He's powerful...

Is he a member of the Royal Family of these three Countries?

As long as one of these three Countries holds the secrets of our Northern Yan weapons, our military advantage will be lost.

The more I think about it, the more it feels terrible.'

Master Wang Tao suddenly said:

"By the way, Master Wan Fang had a fierce wife and a beautiful concubine.

He used to hid her in an Alley outside his mansion.

Maybe that concubine knows a little bit."

Murong Ci asked:

"Where is that? What is the name of the concubine?"

"Mhh, let me think about it...

I think her name was Cui Liu and she lives in the Yangliu Alley."

Master Wang Tao said.

"Guards, take him to the prison."

Murong Yu ordered in a deep voice.

After Master Wang Tao was taken away, she asked:

"We should go to the Yangliu Alley tomorrow morning."

Murong Yu stood up and walked out,

"Let's go now."

She changed her mind,

'That's right. This matter can't be delayed.

If that Concubine Cui Liu hears any leaks and escapes, then how will they find her again?'

The night was quiet, the breeze was blowing and the stars were shining.

The sound of the galloping horses and their iron hoofs flying across the street was particularly loud and clear, like an iron horse glacially entering people's dreams, and awakening the dreams of ordinary citizens of the Capital.

There were many households in the Yangliu Alley, and some of them had a lantern hung under the eaves of the door, and they could vaguely tell which household it was.

They walked all the way into the Alley, and Murong Ci saw a small house with the name "Wan" written on the courtyard, and said,

"It should be this one."

Although it was midnight, Murong Ci wasn't sleepy at all.

The question was:

'How to get in? Wanna sneak in like a thief?'

Murong Yu didn't seem to want to go in either, standing in front of the gate, as if he was here for fun.

A dark shadow emerged from nowhere and flew quickly to the backyard.

Murong Ci raised her eyebrows, and thought,

'It turned out that he was planning to let his Ghost Guard catch her.'

The dim light and shadow of the lantern flowed from the neighbors, and the faint redness shone on his black brocade robe, making his cold facial features more beautiful and mysterious in the dark night.

Not long after, there were sounds from the backyard, women's whimpers, and noisy footsteps.

As the door was opened, Murong Yu went in and she quickly followed in the magnificent place.

The Ghost Guard lighted a candle but the Hall was still dim.

Murong Ci carefully looked at the beautiful woman who was standing still, presumably she couldn't move because the Ghost Guard clicked on her acupuncture points.

The woman was wearing a moon-white bedclothes, and her figure was slender.

She had scattered raven silk hair and black radiant eyes, and a delicate, white and Jade-like face.

Those clear eyes moved around, full of panic and horror.

The Ghost Guard clicked on her acupuncture point and her body suddenly loosened, but instead of running away, she calmed down and asked angrily,

"Who are you? Why are you breaking into my house without permission!

I'll report you to the Officials!"
