Chapter 1024 To Comb Out The Spies


    In the past few days, Luo Qingyan sent several generals to the mansion one after another to take


    something unimportant, such as books and tokens. He even called Zhao Yingjie here once. But except


    for Qian Jun, no one had reminded Yun Shang not to spend much on construction.


    No matter how obtuse Yun Shang was, she could tell that Luo Qingyan did this mostly to sound the


    spies out.


    After the generals had all made a etour in the mansion, Yun Shang said to Luo Qingyan, "I think the


    spy should be Qian Jun."


    Luo Qingyan was curious. He looked at Yun Shang and asked, Why did you think so?"


    Yun Shang blinked her eyes and thought for a long time before she said, "It should be his temper that


    makes him least like a spy. He seems to be a very rigid and well behaved man, and he is the only one


    who told me not to spend time on building here. "


    Hearing what Yun Shang said, Luo Qingyan couldn''t helpughing, "Can that be the reason?"


    Yun Shang nodded slightly. Luo Qingyan couldn''t helpughing again, "It seems that a person can''t be


    too honest, or the Empress will suspect him as a spy."


    "Then who do you think it is, your majesty?" Yun Shang asked with curiously.


    Luo Qingyan shook his head, but refused to reveal anything. He just answered, "I don''t know. I''m just


    testing. These alone are not enough to make a conclusion."


    Yun Shang looked up at Luo Qingyan and thought for a long time before asking, "Your Majesty, how


    many sets of clothes for the soldiers of the the State of Yng can you find for me?"


    Luo Qingyan looked at Yun Shang doubtfully, "It''s not difficult. There are also many captured prisoners


    in our army. Just take their military armors. Do Your majesty have any n?"


    Yun Shang smiled with pride, "Your Majesty, myke has been dug out."


    Hearing this, Luo Qingyan couldn''t help but ask in surprise, "So soon?" Then he thought about it


    carefully and said, "It''s less than half a month since you started the work."


    Yun Shang smiled, "The secret guards have been digging day and night. They are fast. I think this is a


    good chance to save their former majesties. "


    "But how?" Luo Qingyan asked softly.


    With a sly smile on her face, Yun Shang said, "Of course. Treat others in the same way as they treat


    us."


    In the middle of the night, Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan left the mansion with their secret guards. They


    crossed the city wall with Qinggong and went straight to the Phoenix Mountain. Outside the Lingxi City


    at night, it was still all around. In order not to disturb the soldiers guarding the city, Yun Shang didn''t


    even light the torch. After walking for about two miles out of the city, she asked the secret guards to


    light the torches.


    They didn''t go to the stone forest, but to the Langya Mountain. Except for the sound of burning torches,


    there was only the sound of their footsteps. "Luo Qingyan" came closer to Yun Shang and said in a low


    voice, "Your majesty, someone is following us."


    Yun Shang nodded slightly and turned around to look at the person beside her. Although he was


    dressed in Luo Qingyan''s clothes and had a simple disguise on his face, Yun Shang could clearly tell


    that he was not Luo Qingyan. The expression in Luo Qingyan''s eyes could not be imitated by anyone.


    "Do you know how many people there are?" Yun Shang asked softly.


    The people around her quickly replied, "Forty or fifty people."


    Yun Shang sneered. With only forty or fifty people, could they hurt her? Their idea was too naive.


    Yun Shang pretended that she didn''t find anything and went straight to the Langya Mountain. There


    was also dead silence on the mountain. Yun Shang took out the map and read it. There was a military


    stronghold three or four miles away from them.


    Halfway up the mountain, they entered a forest. The forest was full of rotten leaves, and when they


    stepped on the leaves, rustling sounds came out right away, and there were also unknown birds


    chirping on the trees. IAll these were so weird and terrifying. Yun Shang pulled her cloak tighter and


    walked faster.


    Only Yun Shang and the secret guards around her could understand the signals sent out by other


    secret guards.


    A leaf fell on Yun Shang''s arm. She stopped and looked up at the tree. She saw a silver light flew over


    from the leaves. A cold light shed in her eyes, and she quickly dodged the hidden weapon.


    The secret guard who disguised as Luo Qingyan sneered and said in the same voice as Luo Qingyan,


    "Since you dare to assassinate me, why don''t you meet me in person?"


    No one answered. Yun Shang whistled, and the secret guards surrounded Yun Shang and the secret


    guard who disguised as Luo Qingyan to protect them.


    Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Send out a distress signal and ask the military stronghold to send soldiers


    here for help."


    The secret guard behind her took out a bamboo tube. Just as he was about to ignite the fire, a dense


    number of hidden weapons flew over from all directions. The secret guards hurriedly blocked them with


    swords.


    Yun Shang sneered and raised her hand. Countless silver needles flew out of her sleeve and shot in all


    directions. Then there were a few screams from the top of the tree, and then some people fell down


    from the trees.


    The secret guard who disguised as Luo Qingyan reached out for a torch, held Yun Shang in his arms,


    and jumped up to the highest tree around them. There Yun Shang saw dense ck shadows at the top


    of the trees below her.


    Soon enough, the secret guards on the ground also jumped up and thrust their swords towards the


    treetops.


    "Kill them!" Yun Shang heard a hoarse voice, and then the ck shadows at the top of the trees


    moved, pouncing on her and Luo Qingyan.


    Yun Shang sneered and blew the white jade flute. The hidden guards who had been hiding around


    swarmed over and killed the assassins one by one.


    The assassins were at a disadvantage in a short time. The secret guards caught a man who looked like


    a leader with his face covered in a mask. But Yun Shang could tell who he was from his eyes.


    "Wang Yuan, are you here to hunt some wild animals on such a deep night?" Yun Shang sneered and


    looked at Wang Yuan. But she was also surprised. She didn''t expect that it would be him.


    Wang Yuan''s face darkened. After a long silence, he asked, "Did you deliberately lure me into the


    trap?"


    Yun Shang smiled, "Yes, I did lure you into the trap on purpose. If it were Qian Jun, I''m afraid that he


    wouldn''t act rashly even if he saw we only brought twenty or thirty people up to the mountain. Wang


    Yuan, you are still too young and impulsive. Let me think. You must have found that his majesty and I


    left the cityte at night, and we only brought a few secret guards with us. So you thought it was a


    chance for you. Therefore, you summoned some people and followed us. You wanted to find out what


    we were going to do, but you only found that we came to a military camp. You were afraid that after we


    got to the camp, you wouldn''t have the chance to do anything, so you hurriedly tried to kill us before


    you were ready.


    You dreamed it would be a great honor if you could take both my and His Majesty''s lives. In this way,


    you could be famous in a battle and known to everyone in the world. Then you could be conferred


    with official titles and added rank from now on... " Yun Shang said in a cold voice andughed, as if she


    was making fun of Wang Yuan''s wishful thinking.


    Wang Yuan sneered, "I know the person beside you is not his majesty. The only thing I did wrong was


    that I underestimated your majesty. If I have the chance next time, I would like to fight with you again. "


    Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and smiled cruelly, "You''ve underestimated me. Do you think I''ll give


    you another chance?" Yun Shang burst intoughter, which added to the eerie atmosphere in the forest


    at night, "You won''t have a chance again. I don''t think I will spare anyone who betrays me."


    As soon as Yun Shang finished speaking, Wang Yuan''s head fell to the ground.


    Yun Shang nced at his corpse indifferently and turned around, "Let''s go down the mountain."


    It didn''t take long for Yun Shang to arrive at the foot of the mountain. The moon finally rose above her


    head. Yun Shang frowned and looked up at the full moon in the sky. She muttered to herself, ''Your


    Majesty, how is everything going?''


    In the Chengshou Mansion, after Yun Shang left, Luo Qingyan ordered the secret guards to keep watch


    the mansion closely. Pei Lan took Luo Qingyan to the west garden. From the lights there covered by


    cloth, people could vaguely be seen busy working inside.


    Entering the west garden, he saw people walking back and forth in the garden, digging the soil with


    hoes and shovels. Theke that Yun Shang had been hanging at her mouth was gone.


    Luo Qingyan led dozens of secret guards through the west garden, into a yard nearby, and went


    straight into the house. The bed in the room was carried to the door, and a dark hole appeared in the


    ce where the bed was originally ced.


    Luo Qingyan walked to the edge and looked down. It was all dark below.


    "ording to the order of her majesty, the passage can allow two people to walk upright. The exit is in


    the camp of the State of Yng," the secret guard standing aside responded.


    Luo Qingyan was a little surprised, "The camp of the State of Yng is not on the mountain?The


    mountain is full of stones. How can we dig the secret passages into the camp?"


    The secret guard quickly replied, "The camp of ordinary soldiers is on the mountain, but the camp of


    generals and Cangjue Qingsu is at the foot of the mountain."


    Luo Qingyan couldn''t help but p his hands andugh, "Cangjue Qingsu is a cautious man. He set


    the mountain as a barrier and make the camp at the foot of the mountain. He supposes everything


    would be fine, but he would never imagine that he fits in exactly with our wishes."


    Luo Qingyan turned around and looked at the secret guards behind him. They were all wearing the


    armors like the soldiers of the State of Yng.


    "Do you remember the handing over secret signal of the night guards?" Luo Qingyan asked softly.


    All the secret guards nodded. Luo Qingyan said, "All right. Let''s go. I''ll go with you too."

    The secret guard wanted to stop him, but Luo Qingyan said smilingly, "It doesn''t matter. I won''t go out


    of the secret passage. There won''t be any danger." Then he went down to the secret passage with his


    secret guards.
