But I'm a male fox

"So good."

The Night Watch Division was originally responsible for arresting thieves, so they would definitely intervene when encountering this kind of thing, but the prince's mansion, which can and cannot be touched, is very troublesome.

Now King Hunhe has given the limit on his own initiative, and Cao Yueying is also happy to accept it.

Afterwards, she sent someone to report to the nearest night watchman Yamen, and called several teams of soldiers, whose leaders were all cronies promoted after she took office.

Miss Cao personally commanded the brigade to guard several key points outside the courtyard wall of the palace.They also selected elites with a high level of cultivation, some of them secretly ambushed outside the study, and the other formed a patrol team to patrol around the mansion.

After some arrangement, watertight and orderly.

In the end, she took Li Wei and the two of them to sit in a pavilion near the study.

The prince ordered his servants to bring hot wine and dishes, and put them on the stone table in the pavilion.

However, Li Cheng didn't put his mind on eating, but asked Cao Yueying various questions, such as:

"Why did you send someone to ambush under the wall over there?"

"What is that net for?"

"How do these people hide their aura?"

Facing the curious baby-like Li Cheng, Cao Yueying wasn't impatient at all. She knew very well that talents need to be trained to be useful, so like a young mother, she carefully explained the purpose of the decorations everywhere.

Including who is going to use hidden weapons to block the roof, what kind of formation should be used with those barbed fishing nets, etc...

If she knew that Li Cheng knew this so that he could cope with it when he came to steal things one day, I'm afraid she wouldn't be in such a good mood.

Anyway, Li Cheng feels that he has gained a lot and is very happy.

In this way, one called one Xue, the time quietly came to Zishi.

Then came the ugly time.

And then...

"I didn't see anyone at all..."

Cao Yueying sighed, stood up, and planned to find King Hunhe.

The other party also rushed over at this time, saying that just after inspection, the black pearl was intact and had not been stolen.

"Could it be that Bai Yutang is just an empty gun?"

Just as everyone was thinking wildly about the situation of being dove, suddenly a few people ran out from the hall where the banquet was held before, and came to Cao Yueying.

Under Wei Tong's whispered explanation, Li Cheng understood that this was King Chang Yang and his disciples.

But the prince said angrily: "Just now a relative came to report that the white jade candy had stolen a golden cup of birds and phoenixes hidden in the palace of the prince! He also left a note to mock the prince... "

? !

After a long time of trouble, it's not a pigeon, but a scam!

"So that's the case. Is it a plan to attack the west? Interesting." Cao Yueying smiled out of anger, and said to Li Cheng and Wei Tongdao, "Misters, I'm afraid we won't be able to go home to rest tonight."

"I would like to share my worries with my lord!"

So Cao Yueying left a team of soldiers and continued to guard the palace study in secret, then bid farewell to King Hunhe, took Li Cheng, Wei Tong and other subordinates, and left with King Changyang.

King Hunhe watched Cao Yueying and her group leave, and prepared to return to the banquet.

On the way, someone suddenly grabbed his sleeve and said in a low voice, "My lord, it's me."

He raised his eyebrows, and recognized that this person was one of the Wang family's guests, so he asked his servant to guard the door, and entered a small courtyard next to him with that person.

After stepping away from the screen, King Hunhe asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

"May I ask my lord, how did Cao Yueying behave when she deployed troops in the inner courtyard just now?"

After recalling it carefully for a moment, King Hunhe replied: "It's very organized. I was a little surprised that no one complained after standing for two hours in the middle of the night. I didn't expect that she would be able to train those wastes of night watchmen after only a few months in office." It has to look good..."

The man breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

King Hunhe asked back: "Your lord, have you not made up your mind yet?"

"Hey, it involves the two palaces and the general, how can it be so simple to decide."

"The two ends of the first mouse will surely die."

"The prince's words are very true, and he will try his best to persuade him when he returns next time..."

"Okay, let's go."

After letting the man leave, King Hunhe sat alone in the room, his head a little dizzy because of the late night.

"Oh, I'm getting old."

After he sighed, he stretched out his tongue and licked his lips suddenly, called the servant with a smirk, and asked in a low voice: "Prepare two 'meat sacs' for me..."

the other side.

Li Cheng followed Cao Yueying and rushed to the Changyang Palace. Compared to the Hunhe Palace, this place is slightly smaller, but it still occupies a large area and is luxuriously decorated.

Under the leadership of King Chang Yang, the crowd came to the place where the golden cup was stolen and searched for clues.

It's a pity that the sun is out, and I haven't found anything useful yet.

While Li Cheng was wandering around, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.

After searching for a long time, he finally found the source of the smell...

It's a dog hole in the wall!

Chapter 130 Third Miss's Self-reflection

So, why is it a dog hole?

Li Cheng pouted, and quietly squatted down while the people around him were not paying attention.

Then, he found a bit of light blue powder on the edge of the masonry of the dog hole.

Go in and smell it, um, this is the smell, a little hard to describe, like milk tea with stinky tofu...

It's just that Li Cheng's superficial miscellaneous knowledge cannot tell what it is.

"Brother Li...?"

"what!"

Looking back, seeing Weitong looking at him with embarrassment, Li Cheng quickly explained: "I found something strange."

Soon, Cao Yueying and others surrounded her. For a while, no one could see where the powder came from. They asked the servants of Changyang Palace, but they still found nothing.

Someone speculated: "At this location, could it be said that Bai Yutang came from a dog hole? Is it a monster? Or can it shrink bones?"

"No matter what, it's a clue after all."

So Cao Yueying asked people to collect the powder and ordered to go back home.

There is no way, the big soldiers can't hold on without sleep all night.

Although Li Cheng could hold on, in order not to be exposed, he also pretended to be listless, and fell asleep immediately after returning to the mansion.

Cao Yueying was also at the third grade, and she didn't use her internal energy much last night, but she was quite energetic.

She found the young disciple who was learning the sect of Taoism, and showed the powder to him.

"My lord, I know what this is."

The girl thought for a moment, and quickly gave the answer: "This is Lan Ling insect powder, which is made from fruit tree caterpillars on the South Island, and it is a material to assist in casting spells."

"Is it rare?"

"No, insect powder is actually very easy to obtain, and the price is not expensive, but... few people know how to use it, so they don't buy much." The girl was quite sure: "As far as I know, there are only three in the capital. Pharmacies will sell it."

"Great!"

This was the first good news Cao Yueying had heard since last night. She immediately asked the girl to tell the names of those shops, and then found her cronies and ordered them to follow up secretly.

In this way, we can finally make some progress.

After she breathed a sigh of relief, she walked into the courtyard, wandering around while thinking about other things-she is the kind of person who likes to walk while thinking about things.

As she walked, she realized that she had subconsciously come to the gate of Li Cheng's other courtyard.

Um......

What did Weitong say she would do?

It's really...that's all, anyway, it's my own home, so there's nothing to tweak.

Miss Cao stretched her waist, and couldn't help but recall all the things after meeting Li Cheng (Li Youxin in her eyes).

Searching for Zhang Si and finding powder, this man is not only a good storyteller, but also can always find details that ordinary people can't detect... I have to say, it gave her a lot of extra surprises.

But when I asked myself, Cao Yueying never really felt that it was possible for her and Li Cheng to develop a deeper relationship.

First of all, Li Cheng looked at her in her early twenties, but she was already 26, so there was a big difference in age.

Secondly, even if the Cao family is willing to sell her for a price because her strength is still growing, and they are not in a hurry to urge her to marry, they will definitely not allow her to marry someone with no background.

Unless she really only treats Li Cheng as a bad face...but that would undoubtedly be an insult to the disciples!When meeting someone with a strong heart, it is possible to leave directly or even die to show one's ambition.

Miss Cao still has to respect talents, she doesn't do this kind of thing.

"It's not bad to maintain the relationship between the lord and the disciples..."

Thinking of this, she turned around to leave the courtyard.

But suddenly saw Xiao Wan'er looking for her...

She took the initiative to wave: "Sister Wan'er!"

"Miss Yueying."

Xiao Wan'er smiled and said, "You also came to see Li...do you have a letter?"

"Just passing by, if you came to look for him, it would be a bit of a misfortune..."

Cao Yueying talked about what happened last night, and sighed: "After all, I am a mortal body. If I can't sleep a night, I must sleep for a long time."

The corners of Xiao Wan'er's mouth curled up slightly.

that fox?Mortal body?laugh.

He's fine if he doesn't sleep for a week, so he's probably pretending to sleep in it now!

However, this feeling that only I know his secret is really good...

The girl's heart was slightly sweet, she blinked and said: "Okay, I'll wait here for an hour before going to wake him up."

Cao Yueying was puzzled: "Why?"

Xiao Wan'er cupped her hands, and said loudly: "Practice martial arts, the most important thing is persistence, even if there is a reason for the incident, you can't just sleep through the day like this."

"That's true." Cao Yueying nodded in agreement, and asked again: "I heard, sister, are you teaching him yourself now?"

"Hmm~"

Xiao Wan'er pretended to be silly and smiled: "When I was in Feiyunzhuang before, I taught him the long fist of Gaozu, but now I want to have the beginning and the end, hehe..."

The girl was already young and beautiful, but now she deliberately pretended to show her youthful appearance.

Cao Yueying naturally understood this meaning.

Subconsciously, she began to compare Xiao Wan'er and Li Cheng again.

In terms of age, well, these two people are very suitable.

In terms of family background... Although the Xiao family has been gaining momentum recently, in the eyes of real aristocratic families, they are nothing more than rich country bumpkins. If it wasn't for the Cao family behind them, they would have been wiped out by others.

So from her point of view, the Xiao family and the Li family are not very good, they are all poor families, and their family backgrounds are equal.

As far as appearance and talent are concerned, both of them are dragons and phoenixes, Xiao Wan'er has a higher level of martial arts, but Li Cheng is more beautiful...

Um......

It's an inexplicable match?

Cao Yueying couldn't help imagining the scene of Xiao Wan'er and Li Cheng raising their eyebrows together, the beauty of a man and woman, really...

Suddenly, she felt a little uncomfortable.

Obviously she did not have deep affection for Li Cheng, and rationally knew that it was impossible for the two of them, but when she thought of that man standing beside Xiao Wan'er, she found herself a little uncomfortable.
