Chu Jingding Manor
"Prince, the Princess Consort has sent a letter." It was already the end of April, and the sun shone warmly in the garden. Pushing open the window, the peonies in the garden were in full bloom. Mo Xiuyao looked at the garden outside the window and vaguely remembered that he had met Li Li at this time last year. At that time, he definitely did not expect that Mo Jingqi's malicious and humiliating marriage would bring him such an extraordinary wife. Now, the people loyal to the Emperor and those loyal to King Li were like fire and water in the capital. Because of the Princess Consort's disappearance, the doors of the Ding Manor were still closed and did not care about worldly affairs. They silently expressed their dissatisfaction with the Emperor and allowed the Emperor and King Li to fight openly and covertly, unlike the Ding Manor in the past that always supported the Emperor at appropriate times.
"Bring it over!" Mo Xiuyao retracted his gaze and turned to look at Director Mo, who was standing at the door.
Feng Zhiyao stood at the door, holding a thick sealed file in his hand. He looked at Mo Xiuyao with a smile and said, "Ah Yao, our Princess Consort's sister-in-law is really heartless. She left for almost two months and only remembered to write a letter back." Mo Xiuyao frowned. He raised his hand and the file in Feng Zhiyao's hand was sucked over by a strong force. "Where are they now?" Feng Zhiyao shook his head and said, "If the Princess Consort's whereabouts were so easy to find, they would not have disappeared until now. The Shadow Guard who received the letter was at the border of Luoyi Tribe in Nan Jiang, but the Shadow Guard did not see the person who sent the letter. Along the way, whether it was our people or other people, they did not find any trace of the Princess Consort. Speaking of which … it should not be difficult for the five of them to find out. Even if others do not know, our own people will know. " Mo Xiuyao frowned and said, "That proves that there were not five of them along the way. Also, Li Li's disguise is very good. The Shadow Guards who are scattered all over the country have never seen them before, so it will be difficult for them to recognize them. "Moreover, they knew the approximate locations of the Shadow Guards, so it would be much easier for them to avoid them.
Mo Xiuyao opened the file, and a shiny object and a sealed letter slid out of the paper bag. Mo Xiuyao took the ornament in his hand. It was a gold ornament with a sunflower pattern embedded with gemstones. Feng Zhiyao was surprised, "Wangfei actually gave you an accessory?" But … could it be that something was wrong? Mo Xiuyao looked at the gold ornament in his hand, then placed it on the table. Then, he opened the envelope and lowered his head to look at himself. His sharp eyebrows gradually furrowed. After a while, he said, "Find someone who is proficient in Nan Jiang's language." Feng Zhiyao looked at him with surprise and said, "Don't you know Nan Jiang's language?" Mo Xiuyao frowned and said, "This isn't the same. It should be Nan Jiang's ancient language." Feng Zhiyao took the letter and looked at it. The twisted and strange characters made his head swell, "It looks a bit like Nan Jiang's language, but it seems … I can't understand it. How does wangfei's sister-in-law know this kind of strange language? "
Mo Xiuyao lowered his head to look at the other letter that was clearly short, and said, "She doesn't know it. She memorized these words and then wrote them out from memory."
Feng Zhiyao didn't believe it, "She doesn't know this kind of twisted thing, how can she memorize it from memory?"
Mo Xiuyao faintly glanced at him. Feng Zhiyao rubbed his nose and said, "Alright, we do have many people who are proficient in the current language of the Southern Xinjiang, but if it's the ancient language … That seems to be something that the Southern Xinjiang stopped using more than two hundred years ago, right?" In the past, although Nan Jiang relied on the previous dynasty of the Central Plains, there were many tribes, and their language was different. It wasn't until Nanzhao was established that the current unified language of Nanjiang was implemented. Who knew which clan's language was written on this piece of paper? "If it's in the capital, I'm afraid I'll have to find Elder Su. He might be able to see what this is. However … "Although Elder Su Zhe was a person of virtue and prestige, he was still an official of the imperial court. If it really was an important secret, he would have to report it to Mo Jingqi.
Mo Xiuyao frowned and shook his head, saying, "Elder Su has never had a good impression of Nan Jiang. He's not proficient in Nan Jiang's language."
Feng Zhiyao's eyes turned and he said with a smile, "Speaking of which … Ah Yao, have you forgotten an important person?"
Mo Xiuyao raised his brows, calmly staring at him, warning him not to be deliberately mystifying. Feng Zhiyao giggled, saying, "Don't forget … which family our princess comes from. In the entire Da Chu State, is there any family more knowledgeable than the Xu family? If even the Xu family can't decipher this, then we can't hope to do it. " Mo Xiuyao frowned and lowered his head to look at the short family letter in his hand. He picked up the gold ornament on the table and carefully examined it. "Do you think this looks like an ornament?" Feng Zhiyao didn't understand. "Is it not?" Mo Xiuyao felt the obvious scratches on the back of the gold ornament. "This should be an ornament that was forcefully pried off from something. Also … do you remember which clan in Nan Jiang had a sunflower as their emblem? "
Feng Zhiyao frowned and thought hard. "The sunflower is also known as the sunflower. It likes warmth and is resistant to drought. Nan Jiang is not very suitable for it to grow. Therefore, there doesn't seem to be any clan that uses it as their emblem. But … do you remember that there was a princess from the previous dynasty who married the leader of a tribe in Nan Jiang? " Mo Xiuyao was silent for a moment. They were all people familiar with history books. Even if they didn't pay attention to these things, the previous dynasty and Da Chu State were so close, so they naturally had some impression. "It was the Chaoyang Princess of the previous dynasty?" Feng Zhiyao said with a smile, "Yes, the rumored name of this princess had the character Kui."
"Then … if Li brought this out, it means that it is not a normal antique. Does this have something to do with the previous dynasty's princess? The descendant of the previous dynasty's princess … when the previous dynasty fell, this princess had already been married for two hundred years, right? "
"Who knows." Feng Zhiyao shook his head.
Mo Xiuyao was silent for a moment before saying, "Send someone to secretly send a copy of this seal to Yunzhou. Also … if the Shadow Guard in Nan Jiang finds Li Li, immediately tell her not to worry about this matter. " Feng Zhiyao put away the letter with some surprise and said, "Wang Fei has clearly done well. If there is a chance to continue investigating, she should know many secrets of Nan Jiang. Why not? We can send people to help Wang Fei. " Mo Xiuyao stared at the gold ornament in his hand and said in a low voice, "I don't know why, but I feel that there is a great secret hidden in that piece of paper. It's just that we don't have a clue yet. Li Li doesn't know anything. It is very dangerous to rashly investigate. "
Feng Zhiyao shrugged helplessly. "Alright, everything will be done according to Prince's orders."
Feng Zhiyao took the item and left. Only Mo Xiuyao was left in the room. Mo Xiuyao lowered his head to look at the letter in his hand again. Other than a simple explanation of what happened after entering Nan Jiang, there was only a short sentence of "Don't miss me." Gently stroking the letter in his hand, Mo Xiuyao's lips curved into a bitter smile.
Ye Li and the other three rushed all the way and arrived at Nanzhao's capital in less than seven days. Once they reached the capital, Sickly Scholar took Master Liang and left without hesitation. Han Mingxi was so angry that he couldn't help but curse. "What does he mean? Is he going to burn the bridge after crossing the river? "Ye Li glanced at him and said with a smile," Even if he burns the bridge after crossing the river, what can you do? "The Tianyi Pavilion had people in Nan Zhao, and so did the Yanwang Chamber. The Tianyi Pavilion was an intelligence organization, and the Yanwang Chamber was an assassination organization. So what if they were dissatisfied? No one could do anything to Sickly Scholar. Han Mingxi crossed his arms and looked at her. "Didn't you want some medicine to prolong life or revive the dead? If you let him go just like that, do you think he will obediently deliver it to you?
