Jiang Aijian said awkwardly, "A little."
Lu Zhou did not shift his gaze away from Yu Shangrong.
Jiang Aijian said helplessly, "Liu Huan is a cunning man. Some of the informers I've planted have turned against him … They might've also been controlled by Mo Li. In any case, I can't trust many of them."
With such an explanation, it made sense to pass on fake news.
"From now on, it's better for you to deliver letters to the Evil Sky Pavilion personally," Lu Zhou said.
"That's not a problem at all," Jiang Aijian said.
If there was a loophole, it had to be fixed.
Creak, creak, creak …
The carriage entered the Shuntian Mountain Resort.
Little Yuan 'er poked her head out to look. Then, she turned and said, "We're not the only ones."
Jiang Aijian said, "That's normal … His Highness the Second Prince knows what the Empress Dowager likes, so he picked a few troupes."
Lu Zhou did not look outside.
Some soldiers surrounded them.
Jiang Aijian said in a hushed tone, "They'll verify your identity. I'll do it in a while."
Lu Zhou was not worried about this. Instead, he was wondering what he would do if Leng Luo failed.
At that time, he could only use his divine ability to control Whitzard and escape.
That scene was too embarrassing for him, the Great Demon Lord.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and asked, "Do you have a way out?"
Jiang Aijian smiled and said, "Of course, a cunning rabbit has three burrows … But you don't need one, old senior."
Lu Zhou did not probe further.
At this moment, a conversation could be heard outside.
"Sir … I was invited by His Royal Highness the Second Prince. You don't have to be so polite. My surname is Ri. Just call me Leader Ri. I've been preparing for this team for a long time. I'll take it seriously."
"Thank you, take care."
After the identity of the first carriage was verified, it entered the villa.
Little Yuan 'er covered her mouth and giggled as she said, "Master … that man is so strange."
Lu Zhou was not as curious as Little Yuan 'er. He did not look outside, but he could tell from the carriage that the man's accent was strange.
There were all sorts of strange things in the boundless universe.
It did not take long before they arrived at Lu Zhou's carriage.
During the verification, Jiang Aijian stepped forward and said, "Sir … We're family. This is the Second Prince's waist tag."
The soldiers did not make things difficult for them and allowed the carriage to enter the villa.
Jiang Aijian returned to the carriage and said, "You don't say. That Ri guy is quite good with words. That's how people should be. Only by saying what people say and what ghosts say will they live a long life."
Little Yuan 'er rolled her eyes at him.
"Hmph, you and that Ri guy are not good people!"
"I didn't say I was a good person!"
Creak.
Creak.
The carriage stopped.
The three of them jumped off the carriage.
The others also jumped out of the carriage.
This was a small courtyard by itself, and the teams were not together.
The environment was very good, but it was also very closed off. Every courtyard had a large number of soldiers guarding it.
There were also many cultivators.
The officer who brought them in said to Jiang Aijian, "Hurry up and get ready. I'll call for you when the performance is over."
"Don't worry, sir!" Jiang Aijian patted his chest and promised.
The crowd began to prepare various props for the acrobatics.
The soldier left.
Jiang Aijian walked up to Lu Zhou and said, "Old senior, just cooperate with the performance later … I don't think Mo Li will show herself. We'll leave through the secret passage."
"Cooperate with the performance?"
"I'm joking. I'll just be a spectator," Jiang Aijian said.
'That's more like it.
I'm already so old. How can I jump around on the stage like a young man? '
…
The Empress Dowager rested in the Obedient Villa.
The Second Prince, Liu Huan, was waiting outside.
"Grandmother, everything is ready. They're all your favorite things, "Liu Huan said.
"Thank you, grandson."
Zhao Yue glanced at Liu Huan. Then, she helped the Empress Dowager up and said, "Grandmother, have you always liked listening to music?"
The Empress Dowager smiled warmly and said, "The palace is cold and boring. That's my only hobby. Zhao Yue, why don't you stay in the palace and keep me company? "
Zhao Yue said, "Grandmother, you have so many grandchildren … Do you still need me?"
"They're all ingrates … I liked your third brother the most. Alas, he left early!" The Empress Dowager sighed.
"Third brother?"
"Let's not talk about this. Come, listen to music with me." After taking a few steps, the Empress Dowager slowed down. "Little Li."
Li Yunzhao hurried over to her side.
The Empress Dowager said, "Keep an eye on him."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The group arrived at the Obedient Villa.
At the center of the spacious courtyard, a stage and props were already prepared. The singer waited respectfully on the stage.
The Empress Dowager entered the villa. Under Li Yunzhao's guidance, she took the most important seat. It had a great view. There were secondary seats on either side of the main seat.
"We're all family. Sit wherever you want," the Empress Dowager said.
Although she said they would sit wherever they wanted, nobody dared to do so.
The Second Prince and the Fourth Prince entered the courtyard.
The Empress Dowager pulled Zhao Yue to sit beside her.
After the singer bowed, he began to perform.
For those who did not understand music, these things were not interesting.
For example, the Second and Fourth Princes … When they listened, their minds wandered and did not know what they were hearing.
After a while …
The Empress Dowager said happily, "… Reward!"
The others applauded hypocritically.
"If Grandmother says it's good, then it's good. You'll be rewarded handsomely!" Liu Huan waved his hand and looked at Liu Bing, the Fourth Prince. "What do you think, Fourth Brother?"
"Of course," Liu Bing replied.
The next two performances were boring.
The Empress Dowager was bored.
The Second and Fourth Princes shook their heads in agreement.
When it was time for the third performance …
Zhao Yue's eyes brightened.
He saw a strangely dressed man with a moustache and a tall hat on his head walk up to the stage.
'Fourth Senior Brother? Why is he here? '
Zhao Yue was speechless.
There was no need to mention how bad their acting was.
Halfway through the performance, the Second Prince, Liu Huan, slammed the table and said, "What a mess! Men! "
The Empress Dowager was baffled as well.
It was like a magic trick or a sideshow. It was not interesting at all.
"Take him down!" Liu Huan said.
At this moment, Zhao Yue hastily said, "I think his performance is good."
"Hm?" Liu Huan looked at Zhao Yue.
The Empress Dowager nodded lightly. "If Zhao Yue says it's good, then it's good … I like it."
The strangely dressed man bowed at the Empress Dowager. "Thank you, Empress Dowager!"
"Reward him!" the Empress Dowager said calmly.
Liu Huan waved his hand helplessly. "Reward him."
Clip-clop, lip-clop.
Clip-clop, lip-clop.
Groups of people from the Obedient Villa appeared one after another.
The Obedient Villa was not outside. Why were there so many people?
The Empress Dowager said, "Little Li."
Li Yunzhao hastily lowered his body and listened.
"Why is it so noisy?"
Li Yunzhao nodded and said, "Let's take a look."
He tapped the ground with the tip of his foot again.
Bam!
His figure shot up into the sky.
He looked down at the Obedient Villa.
'Hm?'
He saw people everywhere on the mountain. The entire Obedient Villa was surrounded.
Li Yunzhao landed. He fell to one knee and said, "Empress Dowager, I'm afraid you'll have to ask the two princes about this."
The Empress Dowager looked at Liu Huan and Liu Bing.
Liu Huan waved his sleeves, cupped his fists, and said, "Grandmother, music and sideshows are small tricks. I've prepared a great show for you."
"A great show?"
Liu Bing chuckled and said, "Brother, are you in such a hurry?"
"Of course."
Liu Huan applauded.
An elegant and seductive woman in red makeup entered the Obedient Villa with several other women around her.
