Chapter 1213: Difficult

tMo Junyi didn't answer the question, but merely curled his lips into a smile and said to Xiao Ba, "If one wants to do a thing well, they must first sharpen their tools."Xiao Ba raised an eyebrow, "Th...Yunliu and Shiyi returned to Moyunjing's side, having just finished reporting the results of their interrogation. Xiumu also returned.

He was exhausted. After bowing to Mo Yunjing, he spoke in a dejected tone, "I still couldn't find any trace of them. According to reason, once someone from our Xunzhang Valley gets into trouble, no matter where they go, they will leave some sign. But they clearly appeared in Youlan City, yet no matter how hard my subordinates searched, they couldn't find any trace left by them."

Yunliu and Shiyi looked at each other. Shiyi said, "Could you tell me about the mark of Xintang Valley I'll look for it again"

Xun Wu shook his head, "There are several types of marks left by Xun Tanggu. Before coming here, the Empress told me not to hide anything from you, so naturally I can tell you. But if you go looking for them again, it will be in vain. I have almost turned over every corner of Youlan City, but there is none."

In the midst of their conversation, Xunwu took a few steps forward and addressed Mo Yunjing, "Your Highness, may I borrow your pen and ink"

Mo Yunjing nodded slightly, pushing the ink toward Xunwu.

I began to sketch, without thinking, some symbols representing things about Xumintang Valley. Each symbol had a different meaning.

If it's just a simple separation, I also hope everyone finds each other in the end. The mark is the simplest: two dots inside a circle;

If we are ever forced to disperse due to danger, but agree to meet at the designated location, the marker will be three dots inside a circle;

If you encounter extreme danger and don't want people to continue searching for you, agree to meet back in the valley. The signal will be a circle with two intersecting lines inside.

If you need to escape urgently and require assistance, also mark with a circle containing the number ten.

Leaving such a mark would be simple for those searching for Xintang Valley, but ever since they came to Youlan City, both Xunwu and the others from Xintang Valley have searched here countless times.

There wasn't a trace left.

Yunliu and Shiyi looked at such a mark, carefully thinking about it in their minds, and indeed had never seen it before.

Mo Yunjing stared at the marks on the paper for a moment, "There's a traitor."

His sudden four words left Xun Wu and Yun Liu-yi, along with the others present, stunned for a moment. However, everyone there were intelligent individuals, and after reacting, they all understood what he meant.

Xun Wu frowned tightly, "Your Highness means that because there was a traitor, the brothers in the valley didn't dare to leave any mark, no matter what kind. The traitor would understand anyway. If there really is a traitor, the best thing to do is to reveal nothing at all."

But that also means finding those hundreds of brothers wouldn't be easy, and if there really was a traitor among them, they would be even more uncertain whether the first person they found would be the traitor.

Mo Yunjing stared at the marks, her brows furrowing in silence.

At this moment, Xun Wu clenched his fists. Fu'er's betrayal had resulted in the deaths of Xun Bu and others. Now that there were traitors among those who could access explosives, things would undoubtedly become very complicated. It was no wonder the Princess was so anxious, sending him here with the explosives.

Could this traitor, like Fu'er, be involved

Xun Wu thought carefully, wondering if there was anything else he had missed or overlooked.

Hundreds of brothers have disappeared, and even if there were traitors among them, they haven't been gone for just a day or two. It's impossible that they wouldn't try to send some information to the other people in the valley, or to find a way to contact the Princess and the Valley Master.

What exactly happened here

For a moment, silence fell over the camp. Not just Xunwu, but even Yunliu and Eleven couldn't understand what had happened.

The Xuntanggu brothers who can get access to explosives are all masters of martial arts, and their light kung fu ranks among the best in Xuntanggu. What kind of events or people could have driven them to hide so discreetly

After an unknown amount of time, Mo Yunjing looked up at Xun Wu, “Since we can’t find them, let’s think of a way to make them appear themselves.”

In the middle of their conversation, he glanced at Yunliu and said, "When Han Yun is rested, ask him to come over here."

As if by coincidence, just as he finished speaking, Han Yun slowly walked in. Seeing their serious expressions, he raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong Is Chi Guo already planning another round of military action"

Yunliu shook her head slightly. "It's not the matter of those scoundrels from Chi Country, but Lord Han arrived just in time. Our prince also wants to see you."

"Oh" Han Yun narrowed her eyes and looked at Mo Yunjing. "I've only just arrived, and you're already asking me to do something"

Mo Yunjing curled the corners of her lips, ignoring his words and simply asked, "How many people are there in Qingyun Pavilion here"

Han Yun's expression instantly lost its previous nonchalance. He knew that Mo Yun Jing wouldn't suddenly ask like this unless he had encountered something troublesome.

There are about twenty people in Youlan City, but as you know, the members of Qingyun Pavilion are scattered all over the place. If we were serious about gathering them, we could have a hundred people within two or three days.

Mo Yunjing shook his head slightly, "Twenty people is enough. This king needs you to have the people from Qingyun Pavilion spread the news of Fengming being with Xun Xun Tanggu brothers as quickly as possible, and let them know that Fengming is now in this king's hands."

Xun Wu frowned, "Your Highness, are you trying to make them show themselves But what if..."

Mo Yunjing raised her eyes and glanced at him, "Do you have a better way"

"! "

Xun Wu shook his head slightly. He really didn't have any. If he did, he wouldn't have spent so many days looking for it without finding a single clue.

He had thought about getting his brothers in the Xuan Tang Valley to show themselves, but he couldn't shake the worry that if they were truly in danger, any attempt to appear would lead them straight into an ambush by their enemies.

But letting them stay hidden forever wasn't an option either. Since they couldn't be found, the only way was to make them come looking for them. It seemed like this was their only solution right now.

Han Yun roughly guessed what Mo Yunjing wanted to do. He remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, "I understand. Two hours, give me two hours and I will be able to accomplish what you arrange."

Mo Yunjing glanced at him, "Thank you."

……

Beijing, Bei Jiang Wang Fu.

At this time, the sky gradually brightened. Ning'er slowly opened her eyes. She glanced at An Xuetang who was sleeping soundly on the bed, then got up and went out.

The young servant girl outside the door turned around and lowered her voice, "Your Highness, have you decided what you would like to eat today"

"I didn't say anything, I went to the kitchen and made sure they made some of everything. You keep an eye on things here."

"Okay."

It was almost dawn; in half an hour, their Lady would wake up, so they should arrange breakfast for her.

After Ning'er left Jingtang Garden, Shou'er stayed at the doorway, carefully watching the movements inside.

These days they truly dare not relax their vigilance, fearing that the princess might encounter something.

And at this time, An Xuetang's forehead was sweating. She wanted to open her eyes, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't.one knows what this maidservant did to incur the wrath of Consort Liu, who lashed out at her with such ferocity for a full fifteen minutes.The maidservant couldn't hold on any longer and nearly fainte...
