Chapter 1204 Probing (Third)

Prince's Mansion Back Garden

The setting sun made the back garden red, adding a bit of beauty.

Lu Yurong was sitting in a small courtyard in the back garden reading a volume, her expression was peaceful and serene, and the nine girls were sitting around her, each busy, some were watering flowers, some were cutting grass, some were practicing kung fu, some were reading books, faintly Surround her in the middle to form a formation.

Leng Jinghua strode to the back garden, entered the small pavilion, and sat down opposite her.

Dressed in white clothes like snow, Lu Yurong slowly put down the book and looked at Leng Jinghua: "What's urgent, Uncle?"

"Gu Qi is dead!" Leng Jinghua said in a deep voice.

He took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. It stands to reason that he is such an expert that he would not sweat even if he walks in a hurry, but Leng Jinghua was sweating at this moment, as if he had come all the way in a hurry.

Lu Yurong was startled, and said in surprise, "Dead?"

"It is said that he was assassinated by a disciple of the Guangming Sacred Cult." Leng Jinghua shook his head and said, "Now the whole city is being searched, and this disciple of the Guangming Sacred Cult must be found."

Lu Yurong frowned and said, "How could you die so easily?"

"He's not good at martial arts." Leng Jinghua said: "If you want to rely on guards, it's still not reliable,...but the Guangming Sacred Church is too extreme, to assassinate the commander of the Secret Guard Mansion, it's really daring!"

Lu Yurong said indifferently: "Of course the Guangming Sacred Cult is very courageous. They didn't pay attention to our big season at all... If they can't catch the murderer, the disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult have a secret method that can cover up their martial arts."

"Oh..., I'm so ashamed and humiliated!" Leng Jinghua snorted, "Damn Gu Qi!"

Lu Yurong said: "Can it be saved?"

"It can't be saved." Leng Jinghua shook his head and said: "This person's attack is so fierce that he directly shattered his brain. Even if there is an elixir, he can't save him....Yu Rong, you really want to be the commander of the Secret Guard Palace?"

"You can give it a try." Lu Yurong said: "I have become the commander, at least I don't have to worry about other people's assassination."

Leng Jinghua nodded lightly.

Lu Yurong's martial arts is top-notch among the young generation. Even if those top five masters come over, they don't even think about killing her, they will always give her a chance to escape.

Leng Jinghua thought for a while and said, "This is not a good time, Father must be very angry now."

"Gu Qi hasn't done anything since he took office, he should have died long ago." Lu Yurong shook her head and said, "As for the emperor's anger, it's useless, he can't deal with the Guangming Sacred Church."

"Hmm." Leng Jinghua frowned and said, "I'll give it a try!"

He got up and left in a hurry.

Lu Yurong paced thoughtfully.

Why did the Guangming Sect assassinate Gu Qi?

As a member of the Guangming Sacred Church, he should wish that someone like Gu Qi could stay in the position of the leader of the Secret Guard Mansion. The more incompetent Gu Qi was, the better it would be for the Guangming Sacred Sect. Why did he assassinate Gu Qi?

She frowned and said nothing, always feeling that something was wrong.

After a while, she had a flash of inspiration and smiled. The assassination by the disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult may not be from the Guangming Sacred Cult. Who can know the truth if others imitate the words of the disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult? Anyway, the murderer was never caught.

She suddenly remembered a piece of news. Gu Qi said that he had found evidence of Chu Li's collusion with the Guangming Sacred Church, and sent someone to ask Chu Li to come back and confront him.

Bright holy religion! Chu Li!

She suddenly smiled.

Then drift away.

Chu Li is practicing kungfu on Yuqi Island. He is working hard on Datian Yanjian and Flicking Thunder. Both martial arts are very important to him.

He suddenly frowned, and disappeared on Yuqi Island in a flash.

——

Baiyun Building is very lively, the first floor is the busiest, there are cubicles on the second floor, and single rooms on the third floor.

Lu Yurong was dressed in a white shirt with a white gauze covering her face. She was sitting in a single room on the third floor of Baiyun Building by the window. There was no one else around her, and she was just eating food gracefully and calmly.

Chu Li suddenly appeared in the room and sat opposite her.

Lu Yurong took off her white gauze, revealing a charming jade face, looking at him with a half-smile.

Chu Li said: "Your Majesty is here, what can you do?"

"Chu Li, did you kill Gu Qi?" Lu Yurong said.

Chu Li smiled and said: "I really want to do this, am I waiting for you to drive him out of the Secret Guard Mansion?...Hmmm? Gu Qi is dead?"

"Pretend to be confused!" Lu Yurong stared at him with bright eyes, watery eyes that seemed to penetrate into his heart.

Chu Li said angrily: "I'm happy!...how did you die?"

"It is said that he was assassinated by a disciple of the Holy Cult of Light." Lu Yurong said with a smile, "I wonder why the disciples of the Holy Cult of Light wanted to kill him? Such a stupid guy, I wish he could be the commander of the Secret Guard Palace forever."

Chu Li said: "Although Gu Qi is stupid, since he took office, he has dealt a particularly severe blow to the Guangming Sect. It is understandable to want to kill him if he clings to the Guangming Sacred Church."

"Hmph, I think there is a problem." Lu Yurong shook her head and said, "It's not Guangming Shengjiao who wants to kill Gu Qi the most, but you, Chu Li."

Chu Li said: "I want to kill him, but I'm not in a hurry. I believe you have a way to get him away. After he is no longer the commander, killing him will not be such a trouble. Just solve him silently."

"What if something forces you to do something?" Lu Yurong said with a smile: "It is said that Gu Qi has evidence of your collusion with the Guangming Sacred Church!"

Chu Li smiled and said, "Where did you hear such ridiculous rumors!"

"This matter is true." Lu Yurong said: "In short, Gu Qi died in your hands in all likelihood!"

Chu Li sighed and said: "If the emperor hears this, he must kill me!"

"It's good that you know!" Lu Yurong smiled lightly.

Seeing Chu Li's expression like this, she was extremely proud and refreshed.

Chu Li shook his head and said, "You think it's me, but I still think it's you."

"I—?" Lu Yurong pursed her lips and smiled, "Tell me, why did I kill him?"

"One is for the position of commander." Chu Li said: "I know that you have been eyeing the position of commander of the Secret Guard Mansion all the time. He is an eyesore staying there. You can't wait and want to move him away as soon as possible."

"Er." Chu Li waved his hand with a smile, stopped her words, and continued: "It's also our agreement."

"I'm not going to kill him just because of the agreement." Lu Yurong snorted and said, "There are many ways to move him away, but killing him is the most stupid one."

Chu Li said: "Sometimes the more stupid the solution, the more people can't think of it, especially a smart person like you!"

"You're beating me down!" Lu Yurong snorted.

Chu Li shook his head: "This is my true thought, and it is estimated that many people will think the same, such as His Royal Highness, or the Emperor!"

Lu Yurong's face changed slightly.

Chu Li said: "His Royal Highness will not ask the emperor to let you be the commander, will he? The emperor is a suspicious person. Will he suspect that you did it?"

Lu Yurong frowned and remained silent.

Chu Li said with a smile: "It seems that His Royal Highness has already mentioned it to the emperor, hehe, I'm afraid it's impossible for you to be the leader!"

"Are you happy?" Lu Yurong snorted, "What good will it do you if I don't serve as commander?"

Chu Li said with a smile: "That's not good,...but if you want to be the leader, we can cooperate."

"No need!" Lu Yurong snorted.
