Gongzi Qingqian went to pay condolences as usual. The coffin of the Emperor Linguo was placed in Anguo Temple in the Western Garden of the Palace.

The envoys of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Tao and Xuan Fei, were also at the entrance of the temple with Gongzi Qingqian.

The queen and concubines knelt on the right, while the emperor's uncle, the prince and the old ministers knelt on the left.

Gongzi Qingqian and others bowed and quit after burning incense. He couldn't help but sigh when he saw the withering of the royal family in Linguo.

When Xuanfei saw Young Master Qingqian come out, he followed him into the carriage. Liu Tao drove the horse back.

Young Master Qingqian sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to rest. Xuanfei thought Young Master Qingqian would tell him about the deeds of Emperor Linguo, but he didn't expect Young Master Qingqian to close his eyes without saying a word. He regretted following him.

The carriage arrived at the entrance of the inn. Young Master Qingqian got off the carriage and said to Liu Tao: "Go and check the sixth prince's uncle!"

After Liu Tao left, Xuan Fei asked Gongzi Qingqian while walking: "Does his uncle have any problems?"

"He is the only one who can compete with the Sixth Prince for the world!" The young master looked at Xuan Fei meaningfully.

"We will sit and watch the show when the time comes!" Xuan Fei was amused when he heard this. It seems that it is not so easy for the sixth prince to ascend the throne.

"We are already deeply involved in the chess game and can't help it!" Young Master Qingsen saw that Xuanfei was still unaware of it, so he had to let him understand a little.

"You're still helping him?" Xuan Fei's eyes almost fell out.

"It's all grasshoppers on the same rope! If he dies, we can't live!" Young Master Qingqian pointed out the powerful relationship.

"Ha! It's true that we're tied up with him? It won't be possible if we don't help me?" Xuanfei felt particularly awkward.

In the evening, Liu Tao entered Gongzi Qingqian's study. Xuanfei was grinding Gongzi Qingqian.

"Young Master! I've found out!" Liu Tao saluted to Young Master Qing.

"Tell me!" Young Master Qingqian put down his pen and looked at Liu Tao quietly.

"He has his own fiefdom and military commander in the northern border of Linguo. The commander of the left guard cavalry in the reserve camp of the capital was his son-in-law. The captain of the military commander in Luozhou was his brother-in-law. He also had some prestige among court officials." Liu Tao reported the results he found to Gongzi Qingqian one by one.

"To check these two people, be sure to find their mistakes or weaknesses! Hurry up!" Gongzi Qingqian added.

"Yes!" Liu Tao quickly turned around and left.

"I wonder if he will remember your love when you show up with him and let you go at the critical moment!" Xuan Fei curled his lips.

"I said it! Helping him is helping ourselves!" Gongzi Qingqian picked up the pen and started writing. After he finished writing, Ling Xuanfei handed it to the sixth prince in the palace when he was handed over to Nangong.

In Nangong Shi, he entered the palace with the token of the Youjing envoy. When the sixth prince heard that the young master Qingqian's people were coming, he asked Eunuch Xu to take him to the imperial study room to wait.

Nangong Shi had been waiting for an incense stick outside the door of the Imperial Study Room. It was so dark that he could no longer see his five fingers.

A sound of footsteps reached Nangong's ears. He looked up and saw the sixth prince slowly coming by two maids carrying lanterns. He followed Eunuch Xu.

"I've seen the prince!" Nangong Shi saluted respectfully.

"Go in and talk!" The Sixth Prince entered the study.

Nangong Shi followed the Sixth Prince into the study and looked at it. He couldn't help but be attracted by the furnishings inside. The items here are rare in the world.

"What do he have to say to me?" The Sixth Prince knew that it must be the one who brought Nangong Shi from Prince Qingqian.

"Young Master, please give me a brief description of this letter to you!" Nangong Shi presented the letter written by Young Master Qingqian to the Sixth Prince.

The sixth prince glanced at Xin Jian and said, "I understand!"

"Goodbye!" Nangong Shi left the Sixth Prince's study.

Nangong Shi left the palace gate but found that his horse was missing. He looked carefully at the intact horse stake, and was puzzled.

Nangong Shi was on the way to the inn and encountered four men in black wearing black with swords.

Seeing Nangong Shi gradually losing, a fast horse ran from the intersection in front of him. The person riding on the horse was Jiang Liang who came to pick up Nangong as Gongzi Qingqian ordered!

Jiang Liang swung his sword and injured the two of them. Then he pulled Nangong Shi on the back.

Seeing that the four masked men in black could not catch up, they went back to report dejectedly.

Gongzi Qingqian sent Jiang Liang to take Nangong Shi back to the inn. Nangong Shi described the situation of seeing the Sixth Prince. Gongzi Qingqian asked Nangong Shi to go back to rest.

"If you write a book for someone, they will reply three words! You will kill the person who sent you the letter!" Xuanfei said indignantly.

"Let's all go and rest!" After the young master Qingqian said, the candle fire was extinguished.

Liu Tao came back at noon the next day. He told Gongzi Qingqian that the sixth prince's uncle's son-in-law Luanping was a woman. His brother-in-law liked gambling.

On June 16th, there was a lotus viewing party in the ten-mile lotus pond outside the city of Linguo. Gongzi Qingqian asked Liu Tao to dress up as a woman to try to approach Luanping to find out his words. Nangong Shi pretended to be Liu Tao's cousin and went with him.

On the day of the Lotus Rewarding Meeting, the Sixth Prince invited envoys from various countries to appreciate the lotus.

Wan Heng stayed to guard the courtyard. Xuanfei, Jiang Liang and Gong Yu went to the lotus viewing party with Gongzi Qingqian.

Xuanfei was attracted by the fine wine there when he arrived at the flower party. He sat on the roof of the attic holding the jar and started drinking.

Gong Yu was afraid that Xuanfei would fall down if he drank too much, so he waved his hand and asked him to come down.

Xuan Feiren didn't come down, but threw the empty jar of wine into Gong Yu's arms.

"Stop worrying about him!" Jiang Liang pulled Gong Yu and sat on the stool outside the attic door of the Sixth Prince's Banquet.

Liu Tao stood in women's clothing on the bow of the flower boat. Nangong Shi was dressed in a light blue young master's costume. The two of them stood together, attracting a lot of attention.

Luanping did sit in a corner of the flower club to enjoy the lotus. Liu Tao's pretty face attracted his attention. He rented a flower boat and followed Liu Tao's flower boat.

Liu Tao and the other two got off the boat in a pleasant place. Luanping also stopped the boat and went to chat.

They were wandering around the riverside. While talking, Luanping showed dissatisfaction and resentment towards his wife.

Nangong Shi invited Luanping to his house for tea while they parted. Luanping happily agreed to look at Liu Tao's pretty face.

After Luanping left, Nangong Shi looked at Liu Tao and sighed: If you were a woman, you would not know how many lovers would be fascinated!

After hearing this, Liu Tao disappeared when he left Nangong. Nangong Shi had to row back alone.

When Prince Qingqian saw Liu Tao walking towards the viewing platform here, he stood up and said goodbye. The sixth prince also took his crown princess away.

Nangong Shi returned to the inn, and Gongzi Qingqian and others came back.

"Have the matters in the house been arranged?" Young Master Qingqian looked at Liu Tao. He was a little surprised why Liu Tao left with Nangong Shi.

"It has been arranged! The rent has been paid!" Liu Tao bowed.

"Call him in!" Young Master Qingqian looked at Nangong Shi at the door.

"Young Master let you in!" Liu Tao walked out of the study and looked at Nangong Shidao who was waiting at the door.

Nangong Shi went into the study and saluted respectfully. Gongzi Qingqian told him to live in that courtyard in the future and not come back easily.

Nangong Shi took the order and left.

Xuanfei came back drunk at night. When the young master Qingqian smelled the wine, he knew he had walked in.

"Drinking alcohol harms your body!" Young Master Qingqian looked at Xuanfei with heartache. He used to drink, but never got himself drunk. Since Xiao Meng died, he almost always got drunk.

"Then find me another wife, I promise to quit drinking!" Xuan Fei was really drunk.
