Chapter 211 Conspiracy
"Master, your disciple is here to see you."

Haitang Duoduo came to the bald old man and bowed respectfully.

Although the bald old man in front of him looks ordinary, his real identity is one of the few great masters in the world, Ku He.

He is also an unrivaled warrior who guards Northern Qi.

After hearing Haitang Duoduo's voice, Ku He slowly turned around and smiled at her, with a peaceful look on his face.

"It's Xiao Duoduo who's here."

"Wait for me for a moment, I will finish watering it soon."

Haitang Duoduo nodded and said, "Master, please take your time. I'm not in a hurry."

Afterwards, Haitang Duoduo waited by the side.

at this time,

A young man came from not far away, holding a few jugs of wine in his hands.

"Oh, Junior Sister is here too."

"It seems that I am really lucky today."

Haitang Duoduo turned around and looked at the person who came, with a smile on her face, and said:
"It turns out to be the eldest senior brother."

"Big Brother, why are you so free today? Instead of busying yourself with your official duties, you come here."

The person who came was none other than her senior brother Lang Tao.

He is also one of the only ninth-rank masters in the entire Northern Qi.

It's just that we have different paths and cannot work together.

She is the Emperor Zhan Doudou's person, while the eldest brother is the Empress Dowager's person.

Therefore, even though they are senior and junior brothers and sisters, they are in a hostile relationship.

Lang Tao smiled at Haitang Duoduo and said, "I have a day off today, so I came to see Master."

"I just didn't expect to meet Junior Sister."

"I brought some good wine this time, would you like to try it together?"

Haitang Duoduo directly waved her hand to refuse, saying: "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother, I don't feel like drinking recently."

"Since you want to drink with Master today, I'll come over another day."

After saying that, she turned to Ku He and said, "Master, please go ahead. I have other things to do here, so I'll leave first."

"I'll come see you again in a few days."

Ku He scooped a ladle of water, poured it on the vegetables, and said, "Okay, let's get busy."

Haitang Duoduo bowed to Kuhe again before turning around and leaving.

However, she did not say much to Lang Tao before she left.

Lang Tao didn't care. He shrugged his shoulders, pretended not to see it, and sat down at the table next to him.

Soon, Ku He finished watering the plants and came to Lang Tao.

"Why, Xiao Duoduo is still hostile to you?"

Lang Tao opened the wine jar, took out two cups, filled each with wine, and said:
"This is normal."

"Junior Sister has always been on the Emperor's side, and I am on the Empress Dowager's side."

"We are enemies, so it's normal to have hostility."

“Hehe…” Ku He picked up the wine glass, took a big sip, and said, “That’s Xiao Duoduo, she doesn’t know your true identity.”

"Otherwise, she will definitely change her mind about you."

Lang Tao also drank a glass of wine and shook his head, "Now is not the time."

"When the time comes, all the reasons will be revealed."

"Not letting Junior Sister know now is also a disguised way of protecting her, isn't that wonderful?"

"Well, you really didn't let me down." Ku He smiled and raised his glass to drink again.

After a while.

Ku He put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Didn't those guys who came from Nanqing want to cooperate with Xiao Duoduo?"

"How are things going now?"

After taking another sip of wine, Lang Tao said, "I'm not sure about the details."

"However, a few days ago, one of them suddenly left Beiqi and should have returned to Nanqing."

"Just today, that person came back again and found Junior Sister."

Lang Tao put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "In my opinion, they should know that the cooperation has been reached." Ku He pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "This is the best."

"The Queen Mother hasn't made any major moves yet. The little emperor should be fine in the near future."

"However, they don't have much time left."

"I understand." Lang Tao nodded and said, "I know what to do."

Ku He smiled and said, "Okay, let's drink first."

“We’ll talk about the next thing later.”

……

Nanqing, Kyoto City.

Li Chengze brought Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao out of the palace and walked slowly on the street.

Several days have passed since the last battle between the three grandmasters, and the city is still safe and sound.

He originally thought that after this incident,
Whether it is Emperor Qing, Fan Jian or Chen Pingping, they should all create something.

As a result, after waiting for several days, there was still no response.

This made Li Chengze a little confused.

Are they afraid?

Or is there a more powerful conspiracy plotting in secret?

However, no matter which one it was, it was meaningless to him now.

As long as some time passes,
Everything would be meaningless once his heavy cavalry was fully equipped.

Afterwards, Li Chengze walked on the street for a while and found that the public security in the city was much better than before.

The number of soldiers patrolling the streets alone has increased three or four times.

It seems that they are indeed a little scared.

Li Chengze smiled without saying anything, turned around and walked towards the street next to him.

After a while.

Li Chengze turned several corners on the street, turned three or four times, and finally stopped in front of a door.

"Ah Xiao, go up and knock on the door."

As soon as Li Chengze finished speaking, Li Cunxiao quickly walked forward to the dilapidated door and knocked on it.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

After Li Cunxiao finished knocking on the door, the door was immediately opened a crack, revealing the young man's face.

When the young man saw that it was Li Chengze who called him, he opened the door.

"Your Highness."

Li Chengze nodded, and strode into the courtyard with Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao.

Then, what came into view was a desolate yard.

The walls around were moldy and covered with moss. Even the yard was overgrown with weeds. It didn't look like anyone lived there.

The young man just now walked quickly to a place covered with grass, bent down and squatted.

Then he found a rope from the ground and pulled it hard.

A 'click' sound.

A secret door immediately appeared on the originally flat ground, with a stone staircase inside.

"Your Highness, please." The young man said respectfully to Li Chengze.

Li Chengze nodded again and followed the young man into the secret door.

Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao did not follow him down, but waited outside.

Soon, Li Chengze went down to the dungeon and saw a large area of ​​fire. There were quite a few people inside, busying themselves.

In their hands, they are making parts for guns.

"Your Highness."

The people who were originally busy, upon seeing Li Chengze coming down, immediately bowed and greeted him.

Li Chengze waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about me, just keep busy with your own things."

"I just came over to take a look."
