Chapter 519
Through the window, a spider could be seen between the branches and leaves, and an insect stuck to the spider web as it struggled to break free.
Yuan Minggang presented the ledger to the emperor, who casually turned over a few pages and then asked indifferently. Where did this ledger come from?
Without waiting for Lord Chengen to answer, the emperor continued. Did Tang Fengchun bring it from Huahong Tea House?
The emperors words were still addressed to Lord Chengen and did not even bother to glance at Gu Jing.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
Everyone knows that Tang Fengchun was the second princes consort, so several courtiers in the imperial study instinctively looked at Gu Jing.
Even Lord Chengen was no exception.
The emperor glanced calmly at Gu Zezhi, but the latter seemed unaware and was still looking at the spider web outside through the window.
The struggle of the insect caused the cobweb to tremble, and a spider that size of a fingernail came out from the shadows and nimbly crawled towards the trapped inset along the thin cobweb, getting closer to its prey
This stance and pace were determined to win!
The emperor leaned back, resting his back on the back of the chair, and made a gesture to Yuan Minggang again, Yuan Minggang, you continue.
Yuan Minggang then continued to report, The Imperial Guards have already raided the Huahong Teahouse, and have also just copied a secret letter sent by Wang Yu from Yuzhou, confirming that this restaurant is Wang Yus stronghold in the capital, specializing in transmitting news for Yuzhou.
A total of more than fifty people were captured this time following the trail, and are currently being interrogated in the Imperial Prison.
The fact that Wang Yu had laid out intelligence points in the capital was something they had also guessed long ago. However, Wang Yus intelligence hideout was not only secretly set up, but they also always changed places and were very cautious.
Imperial guards have been trying to catch their tails for a long time but have not been able to find it; rather, there was no starting point at all.
