"Qingchuan, you are confused, how could you be so disobedient to your father?!"

Li's mother, who had been ill for many years... her real name is Juanxiu, and she was originally a maid of the Li family. She had a romantic relationship with her because of Li Zongdao's drunkenness, and then gave birth to a child. She originally thought that her mother would be able to become a concubine by her son, but she gave birth to a daughter, but she didn't get what she wanted. Instead, she suffered from a difficult childbirth and barely survived, but her health was getting worse and worse. Now, she often needs to use alchemy to prolong her life, and the number of times she takes is getting more and more frequent.

Even though Li Qingchuan takes good care of his mother's health, it is an indisputable fact.

She can't be allowed to stay in this place again.

But when Li Qingchuan came to her happily tell her the good news that she had gotten rid of slavery...

Li's mother was shocked, and even brought great fear.

Li Qingchuan disagreed.

He said speechlessly: "As for mother? I think I am tolerant enough to use the entire Li family's life to exchange for 10,000 taels of gold and your freedom... Besides, I am his daughter after all. Even if I extort him, can he still kill me? My two brothers have lost more than 10,000 taels of gold over the years, right? I only have 10,000 taels of gold, and I have already given him a lot of face."

"But you...you don't know your father!"

Li's mother sighed and said, "Your father is not a broad-minded person. If you threaten him like this, he may not be as you wish!"

"That's not going well... He never cared about my existence anyway.

Li Qingchuan sneered: "If the soldiers come and the generals come and block the water, the soil will be covered. If he really dares to take action, I can't beat him, but I may not be afraid..."

"I hope everything is safe!"

Li's mother glanced at her arrogant daughter with pity, couldn't help but sigh, and silently begged the Buddha for blessing, hoping that the prince could really think about his father and daughter, and not make things too difficult for his daughter.

And at this time...

Li Zongdao ran all the way into the study.

Carefully lock the door.

Then he sat on the front seat of the study room, with a look of panic on his face, then took a deep breath, reached out and let out a small move...

A majestic illusory figure suddenly floated behind him, and the figure slowly radiated from an invisible aura, penetrated into the bookshelf, and then immediately dissipated into the invisible.

Li Zongdao was not surprised, but he continued to make the shadow behind him even more blurred...

After a moment.

The door of the study room slowly opened, and there was a secret secret passage inside.

Li Zongdao's body did not move, but the phantom behind him just stood up so strangely and walked in... It seemed like his soul was leaving his body!

The phantom walked in the secret passage, but it was a narrow passage.

When you reach the end, you can see a stone chamber about two feet in a radius.

The phantom gradually condensed, and its appearance was exactly the same as that of Li Zongdao.

He was waiting there quietly.

until……

After a moment, a white figure slowly emerged, as if it were as illusory as him, it seemed that it was not a physical one.

The figure said lightly: "I should have said that you should not disturb me if you have nothing to do... Are there any urgent things to do when you look for me so presumptuously?"

Li Zongdao knelt down respectfully and said, "It was the thing you entrusted me to do that has finally been done."

"Map of mountains, rivers, and country? Have you found it? Where?"

The white figure's voice became strange inexplicably.

"You probably know this...you should have known it?"

Li Zongdao carefully looked up at the white figure, thinking that if it fell into the palace, you would naturally know, but you knew it a long time ago, but you didn't say it, letting me run around like a headless fly.

He wanted to ask what was going on, but he didn't have the courage... he had to keep silent for the moment.

But the white figure suddenly laughed and sighed, "It's been several days, right? Prince... Chang'an is so big, so you can find a picture that was lost from your palace. It's okay if you haven't found the map of mountains, rivers and countries, but you have only found traces? You are much slower than I thought..."

"This...the villain is incompetent!"

Sweat beads oozing out from Li Zongdao's forehead. Sure enough, she had already known the whereabouts of the map of mountains, rivers and the country, and was just experimenting with her ability to do things. Now it seems that her ability obviously disappointed her!

"Hmph, you are incompetent enough... I will hand it over to you later. Everything will follow the plan. No mistakes are allowed, otherwise, you will not be able to do anything again. You will know the consequences!"

The white figure laughed a few times in a sarcastic voice and said, "Let's come to the palace later. Although it is not convenient to meet at this time as you and me, but... um..."

"It's okay!"

Li Zongdao said: "The villain has a daughter who is beautiful and well-behaved. She is planning to enter the palace to discuss whether she can be named a princess and let her marry her friends. Now, she can enter the palace for this reason!"

"Um...good too!"

Hearing the man agreeing, Li Zongdao showed a sarcastic smile on his face.

I sneered in my heart, I dared to disobey me so much. Do you think I can't do anything to you? Humph... I don't see you, and I'm not upset, so you can marry me thousands of miles away and make your last contribution to my father's political achievements hahahaha!

"what's on your mind?"

"Ah... this, the villain wants to..."

Only then did Li Zongdao realize that the most important thing at the moment is...

He asked hesitantly: "You have told the villain before that everyone who has seen the map of mountains, rivers and countries will be killed... Now that the map has arrived in the palace, I wonder if it is necessary?!"

"Necessary? Do you know how this picture came to the palace?"

"This... the villain doesn't know."

"Hmph, idiot, I don't know this, that, I don't know anything, what do you want to do?!"

The white figure had a little anger in his voice and shouted, "This map of mountains, rivers, and country was sent by Master Sanzang from the Brahma Zen Temple. You must have heard of Master Sanzang's previous title, right? He must have seen the map of mountains, rivers, and country. Do you want to kill him?"

"The villain is frightened!"

The name of Sanzang... Li Zongdao hurriedly knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

"Forget it, even though it is exposed, they are all irrelevant people. Don't worry about this matter. In the future, you can handle the map of mountains, rivers and the country with peace of mind... Half a month is the birthday, and there is not much time left for you!"

"Yes, the villain will never let you down this time!"

"I hope so... you will enter the palace later and take the picture away. I hope you don't let me worry about your affairs anymore."

The white figure just disappeared.

Seeing that there was no sound in front of him, Li Zongdao gently wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, slowly got up, and sighed: "This matter... finally came to an end. Damn it. I had already obtained the picture, but I still hid it and didn't say it. Instead, I blamed me. It's really..."

He didn't dare to continue talking, but just sighed, and his figure also disappeared...

And in the study room.

Li Zongdao, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes, and a look of relief appeared on his face.

After tapping his fingers on the table for a moment, he suddenly sneered coldly and murmured: "One hundred thousand taels of silver... Humph, one hundred thousand taels... It's really a good appetite, but I'm not a stingy person. I'll just fold all these 100 thousand taels to you into a dowry, hahahaha..."
