“Have you forgotten the rules?” The leader raised her head and looked at her coldly.
“I’m sorry. I’ve crossed the line.”
“Alright, go back. Before you complete the infiltration mission, just in case, don’t come over again.”
“Yes, I will take my leave.” Xiaxiang bowed, turned around, and left the courtyard.
However, Zhou Ying did not leave. Instead, she waited a while and left after confirming that the leader wasn’t contacting the mastermind.
The organization that Xiaxiang belonged to was very large. Zhou Ying wondered who the person behind it was.
After dinner, Zhou Ying looked at the small courtyard again when Gu Chengrui was bathing.
This time, there was only the old granny guarding the door.
The young woman was nowhere to be found. However, Zhou Ying did not care about her whereabouts.
Instead, she began a carpet search of the small courtyard. She found two books, a few letters, and a box of silver in a secret compartment.
She took the letters and the two books into her inters.p.a.ce.
After Gu Chengrui returned, she asked him to keep a lookout while she entered her inters.p.a.ce and looked at the goods.
The two books were rosters, which recorded the name, gender, residence, and current position of their spies.
There were more than a hundred people in the two books.
However, several residences belonged to the same masters, so not many people were spied on.
Zhou Ying went straight into her study room in the villa, scanned the two books, and saved them onto her computer.
She opened the letters, glanced at them, and noticed they were filled with information about ongoing missions. She scanned it into the computer again.
After she was done, she folded them back and put them back in their original place through her inters.p.a.ce before leaving.
“Did something happen?” Gu Chengrui asked when he saw her coming out.
“I guess so. I’ll take a bath first. Let’s talk in the inters.p.a.ce.” She then turned around and walked out of the bedroom, asking Niu Lirong to prepare hot water for her bath.
After he was done, she asked him to leave.
She drank a cup of white wine after taking her bath. After ensuring no one was in the courtyard, she brought Gu Chengrui into her inters.p.a.ce.
Then, she told him about her discovery today.
“There are only three possibilities. King Hui, King Kang, and the Emperor.
“We don’t know which side it is, so let’s look at the content we got. With this information, we can know who it is.
Gu Chengrui entered the study room of the villa with her.
After that, they printed everything out and read it all.
Gu Chengrui focused on the three recent missions. The first was to confirm if Consort Rui was pregnant, which a spy in Lord Sun’s Residence confirmed.
The next task was to get rid of Sun Miaoke’s child.
The last was to kill King Kang’s daughter, but it quickly became a quest to sow discord between the main and secondary consorts.
There were also different missions in the various manors, all aimed at controlling and sowing discord between the masters.
After Gu Chengrui finished reading it, he said, “It’s most likely the Empress’s people or the Marquis of Ding’an.
“I didn’t expect their intelligence network to be this ma.s.sive. No wonder they dared to be so arrogant.”
“Their plans are all so sinister. There’s no difference between them and Consort Shu and the others.
“Also, this means Consort Shu and the others also had an equally large intelligence network. Otherwise, how could they contend with the Empress?”
“Both of them are pot calling the kettle black.. How could the wife of an Emperor be simple?” Gu Chengrui turned his head and asked, “Do you think we should remind Sun Miaoke?”
