From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 857

August 11, Fuzhou Baochuan Factory, on the deck of the Henggao ship.

Guan Lu looked at the rough sea and analyzed the situation on Dongfan Island.

His tone was very solemn: "We can't guess what happened over there, but one thing is certain, that is, Lucas must not be allowed to see the prince in any case."

"This action is very bold and full of weirdness, which is very similar to the prince's previous style of behavior. Chu Feifan is not a material for acting. He acted exaggeratedly when asked to go swimming. Everyone can see that he is holding back his anger."

"Based on this assumption, we have to estimate that the exploration team has been found to have deliberately landed on the island."

"Therefore, the other party is likely to judge that the prince is the leader by observing Chu Feifan."

"Then... will Lucas verify his identity?"

"I don't know, and I can't guess. The situation is constantly changing, and the game is also very subtle."

"But we must help."

At this point, he turned around and smiled: "So, this matter can only rely on Miss Li."

Li Yu'an said: "It's been prepared."

She looked back at the cabin and said: "Come out!"

A young man with a figure very similar to Zhou Yuan walked out of the cabin.

The strange thing is that his face is also Zhou Yuan's.

Guan Lu widened his eyes, looked at him carefully, and then exclaimed: "I can't see any flaws, but the expression and demeanor are different."

"Miss Li's pigskin mask is indeed well made."

Li Yu'an sighed: "I remember his appearance very well, of course there will be no mistakes, but... demeanor and expression cannot be taught."

"This can't be changed at all in a short time, including the voice."

"So we can't be too close, otherwise it will be easy to be discovered."

Guan Lu nodded and said: "I understand, just give the other party a signal."

...

"What! Young man!"

After hearing the report, Lucas stood up and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He said in a deep voice: "The leader of the exploration team is actually a young man? Ha! This further confirms our judgment!"

"The exploration team is a team that requires extreme experience. The leader is often an old man with rich experience."

"It is impossible for a young man to be a leader. This is not an exploration team at all. It is more like an army."

At this point, he felt something was wrong.

Falling into silence and deep thought.

After a long time, he suddenly raised his head and said in a lost voice: "No! Even if it is an army, how can such an important mission be commanded by a young man..."

"Unless, this young man is... Zhou Yuan!"

At this point, he was already trembling with excitement.

Zhou Yuan! Yes! It is very likely Zhou Yuan!

He always likes to go deep into the enemy's territory alone! He always likes to control the situation personally!

He did this when he recovered the Central Plains of the Jin Dynasty, and he also did this when he suppressed the southwest of the Jin Dynasty.

Including the confrontation with the Jurchens, he once went to the enemy camp alone.

When he was rectifying the salt business, he also pretended to be a salt merchant.

Personally leading the team and going to the island to plan, this is indeed his method and style.

Really... what is the old saying of the Great Jin Dynasty? It takes no effort to find it after searching everywhere!

Capturing Zhou Yuan alive means victory! It means everything!

Thinking of this, Carlos suddenly understood.

Uprising! An undercover organized an uprising!

Zhou Yuan planned to go to the island, wanting to meet up with the undercover, personally lead the uprising, and defeat us from inside and outside.

He really thought far ahead! What a risk!

Unfortunately, I have been studying him, and I have found a flaw!

Lucas immediately shouted: "Prepare the horses! Prepare the horses for me! I want to see the exploration team!"

He rushed out of the mansion and happened to meet another guard running over.

"Captain! The Dajin Henggao ship is hovering outside the island and has sent out flag signals, saying that their King Zhongwu wants to discuss something with you."

Hearing this, Lucas' eyes widened and he lost his voice and said, "Who? King Zhongwu? Zhou Yuan?"

He didn't land on the island? That shouldn't be the case! Who else could the young leader be?

No! It's also possible that he didn't land on the island, after all, it's too risky.

No...no...others may not be good at leading an uprising.

Anyway! Just go and see!

Lucas immediately walked towards the dock, then boarded his battleship, the Druette, and headed out.

In the sun, above the waves, the Henggao ship soon came into view, with two cruisers escorting it on its left and right.

The other party sent out flag signals, wanting to board with Lucas to discuss things.

Lucas frowned and said in a low voice: "Agree to board! But don't get too close, and listen to my orders at any time!"

The two ships, getting closer and closer.

Fortunately, the bow was facing, otherwise we would have to worry about the other side suddenly opening fire.

Lucas soon saw the familiar figure standing on the deck of the Henggao ship.

Wearing a python robe, standing with his hands behind his back, and standing next to the beautiful oriental woman.

It was him! It was Zhou Yuan!

He actually didn't land on the island! So cautious!

Fortunately, he came out to take a look, otherwise he really had to chase the exploration team, hundreds of miles in the hot weather, that would be a big pain.

Lucas shouted: "Your Excellency Zhongwu King, what do you want to discuss!"

"Zhou Yuan" didn't say anything, just waved his hand lightly.

The flag signal was sent out, asking Lucas to board the Henggao ship.

This is not the time, Lucas certainly won't risk his life again.

He narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Where are the other battleships? Haven't they arrived yet?"

The subordinate said, "They are coming, but it will take time."

So Lucas said, "Lord Zhongwu, I dare not board your ship again now. It's too risky. Why don't we take a small boat and communicate at sea?"

Zhou Yuan turned around and walked directly into the cabin.

The Henggao ship raised its sails and turned slowly, not giving the Dutch a chance to double-team.

Lucas gritted his teeth and said, "What does this stinky boy mean!"

He pondered for a moment, and suddenly saw that the beautiful oriental woman was still on the deck.

No!

This woman and Zhou Yuan are inseparable. When they boarded the ship, they hugged each other and held each other's hands.

Just now, they had no contact at all! They were suddenly not close enough!

Zhou Yuan went into the cabin, but the woman didn't go in to accompany him. Weird!

Lucas suddenly woke up and said in a trembling voice: "Yes, yes, yes! Disguise! It's disguise!"

"Zhou Yuan used it during the military exercise! When retaking the Central Plains of Dajin, Zhou Yuan also used it!"

"It seems that this woman is the one who did it! This is consistent with the previous intelligence. It is the woman from the heretical church."

"The more you try to cover up, the more obvious it is! Hahaha! You can't fool me!"

"That's the fake Zhou Yuan! The real Zhou Yuan is on the island! He is the leader of the exploration team!"

Lucas felt that the blood in his body was boiling.

He shouted: "Turn around! Hurry to the shore! I want to go to the exploration team!"

This time, he must catch Zhou Yuan!

In the battle of wisdom, he will not suffer from anyone's loss.
