Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 261
"Xu Aiqing, I know what you mean," Empress Dowager Lin seemed to have been prepared, and immediately said unambiguously, "You suspect that the instigator behind this time is Li Ao, right!?"

"Ah?" Xu Zun quickly got up and cupped his fists, "I dare not."

He said he didn't dare, but Xu Zun secretly admired it.Empress Dowager Lin's guess was not bad at all, she was just doubting the Emperor Daxuan.

Because, from the perspective of vested interests, the biggest beneficiary of the assassination of Queen Mother Lin is him!

As long as the queen mother dies, he can continue to be the emperor without any worries, and he can rule the world without any scruples from now on.

"In that case, it will prove that I have misread the person," Queen Mother Lin said solemnly standing behind the curtain, "Ao'er was brought up by me, and only I know his temperament best.

"Let him sharpen for another ten years, and he will never have such a meticulous mind.

"If I really had such thoughts, I would have handed over this world to him long ago with peace of mind!"

Oh?
Xu Zun thought quickly, although he didn't know the inside story, what the queen mother said was indeed reasonable.

Firstly, the emperor does not have that ability; secondly, he is under the absolute surveillance of the queen mother, and it is impossible to hide anything from the queen mother; lastly, he is already the son of heaven, if he really wants to rule the world, he must endure it well , why take the risk?

However, since the queen mother said so, Xu Zun also captured important information from it, and asked again:

"Empress Dowager, so you are the only ones who know about the secret room of the Wanfu Palace, you and the Holy One? Is it true that no one else knows?"

The queen mother sized up Xu Zun first, and seemed a little surprised by Xu Zun's rhetorical question.

After that, she nodded and admitted: "That's right, Ao'er was playing in the Wanfu Palace when she was young, and accidentally touched the mechanism, so she knew about it.

"I also warned him, so no third person will know about this matter!"

"Then..." Xu Zun asked again, "Lin...um..."

He wanted to ask Manager Lin if he knew, but he realized something was wrong when the words reached his lips.

If it gets to Mr. Lin's ears, it's hard for him to defend himself.

Lin Chaofeng is narrow-minded and must not be offended.

"I know..." However, Empress Dowager Lin once again saw through Xu Zun's mind and said, "Xu Zun, the reason why I asked you to handle the Xuanmen rebellion case is because you have no attachment in the court. will not be influenced by others.

"So, you should understand that Ben Gong likes to hear the truth!"

"Yes..." Xu Zun said yes, but he still didn't continue the topic.

"Okay," said the queen mother, waving her hand, "Boss Lin is my own younger brother, so I, as an elder sister, naturally know how capable and capable he is.

"Don't worry, this person is self-willed and has a small belly, and he will never do such a big thing."

Ok……

In fact, Xu Zun had expected it a long time ago, because Lin Chaofeng was not a shrewd and scheming person, so he was reused by the Queen Mother.

Such a loyal and loyal person is the most suitable to be used as a gun to contain those court ministers.

Therefore, even if he made a major mistake in the Xuanmen assassination incident, it is impossible for him to be dismissed by the queen mother.

"Xu Zun," the queen mother saw that Xu Zun was still silent, her expression gradually became serious, "Who are you still doubting?"

Xu Zun immediately blushed, there were naturally others he doubted, but how dare he say it?
For example, everyone knows that Empress Dowager Lin also has a second prince, Li Yi.

However, the second prince is the Queen Mother Nilin, whoever dares to mention it without authorization will be demoted at the slightest, and at the most serious risk of life.

It is said that the second prince had mistakenly taken poison in a court incident and became demented.

However, these are just rumors, who can guarantee that he has nothing to do with Taoism?

Could it be that he was well a long time ago and secretly plotted this catastrophe?

In addition, the Queen Mother also has a witty and intelligent daughter, Princess Ronghua.

Although the princess is already married, how can she be guaranteed that she is not involved in this matter?

Up to now, Xu Zun has already smelled the smell of family affection. The mysterious commander who took advantage of Qi Xianger's hatred and hid in the depths of the palace should be the Queen Mother's close relative.

Otherwise, it is impossible for him to escape the eyeliner of so many empress dowagers.

But... Having said that, there seems to be another person who seems to be under serious suspicion even though he is excluded from the family relationship, right?
Thinking of this, a domineering name came to Xu Zun's mind.

"Queen Mother," Xu Zun asked, "I don't know, about the iron coffin..."

As a result, just after Xu Zun said these few words, the Queen Mother immediately yelled and said, "Shut up!!! Oh..."

Xu Zun shuddered in shock, he didn't understand at all, how could the empress dowager have such a huge reaction?
The iron coffin... Didn't the Queen Mother want to investigate the matter of the iron coffin?Is it okay to ask?
"No, no..." Empress Dowager Lin also realized her gaffe, and immediately waved her hands to explain, "I mean, the iron coffin case has nothing to do with Taoism, and there is no need to investigate that case again!"

This……

Xu Zun was confused for a moment, talking in his heart, how can you be so sure?

Qiu Dingtian has been a national teacher for so many years and has often been in and out of the palace. Now that he can't prove his life and death, then naturally there are suspicions?

Also, even if he is dead, doesn't it mean that he has many disciples, and his disciples are all over the government and the public?
Is there something tricky here?
"Okay," Queen Mother Lin regained her composure, and said to Xu Zun seriously, "I've told you enough!
"Xu Zun, although you have merit in this Taoist assassination, you cannot be blamed.

"If you can find out who is Qi Xiang'er's behind-the-scenes commander, then I can grant you a chance as an extremely talented minister.

"If you can't find out, then you can weigh the consequences yourself!"

"Yes," what else could Xu Zun say, he immediately clasped his fists in promise, "I will do my best."

"By the way," Empress Dowager Lin thought of something, and asked, "Who is that woman with extremely high martial arts who saved my palace from many rebels? What's her name?"

"She's called Ku Niang, she's..." Xu Zun replied without thinking, "She's a friend of Weichen's, and he's very loyal!"

"Oh, it's rare to see such a strong woman," said the Queen Mother. "I heard, who is Mao Jifang's apprentice?"

"What?" Xu Zun was taken aback, and quickly answered truthfully, "I don't know, she... is taciturn, not very talkative, especially about her life experience."

At that time, Xu Zun was protecting Longzhu, so naturally he didn't hear what Gongsun Yelang and others said.

However, Queen Mother Lin heard the name Mao Jifang through the gap in the secret room.

"Okay," the Queen Mother shook her head and said, "She has done a great job in saving her. I wanted to make her a Qilin Guard General, but since the origin is unknown, let's talk about it later."

"Yes!" Xu Zun's forehead was sweating, fortunately the queen mother didn't want to mention the iron coffin, otherwise I was really afraid that she would ask her further.

Mao Jifang...

Xu Zun remembered that Zhao Yu and Huo Anu had mentioned this name, and Zhao Yu still thought that this person was number one in the world...
