Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 540
In the last life, the Nine Princes succeeded to the throne, and Jin You came to the court to listen to the government, and the country's power deteriorated day by day.

The following decades were turbulent, but at least before her death, Darong was still there.This is due to one person, who turned the tide and allowed Darong to survive for decades under the encroachment of Beijin and Xiyue, and under the control of the new emperor's fatuousness and the empress dowager's relatives, Yuan Zhongchen.

This person was born in a poor family, amazingly talented, and had a chance to get three yuan, but he saw through the world in front of Qiu Wei, resolutely became a monk, and hid in this cloud and mist mountain.

Later, because of the sufferings of the world, he came out of the mountain and embarked on an official career. He was promoted to the chief assistant of the cabinet, supported the new emperor, seized power from Jin You, and revived the court.

This person is Daoist Hongxuan.

She remembered him and recognized her at a glance because after Yan Mu and Lu Changan were killed by Jin You successively, she had nothing to rely on, and was framed by Jin You one after another, almost losing her life several times.

She had no way out at that time, and it was Hongxuan who saved her from Jin You.

Afterwards, she had the opportunity to thank her in person, and asked Hongxuan why he helped her.

He sympathized and said: "Everyone in the world is pitiful, the poor are limited in their abilities, and they can help only one."

He has no utilitarianism, and only joined the world to save people.

Several Taoist priests came to the front, and Hongxuan, the leader, put the whisk on his chest, clasped his hands, and bowed.Then he and other Taoist priests pushed the carriage out of the pit.

Before Liu Yunxiang could thank him, he led his disciples away in the rain.

Back at the palace, Jinyan took the two children to change clothes, Liu Yunxiang took a shower, and had just packed herself when Yan Mu came back, also drenched in the rain.

Liu Yunxiang asked his servants to change a bucket of water again, and asked Yan Mu to wash in it.

"Why are you frowning?" Liu Yunxiang asked while helping Yan Mu put away his clothes.

Yan Mu sighed, "There is really no clue about the disappearance of the sixth girl in the Dingyuan Houfu. I originally wanted to look into the corpse case to see if I could find anything, but I really don't see any clues." There is only a trace of connection, except that one is the sixth girl of the Dingyuan Hou Mansion and the other is the maidservant next to the Da Furen."

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, "Then have you checked on the Zhuangzi of the Dingyuan Hou's Mansion? You can see Mrs. Hou, maybe you can ask her something."

"I went to Zhuangzi, but I didn't see Mrs. Hou. She said she was unwell and it was inconvenient to see others. This case has nothing to do with her. If she doesn't see her, I can't force her."

"really."

After the death of Marquis Dingyuan, this Mrs. Marquis lived in Zhuangzi because of excessive grief and depression, and she didn't care about anything.

"Today, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and blocked the gate of the palace. She insisted on giving me a deadline. I ignored her, and she went into the palace. Later, the emperor summoned me and asked me to give it to the Hou's mansion within ten days. An explanation."

"Ten days?" Liu Yunxiang frowned, "What if there is no clue?"

"It's time for me to change my position as the servant of the Ministry of Punishment."

"Oh, why does it sound like such a joke?"

"I think the emperor seems to be a little afraid of this old lady of the Hou Mansion."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "Probably because she is the mother of the Marquis of Dingyuan, Mrs. Yipin Gaoming, so she should give enough face."

"In short, the deadline is set to ten days."

Liu Yunxiang put down his clothes, and wiped Yan Mu's back with a handkerchief, "Then do you have a clue?"

"Have."

"what?"

"Follow the flow, if you can find it, hand it over, if you can't find it, hand it over to Wu Shamao."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "That's right, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment is not a fat job."

Liu Yunxiang continued to wipe Yan Mu, but Yan Mu realized it at this time, hurriedly covered his chest, and said in shock: "I'm taking a shower, why don't you go out?"

"A lady should serve her husband." Liu Yunxiang said kindly.

"unnecessary!"

"Your Highness, why are you so shy? I haven't seen anything on you."

Yan Mu blushed, "Boss... Anyway, you go out first."

Liu Yunxiang snorted, and threw the handkerchief into the water. At this moment, she noticed that there was a big scar on the place where Yan Mu's shoulder bone went down to his fist. Although it had grown well, the wound was grim. One can imagine how serious the injury was at that time. .

"When did you get hurt?" Liu Yunxiang put his hand on the wound.

Yan Mu's body trembled, "I fell off the cliff and hit a sharp bulge on the boulder with my back and got injured."

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, "That girl saved you, treated your injuries, and took care of you."

"Ah."

"Without her..."

"I am already dead."

Liu Yunxiang pursed her mouth tightly, she felt sorry for Yan Mu's injury, and at the same time felt sore and uncomfortable, "If there is a chance to meet my benefactor, I will definitely thank her well."

Yan Mu turned his head to look at Liu Yunxiang, looking through the water mist, her complexion seemed not very good, "You seem to be angry."

"Why am I angry?"

"..."

"Forget it, you can wash it yourself."

After speaking, Liu Yunxiang turned around and went out.

At night, Liu Yunxiang lay on the bed, thinking of a woman who took care of Yan Mu meticulously, even looked at his body when applying medicine to him, and the two of them depended on each other, the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

"You're angry." Yan Mu who was lying beside him said.

"No."

"Why do you like to be angry so much?"

"I said no!"

Yan Mu turned around, put his head on his hands, looked at Liu Yunxiang, "What do you want me to do, so you won't be angry?"

"I said I didn't, even if I got angry, do you care? Do you care?" Liu Yunxiang couldn't help shouting, but after shouting, he felt that he was being hypocritical, "Forget it."

She was about to turn her back when Yan Mu hugged her, then bowed his head and kissed her.

"Are you still angry?"

Liu Yunxiang's heart trembled suddenly, her whole body went numb, but it was just a kiss from him.She couldn't help licking her lips, he did it on his own initiative, and she wasn't drunk...

"You think I'm rare... um!"

Her lips were blocked again, Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened involuntarily, Yan Mu pressed over, holding her waist with one hand and dragging the back of her head with the other, this was lingering and intense.

Soon, Liu Yunxiang fell, but when she was intoxicated, Yan Mu stopped abruptly, turned over and lay back.

"Okay, go to sleep."

Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said, "What are you kissing me for? I've restrained myself quite well!"

"Keep it up."

"You...you don't want to?"

"I also restrain myself."

Liu Yunxiang rolled his eyes, they are a decent couple, hold back!
Yan Mu closed his eyes, obviously not wanting to think about it, but a picture couldn't help but pop up in his mind.He was trapped in the raging fire, watching a figure go away, he was left behind.

He knew this figure was Liu Yunxiang.

He has a knot in his heart, even if he loses his memory, he still remembers it.

But he must love her, because he has no feelings for other women, his eyes can only pretend to be her, and his body only longs for her.

In the next few days, Yan Mu didn't go out early and return late. He went to the yamen according to the time, and went home according to the time.

Seeing him like this, Liu Yunxiang guessed that he had an idea.

"From when we learned that Qin Fei asked Red Candle to kill a person, to the dismemberment case, to the disappearance of the sixth girl, and now I was forced to get involved, if these were Qin Feishi's schemes, then he must have planned A trap for me. I'm not leaving now, just leave it like this, I'm not in a hurry, but he is in a hurry, in order to let me fall into the trap, he will feed me the clues in due course."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "When he met you, he met his nemesis."

As Yan Mu expected, after five days of idleness, a clue was finally revealed.

Dahei hurried over, unable to catch his breath, "Your Highness, someone found...another severed arm on the barren hill outside the city!"
