Princess, please respect yourself!

Chapter 349
Changming Palace · Xinuang Pavilion.

Luo Xing, who was dressed in a unicorn uniform, knelt down on the thick velvet blanket and said, "The head of the Special Investigation Department of Chen Nan Ya comes to greet your Majesty. Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"

"Luo Aiqing, please be flat and give me a seat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Looking at Aiqing's rosy face, I guess the newlywed life must be very harmonious." Emperor Yongxi laughed and teased Luo Xing.

"What your Majesty said is that although I and Qingyi have only known each other for a short period of time, they are in love with each other. Naturally, they are in harmony with each other." Luo Xing replied without blushing and without a beating heart.

"Ai Qing is really sincere." Emperor Yongxi was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

"I am an honest person." Luo Xing doesn't mind being labeled an "honest person" at all. It will be wrong for any of you to bully honest people from now on.

"This time Luo Aiqing went to Tianlang Pass to serve as a welcoming envoy. The task was completed very well. On the way back, he also foiled the plot to assassinate the fourth prince of Xirong. I am very relieved." Emperor Yongxi said.

"It's all thanks to His Majesty's blessing."

"My dear, don't be self-effacing. Regarding the process along the way, although I have read the Eagle Letter report you sent back, some of it is still not detailed. Can you tell me about it?"

"Your Majesty, I have written a memorial. The details are on it. You will know it at a glance." Luo Xing took out the memorial that he had prepared, stood up and held it up.

"Oh, bring it up." Emperor Yongxi waved his hand, signaling Qixi to go over and get the memorial from Luo Xing's hand.

The memorial contained more than 1000 words. Yongxi unfolded it and said, "Ai Qing is a warrior. I didn't expect this word to be excellent."

"Your Majesty, this word does not belong to me, but to my wife. I dictated it and she copied it on my behalf." Luo Xing explained hurriedly.

"Why is this?"

"The word "Chen" is too ugly, I'm afraid it will stain His Majesty's eyes."

"Hahaha..." Emperor Yongxi couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He only felt that Luo Xing was much more interesting than many of his obedient ministers.

Above the court, it was too lifeless.

It took Emperor Yongxi a full quarter of an hour to read more than 1000 words. After reading, he closed it, opened it again and browsed it quickly, and then said: "Luo Aiqing, do you think Liuli was responsible for the assassination at Anyangdu Posthouse?" Was it ordered by the princess?"

"I dare not make any rash judgments, but judging from the number of martial arts methods used by the assassins, I recognize that they are somewhat similar to the Blue Sky Seal, the secret skill of the Tianlan Sect." Luo Xing said, "I know that this Blue Sky Seal is from the Tianlan Sect. Yun Lanfeng’s unique skills, so I can’t help but think of Her Highness Princess Liuli.”

"If this case is handed over to you for investigation, what are you going to do?"

"First check the identities and origins of these assassins, and then check who Princess Liuli has met and what she has done during this time. If this matter is really done by Princess Liuli, there is no way there is no trace, and we can send two first-class The grand master and a dozen masters of level three or above must not be ordinary forces. Now that I have captured more than ten people, I will definitely be able to get relevant information from them, and it will not be difficult to find out this case."

"Ai Qing abolished their martial arts skills?"

"Yes."

"Why is this?"

"They are assassins. If they still have some mobility, once they choose to commit suicide, I am afraid that I will get nothing, so I must ensure that they are alive. As long as they have no martial arts, it will be difficult to commit suicide." Luo Xing said, "Because I I am worried that their accomplices will come to rescue them at any time. Once they are still practicing, they will flee immediately after being rescued. For the sake of their martial arts cultivation, I will be a burden with a group of people who have no martial arts."

"You are thoughtful." Emperor Yongxi nodded and approved Luo Xing's explanation.

"I didn't think much about it at the time. They refused to speak, so I could only give them a little punishment. Anyway, after committing such a big crime, even people from the Tianlan Sect can't escape the punishment of the national law!" Luo Xing said again .

"Well said." Emperor Yongxi nodded slightly with satisfaction. The five holy places were above the secular imperial power. Who dared to offend the Tianlan Sect in the Great Zhou Dynasty?

The emperor had to swallow his anger when necessary.

"Luo Aiqing, you just got married. I should have given you a few days off to let you have a good rest. However, this case is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. The case must be solved as soon as possible. How about leaving the case to others?" Yong Emperor Xi said with a softer tone.

"I thank your Majesty for your kindness. However, in this case, I was the one who caught the assassins, and I was also the one who witnessed it. These assassins assassinated the fourth prince of Xirong when I was on my way back to Beijing as a welcoming envoy. If they succeeded or the fourth prince was injured, Even if they are not here for me, I will not let the person behind the scenes go!" Luo Xing said.

"What Aiqing said is right. Even if you are not the one to investigate this case, you are the one who experienced it and know the situation better than anyone else. I think it's too hard for you. We just got married and it's almost the New Year. You still let me When you investigate a case, you can’t use people like this." Emperor Yongxi said.

Although the words are a bit false, telling lies is much better than saying nothing at all. At least lying words are always more comfortable to listen to.

"I am young and have not yet slept on my merits. If I can do more for Your Majesty and the imperial court, I would be happy to do so."

"I can't even refuse you after what you said." Emperor Yongxi pretended to sigh, "Okay, I'll leave this case to you. I will tell Zhuo Aiqing that I won't send you any other tasks in the near future. ”

"I obey the order." Luo Xing hurriedly knelt down and said.

"This case involves a lot. If Aiqing encounters resistance, you can come directly to me and I will make the decision for you." Emperor Yongxi said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."

"Go back, I know you are newly married, so I won't let you continue talking." Emperor Yongxi smiled slightly and waved his hand.

"I retire!"

……

Not long after Luo Xing exited Nuan Pavilion, a figure walked out from behind the screen. It was Wei Wuya, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial City Department.

Wei Wuya was less than 60 years old, with jet black hair, and looked like a 40-year-old man. In comparison, Emperor Yongxi, who was younger than him, had a bit of gray on his temples.

The eunuchs in the palace have different interests, but when it comes to skin care and beauty, Wei Wuya can be regarded as the number one person. He is not handsome, just above average in appearance, but he is very good at taking care of himself. Therefore, all the concubines in the palace must Ask him for secret recipes and have an excellent relationship with the concubines in the harem.

And he was the eunuch used by Emperor Yongxi in Qiandi. After establishing the empire, he was naturally put in a high position, and the most important Imperial City Department naturally fell into his hands.

Wei Wuya was indeed capable. After the Imperial City Division came into his hands, it quickly grew and prospered. Even Wang Haifeng treated him with courtesy.

If it weren't for Wang Haifeng's seniority, high cultivation level, and great achievements, this most important position of Chief Ceremony Officer would have been replaced by Wei Wuya long ago.

Of course, the Imperial City Secretary is the emperor's minions around him and must be controlled by the most trusted person. Wei Wuya is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

For others, Emperor Yongxi really didn't dare to hand over such great power to the other party. The water in the inner courtyard of the palace is deep. Even if you are a noble, you can't do whatever you want, you can only do it slowly.

"Toothless, what do you think?" Emperor Yongxi asked. Luo Xing was right just now. Wei Wuya had been hiding behind the screen and heard the whole process.

"Luo Xing has a close relationship with Princess Liuli. If he handles this case, he will definitely find a way to exonerate the princess."

"Toothless, are you so convinced that Liuli did this?"

"I belong to the Tianlan Sect, and Her Royal Highness the Princess has a motive to destroy the peace and trade, which is beneficial to her but not harmful at all!" Wei Wuya lowered his head and said.

"But you have forgotten that Liuli knows Luo Xing's strength. Not only did the assassins of Tianlan Sect fail to complete the assassination, they were also counterattacked by Luo Xing. Almost all of them were captured alive, and all of them had lost their martial arts skills. "Why, these people are all the disciples of Yunlan Peak of Tianlan Sect. If it were you, would you do it?" Emperor Yongxi pondered slightly and asked in return.

"Your Majesty, what often seems to be unreasonable about you is actually reasonable. Even if it wasn't Princess Liuli's instigation, it could be the Tianlan Sect. Princess Liuli's master Yun Ni is the peak master of Yunlan Peak. She is It is not impossible for someone who strongly opposes the marriage to do something secretly?" "Peak Master Yunni is an extraordinary person. Even if she did it, is it possible for me to capture her and punish her?"

"If it is really Yun Ni's arrangement, then it is not an exaggeration to blame the princess." Wei Wuya said.

This is what Wei Wuya dared to say. If it were another person, Emperor Yongxi could hit him on the head with the tea cup he was playing with.

Emperor Yongxi understood what Wei Wuya meant. Regardless of whether Ye Liuli did it or not, as long as the fourth prince of Xirong was assassinated by the Tianlan Sect, she would be blamed in the end.

This is the most beneficial thing for him at the moment, because it will take Ye Liuli's hand and force her to make no more mistakes in the subsequent marriage. It can even be used as an excuse to imprison her freedom. Being troubled by Tianlan Sect.

Because within the Tianlan Sect, those who "agreed" had the upper hand in the debate on the matter of marrying and marrying Xirong.

Tianlan Sect's high-end silk weaving and dyeing industry needs to open the channel to the Western Continent, and the sea channel is in the hands of Nanchu and Momen. Tianlan Sect is just a supplier. Although it makes money, it has no say. Once Nanchu and Momen Without cooperation, Tianlan Sect's income will be reduced by at least one-third.

Therefore, the Tianlan Sect needs to go west from Tianlang Pass and go straight to the overland Silk Road on the Western Continent.

Once this road is open, we won't be afraid of the threat of Nan Chu and the Demon Sect cutting off the channel.

Therefore, the current goals and needs of the Tianlan Sect and the Great Zhou court are consistent, so what does it matter if a mere elite true female disciple is sacrificed? Besides, her identity is somewhat sensitive to both the Great Zhou and the Tianlan Sect.

Instead of killing her, he gave her a good marriage. She should be more grateful.

Emperor Yongxi was moved.

At this moment, the little eunuch outside the Nuan Pavilion came in with small steps with his head lowered, and knelt down with a thud: "Your Majesty, Princess Liuli wants to see you."

Emperor Yongxi and Wei Wuya looked at each other, a little surprised. Why did they say who was coming?
He gave Wei Wuya a wink and motioned for him to continue hiding behind the screen.

"Let her in."

A moment later, Ye Liuli walked in from the outside wearing plain clothes, lowered his head, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I apologize to you, Ye Liuli."

"Liuli, why are you giving such a great gift?" Emperor Yongxi stepped down from the throne, came over with a pleasant look, and stretched out his hand to help Ye Liuli up.

"I made a mistake, and I will certainly be punished!"

"What's your fault? Why don't I know?"

"Anyangdu Posthouse assassinated the fourth prince of Xirong and his party who came to Zhou Dynasty. The assassins were from our Tianlan Sect." Ye Liuli said.

"How do you know this assassin is from the Tianlan Sect?" Emperor Yongxi asked with a slight frown.

"When I heard the news, I sent Mr. Su to investigate. I found out that it was really from our Tianlan Sect. Moreover, there were already people outside spreading rumors that this matter was done by me. I knew that I could not ignore the relationship, so I could only Come and apologize to His Majesty!" Ye Liuli explained.

"Is that you?" Emperor Yongxi asked.

"Does it matter whether it is yes or no, Your Majesty?" Ye Liuli said, "This happened. The assassin is a member of our Tianlan Sect. Apart from Nanchu, the only person who has the most motive to assassinate is Chen!"

"So, you admit that you did it?"

"I don't want to admit it, but is it useful?" Ye Liuli asked.

"I have issued an order to have Luo Xing, the head of Nanya, investigate the case thoroughly. Liuli, please go back and wait for the news for the time being." Emperor Yongxi said calmly.

"I obey!" Ye Liuli bowed before turning around and leaving.

……

"Princess Liuli did this on purpose, your majesty must not believe it." As soon as Ye Liuli left, Wei Wuya came out and said loudly.

"Am I that easy to believe?"

"Old slave made a mistake." Wei Wuya said hurriedly.

"Aren't you always monitoring Liuli's activities in Beijing? Has she done anything unusual recently?" Emperor Yongxi asked.

"Although the Imperial City Secretary has been paying attention to the activities of His Highness Liuli, Su Manqing beside her is a first-level Grand Master, and it is impossible to fully control her actions. However, during this period, there was nothing unusual about Her Highness Liuli, at least she never left The same goes for Su Manqing in the capital." Wei Wuya explained.

"They have never left. Is there no trustworthy person who can do things for her secretly?"

"This old slave hasn't discovered it yet..."

"Then go check it out. I want the exact information." Emperor Yongxi said, "Let Nanya suspend her duties and reflect on her mistakes at home. No, living in the palace, a princess, living in the house of a minister, what's the point? Decency?"

"Old slave obeys the order."

I didn't care before, but now that something happened, it's an excellent excuse.

……

The news of Ye Liuli's suspension soon reached Luo Xing's ears. This was expected. If something like this happened, it was impossible to pretend that nothing happened at all.

But Emperor Yongxi ordered Ye Liuli to move back to the palace, which was a bit unexpected. It seemed that the emperor still suspected that Ye Liuli was responsible.

Suspension, grounding.

It seemed like a protective measure, but it actually didn't give Ye Liuli a chance to prove his innocence.

It would be difficult for Luo Xing to see Ye Liuli in person. Although Su Manqing could still come and go freely, she would definitely be closely monitored.

The "Nan Ya No. [-]" project is still going on, and it has achieved remarkable results during this period. Using Luo Xingjiao's methods, many corrupt elements and Nan Chu informants were uncovered within Nan Ya. By following the clues, many Nan Chu spies were arrested. It didn't reach the level of Nanchu Jinling's crackdown on a large-scale spy network, but it finally gave off a bad breath.

In recent years, Nanya has really been living on his merits. He has been too negligent and allowed Nanchu spies to penetrate so deeply in Luojing.

Not to mention that the homes of high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court have Southern Chu secret spies infiltrated into their homes. At least many ministers, Chineda, have informants of the Southern Chu Jinyiwei around them. Some of them don’t even know it, and have become Southern Chu secret agents due to seduction or inducement. The spy's informant revealed a lot of confidential information to Nanchu.

In addition to the Jin Yiwei, the Nanchu inner guards were also active in Luojing. Many matters were handled by Wang Miao when Luo Xing was away. If Wang Miao couldn't handle it, he would report it to Yan Fang or directly ask Zhuo Chunfeng for approval.

As soon as Luo Xing returned to Nanya, he was reading the files. He didn't stop until he saw that it was dark and his eyes were a little dazzled.

According to the rules, he can take at least half a month's wedding leave, but he has no time to rest at all, and there are only four days until New Year's Eve.

The so-called New Year's Eve is the Chinese New Year's Eve in the previous life, which is almost the same.
