Chapter 397 A Warm Afternoon (1)
Emperor Qin Wu turned his eyes, stared at an official and said, "Meng He, how is the trial in the clan's mansion? And who killed more than a hundred people in Jingtianhou's mansion, can you track it down?"

"Reporting to the emperor, the minister is conducting a detailed investigation, but the Jingtian Hou Mansion was burned down by a big fire. It is not easy to thoroughly investigate the murderer." Meng Hegang complained involuntarily, but he saw the expression in Qin Wudi's eyes. Immediately changed his words, "However, I will do my best to find out the matter in the shortest possible time!"

"Well, with your words, I'll be waiting for the good news!" Emperor Qin Wu's face softened, and he closed his sleepy eyes. "Okay, if there is nothing wrong, everyone, please step back!"

"Yes, I will leave!" A group of ministers came out in a file. Meng He, who was walking at the back, had cold sweat on his face. He stretched out his hand to touch it, but his legs covered by the red court uniform continued to tremble uncontrollably.

"Master Meng, please stay!"

A very magnetic voice caught Meng He's footsteps in time, he turned to look, his face immediately showed a respectful expression, "I have seen His Highness the Seventh Highness, I don't know why the Seventh Highness called my Highness?"

Murong Yi smiled lightly, his face full of gentleness and elegance, "Your Majesty Meng, don't be nervous, this prince is only here to assist you in investigating the case of extermination of the Feng family and the Jingtian Hou Mansion under the orders of his father." He raised his eyes Glancing at the passing crowd, he lowered his head and continued, "This is not a place to talk. If your lord doesn't dislike it, why don't you accompany me to Yongtai Palace for a cup of tea?"

Meng He secretly guessed in his heart, why did the Seventh Highness invite him to tea suddenly?Although he was full of puzzlement in his heart, after all, he had been in the court full of intrigue for many years, so naturally he would not show it on his face.

The smile on the corner of His Highness Seventh Prince's mouth deepened, and he waved his hand with the folding fan together and said, "Master Meng please!"

"Your Highness, please!"

The two of them were humbled, and they headed towards Yongtai Palace together.

And after they walked a hundred meters, a black figure flashed in an instant, glanced at the backs of the two people who were going away, their indifferent eyes were calm, and after taking Murong Yi and Meng He away, they immediately disappeared in a flash. A hundred flowers bloom, leaving only a breeze to blow by!
In the study

Murong Yu held Xia Qingge in his arms, and both of them closed their eyes for a lunch break. The snow-white velvet blankets gently covered the two of them, outlining a peaceful and beautiful picture.

The man in gray standing outside the door glanced at the picture inside the house, hesitated for a moment, as if hesitating whether to break the warm picture.

"Come in!" Murong Yu spoke first when Wuming was about to turn around and leave.

Wuming shook his head, and there was an imperceptible wry smile on his face covered by a silver mask. How could he forget that his master's martial arts had already reached a state of perfection? He stood outside the door for so long, how could his master not know? ?
"Subordinates see master!"

"Hmm! How's the investigation going?" Murong Yu looked down at the woman in his arms full of doting, and saw that her eyes were still closed, and with a chuckle, she raised Shunzi, who was a bit lazy and elegant like a Persian cat, He looked at Wuming who was standing beside him.

Wuming lightly swept the woman nestled in Murong Yu's arms, hesitated for a while, and said in a low voice: "This subordinate has already followed the instructions of the master, and sent some Wushengmen to track down the hidden guards sent by the emperor. With the master's plan in advance, the route of the royal guard's pursuit is completely disrupted."

"Well! Well done, what happened in the hall today?" Murong Yu blinked lightly, his face was calm and calm, but the corners of his mouth curled into an elegant and indifferent smile.

"This morning, after the emperor came to the court, he summoned civil and military officials of the third rank and above in the imperial study. General Cao and old Mr. Zhuge interceded for Master Xia. Finally, the emperor issued a verbal order to let Master Xia choose a day to send troops to the frontier. , to assist General Zheng in resisting the enemy army." Wuming lowered his head and narrated carefully.

Murong Yu thought for a moment, and his usually elegant and calm face couldn't help showing a wave of turbulence: "Why did Mr. Zhuge participate in this court meeting? Who invited him into the palace?"

"Reporting to my lord, as far as I know, it seems that the emperor sent His Royal Highness Seventh Prince to invite Mr. Zhuge. However, His Royal Highness made a special trip to Xining County Prince's Mansion before going, and Xu Shizi, who has been ill for a long time, will not leave the manor. Together, please go to the Zhuge Mansion to persuade Mr. Zhuge."

"Oh? Xu Ziyu has gone too? This is a novelty!" Everyone in the capital knows that Xu Shizi and Zhuge Ming of the Prince's Mansion of Xining County are old friends. Murong Yi invited Xu Ziyu to lobby Zhuge Ming, which is indeed much more effective. When I met Xu Ziyu in Bailu Academy a while ago, the smile on Murong Yu's face deepened a lot.

"Yes, this subordinate is also very strange. When will His Highness the Seventh Highness and Xu Shizi become so close!"

Murong Yu smiled lightly, and changed the subject after a while: "Is there any news about that person?"

Wuming immediately understood what Murong Yu was referring to, cupped his hands in shame and apologized and said: "This subordinate is incompetent, so far there is no further clue to this matter, but master, your analysis is very good, with your subordinate's investigation during this period I am absolutely sure that things 20 years ago were definitely not as simple as they appeared on the surface!"

Murong Yu nodded, and when he raised his eyes, Shunzi's face was full of Qinghua: "Continue to investigate this matter, there will always be a day when the truth comes to light."

"Yes!"

Wuming took the order immediately, and seeing Murong Yu closed his eyes, he left the study quietly just now.

"Open your eyes when you wake up!" After Wuming left, Murong Yu looked at the woman in his arms a little funny, stretched out his hand and couldn't help stroking her soft black hair, and his slender jade hands habitually aroused. She played with a strand of hair.

With a mischievous smile on the corner of Xia Qingge's mouth, he opened his eyes to meet a pair of gentle eyes, and sighed: "Nothing can escape your eyes!"

"When did you wake up? I really don't know!"

"Later than you woke up." Xia Qingge glanced towards the door before turning his eyes back: "The man in gray just now is also your subordinate? I always feel as if I have seen him somewhere."

Murong Yu chuckled lightly: "That day you provoked Liang Kai, the elder son of the Jingtian Hou Mansion, in public, and it was this person who brought Liang Kai back to the Jingtian Hou Mansion, and at the same time broke his arms and legs. Great punishment."

Xia Qingge suddenly realized: "So it's that mysterious man with superb skills? He turned out to be your subordinate? Then——."

Xia Qingge concatenated the scenes of that day. When Liang Kai insulted her with words, the man in gray appeared in time to punish Liang Kai, that playboy. At that time, she still respected this mysterious man, so she never imagined that she would really fight for her that day. The man turned out to be the man she still complained in her heart that he didn't have any gentlemanly demeanor.
