The pet career of Shaoqing of Dali Temple

Chapter 430 Secretly recalled to the palace, the strange case of the Prince's Mansion
Qing Moyan and Ru Xiaonan lived in Shifang Town for another half a month, until the end of the new year was approaching, news came from the capital that the queen had passed away.

Ru Xiaonan was at a loss.

"Is the empress in poor health?"

"Who knows." Qing Moyan reacted flatly when she heard the news.

Ru Xiaonan always felt that he knew the inside story, but Qing Moyan was very tight-lipped, and no one could make him talk about anything he didn't want to say, so she could only pretend that she didn't care.

After the New Year's Eve, Qing Moyan received a letter from Fei Ge from the capital, His Highness the Eighth Prince left the palace and went to Beifan.

Ru Xiaonan felt sad for a long time because of this.

Fortunately, Qing Moyan told her that His Highness the Eighth Prince pretended to hurt his face before leaving the palace, and now he has a human skin mask on his face, covering up his original charming appearance.

After hearing this, Ru Xiaonan was a little relieved.

Here in Shifang Town, old man Ru Yuan and Chang Heen had a lively and lively New Year, before the flavor of the New Year dissipated, Qing Moyan suddenly received a secret order.

The emperor secretly summoned him back to the palace.

Ru Xiaonan said anxiously, "Are you really going back?"

After reading the secret letter, Qing Moyan lit the letter on the candlestick and watched it turn into ashes little by little.

"Of course I have to go back."

Ru Xiaonan pursed her mouth and sat on the side frowning.

Qing Moyan caught a glimpse of her eyebrows all over her face and couldn't help laughing.

"Do you want to accompany me back?"

"Yes!" She replied without thinking.

"If there is danger, are you willing to accompany me back?"

"Of course." Ru Xiaonan stuck to his body stickyly, "Anyway, no matter where you go, I will follow you."

Qing Moyan smiled even more.

"Okay, then you accompany me back."

Two days later, Qing Moyan resettled Shifang Town, and secretly returned to the capital with Ru Xiaonan.

This time they were summoned back secretly, so Qing Moyan didn't use the carriage, Ru Xiaonan turned into a sweet fox and curled up in his arms, Xuanyu only brought ten dead men by his side, and the group quietly rushed back to the capital .

Qing Moyan first placed Ru Xiaonan in a village outside the city, and then went directly to the palace.

The emperor summoned him in the secret room.

When Qing Moyan saw the emperor's appearance, she couldn't help being stunned.

It has only been a few months since he left the capital, and the emperor has become so thin.

"Your majesty...you are..."

The emperor waved his hand and sat down on the chair with difficulty, "I'm fine."

But this way, it doesn't look like nothing happened.

"Has the emperor asked the imperial physician to see it?"

The emperor nodded, "It's just an occasional cold, it's not a problem."

"I don't know why the emperor summoned his ministers back?"

The emperor twitched his lips, "If I don't call you back, don't you just want to hide and refuse to see me?"

"The minister said before that as long as the emperor summons the minister, the minister will definitely return."

"So this time... I have a problem, so I can only call you back." The emperor said quietly.

"Your Majesty, just give orders." Qing Moyan said respectfully, "I will never refuse to die."

"I don't want you to die forever..." The emperor smiled wryly, "I don't even have anyone suitable for me now, they all have their eyes on my position, and there is not even anyone who is willing to do business for me sincerely."

Qing Moyan lowered her head and listened quietly.

The fact that the emperor complained in front of him did not mean that he wanted to listen to other people's opinions, it was just his casual talk.

Qing Moyan knows very well that the emperor is the king and he is the minister, all he can do is keep his mouth shut and do his job well.

The emperor talked for a long time, although Qing Moyan didn't answer, but it made him feel much relieved.

"Some strange things have happened in the Prince's Mansion recently, which alarmed Shuntian Mansion, but the people sent there didn't find anything, and even lost some manpower."

Qing Moyan raised her head in surprise, "The prince's residence? Isn't the prince in the residence?"

If the prince was in the capital, how could he let the people from Shuntian Prefecture intervene.

The emperor smiled sinisterly, "The prince was sent by me to send the Eighth Highness to Beifan, and went to meet the Beifan envoy by the way."

Qing Moyan was very surprised to hear that the crown prince accepted this job.

You have to know how many years the crown prince has been in the capital, although he occasionally has contact with government affairs, he has never been sent out.

The emperor actually sent the prince out this time, which shows that the emperor has already tried to test the prince.

The prince's position may be loosened.

"The prince's mansion has repeatedly killed servants. In just half a month, dozens of people died, and the death was strange. Even I have never seen it before. Now I assign you to assist the Shuntian mansion in investigating this case. The prince is not here now. In the mansion, you must protect the Crown Princess."

"I obey the order." Qing Moyan bowed his hands and accepted the order.

Qing Moyan went to Shuntian Mansion that night.

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture was very surprised to see Qing Moyan visiting late at night.

Qing Moyan took out the emperor's secret decree, and only then did Yin Shuntian know that the other party was sent by the emperor to assist him in investigating the case.

Although it is for assistance, his official position is one rank higher than Shaoqing's, but the other party is the emperor's favorite minister, Shuntian Fu Yin is extra cautious.

Qing Moyan sat on a chair and listened to Shuntian Fuyin's story about the bizarre case in the Prince's Mansion. On his lap lay a black beaver with shiny fur.

From time to time he stroked Shannon's head with his hand.

"Master Fu Yin, has he personally visited the deceased?" Qing Moyan asked.

Shuntian Mansion Yin repeatedly nodded, "The deceased were both male and female. After death, their bodies looked haggard and their eyes were wide open... I ordered Wu Zuo to check and found that there was only one wound on his body, both at the heart."

Qing Moyan frowned, "Have you ever met the Crown Princess?"

Shuntian Fu Yin shook his head, "Since the prince got married, the princess has followed his temperament and rarely showed up, only occasionally entering the palace with the prince."

"Why did you enter the palace?" Qing Moyan asked.

"The prince is filial, and every time he brings the princess into the palace to visit the empress, until the empress's funeral, rain or shine."

Qing Moyan was silent for a moment.

"Have they ever met the emperor?"

"Naturally."

Qing Moyan's face became even uglier.

"Have you heard that the emperor has been in poor health recently?"

Shuntian Fu Yin stared at him with horror on his face, "Your Majesty... is not in good health? I really don't know."

Qing Moyan closed her eyes, got up and said: "Tomorrow, I will go to the Prince's Mansion with you."

Shuntian Fuyin handed him off.

Qing Moyan left Shuntian Mansion with the fragrant fox in her arms.

"Hawk?" Seeing his gloomy expression, Ru Xiaonan raised her head and licked his face.

"I always feel that the emperor seems to know something." Qing Moyan said quietly.

"Chirp." Sure enough, those who can become emperor are not some fuel-efficient lamps.

Ru Xiaonan absolutely believed that the emperor had noticed something, and she said that if the father knew her father, she could guess what Qing Moyan was thinking in the emperor's heart.

"Little girl."

"Haw?"

"Tomorrow, you will come with me to the Prince's Mansion." Not in a questioning tone, Ru Xiaonan noticed that Qing Moyan's tone was unusually serious this time.

His yin and yang eyes are not as effective as hers, and she needs to take a look at some things to believe in them.

"Chirp!" Raising her little paw, Ru Xiaonan returned him with a serious expression.

Meow will protect you, don't worry, Master Silver!

Seeing her little paw patting her shoulder, Qing Moyan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
