Chapter 231

Yun Xiao closed his eyes slightly, his long eyelashes covered his bright pupils, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips.

While looking at her face, Murong Chong stretched out his fingers to caress her face, and then a magnetic voice sounded.

"Smile, don't get too close to those men in the future."

There was a slight sour taste in the words, Yun Xiao suddenly opened his eyes wide, blinked, and said word by word: "Murong, are you jealous?"

Under the moonlight, those pitch-black eyes and pupils were dull, a little unnatural, and then Yun Xiao's reaction was the same as last time, and he smiled softly: "How could it be? I'm just afraid that you will suffer."

Yun Xiao closed her eyes, she understood in her heart, just keep your mouth shut and sleep in a comfortable position, but unfortunately the person above her head has not waited for her words, she is a little depressed, she pursed the corners of her lips tightly, seeing that she really fell asleep, she couldn't bear to sleep. He couldn't help shaking the person in his arms.

"Smile, you don't think you should say something."

Yun Xiao tried her best to hold back her laughter, eyes still closed, and said softly, "Well, I want to say something, Murong, good night, I'm going to sleep."

Ignore him after finishing talking, and really fell asleep. Murong Chong's eyes were as black as splashed ink, with an unfathomable light, but he couldn't do anything with the girl in his arms. He sighed and looked at the bright moonlight outside the window, suddenly remembering the past What Yun Xiao said, tonight, Shangguan Lin was so preoccupied that he got himself drunk. Why did he get drunk? Could it be that he discovered something? If Lin Ruo thinks that he is dead, he will definitely feel heartache. If these fall into the eyes of that narrow-minded person, he is afraid that he will cause trouble for himself, and he will definitely try his best to find out.

Murong Chong didn't dare to think about it, it seemed that he wanted to speed up, and sent someone to secretly watch all of Lin's actions, so he must be protected, he was the only relative he cared about in this world.

The night is still boundless, how can we know the misery and confusion in the world.

Murong waited for Xiao'er to fall asleep, then put her down lightly, left the small building in a flash, and went to re-arrange the action, because she didn't expect that Lin would find something different.

In the upper study of the palace.

Shangguan Yao summoned Lan Qinglun, the servant of the Ministry of War.

As soon as he saw Lan Qinglun, approval flashed in his pupils. This Lan Qinglun was elegant and handsome. Although he was the servant of the Ministry of War, he was quite literati. He wore a green gown, slender like green bamboo, with jade Standing tall, standing in the upper study room, neither arrogant nor anxious, neither humble nor overbearing, neither fearful of the emperor nor arrogance of taking credit for himself.

"Chen Lan Qinglun has seen the emperor."

"Lan Aiqing, get up."

Shangguan Yao waved his hand and signaled Lan Qinglun to get up: "Give me a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Lan Qinglun clasped his fists and sat down on a chair beside him, and said respectfully, "I don't know why the Emperor summoned my ministers."

When he was about to leave the court today, the eunuch Xiaotingzi next to the emperor stopped him, saying that the emperor ordered him to enter the upper study.

At this time, the emperor wants to see him and doesn't know why.

"I want to ask about the assassin? How is the investigation going?"

As soon as Lan Qinglun heard the emperor's words, he quickly stood up and bent down to reply: "The emperor, the minister, the Shangguan prince, and the people from the Ministry of punishment searched the capital after the decision, but there was no trace of them. I dared to guess that these It is very likely that the person left the city after committing the crime, so the scope of the search should be expanded, and the temples and villages outside the city must be searched, so that the assassin cannot escape."

When Shangguan Yao saw that Lan Qinglun was well arranged and thoughtful in doing things, his eyes were even more appreciative.

He has been looking for someone who can replace Ye Siyuan and take over the position of Minister of the Ministry of War. This Lan Qinglun not only saved himself, but is also very young, so he can completely train him to be his own person, but he needs to observe a little , and how to get back the rights of the Ye family is also a headache, and there is a queen mother behind?

"Okay, it's up to you to do it."

"Yes, I retire."

Lan Qinglun backed out respectfully. Outside the door, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice was waiting anxiously, rubbing his hands from time to time, and walking back and forth anxiously. When he looked up, he saw Master Lan coming out of it, and laughed. He said hello, Lord Lan is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, they have to rely on him.

"Master Lan is here too."

Lan Qinglun nodded, and greeted politely: "My lord is here too, the emperor is inside."

The two of them were talking, and Xiaotingzi came out: "The emperor has a decree, the Secretary of the Ministry of Proclamation and Punishment."

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice and Lan Qinglun parted ways, one left and the other entered the upper study.

In the study room, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment quickly knelt down: "Report to the emperor, did you get a secret report?"

"Say?" The pupils of the person above were dark, his handsome features flashed fiercely, the corners of his lips were bloodthirsty, and the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, who was kneeling down, trembled a little, and hurriedly knelt down to report.

"The minister searched for a suspicious person. Under the severe punishment, the person confessed that he was still one of the assassins who assassinated the emperor that day, and the person revealed that the real mastermind behind the scenes was still Prime Minister Sima."

The Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment did not move at all, the study room was filled with cold, the sound of the collision of blades seemed to be heard in the silence, and the howling of ghosts and wolves on the guillotine, I am afraid that this is the residence of Prime Minister Sima?
Shangguan Yaodou went over the case of beating the dragon, and stood up angrily: "Well, you Sima Qingyun, you dare to do such a treasonous thing, you are really daring, I will never let you go."

Feeling the fury of the thunder, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, who was kneeling down, was really terrified, and only dared to open his mouth cautiously after the emperor's anger was over.

"Your majesty, I dare you, why does Sima Qingyun want to kill the emperor, isn't it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he stopped talking, but Shangguan Yao already understood what he meant. Why did Sima Qingyun do this? I'm afraid there is another person behind him, and this person must be King Lin.

There was no movement in the study room for a while, and it took a long time to hear the emperor's slightly tired voice.

"Okay, let's investigate Sima Qingyun. This bit of witness evidence is not enough to convict him. Search for more beneficial ones. Besides, Lord Lin, don't startle the snake for the time being."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The minister of the Ministry of punishment withdrew, and he was in the study.

Shangguan Yao's face was full of ambition, and his eyes were full of iron and blood...

In the afternoon, in the quiet space, the sun shines through the branches, and the thin and long light shines into the store. A person is sleeping peacefully on a recliner, with a relaxed face. There are no customers in the store at this time, and it is extremely quiet. Who dares to provoke his own son, Mr. Leng Yue's temper is not very good, and he has no good fruit to eat, so everyone consciously does what they are doing, and never makes a sound.
