Queen Flower

When Xia Hen left the cell in autumn, he sent Dali Temple officers and soldiers, and the yamen of Shangjing Yamen went out of the city to look for suspicious villas and courtyards. If you want to come to the edge of the imperial city, it is impossible to set up a stronghold in the deep mountains and old forests, otherwise why choose the capital city, go to the university Jincheng is better. The deeper the mountains and the forests, the easier it is to be discovered. On the contrary, the ordinary villas are less conspicuous, so the goal this time is this kind of place.

At the same time, Prince Ning's mansion was also closely monitored, and if there was any trouble, he would immediately report it to Sima Jin. Sima Lian went to see the Empress Dowager that day, but he stayed behind closed doors for the rest of the time, and there was no movement at all, as if he really had nothing to do with him.

Although Xia Henqiu was concerned about Jiang Lan, she was kept in the harem by the emperor. Even if he was anxious, he had no choice but to wait for the news of the officers and soldiers leaving the city while waiting for the emperor's summons. When I was free, I also heard a rumor that Yan Zhan, the general of Zhennan, had a good relationship with Longyang, and had an ambiguous relationship with Hanlin editors. even. And the inner court sergeant in the palace also revealed to him a more secret and bizarre rumor. The emperor wanted to give them marriages separately, but for some reason they angered the emperor. The emperor gave them marriages on the spot and asked them to marry them. , Although it was said that the marriage contract was finally annulled, and the emperor ordered it to be sealed, but it is unknown whether there is a bridal chamber or not.

Xia Henqiu was so entangled in his heart that he wished he would break into the Dali Temple and take Yan Zhan out for questioning. For a while, he really wished that he was beheaded by the emperor. It's just that he didn't want to believe it, because Jiang Lan was still imprisoned in the palace. Compared with Yan Zhan in the prison, it seemed that the emperor's mind was even more elusive.

Jiang Lan sat on the couch to heal herself, but with Xia Henqiu's help, she recovered a lot. Ganqing is a person who specially treats her injuries. As long as she is injured, she will meet him. I don't know if she is too lucky or if he is too unlucky. Except when he first met her, he pointed her to a dead end, and since then she has been indebted to him. Then again, without Xia Henqiu's intentional blind guidance, she couldn't find the antidote, and maybe she was still tossing around in the first mission.

However, in every mission there will be a masked man in black. In the first mission, they followed Shangguan Hong to grab the Queen Hua Yupei who opened the Tianmen. It seems that they are always paying attention to the affairs of Zunguo and Tianmen, so this person behind the scenes must be from Zunguo. The royal family of the country, and men and women do not know, if it is calculated according to age, now it should be in the thirties and upwards, it is the time to be powerful. This man is hiding in a corner of the Celestial Dynasty watching the development of the situation.

The man in black on the second mission was Yan Fu. Two years ago, he went to Nanjiang and Sima Lian to plot a treasure hunt. Based on her eavesdropping and personal experience, based on what Xiao Yan saw, the man in black was a planned man. organized and trained a group of dead men. Doing some unknown deeds, the source of these dead men is the disappearing children. Yan Fu served Sima Lian, or colluded with each other. Conspiracy to rebel.

The third mission just proved this. The tentacles of the men in black reached the mansion of the grass-roots officials, both for surveillance and protection. By the way, they would take action when they should, and hide in the dark to obtain the best interests.

Therefore, Sima Lian and the Men in Black organization colluded with each other and were independent of each other. Sima Lian's purpose is the throne, and the man in black is obviously not pure. It is also related to the missing Zunguo and the missing Tianmen.

Now Yan Fu is exposed, but the hidden leader has no clues at all, and it is difficult to find out. It is Yan Fu's behavior that will greatly affect the entire Yan Fu. Once he is dead, he will harm others.

Jiang Lan felt that her head was big, and she had to quickly recover from the injury. There were so many things, how could she be allowed to lie on the bed?

At this time, the palace maid brought the soup medicine, which interrupted Jiang Lan's thinking. Jiang Lan was drinking the soup medicine and looked around. Among the auspicious clouds, there are also giant dragons showing their claws and claws, which complement each other with the golden dragons with claws and claws coiled on the wooden beams with red background. On the sandalwood stand against the wall, there are a large number of Ruyi of different sizes and textures, obviously for the emperor to play with. It is said that this is the side hall of Sima Jin's bedroom, that is to say, it is in the harem.

She is a Hanlin editor, a foreign minister, and a young "man", how could she stay in this place to heal her wounds? Even if the injury crisis was in a hurry at the time and urgently needed the treatment of the imperial doctor, now her breath has eased. Dui eunuchs and maids stood in front of her and waited on them. When they asked them something, they asked three questions, and they didn't know whether it was true or false.

Could it be that Sima Jin was worried that she would use the power of **** to coerce and intercede for Yan Zhan? If you think about it this way, it makes sense. Then Yan Zhan is indeed in danger. This faint-hearted gentleman really doesn't want to take the opportunity to eliminate Yan Zhan at this time. Although he has made outstanding contributions, he can't resist such a big crime as treason.

Jiang Lan was in a hurry. She didn't want to see a generation of loyal and well-known generals with her own eyes and be implicated to death in such a wronged way. This is really unfair. At this time, the eunuchs outside were shouting "the emperor is here" again.

Jiang Lan was able to move freely, so he knelt on the ground with the palace people to greet the emperor.

Sima Jin walked in, saw Jiang Lan who was kneeling to greet her, and immediately reached out to help her up, not vainly, but actually grabbed her arm and pulled her up. "Aiqing is seriously injured, how can you get off the ground at will, go to the couch and lie down." He stared at her face, looked at her face carefully, found that it was indeed better, and couldn't help smiling.

Sima Jin took her by the hand and walked to the couch. Seeing this, all the palace people hurriedly lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at it.

Jiang Lan felt horrified, things were moving in an unpredictable and strange direction, and she had no way to stop it. She wanted to let go of his hand, but he held it even tighter.

Sima Jin glanced at the palace servants, "Let's all go out." The palace people filed out, leaving the two of them behind.

Jiang Lan was a little nervous, and said bravely, "Your Majesty, the minister is already well, can you allow the minister to go home?"

Sima Jin let go of her hand, stood up and walked around, "Isn't it bad here? The people are slowing down?"

Jiang Lan lowered his head and said with difficulty, "It's fine here, but this is the emperor's bedroom, so it's against the rules."

Sima Jin walked up to her and suddenly raised her jaw with his fingers, "Can't you?" He stared at her face, a cold light flashed in his eyes, cold and dangerous, "Yan Zhan has where is it?"

Jiang Lan was shocked on the spot and couldn't say a word. Although she vaguely felt the same way, she didn't expect Sima Jin to say it like this, as if she had made a decision. Incredible, Sima Jin didn't break her sleeves, she really did something wrong this time, and broke a good emperor.

Jiang Lan turned his head and reluctantly replied, "This minister is a man."

Sima Jin was slightly displeased, "So what? I know that Aiqing likes men, isn't I a man?"

Jiang Lan wanted to kneel down and cry, what is this? It's not all forced by him, if he didn't want to give marriage, how could she say such a thing. Well now, this bitter fruit that has been going around is about to be spit out and swallowed again. It really doesn't make people live. Now facing the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, what solution will she use to solve it?

Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to ask about the situation, and intercede for Yan Zhan by the way, but now I don't dare to say a word. If she said it now, it would add fuel to the fire and accelerate Yan Zhan's destruction. The emperor must be angry with Yan Zhan. Killing the heart, whether to consolidate the regime or for her.

Jiang Lan was very anxious in her heart, but she didn't dare to show half of it on her face. Who let those words be said by herself? Isn't denial now to admit that she was deceiving you at that time? She is really like a tiger with a king. Can she say that His Majesty is not a man? She can't say that she only likes Yan Zhan, this is pushing Yan Zhan to death.

Jiang Lan is always good at sophistry, but now that she's languid, she really can't think of anything to say.

Sima Jin saw that her expression was stiff, and he didn't embarrass her anymore. He lifted up his robe and sat on the couch, "I thought Aiqing didn't want to be a princess for the sake of her career. Could it be that she really fell in love with Yan Zhan?" He said casually. , the words are very heart-wrenching.

Jiang Lan hurriedly got off the donkey along the slope, "What the emperor said is very true, the minister really did not like General Yan, it was a last resort."

Sima Jin nodded, his face softened, "Yan Zhan is a martial artist, arrogant and rude, and he is not the same as Aiqing."

Jiang Lan could only nod in agreement, alas, what he said was what he said, if he dared to refute now, the result would be even worse.

Sima Jin suddenly changed the conversation, "It's a pity that Yan Chun's wife and daughter died in the study. It's really a lifelong loyalty and he deserves to be an old general, but it also fulfills his reputation."

Jiang Lan's complexion changed drastically. That old general Yan, who had a good face and elegant demeanor, committed suicide, including his wife and concubines and Yan Lin, that cute and outspoken little girl? She stayed there and couldn't say anything. She hated feudal affiliates the most. If one person did bad things, he would harm the whole family, even the nine clans. In this way, it is estimated that the nine clans will be implicated. Others in the Yan family are also killed and sold, but Yan Zhan?

Jiang Lan looked at Sima Jin, and saw that he was looking at her for a split second. There was a sharp light in his narrow eyes, and the royal majesty was revealed. This is someone who has the power to control the life and death of others.

Jiang Lan's mind turned sharply, and suddenly knelt down, "Whether Yan Zhan was involved in this matter is not easy to judge now, and a thorough investigation is needed. Wei Chen implores the emperor to let Wei Chen participate in this matter. To avenge myself."

In any case, Yan Zhan must be locked up now, and it is useless to plead for mercy. Only when he leaves the palace can he find another way.
