Chapter 536

"Your Majesty..."

The internal supervisor came forward to salute and said, "just now minister Ji sent a message saying that there is progress in the matter of assassins."

Emperor Qingming's eyes moved.

The Queen's finger holding the tea cup was slightly tight, but there was no difference on her face: "since there is progress, your majesty, let's get busy with business. My concubine will take care of herself and not distract your majesty."

Emperor Qingming nodded his head and said to her, "empress, have a rest. I'll go back and have a look first."

"Yes." the queen then got up: "my concubine sent it to your majesty."

She sent emperor Qingming out of Yukun palace and watched the Dragon chariot go away with enough dedication.

"Madam, let's go back," mother Jiang whispered on one side.

The queen nodded and felt a little uneasy.

She knows what kind of person Li Ji is. If he says there is progress, there must be real progress worth mentioning

Is there something that hasn't been cleaned?

And now she hasn't got a reply. Is there something wrong in the middle?

However, no matter what kind of possibility or change, she can only wait and see the change first, and can't act blindly and impulsively. The dog emperor has always been treacherous. Maybe the little eunuch's words just now are just playing a trick and deliberately tricking her to test whether she will do anything under her guilty heart.

At this time, Yu Linwei was in her palace

What should be done boldly has been done. The more this time, the more calm it is

The queen covered her eyes and took mother Jiang back to the bedroom.

……

Half an hour ago——

Shortly after the eunuchs who came to the dark court to deliver food left, xiaojiezi was squatting in front of the house, drinking cold water with a broken bowl. It was salty porridge in the evening, and there was a faint smell of rancidity. In order not to let others see the difference, he forced himself to drink a bowl. Now he just felt that the rancidity was wrapped in his throat and made people sick, so he had to press it down with cold water.

Just after pouring a bowl of cold water down his stomach, Xiao Jiezi rubbed his chin with his sleeve, but suddenly heard a burst of rapid footsteps.

"That's him! I saw him sneaking away from sleep and climbing the wall last night!" said a thin eunuch with hair and beard covering his face, pointing to xiaojiezi.

The two next to him were dressed up as Yu Linjun.

Xiaojiezi was surprised, dropped the broken bowl and suddenly stood up: "Liu saner, what are you crazy again!"

"I just saw it! I saw it with my own eyes!" the eunuch named Liu saner pointed two fingers to his eyes. There was an abnormal light in his eyes: "I told the truth, I can take three steamed buns!"

"Did you go out last night?" one of the Yu Linjun looked at Xiao Jiezi.

"The villain didn't leave the house at all last night!" xiaojiezi hurriedly said: "brother bodyguard, I'm afraid you don't know. This Liu saner has been crazy for a long time. He's talking nonsense and trying to cheat the reward! You can't believe him!"

The two Yulin guards exchanged eyes and immediately said, "search again!"

Ji Gong keeps putting pressure on them. Now we can't let go of anything suspicious.

Last night, we searched the inside and outside of the dark court, but because we found that the "Assassin" had left the dark court, we urgently needed to expand the scope and block the way out everywhere. Therefore, we only searched and questioned here. If we say how fine it is, there is no way.

"Brother bodyguard, the villain is really wronged!"

Xiaojiezi panicked and shouted injustice next to him.

The two Yu Lin Wei didn't care so much about him, so they almost turned the house upside down.

Although the house was occupied, it had not been cleaned for a long time. There was a thick layer of dust in every corner. Under such searching, the dust danced in the sunshine from the shabby window, which made two Yulin guards frown and cough.

At this time, a jar placed in the corner of the wall suddenly made two rustling sounds.

"What's hidden in the jar?" a Yulin guard heard the noise, stared at the jar, and asked in a cold voice.

The jar was half a man high and covered with a broken and moldy bamboo cover.

Another Yulin guard has stepped forward quickly, pulled out the long knife in his hand and picked down the bamboo cover.

"Jiji..."

Suddenly a light appeared, and the things in the jar cried in surprise.

The Yulin guard looked intently and saw that there were four or five little mice.

"This is raised by villains!" xiaojiezi came over and explained: "last time I touched a mouse nest. Seeing that the nest of mice was still small, I kept it in the tank. In summer, insects were easy to catch, so I caught some crickets and grasshoppers in the grass nest and fed them. I thought it would be good to eat meat when I grew up... I can eat it at ease when I grew up myself, can't I?"

Yu Linwei frowned and his stomach surged.

"The two eldest brothers also saw it. I really don't have any assassins here. I can't even get enough food. Where's the dog courage to do this!"

The eunuch ran in again, stared at him and said fiercely, "I just saw him. He sneaked out! He's with the assassins!"

Looks like a madman.

When the two Yulin guards were about to leave, they saw an internal supervisor coming over and glancing at the situation in the house. His voice was soft and arrogant: "Ji Gong said that anyone who is slightly suspicious should be brought to his old man for careful examination. There must be no fish missing the net."

[receive red envelope] the cash or counting red envelope has been distributed to your account! WeChat pays attention to the public.

Li Ji is the person who is directly responsible for this matter. Yulin Wei didn't dare to say anything, so he took xiaojiezi away from the dark court.

When he saw Li Ji, Xiao Jiezi was already sweating, and the panic in his eyes had nowhere to hide.

Before he was sent to the dark court, he was just a humble little eunuch. Although he had never seen the big eunuch with the palm of the imperial front, he also had a natural fear.

Here is a dark room. Only a small hole in the back wall is opened. A ray of light penetrates through the small hole, but the indoor vision is still dim.

The eunuch was sitting in an armchair and his expression was invisible.

Xiaojiezi was escorted to kneel on the ground. He saw a Yu Linwei whispering something in Li Ji's ear. Then Li Ji looked up at him.

"Ji Gong, the villain is really wronged. The villain didn't do anything..."

"Really?" Li Ji gave a light "hiss" and said, "but why did I smell a smell of medicine as soon as you came in and the two doors were closed? It's quite like smelling in the dark room last night..."

Xiaojiezi's face turned white in an instant.

Last night he went into the dark room and recited the man named Joe. Was it the smell he got at that time?!

"Villain... Villain really doesn't know anything!" he knocked his head on the ground and explained in a trembling voice, but he didn't know what to say. The more he said at this time, the easier it would be to reveal the truth!

However, his reaction was undoubtedly different in Li Ji's eyes.

Those who can climb to the position of handprint eunuch have a pair of unique and poisonous eyes that have been trained for a long time——
