Yue Luoxue was startled, as she did not know what he was referring to. "What do you mean by 'what do you mean?'"
Dongfang Chen's peach blossom eyes carried a complex look as he looked deeply at Yue Luoxue: "It's nothing, Rongxuan trusts you, don't disappoint him."
"Nutjob." Looking at Dongfang Chen's back figure, Yue Luoxue couldn't help but mutter to herself. This fellow should have specifically waited for her just now, just to ask such a senseless question?
"Xiao Xuexue, I'm rich!" Before she could take a few steps, she saw a ball of lightning rushing towards him. Tang Yuan did not know which grave she had come out from, but her body was covered with a layer of powder that shone brightly under the sunlight.
He had indeed just dug a tomb. It wasn't too big, but he had found a few good items and was feeling excited.
"Oh? Show me. " Yue Luoxue was a little curious.
Tang Yuan was so scared that he quickly hugged his storage bag tightly, "Xiao Xuexue, you can't fight with me for it, it's not easy for me to steal your grave either."
Yue Luoxue curled her lips, and her eyes suddenly turned. "I won't fight with you anymore, why would you want to go out with me?"
"Really? Xiao Xuexue, don't tell me you want to rob a grave together with me? My hands and feet are welcoming! " Tang Yuan's eyes lit up.
Yue Luoxue smiled meaningfully, "You'll know once you come."
Within the Heartrest Palace, it was currently in a complete mess …
Nalan Jie swept all the items on the table to the ground. His eyes burned with anger as he roared loudly: "Who exactly did this?"
That was the palace entrance, the first barrier of the royal family. Someone had actually ignored all the guards and openly murdered the imperial court officials. How could he be at ease?
Yin Lian stood lovably to the side like a frightened rabbit. She looked pitifully at Nalan Jie, as if she wanted to step forward and comfort him. Just as she took a step forward, her legs softened and she fell into his arms. "Your Majesty …"
There were a few traces of fear in that coquettish voice. With the gentle fragrance and the soft jade in his embrace, Nalan Jie felt his heart tremble, but his anger did not dissipate.
"Your majesty, please don't be angry. Lord Geng is loyal to the emperor. Did he find out something and offended someone to silence him?" Yin Lian raised her head, her eyes filled with love as she looked at Nalan Jie. She extended her small hand and touched the center of his eyebrows.
Nalan Jie's eyes suddenly narrowed. What Geng Qing was recently investigating was the matter regarding Senior Concubine Wan! Could it be?
Although he did not personally see Geng Qing's appearance, but according to the Ministry of Justice's report, Geng Qing's back was pierced through by an arrow, and after that person committed murder, he even took something from Geng Qing's body.
"Your majesty, please be at ease first. The truth will definitely be revealed." Yin Lian consoled him softly, murmuring to herself, "What did Lord Geng find out? I have to kill him …"
Nalan Jie's heart was moved once again. Geng Qing was a straightforward person who did not know how to change the situation, he had offended many people in the imperial court, but even though he had investigated the fraud case thoroughly many years ago and found many powerful people, they were all jointly written off.
Now that he had lost his life, it could be seen that he had found something extremely important. This matter was related to Imperial Concubine Wan and needed him to die, it seemed that Nalan Rongxuan's identity was the only thing left in the world!
Thinking about this, Nalan Jie's face turned even uglier.
"Your Majesty, prince Rui greets you." Eunuch Huang trembled as he walked in.
Nalan Ronglang was dressed in white, and he looked extremely haggard, unlike his usual handsome self. Nalan Jie frowned slightly: "Didn't you get permission to rest at home? Why are you here at the palace again? "
"When your son heard that Lord Geng was killed, I was worried that Imperial Father would comfort me. Your son has already lost Yao He, and it's even more impossible for Imperial Father to have any more mishaps!"
Nalan Jie saw that he was sensible and helped him up from the ground and couldn't help but to sigh. All these years, he had neglected this son of his.
The crown prince and sixth brother had already been exposed, not to mention the sickly King Xuan, even their bloodline was a problem, but now there was only King Rui, someone reliable. It was hard to not be moved by the fact that his beloved had just died and was still dressed in plain clothes, how could he not be moved …
The Nalan Jie turned around and slowly walked towards the Dragon Throne. Nalan Ronglang quickly gave Yin Lian a meaningful glance, causing his to nod his head lightly. He walked to the Nalan Jie's side and placed a delicate hand on his temple, gently massaging it.
"Imperial Father, this son has always admired Lord Geng for his ability. Now that Lord Geng has died tragically, this son is willing to investigate and find the real culprit so that Lord Geng can rest in peace. Please grant us your permission, royal father! " Nalan Ronglang straightened his clothes and took the initiative to request orders.
Nalan Jie's eyes moved as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this suggestion.
"Your majesty, Prince Rui has done a very good job with the disaster relief operation. Perhaps he can do it well as well." She moved gently and spoke softly, but it did not seem like she was interfering with the government.
Nalan Jie nodded and finally made his decision, "Alright, we will order the Ministry of Justice to assist you. We must find the real culprit!"
"Father, this son has another question. Father, may I ask if you have a secret mission for Lord Geng?" Nalan Ronglang calmly said, but his thoughts were very clear.
Nalan Jie was stunned for a moment. It seemed like he was in a difficult position, but after looking at the Prince Rui's filial look, he hesitated for a while, but still nodded his head.
"Can royal father tell me what is the matter? I think it's important to find out. " Nalan Ronglang seemed to have noticed Nalan Jie's dilemma and asked carefully.
The Nalan Jie sighed and told him the lighter mission. Nalan Ronglang tactfully stopped pursuing the matter and left in a hurry to find clues.
Nalan Jie sat on the Dragon Throne and suddenly felt exhausted. When Doctor Luo first treated him, he was full of energy and thought that he was no different from a strong young man in his twenties.
Glancing at the flirtatious Yin Lian beside him, Nalan Jie suddenly had a doubt in his heart. Could it be that it was really as Godly Doctor and the others said, that he could not do anything between man and woman?
When he thought about Yin Lian's beautiful and charming appearance, a nameless flame of desire rose up in his heart. Thinking about that, when he felt Yin Lian's soft and soft, boneless hands, the originally exhausted Nalan Jie immediately felt a fire burning in his lower abdomen.
With a turn of his body, he pulled Yin Lian into his embrace, and she obediently hugged Nalan Jie. The two of them rolled onto the soft couch …
After the rain, Nalan Jie fell into a deep slumber due to exhaustion. Yin Lian looked at his aged face and sneered.
