It was a windy night, and the moon hung in the sky like a dim disk. In the small forest outside the Residence of Regent, a gust of autumn wind blew. Four black figures flashed as they all knelt behind the middle-aged man with his hands behind his back. "Disciples greet Master!"
"Get up!" A familiar yet good-natured face was reflected in his eyes. This person was the master of the Regent, King Yu Ling Jing and steward of his household, Nangong Yu. "Wind and lightning, how is the investigation I had you all investigate?"
"Reporting to Master! "I've found out that the person who assassinated the princess a few days ago had something to do with the crown prince?" The one who spoke was the head of the four guards, the Wind Guard.
"Imperial Cold Wind? It really has something to do with him! " Twenty years ago, his Nangong family was destroyed by Yu Hanfeng's grandfather, the Shangguan family. A few months ago, the Qi family was massacred by the crown prince, and a few days ago, the crown prince sent someone to assassinate Royal Concubine Qi County. This series of blood cases had all been linked together because of the Imperial Palace's battle. Then why did the Crown Prince want to assassinate her? "
"This?" Disciples have not been investigated! " This time, the one who spoke was Lei Bao.
"It must be related to the Qi family, right?" The Wind Guard cupped his fists and said indifferently.
"Qi family?" Butler replied. Speaking of the Qi Family, butler Nangong Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of sympathy. The Qi family and his Nangong family had a similar experience. Since they were aristocratic families of Jianghu, they had accidentally caused their families to be exterminated because they had been involved in the battle for the palace. The wangfei's surname was Qi, then what kind of relationship did she have with the Qi family? Thinking of this, the butler quickly turned to the four men in black and viciously said, "Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning!"
"Disciple is here!"
"Investigate the relationship between the wangfei and the Qi family immediately!"
"Yes sir!" Before the four of them finished speaking, they had already disappeared into the boundless darkness with a glare of their feet. In the place where they had just stood, there were some leaves that had fallen from the autumn wind, as if they had never come here before.
Fallen leaves fell onto the steward's grey hair. The steward was still standing there like a soldier. Princess Hua-Yang had been assassinated for no reason. She had saved a woman her husband had kidnapped and sold off on the day she was assassinated, and she had even brought this woman back to the residence? Was this a coincidence? The butler looked into the distance with his pitch-black eyes and said slowly, "Next, the Royal Mansion will be bustling with noise and excitement!"
Early in the morning, everything was quiet. The first rays of dawn lit up the sky, and the darkness was about to fade. The dawn light slowly woke up the sleeping creatures.
Yu Ling Jing put on his court uniform, kissed the smiling Qi Wan County in his sleep, and walked out of the room. If the sky was peaceful and the land was calm, then Yours Truly would like to be an idle person to accompany his beloved to stroll by the lake and watch the rising sun. If the sun was setting, wouldn't it be great if we traveled together to the great rivers and mountains to taste the delicacies everywhere? When he thought of this, Yu Ling Jing's lips unconsciously curled up into a faint smile.
When Yu Lingjing reached the palace gates, she was stopped by a familiar and annoying voice, "Royal Uncle, please wait!" The one who spoke was the crown prince, Yu Ling Jing, who was wearing a yellow Six Dragons Silk Robe. Yu Ling Jing didn't pay him any attention as he continued walking. The corner of the crown prince's mouth tilted to one side as he quickly caught up to Yu Ling Jing, walking right next to him. He looked at Yu Ling Jing and sneered: "Royal uncle, are you looking good? I presume that Imperial Aunt is unharmed? "
"Is Imperial Aunt safe?" The other meaning of this sentence was that Qi'er County was unwell? Hearing the words about Qi Wan County, Yu Ling Jing immediately stopped, his cold eyes staring at Yu Feng. "What do you mean?" Yu Lingjing really didn't understand what Yu Lingfeng meant, was there something wrong with Qi Wan?
"Maybe! Your Imperial Uncle had to work hard for the country and might have neglected your Imperial Aunt, but you actually didn't even know that your Imperial Aunt was assassinated a few days ago? " Yu Hanfeng said with a mocking expression. From his eyes, it could be seen that he was very proud of himself. That's right, isn't your Regent, Yu Lingjing, also known as the War God? No matter how heroic and invincible you are on the battlefield, you can't even protect a woman at home? If word of this got out, wouldn't he be laughed to death?
Yu Ling Jing grabbed onto Yu Feng's collar, and with bloodthirsty eyes, he wished he could skin Yu Feng alive. "This King warns you!" If you have the ability, come at This King. Don't use women as weapons! "
"It seems royal uncle and his wife have a deep affection for each other?" I'm so jealous! " Yu Hanfeng pretended to be envious as he said, "Imperial Uncle was with Imperial Aunt every day, but didn't Imperial Aunt tell you? From the looks of it, Imperial Aunt also doesn't seem like a couple with deep feelings for each other? "
That's right, she didn't even tell me about the assassination attempt on my wife. Just what is my position in her heart? Yu Ling Jing suddenly felt a sense of loss, and slowly let go of Yu Feng. He stood there blankly, but Yu Ling Jing just laughed loudly and left.
At the same time, when Qi Wan had just gotten up and washed up, Liu Qi ran over with a happy face. "Senior Master!" A guest is coming! "
"Guest?" "Who is it?" Senior sister was not here, she did not have any other friends in the capital besides the official and Ruan Qingyan. However, there was no need to notify the officials every time he came. As for Qing Yan? Was it impossible for her to come to the Residence of Regent on her own accord? Who could it be?
"It's a handsome guy that's even more handsome than Prince!" Liu Qi's smiling face was quite suspicious.
A handsome guy that was even more handsome than Yu Lingjing? Who could be more handsome than Yu Lingjing? It wasn't that Qi Wan County was praising her man, but so far, she had never seen a man more handsome than Yu Ling Jing, so she had been wondering, who exactly was this person?
"Let's go, Uncle-Master!" "You'll know in a bit." As Liu Qi said this, she pulled Qi Lang toward the door.
Arriving at the main hall, he saw a skinny man with his hair tied in a bun. He wore a white robe and had his hands behind his back, looking very graceful from the view of his back. Qi Dian politely cupped his fist and asked with a smile, "May I ask who this brother is?"
The man turned around and smiled at Qi Wanxian.
Qing Yan? Why is it you? " Qi Dian looked at the man who had turned around in surprise. She was his good friend, the Medical Saint, Ruan Qingyan. Liu Qi was right, this Qing Yan was indeed more handsome than Yu Ling Jing.
"I came to see if you had recovered?" Ruan Qingyan lightly said, then she took Qi Lang's small hand and took her pulse.
Qi Dian County actually enjoyed the process of the Medical Saint taking over one's pulse. It had to be known that not everyone had the treatment of a Medical Saint. As Qi Dian County thought of this, its heart was filled with joy.
Ever since she cured the poison in the county, she had returned to the house they bought together to study poisons and had not come to visit the county. Today, her research was successful. Since she was free for the time being, she came to check on her good friend's recovery before coming out to relax. Ever since the county married into the manor, only Qing Mo Xue and her remained in the manor. Now that Qing Mo Xue was not around, she was bored. If she was the only one living in the city, she would have gotten used to it. However, after living with Mo Xue, she seemed to have gotten infected by them.
"Very good! "It seems like you've recovered!" Ruan Qingyan slowly said as she let go of Qi Shu County's arm.
"You damned girl, why didn't you say Qing Yan was here earlier?" Qi Wanli pointed at Liu Qi's small head and pretended to be angry as he spoke.
Liu Qi giggled, "Royal Consort! Didn't I want to give you a surprise? "
Qi Wan glanced at Liu Qi and said with a wry smile, "You're quite surprised?" As for joy, so was it. However, this little girl was intentionally toying with her, so she didn't say where her happiness lay.
"Liu Qi, go accompany Merlin, I still have something to say to Qing Yan." While saying that, Qi Wanjun pulled Ruan Qingyan and walked out.
In the imperial court, Yu Lingjing was like a different person. He was not in the mood to listen to the opinions and strategies of the ministers, nor was he in the mood to argue with the crown prince. Every time he was assassinated, his wife would stay by his side to protect him. But when his wife was assassinated, where was his husband? He had seen too many of those scene, and he had never been afraid? But whenever he thought of Qi and Hui County in such a situation, Yu Ling Jing became restless and absent-minded. Yu Lingjing knew he cared about his wife, but didn't know he had planted her in his bones.
Crown Prince Yu Hanfeng looked at his imperial uncle, whose heart was no longer in it, and felt as beautiful as if he had eaten honey. After battling with his Imperial Uncle for so many years, he had almost never obtained any advantages. Although this time was no exception, the assassination attempt had not been successful. But as long as he saw Yu Ling Jing in a trance, worried about his personal gains and losses, Yu Feng was happy, as if he had won a war. It seems that Imperial Uncle still cared a lot about that woman. As long as he cared about her, it was fine, but he was afraid that he wouldn't care. As long as he cared, this crown prince would have a handle on Yu Lingjing!
Next to the court, Yu Ling Jing walked out of the door of the court like a zombie. He looked at the frightened white pigeons flying past him, and he seemed to see Qi Lun County struggling.
At this time, the Crown Prince, Yu Hanfeng, passed by him. He glanced at him and fiercely said, "Uncle Huang's good methods are truly worthy of my admiration!"
Yu Lingjing's cold eyes stared at Yu Hanfeng, and he said indifferently, "I wonder what the Crown Prince's intentions are?"
Yu Hanfeng sneered and looked straight at Yu Lingjing, "Do you think you can protect her just by marrying that fish that escaped the net into the mansion? You think I don't know anything? "
Yu Lingjing looked at Yu Lingfeng in surprise. So he already knew that his wife was related to the Qi family, so he sent people to assassinate her?
"I want to see how long Royal Uncle can you protect that fish that escaped the net for. "Hahaha …"
Looking at the crown prince's back as he left, Yu Lingjing was shocked. Just how could he protect this little girl?
