Zhao Yuannan and Wei Shuge didn't know who the 'person' Zhao Jing was referring to, but they could tell from his expression that he definitely wasn't a small character. Combined with Dongfang Wenming's expression when he left, Zhao YuanNan and Wei Shuge looked at each other in dismay, feeling inexplicably anxious.

What was even more disturbing was that by evening, some rumors had already spread outside the palace. Rumors were fiercer than those of tigers. This was probably the rumour that was fiercest at the foot of the imperial city!

Wen Yuye had originally planned to go and identify the corpse, but now that the top scholar had been killed, who would care about Wen Yufeng's case? Therefore, Wen Yuye could only drag it out for a while and wait until he passed the limelight of the top scorer case. The streets were bustling with activity right now. The citizens were whispering about the top scholar, and they were also mentioning the black shadow outside the gates of the Great Fu Mansion. Naturally, there was no doubt about the meaning behind their words.

"Young Master?" He stepped forward and asked, "Then what about Second Young Master's matter?"

"If we don't find out the truth behind this matter, Yu Feng might not be able to rest in peace even if he dies." Wen Yuye stood by the window, coldly watching the people on the street go by.

Zhong Fu frowned. "I heard it too. All the commoners in the hall were discussing in private that the black-clothed man was found near the Supreme Fu Mansion shortly after the death of the top scholar." Heh, the meaning behind his words was that the culprit had snuck into the Supreme Fu Mansion. What kind of place was the Supreme Fu Mansion? Even if the evidence was conclusive, no one would dare to search! Even if Tutor Qi is not in the capital, he still has Prime Minister Ke Er in charge, who would dare be rash?! "

Wen Yuye turned around and glanced at him, but he couldn't figure out what it meant. He smirked, "I really didn't realize that the crown prince could see the situation in the capital so clearly. Since he knew it so well, why did he have to leave Phoenix City and wade in this muddy water? If you were to fall into the hands of Cobalt or the Regent's Estate, guess what your father, His Royal Highness, would do? "

"Stop trying to scare me, I won't do that!" I am me, and my father is my father! " Zhong Fu snorted twice, "Although my father doted on me, he was born into the martial arts world and relied on his fists and life to achieve his current status. Thus, he would definitely not give up on Phoenix City because of me alone. The citizens of Phoenix City, the soldiers of Phoenix City, they are far more important than me! "

Obviously, Wen Yuye did not approve of this. When he heard these words, he let out a light, disdainful snort.

"You don't believe me?" Zhong Fu frowned, "This young master is not bluffing. Although my father only has a son like me, in Phoenix City, even if it's my biological son, there's nothing we can do!" You may think it's a little sentimental, but it's the truth! Life was not as important as power. It was easy to put down difficulties when one took it! Son... There are so many women in my father's family, but my son will still have them, won't he? "

Wen Yuye looked at him but said nothing.

Zhong Fu leisurely sat down. "I can see that you aren't here to collect the corpse."

"Then guess what I'm here for?" Wen Yuye sat down and poured himself a cup of water. He looked at Zhong Fu coldly. This pampered crown prince wasn't that stupid after all!

"I don't have the leisure to guess with you!" I just have some intuition. You're not that simple! From the beginning to the end, you never told me, what do you do? "From the looks of you, you don't look like a son of a rich family, nor like the son of an official, but there's a sense of mean acrimony in your bones, and a cunning old fox from the government!"

Wen Yuye frowned slightly, "An old cunning fox? These words were truly ear-piercing. [If it is someone else talking, I will have a good debate about it. But since it is the Crown Prince, I will treat it as his praise.] "Thank you for your praise, Crown Prince. I hope I can live up to my reputation as a cunning fox in the capital!"

"If you're a government official, you're definitely not a good one!" Chopper stared at him.

However, the others couldn't bear to listen any longer, "Your Highness, please don't slander us. Although our young master didn't do anything important, he isn't the kind of person who goes against the conscience! Young Master manages Wenchang County, and currently, every family has been staying indoors all night, and you haven't picked up a single thing from the road, who knows how many times better you are compared to those people who can't even talk themselves into doing it! "

"Wenchang County?" Zhong Fu widened his eyes. "Are you really an official?"

"Untalented... It's just a small official, a ninth rank county! " Wen Yuye mocked in a teasing tone, "And just as the prince had predicted, this official isn't a good official! "To take advantage of others, to coerce others, to coerce others and to tempt them, and to do everything!" He leaned close to Zhong Fu, laughing in a low voice, "In fact, he even gave the order to let the fire go! Apart from killing people, this official has done all the petty tricks that the crown prince could think of! In order to achieve our goals, we will do anything. "

With that, Wen Yuye straightened up. "Is Your Highness satisfied with this answer?"

Zhong Fu stared at Wen Yuye in disbelief. He really couldn't tell that this person was this … Looking at that gentle and gentle appearance, he seemed to be a weak and gentle person. Who would have thought that he was actually a vicious and vicious person? Zhong Fu thought to himself, this Zhong Fu is probably someone who would choose no matter what the result is. Whoever dares to provoke him will be in big trouble! This person could do anything!

"Aren't officials supposed to uphold justice for the people?" "Why are you doing this?"

"Wicked and cunning, good people have to be even more evil than evil people in order to live in this world!" Wen Yuye's eyes turned heavy.

However, those words seemed to make a lot of sense.

Zhong Fu rubbed his forehead. He knew that he could only talk about Wen Yuye, so he changed the topic. "What do you think the Emperor would do if he knew about the news from the Supreme Fu Mansion?" "Would the punishment be Qi Yunshan?"

Wen Yuye sipped his tea and looked at him indifferently. "Your majesty doesn't have the ability to punish the Great Fu Estate, not to mention that there's even Prime Minister Ke Er. Your majesty doesn't dare!" However, the Emperor has to do something in order to show his status as the Lord of the world. That's why the Regent's Estate will be in use at this time. "

"Dongfang Buming, that dog thief! Hey, tell me, are the assassins of the Supreme Fu Mansion really going to kill these people? Including killing your brothers? " Beauvoir asked.

Wen Yuye looked thoughtfully at Zhong Fu, "If it was you, would you do this?"

Zhong Fu was speechless.

"The news has spread so fast that it has probably reached the ears of the emperor already!" Wen Yuye put down his cup. "The emperor will make his move soon!"

Zhong Fu was startled, and Wen Banxian started his fortune-telling again?

Zhao Jing had indeed learned of this news. Not only Zhao Jing, but everyone else in the palace was discussing it. It was unknown who had brought this information into the palace.

Qi Ruyu was anxiously walking back and forth in the great hall. A thin layer of sweat was seeping out of her forehead. It could be seen that this matter had a great effect on her. Hu Feng, the head eunuch of the Xi Wu Palace, came running in from outside. "Esteemed Empress, esteemed Empress!"

"How is it?" Qi Ruyu hurried over to welcome him, "Is this news true?"

"In reply to the empress, this servant asked around. There's no need to mention the palace, the news outside the palace has spread like wildfire. Everyone in the capital probably knows that there was a man in black who snuck into the Residence of Taifu when the top scholar was killed." Hu Feng's face was slightly pale and his breathing quickened. "Empress, don't you think that the emperor knows about this?"

Qi Ruyu fell to the ground, rouge rushing forward to support her. "Empress? "Empress, you can't fall down. Now that the Imperial Tutor is no longer here, you have to make a decision!" If the Emperor really was going to punish the Great Fu Mansion, what should he do? Even if we have the support of the prime minister, it won't be of any use. Don't forget, behind the emperor, there's also a Regent's Mansion! "

What should he do? How could Qi Ruyu know what to do? This room was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood and the buddhist beads in her hands. If even she could not protect the peace of the Qi Family, what could a weak girl like her do? Who knew what his father was thinking? Even if Qi Rufeng was dead, didn't he still have a daughter like her? How could Father place such a huge fortune on that outsider Ke Bo Li? How could Cobb work wholeheartedly for the Qi family, now that he had grown wings and wings?

When she thought here, Qi Ruyu was even more confused, she was at a loss for what to do for a moment!

"How about I send a letter?" "Esteemed Empress, there's no time to delay this matter. Please write a letter and this servant will immediately send it out to him."

"Far water can't save fire!" Qi Ruyu frowned, "At the moment, only I can personally go to the Qian Yuan Palace to explain things. If the Emperor really believes the words of the vile people outside, then even if I have one hundred mouths, I still wouldn't be able to say it clearly! " She hurriedly put down the Buddha beads in her hands, "Hurry, help me change my clothes, I want to go to the Heaven's Temple!"

Yanzhi quickly took out her clothes and changed the plain clothes on Qi Ruyu's body.

Qi Ruyu straightened her posture and tried her best to calm herself down, then slowly walked towards the Qian Yuan Palace. She was the empress. In the eyes of the palace maids, the empress was a person who cultivated the mind and the soul. She was a rare and quiet person. Thus, Qi Ruyu thought, in the eyes of the emperor, has her image also changed? If there were any changes, then wouldn't his words have some weight when he came to the emperor?

Outside the palace, Zhao Yuannan's eyes widened. What kind of day was it today that the empress, who had never stepped out of the palace, would come to the Qian Yuan Palace? Zhao Yuannan snapped out of his daze and saluted. "Greetings, esteemed empress. The empress has lived for thousands of years!"

"Where's the emperor? I have urgent matters to discuss with the Emperor! " Qi Ruyu strode inside.

Zhao Yuannan hastened to stop her. "Esteemed Empress …"

"Long live the Empress!" Wei Shuge walked out of the hall and bowed respectfully to Qi Ruyu, blocking her path. "The emperor is taking a nap, I'm afraid the empress won't be able to enter!" Empress, you also know that the emperor doesn't like to be disturbed, especially when he's resting. "If the Empress insists on going in, this servant will not stop you!"

With that, Wei Shuge opened up a path.

This way, Qi Ruyu did not dare to enter the door. She stood still, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuannan hurriedly gave her a way out. "How about the Empress go back first, and when the emperor wakes up, this servant will definitely report to the emperor that you have come. What do you think, Empress? "

"I … Go to the side chamber and wait there! " Qi Ruyu turned around and walked towards the side chamber.

Wei Shuge signaled Zhao Yuannan with her eyes. Zhao Yuannan then stood guard in the corridor and stared in the direction of the side hall. Wei Shuge returned to the bedroom and carefully closed the door. "Your majesty, the empress isn't willing to leave. She'll be waiting in the side chamber. I'm sure she wants to see you!"

With a "kacha" sound, Zhao Jing cut off the random flowers and slowly placed them into the vase. With a satisfied smile, he said, "You really are an unattainable woman. It's hard to change your nature. I'm afraid someone will jump!"
