It rained heavily in the middle of the night, as if it wanted to drown the entire capital.

Outside the capital, a few figures were running along the ropes in the rain. The soldiers who were guarding the city could not take the heavy rain and they all went into hiding.

However, these figures ignored the heavy rain.

They ran on the muddy road towards the forest outside of the city. There was a tent in the forest.

In front of the tent was a man with an umbrella, facing the city.

"Master, we missed." A man in black was kneeling on the ground. He had taken off his mask and it was as if he had fallen into water.

"I failed, I actually failed." The man with the umbrella muttered.

"Didn't you make a move at the palace? When Prince Yi returns, Bing Ling will definitely pay a visit. " That person's eyes emitted a killing intent.

"I was lying in ambush in the prince's mansion, but the maidservant beside me found out about it." The leader was captured alive. " The people kneeling on the ground trembled. It was unknown whether they were drenched by the rain or afraid.

"He will not betray me." The man let go of his umbrella, and a cold light flashed in his hand. The men in black all died on the spot.

"But, you guys might not." The man smiled, sheathed his sword, and went back into the tent.

On the third floor of Red Dust Inn, Bing Lanyue sat inside a house, spread out a piece of paper and began to design a city.

Until the latter half of the night, she was still sprawled on the table, modifying.

"Du du du", someone knocked on the door.

"Master, we've already found out. The person Zhang Zhong said was the one who assassinated last time is fake." Ru Zui's voice came from outside.

"Come in." Bing Lanyue rubbed her eyes.

Ru Zui pushed the door and entered, saying: "Mistress, I led my subordinates and rushed to the Upper Forest Garden in the middle of the night. Then, I found a spy from Sanguinarum in the capital and carefully investigated. Only then did I find out that all the assassins from Sanguinarum had died in the capital after the failed assassination attempt. "

Bing Lanyue asked: "Are you sure?"

Ru Zui nodded heavily, the rain in her hair fell as she said: "It's entirely possible, this person is a spy working at Sanguinarum."

"Unreliable." Bing Lanyue said.

"Yes, half a month ago, this subordinate let my subordinates secretly sneak back to the Sanguinarum Division, and only returned tonight. I have already found out the exact information, the last assassination was done by Imperial Concubine Li, and the entire Sanguinarum was destroyed by Imperial Concubine Li as well, so they do not plan to wade in. "We've already stopped." Ru Zui explained.

Bing Lanyue stood up, stretched a little, and said: "Ru Zui, hurry up and go take a hot bath, change into a set of dry clothes, and then rest."

"Yes sir!" Ru Zui turned and left, leaving behind a puddle of water.

No one would have thought that she would actually send her subordinates to dig another grave in the middle of the night. Bing Lanyue put down the brush in her hands, and laid down amidst the chirping of chickens outside the window.

When Bing Lanyue woke up, the sky was already bright. Last night, it had rained heavily, and today, the sun was shining brightly. The effects of the Red Dust Inn were still good, but she only felt a slight heat.

He got up and sat behind the counter after washing up.

She rested her hand on her cheek and thought about the city.

It was probably time for the next assembly. Bing Lanyue asked Meng Xia to prepare a few vegetables and two cool dishes to be served.

The imperial court would be very lively today, the news of Imperial Concubine Bing being assassinated must have spread throughout the entire city.

Bing Lanyue laughed when she thought of this, and Ru Zui, who had always been protecting her, looked at her strangely. She did not understand why her master was so calm today.

Bing Lanyue was unaffected by this, she quietly waited, waiting to catch all of her enemies, openly and secretly.

The assassination last night, was definitely not ordered by the Imperial Concubine Li, because when she found out that the assassins who died had injuries on their right arms, she already knew.

If she died in the Prince Yi Palace, then who wouldn't be able to escape? Prince Yi!

If that was the case, Imperial Concubine Bing and Prince Yi would be killed at the same time in the Duke Palaces, and it was at night as well. Then, wouldn't the entire city be filled with the beautiful news between her and the Prince Yi?

Therefore, there must be someone else who was secretly against her.

In the end, Bing Lanyue did not have a clue as to who it was. She even thought of the Madam Lin because the Madam Lin was missing.

"Ru Zui, do you think I'm crazy? I was just assassinated last night, how can I laugh today?" Bing Lanyue tilted her head and asked with a smile.

Ru Zui held onto the longsword and after a slight hesitation, she said. "I don't dare, this subordinate was thinking just now that Xuanyuan Guxing would not come seek revenge, so who exactly is it?"

Bing Lanyue laughed: "We can deal with it when it's necessary, what is there to be conflicted about, the more difficult life is, the more we need to live it."

"That's true." Ru Zui was deeply moved.

At this time, a person walked in from outside. From the corner of her eyes, Bing Lanyue saw someone walk in, and without even turning her head, she said, "Today's Red Dust Inn is not open."

"Sister Sister Bing, Imperial Concubine Bing, there's no need to be so heartless, right? A familiar voice came from the door.

Bing Lanyue looked carefully, and it was actually Cheng Maohua.

"Oh, a rare guest, a rare guest. However, Red Dust Inn is indeed not open for business today." Bing Lanyue laughed.

"It's fine, it's not open for business. Give me two vats of wine, I can still buy them in the beginning, but when I came back, all of my Red Dust Inn were restricted. I'm so hungry." Cheng Maohua stared at the counter behind Bing Lanyue.

Bing Lanyue blushed with shame, she was the one who suggested the idea of limited purchase.

"Two vats? Are you going to use it for a bath? " Bing Lanyue huffed and puffed as she placed her hands on her waist.

"Hehe, little sister Sister Bing, there's still a shy guy outside who doesn't dare to come in." Cheng Maohua pointed to the door and said: "Give him one of the two vats I want."

Hm? Who is it? Bing Lanyue laid on the counter as she turned her head to look outside. She only saw Zhang Xu's face completely flushed red, and standing there awkwardly.

"Big brother Zhang Xu, why didn't you come in?" Bing Lanyue called out.

Cheng Maohua chuckled: "He originally wanted to come in, but when he heard his sister say that today would not be the day of business, he refused to come in even if his life depended on it."

"Hur hur, I don't have any in two vats. Everyone can have a jar. Sorry, but today we are not open for business." Bing Lanyue held onto a jar of wine while Ru Zui held onto a jar of wine.

"Here, here. What's there to be embarrassed about, take it. " Bing Lanyue walked out of the door and stuffed the jar of wine into Zhang Xu's hands.

"Esteemed Empress, this …" Zhang Xu's face became even redder.

Bing Lanyue waved her hands: "There isn't any empress in the Red Dust Inn, only me, Bing Lanyue, take it, I have no other choice but to do so. Food is currently in short supply, the local tyrants have migrated and brought the food away, as if they were afraid of starving to death, they don't even want to sell a single grain.

Cheng Maohua held onto the wine jar tightly: "I'll send someone to send you a few carriages later."

Zhang Xu also hugged the wine jar, and bowed slightly: "Thank you, Empress."

Bing Lanyue smiled and said: "Sorry, today, another day, come to the inn and drink enough. However, in the future, at Red Dust Inn, do not ever call out the Empress' name again. "Seems quite different."

Zhang Xu nodded his head vigorously, he carried the wine jar as if he was holding a gold ingot and left the place.

When the two of them walked a distance away, Ru Zui asked: "Master, why are you being so courteous to these two?"

"Young, one is a thousand households, and one is a general. Moreover, both of them have very strong backgrounds. I'm not being polite to them, but to the people behind them."

Ru Zui nodded, suddenly enlightened.

"It's about time, I'm so hungry, why aren't you back yet?" Bing Lanyue was panicking.

Ru Zui smiled. She felt that the Bing Lanyue today was very different from before.

Bing Lanyue looked at the back of Cheng Maohua and Zhang Xu, her mouth raised slightly, thinking that it was time to raise a group of people in the imperial court.

The Zhang Clan and Cheng Clan did not have high status in the imperial court, but they were still on good terms with him. If it were not for the support of their respective clans, perhaps they would not have come to find him.

There were people in the court who were easy to handle.

Of course, there was another saying: The county magistrate may as well be in charge now. Their family's official positions were not big, but they could be found in various places, and these families of officials in the capital were all related by marriage, so they had a large amount of power. Bing Lanyue knew that being on good terms with them would be beneficial to her Longmen Escort Office and Longmen Escort Office.

Just as Bing Lanyue was calculating, a warrior ran over and stopped the horse at the entrance of the Red Dust Inn.

The man looked at Ru Zui, then looked at Bing Lanyue, and immediately dismounted: "Big sister, there's an urgent matter to the south."

"What urgent matter?" Bing Lanyue asked.

The man looked around, and Bing Lanyue immediately understood, and said: "Let's talk inside."

"Yes sir!" Ru Zui was still guarding outside the door, observing her surroundings carefully. She could see that there seemed to be nothing abnormal in the surroundings.

With the assassination incident last night, Ru Zui and Huo Feng discussed and decided to let Bing Lanyue stay in the Imperial Palace. After all, in such a big place as the Kun'an Palace, there were a lot of the imperial guards and Euphorbia Salicifolia Maxim, and with Huo Feng's subordinates around, it would be very safe.

But Bing Lanyue didn't want to, so they kept working from the night before until morning before finally placing everyone around the West Market.

There was news of their safety.

"What is it? Why are you in such a hurry?" Bing Lanyue asked.

The man took out a wooden box which was sealed with fire wax. Bing Lanyue nodded and said, "Alright, you can go and rest first."

Who knew that the person who came would say, "After Big Sis finished reading the letter, she immediately replied. Boss Broken Stream is waiting for you in the territory of the Crown Prince. "

Bing Lanyue immediately opened the wooden box and took a glance inside, she could not help but be shocked.

As stated in the letter, the Crown Prince did not return to the fief, but went missing. Duan Liu was trying his best to track down the information.

Monarch Moli actually isn't in the feudal fiefdom. Didn't he leave half a month ago? How could he not be in the feudal fiefdom? Why did Broken Stream suddenly go to the territory of the Crown Prince? Could it be that there was something inconvenient to say and he had to find evidence?

"Alright, just you wait." Bing Lanyue went upstairs and wrote her reply.
