"Mercy, your majesty, mercy!"

The moment she heard that they were going to send her to marble temple, the palace maid hastily opened his mouth and begged for forgiveness. It must be known that marble temple was a place for interrogation of important cases.

Yuwen Jue did not care about her, without being instructed, he did not dare to be careless, and immediately brought someone in to drag his down.

The court lady's face turned pale. She gripped the door frame of the royal study tightly, refusing to let go even when blood started to flow from her fingertips. Her eyes were full of pleading.

It was just that this pleading gaze, Huai Jin didn't know if it was because of the servants pulling on him, but she felt that their gazes were fixated on Pu Xin.

In the end, the little palace maid was still unable to resist the pulling of the servants. His hands became weak, and he was directly pulled out by the servants.

Seeing that there was no hope, the little palace maid then shouted in a mournful voice, "This servant's moves, this servant has admitted it!"

Hearing that, Yuwen Jue called Li Changde and the others back.

The little palace maid's hands were already stained with blood, his dark eyes were filled with a sense of desolation. "I was the one who put the hairpin in the air vent."

She had already admitted it, and the people in the hall were not too surprised. The little palace maid knelt below and narrated what had happened in a tearful voice.

This included how to remind the empress dowager to go to the Cloud Locking Pavilion, as well as how to calculate the time and throw the hairpin into the air vent when no one was looking.

Everything went smoothly, but when she was asked who ordered it, she stuttered, and only when Yuwen Jue finally could not hold it in anymore and shouted angrily did she speak out, "Yes … It's the Wu Bo Hou. "

Wu Bo Hou. Huai Jin was not unfamiliar, the previous Luo Wenya was the young miss of the Marquis de Vobo's Mansion, and if her memories were not bad, the Marquis de Vobo's Mansion also had a mansion.

When Yuwen Jue heard the name Marquis de Vobo's Mansion, he frowned slightly and looked at Pu Xin who was at the side. Pu Xin nodded and entered the house with his life on guard.

Yuwen Fei looked at the two in front of him with a cold gaze, the fan in his hand rhythmically tapped onto his palm again and again.

When Luo Yan heard the order, he walked in. The peony in his arms was already found and placed in a bottle at the side, and when he came in again, he had already tidied up his clothes. Both of his hands moved forward, and handed over a thick stack of documents to Yuwen Jue.

"Evidence that the Marquis de Vobo's Mansion colluded with Bei Ling... Cough cough … All of them should be here. "

Pu Xin had to endure the pain, but the moment he opened his mouth, he could not help but cough softly.

Yuwen Fei and Huai Jin were shocked when they heard that, the two of them had always thought that since the Emperor had sent the two of them to investigate the Qishan white jade case, the person who was sent should actually be Wei Deliang, after all, he had sent Wei Chengwu to their side. However, they now knew that the person who was secretly investigating the Treason case was actually Pu Xin.

Originally, because Mansion of Xibo Marquis was living in Wuan Lane, the two of them excluded Pu Xin. But who would have thought that Yuwen Jue did not care and still used Pu Xin to investigate.

Just by looking at how quickly Pu Xin was investigating, they could already see that the two of them had not found out about the Qishan white jade s yet, but Pu Xin had already found evidence that Bei Ling had colluded with the Marquis de Vobo's Mansion.

No matter how shrewd he was, it was impossible for him to surpass his cultivation realm and obtain any important military secrets. There was definitely someone among them who would help, and even if he did not openly help, he would have definitely helped to unravel a lot of secrets.

But even if he said that the Wu Bo Hou was the mastermind, what relationship did the Wu Bo Hou have with Su Geying? The letter in Ji An's hand had a Ling, but what did it mean?

Although they had already found out that the Wu Bo Hou was actually Bei Ling's informant, the few people in the imperial study all knew that this matter was far from over.

Coming out from the royal study, the red sun was hanging high in the sky. Li Changde and the other two took a step ahead, taking their royal decree to marble temple and the Marquis de Vobo's Mansion to declare it. Huai Jin and the other two walked out of the royal study at a leisurely pace, passing through the corridor above the Moon Mirror Lake and heading towards the Tai He Bridge.

Because of Pu Xin's weak body, his footsteps were rather slow, as if Yuwen Fei was taking care of him, he also slowed down, causing Huai Jin, who was walking in front, to always stop from time to time to wait for the two people behind him.

Mirror Moon Lake could be considered a large artificial lake in the imperial palace. The entire lake covered the entire imperial study room from the office to the study room. With such construction, the imperial study room wouldn't be too stuffy during the summer.

"If I remember correctly, Master Hou fell into the lake at that time."

When he was about to finish walking along the corridor on the Moon Clear Lake, Yuwen Fei suddenly stopped and said to Yuwen Fei who was behind him.

Because of this, Pu Xin also stopped in his tracks. His pitch-black eyes somewhat drifted and landed on the dark green surface of the lake, and only after a while did he slowly sigh.

The calm surface of the lake reflected the sunlight above them. A gentle breeze blew, causing ripples on the surface. For a moment, countless spots of light appeared.

As Huai Jin walked along the shore, he turned her head to look at the two people who were still standing on the porch. The sunlight shone down from behind them and wrapped their bodies in a ball of light and shadow, causing them to be unable to see anything.

She squinted, and first looked at Yuwen Fei in front of her. Yuwen Fei's figure gradually became clearer within that ball of light, and then turned blurry, faintly giving her a familiar feeling.

The two of them spoke out, their eyes were fixated on the surface of the lake, Huai Jin followed their gazes and looked at the lake's surface.

Yuwen Fei once said that Pu Xin fell into the water in the palace when he was five years old, which caused him to become ill.

Huai Jin faced the sunlight, and looked at the green figure with half-squinting eyes, straight as bamboo, warm as the wind. Who would have thought that such a person would actually carry so much burden since childhood? Every time he went to visit the royal study, he would have to pass by the lake and reopen her scars.

Another gust of autumn wind blew by. Pu Xin pulled up the cloak on his body and said somewhat helplessly: "Pu Xin cannot endure the wind, the lake's surface has a huge upper hand. I hope Seventh Prince will understand and quickly leave this place."

"Look at me, I forgot." Yuwen Fei laughed, then used the fan in his hand to strike his head, as he apologetically bowed to Pu Xin to apologize.

"Seventh Prince, it's better for you to hurry up and leave. I don't know how much wind my Marquis will blow while you're apologizing." Luo Yan was a straightforward person, but he also wanted to protect his master. Facing Yuwen Fei, he did not hide anything, and directly voiced out his inner discontent.

"Luo Yan!" Pu Xin reprimanded his in a low voice, then turned around and apologized to Yuwen Fei: "Pu Xin's control is not strict, I hope that Seventh Prince can forgive me."
