Lime had dark circles under her eyes, leaning on the desk with one hand, her head shaking and shaking, and her eyelids seemed to be hanging with a thousand heavy burdens. The lights at hand slowly brightened, occasionally flickering with flames.

"Lime Gatekeeper!" Shen Man didn't know where he suddenly jumped out, approached Lime from behind, and shouted in her ear.

Lime almost jumped up with a wit, glared at her eyes and roared, "What is it called, it scared this girl to death!" ”

Shen Man said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Lime Gate Supervisor, it was the Gate Supervisor who ordered me to wake you up like this." He pouted as he spoke, as if he were pitiful.

Lime touched his chest, smoothed his breathing, and glanced at Shen Man, "Don't think that you will be unscrupulous if you have the gate supervisor as your backer, in Taige, you have not walked as many as the beams of the house that I have climbed." ”

"Oh?" The voice of the gatekeeper came in slowly, sending a chill down Lime's spine. She turned her head awkwardly and stiffly, almost distinctly audible as she could hear the clicking of her own cervical spine.

Tang Jiu Yueyun said lightly, "The Lime Gate Supervisor has been on the beam several times, no wonder this Gate Supervisor always thinks that the beam of the Taige will squeak, it turns out that it is not in disrepair, but-"

"Ahem-" Lime interrupted Tang Jiuyue's yin and yang weirdness, and hurriedly changed the topic of making up for it, "Gate Supervisor, I have checked the list of people who have passed the Yin-Yang Dao Examination in previous years but have not entered the Yin-Yang Prison according to your instructions, and it is true that there are some gains as you said. She deliberately bit the word "you" with extra weight to show her admiration and loyalty to the gate supervisor.

Tang Jiuyue sat down leisurely, Lime spread out the list of transcriptions, and said, "According to the age range you gave, I checked that year's exam and screened out a lot of people, and then excluded those who were excluded from the Yin and Yang Prison, and only these six people remained." ”

Tang Jiuyue nodded with satisfaction, and her gaze quickly swept over the six people on the list. Suddenly, he frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Lime, according to the supervision of this sect, it is time for your calligraphy to go back to the furnace for further study." ”

The lime was pale and pestled there as if it had been frozen.

Shen Man couldn't help but snicker.

"Xiaoman," Tang Jiuyue asked, "Who do you think is the most suspicious of the six people on the list?" ”

Shen Man hesitated and replied, "Why does the gate prison think that the suspect is among these six people?" ”

"The art of dreaming is not trivial, and those who know this art must have profound attainments in the Yin and Yang Dao. In the Dafeng Dynasty, if someone has such an ability, he must have learned it since childhood, which means that his family environment is good, and this person is very smart. What do you think such a smart man would do if he had such a secret technique that he could master? ”

Shen Man said firmly, "Take the Yin and Yang Prison." ”

"That's right," Tang Jiuyue nodded, "This person must have taken the exam, but he didn't succeed in getting in." ”

"Because if he was in the court, we wouldn't know that there was such a person who could use the art of dreaming." Lime Head agreed.

Tang Jiuyue looked at the list, lifted the brush and crossed out a person's name, "I have seen this person before, he is arrogant, not such a calm person." ”

Lime took the brush and crossed out a person's name, "I know this person, he still lives in his home in the capital to prepare for this year's exam, and he won't be the one who has done so many cases." ”

"Then there are only four people left: Shouhua, Ying Sheng, Xu Jingkang and Ding Feng." Tang Jiuyue thought for a moment, "Who are these four people in Kyoto now?" ”

Lime shook her head, "Only Shouhua and Ying Sheng are in Kyoto, and Xu Jingkang and Ding Feng are nowhere to be found." ”

"Send someone to follow Shouhua and Yingsheng."

"What about Xu Jingkang and Ding Feng?"

Tang Jiuyue rubbed her eyebrows, "Go to the library of Taige and take out their scrolls from that year, presumably the two people in the capital, these two people are more suspicious, and the prison can only use the 'Beidou Exploration' to find out the whereabouts of the two of them as a last resort." ”

Lime opened her mouth and stopped, a worried look in her eyes.

Tang Jiuyue knew at a glance that she was thinking about something, it was nothing more than worrying about her body. Turning his eyes at Shen Man, he deliberately pushed her away, "Xiaoman, it's dark outside, you go and see how Lian Yi's bones are drying." ”

Shen Man answered, and when he went out, he saw the moon shining overhead. And on the platform before the Taige jade steps of the arched bridge, there was still a surging crowd that was not commensurate with the moonlight.

Princess Decheng is still here, the eldest prince Zhu Kui has already gone back, and Ning Xiang only sent a housekeeper to guard him from beginning to end. This makes Decheng, who has an extremely noble status, a little prominent.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Tang Jiuyue come out to greet her, but now the inner door of Taige was opened, but a Shen Man came out, which was equivalent to igniting the anger in Decheng's heart, and he rushed to the front of Taige in a few steps and said, "Let Tang Jiuyue come out, the palace has something to talk to her." ”

Shen Man blocked the door, giving the people inside time to close it. smiled and said, "What can the princess talk about tomorrow, today the gate supervisor is consulting the lime gate supervisor, and it is really a little weak." ”

Decheng said, "You dare to stop this palace? ”

Shen Man was a little frightened when he saw her momentum, but he still straightened his back and said, "Princess forgive me." ”

Decheng's eyes rolled, she was originally here to listen to the news today, since she couldn't see Tang Jiuyue, she might as well ask the person in front of her, if she knew, it would be the same.

So he softened and said, "Your name is Shen Man, right?" That's right, Hongu wants to ask you who is this outside? ”

Shen Man smiled and said, "Princess Hui, I don't know reads;." ”

Decheng was not discouraged, "Shen Man, you don't know, this palace has a good relationship with the gate supervisor, if the palace asks the gate supervisor, it will definitely tell the truth to the palace, so you don't have to hide what you know, lest the gate supervisor hold you accountable when the time comes." ”

Shen Man seemed to be really a little frightened, and hesitated, "The princess knows what the use of this matter, could it be that someone asked the princess to ask?" ”

"There is also a palace maid who has died in the palace of this palace, so this palace also wants to know the truth of the matter, including why the gate supervisor will do such a thing at this moment, it is really unbelievable."

"Okay then," Shen Man finally compromised, "I will tell the truth to the princess, and the princess must keep it secret." ”

Decheng smiled and said happily, "Of course." ”

"Actually, this skeleton belongs to Concubine Li's." Shen Man lowered his voice, "The gate warden dug her up from the suburbs and put her here." ”

"It's really Concubine Li's?!" Although Decheng had already expected it, his eyes still widened and he was surprised, "Why did the gate supervisor dig up her bones and come back and not let her be buried in the ground?" ”

Shen Man seemed to say casually, "What else can I do, let her come back." After saying that, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly covered his mouth and stared at Decheng in horror.

Decheng almost suspected that he had misheard.

"What, the gate supervisor wants to resurrect Concubine Li?!"

"Princess Decheng, please spare me, I didn't say anything."

Seeing that she was so distracted, and thinking of Tang Jiuyue's strange behavior, Decheng couldn't help but believe a little bit about it, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Shen Man's soul, so he could only let her go.

"This palace knows, you can go back and do your own thing. If someone asks, you know how to respond. ”

"Yes." When Shen Man passed by Decheng's side, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a treacherous smile. She had already taken such precautions, but she was afraid that she would act unnaturally, but now that she thinks about it, she feels that it is a pity that only she and Decheng know about her acting skills.

It's a pity that Miss Tang didn't see it.

But Shen Man had already completed his task, and he walked with the wind. When she came to Lian Yi's side, Lian Lian Yi sensed her joy and couldn't help asking, "What is so happy about the lack of water?" ”

Shen Man licked his dry lips and said with a smile, "Bai has been the apprentice of the gate supervisor for so long, and it is the first time that he has done an errand for the master. ”

Lian Yi said disdainfully, "What she asked you to do is definitely not a good thing." ”

Shen Man sat side by side with her, helplessly looking at the bones still drying below, and sighed, "It's not a good thing for you to do." ”

The two men looked at each other, and then sighed at the same time with a tacit understanding.

Shen Man looked up at the gradually clear stars, and sighed with emotion, "Tonight will be a sleepless night." ”

Lian Yi pointed to his face and said, "It's almost swollen into a pig's head." ”

Shen Man couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, Lian Yimen Prison, you will be able to recover soon, as long as it is past tonight." ”
