Fei Mo paused, thinking that it was really because of Yanran. The heavy rain was approaching, and Fei Mo snatched the umbrella from the little eunuch's hand and gave it to Xue Tianaocheng on the top of his head, "Miss Yanran said yesterday that she would leave the palace for a few days if she had something to do, and she would come back after dealing with the matter." ”

"Who allowed her to leave the palace, and what did she think of my palace? Come and go as you want? Xue Tianao said angrily.

Fei Mo was stunned again, and whispered, "Your Majesty, it is the Yanran girl token that you personally gave her, in addition to not following certain rules in the palace, you can also enter and leave the palace at any time, and order the people below not to restrict her freedom." ”

Xue Tianao was also stunned, gritted his teeth, which tendon was wrong to agree to her such a condition in the first place?

The rain was pouring down, and Fei Mo tried his best to cover the umbrella in front of him, while he was drenched outside, but despite this, the corners of Xue Tianao's clothes were still soaked. Seeing Fei Mo and the little eunuch standing in the rain, drenched and soaked, Xue Tianao sighed slightly, and then turned around and walked towards the hall.

After entering, he changed into clean clothes, lit incense in the side hall of the imperial study, and asked people to prepare a cup of ginseng tea and put it in front of him. ”

Xue Tianao lowered his head and drank tea, paused slightly, and his eyes darkened a little, "What do you mean by this?" Then he lowered his head and took a sip of ginseng tea. Outside, the rain grew louder, the sky was cloudy, and the cool breeze that blew through the window with the smell of rain rolled up the robes at his feet.

He couldn't help but feel a little chill on his body.

"The emperor's subordinates know that you have a deep affection for Miss Xiao, but she has passed away. The person in front of her was not her, but Yanran. Fei Mo persuaded that Xue Tianao seemed to be getting deeper and deeper recently.

Xue Tianao listened to the sound of rain outside, and gently closed his eyes, "Feimo, you are my personal guard, you have followed me for so many years and understand my thoughts. Don't I know she's not Wanyao? ”

"But the emperor's ...... to her" seems to have been emotional.

Xue Tianao took a deep breath, because of the rain, the air was filled with a damp smell, what he had done recently was indeed a bit chaotic, and sometimes, he couldn't help it, and it was difficult to control himself.

He slowly put down the teacup and said softly, "There are so many concubines in my harem, you don't say anything. Could it be that one more Yanran will hinder your eyes? She is not Wanyao, but who sees her as Wanyao? Xue Tianao's mouth carried a trace of disdain and cold arrogance.

Fei Mo also heard an anger, and he was very unhappy with what he had just said.

Fei Mo paused slightly, but he didn't feel strange at all, not only that he was in the eyes of others, but also knew that Xue Tianao was extraordinary to Yanran, and it was a matter of time before he accepted a concubine, but Fei Mo always felt that something was wrong, probably because he had followed Xue Tianao for too long, because he understood his temperament, so he was worried about his true heart.

"Miss Yanran is also attentive to the emperor, and she has cared for the emperor in all aspects since she entered the palace. Concubine Na doesn't have anything, it's just that the emperor is so attentive to her, is he treating Miss Yanran or Miss Xiao? ”

Xue Tianao was a little stunned, and his heart seemed to be at a loss, and after a long time, he slowly spoke, as if he was lucky, expectant, and even a little self-deceptive, and said, "You say, could Yanran be Wanyao?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Fei Mo was stunned again, looking at Xue Tianao's calm and handsome face, he was resolute in his work, conspiracy and calculation were omnipotent, as an emperor at the moment, he was not only using to win people's hearts, but also ruthless means and calculations behind him.

Indifferent, arrogant, domineering, persistent, ruthless, vicious, calculating, and conspiratorial. It's just that the softest part of his heart has always been left to only one person.

Fei Mo didn't want to hit him, Xue Tianao was not a child, his sharp judgment was beyond ordinary people, although he couldn't help it, but his heart knew very well that Yan Ran was not Xiao Wanyao, and it was precisely because of this calmness and sobriety that he was tormented by pain.

He prefers to drink with Yanran, and when he is half-drunk and half-awake, he can let go of the cruelty of reality, let go of the tangled concerns, and regard the person in front of him as the person in his heart.

"Why did the emperor say that? Could it be that the emperor thinks that there is anything about Miss Yanran that is the same as Miss Xiao? Fei Mo said.

Xue Tianao was slightly stunned, and suddenly turned his head with a touch of excitement, "Yanran doesn't use herbs, she doesn't know how to make dim sum, in the past, Yanran had pride, chivalry, and courage." But now she has tenderness, restraint and forbearance. ”

The more Xue Tianao talked about it, the more he felt that Yan Ran at this moment was Xiao Wanyao, "I still remember the last time I went to the Imperial Pharmacy, that Doctor Le walked out of the house with a book." At that time, Yan Ran had not read the contents of the book, but she still explained the medicinal properties of that herb clearly. If it were a Jianghu woman and a Jiangyang thief, would she be interested in this kind of thing? ”

After Xue Tianao said this, Fei Mo remembered the scene of the day, it was indeed a little different from before, and he always thought that it was because he didn't know her, so he had this feeling, is it true......

Fei Mo looked at Xue Tianao and thought of one thing in his heart, "Miss Yanran and Miss Xiao know each other, she has always said that many things were taught to her by Miss Xiao, but there is one thing, Yanran will know Miss Xiao but will not." ”

"What?"

"Miss Xiao doesn't know martial arts, but Yanran has excellent martial arts, the emperor knows this!" Fei Mo reminded.

Xue Tianao also woke up suddenly, "Yes, I actually forgot about this. Since Yan Ran entered the palace, she has never used martial arts again, and she has easily adapted to life in the palace, and even knows a lot of people in the palace. For a charlatan woman, this seems a bit abnormal. ”

Originally, I thought it was just Xue Tianao thinking about it for a while, but after he reminded him like this, he felt that Yan Ran was a little strange. Completely different from what she described herself, Fei Mo gasped and said in shock, "Could it be that Miss Yanran is really Miss Xiao?" ”

"The two of them are originally difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, Wan Yao and Yan Ran know each other, if she pretends to be Yan Ran to enter the palace, it is very similar to her approach." Xue Tianao stood up, a smile on the corner of his mouth. His hands clenched slightly, and he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

Xiao Wanyao was standing on the side of the hall door, staring at the pouring rain outside in a daze, and suddenly sneezed several times in a row, rubbing her nose vigorously, could it be that she was going to catch a cold?

Just thinking that someone was wearing a warm coat on his body, he turned around and found that it was destiny, and then smiled, "Aren't you playing with Rui'er in the back?" How did you come to the front again? ”

"Cheng Jin has been complaining about Ye Bing there, and I really can't stand listening to it, and I came to see you. It's windy, don't catch a cold, the wounds on your body haven't fully recovered. Heavenly Destiny said softly, although the people in front of him are all wonderful, have nothing to do with each other, and have their own lives, but there is such a group of people who obey Xiao Wanyao, are attracted to her by her side, and form a big family.

It's noisy all day long, and the trivial things are constant, which is extremely boring, but it's hard to give up.

"Heh......" Xiao Wanyao chuckled, "He's still worried about Ye Bing, it's not that he sues him, Ye Bing doesn't have a hobby in this area." If he wants to find Ye Bing, he can only go to find death. ”

Tianfang also smiled slightly, stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the heavy rain outside and smiled, "Probably he also knows this in his heart, so he is hiding here and not daring to go out." ”

The two of them smiled at the same time, stood on the side of the door, and Tianming glanced back at her and asked, "You must have something important when you leave the palace this time, but I haven't seen you speak, could it be that you have encountered something troublesome?" ”

Xiao Wanyao's eyes suddenly sank, and then she said, "That's right, there are indeed some things. Since she learned that Xue Tianao's concubine was pregnant, she hid from him for many days, was upset, and couldn't calm down, so she decided to leave the palace.

"What bothers you so much?" Destiny asked, and saw that she had something on her mind in the morning, but she didn't open her mouth for a few days when she came back, so she took the initiative to come over and ask.

Xiao Wanyao's eyes gradually became colder, a little cooler than the rain outside, "Do you know the Seventh Prince Tang Mingxuan?" ”

Heavenly Destiny nodded, and his eyes couldn't help but be infected with murderous aura, "How can you not know that your body injury is not due to him." ”

"This man shall not linger for long."

Destiny looked at her with a faint smile, "You finally remembered to take revenge, I thought you were so soft that you were slaughtered." It's not like your style at all. ”

Xiao Wanyao also laughed, indeed her heart was as cold as a rock except for that person.

"What do you say you're going to do with him? As I recently investigated, he has always been accompanied by a personal guard with a knife, and he is also protected by a secret guard. It's a bit difficult to get started, but as long as you find the right time, it's not hard to deal with him. As long as you promise to let me do it. "Destiny recommended himself, he had long wanted to kill Tang Mingxuan. It's just that Xiao Wanyao hasn't let him do it.

"You don't need to kill him, my revenge should naturally be avenged by myself."

"You?" Looking at Xiao Wanyao, whose eyes were getting darker and darker, Heavenly Destiny was a little puzzled, Tang Mingxuan himself was strong in martial arts, coupled with the protection of the guards around him, it was very difficult for Xiao Wanyao to even get close, how could he start.

On this day, the weather cleared.

Xiao Wanyao deliberately dressed up, brought a bewitching smile, took the prepared silver needle, and went out alone. During this period, she deliberately walked around Tang Mingxuan's mansion, and sure enough, Tang Mingxuan's people quickly followed her. She smiled, turned around and walked towards the mansion of Lord Li, an important minister in the court.

Tang Mingxuan was quite surprised when he learned that Master Li had let Xiao Wanyao enter the mansion, "How could Yanran go to Lord Li?" ”

The military advisor on the side said, "The emperor asked Ye Bing to search for Yanran's whereabouts in the mansion last time, but he didn't get any evidence. Presumably Yanran went to him because of this matter. ”

"But why now?" Tang Mingxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, Lord Li was a person from his side, supporting him to ascend the throne as the emperor. He naturally didn't believe that Lord Li would betray himself because of a little woman beside the emperor. But I can't help but have some doubts in my heart.

Here, after Xiao Wanyao entered Lord Li's mansion, she sat down leisurely in the hall, and before Lord Li could speak, Xiao Wanyao said unceremoniously, "How is the case that Emperor Li sent you to investigate?" ”

Master Li looked at Xiao Wanyao for a while, thinking about the purpose of her coming here, and then said in a cold voice, "Miss Yanran can't remember what happened at that time, and this matter needs to be investigated in detail." Please be patient and wait. ”

Yanran smiled and skimmed at Master Li, "Don't wait, I think who arrested me at that time." I hereby come to sue Lord Sù Lee. ”

Chapter 324: Calculation

Master Li - Li Zhengzong, the Taishi of the Wei State, was in charge of drafting documents, ordering princes and doctors, recording historical events, and also managing classics, calendars, sacrifices, etc. His status in the court is not low, because Xue Tianao, a halfway prince, is a bit unjustifiable, so in his eyes, he has always regarded Xue Tianao as a thorn in his side.

Naturally, there will be no good words in the pen, some time ago Xue Tianao was angry with him for a while because he recorded historical events, his words were sharp, and he wanted Xue Tianao to abdicate.

Such a person is an important minister in the court, and now Xue Tianao's power in the court is unstable, and he can't be moved lightly. Since Xue Tianao ascended the throne, he has been in trouble everywhere, and everyone can embarrass him. But no one saw his hard work in dealing with military affairs.

However, this was originally the case with the court, and this was originally the fate of the emperor.

There is a saying that the winner is the king and the loser is the loser, and how many people will ask how you won the victory? How many people care about how many people's blood you have trampled on and stood on the throne of kings? As long as you have power, there will naturally be people who will attach to you, Xue Tianao is the life of the king, although this throne is indeed a bit unjustifiable.

But he is dedicated to the people of Wei, loves the people like a son, and has political means, looking at the entire court, who is more qualified to be the emperor than him?

Li Zhengzong looked at Xiao Wanyao with a faint smile on his face, and snorted coldly in his heart, he is nearly sixty years old and has read countless people, including Tang Siqi, he is also a veteran of the Three Dynasties, but his thinking is stubborn and old-fashioned, Xue Tianao is the son of Concubine Yun and the prince of the first emperor, so he is naturally qualified to inherit the throne.

It's just that he has never been his prince, so he vigorously supported Tang Mingxuan to ascend the throne as emperor in the court. Relying on the power in the court, Xue Tianao was squeezed out in various ways. Xiao Wanyao had long looked at this old thing unpleasantly.

She looked at his indifferent eyes, and the smile on her face became even brighter, "Master Li, I'm here to tell you the facts of the case, don't you have anything to ask me?" ”

Li Zhengzong's small eyes narrowed, stroked his goatee, and said, "Miss Yanran, the emperor sent no investigation into your disappearance and arrest last time, I have already asked you, you said that you don't remember who arrested you, and you don't remember where you went." What has happened in recent days? ”

The corners of Xiao Wanyao's eyebrows twitched, this old thing, I said it very clearly just now, I already remember where I went and what happened, and I was still here with my eyes open and pretending to be confused, but she still smiled, "I remember it now!" So I came to sue you. ”

Li Zhengzong snorted coldly again, he didn't look at her, and he was even more angry in his heart, Xue Tianao actually let himself investigate these boring cases for the sake of a woman, and why did he let him investigate this case with a Taishi? Could it be that all the people in Dali Temple are dead?

"Hmm...... So you remember! Well, remember well, remember well. He nodded, and looked like he was pretending to be confused.

Xiao Wanyao was not angry, he smirked, "Master Li, I remember that I was in a daze like I was enchanted, my feet were fluttering, after leaving the palace, I felt like I was flying, I knew it very well in my mind, but I just didn't know why I couldn't open my eyes, I opened them hard~ I opened them hard, and finally I opened them." ”

Li Zhengzong paused, his eyes glanced at her, what is this stupid girl talking about?

Xiao Wanyao ignored her, stood up and described what happened to her at that time, she said, and gestured with her hand, so that the maids on the side couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh, she didn't care so much, and continued to exaggerate, "When I opened my eyes, I was sitting on a cloud, right in the air, my soul was scared away, the buildings below, the village!" They all became dots, I couldn't see anything, and my shouts for help were not heard. So I hid in the clouds to see where the clouds were trying to take me. ”

Li Zhengzong cut coldly, impatient in his heart, but he didn't interrupt her, who let this errand be asked by the emperor, so he had to listen patiently, "After that, I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up, I found myself in a city god temple outside the city." ”

Li Zhengzong really couldn't listen to it anymore and got up and said, "Then can you see who kidnapped you?" ”

"Of course I saw it clearly, it was the Seventh Prince." Xiao Wanyao said with great certainty.

Li Zhengzong was stunned, and even the maid on the side was stunned, thinking that it was a story of fairies and ghosts, listening to her tell it was so interesting, but there was a seventh prince here, and no one present dared to say anything.

Li Zhengzong asked the others to step back, leaving only Xiao Wanyao and himself, "You said you saw the Seventh Prince?" ”

"Yes, it's definitely him." Xiao Wanyao nodded very affirmatively.

Li Zhengzong slapped his palm on the table, "It's nonsense, the Seventh Prince never left the city that day, there are no ghosts and gods in this world at all, I think you just escaped from the palace by yourself and wanted to give the Seventh Prince." ”

Xiao Wanyao blinked, "I'll never lie." You see, I saw a letter in the temple at the time. As she spoke, she took out a letter from her body and handed it to Li Zhengzong.

After Li Zhengzong saw the letter, his face suddenly turned pale, and the momentum of scolding Xiao Wanyao just now was completely gone.

Xiao Wanyao stood there still smiling, but there was a touch of coldness and murderous intent in her smile, "Lord Li? Master Lee......" she shouted. Li Zhengzong trembled and came back to his senses, "You, this is what you picked up?" ”

"That's right! It's in the City God Temple outside the city, Lord Li, do you know what those words written on it mean? On the day of the beginning of autumn, he sent troops to kill the king. "Simple eight words, when Xiao Wanyao read it, every word smashed into his heart like a stone.

Xiao Wanyao still didn't come back to his senses, and chuckled, "Lord Li, I see that your face is not good, isn't it unwell?" If so, come back another day. The letter will be handed over to Master Li. With that, Xiao Wanyao turned around and left.

By the time Li Zhengzong came back to his senses, she was no longer here, "Someone, someone......" Li Zhengzong shouted in a panic.

Two small attendants ran from the side hall, "Quick, follow the woman who just left." The two attendants took the order to go out, but Li Zhengzong couldn't sit still, held the letter in his arms, and hurried out of the mansion.

When he came to another mansion not far from his home, he soon saw his son, Li Sheng, and slapped the letter in front of him with one palm, "It's all a good thing you did, why are you so confused." ”

Li Sheng is a young general of Wei State, a subordinate of the new general Fang Tianlang, who has made military exploits with Fang Tianlang, Xue Tianao gradually began to promote trust in order to consolidate his throne, and Fang Tianlang is his newly promoted person.

Li Sheng is young and vigorous, unwilling to be just a young general, although he has repeatedly made military exploits, but Xue Tianao does not seem to have much appreciation for him, but let Fang Tianlang become a general, and he is angry for a while, it was at this time that Tang Mingxuan found him to use power as a temptation and asked him to help him snatch the throne.

In order to hide people's eyes, the connection between Li Sheng and Tang Mingxuan will be in the City God Temple outside the city, Xiao Wanyao in order to investigate who has bad intentions in the court, but inadvertently discovered the matter of Li Sheng and Tang Mingxuan.

She had been struggling with not being able to move the two of them, and this time she got her chance.

Li Zhengzong sighed, although he strongly supported Tang Mingxuan, he still built Tang Mingxuan to hold back for the time being, and wait until the time to deal with Xue Tianao. I didn't expect him to be so impatient.

And Tang Mingxuan pulled his only baby son into the water in order to let Li Zhengzong completely support him, and this time Li Zhengzong had to help even if he didn't want to.

Li Sheng glanced at the letter and frowned, "It's just that the woman named Yanran found this letter, and she doesn't have any evidence to prove that this letter is related to me." ”

Li Zhengzong said angrily, "If she doesn't know that this letter is related to you, why did she come to me?" Why not give this letter to someone else, but to me? ”

Li Sheng was also a little worried when he thought about it, after all, it was a little more than a matter, and he had little participation in the intrigue between the DPRK and China, so he had no idea for a while, "Then what should I do?" Could she have already told the emperor about this? ”

Li Zhengzong's face calmed down slightly, "It shouldn't be yet, if she sues the emperor, why should she come to me in person." This woman pretended to be stupid in front of me, but it seemed that there was another purpose behind it. Don't make a noise about it, let's see what that woman wants. ”

Although Li Sheng listened to his father's words and wanted to wait and see, he couldn't bear it anymore after only one night, and rushed to Tang Mingxuan's house early the next morning.

However, the sedan chair was stopped halfway, "If you don't want to die, get out of here!" Otherwise, don't blame the master, my subordinates are ruthless. "The Mandate of Heaven stopped Li Sheng's sedan chair.

Li Sheng's guards rushed forward when they saw that he was the only one, and after the two guards were cleaned up by the destiny of heaven, the others did not dare to step forward and fled in the wilderness.

Heavenly Destiny stepped forward, he was already paralyzed on the ground weakly, and Heavenly Destiny smiled, "The time of the medicinal effect is really accurate, Master Li wronged you to come with me." ”

After the Mandate of Heaven captured Li Sheng, news soon came to Li Zhengzong, "Master, master......"

Li Zhengzong was thinking about Xiao Wanyao in the study, and a small guy outside stumbled in, "What's so flustered." The sky won't be able to hit you people when it falls. Angry, he threw the book in his hand on the table.

The little guy knelt on the ground, "The old man is not good, the young master has been arrested." ”

Li Zhengzong was about to sit down, and when he heard this, he immediately panicked, "Sheng'er was arrested?" When was this? Who took it? ”

"The slave doesn't know who the other party is, but he is skilled, and he said that he will let the master go to the City God Temple outside the city to redeem people, and if he doesn't arrive within two hours, he will wait to collect the body of the young master."

As soon as the little servant finished speaking, Li Zhengzong had already rushed out, and immediately asked people to prepare carriages and horses, and rushed to the City God Temple outside the city with a few attendants, and before leaving, he specially sent someone to inform Tang Mingxuan, he expected that this matter must be related to him.

However, when he arrived at the City God Temple, when he saw the scene in front of him, the whole person was stunned, Tang Mingxuan was covered in blood, lying in the hall of the City God Temple, and the corpses of several guards were lying horizontally around, and the surroundings were messy.

Li Zhengzong was stunned for a moment, shouted that it was not good, and turned around to leave, but was stopped at the door by Ye Bing, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, with his troops, "Lord Li, what are you going to do in such a hurry?" ”

Li Zhengzong looked at the hundreds of Praetorian Guards behind Ye Bing, this retreat was soft, and he sat straight on the ground, but he didn't expect that his reputation in the end was calculated by a little girl. R1154
