"By the way, Miss Lu, you came to me this time, but what happened in the palace?"

Lu Mansheng glanced at Meng Lingdong, in fact, until now, she hadn't decided whether to tell him these things or not.

"Brother Meng, you tell me the truth, in addition to achieving friendship between the two countries and consolidating diplomatic relations, does the envoy of Dayao have other purposes in order to envoy Dayang this time?"

"Why did Miss Lu ask me?" Meng Lingdong was not surprised by the question itself, he was only puzzled why Lu Mansheng asked him, could it be that he would believe it when he said Miss Lu?

"Among these people, I believe that only Brother Meng is the one I believe."

"......" Meng Lingdong was stunned, and after a while, he said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, he ......"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't help himself, he won't say many things, and even if he does, it may not be the truth."

"Miss Lu, I can only say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the heart to use the power of Da Yang to develop Da Yao's economy, and the last thing he wants is for Emperor Da Yang to have an accident."

"The assassination of Emperor Dayang really has nothing to do with the Dayao Mission?"

"Miss Lu doesn't believe us?"

"No, it's not that I don't believe it, I just want to confirm it again." Even if this matter has nothing to do with the Dayao Mission, the purpose of their coming is by no means simple, and Lu Mansheng doesn't know whether to believe them or not. But there are some things that must be investigated clearly with the help of the power of Da Yao's envoy.

Only then can they get out of the palace as soon as possible.

"Emperor Dayang is already fine, but I suspect that this matter is masterminded by himself......"

"What?! Are you saying that Emperor Dayang intended to frame Dayao and cause disputes between the two countries? Why do you want to do this, our Dayao is here with a friendly goal? ”

"Brother Meng, don't worry, Emperor Dayang may not be aiming at you, if I guessed correctly, they are aiming at Mingyue Fort and the County Mansion."

Meng Lingdong slowly calmed down, "Are you saying that Emperor Dayang wants to use this assassination to point the finger at the military's county mansion." But I don't understand, how can the emperor who was not assassinated by the fake Princess Yuling be involved in the county mansion and Mingyue Castle? ”

"I only told Brother Meng about this, and I hope that Brother Meng will not tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince under any circumstances. Although I knew it would be difficult for Brother Meng, I had no better choice. ”

"Miss Lu still refuses to believe His Royal Highness the Prince?" If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew Miss Lu's true thoughts, he would definitely feel very uncomfortable.

But he understands Miss Lu, on one side is Mingyue Fort and the County Mansion, and on the other side is the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince, she must ensure the safety over there, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really has any thoughts, it will only trap the County Mansion and Mingyue Fort in a predicament.

It was precisely because of this that Meng Lingdong's heart could not be calm.

"Miss Lu, how can Ling Dong be so trusted—"

"I said a long time ago, I believe in Brother Meng. Brother Meng has saved my life several times before, and he is also a frank and upright man. You will not do something unrighteous for the sake of profit. "Meng Lingdong is a good man with affection and righteousness, and Lu Mansheng will not have any doubts about this.

"What does that girl need Ling Dong to do?"

"Didn't you ask me how the emperor could implicate the assassination in the county mansion, just because the poison used by Princess Yuling was the secret medicine prepared by the third lady herself. Except for her, there is no second person in the world who has this medicine. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Meng Lingdong gradually frowned, "No, if this medicine is unique to Divine Doctor Wen, then how did the fake Yuling Princess get it?" If our guess is true, the person pretending to be Princess Yuling is Princess Xining. So how did Princess Xining, who had never taken a step out of Da Yao, get the secret medicine specially made by Doctor Wen......"

These things are just so strange.

"Not only that, according to Miss Wen San, she has not finished refining this medicine, because the antidote is too complicated, and because there are important things delayed during that time, she was sealed in the main altar of the Divine Palace. That place, except for the four Dharma Protector Elders and the Twenty-Eight Star Envoys, no one could easily set foot in that place. How did the person who assassinated the emperor get this medicine called 'Red Kite', and did she have any internal involvement with the Shenming Palace? Perhaps by clarifying this question, we can find out the true identity of the main messenger behind the scenes. ”

"Ling Dong understands, Miss Lu came here in the hope that I can find out where Princess Xining has been and what she has done over the years since she disappeared? Before, everyone in the palace said that she was dead, but now she is alive and well, and there are still these turmoil. It can be seen that she has not been idle all these years, and has been secretly planning this matter behind her back. As long as I figure out what she has been through all these years, I can find out the truth behind the whole thing. ”

"That's right, and the clue is the bottle of red beauty of the third lady." Lu Mansheng has been thinking about this question for a long time, if this matter is really related to Emperor Dayang, then the relationship between Princess Xining and Emperor Dayang must be unusual.

It's just that if that's the case, there's one thing I can't figure out. Emperor Dayang is the king of a country, why did he cooperate with this little-known princess of a neighboring country?

It's not just ridiculous, it's simply unreasonable. But apart from this, Lu Mansheng really couldn't find any other explanation.

"It seems that Miss Lu didn't tell the third lady about Princess Xining." Not a question, but an affirmation. Miss Lu chose to let him do this instead of Mingyue Fort being in charge of the investigation, because Mingyue Fort didn't know the true identity of the assassin.

"Yes, I don't know how to say it to Miss Three. Because Brother Meng has instructed me to tell no one about these things except myself. "She can't call the shots." I feel sorry that Miss San didn't hide anything from me, but I didn't tell her about it. ”

And now, in order to find out the truth, she also told Brother Meng about the red kite. I don't know if the third lady will blame her after she finds out.

"Thank you Miss Lu for everything you have done for His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be very moved when he knows about it."

Lu Mansheng smiled bitterly, she didn't do all this to move Gong Xun.

"I'm sorry, Miss Lu, Ling Dong said the wrong thing. Miss Lu is willing to help us because of righteousness, Ling Dong understands. ”

"It's not because of righteousness that I don't have such noble feelings. I'm just doing what I think I should do. ”

She couldn't watch Gong Xun and them in prison, even if she didn't want to have too much to do with him. But if you don't want to, you don't want to, and you can't deceive your heart.

“……”

"Then the next thing will be handed over to Brother Meng, the officers and soldiers are still searching for the whole city, Brother Meng must be careful when he acts."

"Don't worry, Miss Lu, Ling Dong will." Now that he has finally found a breakthrough in this case, he will not give up. We will definitely find clues as soon as possible to prove the innocence of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. "But Miss Lu, Ling Dong has something to understand, even if we find evidence, after all, this matter is related to Emperor Yang, how to persuade him to release him?"

"This Brother Meng doesn't need to worry, naturally someone will negotiate with Emperor Dayang. And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, when the time comes, Emperor Dayang has no reason to detain him anymore. But all this is speculation, and we must come up with conclusive evidence in order for Emperor Dayang to release him willingly. And it's best not to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know about this matter, if he does, I'm afraid this matter will be even more difficult to clean up. Of course, after the matter is over, Brother Meng wants to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that Mansheng will not stop him. ”

Lu Mansheng said everything he should have said, got up and said goodbye to Meng Lingdong.

Meng Lingdong sent Lu Mansheng to the door, and Lu Mansheng let him go back. In broad daylight, the auspicious old store is open for business, and if someone bumps into it, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no complications.

When Lu Mansheng was about to leave, Meng Lingdong suddenly called out to her.

"Miss Road—"

Lu Mansheng heard the shout, turned his head, and looked at Meng Lingdong, "Is there anything else with Brother Meng?" ”

“…… Take care. ”

Lu Mansheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "Brother Meng too, this matter is very dangerous, safety is paramount." ”

"Hmm."

Meng Lingdong thought to himself, he must protect himself and come back safely. Because he still wants to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Lu again.

After Lu Mansheng went to see Meng Lingdong, although a matter was closed and the case had new clues, he began to feel uneasy in his heart.

Is she too impulsive?

The master behind the scenes can infiltrate the main altar of the Shenming Palace, and she can also enter and leave the welcome service at will, and take away the real feather spirit, which shows that she is very strong. Now that Brother Meng is in charge of investigating this matter, if he accidentally encounters her, will it bring danger to Brother Meng?

She only wanted to grasp this clue and clear the charge of Da Yao's assassination, but she didn't delve into the danger that this incident brought to Brother Meng himself. Although Brother Meng's martial arts are very high and he is very cautious in doing things, even if he doesn't trace the clues, it shouldn't be difficult to evacuate safely, Lu Mansheng still can't completely put his mind at ease.

At this time, she thought of the third young lady, and then shook her head again. She has troubled the third lady enough, not to mention that now that there are accidents in the county mansion Mingyue Castle one after another, the third lady herself is anxious about the affairs in the palace, and she really can't let her worry about this matter anymore. Moreover, Lu Mansheng didn't know how to explain Brother Meng's matter to her.

When Lu Mansheng was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, she suddenly thought of someone.

"Yan'er, do you remember what Master said when he rescued a strange Jianghu man three and a half months ago?"

"Three and a half months ago, I don't remember~" Yan'er shook her little head.

"It's just that there is a knife mark in the corner of the eye, and the eyes are cold, and you almost scared that person to cry when you saw it?"

"Oh, Master was talking about that cold-blooded black-faced guest! Yan'er remembered that his eyes were so fierce and cold, but he only relied on his murderous aura to shock the few people behind him who were chasing him to death, and his martial arts were really high. ”

"Then do you remember that he left a piece of jade pendant before leaving, and said a place?"

"Jade Pendant...... Jade pendant: I remember, I put it in the same box for my master. As for what to say, I want to think about it......" Yan'er knocked her little head hard, and she didn't come up with it after thinking about it for a long time.

Lu Mansheng asked her to get the jade pendant first, and thought slowly about the location.

"Master, what are you doing with that black-faced man, that person is fierce, it's better not to see him if there's nothing to do, it's too dangerous."

"There's something I want him to help with." Although the man didn't say what he did, Lu Mansheng guessed that the man was a killer from the man's blood and murderous aura. Although his eyes were cold and ruthless, when he was unconscious, he still held a plum hairpin, and he thought he was also an infatuated lover.

Thinking of the plum blossom hairpin, Lu Mansheng thought of the plum blossom embroidered handkerchief on Brother Meng's bed. Different people, but the same affection.

Lu Mansheng believed that such a person would value commitment, and after she saved his life, that person had said that he was willing to help her do one thing, anything. At that time, Lu Mansheng didn't take this sentence to heart, but now, she really has something to ask for.

Lu Mansheng is a person who believes in intuition and does things very well and thoughtfully. Whether her instincts were true or not, she couldn't let Brother Meng take the risk alone. This is Da Yang, he is still guilty of sin, and it is too dangerous for him to do this alone.

At the very least, there must be someone who is the eyes behind Brother Meng. Keep an eye on him and don't let anyone else plot against him.

"Oh, help, that Yan'er needs to think about it. When Master thought of him at this time, he must have something important to ask him to help with. ”

"You ghost, are you starting to guess Master's business?"

"Of course, Yan'er is the smartest...... That's right! Master, I remember, that person once said: The sunset is red, the moon rises, the rain in the east, the water of the sacred lake, and he lives in the Banshui Shrine! He said that the place was beautiful, and in autumn, the autumn leaves on the mountain were like the most beautiful sunset—"

"Hansui Shrine...... Why haven't I heard of this place before? ”

"Haven't you heard of it, Master? What about Divine Doctor Wen, she is the sect master of the Shenming Palace, and she must know about the large and small gangs on the rivers and lakes. ”

"Hansui Shrine...... Shinmeigu ...... The sunset is red, the half moon rises, and the bright characters are split into the sun and the moon, the sunset and the half moon...... Could that person be from the Divine Palace? Lu Mansheng was shocked, how could this be possible, something happened to the people of the Divine Palace, why didn't they go to Miss Wen San? That's their suzerain, and if his subordinates are in trouble, it is impossible for the suzerain not to save them.

But he never mentioned the words of the Shenmei Palace from before to after, and even if he said the location, it was a vague statement. Or is he thinking too much, that person is really in the Banshui Shrine?

"Master, Master, what do you think, you're all distracted?" Yan'er's little hand shook in front of Lu Mansheng's eyes, calling her thoughts back.

The sunset is red, the half moon rises, the rain in the east, and the water of the sacred lake ...... Is there really some kind of connection between the Half Moon Shrine and the Shinmei Palace?

"No matter what, I'm going to see this guy first."

"Master, don't worry about where the Banshui Divine Palace is, you forgot, that person left a signal flare before. As long as you light the flare on the night of the full moon, that person will see it. ”

On the night of the full moon, why must he see it on the night of the full moon?

Could it be that on the night of the full moon, he will definitely appear in Linyang City, and he must be somewhere nearby? (To be continued.) )
