Ling Ruoyuan was just a joke, but he was surprised to hear such words, and he was very moved to pull down Yinzhen's hand and said: "The emperor treats his concubines so well, but he can't pay them off in his life." ”

Yin Zhen said with a smile: "If you can't pay it off in this life, you will pay it back in the next life, just tying you to me for the rest of your life, and you will never be separated." ”

Ling Ruo didn't say anything, just quietly tightened the hand he shook with Yinzhen, causing each other's temperatures to completely merge together, indistinguishable from each other.

No matter what the Nala clan said in front of Yinzhen, no matter how deliberately their mother and son tried to curry favor, they could not replace Ling Ruo's position in Yinzhen's heart. It's not for anything, just because she is Niu Hulu Lingruo, a woman who Yinzhen is willing to protect with her life.

In the early morning of the next day, Yang Hai waited outside the noon gate, and when he saw Hongli coming out, he hurriedly greeted him and whispered a few words in his ear.

Yang Hai's words made Hongli show a hint of surprise, but he didn't say much, just nodded to indicate that he understood.

Their whispers were no coincidence, and they were seen by Hongshi, who was walking behind Hongli, and after confessing to the criminal department who was speaking, he walked quickly to Hongli's side, and said with a smile: "Fourth, that one just now was Yang Hai beside the concubine?" ”

Hongli endured the disgust in his heart and said: "The second brother is really good eyesight, yes, it is Yang Hai, I don't know what advice the second brother has?" ”

"I can't say advice, I'm just a little curious, this early in the morning, the concubine asked Yang Hai to wait for you here, it must not be a trivial matter, I don't know if I can talk to the second brother?"

Hongli Pi said with a smile: "I really let the second brother guess correctly, it is indeed a great event, he said......"

Although Hongshi knew that Hongli would not tell the truth to himself, when he heard him say this, he couldn't help but lean his ear over for a few minutes, so that Hongli's deliberately suppressed voice could be heard more truly.

Hongli said seriously: "He said that the back of your court clothes is broken a lot, and the clothes inside are exposed." ”

Hongshi's first reaction when he heard this was to turn his head and look behind him, but when he was halfway through the twist, he remembered that when Yang Hai and Hongli were talking, he was still behind, and asked Yang Hai how it was possible to see his back, it was obvious that Hongli was deliberately looking for his own happiness.

After turning his head back, he said with an unkind face: "Fourth, your joke is not funny at all. ”

"Really?" After Hongli answered indifferently, he turned over and stepped on the horse led by Xiao Zhengzi, and said with a smile: "I should go to the Ministry of Officials on an errand, and I will chat with the second brother when I am free another day." Drive! ”

After Hongli rode the horse away, Hongshi also got on the sedan chair, he didn't like to ride a horse, most of the people up and down were taking the sedan chair, when the sedan chair man lifted the sedan chair, he lifted the sedan curtain and said to Wang Zhong who followed the sedan chair: "From this moment on, the king will keep an eye on Hongli, no matter where he goes, don't relax." ”

Wang Zhong said in a low voice: "The slave has written it down, and as soon as he returns to the palace, the slave will immediately send someone to keep an eye on Prince Bao." ”

Hongshi put down the sedan curtain, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, hmph, even if Hongli didn't say it, he would find out. Concubine Xi deliberately asked Yang Hai to wait outside the noon gate, which would definitely not be a simple matter.

As soon as he returned to Dingwang's Mansion, Wang Zhong followed Hongshi's instructions and sent people to keep an eye on Hongli, no matter where he or the people around him went, someone watched carefully, and news kept coming.

On the night of the third day, an astonishing news reached Hongshi's ears, Hongli sent people to the mass graves located in various places on the outskirts of Beijing, rummaging around, it is strange to say, in addition to the corpses of the unjustly killed, there are only flocks of wild dogs and crows, I don't know what he sent people to do there.

The person who followed couldn't guess Hongli's intentions, but Hongshi understood it all of a sudden, and his originally sleepy head was suddenly sober, and he said with a gloomy face: "What else did you find?" ”

The person who replied cautiously said: "Back to the prince's words, because the people sent by Prince Bao acted quite carefully, so the servants and others did not dare to follow too closely, and they could not get more useful information. ”

After signaling him to go down, Hongshi walked back and forth in the room with his hands in his hands, his face was gloomy and faintly worried, Wang Zhong said on the side: "Master, could it be that the fourth elder brother is looking for the corpses of Ping'er and Hongying?" ”

"Nine times out of ten." Hongshi coldly spit out these four words, and then said: "No wonder Yang Haishen mysteriously attached himself to the fourth child's ear that day, it turned out to be this thing." Xi Guifei...... This woman is really not to be underestimated, and she actually guessed that this king would take this step. ”

Wang Zhong said worriedly: "Master, then what should we do now, if you really let Prince Bao find Ping'er and their corpses, it will be troublesome, Lord Tu Lichen will explain it first, if you let him run to the emperor and say, then you ...... master"

"Don't you think this king is annoying enough?" Hongshi gritted his teeth and said after scolding Wang Zhong: "If Concubine Xi wants to start this wishful thinking, she has to ask if the king agrees!" After saying this, he turned to say, "In which mass grave were they thrown in?" ”

Wang Zhong replied: "The slave asked them to throw them in the mass grave in the suburbs, and in order to avoid being discovered, the slave also deliberately asked people to bury the corpses, unless Prince Bao turned over the mass grave inch by inch, it was absolutely impossible to find it." ”

Hongshi didn't speak, walked around a few times with his hands in his hands, and said, "No, this king can't take this risk." ”

Wang Zhong's eyelids jumped, and he said, "The master means ......"

Hongshi glanced at the dark sky outside, and said coldly: "You personally took some people to the mass grave in the suburbs to dig them out, and then burned them, only in this way can you not be discovered by Hongli at all, understand?" ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to take someone to dig up the corpse in the middle of the night, Wang Zhong's whole person infiltrated, and he was unwilling from the bottom of his heart, but in front of Hongshi, where did he dare to say a "no", bowed his head and said: "The slave will do it, it's just the master, now that the city gate is closed, no one is allowed to go out of the city unless there is an order from the commander of the nine gates, do you want to wait until tomorrow?" ”

Hongshi thought about it and nodded in agreement, but before Wang Zhong retreated, Hongshi once again advised: "Be careful, don't let people find out, otherwise this king is the only one who asks." As for how many people you need, as long as you have them in this palace, you can deploy them, including the secret guards that your uncle gave to this king. ”

The next day, when the city gate was about to be closed, Wang Zhong led people out of the capital, in addition to a few strong and strong-mouthed guards, including two secret guards sent by Yingge to Hongshi, one of whom was the dark eagle who had killed a prostitute to "clear" Hongshi's grievances.

After leaving the city, Wang Zhong did not directly take people to the mass grave in the suburbs, but found a deserted temple that no one cared about for a while, and then sent a person to the mass grave to see if anyone was haunted, especially Hongli's people.
