Chapter 4: Wolf Ambition

After watching the play, Feng Yu stepped on the moonlight and went back.

Suddenly there were footsteps behind her, and her eyes lit up, and she stopped looking back.

"General Xiao?" She was a little surprised.

Xiao Yan, who was dressed in a dark robe, walked steadily, his heart couldn't help but pound, but his expression was extremely solemn, "Li Xiu has the ambition of this person's wolf son, and he is the best at making use of people's hearts, the vassal king has not come back yet, but his power is already not to be underestimated, if Li Xiu is added, the world of this Feng family may not be able to be saved." ”

When the words fell into her ears, Feng Yu was not surprised, but a little moved in her heart, "I understand what General Xiao meant." ”

She originally wanted to be a friend of the vassal king, but this palace banquet may not be a good time, as long as her father can be suspicious of the vassal king······

"General Xiao, please cooperate with me later."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's deep gaze fell on those apricot eyes, and his face was pale, "The princess just let it go." ”

As soon as the two returned to the palace banquet, they heard the emperor stroking his palms and laughing, and he was very happy, "Qiluo and General Xiao, you two came back just in time, and I just asked them to make a painting competition, you two can't be compared!" ”

"Then the minister will be ugly." Feng Yu lowered her eyes, and a fine light flashed in her eyes.

Xiao Yan stood with his hands on the side, his whole body was full of fierceness, and his eyes were dark.

The palace people presented the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Feng Yu was clear-minded, holding the pen and dipping the ink, and scolding Fang Xuan to draw it on the paper in a chic and wanton manner.

Dancing with teeth and claws, the fangs are fierce, and they are like breaking through the iron cage.

"Father, how is the tiger breaking the cage of the son? How much of my Feng family's children? Feng Yu held the painting up.

Touching the tiger, the emperor's face was solemn for a moment.

Feng Yu keenly caught it, and her eyes moved slightly.

Isn't the vassal king the tiger trying to break the cage now? The merit is high and the ambition is high, if one day it is released, the imperial power will be in jeopardy.

"Weichen has no talent for painting, so he wrote a poem to the princess's tiger breaking the cage."

If Xiao Yansheng sinks, if he is not a general who charges into battle, he must be a cold and arrogant son who is above the world.

She immediately took two steps back, "General Xiao, please." ”

But with a cup of tea, a domineering poem jumped on the page.

"There is a green dragon in the east and a white tiger in the west, and there is a lucky star in the middle. The horses are stepping on the clouds, and the cow mountain shakes the sound of corals. Good! It really deserves to be the most brave and good general in my dynasty, and it is well written! ”

"This kind of ability to write and martial arts is the blessing of my dynasty! I want to reward General Xiao well. ”

The emperor praised again and again, everyone flattered one after another, and the banquet was lively.

Xiao Yan's face was silent, with an outstanding aura, and just as he was about to thank him, a panicked and piercing voice broke through the air.

"Your Majesty, there is a dead body of a palace maid in the imperial garden!"

The moment the words fell, everyone was shocked, and the banquet quickly fell silent.

"What's going on?" The emperor's face was calm, and there was anger in his eyes.

The eunuch hurriedly knelt down, looking panicked: "Back to the emperor, the slave was just about to go to the imperial garden to watch the night, and I saw a palace maid lying unconscious on the ground, and the slave dared to probe her nose, and the palace maid was already out of breath!" ”

When the words fell, everyone looked at each other without much emotion.

"Is that so?" The emperor twisted his eyebrows and was furious, "In broad daylight, I want to see who is so bold and reckless that he dares to kill people in the palace!" ”

"Xiao Yan, you take someone to check it out immediately, and be sure to find out the murderer!" The emperor's color is very ugly.

"Wechen takes orders."

He turned around and was just about to leave when he heard Feng Yu's solemn voice, "Father, my son is willing to go with General Xiao to find out who is behind the scenes." ”

"That's right."

After receiving the order, the two of them walked towards the imperial garden at a very fast pace, followed by several guards.

Originally, the death of a palace maid was nothing in this huge Forbidden City, but when it came to this palace banquet, it was destined to be unpeaceful.

The night was hazy and cool, Feng Yu didn't expect someone to have an accident, was it because her rebirth changed the trajectory?

She couldn't think too much, and the body of the palace maid was already in sight.

Through the moonlight, Feng Yu clearly saw that the palace maid's clothes were disheveled, her nose was blue and her eyes were swollen, and there were several bloody marks on her neck, which were as terrifying as ghosts.

Such a tragic death made Fengyu's heart skip a beat, who was so cruel?

"Which palace is this palace maid from?" Her face sank like water.

When the words fell, someone immediately answered, "Princess Hui, this palace maid was originally responsible for sending Li Xiushu to the side hall to rest, but I don't know why she died tragically here." ”

Lee Seung-dong?

Feng Yu's eyes darkened suddenly.

She crouched down, her serious gaze sweeping every inch of the corpse.

Seeing the faintly red scratches on her chest, a trace of coldness flashed in Feng Yu's eyes.

Stretched out his hand to remove the palace maid's clothes, she was ravaged in many places, and her slender arm was pinched in several places, all of which were fingerprints.

Moving her gaze down to the hands, her expression tightened, and she quickly lifted her nails, and inside was a piece of rag cloth, still ochre-colored.

If she remembers correctly, Li Chengdong's guy is wearing an ochre robe today, and he is the only one wearing ochre at the banquet.

And the scratch on his chest must have been scratched by the invasion of the palace maid when she sent him back to the side hall.

is a good champion, a good Hanlin Academy, it is really hated by people!

She clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred.

A living life, but it was killed by this bastard.

Feng Yu stood up, raised her eyes to look at Xiao Yan with a calm face, and said with a suppressed anger: "General Xiao, I think I know who it is." ”

Xiao Yan looked at her, her narrow black eyes moved slightly, and she could see through what she was thinking at a glance.

The next moment, his voice was awe-inspiring, "Someone, go to the side hall and bring Li Xiuzhuo." ”

Feng Yu watched the guards go away with a long gaze, and the hatred in her eyes was full of joy, this time, she was going to put Li Chengdong, a lewd thief, to death, so that he had no power to turn over!

After half a cup of tea, Li Chengdong was escorted to the Imperial Garden.

"Let go of me, I tell you to let go of me!" His angry facial features were distorted, and he was furious.

Xiao Yan looked at him with gloomy eyes, and ordered coldly, "Loose." ”

Li Chengdong, who was free, turned his wrist and looked at him with an unkind expression, wanting to have a seizure but holding back the moment he saw Feng Yu, "What does General Xiao mean by forcibly bringing this official?" ”

Xiao Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the female corpse on the ground, his voice was cold, "Why does Li Xiushu pretend to be confused? Killing people in the palace, do you still have the law and the emperor in your eyes? ”

"General Xiao, this official is innocent, even if he complains to the emperor, he is not afraid, but General Xiao is spewing blood like this, he is ignoring the law, right?" He hooked his lips and smiled lightly, with a bit of banter in his eyes.

"Hehe······" Feng Yu smiled coldly, disgust and hatred slowly seeped out of her eyes, "Li Chengdong, you still don't admit it?" This palace maid died on the way to the side hall, and there are still broken clothes in your fingernails..." At this point, she realized that he was no longer wearing the ochre robe.
