Chapter 259: The Ullmans lurk in the imperial capital

can go down the mountain to play, and Yin Li can't ask for it.

He found Lao Ma according to the order, and Lao Ma told him that this time he went down the mountain to meet the Queen Mother in the category of executing the fatwa, and due to the secrecy of the task, he could not take the big monkey with him this time. Without the protection of the big splash monkey, the old horse told him to be careful in everything.

After going down the mountain, Yin Li went home to take a shower and change clothes.

After a while, a eunuch from the inner court came to deliver the decree.

The eunuch dressed up as a coachman, said that the queen mother had arrived, and asked him to come out of the house to meet him.

Yin Li was shocked, is the Queen Mother out of the palace? What is she doing at my house?

At that moment, he went out with the eunuch to meet him, but he saw a carriage lying at the door.

The Queen Mother lifted the curtain and beckoned to Yin Li with a smile: "Get in the car." ”

Yin Li listened to the order to get into the car, and only the Queen Mother sat in the car, she dressed as a common person, although she was wearing a plain dress, it was difficult to hide her extravagance. Yin Li asked: "Queen Mother, why did you leave the palace alone, and no one protected you?"

Empress Dowager Dong said: "What, do you think I'm weak?"

Yin Li said with a smile: "How can it, the Queen Mother's cultivation is very profound." ”

The horseshoe stepped on the stones, clattering from the inner city out of the outer city.

After a while, the carriage came to a halt, but it arrived in the northern city.

The eunuch tied the carriage to the shade of a willow tree on the bank of the river.

After Empress Dowager Dong got out of the car, she entered a restaurant by the river.

She found a box by the window and sat down, asked Xiao Er to serve wine and meat, and then beckoned Yin Li to sit down beside her, and said: "You have been in retreat for three months, you must have eaten well, drank well, today I am the east, please have a good meal." ”

Yin Li arched his hand and smiled: "Thank you Queen Mother for appreciating the meal." ”

Empress Dowager Dong said: "My mouth eats honey, it's so sweet." ”

Yin Li asked: "You announced that I would go down the mountain, do you have something to do with me?"

"It's not easy to announce you down the mountain, the mourning family has preached you for five days, and the second pope always refuses to let you go down the mountain on the grounds that you are in retreat. I don't know what he thinks, he's afraid that if you help me, people will say that he broke the rules and interfered in government affairs. There was really no way, so the mourning family had to show him the evidence of the demon clan's attack, and then he issued a fatwa and let you go down the mountain. ”

"What, has the demon clan invaded? Why hasn't there been any movement at all?"

"It's not just a demon attack. The real situation should be that someone colluded with the demon to intend to rebel, according to the secret investigation of the mourning family in the past six months, this rebel force has been lurking in Taichang for a long time, and may be waiting for an opportunity to do something in the near future. ”

Yin Li was shocked, lowered his voice and asked, "There is such a thing! Who is rebelling?"

Empress Dowager Dong shook her head: "I don't know, that's why I want you to help investigate." ”

Yin Li was puzzled: "I don't know, then where did your news come from?"

"Half a year ago, Jingzhao Mansion captured several Ulemans during a Beijing investigation. This matter is not trivial, the Ullmans belong to the demon tribe, and my Hyuga Empire has always regarded them as demons, and such demons lurk in my imperial capital, and there must be a plan. At that time, the mourning family ordered Jingzhao Mansion Yin to supervise the case and ask the reason for the torture. As a result, these Ullmans would rather die than confess. However, the words they cursed when they were tortured implicitly contained an answer. ”

"Well, a person who is too resentful often shows his feet, what are they scolding?"

They said that the Son of Heaven was not born to the first emperor, and they also scolded the mourning family for being disloyal and unjust, and that his death was approaching. Hmph, my Hyuga Empire and the demon clan don't share the sky, but a few demons don't feel worthless for the first emperor, anyone who listens to it will feel ridiculous. Then why do they want to talk about my court, the only explanation is that someone in my Hyuga Empire is conspiring with the demon clan with bad intentions. ”

"Makes sense. Did the Queen Mother find any other clues?"

"The wine and food are here, eat first, and then talk about it later. Empress Dowager Dong moved her body to facilitate the second child in the store to serve wine and food. When the wine and food were ready, she led the dishes and chopsticks, and ordered Yin Li not to be restrained, just eat and drink.

Yin Li hugged the pot and drank freely, serving a bowl of rice, not polite at all.

And Empress Dowager Dong just sat quietly with her and did not move her chopsticks.

She looked through the window at the small hill across the river, her eyes glazed out.

Yin Li asked while eating: "Queen Mother, won't you eat with me?"

Empress Dowager Dong said: "I am very happy to watch you eat." ”

Yin Li followed her gaze and looked at the other side of the river: "Hehe, you didn't look at me, you are looking at the opposite side, what is on the other side?"

Empress Dowager Dong said: "There are thieves on the other side, and they are good at lurking. ”

Yin Li said: "I know, you are talking about the dungeon." ”

Empress Dowager Dong said: "You can guess, it seems that I didn't choose you wrong." ”

......

Yin Li's fighting power was very strong, and he ate five bowls.

After cutting off food for five days in the Temple of the Fallen God, he only ate a bowl of noodles to cushion his stomach when he went home, so he asked the Queen Mother to recruit him. He is reincarnated as a starving ghost, his stomach is a bottomless pit, and it is polite to eat only five bowls. After being full of wine and food, Guanghan suddenly arrived in a car, she was not wearing an official uniform, and she was dressed like an official lady.

Entering the restaurant, Empress Dowager Dong ordered her to sit down and talk.

Guang Han received the order and moved a bench to sit on.

Empress Dowager Dong asked, "Did you hear anything?"

Guang Han said: "Zuo Tu doesn't seem to know anything. ”

Empress Dowager Dong said: "All the clues point to the Imperial Tower, how can he not know." The Ullmans stayed in Taichang, and the household registration held by them was found to be forged by the supervision of the Imperial Tower; and the magic charms were only for the use of the army, and the people were not allowed to sell them privately, but in the past year, the Imperial Mansion had purchased charms from the Gaman Empire several times, and as a result, they were shipped back to the imperial capital, and these charms were lost in the sea and could not be traced. Based on these two points alone, the Imperial Tower cannot escape suspicion. ”

Guang Han asked in a low voice: "Then ...... according to your opinion?"

Empress Dowager Dong said: "The mourning family Xuanyin went down the mountain to enable him, and the only way to send him to investigate was to avoid being hindered." ”

Yin Li was stunned for a moment, how could the Imperial Mansion be so easy to check, not to mention that they were numerous and powerful, just talking about the four shopkeepers, that was one of the best immortal masters in the Hyuga Empire, Yin Li didn't want to provoke them: "The Imperial Mansion is not a demon clan, it seems that it is not in accordance with the rules to ask me to check them, I am afraid that the national eunuch will not allow it." ”

Empress Dowager Dong said: "The Imperial Mansion is suspected of colluding with the demon clan, how can the Guozijian sit idly by." ”

Yin Li said: "But these clues are not sufficient, you had better come up with the most favorable evidence." ”

Empress Dowager Dong said: "Of course, there is evidence, such as the murder case in Dongxing Building not long ago. At first, the deceased said that he wanted to surrender, and the military department was about to send someone to Dongxing Tower to contact him, but he wanted to kill him first. The strange thing is that Xiao Er of Dongxing Building was mistakenly killed by the people of the Night Hades Hall. Hmph, after the examination of the corpse, it was found that the blood of the shop boy was as toxic as the Uermans, which showed that the shop was an Uleman. ”

Yin Liqi said: "You mean to say that the second person in the shop is from the Imperial Tower?"

Empress Dowager Dong said: "That's right, Dongxing Building is the property of Yuminglou, and the shopkeeper is naturally a person from Yuminglou." Moreover, on the night that the shopkeeper was killed, Yu Minglou also mobilized the people to ask the Night Hades Hall for their crimes, what does this mean, this shows that Yu Minglou is a thief. If these can't be counted as ironclad evidence, then the cause of the death of the shopkeeper is even more exciting. According to Jing Zhaoyin's inquiry, when the Night Hades Hall rushed into Dongxing Building that night, the murderer had already been surrounded, and it was the shopkeeper who suddenly rushed into the encirclement, and the murderer took the opportunity to escape, and the shopkeeper was killed by mistake. This is unbelievable, the murderer is about to be captured, why did the shopkeeper rush into the encirclement, the only explanation is that he wants to save the murderer. ”
