Chapter 398: Who Did It
Mo Yan didn't respond, but turned over and got on the horse before turning around, looking at Nian Bai, expressionless and condescending, but the gaze that seemed to be forbidden was a silent question to Nian Bai: Why didn't you report the matter of Shangling City in time? Why didn't you find out the ins and outs of the rumors in the first place?
The corners of Nian Bai's forehead broke out in a cold sweat, and he naturally didn't dare to pretend to be confused anymore, and lowered his head little by little to prevent the master from seeing the corners of his slightly twitching mouth.
"Yes, my subordinates will go and find out, and I will reply to my master tomorrow."
Da, dada......
When he raised his head again, Mo Yan had already ridden away.
Nian Bai touched the non-existent ash on his nose and said to himself: "Am I not asking for trouble!" ”
"Rong Yue, where are you going?"
Early in the morning, Xiao Ye saw Rong Yue leading a horse and carrying a simple burden, standing outside the camp.
"General, I'm going to Dongzhao."
"Dongzhao?" Xiao Ye knew for a moment, "There is no news of her yet?" ”
Mu Yunyi's whereabouts were secret, but she couldn't hide from Xiao Ye's ears. It's just that Rong Yue didn't mention it, and Xiao Ye didn't take the initiative to ask, after all, Mu Yunyi is a monarch and he is a minister.
But Rong Yue said that she was going, which was "related" to Xiao Ye.
"Yes, for some reason, I've always been uneasy these days, and I think things are very strange."
"How strange, let's hear it."
"Last night, Meng Li got the news, and now it is rumored in the entire Dongzhao that our Xiqiong is going to marry Dongzhao again."
"It was about someone who learned the news of the princess's appearance in Shangling City, and then I thought of the marriage between the princess and the prince of Dongzhao."
"It's strange, it's not rumored that Xiaoyi and Taiziyi are rumored."
"Not the two of them?" Xiao Yeqi said: "That's?" ”
"It's Xiaoyi and Su Yan."
"Yunlu Suyan?" Xiao Ye raised his eyebrows, which was really unexpected by him.
"Yes."
"How could it be him?" Although Xiao Ye knew that Mu Yunyi was in Dongzhao at the moment, he didn't know that the real reason for her going this time was Su Yan.
Facing Xiao Ye's doubts, Rong Yue finally revealed Mu Yunyi's whereabouts: "Xiao Yi is indeed in the Zhenguo Mansion now. ”
"Could it be that those rumors in the market were true?" Xiao Ye remembered the rumors he had heard about Mu Yunyi and Su Yan's gradual love.
"Xiao Yi and Su Yan used to be happy with each other, but that was in the past, and now they are just close friends who cherish each other."
"Even so, how could there suddenly be rumors about the two of them......"
"What's even more strange is that a few days ago, I quickly whipped Hei Xiaoyi to send two secret letters, but there has been no response so far, if she received it in the past, there would be a response, even if it was a few words."
"In this way, it's really strange, but don't worry, Princess An and Princess are not the ones who are at the mercy of others and have no brains." Xiao Ye affirmed Mu Yunyi's methods and thoughts, otherwise with his temperament, he would not be so willing to bow down to the two sisters and brothers.
"Well, but I still have to go to Shangling City to investigate the situation in person, and I must meet Xiaoyi himself, so that I can feel at ease."
"Okay, let's go." Xiao Ye no longer has any extra words, the protection he protects when he gets along with Rong Yue is never hindrance and concern, but the greatest understanding and freedom, he believes in her ability and judgment, and likes to let go and let her achieve herself.
After Rong Yue left, Xiao Ye summoned his cronies.
"Send a few people to follow Rong Yue to Shangling City, remember, just follow from afar, send me back the news every day, never help, let alone reveal your identity, no matter what happens."
"Yes, my subordinates have orders!"
Su Yan's body healed, and he immediately resumed his upper court.
This morning, Mu Yunyi was practicing knives in the courtyard, while Su Wan was sitting at the stone table under her side and reading the Western Dome Scenery Chronicle found from her brother's study. The two move and stillness, but do not disturb each other, and are very harmonious.
It was almost noon when Su Yan came back, and when he saw this picture when he passed through the garden, he stopped and quietly watched it for a while.
Mu Yunyi turned around with a knife, and then saw the figure standing by the arch, "Su Yan, you're back!" ”
Hearing this, Su Wan put down the scroll in her hand and turned her head, "Brother! ”
"Hmm." Su Yan nodded, walked into the courtyard and approached the two.
Mu Yunyi was very keenly aware that Su Yan, who came back, seemed to be a little absent-minded.
At the same time, Su Wu also discovered that her brother was wrong, so she opened her mouth and asked, "Brother, why did you come back from the court on the first day and be so depressed?" But what happened? ”
"Is it because of the recent burning and killing of Zhuangzi in many places outside the city?"
Early this morning, Su Wu told Mu Yunyi what she was told by Shaoyang yesterday, and then looked at Su Yan's appearance after returning from the previous dynasty, Mu Yunyi already had a guess.
"Well, there was a camp that burned last night." Su Yan sighed.
"In the morning, I heard from the little woman that the burned village and the house were all the private property of the Ye Yang family." Mu Yunyi looked at Su Yan, "Today's camp ......"
Su Yan nodded, "This camp is located in Tanping Pass in the southwest, and Tanping Town is the ancestral home of the Ye Yang family, so the camp in Tanping Pass is also the town of the Ye Yang family, and that person is the cousin of Queen Ye Yang, the eldest son of the second room of the Ye Yang family." ”
Although Tanping Pass is not a border fortress, it is the only way for the southwest town to go north, and although the southwest region of Dongzhao is not as close to Shangling as the towns in the middle and northeast, it is rich in products, and the two big cities in the southwest are backed by mountains and seas, so the Tanping Pass guard as the only way is a fat difference.
"This Queen Yeyang is really a one-person queen, the whole family ascends to heaven, and the fathers, brothers, uncles and brothers in the family are all arranged in important official positions or fat differences." Mu Yunyi snorted coldly.
Su Wu said smoothly: "What else is there to ask about this, the places where the accident happened are all related to the Ye Yang family, it must be the same force, I am afraid that the opponent of the Ye Yang clan sees that the first queen is deceased, and is waiting for an opportunity to retaliate!" ”
Su Yan didn't continue to answer, his face was dull, and Mu Yunyi also saw a little doubt at the same time.
"What do you think is wrong?"
"At first, I guessed the same as my daughter, but then I always felt that something was wrong."
"Huh? Where is it strange? Su Wu asked.
"I can't say anything for a while, I always feel weird."
Mu Yunyi's heart was different, knowing this in the morning, she smoothly thought that it was Mo Yan's hand, but she also vaguely felt that something was wrong in her heart.
So later she simply began to practice swords in the courtyard, unlike others, most of the people who think about things need absolute silence or stillness, but the more Mu Yunyi is practicing martial arts, the clearer and clearer her mood becomes.
Sure enough, at the moment of turning around, there seemed to be a flash of inspiration, and she recalled the incident described by Su Wu and found the key......
"Su Yan, in addition to being burned in Tanping Pass last night, did anyone die?"
