Chapter 380: Surrender
That day and night, Qingyun stepped on the night to the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion.
The Hou Mansion was suddenly sealed, and the people in the mansion were all in a panic, and a well-informed little guy heard that An Yuan Hou was involved in the murder of Princess Rongle, and he took advantage of many acquaintances to run away at night, and more than a dozen subordinates came out of the wall with large packages on their backs, and they were escorted back by the guarded forbidden army not long after they ran away.
This time, everyone is more and more sure that their Hou Ye has committed a big incident, and when he is forced back to the house, he looks like a mourner.
Qingyun watched coldly, and walked past everyone into the inner courtyard.
Xu was An Yuanhou who made arrangements, and the main courtyard at this time was very quiet, and there were no people who served the sprinklers.
Qingyun didn't rush in, he secretly hid his body to observe the movements around him, until he confirmed that there was no ambush around, and then he floated down and entered the study silently.
An Yuanhou sat in front of the desk, there was a steaming teapot on the desk, and when he saw Qingyun appear, he smiled and stretched out his hand: "Lord Qingyun, please take a seat." ”
Qingyun frowned: "You know me?" ”
Marquis An Yuan said unabashedly: "Following the prince's side, I have some understanding of the identity of the adult. ”
"You are the Hou Ye, you don't have to call me an adult." Qingyun stared at him expressionlessly: "Your Highness asked me to come over and listen to what you have to say." ”
He went straight to the ground so single-handedly, Marquis An Yuan naturally didn't want to beat around the bush again: "This time I asked His Highness to send someone over, it was really forced by the situation, not that the Marquis intended to embarrass His Highness, and I hope that Lord Qingyun can convey my meaning to His Royal Highness Rong Le." “
Qingyun didn't like such a vain and wronged old fritter the most, and when he heard that An Yuanhou was still pretending to be polite, his face was even more impatient: "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
Marquis An Yuan choked, met Qingyun's cold face, coughed embarrassedly and said: "After Yue'er was arrested, Benhou thought that with her jealousy of Princess Rongle, she would not confess Benhou and the prince anyway, but the fact is that not long after she was arrested, she confessed to the guilt of Benhou and Prince Cheng. She acted so abnormally, didn't His Highness sense that something was wrong? ”
Qingyun leaned on the back of the chair, and looked at the middle-aged man with a modest demeanor on the other side: "You and Prince Cheng's party, you know the traps and calculations behind it best, and you still come to ask Your Highness what you mean?" ”
"Let Qingyun-sama smile." An Yangqiao shook his head and laughed, "Don't hide it from your lord, Ben Hou originally thought so." ”
Qingyun squinted and questioned, "You mean, you don't know about Chang Yue's fake confession?" ”
"Since the disappearance of Princess Rongle, His Majesty has spent a lot of effort to find His Royal Highness's whereabouts, and then somehow found Ben Hou, who hurriedly married Yue'er in order to calm His Majesty's anger. Yue'er hated Ben Hou because of this matter, what did she want to do, how could she get Ben Hou's consent? ”
Qingyun asked in disbelief: "That missing maid Ah Lian, but someone from your mansion." ”
An Yuanhou said helplessly: "If this is not the case, Ben Hou cannot be sure of the conspiracy behind this matter. “
"The mouth grows on you, and you can say whatever you want." Qingyun raised his chin calmly: "Who knows if you say this, is it another conspiracy between Prince Cheng and you?" ”。
"Ben Hou can prove to Lord Qingyun that Ben Hou is indeed sincere." An Yuanhou seemed to have made some major decision, lowered his eyelids and was quiet for a moment, and slowly took out something from his sleeve.
