Chapter 204: Stealing into the Palace

The man shook his head and blocked what he was about to say: "Master Hou can remember my words today, it's not too early at this time, so I'll leave first." ”

Duanmu Jun still didn't say a word in the end, and watched him leave blankly.

After a long time, an inexplicable emotion appeared on his face.

For three days in a row, Duanmu Qing and the three of them were not idle, investigating Aunt Qin's affairs in an orderly manner.

"I estimate that Your Majesty should start a trial of this matter in the next two days, and we must be fully prepared."

Lin Yuyan stared at the information in his hand.

However, Han Lingyan fell into deep thought and did not answer his words.

Duanmu Qing vaguely guessed his thoughts in his heart.

Because this matter is not trivial, it is related to the assassination of the emperor.

The emperor could directly order the Yongding Marquis Mansion to be executed, and there was no need to go through the trial at all.

Murdering the emperor was originally a crime of punishing the nine clans, and for a long time, no matter which country, dynasty, or generation, as a king, he would rather kill the wrong person than let go of this matter.

The reason why he didn't do it immediately was just from the pressure inside and outside the court, as well as the emperor's original trust in the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

If the emperor suddenly ordered the beheading, no one could stop it.

And the blocking in this case will actually be counterproductive.

Once the emperor dealt with the harm caused by the order, the Yongding Marquis Mansion would be in danger.

What Han Lingxi is thinking about now is how to find an opportunity to bring this matter to the fore under such a possibility.

"Jun Hao, Qing'er!"

At this moment, suddenly a person walked in without any announcement.

When they saw the person who came, both of them were a little surprised, it turned out to be Zhao Yuhong.

You must know that at this time, the civil and military officials dared to intercede for the Yongding Marquis Mansion, but Zhao Yuhong and Zhao Yufeng absolutely did not dare.

Because if they are involved, it is very likely to be related to the crime of coveting the throne.

Therefore, these days, the two have also handled it very skillfully, and with the ministers expressing their positions together, they do not necessarily care beyond the ordinary at all.

Han Lingxi is the son-in-law of the Marquis of Yongding, which is something that everyone knows.

So invisibly, Hanfu has also become the object of attention of many people.

And he came at this time......

"Why are you here?" Although Duanmu Qing asked lightly, he was still moved in his heart after all.

"Listen to what my mother said, I don't know what Concubine Yi said in my father's ear yesterday, but this morning my father was angry when he heard the word Duanmu."

Zhao Yuhong obviously rushed over when he heard the news, completely ignoring Duanmu Qing's words, and went directly to the three people.

These words surprised all three of them.

If the emperor was more dissatisfied with the Yongding Marquis Mansion, then even if they collected sufficient evidence, it would be too late.

Duanmu Qing's brows twisted: "No, I'm going to see Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Yuhong hurriedly stopped her, shook his head and said, "You can't go at this time!" ”

Seeing her surprised eyes, he sighed: "Early in the morning, my father issued an order, and he will not see anyone related to the Yongding Marquis Mansion, and if he breaks in, he will be killed." ”

Hearing this, it was clear that I was really angry.

"Jun Hao, what do you see?" Lin Yuyan was also extremely nervous in his heart.

Han Lingyan looked at Zhao Yuhong: "Nine Emperor Princes, can you do me a favor?" ”

Although for Duanmu Qing's affairs, Han Lingxi is his opponent.

However, in private, in fact, they also have some friendship, not to mention, after the last incident with Concubine De, he still owes Han Lingyan a favor after all.

"If there's anything, just ask."

"Take us into the palace!"

This surprised everyone else.

Han Lingyan was able to enter and leave the palace freely, this was something that everyone knew, why did he propose to let Zhao Yuhong take him?

But among the people present, which one is really stupid? Doesn't this sentence mean that you want to sneak into the palace?

Zhao Yuhong didn't ask anything, and nodded directly: "Okay!" ”

Pretending to be Zhao Yuhong's entourage, they did not enter the palace immediately, but stayed in his mansion for most of the day before going to the palace.

Knowing that it was the carriage of the Nine Emperor Princes, naturally no one would come forward to stop and ask.

So, soon, several people arrived at the inner palace.

Han Lingxi and Duanmu Qing changed into the clothes they had prepared in advance, and jumped out of the carriage while they were unprepared.

And the place where they came was not the emperor's Qianqing Palace, but Yonghe Palace.

After spending a night in the trees of the Imperial Garden, Han Lingyan took Duanmu Qing straight to Yonghe Palace.

At this time, the sun has not yet risen, and the whole palace seems to be somewhat peaceful.

In Yonghe Palace, the palace people are busy with each other.

And the master of this palace is dressing under the service of two palace maids, while she herself closes her eyes to recuperate.

Sneaking into the palace courtyard, Han Lingyan nodded at Duanmu Qing.

As soon as they arrived, they discovered the anomaly of Yonghe Palace, because in the shadows, it seemed that there were many people protecting this place.

But fortunately, before leaving the house, Duanmu Qing developed many special drugs.

Otherwise, no matter how strong Han Lingxi's martial arts are, one person can't handle so many people quietly.

A little under his feet, Han Ling slipped into the house like a shadow with Duanmu Qing in his arms.

With a wave of the handkerchief in her hand, the palace maid who was pinching Duanmu Zhu's shoulder suddenly collapsed, but was just caught by Han Lingyan.

"Niangniang, how about you take a look?"

"Hmm!" Duanmu Zhu agreed softly, and then turned back suddenly.

Standing with a smile in front of him was Duanmu Qing.

And there is another man next to her - Han Lingxi!

As for her maid, she had already fallen to the ground at this time.

Appearing behind him so quietly, how could Duanmu Zhu not be afraid, and his face immediately turned white with fright.

It's not that she's smart enough to know that it's useless to speak up at this point, it's that she's so scared that she forgets to say it.

"I haven't been here for a long time, and I didn't expect it to change so much."

Duanmuqing said as he looked at the furnishings in the room.

This is indeed true, at this time, Duanmu Zhu's palace and when she was still Concubine Yi, it really changed too much.

"You...... You ......"

There was still fear in his heart, Duanmu Zhu felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, but he couldn't say a word completely, let alone shout loudly.

"Niangniang is so happy, the people of the Yongding Marquis Mansion are still locked up in the prison! Niangniang is here with a high bed and soft pillows, which is really a clear contrast! ”

Duanmu Zhu looked at the pair of men and women in front of him, but he still didn't stabilize his emotions.

Tell her how to be calm, how many masters there are outside, and how well she cultivates martial arts, she is clear.

At this time, they came in as if no one was there, what does it mean?!

And at this moment, her life is completely in the hands of others.

"Then Niangniang, can you tell me, why do you want to do this to the Yongding Marquis Mansion? What is it that makes you turn your back on your bloodline and your family? ”

Duanmu Zhu looked at Duanmu Qing nervously, and the coldness emanating from this woman's body at this time made her extremely frightened.

Even the fear of this woman surpassed that of Han Lingyan on the side.

"I ...... I...... I ......"

I said three times in a row, but nothing came out.

Still the same as in his previous life, Duanmu Qing sighed secretly in his heart.

This woman is still so afraid of death!

"!" Accompanied by the sound of porcelain breaking, the panicked voice of a palace maid sounded.

Duanmu Qing didn't even look at the door, didn't know where to take out a short sword, and immediately put it on Duanmu Zhu's slender neck.

Only Han Lingxi looked at the palace maid without any warmth in his eyes.

Seeing the sword on the master's neck, how could the palace maid not know what was happening.

Suddenly frightened, his legs weakened, and he collapsed to the ground.

Although she didn't say anything again, her call just now still alarmed the other palace people in Yonghe Palace.

But before these people could see what was happening, they all applied the immobilization method one by one and stood still.

"You...... What are you going to do? ”

Duanmu Zhu finally found his voice and said tremblingly.

Duanmu Qing smiled, and the smile was reflected on the short sword, with a hint of cold light.

"I just want my aunt to accompany us."

"Let's go? Walk...... Where to go? ”

"You'll find out when you go." Instead of answering her question, he handed the sword in two, "Go!" ”

The sword was right around the neck, and with the slightest movement, you could feel the sharp edge stinging your skin.

Duanmu Zhu dared to act recklessly, so he had to carefully follow her instructions and go out.

Suddenly, a figure flashed, and Duanmu Qing's waist tightened, and he was taken to the side and flashed away.

The knife starts on the ground.

Looking at Duanmu Zhu again, it has completely become a statue-like and is fixed in place.

Her right hand rested on a bracelet in her left hand.

Somewhat surprised, he looked up at the man next to him, but he looked at the wooden pole with anger.

"With your little trick, you dare to show off in front of this king, and you don't know what you can do!"

Seeing him remove the bracelet from Duanmu Zhu's hand, Duanmu Qingfang knew that it was actually an extremely delicate hidden device.

Looking at Duanmu Qing holding the bracelet and looking at it over and over again, Han Ling laughed and said, "If you like it, I'll ask someone to make you a better one." ”

The two of them left with Duanmu Zhu's front foot, and Concubine De hurried over with the palace guards on her back foot.

"Early in the morning, I heard someone say that there seems to be a suspicious person outside the Yonghe Palace, you have to be careful, this is related to the safety of the concubine."

Concubine De's steps were extremely fast, and she could see that she was in a hurry.

Although the most favored concubine in the palace at this time was Concubine Yi, as the only concubine with a high rank, the Praetorian Guards did not dare to slack off.

Hearing her say this, who will drag it out for half a minute.

Who knew that after searching for a long time, more than a dozen people were arrested.

But these people are obviously masters of martial arts, but at this time, they were pointed at the acupoints and couldn't move.

Concubine De did not wait for the forbidden army to enter the palace to search, but only said that the stakes were important at this time, and it was advisable to inform His Majesty as soon as possible.

And Concubine Yi has already gone to see His Majesty, and there is nothing to do in Yonghe Palace.

In the Qianqing Palace, Taifu Wen walked out of the position and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the ghosts and monsters in Shiji Town and other places have completely disappeared at this time.

Although the exact cause has not yet been found, fortunately the people were not disturbed.

It's just that at present, the people are still very concerned about the disposal of the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

I wonder what His Majesty's plans are for this case, or do you think that it needs to be investigated in depth? ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers immediately whispered.

After all, the Yongding Marquis Mansion is a meritorious family, and if this matter is involved, it may affect a certain extent.

However, the emperor seems to have always been a little taboo about this matter, so no one in the court has dared to discuss this issue directly.

At this moment, Mrs. Wen made her words clear, and also opened an opening for others.
