Chapter 535: Begin the investigation

The people in the palace have always known that Murong Xing and Murong Jun's sister and brother have a good relationship, but it is not until they see it with their own eyes today that they can get a glimpse of the intimacy.

But just when everyone was sighing at the deep relationship between Murong Xing and Murong Jun's sister and brother, only Lin Yingxue, who knew Murong Jun best, knew that for Murong Jun, for Murong Xing, I am afraid that it was more just respect, and nothing else.

Did Murong Xing's extra concern seem too abrupt?

Could it be that Murong Xing is acting and wants to deliberately gain a good reputation? But that look of genuine concern didn't seem to be pretending.

Thinking about it, only Murong Xing, who is the party concerned, knows best.

"Something happened in the palace, but the emperor is fine, the eldest princess doesn't have to worry, the palace will take care of the emperor." Lin Yingxue spoke at the right time, breaking the silence in the room.

It's just that when Murong Xing heard this, he turned around abruptly as if he had heard something that he couldn't agree with, "No, the emperor must be taken care of in the palace of this princess!" ”

When something like this happened today, her soul was almost scared on the way back, how could she rest assured that Murong Jun would be taken care of elsewhere?

Murong Xing's excited reaction not only stunned the palace people in the house, but even Lin Yingxue couldn't help frowning slightly, "The eldest princess's concern for the emperor, this palace and everyone understand, it's just that people are placed in the eldest princess, after all, it is inconvenient, it is better to put it in this palace......"

"What's the inconvenience?" Before Lin Yingxue's words were finished, she was interrupted by Murong Xing's tough attitude, "This princess is the emperor's own sister, if something happens to the emperor, who can take better care of it than this princess?" ”

"In short, the matter that the emperor handed over to this princess to take care of is so decided, if anyone dares to say more, it will be against this princess in person!"

Murong Xing has talked about this, what else can others say?

Mingyue on the side quietly glanced at Lin Yingxue, and saw that although Lin Yingxue's face was still calm, her breathing became significantly heavier.

And according to her experience of following Lin Yingxue for so long, her master is deliberately suppressing her anger.

Also, Murong Jun was originally Lin Yingxue's husband, but now the eldest princess openly came out to rob people, what is this?

Mingyue sighed secretly in her heart and didn't say anything.

It should be said that in the room, no one including Lin Yingxue spokeβ€”Lin Yingxue watched in silence as Murong Xing took Murong Jun away.

"Mother?" Seeing that Murong Xing's figure had disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, but Lin Yingxue was still standing motionless in the house, Mingyue couldn't help but call Lin Yingxue with some worry.

After hearing Mingyue's voice, Lin Yingxue seemed to suddenly come back to her senses, turned her head and asked, "I saw that the eldest princess's leg seemed to be a little limp in this palace, do you know what's going on?" ”

"Slave ......"

"I heard that the eldest princess had to take the risk of rushing out of the Fadu Temple, but the carriage she was riding in was blocked by the mountain bandits, and then the eldest princess was accidentally injured in the melee."

As soon as Mingyue was about to speak, Mingzhu on the side had already rushed to answer.

"Really?" As if thinking of something bad, Lin Yingxue's brows couldn't help frowning even tighter.

Seeing Lin Yingxue's sad look, Mingyue and Mingzhu couldn't help but exchange glances, and said at the same time: "Niangniang, what's wrong, but what's wrong?" ”

Lin Yingxue didn't speak, but in her heart she thought of what Murong Xing had done before-risking her life to rush back, and refusing to let her and others get close to Murong Jun, plus she was too concerned about Murong Jun before......

If it's just a simple sibling relationship, it's a bit too much, right?

And no matter how good the relationship between sisters and brothers is, there is a difference between men and women, and there are always people who will gossip about such intimacy, isn't it...... Lin Yingxue really didn't want to think about it in that direction, but the current situation couldn't help but let her think about it too much.

Lin Yingxue rubbed her eyebrows and put this matter behind her mind for the time being, after all, there were more important things to do now.

Suddenly it began to snow heavily at night, Lin Yingxue looked at the snowfall in the courtyard, and then looked at the charred ruins in the distance, and secretly thought to herself that this was probably the most embarrassing New Year that Rong Guo had ever had.

On the eve of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there were fires in the palace, and the emperor was almost assassinated...... I'm afraid that if I say it, I will really become the laughing stock of the people.

"Niangniang, it's cold outside, let's go into the house first." Mingyue walked behind Lin Yingxue at some point and put a thick cloak on Lin Yingxue, "The affairs in this palace have their own palace people to clean up, and there are two days before the New Year, and the new year has to be happy." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Queen Mother!"

Lin Yingxue was about to say something, but at this time, a small hand pulled her skirt from behind and called her in a milky voice.

She looked down and saw A-Ning looking at her with round black eyes, innocent, Lin Yingxue saw it in her eyes, and she only felt that her heart had melted.

"Why did you wake up at this time?" Lin Yingxue bent down and hugged A-Ning, and she couldn't help but think of Murong Anlai in her heart.

Her two children, one is in the palace, the other is sleeping outside, and her whereabouts are unknown.

I didn't sleep well at night, but I managed to stay up until dawn.

When she got up early in the morning, Lin Yingxue was about to call the Praetorian Guards to come over and ask about yesterday's situation, but she didn't expect Murong Xing to move faster than her, and she had already summoned people.

Lin Yingxue thought about it, and then took the palace people and headed towards Murong Xing's bedroom.

After arriving in Murong Xing's palace, she didn't expect that Murong Xing's palace was even more lively than she imagined, not only was the Praetorian Guard commander there, but Lin Yingxin also rushed into the palace.

"The queen is here." As if he didn't want Lin Yingxue to know too much, as soon as Lin Yingxue came in, Murong Xing waved his hand and motioned for Wang Yang to retreat.

When passing by Lin Yingxue's side, Wang Yang and Lin Yingxue glanced at each other, their eyes a little contemptuous.

Lin Yingxue frowned imperceptibly, didn't speak, and just found a place to sit down

。

"Is there anything wrong with the queen coming?" Murong Xing's tone was very cold.

It seems that after taking charge of the power in the palace, the people in front of him have disdained to maintain a superficial harmonious relationship with her.

"There was such a big incident in the palace yesterday, and the palace naturally wanted to come over and discuss with the eldest princess, how to deal with it......" Lin Yingxue said this, habitually raising her hand to serve the teacup.

But when she turned her head, her hand was empty, nothing.

Mingyue and Mingzhu, who were standing not far behind Lin Yingxue, saw this, and the two couldn't help frowning at the same time, and then Mingzhu quietly retreated.

It seems that Mingzhu should be planning to make tea for Lin Yingxue by himself...... Lin Yingxin also brought Yang Zhong with him when he entered the palace today, but Yang Zhong was relatively low-key today, and he had been standing behind Lin Yingxin without saying a word, so even Lin Yingxue didn't notice him for a while.

After watching Mingzhu go out, he rolled his eyes and quietly retreated.

And Lin Yingxue naturally didn't notice this small detail, she withdrew her hand a little embarrassed, and after glancing at Murong Xing, who was calm and relaxed, she curled the corners of her lips and smiled sarcastically: "It seems that the eldest princess is planning to find out this matter alone?" ”

Hearing the slight ridicule in Lin Yingxue's tone, Murong Xing finally spoke: "There are two days before the New Year, and all the civil and military officials are resting at home, since the emperor is fine, this matter will naturally wait until the end of the New Year." ”

Murong Xing's words were clearly prevaricating Lin Yingxue, and Lin Yingxue didn't break it, but just added with a smile: "Those people are very likely to be Mongolians, and it is very likely that these people were deliberately put in by people in the palace, if the eldest princess really wants to check, she might as well follow this line to check." ”

Thinking of the two non-standard Chinese words that were talking in front of her yesterday, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but say so.

After finishing speaking, Lin Yingxue got up and left, and no one noticed that Lin Yingxin, who had been silent on the side, shook his wrist, and the tea in the cup spilled a little on the table.

"Niangniang, let's not care about the emperor's affairs?" After following Lin Yingxue out, Mingyue couldn't help but say more: "It's all for the good of the palace, for the good of the emperor, why does the eldest princess have to reject her mother like this?" ”

"Hmph, what she rejects is not the palace, but the woman the emperor likes." Lin Yingxue can now basically confirm that her thoughts are true.

"This ......" Ran Mingyue was confused.

"Go to the treasury to find some medicinal herbs and tonics, and accompany the palace to see Lord Lu in a while." The forces that can be mobilized in the palace are almost completely controlled by Murong Xing, but it is impossible for Lin Yingxue to really sit idly by and ignore this matter.

"Yes." Mingyue finally understood this sentence.

Fortunately, although Lu Ming's injury was serious, it was not life-threatening, Lin Yingxue told Lu Ming to rest well, and then left Lu Ming's residence and returned to the palace, but she guessed that with Lu Ming's temperament, she probably wouldn't listen to her.

After the "strange ......" returned to the palace, it was already close to evening, Mingyue seemed to be looking for something, and after asking a few palace maids, a puzzled look appeared on her face.

"What's wrong

? Lin Yingxue asked with some curiosity.

"It's the pearl, and the pearl is gone." Mingyue's expression was a little worried, after all, Mingzhu is not a person who does things without measure, and generally does not do anything that suddenly disappears.

As soon as Mingyue said this, Lin Yingxue remembered that she went out with Mingzhu in the morning, but Mingzhu was not with them when she left later.

Could something really be wrong?

Lin Yingxue frowned, and was about to order the other palace people to send someone out to look for someone, but at this time, a palace person with a raw face hurriedly ran in from outside the courtyard.

Lin Yingxue and Mingyue turned their heads to look at the man at the same time, only to see the man panting and said, "Oh no, I found a corpse by the lake, it seems to be the pearl girl in the mother's yard!" ”
