Chapter 474: Murder
"Master Jiang, if Murong Shi comes back, you must let him enter the palace to meet the mourning family, the mourning family has important matters to talk to him!" The Queen Mother told Jiang Zhan again and again, for fear that he would forget.
"Please rest assured that the Queen Mother will definitely tell the truth." As for whether Murong Shi wants to enter the palace or not, that is his choice.
"Do you think the mourning family's request is strange?" The Queen Mother naturally saw Jiang Zhan's defense.
"Weichen doesn't dare!" In fact, when the Queen Mother saw Murong Shi for the first time, he felt that the other party's behavior was a little strange.
However, after going back, everything was normal with Murong Shi, and Jiang Zhan didn't think much about it.
He never thought that the Queen Mother would ask him everything at this time.
"The mourning family will not hurt him, you can rest assured to send a message to him, if you can't contact him, the mourning family can wait." There's nothing she can do right now.
Who called things so unlucky, she just wanted to find someone, and the other party left the capital, and the return date was uncertain.
Jiang Zhan knew that the Queen Mother must know Murong Shi's identity, but she was reluctant to tell herself.
However, he wouldn't ask much about this matter, after all, he had been friends with Murong Shi for many years, and he had never heard him mention his family.
Jiang Zhan knew that he had a master and a grandfather who had adopted him for a while, but he really didn't know anything else.
So when the Queen Mother asked him, he came back very frankly, after all, he didn't know at all.
After going back, Jiang Zhan didn't take this matter to heart, as for Murong Shi's side, he had already tried to contact him, but unfortunately there was no response.
He should be on his way at the moment, and it will be difficult to receive his letter at all.
Two days later, the news of the Queen Mother's illness suddenly came from the palace.
In fact, people will get sick when they eat whole grains, even if they are noble like the emperor and the queen mother, it is no exception.
However, there was a imperial doctor in the palace, so after Jiang Zhan heard about it, he didn't care.
On this day, when Jiang Zhan and the emperor discussed the affairs of the court together, the emperor mentioned the illness of the queen mother.
"The queen mother has been sick for a few days, and she has not improved after taking medicine, the imperial doctor said that the queen mother's heart is too depressed, but she can't come up with a way, can't you really contact Murong Shi?" The emperor was very concerned about the queen mother's condition.
"Wechen has sent him a message, but he hasn't received a reply." Jiang Zhan understood what the emperor meant, he wanted to help get Murong Shi back.
After all, Murong Shi's medical skills, the emperor knows.
At the beginning, the imperial doctor couldn't save the people, but he was able to save them.
"You will write another letter to him later, I am afraid that the queen mother's body will not be able to hold on like this." Baishan filial piety is the first, he doesn't want to lose her before he lets his mother enjoy it.
In the past, although his mother was the queen, she was injured when she gave birth to him, and the woman the emperor liked in his heart was not her at all.
The queen is rich and prosperous, but her heart has always been bitter.
In fact, part of the reason why his father made himself the crown prince was related to the fact that he was the eldest son.
However, he was more guilty of his mother.
If he hadn't connived at it back then, the queen would have been assassinated by the woman he liked.
"Wechen obeys." Jiang Zhan had no choice but to write a letter to Murong Shi again according to the emperor's wishes.
As a result, the letter written by Jiang Zhan still failed to be delivered to Murong Shi.
"Master, the letter was intercepted halfway, and we were not opponents after a while with each other, so we came back directly." They sensed the danger and evacuated immediately.
Although they failed to complete what Jiang Zhan had explained, they were willing to be punished.
"You guys go down first, don't let the news of this matter go, so as not to bring danger to Murong." Jiang Zhan didn't expect that he could be intercepted by someone just writing a letter to Murong Shi.
Could it be that Murong Shi's identity is indeed related to the royal family, and it is known?
The more Jiang Zhan thought about it, the more worried he became, and decided to send someone to find him immediately.
However, the people he sent out, a few days after leaving the capital, completely lost the news.
No matter how much he tried to contact them, it was all in vain.
"Ah Zhan, I think the people we sent out are likely to have met with accidents." Otherwise, they should have come back with a message.
"Yao'er, I want to send it over to find Murong Shi in person." In the end, he is a friend who has known him for so many years, Jiang Zhan is really worried that he is in trouble.
"Will the emperor agree?" Although Xue Yao was reluctant, he also supported his idea.
After all, Murong Shi has been helping them all along, and now that he may have an accident, if Jiang Zhan doesn't care about it, it will really be too cold-blooded, fortunately, she has a good look in her husband.
"Yes, the emperor has always hoped that Murong Shi can come back and treat the queen mother." If he is not sure, he will not tell his decision before he goes to the emperor to take leave.
"You first find a way to take leave with the emperor, and the baby and I will stay in the house and wait for you." If it was before, Xue Yao would definitely go with him to find Murong Shi.
However, now that she has a child, Xue Yao has concerns in her heart.
After all, the baby is too young and must stay in the capital, and if the husband and wife are leaving, the baby will cry.
He had to sleep next to Xue Yao every day so that he wouldn't cry.
Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao had no choice but to order someone to make a small bed and put it in their room, and when he fell asleep, they would put him on their own bed.
In fact, she thought it would be nice for the child to sleep in the same bed with them, after all, he was still so young.
However, Jiang Zhan bluntly said that it was inconvenient and refused to agree to anything.
"Big brother, don't worry about going to Brother Murong, when you are not in the mansion, I will definitely protect my sister and little nephew." Ling Haoxuan knew that he couldn't rest assured at home.
It hasn't been long since the child was full moon, and the couple hasn't been separated for a long time.
"Take care of them, and have someone send me a message if there's something!" Today's Ling Haoxuan is already a teenager who is thirteen years old.
His martial arts have made a great breakthrough, as long as someone with a heart doesn't suddenly attack, Ling Haoxuan has no problem protecting their mother and son, not to mention that there are so many secret guards in the mansion.
So after he told Ling Haoxuan a few words, he quietly entered the palace to find the emperor.
Jiang Zhan didn't want others to know about this matter for the time being, so as not to bring danger to Xue Yao's mother and son, as well as Murong Shi, who was far away.
"You said that Murong Shi might be in danger outside, so you want to find him?" The emperor glanced at him in surprise and said.
"The letters that Weichen gave him two days ago were intercepted by others, and none of them reached Murong's hands, Weichen hopes that His Majesty will allow Weichen to leave the capital." Jiang Zhan said sincerely.
"You must go?" The emperor also said that he was quite hesitant about this matter.
"Your Majesty, please." If he hadn't made up his mind, he wouldn't have come.
"That's it, since you want to go, I won't force you to stay, but you still need to deal with the affairs of the Criminal Department." The emperor also didn't know if he could come back in half a month this time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Jiang Zhan successfully got the emperor's permission, he went to the criminal department.
At this time, the officials of the Criminal Department all went home, but Jiang Zhan began to deal with the case and other things.
By the time he left the department, it was already late at night.
"Has the emperor agreed?" Xue Yao was restless while guarding the child who was already asleep, while waiting for him to come back.
"I'll go to the Criminal Department tomorrow and leave the rest of the matter to someone else to deal with, and then I'll leave at night!" He walked over and hugged Xue Yao and said, "Pay attention to your body in the future, if there is no major incident, don't leave the house easily." ”
"I won't go out and walk around at will, and you must be careful not to be targeted." Xue Yao leaned on his arms, his heart full of sorrow.
"As long as I find Murong, I will come back." Jiang Zhan looked at Xue Yao, who was crying silently, and couldn't wait to bring their mother and son with him.
The next night, Jiang Zhan got dressed and prepared to leave.
"Ah Zhan." Xue Yao insisted on getting up to see him off.
"Go back and lie down, I have discussed with the emperor, and in two days he will announce to the ministers of the court that I am out on business, and no one will guess for the time being." After Jiang Zhan said a few words, he secretly left.
It wasn't long before he left that Ling Haoxuan knew about it.
In the next few days, Xue Yao has been taking care of the children in the house.
As a result, Xue Yao didn't expect that the emperor would appear in the mansion with his henchmen and secret guards.
After all, the real person in charge of Shangshu Mansion is Jiang Zhan.
"Do you have any news of Murong Shi and Jiang Zhan?" A cold light crossed the emperor's eyes.
"Back to Your Majesty, Ah Zhan hasn't sent any news back so far." This incident also made Xue Yao more uneasy.
"I have already ordered someone to find out, Murong Shi is also from the capital, and he is also the heir of an official eunuch!" When the emperor found out about these things, he was also completely shocked.
After all, what a beautiful scenery Murong Shi's family was back then, but it ended up like this.
Xue Yao actually felt that his origin couldn't be just a country doctor.
"I have never heard Murong mention it, we only know that he grew up with his own master since he was a child, and his skills are also from his master's painstaking teaching." When she met the other party, Murong Shi had already said that Jiang Zhan was a friend.
She actually knew that Murong Shi took care of herself completely for Jiang Zhan.
"Speaking of the Murong family, it is indeed my father who made the wrong decision." The emperor hadn't seen Murong Shi's parents much, after all, when the Murong family had an accident, the emperor was still young.
Therefore, after the Queen Mother saw Murong Shi, her mood was greatly affected, but he didn't feel anything.
Murong Shi's father was an official in the court, and he has always been conscientious and abiding by his duties. And it's never a bad deal.
It's a pity that he is excellent, but he still caused a fatal disaster.
Murong Shi's family was jointly framed by some people because of a treasure, and the other party originally planned to let their family die.
However, Murong Shi, who was still young at the time, was rescued by a loyal servant in the mansion.
"Is there a treasure in Murong Shi's house, which has caused so many people to fight for each other?" Xue Yao was very curious about this.
"The husband is not guilty of his crimes, and their Murong family is because of that thing, except for Murong Shi and the subordinates who took him away, everyone else died, and even his sister and brother were not spared." The emperor sighed.
When he found out about that, he was also extremely shocked by Murong Shi's approach.
With his medical skills and abilities, in fact, if he wants to take revenge, he can do it himself.
After all, more than ten years have passed, and he can avenge his relatives, but he still chooses to be an ordinary doctor.
Jiang Zhan couldn't do this, after all, they came to the capital to give an explanation to their dead mother.
