For Bai Yulan's request, Ye Mingting almost never refused, just when Bai Yulan said this, the next day Ye Mingting sent his soldiers over, and specially asked people to investigate the origin of this matter.

When the Son of Heaven said something, there was absolutely no room for maneuver.

When Bai Yulan was resting in his palace, he heard Lu Yi start to report the previous progress.

"The messenger is said to have gotten the desired result, so he hurried away, this morning, the people sent by the emperor have already passed the letter, and the people below should have followed suit, as for the emperor also sent some other generals, presumably for the sake of Niangniang."

"Well, did the messenger say anything else?" She suddenly wrung her eyebrows and asked.

"After achieving his wish, there is nothing left, but he still expressed his hope that Niangniang can go in person, saying that Niangniang will regret not going, and this will be an opportunity to make the emperor's long-cherished wish come true and unify Kyushu."

When Bai Yulan heard this, she was a little distracted, her lips pursed down slightly, her thin lips opened lightly, and said, "Where does this start, why can the unified Kyushu be transferred in this battle?" ”

"This can be regarded as a big deal, he is still so kind to let me get such an opportunity, but I remember that my father, that psychologically, not to mention how much he wanted to destroy this Hui Dynasty completely......"

Seeing Bai Yulan's distrust, Lu Yi also understood, in fact, the Nangong family pressed Niangniang too tightly at the beginning, if a person could force it too tightly, it would be easy to have an accident.

has been urging Niangniang to give an explanation to the Nangong family, so that the unjust case of the year can be cleared, but Niangniang is just a weak woman, how can she bear this gradually heavy weight with this thin shoulder?

Luyi is naturally very puzzled, what Niangniang suspects, but there is also a certain truth, not to mention the attitude of Lord Nangong before, that is, what Niangniang did later is a little unreasonable.

"If Niangniang is really confused and doesn't believe it, you might as well find someone to investigate secretly, and you don't have to pay too much attention to it, after all, this whole thing is all from that person's side, but it's not worth Niangniang's constant anxiety."

Within a few days, the man who was locked in the dungeon died like this, and he didn't even leave a whole corpse, and hastily ordered someone to drag him to the barren mountains and throw him away.

When Bai Yulan and Lu Yi were wandering around the Imperial Garden, they saw Ling Yun hurriedly leading a few people over from here.

She called out to him, "Lingyun, what are you doing in a hurry?" ”

"Mother, Wan'an." Ling Yun saw Bai Yulan coming, and hurriedly said, "What is Niangniang doing here all of a sudden?" ”

"What are you?" Bai Yulan looked at the several guards he was carrying, who didn't seem to be ordinary people, and couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows and said: "I heard that a few days ago, the person who wanted to assassinate me was tortured to death in prison after he was caught, but I haven't heard any news about this recently, so I'm curious, what are you doing now?" ”

Bai Yulan asked Ling Yun like this, and Ling Yun was also asked, his eyes were a little flickering, but when he looked at Bai Yulan, it gradually became normal again, and it was much better, so that people didn't notice anything strange.

However, Bai Yulan still felt that something was wrong with this, recently her things have become less and less, inside and outside the palace, there is not even a person left to ask for peace, she is alone in the palace, it is so boring, except for this time, Ye Mingting can come to her in his spare time to chat a few words, why always feel like he is imprisoned.

"Niangniang, because some of the prisoners who were previously imprisoned have died one after another, so I sent people to carry these people out quickly, so as not to occupy this position."

What he said seemed to be a half-truth, but given that Ling Yun was becoming more and more secretive in his work now, she didn't want to ask more.

"Then you guys hurry up and get busy." Bai Yulan urged: "I'm an idler, but I won't interfere with your more affairs." ”

Ling Yun bowed towards Ye Mingting, and then slowly left, Bai Yulan and Lu Yi stayed, looked at each other, and hesitated a little, and said: "Recently, there seem to be more people in the private prison in this palace, but I haven't heard of any major events, who are the people locked up in this private prison?" "Food

Lu Yi listened to it on the side, and naturally she was a little puzzled, but she didn't know in her heart, if she didn't even know about the queen now, she couldn't know the current situation through any other route, it was enough to prove one thing, only Ye Mingting could make this matter seamless, and even when concealing it, she could not let others have the slightest suspicion and be difficult to detect.

"I'm afraid that the people in the organization that assassinated me this time, after finding a line, implicated all of them, and even killed so many people." Without waiting for Lu Yi to speak, Bai Yulan was the first to speak.

Lu Yi helped to pull Bai Yulan's hair to the side of his ear, and responded softly, "Niangniang's guess is not unreasonable, but the emperor probably hopes to use this method to find out all the large number of people hiding behind the back, Niangniang doesn't have to worry, the emperor's measures this time will definitely not cause any harm to Niangniang." ”

Bai Yulan listened, as if she had left a bud in her heart that was gradually sprouting and thriving, and suddenly thought that at the beginning of this matter, Ye Mingting should have hidden something from her, and she was a little hidden, I am afraid that she would have some objections to his way of doing things.

In the palace, now, only she and Ye Mingting live in the two masters, and the others are all slaves, and no one can guard against them.

Although it was cleaned very cleanly, every time I passed by the direction of that side, I could smell a very strong smell of blood, which made people frown.

"Mother." Lu Yi understood what Bai Yulan was thinking, and said in a low voice: "Recently, the smell in the palace is really a bit strong, even the slave maid feels that it is a little inappropriate, it is better to prepare a little more incense in the room, and it can also make the mother sleep a little more peacefully." ”

However, this has too much to do with incense and the like recently, which makes Bai Yulan a little panicked about this type of thing.

At every turn, someone is doing things in the incense.

"The slave will watch the process of making this spice carefully." Greenery assures.

The main reason is that she has seen Bai Yulan recently that she does have a little headache, and even woke up in the middle of the night many times, she just looked at herself, and she felt a little distressed, let alone the current scene.

Bai Yulan just politely refused, and finally agreed: "This matter, I will leave it to you, don't pretend to be a person, after all, this kind of thing, in the end, is still a little private, if someone really wants to use this to kill me, it must be easy." ”

"The slave knows." The greenery whispered.

Niangniang is now like being bitten by a snake once, and she is afraid of the well rope for ten years, and after experiencing such a thing once or twice, she feels that it is no more difficult.

Recently, she has also stolen half a day of leisure, and when she has nothing to do all day long, she is particularly idle and panicked, and later the ministers of the court, there are those who are on an errand in the palace, which also revealed the news.

The minister outside, this sent a cat up, this cat seems to have come up in the Western Regions, with a pair of round blue eyes, snow-white cat, exceptionally handsome, even after the palace people saw this cat, most of them even liked this white and blue-eyed cat.

"The newly appointed Ministry of Rites Shangshu, but quite a bit of brains, the previous Ministry of Rites Shangshu and the traitorous party colluded, this was dismissed by the emperor, this new office, how long has it been, just like a person, I don't know where to find out the news, but also know that Niangniang likes cats more, so this is sent."

Looking at the color of this cat, it can only be found in careful selection, and it takes a lot of energy, but it can be sent in such a short time, and it must have taken a lot of thought from the beginning.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi couldn't help but say a few words in his heart about the newly appointed Ministry of Rites.

It's a pity that now by Niangniang's side, there are not a few cronies who can help Niangniang stabilize her position, among these relatives, except for Bai Rong, who thinks he is a righteous brother, as the secretary of the military department, there is no one who can be an official in the court, which is not a matter in all dynasties.

"This newly appointed Ministry of Rites Shangshu, this palace is quite fond of it, it is very exciting at the beginning, and it can know how to please others, although it seems to be a little more powerful, but this style of behavior, pleasing people, plus the ability is quite enough, it is not too difficult to stabilize your position in this court."

She can see it clearly, after all, although she is not an official herself, but looking at the promotions of those people under Ye Mingting, as well as the type of employment of these people now, she can basically get a rough idea.

Ye Mingting's thinking is very advanced, he is not at the beginning, he likes people who are completely incomprehensible and upright, but likes those who are a little greedy, but can still be good at dancing with long sleeves, and make everyone who can keep their jurisdiction rich, such talents can be mixed for a longer time, and at the same time, it is also an important feature of Ye Mingting's selection of officials.
