Murong narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was considering what kind of emotion she was in this eagerness to protect her short-term performance, and only then did he smile faintly, "Then it seems that you are going to save him." Need manpower? ”

Xiao He's expression was suddenly relieved, she knew that she would never be able to take people away from the prison of the Criminal Department alone, if she could get Murong's help, it would be a good thing. No matter what Xiao Shi's purpose was to kill, she couldn't let him go. But she also has a plan in her heart, if he can't give a reasonable explanation, the big deal is to break up in two and never be strangers.

"Will you help me save someone?" Xiao He's eyes rose with anticipation.

Murong's voice was like water, "I can help you, but I can only be responsible for things outside the city, when to do it, how to do it, it's all your business." I will do my best to cooperate, but I can't guarantee that it will work out in the end. Before he could do this, he had already left the relationship so clean, Xiao He raised his eyebrows, "This can also be called help?" It's called the wind! ”

Murong laughed out loud and pointed at her, "Do you Lord Xiao still think that it will be easy to send someone out of the imperial capital without a trace, let alone a criminal in the imperial court?" Xiao He lowered his head and muttered for a moment, this is to hand over all the back roads to him, if he is discovered at that time, he retreats from the battle, or hands over people again, it will not be in vain.

You can't expect much from others in anything. This is Xiao He's experience of drifting alone over the years.

Since you want to save people, you can't do it without a careful plan. Although this Murong said that he was helping, he was just holding his sleeves and waiting outside the city gate to respond, and it seemed that he had to rely on himself to plan again.

"Okay, I've made a plan and I'm looking for you." Xiao He said.

"Don't be so troublesome, I won't necessarily stay here for a long time these days, I'll send someone to send two carrier pigeons to your house in a while, and use them to contact you if you have something." Murong did have a group of capable people under his hands, and he could even go out with all kinds of complete tools, which really made Xiao He hard to imagine what kind of person he was.

"Thank you for your kindness." Xiao He looked at him.

Murong's gaze hurriedly swept over her face and turned away, "Don't worry, there will be a chance for you to repay you." ”

Xiao He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he may not know his true identity, but he is definitely a person who will not suffer.

In the Purple City, in the imperial study, Mu Churan waited for the commander of the Wuyi Guard to come and report back.

"Your Majesty, I found this account book in Wang Siyi's house." The Commander of the Wuyi Guard respectfully presented the account book.

This Wang Siyi has been a secretary for a long time, and there is almost nothing wrong with him, if it weren't for this accident, no one would have discovered his secret. In recent years, under his instructions, he traded with local businessmen, sold official positions at a clear price, and cheated in the imperial examination township examination.

The piles and piles were enough to make him unsure. At the beginning, Qi Zhengmin, the servant of the ministry, seemed to have discovered something, but when he was collecting evidence, he ordered Wanhualou to fall. But it's also a coincidence, he bought a murderer to get rid of the threat for himself, and half a year later, he was also bought to be killed, all of which were involved in Qinglongtang.

"Now the most suspected people are these two people, one is a wealthy businessman in Huizhou, Feng, who spent 50,000 taels to Wang Siyi in March this year to buy the post of Huizhou Taishou, but did not fulfill it afterwards, and the other person is Liao Yuanren, he was originally the next candidate for the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and there are also some transactions, which are not clearly recorded in the account books, but there is a record of this person giving heavy gifts in the Wang family's treasury gift list."

After Mu Churan heard the truth, he was furious, and slapped his palm on the table, shaking the tea bowl to the ground and shattering it into a few pieces of rubble.

"It's really hateful to use the power I gave him to elect officials and promote meritocracy as a tool to enrich his own pockets, and it's not a pity to die!"

Since the real murderer is like this, it is not very meaningful to track it down, but he remembered that the assassin of the Qinglong Hall had some relationship with him, so he asked the commander, "What did the assassin in the prison of the Criminal Department have tried?" Didn't Xiao He go to see what the results were? ”

The Grand Commander hesitated a little on this matter, and hesitated, "Lord Xiao has indeed been to the prison of the Criminal Department, but ......"

"What can't you say?" Mu Churan's voice was still full of residual anger, so that the commander who had just stood up straight hurriedly lowered his head and pleaded: "If the minister is honest, please don't be angry." ”

Mu Churan glared at him, a little suspicious, "Is there still an inside story?" But it doesn't hurt for you, I won't blame you. ”

The commander told Mu Churan everything he saw and heard after secretly following Xiao He to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Xiao He had never been to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, so he naturally did not know that the second underground cell actually had an organ, and there was a half-layer mezzanine between the first floor of the basement for the purpose of observing the suspects.

Although the jailer did not know the situation in the iron cage, the Grand Commander could see and hear it clearly in the compartment next to him.

"You just said that she personally fed him medicine by mouth?" Mu Churan's face was extremely ugly.

The Grand Commander replied, "Exactly." He secretly glanced at the emperor's expression, if he was angry just now, now he was full of murderous energy, and the whole person seemed to be surrounded by invisible flames.

Mu Churan was surprised that Xiao He actually knew this assassin, and he didn't care what kind of agreement she had with the assassin, but they had a very shallow relationship, which made him very annoyed. But Xiao He saved himself twice from this assassin that day, what is their relationship?

This question gnawed at his heart like thousands of poisonous ants.

She actually carried herself behind her back, so ambiguous with other men! is still a man who wants to kill himself three times and twice.

Mu Churan felt that his anger could only be calmed with blood, and commanded in a cold voice: "Draft, I will execute that assassin immediately!" Let the criminal department not have to interrogate again, kill him immediately! ”

Although the Grand Commander was shocked, he could only respond, but he heard Mu Churan suddenly change his words, "No! Don't do it right away, do it secretly on Halloween! There is no need to make a public announcement, let the people of the criminal department do it quietly! ”

After he finished speaking, his heart was not more comfortable, but even more infinitely stunned.

Why, why an assassin? What's so special about this assassin, Xiao He, Mo Yu, why would you do everything to protect him? Mu Churan asked in his heart, and the sourness gradually swelled.

Do you want him to assassinate me again? Do you really want my life?

He wanted to ask her in person.

At night, when Mu Churan appeared at the door of the prison of the Criminal Department, the subordinates were stunned, if they hadn't seen Gonggong Liu personally carrying the palace lamp, they thought they were dazzled, and quickly knelt down, greeted the holy driver, and said in their hearts: "How could the emperor come to this prison in person, if he didn't see Gonggong Liu, our little life would not be guaranteed."

Mu Churan instructed lightly: "I want to go and see the person who assassinated in the Jiudan Palace." Lead the way! ”

The jailer guards on duty at night immediately took the key and took Mu Churan down to the dungeon.

When Mu Churan walked into the iron cage, he saw that the Ten Hall Yama was locked and kneeling there, covered in scars, blood stains mixed with stains, and the clothes on his body were almost unrecognizable. It was such a humble and dirty person who could be favored by Xiao He and let her take the initiative...... He really didn't want to think about it.

"What is your relationship with Xiao He?" Mu Churan asked directly straight to the point.

The Ten Halls Yama slowly raised his head, looked at Mu Churan, thought about his question, and suddenly smiled, looking at him with a quiet smile in the attitude of a victor.

This expression appeared on his face, which made Mu Churan almost crazy. He leaned down and grabbed the collar of the Ten Palaces Yama, "She's mine!" Stay away from her! Don't even think about it! ”

Although this threat was meaningless, Mu Churan couldn't help himself, and his thoughts and actions seemed to be out of control.

He obviously saw some emotions in her eyes that made him linger, and she obviously had his own in her eyes. In private, her smile in front of him is still vivid. She is his Moyu, and she belongs to him alone.

And the dying prisoner in front of him has her hugs, her tears.

Like a sharp blade, Shengsheng cut Mu Churan's heart in half, letting the blood gurgle and flow, unable to accuse him of unwillingness.

"Mu Churan, you are really ridiculous." When the Ten Palaces Yama spoke, the first thing he said was to tease him.

Mu Churan was stunned, let go of his hand, and glared at him like looking at a monster.

"Do you think you love her? You just want to possess her, and if you can't ask for it, you will be angry and ashamed, what right do you have to say that you love her? The voice of the Ten Hall Yama was hoarse, but every word pierced people's hearts like steel needles.

"What about you? Are you qualified again? You're just a killing tool, a lackey of the Green Dragon Hall! Mu Churan responded coldly.

"I love her and can give up everything for her, even the power to love her." The Ten Palaces Yama smiled again, but this smile was a little bleak and a little helpless, "When you ordered her Xiao family to be beheaded, you were no longer qualified. ”

"That's ......" Mu Churan almost wanted to explain, but then he woke up, why did he have to explain to a prisoner, "What does the grudge between me and her have to do with you." But he still inadvertently regarded him as an equal opponent, forgetting to call himself me.

"You'll never get her, give it up." The Ten Hall Yama asserted.

"You're ridiculous! The whole world is mine, let alone a woman! Mu Churan sneered.

"It's because you have the world that you can never have her." The voice of the Ten Halls Yama was like a demonic sound from the depths of hell, which made Mu Churan stunned for a while.

Once upon a time, someone said in his ear, "From today onwards you are the Son of Heaven, and the whole world will be yours, but there is only one thing that you no longer have, and that is sincerity." "Like a curse, like a lingering nightmare, the nightmare haunted him, almost wanting to make him mad.
