Chapter 255: Something Happened in the Palace
Dongfang You was obviously very disgusted by his tone, and his face looked very bad: "You have to know how to be grateful, if I hadn't taken advantage of the chaos to help you just now, you would have been sent back by them to torture and torture by now!" β
"So, the eldest prince brought people to our gathering place, and I still have to thank you?" The cloaked man also spoke unceremoniously, and did not have a good face because of his identity.
Dongfang You's eyes flickered, and the fist in his sleeve secretly pouted: "Do you know what the consequences of talking nonsense are?" Dongfang You stared at the cloaked man tightly, and said word by word very clearly.
The cloaked man didn't seem to notice the change in his tone, and still looked arrogant: "I call you a big prince now, but for the sake of your usefulness, who do you think you are?" However, a small Oriental family, in the eyes of our Seven Evil Palaces, is not worth mentioning at all! People like you are ...... in our Seven Evil Temples."
This cloak man himself said happily, who knows, a terrible aura is approaching him, he said one by one, and gradually aroused all the anger on Dongfang You's body, but he didn't know it yet, he didn't finish his next words, Dongfang You suddenly flashed in front of him like a bolt of lightning, his right hand was like an iron tong, and he grabbed her neck, and then lifted it up little by little, and the sudden green tendons on his arm made it impossible to see how much strength he had.
The cloaked man felt that my own life was gradually disappearing at this moment, his eyes were instantly bloodshot, his feet kept kicking, and his two hands were holding Dongfang You's hands, but there was no effect.
"You...... You ......" He didn't say a word with all his strength, but the despair in his eyes was telling the horror in his heart.
Dongfang You was so serious that he no longer concealed it: "You are just a person in the Seven Evil Palace, dog, you dare to talk to me in such a tone, now do you know what the consequences of talking nonsense are?" β
After speaking, Dongfang You's fingers slammed hard, only to hear a click, the cloak man's head tilted, and there was no longer a trace of anger, Dongfang You smiled coldly, and then he let go of his hand, and the cloak man fell to the ground softly like a rag.
Dongfang You looked at the cloaked man who had long been lifeless, and the breath in his heart gradually calmed down, and after calming down, he realized that what he had just done was too impulsive, thought for a while, and then took out a long sword, looked at the cloaked man condescendingly, and then quickly slashed his neck with the blade, and then laughed with satisfaction.
The corpse of this cloaked man was directly brought back to the mansion by Dongfang You, and Mo Yan and Lan Xin were already in the mansion, but their faces didn't look very good.
Dongfang You asked his subordinates to throw the cloaked man's body in the middle of the hall, feeling the tension, he asked suspiciously, "Lord Wang, has something happened?" β
Liu Yi came over and said: "The eldest prince, I thought that I would be able to get some unexpected gains from their mouths by serving their episodes, but I didn't expect that those people would be so cruel to themselves, and they hadn't been put in prison yet, they all committed suicide by poisoning, leaving no one alive, and our clues were broken before they started." β
"Poisoning? How so? Dongfang You looked very surprised.
"The poison has been hiding in their mouths all along, and after we catch them, they also know that nothing good will end, and it is better to die than to be tortured, and we really underestimate them." Liu Yi said with an unwilling face.
Dongfang You glanced at the cloak man he brought on the ground, and said with a look of annoyance: "Originally, I thought that killing this person would be able to deter those people, but I didn't expect that in the end, we would be in vain. β
"Hateful! They're cunning enough! Liu Yi said angrily.
"Don't stay here and be an eyesore! Lord Liu, hurry up and let someone dispose of this person, I feel upset when I look at it. Lan Xin said suddenly at this time.
"What Lan Gongzi said is, I ......"
When Liu Yi was talking, Lan Xin showed an extremely impatient look: "Oh, forget it, I'll come in person." β
After speaking, Lan Xin walked up to the man, bent down and directly dragged one of the person's feet, and under the incredible gaze of everyone, he tried his best to eat milk, and dragged the person out.
Liu Yi saw that his mouth was slanted, this little boy who looked soft and weak, he didn't expect that there would be such a staggering side, he was really unseemly.
Dongfang You's face suddenly became a little bad, and he immediately scolded his subordinates: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Don't have any eyesight? Don't hurry up and help Lan Gongzi! β
"Yes!" The two men answered and hurriedly chased after him.
Dongfang You's heart kept beating suddenly, as if he felt that something bad was about to happen.
"Lord Wang, what should we do now?" Dongfang You asked.
"The clue has been broken, then you can only take one step at a time, Dongfang Gongzi, you have to work hard during this time, always pay attention to their movements, once you find their traces, please send someone to tell me immediately." Mo Yan said.
"Don't worry, the matter of Yuncheng is my own business, and I will definitely do my best!" Dongfang You swore and said.
Returning to the Dongfang family, it was no surprise that Lan Xin and Mo Yan were talking at the same time about the dead cloak man that Dongfang You brought back today.
"Did you find anything?" Mo Yan asked.
"Dongfang You asked the two of them to come over, obviously preventing me from checking the cloaked man's injuries, but I still found a little clue, the cloaked man looked like he had his throat cut on the surface, but I found a bruise on his neck, which was obviously caused by someone pinching him hard, and there was very little bleeding on her neck, indicating that he was strangled to death and then cut his throat." Lan Xin analyzed it very seriously.
"In other words, Dongfang You's connection with the Seven Evil Palaces is real." Mo Yan said.
"It should be like this, that cloak man must have no defense against him, so Dongfang You has a chance to strangle him, otherwise, it will definitely not be such a dead appearance." Lan Xin said.
"It seems that there are many more things we have to investigate." Mo Yan said thoughtfully.
Just when he was ready to thoroughly investigate Dongfang You, a holy decree suddenly came, and the person who came turned out to be Yang Gonggong beside the emperor, seeing Mo Yan, as if he had seen a savior, he excitedly stepped forward and made a big gift.
"The slave greets the prince!" Gonggong Yang's eyes flashed with excitement, making anyone feel confused when they saw it.
"Father-in-law Yang? How did you end up here? Mo Yan was also extremely puzzled.
"Lord Wang, please hurry up and go back with me to take a look, the palace is in chaos!" Yang Gonggong was going to cry when he said it.
Mo Yan's expression flickered, and he glanced at Lan Xin.
At this moment, the Southern Imperial Palace is lifeless, and the air is filled with the breath of death, if it weren't for the palace maids and eunuchs who walked around occasionally, whoever came here would probably feel that this was an empty city.
After Mo Yan entered the palace, he was taken directly to the palace of the Queen Mother, who had always looked high and unfazed, but now, his expression looked very anxious, walking around the dormitory, glancing at the door from time to time, as if he was eagerly looking forward to something.
"The prince is here!" A clear voice immediately attracted the attention of the Queen Mother, who walked a few steps quickly, and suddenly seemed to think of something, immediately stopped, sorted out her emotions a little, turned around and sat on the high seat again, and the panic on her face was temporarily hidden by him.
"Biographyβ" The Queen Mother said in a deep voice.
After a while, Mo Yan came in, and along the way, Yang Gonggong had already told him the general situation, so he naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, and he could see at a glance how anxious the Queen Mother in front of her, who was sitting in a high position as if nothing had happened.
"I've seen the Queen Mother." Mo Yan just bowed slightly, the party concerned was not in a hurry, is it necessary for him to be so nervous?
"Moyan, you're here." The Queen Mother said slowly.
"I don't know why the queen mother summoned me to the palace in such a hurry?" Mo Yan asked.
The Queen Mother frowned, and immediately glanced at Yang Gonggong on the side, Yang Gonggong also felt very aggrieved, along the way, he had already told Mo Yan the ins and outs of the matter, why was Mo Yan pretending to be stupid at this time?
Only then did the Queen Mother realize that Mo Yan was doing this on purpose, and she originally wanted to take the initiative herself, but she didn't expect that Mo Yan was even calmer than herself, and the Queen Mother took a deep breath.
"Mo Yan, the mourning family thought that Gonggong Yang told you all the way, but I didn't expect him to be lazy." The Queen Mother put all the blame on Gonggong Yang.
"Actually, there is nothing important, that is, the emperor has ignored the government recently, it seems that there is something to worry about, you are brothers, the mourning family thinks, let you come back and persuade the emperor, if there is anything to say, don't let her hold it in her heart alone, in case his body is suffocated, it will not be good, after all, the emperor is not his alone, the emperor is the emperor of the entire southern country, and the southern country cannot live without him." The Queen Mother said all this very easily.
However, only Mo Yan understands that the emperor is not like what the queen mother said, just ignoring the government and politics, from the words of Yang Gonggong, Mo Yan has already deduced that the emperor has now fallen deeply into the six main gods of the Seven Evil Palace, and he can't get out.
"The royal brother will be fine, don't worry." Mo Yan said lightly.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
