Duanmu Fei's steps paused, and followed Cen Yin into the room. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ .lā

Cen Yin strode past Rulan, lifted his robe, sat down on the Taishi chair at the top, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and his slightly raised eyes seemed to be seductive.

Rulan, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't dare to look at Cen Yin at all, and cold sweat fell from her forehead and cheeks at a speed visible to the naked eye, and fell on the blue brick floor "tick-tock".

Cen Yin asked Duanmu Fei unashamedly: "But this person called Her Royal Highness the eldest princess away?" ”

"It's her." Duanmu Fei replied succinctly.

Rulan hurriedly raised her head and stammered, "Overseer, slave...... The slave has never seen Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess. Her round face was full of fear, and her face was bloodless.

Cen Yin, who was at the top, didn't look at her, just raised his hand and made a gesture, and didn't speak, the little scorpion was already knowledgeable, and reprimanded coldly: "When did the overseer tell you to speak?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw him make a lightning move and press on Rulan's left shoulder, with a "click", and the next moment, Rulan let out a scream like killing a pig, and her left shoulder drooped down at a strange angle......

Apparently, her joints were removed.

This scene made Duanmu Fei tense up, she was a human being in two lives, where had she ever seen such a scene.

She half-lowered her eyes, calmed her mind, looked at her nose, nose at her mouth, and looked at her heart.

Grandfather Mrs. Chu rarely mentioned Dongchang to her, but when talking about the Dongyang Party case, he said with embarrassment that whether it is Dongchang Jinyiwei or Xungui courtiers, in the end it is the knife in the hands of the emperor, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind......

In recent years, the power of the East Factory has been monstrous, everyone is afraid, and it is inevitable to talk about a few words in private, such as even the invincible commander of the Jinyi Guard must obey the orders of the factory, for example, the factory guards of the East Factory have selected capable members from the Jinyi Guard, and for example, the East Factory is especially good at arresting torture, not only there are eighteen sets of torture tools, but also ten tortures are terrifying, in comparison, this method of removing the joint is probably not enough at all.

"The Overseer spares his life...... Slaves...... The slave has seen Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess! Rulan cried out heartbreakingly, and the scream was terrible, but the people in the room were unmoved.

Cen Yin caressing his sleeves with his right hand carelessly, his fingers were white and slender, as distinct as jade bamboo, and his nails, which were trimmed smoothly and measured, had a pale pink luster.

At this moment, he slowly asked, "This seat asks you, who asked you to send a message to Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?" ”

Rulan's body trembled slightly, and she hesitated: "Slave...... Slave ......"

A sneer curled into the corner of the little scorpion's mouth, and without warning, he struck again, and unloaded her right shoulder.

Rulan let out another miserable scream, accidentally bit her tongue, bright red blood overflowed from the corners of her mouth, and the whole person knelt there in an extremely twisted and weird posture, as if she was not a person, but a marionette with a broken thread.

Rulan's heart defense was completely defeated, her eyes were dilated, and she replied in a trembling voice: "Duanmu girl...... It was Miss Duanmu who asked the slave to go! Her round face was full of fear, and her face was bloodless.

"Duanmu" is not a common surname, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military is also Duanmuxian.

This time, Duanmu Xian accompanied the trip, and only brought Duanmu Fei's granddaughter, which means that the Duanmu girl in Rulan's mouth is "Duanmu Fei".

Duanmu Feiyan first widened his apricot eyes in surprise, then smiled, and obediently did not interject.

Cen Yin asked lightly, "Duanmu girl, do you recognize her?" ”

Duanmu shook her head and replied, "Before today, I didn't know her. ”

As she spoke, she looked at Rulan who was kneeling on the ground, her big black and white eyes were a little sharp, as if she wanted to see through the other party.

Rulan looked up at her suddenly, her pale lips trembled slightly, and said, "You, you are Duanmu girl?" …… It's you, it's you who let the slave go! You save the slaves! She crawled on her knees towards Duanmufei, her arms hanging weakly at her sides, describing her madness, like a drowning person trying to grasp a life-saving straw.

The little scorpion kicked her shoulder unceremoniously, and then flipped her right hand, and there was a long iron nail on her fingertips, and the cold light flashed.

Rulan was so frightened that she almost lost her soul and collapsed to the ground like mud.

She didn't expect that her greed for money would end up like this, her forehead hit the ground heavily, and her face was covered with tears and snot.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

She kowtowed as she murmured, "Overseer, the slave is not lying...... A maid in a green dress gave the slave maid ten taels of silver, and said, "It was Duanmu girl who asked the slave maid to pass a message to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess......"

She looked as if she was a demonic barrier, and her mouth repeatedly muttered "It's Duanmu girl".

With her muddy state, if it weren't for the carefully cultivated spies who were pretending, I am afraid that she really thought so.

Cen Yin groaned and asked again: "So, what did you say to Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?" ”

Rulan continued to reply in fear: "The slave maid told Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess...... Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess is waiting for Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess on the shore of Daqian Lake......"

Cen Yin casually raised his hand and made a gesture, and the little scorpion immediately struck again, slashing at the back of Rulan's neck.

She didn't even have time to scream, her eyes rolled and she fainted.

Duanmu Fei stood up, didn't try to explain anything, but looked at Cen Yin with clear eyes, and said, "Overseer, can I go with you?" ”

Cen Yin stood up, did not answer Duanmu Fei directly, and simply ordered: "Prepare the horse!" ”

As he spoke, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the unconscious palace maid on the side, and his thin lips were slightly hooked.

Duanmufei, this little girl, was accused of being so calm and bold on the spot...... Could it be that the girls from the north are all such newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers?!

Cen Yin's enchanting eyes sparkled, as if he remembered some interesting past, the smile on his lips softened, and he strode out of the house.

Hearing Cen Yin's words, he agreed, Duanmufei trotted to follow, and said obediently by the way: "Don't worry, I will be very obedient." ”

When she followed Cen Yin to the gate of the Hunting Palace, a green canopy carriage had been prepared, and the coachman holding the whip was the little scorpion. In addition to the three of them, there were also thirty or forty Dongchang factory guards riding on tall horses.

They were all tall, their eyes were like lightning, and just by straddle the horses like this, they released a fierce murderous aura all over their bodies, like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed.

I'm afraid these people are all the elite of the East Factory.

After Duanmu Fei got into the carriage, the group set off.

The trails in this area are not as smooth as the official roads, but the carriages are quite smooth.

A group of carriages and horses galloped through the muddy and rugged mountains, and I don't know how long it took, a man's respectful voice sounded outside the carriage: "Overseer, I have found the eldest princess." The male voice, mingled with the sound of horses' hooves, was unhurried, and seemed to be calmly stating a fact, "Just three miles ahead." ”

Cen said faintly: "Go over and take a look." ”

The group of carriages and horses continued to gallop forward, Duanmu Fei couldn't help but open the curtain on one side and looked out, and after a while, she saw two women's figures beside the woods on the side of the road from a distance, one was bloated and sitting on the ground in embarrassment; The other is wearing a bright and dazzling red riding costume, holding a red horse in his hand, and it is the eldest princess Wuyang.

The carriage gradually slowed down, and Duanmu Fei shouted, "Sister Wuyang." ”

Seeing that Wuyang was safe and sound, Duanmu Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

A group of cars and horses are coming, of course, it is impossible for Wuyang to find such a big movement, and he is wondering how the people from Dongchang are here, until he hears Duanmufei's voice, he smiles.

The green canopy carriage stopped beside Wuyang, and Duanmufei immediately jumped out of the carriage and trotted over.

The afternoon sun was scorching and dazzling, the golden sun sprinkled on Wuyang's body, her bright little face was drenched with sweat, and the sideburns on her forehead were slightly soaked with sweat, looking a little embarrassed.

She first nodded to Cen Yin, called "Master Cen Supervisor", and then looked at Duanmu Fei: "Sister Scarlet, are you here to find me?" ”

Duanmu Fei nodded, and simply started from the fact that she was a little worried when she saw that Wuyang hadn't replied for a long time, until she found the half-burned note on Chu Yu's body, and then asked, "Sister Wuyang, can you see Cousin Hanxing?" ”

Wuyang coughed lightly, a hint of embarrassment on his little face.

She originally planned to go to Daqian Lake to see Hanxing as promised, but halfway through, she felt that something was wrong...... Even if Han Xing has something to say to her in private, he can find a place to talk in the hunting palace at will, why bother so much, he has to go to Daqianhu to say it, and the palace maid who came to spread the word looked very angry.

Wuyang thought of the note in the morning, and wondered if Hanxing was in trouble, and after thinking about it, he planned to return to the Hunting Palace to find some more people.

But the scenery around here is very monotonous, with wild woods, meadows and mountains as far as the eye can see, and the winding dirt paths look more like they have been carved out of a mold.

She went around and around, and she got lost.

She had been wandering around here for almost two hours, and she had never found her way back to the Hunting Palace, nor had she found Daqian Lake...... If it weren't for Duanmufei and them, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to go back until dark.

Zhiwu Yang is like Duanmu Fei, and when she looks at her delicate expression, she knows that she is lost! Wuyang has been smart since she was a child, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not good at remembering the road - if there are no markers along the way, even on the winding verandah in the palace, she can also lose herself.

So, Wuyang didn't see Hanxing at all, right?!

Duanmu Fei thought a little crying and laughing.

"That'...... Who is this? Cen Yin spoke lightly, squinting at the woman in Tsing Yi sitting on the ground on the side, and a dark light flashed in her dark eyes.

The woman's hair was messy, her description was messy, and the corners of her mouth and eyes were bruised, as if it was because of these murderous factory guards around her, she was a little stunned, and she didn't dare to move when she shrank there.

"Hongu met on the road." Seeing that no one asked her about getting lost, Wuyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "She seems to have met a thief." ”

Wuyang also just met this woman in Tsing Yi, at that time, she was trying to find someone to ask for directions, and when she got closer, she found that this woman's description was very embarrassing, crying and shouting, as if she had been robbed, and before she could ask carefully, Cen Yin and Duanmu Fei and they arrived.

"Official, official." The woman said in a trembling voice, "The women of the people, the women of the people, are good people......

Duanmu's little face was crooked, and a pair of apricot eyes were fixed on a gold earring on the woman's right earlobe, the style of this earring was very exquisite, carved with lotus patterns, it was the pattern of Jiangnan, and it didn't look like the ordinary cyan Confucian skirt on her body.

There is only one gold earring, and the earlobe of the other ear is stained with blood, as if someone has torn off the earrings, but it really looks like it was robbed by a thief.

But why did you grab only one earring?

Could it be that there is something more important than gold earrings......

Moreover, since she recognized them as "officials", she had just been robbed, but why didn't she want to "report to the officials", but were so afraid?!

Duanmu Fei's heart moved, and he hurriedly looked at Cen Yin, wanting to tell him his guess, but before he could speak, he saw Cen Yin hook his lips and asked gently like a Taoist: "You, have you ever seen a girl about twelve years old?" ”

"Nope!" The woman in Tsing Yi shook her head busily and said, "Min...... The women had never seen anyone else. ”

Cen Yin raised his right eyebrows, revealing a hint of a smile, and ordered lightly: "Take it down, I asked with a good life." ”

The torture of this Dongchang is also exquisite, and the so-called "good life asks" is a heavy torture to extract a confession, but she must be left with this little life.

The two factory guards took the order, and dragged the woman in Tsing Yi out one left and one right, and the action was rude, the woman's face turned pale with fright, and she shouted: "The official spares his life!" The women are telling the truth! ”

Wuyang still didn't understand a little, but wisely didn't say anything.

She doesn't like Dongchang, but no matter how tyrannical Dongchang is, it shouldn't be enough to do it to an ordinary woman for no reason. Unless, Cen Yin has found something...... Although, she really didn't notice anything wrong.

In the woman's begging for mercy, the two factory guards dragged her to the woods on the side, and soon, the woman's terrible and sharp screams were heard soaring into the sky, and there was no movement at all......

The silence in the forest makes people wonder what is going on inside.

After a while, the two factory guards dragged the woman in green clothes out of the woods, and the woman seemed to have fainted, paralyzed like a puddle of mud.

A mustachioed factory guard walked to Cen Yin's side, whispered a few words, and pointed to the southwest, Wuyang and Duanmu Fei in the carriage both looked at the two of them for a moment, but they couldn't hear a word.

Cen Yin's dark eyes narrowed for a moment, and he quickly glanced in the direction of Duanmufei.

That glance is intriguing.

Before Duanmu Fei could see anything from his eyes, his gaze had already moved away.

Duanmu Fei tried to see some clues from Cen Yin's expression, but what he saw was always that understated smile, as if he didn't take all this to heart.

Cen Yin casually made a "come with him" gesture and took the lead on the horse.

Wuyang pulled Duanmu Fei to ride with her, and rode a horse to follow.

The group galloped two or three miles to the southwest, and in the distance, Duanmufei heard many people talking loudly, shouting loudly, and there was a heavy knocking sound one after another: "Bang!" Bang......"

Each blow seems to strike on the heart of a person, as if to indicate some kind of ominousness.

Immediately afterward, a dilapidated temple came into their view, with broken walls and broken bricks, apparently abandoned for some time.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

As they got closer, the banging on the door grew louder and louder, and it was clearly audible.

More than a dozen feet away, I saw more than a dozen fierce and vicious men in the prime of life gathering at the gate of the broken temple, and the men in front of them frantically banged on the rotten gate of the temple, and the wooden door that was not strong was creaked, and it was so dangerous that it seemed to collapse at any time.

"Bang!"

There was another heavy blow, and the wooden door, which was already crumbling, was finally slammed open under the impact of the continuous overturning, and there was a sharp panicked scream from the temple, almost toppling the roof.

"Hanxing!" Listening to the familiar female voice, Wuyang blurted out nervously, and intuitively wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Cen Yin raising his right arm.

In front, the man at the head waved his arm and shouted in a rough voice: "Brothers, go in and ...... that little lady."

"Whoosh-"

Before he could finish his words, a sharp sound of breaking the air came from behind, splitting the air like lightning, and a feathered arrow shot from a hundred feet away in the blink of an eye, and the sharp arrow passed through the back of the leader's neck, making a "click" spine breaking sound.

The man who had been hit by the arrow fell straight forward......

"Boom!"

The tall body fell at the entrance of the temple, and the feathered arrow stuck in its neck was shocking, and the others let out a frightened cry and looked in the direction where the feathered arrow had come from.

"Whoosh!"

Several more feathered arrows struck them like meteors, and at the same time, more than a dozen factory guards galloped in the direction of the temple.

These people are just a rabble, and when they see these wolf-like factory guards, they are even more alarmed, and they scream one after another:

"Yes...... It's officers and soldiers! ”

"What should I do?"

"Run! Officers and soldiers are coming! ”

“……”

They panicked and sprang in all directions like headless flies, but most of them had no chance to run far, so they fell to the ground with arrows in disarray, and their bodies fell to the ground...... Except for the two living mouths that were deliberately left, all the others have been killed.

"Rustling ......"

A cool breeze of late autumn blows, bringing a strong smell of blood, which makes people feel sick.

Of course, Duanmu Fei, who was riding with Wuyang, also smelled it, his eyebrows were tightly locked, but he didn't look away, he still looked in the direction of the temple in front of him, and watched those factory guards neatly drag those dead corpses aside, clearing an unobstructed road.

Cen Yin turned over and dismounted, and went straight into the ruined temple in front of him, obviously surrounded by corpses, and the smell of blood in the air was so strong that it was disgusting, but Cen Yin still walked leisurely between his gestures, like a noble son who came out for an outing, elegant and calm.

Wuyang and Duanmu Fei also hurriedly dismounted and followed without squinting.

The dilapidated temple was in shambles, and the dilapidated incense cases, futons, and shelves were covered with dust. Directly in front of it is a huge sculpture of the City God, and most of the gold paint on the sculpture has been lost, which is old and mottled.

Under the sculpture, a slender girl in pink is leaning against the corner of the wall, her little face is as white as faded petals, and her slender delicate body is trembling like a fallen leaf in the wind, looking frightened.

It was the fourth princess Hanxing, who had been missing for most of the day.

When he saw Cen Yin, Wuyang and Duanmu Fei coming in, Han Xing couldn't believe his eyes, and looked at the three of them with wide eyes, his eyes red.

"Four Emperor Sisters!"

It was Wuyang who was the first to speak, she walked up to Hanxing in three steps and two steps, and grabbed her cold little hand.

"Cousin Hanxing, it's fine if you're okay!" Duanmu smiled brightly at her.

When the two girls saw that Hanxing was safe and sound, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm!

Han Xingzhi stared at the familiar faces of Wuyang and Duanmu Fei in a daze, and it was like a dream for a while, only the pain from the back of her neck and wrist told her that what happened that day was true!

Early this morning, Han Xing received a note, which said that there was evidence that Duanmu Guifei had harmed Liu Jieyu's miscarriage, and asked Han Xing for 5,000 taels of silver as a hush money, and asked her to meet on the shore of Daqian Lake.

Han Xing originally wanted to discuss with the eldest prince, but today was the first day of the hunt, and the eldest prince was by the emperor's side early in the morning, so she couldn't find a chance to talk to him in private.

The hunting palace is hundreds of miles away from the capital, and it is impossible for her to discuss with the concubine, and even she doesn't know if Liu Jieyu's miscarriage is really related to her mother! She thought about it again and again, but quietly left the palace maid and went to Daqian Lake to see who was blackmailing her.

But what she didn't expect was that before she saw anyone, she was beaten from behind and fainted.

When she woke up, she had been tied up by a woman in Tsing Yi, gagged with a cloth ball, and thrown into a donkey cart.

From the other party's words, she knew that this woman was a black-toothed woman, and the other party kept saying that it was best to sell a little palace maid like her, and sell it to the deep mountains and old forests to be a daughter-in-law for Orion, and it could be sold for at least ten taels of silver.

Hanxing took advantage of the fact that Ya Yu was not paying attention, hid in the donkey cart and grinded off the hemp rope that bound her wrists little by little, and waited for an opportunity to jump off the donkey cart and escape. Unexpectedly, at this time, he encountered a group of vicious bandits.

The gang of bandits snatched the silver taels and jewelry that the tooth had with them, and then found themselves again.

The greed and ** in their eyes let Han Xing know that once she was caught by them, she would be finished, so she ran away desperately, but the bandits were in hot pursuit...... Until she escaped to this ruined temple.

The moment the gate was broken by the bandits, Han Xing almost had the heart to commit suicide.

Thinking of the scene just now, Han Xing's eyes instantly turned red, and at this moment, he understood what "the rest of his life after the catastrophe" was, and he was both aggrieved and afraid.

"Big Imperial Sister!"

Hanxing couldn't suppress the turbulence in his heart anymore, and threw himself into Wuyang's arms, his shoulders trembled slightly, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, like rain. Wuyang gently patted her on the back.

For a while, only her sobs were left in the small ruined temple.

After a long time, Han Xing raised his head from Wuyang's shoulder, but saw that there was an extra water-green handkerchief in front of him, and Duanmu Fei smiled at her slightly, as if to say, it's okay.

Han Xing suddenly felt a burning sensation in his cheeks, and looked away a little embarrassedly, but still took the square handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Then, Han Xing thought of something again, and hurriedly said: "Sister Huanghuang, there is a tooth who has kidnapped this palace......"

Wuyang patted Han Xing's back twice, "It's okay, that tooth has been taken down by Lord Cen ......"

Wuyang seems to be calm, but in fact, he is also in a state of turmoil, and there are many doubts in his heart, but now Hanxing is in shock, and it is obviously not a good time to ask questions at this time, so he still pressed it.

Han Xing took a deep breath, calmed down, and raised his eyes to look at Cen Yin a few steps away and the expressionless factory guards behind him.

In a factory guard dressed in brown, Cen Yin, who wore a purple-red auspicious cloud pattern straight jacket, seemed to stand out from the crowd, he stood with his hands in his hands, pulled his hair with a bamboo hairpin, thick black eyes, snow-white skin, and red lips, forming a flawless face, beautiful and charming, like a flower of a high ridge, the mountains look up, and it is unreachable.

The emperor favors Cen Yin, and Han Xing, as the princess, is also quite jealous of him on weekdays, and he can avoid it.

Han Xing hesitated, but still took a step forward and thanked politely: "Thank you for the life-saving grace of Lord Cen today, this palace will remember it in my heart." ”

Han Xing straightened her back, as if she had become the proud little girl on weekdays, but her eyes were slightly red, and her voice couldn't hide the slight hoarseness.

Cen Yin smiled slightly, and said lukewarmly: "Your Highness is fine." ”

Wuyang looked at Duanmu Fei and said, "There is also Sister Scarlet...... Fourth Emperor Sister, today is really thanks to Sister Scarlet who found out that something was wrong, and specially invited Lord Cen to come out. ”

Han Xing was shocked when she heard this, she originally thought that Cen Yin was invited by Wuyang, but she was thinking about why Wuyang was so bold, but she never expected that it would be Duanmu Fei.

Duanmu Fei didn't dare to take credit, tilted his head and explained seriously: "Sister Wuyang and Cousin Hanxing haven't seen anyone for so long, I'm very worried. But the emperor entered the hunting ground early in the morning......"

Wuyang reached out and rubbed the top of Duanmufei's soft hair, with a gentle expression.

I really didn't see the wrong person!

Dongchang has a bad reputation, I don't know how many loyal people died in its unjust prison, except for the emperor and those vassal sycophants, who saw Dongchang and did not detour!

Duanmufei, a simple little girl, was worried about her own safety, and she did not hesitate to take the initiative to go to the tiger wolf's den to move the rescuers, this heart is really rare!

Han Xing's face could not hide the look of emotion, remembering that he had a lot of reproaches for Duanmu Fei before, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

In the past, she thought that Duanmufei, a heartless little girl, knew that she was revolving around Wuyang, as if she had completely forgotten that she still had her cousin...... It's my own fault. It turns out that this little girl can still distinguish between relatives and relatives, and knows that they are cousins!

While the girls were talking, the mustachioed factory guard walked into the ruined temple, and said with the results of the interrogation in Cen Yin's ear: "...... It was the refugees who fled from the Huaibei area, colluded together on the road, a group of 100 people, looting and poaching all the way, I heard that the holy car was here, and I was about to avoid it for a while, and when I met the tooth and did another vote, I was going to rob the four princesses and go back to the village......"

Cen Yin only said "take it back", and then said to Wuyang and the others: "Two princesses, it's time to go back to the Hunting Palace." ”

Of course, Wuyang and Hanxing had no objections, and the smell of blood around them really made them very uncomfortable, and they couldn't wait to leave this ghost place quickly.

Out of the broken temple, Wuyang abandoned the horse, got into the carriage with Duanmu Fei and Hanxing, and in a neat horsewhip, the carriage slowly accelerated and galloped in the direction of the Hunting Palace......

At the beginning of Shen, the girls' carriage was escorted by Cen Yin and a group of factory guards, and returned to the Xiyuan Hunting Palace.

The princess's captivity was not a glorious event, and therefore no one made any noise.

Wuyang brought Han Xing back to her Yaohua Palace, and invited the imperial doctor to come over to check Han Xing's pulse, prescribe a tranquilizing soup, and deal with the abrasions on her wrists, and then let Han Xing rest first......

In the afternoon, the hunting palace was empty, except for some serving slaves and maids, there were almost no people, and it was quiet.

Time passed slowly, the sun gradually sank in the west, and the clouds in the western sky were dyed red by the setting sun, and the delicate dripping was like a large flower blooming in the sky.

The emperor and his entourage returned to the hunting palace before the sun set, and the hunting palace seemed to be filled with vitality and became vibrant.

Wuyang, who got the news, immediately rushed to the main hall with Hanxing to ask to see the emperor, and by the way, Duanmu Fei also dragged him over.

The two princesses were violent, and the attendants serving in the main hall did not dare to be contemptuous, so they hurriedly led them to the East Warm Pavilion.

In the East Warm Pavilion, incense curls.

The afterglow of dusk sprinkled on the branches and leaves of the courtyard outside, and the residual leaves danced in the evening breeze, revealing a little decadence and gloom, as if they also knew that the night was coming.

At this moment, the emperor was sitting on a mahogany carved bamboo pattern chair by the window, his eyebrows were gloomy, and his face was not good.

In addition to the emperor, Cen Yin was also there, he changed into a big red unicorn robe, and stood sideways beside the emperor.

The atmosphere in the room was slightly stagnant.

"See Father."

"See the Emperor."

The three little girls saluted the emperor one after another, and the emperor gave the three of them a seat in a gentle manner.

"Father, you must be the master of your daughter this time!" Han Xing didn't sit down, she was full of grievances and anger and needed a place to vent, thinking back to what happened to her that day, her eyes naturally turned red, Sakura's lips were flattened, and she wanted to cry.

"My daughter almost ...... I almost never saw my father again...... Even the eldest sister almost fell into the hands of thieves! ”

Han Xing pinched a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, sobbing lowly, seeing that the emperor was distressed.

"Hanxing, don't be sad! Ah Yin told me what happened, and I will definitely call the shots for you! The Emperor beckoned to Han Xing and patted her on the back lovingly.

His daughter is the pride of the sky, where has she suffered like this!

This matter must be investigated to the end!

"Thank you, Father." Han Xing finally showed his face, and his little face had a bright look again.

Looking at the scene of filial piety and happiness of the father and daughter in front of him, Duanmu Fei picked up the pastel teacup on the side, and glanced at Cen Yin quietly out of the corner of his eyes, and couldn't help but think of what happened more than half an hour ago.

In the afternoon, after returning to the Hunting Palace with Wuyang and Hanxing, Duanmu Fei was quietly summoned by Cen Yin to speak.

Cen Yin told her that the tooth girl confessed that someone had bought her and asked her to abduct the two palace maids to the deep mountains and old forests to sell them to Orion, but today only Han Xing came to the shore of Daqian Lake, and the other palace maid never appeared.

Yayu also said that the person who bought her was a girl surnamed Duanmu......

Whether it was Rulan, Yayu, or the palace maid Ling'er who quietly put a note in Wuyang and Hanxing's food box in the morning, they all insisted that everything was bought by a "Duanmu girl".

Thinking of this, a ghostly light flashed in Duanmufei's clear pupils, and Cen Yin, who was diagonally opposite, seemed to feel something, lifted his eyelids and looked at Duanmufei, just met her slightly thoughtful eyes, and raised his eyebrows.

Since he was caught by the other party, Duanmu Fei smiled generously at him.

Cen Yin also hooked his lips, and his deep eyes flashed with a smile.

This little girl always surprises him, such as Fang Cai......

If others were to be accused by the three of them as the instigators behind the scenes, I am afraid that they would have panicked a long time ago, and they would only repeatedly emphasize that they did not do it, but Duanmu Fei is different.

Instead, she clearly proposed to herself that if she hadn't found out something wrong this afternoon because of that inconspicuous clue, and then saved Wuyang and Hanxing in time, the emperor would definitely order a thorough investigation.

When Wuyang was called away, several nobles, including the county lord of Yunhua, had seen the palace maid named Rulan, and the palace maids who served closely by Wuyang and Hanxing would definitely find out that there was a note in the food box.

At that time, will the Emperor of Thunder's Fury rationally order a clear investigation, or will he simply "rather kill the wrong one than let it go"?

In other words, almost, not only will Hanxing fall into unimaginable hell, but even she will fall into this trap and have no way to defend herself.

The people behind this scene are still wishful thinking.

The two who looked at each other thought clearly, and both squinted their eyes and smiled, as if two foxes, one big and one small, looked at each other knowingly and smiled.

At that moment, Duanmu Fei once again saw a touch of familiar love from Cen Yin's deep and charming eyes.

Old lady Chu, Mrs. Chu...... and Duanmujun often looked at her with such eyes.

No matter what outsiders say about Cen Yin and Dongchang, Cen Yin is indeed very kind to his sisters......

Duanmu lowered his eyes casually and sipped hot tea.

She is a person who remembers grace and hatred, Cen Yin's favor must be recorded, and the debts owed to her by others must be calculated slowly......
