Chapter 177: Is All This All Empty in Name?
A thin layer of ice formed on the iron sheet, and when he entered the warm hall during the last court, the frost melted, and there was water vapor. ”
"Wonderful! Wan'er, you are really a god! You can see that! Lin Rushuang finally understood the cause and effect, and said with an incredible smile.
Qing Wan's face was also filled with a smile of surprise, this was also great news for her, as long as Xiao Mochen was not really in the same room with Fu Yanran, it meant that Su Wan's status had not been shaken!
Su Wan lowered her head slightly with some embarrassment, in fact, if she was ordinary, she probably wouldn't have noticed these details, but because after listening to Fu Yanran's remarks before, she really couldn't help but pay attention to Xiao Mochen's bits and pieces, so she took all this into the eyes of the law.
"Su Wan, I didn't expect you to have some ability." Fu Yanran saw that his feelings had been revealed, so he didn't plan to disguise anymore, so he snorted coldly, smiled disdainfully and said: "The prince practiced in the courtyard all night last night, and he really didn't have time to have sex with me, of course I can understand him." ”
Caifeng's expression was a little heavy, and she clenched her fists slightly, without saying a word. From the old emperor to the peddlers and pawns in the palace, everyone thought that Xiao Mochen was really fortunate to Fu Yanran, but was all this empty joy?
Hearing that Fu Yanran personally bowed her head and admitted the matter, Lin Rushuang also looked a little more arrogant, and said with a cold snort: "Yo, how can you admit it now?" Just at the dinner table, didn't you still say that you want to have a little prince? I don't know if I'm ashamed! ”
The palace was full of ears and eyes, and there were a few servant girls who were hiding not far away to eavesdrop on the news, and their expressions changed, and they immediately spread the matter.
In less than half an hour, the whole palace will know that what Fu Yanran said this morning is a lie! Although Xiao Mochen has temporarily lost his memory, Su Wan's current status is still unshakable!
"Miss Lin, you are still a lady who has not been out of the cabinet, why are you so handy when you talk about sarcasm, it is really corrupt." Fu Yanran disdained to argue with Lin Rushuang more, and said a few words coldly, then Shi Shiran turned around and said: "Okay, Su Wan, let's agree on this, whoever successfully has a marriage with the prince first, the other person will get out of the house as soon as possible, how about it?" ”
If you want to become a nominal husband and wife and become a real couple, you must go through this step. Su Wan's mind was chaotic, she gritted her teeth and nodded, "I agree!" ”
"Humph!" After hearing Su Wan's promise, Fu Yanran didn't stay any longer, turned around and left quickly with proud steps.
Caifeng glanced at Su Wan with a strange expression, and walked away quickly to catch up with Fu Yanran.
"Is this true?"
The same question came from the mouths of a man and a woman.
Su Wan's shoulders trembled, and he turned his head in some surprise, but saw a familiar figure walking towards him.
This person is Lin Chuyang.
Lin Chuyang was also deeply surprised, he came to King Chen's Mansion, originally to see how Su Wan's situation was, and secondly, to bring a crucial news.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped up the steps, he heard Su Wan's incomparably clear self-statement. Lin Chuyang's mood instantly became very delicate, he had always thought that Su Wan had already married a wife and became Xiao Mochen's wife, it turned out that in fact, all this was in name?
Does this also mean that there are more or less certain opportunities for yourself?
Thinking of this, Lin Chuyang's heart, which had finally calmed down, instantly became hot again, and he couldn't help but look at Su Wan with burning eyes.
In contact with Lin Chuyang's gaze, Su Wan couldn't laugh or cry. "Brother! Why did you come here quietly and eavesdrop on us, which scared me a lot! ”
Lin Rushuang patted Lin Chuyang's shoulder with disgust, then looked at Su Wan with some embarrassment and said, "Wan'er, my brother has always heard nothing, don't care." ”
Lin Rushuang was the most careful, knowing that if Fang Cai's conversation was listened to by Lin Chuyang, Su Wan would be uneasy, so he deliberately said like this.
In fact, at such a close distance, Lin Chuyang is not deaf, how can he not hear.
Su Wan smiled a little helplessly, turned his head sideways to avoid Lin Chuyang's scorching gaze, and asked, "Lin Gongzi suddenly visited, I don't know what to do?" ”
Hearing Su Wan's question, Lin Chuyang came back to his senses from Fang Cai's joy slightly, smiled and said, "I found out a terrible news, and I want to tell Wan'er to you as soon as possible." ”
"What's the news?" Su Wan was a little strange, raised his head slightly and looked at Lin Chuyang and asked.
At this juncture, what Lin Chuyang investigated was nothing more than the assassination case that the old emperor encountered during his private visit. Since the team returned to the imperial capital, this matter has become a headless unsolved case, and there has been no progress at all.
"According to the latest news we have found, the mastermind behind Murong Li should be an organization called Wind Chasing Pavilion on the rivers and lakes." Lin Chuyang's eyes lit up, and he broke the truth with one word.
"Wind Chasing Pavilion?" Su Wan muttered to himself, frowned and said, "What kind of organization is this?" ”
"It's a new killer organization, known for being decisive and leaving no traces, and it is said that whether they want to kill good people or bad people, as long as the other party can give enough money, they will be willing to do it." Lin Chuyang said with some disdain.
"Is this not about morality? Can such a killer organization last long? Lin Rushuang asked with a somewhat puzzled frown.
In this day and age, killer organizations are not necessarily rats hiding in dark corners, on the contrary, they are sometimes priceless bounty hunters.
Killer organizations enjoy a high social status, but at the same time, they also assume a lot of social responsibility. The more famous the organization, the more attention it pays to whether the people it has been tasked with killing are heinous, and if it is just an ordinary person who has been framed, it will not take over.
If it is known to ordinary people, a well-known killer organization kills an ordinary good person just for money, then the organization will be discredited, and no matter how strong the ability to do things is, no one will ask them to do things again.
As the largest killer organization in the empire, Xiaoyao Pavilion has always adhered to its duties and behaved according to the rules. But because Li Weihu took over the task given to him by the prince to assassinate the emperor and the prince of the current dynasty, he could only do things incognito, for fear that people would know that this dirty work had something to do with Xiaoyao Pavilion.
"It is precisely because the Wind Chasing Pavilion does not pick the target to be killed, so there are many people who buy them with a lot of money to kill their enemies." Lin Chuyang shook his head, and said with a somewhat solemn face: "Therefore, there have been many incidents of highly respected martial arts heroes being murdered. ”
"If they act like this, it must be short-lived, and it can't last long!" Lin Rushuang was even more angry and indignant, and said indignantly.
"It's also possible that it's because this organization doesn't want to be a killer for long, and they're just desperate for a lot of money." Su Wan's face changed, and he said word by word.
Lin Chuyang's eyes lit up, with an approving look on his face, looking at Su Wan, he couldn't help nodding and said, "Wan'er said a point that we had never thought about before, which is worth pondering." ”
"Young Master Lin, I'm afraid you have found more important clues." Su Wan's eyes were as bright as Qingyang, and he looked at Lin Chuyang transparently and asked.
Lin Chuyang was a little surprised, looked at Su Wan uncertainly, and asked, "How did you know?" I haven't said it yet. ”
"Wan'er is a big detective, brother, your little trick naturally has nowhere to hide in front of her." Through the incisive reasoning of Fang Cai Su Wan, the current Lin Rushuang admires her so much that she can't help but tease her own brother.
Su Wan gently patted Lin Rushuang's shoulder and whispered: "Rushuang, don't pull the flag for me outside anymore, I can't afford the reputation of a detective." ”
Saying that, facing Lin Chuyang's puzzled gaze, Su Wan smiled slightly and said: "And I guess that the information that Lin Gongzi hasn't said yet should be directly related to me, otherwise, you just get the information of the Wind Chasing Pavilion, there should be a thousand details that need to be carefully investigated, and you won't come to Chenwang's Mansion to find me." You're here to get more information from me. ”
This time, Lin Chuyang was convinced, nodded with a smile and said: "Wan'er, you don't have to be humble, I don't think what Rushuang said is wrong at all, you are a detective!" ”
"Time is of the essence, you can tell the clue quickly."
Su Wan didn't want to listen to these compliments anymore, she was still anxious about how to get closer to Xiao Mochen, and she just wanted to deal with these complicated matters quickly.
"Wan'er, do you remember when you and King Chen were out on patrol, you met a strange businessman?"
Seeing that Su Wan was so urgent, Lin Chuyang also stopped playing with the current affairs, and asked with a serious face.
"Merchant?" Su Wan frowned slightly, thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and said, "I remember, a businessman named Ye Ziyu approached us. ”
"Brother, why do you ask? Could it be that this person has something to do with the Wind Chaser Pavilion? Lin Rushuang looked at Su Wan's reaction, and asked Lin Chuyang a little strangely.
In fact, saying that Ye Ziyu is just an ordinary businessman, Su Wan doesn't believe it. There were too many secrets hidden behind him, and even when he smiled at Su Wan, she would feel a little subtle chill.
Lin Chuyang nodded calmly, smiled even deeper, and said, "It's not just related, we suspect that he is the leader of this Wind Chasing Pavilion!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Su Wan's face suddenly changed, and he asked incredulously, "Are you sure?" This is no small matter! ”
"Yes, brother." Lin Rushuang was also a little panicked, and said: "Wan'er had a relationship with him at that time, if he was really the mastermind of the assassination, could he have prepared at that time?" Why didn't King Chen see the clues? ”
"After the dungeon case, someone took advantage of the night to steal Murong Li's body." Lin Chuyang lowered his head slightly, as if reminiscing, and continued: "Our people reacted immediately, fought with him, and during the fight, they were all stunned by the poisonous needles he released. ”
"Poison needle?" Su Wan's expression changed, as if he had thought of something.
"That's right." Lin Chuyang looked at Su Wan's reaction and said, "It's the poisonous bee incident that Ye Ziyu was involved in when he approached you!" In the depths of the silent court, every grass and tree is particularly solemn, and the palace maids and eunuchs who walk in it are all in a hurry, not smiling, for fear that if their words and deeds are inappropriate, they will fall into a pair of sharp eyes, and they will lose their lives.
The martial arts training ground is probably the most vibrant place in the entire imperial city, and there is nowhere to select elite soldiers and strong generals from the empire to conduct daily training, so as to protect the daily safety of the most core people in the entire empire.
However, today's martial arts training ground was extremely quiet, and the new generation of teenagers who had successfully joined the imperial guards through rounds of selection were standing in place with their heads held high, waiting for the head of the guard to divide them into various palaces.
"Those who were elected to the Empress Dowager's Yanxi Palace are: Lu Chengyue, Jiang Hengshen, and Dian Meng as ......"
The head of the guard looked at the roster and read the assignment results with a solemn expression. The young guards in the field, each with an anxious expression on their faces, waited to hear where they belonged.
Among them, a man with a fair face and excellent appearance is particularly eye-catching.
Gu Zeyang clenched his fists tightly and nervously waited for the assignment of the General Department of Guards. As early as the primary election, he wrote to express his feelings, saying that he wanted to work in the Dragon Pavilion, but he didn't know if he could get his wish.
After hearing the results of the assignment, the guards immediately went to the place of work with swords under the leadership of the father-in-law who was a miscellaneous officer. Seeing that there are fewer and fewer people on the martial arts training ground.
"Next, Dragon Pavilion!"
The head of the guard suddenly raised the volume of his speech, his eyes seemed to casually glance at the people who stayed, and said: "The Royal Dragon Pavilion is a fat place, it seems to be just a place for outsiders to rest, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that if they enter the Royal Dragon Pavilion, it is equivalent to King Chen's people." ”
"If you are fortunate enough to be assigned to the Imperial Dragon Pavilion, your fate will inevitably be turned upside down, if you are developed in the future, don't forget the cultivation of the chief secretary and my father-in-law."
The father-in-law, who had been silently beside him, suddenly raised his voice and said these meaningful words, and his eyes fell on the faces of the guards below one by one, as if he wanted to scavenge all their value.
This sentence is extremely accurate, with King Chen's current status, even if he is an attendant who lifts his shoes, he will be looked down upon by others when he walks on the road, let alone a henchman who accompanies him day and night?
Speaking of this, the young guards below couldn't help but show a look of yearning, and they were gearing up to join this much-anticipated position.
Feeling the subtle changes in the surrounding atmosphere, Gu Zeyang was a little nervous, his purpose for entering the Dragon Pavilion was different from others, he didn't want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, he just wanted to abide by the agreement with Lin Rushuang and help Xiao Mochen recover his memory.
If this goal is not achieved, Gu Zeyang will feel that he has failed Lin Rushuang's trust and expectations.
The General Secretary of the Guards lowered his head, returned his gaze to the roster, cleared his throat and read: "Those who have been selected into the Royal Dragon Pavilion are: Fang Zhihong, Li Dongsheng ......"
As the names were read out one by one, Gu Zeyang's side continued to have young guards with happy faces who proudly took steps to form a queue and read the latest chapter of "The Runaway Princess is Very Easy Claw Book House" for the first time.
