After a night without words, Xing Tianze and Tao Mingxi had already fallen asleep early, but on the other hand, in the Wen Mansion, Wen Zhaoxue had been waiting for Xing Tianze's news at home, but in fact, she had waited for her all night without any movement.

Only a few guards always came to ask her, when would she go out? As if looking forward to her going out? Wen Zhaoxue naturally knew that she still had a case to solve, but she didn't get any news from Xing Tianze, so she felt bored doing anything.

So, after waiting for a night, I didn't see Xing Tianze issue any edict, or any holy decree to summon her into the palace, but something about Wen Zhaoxue's lax investigation of the case had already been passed into the palace.

It's just that about this case, the people around Tao Mingxi are investigating in another place, and in the middle of the night last night, they faintly saw a figure coming in and out, but, because the light was too dim and the people were not clear, there happened to be a woman above the originally lively street market.

It is estimated that the other party took a fancy to the woman who was about fourteen or fifteen years old, but suddenly saw that there were guards here, and immediately flashed, fortunately, the people around Tao Mingxi rushed over, otherwise another murder case would have happened.

When he returned to the palace to report to Tao Mingxi, it was already the middle of the year, and Tao Mingxi had already finished dressing, but he saw a guard coming to report, "Niangniang." ”

"Is there a situation?"

The guard immediately said: "The slave has been squatting in the southwest of the capital last night, and I inquired along the way, Miss Wen did not go out to investigate the case last night, but the slave waited for these guards, and when she squatted to the time, she saw a figure suddenly passing by."

At that time, there was also a little girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old who was shopping, but she did not notice that anyone was following her, and the figure saw the servants and others, and immediately fled, because it was too dark to see the true face of the person.

Just judging by her figure, she looks like a woman. ”

When Tao Mingxi heard this, he narrowed his eyes dangerously, so dangerous! almost lost another life," you waited and continued to squat. ”

"No!"

The guard replied and retreated, "Wen Zhaoxue, Wen Zhaoxue, the emperor gave you such a big case to solve for you, how can you be so slack?" If this matter reaches the ears of the emperor, how many lives does the palace have enough for you to cut? ”

Xing Tianze heard that Wen Zhaoxue did not investigate the case last night, and couldn't help frowning, "Huh? She didn't investigate the case last night? So, did any fatalities happen last night? ”

"Nope."

Wen Zhaoxue didn't investigate the case last night, but no lives happened, however, Xing Tianze had already guessed what kind of situation this was, and the corners of his lips rose after hearing it, but it was only for a moment, and soon, his face fell, "Order Wen Zhaoxue to enter the hall!" ”

Lord Liu immediately responded, "Yes." ”

Wen Zhaoxue was originally very happy to hear that Xing Tianze was going to meet her, but when she saw that it was Lord Liu, she was unhappy in her heart, "How could it be you?" What about the emperor? ”

Lord Liu just followed her words and said, "Of course the emperor will be in the palace."

Wen Zhaoxue didn't feel right, according to common sense, shouldn't the emperor have to carry it back with eight sedan chairs? Why only do you need Lord Liu to come? But this was Xing Tianze's order again, and Wen Zhaoxue didn't dare to disobey, so she had to get into the carriage and enter the palace.

According to the customs of Xingzhao Kingdom, if the king chooses a concubine, although it is not as noble as the queen, it is not necessarily so simple, and there is only Lord Liu from beginning to end.

How could Lord Liu not know the thoughts of this little woman, it is estimated that this woman wants to be a woman who wants to be Xing Tianze, but he has not said it, it is estimated that the next moment, what Xing Tianze said will definitely open his eyes.

As a result, there was silence all the way.

Lord Liu took Wen Zhaoxue to the front of the main hall, and Wen Zhaoxue was dumbfounded, "Lord Liu, does the emperor want you to bring me here?" ”

"Yes, you kid, where can I take you if I don't bring you here?"

Wen Zhaoxue's mood was a little unhappy, she still thought that Tao Mingxi had been beaten into the cold palace, oh, no, now the cold palace is not a cold palace, if you build another cold palace, it is not very easy, just thinking about it, the whole person is wilted.

Wen Zhaoxue entered the main hall and bowed generously, "Little girl Wen Zhaoxue see the emperor!" ”

Xing Tianze didn't let her get up and speak as usual, but let her kneel, and her face was extremely ugly, "I heard that you didn't go to investigate the case last night, I want to ask you where you were last night?" ”

Wen Zhaoxue looked at Xing Tianze's ugly face, and was so bluffed that she couldn't say a word, and said hesitantly, "Little girl, little girl is waiting for the emperor at home." ”

Lord Liu coughed dryly on the side, what Wen Zhaoxue hated the most was Lord Liu, but now she was very helpless, Xing Tianze didn't have the slightest expression on his face, "Wait for me?" What are I going to do? Could it be that the case has already been decided. ”

Wen Zhaoxue's voice was getting smaller and smaller, "No, no." ”

Lord Liu had no choice but to help Wen Zhaoxue and said, "Your Majesty, I heard last night that you ordered a few guards to protect her, presumably, this Lord Wen and his daughter thought too much, thinking that the emperor wanted to honor his daughter, so there was such a show." ”

Wen Zhaoxue pursed her lips, and then glared at Lord Liu, hating to glance at him, but after thinking about it, now she was above the main hall, and she didn't dare to say more.

Xing Tianze looked at Lord Liu at this time, "Oh? Lord Liu, you seem to know her well? ”

Lord Liu said: "The emperor doesn't remember much, just many years ago, the emperor fought with the enemy, was seriously injured and rolled off the cliff, and then she saved you, although the emperor did not have any good impression of her, but since then, this woman has always watched outside the palace gate."

I'm afraid that even the queen knows about this matter, a woman who doesn't know how to score inches is too much of a loss of identity, and the emperor was just a prince back then, and the concubine selection system is still there.

Originally, according to the date, it should have been hoped that Lord Wen's daughter would indeed have the hope of participating in the selection of concubines, but after the emperor's edict was issued, Lord Wen's daughter was completely hopeless, but these two were unwilling.

One is for money, and the other is for Your Majesty, but the emperor has always had only Niangniang in his heart, so naturally he didn't take other women into his eyes. ”

Hearing this, Xing Tianze thought about it, after the defeat that year, Xing Tianze was seriously injured and rolled off the cliff, and there were traitors in the army, and he was later rescued by a woman, but he never thought it was Wen Zhaoxue.

However, he didn't have anything on him at that time, so he had to reward them with some silver taels as a repayment, so from then on, they didn't owe each other.
