Shangguan Jing rode his horse all the way and returned to the imperial city in less than two days. At this moment, Murong Shuo naturally didn't dare to leave her for half a step.

In the imperial city, the streets and alleys are plastered with wanted notices. The streets don't seem to be as lively as they used to be.

Since the people rioted at the gate of the city a few days ago and were suppressed, the originally lively imperial city is now panicked.

Murong Shuo escorted Shangguan Jing back to the Marshal's Mansion.

Where is the Marshal's Mansion today, where is it still as magnificent as before!

Outside the house, the golden plaque that had been hanging on the door frame was now dropped to the ground and broken into several sections. There is also a seal affixed by Dali Temple on the gate.

Shangguan Jing rushed towards the gate in a few steps, staring at the two seals and instantly reddening his eyes.

Holding back tears, she tore the seal off.

She slowly pushed the door open......

The house is a bleak scene again-

The leaves are all over the ground, the flowers and plants are withered, and the dead branches are lying on the ground, and when they step on it, they click and break into two.

When they came to arrest them, the rude soldiers kidnapped them and took them away with all the valuables. The current Shangguan Mansion is only an empty shell, which is extremely depressed.

"Ahh

Shangguan Jing couldn't hold back any longer, she yelled out in pain, covered her head and squatted down in place. The tears fell to the ground and were quickly evaporated.

Murong Shuo secretly clenched the jade flute, stood behind her, stretched out his hand to appease her, but stopped in mid-air.

He pursed his lips, eventually placing his hand gently on her shoulder.

Murong Shuo opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Shangguan Jing suddenly raised his face buried in his arm, as if he was talking to himself:

"Where's my dad? Was my father taken away by the people of Dali Temple?"

Murong Shuo also squatted down, he held her shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry, your father will definitely be fine." ”

Shangguan Jing looked at him, wiped his tears with his sleeve fiercely, and scurried up.

Murong Shuo also got up and gently patted her on the shoulder.

Shangguan Jing looked at him and said, "I want to figure out this matter and rescue my father!" ”

Murong Shuo was about to open his lips, but was interrupted by Yun Rong who walked in at the door.

"Impulsiveness won't solve the problem."

Yun Rong was still the same as before, shaking a folding fan and wearing a golden embroidered brocade robe.

"Why are you here?" Murong Shuo hurriedly stopped in front of Shangguan Jing and looked at him very vigilantly.

Yun Rong put away the folding fan, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to arrest Shangguan Jing." ”

Yun Rong approached the two of them and continued: "Aren't you afraid of being arrested if you come here so blatantly in broad daylight? ”

Shangguan Jing walked around Murong Shuo's back and grabbed Yun Rong's hand excitedly, and asked, "How is my father?" Is he in Dali Temple now? Did you torture him? ”

"Don't worry, Lord Shangguan is fine for the time being."

Yun Rong glanced at Murong Shuo and said, "This is not the place to talk, you come with me." ”

Shangguan Jing habitually looked at Murong Shuo, only to see Murong Shuo nodding slightly towards Shangguan Jing.

The two followed Yun Rong out of Shangguan Mansion.

"Well, it's nice here, isn't it?" Yun Rong shook the folding fan and said to Murong Shuo with a smug face.

Shangguan Jing didn't feel anything, but Murong Shuo was uncomfortable at this moment.

What does a good place mean? Qinglou can also be considered a good place!

He held his breath, looked at Shangguan Jing with a decadent face, and forced this breath back into his stomach.

"Get down to business." Murong Shuo said to Yun Rong expressionlessly.

Yun Rong put away the folding fan and spoke eloquently.

"Actually, yesterday, my father had secretly sent Lord Shangguan out, and I don't know where I sent it."

"My father will never be in cahoots with the Northern Desert, who wants to harm my Shangguan family like this?" Shangguan Jing clenched his fists and said.

"I don't know the specifics, I only know that this order was issued by His Majesty, and it was executed by Wu Shangcheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the entire Shangguan Mansion was also taken away by him. Originally, according to the will, tomorrow was the day of Lord Shangguan's execution, but my father sent him out of the city, and now Yu Linwei is searching for him with all his might. ”

Shangguan Jing let out a sneer.

"It turns out that it will be our Shangguan family's turn so soon......"

Shangguan Jing got up on the case, Murong Shuo stood up nervously and grabbed her hand, and asked, "Why are you going?"

Shangguan Jing looked at him and replied, "I'm going to find my father." ”

"What are you looking for him? Find him, and then have Yu Linwei arrest you both and send you to the guillotine? Yun Rong knocked on the fan and said.

"No matter what, I'm going to make sure my dad is safe now." Shangguan Jing said stubbornly.

Murong Shuo still took her hand and said, "There are your wanted warrants everywhere here, it's not safe." Come back to the palace with me first, you can't dress like this and leave." ”

"His Royal Highness is right, you are too ostentatious like this, and it is easy to expose your whereabouts. Let's go to the palace to hide for a while, and think about it in the long run. Yun Rong also persuaded.

Murong Shuo stared at Shangguan Jing, and Shangguan Jing was also staring at him, but in the end she compromised.

Murong Shuo didn't say a word, pulled Shangguan Jing all the way back to Jingyang Palace.

Yun Rong looked at the backs of the two and shook his head helplessly. He sat down, picked up his glass, and drank it down.

He sighed, took the folding fan, dropped a silver ingot, and swaggered out of the green building with the fan.

When Shangguan Jing appeared in the Jingyang Palace, the King of Jingyang was stunned.

He never expected that his son would bring her back at this time, isn't this self-defeating!

"Shuo'er, you ......"

King Jingyang pointed at Murong Shuo and wanted to scold, but he didn't know what to scold him.

Murong Shuo didn't have anything to say, but Shangguan Jing had a bitter face, and he never saw the smile of the past again. She spoke indifferently but politely:

"Uncle Murong, don't worry, I won't implicate the Jingyang Palace."

King Jingyang's heart ached.

This kid is so angry with him now.

Murong Shuo also became nervous, what she said would not drag down the Jingyang Palace, it was nothing more than to block the bloody wind by herself.

"Don't say that, we'll solve everything together." Murong Shuo stared at her affectionately and said.

King Jingyang looked at his son curiously, and always felt that he was weird.

However, at this moment, Shangguan Jing didn't have that much energy to think about Murong Shuo's words.

She knew exactly where she was now—the son of a criminal and a wanted criminal.

Her pride and self-esteem told her that she must not affect the Jingyang Palace. Otherwise, she will never forgive herself in this life.

"This matter has nothing to do with Jingyang Palace, and I don't want you to be implicated because of me. It's my own business, and I'll have to figure it out on my own. Shangguan Jing said stubbornly.

"Ah Jing? Why are you so confused! Your father saved me so many times on the battlefield back then, and now you tell me to stand by while he is in trouble. King Jingyang was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

"Ah Jing, don't say anything, I'm in charge of the affairs of the Shangguan Mansion!"

"Uncle Murong ......"

"Ah Jing!"

Shangguan Jing thought that she was decisive enough, but she didn't expect King Jingyang to be even firmer than her position.

"Shangguan Jing, it's been a year since you and I have known each other, and before you helped the palace find out the murder case and clear the suspicion for the palace, I haven't paid you back this favor until now." Murong Shuo looked at Shangguan Jing and said so many words in one breath.

He paused, then continued, "Since we have already been friends for a lifetime, then I hope you can accept my help. ”

Murong Shuo looked at her firmly.

Shangguan Jing met his gaze.

It turns out that this is the so-called seeing the truth in adversity.
