Tuoba Lin's misty eyes blinked and blinked, as if he was recalling something, his expression was very entangled, he seemed to remember it for a while, and he couldn't help but shrink into Tuoba Chen's arms, as if he was a little afraid of Tuoba Yue, such a reaction amused several people present, and the solemn and weird atmosphere was much better.

He Xi pursed her lips, but there was a mischievous smile between her eyebrows, she turned her head to look at Tuoba Yue, looking like she was watching a good show, Tuoba Yue was a little stunned, her eyebrows were extremely good-looking, so smiling, her eyebrows became more and more picturesque, and a little cinnabar between her eyebrows seemed to be more and more red.

For a moment, Tuoba Yue regretted a little, he shouldn't have sent He Xi into the palace, the longer the time, the more undetermined he became, but whenever this time, in his mind, he couldn't help but recall the appearance of his mother before she died, her once so gentle eyes, her eyes were full of pain, her ten fingers were dripping with blood, and her carefully cared for nails were turned outward, revealing blurred flesh and blood, no, he couldn't regret it, this road, since he was gone, he had to grit his teeth and go on.

His eyes instantly became clear, and he became more and more cold and detached, he arched his hand and said: "If Your Majesty has nothing else to tell your minister, your brother will leave the palace, there are still many things waiting for your brother in the ancient mausoleum, and it has rained heavily in the past few days, and it has been flooded inside, so I am afraid that I will have to find some more people to clean it up." ”

Tuoba Chen waved his hand unintentionally and said: "Such a trivial matter, the seventh brother is in charge, those Gu Jian are afraid that they can't be damp, and the task of protection is trivial and heavy. ”

He Xi just hung her head and didn't speak, she thought to herself that if one day, the day the mountains and rivers were subverted, Tuoba Chen would know how stupid and ridiculous he was now.

Thinking of this, He Xi even felt that she couldn't wait for that day, she wanted to see Tuoba Chen's remorseful appearance, and she also wanted to see him watch the world that she had planned to get little by little, and it was taken away by her younger brother, she wanted to see him kneeling in front of the wordless monuments to repent of his mistakes.

She was looking forward to all this.

Lan Ruo said with a smile: "A few days ago, I heard that Miss Xiao Nai was unaccustomed to water and soil and fell ill, I don't know if she is better?" Can you ask the doctor to see it? ”

Tuoba Yue replied respectfully: "Let the queen mother worry, there is a doctor in the house, so there is no need to bother the imperial doctor in the palace." ”

He Xi felt that when he talked about Xiao Nai, his expression was not as tender as before, and his eyebrows were tightly frowned, as if he was a little reluctant to mention it.

But in a blink of an eye, she felt that she was really asking for trouble, what was going on with him and Xiao Nai, and what did it have to do with her. Everyone in the courtyard had their own thoughts, seeing that it was not too early, everyone went back to the palace, without Tuoba Lin babbling by his side, He Xi only felt that his palace was a little scary, smiled self-deprecatingly, and got up to clean up the toys that Tuoba Lin threw before.

"You care too much about him." A cold male voice came from behind him, He Xi paused, turned around, and sure enough, he saw a handsome figure standing not far behind him, staring at the toy in his hand with burning eyes.

She felt a pang in her heart, and pretended to be casual and said, "His Royal Highness King Xian doesn't care about this child, otherwise how could he open his mouth to propose today?" ”

Tuoba Yue's expression was awe-inspiring, indeed, maybe this child was placed in Lan Ruona, he could indeed play a better role, as long as he moved his hands and feet a little, even if Lan Ruo cleared the suspicion, there was no way to make Tuoba Chen not doubt it, but when he saw He Xi's eyes, Tuoba Yue's words unconsciously came out of his mouth, so dripping, it seemed that he had thought about it thousands of times in his heart.

"What happened last time, I'm sorry-" He Xi thought for a while and finally spoke.

Seeing that Tuoba Chen didn't speak, He Xi just thought that he didn't accept his apology, and hurriedly added: "It's the last time I said that you wanted to use Lin'er and Li Jingui." I- I didn't mean to. ”

He Xi was cramped, and there seemed to be no place for her hands and feet, Tuoba Yue saw that she was like a child who had done something wrong, and a pair of phoenix eyes were already dyed with a smile, but her face was like a snow-capped mountain that would not melt all year round, condensed with frost.

"In a few days, I will come and take you to see the ancient mausoleum, after all, the idea is also what you came up with, and Gao Yuan will also show you your leg disease." As if it was an explanation, Tuoba Chen added another sentence emphatically.

He Xi was still anxious to reflect on the future, why did Tuoba Yue suddenly talk about this matter, before she could say anything, Tuoba Yue left unconsciously, He Xi held the toy in his hand, stunned in place, it seemed that Tuoba Yue was not angry with himself.

Looking at the empty hall door, He Xi even thought it was his own illusion.

The list of missing palace people was quickly investigated, there were dozens of people, I heard that Tuoba Chen lost his temper in the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, and even Fuqing was stunned by the jade bottle that held the wine, when He Xi heard this, he was sitting in front of the desk, copying the calligraphy of his predecessors, which was the poem in "Poetry, Wind and Decline": Decline, Decline! Hu no return? Because of Weijun, Hu is in the middle of the dew?

The predecessor of the post is cursive, compared to the italic small seal, He Xi prefers such a bold and uninhibited handwriting, for which his father often says that she is not like a girl, but the elder brother is often proud of himself, praising his sister will be a strange woman who will move the world in the future, and then she is indeed famous in the world, but because of her own identity after the abolition, because she is the reason for the fall of Mu Wangfu.

Chou'er stepped forward, saw He Xi practicing calligraphy, and hurriedly put away the rice paper whose ink had not yet dried up, and said, "How can the little master do this?" ”

He Xi looked at Chou'er as if she was facing a great enemy, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, she said softly: "Chou'er, what are you afraid of?" Chou'er's hand trembled gently, she looked at He Xi's red eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed, she knelt on the ground, held He Xi's hand and whispered: "Little master, don't be impulsive now, we have finally come to this point, don't do it." ”

The handwriting of this cursive script is too much like Mu Jin's words, in order to hide the shadow of Mu Jin before, she abandoned her right hand and only wrote with her left hand, but she was paranoid about practicing the cursive script exactly the same as before, she slowly closed her eyes, waved her hand at the ugly child and said, "That's it." ”

Seeing that she was already clear, Chou'er quickly took the paper and went down to burn it, He Xi opened his eyes, looked at the dancing flames in front of him, and asked, "Your Majesty is angry, and then what?" ”

Chou'er made sure that all the paper was burned, and only ashes remained, so he turned around, opened the window, and said: "Your Majesty ordered someone to investigate thoroughly, except for the corpse at the beginning, the rest have been verified one after another. ”

"There will be no master who cares, after all, someone cares, is it that no one in the palace notices that a person is missing? It seems that the people behind this are not small in the end. He Xi said coldly.

"Little master, Mama Yu said that I have something to see you." Outside the hall, Ruyi's voice came.

He Xi nodded, and the ugly child said outside: "The little master agreed, Ruyi, you bring Mama in." ”

Mama Yu limped, followed behind Ruyi, entered the inner hall, and hurriedly asked He Xi for a big gift, He Xi personally helped, and helped up Mama Yu and said: "Mama has something to do and let the two of them hand over a message, why did you come by yourself." ”

Mama Yu didn't get up, just knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Little master, the old slave knows the cause of death of these palace maids. ”

He Xi was stunned, and his tone became serious: "How can Mama know? "Indeed, it should have been a year since these palace maids died for the longest time, and at that time, Mama Yu was still in the prison of sin slaves, how could she know about this matter.

Mama Yu had a sad look on her face, and she gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "Most of these palace maids died at the hands of Li Zhong!" ”

"Li Zhong?" Ruyi repeated the name, his face turned pale, the humiliation of that day seemed to be in front of him, He Xi glanced at the ugly child, the ugly child walked to the front of the temple door, looked out, and then closed the door lightly.

"But who are they?" He Xi asked lightly.

Chou'er nodded and said, "The slave maid can see it clearly, it has been these people several times, and it can basically be determined." ”

He Xi didn't dwell on this issue, so he asked Mama Yu, "How does Mama know?" ”

Mama Yu's body was weak, half sitting on the ground, her eyes were full of tears: "Once, I heard a palace maid from the sin slave house say that one of her fellow villagers was tortured to death by Li Zhong, Li Zhong likes to find a palace maid to eat with him, and some people want to cling to him, so they are committed to him, but who knows that this Li Zhong is very spicy." The palace maid who fell into his hands, who was weak, was tortured to death several times. ”

Ruyi couldn't help but take a step back in fright, she remembered Li Zhong's eyes when she looked at her that day, such a yin owl, she couldn't help but feel cold, the ugly child grabbed Ruyi, and comforted her silently, Yu Mama continued: "This leg of mine is also because I heard Li Zhong and his subordinates talk about these pickled things, so I attracted Li Zhong's hatred. ”

He Xi remembered Li Zhong's reaction that day, it was really a little strange, and he couldn't help but believe Mama Yu a little in his heart.

"Does that grandma know anything else?" He Xi then asked.

Mama Yu shook her head and said, "The rest of the things, the old slave doesn't know." However, the old slave knew that the little master had always been kind-hearted, and asked the little master to seek justice for the dead girls. The old slave kowtowed to the little master! ”

After saying that, he slammed his head on the ground.
