Chapter 101: Killing Chickens and Monkeys

After saying this, Lu Jiayue regretted it.

When he sends her, she will go back.

The implication is that if he doesn't send her, she won't go back?

Sure enough, Ding Can laughed.

But he didn't say anything, only said: "You are afraid of the heat, so I would like to send you back while it is cool in the morning." ”

Lu Jiayue was busy nodding like a chicken pecking rice.

On weekdays, the two of them are facing each other, you say a word to me, very freely and casually, but at this time, they are invariably silent.

The atmosphere in the main hall was very obscure, and the little guy outside suddenly came, saying that Ah Li was here.

As soon as Ah Li came in, he saw Lu Jiayue sitting there with her head down.

It turns out that these two are whispering...

Ah Li hesitated and smiled: "... Master, or I'm still waiting outside. ”

Ding Can glanced at him, "Let's just say it here, there are no outsiders." ”

Also, Miss Lu is already a member of this master, so she is naturally not an outsider.

Ah Li pondered in his heart, so he put aside his last worries, word by word, and said it neatly.

"It's Liu Neijian next to the saint, who was killed last night and died in his own house outside the palace. I've already taken someone to inspect it, and the killer is neat, killing him with a single sword, and leaving no trace. ”

The voice landed, and there was a moment of silence in the main hall.

I heard Ding Can laugh and said, "This is a strange thing." ”

Ah Li was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't understand what the master said... A few days ago, the matter of Liu Xian's secret collusion with the King of Wei was spread in the court, wasn't it that the King of Wei was afraid that after the Holy Lord heard about it, he would ask something unfavorable to him from Liu Xian's mouth, so he had the wrong idea for a while? ”

Ding Can nodded his hand, motioned for Ah Li to sit down on the side, and said: "Qi is here, the collusion between King Wei and Liu Xian has been revealed in front of others, no matter how much you cover it up, you can't hide it from the eyes and ears of the saint, why should the king of Wei take a risk and do anything to anger the saint." He has only just released the person who is imprisoned, even if he has this thought, he does not have the courage for a while. ”

Ah Li suddenly realized, and said in surprise: "It's not him, is it the King of Jin?" --- a few days ago, King Jin's people have been staring at Liu Xian, and the collusion between King Wei and Liu Xian was also exposed by him... But none of us have ever been aware of such secrets, so how did King Jin see the clues? ”

"Then you have to ask King Jin himself. The last time Dingzhou was relieved, the King of Wei had already suffered a loss, and this time it was the King of Jin who had the upper hand. ”

"But why did King Jin kill Liu Xian? His purpose has already been achieved, so why bother. ”

Ding Can's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled clearly: "He is trying to make an example of chickens and monkeys, so that all those who cling to King Wei can see what fate he will end up with in the future." ”

Ah Li couldn't help but smack his tongue, "King Jin is so big-minded... Master, it's still your vision that is accurate. ”

Ding Can and Ah Li were talking, but their eyes always stayed on Lu Jiayue's face.

The little girl sat quietly and motionless, holding the scroll in her arms.

is very well-behaved, as if everything around her has nothing to do with her.

But he still caught a look of horror in her clear and agile eyes.

She must have felt scared at this point.

He didn't know what urgent matter Ah Li had, but there was no point in letting Lu Jiayue avoid it. But he didn't expect this matter to be related to King Jin, he thought about it, thinking that it would be good for Lu Jiayue to hear it, a boudoir woman like her must think that King Jin was just a modest gentleman with good looks, so he wanted her to see the true face of a self-proclaimed prince under the dispute of imperial power.

It's actually a bit cruel to her.

The person who entrusts his own body, removing all the gorgeous appearances, turns out to be just an ambition to fight for power and profit.

Ding Can was silent for a moment, and asked Ah Li softly: "What does the saint say about this case?" ”

Ah Li said: "The holy oracle asked you to enter the palace tomorrow, presumably this case will still be handed over to you to investigate." ”

Ding Can sighed, quite helpless.

"The saint is like a mirror in his heart, he will decide that it is either the king of Wei or the king of Jin, and he will not be around the two of them, let me check... If I really hand over the King of Jin, what can the Holy Lord do to him? It was always father and son, so that it would not take his life, and in the end, it was all up to me to be this wicked person, so boring. ”

Which prince didn't have the idea of entering the East Palace? Born in the royal family, such a thought is understandable, but if he acts too much in order to compete for the crown and the heir, and stirs up turmoil in the court, as the commander of the Golden Feather Guard, he has a duty on his body, and he can't sit idly by.

What's more, it seems that the court seems to be calm now, but in fact, there is an undercurrent.

The trivial things in the past, as long as they are harmless, open one eye and close one eye, it will be over.

Now it's time to have to deal with it with all your might.

Ding Can pondered for himself, and said with a smile on the side: "Then the master should be perfunctory first, if you want to blame, you can only blame those princes, seeing that the saint is getting older and the storage seat in the East Palace is vacant, he is restless one after another." ”

After a pause, he smiled again: "The Holy Lord has only released King Wei's seclusion and let him return to the court, but it's only been a few days, and Liu Xian has secretly colluded with him, and I don't know how the Holy Lord will punish King Wei." ”

The matter has been explained, and after Ah Li goes, Lu Jiayue will also go back to the room.

Before leaving, he also said: "If the second uncle wants to enter the palace tomorrow, you don't have to send me, I'll go back by myself." ”

Ding Canben still had something to say to her, but seeing her uncertain expression, she didn't have the heart to listen to whatever she said at this time.

And so it was over.

*

Lu Jiayue was already hanging on to the news from King Jin's side, and when she heard that Liu Xian was killed, she was shocked and inexplicable.

So he did not sleep all night.

Before dawn, she got up and asked the two maids to pack her clothes, had breakfast at will, and then went to Ding Can's room to inform her, and then left.

The little maid said that Ding Can was waiting for her in the front yard.

When she came to the gate of the front yard, Ding Can was riding on a horse, and a carriage was prepared for her.

Looking at it like this, Ding Can planned to send her back in person.

"Second uncle, if you still want to go to the palace, don't send me." Lu Jiayue was afraid that Ding Can's entry into the palace would be delayed.

Ding Can smiled and said: "Don't be in a hurry at this time, I'm just afraid that the early dynasty has not dispersed at this time, and it will be in vain to wait for --- to go, I must see you enter the gate of Qufu with my own eyes, so I can rest assured." ”

He was just an ordinary elder caring for the junior, but the tone in that sentence sounded like he wanted to talk, and Lu Jiayue felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

didn't care about it at the moment, got into the carriage, and sent him back to Qufu.

got out of the carriage in front of Qufu, said goodbye to him in a hurry, returned to Chuntang Residence, first sent someone to pass Xiaoshun and Xiaocheng in, and then found the purple jade dragon pattern pendant that King Jin gave her that day, and quietly hid it in his sleeve.

The two little guys came in, and they always had to wait for a while, so Lu Jiayue casually asked about the situation in Xin Zhu's recent Qu Mansion.

Xin Zhu smiled: "Everything is fine, it's just that the old lady and the eldest lady are tied to Miss, and Miss Yingbiao is also talking about no one to accompany her to do needlework..."
