Not long after, the guards rushed to hear the news and sent the emperor and Liu Suiyan back to the villa in a carriage.

Before leaving, the Emperor handed over the investigation of the Assassins to Xie Yulin.

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated, and I must know who the real culprit is behind the scenes!"

Xie Yulin bowed his hand: "Brother Chen's order." ”

Because of the assassination of the emperor, the hunting thing was naturally over.

Xie Yulin asked the shadow guard to send Ruan Mianmian back to the villa, while he stayed at the scene to investigate the assassins.

……

Word of the emperor's assassination soon spread.

The whole Akiyama was terrified by this.

A lot happened in Akiyama that night.

Someone was caught, someone was killed.

The boundless night hides a lot of unknown blood and conspiracy.

But none of this has anything to do with Ruan Mianmian.

She was dozing off by the small stove, like a chicken pecking rice, her head pointing down.

Xie Yulin pushed the door and walked in, and what he saw was exactly such a scene.

The little guy behind him was about to speak.

Xie Yulin immediately raised his hand and motioned for him not to speak.

The little guy retreated silently and playfully.

Xie Yulin walked up to Ruan Mianmian's side and gently placed his hand on the top of her head.

Ruan Mianmian immediately woke up.

She raised her head and saw clearly that the man in front of her was the prince, and quickly stood up: "Prince, you are back." ”

Xie Yulin said softly: "Didn't you say that you should rest on your own and don't have to wait for me?" ”

Ruan Mianmian: "You haven't drunk the medicine yet, the slave family must guard the stove and don't let the medicine burn dry." ”

"This kind of thing just needs to be done by the next person."

"This medicine is very important to you, and the slave family is not at ease to give it to others."

She poured the decoction from the clay pot into the bowl and handed it to Xie Yulin with both hands.

"Lord Wang, please drink the medicine."

Xie Yulin took the bowl, and the hot decoction went down to his stomach, although the taste was still as bitter as before, but it made his whole person warm.

It's like a traveler who has been adrift on the sea for a long time and has finally found a harbor where he can anchor.

He felt the warmth of home in her.

Xie Yulin looked at the woman in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

Ruan Mianmian tried to ask, "Is there an eyebrow about the assassin?" ”

Xie Yulin: "I found a silver ticket on the assassin's body. ”

"It's just a silver ticket, what does it have to do with this case?"

"Those silver tickets are all from the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Ruan Mianmian was stunned: "You mean, those assassins were instructed by Prime Minister Liu......"

Xie Yulin: "I have already presented the evidence to the imperial brother, and the imperial brother ordered someone to take Prime Minister Liu Cheng into custody, and when he returns to Beijing, he will be imprisoned in Dali Temple." ”

"What did Prime Minister Liu say?"

"He has been crying out for injustice and does not admit that he ordered someone to assassinate His Majesty."

Ruan Mianmian looked at him: "Do you think Prime Minister Liu Cheng is really the mastermind behind the assassination of His Majesty?" ”

"The matter is still under investigation, and I don't know what the outcome will be."

Xie Yulin touched her hair: "It's not too early, hurry up and rest." ”

"Hmm."

Tonight, the two of them shared the same bed, but they didn't do anything.

Just sleep together peacefully.

Xie Yulin felt that at this moment, they were unprecedentedly close.

He hugged the woman in his arms tightly, wishing that the years would be well.

I hope that we will grow old together.

……

Early the next morning, Xie Yulin was called away by someone sent by the emperor.

Ruan Mianmian was the only one left in the room.

She crossed Erlang's legs, snorting melon seeds while chatting with the system.

At this moment, the guard walked in and said respectfully: "An Niangzi, there are people outside who ask to see the prince." ”

Ruan Mianmian: "The prince went out, and no one will come back for a while, so you let him come back later." ”

"Yes."

It didn't take long for the guards to return.

He said, "My subordinate has already relayed your words to that person, but she still doesn't want to leave, and insists on staying here and waiting for the prince to return." ”

Ruan Mianmian waved his hand: "Let him be." ”

After a while, as if she had thought of something, she suddenly stopped the guard again.

"Wait a minute, who is the guest who came to find the prince outside?"

Guard: "It's a little maid." ”

Little girl?

Ruan Mianmian was a little interested, she stood up: "You take me to see." ”

"Yes."

Ruan Mianmian followed the guard to the living room and saw the little maid.

The little maid looked Ruan Mianmian up and down, and asked suspiciously, "May I ask who you are?" ”

Ruan Mianmian smiled slightly: "I am the maid next to the prince, the prince is not at home, what can you tell me, I will tell the prince when I turn around." ”

"No, my young lady said that the matter is very important, and you must tell the prince in person, and you can't fake it."

Since the other party said so, Ruan Mianmian will not be strong: "Then whatever you want." ”

Ruan Mianmian returned to the bedroom and continued to knock her melon seeds and peanuts.

"Sansan, who do you think sent this little maid?"

System 233: "It must be the heroine." ”

Ruan Mianmian nodded: "I also think it should be Liu Suiyan." ”

It wasn't until noon that Xie Yulin came back.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard someone talk about the little maid.

When the little maid saw King Lin coming, she immediately curtsied: "The slave and maid pay homage to the prince." ”

Xie Yulin knew her: "You are the maid next to Concubine Liu?" ”

The little maid bowed: "The slave maid is called Baozhu, and it is the concubine Niangniang who sent the slave maid to find you." ”

"What do you command?"

Baozhu took out a letter from her bosom: "This is what the mother asked the slave to pass to you, and everything she wants to say is written in the letter." ”

Xie Yulin took the letter, but he didn't mean to open it.

He smiled and said, "It's not too early, this king is going to eat, please forgive this king for not being able to entertain you anymore." ”

Baozhu hurriedly said: "The prince is polite, now that the letter has been delivered, the slave's task has been completed, and now I have to go back to restore my life, and the slave and maid will leave." ”

Xie Yulin tucked the envelope into his sleeve and walked to the backyard.

Ruan Mianmian saw that he was back, and hurriedly patted off the melon seed skin on his body, got up and saluted: "Meet the prince." ”

Xie Yulin took her hand: "It's all said, you don't need to salute me in private." ”

After he sat down, Ruan Mianmian poured him tea and asked curiously, "Is the prince done?" ”

Xie Yulin: "I can only say that it has come to an end for the time being, and I still have to be busy after returning to Shengjing." ”

"Is it about assassination?"

"Well, the assassination of Your Majesty is a major matter, and Your Majesty entrusts me with this matter and lets me investigate it thoroughly."

Ruan Mianmian was a little worried: "Your body is not good, you shouldn't work too hard, don't force yourself, do what you can." ”

For her care, Xie Yulin is very useful.

He replied softly, "I know." ”

After lunch, Ruan Mianmian accompanied Xie Yulin to take a lunch break.

While untying his shirt, a letter fell out of his sleeve.

Ruan Mianmian bent down to pick up the letter, there was no writing on the envelope, but a faint fragrance could be faintly smelled.

She deliberately sent the letter to Xie Yulin: "Which woman sent a love letter to the prince?" ”
