In fact, no matter whether he should be down or not, his spearhead will be pointed at himself.

Chu Ruojun smiled, and there was no reason to shirk it at this time, so she had to respond: "It's a blessing to be able to fight with the Great Commander, I will teach it at any time." ”

"That's good." The corners of the Grand Commander's mouth pursed into a straight line, and a cold gaze faintly crossed her face, and he turned to leave.

The Snow Moon Palace finally returned to its former tranquility, and the palace maid looked up at Chu Ruojun's calm side face, and her heart was also beating a drum.

Chu Ruojun returned to the house, blew out the lamp, and took off her clothes and slept as if nothing happened.

Yet she had no sleep all night.

This night, the palace also did not sleep.

The Grand Commander carefully inquired about the forbidden army guarding the Snow Moon Palace, and everyone said that they were the same as before, and they did not notice anything unusual.

The palace was still searching for the assassin, and the commander concluded that the assassin had not escaped from the palace, and the only answer to the fact that the assassin had not been arrested in the past few days was that the assassin was a person in the palace, and the news that the assassin was hiding in the harem quickly spread, and the seemingly calm harem was hiding imminent waves.

The commander of the forbidden army defended the palace, and he was not to be blamed for an accident under him.

But he is a rough man and does not know how to investigate the case, and the emperor also summoned one of the four major arresters in the imperial city, Yang Arrest to investigate the case thoroughly.

The woman with the severed finger who had fought the assassin had naturally been interrogated several times, her palms tied with a thick white cloth, oozing bits of purple-red blood.

The severed finger was determined to be Chu Ruojun, because only she and Lin Changtian escaped from under her, and the rest of the people who had seen her palm were all dead, and that figure was obviously not Lin Changtian.

The eyes of the great commander flashed with a faint light, and a doubt rose in his heart, there was an assassin assassination in the middle of the night, could it be just a lie of the conspiracy between the Empress Dowager Liu and her guards, and no one saw the figure of the assassin, the guards in charge of the pursuit that night did not even look at the corners of their clothes, it was snowing heavily that day, and there was no mark on the snow, is it possible that the Empress Dowager Shao and the severed finger conspired to frame it.

If you say that, it would explain why you can't catch the Assassins these days, because the Assassins don't exist at all, it's a lie.

And the murder weapon was just a sharpened branch, and he frowned when he took the branch, how could ordinary people use a branch if they want to assassinate, is it ..... He simply doesn't have any other weapons?

This branch is also found in all palaces, and it is not uncommon for it to be planted everywhere in the palace.

Except for knowing that the assassin was familiar with the severed finger, assuming that Chu Ruojun was the real murderer, and that Chu Ruojun could be investigated in depth, there was little progress in the entire case.

Yang Yu took a deep breath, felt a little stuffy in his chest, and decided to go to visit Chu Ruojun first.

But to see Chu Ruojun, you must have the emperor's permission, so when he asked the emperor, Shen Yi was a little surprised, but the accident seemed to have been expected, "Do you think this matter is related to Chu Ruojun?" ”

"The minister thinks that the Chu family has a motive to assassinate the queen mother, and he understands that he has no weapons."

"That's it." Shen Yi couldn't help but nodded, "There is some truth in what you said. ”

He pondered for a moment, his fingers lightly tapped the tabletop, and when he lifted it up, he said lightly: "I am accurate." ”

Yang Zhu quickly got the word, did not dare to delay, and went directly to the Snow Moon Palace.

Chu Ruojun sat under the tree in the courtyard and made a pot of tea, and sat on the felt leisurely wearing a Xuanhu fur.

Opposite her was a middle-aged man in light clothes, his calm face was quite solemn, but he still had a sense of arrogance, and he sat down in front of me without waiting for Chu Ruojun to speak.

The palace maid made a cup of tea and pushed it in front of him, and then he didn't speak, but took it and drank it slowly.

Chu Ruojun stretched out her hand, gently slid her fingertips on the rim of the cup, stared at the tea in the cup, and said slowly, "Who are you?" ”

"A catch."

"It's not a good thing to come to the door." Chu Ruojun laughed coldly and looked at him with some sarcasm.

Yang Yu quickly raised his eyes and looked at her, "What I came to you for, you know it in your heart." ”

Chu Ruojun laughed: "The assassin's business." ”

Then he looked at Yang Zhukuai's face fixedly, and after a long time, he moved his lips stiffly, and said: "Why did you arrest people, anyway, it's not to do justice, if arresting the murderer is everything, regardless of any hidden circumstances behind it, then I have a case from four years ago..... Oh, no, it's been five years soon, and the human and physical evidence of the year is readily available, and the murderer is right in front of him, will he be arrested soon? ”

Yang Zhu quickly bowed his head, he didn't look as majestic as he was just now, his face seemed to have been blown by the wind and snow, and his whole face froze.

"Heh....." Chu Ruojun laughed sadly.

"If I had been ten years ago, I would have been desperate to catch the real culprit, even if I was broken and I had to stick to the justice in my heart." A cold smile floated on Yang Zhukuai's lips, "Later, I learned that as a catcher, there is no truth in many things. ”

Chu Ruojun carried the teapot to refill a cup of tea for herself, Yang Zhuhai looked at her, frowned slightly, and suddenly used a palm and went straight towards her.

All this was too sudden, and the palace maids standing on the side didn't have time to exclaim, and the palm wind swept in front of Chu Ruojun.

The thought of dodging or taking it flashed through his mind like a spark, and he made a choice in only a moment, pretending to be too late to react, and took the palm stiffly.

Fortunately, Yang Zhukuai was just a temptation, and he didn't really want to hurt her, Chu Ruojun snorted at Yang Zhukuai with a pale face.

The palace maid screamed and held Chu Ruojun, looked at Yang Zhukuai in surprise, and asked, "What is this doing, it's not good to catch assassins, but what are you doing to hurt the girl?" ”

A touch of confusion flashed in Yang Zhu's eyes, it stands to reason that Chu Ruojun could reach out to block his palm.

Chu Ruojun's face was pale, she buried her head in the arms of the palace maid and trembled, and her voice was very low: "Help me go back." ”

The palace maid couldn't see it, but it didn't mean that she could escape Yang Zhukuai's eyes, she reacted too quickly, she could completely avoid or separate it with her hands, but she took this palm with her shoulder.

However, this time Yang Zhukuai suddenly felt that he had done something wrong, and the emperor asked him to investigate the case and did not let him do it, which is equivalent to executing a person without any evidence, and there is a suspicion of being beaten into a forced palace.

He wanted to compare the wound on the palm of the severed finger from the way Chu Ruojun took over, but it was not so easy, she was very smart, so she could avoid the confrontation with the Grand Commander on the grounds of recuperating from the injury.

The palace maid helped Chu Ruojun back to the house, Yang Zhuhai looked at her back, and a faint smile was hooked at the corner of her lips, but her acting skills were not very good.

He had no choice but to sigh and leave the Snow Moon Palace silently.

Without waiting for the slave to report, Yang Zhu quickly went to the emperor to ask for the guilt, this is the emperor's top person, he didn't dare to wait for the emperor to find out, summon him into the palace to reprimand.

Shen Yi's face turned white, and his cold gaze swept to Yang Zhukuai, "What clues can you find from the Snow Moon Palace?" ”

Even if he suspected the Chu family, but there was no evidence, how could he report the emperor with unfounded suspicions.

Yang Chukuai lowered his head and said exceptionally calmly: "No." ”

"Yang Zhukuai really lives up to my expectations." Shen Yi's voice was still the same, but it was mixed with a bit of mockery.

"You go down, you continue to be responsible for this case."

Yang Zhu's throat was choked, and he said in his heart, if he didn't solve the case, but injured Miss Chu for no reason, I am afraid that he would be punished, but he could only respond stubbornly: "The minister obeys the order." ”

After he went down, Shen Yi rubbed his eyebrows, and his voice was slightly hoarse and weak, "I'll go see her." ”

"Your Majesty ....." Lian Ying wanted to say something, but after a pause, there was no follow-up.

Chu Ruojun was nesting in the quilt with her eyes open in a daze, the imperial doctor came to see her, and only said that she was fine, just a wound of skin and flesh, and it would be good to recuperate slowly, but seeing that she was very afraid of cold, she prescribed some things to nourish her body and replenish qi and blood, saying that it had the effect of promoting blood.

"The emperor has arrived—"

The palace maid immediately knelt down to greet her, Chu Ruojun was stunned, but turned her face to the side of the bed, and slept as if she hadn't heard it.

Shen Yi only felt funny when he saw her like this, and motioned to the palace maid to flatten herself, her eyes full of smiles.

"How is Ruojun's injury?" The light in Shen Yi's eyes was worried and profound.

"Back to the emperor, the imperial doctor said that it was fine."

Shen Yi was silent for a long time before he whispered, "Is she asleep?" ”

The palace maid hesitated for a moment and nodded lightly.

Chu Ruojun knew that these words were for her.

Shen Yi bent the corners of his eyes, couldn't help chuckling, and slowly walked to the side of the bed, his eyes looking at her side face softly.

A hand got into the quilt and gently held her hand, Chu Ruojun's body stiffened, and she subconsciously wanted to shake off his hand, but she held back and didn't move.

The two of them were in a stalemate like this, Chu Ruojun pretended to be very hard, Shen Yi was also very uncomfortable, no one could wake up a person who was pretending to be asleep no matter what.

"Ruojun, Happy New Year." The man's fluttering voice sounded in her ears, Chu Ruojun only felt that her heart was sour, and her eyelashes trembled violently, this year, she was really not happy at all, and she hoped that the next year would be better.

Shen Yi only felt funny when she looked at her appearance, it stands to reason that a person like her who practices martial arts, she will wake up when someone comes to her in her sleep, and she is really full of flaws in pretending to be like this.

His Adam's apple rolled, and a shadow fell, and the warm flap of his lips fell on her smooth forehead.

She still didn't move.

The man smiled lightly, withdrew his hand, gently tucked the corners of the quilt for her, looked at her one last time with a smile, and quietly left.

Chu Ruojun, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, listened to the sound of the door closing, as well as the sound of his footsteps gradually moving away, the corners of his mouth outlined a shallow smile, and drank white gas in the cold air: "Happy New Year." ”

Say it to yourself.
