In the imperial study, Song Jinyan looked at the person in front of him without saying a word, with an expressionless face on his face.

When Bai Yao saw Song Jinyan's expression, he was even more uneasy, and he couldn't help but bow down even more, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the death of Commander Su is indeed very strange, and the ministers don't know why there are people from the Blood Alliance involved. It's just that now all the clues point to the Blood Alliance......"

Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows, noncommittal to Bai Yao's words.

Bai Yao's heart trembled, he knelt on one knee, gritted his teeth and said to Song Jinyan: "The last general knows that this matter is very strange, and I ask the emperor to give the last general another three days, and the last general will definitely find out whether this matter has anything to do with the Blood Alliance." ”

Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly, this Bai Yaodao is indeed a rare honest person. After a pause, Song Jinyan spoke: "Commander Bai, do you remember that day, the person with a mask appeared in the palace?" ”

Bai Yao was stunned for a moment and nodded.

Song Jinyan continued: "One night outside the Kou Mansion, Commander Bai also chased a man in black, I wonder if Commander Bai remembers? ”

Bai Yao was stunned and exclaimed: "Could it be that these two people are the same person?" Frowning and thinking carefully about the martial arts and tricks of the two people, the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and he raised his head to meet Song Jinyan's sure eyes.

After a pause, Song Jinyan continued: "This person's name is Lan Haoke. I suspect that the real master behind the Blood Alliance is Lan Haoke. ”

Bai Yao was even more puzzled: "But it's good, why did the Blood Alliance attack Commander Su." Bai Yao didn't know Lan Haoke's true identity, and he didn't know about the Su family and Lanlingguo's past festivals.

Song Jinyan waved his hand and said lightly: "This matter will not be mentioned, the future affairs of Commander Su will be ordered to be buried well, if there are no other doubts in this case, General Bai will transfer it to Dali Temple as soon as possible to close the case." ”

Bai Yao was puzzled, but he didn't dare to say no, so he could only nod and say, "Yes." Just as he opened his mouth to retreat, he heard a knock at the door.

"Tuk-tuk-"

"Your Majesty, the queen asks to see you." Su Peiyuan's voice came respectfully from outside the door.

Song Jinyan opened his mouth to let people in, and as soon as the words fell, he saw Kou Shu wearing a red pleated skirt, with two pure gold nine-tailed phoenix hairpins on her head and slowly pushing the door in.

Seeing Song Jinyan, Kou Shu took the lead in saluting: "I've seen the emperor." ”

Song Jinyan frowned, the imperial study was the place where he discussed the state affairs of the previous dynasty, and he ordered the palace concubine several times not to enter the palace at will, and Lan Ruoxuan was able to enter the imperial study every day that day, because he wanted to know what Lan Ruoxuan wanted to do. Now that things have been figured out, Song Jinyan doesn't want the concubine to interfere too much in politics.

Sinking his face, Song Jinyan's voice was cold: "Why did the queen come to the imperial study?" ”

Kou Shu didn't answer directly, and said, "The concubine heard that the emperor is investigating the tragic death of Commander Su?" ”

As soon as Song Jinyan raised his chin slightly, Bai Yao bowed his head respectfully and said, "Returning to the queen, it's true." ”

"How's it going?" Kou Shu looked at Bai Yao with a smile and asked.

Bai Yao showed a hint of hesitation on his face, but when he saw Kou Shu smiling slightly, his face was a little more confident, and he said, "Commander Bai found out that Su Jingzhi Su Commander, but he was killed by the people in the Blood Alliance?" ”

Bai Yao was stunned for a moment, looking at Song Jinyan a little bewildered, feeling that he was not admitting it, nor was he denying it.

A hint of discoloration flashed in Song Jinyan's eyes, he thought for a moment, and said: "Kou Yunwu's death is also related to the Blood Alliance, so the queen also knows about the Blood Alliance. After a pause, Song Jinyan turned to face Kou Shu: "If the queen has anything to say, just say it." ”

Kou Shu curled her lips slightly, a trace of unknown color flashed in her eyes, and then she spoke: "Please decree that the whole city wants Lan Haoke." ”

"Wanted?" Song Jinyan frowned.

Bai Yao was stunned for a moment, stepped forward and said: "Queen Mother, the process of the wanted criminal is complicated, you need to report to the criminal department first, and the painter will draw the appearance of the wanted criminal and confirm it repeatedly, and then ......"

Kou Shu ignored Bai Yao's words, turned her head to look at Song Jinyan, and said with a smile: "What does the emperor think of this move?" ”

Song Jinyan frowned slightly, and wanted to speak, but suddenly heard Bai Yao shout violently: "Who is outside?" Ignoring Song Jinyan and Kou Shu, who were still standing in the imperial study, he rushed out of the door with an arrow step. I only heard gusts of wind coming from outside the door, and it was obvious that someone was carrying light work and was hurrying.

"It's someone from Concubine Lan's palace." Kou Shu raised her eyebrows and spoke lightly.

"Well," Song Jinyan nodded imperceptibly, looked at Kou Shu approvingly, and said, "It's the girl named Shuangying next to Lan Ruoxuan." That girl's kung fu is good. Have a fight with the one next to you. ”

"Yuan Yun?" There was a hint of surprise in Kou Shu's tone, and then she nodded with relief, Lan Ruoxuan now has so many strange people around her, and she has an older brother inexplicably. In addition to the traces of the Lanling people in the palace that Concubine Shu said before, these two brothers and sisters must have an inextricable relationship with the Lanling Kingdom that has been destroyed. If this is the case, it is not surprising that Lan Ruoxuan has one or two masters by her side.

Gently picking up the tea in his hand, Song Jinyan took a sip slowly, only to feel that his lips and teeth were fragrant, and then spoke: "The queen is so anxious to arrest Lan Haoke, can't she wait?" After a pause, Song Jinyan continued: "It's an eventful time in the palace now, and we haven't found out who is behind Lan Ruoxuan, if you start rashly now, I'm afraid it's not the right time." ”

"It's because it's not the right time for us to do it." Kou Shu raised her head, her eyes looked directly at Song Jinyan, and through a pair of eyes, Song Jinyan couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the raging flames burning inside.

Song Jinyan nodded: "Indeed, we haven't found out the person behind Lan Ruoxuan for a long time, and the clue to Kou Yunwu's case has been broken." This time it was unexpected, if you can catch you off guard, you may indeed be able to find some new clues. ”

"What's more—" Kou Shu's voice was as sharp and sharp as a sharp knife: "Bai Yao searched Lan Haoke everywhere, and those bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods in the palace probably won't be able to sit still." ”

Song Jinyan closed his eyes slightly, fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he opened his eyes, nodded and said: "What the queen said also makes sense, then according to the queen's wishes, let Bai Yao go and search the whole city." ”

"Okay," Kou Shu curled the corners of her mouth, and there was a smile in her eyes.

Because of Song Jinyan's opening, the next day, the news that Lan Haoke assassinated the imperial court official and Su Jingzhi, the commander of the capital patrol, spread all over the streets and alleys. At the entrance of the imperial city, a portrait of Lan Haoke was posted, but only half of his face was posted.
