On this day, Mao Leyan was riding a bicycle with Zhao Zhenyu in Mao Yuan, Zhao Zhenyu was still riding the bicycle for half an hour, Mao Leyan saw that he was riding so comfortably, and rushed to ride, Zhao Zhenyu didn't die, and supported the bicycle and said confidently: "Since I came to Mao Yuan to eat and live, I have gained a lot of weight, and if I don't do sports, do you think I won't be able to take a girl in the future?" ”

Mao Le was speechless, and he was stunned for a while: "There is a good reason, you continue." "It's a big life event to take a girl, how can she stop it?

Xiao Shu walked over and said, "Miss, the prince is here, waiting for you in the main hall." ”

Mao Leyan wiped the sweat on his forehead and asked with some surprise: "He's here?" Can I help you? ”

Xiao Shu smiled: "How do I know, just look at his expression is a little dignified, I'm afraid something happened, right?" ”

Mao Leyan's heart sank slightly when he heard this, and said, "I'll go over immediately!" With that, he hurried to the main hall.

King Qing was sitting in the main hall and sighed, and when he saw Mao Leyan coming, he cleaned up the sadness on his face and squeezed out a smile, "You're here?" ”

Mao Leyan looked at his fake smile and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

King Qing smiled lightly: "Nothing happened, everything is fine." ”

Mao Leyan frowned and said, "You see how hypocritical your smile is?" What happened to you! ”

King Qing sighed, "I really guessed it, Rui'er has been a little uncomfortable recently, and this king is just worried." "Rui'er is the child born to Concubine Ning, and now she is raised under Concubine Lin's name.

"No, you must have something to hide from me." Mao Leyan looked at him suspiciously, "You are all busy making cigarettes during this time, if something didn't happen, why would you come to me?" ”

King Qing smiled reluctantly, "It's as if this king must have something to do with you, do you really want something to happen?" ”

The more Mao Leyan saw him like this, the more uneasy she felt in her heart, but if he didn't say it, she couldn't force him to say it, so she had to sigh and say: "That's it, if you can't believe me, if you don't tell me, wouldn't it seem like I'm troublesome if I ask again?" ”

King Qing frowned and looked at her, "Where did this king say that you are troublesome?" You're getting more and more suspicious right now, and it's fine. ”

Xiao Shu came in to add tea and said with a smile: "Miss cares about the prince, and the prince is not allowed to say this about the princess." ”

King Qing also smiled, but his handsome face was still filled with a faint layer of sadness, "You see, even Xiao Shu is so unruly, even this king dares to accuse." ”

Mao Leyan smiled and said angrily: "Xiao Shu is clearly not accusing you, she was kind enough to pass on my kindness, but you yourself are too careful." ”

King Qing sneered lightly, "You master and servant are connected, where can this king say anything about you?" He looked at the sky, hesitated for a moment and said: "This king still has something to do, this time I just came to see you, you have nothing to do, then this king will leave." ”

"What will happen to me?" Mao Leyan asked strangely, he had just arrived, and he immediately said that he was leaving, coupled with a different look, he was hesitant, he wanted to say but didn't want to say, she expected that something must have happened, "Did something happen?" ”

King Qing waved his hand, "It's okay, don't talk about it, this king is gone!" With that, he left in a hurry, as if he was afraid that Mao Leyan would continue to ask.

Mao Leyan looked at his back and asked Xiao Shu thoughtfully: "Xiao Shu, do you think there is anything wrong with the prince today?" ”

Xiao Shu tilted his head and said: "It's very different, the prince seems to have something on his mind, just when he came, he sat here, his face was very solemn." But when you ask him, Miss, he says it's all right, it's strange. ”

"You think it's weird, don't you?" Mao Leyan smiled faintly, with a hint of meaning, "Two possibilities, the first one, something really happened." Second, he doesn't know what tricks to play. ”

Xiao Shu frowned and said: "The prince is upright, many words are straightforward, and he rarely plays tricks, thinking about it, something is really wrong." Miss, why don't I go to the palace and ask. ”

Mao Leyan thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, you can go." ”

I don't know why, Mao Leyan always felt that his heart was panicked, and he always thought that something was wrong, and there was a kind of depression that the mountain rain was about to come. In this dynasty, there are probably not many people who can make King Qing so nervous. Suddenly remembering the man sitting in the middle of the temple, his heart suddenly jumped a few times, and his hands and feet began to tremble slightly.

Xiao Shu came back with the answer, and she said solemnly: "I asked Ashin about it, and Ashin said that the emperor met an assassin and was seriously injured. ”

Mao Leyan only felt her head explode with a bang, she grabbed Xiao Shu's wrist and asked urgently, "Does it matter?" ”

Xiao Shu said: "It matters, but now there is no danger to life." ”

Mao Leyan breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and hurriedly rushed to the palace.

King Qing was dealing with business in the study, and when he saw her coming in in in a hurry, his eyebrows darkened, although everything seemed to go according to his plan, but he couldn't help but feel sad when he saw that she knew that the emperor had been assassinated.

"Who did it?" As soon as Mao Leyan entered the door, he asked, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" ”

King Qing lowered his head lightly and said with some annoyance, "You know what can you do?" The emperor has already been injured, and the assassins have not yet been caught, so it is not known how they managed to infiltrate the palace. ”

Mao Leyan raised his eyebrows, "They? How many assassins were there? "Generally, the assassins who infiltrate the palace are single and alone, because many people can't get in, but if the other party can blend in more than one person, it proves that there must be an internal response.

"Five, they are bound to win this time, that's why they are so desperate." Qingwang Road.

Mao Leyan frowned and said: "There are five more assassins in the palace for no reason, and they can assassinate the emperor so accurately, which proves that they know the emperor's whereabouts well, do they have an internal response?" ”

"At present, it has only been found that the concubine and the assassin colluded, and as for which concubine, it has not been found. You also know that most of the concubine's family members are the daughters and sisters of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, and if there is real evidence, they will arrest people, but without real evidence, everything can only be investigated secretly. He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's just that it's not easy to investigate, because the harem is a forbidden place for men, even if we strengthen the patrol and supervision of the guards, but once the other party colludes with the guards, we can't find out." ”

Mao Leyan said solemnly: "If this inner ghost is not found out for a day, the emperor will not be safe for a day, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be a larger-scale assassination operation next time." Are you going to just wait like this and do nothing? ”

"This king and Mo Li mean that they want to find a shrewd woman from the martial arts to mix in the palace as a concubine, and let her investigate on their behalf, after all, there are many things in the deep palace, and it is not convenient for this king or the guards to act to investigate. It's just that looking at the martial arts, there is no credible person, and now he is worried. King Qing sighed.

Mao Leyan was stunned for a moment, "Looking for a woman to enter the palace as a concubine?" ”

King Qing nodded and said, "Yes, Mo Li's idea is that although the triennial selection has not yet arrived, it can be borrowed to extend the royal heirs, so the selection will be advanced, and then arrange for many ministers in the court to enter the palace with this martial arts woman, so as to hide people's eyes and ears, although there is a struggle between the concubine and the concubine, but it is just to compete for favor, and will not beware of others, so that it will be convenient for our people to do things." He deliberately said that it was Mo Li's idea, not because he wanted to stay out of the incident in the future, but he felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to admit that he was also involved.

If you want to send the woman you love to other men, no matter how tolerant you are, you won't be calm and calm.

Mao Leyan was silent for a moment, looked at him and asked, "Then, have you found this person?" ”

King Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Where is it so fast?" And even if you find this person, you have to carry out special training for a period of time, after all, women in the rivers and lakes always have the habit of rivers and lakes, Mo Li said, if you want this woman to recognize the ancient prime minister as her father, the daughter of a prime minister, and ask for others, you have to know the truth, right? And martial arts women, most of whom are chivalrous and heroic, sneer at the rules, so they have to be specially trained for a period of time. ”

Mao Leyan said slightly: "The special training has come and gone, and a lot of time has passed, and it will take a while to enter the palace to investigate, what if something happens during this time?" Can't you think of a useful way? ”

King Qing spread his hands and said helplessly: "Then you think, you go and find a woman for this king, meet our requirements, send it to the palace immediately, and the matter will be solved." However, this person must be meticulous and strong in martial arts, because she will face the danger of being exposed at any time and be killed. ”

Mao Leyan didn't make a sound, pulled a chair to sit next to him, took out a washed branch from his arms and put it in his mouth, and then occasionally took it off and exhaled.

King Qing threw her a cigarette pouch, "Smoke!" ”

Mao Leyan waved his hand, "Smoking is harmful to health, and I have quit." After a pause, she raised her head to look at King Qing and asked, "You say, is it okay for me to enter the palace?" ”

Although everything was expected by King Qing, she said it so bluntly, which still made him stunned, and he subconsciously shook his head: "No." ”

Mao Leyan stared at him, "Do you think my ability is insufficient?" ”

"It's not a matter of ability, but this king won't allow you to enter the palace as a concubine, and besides, you also said that you won't marry a man with so many women, although this time it's a show, but in the end it's the emperor's concubine, isn't it against your principles?" King Qing didn't say anything back, but he just felt that since she adhered to her principles so much, now because of the emperor's safety, she gave up so easily, and it was also a prevarication to refuse him before she came.

Mao Leyan looked at him and said: "Principles are dead, people are alive, and appropriate adaptation is the way to behave in the world." ”

Everything went as he expected, but King Qing couldn't be happy, in Mao Leyan's heart, he was not as important as the emperor.

Mo Li learned that Mao Leyan was willing to enter the palace, and finally let go of the big stone in his heart, in fact, the ghost inside the palace is not completely fake, there are indeed ghosts hidden in the palace, otherwise the last time the emperor left the palace, the enemy would not have learned the news so quickly, and besieged it. Mao Leyan may also be a rebel, but he believes that she will not hurt the emperor, because she has had many opportunities to assassinate the emperor, but she has no action, perhaps, she has other plans, but no matter what she wants, as long as she does not hurt the emperor, he has a way to take her for his own use. The situation has developed to such a point that there is no way back.
