Ye Fan's heart moved, and he was ready to go to the palace.

Hao Ziming, Ling Qingshan and other seven or eight prison students shook their heads and sighed, and quickly said goodbye and left, and went back to the national prison, or their respective mansions.

Ye Fan looked back at Qin Yu'er and said apologetically, "It seems that I have to find another time to help you find the Martial Spirit Pill, I will go to the palace first to see what happened in the palace." I'll come back to you again. ”

"Brother Ye Fan, then the three of us will go back first, and wait for your news. ”

Qin Yu'er knew that the affairs of the palace were very important, and it would affect whether this palace test could be held as scheduled.

"Hmm!".

Canglan Palace is located in the north of the royal city and occupies a huge area. Inside and outside the palace, there were countless forbidden guards and were heavily guarded. Especially after the accident in the palace, several times more troops were sent to guard the inside and outside.

Ye Fan came to the gate of the palace.

A general of the forbidden army guarding the royal court saw that Ye Fan was wearing the silver clothes of the prince of the country, and immediately bowed his hand and said: "This Lord Wuhou, the monarch has been ill recently, and he has not seen the foreign ministers, please go back!" Recently, there were many courtiers and prisoners who came to see the monarch, but they were all blocked by him.

"I'm not here to see the monarch, I'm here to see Princess Jiaojiao, and when I get into trouble, I said that Ye Fan, the prisoner of the country, wants to see you!"

Ye Fan said immediately.

If he hadn't known that Princess Jiaojiao was in the royal city, he wouldn't have planned to enter the palace at all. The sudden change in the Canglan Palace is extremely treacherous, and I don't know what forces are involved, so if you don't do it, you will be shattered.

If he wants to intervene in it, only Princess Jiaojiao can help him. Without Princess Jiaojiao's presence, he couldn't interfere in the affairs of the palace.

"Oh, looking for the princess?"

The general of the forbidden army hesitated and sent soldiers to report.

Soon, the soldier returned, and the delicate princess was invited.

Several soldiers took Ye Fan into the palace and went to the Heart Cultivation Hall of the Canglan Palace. The king was recuperating in the palace of the heart, but the ministers could not see him. Princess Jiaojiao, the queen and the others have been living in the side hall of the Heart Cultivation Hall recently, just in case.

In the palace, the forbidden army can also be seen everywhere, with five steps, one post, three steps and one sentry.

Ye Fan was led by several forbidden soldiers and came to the side hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Ling Jiaojiao was already waiting at the door of the side hall, her face was a little haggard, and she couldn't help but smile in surprise when she saw Ye Fan, "Ye Fan, are you back?" I heard you say that you went to practice in other places, but there was no news from you as soon as you went! I sent someone to inquire halfway, but there was no news from you. It's back!"

She hasn't known Ye Fan for a long time, but she has surprising confidence in Ye Fan. Whether it was the ten-boat race in Donglai County or the expedition in the desert of Xiayang County, Ye Fan's incomparably profound knowledge impressed her.

This time there was a big change in the palace, and she also thought of Ye Fan for the first time, and wanted to ask Ye Fan for help to see what the situation was. It's a pity that Ye Fan went to other places to experience and has never been seen.

"I just came back from Yunchuan Kingdom, and not long after I returned to Wangcheng, I heard the news that the monarch was sick, and hurriedly entered the palace to ask for a meeting. Princess, I wonder if there's anything I can do to help?"

Ye Fan said.

"I was looking for your help with this!"

Ling Jiaojiao waved back left and right, and said with a straight face.

"Princess, please. ”

"After last year's birthday, it didn't take long for my father to suddenly age for decades overnight, and then he became more and more sick, and now he often faints. However, none of the imperial physicians could say what the illness was, only that his father was old and about to die.

My mother and I sensed that something was wrong and immediately traced down all the guests at the birthday party, including the birthday gifts they offered, to see if there was any poison hidden in them. But on the day of my father's birthday banquet, almost all the royal family members came, and there were hundreds of princes and princes alone. There are also many court ministers and ministers of various prefectures, and there are so many guests that it is difficult to speculate who will be unfavorable to my father. I have sent people to check all the birthday gifts they offered, and so far no poison has been found.

But my father suddenly became seriously ill after his birthday, and it was impossible for him to suddenly age for no reason. Moreover, all the courtiers and grandchildren inside and outside the palace are suspicious, and I don't even know who to turn to to pursue this case. If a certain prince wants to kill his father and compete for the throne, then it is likely that many ministers will be involved. If they were asked to look up, they couldn't find anything, and I didn't trust them.

But you are different, you have been cultivating in Donglai County before, and you have nothing to do with the princes and grandsons of the royal city. You have only been in the royal city for a month, and before my father's birthday, you went to other places to cultivate, you must not be suspicious...... Another point is that your eyes are very poisonous, and if anyone really wants to harm my father, I believe that they will not be able to escape your eyes. If you can't find out, Princess Ben doesn't know who else can find out!"

Ling Jiaojiao looked at Ye Fan and said seriously.

"Thank you princess for your trust! I am willing to serve the king and queen of the country and investigate this case thoroughly!"

Ye Fan arched his hand.

Ling Jiaojiao nodded with satisfaction, "After my father was critically ill, because he had not set up a crown prince, he was not at ease with the ministers, and he had already ordered his mother to supervise the country. I will ask the Empress Mother to temporarily grant you the post of Lieutenant Shaoqing to investigate this case! No matter who it is, the ministers of the Ling royal family, as long as they find out that they are involved in this case, they will be arrested and interrogated together!"

Her face was a little more cold and iron-blooded.

After speaking, she took Ye Fan into the side hall of the Heart Cultivation Hall and met Queen Canglan.

The queen sat gracefully on the throne, her sad face was no better than Ling Jiaojiao.

"Ye Fan, the prisoner of the country, see the queen!"

Ye Fan glanced at the queen, then lowered his eyebrows and bowed.

"Well, you are Ye Fan, Jiao'er has mentioned it several times, saying that you are extremely talented and a rare genius in Donglai County. When I saw it today, he was really young and promising, and he became a martial marquis when he was nearly twenty years old, which is really rare in the royal city!"

The queen nodded lightly, looked at Ye Fan carefully, and smiled lightly.

"The queen mother, the child suggested that Ye Fanting be given the post of lieutenant Shaoqing, and he should have full authority to thoroughly investigate the murder of his father. ”

Ling Jiaojiao said to the queen.

"This~, he is only in his early twenties, although his martial arts cultivation is outstanding...... I'm just afraid that I don't have enough experience. Those old ministers of the royal court were extremely sleek and thoughtful, and they were extremely difficult to deal with! Moreover, the incident occurred on the day of the birthday banquet, and even a suspect has not been found, and it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find out the murderer. Can he find out anything?"

The queen hesitated.

Her suspicions were not without reason, and she had sent many court ministers to investigate, but she didn't find out anything. The hundreds of experienced imperial doctors in the palace were all at a loss for the king's illness. How could she believe that a martial artist in his twenties would be able to find out something if he made a move.

"The queen mother, the father and the king suddenly fell seriously ill, there must be a joint murder between the prince and the courtiers! The child believes that Ye Fan can find out about this case!"

Ling Jiaojiao said with a firm expression.

"Well, since you insist, then the palace will appoint Ye Fan as the court lieutenant and young secretary, and be fully responsible for the murder of the monarch! Ye Fan, how long do you need to investigate this case?"

Seeing Ling Jiaojiao's insistence, the queen didn't say anything more, looked at Ye Fan and asked.

"About half a month! If you can't find anything in half a month, it's useless to check it for a long time. ”

Ye Fan thought about it and said.

It doesn't take long for him to investigate the case, at most he can let the martyr take a few looks. If you can see it, you will naturally know the result, and if you can't see it, it's useless to check it.

"Half a month?...... Then you let it go and check it! This palace is waiting for your good news, if you can really find out something, even if it is just a half-scale clue, this palace will have a big reward!"

The queen was taken aback.

They have been investigating for almost a year, and so far they have not even had any useful clues, and there is no direction to follow. Ye Fan only said that half a month, and the time for this investigation was too short. Hundreds of royal family relatives and many court ministers can't find out about them in half a month.

"To investigate this case, the minister must first look at the condition of the monarch!"

Ye Fan said.

"Jiao'er, take him to the Palace of Heart Cultivation to see the monarch. Be quiet, don't disturb Your Majesty. ”

The queen nodded.

Ling Jiaojiao took Ye Fan to the Heart Cultivation Hall across the wall.

On the dragon couch in the bedroom of the Heart Cultivation Palace, an old man with white hair was lying on his side, delirious and sleeping, dignified and dignified, it was Ling Rui, the current monarch of the Canglan Kingdom. Dozens of palace maids and eunuchs next to them waited cautiously.

There are also more than a dozen extremely old imperial doctors, who have been guarding the palace and treating the monarch at any time.

The female eunuchs and imperial doctors of the palace saw Princess Jiaojiao coming in and paid their respects one after another.

"No need to be polite! This is the new court lieutenant Shaoqing, come to investigate the case, if you have any questions, you need to fully cooperate!"

Ling Jiaojiao whispered to the imperial doctors.

"Yes!"

All the imperial doctors said one after another, but they were quite unimpressed.

None of their old imperial doctors could see anything, and a mere court lieutenant and young secretary could find out anything.

Ye Fan came to the king's sickbed, saw the monarch's aging face, checked the pulse, and took a blood from the monarch's fingertip to check it.

In the qi and blood, there is very little power of the Yuan Essence!

After a long time, he was silent, got up and walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Ling Jiaojiao followed out suspiciously, "Ye Fan, don't you ask the imperial doctor what clues there are?!"

"No need to ask, the qi and blood are normal, and there is no sign of poisoning and serious illness! The imperial doctors could not find any problems, and that was because the monarch was indeed bedridden for these two reasons. The king's qi and blood have been weakened and his mind is faint, and it is estimated that he will not live long. About a month, he came to an end. ”

Ye Fan shook his head and said.

"Is it true that Father is just dying of old age?"

Ling Jiaojiao couldn't help but be stunned, she couldn't believe it.

"Of course, it's not as simple as dying of old age! Sudden death is also a disease, and it is also a way to die without a trace and not being caught. It seems that among the descendants of the royal family, there are people who want the king to die as soon as possible, so that he can ascend to the throne as soon as possible! The monarch has only one month left to live, and in my estimation, they will start fighting for the throne as soon as the king dies in one month!"

Ye Fan sneered, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"What then? Can you find out who did it?"

Ling Jiaojiao said hurriedly.

"I only know exactly how the monarch died, but there are too many suspects, and I can't find them for a while. But before that, I'll help the monarch renew his life and disrupt the rhythm of those who are secretly plotting a change in the court, so as to buy enough time. ”

Ye Fan said.

"Survival?"

Ling Jiaojiao was shocked.

"Well, all diseases can be cured. If you die of old age, you can continue to live for treatment. Although it can only last for half a year, it is enough to disrupt the plans of those who instigated the change in the palace. Catch them all!"

Ye Fan said indifferently.

He once gave the mammoth Ash's stone egg a life, so that Ash has survived to this day. It was an ancient secret art that had long since disappeared, and almost no one knew how to use it except for the Dead.

Now the monarch can't die immediately, he can only take his own life first, help the monarch continue for half a year, and stabilize the situation in the blue country.
