So for a while, I was a little confused about who the murderer was targeting, was it a horse thief or Hedongdao?

If it is a quest for revenge, then of course it should be directed against horse thieves. However, Xiao Yanhui is more concerned about another possibility.

She is extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. As soon as she approached Liang Hyun under the snow bridge last night, she noticed his abnormality - he had killed people, just now, more than one.

The time is right, the place is right, the motive is very sufficient, the only doubt is whether he has that ability, and Xiao Yanhui believes that he has.

"It's really not like words, an emperor is a dignified emperor, doing such a sneaky thing!" She sat up in her cloak and got up: "Hongying clean up, let's go out to meet someone." ”

"The people from King Ning's Mansion have already left." Uncle Wen hurriedly said, "It was said that King Ning was going to the Li family today, so ......"

"So it's a godsend." Xiao Yan replied.

……

If Hongying knew that the "heaven-sent opportunity" meant to hide from the emperor and King Ning to have a private meeting with the third man, she would definitely try to try to persuade him again.

Instead of just squatting outside the door, as she is doing now, guessing what the two people in the room are doing—Mademoiselle is not really going to step on three boats, is she? It's going to die a miserable death!

……

Xiao Yanhui didn't plan to step on three boats.

The third boat knelt under her feet, and her posture was unusually respectful: "Miss, you have something to send someone below to give orders, why do you risk it yourself...... I think the little emperor is quite jealous. ”

"I said you don't have to bow in front of me." Xiao Yan waved his hand back to let him get up, "Yuanji, the people in our north are not so blind. ”

"Yes." Zhu Yuanji got up as he said, but still arched his hand, and then sat down sideways: "So the eldest lady plans to unite the four or five families in the north to put pressure on the imperial court together?" ”

Xiao Yan shook his head back: "It's far from the time to put pressure on the imperial court." I have come to ask you what you think of several murder cases involving DPRK and Chinese officials in Beijing in the past two years. ”

"The eldest lady also thinks this matter is strange?" Zhu Yuanji's eyes moved slightly, "Earlier, Uncle Wen instructed us to pay attention to the movements of the officials who entered the capital in the feudal town, and I found that there were too many of these people who died in assassination...... But it can't be said that it must be aimed at the feudal town, we also checked later, and the dead are indeed extremely evil, just like that Liu Langzhong last night, his family was born as a horse thief, and it is not unjust to be wiped out. ”

"According to you, this murderer is doing a good deed to clear the gateway to our river east road?" Xiao Yan asked back.

This, Zhu Yuanji smiled bitterly, how is it possible.

"If it is said to get rid of evil, there are too many wicked people in this world." Xiao Yanhui sneered, "If you really check like this, there are not even half of the officials in the DPRK who have clean hands and feet, but aren't most of them alive and well?" ”

It may be true to punish the evil and eliminate the evil, but it is not false to be afraid of the local feudal towns. It is difficult to say whether the assassination of a villain from the feudal town with such fanfare was a clearing of the door for the feudal town, or a deliberate exaggeration of the evil of the feudal town.

It's just a means.

"I originally said that what we do is not on the table, and I didn't expect that the dignified king is also a person in this way." Xiao Yan leaned back on the corner of the table and sneered, "It's really a good match for me." ”

"I will remind our people to be cautious in their words and deeds," Zhu Yuanji said, "by the way, thoroughly investigate the officials from Hadong Province in the DPRK." If there is anything inappropriate, we will try to cut it off in advance, and we will not give it to others like we do now. ”

Xiao Yan bowed his head: "That's how it should be." It's better not to bother others to help catch the moths in your own house. ”

"And," she said, leaving the subject aside, "I have sent a message back, and we are bound to fight for the position of queen." Try to get the word out to the rest of the company as soon as possible so that they don't miss the opportunity. ”

Zhu Yuanji bowed his head in response, and then hesitated, and only after a long time did he carefully ask tentatively: "Miss, what is your plan to enter the palace by yourself...... Is it all going well? I don't think that little emperor seems to be a person who values love and righteousness, and I'm afraid that in the future—"

"Yuanji," Xiao Yanhui interrupted him, "I know what you're worried about. Companion is like a tiger, I won't take it seriously and let the girls of our Hedong Road jump into this fire pit. ”

"I don't care about other girls!" Zhu Yuanji was a little anxious, "You really don't understand...... I mean, since he's not a good person, you should get out of it as soon as possible, and there may be no other way right now......"

"Someone's coming." Xiao Yan replied.

Sure enough, before the words fell, Hongying banged on the door and broke in, so anxious that her face changed: "There are many people downstairs and downstairs, like those in the palace, and as soon as they enter the door, they search the house without saying a word...... Miss, find a way to hide! ”
