Chapter 199: Mo Chen said that it was a moral decline
Xinya shook her head, "I'm afraid not. Now that there is such a big mess, the Western Capital is already under martial law, and no one can enter or leave. Only when the matter is settled can we take Xin Xing to live in Zhuangzi in the suburbs."
"What then?" Zhu was very worried: "Staying at home is afraid that it will not be good for Xin Xing's condition."
Xinya is also thinking of a way: "Wait for two days and see. When the time comes, I'll ask the Lord Regent for help."
The Zhu family knew that it could only be like this for the time being, and now that there was such a big mess, it was not that they could get out of the city if they wanted to.
"Miss." At this time, Xiaomei walked in and said, "Miss, the prince has sent someone to ask you if you want to see the place where Miss Xin and Young Master Zhuo are being held."
Tang Yingying thought about it and decided to take a look, maybe she could find something useful. What's more, she also wants to know where Xin Xing and Zhuo Jie are hidden, so that the dogs can't find them.
She said hello to Mr. and Mrs. Xinya and went out again.
When the carriage came to the place Mo Chen said, he saw him standing next to the carriage and helped her out of the carriage.
"Where is this?"
Tang Yingying swept around and noticed that there were all low bungalows around her, some of which were very dilapidated, and the streets were dirty, and when you stepped on it, it seemed like something slimy.
From time to time, I can see a few children's heads popping up, pressed back by a pair of big hands full of wind and frost, and the sound of scolding children can be vaguely heard.
She covered her nose with an embroidered handkerchief, which was full of all kinds of smells, and it didn't smell too good.
"The poorest place in the Western Capital." Mo Chen noticed that the hem of her skirt was soiled, and frowned.
Tang Yingying knew that there was such a place, and nodded her head without any thoughts: "Xin Xing and Zhuo Jie were locked up here before?"
Mo Chen helped her walk forward slowly, paying attention to the situation around her, "Hmm. According to He Zixuan, there is a mixture of fish and dragons here, and if something happens, no one will ask or care more."
"Plus the smell here is strong, and it's not easy for dogs to find it."
Tang Yingying's eyes were stained with a chill: "This is indeed a good Tibetan place. However, we used to make such a big fuss before, and no one here snitched for money?"
"What if the people here don't know?"
"There's no cave here?"
Mo Chen took Tang Yingying to one of the inconspicuous bungalows, and then entered the master bedroom.
In the master bedroom, Tang Yingying saw an entrance similar to a secret passage: "Is there a secret passage down here?"
Mo Chen took the torch handed by the forbidden army and led her into the secret passage: "It's not a secret passage, there is a mansion below, which is where Xin Xing and Zhuo Jie are kept."
Tang Yingying observed the secret passage while talking to Mo Chen: "In other words, Xin Xing and Zhuo Jie were quietly brought here and locked up?"
Just by looking at the decoration of the staircase and the walls, you can see that this place is not simple.
It's much better to have an underground vault in this place than to hide people or whatever you do in those places.
Mo Chen protected her, "Yes. According to several masked men, there are many similar secret rooms, and they know very little."
As soon as Tang Yingying heard it, she knew what he was thinking: "This matter should not be done with great fanfare."
"It's already a scaremonger, and it's okay to make a big fuss. And at times like these, the sooner we find out about these secret rooms, the better it will be for us."
"I listen to what you mean, you have already arranged for someone to deal with it?"
Mo Chen glanced at Tang Yingying appreciatively, and helped her down the last staircase: "Before I came, I had already made arrangements. I think we'll get some good news when we're done here."
Tang Yingying had to sigh with emotion, she really deserved to be the regent with a lot of power, and it was arranged early in the morning: "You specially asked me to come here, is there any reason?"
"I guess you want to come here."
「…… Are you the roundworm in my belly?"
Mo Chen didn't know whether to be angry or laugh: "I don't want to be a roundworm in your stomach, I just want to sleep next to you."
Tang Yingying snorted twice, threw the person away, and slowly spun around.
If it weren't for the fact that this house was underground, she would have praised this house for being so beautiful.
It is a house in the style of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which gives people a comfortable and atmospheric feeling from the overall point of view, and when you walk in, you will find that the layout here is exquisite, like the house of a big family.
"To build such a house underground, should we say that the other party has money and has nowhere to spend it, or should we say that the other party loves vanity?" Tang Yingying snorted lightly.
Mo Chen: "Perhaps, both. Without enough money, the other party would not be able to do so much."
Tang Yingying thought about it and said, "No matter what you do, if you don't have enough money, you can't do it."
"Have you found more clues and traces of the other party?"
Mo Chen's eyes showed a cold light: "Not to mention finding more clues and traces, even Hong Lian and the others have lost their traces. I guess I took advantage of this palace change to hide in case I caught it."...
Tang Yingying's footsteps paused: "It's a little strange."
Mo Chen hummed, "It's weird. At that time, the palace change was an excellent opportunity, but Hong Lian and the others played and disappeared, and they didn't grasp this opportunity, unlike their style."
That's what Tang Yingying meant: "You say, is it possible that Hong Lian and the others are planning a bigger conspiracy?"
Mo Chen couldn't say this: "The only thing that is certain is that there is a greater conspiracy breeding in the shadows. For example, King Jin and others are wasted chess and temptations."
Tang Yingying's brows tightened, and she let out a long sigh: "Sometimes I really can't figure out what these people are thinking, one by one. It's a good day, but you have to toss around."
"It's because the days are so good and idle that I want better and more idle days." Mo Chen said meaningfully.
Tang Yingying glanced at him and understood, "It's true. This person, once he is too idle, he will make a lot of trouble. Especially if you are rich and idle, you will be able to toss hard."
For example, the Tang family and the Wu family, if it weren't for the fact that these two families were too rich and too idle, they wouldn't have been tossed to this point. In other words, if you are a farmer, you can't run around all day long for food and clothing, and there won't be so many things at all.
The two walked around the house.
There are a lot of forbidden soldiers in the mansion who are busy, either searching here, or digging three feet into the ground, and they must search this place carefully.
Tang Yingying and Mo Chen returned to the ground, and Tang Yingying prepared to return to Xin's house.
As she got into the carriage, she remembered something.
"What are you going to do next?" It's not a way to keep the mansions locked up like this."
Mo Chen stretched out three fingers: "Three days, it will be able to deal with it."
Tang Yingying knew his ability and ability, but he still told him uneasily: "You have to be more careful, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case."
Mo Chen followed into the carriage, and his thin lips hooked into a light smile: "You care about me."
Tang Yingying looked at him with the eyes of a patient: "You have come to this conclusion?"
Mo Chen poured her a cup of tea and wiped her hands with a handkerchief, "This conclusion is very important to me. If you care about me, it means that I have a chance. If you don't care about me, I should cry."
Tang Yingying's hand holding the teacup trembled, and she once again saw the cheekiness of a certain regent: "Sometimes I think, why are you so shameless in front of me, even though you are a cold and unkind god in front of outsiders?"
"Is it a moral decay, or a lack of humanity?"
At first, this man was extremely unkind to see her, and hated her very much. But I don't know when this person has become like this, and the shamelessness is getting worse and worse.
Mo Chen followed her words and said, "It should be a moral degradation."
Tang Yingying almost didn't mention it in one breath: "Excuse me, pay a little attention to your image, you are the regent of the dynasty."
"To be in front of you is to be a fool's business. But you care about me."
「…… I just said that, and you came to such a conclusion?"
"That's it, it's for me
I see, you care and care about me."
"Where do you care?"
Mo Chen snapped his fingers and said, "When you tell me to be careful, you care and care about me. This shows that you are not so ruthless to me."
Seeing that the more he spoke, the more exaggerated it became, Tang Yingying reluctantly interrupted him: "Please stop your fantasies."
Mo Chen said righteously: "This is not my fantasy, this is the truth."
Tang Yingying was weak: "Yes, yes, yes, this is a fact, a fact that you are alone."
She really didn't want to talk about this person anymore, because she was not a cheeky opponent.
Mo Chen climbed up the pole: "Look at ......"
Tang Yingying's cold eyes swept away, and Mo Chen's words turned a corner: "I mean, let's live in peace?"
"What does the regent mean by this that we don't live in peace?"
"Not really. I said, we are more friendly and peaceful, what do you think?"
Tang Yingying said no, then closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Mo Chen thought about it, but still didn't bother her at this time. He and Tang Yingying have already made progress, and it would be bad if they made her angry at this time.
"Lord Wang!" At this time, a secret guard landed on the carriage and announced, "Lord Wang, King An and his wife have been killed, and Mo Yongning is missing."
Tang Yingying opened her eyes and looked at Mo Chen, King An and his wife were killed, and Mo Yongning was missing?
"What's going on?" Mo Chen asked in a deep voice.
Secret Guard: "King An and his wife were killed during the chaos, but looking at the situation of King An's and his wife's bodies, it doesn't look like they were killed by those masked people, and there are multiple wounds on their bodies, neither of which is fatal."
"The cause of their deaths was blood loss."
Mo Chen had a guess: "Mo Yongning is wanted. In addition, King An and his wife were buried according to the rules."
The Dark Guard received the order and went to do this.
"Are you also thinking that it is Mo Yongning's killer?" Tang Yingying asked Mo Chen.
Mo Chen bowed: "I still suspect that someone gave Mo Yongning any benefits, on the condition that he solved King An's wife."
Tang Yingying was a little puzzled: "Why did you solve the problem of King An and his wife? Whether Mr. and Mrs. An are alive or not has no effect."
Mo Chen guessed, "Perhaps, the punishment for the betrayer."
