"Brother Huang, you think too much. I mean, now is the critical time, you openly protect the Liao king, what does the father think? ”

Zhou Chengyan's back was already wet with cold sweat at this time, and he was a little afraid.

With the intelligence of the imperial brother, it is easy to find out his abnormality, and it seems that you will have to be careful in the future.

At this time, in the Liao Palace, Lin Ziyu and Su Moyue were sitting and talking in the banquet room.

Red Sleeves came in with two little girls, and a plate of snacks was placed on the Nanmu carved table.

Sugar steamed sweet cheese, plum shortbread, almond tofu, auspicious fruit.

Lin Ziyu picked up a piece of plum blossom shortbread and ate it sweetly, and let Su Moyue eat it while eating.

Su Moyue couldn't help but think of Yuan Qianyu.

is also the daughter of the palace, if Lin Ziyu doesn't have to carry this country, she should be as favored as Yuan Qianyu.

When Lin Ziyu is in a bad mood, he likes to eat sweets.

It seems that when the mouth is sweet, the heart is not so bitter.

After a few pieces of dim sum and half a bowl of milk tea, Lin Ziyu said: "I want to find out the matter as soon as possible and hurry back to Liaodong." My relationship with Zhou Chengyan will cause trouble sooner or later. ”

When Su Moyue heard this, she asked, "How's the investigation?" Things back then weren't easy to check, right? ”

Lin Ziyu returned to Beijing this time to find out the truth about the death of the old prince of the Liao Palace.

When the old prince died of illness in the capital, it was very sudden.

By the time Lin Ziyu and his brother returned to Beijing for the funeral, the old prince had already been buried.

The answer given by the Lin family was that because they counted the auspicious day, they didn't wait for their brother and sister.

For so many years, Lin Ziyu has always suspected that this matter was done by the second room of the Lin family.

After all, if it weren't for her and her brother's ruthlessness at that time, the military power of the Lin family's house would have been lost.

"Although there is no evidence, judging from the current clues, most of them were done by the second room." Lin Ziyu said.

Su Moyue thought for a while, "Did you see the corpse?" ”

"No, my brother and I were young at the time. After my brother died, I have been guarding Liaodong. It's been more than ten years, and the body is gone. Lin Ziyu said a little lonely.

"Do you mind if I open the coffin? Maybe you can find some clues in the bones. Su Moyue said.

"Are you saying that if you open the coffin now, you can find clues?" Lin Ziyu asked.

Su Moyue nodded, "That's natural, poisoning or injuries with sharp weapons can be found." ”

Lin Ziyu immediately decided to open the coffin, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry for you, Yue'er." ”

After all, it is the duty of the coffin to open the coffin and perform the autopsy, and even the imperial doctor is unlucky, let alone a young lady from a family like Su Moyue.

"What are you polite to me? It's just that if you go back to Liaodong, what will he do? That's all you guys are going to do? ”

Su Moyue could see that Lin Ziyu did not reject Zhou Chengyan, and even had a faint good impression.

Lin Ziyu said quietly: "Between us, it is just a relationship between the spring breeze. We have no future, and none of us can give up the burden on our shoulders. ”

Su Moyue heard the sadness in Lin Ziyu's words, and she was very sad and unbearable.

She should have been a carefree little county lord, choosing a husband, husband and children, and living a life wantonly.

Now, she looks like she is in power, with hundreds of thousands of troops in her hands, but who knows the bitterness in her heart?

"Lord Wang, His Royal Highness King Yan has come down." Red Sleeves came in.

Su Moyue was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Then I'll go back first, you can talk about it." ”

At the hanging flower gate leading from the inner courtyard of the palace to the outer courtyard, Su Moyue met Zhou Chengyan.

Zhou Chengyan had a cold face, and he didn't have a good face for Su Moyue.

Su Moyue naturally didn't look at him much, and the two of them actually looked at each other a little and hated each other.

Zhou Chengyan was let to the flower hall in the outer courtyard, and Lin Ziyu came in later.

"I've seen His Royal Highness King Yan, but is there something wrong with His Highness?" Lin Ziyu's voice was cold, looking like he was doing business.

Zhou Chengyan frowned, thinking that Lin Ziyu was unhappy about today's affairs.

explained: "Jiao Niang, today's incident is deliberate by my imperial brother, I am afraid that my father will be jealous. ”

Lin Ziyu said with a straight face, "His Royal Highness King Yan, please respect yourself, don't call the name Jiao Niang in the future." Xiao Wang can see the affairs of the court clearly, and I will thank His Royal Highness King Jing for taking care of me another day. ”

"Lin Ziyu, what do you mean by this? Do you want to draw a line with me? Or am I doing something wrong? Zhou Chengyan stood up and asked.

"Your Highness, why is this difficult, this should be the case between us, isn't it? There is no recovery in front of you, and it is time to stop when you come here. Lin Ziyu said quietly.

Zhou Chengyan sat on the chair dejectedly, "Jiao Niang, are you really not interested in me at all?" ”

Lin Ziyu's heart froze when he heard this, and he didn't look at Zhou Chengyan, and said with a sneer: "Your Highness doesn't understand? It was just a misunderstanding that day, even if it was a little showman, I had to pull it to bed, didn't I? ”

Zhou Chengyan's face suddenly turned red with anger, and he pointed at Lin Ziyu, trembling slightly, "Lin Ziyu, what are you talking about?" Who are you king? ”

Lin Ziyu said coldly: "I naturally consider you the fifth prince of the Great Zhou, His Royal Highness the Yan King!" What else can I be when you are? ”

Zhou Chengyan staggered and stood up, his eyes were red, and his eyes were blazing, "Lin Ziyu, this king really misjudged you, in the future, we will return to the bridge and the road to the road." If I lick my face and come to you again, I'll be a skinless dog. ”

After speaking, he strode out of the Liao Wangfu.

After Zhou Chengyan left, Lin Ziyu sat on the chair alone, covering his face with his hands, and his shoulders shook violently.

On the afternoon of that day, it was rumored in Beijing that the King of Liao had made His Royal Highness King Yan angry.

The rumors of the two are so self-defeating, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

In the evening, Lin Ziyu and Su Moyue quietly went to the place where the ancestors of the Lin family were buried.

After finding the tomb of the old prince, Lin Ziyu and Su Moyue first kowtowed three times.

Lin Ziyu said: "Father, I will not let go of your murderer." Today's grave digging is also to find clues and ask the father to forgive his daughter's great unfilial piety. ”

After speaking, Lin Ziyu slammed his head in front of the grave, did not get up for a long time, and sobbing sounded out.

remembered the love of his father for their brothers and sisters when he was young, and remembered that she was not by his side when his father left.

Thinking of all these years, she has been in Liaodong for all these years, and I can't help but feel sad.

Su Moyue gently grabbed Lin Ziyu's shoulder, "Okay, let's start." ”

Lin Zi raised his sleeves, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and began to prepare to dig a grave.

The two of them only brought one personal guard, four secret guards in the dark, and the digging of the grave could only be done by three people themselves.

Soon, the coffin of the golden silk nanmu was revealed.

Several people carefully lifted the lid of the coffin, and inside was a whole human skeleton.

Lin Ziyu leaned on Su Moyue's body, sobbing and said, "Yue'er, I was still thinking just now, is it possible that it is empty inside, my father is actually still alive." ”

Su Moyue rubbed Lin Ziyu's back and comforted: "What you think makes sense, this corpse may not necessarily be the prince's." ”
