"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty asked the old slave about this, but the old slave didn't know." Hearing Emperor Mingde's question, Peng Hai had a smile on his face.

"The old slave helped Yun Gong to speak, because he has known him for many years, and he can be regarded as knowing the roots, and he is the same as the old slave, and he is dedicated to His Majesty."

In the past, in front of Emperor Mingde, Peng Hai called himself a slave, but now he suddenly changed his name, all because of his questioning.

Even though he had been with His Majesty for many years, he had to be cautious when answering such questions.

Calling an old slave is also a reminder.

In this way, even if he really said the wrong thing, for the sake of many years of affection, His Majesty would treat him lightly.

"You old thing!" How could Emperor Mingde not know Peng Hai's thoughts, and a slight smile appeared on his face, "I really have to think about this matter."

He knew very well in his heart that if he really wanted to change someone to be the head of the internal guard, whether it was the eldest prince or the third prince, he would definitely find a way, hoping to arrange his own people.

But in any case, the leader of this inner guard cannot be their man.

The internal guard belongs to the king, and the leader can only be picked by him, who is the emperor, otherwise it will be more unreliable to use.

"If Yunlan comes, let him come in directly." Emperor Mingde commanded at Peng Hai.

"Yes." Peng Hai responded and retreated towards the outside of the hall.

——

"Mother." Yu Qin came in from His Royal Highness and saluted Xie Xi, "I heard that Chief Yun was assassinated, fortunately, he was not seriously injured, and he has already gone to ask His Majesty for his guilt."

"Assassinated?" Xie Hui, who was leaning on the beauty chair, raised her eyebrows slightly, "Do you know who did it?"

"I don't know this for the time being, presumably the people of the internal guard will carefully investigate, and I don't know if Your Majesty will blame the cloud leader?" Emperor Mingde's temperament is understood by both the master and the servant.

"Blame is inevitable, but I don't know if he can still sit in the position of the head of the internal guard." Now that Yunlan is sitting in this position, it will be a lot of convenience for them.

Even if the internal guard is exclusive to the king, but the leader of the internal guard has a different heart, he can secretly maneuver around it.

Even if the news returns to Emperor Mingde, there is nothing to worry about, because whether the news increases or decreases and how it turns around is under the control of the leader.

"Mother, do we have to make some arrangements?" After listening to Xie Hui, Yu Qin asked worriedly.

"There's no need to deliberately arrange it, since he is the leader of the internal guard, he will definitely have a back hand, even if he can't sit in this position anymore, the new internal security leader may not be our person."

Emperor Mingde had arranged eyes in Qifeng Palace, since Xie Ji had been in the palace for many years, how could he be completely unprepared?

It's just that in the past, I really didn't think about starting from the inner guard, and it was really not an easy thing.

If Xie Cheng wanted to operate, even if she couldn't replace the head of the internal guard with her person, she could intervene in it.

"Yuqin, I think this is a bit interesting." Xie Xi sat up slightly straighter, picked up the flower tea on the side and took a sip.

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Qin was a little puzzled.

"Do you think, Yun Lan, as the leader of the internal guards, according to his intentions, there should be someone to protect him in the dark, but he was injured, he was only injured, but he was poisoned?"

Yu Qin thought carefully about the news she got and shook her head.

"If the other party really wants to kill him, why not use poison? Even if it's just an ordinary poison, it's enough to make Yun Lan unable to take charge of the internal guard in the short term, and at that time, the leader of the internal guard will definitely be replaced."

"But in the current situation, Yun Lan is only injured, not serious, and he can still continue to serve as the leader, but His Majesty will definitely be dissatisfied and even replace him."

Xie Cheng put down the cup in his hand and analyzed with Yu Qin slowly, "However, according to the current situation, even if Your Majesty has such thoughts, in the end, the leader of the internal guard will not be replaced, and Yunlan will still be the leader of the internal guard."

With Emperor Mingde's temperament, he must have known that if he wanted to change people, the eldest prince and the third prince would definitely find a way, but it was impossible for him to allow their people to become the leaders of the internal guard.

Yun Lan is not seriously injured, these

Although he has been tested by him many times, after all, he still has his trust, so it is most convenient to continue to use him.

Xie Cheng had some vague guesses in her heart, this assassination may have been deliberately planned by someone, as for the purpose...... Probably to find out someone.

Yun Lan and Xie Ji had both thought that there might be other people in this dark place, but they didn't know who that person was yet.

In any case, you have to find that person out as soon as possible, otherwise their plan will be even more difficult to implement, and you always have to be on the lookout for someone stabbing you in the back.

But where is the truth of a thousand days to prevent thieves?

It's better to take the initiative and show a little flaw to the other party, if the other party catches it, it is naturally the best, but if the other party is indifferent, then they should be more careful.

No matter what is on the surface, it is not enough evidence, and the poisonous snake hidden in the dark is the most terrifying.

——

Yunlan, who returned to the palace, immediately went to Emperor Mingde to ask for guilt.

The atmosphere in the Lingyun Hall was a little stagnant at this time, and Emperor Mingde looked at Yunlan and didn't speak for a long time.

The point that Xie Cheng could think of, Emperor Mingde could naturally think of, and at this moment he looked at Yunlan and didn't know what to think.

But whether he stared at people, or stared at people without speaking, Yunlan only maintained a saluting posture, just like in the past, neither humble nor arrogant.

Finally, Emperor Mingde spoke, "Since you are injured, go back and let the imperial doctor take a good look, so as not to fall into any disease."

"Yes, thank you for your concern." Yun Lan saluted again, "The affairs of the Internal Security Division's yamen have been arranged."

"Huh? Do you think I'm going to replace you?" Emperor Mingde stared at him and asked.

"The minister doesn't dare to figure out His Majesty's thoughts, but since the minister is injured, in order not to affect the operation of the internal security department, he still has to make some preparations."

In other words, even if he is replaced now, it will not have any effect on the inner defender.

Emperor Mingde's gaze was firmly fixed on Yun Lan, "You raise your head and watch me speak."

"I beg your pardon for the offense." Yun Lan raised his head as he said, his eyebrows and eyes drooped slightly, and he did not look at Emperor Mingde.

"Do you know what this internal guard leader represents, and if I ask you to hand it over, you should be really willing?" With a laugh, Emperor Mingde asked again.

"Your Majesty, the minister is just the internal supervisor by your side, even if he is not the head of the internal guard, he is still in charge of the palace for you, and he still belongs to the close attendants by your side, and he can be loyal to you, even so, it is the same everywhere."

When he said this, Yun Lan's tone was serious and solemn, and Emperor Mingde looked at his expression, and a little pleasure flashed in his eyes.

"You, the leader of the internal guard, have done a good job, I have no intention of changing people for the time being, but you are injured in the end, let the imperial doctor see it, and rest for a few days."

What Emperor Mingde said was exactly what Yunlan wanted, and he immediately saluted, "Chen Yunlan, thank you for your grace."
