Shangqing Palace,

The empress looked at Yang Dong with a tired face, and her willow eyebrows frowned slightly.

"Little Dongzi, it's just one night, why are you so tired?"

"Can you do it?"

Yang Dong's face was bitter, and he said:

"Your Majesty, it's not that I can't do it."

"Tossing all night at once, Your Majesty should be able to guess how tired you are!"

On the empress's majestic cheeks, a blush flashed on the ground, and it disappeared immediately.

"Xiao Dongzi, if you dare to speak openly, I cut your tongue!"

Yang Dong immediately gave up, and his attitude of admitting his mistake was excellent.

Seeing this, the empress was no longer angry, but got down to business.

"Xiao Dongzi, I really didn't misunderstand you. As you expected, the grain and grass in the suburbs of Beijing last night were really attacked by bandits. ”

"Fortunately, I transferred the grain and grass in advance, but there was no loss."

"After a night of interrogation, they confessed who was behind it."

After hearing this, Yang Dong immediately became interested.

"So I guessed right."

"I think the mastermind behind these thieves should be Lin Chunqiu's subordinates."

"Your Majesty, have you ever caught the mastermind behind the scenes?"

The empress shook her head slightly, and a hint of gloom flashed on her majestic cheeks.

After asking the mastermind behind the scenes, the blue bird immediately went to his home.

"But the person behind the curtain has already hanged himself......"

When Yang Dong heard this, his expression froze slightly.

The other party acted so quickly!

And he is ruthless, without dragging his feet.

It is not easy for such an enemy to seize his handle.

It's a shame that it's not often that such a good opportunity comes by.

The empress obviously knew this, and after sighing lightly, she said:

"However, this operation is not for nothing, at least this incident can be used as an excuse to investigate the household department."

"Besides, these grains and grasses can be regarded as solving the urgent need."

Yang Dong bowed slightly, and the strong sense of exhaustion made him unable to hold back and yawned.

Seeing that he was so tired, the empress couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart.

Revenge on the queen is important, but it can't really exhaust Yang Dong's cow to death.

So she said lightly:

"Well, since you're tired, go back and rest."

"When you wake up, remember to go to the West Factory."

……

Lin Mansion, Bamboo Garden.

Lin Chunqiu held a firewood knife in his hand, and with a swing of the knife, he cut off a green bamboo with a thick bowl mouth.

"So, you stepped directly into the emperor's trap?"

"Not to mention that the grain and grass were not burned, and all the hands were folded in."

"That petty official in the household department also lost his life because of you?"

Hu Guang's face was pale, and the two trembled.

He naturally didn't dare to say that it was because Lin Chunqiu gave the wrong address, which led to the failure of the operation.

So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:

"Lord Lin, the lower officials know that they are wrong, and the responsibility for the failure of this operation lies with me."

"It's just Lord Lin, the lower officials think that the person who laid out this layout is thoughtful and quick-witted, and it doesn't seem to be from His Majesty's handwriting."

Lin Chunqiu ignored him, and took a firewood knife to cut down a green bamboo.

"There's something weird about this, let me think about it......"

"Lin Qi, have you found out the background of that little eunuch?"

In the depths of the bamboo forest, Lin Qiyin's sympathetic voice came out again.

"The head of the Qiqi family, this Yang Dong is the little eunuch who stayed in the palace when the first emperor was there."

"He grew up in the palace since he was a child, he has no skills, and he has never been reused."

"But it is said that this Yang Dong is very handsome, so he stayed with the emperor."

"The subordinates think that this kind of little person is not worth the attention of the head of the family."

Lin Chunqiu bowed slightly, and also felt that he was suspicious.

So he swung his firewood knife again and slashed at a green bamboo with a thick bowl.

With a "click", the firewood knife suddenly broke!

Half of the blade flew out with a "whoosh", almost sticking to Hu Guang's scalp.

Hu Guang's face changed suddenly, his legs weakened, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again.

"Lord Shoufu spares his life, and the lower official knows that he is wrong."

"Please Shousuke-sama give Xiaguan another chance, Xiaguan will definitely not let you down."

From beginning to end, Lin Chunqiu didn't look at Hu Guang again.

He casually threw the half-cut firewood knife in his hand, took a figure-eight step, and walked towards the bamboo house.

"The firewood knife is not good, and even the bamboo is constantly chopping."

"Such a firewood knife, it's useless to keep it, it's better to lose it!"

"What does Master Hu think?"

Hu Guang kowtowed heavily again until he broke his head and bleed. Only then did he speak:

"Shousuke-sama, after all, the firewood knife has cut so much bamboo for you. There is no merit, and there is hard work. ”

"Please also ask Shousuke-sama to give the firewood knife a chance, the firewood knife will definitely not disappoint you."

"Alas!"

In the bamboo house, a deep sigh came out.

"I'm old, and I don't have any other wishes in this life except to cut down this bamboo forest."

"Master Hu, I'll leave it to you over there in Luozhou, don't let me down."

"Shousuke-sama rest assured!"

……

Three poles on the sun,

Yang Dong finally woke up.

He stretched, feeling refreshed and radiant.

With the flow of qi and blood in his body, he felt as if he had inexhaustible strength.

By the way, the empress seems to ask me to go to the West Factory.

He immediately got up and was about to go out to wash, but saw Chunlan standing at the door, holding a wooden basin in her hand, looking at him timidly.

For Chunlan to stay by his side, Yang Dong still remained a little vigilant.

After all, she came from the crazy demon girl, and she didn't know what the purpose was.

Besides, the crazy demon girl also poisoned me, although she didn't find any clues, it may be that she deliberately bluffed me.

But what if the poison is extremely hidden?

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Dong felt irritable.

No, I still have to find a way to ask a famous doctor to take a look at the master.

This crazy demon girl, when the master is detoxified, he will definitely clean you up!

Because of the above, Yang Dong's attitude towards Chunlan is also a lot colder.

He just glanced at Chunlan lightly, then turned his head and continued to walk forward.

"Chunlan, you don't have to be like this."

"I can't afford your service."

"If you have the heart, you might as well return to Kangning Palace as soon as possible."

When Chunlan heard this, her delicate body couldn't help but tremble. She bit her red lips tightly and looked at Yang Dong's distant back, tears in her beautiful eyes.

She really couldn't understand why Mr. Yang, who was still a "Chunlan girl" yesterday, became as ruthless as a stranger today.

That's it, after all, I thought too much about it, and tried in vain to climb the high branches of Mr. Yang.

Chunlan, you deserve it!

Yang Dong didn't know the complicated inner drama of the little palace maid, and at this moment he had only one thought in his heart, that is, to go to the West Factory to have a look.

Strictly speaking, this is the first force in their hands.

If you use it well, you will be able to call for wind and rain in the future.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to be 9,000 years old when the time comes?

Wait, the master is not a eunuch, the substitution is wrong, the code!

At the same time, a green shadow quietly followed him.
