Chapter 400: We Are Allies (Two Watches in One for a Monthly Pass)

The rain was heavy.

The sky seemed to leak a hole, and the rain was pouring in.

The rain was like fog, and even the lights in the main house not far away were blocked, and it was not clear at all.

And behind them, in this wing, there is only an oil lamp on the table.

Faint, dim, crumbling with the wind blowing through.

But it was so hot, so intense, like a long-ago fire.

There was a dark night rain in front of him, and behind him was a blatant fire, and the rain curtain hanging down from the eaves was like a long knife, splitting into two distinct places.

Li Shao's words were too shocking, not only did he not stand it, but Lin Yunyan was in a panic.

She took small breaths, squatted down, and looked directly at Li Shao, "When was the last time you saw my mother?"

Li Shao sat paralyzed, his shoulders shrugged, his hands wiping his face and grabbing his hair: "The moment she woke up, she was only wearing her middle clothes, she should have found a fire in her sleep, and she didn't have time to clean it up.

She said something to me, and I saw her mouth moving, but my ears were buzzing, and I didn't hear anything.

After saying this, she rushed into the main hall again, and not long after she entered, the main hall collapsed, and the whole thing collapsed!"

Lin Yunyan choked up and asked, "She wants to save the first queen, right?"

"It should be," Li Shao said, "I also learned later that the queen mother didn't run out, and several grandmothers didn't come out......

Lin Yunyan asked again, "I heard that His Highness fell ill later, and you can't remember the situation that day."

"I really don't remember before," Li Shao's voice was sorrowful, "It's not that I haven't thought about it, everyone wants to know what happened that night and why it caught fire, my father asked, my grandfather asked, the queen mother asked, and my grandfather also asked......

I want to know too! It's not just your mother who is dying, it's my queen mother!

The whole world is looking forward to my mother's life the most, in addition to my father, and me!

If she were alive, if she was still ......."

The more Li Shao spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice involuntarily rose.

Lin Yunyan will not go against Li Shao at this time, and believes that these words are true.

No child wants to lose his loving mother.

Li Shao is mixed now, no matter how crazy he is in the future, he was only a four- or five-year-old child back then, and he was the son of the former queen.

"I understand," Lin Yunyan said softly, "You also want to remember, but you were young at that time, and you lost your memory after being frightened. It's not surprising, my father also said that he consulted many doctors at the time, and the royal doctors also said that this happens when people are frightened, especially children."

Li Shao nodded heavily.

Naturally, he knew about his own illness.

His father was saddened by the loss of his mother, and hoped that he could remember, the imperial doctors explained a lot to his father, and Li Shao also accompanied him.

When he was a child, he couldn't understand too profound, so the doctor told him in the simplest words that it was not his fault that he had forgotten.

When I grew up, I could understand it, and I knew that persecution was useless and I couldn't force it, so I naturally let it go.

Until tonight.

The oil lamp that fell by mistake, the flames that flickered, and the facial features similar to those of Mrs. Bo became a giant axe, splitting the box shrouded in memory.

Lin Yunyan saw that Li Shao's mood gradually eased, so she continued to ask, "Who is that eye-born eunuch?"

"I can't remember," Li Shao held his head, trying to recall, "I should have seen him, unfamiliar, but I did.

I was in a daze, and anxious to go to the toilet, and at first I didn't notice anything else until he asked me to hold the oil lamp, and I didn't see his face.

Forty or fifty years old, right? By the way, he's a monkey face!

I've got to find him, I've got to call Shan Shen, I'm going to tell him!"

Li Shao was anxious to stand up, but before he could exert his strength, Lin Yunyan pressed his shoulder.

"Your Highness," Lin Yunyan

He shook his head at him and said in a low voice, "How many eunuchs can Master Shan recognize more than ten years ago?" The matter of Dingguo Temple, you are looking for Master Shan, it is better to go to Gonggong Cao, you have to find the saint to say."

Li Shao nodded abruptly.

"On that day, there were dead soldiers in the town below the mountain who pretended to be bandits in order to fight for the throne," Lin Yunyan added, "The eunuch who set the fire in the temple and didn't let you call people must have acted on orders."

Li Shao's eyes sank: "You mean Li Mi?"

Lin Yunyan pursed her lips.

His father once said that Li Mi only admitted to stealing merit in the suppression of bandits, but he never recognized the original rockery thieves who attacked the town, let alone the fire in Dingguo Temple.

And inferred from Li Mi's temperament, he was impatient, direct, and quietly set fire to the temple, which does not seem to be his handiwork.

What's more, the eunuch Wang Liu, who seems to be Li Mi's cronies, actually has another master behind him......

At the moment, Lin Yunyan does not plan to analyze such a matter with Li Shao in detail.

She is a woman, even if she is the daughter of Shen Yun who was killed, she should not be so head-to-head.

Those, it should be said by a more suitable person and Li Shao that Lin Yunyan didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

"I'm not sure who it is, whether it's Li Mi, the one in the Yongji Palace, or anyone else, I don't know, and I can't tell," Lin Yunyan said, "I'm just thinking that Li Mi is dead, but Wang Liuliu and Dao Heng are still making waves in Beijing after that."

What if it's not just them? What if someone else is watching in the shadows?

You don't remember anything, they sit back and relax, once they know that you remembered that there was a monkey-faced eunuch that night, didn't it startle the snake?

We will definitely find him, and the Holy One will definitely not let him go, and we have finally gotten such a clue, so we must be cautious and cautious!"

These words reached Li Shao's heart.

He has had a lot of bad luck in the past two days, so why is there no one else framed in it?

Xu Jian was out of play, but it was Liu Xun who took him to Chenmi Hutong, and it was Dao Heng who attracted the attention of the government!

Monk Daoheng harmed him!

There are Li Mi's gold bricks in that house, and there are ancient moon people's gold papers, and it is not surprising that it really has something to do with the murderer behind Dingguo Temple.

He has been harmed by that villain for so long, maybe he has been harming him since more than ten years ago, and now is the time for him to fight back!

You must not act rashly, and you must not leak a little rumor.

"Then don't tell Shan Shen, he should know, and when he returns to his father, his father will explain to him," Li Shao made up his mind, "Ning An, you will definitely help me, right?"

"I'm not helping Your Highness," it was rare for Lin Yunyan to pick out words with Li Shao at this critical time, because she had to win Li Shao's trust, "That monkey-faced eunuch is a murderer, your enemy, and my mother-killing enemy!" I also want revenge, how can I help you? We are allies!"

Hearing the previous sentence, Li Shao's face stiffened, and when he finished listening, he relaxed suddenly.

Ning An was right.

That person is their common enemy, and in the matter of revenge, Ning An can definitely believe it.

In other words, in addition to his father, investigating Dingguo Temple, his most trustworthy person is Ning An, that is, Sincerity.

As for Xu Jian, he has no other interests with Dingguo Temple, and he will not have any other branches, but will only advance and retreat with Ning An.

In recent days, Li Shaoyuan and Xu Jian have reached a certain degree of consensus, and at this moment, a lock has been added to it.

"Just get to the bottom ......," he muttered.

Even if the real murderer died, the destruction of Dingguo Temple was a murder rather than an accident, which would make the father miss his mother even more.

And the father can't forget his mother, the deeper he remembers, the smoother his road to recovery.

Thinking of this rain and thunder, Li Shao firmly thought: We must not let go of this God-given opportunity.

Although I can't see the situation in the main house clearly, after a long time, if the adult does not come, Wang Gouzi will also come.

Lin Yunyan hurriedly said to Li Shao: "Only I know about this matter, Your Highness knows, I won't tell Grandpa Guo first, and Your Highness won't mention it to Grandpa Wang, wait until we see the Holy Lord and listen to his command."

Li Shao was not wary of Wang Gouzi, and subconsciously wanted to question two sentences, but since Ning An did not tell Xu Jian in exchange, he didn't feel a loss, so he responded casually.

The light behind him suddenly dimmed.

Lin Yunyan got up to look, it turned out that there was not much lamp oil left.

Li Shao also relieved himself and got up from the ground: "It's not too early, I'm afraid that if I don't set off again, the palace gate will be closed."

"Then I'll go talk to Master Shan." Lin Yunyan said and walked out.

As soon as I stepped out of the door, I saw a person coming along the corridor.

The person who came was holding a lamp in his hand, and his face was reflected, it was Xu Jian.

The two sides looked at each other, and Lin Yunyan called him.

Li Shao also looked over.

"Is Your Highness feeling better?" Xu Jian walked up to him and asked.

Li Shaomu nodded with a grimace: "I want to go back to the palace immediately, and Ning An will also go together."

When Xu Jian heard this, his gaze fell on Lin Yunyan, his gaze was gentle.

"Yes, I want to go to the palace too." Lin Yunyan said.

She told Li Shao that if she didn't tell Xu Jian, she wouldn't break her word in person.

But she and Xu Jian had an extraordinary tacit understanding, even if she didn't say much, just a look, a simple word, Xu Jian knew that she had asked a lot of things from Li Shao's mouth.

"The minister called Gonggong Wang first, and then said to Master Shan, what does Your Highness think?" Xu Jian asked.

Li Shao responded.

Soon, Wang Gouzi came at a trot.

He was extremely concerned about Li Shao's condition.

Originally, His Royal Highness was in the courtyard, and Wang Gouzi could see the situation from the window, but when His Highness moved to the wing, he couldn't see it.

I don't know what His Highness said to the county lord?

He fixed his eyes on the two of them, His Royal Highness looked impatient and uneasy, and the county lord was preoccupied.

If you want to say that there is no harmony and disputes, Wang Gouzi didn't see it.

"Your Highness wants to go back to the palace? The carriage is still waiting outside the house, and it will be ready to go at once." He said.

Xu Jian was a few steps behind Wang Gouzi and came over with Shan Shen.

Shan Shen basically checked the situation: "Your Highness, tonight is indeed unfortunate, the Qianfu was struck by lightning, and it was hit twice.

Once it landed on that tree and knocked the tree to the ground, the minister checked it, and it was indeed in a state of lightning strike.

The other fell on the roof of the west room, and made a hole, but fortunately it rained heavily and did not burn.

The other damage was the veil, which the oil lamp had accidentally lit, and had been extinguished.

The more detailed judgment will have to wait until tomorrow, and after dawn we can see more clearly, and then check if there is anything missing."

"I'll leave it to Master Shan here," Li Shao said, "If there is nothing else, I will go back to the palace first, if something happens to the Qianfu, since I have been here, I must tell my father as soon as possible."

Shan Shen didn't stop Li Shao, and sent people out all the way.

The carriage stopped next to the house, and Li Shao went up first, turning his head to look at Lin Yunyan.

Lin Yunyan guessed that he didn't want to let herself and Xu simply sit alone in the car, so as not to be treacherous, but why didn't she worry about Wang Gouzi saying a few words from Li Shao's mouth?

In this way, she went from good to flowing and walked to Li Shao's carriage.

Xu Jian helped her step on her feet, and then came up herself: "Your Highness, the county lord was frightened before, and she was absent-minded, so the minister will accompany her."

Right under his nose, Li Shao didn't refuse, and he didn't care about them when he sat down.

Wang Gouzi looked at the carriage, didn't go to the inside, and sat on the car with the handlebar.

The carriage braved the rain all the way back to the palace.

Lin Yunyan sat absent-mindedly, leaned on Xu Jian, closed her eyes and said nothing.

Xu Jian held her with one hand, held Lin Yunyan's hand with the other, and rubbed her palm one by one.

He could guess the result, and he didn't know what Li Shao said specifically, and he didn't know how Lin Yunyan guided Li Shao to say it, but Xu Jian couldn't be mistaken, in order to get the answer, the little county lord Fei

I did my best.

In order to control her true thoughts and emotions, Lin Yunyan's palms were full of nail marks.

Deep and shallow, staggered and messy.

Some are pale and some are bruised.

The little county lord has fine skin and tender meat, and she must have forgotten the pain at that time.

But Xu Jian felt pain, he was very distressed.

This is Li Shao's carriage, Li Shao is on the side, Xu Jian can't comfort Lin Yunyan well, so he can only rub it for her gently.

They hurried back to the palace before the palace gate closed, and because it was Li Shao's carriage, they went all the way to the outside of the imperial study.

The saint has not rested yet, and Gong Cao came out when he heard the news.

Seeing the three people getting off the carriage, he hesitated for a moment to observe.

After going down, the main hall went to the Fuguo Mansion to eat wine, and the saint was quite happy when he heard about it.

The better His Highness gets along with the Auxiliary State Prince, the more satisfied the Holy One will be, as long as the food and wine are not excessive, there is no problem with daily drinking, not to mention that in the Guogong Mansion, where is there anything to worry about.

"It's just that the weather is a little worse."

The Holy One only commented on this.

Who would have thought that these three people would enter the palace together after eating wine, and they were all drenched in the rain and wanted to enter the imperial study directly.

His Royal Highness still has a time when he is not particular, and the county lord has never had a history of untidy appearance in front of the emperor!

"The Holy One is inside," Gonggong Cao led them in, and asked cautiously tentatively, "Nothing happened, did it?"

Li Shao replied, "There is something."

Lin Yunyan added: "It's important, and I'll ask my father-in-law to avoid it later."

Gonggong Cao sighed in his heart.

A few people went to the front of the palace to salute, and the Holy Lord couldn't help frowning when he saw them like this: "What's the matter? It's so, so miserable."

Father-in-law Cao had already pulled everyone back and stood outside the curtain by himself.

Li Shao opened his mouth to answer, but he choked up.

Seeing it in his eyes, he motioned for Xu Jian to speak.

"The thunderbolt from before hit the Hidden Mansion." Xu Jiandao.

The saint was stunned: "What did you say?"

Li Shao eased up and said, "Father, the incident of that night in Dingguo Temple, Erchen remembered it."
