An autumn rain washed away the surging killings and calmed down.

The sky was slightly bright, and Su Ying went to the Purple Hall with the holy edict. Xiao Yuehuai found the right time and sneaked into the room where he lived, Ah Lu was guarding the door, and when she saw her rummaging around, she couldn't help but wonder: "Princess, what are you looking for?" ”

Xiao Yuehuai: "Last night, Lu Pingsheng turned the empty Qingyuan up and down, but he didn't find a trace of Xun Chong and the Lu family's father and daughter, but after he left, they appeared in the general's house out of thin air. Don't you think it's strange? ”

After she reminded her, Ah Lu also tasted the strangeness in it: "This thing is really strange! The slave couldn't figure it out. ”

Xiao Yuehuai carefully searched for all kinds of furnishings in the house, moved all the things that could be moved, and finally found the golden silk nan wooden frame.

His gaze fell on the third layer of shiny jade porcelain.

She noticed that only this one was the cleanest, hesitated, placed her hand on the bottle, and touched it slightly. There was a faint sound of gears turning in the room.

A crack cracked in the opposite wall, and a dark room appeared in front of the master and servant.

Ah Lu was taken aback: "How can there be such a place in the empty green garden?" ”

Xiao Yuehuai's eyes sank, and she walked away, finding four or five drops of dried blood on the floor of the dark room, and whispered to herself: "It seems... Yesterday, Xun Chong and Lu's father and daughter were hiding here. ”

Ah Lu squatted aside: "But... It's also weird. Slaves and maids have often followed you back and forth to this empty green garden since they can remember, and they never knew about this dark room. The general has only come once, how can he know that there is another mystery in this house? ”

Xiao Yuehuai wrinkled her eyebrows, also feeling puzzled. Not only Ah Lu, but even she didn't know that there was a dark room in Kongqingyuan, and Su Ying was unexpectedly clear.

But Su Ying only returned to Beijing last year. The palace of Changjing Mountain, he came for the first time, but his familiarity with this place is no less than her...

Don't... Did he stay in Jinling before?

"Let's inquire, who arranged the general's house?"

Ah Lu bowed his head and retreated.

Xiao Yuehuai lingered in the dark room again before quietly leaving.

She waited for Ah Lu in front of the porch, while looking down and thinking about what happened last night, and before she could figure out anything, she heard a call not far away.

"Ah Huai."

Xiao Yuehuai looked up.

The early sun shone through the branches, sprinkled like scales in front of the house. Yuanyuchuan stepped on a thin golden color, with a warm smile on his lips, and a pair of amorous eyes cast his gaze, dotted like stars, bright as the sun.

"Listen to Brother Wu?"

Xiao Yuehuai greeted him: "At this hour, why are you here?" ”

Yuanyu Chuan: "Your Majesty ordered me to escort you down the mountain." Is your outfit organized? ”

Xiao Yuehuai was surprised: "You're going back to the palace so soon?" Could it be that Lu Pingsheng has already captured the assassin? ”

Yuan Yuchuan's expression sank slightly, and he nodded: "Sort of." ”

Xiao Yuehuai looked puzzled: "What do you mean by counting, right?" What about Su Ying? Why didn't Su Ying come with you? ”

The young man on the opposite side frowned slightly and hesitated slightly: "Your Majesty summoned someone from the Criminal Department early in the morning, and Su Ying was left by him in the Zijiao Hall to discuss matters together. ”

"The Criminal Department?"

Xiao Yuehuai was puzzled: "Didn't my father already hand over this case to Dali Temple for investigation?" Why did you call the people from the Criminal Department again? ”

Yuanyu Chuan said: "Because this morning, the assassin that Lu Pingsheng caught in the mountains and forests is the head of the Lu family in Shanggu County, the head of the cold door, Lu Yin. ”

Xiao Yuehuai froze, and her black pupils dilated suddenly: "How... How so? Why did the Usayani Lu do to assassinate me? Is there some misunderstanding in this? ”

She didn't expect that she covered up Su Ying and Xun Chong so much last night, and in the end she still failed to keep the Lu father and daughter, and still let them fall into the hands of Lu Pingsheng.

Yuan Yuchuan shook his head and said: "I also think it's strange, but that Lu Yin does have a letter of conspiracy with Yepingguo, which clearly says that he will kill you in the empty green garden, but unfortunately he has been shot by Lu Pingsheng on the spot." ”

"This matter involves the cold door and is a little strange, if the case is sloppily closed, I am afraid it will hurt the hearts of the world's scholars, and it must be investigated before it can be announced to the world. In this way, people can only be sent to Ueya County. That's why His Majesty summoned the Ministry of Punishment. ”

"Shoot... Shoot? ”

Xiao Yuehuai gasped: "Are all the people of the Lu family dead?" ”

Yuanyu Chuan was stunned: "What does Ah Huai mean by this?" Have you seen the rest of the Lu family? ”

Xiao Yuehuai disguised: "I want to... Lu Yin wouldn't do this kind of thing by himself to commit the crime of killing his head and committing a capital crime, right? ”

"There is only Lu Yin's corpse in the forest."

Yuan Yuchuan retracted his gaze: "This matter is very strange. As you said, since Lu Yin conspired with Yeping Kingdom, he really shouldn't come alone. But he was the only one who died, and no one from the Lu family was found in the whole mountain. Rather than saying that the Lu family has the intention of rebellion, it is better to guess that someone wants to use this matter to deliberately plant a false accusation and sow discord between the Hanmen and the Wang family. ”

Xiao Yuehuai was faintly uneasy: "Father... Who did you send to Chalu's house? ”

Yuanyuchuan said: "Qi Yue." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuehuai couldn't help but feel excited.

In the previous life, the Lu father and daughter died in the Huai River, and when they were fished up, they were soaked to the bones, and the criminal department relied on their clothes and jade pendants to guess the identities of the two. At that time, Qi Yue also went to Shanggu County to investigate and verify, and learned that Lu's father and daughter had been missing for a long time, so it was confirmed that the two bones fished out of the river were indeed Lu Yin and his daughter.

But that's half a year later, and it's happening now...

How could it suddenly be so much earlier?

And there is only Lu Yin's corpse in the forest, indicating that his daughter is very likely to be alive, which is also completely different from her previous life.

She lowered her head and pondered: Could it be because she had changed the situation of the Purple Pavilion? But in the previous life, the death of the Lu family's father and daughter was obviously committed by the Dayu secret agent, and it had nothing to do with the assassination of Changjing Mountain...

Could it be that this is not the case?

Thinking of Lu Pingsheng's step-by-step pressing on Su Ying and Xun Chong's desperate protection of Lu's father and daughter, she suddenly had a direction:

The biggest variable in this is Su Ying.

Assuming that in the previous life, the Lu family's father and daughter were killed by the Lu family, and were secretly thrown into the Huai River by the Lu family to destroy the corpses, and the bones would be found after half a year.

In this life, because of the appearance of Su Ying, the Lu family's conspiracy to kill the Lu family's father and daughter was exposed, although they failed to save Lu Yin in the end, it also changed the trajectory of the previous life, so that what would happen half a year later was advanced. In order to silence and cover up the facts, the Lu family could only forge the letter of collusion between Lu Yin and Yeping Guo, and frame the Lu family to divert everyone's attention.

It was probably the most plausible conjecture she could think of.

It's just that what kind of festival does the Lu family have with the Lu family and the Lu family? Lu Pingsheng has to kill them all?

And also... Su Ying.

With him, Xiao Yuehuai has a sense of powerlessness that she has lost control of reality.

What changed to make Su Ying suddenly appear in her world?
