Xiu Ya said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, Madame and the little young master will definitely be able to escape this catastrophe, we will definitely find them! Also, the concubines in this palace can have such great ability and origin, and there are only three or four people who have come and gone to do such things, I am investigating their recent movements, and I will definitely be able to find out the real culprit behind the scenes in a few days, and I will be angry for Mrs. and the little young master, please take care of the dragon body, and wait for the news ......for the time being."

Long Yuanli looked tired: "I know, you go all out to investigate this matter, you can do whatever you want, you can do as many manpower and power as you want, you must ensure the safety of the mother and son, and severely punish the real murderer......"

Xiu Ya nodded, went down first, Long Yuanli held on to the trunk of the tree, looked at the dim crescent moon, and remorse rose in his heart: if he had realized the situation of their mother and son earlier, if he had been more cautious, more thoughtful, and more closely protected, maybe, maybe these things would not have happened......

In the next few days, he suffered from the wind and cold, and lay in the house for a few days, staying at home, and even the government did not pay attention to it, and every day he only hoped to find Bian Xin's mother and son and catch the real murderer.

After all, the power and ability of the imperial court were big enough, and within a few days, Xiu Ya caught the suspect: "Your Majesty, after careful investigation and several witnesses, it can be determined that the main messenger behind this fire is Concubine Ying!"

"Concubine Ying?" Long Yuanli took a few seconds to react, surprised, "You mean Concubine Ying who only entered the palace half a year ago?"

If it weren't for Xiu Ya mentioning this name, he would have forgotten who this woman was! Concubine Ying is the daughter of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and her father controls the 100,000 elite soldiers guarding the capital, so naturally she is also a big family, and it is not impossible for such a woman to do such a thing.

Xiu Ya nodded: "The minister said that the concubines in the palace can have arson motives and this ability, but there are only three or four people, and the minister has conducted an in-depth investigation of these three or four people, and Concubine Ying is the most suspicious." After Concubine Ying entered the palace, in order to get close to the emperor, she tried her best to put a lot of eyeliner on all sides of the Zhenghe Palace, and also used many means to buy the servants around the emperor, which has been confirmed...... Match"

This bastard woman, and these bastard minions! Long Yuanli's hand squeezing the cup, faintly bursting out of his muscles, he thought that he was surrounded by some loyal minions, but he didn't expect that there were still people who were bought! There are really few people in this palace who can be trusted!

Xiu Ya said: "At the same time, the minister also found out that Concubine Ying sent her henchmen out of the palace from time to time to secretly contact her mother's family, and every time she left the palace, it took more than two or three hours, and her behavior was extremely suspicious. The minister thought of a lot of ways, and found out from the maids in Concubine Ying's palace that Concubine Ying was extremely concerned about the emperor's whereabouts, and often talked secretly with her henchmen behind her back......

Bang - Long Yuanli angrily smashed the cup to the ground, gritting his teeth: "This slut! I want to destroy her nine clans!" You centaurs sent people to arrest this woman, threw all the minions in her palace into the prison, and interrogated them overnight, so that they have to regret it......

Xiu Ya waited for him to finish before shaking his head: "The emperor is calm! Although the minister can be sure that Concubine Ying did it, there is no conclusive evidence......

Horn-Long Yuanli picked up a cup, smashed it over, and said angrily: "Didn't you say that you have found a witness? Why do you say that there is no evidence? Are you fooling me?"

Xiu Ya said: "The minister has found witnesses, but these witnesses are just small minions, and I don't know how many layers are separated from Concubine Ying, even if they can point to the top, I am afraid they will not be able to point to Concubine Ying! If Concubine Ying is directly arrested, and Concubine Ying denies it to death, I am afraid that it will cause discussion among the government and the public, and the emperor will be passive ......."

Long Yuanli stared at him coldly: "Then what do you say?"

Xiu Ya said: "Look at the minister, be silent, and find another crime to let Concubine Ying be punished!"

Long Yuanli sneered: "Let me ask you, does the commander of the Imperial Forest Army know the good deeds his daughter has done?"

Xiu Ya said: "Commander Sima has been training recruits in the suburbs recently, and he has not returned to Beijing for several months, so he should not know about it, but he has no way to teach his daughter, and it is difficult to blame him for arsoning with women's crimes! I also heard that his daughter has been in and out of the army since she was a child, and she also has her own connections in the army, and several witnesses caught by the minister this time are soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, who have been haunted at the mouth of the alley several times, and when they were tortured, they flatly denied being instructed by others, but the minister has checked, their boss and Concubine Ying are old acquaintances, and have a personal affair with Concubine Ying's henchman, and Concubine Ying cannot get out of the relationship......

Long Yuanli said coldly: "But there is no direct evidence to prove that Concubine Ying is the culprit, right?"

He suddenly burst out laughing, and after laughing for a while, he suddenly closed his voice, his eyes narrowed, and his face was ruthless: "What is the difficulty of getting rid of a concubine and a commander of the Imperial Forest Army? As long as I want to find it, as long as I want to do it, I can find a heavier crime at any time and make her suffer for the rest of her life!"

For two hours, the two had been talking secretly in the room, and then Xiu Ya walked out, and the emperor went to bed to rest.

In the next few days, what happened was like acting, first the Commander of the Imperial Forest Army Sima broke out the scandal of abusing recruits, embezzlement and bribery, buying and selling officials, and forming a party for personal gain, and then broke out the scandal of his daughter Yingfei who had entered the palace and the guards, which caused a sensation in the court and the capital.

The imperial court reacted quickly, the emperor ordered the criminal department to thoroughly and strictly investigate, and after a check, the news was conclusive, so Commander Sima was removed from his post and confiscated his home, and Concubine Ying was sent to the cold palace, and it didn't take long for the emperor to punish severely, and all the Sima family were demoted to official slaves and assigned to the frontier, and Concubine Ying was also disfigured because of an accidental fire in the cold palace, and her life will be spent in endless loneliness.

The Sima clan suddenly underwent drastic changes, falling from the clouds into hell, although the so-called evidence, but the government and the opposition secretly understand that the people in this court, if you want to investigate, everyone is guilty, and if you don't check, everyone is honest, and the Sima family suffered this disaster, I am afraid that they have offended the emperor, as for what they offended the emperor, this is another secret.

After taking revenge, Long Yuanli did not have a trace of joy and relief, but only felt that his heart was becoming more and more empty.

It's been nearly a month, he has almost searched inside and outside the capital, and expanded the scope of the search, but there is still no news of Bian Xin's mother and son, he personally interrogated Concubine Ying, and Concubine Ying finally admitted that she secretly sent someone to set fire to the emperor because she suspected and was jealous of the emperor's favored woman outside, but flatly denied kidnapping and imprisoning Bian Xin's mother and son, insisting that she didn't know who the emperor's woman was.

The whole family is already on the knife edge, Concubine Ying does not dare to lie, and the body of the baby was not found at the scene of the fire.

The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't sleep, so he got up in his clothes and walked out of the palace alone to the alley.

The alley has been cleaned up and turned into a flat land, and the smoke of gunpowder has long since dissipated.

If a qiē can be repeated, he will cherish this qiē doubly, and will never let this qiē slip through his fingers, but, is there still a chance? Does he still have a chance to cherish it?

It was a long, long time before he coughed lightly and slowly walked back to the palace.

After that, he came here almost every night, hoping that one day he would see the mother and son here.

And in the harem, not long after the Concubine Ying incident, a sensational incident suddenly broke out: Concubine Yun suddenly hanged herself, and only left a suicide note before committing suicide, claiming that she was guilty and sorry for the emperor, so she could only apologize with death!

Yun Concubine is gentle and virtuous, after entering the palace, she is very regular, her popularity is quite good, and she really can't see any signs of wanting to die, and on the eve of suicide, she was also called by the emperor to go to the Zhenghe Palace to sleep, which is a very enviable thing, but why did she suddenly hang herself?

There was a lot of talk in the palace, but no one knew what had happened to her - and this was just one of the countless mysteries and mysteries in the harem!

After the emperor knew about this, he didn't say anything, but just named her a concubine, buried her thickly, and promoted her father to a knight, and gave her a mansion Meitian.

For Long Yuanli, whether the concubines in the palace are dead or alive has nothing to do with him, and the only woman he cares about is just the one named Bian Xin.

In the evening, after dealing with the political affairs, he picked up his clothes again and was about to go there for a walk, but Xiu Ya suddenly stopped him, knelt in front of him, and said, "Your Majesty, the little one has something to ask for!"

He stared at Xiu Ya: "What are you doing here?" I have already given you not to kneel, stand up and speak!"

Xiu Ya rarely kneels, and rarely has a solemn face, if he kneels with a solemn face, he must say something he doesn't want to hear!

Xiu Ya didn't stand up, but with a handsome face, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to resign from the palace, please ask the emperor for permission!"

"......" Long Yuanli's somewhat haggard face suddenly became terrifying, and after staring at him for a long time, he suddenly grabbed his neckline, lifted him up, and said coldly, word by word, "What did you say?

Xiu Ya still looked dead: "Your Majesty, the night before yesterday, I was discovered...... I pretended to be the emperor and was discovered by Concubine Yun, so she committed suicide......"

100 dense and one sparse. In the early hours of that morning, Yun Concubine got up early, sat by the window and watched him, he overslept, and only got up at dawn, and when he got up, he didn't notice her, so he habitually went to open the curtain, so she saw him clearly and clearly.

He's done this countless times, not once, not once, not once, but this time...... He thought he would never forget that young, beautiful, shocked, sad face, a face that was like a whip that whipped his heart all the time, and he couldn't sleep for days, couldn't laugh anymore, couldn't act as if nothing had happened.
