Chapter 32: The Ins and Outs

"I think that Yang Siji's purpose for entering the palace is not simple. Everyone thought the same way, Yang Siji, who sent me to greet him that day. Qiu Gongwu said.

"Everyone?" Zhao Guizhen said in surprise.

As surprised as Zhao Guizhen, there was Lan Yin.

Sure enough, the moment she entered the palace, she was already caught in the whirlpool of palace struggle.

"The Empress Dowager hasn't been in charge of the affairs of the inner court for many years, but this time she made an exception to recruit female officials, and this Yang Siji doesn't have a good name."

"Then why did everyone agree that Yang Rong would enter the palace to be the secretary of the sixth grade?" Zhao Guizhen was puzzled.

"It's not related to Zhaoyi Town, Yang Yin was killed by Zhaoyi Town, his orphan, if the imperial court can treat him well, won't it also encourage front-line soldiers."

Lan Yin, who was fishing in the corner of the eaves, only then did she understand the twists and turns of her entry into the palace, it turned out that she had a different mind, so why not others?

"Master Zhao, I can't stay here for long. In short, now the refiner should still make plans early. The outer court and the inner court all have a lot of opinions about the refiner. ”

"Thank you for the reminder."

"The refiner stays, our family has gone, everyone is still waiting for the elixir."

The footsteps gradually faded away, and Lan Yin hung upside down, waiting for Qiu Gongwu to walk out of Wangxiantai, but he didn't wait.

"Don't wait, he's out on the other side."

Zhao Guizhen lay on the windowsill, looked at Lan Yin who was hanging upside down, and gloated.

Lan Yin worked her waist and abdomen, grabbed her hand upward, kicked her feet towards the eaves wall, and jumped in front of Zhao Guizhen with a vertical leap.

"How did you find out it was mine?"

Zhao Guizhen was taken aback by her light skills, and couldn't help but take a step back and look at her suspiciously.

"Who are you?"

"Yang Rong. Who could I be otherwise? ”

Zhao Guizhen was noncommittal, and said: "Cui Yuanzao knows? ”

"Yes." Lan Yin slipped into Wangxiantai, "You haven't answered me yet, how did you find me?" ”

"Shoes."

"Shoes?"

Lan Yin looked at his shoes, they were ordinary black boots!

"Don't you know? The shoes in the palace have a standard, and you can use whatever shoes you are. ”

"There are not a few people in the palace who are of the same grade as me, right?"

"But before you entered the palace, I didn't find such a bold female official." Zhao Guizhen said sarcastically, "Cui Yuanzao lets people like you enter the palace, he really has a big heart." ”

Lan Yin snorted, she had to admit that she was really not careful enough, but Zhao Guizhen's eyes were too good.

"Why did Cui Yuanzao let you enter the palace?" Zhao Guizhen put away his alchemy tools.

Of course, Lan Yin couldn't tell Zhao Guizhen her true purpose, she thought for a while and said, "Do you know the painter case of Zhao Jinggong Temple?" ”

"Wasn't it broken by Cui Yuanzao?"

"Not really. The murderer of the painter Lu Qian was found, but the murderer died inexplicably, and Cui Yuanzao suspected that the mastermind behind the scenes was hiding in the palace, so let me take a look. Lan Yin is very satisfied with his performance.

Zhao Guizhen motioned for Lan Yin to sit down, made her a cup of tea, and said, "Why does Cui Yuanzao suspect that the mastermind behind the scenes is in the palace, you tell me, maybe I can help." ”

Lan Yin was a little surprised, Zhao Guizhen was cold every time he saw him, and he never gave her a good face, why was he kind to her today?

The only difference this time was that he found out that she knew martial arts and doubted her identity.

In other words, what he hates is Yang Rong, or does he hate Yang Rong's identity?

"What is the relationship between you and Cui Yuanzao?"

Lan Yin also asked Cui Yuanzao the same question that day, but Cui Yuanzao did not answer her directly.

"We're both teachers and friends."

Lan Yin saw the slight smile on Zhao Guizhen's face, and couldn't help but stand on end, shouldn't he be jealous of Yang Rong?

"You haven't told me yet, what does Cui Yuanzao want to check in the palace?" Zhao returned to the truth and preached.

"Why didn't you ask him yourself?" Lan Yin muttered, but when she saw Zhao Guizhen slashing at her, she immediately shut up.

"I have made too many enemies in this Daming Palace, Cui Yuanzao is close to me, it is not good for him, not to mention that he is a child of the Cui clan of Qinghe, and his uncle will not want him to get too close to me."

I don't know if this Zhao Guizhen is self-explanatory or explaining to Lan Yin.

"We traced down an object, called the concave and convex mirror, which should be from the Daming Palace. The concave-convex mirrors are a pair, one of which flowed out of the Daming Palace by Ma Yuanzhen, and the other was used by the murderer behind the scenes, so we want to know who brought the other concave-convex mirror out of the Daming Palace. Lan Yin explained a little about the beginning and end of the painter's case.

"I knew that he was like this, always obsessed with the truth, and it was clear that for people like us, the truth is often the most useless thing." Zhao Guizhen smiled slightly.

Lan Yin didn't understand well.

Zhao Guizhen saw that Lan Yin seemed to understand or not, so he said: "Why am I telling you this, in short, I will help pay attention to it." ”

Lan Yin thanked her, but Zhao Guizhen didn't forget to interrogate her.

"Why did you come to my place today to look at Sendai? You can't suspect that I'm the murderer behind the painter's case, right? ”

"Of course not." Lan Yin hurriedly denied it.

Looking at Zhao Guizhen's appearance, it seems that she is very willing to help Cui Yuanzao solve the case, she thinks that maybe she can use this reason to trick Zhao Guizhen into helping her?

"Wangxiantai is the highest place in Daming Palace, so I want to climb to the top, look down on Daming Palace, remember the layout of Daming Palace, and find out the time route map of Jinwuwei's patrol."

"What do you want to do?" Zhao Guizhen said vigilantly.

Lan Yin realized that she wanted to find out the records of the entry and exit of the inner treasury property, and she could do it by using the convenience of her current position, and there was no need to do such a risky thing now, so how could she explain the matter of climbing Sendai tonight?

"Yang Siji?"

"Ah, these days, I went deep into this Daming Palace, only to feel that this place is dangerous, if I can't retreat in the future, plan the route in advance, with my skills, break out of the Daming Palace, or it is also one of the ways to retreat."

When Lan Yin said it, he only thought about how to explain how he looked at Sendai in private, but he felt sad, maybe this is the only way for him in the future, and he doesn't know it.

"You don't have to. Since Cui Yuanzao asked you to come here, he will definitely protect you. You can trust him as a man. ”

Zhao Guizhen completely regarded her as Cui Yuanzao's subordinate, right? Lan Yin didn't know how to explain, and she didn't want to explain, so she only smiled slightly, "I hope so." ”

Zhao Guizhen looked at Lan Yinyi's appearance and instructed: "Today is the one who discovers you, tomorrow or someone else, if you are discovered, it will not cause him trouble." This place is the place where I am alchemizing, but just like today's Qiu Gongwu, the people who come in and out are all people around everyone, once they are discovered, you and Cui Yuanzao are all catastrophic, you better live in peace, just finish what he explained. ”

Lan Yin knew that she couldn't achieve her goal today, and she didn't want to stay any longer, so she said goodbye and turned around.

Before leaving, she remembered what Qiu Gongwu said about Concubine Guo Xian's conspiracy to purify Meizhu, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but remind Zhao Guizhen: "You'd better find a way to refuse Concubine Guo Xian's errand to purify Meizhu." ”

Zhao Guizhen smiled and said, "Thank you, but you don't have to worry, I have my own solution." ”
