Wen Yuan wondered what kind of deal could make a second-rate person who wandered on the street all day scared, and would make a woman who seemed weak to kill her husband.

She was curious and Shen Huaiyan was even more curious, "So, what kind of deal is it?" ”

At the mention of this transaction, it was obvious that the man was also involved, otherwise his expression would not have been so frightened.

Neither of them seemed reluctant to mention the man who had made the deal with them, "This...... If we say it, it's over......"

"But if you don't say it, it's over, and it's better to fall into the hands of people than into the hands of demons."

Hearing Shen Huaiyan say this, the two hesitated for a while and finally told him the truth.

The woman trembled as Shen Huaiyan's side, "That's the case, that day my father-in-law went home and said that a father-in-law in the palace found him and asked him to find a way to kill his companion who made trouble every day and throw it at the gate of the Dingnan Palace, and then arouse the public opinion of everyone, so that he would pay my father-in-law a good reward and send him out of the capital." ”

"But it's okay for my husband to do something like stealing chickens and dogs, and he won't dare to let him do such a big thing of killing people and setting fires, but I don't know why that father-in-law seems to recognize my father-in-law, saying that he will give him a few days to think about it."

"When I heard about this, let my husband next, anyway, there are a lot of dirty things in this capital, and this one is not bad, and you can make money, just to improve the living situation of the family, I didn't expect him to be so afraid that he didn't even go to the gate of the palace to spread rumors, and every day when he came home, he knew to drink, and he relied on me to sell bowls and cakes to support him."

Speaking of this, the woman sighed in disappointment, "I had enough of such days, so I went to the gate of the palace and waited there according to the bus, and soon my father-in-law took the initiative to find me, and when he heard that I was going to kill my husband, he admired my courage and promised to give me double the silver as long as the matter was done, and then he found the herb shop recommended by my father-in-law and bought a poison that is rare in the world." ”

But the woman thought it strange, and she hid outside to observe, and found that the shopkeeper seemed to be eager to give the poison into the hands of her man.

Although she didn't say anything about it, Wen Yuan also saw what was hidden in her expression, Wen Yuan flew to Shen Huaiyan's side and whispered in his ear: "She must have hidden something, if you ask again, just ask about the medicine shop."

Shen Huaiyan said to the woman next to him when he heard this: "Are you still hiding something?" I advise you to hurry up and say, I knew that the demon clan had a lot of means. ”

Hearing his questioning, the woman thought to herself, this man is really powerful, "That's it...... I was lazy outside when he went to buy the poison, and I found the shopkeeper very excited, as if he couldn't wait to sell the poison. ”

"Well, yes, go ahead."

"Next, I followed my father-in-law's instructions to give my father-in-law medicine, but the medicine was very strange, I obviously watched him eat it with my own eyes, but there was no poison, I thought we were deceived by the shopkeeper of the medicine shop, until the next day my father-in-law went to the palace to find trouble, I knew that the poison had a relatively long onset. Before that, I had already used the money my father-in-law gave me to buy off the people in the government, including the company, so I would say that my husband died of a sudden illness. ”

It turned out that the whole thing was so simple, but Wen Yuan and Shen Huaiyan both discovered a more important problem, that is, the father-in-law in this palace must have been instructed by the emperor.

But...... The relationship in the palace is complicated, and it is not necessarily the emperor, but at present, Wen Yuan is most suspicious of the old emperor.

They were about to say something when the door to the room was violently kicked open.

Several people saw Shen Huaiyan sitting next to the table and was stunned for a moment, and then left immediately.

"It seems that I don't know if I want to kill you."

The two of them were very scared when they heard Shen Huaiyan's words, and the man's voice trembled when he thought of what happened just now, "That's ...... That...... Why kill us, didn't we get things done? ”

Shen Huaiyan instantly felt that the person in front of him was a fool, "Because you know too many things, if this kind of thing is poked out, it will be a royal face, understand?" ”

"So what should we do now? Childe, I beg you, save us. ”

Save you? Shen Huaiyan's eyes were dangerous, thinking that it was too late for me to kill you, and I would save you.

Wen Yuan floated beside him again at this time and urged: "You ask what that father-in-law looks like."

"What does that father-in-law look like?"

After asking the woman, she recalled, "A little thin and a little old, I see that those guards respect him very much, and call him Grandpa Zhang." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Yuan automatically matched her, and there was only one father-in-law Zhang who could be treated politely in the palace, and that was the father-in-law beside the Queen Mother.

But since the death of the Queen Mother, I heard that he didn't return to his hometown to retire? How could he suddenly appear in the palace......

Wen Yuan felt that the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, anyway, now that the matter is almost investigated, these two people have no use value, "Let's go, don't waste it with them." ”

But as soon as Shen Huaiyan was about to leave, the woman behind hugged his leg, "Uncle, don't go, you are the only one who can save us now." ”

"You tell me this, I am already very kind to you if I don't kill you, as for what to do next, it's up to you."

After speaking, Shen Huaiyan turned around and left with Wen Yuan.

On the way back to the capital, Wen Yuan and Shen Huaiyan analyzed the question just now, "Father-in-law Zhang is an old man in the palace and has always been by the side of the Queen Mother, but after the Queen Mother passed away, I heard that he received a lot of rewards from the old emperor and returned to his hometown to support his old age, how could he appear in the palace again." ”

"Maybe it's just an excuse to cover people's eyes, and when I go back, I will personally go to the palace to investigate which palace he is working in now."

After dark that day, Shen Huaiyan sneaked into the palace with Wen Yuan, and the two didn't expect to meet Gonggong Zhang as soon as they came.

Maybe it's because the news of Wen Yuan's death has been known to the public, so these people in the palace are also a little unscrupulous.

Even the royal palace has not recovered from that disaster, and some of the palaces are still being repaired.

"Now that Wen Yuan is dead, it will be more convenient for us to deal with the king of Dingnan, father-in-law." The little eunuch on the side said sinisterly.

That father-in-law Zhang has only now revealed his true colors, "Yes, now that the virtuous concubine is in power, deal with the king of Dingnan first, and the old emperor will be able to clean it up." ”

What? A virtuous concubine in power? Wen Yuan frowned when she heard this, she turned her head to Shen Huaiyan and said, "Huaiyan, you go back first, even if there is a stealth technique, it is not convenient, I will follow them."

But Shen Huaiyan disagreed, "Even if you are a soul now, people with high strength can still detect your subordination, if you trap you with a formation, you will appear, so I must follow, otherwise if you are caught, you will not have the demonic power to get out alone." ”

Hearing him say this, Wen Yuan didn't argue anymore, "That's okay, you should be careful." ”

In fact, Shen Huaiyan was careless, and the formations arranged by the demon catchers in this palace couldn't trap him.

The two followed Gonggong Zhang all the way to the palace of the virtuous concubine, and as soon as they entered, they saw a woman feeding fish by the pond, looking very leisurely.

"Hui Guifei, it has been removed."

Concubine Xiangui's hand feeding the fish food paused for a while, and she raised her eyes to look at Gonggong Zhang, "Dead?" ”

"yes, and our people left the body in a place where no one else could find it." Father-in-law Zhang's expression at this time was even more grim than just now.

The woman raised her hand, and the palace maid next to her stuffed a cloth-covered tray to Grandpa Zhang, "Good job." ”

Gonggong Zhang hesitated when he accepted those things, and was seen by Concubine Xian, "What's wrong?" Say something if you have something. ”

"Our people said that when they found this pair of people, they saw Shen Huaiyan talking to them."

Hearing Shen Huaiyan's three words, the movement in the woman's hand stopped instantly, "Is that man embarrassed by the people sent out by the palace?" ”

"That's not true, our people immediately exited the room when they saw him inside, and then after they left, our people did it."

After Gonggong Zhang finished speaking, the virtuous concubine lowered her head and pondered for a while, "This palace understands, Shen Huaiyan went to the Dingnan Palace, the man who made trouble died in the palace, and now the entire capital is rumored that the King of Dingnan found someone to kill him and covered up the truth, and that Shen Huaiyan has a deep affection for Wen Yuan, he just wants to seek justice for the King of Dingnan." ”

"Do we need to do that?"

"No, we are not the opponents of the demon clan in any case, and we will try to avoid Shen Huaiyan in the future, but now our goal has been achieved, thanks to Wen Yuan, who blew himself up."

Objective? What purpose?

Seeing that they didn't continue to talk, Wen Yuan was anxious, Shen Huaiyan suddenly used demon magic to control Gonggong Zhang, and he suddenly spoke: "Does the noble concubine mean the purpose of making the people lower their trust in the king of Dingnan?"

"Not bad. After Wen Yuan's death, King Dingnan was immersed in grief all day long, and he didn't care about the affairs of the Dragon Kingdom at all, and now the people of the capital no longer trust King Dingnan, as long as there is no God of War, the Dragon Kingdom is the palace. ”

No one thought that her ambition would be so big, everyone thought that the virtuous concubine wanted to seek the throne for her son, but she didn't expect that she wanted to ascend to the sky in one step and become the empress who controlled the world.

Looking at Gonggong Zhang's expression, Concubine Xian suddenly asked a very dangerous question, "How do you feel about serving this palace?" ”

Father-in-law Zhang broke out in a cold sweat at this time, but he didn't dare to reach out and wipe it, "Cannibalism and loyalty are things, slaves are born to be slaves, as long as the master is happy, the slave will definitely do his best." ”

This answer is self-defeating in the ears of Concubine Xian, but there is no way, now she needs this eunuch, so let's leave him with a cheap life for the time being, "Okay, you can step down." ”

After Father-in-law Zhang left, the palace maid next to Concubine Xian said: "Concubine, why don't we do it now, he knows too much, if someone else knows......"

"It doesn't matter, this kind of person will definitely be eliminated in the future, and this Zhang Yu's oily tone has never been liked by the palace, so the fool of the Queen Mother can tolerate him staying by his side."

Hearing this, Wen Yuan couldn't do it angrily, what is the fool of the Queen Mother, "If the Queen Mother is still here, how can this Dragon Kingdom be controlled by a woman!" I think she's a fool. ”
