East Palace.

After killing people, Tong Zhuo returned to the dormitory, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Taiqing had already begun to drink alcohol alone, and the whole person became a little depressed.

"Your Highness is in a bad mood?"

Tong Zhuo hesitated for a moment and asked with concern.

"This palace seems to be sick, and when I don't see him for one day, I begin to think about him in my heart, and I don't see him for two days, and my soul is not guarded, and I can't sleep when I don't see him for three days."

Li Jingyao smiled bitterly, sighed, and directly picked up the wine jug and poured it up.

"Your Highness said it, but Wuji Gongzi?"

Tong Zhuo asked hesitantly.

"Who else could it be but him?"

Li Jingyao said helplessly.

From the first time she saw Wuji Gongzi, she was inexplicably moved, but through the beginning and end of the two meetings, he could see that Wuji Gongzi had no interest in her, and he couldn't even take the initiative to show favor to her.

How could she have been so ignored?

Looking at the capital, which man is not vying to be included in this East Palace?

But the more Wuji Gongzi is like this, the more she can't let go.

Listening to Li Jingyao's answer, Tong Zhuo frowned slightly, for some reason, he never fully trusted Wuji Gongzi from beginning to end, because he could always sense a trace of danger in Wuji Gongzi's body for no reason.

Perhaps, it came from his instinctive instincts!

"Your Highness, I heard that Prince Wuji has opened a new gambling house in the capital, and it is open opposite Tu Jiu's Changsheng gambling house, standing opposite each other."

Tong Zhuo thought about it again and again, but decided to tell Taiqing the news.

"Really?!"

Hearing Tong Zhuo's words, Li Jingyao's eyes lit up, and she asked in surprise, her eyes seemed to show a hint of joy.

"It's true, the lowly post was also heard when I went out of the palace to run an errand for His Royal Highness, I heard that the business was very prosperous, and Tu Jiu also went to make trouble once, but he was easily sent away by Wuji Gongzi, and it is estimated that the two of them are considered to be deep."

Tong Zhuo nodded and said.

"How did he suddenly become so high-profile? Don't wait for the good Nine Nether Realm, and go to the capital to open a gambling house, this is to win the Nine Nether Realm, and you want to take Tu Jiu again? ”

Li Jingyao said thoughtfully, with a hint of curiosity on her face.

"Does Your Highness know where his gambling house was?"

Tong Zhuo asked slowly.

"Tell me about it."

Li Jingyao asked curiously.

"Qingfeng Restaurant is the same restaurant where Prince Wuji asked His Highness to meet three days ago."

Tong Zhuo replied seriously.

"Things seem to be getting more and more interesting."

"Dare to argue with Tu Jiu, he may be the first one in the capital, right?"

When Li Jingyao heard this, she couldn't help laughing and asked with interest.

"That's right, maybe he doesn't know that Tu Jiu has an intricate relationship in the capital, and this time he is afraid that he will be kicked on the iron plate."

Tong Zhuo said with a smile, seemingly gloating.

"Bengu doesn't think so, if they really go to war, Bengu bets that he can win!"

"Thinking about it like this, Hongu suddenly began to look forward to it."

Li Jingyao thought about it and said meaningfully, and the figure of Wuji Gongzi appeared in her mind again.

Tong Zhuo glanced at Taiqing, who was a little intoxicated, moved his lips, and stopped talking.

"By the way, the Qianguo Mission is about to enter Beijing, right?"

Li Jingyao was silent for a moment, and then asked again.

"Back to Your Highness, you should already be on the way, and on the fifteenth of this month, you should be able to reach the capital."

Tong Zhuo thought for a moment and replied slowly.

After listening to this, Li Jingyao nodded lightly, slowly leaned on the couch, thinking about something, her emotions had been completely eased, and the corners of her mouth were always smiling.

...

Cloud Palace.

The empress reclined on the couch, one hand on her forehead, and took a nap.

"Your Majesty, the official Shangshu and the old lady Xue, the mother of the Marquis of Liyang, are still kneeling outside the hall, no matter how much they persuade them to leave, they insist that Your Majesty administer justice for their late son."

Ye Han, the commander of the Red Fish Guard, walked in slowly, bowed his hand, and said softly.

Hearing Ye Han's words, the empress reluctantly raised her eyelids, and a trace of irritability appeared between her eyebrows again.

"What day is it?"

The empress rubbed her forehead and asked in a deep voice.

"Today is the third day, and it seems that if Your Majesty insists on not seeing the two of them, they will come back tomorrow."

Ye Han replied helplessly.

"I have all the opportunities, and I can't handle the affairs of the court, so how can I have the spare time to help them uphold justice? Hasn't the Five Elements Division already accepted the case of the two of them?! ”

The empress frowned and asked impatiently.

"That's true, but it seems that the Five Elements Division has not found any evidence, and it is impossible to find out who the murderer is."

"One is the son of Shangshu, and the other is the noble Liyang Marquis, not only were the two killed on the same night, but according to the conclusion of the autopsy, the time when these two people were killed was no more than half an hour, which is indeed a bit strange."

"Come to think of it, the murderer is by no means simple, and it is impossible to leave obvious clues."

Ye Han nodded and analyzed it slightly.

"Since the murderer can't be found, let the Five Elements Division find a way to launch a murderer, and you can't let the two of them come to bother me every day, right?!"

The empress narrowed her eyes and said in a deep voice.

"This matter is very important, and I am afraid that this murderer is not so easy to find, otherwise it will be difficult to be convincing."

Ye Han hesitated for a moment and said slowly.

Although the meaning of the empress's words was not stated, Ye Han had already understood the meaning.

"You go out and tell the two of them, just say that I already know, let them rest assured, I will definitely give them a satisfactory result!"

"Let them not come again tomorrow, or I will punish them for the crime of disrespect!"

The empress waved her hand and said impatiently.

"Yes."

Ye Han agreed and slowly withdrew from the main hall.

Watching Ye Han leave, the empress shook her head helplessly, it was expected that the relatives of the Marquis of Liyang would go to the palace to ask for a meeting, but she didn't expect that the son of the official Shangshu was also killed on the same night, and no clues have been found so far.

...

Next.

Las vegas.

A carriage slowly stopped in front of the building, and out of the carriage came a handsome young man dressed as a man, dressed in brocade and satin, and it was difficult to hide his innate nobility between his gestures.

A sword-wielding guard followed, always keeping a step away.

"Las Vegas?"

"What does that mean?"

The young man looked up at the plaque above his head, puzzled.

"Sounds like a language from the Western Regions?"

The guard shook his head, equally dazed.

"No matter, let's go in first."

The young man shook his head with a smile and walked towards the building.

The guards hurried to follow.

As soon as they stepped into the building, the two were surrounded by a cacophony of hundreds of gamblers on the first and second floors, all with their eyes shining and full of greed.

Immediately after, the two of them were attracted by the novelties on the table, and they looked left and right, and even the guards, who had always been silent and cold-faced, began to be interested.

At this moment, a middle-aged man slowly approached the two and saluted respectfully at the young man.

"Childe, please upstairs."

The middle-aged man saluted as he pointed to the stairs leading to the third floor and said respectfully.

It was Cao Zi'an.

The young man glanced at the guard beside him, shook his head helplessly and smiled, put his hands behind his back, and walked straight to the stairs.

Above the third floor, Li Wuji had already waited at the staircase.

"I've seen Your Highness."

After Cao Zi'an took the master and servant to the third floor, he bowed to Wuji and said hello with a smile.

"The palace is dressed like this, there are so many people downstairs, and you can still recognize it at a glance."

The young man shook his head helplessly and said with a smile.

This person is none other than Taiqing, who came out of curiosity, Li Jingyao.

"Your Highness's heroic posture can not be concealed by disguise."

Li Wuji said with a smile.

"You've changed!"

Listening to Li Wuji's words, Li Jingyao was stunned for a moment, then glanced up and down at Li Wuji, and said with some surprise.

"Oh? Where has changed? ”

Li Wuji asked with a smile.

"This is the first time you've been so good at talking in front of the palace, and you've started to pat the palace's ass, and you still say that you haven't changed?"

Li Jingyao said with a smile, the smile on her face couldn't be suppressed at all.

"Your Highness laughed."

"It's not convenient to talk here, so please come in and sit down."

Li Wuji smiled, pointed to his room, and said slowly.

Li Jingyao nodded, didn't say anything more, and walked out into the depths of the corridor, in a good mood.

It seems that as long as she sees Childe Wuji, she can forget all her troubles...
