The book continues from the above, and the last book said that Chu Mofeng ended his trip to Yizhou and led his men to Dingzhou, an important town in the north, but I didn't know that the girl Zitong, who had a relationship in Yizhou, also quietly followed Chu Mofeng to Dingzhou.

In the direction of the capital, a feast within the palace walls of Chang'an City kicked off, but Guo Jieyu's death made Li Shimin, who had no idea, instantly imprisoned. Because this matter was a royal scandal, under the recommendation of Mo Ziyao, the concubine of King Xian, Li Yuan immediately issued an order to recall Chu Mofeng, who was hunting in the outer heavens, in order to have Chu Mofeng thoroughly investigate the matter.

Chu Mofeng, who received the will and the letter from home, was worried about Li Shimin's safety, and immediately integrated his men and horses and set off to return to Chang'an.

After running for three days in a row, Chu Mofeng and the others smoothly entered Chang'an City from the Chunming Gate, and as soon as they entered the city gate, Chu Mofeng felt a solemn atmosphere, thinking that this could not be that His Majesty had beheaded Xiao Lizi, right? If this is the case, should he gather soldiers into the palace to ask His Majesty for the reason?

But after thinking about it, in addition to the two Tiance armies that he can command now, the rest of the soldiers under the command of the generals of the Tiance Mansion cannot be instructed by him in any way, these people only obey their own commanders, and their commanders only obey Li Shimin's orders. Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng stopped a passer-by, and asked eagerly: "Has anything happened in Chang'an in the past few days?"

Seeing that it was Chu Mofeng who stopped him, this passer-by immediately saluted Chu Mofeng first, "His Royal Highness King Qiqixian, there has been no major incident in the capital recently, if it is really a major event, it is a few more shops in the East and West City." ”

Chu Mofeng nodded when he heard this, and then turned to the people behind him and said, "Feiyan, you will send Zitong to Mishanna, the wine shop in Dongshi first, and the Tiance army will return to the original camp for repairs, and Zhen'er, the three of you will go back to the house with me." With Chu Mofeng's order, the team divided into three roads in the Chunming Gate and headed towards their respective destinations.

After returning to the mansion, Chu Mofeng came straight to Mo Ziyao's room, at this moment Mo Ziyao was teaching Chu Yuetong to learn pharmacological knowledge, as soon as Chu Mofeng entered the door, the mother and daughter hurriedly got up and saluted, Chu Mofeng saw this and first picked up Chu Yuetong, and then asked with a smile: "Has Yuetong been obediently learning things recently? Daddy has been out for so long, do you miss Daddy?"

Who knew that Chu Yuetong looked at Chu Mofeng with disgust, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Every time Daddy goes out on an errand, he doesn't take Yuetong with him, and Yuetong also wants to go out with Daddy." ”

After putting Chu Yuetong on the ground, Chu Mofeng nodded with a smile and said, "Cheng, as long as your mother agrees, next time your father will take all four of you sisters and brothers with him." ”

Chu Yuetong nodded vigorously when she heard this, and then ran straight to Mo Ziyao's side, and was about to open her mouth when she saw Mo Ziyao smile and said, "Yuetong, let your aunt Zhaozhao take you to your aunt, your father has something to talk to me." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Zhao Zhao slowly walking over and giving a salute to Chu Mofeng, Chu Mofeng said with a little joking when he saw this: "I haven't seen Zhao Zhao for a few years, and he has grown into a big girl? ”

The words made Zhao Zhao's cheeks red, and he dragged Chu Yuetong to run away, and after the two left, Mo Ziyao glanced at Chu Mofeng angrily, "You, how can you talk like this when you have become a virtuous king, these five big girls in our mansion are high-minded, why can't you marry casually, right?"

"Don't make a fuss, let's get down to business, and tell me again what you saw that day. Who knew that Chu Mofeng didn't seem to be interested in these words, but just sat next to Mo Ziyao, eager to know the situation that day.

"The deceased is Guo Jieyu, who lives in Feng Yaxuan, the cause of death is strangled to death, and there are no other obvious traces of struggle on her body, it can be seen that it must be an acquaintance who committed the crime, and she is holding a pendant of His Royal Highness King Qin in her hand. Recalling the situation that night, Mo Ziyao still had palpitations at the moment.

"Cheng, you've worked hard these days, leave the rest to me, Li Lao Er was obviously framed, I will definitely find out about this matter, now is a critical period, and we can't afford to make the slightest mistake." Chu Mofeng nodded, turned around and left Mo Ziyao's room, as soon as he came out of the house, he saw Li Yuhu and Hua Ling'er coming together, as soon as he saw Chu Mofeng, Li Yuhu immediately threw himself into his arms and cried, "Husband, you must save the second brother, the concubine believes that the second brother will not do such a thing, since the father appointed you to investigate this matter thoroughly, then we might as well find someone to die." ”

Who knew that Chu Mofeng pulled Li Yuhu's shoulders up, and said with a cold face: "Feng'er, I hope you will say this kind of thing to me for the last time, the master once taught me that walking the rivers and lakes is the first word, since I have decided to investigate this matter thoroughly, then we must thoroughly find out the real culprit, return justice to the deceased, and prove the innocence of the wrongdoer, if I do such an unkind and unrighteous thing, my conscience will be ashamed." ”

Seeing this, Hua Ling'er on the side hurriedly whispered: "Sister Feng'er, let's go back first, we have to believe in the ability of the husband, you and I can only make trouble for the husband here this time, let's go." After speaking, he pulled Li Yuhu and left in a hurry.

Looking at the back of the two leaving, Chu Mofeng walked straight towards the gate, and when he came to the door, someone had already prepared the horses, Chu Mofeng turned over and got on the horse, and ran towards the direction of the palace.

Went straight to the Taiji Palace, under the guidance of Wang De, Chu Mofeng saw Li Yuan in the imperial study, and when he saw Chu Mofeng coming, Li Yuan's slightly lonely expression was suddenly swept away, "When did you return?"

"Your Majesty, the minister arrived in the capital at noon today. Looking at Li Yuan's slightly old face, Chu Mofeng hurriedly stepped forward to answer.

"I won't say anything superfluous, you will report to me later, you should also know what happened in the palace, I recalled you just so that I can quickly and thoroughly investigate this matter, but the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty and the emperor's relatives all knew about it, so this matter should not be delayed for too long. Looking at the thin young man in front of him, Li Yuan knew that this young man had been running back and forth for the Tang Dynasty for so many years, and he should have let him go out to relax in the name of hunting on behalf of the sky, but he still needed him to come back to solve problems for himself, thinking of this, Li Yuan sighed and said: "After this matter is over, I should also let you have a good rest, accompany your family more, this time you have any requirements during the investigation process, I will meet you, don't live up to my expectations." ”

Listening to Li Yuan's words, Chu Mofeng hurriedly saluted him, "Your Majesty, the minister has several requests that he wants His Majesty to know, first, the minister asks to see King Qin immediately and ask him about some things; second, the minister needs to enter Feng Yaxuan to inspect Guo Jieyu's relics; third, the minister needs to freely enter and exit all parts of the palace during the investigation of the case, but please rest assured that the minister will definitely not go to the place where he should not go; and fourth, before the final result, the minister hopes not to report to anyone for the time being. If His Majesty agrees to the above four points, the minister will immediately start working. ”

Chu Mofeng's four requirements made Li Yuan a little surprised, the first three were all reasonable, but this fourth, thinking of this, Li Yuan raised his head and looked at Chu Mofeng and said, "What is this fourth one?"

"Please forgive the minister for making bold remarks here, according to the minister's previous understanding of the King of Qin, the person who can do such a great rebellion will definitely not be him Li Shimin. Seeing that Li Yuan was skeptical of Article 4, Chu Mofeng thought to himself that I can't tell you, maybe this was done by your two unsuccessful sons, right? I don't dare to talk nonsense without evidence, lest those two fools make trouble again.

I saw Li Yuan sigh slowly, and then whispered: "I am approved, but I only give you a two-day deadline, if there is no result after two days, what I will do is clear to you, go and investigate the case quickly." ”

When Chu Mofeng heard this, he hurriedly said goodbye to Li Yuan, and then left the imperial study, walking in the long corridor leading to the outside of the hall, Wang De, who was in charge of guiding the way, suddenly whispered: " His Royal Highness King Xian, when the old slave found the body in the garden behind the Liangyi Hall that day, he also felt a little strange, this Guo Jieyu usually lived in Feng Yaxuan for a long time, why was she thrown in the dry well in the back garden, as for His Royal Highness King Qin, it seems that the relationship between His Royal Highness and the ladies in the harem is not very good, except for the noble concubine Niangniang who takes care of His Royal Highness King Qin, most of the rest of the Niangniang are closer to the prince and King Qi. ”

It seems that he didn't hear Wang De's remarks, Chu Mofeng passed the Yuehua Gate under his leadership, and came to a side room in the Qianqiu Palace, His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty is being detained here at the moment, in view of the fact that the matter has not been clarified, it is really unruly to be imprisoned, so Wang De led the forbidden army to bring Li Shimin here that day, nominally detained, but three meals a day and beds and bedding were all arranged thoughtfully.

Looking at Chu Mofeng who came in outside the door, Li Shimin hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his hand, "Are you back?"

"Your Majesty has entrusted me with a thorough investigation into the matter, so I must come to you first, and I need to know the circumstances of that night. Looking at Li Shimin, who was inexplicably involved in this matter in front of him, a few days of tossing and turning, so that Li Shimin's face still had stubble, and his originally bright eyes were also clouded at the moment.

When Li Shimin heard that this matter was investigated thoroughly by Chu Mofeng, he immediately understood that he would soon be able to see the light of day again, so he hurriedly told everything he knew that day, and then looked at Chu Mofeng anxiously and asked, "Will this prove my innocence?"

"Big brother, how did you get it?, how did you lose the jade gourd given by Your Majesty?" Chu Mofeng thought for a moment, and asked with some puzzlement: "When was the last time you saw this jade gourd pendant?"

"The last ......" Following Chu Mofeng's question, Li Shimin gradually began to recall, "The last time should be on the day of the banquet, I went back to the Chengqian Hall in the morning to change clothes and bathe, and then I didn't see this jade gourd pendant again." ”

"Cheng, I know, you can stay here with peace of mind, you take this, poke it into the meal every time you use the meal, and you can eat it without changing color. Chu Mofeng nodded, took out a silver needle from his arms and handed it to Li Shimin, and said worriedly: "I always feel that there are those two people in this matter, just in case, you should be careful these days." ”

Seeing this, Li Shimin nodded solemnly, and then patted Chu Mofeng's shoulder, "You should also be more careful, ensuring your own safety is the most important thing." ”

Chu Mofeng arched his hand at Li Shimin, turned around and left the Qianqiu Palace, and came straight to the outside of the hall, Chu Mofeng went to Feng Yaxuan to find out, and when he passed by Ling Xuan Pavilion, someone suddenly called for him, and turned around to see that this person turned out to be Li Yuhu's sister, Li Yue, who was also a princess, only to see Li Yue panting and running to Chu Mofeng, followed by a little maid.

Seeing Li Yue's arrival, Chu Mofeng hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, "Minister Chu Mofeng has seen Princess Danyang, I don't know what Her Royal Highness the princess commands?"

I saw Danyang Princess Li Yue snorting and laughing, and then stepped forward and whispered: "Brother Xianwang, you are so interesting, there are no outsiders here, and those Laoshzi etiquette will be exempted." Why are you free to come here today?"

Speaking of this Danyang princess Li Yue, Chu Mofeng also had a headache, after marrying Li Yuhu, he had accompanied her into the palace with gifts to visit those princesses who had not yet left the pavilion, and somehow fell into Li Yue's eyes, because the ordinary harem was extremely strict with the control of the princess going out, so Li Yue often went to Chu Mofeng on the grounds of visiting the eldest grandson, but whenever Chu Mofeng went to the Chengqian Palace, Li Yue would definitely follow.

And Chu Mofeng didn't plan to marry another princess, so for Li Yue's enthusiasm, Chu Mofeng always chose to avoid it as much as he could, and tried not to contact him head-on, but he didn't know that his wife was not as good as a concubine, a concubine was better than a concubine, and a concubine was better than a thief. And Chu Mofeng's refusal did not extinguish the fire in Li Yue's heart, but stimulated Li Yue's fighting spirit even more, and over time, even Li Yuhu, who knew the inside story, also suggested that Chu Mofeng marry Li Yue, but this matter was shirked by Chu Mofeng for various reasons.

Looking at this little girl carved in pink and jade at this moment, Chu Mofeng knew that he couldn't hide at this moment, and immediately said with a smile: "I entered the palace today because His Majesty appointed me to thoroughly investigate the murder of Guo Jieyu, if the princess has anything else, please talk about it later?"

"Oh...... Investigate the case, this princess can help you, but you have to agree to my condition, otherwise you can investigate it yourself. I saw Princess Li Yue of Danyang sly smiling, like a little fox who had stolen a hen, showing a smug smile.

Eager to save Li Shimin from the predicament, Chu Mofeng's heart turned, thinking that maybe she really had any clues, so she might as well promise her for the time being, and wait for Li Lao Er to get out of trouble in the future, this is a matter of fulfillment...... Let's talk about it later. Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng nodded and said, "Please give the princess advice, if you have any needs, you need to wait until this case is over." ”

"Cheng, with your words, it will be done. Seeing that Chu Mofeng agreed to his request, Li Yue was immediately in a good mood and told everything he knew, "In fact, before the banquet that day, when I walked from Lingxuan Pavilion to the Liangyi Hall from the Yuehua Gate, I vaguely saw Guo Jieyu in the garden, and she was talking to someone at that time, but because it was too far away, I didn't see who it was, but I could confirm that it was a man, because that figure was very burly, and women did not have such a burly figure. The two of them seemed to be arguing, and I saw Guo Jieyu pushing the man, and then I was afraid of being discovered, so I left in a hurry. ”

"Did the princess hear the content of the quarrel between the two of them?" Hearing Li Yue's words, Chu Mofeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he continued to ask.

"It seems that there is something like 'what to do', 'no conscience', 'your identity' and so on, because it is very far away, I heard these words. After trying to think about it, Li Yue hurriedly said what he knew again, and then looked at Chu Mofeng cautiously and said, "Brother Xianwang, can these help you?"

I saw Chu Mofeng give a big gift to Li Yue and said: "The minister is here to thank His Royal Highness the princess for His Royal Highness the King of Qin, these clues you gave me are really useful, Rong Chen will retire for the time being, and the minister will fulfill today's promise in the future." After speaking, Chu Mofeng turned around and walked towards Feng Yaxuan.

Looking at Chu Mofeng's departing figure, Li Yue said to himself: "If I let you marry me, can you fulfill this promise?" I guess not, so what's the use of making these promises today?"

Chu Mofeng, who was far away, did not hear the voice of the beauty, and was thinking about the case at the moment, combined with Li Shimin and Li Yue's statement, Li Shimin's jade gourd pendant was stolen, and Guo Jieyu seemed to have an affair with someone, and then found that she was pregnant, but it seems that His Majesty has not been fortunate to her for a long time, and suddenly being pregnant will definitely be suspected, so she had no choice but to go to her lover to discuss countermeasures, who knew that the two did not negotiate, and her lover did not seem to be just out of love, so he fornicated, according to Li Yue, this person should have another identity, that is, this identity became Guo Jieyu's life-urging talisman, and then the murderer strangled Guo JieyuWhile the corpse was still stiff, Li Shimin's pendant was stuffed into her hand, and then thrown it into the dry well in the garden, and finally left the back garden calmly.

According to this inference, at least one of the main culprits is an accomplice, and the accomplice does not seem to know the role of the main culprit in stealing the pendant, or that the original purpose of stealing the pendant is to frame Li Shimin, because according to the rules of the Tang Palace, it is a capital crime to lose the imperial gift, although Li Yuan will not cut Li Shimin because of this, but in view of Li Yuan's attitude towards him over the years, a reprimand is indispensable, maybe those two people will take advantage of this to make a big trouble, and then let Li Yuan take back part of the rights in Li Shimin's hands, so as to achieve the goal of dividing and disintegrating the Tiance Mansion。

Thinking of all this, the next task is to go to Guo Jieyu's residence and see if you can find the information of this so-called lover. Filtering this information in his mind, he didn't delay under his feet, after all, Li Yuan only gave a two-day deadline, and for Chu Mofeng, it was impossible to delay for a moment.

When he came to Feng Yaxuan, he found that there was no one inside, Chu Mofeng pulled a passing palace maid and asked only to find out that Xue Jieyu, who originally lived with Guo Jieyu, had already moved out of Feng Yaxuan because of the death of the person in the same room, but fortunately, all the belongings of Guo Jieyu before her death were retained. Then Chu Mofeng went straight into Feng Yaxuan, looking at the empty room, Chu Mofeng silently thought in his heart: Guo Jieyu, this king is here to investigate the case this time, if you have a spirit in the sky, please bless me to find the clues smoothly.

Then Chu Mofeng began to rummage in Guo Jieyu's room, only to see that there should be rouge and gouache on the dresser, but it was already covered with a layer of dust, although Jieyu was not there, but the furnishings in the room were slightly thin, a bed, a table, a couch, a cabinet, plus a few locked boxes, that's all.

Looking at the two locked boxes in front of him, Chu Mofeng took out a silver needle and inserted it into the lock hole and pounded it, only to hear a click, the lock was opened, and the box was opened and turned over carefully, except for some underwear, there was nothing useful, and then Chu Mofeng went straight to the bed, lifted the bedding, knocked it next to the bed board, and found that there was no empty drum sound, which proved that there was no hidden grid and mechanism on the bed.

At this time, the sky gradually began to darken, Chu Mofeng wanted to take advantage of the fact that before the sky was completely dark, he would first look here, and then go to the Chengqian Hall to see if he could find the so-called accomplice, and then Chu Mofeng reached out and opened the wardrobe door, and was about to start rummaging, but heard a slight footstep at the door.

After thinking for a moment, Chu Mofeng hid directly in the closet, closed the door with his hand, lowered his breathing rate, and took out a dart in his hand and waited quietly. Listening to the footsteps, he walked into Guo Jieyu's room, and kept coming to the wardrobe all the way, Chu Mofeng held the dart tightly in his hand when he saw this, and was ready to shoot.

At this time, the cabinet door was suddenly opened, and a slightly burly figure appeared in front of Chu Mofeng, and when Chu Mofeng saw this, he suddenly kicked out, which was imprinted on the person's chest, and immediately kicked the person backwards. Then Chu Mofeng dodged out of the closet, and looked at the person coldly, because this person was dressed in night clothes, and his face was covered with a black cloth, Chu Mofeng immediately asked coldly: "Who are you? What are you doing in Guo Jieyu's room?

The three questions on his face were not answered, but the man pulled out a horizontal knife and said coldly: "Your Royal Highness, you are in too much control. Then he hooked his feet, brought a chair next to him and flew towards Chu Mofeng, while he dodged towards the door.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng first dodged the other party's attack sideways, and then the dart in his hand flung vigorously in the direction of the person's escape, only to hear a muffled snort, the other party seemed to stumble, and instantly rushed out of the door, and when Chu Mofeng chased him out, there was no trace of this person.

Looking at the darts that fell on the ground, Chu Mofeng picked them up, wiped them and put them back in the dart bag, and then came to the wardrobe, looking at this bland wardrobe, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but be a little surprised, since the other party came straight to the wardrobe, it means that there must be a lot of articles in this wardrobe, but no matter how you look at this wardrobe, it is very ordinary.

Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng put all the clothes in the cabinet on the bed, and then looked at the empty cabinet in a daze, knocked on the cabinet board, and there was no unusual sound, and then Chu Mofeng squatted down and knocked on the bottom, only to hear the edge of the knock, suddenly made a burst of empty drum sound, which made Chu Mofeng feel a burst of joy in his heart, but after groping for a long time, except for a piece of thread, he did not find anything else such as buttons, Handles and other things, thinking that Chu Mofeng was about to use brute force to break open the cabinet, and in an instant, a lightning bolt crossed his mind.

The thread, if he had taken out the clothes just now, the thread would have been taken out of the cabinet long ago, but why did he still touch the thread? Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng took out a fire fold, blew it up, and then went in to take a look, only to see a section of thread stretching out from under the bottom plate, Chu Mofeng saw this and pulled the thread head hard, and saw that the bottom plate was opened a groove, and there was a sleeve with a faint fragrance inside.

Taking out the envelope, Chu Mofeng lit it by finding a candle, opened the envelope by the dim candlelight, and put a stack of letter paper inside, took out a random sheet and took a rough look, it turned out to be written by Guo Jieyu, and then Chu Mofeng took the envelope into his arms, blew out the fire and left Feng Yaxuan.

rushed all the way to the Chengqian Palace, at this moment, the eldest grandson exhausted his supper and finished dinner, and when he saw Chu Mofeng coming, he hurriedly ordered someone to clean up and serve tea and pastries, and then asked anxiously: "Mofeng, how is your second brother now?"

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I have been to see the second brother before, everything is fine, Your Majesty appointed me to investigate this matter thoroughly, since this matter was not done by the second brother, I will definitely find out the real culprit and give the second brother justice. Chu Mofeng sat aside, picked up a piece of pastry and ate it with tea.

Seeing that Chu Mofeng looked like he was gobbling up, the eldest grandson opened his mouth and was about to order his subordinates to prepare the table, but was stopped by Chu Mofeng, "Sister-in-law doesn't have to be like this, Mofeng came here this time and needs your help." ”

"Cheng, as long as you can rescue Erlang, you can just open your mouth if you need me to do anything. Hearing this, the eldest grandson Luo nodded his head, and looked at Chu Mofeng firmly, only to see Chu Mofeng whispering: "I want to know who is the person in charge of washing the clothes of the Chengqian Palace?

The eldest grandson nodded, and then shouted outside the door: "Come on, go and call Cuizhu, just say that King Xian has something to ask." As the attendant outside the door answered, after a while, he saw a woman dressed in lake-colored clothes, hurriedly walked in, and as soon as he entered the door, he saluted the two and said: "I have seen Her Royal Highness the Princess, I have seen Her Royal Highness the Virtuous King, and the slave and maid are Cuizhu." ”

"Cuizhu, go to the side hall with His Royal Highness King Xian, His Royal Highness King Xian has something to ask you, you are not allowed to hide it and not report it, if you let this princess know, she will definitely not spare you." The eldest grandson Luo pointed to the side hall on the side and made a gesture of invitation to Chu Mofeng.

Chu Mofeng nodded when he saw this, and then took out the envelope from his arms and handed it to the eldest grandson Luo Luo and said, "If Mrs. Sister-in-law is fine, help the younger brother and me to see if there is any ingenuity in the things here, and it can be regarded as passing the time." The eldest grandson took the envelope and nodded, and then Chu Mofeng led Cuizhu to the side hall, as soon as he entered the door, Chu Mofeng closed the door, and then sat aside and looked at Cuizhu without saying a word.

After being stared at by Chu Mofeng for a long time, Cuizhu gradually felt a little cramped, and she didn't know what to do, at this time Chu Mofeng suddenly spoke: "Cuizhu, who did you give the jade gourd of His Royal Highness King Qin after you took it?"

The sudden question caught Cuizhu a little off guard, and immediately said, "Given...... No, I didn't give anyone, Your Royal Highness King Xian, you are wronging your slaves. ”

"Oh, it's strange to say, you are the only one in charge of washing the clothes in the Chengqian Palace, if you hadn't taken it, then King Shu really couldn't think of anyone who could still touch His Highness's clothes?" Looking at Cuizhu who refused to admit it, Chu Mofeng motioned for her to sit down with interest, and then asked softly: "Could it be that the jade gourd ran away by itself with legs?"

I saw Cuizhu sit down and think for a moment, and then said as if remembering something: "Your Highness, the slave and maid remembered, after the slave and maid collected His Highness's clothes that day, she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her abdomen......"

After about half an hour, I saw Chu Mofeng leading Cuizhu out of the side hall, and the eldest grandson Luo Luo looked at the two of them with a concerned face when he saw this, only to see Chu Mofeng whisper: "Please ask my sister-in-law to summon one as a purple lotus, and the younger brother has something to ask." ”

"Zihe, on the day of the banquet, Zihe had already taken leave and returned to his hometown, and it was because of this incident that I arrived a moment late, and your second brother also knew about it. Hearing that Chu Mofeng mentioned the purple lotus, the eldest grandson Luo Luo was also a little surprised.

Then Chu Mofeng nodded, "It's okay, I'll go to the Shanggong Bureau to check on this matter later, as for those letters, do you have any clues?"

I saw that the eldest grandson Luo waved his hand, signaled Cuizhu to retreat, and then took out a letter, pointed to the above places and said: "Look, this sentence 'I was fortunate to see you again in the palace that day, but the distance between you and me is very different', it can be seen that Guo Jieyu seems to have seen the old man in the palace, but there seems to be a huge difference in identity between the two, which is worth scrutinizing." ”

Then the eldest grandson Luo pointed to another sentence and said: "Look at this sentence again, 'I know that you and I shouldn't be like this, but I still can't forget the past', that is to say, this person has known Guo Jieyu before, so the problem is, when Guo Jieyu entered the palace, the female official in charge of the physical examination could write that she was a virgin, otherwise she would not be able to enter the palace, that is, the person referred to in the letter had an affair with Guo Jieyu after she entered the palace, which can be verified in her hometown." ”

Chu Mofeng remembered that there was only a two-day deadline, and then said to the eldest grandson: "I have been bothering the younger brother for a long time and need to leave, and I hope that the younger brother will come today, and the sister-in-law should not mention it to anyone for the time being, remember to remember, this matter is related to the safety of the second brother." ”

The eldest grandson sent Chu Mofeng away, and then ordered someone to summon Cuizhu again, and then asked coldly: "Cuizhu, this princess asked you, what did His Royal Highness King Fang Caixian ask you?"

At this moment, the candle flame of the Shanggong Bureau was still not extinguished, Chu Mofeng came straight to the Shanggong Bureau, and a group of female officials found that Chu Mofeng was coming, and they surrounded them one after another, not for anything else, just because this guy is a hot figure now, with power in the world, strong martial arts, handsome and chic, Yushu Linfeng, is upright and favored by His Majesty, and what Gu Zhen'er said to Zitong at the beginning was not adulterated, now most of the ministers in Chang'an City are thinking of marrying their daughters or sisters to Chu Mofeng, so that they can get some benefits in the future.

But don't mention it, there are portraits of Chu Mofeng in the boudoirs of many young ladies in the capital, which is also unexpected by Chu Mofeng. Seeing that the group of female porridge and porridge had a great tendency to encircle, Chu Mofeng immediately touched the token on his body, and everyone immediately knelt down to salute when they saw the token, and Chu Mofeng had to ask: "May I ask who is the secretary of the secretary's secretary, please get up and this king has something to ask." ”

I saw a woman who was over forty years old and stood up and said, "Your Royal Highness, the lower official is the secretary, I don't know what His Highness came to do." ”

"Please help me check it out, about a palace maid named Zihe in the Chengqian Palace, where is her ancestral hometown?" Chu Mofeng motioned for everyone to get up, and then squeezed out the crowd and came to the secretary, only to see the secretary think for a moment and said: "Back to Your Highness, the lower official remembered that this palace maid is a native of Hekou Village, Jixian County, Fanyang County, Youzhou. ”

After listening to the secretary's words, Chu Mofeng immediately bowed his hand to the female officials present and said: "Thank you for your cooperation, after the incident, this king will personally bring a thank you gift to the door, and the situation is urgent, and this king will leave for the time being." After speaking, he turned around and left the Shang Palace Bureau.

At this time, there was not much time left before the palace ban fell into the door, Chu Mofeng was about to leave the palace in desperation, when he suddenly remembered something, turned around and returned to the Shanggong Bureau, and went straight to the secretary and asked in a low voice: "Dare to ask Lord Si Shu, did Guo Jieyu also enter the palace through selection?"

"How could His Royal Highness know about this?" The old secretary heard Chu Mofeng ask this, and felt very surprised, Guo Jieyu's entry into the palace has always been regarded as a reverse scale, and few people know how she entered the palace, and when Chu Mofeng asked like this today, the old secretary immediately felt a little incredible.

"Then you must have a record here, where is her household registration registered at that time, right? In view of the fact that Guo Jieyu has already died at this time, and this matter is related to the safety of His Royal Highness King Qin, I hope that Lord Si Shu will tell the truth. Chu Mofeng saw that he was in the right place, and hurriedly bowed to the secretary.

After hesitating for a moment, he leaned in front of Chu Mofeng and whispered: "Coincidentally, our Guo Jieyu, whose ancestral home is the same place as the palace maid named Zihe. ”

Hearing this, Chu Mofeng immediately smiled, then arched his hand at the secretary, turned around and left the place.

Back in the mansion, Chu Mofeng handed over the letterhead to the attentive Mo Ziyao, and then came to Dou Jingyan's room, at this moment Dou Jingyan was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, when she saw Chu Mofeng coming, she hurriedly got up and saluted and then stepped forward to change her clothes, and then the two of them lay on the bed, only to see Dou Jingyan get into Chu Mofeng's arms, and said quietly: "Your Highness has been out for a month, even if the concubine thinks about His Royal Highness, she has never seen it, and today His Royal Highness came to make the concubine very happy." ”

Who knew that Chu Mofeng stretched out his hand and patted Dou Jingyan's buttocks, and then said with a slight reprimand: "Go and go, what kind of bag to drag, when did General Dou speak so sourly." ”

I saw Dou Jingyan suddenly sit up straight, stretched out her hand and punched Chu Mofeng, and then her face changed and she snorted, "Your Royal Highness the Virtuous King is really leisurely, after this girl married you, the room has not been round a few times, my father asks me every day when I will be able to conceive the little prince, what do you let me say? You have been out for so long, what do you say? I heard that I came back this time and brought back another one, right?"

Who knew that as she spoke, she heard that Chu Mofeng was already asleep and snored slightly, Dou Jingyan had no choice but to blow out the candle and fall into Chu Mofeng's arms and fall asleep.

In the early morning of the second day, Chu Mofeng got up early to change clothes and wash, and then came to Mo Ziyao's room, only to see Mo Ziyao holding the stack of letterheads, and said with a solemn face: "It seems that our Guo Jieyu has indeed done something insulting to the royal family, when you report this matter to Your Majesty, try to pay attention to the wording, because if you are a little careless, it is estimated that the head is rolling." ”

Chu Mofeng nodded, put the stack of letterheads back into the envelope, and then left the mansion directly, riding all the way to the military department, everyone saw their old boss coming, they got up to greet them, Chu Mofeng didn't care about these false courtesies, and directly ordered to find the household registration list of the forbidden army, looking at the dense names on the list, Chu Mofeng checked them one by one, and after a while, Chu Mofeng raised his head and sighed, and then left the military department in the surprised eyes of everyone.

Straight to the palace forbidden army guard, Chu Mofeng as soon as he entered the door, he named and said that he wanted to find the deputy commander Guo Youwei, everyone saw that it was King Xian who arrived, and hurriedly served tea and called people, and after a while, they saw a burly man walk in and gave a fist salute to Chu Mofeng, "The last general Guo Youwei, I have seen His Royal Highness the King Xian, I don't know why His Royal Highness summoned the last general?"

Chu Mofeng sat on the chair, looked at Guo Youwei with interest, picked up the teacup and blew it, and then drank all the tea in the cup, then stood up and stepped forward, suddenly pinched Guo Youwei's left shoulder, felt something wet sticking to his hand, and then said with a smile: "Commander Guo, if I tell you that my dart is poisonous, it will attack in twelve hours, what should you do?"

Hearing Chu Mofeng's words, Guo Youwei's face changed, and he was about to resist, but at the wound on his shoulder, a burst of heart-piercing pain struck, making Guo Youwei suddenly lose the strength to resist, only to see Chu Mofeng snort coldly and said: "Come on, take down this murderer who murdered Guo Jieyu and send it to Your Majesty." ”

Youdao is Shangguan's words are orders, and four forbidden soldiers immediately came up, put shackles on Guo Youwei, and then followed Chu Mofeng towards the Taiji Palace.

At this time, Li Yuan was sitting upright in the Taiji Palace, with Wang De's attendants on one side, and His Royal Highness was standing with a group of imperial relatives, and Li Shimin, who had been detained before, was also present, only to see Chu Mofeng walking in with four forbidden soldiers and escorting Guo Youwei.

Chu Mofeng stepped forward and saluted Li Yuan and said, "Your Majesty, the matter you appointed the minister to investigate thoroughly has now been fully investigated, and the minister will explain it to Your Majesty in detail." ”

Seeing that Li Yuan nodded, Chu Mofeng said slowly: "This matter should start with King Qin's imperial jade gourd...... Therefore, after some verification by the minister, the real culprit was finally found, that is, Guo Youwei, the deputy commander of the forbidden army, and at this moment he was handed over to His Majesty to deal with. ”

Looking at Guo Youwei who was kneeling with His Royal Highness, the anger in Li Yuan's heart surged suddenly, and he immediately said coldly: "Spread my will, pardon King Qin's innocence, and the three people involved in the case will all exterminate the nine clans to set an example." ”

Then Li Yuan said to Li Shimin with a guilty face: "Erlang, my father blamed you before, I hope you don't complain about your father." ”

Who knew that Li Shimin's face was unusually calm and smiled and said: "Father Qi, since the matter has been clarified, how can the sons and daughters complain about you, please allow the sons and His Royal Highness King Xian to retire for the time being." ”

From Li Shimin's words, Li Yuan also heard a trace of resentment, and then nodded, signaling the two to step back for the time being. Looking at the figures of the two leaving, Li Yuan sighed helplessly, and then got up and brushed his sleeves away.

Leaving the palace directly, the two rode to the Dongshi wine shop, and in the single room, Li Shimin personally poured a glass of wine for Chu Mofeng, and then respectfully gave a salute and said: "I should really thank you for being able to get out of trouble this time, I really want to thank you, this glass of wine is for you, thank you." ”

", it wasn't you who did it in the first place, it's just that these people didn't think about it carefully, after this calamity, some things have been seen through, right? It's time to give it a go, right?" I saw Chu Mofeng block the wine glass handed over by Li Shimin, and then glanced at him angrily and said, "If you still can't figure it out this time, I will move back to Zhangye tomorrow." ”

"I've figured it out, I've also figured it out in the Qianqiu Hall these days, it's not so much that I'm always dodging hidden arrows, it's better to let the other party also go to the surface, and have a real fight, and become a king or defeat a villa!" Li Shimin stood up, slowly bowed to Chu Mofeng and said, "Li Shimin sincerely asks for your help!"

Chu Mofeng nodded and did not speak, but slowly poured a glass of wine and handed it to Li Shimin, then got up and drank it all at him......

As the saying goes, wave after wave of unsettled waves, and look at Li Shimin's highly toxic body, and then look at Chu Mofeng's dangerous collection of medicine, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
