Chapter 145: Examination (II)

The first rays of sunlight in the early morning swept through Jinling, and a large number of armor soldiers had already gathered outside the Ningfu Gate in the city, and the four shadow wind guards led by them stood on the stone steps next to the stone lion in Ningfu, and looked back at the minister's mansion that was confined outside the street, and none of the many courtiers went out. In the Nanyin Pavilion, Xiao Yi rubbed the corners of his eyes, and glanced at Ning Wuji's sleepy-eyed appearance between his hands.

The entire Ning Mansion has been surrounded by the A Corps of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division at this moment, which has never happened since the founding of Taizu, and several ministers of the court and the central government adjacent to the Ning Mansion have also ordered the house slaves to close the door of the mansion, and those waiters who went out to buy in the past can only lean against the crack in the door and watch the situation on the street. Many of the wings in the Nanyin Pavilion are guarded by brocade guards outside the door, each room is a thousand households, the maids in the house hold all kinds of tea in their hands, all bow their heads, no one dares to make a sound, only the sound of birds playing in the depths of the courtyard, at this time, Xiao Yi looked at Ning Wuji who was walking back and forth in the hall, and just said lightly, "If, if they don't show the truth, I'm afraid they can only..."

"Brother Xiao, for the sake of our officials in the same dynasty, we are all ...."Ning Wuji opened the door and looked out of the wooden corridor through the gap, how he hoped that there would be a waiter who could come over with everyone's confessions. The night passed, and no one handed over the confession, if there was really no one to confess truthfully, I am afraid that it was not the edict of the Beizhen Fusi that could keep them.

"Brother Ning, although we both belong to the emperor's order, this matter is not trivial. How can we get involved in the marriage of the imperial grandson?" Xiao Yi picked up a piece of cloth from the wooden case and put it into a basin of hot water beside him, fiddled back and forth a few times, and said in a low voice, "Now, as long as one of them can confess, so that I can be a good friend, His Royal Highness the Prince, we all know the person, but if this matter is known by Emperor Taizu, can Jinyiwei ... It's still unknowable. ”

Hurried footsteps suddenly came from the wooden corridor outside the door, and two waiters came quickly, standing respectfully outside the door of Nanyin Pavilion, "Lord Ning, Lu Chengying and Su Yue's confessions." ”

"What!" Ning Wuji exclaimed, he hurriedly pushed the door open, startling the two waiters to quickly kneel on the ground, holding the confession in both hands. Ning Wuji looked at the confession in the waiter's hand, he didn't know how to deal with it at this time, Su Yue was his beloved disciple, and Lu Chengying was the most promising candidate to inherit the deputy commander, and if any of these two people had an accident, he would be to blame.

Xiao Yi slowly walked to Ning Wuji's side, took the confession from the hands of the two waiters, and turned back to the hall. He did not open the confessions of Lu Chengying and Su Yue, but put them on the wooden case next to the Taishi's chair, and said awe-inspiringly, "There are only these two, what about the others?"

"No... No, Lord Lu and Master Su handed this over to the little one. The two waiters shuddered, and broke out in a cold sweat with fright.

"Go down, and if anyone else has anything to confess, bring it up immediately." Ning Wuji's tone slowed down a lot, he closed the wooden door of Nanyin Pavilion, turned to look at Xiao Yi, and found that he was looking at him, his face was shocked, and he said in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"We waited all night, just the two of them?"

Xiao Yi stretched out his hand and was about to open the confessions of Lu Chengying and Su Yue on the wooden case, but Ning Wuji stepped forward quickly to stop him, his face was slightly gloomy, and he sighed, "How is Brother Xiao going to deal with these two confessions?"

"Deal with it, naturally, it is directly presented to His Royal Highness the Prince, is it difficult..."

"No, my brother has an idea, I don't know what Brother Xiao thinks.... If the confessions of the two of them mention some others, and some are involved..."Ning Wuji stepped forward with a wave of his right hand to stop Xiao Yi, and waved the two confessions onto the wooden case.

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and then looked up at Ning Wuji's complicated expression, he had already guessed in his heart why Ning Wuji said this at this time, he wanted to understand what Lu Chengying and Su Yue said in their confessions, so that he could give an explanation to His Royal Highness the Prince. If the two confess something important, they can be mentally prepared.

Unexpectedly, Ning Wuji suddenly withdrew his hand, walked to the other end of the wooden case, stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the ray of sunlight outside the window, and said lightly, "Brother Xiao smiled, because my brother lost his temper just now." This matter was ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to investigate, and Ning Mou should fully cooperate. Whoever is involved in this matter, I'd rather cooperate with Shadowwind to investigate clearly. ”

Xiao Yi looked at Ning Wuji's slightly rickety back, he picked up the two confessions on the wooden case and walked towards the main entrance of Nanyin Pavilion. "Squeak!" The moment the door was opened, Xiao Yi turned his head to look at Ning Wuji, and said softly, "Lord Ning, no matter what you say, they are all trained by you, and I don't want to see this happen.... I will—" Xiao Yi shook his hand and walked out of the Nanyin Pavilion.

At this moment, Ning Wuji suddenly looked very helpless, the Thirteenth Taibao of Jinyi Wei was brought out by himself, and the situation of the past was flashing in front of him. And now, he suddenly had a feeling of being abandoned, the huge imperial capital, the huge mansion, except for those who were locked up, who else would have the same heart as himself, Ning Wuji helplessly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, slowly walked out of the door, and walked to the side room where everyone was detained.

"Lord Ning" The two brocade-clothed guards outside the corridor of the side room saluted respectfully.

"Stand down, all of you, and tell the kitchen to make some breakfast and serve it to them. Ning Wuji glanced at the various wings of the side room of Nanyin Pavilion, and it was inevitable that there would be a trace of loneliness, and the Lotus Pond Outer Shadow Wind Guard returned everyone's weapons to the attendants in the mansion, and followed Xiao Yi to the main gate of Ning Mansion with a quick pace.

"Commander Xiao!" Outside the mansion gate, the four shadow wind guards said respectfully.

Xiao Yi nodded, picked up the confession in his hand slightly, and signaled to the four shadow wind guards in front of him that the things had been obtained. The four of them retreated to both sides, and the armor surrounding Ning Mansion also retreated a way to both sides, Xiao Yi got on his horse and galloped towards the end of the street, followed by the Shadow Wind Guard.

....

Early in the morning, in a corner of the Imperial City of Jinling, a brocade-clothed waiter in the Qingwang Mansion hurriedly rushed to a lakeside bamboo building in the backyard, and many waiters in the palace also quickly pushed away to both sides. "Dodge! dodge! Hurry up!" the waiter ran quickly, and the maids in King Qing's mansion avoided it when they saw that the person who came was the leader of the mansion.

"What about Your Highness?" the waiter stood in the bamboo courtyard by the lake in a hot sweat, wiped the sweat off his face and forehead, and trembled to hold on to a huge bamboo beside the hidden passage.

"What's going on, it's making you nervous like this!" The waiter at the gate of the bamboo courtyard saw the person coming, hurriedly greeted him, and handed over a cloth towel, the waiter glanced at the small building by the lake in the bamboo courtyard, and said in a low voice, "Commander Jin, what is going on?" His Royal Highness King Qing has not yet gotten up, so I'm afraid that I will go in like this..."

"I can't care about that much!" Jin Buhuan took the cloth towel handed over by the waiter in his hand, then pushed it away and ran straight towards the small building by the lake.
