Chapter 127: Escaping with a knife wound, going to the palace at night

After Yidao walked away, the adjutant looked down at his hand and a smile appeared on his mouth.

"Sir, the villain has not been able to complete the entrusted work of the adult. I am here to apologize to the adult." The adjutant walked into Sima Lingyun's room and saw Sima Lingyun holding up the teacup with his forehand, and he said to Sima Lingyun as if he was thinking.

"What?! So many people can't even catch an assassin! What a bunch of people!" Sima Lingyun didn't feel angry when he saw the adjutant's words, and shouted at the adjutant in front of him.

"Please calm down. Although my subordinates were incompetent and could not capture the assassin, when the assassin held his subordinates hostage, his subordinate took advantage of the chaos to remove a token from the assassin. Please take a look." The man was furious when he saw Sima Lingyun, he hurriedly said the words. Then he took out the token on his body, raised his hands, and presented it to Sima Lingyun.

Sima Lingyun came to the adjutant, reached out to take the waist card in his hand, took it in his hand and looked it over, but his face suddenly became gloomy. Then Sima Lingyun said to the adjutant in front of him, "Did you see anything about this waist card?"

"Sir, the villain didn't see anything, so I came to let the adults read it." When the adjutant heard Sima Lingyun's question, he felt a cold sweat on his body, because he knew that the person behind the token was of great importance. If he knew, something would have happened, so he hurriedly started to look carelessly and said perfunctorily to Sima Lingyun in front of him.

"That's good. Get up first, hurry up and prepare the sedan chair quickly. I'm going to go out." Sima Lingyun saw the adjutant ask, and understood the intention of the adjutant's words, but he didn't think so much. He hurriedly ordered the adjutant to prepare the car for him.

Sima Lingyun walked quickly out the door and then went to the court.

"Master, where are we going?" The coachman saw that Master Sima Lingyun got into the sedan chair, so he asked Sima Lingyun.

"Enter the palace." Sima Lingyun saw the sedan chairwoman asking, and said lightly, then looked panicked and held the token taken from the killer with both hands.

After hearing this, the coachman didn't feel puzzled because he did it in Sima's Mansion.

After a while, Sima Lingyun's carriage came outside the palace. Since it was a little night now, the streets outside the palace were sparsely crowded, with only a few people in groups of three or three. The palace gate was also closed. Although Sima Lingyun was the Minister of Shang, he had to find someone to report to the Empress and wait for the Empress to announce his views.

"It's Lord Sima. I don't know why I suddenly entered the palace late at night. If there is nothing particularly important, I'll come back tomorrow morning. I guess the Empress should have already gone to bed." The guard at the gate said kindly to Sima Lingyun when he saw Sima Lingyun walking down.

"I appreciate your kindness, but it is related to the country and the country at this time, so please spread it." Although Sima Lingyun knew that the guards were out of good intentions, since it was indeed related to the country and the country at this time, Sima Lingyun still asked the guards to spread it to the Empress.

After a while, the guards came back.

"Sir Sima, the Empress is invited."

Hearing the Queen's Proud View, Sima Lingyun walked quickly towards the Queen's Bedroom.

Sima Lingyun was so stupid all the way, because he didn't know how to tell the Empress that when he came to the door of the Empress's bedroom, Sima Lingyun saw the Empress sitting in the main hall of the bedroom with a tired look on his face.

"My minister Sima Lingyun pays homage to the Empress, the Empress, a thousand years old." Sima Lingyun greeted the Empress in front of him.

"I wonder what's going on in Sima's Aiqing's visit late at night?" Queen Mu said to Sima Lingyun.

"Empress, you can limit the case of military pay theft within 30 days. Tomorrow is the final deadline. But tomorrow is not sure how to tell the news tomorrow?" Sima Lingyun looked a little embarrassed, and then said to Queen Mu.

"What's the result of your investigation?" Queen Mu saw Sima Lingyun's face was embarrassed, so she walked to Sima Lingyun and asked.

"Please look at Empress, I believe the Empress should know this." Sima Lingyun said as he took out the token from his sleeve, and then presented his hands to Queen Mu's side.

Queen Mu reached out to take the token from Sima Lingyun's hand, then took it in her hand and saw that the word "Li" was printed on the token. The other side of the token had the word "wang" printed on it. Queen Mu immediately recognized that this was the token from Prince Ang's mansion, but what is the connection with the case Sima Lingyun mentioned today? Queen Mu turned to Sima Lingyun and said to Sima Lingyun.

"My dear, what do you mean?" Queen Mu looked down at the token again.

"Empress, I got this token from a killer. The process of this matter is like this. That day, we caught the person who robbed the official salary with a boy in Fengyunling, but the person who robbed the military salary was not the mastermind, but was ordered by someone. After the mastermind learned about it, he sent someone to threaten him with his family. As a result, this person committed suicide in the prison. In order to lure the snake out of the hole, he claimed to the public that this person hit the wall, but did not die, but recovered from my mansion. Later, I asked someone to pretend to be a dead person and lure his accomplice into a fool. Sure enough, I really waited for his accomplice. And this token was obtained from this killer." Sima Lingyun said in detail to the Queen Wood in front of me.

"It's indeed Ang Lee. It seems that he is recruiting troops secretly. The military expenditure is insufficient. But he didn't expect that he would have the idea of ​​military expenditure for the imperial court to guard the border. Humph, it seems that Ang Lee's motive for rebellion is becoming more and more obvious." Queen Mu showed a disdainful expression when she heard Sima Lingyun's words, then looked down at the token in her hand, and then held the token tightly in her hand.

It turned out that the Empress had known Ang Lee's ambitions for a long time. It might be that she was coveting Ang Lee's 50,000 troops outside the palace, so she did not act rashly and turned a blind eye to Ang Lee and closed her eyes.

"Empress, what should I say in the morning court tomorrow morning? Please let the empress do it clearly." Sima Lingyun thought that this matter was of great importance, so he asked Queen Mu for instructions.

"Now, most of the imperial army is guarding the border. There are only 3,000 imperial guards in the palace, so it is difficult to compete with Ang Lee's 50,000 cavalry. Therefore, it is very unwise to have a conflict with Ang Lee. In addition, Ang Lee has been entangled with Ouyang Feilong recently and has no time to take care of us. Just give Ang Lee in words first, and send powerful people to the border to transfer back the 100,000 troops to stabilize the situation." Queen Mu thought about it when she heard Sima Lingyun's words, and then said to Sima Lingyun.
