The Linglong Tower issue finally reached Emperor Rong.
In the majestic main hall, six red lacquered dragon pillars support a complicated and gorgeous dome. There is a throne under the dome, and bronze tripods with animal bodies on both sides. A jade staircase engraved with royal hunting pictures goes down the red lacquer railing.
Suddenly it stopped not far in front of Liang Luan's forehead, completely cutting off the emperor and his ministers.
Liang Luan lay on the ground tremblingly, and big beads of sweat rolled to the ground, reflecting the vague outline of the supreme yet ruthless Changle Hall.
"I...I deserve death for my crime! Please forgive me for three days, Your Majesty. I will surely pick up those who are causing obstruction!"
"Three days?" Emperor Rong's eyes were cold and stern, and his eyes fell on the person on the ground. His straight eyebrows were full of the emperor's complicated mood. He slowly spun silk, but in the blink of an eye, his face changed.
"Don't worry, Qing Liang. It's just a dead object. It's just to silence everyone. The person who caused the obstruction must be found out and severely punished."
"yes."
"Everything is left to you."
"My lord, I will live up to your majesty's trust and punish this person severely!"
Liang Luan got on the carriage and as soon as he drove out of the last palace gate, someone blocked his way. The man was wearing a black cloak and his face was hidden in the hat. He was not surprised and gave up his seat.
"Sir, do you need any help?" The voice came from the cloak and it was a woman.
Liang Luan dismissed it.
The man in black robe took off his hat, his face was elegant, but the pressure all over his body seemed to be killing people. She looked at him with a smile: "I heard that you recommended Mo Xuan to Lord Mo?"
Liang Luan glanced at her, and felt strange in her heart that she could never smile with her eyes out: "She? When did I recommend her? And why did I recommend her?"
"Sir, there is no need to pretend. Nothing can escape my eyes, Yuncheng."
"No one knows about this except me. It seems that Mr. Mo loves you so much that he lets you come and go at will without any precautions!" He glanced at the imperial city gradually fading away outside the fluttering curtains, "This is the imperial palace.
, you showed up unexpectedly and got into my carriage again, are you trying to arouse suspicion? What on earth do you want to do?!"
"The three palace gates outside the imperial city are not all your soldiers." A white and flawless hand pressed his hair, "Although I don't know your plan clearly, I can guess a thing or two. Among the several princes, except
Among the princes, only the second prince, the third prince, and the youngest King Yao were favored by His Majesty. However, the second prince and the third prince had no intention of fighting, and King Yao granted him a title early and assumed the position of idle prince and prince.
No one can shake him one bit! If Master Mo wants to control the future Rong Kingdom, he must control the prince, so he thought of Mo Xuan. Mo Xuan has good looks, good martial arts, and a weakness in Master Mo's hands, so he can't do anything if he doesn't obey.
Really, Mr. Liang?"
Liang Luan raised the curtains and saw that the carriage had left the Imperial Road and was heading towards the main street. He threw down the curtains and cursed fiercely: "You ignorant bitch, do you know what you are talking about?!"
Jinyun Cheng raised the corner of his lips: "One person is less than ten thousand people, this is the real power over the world!"
Liang Luan looked at her: "Remember, you and Mo Xuan are both dead men recruited by Master Mo. From the time your names were engraved on the sign, you were destined to serve him for the rest of your life. There must be no objections or two minds!
Jinyun City, your master treats you extraordinary, you should be content."
"Your Excellency, it is clear to you that Yuncheng will do anything to repay the kindness of knowing you! If you were given other instructions, Yuncheng and Moxuan would naturally obey them. However, Moxuan has little experience and is from Yunlai Pavilion. Most people in the court are not familiar with it.
Knowing her, entering the palace rashly will ruin the plan, so why not let me take her place? Firstly, I come from the academy and have a legitimate name. Secondly...compared with Moxuan, I am naturally better at bewitching the prince. Wouldn't it be safe?
?”
Liang Luan thought to himself: If a geisha is really sent to the palace, the prince will be very useful, but I am afraid that those three generations of loyal ministers and princes will not agree. Once the two parties confront each other, wouldn't it be detrimental to Lord Mo?!
He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Jinyuncheng, you are indeed thoughtful, but sending such a beauty to the prince's place, tsk tsk, makes me feel really sad." As he spoke, Liang Luan's hand quietly touched her shoulder, and the next moment, it was about to slip.
Inverted to the chest.
Jin Yuncheng tilted his body, just in time to avoid it: "Each dead soldier has his own mission, and Yuncheng's mission is to enter the palace to serve Lord Mo. If Yuncheng is not dead, it may ruin Lord Mo's plan.
"
Liang Luan's fingers were frozen on her collarbone, and the gentle touch made him feel itchy. But for the sake of the overall situation, he had to endure it no matter how uncomfortable it was. Thinking about it like this, he became more and more unwilling to do so.
"Mr. Jin, I just got the news that Liang Luan went to Yunlai Pavilion and bought Miss Moxuan's first night with a lot of money..."
Liang Luan bought girl Mo Xuan's first night...
Jinyun Cheng woke up from the bed with a start, his clothes soaked with sweat, and his face was pale, as if he had just passed through hell.
Suo Qingqiu's words that day were still coming back and forth in her ears, even intruding into her dreams and torturing her, every word piercing her heart, every word threatening her life.
She can no longer resign herself to fate or wait any longer!
Suo Qingqiu pushed the door open and saw her face covered in sweat: "Sir, are you having a nightmare?"
"It's okay." She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, "It's okay now."
"Moxuan has sent a letter again. This time she delivered it in person. She looks very bad when she sees it. I'm afraid she still can't let go of what happened that day."
She glanced at the letter and burned it: "Tell her that from now on, don't let her come to me or hinder me from walking to higher places."
Suo Qingqiu looked confused: "Sir, you..."
"Get out."
The night was deep and silent, but Yuncheng had a hard night.
If she had not chosen to come to Rongguo, would everything have been better and better? Could Moxuan be like ordinary people, get married, have a child, and live happily...
"Mother Xu, where is Mo Xuan?"
Xu Niang raised her eyes and looked at Su Yan, all her dissatisfaction was revealed on her face. She stopped what she was doing and said to her: "If you don't come for many days, my place will be turned upside down! Mo Xuan was recently killed by Master Liang.
I fell in love with her and nodded to her every three days. I couldn't do a big business, but he was the one who got me!"
Su Yan stopped holding the cup in his hand and said in shock: "What did you say? What do you mean..."
Xu Niang sighed three times in a row: "Originally, I planned to let her only do art and not sell herself. She also thought so. However, we are weak and have a low life. The one who is an official is the king! Who dares to resist!"
"Master Liang?"
Xu Niang leaned against the table and looked at her with a pair of sad eyes: "It's the Liang Luan I mentioned to you last time!"
Su Yan felt weird, why did he keep getting involved with him recently?
"You said that Mo Xuan's piano skills are famous far and wide, and a piece of music can be sold for a high price! Not to mention the escort, but Liang Luan bought her for several nights at the price of other brothels. Why? My girl here can't
They are all carefully selected, how can they be ruined by him?" Xu Niang calmed down her breath and said, "Besides, my Moxuan is a girl from a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. Unlike ordinary people, he has a high price.
I can’t just sell it! I’m so angry!”
At this time, Su Yan thought of Linglong Tower's troubles again, and did not listen to Xu Niang's words at all. He only said, "Then you can think of a way in the future and hide if you can."
Seeing that her mind was wandering, Xu Niang couldn't help but ask: "Did something happen to you there?"
Su Yan was slightly startled, and his eyes immediately became alert: "How do you know?"
"I have a mixed bag of dragons and snakes here. I don't need to ask for the news. It will be delivered to my door by myself. It's hard not to want to hear it!"
Su Yan relaxed slightly and smiled awkwardly: "I see, I thought..."
"What do you think? Do you think I sent someone to monitor you? But please worry less, my little Su Yan, I am so busy, Miss. I still have time to take care of you? It makes no sense!"
A trace of doubt appeared and disappeared on Su Yan's face, and he smiled and said: "How could I think so? It's just a casual joke!"
"That's it...I thought you..." Xu Niang hurriedly adjusted, "Have you ever approached your manager about the Linglong Tower matter?"
"I originally thought that the enemy wanted to use my hand to test Zuo Qing, but now it seems that he wants to use my hand to frame Changsun Yue!"
"Did you find out who it was?"
"Who else is the biggest enemy of the Changsun family now except Mo Fei who can't eat fat?"
Madam Xu frowned: "So there was a frame-up, and even a child like Chang Sun Yue was not spared... Damn it!"
Su Yan stood up and said, "But these are all my guesses. It's hard to tell whether they are true or false. Madam Xu, I know you are well-informed, so do me a favor."
Lanshan Courtyard, Nanhu.
Bamboo curtains were hung on all sides of the pavilion. Day and night alternated, and there was a gentle breeze. There was no feeling of heat at all. Anu sat cross-legged on the mat, picking grapes from the fruit plate to eat, taking a sip of grapes and a sip of tea, and was not disturbed by the tense atmosphere of the academy.
"Amo, you are enjoying yourself so much!"
As soon as Ah Yu heard the voice, he knew who it was. He jumped up and giggled: "Your Majesty, why are you here? My husband has no guests today."
Xilou closed the folding fan, knocked on her shoulder, and said with a smile: "That's for others, I'm different."
Just as he was about to enter the courtyard, Ah Yu hurriedly got up and stopped him: "Let Ah Yu go and inform him, Your Majesty, please sit here for a while."
"No need, I'm afraid I'm going to die of suffocation here whenever you come and go."
"How can you feel uncomfortable when it's so cool here? My husband is still washing up right now. Wouldn't it be offensive for you, a grown man, to enter? I'm thinking of you too!"
Xilou was helpless: "Come on, go ahead and report it."
Ah Yu rubbed his dirty hands on his waist, then turned around to report. Before he had even taken two steps, a gust of wind blew up around him. When he turned around, the figure in the west building was gone. Ah Yu was stunned for a moment, waiting for his reaction.
, yelling angrily and chasing the gust of wind.
Su Yan had already placed three plates of fruit pulp, filled two glasses of sake, and said with a smile: "When I heard Amin scolding you in front of me with a look of disgust, I couldn't help but think, you are a royal noble and hold an important position.
The belonging in a woman's heart, why did she become the object of Ah Mi's dislike?"
"It's hard to put it into words!" Xilou said with a helpless smile.
Today's Guluan Pavilion is very different from usual. The tea table for entertaining guests has been moved to the inside of the main entrance. You can enjoy the sunset, the swaying candlelight in the corridor, and the lotus leaves in the pond. The west building leans on the table,
While he was admiring it, he suddenly heard the sound of porcelain being placed. He came back to his senses and saw that it was Ah Yu. He quickly said politely: "I came to visit at this time. It is really disturbing. Not only is it disturbing Ah Yan, but it is also causing trouble to Ah Yan."
In a moment. At the beginning of next month, the Wanchao House will be cleared. Some items that have not been used for more than five years will be given to officials of the fifth rank or above. Although they are abandoned items, the items that can be brought into the Wanchao House are all
It’s rare on the market, let me keep your attention!”
Amin's eyes lit up: "Baby?"
Xilou nodded solemnly.
Amo Huanyue: "Then I will choose it myself!"
"It's up to you."
After trying to please her, Ah Yu was successfully bribed. Xilou put away her attentive face, twisted her lips and said, "It's strange, it's not my first time here, why did she suddenly treat me so unfavorably?"
Su Yan took a sip of wine and said: "Who asked you to break in? I told her before that anyone who comes to me at the wrong time will be rejected. If you break in forcefully, you are a bad person... Oh
, I reminded you about this, have you forgotten?"
"Did you say that?"
"You are old, go back and replenish your brain! I have some pills here, why don't you take them for the first half of the year?" Su Yan picked some candied fruits and handed them to him, "Tell me, what can you risk?
Come to me with the risk of being kicked out by Amin?"
Xilou did not go to pick up the candied fruit, but looked at her with a complicated expression and said: "Your Majesty ordered Liang Luan to solve the case within three days and find out the person behind it. Shuyoutang has been sealed, and people from the Ministry of Punishment are guarding and questioning day and night. Maybe early tomorrow morning, they will
Someone will come to check you."
Su Yan slowly retracted his hand, and instantly he became dejected: "It is indeed a trap. Liang Luan has designed it from the beginning, waiting for the prey to jump in. I shouldn't have tested it even though I knew there was a trap. As a result,
…Now it’s okay, everything is in!”
"We don't know." He seemed to have a solution, with a very indifferent expression, "Liang Luan set a trap for Shu Youtang, but you don't necessarily know that your students will be beaten into unreasonable charges. Who among these officials' children will admit it?"
.”
Su Yan suddenly gained confidence: "As long as they refuse to plead guilty, they can delay time. I have asked someone to investigate the Liang Mansion. Since he wants to frame him, he will definitely leave evidence."
"But you are about to share the same troubles with your students." Xilou ate the pulp and looked at her with a smile.
Su Yan looked at him and suddenly understood. He stood up and bowed: "I'll leave it to you, Your Majesty."
Outside Xinghan Pavilion, Zuo Qing walked in the woods and finally stopped under a tree, looking at the branches and thinking for a long time.
Yansheng came to report that the steward of the accounting room had discovered something wrong with last month's accounts and came here to ask for instructions. Zuo Qing turned to look at the figure outside the courtyard, hesitated for a while, and then let someone in.
The accounting clerk held the account book but had no intention of submitting it. Instead, he looked at Zuo Qing anxiously and did not speak for a long time. Zuo Qing waved his hand and motioned for Yansheng to come down, and after taking him into Xinghan Pavilion, he asked: "Lin
You are in charge, but you are here to bring messages for others?"
Manager Lin was shocked and stunned. After a long time, he stumbled and said: "Master Manager...you are..."
"Sit down, let's have a cup of tea." Zuo Qing said with a friendly smile, "If your guess is correct, Lord Changsun is your master. You came here today to help him seek help. Naturally, it is Changsun Yue who saved you."
"I don't dare to deceive you. This humble post is indeed sent by Lord Changsun, but how can you see through it?" Manager Lin wiped his cold sweat and didn't dare to look at him. He always felt that the eyes of the young man sitting in front of him could see through people's hearts.
.
Zuo Qing took a small teapot from the tea table and held it in his hand, and said to him: "The Changsun family has had three accountants. One died, and the other committed a crime and was sent to the Ministry of Punishment. The one now is Changsun Wuming.
confidant, and you are the one who committed the crime. Changsun Wuzheng valued you, so he found a scapegoat to die for you, and then helped you change your name and arranged for you to enter the academy. Originally, I would not have known this, but you
The case was very strange, as if it had been tampered with, so I checked it out out of curiosity."
Manager Lin was horrified. When Mr. Changsun forged the documents, he thought that the fewer records he had, the safer it would be. He never thought that it would arouse Zuo Qing's suspicion, but... why would Zuo Qing notice him, a little-known person?
He didn't have time to think carefully, so he knelt on the ground and told the truth: "Last year, the eldest grandson was framed by Wuming. Fortunately, the eldest grandson had already become the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, so I was able to escape. Now, if Miss eldest grandson is in trouble, I will definitely do my best.
!" Manager Lin became more and more excited as he spoke. He stood up, knelt down and said with tears in his eyes: "Master in charge, Master Changsun knows that you are in trouble, but it is about people's lives. Please help me!"
Zuo Qing helped him up and said, "My alliance with Lord Changsun will not ignore death, but this matter involves a very wide range of things, so I have to reconsider it and start a new plan."
"What do you mean, sir, are you willing to help?" His eyes were extremely bright.
Zuo Qing nodded: "It's just that I still need to wait for some news. When it comes, maybe there will be a turn for the better."
"If I hadn't waited..."
"Then there's really no way out."
Manager Lin collapsed on the ground, feeling sad, but the next moment, he quickly got up, bowed his back deeply, pushed his hands in salute, "I believe that the boss can turn the tide, and he will."
Seeing his sincere expression, Zuo Qing couldn't help but feel a little admiration.
