Xiao Yujue's situation is getting more and more difficult, and the Ling family members have done a lot of things openly and secretly.
Shangguan Yue felt that he knew these emperors well, but he chose to remain silent.
This gives those little people who worship high and step on low an illusion.
They felt that Xiao Yujue intended to be rude to Concubine Chen and even went to the emperor's dragon bed, which had already reached the emperor's bottom line.
The emperor could not give him any chance to turn things around.
Shangguan Yue and Mu Jingrui met again in private. In a helpless situation, the two had to agree to let Shangguan Wanning go to Southeast Prefecture Prefecture to investigate the evidence of the crimes of the Ling family father and son.
The afternoon sun has a bit more lazy and comfortable.
Su Mo gave the written words to Shangguan Wanning and asked with a smile: "Sister Ning, do you think I've written better?"
Shangguan Wanning put down the book in her hand, took it and took it and took a closer look.
"Momo, you are really strange. Your own name is simple, and you don't know how beautiful you write it. Instead, it's Brother Huo's name... There are so many strokes of Huo, and you write it so neatly."
When Su Mo heard this, a bright light appeared in his eyes.
"So, my brother will praise me if he sees it?"
"yes."
Shangguan Wanning has always been curious about the relationship between Huo Gang and Su Mo, but she didn't take the initiative to mention it, and she was embarrassed to ask.
"I'll show it to my elder brother now." Su Mo took the words he wrote and left happily.
Shangguan Wanning looked at her disappearing back and sighed silently.
She followed Su Mo's footsteps and went to the backyard, and saw Huo Gang teaching his servants some simple punches and foot skills.
During this period, Shangguan Wanning had been observing Huo Gang secretly. She felt that Huo Gang seemed to have an innate affinity and leadership.
With a bit of majesty in kindness, she became even more curious about Huo Gang's past.
"Brother Huo."
"Miss."
Huo Gang returned the words written by Su Mo to her and greeted Shangguan Wanning.
"Miss, Momo has caused you trouble."
"No trouble. I have no friends at all. Momo often comes to accompany me, and I can't be too happy."
Shangguan Wanning said, then waved his hand to deport the servant who was practicing martial arts.
"Miss, is there anything you are asking me for?"
"I... have something to ask Brother Huo for help."
"Miss is just asking, why are you going to help?"
Shangguan Wanning lowered her head, as if she was very embarrassed. "Brother Huo, I want to go to Southeast Prefecture Prefecture to investigate the evidence of the crimes of the Ling family father and son. I know, you are more familiar with those, can you accompany me? ”
After Shangguan Wanning finished speaking, she stared at Huo Gang in a daze, feeling inexplicably nervous.
She could sense that Huo Gang had always been a evasive attitude towards the past.
Sure enough, Huo Gang's face changed slightly, he turned his back and clenched his fists tightly, and there was a little more melancholy and sadness between his eyebrows.
"No...we don't go back..."
Before Huo Gang could speak, Su Mo said first: "We can continue to wander around the world, and it's good to go anywhere... I just don't go back. Brother, right?"
Su Mo grabbed Huo Gang's hand and eagerly wanted to get Huo Gang's affirmation.
Huo Gang's fist gradually loosened, he gently patted Su Mo's hand, and comforted softly: "Momo, don't worry, brother will not take you back again."
After saying that, his eyes turned to Huo Gang. "I'm sorry, Miss, I can't help you."
Shangguan Wanning was a little disappointed, but she didn't want to repay her kindness, which made people unable to do anything.
"It's okay, Brother Huo doesn't have to take it to heart."
Shangguan Wanning smiled slightly and went back with Lutong.
She reported this to her father, which made Shangguan Yue, who had finally made up his mind to ask his daughter to investigate, began to hesitate again.
"Dad, don't worry. Even if Brother Huo doesn't go, you can choose a confidant master to secretly protect me. My safety is not a problem. I promise you that I will act according to the opportunity. If the situation is really not good, I will
Save your life first.”
Shangguan Yue had no choice but to agree to act according to the original plan.
Shangguan Wanning did not bring Lutong with her during this trip, and she was worried that there would be danger.
But at noon the next day, he left the capital in a low-key manner.
When Mu Jingrui learned that Huo Gang had no friends, he selected a secret guard with high martial arts skills from his subordinates to accompany him.
After walking for more than ten days, it was always calm.
That evening, Shangguan Wanning and two entourages found a station to stay in.
This is a major transportation route from south to north, so the flow of people is very large. When the lights are in, it is the peak period for hotels in Tajian. After they went in, they waited for a long time before a waiter came to greet him.
"Sorry, please come in, please."
The waiter took Shangguan Wanning and the other two to a table and sat down, and asked with a smile: "What do you want to eat?"
"Five side dishes, two meats and two vegetables, and another bowl of soup. Make it cleaner and more careful, and my son eats it carefully."
The entourage took out a ingot of silver from his arms and put it on the table. Someone took some broken silver to give it to the waiter as a reward. "The three horses at the door are ours. Take them to the stable to take good care of them, and use the feed.
OK."
When the waiter saw the appearance of these three people, he guessed that they were either rich or noble. He immediately put the silver reward into his arms and went to do business with a smile.
The entourage poured a cup of tea for Shangguan Wanning, lowered his voice and said, "Miss, there are many people in the hall with weapons. It seems that they will not be peaceful tonight. After you finish your dinner and go to rest, no matter what happens outside.
Don't worry about anything."
Shangguan Wanning looked around curiously, but did not see any abnormality.
However, she believed in the judgment of the two followers and nodded slightly.
At night, Shangguan Wanning lay on the strange bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Some fragments of her previous life always flashed in her mind from time to time.
She became more and more awake and secretly made up her mind to support Xiao Yujue ascend to the throne.
Because only when Xiao Yujue becomes the emperor can she protect her family.
Shangguan Wanning vaguely heard the sound of weapons handing over in a daze. She sat up from the bed with a tremor, lost all sleepiness, hurried to the window and looked out through the gap.
I saw two groups of people fighting and overturning.
She remembered what the follower said, and stayed in the room and did not go out.
Suddenly, with a loud noise, her door was knocked open, she flew in alone, her back hit the pillar, and her body fell softly to the ground like a piece of rag.
Before Shangguan Wanning could react, she saw someone rushing in with a steel knife in hand.
They may not be coming for her.
However, they were covered in blood and their ferocious expressions still scared her.
"You have nothing to do with me when you do your business." As soon as Shangguan Wanning finished speaking, a gust of palm wind blew, and four men in black quickly rushed into the room and rushed towards her.
