Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 31 Virtuous
In order to find out the connection between the Feng family and the previous dynasty, Ling Youyao buried herself in the book all morning. Even though she got a headache when she read the book, she endured reading it.

Fortunately, the sky paid off, and finally let her find clues about the Feng family.

The Feng family, that is, the Yu family of the former dynasty, was demoted to Yunzhou due to mistakes. Later, when the country was destroyed, they came to the capital for unknown reasons, changed their names and surnames, and even entered the imperial court.

And there is only one reason for them to do this - to protect a person.

As for who that person is, Ling Youyao doesn't know yet.

But what she was sure of was that that person had a close relationship with the former royal family and was lurking in the palace.If she remembers correctly, there will be an assassination at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, and the murderer is the one Feng Zonghai would rather commit suicide to keep.

Ling Youyao, who noticed this, couldn't wait to talk to Fu Mingjue about it.

Fu Mingjue hadn't arrived yet, but Ling Qingyan was waiting.

"Brother, have you seen the prince in the palace?"

Ling Qingyan snorted softly: "You are a heartless little guy, you know how to care about your husband and son-in-law, why don't you ask me how I am doing recently?"

Ling Youyao smiled brightly: "Brother, how are you doing recently?"

"."

Got it!This hypocritical appearance.

Ling Qingyan didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he said: "The prince is still in the imperial study, and he probably won't be able to come out for a while."

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of her unnatural left hand, and frowned: "What's wrong with your hand?"

Embarrassment flashed across Ling Youyao's face: "I accidentally dropped it"

"Why did you accidentally break your hand?" Ling Qingyan was displeased, "You still haven't told the truth to your elder brother?"

Ling Youyao had no choice but to say: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that when I climbed over the wall, I fell unsteadily."

"Over the wall again?!" Ling Qingyan suddenly raised her voice.

"Why again?" Did she often do this before?
Ling Qingyan noticed that she had lost her composure, and said vaguely: "It's nothing, it's just that when you were young, I took you to climb over the wall to play, but my mother found out, and I was punished to kneel, so I have a bit of a shadow on you over the wall."

"Oh." Ling Youyao nodded, and changed the topic, "Brother, isn't it Xiu Mu today? Why did you come into the palace?"

Speaking of this, Ling Qingyan's expression became serious: "It's not because of the Feng family's case. Feng Zonghai died, and His Majesty was furious. That's why he asked us to enter the palace to discuss this matter."

Ling Youyao calmed down slightly, and asked, "The prison is heavily guarded, how could Feng Zonghai die?"

Ling Qingyan was not at all defensive, so she told her the details: "The jailer in charge of guarding was drugged last night, and someone sneaked into the prison. I think Feng Zonghai decided to commit suicide after seeing that person."

Sure enough
"Brother, who do you think that person is?" Ling Youyao tried to find out more information from Ling Qingyan.

Ling Qingyan thought for a while, and said, "Well, why do you ask this, little girl?"

Ling Youyao pouted, her brother was really not easy to fool.

"Brother, I'm worried about the lord. Since that man can sneak into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice quietly, what if he wants to take revenge on the lord in the future?" Ling Youyao tugged at his sleeve, eyes full of worry.

Ling Qingyan was amazed: "I can't see that you are so worried about the prince."

"The prince is my husband, of course I care about it!" When Ling Youyao said this, her face was not blushing and her heart was not beating, as if it was true.

Ling Qingyan compromised: "Okay, it's okay to tell you, but you must not tell others."

"Well, I promise not to say!"

Ling Qingyan straightened out his thoughts, and said, "The Feng family is actually the Yu family of the former dynasty. They have been dormant in the capital for these years. This time, the purpose of stealing Liangzhou's arms is probably also for the restoration of the country."

"Recovering the country?" Ling Youyao was stunned when she heard this, and she was very surprised.

"Well, the Yuanwu Guard, which should have perished long ago, is still alive. I guess the person who can sneak into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice should also be a member of the Yuanwu Guard."

Yuanwu Guards are all masters, and it is easy for them to sneak into the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

But there is one thing that is confusing -

The Yu family was just an ordinary family in the previous dynasty, Yuanwuwei had always only listened to the orders of the royal family, presumably there must be someone else behind Feng Zonghai.However, the royal family of the previous dynasty, from the eighty-year-old to the three-year-old child, were all beheaded for public display, and there were no survivors at all.

Who is the person behind it?
Ling Youyao fell into deep thought.

Yuanwuwei, she has read it in the book, as far as she knows, to command Yuanwuwei must have a soldier talisman, and must be of royal blood.

Thinking about it this way, the person Feng Zonghai desperately wanted to protect should be the orphan of the former royal family.

"Yuanwuwei's actions are too cruel. Compared with the prince's Xuanyuwei, the methods are more ruthless. Now that Yuanwuwei's existence in the world has been exposed by the prince, if they have revenge, I am worried." Ling Qingyan showed a worried look.

Ling Youyao smiled and said: "It's okay, brother, didn't you also say, does the prince have Xuanyu Guards? Now that they have been exposed, they should not take it lightly."

"I hope so."

While the two were talking, Fu Mingjue had already come out, and when he saw the carriage of the palace, he walked straight over.

"My lord." Xia Cheng clasped his fists and said.

Fu Mingjue glanced at the carriage lightly, and asked, "Is the princess here?"

"Yes, the princess said to pick you up."

Fu Mingjue curled his lips, and the coldness in his eyes melted a bit.

Ling Qingyan heard the voice, and said: "Since the prince is out, I'll go first, you take care of yourself."

At the end, I don't forget to add: "Don't climb over the wall in the future."

"Understood." Ling Youyao replied.

Fu Mingjue knew that Ling Qingyan was in the car, so he didn't get up and waited for him outside.

This was the first time Ling Qingyan saw Fu Mingjue in private, and the oppressive feeling became stronger, so he could only smile dryly: "My lord, I'll come over to say hello to Yao'er."

Fu Mingjue nodded slightly: "En."

Ling Qingyan rubbed his nose embarrassingly. Last time Fu Mingjue didn't accompany Ling Youyao back to the door. He still wanted to meet someone, so he had to question him. Now that he saw him, he didn't even have the courage to ask!
"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll go first." Ling Qingyan disappeared in a flash.

Ling Youyao raised her forehead, who would have thought that Master Ling, who will dominate the officialdom in the future, would be so cowardly now?

Fu Mingjue glanced at the back of Ling Qingyan who was running away, and then asked Ling Youyao: "What did elder brother tell you?"

"It's nothing, just chatting for a while." Ling Youyao didn't notice Fu Mingjue's address for Ling Qingyan.

"Why do you suddenly want to pick up my king today?"

Ling Youyao thought of an excuse early on, and said, "Didn't you say that you want me to serve you well, so I'm here to pick you up."

"The princess is really virtuous." Fu Mingjue looked at her meaningfully.

The corners of Ling Youyao's mouth twitched, and she said tentatively, "My lord, I heard from elder brother that His Majesty is angry today?"

"Ah."

Ling Youyao asked again: "Then Your Majesty didn't make things difficult for you?"

"He dare not."
