Chapter 137
"Because of curiosity, and knowing that what the little girl was alluding to was Liang Ziyuan's disturbing, His Highness wholeheartedly agreed to the little girl's seemingly absurd request. If there were any other people or things, His Highness would not rashly agree." Zhang Ke still knows the fourth prince quite well, he is cautious, prudent, and dare not take risks easily for the unknown.

Li Cheng was noncommittal, "From now on, you should pay more attention to this matter. Maybe there is a secret about the little girl that we don't know. We have to find out why she saw Zhao Quanhai this time. have……"

He paused, "The heart-piercing arrow appeared in the world and shot and killed the grandson of the emperor. This matter will definitely cause an uproar in the court. First, the heart-piercing crossbow is still being developed by the Military Weapons Supervision, but it is used to shoot and kill the royal family. It was because of the leak of its blueprints that people took the lead and made the heart-piercing crossbow first; secondly, Yunsheng was assassinated, and the target was definitely my fourth prince's mansion. If the two phases are superimposed, father will definitely suspect me There is a suspicion of stealing pictures to make a big killer, so I think I have objections.

The assassination on Hengshan Road this time was obviously aimed at me. There will be a large number of courtiers and officials who will be investigated. For the time being, I will stay by Junsheng's side to protect him. You go back to Beijing first, and pay attention to the movements in Beijing at any time. People from all ministries should not move rashly. "

Zhang Ke frowned, "Since His Highness understands what the assassination is about, are you going to sit and wait for death?"

Li Cheng stood up with his hands behind his back and said: "It's better to be still than to move. We can only know who chose the right time to attack me." Infinite suspicion of him.

Zhang Ke thought of another point, "The Fifth Prince hasn't returned to Beijing from Weizhou for so long, I'm afraid he deliberately delayed his entry to Beijing to avoid suspicion."

"Not being in Beijing doesn't mean he didn't participate in this matter." Li Cheng sneered, "The last time the members of the Dongfang family in the Northern Wei Dynasty were killed, the Liang family was not only injured in Beijing, but almost all the spies in the Northern Wei Dynasty were also removed, making them lose their jobs." The eyeballs of the Northern Wei Dynasty are blocked, and the way to make money is also blocked. I am afraid that the fifth child has already put all the accounts on my head. Even if he did not participate in this matter, he must have known about it, otherwise how could it be so clever Have you returned to Beijing yet?"

"Your Highness is right. However, according to the news I just received, there were signs of the heart-piercing crossbow more than a month ago. Fu Yuanhao suddenly returned to Beijing from Hedu precisely because Yin Zhao was chasing and killing the little prince Rouran." He was nailed to death on a tree by a heart-piercing arrow. After he returned to Beijing, he reported the matter to the Holy Majesty and has been investigating it. His son was almost robbed this time, so it cannot be said that it has nothing to do with the case he is investigating. "

Li Cheng was taken aback, "Fu Yuanhao has been back to Beijing for a while, and our people actually reported this matter now?"

Zhang Ke said: "It seems that the eyes and ears in the palace are a bit useless."

Li Cheng fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he said: "I'm afraid that the father deliberately concealed it, so as to facilitate the secret investigation. In this way... Sir, let people pay close attention to the confession of the county magistrate You. If Mr. He is loyal to the father, he will definitely Do your best to dig deep along the line of magistrate You."

"Your Highness means..."

"Father is not old and dim-sighted. It is best for us to keep silent even more."

Zhang Ke nodded, "That's fine too. Your Highness just does his job well and doesn't get criticized. That's the best explanation."

Song Yanning returned to Beijing in a carriage in the afternoon, and went straight to the Nufang Office, just blocking Yun Yunming who was about to go back, and must drag him to Zuixinlou for a drink.

Something happened at home, Yun Yunming didn't have the heart to drink, he refused again and again, but he couldn't get rid of this follower no matter what, and finally he was tricked by him, and he followed him back to Yunfu.

Neither the mother nor the younger sisters came back, and the front and back yards were deserted.

With Song Yanning following, he was too embarrassed to leave him to accompany his wife and children, so he had to drink and play chess with him before sending him to the guest room to sleep.

Early the next morning, while he was still washing his hands in the room, he heard noises coming from outside.He thought that something serious happened again, and ran out without even wearing the hair crown. He saw that it was a plump and graceful noble lady who was leading a group of family members to enter Yunfu to search for someone, but was stopped by the gate .

He stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, Ma'am..."

When Manager Wang saw him coming out, he smiled wryly and said, "This is Mrs. Dechang Hou. The villain thought he was looking for Mr. Song, so he was going to call him. But Mrs. Hou said that he wanted to see the young master..."

Yun Yunming saluted and said, "Madam, what do you want to see?"

Mrs. Jiang has been sizing him up since he appeared.Until this time, she sneered, "Sure enough, he has some color, no wonder he has been running to Yun's house recently, so he was playing such a foolish idea."

Yun Yunming was puzzled, "What do you mean by Madam's words?"

Mrs. Jiang's face darkened, "What do you mean? Mr. Yun, don't pretend to be confused. I heard that you have already married, have a wife and children, how can you accompany him to do such indecent things?"

Yun Yunming was even more incomprehensible, and there was another commotion at the gate, but it was Mrs. Gao who returned to the mansion with a group of people.

Yun Yunming was a little surprised that they would return to Beijing early, and just as he didn't know what to do, Mrs. Gao got off the carriage and walked to Mrs. Jiang, "Mrs. Hou, don't misunderstand my Minger. Minger and Song Er The young master is just a colleague, there is no such thing as you think."

Mrs. Jiang suddenly smiled, "Madam said that, I must have really misunderstood. I heard that recently, my Song Er often comes to Yunfu for a night, but I don't know why?"

"I don't know about this. I only know that the visitor is a guest, so I can't be negligent." Mrs. Gao also said with a smile: "Before, I thought he had a crush on a girl from my family, and I was too embarrassed to say it. But yesterday, something happened like that. There are rumors about it... how about calling the Second Young Master Song to ask? Maybe Madam will follow me into the hall first so that I can drink a cup of hot tea and wait for your son while drinking?"

While they were talking, Yun Jinan helped Yun Lanan get off the carriage.Since they had traveled all night, the two greeted Mrs. Jiang in a haggard manner, and then walked inside.

Mrs. Jiang glanced at the two of them, but didn't look at them a second time.Just about to agree to Gao Shi's invitation, she turned her head and saw Yun Jiu'an approaching, she felt that this dark-skinned little girl looked familiar.As soon as he looked up, he suddenly saw the hairpin on her head and wanted to call her.

Yun Jiu'an also noticed that she was staring at the top of her head wrongly, and suddenly remembered the golden hairpin that she hadn't had time to tear off because of her hurry... She lowered her head and wanted to slip away, but fortunately Du Hu appeared in time to block her.

"Ma'am, my lord was afraid that my wife would not give him face, so I just left through the back door. If my lord has something to say, go back and talk about it. If my lord doesn't ask about the indiscriminate and troublesome people around, he will be upset. I'm afraid he won't do it in the future will be married."
