Yusui Chang'an

Knowing that An Nanfeng was talking about something, An Zhixian was silently depressed for a while, and temporarily suppressed his thoughts to read other news:

On the day of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, the Minister of Civil Affairs was stolen. When Chu Chengye tracked down the thief, in order to cut off the prince's power, he framed the Minister of Civil Affairs with objects from the palace.

The emperor became suspicious, suppressed the matter, and followed the stolen goods to investigate secretly.

An Zhixian handed the secret letter to An Nanfeng:
"Leave some clues and ask someone in the palace to investigate Concubine Xian. Then reveal the matter to the prince."

After giving the instructions, An Zhixian read through the remaining secret letters one by one. When he learned that Chu Chengyao wanted to touch Qin Zhixu, An Zhixian's eyes deepened:
"Okay, since Qin Zongliang is so free, let him be busy."

Inside the hotel.

The servants who took care of Deputy Ambassador Mo did their duty all night. When it was almost dawn, the three of them were so sleepy that they couldn't open their eyes and lay down on the table to take a nap.

Hearing a noise outside the door, the three of them woke up in confusion, glanced at the figure on the bed, sat up and took a nap before regaining their energy.

When he brought hot water to wipe Deputy Ambassador Mo's face, he realized something was wrong and hurriedly checked Deputy Ambassador Mo's breathing with trembling hands...

Hua Yuncheng is inside the house.

Ah Zheng changed into the same clothes as before and saluted Hua Yuncheng, who was leaning on the bedside with her eyes closed and concentrating:

"If it weren't for the master's scent, I might not be able to come out for a while."

Hua Yuncheng's voice was lazy:
"Well, no one expected that extra manpower would be sent as soon as you entered. Did you do it cleanly?"

Before Azheng could answer, there was a knock on the door.

Hua Yuncheng gave Azheng a wink and asked him to open the door. He lay back on the bed, raised his hand and pinched the injured area. The corners of his mouth twitched in pain. He closed his eyes and pretended to sleep when he heard the sound of the door opening.
Dou Zhengzhi, who knocked on the door, followed Ah Zheng in. Hua Yuncheng sat up in confusion. The wound hurt so much that he let out a cry of pain and fell back on the bed. Ah Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to help him sit up. Dou Zhengzhi said he was concerned, but his eyes were carefully looking at Hua Yuncheng. When he saw that his face was sweating and his lips were white, and he looked weak and recovering from an injury, he got down to business:

"Your Highness, Deputy Ambassador Mo... didn't make it through last night... he just left..."

Hua Yuncheng cried out in disbelief:

"What? How could it be...Azheng, please change my clothes and put on my shoes. I have to go see Deputy Ambassador Mo. Hurry!"

Dou Zhengshi helped Hua Yuncheng sit on the bedside. When Ah Zheng turned around to get his clothes, he quickly put his hand into the quilt, felt the warmth of the quilt and quickly took it back.

When Hua Yuncheng went inside to see Deputy Ambassador Mo, Ambassador Dou Zheng found an excuse and left Azheng outside the door.

Seeing Hua Yuncheng's face full of guilt and anger after seeing Deputy Ambassador Mo, Ambassador Dou Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him. He also called doctors from Pingnan to diagnose and treat Hua Yuncheng because he was worried about Hua Yuncheng's wound.

After Hua Yuncheng changed the medicine and was helped back to the room by Ah Zheng to change clothes, Dou Zheng asked the doctor to go to a quiet place to talk:

"how?"

Doctor: "There is no smell of the incense that I ordered for Deputy Mo last night on Ah Zheng's clothes."

Most of the doubts in Dou Zheng's eyes were gone, and he waved away the doctor and called him to follow him:
"Remember Azheng's clothes just now, and take a break to go to His Highness and Azheng's house to see if they have the same ones. If so, bring them to me."

After he personally accepted the order and left, Dou Zhengshi's face was dark and unclear:
Vice Ambassador Mo had just offended the Sixth Princess, but turned around because of a dispute between King Rui and Mobei, and was stabbed by King Cheng. He died before even making it through the night. No matter how you look at it, this is too much of a coincidence...

Deputy Ambassador Mo was also a close confidant of the prince, and King Rui did have the motive to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

But the temperature of the bedding showed that King Rui had indeed never left. There is no scent of medicine in the house on Azheng's clothes. Is it really just a coincidence...
