Canglan Empress

Chapter 368 Xiuyun Building

It's just that Rong Jin compromised so easily, which was beyond her expectation.

Is this called "one thing down one thing"?
Xuanyin didn't ask any more questions. Yaohua had to deal with Rong Jin herself, and she didn't have much interest in him.

"What's the second thing?"

Xianxian came over with a tray, saluted the two of them gently and elegantly, then quietly poured tea for Wen Jinyan and Xuanyin, and retreated quietly.

Wen Jinyan held the teacup and looked at Xuanyin fixedly, "A person died in Xiuyun Tower last night."

"Xiuyun Tower?" Xuanyin was slightly stunned, frowned and thought for a while before realizing what Xiuyun Tower was, "The biggest brothel in Yongjing?"

Wen Jinyan nodded.

"Who died?" Xuanyin raised her eyebrows, "Oiran?"

A brothel is a place for men to have fun. Although the oirans in the building are famous, they are all weak women of low status. It is nothing to be tortured to death when they meet powerful dignitaries who don't know how to pity women. Strange thing.

However, it is unlikely that it is the oiran of the brothel who made Wen Jinyan mention it on purpose.

"It's not the oiran, but the young master of a high-ranking official's family." Wen Jinyan said, taking a sip of tea in an elegant and leisurely manner, with a leisurely voice, "This man is Yin Zhuo, the only son of Duke Yin. Xuanyin, Do you know who King Yin is from?"

Xuanyin was silent when he heard the words, and then looked at him with strange eyes: "Jin Yan, so you are also a master who likes to play charades?"

Wen Jinyan chuckled, "I'm also a mortal."

"Junwang Yin, I know." Xuanyin held the teacup and raised his eyebrows carelessly, "He is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager, and his son Yin Zhuo is the Empress Dowager's own nephew and the Emperor's own cousin."

As she said that, Xuanyin frowned slightly: "The death of Yin Zhuo will definitely alarm the Queen Mother and the Emperor. I'm afraid this matter will cause an uproar."

Wen Jinyan lowered her eyes quietly and sipped her tea.

Even if it's just such a casual and leisurely gesture, if he does it, it's as elegant as a nobleman walking out of a painting.

"The uproar has already begun." He said, "The empress dowager was shocked and pained when she learned about this, and in her anger, she put pressure on the emperor, asking the emperor to make decisions for the Yin family. Emperor Tiande has ordered the guards to arrest him."

Take people?

Xuanyin raised her eyes: "Is Yin Zhuo assassinated?"

"Assassination?" Wen Jinyan smiled slightly, "Although King Yinjun enjoys the honor of the queen mother and the emperor, he has no real power in the court and does not hinder anyone's interests. With the queen mother behind him, who would foolishly assassinate Yinjun?" The only son of the king?"

There is no reason to assassinate, nor the guts to assassinate.

Xuanyin nodded upon hearing this, "If it wasn't an assassination, then there is probably only one reason for her death in the brothel, a conflict over beauty, or an accidental death."

Either he died at the hands of a beauty, or he died because of the jealousy caused by a beauty. Even if it was an accident, it couldn't be an accident without a reason.

Xuanyin pondered for a moment, then a thought suddenly flashed in her mind.

Looking up at Wen Jinyan, she frowned and asked, "Who is the murderer?"

The murderer should be the key.

Otherwise, Xuanyin couldn't think of a reason for Wen Jinyan to mention this matter on purpose.

Although Yin Zhuo's status in Yongjing is not low, he is a relative of the emperor, and naturally people regard him as an emperor everywhere he goes, but to Wen Jinyan and Xuanyin, this person is at best a passer-by First.
