Chapter 906
Emperor Ling ordered Ling Yunzhan and Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the arms smuggling case. After Pei Yan stepped down from court, he began to sort out the files. Suddenly, a portrait fell down.

The portrait is a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old, with a beautiful and refined face, especially a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, as bright and clear as spring dew, she is definitely Rong Jiu.

The dim light in Pei Yan's eyes was unpredictable. After taking a look, he closed the portrait in his hand and continued to organize the files.

There were slight footsteps coming from outside the house, but he didn't pay attention at first, until the person walked in front of him: "Pei Shaoqing."

Pei Yan looked up and saw that it was Ling Yunzhan, he immediately got up from behind the case, raised his hand and bowed to him: "His Royal Highness King Zhan."

"Pei Shaoqing doesn't need to be polite." Ling Yunzhan said with a smile, his eyes flicked over the files on the case, and stopped on the account book, "Did you find anything?"

Pei Yan shook her head, caught a glimpse of a corner of the portrait under the file, and said with a calm expression: "This case is complicated and confusing, and now His Royal Highness Su Wang is involved. I want to go to Su Wang's mansion, Your Highness, do you want to go together?"

Ling Yunzhan said: "Let's go together."

After noon, the heat is getting stronger, and the bright sunlight is shining with colorful colors.

In Su Wang's mansion, the Liuying Pavilion was built next to the lake, and the wind blows in all directions, bringing a little bit of coolness.

Inside the pavilion, Rong Su flicked his pen and heard the sound of footsteps, but did not lift his head: "How's the investigation going?"

Ling Qi just came back from the outside, sweating profusely, poured a cup of tea and drank it down: "The man's name is Liu Da, he is an ordinary handyman in Tan Wang's mansion, he doesn't know martial arts, he was killed by a knife, and he also illiterate."

Ling Yunsu made the last stroke, and said calmly: "Brother's heart is higher than the sky, but unfortunately, he is brave but not resourceful."

Ling Qi glanced at it. It was a word for "mou", with a sharp pen and a stern style, and there was a kind of restrained and awe-inspiring domineering.

Ling Yunsu looked up at him: "Where is the Zhao Mansion?"

Ling Qidao: "There is a accountant Mr. Wang Wu. He only knows that before he entered the mansion, he was a poor scholar who failed the ranking. I can't find any clues about the others."

Ling Yunsu was not surprised, but said: "I'm afraid even the identity is false, Fengwei is a good way, you send someone to help Fifth Brother secretly, for the rest, just wait and see."

"Your Highness," Lin Yu came in and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Zhan and Pei Shaoqing are here."

"Invite them in."

"Yes."

Lin Yu retreated in response, but it was Rong Jiu who led the two of them in. Ling Yunsu looked at her inquiringly with indifferent eyes.

Rong Jiu said with a smile: "I just met outside." While speaking, he had already arrived at the case, and was sitting beside him fetching water to make tea.

Pei Yan bowed to Ling Yunsu: "I have seen Your Highness."

Ling Yunsu said: "Pei Shaoqing and Fifth Brother came together, but because of the arms smuggling case?"

Pei Yan nodded, her eyes fell on the desk table: "Make a decision before making a move, Your Highness seems to have a plan in mind."

Ling Yunsu's eyes swept across his face, and fell on the sparkling lake, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Pei Shaoqing has something to say, there is no need to test this king."

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, Pei Yan bowed his head and said, "It's the lower official's slip of the tongue."

At this time, the new tea was just boiling, Rong Jiu poured the tea into the cup and pushed it in front of several people, but Pei Yan accidentally knocked over the tea cup, and the hot tea spilled all over her body.

A very faint light flashed across Ling Yunsu's eyes, and he drank tea lightly: "Qingluo, take Pei Shaoqing to change clothes."

Rong Jiu responded, and said to Pei Yan: "Pei Shaoqing, please follow me."

Pei Yan nodded: "Young lady."

After leaving Liuying Pavilion, the two walked along the lakeside under the shade of trees. Rong Jiu looked calm and said bluntly, "Did Pei Shaoqing do it on purpose just now?"

Pei Yan didn't deny it, and turned her head to take a deep look at her: "Do you know King Yue?"

Rong Jiu curled her lips into a smile, and the sparkling water reflected the smile on her face, but it was cold: "King Tan once said that I was a rebellious minister hiding in Prince Su's mansion, pretending to be a woman, could it be that Pei Shaoqing also thought so? "

"I have worked with King Yue for a long time, so I naturally know whether he is a man or a woman. What's more, King Yue has a mole behind his right ear." Pei Yan looked behind her ear and said with a smile, "Young lady doesn't have one."

"It turns out that the real purpose of Pei Shaoqing's visit to Prince Su's Mansion is to test me."
