After the curfew, the palace was so quiet that it could only hear the footsteps of the occasional patrol guards, and the intermittent rain on the roof.

"Empress, the emperor has left his study and is coming to Jingyun palace." DUOXI brought hot ginseng tea and put it on the table.

Zhu Linglong leaned on her couch, opened her eyes lazily and asked, "have you done everything you were asked to do?"

"HMM." DUOXI nodded with a smug expression on his face. "As soon as that person appears, it's guaranteed to be clean and tidy," he said, raising his palm and making a "cut" gesture.

As soon as the voice fell, I heard father-in-law Qin's voice outside.

"The emperor arrived."

Zhu Linglong hurriedly got up to welcome her to the door and was about to salute. Jiang Yuyi had picked her up and smiled in her tired eyes. "I told you, it's inconvenient for you to salute now. Why can't you change it?"

"The emperor came back so late. My concubine forgot when she saw that the emperor was happy." Zhu Linglong, with a blush on her face, took Jiang Yuyi's hand and accompanied him to his bed.

Although this time I wish Linglong pregnant and can't sleep, Jiang Yuyi still often comes to spend the night. It seems that only here can he find some peace. The court hall and the imperial study were enough to give him a headache, while other concubines often only made him worse.

"I've been bored to death by those ministers recently. The Rong people have repeatedly invaded our border areas, but these good courtiers I raised have the same voice to solve the problem peacefully. The whole story is a big truth, but they are afraid of touching their own interests and don't want to go to war. Do you really think I'm a fool?" Jiang Jianyi couldn't help but say two more words. He seldom talks about political affairs in the harem on weekdays, So he laughed himself and held Zhu Linglong's hand. "I'm so angry that I told you these boring political affairs."

"My concubine doesn't understand political affairs and doesn't dare to intervene. It's a share of the emperor's worries to listen to the emperor. My concubine is too happy. How can she feel bored?" Zhu Linglong loved the one, poured a cup of hot ginseng tea and handed it to Jiang Yuyi.

Jiang Yuyi took the ginseng tea with one hand and grabbed Zhu Linglong's arm with the other. He pulled her into his arms and sat on his lap. Zhu Linglong took advantage of the situation to bury her head in Jiang Yuyi's neck, exhale like blue, and put her soft boneless little hand skillfully on the hot part of him. She knows how to relax him

"Empress, how do you..." DUOXI's surprised voice came from the outside. Before he finished, he saw Yue Lingxin break in.

Jiang Yuyi's enthusiasm, which had just been ignited, was like a extinguished flame in an instant, and there was even no Mars left.

Yue Lingxin could see Jiang Yuyi's black face completely, but he was still calm. He went to him and blessed him: "it seems that my concubine came at a bad time and disturbed the emperor's good interest. However, my concubine thought that I should not be able to sleep while I wish your concubine was pregnant..."

"Did I say I don't want to look at you again? If you break in without notice next time, I'll send two guards to the gate of Qingqiu hospital, so that you can't break into other people's places any more." Jiang Jianyi held the tea cup on the table, and his knuckles turned white with force.

"Anyway, I've been disturbed. Why don't the Emperor just listen to the minister and concubine? Otherwise, the emperor will lose a lot." Yue Lingxin bent his lips and said to Jiang Yuyi with a consistent flattering smile.

"I don't want to listen to you..." Jiang Yuyi was angry and impatient.

"My concubine thought that the emperor would want to know who was the real murderer who hurt Jiang Guiren. It seems that the emperor can not even want the truth in order to let my concubine be the murderer?" Yue Lingxin restrained his smile and looked more serious.

Jiang Yi kneaded the teacup with gravity. Almost a little strength was missing. He could crush the teacup. But he slowly relaxed his strength, raised his eyebrows and said, "well, if the murderer is really not you, tell me who the murderer is."

Yue Lingxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she was not so sure that her fierce method could force Jiang Yuyi to give in. But fortunately, at least he hasn't fainted and traded the truth for her stain.

"My concubine doesn't know the real identity of the murderer, but now that person, or someone who knows the truth, is in the imperial garden."

As she spoke, she glanced at Zhu Linglong, who was sitting next to Jiang Yuyi.

After Yue Lingxin said these words, Zhu Linglong's smile had completely disappeared from his face, and his hand was put down from Jiang Yuyi's arm and trembled gently on his knee.

Yue Ling was calm and saw that Zhu Linglong and DUOXI exchanged glances between the master and servant. DUOXI moved two steps aside and seemed ready to leave quietly.

Yue Lingxin smiled and then said, "before I came here, my concubine had informed Jiang Fan to catch people. By this time, they should have surrounded the place. As long as the person really appeared, it would be difficult to escape." after a pause, she added to Jiang Jianyi, "My concubine heard that Jiang Tongling had just returned to the court today and asked him to go out without authorization. Please forgive me."

I wish Linglong's face suddenly turned pale.

Seeing her expression, Yue Lingxin was a little relieved.

It seems that this bet won.

Thinking of this, Yue Lingxin's drama was more confident. "Is the emperor interested in going over with his concubines to check the truth? I don't know whether the emperor is as curious as his concubines. Who wants to slander his concubines by borrowing the matter of Jiang Guiren?"

She said slowly, as if she were really talking about something that had nothing to do with herself.

Jiang Jianyi didn't notice the reaction of others, but stared at Yue Lingxin's eyes, as if to distinguish the truth and falsehood of what she said from her face.

"If you are really so sure, it's OK for me to go with you. But if you just talk nonsense and want to transfer my doubts about you, you will regret it." Jiang Jianyi took a deep look at Yue Lingxin and got up and went out.

Yue Lingxin was used to his attitude and didn't feel angry. Instead, he followed up with a smile.

Anyway, so far everything has gone smoothly according to her plan. If nothing happens, I'm afraid some people will suffer tonight.

Yue Lingxin even looked forward to what Jiang Yuyi would look like when the truth was revealed. If you know that the real murderer is not himself he hates most, but

The intermittent rain failed to extinguish the torch light running all the way to the imperial garden.

Jiang Fan, the commander of the forbidden army, led two teams and surrounded the swing rack of the imperial garden in two ways.

A furtive shadow behind the tree was stretching his neck and looking around, as if waiting to peek at someone. However, what he was waiting for was a series of disorderly footsteps and the command of the commander of the forbidden army.

"Come on! Surround here. No one is allowed to approach or leave!"

When the shadow heard the sound, he realized that something was wrong and ran away from the path. Unexpectedly, he was hit by the imperial guards who rushed up. Several people worked together to capture him and escort him to the imperial commander.

"The emperor arrived. The queen arrived."

Just after tossing around here, I heard father-in-law Qin's voice spread into the imperial garden.

"Let's see the emperor and the empress." Jiang fanxi saluted first and immediately asked someone to bring the caught shadow forward. His tone was very insipid, but he still praised, "my lady really had a clever plan. Just now my subordinates took someone around the imperial garden and caught this man. My subordinates found this dagger from him."

Jiang Fan said and presented the dagger to Jiang Yuyi.

Jiang Fuyi weighed the dagger in her hand, and she immediately understood something, but she couldn't be easily sure. As he thought, besides, Yue Lingxin arranged the matter from beginning to end, and as the most suspected person before, she seemed unable to make a judgment with her one-sided words.

Yue Lingxin didn't talk much, smiled and looked at Jiang Yuyi, as if he intended to give him the opportunity to speak.

Jiang Yuyi couldn't care to get angry with her. He looked down at the young man kneeling in front of him and asked briefly, "who are you?"

"Slaves, slaves are xiaochunzi of the imperial dining room."

"The man in the imperial dining room? Then why are you wandering in the imperial garden in the middle of the night? Don't you know it's curfew time now?" Jiang Jianyi accentuated his tone. He always felt that the man's answer was too thoughtless, as if he had made an excuse for the scald on his hand early in the morning, and then recited it well. If it was irrelevant, How could he immediately ask someone to testify for him? He was so sure that Jiang Yuyi suspected that he was a suspect in the Jiang Guiren incident?

"Servant... I heard that there are a batch of chrysanthemums newly paid tribute from foreign countries in the imperial garden. I want to pick some flowers to give to my sister outside the palace. She has hoped to enter the palace since childhood, but..."

"Nonsense! Do you need a dagger to pick chrysanthemums? I think you're lying! Say, what's your purpose here!" Jiang Fan scolded with a straight face. His cold appearance is just like Jiang Jianyi.

It's really someone who has been with Jiang Yuyi for seven years. When Yue Lingxin saw Jiang fan like this, he was a little embarrassed. The boy who didn't like to talk in those days has grown up into a real man now!

"The slave didn't lie... What the slave said is true. Please see clearly!" xiaochunzi kowtowed repeatedly.

At this time, a shrewd light flashed in Yue Ling's heart. When Jiang Yuyi was interrogated, she kept staring at the man and always felt that there might be something to gain - sure enough, she made an unexpected discovery.

"Then, can you explain what this is?" Yue Lingxin suddenly stepped forward and grabbed xiaochunzi's hand.

Xiaochunzi's hand had many burn marks, and several congested blisters had not faded.

"This, this is the slave accidentally scalded when he was cooking soup on the stove a few days ago. Many people saw it! The slave didn't lie!" xiaochunzi quickly explained.

Yue Lingxin smiled and said: "You may think you are smart enough to let everyone see that you have been scalded to cover up the first wound on your hand, thinking that this will clear your suspicion. However, do you know that as long as the imperial doctor checks, you can be sure that these scald marks on your hand are old and new, and the time difference is not much, but the new scald covering the old wound is really easy to identify. So, if you don't have a ghost in your heart, why do you deliberately burn yourself to cover up your last scar? "

"I, I..." Xiao ChunZi's forehead was sweating, his head was bowed, his body trembled, and he couldn't speak.

"Now the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" Jiang Fan clasped xiaochunzi's back neck and forced him to crawl down, as if he was afraid of his excited behavior.

"No, I, i... it's not my intention, I'm also affected..." xiaochunzi saw that he couldn't get away, and he wanted to say it all.

"Emperor!"

The voice from behind interrupted xiaochunzi's words. Xiaochunzi raised his head and opened his eyes.
