After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

The Governor's Mansion is large and spacious. Now, one courtyard after another has welcomed its owner, adding a sense of life to the quiet mansion.

Chen Long likes quietness, so Meng Qianqian specially arranged a quiet and elegant courtyard for him.

When Meng Qianqian went to find him with a lunch box, he was sitting in the yard in a daze.

"elder brother."

Meng Qianqian called out with a smile.

Chen Long showed no emotion and did not respond to her.

Meng Qianqian walked straight up to him and placed the steaming food box on the stone table.

She was facing the light, her figure illuminated by the moon in the sky on the ground.

Chen Long glanced at the ground and saw two figures.

"What are you here for?"

Chen Long asked expressionlessly.

Meng Qianqian sat down next to him: "Since you don't want to eat, I have no choice but to bring you food!"

Chen Long raised his eyes and looked at Lu Yuan: "I'm asking him."

Lu Yuan flicked his sleeves, folded his arms and sat down opposite Chen Long: "This is my home, I can go wherever I want."

Meng Qianqian swore to the heavens: "He is worried that you will harm me, but I absolutely believe in you!"

Lu Yuan said coldly: "Meng Xiaojiu!"

Meng Qianqian shuddered.

Chen Long looked at the unimpressive little tiger and said to Lu Yuan, "Why are you so fierce?"

Meng Qianqian: "Exactly, why are you so fierce?"

Lu Yuan: “…”

Lu Yuan turned his head away and stopped arguing with someone.

Meng Qianqian opened the food box and brought out several delicious dishes: "Sweet and sour fish, braised chicken, roasted eggplant, radish soup, and sweet potato cakes."

Chen Long took a look and found that they were all his favorite foods.

Wei Yang's words suddenly flashed through his mind: "Don't you think that Meng Xiaojiu's archery posture is very similar to that of a person?"

Chen Long's eyes moved.

He went to get the chopsticks: "Two pairs?"

Lu Yuan reached out and took a pair: "I haven't eaten either, do you think you are honored if I send food to you alone?"

Chen Long looked at Meng Qianqian: "You don't want to eat."

Meng Qianqian touched her round belly and said, "I really ate it."

The two grown men enjoyed their dinner leisurely, a pair of handsome men under the moon and flowers.

Meng Qianqian held her chin with both hands, feeling that it was so pleasing to the eyes.

But as I was eating, something felt wrong.

Is it an illusion?

It seems like there is murderous intent!

She looked at the two of them in horror, then suddenly had an idea and asked Banxia to bring a pot of wine.

"Come, come, drink, drink!"

She poured wine for both of them.

Lu Yuan raised his glass and said, "You are my guest. I will drink first as a sign of respect."

"The guest should follow the host's wishes." Chen Long also drank it all in one gulp.

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Keep drinking."

Chen Long showed no sign of weakness: "Drink it if you want."

Meng Qianqian covered her head. Why do I feel the murderous aura is getting stronger and stronger...

When the two of them went to pour the wine at the same time, Meng Qianqian stood up and hugged the wine pot: "Don't drink yet, finish the business first."

Chen Long: "What's the matter?"

Meng Qianqian asked: "What did you say to the other twelve guards in the princess's mansion?"

one day ago.

The Dragon, the Snake, the Goat, and the Pig were sitting in the pavilion of the Princess's mansion.

The first sentence of the Sheep is: "Do you think that the posture of the Tiger shooting arrows is very similar to that of a human?"

When these words were spoken, none of the Twelve Guards refuted them.

They understood who Wei Yang was talking about, but they felt it was a little ridiculous.

Wei Yang continued, "As far as I know, Meng Xiaojiu only met Li Haiya once at the border, and Li Haiya passed the Tiger Order to her. Don't you think that's too strange?"

Ji Li snapped open his folding fan and said, "Yes, so we shouldn't acknowledge her!"

Snake: "Don't make trouble."

Ji Li curled her lips.

Wei Yang said: "She must be related to Marshal Chu. Don't you doubt this?"

Sishe said: "But as far as I know, Marshal Chu has no sister, and it is impossible for him to have such a big illegitimate daughter. Could she be a relative of Madam Chu's family?"

Ji Li was rarely serious: "Little Yinhu is proficient in the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles, so it is not impossible."

Wei Yang said to Chen Long, "Chen Long, you have a good relationship with her, why don't you go and investigate her."

Ji Li was unhappy: "Who said they have a good relationship? I am Xiao Yinhu's neighbor!"

No one cares about him.

Sishe said, "I originally wanted to ask Chenlong something. Since everyone is here, I'll ask everyone. Where were you all on the night when the Chu family was wiped out more than six years ago?"

Ji Li waved his folding fan and said, "Li Haiya and I are going to Beiliang to carry out a mission. Didn't I tell you earlier?"

Wei Yang said: "I received an order from the Grand Marshal to capture the Beiliang spies in the city."

Haizhu said: "Me too."

Snake: "Okay, the second question is, who gave you the order? I hope you can answer at the same time. This is related to whether I will become your enemy."

Ji Li cooperated by raising his fingers: "Three, two, one."

The three of them said in unison: "Shen Monkey."

Ji Li sighed and said, "Oh my, now there is no evidence."

Wei Yang asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Ji Li waved his folding fan handsomely and said, "It means that there was a traitor among the Twelve Guards. Someone deliberately sent you away that night, causing the Chu family to be annihilated."

The Sheep frowned: "Is the Monkey a traitor?"

Ji Li smiled casually: "It may also be that you are lying using the Shen Monkey."

Wei Yang said unhappily: "What evidence do you have to prove that we are lying?"

Ji Li spread his hands: "That's why I said, there is no evidence until death."

Wei Yang asked, "Is it because the three of us have surrendered to the Prime Minister?"

Ji Li closed his folding fan: "Eh? I didn't say that, you said it yourself."

Sishe asked: "Why did you seek refuge with the Prime Minister? He might be the murderer who murdered the Chu family."

Wei Yang said coldly: "Whether the Prime Minister is the murderer or not has nothing to do with us. I lost the bet to the Grand Marshal, and I accepted it. We agreed that as long as he lives, we will sell our lives for him, but we didn't say that we will avenge him after his death. From the moment he died, the contract between us ended."

"Now that it's over, what does it matter who we work for? It's enough that we didn't kill the person."

Ji Li said, "Hey, we've been through life and death together, aren't you being a little too cold-blooded to say that?"

Snake stood up and said, "If I find out that you are traitors, I will kill you with my own hands."

Wei Yang frowned and looked at him: "Si Snake, you are not trying to avenge Marshal Chu, are you? Why are you doing this?"

Snake's melancholy blue eyes looked towards the distant sky: "Because he promised to do something for me, and no one else can do it except him. Now he is dead, and my hope is gone. The person who destroyed all this needs to pay the price."

Chen Long omitted several people's speculations about her and just started from when Si She began to interrogate her about the truth of that night.

Meng Qianqian looked at Chen Long, who was lying on the table, drunk and unconscious, and muttered to herself: "What did you promise Si She? Did I agree to it, or did Chu Nan agree to it?"

"What are you mumbling about?"

Lu Yuan glanced at her nonchalantly.

"Nothing." Meng Qianqian smiled slightly, "The Grand Commander is still the best at drinking! My brother is drunk, I will help him in."

"Brother, brother, you don't call me husband so often." Lu Yuan muttered softly, and said unhappily, "Call Yu Zichuan over later."

Meng Qianqian thought about it and said, "That's fine."

It seems that the Sheep and the Pig were really instigated to rebel by Prime Minister Xun.

Prime Minister Xun, do you also want to get the Twelve Guards?
