Mu Xiu frowned: "As long as the other person is still alive, how can they not find out."

"The subordinates are incompetent, and the Wuxiang building is tightly guarded. The people in the building seem to have some mysterious mark unknown to outsiders. Our people can't get in at all."

"Then what does that person mean?" Mu Xiu subconsciously stroked the jade in his hand, tracing the word '安' on the jade with his fingertips.

"This..." Ye Li hesitated to speak.

Mu Xiu said coldly, "Speak up if you have something to say."

Ye Li raised his eyebrows: "According to his account, the killer seems to be one of the few supporters of the prime minister among the people, and now the common people think that it was your majesty who killed the prime minister..."

Whether it was sad or angry, the reaction that Ye Li expected to appear on Mu Xiu's face did not appear

Mu Xiu just lowered his black eyelashes, looking at the jade in his hand

After a while, chuckled.

Ye Li looked up in surprise: "Your Majesty..."

He was stopped by Mu Xiu's raised hand before he finished speaking, and the lower half was cut off in his stomach

Mu Xiu said softly: "No wonder he said that I stole the throne."

It seems to be talking to myself, and it seems to be saying to the jade pendant in the opponent's hand

Ye Li knew how hard he had been through these years, from a gentle and jade-like youth to the current rock-like appearance.

Some worried that his emotions would affect his condition, so he couldn't help saying: "Your Majesty, don't blame yourself, you have done enough for the prime minister, if you hadn't sent people to infiltrate the people to spread the great achievements of the prime minister on the battlefield, I am afraid that all the people in this world will regard the Prime Minister as a villain and a traitor, and there will be no one who supports him."

Yes, when Prime Minister Song Liyuan was signed by the common people, the new emperor Muxiu, who had just ascended the throne, sent a group of his confidants to sneak into the streets of the capital, hiding among the common people and secretly spreading the word about his great achievements on the battlefield, trying to reverse the situation. The common people's prejudice against Song Huai'an.

This is also the reason why later on, when a prime minister of Southern Chu had two completely contradictory opinions from the people.

However, all of this is unknown to Song Huai'an, and also unknown to the world.

Mu Xiu waved his hand: "I'm not blaming myself, no matter what, I can't let go of any traces, let me check the clues, and this game of chess in the court is also going to the point of rise."

Ye Li said: "This subordinate obeys orders."

Mu Xiu didn't look at him, but waved his hand: "If you have nothing else to do, you can step back."

Ye Li responded, and just wanted to get up and prepare to leave, when he suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, everything is as you expected, some people will not be able to sit still."

Hearing this, Mu Xiu's face became indifferent again, he exerted a little force on his hands, and his knuckles turned white

He said: "Keep an eye on them, no matter who they are, I won't allow what happened last time to happen again."

"Subordinates obey."

Ye Li knew that he was referring to the matter of holding the moon tower that day, if His Majesty hadn't happened to meet him, then the young master in the side hall would have fallen to pieces.

Not long after Ye Li left, Zhao Chengde came in with a tray on which were placed a small white jade bowl and a small box of candied fruit.

The smell of medicine instantly filled every corner of the imperial study, even the incense in the censer couldn't cover it.

Mu Xiu raised his head and stared at Zhao Chengde, with a bit of bitterness and hatred in his eyes

Zhao Chengde turned a blind eye and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, put away the things in your hands first, it's time to drink medicine."

Mu Xiu's fingers stiffened, and he quickly put Yu Jue into his arms, straightening the corners of his mouth as much as possible.

Zhao Chengde had seen the things in his hands when he entered the door, and he didn't take them apart. He put the tray on the table, picked up the feather fan that had been prepared and shook it to lower the temperature.

It was found in his hands on the night that the Prime Minister committed suicide. It was originally a status symbol specially sent by His Majesty when he was still a prince when he was a child. It was made of the best white jade that can only be worn by emperors and generals. The prime minister is just a small companion.

Peiyu symbolizes the gentleman's morality of "benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, courage and cleanliness".

Zhao Chengde could even recall what His Highness the Crown Prince said when he handed Yujue into the hands of the Prime Minister.

He said: "Since you were born in Jianghuai, you will be called Huai'an in the future. This is a gift from the palace. Remember to wear it close to your body. A gentleman has no reason, and jade can never leave your body."

Later, on the occasion of His Highness the Crown Prince's birthday, the Prime Minister changed hands and gave the jade pendant to His Highness as a birthday gift in his own name.

Because the prime minister at that time had nothing that belonged to him except for the piece of jade His Highness had made for him on his body, it could be said that he had nothing.

Since then, His Highness has carried it with him and never left it.

In the end, it appeared in the hands of the Prime Minister who was locked up in the East Palace for punishment. When the body was found, the piece of jade was lying in the palm of his hand, tightly clenched, and the purple tassel at the end was soaked in the solidified blood on the ground.

"Even taking away my birthday present, he is blaming me for offending him in a moment of anger." Mu Xiu said at the time

But everyone is gone, so who can tell what happened?

Zhao Chengde sighed, touched the bottom of the bowl, it was no longer hot.

Compared with the days when His Majesty first looked at that thing without eating, drinking or sleeping, the appearance of being forced by the situation now is not bad.

As an emperor, His Majesty shoulders the burden of the whole world, not just one person.

His Highness is a long-lasting person, but it's a pity that this affection was not treated kindly in the end.

Why is the prime minister so upset?

Mu Xiu stared at him: "Zhao Chengde, what are you thinking?"

Zhao Chengde picked up the small plate of candied fruit: "Your Majesty is joking, what can this old servant think, the medicine is already warm, Your Majesty should drink the medicine first."

The crease between Mu Xiu's eyebrows instantly became heavier than ever before, and he looked at the bowl of medicine with incomparable disgust.

Zhao Chengde put the candied fruit by his hand: "Young Master ordered this old slave to bring it with you, Your Majesty, would you like to taste it?"

Mu Xiuxiu paused his hand as he was about to drink the medicine, and a flash of disbelief flashed across his eyes, which was fleeting.

But he didn't say much, he drank the medicine in the bowl silently, squeezed a piece of candied fruit into his mouth, and his complexion improved a little.

He said: "What can he gain from taking people to the prison?"

Zhao Chengde took over the bowl he handed over and said: "Master Xiaohou is really good at predicting things. Today, some villains sneaked into the dungeon and wanted to kill the empress, but Master Xiaohou caught him on the spot, but that person is good at Using poison, our people lost their mobility and were run away by him."

There was anger in Mu Xiu's eyes, and he slapped the table fiercely: "It's unreasonable!"

Zhao Chengde quickly persuaded: "Your Majesty, calm down, the villain is good at using poison, and our people will inevitably be hard to guard against."

Having said that, Zhao Chengde knew very well in his heart that the Imperial Forest Army had decided against this trash.

It is their uselessness to be regarded as a place like their own home, and there is no hindrance to entering and exiting.

Mu Xiu glanced at him, and said angrily, "If war breaks out, on the battlefield, will the enemy still treat you politely? Or will the villain wait for you to prepare for the assassination?"

Zhao Chengde's old face was embarrassing, but what His Majesty said at this time was the truth, so he could only remain silent.

Mu Xiu said with a sullen face: "I will pass on my order. The President of the Imperial Forest Army, Cheng Feng, will not be strict in his rule. He will be fined for half a year, and the left and right commanders will be dismissed from their posts. Let them go to the border to have a taste of the comfort of the imperial city!"

Zhao Chengde drafted the decree silently, His Majesty is really furious this time.

But there is someone who is not afraid of death and bumps into him at this time

A young eunuch with a skinny face who looked like a running toothpick hurried in, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please see me, Young Master."

Zhao Chengde felt uneasy, whether the young master can suppress His Majesty's anger is another matter

Mu Xiu's gloomy face and eyes were like knives, as if they had been cast on the head of the kneeling little eunuch. The little eunuch's fingers were trembling, and he didn't understand what was wrong.

Mu Xiu was silent for a while, and subconsciously twirled the jade wrench on his thumb. In Zhao Chengde's view, it was only a moment, but the little eunuch felt that the cold sweat on his back was about to soak his clothes

Mu Xiu finally spoke, "Let him in."

The little eunuch didn't dare to lift his head and backed out. Before going out, he stumbled on the threshold and almost fell on his back.

Mu Xiu stroked his forehead and covered his eyes with his hands.

Zhao Chengde made a pot of tea for him and put it on the small table on the Arhat bed on the other side, and put away the medicine bowl: "Although state affairs are important, your majesty's body is the foundation of the country. Don't work too hard. The old slave will first Retire."

Mu Xiu turned his palms inwards and waved them outwards

Xie Jin also walked into the house at this time, and bowed: "Cao Min sees Your Majesty."

The moment he saw the person, Mu Xiu's eyes moved slightly, and all the emotions that popped up in an instant were suppressed by him, and he said coldly: "What's the matter?"

Xie Jin cupped his hands and said: "The mysterious man who broke into the prison should be a master of disguise. After he escaped, the court lady found the body of a father-in-law in the flower garden. Presumably, that person sneaked into the sky by disguised as that father-in-law." firmly."

Mu Xiu frowned, and couldn't help asking: "Chang Rong? How could it be such a coincidence?"

Seeing his reaction, Xie Jin knew there was a problem, and said, "What does Your Majesty know?"

Mu Xiu waved

Xie Jin was stunned for a moment and then walked towards him

Mu Xiu patted the cushion on the side of the desk: "Sit."

Xie Jin sat down cross-legged and listened to him

"Have you ever heard of Wuxianglou in Jianghu?"

Xie Jin was slightly startled and fell into deep thought.

Few people know that Song Huai'an studied Taoism for a period of time with Zhongnan Taoist, the master of Southern Chu, and Wuxiang is a kind of Taoism.

The ropes and ropes are indescribable and return to nothing, which means that the shape without form and the image without image are called suddenly.[2]

After a while, he said calmly: "I have heard a little bit, it is said that it is a place where money is used to buy lives."

Mu Xiu nodded: "According to my people's investigation, the Tsing Yi guest, the founder of Wuxianglou, is best at the art of disguise, but his whereabouts are a mystery, and he has disappeared since his establishment, and has never appeared in the world. In the face, whether it is dead or alive is still unknown..."

Xie Jin frowned slightly: "Then this is indeed a bit of a coincidence, but Your Majesty, how do you know that the enemy is not confusing the public? After all, there are as many strange people in the Jianghu as the carp in the river, and this guest in Tsing Yi is not the only one who can change his appearance .”

Mu Xiu tapped his finger on the table, did not answer, and looked at Xie Jin after a while, and said in a very meaningful tone: "Young master is very smart, I am very pleased to have you to share my worries."

Xie Jin's back felt cold, and goosebumps popped up on his arms

Hey Your Highness, I am sincerely trying to solve your problem!You still doubt me!Is there any humanity anymore!

But he did relax for a while, and analyzed the unusualness of the whole thing out of habit.

But the name of the original idiot moved the capital, and it was even more unusual for an idiot to think of the key to this matter.
