"His Royal Highness hasn't been out of the room for several days." Several servants guarding the door talked a lot.

"Isn't it? I only eat one meal a day. After a long time, my body can't bear it."

"Even the princess is not allowed to enter the room, and I don't know what the prince is thinking."

"I heard that the eldest son-in-law was assassinated. Many ministers are suspicious of the crown prince, and some ministers even..."

"Hush! Keep your voice down, just talk about the prince at the door. The prince is too lazy to argue with us servants, but you even talk about the government, is it too long?"

Several people suddenly dare not speak anymore.

Shangguanhong in the room was sitting in front of the desk, he closed his eyes as if he was resting, without any expression on his face.

After the silence at the door, Shangguanhong just opened his eyes, looked at the letter in his hand to understand what was happening outside, he sighed helplessly, "It's really exciting outside, the fourth emperor regained his freedom, followed by the assassination, There is also the order of the Yanguan, father, father, you used to slaughter your brothers in order to sit on the throne, but now you just sit back and ignore it."

Shangguanhong held his head in his hands, his eyes were getting colder, and the atmosphere in the room was as oppressive as the inner courtyard of a high courtyard.

"Your Highness, please see me, Prince Consort." A servant outside the door said softly, for fear of disturbing the abnormal prince.

"Let him in!"

When Mu Jin entered, he saw that the windows in the room were closed and the light was dim, which made people feel depressing, "Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Shangguan Hong just took a look, "Brother-in-law came here to ask me if I sent an assassin to kill you, right?"

Mu Jin nodded, "Your Highness, you also said that you know who the murderer is, is it true?"

"The assassin was not sent by me." Shangguan Hong raised his eyes, "If I say that the mastermind behind the scenes is the second emperor's younger brother, can you believe it?"

"This..." Mu Jin naturally didn't believe it when he said it was the second prince, especially since the current prince looked a little strange, "I wonder if His Royal Highness has evidence."

"evidence!"

"Haha!" Shangguanhong laughed suddenly, "There is no evidence, the second emperor brother in this palace is very similar to Yueer, no... the second emperor brother is still not as good as Yueer."

Mu Jin was puzzled, "What do you mean by that?"

"Do you know why Yue'er had a relationship with Lin Tianyou?" Shangguan Hong smiled calmly, "It's okay for me to tell you, Yue'er was helpless when she was young, her father didn't love her at all, Yue'er can grow up safely Today, thanks to the protection of the Lin family, it is a pity that her wings are hardened, so she wants to fly away."

Mu Jinhuang is in awe, no wonder Shangguan Yue once said that she owed this to the Lin family. From the very beginning, Shangguan Yue was taking advantage of Lin Tianyou's feelings, "Then why did the prince say that the second prince is like Princess Hexu?"

"He has been able to show off to me in silence for many years, but I have never known the second emperor's brother so far. Do you think the two look alike?" Shangguan Hong shook his head and laughed at himself, "Of course, Lun Yinren, no one can compare to Yue'er , After all, where does the royal family come from?"

Mu Jin disagreed, Shangguan Yue and Shangguan Ruo had a very good relationship, "But even so, it doesn't mean that the murderer is the second prince."

"I ordered people to check the whereabouts of the deceased in the mansion, and checked all the people who had contact with him in recent years." Shangguan Hong handed the list to Mu Jin, "There is a person on it, who is the second emperor's younger brother's close servant. I often invite Qinghualou to have fun, you can see for yourself!"

"It's always windy."

Looking at the name on it, Mu Jin frowned deeply, "Thank you, Your Highness, can I take this roster back?"

"what ever!"

"Mu Jin." Before Mu Jinlin went out, Shangguanhong said suddenly: "Although Yue'er is deep in thought, she values ​​affection. Although I don't like her, it cannot be denied that among so many brothers and sisters, there is only Yue'er, I sincerely regard her as my younger sister, so it's a bit contradictory to say that."

"It is indeed contradictory. I know who the princess is, and I don't need your highness to remind me." Mu Jin thinks that the prince is trying to win him over. "I have one last question. I wonder who gave the incense in your highness' room?"

"Yes... Second Imperial Sister, what's wrong?"

Mu Jin had a meal, the incense was given by the second princess, and the second prince sent someone to contact the people in the prince's mansion. There were signs that both of them were suspicious, "Then, does the prince know where the second princess's incense came from?" ?”

"I don't know, why, what's wrong with this incense?" The prince frowned.

"It's nothing, just ask and leave." Perhaps, she had to go to the second princess's mansion to ask, but when she thought of the second princess's wolf-like tiger, Mu Jin suddenly became timid again.

After Mu Jin finished speaking, she turned around and left the Prince's Mansion, and returned to the Princess Mansion with the roster. She flipped through the roster, and the time and place were clearly recorded on it.

"It's strange... No matter how clear the memory is, it's impossible to record it so completely, as if it was written deliberately." Mu Jin was puzzled, "Could it be that the prince deliberately guided me?"

"If the list is true, then it is possible that the Thousand Machine Boxes were sold to the second prince, and Chang Feng is a close servant, so he must be a master."

Mu Jin recalled that the suspect who was killed in the Prince's Mansion that day, if it was really a member of the Qianji family, maybe the Qianji family might also join the second prince.

"It's a bit strange." Mu Jin thought about it carefully, "The man who died in the Prince's Mansion, although the strangle marks on his neck were messy, and there were traces of struggle when his fingers were bent, why were his clothes and shoes neat?"

Thinking of this, Mu Jin subconsciously patted his head, "My God, I'm bald, I shouldn't go to the obstetrics and gynecology department, it's not bad to be a forensic doctor."

"What is obstetrics and gynecology?" Shangguan Yue stepped into the door, "What do you mean by forensic medicine?"

"Um...that's Wen Po and Wu Zuo." Mu Jin's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly handed her the roster, "Look at this, I got it from the crown prince, don't you think it's strange?"

"Qinghualou!" Shangguan Yue raised his eyebrows and took it over without embarrassing her, "It should be true."

While Mu Jin was thinking, Shangguan Yue suddenly said: "From now on, when talking to Emperor Father, be more tactful and don't be stubborn."

The contemplation was interrupted, and Mu Jin's expression remained unchanged, "How do you know the conversation between me and the Holy Majesty? You dare to put eyeliner around the Holy Majesty!"

"It's not Ben Gong's eyeliner." Shangguan Yue shook his head, "It was arranged by Brother Four. As for who it is, Ben Gong doesn't know."

Thinking of what the prince said, Mu Jin had doubts deep in his heart, "The fourth prince has just come out, and it is impossible to install an eyeliner in a short time. This person has either been installed from the beginning, or..."

"Even though Brother Four has been locked up all the time, it doesn't mean that he will sit and wait for death." Shangguan Yue indirectly answered Mu Jin's doubts.

It turned out to be the case.

"Don't worry, you won't be as aggressive as you were yesterday when you speak in front of the Holy Spirit."

Shangguan Yue hesitated for a while, "The prince's mansion was intercepted halfway. When I found out about this assassin, he went to the second imperial sister's mansion. Gelemwa is lustful by nature. Maybe the second imperial sister..."

Shangguan Yue frowned, as if she didn't want to have such a guess, but Mu Jin heard the general meaning, the second princess may have exchanged her body for benefits, not to mention, she was afraid of losing her reputation, and even more afraid of hurting the royal family's face.

"If what you said is true, then the second princess wants to kill me?" Mu Jin seemed to have insufficient brains, "But, why, is it because I am at odds with the second son-in-law? Or is she trying to vent her anger for the prince? If so , then it’s not surprising that she knows about my itinerary.”

A series of questions filled his head. Mu Jin sat down and rubbed his forehead in agitation. Shangguan Yue walked around behind him and stretched out his hand to rub it for her.

For just a moment, a stick seemed to be stirred in Mu Jin's mushy head, causing her to be dizzy now.

It's rare to meditate, and I hope this moment will last forever.

"I tell you this because I want you to keep a distance from the second imperial sister. The second imperial sister loves to make trouble since she was a child, and she became even more insane after she was released from the palace at the age of Ji. Regarding this, my father is also very troubled."

Hearing this, Mu Jin's thoughts came back, and she understood that Shangguan Yue and Shangguan Ling meant the same thing. Sometimes she especially wanted to ask "whether her life is important to her", she turned her head away and said, "Don't worry, the sage is golden You are not allowed to check what you say, I will not go to the second princess."

Shangguan Yue pursed her lips, dropped her hands, just smiled and said: "That's very good, you will stay in the mansion to practice martial arts in the past few days, and after Yan'er and Ji, I will take you out to relax."

Mu Jin nodded, "Yes."

"Then you should rest well."

Shangguan Yue had just left the room, her deep eyes gradually radiated a frost, she went directly to Qinghualou, ordered the old bustard to investigate the deceased and Du Changfeng coming and going in and out of Qinghualou, and found that it was exactly the same as the list given by the prince .

Shangguan Yue frowned tightly, "It is impossible for the prince to have such a clear roster, unless there are people from him in Qinghualou."

"It's impossible. The girls in the building were carefully cultivated by my subordinates." The bustard lowered her body, "Your Highness, do you need to test them again?"

"No, someone should have leaked this roster on purpose." Shangguan Yue shook his head, "How is the investigation of the person named An Cai in the Prince's Mansion?"

Hearing this, the old bustard took out a note and handed it to her, "Your Highness, this man named An Cai is neither the crown prince nor the second prince. Considering his identity, even if his parents are dead, it’s impossible that even the neighbors don’t know him.”

"I don't know where I got the money? I once had contact with an eunuch." Shangguan Yue looked at the note and frowned, "I entered the Prince's Mansion four years ago... and..."

Shangguan Yue paused, she squeezed the paper tightly, as if she thought of something, her complexion gradually became ugly, her eyes were a little confused, "Tell the Privy Councilor that An Cai has contacted an eunuch in the palace, don't disclose it to her."

The bustard didn't dare to ask further questions, "Yes, Your Highness."

"I hope Bengong thinks too much!"

……

Shangguan Ling entered the alchemy room, saw that the room was steaming, and Tai Jieer was preparing the bright red powder, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Recently, the national teacher seldom goes out for alchemy, and I feel really guilty in my heart."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to feel guilty. Apart from alchemy, I don't know anything else. Besides, this is my personal interest." Tai Jieer put down the powder box in his hand.

"What is this?" Shangguan Ling was curious, reached out his hand to pick up the box and smelled it, "It doesn't smell like anything."

"No!" Tai Jieer hurriedly covered the powder with his hand, "This powder is poisonous, if you inhale it into your nose, there is no cure."

"poison!"

Shangguan Ling exclaimed, and quickly put it down, "Why does the national teacher want to make poisonous powder?"

"Your Majesty, this subject likes to make poison, even if he takes poison for a long time, his body will be different from others."

Shangguan Ling was slightly afraid, "I used to ask you about the elixir of longevity medicine, but you never revealed it. Could it be that the elixir is poisonous!"

"Don't be afraid, my lord. If I want to kill you, I won't stop it just now. The medicine is three-point poison. Humans have a strong preparation and adaptability. If you eat too much, your body will gradually adapt, and eventually you will die." The Holy Majesty will live forever just like the minister." Tai Jieer sighed, "This is also the reason why the minister is unwilling to tell the Holy Majesty the alchemy formula, the Holy Majesty will not believe me."

"No... Gu believes in you." Shangguan Ling showed a smile, "Gu has been busy with state affairs, and his martial arts has been stuck in the fourth realm, but because of taking the pill given by the national teacher, Gu broke through to the fifth realm inexplicably, and Gu is now full of strength."

"That's good!" Tai Jieer breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will taste these poisons myself first, to ensure that they will not hurt you, and that the effects of the medicines can work normally to improve your dragon body."

"Haha... so good."
