As long as what Caiyu said is true, even if Chu Hui can't find the person who redeemed Ling Yan, with her father's suspicion, she can pull Ling Yan down.It's just that, the person behind the scenes can escape, which is not what Chu Hui wants to see, so she can't startle the snake before she finds out the person behind the scene.

After Yunwan sobered up, the first thing she saw Chu Hui was to ask, "Did she say it?"

"Ling Yan was redeemed by someone more than ten years ago, which means that she has only been raised in Fengyue Tower for so many years. Not many people know about it. Because Caiyu has been in Fengyue Tower for a long time, so I know a little bit." Chu Hui nodded and answered her, "Although the person who ransomed Ling Yan has not been found out yet, Ruan Peihan cannot get rid of it."

"More than ten years ago?" Yunwan was puzzled, "Ling Yan was just a milk doll more than ten years ago, how did Ruan Peihan know that such a milk doll would definitely be favored by the emperor in the future? He just put all his money on it." It fell on a milk doll?"

"...You are right." Chu Hui said in silence for a while.There are many ministers in the court who send beauties of the right age from their families to the palace in order to have people who can speak in the harem. Lin Yulang and Lin Yuwen are two good examples.If Ruan Peihan wanted to choose a beauty from the brothel, it would be fine, but he put all his treasures on Ling Yan alone, wouldn't it be too risky?What if the father hadn't been attracted to Fengyue Tower by them, or didn't have a crush on Ling Yan, what should they do?

Yunwan was distracted again and said: "Unless Ruan Peihan is sure, as long as the emperor sees Ling Yan, he will definitely like her." But Ruan Peihan is not a roundworm in the emperor's stomach, how can he be sure that the emperor will like Ling Yan.

"When you put it this way, I feel that Ling Yan's entry into the palace is a big conspiracy, but I don't know what Ruan Peihan's purpose is. To find out about this matter, we must first know why the father likes Ling Yan " Chu Hui's eyes darkened, "But it's not difficult to know, Ruan Peihan must know, let's ask him."

"Why would he say it if you asked him directly?" Ruan Peihan was not stupid, if he confessed to such a thing, it would be a serious crime of beheading.

Chu Hui smiled and said, "That depends on who asked him and how he asked him!"

"Princess means—"

"Extreme times are extraordinary means. Besides, this time, Ruan Peihan and Chu Sixian joined forces to provoke us. What I did was just retaliate in the same way as others."

......

Ruan Peihan has been enjoying himself recently, the most favored lady in the harem is his goddaughter, the prosperous eldest prince is his nephew, and even his son has been promoted by the emperor to praise him for his outstanding achievements. ...It was getting dark, he was holding the birdcage alone, and was walking towards the mansion while whistling, wishing he could feel the wind while walking.

Suddenly a black shadow flashed past, Ruan Peihan felt that his eyes were completely dark, he couldn't even scream in the future, and passed out directly.Seeing that he was dizzy, Hei Ying tied his hands worriedly, covered his eyes with a black cloth, and then lifted him over the wall and left.

Heiying took Ruan Peihan to a dilapidated temple outside the capital city. Judging by the accumulation of dust here, he knew that people did not often come to offer offerings, but he still found some water from the water purification bottle in front of the Bodhisattva and poured it directly Ruan Peihan woke up.

"Wh... who is it?" Ruan Peihan opened his eyes, feeling sore all over, thinking that he was hijacked by villains, so he said sternly.

Heiying didn't feel that he needed to conceal his identity, so he took off his mask directly, and it was the shadow beside Chu Hui.However, Ruan Peihan didn't know the hidden guards beside Chu Hui. Shadow smiled and said, "I've been honest with Lord Ruan, and Lord Ruan will answer my questions in a while. This is a courtesy."

"What do you want to do?" Ruan Peihan asked in surprise and fear. He was surprised that the shadow took off the mask directly, and he was afraid that he didn't know who the person in front of him was, and he didn't even want to know who hurt him. possible.

Shadow pushed Ruan Peihan to the ground, pulled out a dagger from his boots, and patted it in his hand: "Don't worry, Lord Ruan, I won't do anything to Lord Ruan, as long as you answer my questions carefully."

"What do you want to ask?" Ruan Peihan was worthy of being an old fox. He neither said to answer nor directly said that he would not answer. He planned to think carefully after listening to the question.

Shadow doesn't have so many tricks, he always suppresses the opponent with absolute strength, even though Ruan Peihan is playing tricks, if he eats a knife for a while, he will naturally tell the truth. "Then I'll ask, Master Ruan, what is your relationship with Concubine Rong who has just entered the palace?"

"Are you someone sent by the palace?" Ruan Peihan didn't expect this person to be related to Ling Yan, how could it be possible?He has been planning about Ling Yan for more than ten years, and there can be no flaws. He even deceived the emperor. Who is doubting him?

Shadow pulled out the dagger and directly poked a bloody hole in Ruan Peihan's body.

"Ah—" Ruan Peihan never expected that Shadow would do this to him suddenly, and he almost lost his voice in pain for a moment.

But Ying Ying said with a smile: "Master Ruan, as I said, you should answer my question properly, and you should be more careful when answering next time. Tell me, what is your relationship with Concubine Rong?"

"I...I..." Ruan Peihan was already in pain, and he was unwilling to answer these questions, so I couldn't figure out why after a long time.

Shadow didn't have much patience, he waited for a while, raised the dagger again, and said, "Master Ruan had better answer quickly, I can wait, but this knife can't wait."

Seeing that the knife was about to goug out another hole in his body, Ruan Peihan's face paled in fright, and he hurriedly said, "I say, I say! Concubine Rong, is she my goddaughter?"

"Daughter? The Ruan family can be considered a wealthy family. How could your goddaughter be reduced to Fengyuelou? Did Master Ruan play me for a fool?"

"Naturally not, naturally not." Ruan Peihan repeatedly denied in order to avoid the pain of flesh and blood, "It's just that Ling Yan's background is low, and she is a beauty I plan to dedicate to the emperor, so it is not easy to stay in the mansion and raise her. That's why I took her Sent to Fengyue Tower."

"A beauty dedicated to the emperor? How do you know that the emperor will fall in love with her?" Yin Ying asked the questions Chu Hui asked one by one.

Even if Ruan Peihan continued to kill, he also knew that his secret could not be revealed, but if he didn't tell, the shadow would cut his flesh with a knife, which was really unbearable, so he had to think of a reason that didn't sound very real: "Ten Years ago, I met Ling Yan who was begging on the street. She was born in Yuxue at that time, and she looked like a beauty. At that time, the lady sent by the Ruan family to the palace was seriously ill. I had the mentality of giving it a try. That’s why I took this child home, thinking that I can gamble in the future.”

"Hahaha, Yuxue is cute?" Yingying suddenly raised his head and laughed, "It seems that Master Ruan will not shed tears when he sees the coffin. Come out Yuxue is cute?" Who hasn't seen little beggars begging inside and outside the capital?

Seeing that the shadow was about to attack again, Ruan Peihan was anxious: "The strong man spares his life, I really dare not deceive the strong man."

"Master Ruan, I didn't intend to kill you, I just took people's money. If you don't tell the truth, this knife doesn't have eyes." Shadow pressed the blade of the dagger tightly to Ruan Peihan's face, Threatening him, "Master Ruan has been immersed in officialdom for so many years, so he must know the punishment of death by a thousand swords? Do you want to try it, is the sharp-edged scimitar used by a thousand swords or my dagger more powerful?" sharp?"

No matter how Ruan Peihan looked at Yingying's expression, he felt that he was not talking about fakes. If he was not happy, he might really cut himself into pieces, but this ruined temple is deserted, and even if he shouted his throat, there would be no one. will come to rescue him.He had already started to tremble all over, and after a while, a puddle of yellow sewage flowed out from his lower body, and the majestic uncle of the country was frightened to the point of shit.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I thought Mr. Ruan was not afraid of anything because of his copper skin and iron bones?" Shadow looked at the sewage under him, showing a contemptuous expression, "Since your lord is afraid, you should say it obediently."

After Ruan Peihan was frightened, he finally didn't dare to lie anymore, and told the truth: "Because Ling Yan's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to the person the emperor likes, I made up my mind to take her into my pocket, and then sent her to Fengyue Tower Cultivate her well, just so that she can say a few good words for me in front of the emperor in the future, and keep the wealth and glory of the Ruan family."

It was really as the princess guessed, Ying Ying was overjoyed, and asked again: "Which empress in the palace is the person the emperor likes?"

"This..." Ruan Peihan was heartbroken, since he was surprised to say so much, he didn't care to say it all, so he was hurt a few times, "The person the emperor likes is not any empress in the harem, It's Princess Anxiang."

"Princess An Xiang? Who is this? Where is the name of this princess in the palace?" Shadow frowned slightly, he had never heard of such a name.

"Princess Anxiang is the righteous daughter of the late emperor. She was raised in the palace since she was a child, and she is very much loved. It was only more than ten years ago that Princess Anxiang offended Longyan, and was removed from the jade book by the emperor, and ordered the palace No one inside or outside is allowed to mention the existence of Princess Anxiang." Ruan Peihan said while looking at Yingying's face, "But in fact this is not the case, but the current emperor fell in love with Princess Anxiang, and did not dare to risk the power of the world. Buwei forced the eldest princess to marry, so he tried every means to remove her name and imprison her in the harem."

"..." After hearing this, Ying Ying was silent for a long time, "Since the emperor concealed this matter, how did you know about it? Who else knows about this matter except you?"

"Concubine Ruan discovered this by accident. She only told me about it, and even His Highness the First Prince didn't know about it. This matter is against the emperor. You'd better advise your master not to investigate this matter lightly. Once the emperor finds out, I will die, and you will have to be buried with me!" At the end, Ruan Peihan uttered a few more harsh words, asking when had he ever been wronged like this, threatened and mutilated like this.

"Thank you Lord Ruan for reminding this, but not everyone in this world is as stupid as Lord Ruan." Shadow threw down a jade bottle and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't stay and give medicine to Lord Ruan."
