In the evening, Ye Zhaoling woke up and opened his eyes.

This time he didn't fall into a coma for too long, probably because yesterday's spiritual energy depletion could no longer be recovered in a single sleep, no matter how much he closed his spiritual breath and devoted himself to recuperating, it was all futile.

Sure enough, after waking up this time, his health was not good, and he looked sickly.

Rong Zheng received the news that Ye Zhaoling was awake early, and returned to the East Palace ahead of schedule.It's just that he didn't see the scene of "the beauty is ill and Xizi is sick" after returning to the palace.

Ye Zhaoling was wearing a half-worn T-shirt, sitting on the window sill and playing with the birds, causing Yan Tian's favorite bird to hide in the cage and refused to come out, screaming at him.

The little bird didn't cooperate, and after a while, Ye Zhaoling felt bored.Taking advantage of the bird's unpreparedness, he lightly poked the fluffy bird's belly, and scolded with a smile: "Little fool."

"Don't say such things in front of Xijun." When Rong Zheng entered the door, he just heard Ye Zhaoling's words: "The birds in the palace have dirty mouths, but they will be thrown to death."

"Your Highness is back." Hearing Rong Zheng's voice, Ye Zhaoling put aside his thoughts of teasing the bird for a while, put down the cage, and said, "It's quite early to get off work today."

Rong Zheng handed over the coat in his hand to the attendant, and first glanced at Ye Zhaoling's face.Although Ye Zhaoling's complexion is not good at the moment, he is more alive than yesterday.

On the small desk not far away, there was a table of small congee and food, and it seemed that a bite hadn't been touched.

Rong Zheng closed his eyes, came to sit down at the table, and asked, "Why, it doesn't suit your taste?"

Ye Zhaoling's life is not that particular, and he doesn't care about food and clothing. He always eats whatever he has, but today he just has a poor appetite.

He put the birdcage aside, got up and came to the table, picked up the porcelain bowl and took a few mouthfuls casually.

Since entering the door, Rong Zheng has been silently looking at him, and Ye Zhaoling noticed Rong Zheng's gaze.He reached out with a chopstick and put fried yam slices in the bowl, and started a random conversation: "I heard that the investigation team is already investigating the cause of the plane accident, do you have any idea?"

The attendant brought tea, and Rong Zheng took the gaiwan and took a sip: "The preliminary judgment is that the fuselage lost control due to the loosening of the tail rotor main shaft fixing bolt during the flight."

Ye Zhaoling seemed to accept this argument, he nodded clearly, and said, "So that's the reason."

Rong Zheng used the lid to gently skim off the foam on the tea water, and asked Ye Zhaoling, "What do you think about this?"

"It's impossible to make such a low-level mistake in the sightseeing helicopter that has been used for ten years in Dazhou Mountain on the outskirts of the city. The maintenance personnel of your royal family should be laid off." Ye Zhaoling said casually, his tone was neither painful nor itchy.

"Isn't it?" Rong Zheng agreed with Ye Zhaoling's point of view: "It's time to check it out."

This topic should have ended here, but Ye Zhaoling put down his chopsticks and asked Rong Zheng: "Your Highness, do you still remember what happened in the palace the night we first met in the bedroom?"

As soon as Ye Zhaoling said the words, he immediately realized that the title of his sentence was somewhat ambiguous, and what happened that night could be regarded as a "wonderful".He was about to make amends, Rong Zheng took the words naturally: "Do you think there is a connection between the two?"

On the night Ye Zhaoling met Rong Zheng, two snipers sneaked into the East Palace to assassinate the prince.

"I didn't know about all the shit going on in your deep palace compound." Ye Zhaoling would pretend to be confused with understanding, and he picked up the porcelain bowl again, as if concentrating on eating: "It's just random guessing."

Having said this, Rong Zheng took the initiative to mention a matter that everyone in the palace kept secret.

"Do you know why Emperor Mingde was assassinated back then?" Rong Zheng asked.

What Rong Zheng said was "assassination" instead of "accident", it can be seen that Rong Zheng already had his own judgment on the matter of Emperor Mingde's sudden death.

As soon as Ye Zhaoling stopped picking up vegetables, a Sixi meatball rolled onto the table and was cut off by him again with his chopsticks.

"Why?" Ye Zhaoling asked.

Rong Zheng said: "At that time, Emperor Mingde was taking the lead in revising the anti-monopoly law."

The purpose of Emperor Mingde's move is very clear, which is to stop the increasingly serious economic monopoly of the royal family.Not only that, he also promoted a lot of support policies overtly and secretly, supporting non-governmental small and medium-sized enterprises to compete with the royal group.

"Of course, this is only one aspect." Rong Zheng continued: "Later, my Uncle San Huang was implicated in a nasty sexual assault and homicide case and was sentenced to prison, and he is still serving his sentence to this day."

In the "Regulations on Preferential Treatment of the Clan" signed with the royal family at the beginning of the government's establishment, the royal family members had certain immunity from the law, and many members of the royal family acted recklessly because of this. Therefore, Emperor Mingde advocated the abolition of the regulations and heavy punishment according to law.

The internal relationship of the imperial family was intricate, and a series of actions of Emperor Mingde directly harmed the interests of various groups of the imperial family.He is determined to weaken the royal privileges, how can they tolerate such a person to continue to sit in that position.

Ye Zhaoling said: "As far as I know, the late emperor had an accident in his bedroom."

If Emperor Mingde really died of murder, it would be very difficult for people outside the palace to get his hands on him.

Rong Zheng said, "I know who did it."

"who is it?"

"Zhong Yu."

Rong Zheng's voice fell, and no one spoke for a long time.Both looked as usual, but the surrounding atmosphere suddenly fell into an inexplicable silence.

After a while, Ye Zhaoling spoke again: "What are you talking about to me? Knowing too many royal secrets is not a good thing. If you don't keep them all, you will be silenced one day."

"Then it's better to talk about something else." Rong Zheng didn't continue this topic, he poured a bowl of soup for Ye Zhaoling's noodles himself: "We just talked about so many reasons for the distress, why don't we talk about how we saved ourselves from the danger at that time?" .”

Ye Zhaoling looked at the boiled milky white soup in the bowl, and said: "The maintenance personnel employed by the court are not very good, but the pilots are very capable. Thanks to him, otherwise you and I may have to continue our relationship underground gone."

"You're right, you should be well rewarded." A faint smile appeared on Rong Zheng's face: "Is it just because of that?"

"Otherwise?" Ye Zhaoling wasn't sure if Rong Zheng saw anything at that time, but judging from his attitude, the prince was already suspicious.

However, Ye Zhaoling knew how to dispel the prince's doubts. He asked back: "In His Highness's view, apart from the pilot, is there any way to prevent the plane from crashing with just the few people in our cabin?"

Rong Zheng was questioned by Ye Zhaoling. Under the circumstances at that time, no matter how many tricks Ye Zhaoling used, it was impossible to change the result by manpower.

**

On the morning of the third day, there was a new development in the case of Fu Yiwen.The police extracted a drug ingredient that could cause coma from Fu Yiwen's nails.

This ingredient is very common in antidepressant drugs. Fu Yiwen has a history of depression, so it is reasonable to extract this drug from his nails.But this also provides another possibility - Fu Yiwen may have been artificially hanged to death in a poisoned coma, and then faked the illusion of hanging himself.

As to whether there is such a possibility, we have to wait for the further autopsy report of the forensic doctor.

In the past few days when Rong Zheng was so busy that he couldn't see the end, Ye Zhaoling was detained by Rong Zheng in the palace for three days and forced to recuperate. I made an excuse to leave the palace.

Rong Zheng is going to leave for S City early tomorrow morning to attend official business. Ye Zhaoling was supposed to go with Rong Zheng for this event in S City, but Ye Zhaoling said that his body has not fully recovered and he cannot go with him.

Ye Zhaoling couldn't go to S city due to illness, but left the palace as if nothing happened.Rong Zheng didn't expose him, but just told him to leave early and return early.

After Ye Zhaoling left, Rong Zheng also left for Aurora Technology.

Fu Yiwen is gone, the crown prince relies heavily on Wei Ran, and the senior management of the group are arguing over this matter.After all, the chief engineer of the R&D center is a favorite, and everyone wants to put their own person in that position.Judging from the prince's attitude, it has the meaning of cultivating Wei Ran as Fu Yiwen's successor.

Rong Zheng knew that Wei Ran's qualifications were too young to convince the public, so he had no plans to promote Wei Ran as chief engineer so soon.But now that the project has entered a critical stage, Wei Ran is the one who wants to make the project go smoothly.

Rong Zheng thought, if Fu Yiwen was still there, he would definitely agree with his decision.

Rong Zheng invited Wei Ran to this meeting today, but Wei Ran refused to show up because of his busy schedule.Without Wei Ran as the main character, all those with ulterior motives have room to play freely. A meeting was held from evening to night without any specific regulations.

The conference table in the conference room was more than ten meters long. Rong Zheng sat at one end of the table, and the company leaders sat at the other end.Flying a pen in his hand, he watched coldly a group of people over fifty years old arguing about the position of the chief engineer.

Just when the old men were blushing and neck thick from arguing, Yan Tian opened the door and walked in, whispering a few words in Rong Zheng's ear.

"Missing?" The rapidly spinning pen in Rong Zheng's hand stopped suddenly: "What does it mean to be missing?"

Yan Tian whispered: "Master Hou lost contact with the palace not long after he left the palace."

Rong Zheng asked, "Where are the people around him?"

Yan Tian shook his head and said, "I can't get in touch for the time being."

Rong Zheng: "Have you gone to Lingjing Media to look for it?"

Yan Tian replied: "Miss Li Qiuqiu said that Master Hou has never been to Lingjing Media, and they are also trying to contact him. We checked the surveillance along the way, and Master Hou's car finally disappeared after it appeared on Jingshi Road. "

Ye Zhaoling had a precedent of losing contact suddenly before, and he would be back in a while, Rong Zheng knew that he should not overreact.

However, it has been an eventful season recently, and the two were suspected of being assassinated a few days ago. Ye Zhaoling's identity is sensitive and he may be in danger at any time.

He slapped the pen in his hand on the table with a "snap", and ordered in a cold voice: "Send more people to expand the search area, and keep quiet for now."

The expression on Rong Zheng's face was very serious, which made Yan Tian feel that the matter had become serious.He nodded quickly and said, "Yes."

"Wait a minute." Yan Tian was ordered to go out when Rong Zheng called him back: "Ask Suzaku to send a small team over, I'll go out and see for myself."
