Zhan Lezhang had never encountered this kind of straightforward concern, he smiled, and his whole demeanor eased: "He didn't hurt me, Xiaoling don't have to worry about me, when the time is right, I'll bring him to see you. "

"Okay," Jiang Ling paused, "I've always been curious about who that person is. I thought I'd find out soon, but I didn't expect the movement to hide him so deeply."

"It's not convenient to reveal his identity for the time being. Aren't you going to see His Royal Highness? I'll give you a ride."

The two walked and chatted.

"I'm going back to Beijing in two days," Jiang Ling said, "I don't know when this turmoil will pass."

"Do you think the person who assassinated this time is the Floating World Sect?" With such a big incident, it is impossible to hide it. Zhan Lezhang has also heard about it.

Jiang Ling: "It should be. I don't know where their leader is hiding. It would be great if they can be caught quickly. Otherwise, every time they go, they will have to go through an assassination. It would be too much of a test."

Zhan Lezhang: "With the ability of His Royal Highness, I think we will be able to catch him soon."

Jiang Ling: "Does Le Zhang also think His Highness is very powerful?"

Zhan Lezhang: "His Royal Highness's ability is obvious to all. This is an undeniable fact, and I naturally feel the same way."

Jiang Ling chatted with him for a while, and when they arrived at Xiao Shengyun's place, they parted ways.

Xiao Shengyun was giving orders to his subordinates, when he saw Jiang Ling coming over, he hurriedly ended the topic.

"Why did Ling'er come here?"

"I came to look for His Highness, and His Highness's clinginess seems to have been passed on to me." Jiang Ling didn't know the reason for coming here, but he couldn't see Xiao Shengyun, which always left him feeling empty.

"Gu likes Ling'er clinging to Gu."

Xiao Shengyun has already given orders, and in his position, he doesn't need to do many things himself, as long as he is in charge of the overall situation.

He waved his hand, and the subordinate saluted and stepped back respectfully.

"Your Highness, has that person been caught? If we don't find it, shall we stay here for a few more days?" Jiang Ling quite likes it here, but if he can't do anything like now, he doesn't like it so much.

"No, with so many ministers here, I can't afford to delay."

Emperor Chongming also knew this, and was very anxious. He hoped that Xiao Shengyun would be quicker and catch him before he left.

The same goes for other ministers.

Everyone hopes to clear their suspicions as soon as possible.

The next afternoon, according to the clues, Xiao Shengyun found out the person who cooperated with the assassin, but when they went to arrest him, the person had already committed suicide.

He is a servant of the Lian family. He has been lurking in the Lian family for an unknown period of time. If it wasn't for this incident, he might not know when he would be exposed.

Emperor Chongming was full of anger, but he couldn't show it. He simply handed over the matter to the crown prince.

When the Lian family came here, they were beautiful, but when they returned, they were prisoners.

Such a gap is hardly acceptable to anyone.

But the target of the Floating World Sect is indeed a servant of the Lian family, or a servant of the second young master, who has come into contact with so many secrets of the Lian family over the years, it makes one's scalp tingle when one thinks about it carefully.

After that person was arrested, another thing that the second son of the Lian family did can't be hidden anymore.

The second son of the Lian family has a good relationship with Lianji. He sent a few servants to come to Wufu Mountain ahead of time. It is expected that wolves will enter the house.

Especially when he learned that the Second Young Master Lian did this to kill Lian Su, the Patriarch of the Lian family almost didn't mention it in one breath, and he had the heart to strangle this unfilial son to death.

At this time, the Patriarch of the Lian family can't care about what will happen to Lian's lawsuit, and keeping the family is the most important thing.

"This is too coincidental." Jiang Ling sighed when she learned the truth from Xiao Shengyun.

Second Young Master Lian probably didn't expect that his evil thoughts would bring such disasters to his family.

"Was that servant bought by the Floating World Sect or was he a member of the Floating World Sect?" Jiang Ling took a piece of snack and chewed it slowly.

"He's not from the Ukiyoshi sect, he was bribed just like that boy from the Zheng family." Xiao Shengyun handed Jiang Ling some water.

Jiang Ling took a few sips of his hand: "Does he know who the person he sent up the mountain is and what he wants to do?"

"He doesn't know." Xiao Shengyun put the empty cup aside.

"I also think he doesn't know. Otherwise, unless he is completely controlled by the Ukiyoshi Sect and has to do so, he should not commit such a great crime of killing the nine clans."

The people were caught, and it was time to return to Beijing. Emperor Chongming ordered to return.

Before they arrived in the capital, the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice had already imprisoned the Lian family. Before the news came back, the forces remaining in Beijing were discussing what happened to the Lian family.

"What did the Lian family do to be imprisoned suddenly?"

"The Lian family and the Lin family are related by marriage. No matter what happened, for the face of the Lin family and King Xuan, the people in the Ministry of Punishment shouldn't be so ruthless, unless..."

Unless, what the Lian family committed was so serious that the Lin family and King Xuan couldn't intervene.

After returning to Beijing, Emperor Chongming summoned the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

"Just a servant?" Emperor Chongming's face was gloomy.

"Yes." The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment replied with cupped hands.

"The Lian family didn't know anything about it?" Emperor Chongming didn't quite believe this result.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice said: "According to what has been found so far, the Lian family really doesn't know."

"Check again, I don't believe that a servant can have such a great ability." The Lian family and the Lin family are related by marriage. This time Lianji was promoted to balance the power of King Xuan and the crown prince. Emperor Chongming never expected that the Lian family Will give him such a big "surprise".

It's better to leave this matter to the prince from the beginning. The prince has never made a mistake in such a major matter.

Emperor Chongming was in a gloomy mood.

What he didn't tell outsiders was that with the relationship between the Lian family and the Lin family, he was more concerned about whether King Xuan knew about this matter.

The paranoia of an emperor was brought into full play by Emperor Chongming.

Xuanwang Mansion.

Several confidants gathered in the study.

"This time, for the prince, if he doesn't handle it properly, he may lose his sacred heart." A confidant said.

"How does the Lian family do things? Can such a big mistake be made?"

What happened this time was too unexpected for King Xuan's lineage. People who have been in the center of power for a long time have their minds twisted and turned. Assassinating the emperor is a felony for killing the nine clans. Although judging from the current results, it has nothing to do with King Xuan relationship, but I can't bear it. Emperor Chongming is a person who likes to think too much.

He would not feel that a servant could do this. He would doubt whether the servant was really bewitched by the Floating World Sect, or the master behind it was someone else.

When King Xuan brought Jiang Xu in, these people were still discussing the matter and discussing the best way to do it.

"My lord, Lord Jiang."

When the two walked in, their confidants stopped discussing and saluted them.

"This time, the king has his own plan, so you don't have to worry about it." With a few words to appease his confidants, King Xuan asked them to retreat.

In the end, only King Xuan and Jiang Xu remained.

"My lord, have you made up your mind?"

King Xuan walked behind the table and sat down: "Father's suspicion is not unreasonable, isn't it? But he will never find evidence, and he can only suffer in doubt day after day."

"Have those people been dealt with?" King Xuan quietly asked the table.

"Don't worry, my lord, it's all taken care of."

"In a few days, the vassal king will return to the capital, and the capital will be bustling again."

As King Xuan said, no matter how suspicious Emperor Chongming was, the result of his investigation was that this matter had nothing to do with King Xuan.

The Lian family was convicted of a felony. Since it was the family servants who did this, the Lian family did not actively participate or even know about it. These people were exempted from the death penalty and exile, but were deprived of their positions.

This is definitely not a good thing for the arrogant Lian family. They have offended too many people in Beijing. Once something happens, those who have been humiliated by them will return what they have suffered to them one by one. .

The matter of Lian's family sounded the alarm to Emperor Chongming, and also to the major powers in Beijing. Before the incident happened, no one would have thought that an insignificant servant could bring disaster to the family.

Without Emperor Chongming's order, the officials have already investigated whether any of the servants in the family have been infiltrated by the Ukishi Sect. Not to mention, they have indeed caught many people out.

These fruitful families are all afraid.

The news that Emperor Chongming secretly investigated the case of the prince's pulse reached Xiao Shengyun's ears.

He smiled: "Father is really, never disappoints."

Xiao Shengyun knew that such a day would come, and he had already made preparations. No matter how Emperor Chongming checked, he would not find any problems.

The first thing Jiang Ling did when she returned to the palace was to see Xiao Gungun.

After seeing each other for a few days, Xiao Gungun didn't feel strange to Jiang Ling, but became clingier instead.

Jiang Ling took out the roll that had been pushed into her arms, and weighed it: "It seems a little heavy."

Jiang Ling took a piece of tender bamboo and fed it.

Xiao Gungun hugged the bamboo and gnawed it, "click" and "click", and finally stopped making trouble with him.

With the coming of Emperor Chongming's birthday, the vassal kings also arrived in the capital one by one, and envoys from other small countries also gradually arrived. In order to welcome these people, the capital became more lively.

Emperor Chongming was rarely happy.

"Your Highness, according to the news from the spies, King Cheng secretly brought a lot of elites with him this time." The black-clothed dark guard quietly appeared in the hall.

Prince Cheng, the second prince, is on good terms with the seventh prince and has been favored by Concubine Li.

Jiang Ling was about to take Guozi's hand, he had an impression of this prince, because in the original book, for the sake of the seventh prince, he initiated a palace change, although it was quickly suppressed.

In the original book, the Seventh Prince completely withdrew from the competition because of this palace change. Now that the Seventh Prince is gone, will the same thing happen?

"Where are the others?" Xiao Shengyun didn't respond to the news.

"The other princes didn't make any changes. It's just that Prince Liu and the princess deviated from the original route and didn't move with the big army. The news came that they went to find inspiration with the princess."

"Looking for inspiration?"

"Didn't Ling'er like Mr. Taoyao's script? Princess Liu is Mr. Taoyao."

Jiang Ling was really shocked now. Mr. Taoyao's identity is a mystery. Someone once tried to spend a lot of money to ask Mr. Taoyao to come forward. Unfortunately, Mr. Taoyao didn't even look at that person. The person who wrote the storybook didn't even take himself seriously, so he ruthlessly wanted to teach others a lesson.

In the end, he didn't learn the lesson, but his own family suffered a great disaster, and those things he did were found out, and soon disappeared in Beijing.

Since then, no one dared to trouble Mr. Taoyao.

"Your Highness, do you think I can ask Princess Liu for an autograph?" Jiang Ling's voice couldn't hide his excitement.

In his original world, this is a personal signature!
