monopolize my master

Chapter 63 Emerging clues

Chapter 63 is beginning to emerge

The interrogation naturally ended without a problem.

Ling Xiao walked out of the dungeon in frustration. He looked up at the sun and felt dizzy.

He ordered people to lay down layers of ambushes near the sky prison, hoping that someone would reveal clues when someone came to deal with the eunuch.In addition, Ling Xiao has nothing to do with this kind of criminal who refuses to eat hard.

Is it better to take the initiative to attack than to search for it in the open?

Ling Xiao looked at the unhealed wounds on his body, and gave up the idea of ​​going to Xuanji Pavilion to find out.Going forward rashly now will not only scare the snake, but it will be even more difficult to guarantee that he can escape unscathed.The loss outweighs the gain.

Lingfu.

The Ling Mansion, which was temporarily abandoned for a period of time because of the planning of the mutiny some time ago, has regained its former vitality.It can even be said that it is more magnificent and prosperous than before.Ling Xiao was a little surprised, but went straight in.

"Are you back? Are you all right?"

Seeing Ling Xiao coming, the scholar who was helping to repair the courtyard rushed up to greet him and asked concerned, "It's only been a few days, and you start walking around? Be careful not to be seen by the emperor, who will reprimand you again."

Ling Xiao was stunned for a while before he remembered who the emperor was referring to in the scholar's mouth. He chuckled lightly and patted the scholar on the shoulder.

"I'm fine, but it will take some time to fully heal the wound. Speaking of which, what are you doing here?"

"At the emperor's order, I'm here to repair your yard." The scholar shrugged and said sourly, "I'm in a hurry to appease you."

"Don't be like this." Ling Xiao chuckled, "Brother Guan, don't worry."

"Just kidding, it doesn't matter. It's just that I'm quite confused about something, and I want to ask you face to face." The scholar paused, and suddenly said seriously, "Why did His Royal Highness suddenly decide to succeed?"

As if he didn't expect him to ask such a question, Ling Xiao was taken aback, "The regent has no intention of taking the throne, and Xiao Huang has no choice but to."

"I also know the character of the regent, but did you hear the people's evaluation of the new emperor on the way you came?" The scholar frowned, "The reputation does not seem to be very good."

"I came here on horseback, so I didn't pay attention to those." Ling Xiao's heart tightened for no reason, "Then, what did they say?"

"The mutiny caused criticism. The cause of the late emperor's death was unknown. King Jinghe held the late emperor's edict but did not succeed. The crown prince ascended the throne and the regent assisted. Some new policies were promulgated today, and the approach was a bit biased. The people talked about it endlessly, and people with ulterior motives took the opportunity to stir up trouble, so...the new emperor's reputation is not good." The scholar hesitated, "Ling Xiao, what are you doing? watch?"

"The promulgation of the new policy naturally has its own advantages and disadvantages. I have also heard about the new policy promulgated by the emperor. It is natural for them to be resentful and indignant when it touches the interests of some big households. Yes, it's a problem left over from the previous dynasty." A gleam of anger flashed across Ling Xiao's eyes, "Speaking of which, all of this is the late emperor's fault."

The scholar nodded, and didn't continue the topic. He patted Ling Xiao's shoulder, "It's almost here, do you want to have some dinner? I'm a little hungry."

"Yeah. It's time to reward people who have made great achievements." Ling Xiao also became interested. "The Mingyuan Restaurant in Donghui City is very delicious. I have always wanted to take Brother Guan to try it." Come, the two got on their horses and galloped towards the restaurant.

The two of them didn't notice that not long after they left, a dangerous aura quietly filled the entire Ling Mansion.

Mingyuan Restaurant was bustling with people, as if there was a fight.The two looked at each other, then hurriedly got off their horses and went forward to find out.

"What happened?" Ling Xiao stepped forward to ask.

"The Zhufu faction and the Zhuhe faction are quarreling." A commoner glanced at Ling Xiao, and continued to focus on the place of the quarrel.

"The master? The master?" Ling Xiao frowned puzzled, "What is that?"

"The new emperor, everyone has a different opinion... The advocates believe that they should revolt, and the advocates believe that the people should write a letter to the regent and ask for the abolition of the emperor. The two have been arguing endlessly." The commoner replied, " What do you think?"

"What? Tell me clearly!" Hearing this, Ling Xiao grabbed the man by the collar and said furiously, "The new emperor has only been enthroned for a few days, and you're just talking nonsense and making trouble here, do you still have eyes? Wang Fa!"

"What does a rich man like you know?" The man was picked up by Ling Xiao, and he glared at Ling Xiao fiercely, "It's strange that the first emperor passed away, but King Jinghe abdicated as regent with a will in hand, and the new emperor ascended the throne at the age of eight, killing his father Uncle, how can the people of Dayin tolerate such an unkind and unrighteous king!"

"What do you know!"

The burning anger burned out the last bit of Ling Xiao's rationality, he tightened the collar of the man in front of him, and said angrily, "You don't know anything, who gave you the courage to speak nonsense here!"

"Ling Xiao, calm down first." Seeing this, the scholar hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, "Don't get angry, we'll talk about it later when we have something to do."

"...I see." Ling Xiao closed his eyes, let out a heavy breath, then pushed aside the crowd, and walked to the front of the crowd.The cold and sharp eyes immediately quieted down the surrounding people.

"What are you doing here? Didn't you see that we were discussing?" Seeing this, one of the chief executives glared at Ling Xiao.

"To shut up."

Ling Xiao didn't pay attention to him anymore, he stood quietly in the middle of the crowd, the icy aura around him seemed to swallow everything up.

"The new emperor has only been on the throne for a few days, and all the new policies that benefit the country and the people are promulgated. In order to fully implement the new policies, the emperor has been running around for several days to ask for advice, and he has not underestimated the sloppy management attitude. The emperor will not be allowed to issue decrees that will harm the interests of the people of Liming." Ling Xiao glanced at the troubled crowd, "What dissatisfaction do you have with the regent or the emperor?"

Everyone was dumbfounded.However, there was a slight disdainful voice from the crowd.

"I know what you are dissatisfied with. I don't want to explain and I don't think it is necessary to explain. The explanation is an insult to the reputation of His Majesty and the Regent." Ling Xiao said coldly, "The new emperor ascends the throne, and everything is waiting to be done. You Don’t be ungrateful, if you don’t like it, that’s all. When the New Deal really takes effect and gives you blessings, if you can continue to maintain this attitude, I, Ling, have nothing to say. But I hope you can really obey your conscience. Don’t Some people who are not clear-headed can slander right and wrong and stand on the wrong side. After all, everyone is a citizen of Dayin."

"You said it lightly." A questioning voice came from the crowd, "The new policy is extremely risky. If we suffer losses according to the new policy, can you afford it?"

The voice of questioning became louder and louder, and the crowd rushed forward, and began to criticize and abuse Ling Xiao endlessly, seeming to vent all their complaints about the new emperor and their own dissatisfaction on Ling Xiao.Ling Xiao tried several times to explain something, but was suppressed by the angry people.Seeing that the situation was not good, the scholar hurriedly explained while pulling Ling Xiao and rushing out of the crowd.

"Let me go!" Ling Xiao suddenly threw the scholar away, "Why did you pull me out? They obviously misunderstood the New Deal, and Xiao Huang has never done such a thing before!"

"They won't listen to your explanation now." The scholar said anxiously, "Don't get on your nerves, get on your horse quickly, leaving here is the most important thing."

After all, Ling Xiao couldn't help but talk, so he dragged Ling Xiao onto the horse half-dragging, and ran out of the city without any explanation. The vicious words of the people still came from behind him. Ling Xiao sat on the horseback in a daze, It feels like there is a blank in my mind.

How could it suddenly become like this?Public opinion is so angry?

He really wanted to rush back and tell those people who were dazzled by anger that this was not Su Huang's original intention.That child has never done anything against the laws of heaven and conscience.But the horse kept running forward, and the voices of the people did not stop at all because of the distance.

"Has... reached this point?" Ling Xiao muttered to himself, as if he had lost his soul, "I can't help him with anything."

"This is not what you should think about." The scholar's voice came from the front faintly, and it was a little unreal because the speed was too fast, "He should be prepared to deal with all this."

"No, I think there must be something strange about this matter." Ling Xiao frowned, thinking, "When did it become such a common thing to openly talk about the royal family's private affairs? Also, why did the common people respond to the mutiny? So well-informed? There must be people with ulterior motives instigating the masses, causing a state of turmoil. Coupled with the launch of the New Deal at this time, they feel that Su Huang is a sinister villain with ulterior motives."

The scholar sighed, "Then what do you want to do?"

"Find the person who spread the rumors..." Ling Xiao paused, knowing that this was not an easy idea, so he didn't continue.

The scholar stopped his horse and turned to look at Ling Xiao, "Looking for a needle in a haystack. If I were the one who spread rumors and caused trouble, I must have made a perfect plan. It would be a waste of time for you to investigate."

"...You're right." A trace of doubt suddenly flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, "Perhaps, I should go to the palace and ask the regent. For some things, it's better to ask him face to face."

The scholar didn't seem to notice Ling Xiao's strangeness, and nodded, "Take a break first, the situation in Donghui City is too complicated, maybe it's better for the regent to come forward."

"Scholar, I suddenly have a question." Ling Xiao suddenly said seriously, "Did you notice anything unusual when you dealt with the remnants of the queen on the day of the mutiny?"

"No." The scholar thought for a while, "The Queen's remnant party has no intention of fighting, and surrendered after a while. We have not suffered any losses... Do you think that the riot is still related to the Queen?"

"Who knows?" Ling Xiao smiled slightly on his lips, but his eyes were cold, "If I were to find out who is behind the scenes and manipulating all this, I would definitely not let him go lightly."

The scholar nodded in agreement.

Inexplicable dark clouds quietly enveloped Donghui City again.It's just that what I have to face this time may not be as simple as a royal family.

It is the whole world.
