C71 (1/2)

It was a windy night, and the moon hung in the sky like a dim disk. In the small forest outside the Residence of Regent, a gust of autumn wind blew. Four black figures flashed as they all knelt behind the middle-aged man with his hands behind his back. ”Disciples greet Master!”

”Get up!” A familiar yet good-natured face was reflected in his eyes. This person was the master of the Regent, King Yu Ling Jing and steward of his household, Nangong Yu. ”Wind and lightning, how is the investigation I had you all investigate?”

”Reporting to Master! ”I've found out that the person who assassinated the princess a few days ago had something to do with the crown prince?” The one who spoke was the head of the four guards, the Wind Guard.

”Imperial Cold Wind? It really has something to do with him! ” Twenty years ago, his Nangong family was destroyed by Yu Hanfeng's grandfather, the Shangguan family. A few months ago, the Qi family was massacred by the crown prince, and a few days ago, the crown prince sent someone to assassinate Royal Concubine Qi County. This series of blood cases had all been linked together because of the Imperial Palace's battle. Then why did the Crown Prince want to assassinate her? ”

”This?” Disciples have not been investigated! ” This time, the one who spoke was Lei Bao.

”It must be related to the Qi family, right?” The Wind Guard cupped his fists and said indifferently.

”Qi family?” Butler replied. Speaking of the Qi Family, butler Nangong Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of sympathy. The Qi family and his Nangong family had a similar experience. Since they were aristocratic families of Jianghu, they had accidentally caused their families to be exterminated because they had been involved in the battle for the palace. The wangfei's surname was Qi, then what kind of relationship did she have with the Qi family? Thinking of this, the butler quickly turned to the four men in black and viciously said, ”Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning!”

”Disciple is here!”

”Investigate the relationship between the wangfei and the Qi family immediately!”

”Yes sir!” Before the four of them finished speaking, they had already disappeared into the boundless darkness with a glare of their feet. In the place where they had just stood, there were some leaves that had fallen from the autumn wind, as if they had never come here before.

Fallen leaves fell onto the steward's grey hair. The steward was still standing there like a soldier. Princess Hua-Yang had been assassinated for no reason. She had saved a woman her husband had kidnapped and sold off on the day she was assassinated, and she had even brought this woman back to the residence? Was this a coincidence? The butler looked into the distance with his pitch-black eyes and said slowly, ”Next, the Royal Mansion will be bustling with noise and excitement!”

Early in the morning, everything was quiet. The first rays of dawn lit up the sky, and the darkness was about to fade. The dawn light slowly woke up the sleeping creatures.

Yu Ling Jing put on his court uniform, kissed the smiling Qi Wan County in his sleep, and walked out of the room. If the sky was peaceful and the land was calm, then Yours Truly would like to be an idle person to accompany his beloved to stroll by the lake and watch the rising sun. If the sun was setting, wouldn't it be great if we traveled together to the great rivers and mountains to taste the delicacies everywhere? When he thought of this, Yu Ling Jing's lips unconsciously curled up into a faint smile.

When Yu Lingjing reached the palace gates, she was stopped by a familiar and annoying voice, ”Royal Uncle, please wait!” The one who spoke was the crown prince, Yu Ling Jing, who was wearing a yellow Six Dragons Silk Robe. Yu Ling Jing didn't pay him any attention as he continued walking. The corner of the crown prince's mouth tilted to one side as he quickly caught up to Yu Ling Jing, walking right next to him. He looked at Yu Ling Jing and sneered: ”Royal uncle, are you looking good? I presume that Imperial Aunt is unharmed? ”

”Is Imperial Aunt safe?” The other meaning of this sentence was that Qi'er County was unwell? Hearing the words about Qi Wan County, Yu Ling Jing immediately stopped, his cold eyes staring at Yu Feng. ”What do you mean?” Yu Lingjing really didn't understand what Yu Lingfeng meant, was there something wrong with Qi Wan?

”Maybe! Your Imperial Uncle had to work hard for the country and might have neglected your Imperial Aunt, but you actually didn't even know that your Imperial Aunt was assassinated a few days ago? ” Yu Hanfeng said with a mocking expression. From his eyes, it could be seen that he was very proud of himself. That's right, isn't your Regent, Yu Lingjing, also known as the War God? No matter how heroic and invincible you are on the battlefield, you can't even protect a woman at home? If word of this got out, wouldn't he be laughed to death?

Yu Ling Jing grabbed onto Yu Feng's collar, and with bloodthirsty eyes, he wished he could skin Yu Feng alive. ”This King warns you!” If you have the ability, come at This King. Don't use women as weapons! ”

”It seems royal uncle and his wife have a deep affection for each other?” I'm so jealous! ” Yu Hanfeng pretended to be envious as he said, ”Imperial Uncle was with Imperial Aunt every day, but didn't Imperial Aunt tell you? From the looks of it, Imperial Aunt also doesn't seem like a couple with deep feelings for each other? ”

That's right, she didn't even tell me about the assassination attempt on my wife. Just what is my position in her heart? Yu Ling Jing suddenly felt a sense of loss, and slowly let go of Yu Feng. He stood there blankly, but Yu Ling Jing just laughed loudly and left.

At the same time, when Qi Wan had just gotten up and washed up, Liu Qi ran over with a happy face. ”Senior Master!” A guest is coming! ”

”Guest?” ”Who is it?” Senior sister was not here, she did not have any other friends in the capital besides the official and Ruan Qingyan. However, there was no need to notify the officials every time he came. As for Qing Yan? Was it impossible for her to come to the Residence of Regent on her own accord? Who could it be?

”It's a handsome guy that's even more handsome than Prince!” Liu Qi's smiling face was quite suspicious.
