This is Chen Yuan's sound transmission, and immediately after that, one after another, the lights in the Tianshu space flicker and light up.

"well done!"

Li Suqing replied.

"Yes, we did not misread you."

Chu Changfeng agreed.

It wasn't until Chen Yuan found the place where Senior Mo Luo was suppressed that they breathed a sigh of relief. If they couldn't find it, even if they directed all the eyes of the court masters to other places, it would still be of no use. It's just death in vain.

But now that they have found it, some of their arrangements can be finished quickly, and they must be foolproof.

"Where?"

Jiang He's voice was still cold.

"Lenggong."

Chen Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Lenggong?"

"It's here."

"Now that you know the place, things will be easier to handle later."

Then, several people said something about the grand ceremony of worshiping the ancestors in the book of heaven, with a very dignified tone.

"Chen Yuan, we will entrust you to rescue Senior Mo Luo this time."

"Everything is careful."

"Be careful……"

A series of dignified voices came out from the heavenly book, the tone was very firm, Chen Yuan was a little silent for a while, the court worshiped the ancestors, there were countless strong men, he could imagine how dangerous it was.

Even though these Taoist masters are very powerful, they are still very dangerous. It is very likely that they will risk their lives to buy him more time.

And once they showed up, it was difficult to leave...

But these people are still very determined.

He has never met that senior Moro, and he doesn't know what kindness he has to them, or how much charm he has, so that these temporary heroes will rescue him at any cost...

"I'll try my best."

Chen Yuan replied solemnly.

Not to mention that Dao Shrine has helped him many times, and now it's time for him to repay the debt. Just to trace his own background, he cannot do without the help of this senior Moro.

Although it will take some risks, it must be done.

They each talked about some things, and this discussion was considered to be over.

And Chen Yuan also put away the Heavenly Book, and fell into practice again.

In front of these people, Shidan's cultivation base was still a little too weak, so weak that they couldn't even regard Chen Yuan as the main force, and only entrusted him with the important task of rescuing Mo Luo.

……

……

After a night of nothing to say, Chen Yuan opened his eyes early again. After eating in the mansion, he did not delay too much, and went to inspect the East Imperial City Division according to the usual track.

The ancestor worship ceremony is approaching, it is stupid to be different, the best thing is to be the same as usual, and because this event is coming, it can be keenly noticed that the imperial city seems to have been mobilized.

Just to prepare for this grand ceremony.

The three-year ancestor worship ceremony is not uncommon. It has happened dozens of times in previous years, so most people have not connected this event with other things.

The state of mind is very peaceful.

Of course, that doesn't mean they don't pay attention.

Perhaps in the eyes of those important court officials, this matter is just going through the motions, but for ordinary officials, if there is a slight mistake,

It's a big deal to lose your head.

After staying in the Eastern Imperial City Division for a while, before Chen Yuan could do other things, Jingtai's oral order came again, summoning him to the Imperial Study Room for an audience.

He knew that if nothing else happened, it should be about Concubine Shu's death.

But unexpectedly, Jingtai seemed to be in a hurry.

Before Chen Yuan was unwilling to take the initiative to report, he was waiting for Jingtai's summons, and then covered it up. He thought that Jingtai might bring up this matter after the ancestor worship ceremony.

It was completely unexpected that the other party would hurry up and urge him only on the second day.

Could it be...

Jingtai really doesn't know?

He felt that should not be the case.

With all kinds of thoughts in his heart, Chen Yuan came to the imperial study room again. After reporting, he saw Jingtai and Cao Zhengxian, almost the same as yesterday.

Jingtai was still fiddling with something indifferently, while Cao Zhengxian waited on him.

"Snapped."

Hearing the voice of Chen Yuan coming, Jingtai put down the paintbrush in his hand, raised his head and stared at Chen Yuan.

"Weichen see Your Majesty."

Chen Yuan bowed and said.

"Flat body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chen Yuan raised his head calmly.

Jingtai asked casually: "I heard from people in the palace that Chen Aiqing went back very late yesterday, and she didn't go to the harem again today. Did you find something?"

Chen Yuan's eyes flickered, and he said quickly:

"Return to Your Majesty, I did find out some things."

"Tell me..."

"This minister thinks that Concubine Shu's falling into the water should be an accident."

Jingtai frowned:

"Accident? Is this your answer?"

"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded respectfully, and then said:

"Concubine Shu often watches the moon in the attic, and the maids are not allowed to follow. The starry sky was dark on the day of falling into the water. Perhaps it was too dark at night, and she accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the water.

As for the two palace maids...they had been ordered by Concubine Shu before, not to go up to the attic rashly and disturb their elegance, this minister infers that this is why,

Only then did Concubine Shu fall into the water and die. "

"Any more?"

Jingtai asked indifferently.

From these cryptic words given by Chen Yuan, it has been shown that Concubine Shu died in the process of stealing someone, and this matter has been linked for a long time.

However, it seems that he is not satisfied.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yuan knew that he had to reveal something to Jingtai, otherwise, in his eyes, he was still a little ineffective, and immediately said:

"Weichen also smelled a faint smell of dragon fragrance ink on the corpse of Concubine Shu, but Concubine Shu has always been quite proficient in calligraphy and painting, so there is nothing unusual about this matter."

Speaking of this, Chen Yuan basically gave out most of the clues, pointing directly at the princes in the palace, and if he went on, he could only reveal Sima Ke.

He estimated that Jingtai's brain was enough to infer some things.

Jingtai stared at Chen Yuan very calmly, the atmosphere in the imperial study room seemed to be completely frozen, and the huge pressure enveloped Chen Yuan invisible in an instant.

If it weren't for him being a bit of a city, he would be flustered just under this pressure, and then he would completely tell the whole thing, but like that,

I am afraid that Jingtai will not only vent his anger on him, but also leak the ban on the badge.

What does a foreign minister want to do by threatening the noble concubine to get a ban on free access to the harem?

If you think about it casually, you know that Chen Yuan's mind is not right.

It wasn't that Chen Yuan was deliberately protecting Sima Ke, he actually wanted to kill this guy, but the situation was right in front of him, he couldn't do anything, and he would have to be involved if he did.

Besides, with this guy's black material in his hands, if he really has any plans in the future, he can control this guy.

However, he felt that he should not need this guy...

After a long time, Jingtai slowly retracted his gaze, and said lightly:

"I know."

"Since the conclusion of this matter has been settled, there is no need to investigate further. All the maids around Concubine Shu will be executed as an example, and Concubine Shu's body should also be collected and buried..."

Jingtai sat down slowly, tapping the table with his fingers.

"The minister obeys the order."

Chen Yuan nodded.

It's just a pity that those two maids, even though they cooperated very well to find out the truth, they still had to die.Because sometimes, the truth is not important, not even the face of the royal family.

Thinking about it now, I'm afraid that another court lady who never asked to bypass her has already foreseen her end, so she didn't say a word and let the torture go.

"The ancestor worship ceremony will be held in a few days. After Chen Qing has dealt with this matter, let's go back and start preparing."

Jingtai said lightly.

"Yes, Wei Chen obeys the order."

"Go back."

"Wei Chen retire."

Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, stared at the ground, and slowly left from the imperial study.

After he left for about ten breaths, Jingtai stared at the teacup in front of him and asked softly:

"What does Cao Qing think of what Chen Yuan said?"

Cao Zhengxian hurriedly said:

"Commander Chen's ability to handle affairs is still trustworthy. Since he said so, it must be...the death of Concubine Shu was an accident."

Jingtai sneered:

"Long Xiangmo's breath, Cao Qing, who do you think is qualified to use Long Xiangmo in the palace?"

Cao Zhengxian naturally knew what Jingtai was talking about, and said in a low voice:

"Perhaps someone deliberately framed it."

How could Cao Zhengxian not know what Chen Yuan understood?

He has a high status in the palace and is a veteran of several dynasties, but naturally he must avoid scandals in the royal family.

Jingtai: "Chen Yuan is a smart man."

As Chen Yuan guessed, did Jingtai really not know that there was something wrong with Concubine Shu's death?

No, he knows.

Not only did he know, but he also knew that it must be a scandal, that's why he ordered Chen Yuan not to make it public. In fact, his eyes had already been suspicious of several princes.

Especially... Sima Ke.

With the means of the emperor, it is not too easy to check some things.

But he still pretended not to know.

The purpose was similar to what Chen Yuan had guessed before, one was to stop those sloppy mouths, the other was to not want to show off, and the third was to see if Chen Yuan was a sensible person.

If the scandal between a certain prince and concubine Shu is really made public, it will prove that Chen Yuan is not a smart person, and lacks... the reverence for the royal family.

Such a person, no matter how talented they are, is not worthy of being cultivated by the imperial court.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan knew the seriousness of the matter, and not only told the general situation of the matter, but never mentioned the slightest scandal, and gave him the initiative to deal with it.

If such a person is trained well, he will be a good horse for the Sima family in the future.
