"How could it be, how could it be?" Gao Xin smiled flatteringly, "Then what should be done according to your lord's opinion?"

An Ran said to the dancers: "If I ask you, you answer truthfully, so that you have a chance to get out." An Ran paused, "Do you know the woman who assassinated that day?"

Several dancers shook their heads, An Ran said again: "A girl I don't know, how could you dance for His Majesty with her?"

"The dancing girl... was inserted by Eunuch Gao, and we dare not... object." A dancing girl said weakly.

An Ran immediately turned around, Gao Xin hurriedly followed, An Ran went straight to the respect room, did not see Gao Sen, and asked the father-in-law, only to find out that he died suddenly this morning.

An Ran immediately asked, "Where was his body sent?"

"I was carried out, and I should have left the palace by now." The person in charge was fair.

An Ran immediately ran out, Gao Xin was a fat man, he was very burdensome in the back, An Ran simply ignored him and went straight to Cheng Wumen.

Cheng Wumen was the family member who was going to collect the corpse, An Ran ran out of breath and shouted to the people in front: "Stop!"

The four little eunuchs turned around, knelt down, and looked forward safely. Gao Sen was lying on a stretcher, his face was completely black, and he put his fingers on the main artery in his neck, and he was indeed dead.

An Ran searched up and down, but found nothing special, and then said to Gao Xin who rushed over: "Please do a good autopsy."

"Yes." Gao Xin gasped.

An Ran asked the four young eunuchs again: "Does Gao Sen have any family?"

"Yes, his family came to collect the body today." An eunuch said.

An Ran nodded, her gaze flashed, and she ran towards Cheng Wumen again, Cheng Wumen was empty, An Ran asked the guard: "Is anyone here just now?"

"Yes." The guard said.

"Why did people leave?" An Ran asked.

"I don't know." The guard said.

An Ran frowned, and said again: "Who is it?"

"A woman." The guard said.

An Ran pondered, turned her head, and looked around, that woman could get the news so quickly, there must be his internal support in the palace.

At this time, Gao Xin rushed over: "My lord, Wu Zuo came here just now to say that Gao Sen is not dead."

An Ran was startled, and asked, "Where is he now?"

An Ran immediately followed Gao Xin, walked to the door of the room, was stunned, Wu Zuo opened his eyes, a dart was inserted straight into his throat, and a dart was also inserted into Gao Sen's throat on the stretcher, the blood was still not dry, proving that the assassin was not dead. How long to go.

An Ran immediately shouted, "What's going on around here?"

"My lord, this is the Horse Supervisor." A eunuch-like man said, with a strong stench of horses on his body.

An Ran held her nose and took a few steps back, said: "You are dead, call everyone together, I want to ask one by one."

The man hesitated for a while and said, "My lord, wait a moment."

An Ran looked at the man with a different gaze, when everyone gathered, they all smelled like horses, An Ran and Gao Xin covered their noses, looked all the way over, Gao Xin looked at it for a while, then smiled obsequiously: " My lord, look, I'm waiting for you at the back."

An Ran waved her hand and frowned: "I can't find it, go back."

On the way back, An Ran said: "The consul is the murderer."

"I'll send someone to arrest him now," Gao Xin said immediately.

An Ran said, "Don't startle the snake, he needs to lure that female assassin out."

Gao Xin nodded.

That night, An Ran and Gao Xin led their guards to ambush outside the Imperial Horse Prison. They waited until midnight when a woman's figure entered a room. An Ran waved her hand, and the guards immediately mobilized and surrounded the room.

The door was kicked open, but it was an unsightly scene. A man and a woman were naked, looking at the people who rushed in in horror.

Gao Xin turned his head, An Ran didn't look sideways: "Put these two people into prison!"

In the prison, An Ran sat upright, with the men and women escorted over just below, An Ran said: "Who ordered you? Who else is your accomplice?"

The two looked at each other: "My lord, what instigation, what accomplice?"

"Still making excuses?" An Ran laughed, "Then what are you doing late at night?"

The woman was so ashamed and angry, the eunuch said: "My lord, don't you know everything?"

"I think you guys are playing tricks!" An Ran said, "You don't need to be punished or recruited!"

"My lord, isn't it impossible to beat him into a trick?" At this moment, Gao Xin poked his head out.

An Ran said angrily: "Did you catch the right person? I caught the right person!"

Gaoxin: "..."

"Punishment!" An Ran said.

The sound of whipping sounded, and the two kept shouting for innocence. Until dawn, the two of them were blown out more than they were taken in. Gao Xin said: "My lord, if you beat me again, you will lose your breath." , It turned out to be more ruthless than him.

An Ran waved her hand, the whip stopped, An Ran said: "Let me ask again, do you want to recruit?"

"My lord wants us...to recruit?" the eunuch said weakly.

Seeing that they won't recruit anymore, An Ran turned to Gao Xin and said, "Look at them, don't let them commit suicide, I'll come as soon as I go."

An Ran went to inquire about the family members of these two people and who they usually associate with, but met Ming Cheng and the second prince on the road, and the two were arguing again, the second prince said directly: "Ninth brother, why are you so resistant to the emperor's brother?" ? Shouldn’t brothers and sisters be respectful?”

Ming Cheng shook off the hand on his shoulder: "Brother Huang has a lot of things to do every day, so I don't dare to waste Brother Huang's time."

"If you don't delay, how could you delay?" The second prince wanted to put his hand on Ming Cheng's shoulder again.

An Ran said, "Second Prince, Ninth Prince."

The second prince put down his outstretched hand, and An Ran cupped his hands to them: "I'm investigating the assassin. I don't know if the second prince has noticed anything unusual recently. For example, the maids and eunuchs around me are not doing well."

"What can I discover?" The second prince asked, and at the same time he saw Ming Cheng had gone far away, but An Ran kept chattering: "Does the second prince know Yu'er, a court lady?"

"Well, it belongs to our palace." The second prince moved his body left and right, trying to avoid An Ran's figure blocking him.

"Last night, Yu'er had an affair with a eunuch, and that eunuch was related to the assassination in the suburbs, so please tell the second prince what he has to say. After all, it belongs to your palace, and the second prince doesn't want to get involved with it, right?" ?” An Ran said.

The second prince froze for a moment and looked at him: "What do you want to ask?"

"When did Yu'er enter the palace? Is there anyone familiar in the palace?" An Ran said.

The second prince frowned all of a sudden: "You should ask the Shang Palace Bureau about this, what should I do?"

An Ran nodded and took her leave.

The second prince looked at this new champion with complaints, he was really ignorant.

An Ran inquired that the two had no family members at all, and there were no familiar people in the palace, and the two in the dungeon were desperate and refused to recruit, An Ran patted Gao Xin on the shoulder: "You are going to raise your head to see Your Majesty. "

"My lord, you have to save me." Gao Xin hugged his leg and cried.

An Ran sweated profusely, kicked and said: "I will try my best, but I ask you something, and you must answer it truthfully."

"Is it true that the concubine and his concubine disrupted the government back then?" An Ran asked.

According to the records of the Imperial Academy, he used to be a first-rank minister in the court, but was later relegated because of a crime, and the time of his relegation turned out to be after the crime with his concubine.

An Ran went through all the files, and they didn't say why Gao Xin was demoted. Except for the incident that caused a sensation in the government and the public, there was no major event at all. Therefore, An Ran had reason to suspect that Gao Xin might also be the person involved in the incident. I don't know what method he used. Not only did he save his life, but he was still an official in the court.As for those involved in the past, either died or left the palace, An Ran could only ask him.

Gao Xin looked around, there were only two people left in the dungeon, Gao Xin leaned into An Ran's ear and said, "Actually, this matter is a taboo in the palace and cannot be mentioned."

An Ran kicked him all at once, isn't that nonsense?

Gao Xin slowly climbed up again, An Ran put one hand on the handle of the chair, looked at him with squinted eyes: "Do you still want your head?"

Gao Xin touched his neck and said cautiously: "My lord is saying that this incident is related to that incident back then?"

An Ran snorted noncommittally, without expressing her attitude clearly.

Gao Xin's usual dog-legged appearance changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Actually, I don't know much about what happened back then, but Hefei has solid evidence, so it should be true."

"What do you mean should be true?" An Ran frowned, "Yes, yes, no, no!"

Gao Xin paused, as if recalling, said: "I have doubted it for so many years."

An Ran raised his spirits all of a sudden, and Gao Xin said: "Back then... before there was any evidence about the concubine, Your Majesty once asked me to call General Yang Shu back, and then General Yang Shu arrested and beheaded the entire prime minister's family, overnight. In the meantime, the prime minister's mansion, where power was overwhelming, turned into a tragedy on earth."

An Ran staggered in her heart, and stared at Gao Xin in a daze, Gao Xin still said: "If you say that Your Majesty has never been wary of Hefei, I don't believe it at all. People like Your Majesty..." He lowered his voice, "Eternal Mingjun, How come you didn't discover Hefei's intentions from the beginning to the end?"

He provided an unprecedented idea, An Ran was stunned for a few seconds, and said, "Who else have you told about this?"

Gao Xin glared at him, indicating that I can tell anyone about this matter casually?I don't want my head anymore.

An Ran patted him on the shoulder very appreciatively: "Master Gao, you've been pretending to be a fool for so many years, haven't you?" As a master of acting, he really didn't notice that he has regressed, and he needs to practice more in the future up.

"Pretend to be real." Gao Xin sighed, 20 years...
