A drop of ink slipped down the tip of the pen, staining the neat handwriting on the memorial. The little emperor stopped writing, and his eyes slowly moved up, stopping at He Yang's knuckle-knuckle hands.

"What did you tell her, why did she kneel outside?" the little emperor lowered his eyes, and his voice could not discern emotion.

"She herself is willing to kneel, what can I do?" He Yang stepped forward, opened the lid of the food box, a few refreshing side dishes were still steaming, mixed with the sweet smell of pastries, it made people's index fingers twitch .

But the little emperor's expression didn't look appetizing, his eyelashes drooped, and he refused to look at him. Hearing Shen Yixuan's shout, he frowned slightly: "Let her in."

He Yang turned a deaf ear to it, picked up a few papers pleading for Mrs. Shen, spread them out on the table, and then took out all the delicate dishes from the food box and placed them on the table, casually said: "Shen Yixuan is not a queen, Second, it’s not a courtier, wouldn’t it be a violation of the rules to enter and leave this imperial study at will.”

The little emperor raised his head, stared at him blankly for a while, then suddenly got up, walked around the desk, and walked to the front of the hall.

He Yang seemed to have expected it a long time ago, stretched out his arm to stop him, and pulled him into his arms: "Where are you going?"

These words were obviously asked knowingly, the little emperor's chest heaved, and the anger that had been suppressed several times surged in his eyes, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Judging the case."

"Why rush at this moment." He Yang put his hands around his waist, like two impenetrable chains, firmly restricting Chu Ziyu's range of action within half a step: "I did not take care of your majesty's body last night. If you have the energy to take care of state affairs today, if you still have the energy, why not make up for all the times you owed your ministers yesterday..."

"Ji Xiao——" the little emperor's eyes were red, his voice was trembling, and there was an imperceptible trace of embarrassment in his eyes.

"Your servant is here." He Yang replied with a smile, his lips brushed against the little emperor's ear, and warned in a low voice: "But this time no matter how much you cry and beg me, I won't soften my heart. .”

The little emperor's fingertips curled up, and the precious clothes were wrinkled and deformed in his palm. When He Yang reached into his collar, his fingers suddenly lost strength. He closed his eyes as if in compromise, and calmly said, "I'm hungry."

He Yang had been paying attention to his expression, and there was an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

[The target of the attack is a good student? 】

After the system has been upgraded to 2.0, the ability to capture human emotions has been improved, but the ability to interpret is still weak.

He Yang turned a deaf ear, lightly brushed the messy skirt of the little emperor's clothes, then took out a coral pendant from his bosom like a magic trick, and tied it around his fair neck slowly.

The little emperor was slightly stunned, staring at He Yang's fingertips with puzzled eyes. In his impression, these hands could not only conquer the battlefield, but also play tricks to disrupt the court, but they were used to manipulate these exquisite objects. out of place.

He lowered his head uncomfortably, his chin just happened to touch the back of He Yang's hand, the soft force seemed to be rubbed by a small furry animal, He Yang didn't rush to stop his hand after tying the knot, he forced him to raise his head, and asked with a smile: " Like it?"

"..."

Chu Ziyu turned his head and didn't answer, He Yang didn't ask any more questions, and pulled him back to sit on the dragon chair.

It was rare for the little emperor to let go of his airs and let others manipulate him. Whether it was true or false, this obedient appearance was still very pleasing to the eye.

It's a pity that the harmonious atmosphere lasted less than three seconds. As soon as the little emperor sat down, he saw the memorial under the dishes, and his face was instantly clouded, especially the black and white letters were still covered with cake crumbs.

He Yang followed his gaze, dusted it lightly twice, with a nonchalant expression: "Shen's party is full of nonsense, every word and every word is to excuse that old guy's crimes, even using it to pad the table has wronged the minister Kind regards to His Majesty."

"You..." The little emperor laughed back angrily, clutching the corner of the table tightly, and said in a restrained tone, "Is it not clear to me who is so powerful and colluding with the party?"

He Yang pondered for a moment, shook his head meaningfully, and said with a light smile, "One day, Ziyu will know, the loyalty of my minister to His Majesty is a lesson from heaven and earth..."

"Presumptuous—" There was a sudden commotion outside the door, and the young eunuchs scrambled to kneel down, not daring to breathe.

"Who gave you the guts to belittle the future queen like this!"

The little emperor frowned slightly, and stood up involuntarily. In this palace, there was only one person who dared to severely criticize the slaves in front of the imperial court.

Across the heavy palace door, the little eunuchs begged for mercy, which gradually overwhelmed Shen Yixuan's sense of existence. He Yang walked up to the little emperor, smiled, and said regretfully, "Your Majesty hasn't tasted this pastry yet, what a show." It's already started."

"You deliberately sent someone to pass on the Queen Mother to lead her here." The little emperor frowned, but there was nothing he could do.

"Yes, Shen Yixuan was let in on purpose by me, but it was not to humiliate her." He Yang did not hide the calculation in his eyes, and smiled lightly: "I want to make this move of the Queen Mother completely Get rid of it."

Between the words, the queen mother had already rushed in with Shen Yixuan's hand, and He Yang and Chu Ziyu stood side by side, with their hands on his waist intimately, without any intention of letting go.

"Come here, take Ji Xiao, a rebellious official and traitor, to the Ai family." The queen mother was domineering, and after entering the palace, she pointed a finger at He Yang, and the palace people surrounded by her were waiting for the opportunity.

However, He Yang turned sideways slightly, glanced at the crowd from the corner of his eye, and said in a calm and forceful tone, "I'll see who dares."

As soon as this remark came out, the Empress Dowager keenly noticed that the people around her stopped in unison, as if facing a flood of beasts, hesitating.

There are rumors that General Ji can fight one against a hundred on the battlefield, and can kill someone in an instant. Isn't it like picking something out of a bag to deal with these unarmed little guys...

"You bunch of trash, what's the use of Aijia raising you?"

"Empress Dowager, don't be angry." Shen Yixuan gently tugged at the sleeve of the Empress Dowager, with an anxious expression on her face, she persuaded in a low voice: "It wasn't General Ji who asked me to kneel in front of the hall, he..."

"He planted the crown prince and disrupted the marriage of the emperor and empress. What is it if he is not a traitor?" The queen mother interrupted fiercely without waiting for Shen Yixuan to finish speaking, her eyes were full of hatred.

He Yang walked down the steps step by step, dressed in brocade clothes, in stark contrast to the embarrassment he had when he left the imperial city. He stopped calmly, his gaze was cold: "The empress dowager speaks so harshly, is there a ghost in her heart? Taifu Shen The case is only temporarily in custody, and the case has not yet been tried, and the queen mother insisted that the general planted and framed him, did he know the secrets long ago?"

"Ridiculous!" The empress dowager's gorgeous makeup gradually distorted, and she said through gnashed teeth, "Anyone with eyes can see that you are deliberately taking revenge."

He Yang clicked his tongue in amazement, changed the topic, and said puzzledly: "Earlier, the queen mother didn't treat me like that. I remember you planned to be a matchmaker for me, saying that I can choose any boudoir lady in the imperial city."

Shen Yixuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, she suddenly realized something, she raised her head in disbelief, and sure enough, she heard He Yang say:

"I've always been upright, and I accidentally took the queen mother's promises seriously. The reason why I prevented the empress from getting married is precisely because... I have admired Miss Shen for a long time."

He Yang talked about his admiration for Shen Yixuan, but his eyes fell on the little emperor unabashedly.

Chu Ziyu lowered his eyelashes, and could still feel the scorching gaze. He peeled off his clothes layer by layer in the public, revealing the traces that hadn't faded.

His fingertips couldn't help trembling in his sleeves, he was ashamed, helpless, and even a little bit of secret joy.

"I don't know what Miss Shen thinks?" He Yang had seen enough, and just now he looked away, the corners of his lips curled up, and there was a playful smile on his face.

"Empress Dowager..." Shen Yixuan's face was snow-white, and her moist eyes were full of panic.

It was difficult for He Yang to tell the truth from her expression, and the two of them collided in the air from the corner of their eyes, as if they had cleverly reached some kind of tacit agreement.

"I know that I have no talent or virtue, and I am not worthy of being the queen of the dynasty, and I dare not cling to General Ji Xiao. She would rather marry a trafficker and pawn, and live in peace and stability for the rest of her life." Shen Yixuan knelt down and kowtowed, then raised her head and looked at He Yang: "I just hope that my father is old, find out the truth as soon as possible, and avoid the pain of prison."

"Miss Shen, don't worry, the emperor has sent Mr. Gu Huaishan, the servant of the criminal department, to investigate the case. Taifu Shen will not be in prison for long."

He Yang stood with his hands behind his back, with a soft light shining between his brows and eyes.

[Why do I feel that you are not so kind, do you want to convict him as soon as possible, drag him out of prison and behead him? 】

He Yang: I never said that.

【Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 】

He Yang: Inducing my actions, interfering with my plans, when have you ever done this piece of equipment right?

"If it happens again, it won't be so simple." He Yang made a pun, and looked at the Queen Mother with warning eyes: "The ladies of every household in the city, as long as they can get into the eyes of the emperor, they can also get into the eyes of the emperor." The general's eye."

"Ji Xiao, you are shameless..."

"Come here, send the queen mother back to the palace to rest."

As soon as He Yang finished speaking, the door of the palace opened wide, but this time it was not ordinary palace people who came in, but four tall and strong soldiers equipped with sharp weapons.

They were all well-trained, and they immediately carried out He Yang's order without saying a word.

The queen mother was "sent" back to the palace to rest, and Shen Yixuan was by her side. A big drama was finally coming to an end.

"In the future, no one will force you to become queen." He Yang turned around with an earnest smile on his face: "Ziyu, I solved a problem for you."

The little emperor kept silent, raised his head and stared at He Yang motionlessly, but his eyes were a little strange.

"In the next few days, you should rest well, and no one will disturb you." He Yang thought for a moment, and said naturally: "You don't have to worry about that case, I believe Master Gu will handle it impartially."

"Ah!" Gu Huaishan sneezed heavily as soon as he stepped out of the house. He rubbed the tip of his nose, and suddenly an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

Sure enough, just as he took his left foot, two familiar figures walked towards him outside the door.

"Stop!" Liu Yun's eyes were quick, and he took a few steps forward to grab Gu Huaishan's sleeve, but the latter retreated into the door without hesitation. Seeing that the red-painted door was about to close in front of him, Liu Yun bit his face ferociously. Tooth, life and death do not let go.

In the end, Yan got the unlucky piece of cloth into the crack of the door.

The two sides were deadlocked across a door, chattering endlessly:

"You, let go!"

"Not loose, come out for me."

"This is my house, you are called entering the house..."

"You two!" Ji Ting, who was on the sidelines, couldn't stand it anymore. While cutting off the corner of his sleeve with a sword, he smashed the wooden door bolt.

The two were stunned at the same time, looking at each other through the hole in the door panel, not knowing how to react.

Liu Yun took the lead in giving Ji Ting a thumbs up, and exclaimed, "The swordsmanship is good!"

"Thanks for the prize, my brother taught me from a young age." Ji Ting put his sword back into its sheath, his movements were smooth and smooth, and finally turned to Gu Huaishan, cupped his fists and saluted, explaining his intentions: "I heard that Mr. Gu has a new case in his hands, and I am here to help you .”

"That's right, I'm here to help too." Liu Yun clasped his hands and echoed.

"Why are you joining in the fun!" Gu Huaishan wrinkled his face, squinted his eyes and warned: "The old case involves a lot of things, and if you are not careful, you will be killed."

"It's okay, it's about brother, I have to go through even the muddy water." Ji Ting held the sword, turned to look at Liu Yun, and asked with a smile, "Are you afraid, sir?"

"I'm afraid... How can I be afraid." Liu Yun couldn't control his legs shaking, straightened his back in a pretentious manner, looked around and said, "Why hasn't General Ji come yet, why don't I go to the general's mansion as an official to invite you."

"I just came out of the General's Mansion, and my brother isn't here." Ji Ting hooked Liu Yun's shoulders to prevent him from escaping, and said slowly: "Master Liu, let's save some energy and help investigate the case."

Gu Huaishan saw that he couldn't get rid of the two of them, so he stroked his beard and thought of a compromise: "If the two of you insist on meddling in this matter, why not go to the prison of the Criminal Ministry together and carefully investigate the first scene of Han Ye's death. Temporary loan..."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Gu." Ji Ting's eyes flashed brightly, and he smiled like a fox who had practiced for thousands of years: "It doesn't matter how Han Ye died now, and I'm not a three-year-old kid, so you can coax me with a waist card Play?"

What's more, no one in this world knows exactly how Han Ye died better than him.

Gu Huaishan lowered his eyes and sighed, and walked back with his hands in his hands.

Liu Yun was stunned and asked, "Where are you going?"

Gu Huaishan stopped in his tracks, picked up his broken sleeve and turned around, "I'll change clothes!"

"My lord, don't blame me. I'll ask Master Liu to pay you a new one sometime later." Ji Ting raised the corners of his mouth, with an expression that he doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

Liu Yun: "..." The two brothers really seemed to be withdrawing, and they used him as a small treasury.

At the corner where the two of them couldn't see outside the door, Gu Huaishan's pace suddenly accelerated. He didn't care to change his clothes, so he hurriedly wiped off his sweat and slipped into the backyard. He looked around like a thief, and after making sure that there was no one around, he turned sideways Squeezed out through the narrow back door.

"Master Gu, what a coincidence." Ji Ting walked slowly in the light and shadow, and his smile was quite meaningful: "Why did you change your clothes and come here? Could it be that you will get lost in your own home?"

Gu Huaishan was startled, completely discouraged, and put on a bitter face and said: "General Ji explained this case back then, and besides him and me, no third person should know about it."

"Back then?" Ji Ting smirked, lowered his voice and said: "Back then my brother almost killed the king, but now the world is not named Chu."

Gu Huaishan shook his head, and leaned against the wall of his own courtyard, as if he was about to merge with the weather-beaten bricks and tiles: "This case is much more than it seems on the surface. General."

When Ji Xiao was young, he had a glorious and reckless life.

That year, he had a new degree, and was the eldest son of the general's mansion. Playing with folding fans... will attract young people to follow suit and flock to them.

In contrast, Ji Ting, the second son of the General's Mansion, is rarely known. He doesn't like to study, and he also likes to be lazy when practicing martial arts. Moreover, he never admits that Ji Xiao is his brother in front of outsiders.

Until that year's Lantern Festival, Ji Ting and a group of friends were hanging out in the market.

"Look, when will there be another restaurant?"

"Wow, the lights in his house are so big and beautiful."

"It seems to be guessing lantern riddles there, go over and have a look..."

The young masters of the official family seldom come out on weekdays, and they are all attracted by the lively scene at this moment. Ji Ting is the one who rushed to the front. Although he is not as good as Ji Xiao, he is also considered agile and easy among his peers Then came out on top.

Jealousy burns people's eyes, there is a well-known Ji Xiao in the imperial city is enough to be annoying, they are compared with him all the time, but they can't even reach the corner of that person's clothes, now...

In the chaos, it was unknown who was the first to do it. Ji Ting held the gift box he had just won in both hands, and was pushed to the ground unexpectedly.

In the lively and noisy street, the cold and dirty soles of shoes rolled over his wrists, and the people around him took the opportunity to kick and step on him intentionally or unintentionally.

"--stand up."

Ji Xiao appeared at this moment, with sullen eyes hidden in his eyes, standing in the crowd, he pulled up the dusty Ji Ting, holding a box in the other hand, and asked indifferently: "Your ?”

"Mine." Ji Ting wiped his face hard, and took back the gift box he had won. He felt mixed feelings for a while, and what was even more annoying was that he was almost trampled on just now, and the box was intact!

However, before he could find out what was inside, Ji Xiao had already used lightness kung fu to fly him up to the attic, and the next moment, hundreds of coins shining with golden light under the moonlight scattered all over the ground like a celestial maiden scattered flowers.

The common people happily squatted down to pick up money, and for a while, the surrounding area was filled with water, leaving only the few young masters who grew up in the golden nest and silver nest, standing there dumbfounded for a while.

Ji Xiao took out a slingshot and a bag of pellets, and handed them to Ji Ting, who took them knowingly after a short pause.

"What's the matter, I want to spank his ass, but I can't aim right." Ji Ting played with high interest, and the revenge was very refreshing.

Ji Xiao looked at the few little furry children who wanted to run away, couldn't hide, and were screaming and screaming. There was a smug smile in his eyes, and he pointed out solemnly: "Don't shake your wrist, aim a little. "

After a while, Ji Ting slowly withdrew his hand, looking a little uncomfortable, bowed his head and said, "Brother, you can teach me in the future."

Ji Xiao was startled, before he had time to say anything, Ji Ting stuffed the won gift box into his hand, saying heavily, "That's it, take my things, don't go back on your word."

Ji Xiao didn't refuse, Fengshen's handsome face showed a warm smile, even in the warm and cold season, under the cold and bright moonlight, it was intoxicating.

However, this night seems to be destined to intertwine all the good and the ugly, the good and the bloody.

A secret edict came from the palace, and the Zhenguo sword enshrined in the Taimiao was stolen.

Overnight, the three ministers of the DPRK and China died in the brothel, the wine shop, and the study room at home, all with a sword to seal their throats.

The old emperor was furious, and sent Gu Huaishan to secretly track down the whereabouts of the sword and the murderer, and Ji Xiao assisted him not to leak any news.

It seems a more appropriate choice for such a highly dangerous and thankless task to be entrusted to the upright Minister of the Criminal Ministry and Ji Xiao, who has just entered the court as an official, but it is full of weirdness.

Ji Xiao followed Gu Huaishan to handle the case, and after about half a month, before they could figure it out, the murderer appeared again.

This time, not only the ministers of the court and the central government died, but also his youngest son who was only six years old.

When they got the news, they rushed to Yongchanghou's Mansion as soon as they got the news. When they saw the young corpse, Ji Xiao's expression changed suddenly, his eyes became icy cold, and he clutched Gu Huaishan's sleeve and said in a hoarse voice: "You now Go back immediately, this case can no longer be investigated."

"Why, why?" Gu Huaishan's eyes were horrified, and at the same time, an ominous premonition emerged in his heart.

"If the direction is wrong from the beginning..." Ji Xiao took two deep breaths, trying to maintain his composure, but his eyes became darker and darker, he shook his head with difficulty: "The less you know about this matter, Only then can we retreat completely.”

"Wait, where are you going?" Gu Huaishan grabbed Ji Xiao's arm, but was pulled away by the latter's stronger force.

Ji Xiao disappeared in front of the night, restraining his turbulent emotions, and said word by word: "I have to verify one thing myself."

"So my brother must have discovered something back then, which stimulated him to do those... outrageous things." Ji Ting looked furious, and stared at Gu Huaishan viciously: "You have kept these things a secret for so long."

"Don't be impatient, Mr. Ji, the incident has passed for so many years, and the late emperor also drove west, and many truths have long been buried in the loess along with the bones." Gu Huaishan took a breath, stood up straight while supporting the courtyard wall. : "Besides, the situation at that time was complicated, and the truth that General Ji believed was not necessarily true, otherwise he would not let me dig up this old case."

"That's not necessarily the case." Ji Ting narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Maybe my brother just wants to show this mess of dirty, filthy, and disgusting people to the evil spirits who are still in the world according to its original trajectory. Woolen cloth."
