"Master Liu."
"Cheng Anbo, please take a seat." Liu Banshan asked one of his subordinates to go out to make tea, and then said, "I don't know why Cheng Anbo is coming here now?"
"Naturally, it's because of the assassination of Duke Jingting," Rong Xia said, "I wonder what your lord has discovered now?"
"We have already figured out the source of the flower pot. The assassins are not strict. They answer whatever we ask. They should not be professional assassins. The only difficult problem now is how to catch the mastermind behind the scenes."
Liu Banshan didn't hide the case. After his subordinates made the tea, he said to his subordinates, "You all go down. I'll talk to Cheng Anbo alone."
No one in the entire Dali Temple does not know that Duke Jingting is Cheng Anbo's future husband-in-law. Regardless of whether he has a true relationship with Fule County Master, Cheng Anbo cannot be indifferent at this time, so they are very understanding when Cheng Anbo comes here. .
After everyone else had left, Liu Banshan said: "One of the four assassins is still in a coma, and the other three are seriously injured. Uncle, the master of Fule County... is a good martial artist."
Rongxia picked up the teacup and touched the corner of her lips: "This way I don't have to worry about her suffering in the future, it's good."
Liu Banshan didn't say anything more, he said loudly: "Cheng Anbo, please rest assured, the lower official will investigate this case as soon as possible."
"Lord Rong," Dali Siqing walked in, raised his hand and bowed to Rong Xia, Rong Xia stood up and returned the salute, he hurriedly turned sideways to avoid: "Lord Rong, we must investigate this case carefully, how can we bother you? You make this trip yourself."
"It just happened that I took a break today, so I came to harass the adults. The adults won't be bothered."
"Haha," Dali Siqing accompanied him with a smile, "Sir Rong is serious. If you can come here, the lower official is naturally welcome." As Dali Siqing, he knows some things that others don't. For example, His Majesty has himself by his side. The spy, but who the spy is and who the leader is, they can't figure out.
Dali Siqing suspected the possibility of Rong Xia, but felt that such a person should not be suitable for such a thing as a secret agent, so he was only half-trusted, but this did not affect his awe of Rong Xia.
"My lord, I'm naturally relieved," Rongxia smiled lightly, "I can't bear to be angry with my fiancee over this matter, and I've been in a state of panic all day, so I'm here to disturb you all, and please forgive me."
Dali Siqing laughed dryly, Cheng Anbo was putting pressure on them.
"I don't know where Mr. Jingting is..."
"Jing Ting Gong was frightened and has already returned to the manor to rest. As for Fule County Master..." Rong Xia picked up the teacup, took a slow sip, and then gently scratched the edge of the cup with the lid, scratching the heart of Dali Siqing. After all, I just hope that Rong Xia can give him a good time.
"The county master is a female class. Seeing my father suffer this, I feel very uncomfortable. Now I have gone to the palace to ask to see Your Majesty." Rong Xia sighed, "Your Majesty should also understand how your Majesty treats the Ban family, so this case is delayed. No, the more you drag on your Majesty's heart, the more angry you will become, then who will help your lord to bear the charge of incompetence?"
"Thank you, Lord Rong, for reminding me that the lower official will investigate this case." Dali Siqing was even more worried, and he didn't know where the Ban's family came from, but he was able to coax His Majesty to pay special attention to them, even during the period of filial piety, Your Majesty can also reward them every now and then. Even if the eldest princess has the grace to save her, she won't let His Majesty miss them so much, right
"I'm busy with other affairs, so I won't bother, and leave."
"Lord Rong, walk slowly."
After sending Rong Xia away, Dali Si Qing walked up to Liu Banshan and said with a sullen face, "This case has no beginning or end, let us investigate."
"Sir, this is the portrait of the messenger provided by the assassin." Liu Banshan handed the portrait to Dali Siqing, who took it and glanced at it, and immediately exclaimed in amazement: "What a great painter, Qingfeng, your painting skills have improved again. already."
"My lord, this painting was not made by me," Liu Banshan said with a wry smile, "This is the calligraphy of Anbo."
He is an official of Dali Temple, and his skills in adjudication and painting are not as good as Cheng Anbo, which makes people feel ashamed and respected.
"What?" Dali Siqing looked at the painting in surprise, "Didn't Rong Junpo never paint portraits?"
"Probably there are exceptions to everything," Liu Banshan remembered the Fule County Master, shook his head and smiled, "In any case, luckily, having this painting will make our case a lot easier this time."
Dali Siqing carefully placed the painting on the table. This was Rong Junpo's first portrait, and he had the urge to shove it into his arms.
Originally, some people said that Rong Junpo did not draw portraits because he was not good at it. However, a person who uses the mouth of an assassin to simulate the appearance of a prisoner, how could such a person not be good at drawing characters
It's a pity that the painting is a prisoner who is not amazing, otherwise he would have the shame to put this painting away.
In the Dayue Palace, a singer was singing to Emperor Yunqing. Seeing that His Majesty had some interest in her, the singer was secretly happy.
"Your Majesty, Lord Fule asks to see you."
Emperor Yunqing, who was still intoxicated by the song of the singer, sat up straight and looked at Wang De: "Who are you talking about?"
"Go back to Your Majesty, it's the Lord of Fule County."
"Yo, this girl finally stopped telling me the rules," Yun Qingdi still misses him after not seeing this child for a long time, he smiled and touched his chin and said to Wang De, "You old guy still hasn't invited anyone. Come in."
"Yes." Wang De withdrew, but thinking of the tearful appearance of Fule County Master, I was afraid that His Majesty would have a headache again.
Sure enough, when Emperor Yunqing saw Ban Hua coming in, her eyes were red and her clothes were wrinkled. He immediately thought she was being bullied and said, "Hua, what's wrong with you?"
"Your Majesty!" Ban Yan knelt in front of Emperor Yunqing, pursed her lips, as if the bullied little pitiful finally found the backbone, and cried with a wow.
She is not the concubine of Emperor Yunqing, so she doesn't need to cry restrainedly and gracefully.
"What's the matter?" Emperor Yunqing was dumbfounded by this change. He didn't have the mind to care about the singer. He hurriedly asked the female official to help Ban Hua sit up. , just to coax this aunt who couldn't restrain herself from crying.
"Girl, let's stop crying. I've been wronged. Even if I tell my cousin, my cousin will help you vent your anger." If his concubine cried like this, Emperor Yunqing would have thrown his sleeves away long ago. But this is the junior he likes, and Emperor Yunqing's mentality is different. What he thinks in his heart is who is so ignorant, and even his favorite junior dares not to show face.
If you don't give him the face of his favorite minister, you just don't give him face. Emperor Yunqing expressed that he was a little unhappy.
"Your Majesty." Ban Hua sniffed, his eyes and nose were all red. Emperor Yunqing suddenly remembered a little white rabbit he raised when he was a child. What happened to the white rabbit later
It seems that the second brother who is loved by the father is going to leave. After a few days, the rabbit was killed by the second brother. The second brother also skinned the rabbit and hung it on a tree until he knew about it. At that time, the rabbit had already been dried into a skeleton.
The memory is too long, and he can't remember it clearly, but the feeling of being oppressed has never been forgotten.
"Don't cry, don't cry, let's not be wronged," Emperor Yunqing brought a cup of honey tea to Ban Hua himself, "Drink some water first."
Ban Yu took the cup and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Emperor Yunqing let out a long sigh of relief and finally stopped crying.
"Your Majesty, someone wants to kill us." Ban Hua stared at Emperor Yunqing with big watery eyes, "I don't want to die."
"Who is going to kill you?" Emperor Yunqing's eyes widened in surprise, but what he thought in his mind was, is it because someone was dissatisfied with seeing him being too kind to the Ban family? This is simply outrageous. As an emperor, he is good to whomever he wants, yet there are still people who dare to be dissatisfied with this? !
Ban Hua didn't know what Emperor Yunqing had in mind. She told the story aside, but she was too sad and too scared. If there was an occasional omission in the story, it would be normal.
"I don't understand why someone wants to kill us, is it because..." Ban Hua seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed.
Emperor Yunqing knew that she had a temperament that couldn't hide her words, "It's okay to say something straight, you don't need to pay attention to this in front of my cousin."
"Is it because our family did something that made others dissatisfied, so someone came to take revenge on us?" Ban Hua mumbled, "Our family has been keeping filial piety recently, and we didn't offend anyone."
When Emperor Yunqing heard this, he thought further.
These people are not dissatisfied with the Ban family, I am afraid they are dissatisfied with his emperor. In the previous assassination incident, his aunt lost his life because of him. If the old part of Huiwang's mansion wanted to take revenge, they would naturally choose someone from the Ban family.
Because under my aunt's knees, there are only a few juniors from the Ban family.
As an emperor, the most taboo thing is that others calculate his throne. He is the most generous person, giving the highest respect to those he loves. He is also the meanest person. He can remember many things for a lifetime, and even many unfortunate things can involve people who hate him.
If King Hui's old department has not been cleaned up, is he still in danger as an emperor
"Girl, I will go to Dali Temple and let them investigate this case strictly, and I will never let you be wronged."
"The minister thanked Your Majesty for your kindness," Ban Hua sniffed, and seemed to remember that he had cried without image just now, so he covered his face with his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you should forget how the minister and daughter cried just now."
Emperor Yunqing couldn't help laughing out loud, "What's so embarrassing about this, you urinated on me when you were young, and now it's too late to think of shame."
Ban Hua blushed and said: "Your Majesty, the minister's daughter is a girl's family, you should save some face for the minister's daughter."
"Okay, I'll save your face," Emperor Yunqing stood up and said, "Come on, go with me to see your cousin. Today, both of our uncles and nephews are going to your cousin to eat."
The queen was talking to her two daughters-in-law, and when she heard the eunuch say that His Majesty and Princess Fule were coming over, she said to the palace servants: "Take away all these refreshments and replace them with the ones that Princess Fule often uses."
When Xie Wanyu saw that the palace servants even changed the tea in her hand, she was secretly surprised that Ban Hu was so highly valued by the queen.
No wonder she was so fearless in the past, giving no face to anyone.
The Crown Princess glanced at Xie Wanyu, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said nothing. Since it was rumored that her sister and her second uncle were unclear about their relationship, she and the second younger brother and sister had a relationship on the face, and at other times, they never said a single extra sentence.
The Crown Princess was very unhappy in her heart. She was a very well-behaved person. How could she have known that her sister had such a trouble with her uncle? Such a thing, but how could she be in a better mood
After a while, His Majesty and Ban Hua came in. She saw that Ban Hua's face was flushed, her face was not applied, and her clothes were messy and wrinkled. She couldn't help raising her eyebrows, what did Ban Hua do? Enter the palace. After meeting the emperor, you don't even talk about the rules
Xie Wanyu lowered her eyebrows and stood up to salute the emperor, as if she did not see Ban Hua behind the emperor.
"Ouch," the queen said when she saw Ban Hua like this, "what's the matter, go change clothes with someone, and I have clothes that fit your body right here."
"Thank you, Empress."
Ban Hua reluctantly smiled at the queen, and followed the palace servants to the back.
The queen looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, what happened?"
Emperor Yunqing lowered his face and said, "An assassin assassinated Duke Jingting."
What
The three noble women in the room all showed surprised expressions.
Then... Is Lord Jing Ting dead
