Neither Bai Shaoting nor Huo Jingyun spoke.
Ling Chen looked at Huo Jingyun and asked, "Jingyun, what do you think?"
Huo Jingyun said: "I feel that this time the behavior is not like that of King Ning. Did he change the method? I wonder if there will be other forces, such as the Northern Yi Remnant Party, or other remnants of the Party?"
Bai Shaoting said: "But one thing is for sure. These people are indeed very familiar with the imperial palace. King Ning has indeed changed a lot now. Based on his massacre of the city, he should be the one who used those people's vicious methods that night."
Ling Chen nodded.
"As for letting the princess go again, only King Ning can do such a thing. King Ning didn't know that Qingyun was the former queen. After all, he had a good relationship with Beiyi, so it makes sense to let Princess Beiyi go." Bai Shaoting said.
Han Zhitao asked: "But why did he kidnap the princess? He didn't see her after he kidnapped the princess, and then released her again."
Huo Jingyun said: "Perhaps King Ning hijacked Qingyun because he was afraid that his men would kill the princess by mistake when he assassinated the emperor? The assassination of the emperor failed, and he thought it would be a hindrance to escape with the princess?"
King Rui nodded: "Maybe so. The person who kidnapped Qingyun doesn't seem to want to hurt Qingyun...."
Ling Chen immediately said: "Why don't you want to be hurt! You were already hurt when you were kidnapped!"
King Rui immediately shut up.
Ling Chen said: "Jingyun, send someone to find out the whereabouts of King Ning. Next, we will concentrate on taking Shangdan Kingdom!"
Ling Chen's face was serious, the base camp was almost bombed, isn't this a blatant provocation!
Seeing Qingyun frowning, he asked, "Do you have anything to say?"
Qingyun said: "Who have you sent to assassinate the emperor, and the Canglong guards have been dispatched?"
Gu Fan lowered his head again.
Han Zhitao said: "These people's moves are vicious and weird, and they move quickly. They are strictly trained killers who come and go without a trace. Those who are injured and cannot escape immediately take poison and kill themselves without leaving any clues."
Qingyun asked Huo Jingyun and Bai Shaoting: "Senior Brother and Brother Bai also can't see the clue?"
Huo Jingyun said: "Yes, these people have received strict training and are not ordinary raiders."
Qingyun was very disturbed, senior brother and big brother Bai couldn't see the way, who could these people be
Xiao Guizi had brought someone to set up lunch, Ling Chen's injuries were mainly on his right arm and leg. He struggled to eat.
Qingyun personally fed the emperor, she was not as respectful as others to the emperor, but like feeding a child, Ling Chen's soup stuck to his mouth, just as the fringed handkerchief was handed over, Qingyun had already wiped the emperor with his sleeve .
Like an old couple who have been together for many years.
Liusu looked at it and sighed in his heart, thinking of the emperor's deep affection for the empress. Now that the empress's bones are still alive, and it has been less than a month since her death, the emperor and this Princess Qingyun are so affectionate. A man's love is really unreliable.
She remembered that the empress had always been very kind to them, and it was her help that Pearl got married to King Rui as she wished, and the empress had no airs towards them court ladies. Although this Princess Qingyun was also good, she was incomparable to the empress. Moreover, she was so attentive before marrying the emperor, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
They also discussed the government of the court today, discussed the education of various countries, the methods of recruiting talents, suggested that regardless of national borders, regardless of background, the leadership of people, and discussed the issue of taxation.
Qingyun and Liusu help the imperial doctor change the emperor's dressing together. Qingyun looked at the emperor's wound, it has healed, but there is nothing serious about it.
Everyone stayed in Linhua Hall for more than an hour, seeing that the emperor should also rest, and prepared to leave.
When sending them out, Qingyun specially went to see Huo Jingyun: "Senior Brother, I went to the Fumantang restaurant where you used to take me to dinner a few days ago, and saw a person who looked like you, but unfortunately he left too fast , did not see clearly."
Huo Jingyun said: "Oh, it's possible, I did go there for dinner, with some former friends, why didn't you call me?"
Qingyun said: "When I saw you, you were walking out. I called you, but you didn't hear me."
Huo Jingyun said: "In those few days, there were too many things. I was a little irritable about my father's affairs and the marriage that was urged by my family. I probably didn't hear about it."
Qingyun nodded: "I just said why would senior ignore me. Senior brother, do you know Liu Chong? He is dead. He came to the palace and climbed into the palace from the west wall of Changxin Palace. He was seriously injured and died. It was a weird injury, as if the bone and skin had come off."
Huo Jingyun pondered for a while: "This kind of injury is really rare, it is very similar to the bone claw of the bone chopping skill. But the bone chopping magic skill has long been lost."
"I'm very strange now, why did Liu Chong go to the palace to find me?"
Huo Jingyun pondered for a while: "It's a bit suspicious. Maybe he really wants to see you. He has always been very kind to Lan Ling. Maybe he heard the news that you are Lan Ling? But it shouldn't be possible. I know."
Qingyun said: "I always feel that things will not be so simple."
Huo Jingyun said: "Well, I understand what you mean, I will find someone to find out what Liu Chong has been doing recently and who he has been in contact with."
After sending them off, Qingyun returned to Linhua Hall.
Ling Chen looked at Qing Yun with a dark face: "Why is it so long, what are we talking about?"
Qingyun smiled and said: "I talked to senior brother a few words, I want to ask him about Liu Chong."
"Haven't you let go of that?" Ling Chen asked.
Qingyun pondered and said: "No, Liu Chong was very kind to me when I was in Lan's house before. So this matter has never passed in my heart. First, he died for no reason. Second, I always feel that he died desperately. If you come to the palace, you must tell me something."
"Okay, I'll order someone to investigate." Ling Chen said, and after finishing speaking, he glanced at Qing Yun: "Have you asked Huo Jingyun to investigate?"
Qingyun hurriedly said: "No, no, wouldn't it be faster for the emperor to send someone to investigate?"
Ling Chen's face was finally not so dark.
Qingyun couldn't laugh or cry seeing him, and glared at him: "My brother is getting married soon, what are you thinking about all day long!"
Ling Chen reached out and hugged Qingyun, "Come up quickly, come to my side, I haven't rested in peace for a long time, I need to catch up on sleep today."
It was true what he said. The dark shadows in his eyes can tell that he has not had a good rest.
Qingyun went to bed obediently, Ling Chen hugged her, pressed her against his chest, and closed his eyes contentedly.
She held Ling Chen's arm with both hands, put his hand to her lips, and asked Ling Chen in a low voice: "Is the Canglong Guardian your last defense?"
Ling Chen shook her hand: "Don't be anxious, I can protect myself. I'm afraid that something will happen to you."
Ling Chen didn't tell her his last hole card. Qingyun never asked again.
She had a very strange idea, those people who came to assassinate Ling Chen with great fanfare, maybe they came to spy on Ling Chen's power, or wanted to see Ling Chen's cards.
She couldn't help but shudder at the thought.
