Chapter 537 Flaws
"Your Majesty..."
The inner supervisor stepped forward and said in a salute: "The Minister Cai Ji has just come to spread the word, saying that the assassin's affairs have made progress."
Emperor Qingming's eyes moved.
The queen's fingers holding the tea cup tightened slightly, but her face did not show a slight difference: "Since progress has been made, your majesty, let's go to business. The concubines will take care of themselves not to distract your majesty."
Emperor Qingming nodded, and said to her: "Queen and rest assured, I will go back and take a look."
"Yes." The queen stood up and said, "My concubine will give you a gift to your majesty."
She sent Emperor Qingming out of Yukun Palace, and watched the dragon go away professionally enough.
"Niang, let's go back." Mother Jiang said softly from one side.
The queen nodded, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.
She knows a bit about what kind of person Li Ji is. If he says there is progress, then there must be real progress worth mentioning...
Where is it not cleaned up?
And she hasn't gotten a reply that the matter is settled, could it be that something went wrong in the middle?
But no matter what kind of possibility and change, she can only watch the changes first, and not blindly impulsive. The dog emperor has always been treacherous, and maybe the little **** was just acting and deliberately scolding her. Try to see if there will be any action under her guilty conscience.
And at this time Habayashi guards in her palace...
I have done everything that should be done boldly. The more you are at this time, the more calm you are...
The queen concealed the ups and downs of her eyes, and took Mother Jiang back to the bedroom.
……
Half an hour ago——
A group of eunuchs who came to the dark court to deliver food just left, Xiaojiezi was squatting in front of the house holding a broken bowl and sipping cold water. It was salty porridge in the evening, and there was a faintly rotten taste. In order to prevent others from seeing the strangeness, he tried to drink a bowl. Now he only feels that the rotten taste is entangled in his throat and makes people nauseous. Take cold water and press it down.
Just after pouring a bowl of cold water, Xiaojiezi rubbed his chin with his sleeve, but suddenly he heard a rush of footsteps.
"It's him! I saw him sneaking up and going out last night without sleeping!" A thin **** with a disheveled beard and beard covering his face said, pointing to Xiaojiezi.
And the two people beside him are dressed like Yu Lin Jun.
Xiao Jiezi was startled when he heard it, dropped the broken bowl and stood up suddenly: "Liu San'er, what are you crazy about again!"
"I just saw it! I saw it with my own eyes!" The **** named Liu San'er pointed at his eyes with two fingers. There was abnormal light in those eyes: "I told the truth, you can take three. A steamed bun!"
"Have you been out last night?" One of the Habayashi soldiers fixedly looked at Xiaojiezi.
"The villain never left the house last night!" Xiaojiezi hurriedly said: "Brother guard, you two are afraid that you don't know. This Liu San'er has been crazy for a long time. He is talking nonsense to deceive rewards. You two can't believe what he said!"
The two Habayashi-wei exchanged glances, and immediately said one humanely: "After searching, let's talk about it!"
Gong Ji kept putting pressure on them, and now we can’t let go of any suspicious things.
The inside and outside of this dark court were also searched last night, but since the traces of the'Assassin' leaving the dark court were found, it was urgent to expand the scope of manpower to block the way out, so I just searched and interrogated here. , If you say how fine, but there is no.
"Brother guard, the villain is really wronged!"
Little Jiezi panicked and shouted injustices from the side.
The two Habayashi Guards did not care about him so much, they almost turned the house upside down.
Although there are people living in the house, it has not been cleaned for a long time. A thick layer of dust accumulates in the corners of the corner. Under such rummaging, the dust dances wildly in the sunlight from the dilapidated window, and the two Yulin Guards frown and cough.
At this time, two rustling sounds suddenly appeared in a tank placed in the corner of the wall.
"What's hidden in the tank?" A Yu Linwei heard the noise, stared at the tank closely, and asked with a guarded voice.
The tank is half a person high, and it is covered with a tattered and mouldy bamboo cover.
Another Habayashi walked forward quickly, drew the long knife in his hand and picked off the bamboo cover.
"叽叽叽......"
A sudden light appeared, and the contents in the tank screamed in shock.
Na Yu Lin Wei took a closer look, and saw that there were actually four or five little mice.
"This is raised by a villain!" Xiaojiezi walked over and explained, "I touched a mouse nest last time. Seeing that the mouse nest is still young, I kept it in a tank. In summer, insects are easy to catch. , I caught some crickets and grasshoppers in the grass nest and fed them. I thought it would be a good meal if I grew up... Can I eat the ones I raised myself with confidence?"
Yu Linwei twisted his eyebrows, and his stomach surged.
"The two eldest brothers have also seen me. I really don’t have any assassins here. I can’t even get a full meal. Where can the dogs dare to do this!"
The **** ran in again, staring at him viciously: "I just saw it, he sneaked out! He was with the assassin!"
Seems really crazy.
When the two Habayashi guards were about to leave, they saw an inmate approaching and glanced at the situation in the room, with a feminine and arrogant voice: "Jigong said, but anyone who is a little suspicious must be brought to his old man for a closer examination. There must not be any fish slipping through the net."
Li Ji is the person who is directly responsible for this matter. Yu Linwei dare not say anything, so he escorts Xiaojiezi out of the dark court.
When I saw Li Ji, Xiao Jiezi was already in a cold sweat, and the panic in his eyes had nowhere to hide.
Before he was punished to go to the dark court, he was just a lowly little eunuch. He had never seen this great eunuch, but he was naturally afraid of him.
Here is a dark room. Only a small square hole was opened in the back wall. A ray of light penetrated through the small hole, but the view of the room was still dim.
The big **** sat in an armchair, making people unable to see his expression clearly.
Little Jiezi was escorted to kneel on the ground. He saw a Yu Linwei whispering something in Li Ji's ear, and then Li Ji raised his eyes and looked at him.
"Jigong, the villain is really wronged, the villain did nothing..."
"Really?" Li Jiqing "hissed" and said, "But why did you come in and the two doors closed, so I smelled the aroma of sub-medicine? This smell is rather like last night. I sniffed in the dark room..."
Little Jiezi's face instantly turned white.
He went into the dark room last night and passed the man named Joe back. Could it be the smell he had gotten back then? !
"The villain... the villain really doesn't know anything!" He knocked his head on the ground, trembling in defense, but didn't know what to say. At this time, the more he said, the easier it would be to reveal his stuff!
However, his reaction fell in Li Ji's eyes, no doubt it was strange.
A person who can climb to the position of a palm-print **** has a pair of unique and vicious eyes that have been trained long ago.
