C238 An Impossible Killer

After Mu Po left the prison, he turned around and left with his hands clasped behind his back.

Yu Longchen and the others had not woken up yet. Everyone came to take a look. After confirming that they had saved their lives, they retreated to another room.

Yu Longtang and Consort Long came for a while. After comforting Mu Ruqing a little, they also left. Yu Longtang was behind Consort Long and saw that Mu Ruqing wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he still waved his hand and walked out.

"Emperor." Mu Po entered and did not perform a bow. He only bowed to them. The Empress, Consort Long and Yu Longtang nodded their heads to indicate.

"Did you find out?" The Emperor's voice was low and his fingers were tightly clenched on the chair.

"This official invites the Emperor to issue an Imperial Decree to search the Duke Ling's Mansion." Mu Po knelt on the ground and pleaded.

Consort Long and Yu Longtang looked at each other. They were completely unaware of what happened today. When they received the news, all of them were worried about Yu Longchen and did not think about anything else.

"I am afraid it is not appropriate for the Prime Minister to make such a request." Yu Longzi's injuries were not completely healed. The expression on his face was not clear whether it was the pain or worry.

"Does Eldest Prince know what happened tonight?" Mu Po didn't turn his head, "The Crown Prince and Princess of Yunmeng Country, as well as King Chu, are both injured. If we don't find out what happened, how are we going to explain it to the people of Yunmeng Country?"

"Let's investigate." Yu Longzi entered the door and knelt down with Mu Po. He clasped his hands and bowed to the Emperor. “ The Duke of Ling is the general of Dayong. He has outstanding military exploits and no evidence to back him up. If we want to investigate the prefecture, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the soldiers. "

"Rest assured, Eldest Prince. If there is no evidence, how would this old official dare to request an Imperial Decree from the Emperor?" Mu Po looked at Yu Longzi who was kneeling by the side and brought along a spy. This matter might have something to do with him.

"Lord Prime Minister, why don't you bring the evidence to take a look so that we can be convinced." Yu Longzi lowered his head to the Emperor.

The Empress's brows did not relax. The Duke of Ling was her brother, and Yu Longzi would not discuss anything with the Empress unless he needed her.

The Empress only knew that Duke Ling's Mansion could not be searched just like that. "What Zi-er said is, if the people were sent out, it would be good if they really caught the people. If we only listen to the words of the sinners and wrongly blame the Duke of Ling, I'm afraid that it would attract the criticism of the officials in the Imperial Court."

"This subject believes that we should search." At this moment, Yu Longtang naturally would not be idle. He did not care what Yu Longchen wanted to do. Prime Minister Mu must know the importance of this matter. If he is not confident, then... How dare he ask Royal Father for an Imperial Decree? "

"Yes." The Emperor rubbed his chin and looked at the group of people in front of him who had their own thoughts.

"Royal Father, please be careful!" Yu Longzi raised his head and looked at the Emperor.

The Emperor received his gaze and was a little unhappy, but he did not show it.

"Emperor, the reason why Lord Mayor did not rescue in time was because he was held back by a group of men in black." Mu Po added, "When the Princess went to find King Chu, she also met the black clothed people who escaped. They went from the direction of Duke Ling's Mansion..."

Mu Po did not directly say that he had entered Duke Ling's Mansion. He only hinted that everyone understood.

"Someone come in!" The Emperor made up his mind and Commander of Praetorian Guard came in from the outside.

"Pass on my order to search the Duke Ling's Mansion. Arrest all suspicious people." The Emperor lightly slammed the table.

The Praetorian Guard clasped their hands together and said, "Yes."

"Emperor, Chenqie thought that we should let Prime Minister Mu go together. Firstly, the Duke of Ling and Mu Zai were both important officials in the court. They would not look down on him. Secondly, if there was anything the Duke of Ling did not know, it will be easier with Prime Minister Mu around. " Consort Long's voice was gentle and would not make one tired of it.

However, everyone knew what she meant. If the Duke of Ling did not let anyone enter to search and said that he wanted to meet the Sage personally, as long as Mu Po was here, he could not say anything else.

"Mu Aiqing, you should go too." The Emperor thought that Consort Long's words made sense and casually waved his hand.

"Yes." Mu Po received the order and left.

Yu Longzi looked at Mu Po's figure and felt somewhat uneasy. They didn't arrange for the men in the post house to kill their wives. He only arranged one wave. His goal was to delay Mu Ruqing. Who was the one who sent the other wave to hold Lord Mayor back?

And why did it involve Duke Ling's Mansion? They wanted to frame the Duke of Ling? But Duke Ling's Mansion was heavily guarded, how could it be so easy to enter?

Then why did they have to search? Did he want to use the Praetorian Guard to let him in? This was even more impossible, Commander of Praetorian Guard was his own man. Yu Longzi thought for a long time, but he still had no idea what was going on.

"Royal Father, this son wants to see the injuries of King Chu and the others." Yu Longzi got up and said to the Emperor. The Emperor lowered his head and went to the room next to him.

In the room, there were a few palace maids and guards guarding the door. Only Mu Ruqing was sitting there sober. Seeing Yu Longzi, she only glanced at him and ignored him.

"You chose the wrong person back then." Yu Longzi made the people at the door take a few steps back. After making sure that they did not hear their conversation, he said it.

"If Eldest Prince is here to express his condolences, please tell him. If not, go out and turn left. Thank you." Mu Ruqing's eyes did not stop on Yu Longzi for a second. There was only disdain in her tone.

"No need to thank me. Anyway, I will not leave." Yu Longzi took the opportunity to sit on the chair behind Mu Ruqing. He looked at her back and touched his fingers. "Can you still live?"

"I am afraid that I will disappoint Eldest Prince. My husband lives better than you."

"Haha, his temper is still the same."

"No matter what, this princess will lose face with you. This princess does not know what kind of mood Eldest Prince used to appear here."

"You already know about it, why do you still ask?" Yu Longzi moved a little and pulled the wound on his waist. The smile on his face froze.

"Heh, Eldest Prince hasn't recovered yet. It's better not to let the cold wind blow. Otherwise, if he goes like this one day, it will be really scary." Mu Ruqing wanted to see the painful expression on his face, so she glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. There were no unnecessary feelings.

Yu Longzi gritted his teeth. What an ungrateful woman. Wasn't it because of her that he was hurt?

"Ai, I didn't know that Eldest Prince liked to use such a dirty method." Yu Longchen's words startled both of them.

Mu Ruqing saw that he had woken up, so she didn't care about anything else. She immediately carried him and hugged him, wishing she could give him a few kisses right away.

Yu Longchen had a doting smile on his face. He hurt Mu Ruqing until her bones were bleeding. He hugged her waist and gently caressed her head.

This scene made Yu Longzi's heart ache and he felt a strong jealousy. He looked coldly at the two of them and did not say anything.

He suddenly remembered that there was still someone in the room, and wanted to let go of Yu Longchen. Yu Longchen's hand only lost a little strength, so he hugged her a little tighter. His magnetic voice was coquettish, "Let's hug again. Don't worry about the others. You are mine. "

"What a romantic couple." Yu Longzi couldn't bear it any longer. His tone was sour.

"If I were brother Eldest Prince. I wouldn't have wasted my time here." Yu Longchen raised his brows, his eyes filled with ridicule, "Since you already know my whereabouts, why didn't you prepare yourself? Brother Eldest Prince has already passed his naive age. Do you think that a little bit of fire can burn me down?"

"What's the matter? People should know their own position. I would like to see how you are going to force me into Duke Ling's Mansion."

"Sure." Yu Longchen revealed a happy smile, like a child who had received candy.

The more Yu Longzi looked at his smile, the more uncomfortable he felt.
