Chapter 184: Forced questioning

When Qin Yong asked who died, Yang Lian had no reaction.

Mou Bin, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, smiled faintly, and then said, "Master Qin is familiar with this person."

Qin Yong's eyes shrank as soon as he heard that he was familiar with him.

There is no one he is familiar with in the palace. If he had to say someone he was familiar with, it would be the Taoist priest Ao Yezi who entered the palace a few days ago.

Could it be that the Taoist priest died?

Thinking of this, Qin Yong felt even more uneasy, and even felt some regret.

Why did I become so obsessed with it in the first place? Why did I have to send that Taoist priest to the palace?

Although he was worried in his heart, things have come to him. Since there is no way to hide away and there is no choice to hide, he can only face the difficulties. Qin Yong directly asked: "But Taoist Priest Qingye?"

Mou Bin glanced at Qin Yong, nodded gently, and said directly: "It is indeed Taoist Priest Qing Yezi who is dead."

Although he had already thought of it in his heart, Qin Yong was still shocked after confirming the news.

Aoba is really dead, why is it like this? Will it implicate himself?

Qin Yong's first thought was this.

You must know that the death of someone in the palace is not a big deal. But if the person you sent in dies, then it is a big deal. The key question depends on how he died.

Qin Yong raised his head and asked cautiously: "How did you die?"

"I had a heart attack last night, and when I woke up in the morning, I was gone." Mou Bin didn't hide anything, and directly told the cause of Qing Yezi's death.

Hearing Mou Bin's words, Qin Yong breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be fine if you die of illness. If you die in a strange way, or if you do something bad and are sentenced to death by His Majesty, then you will really be wronged.

"So that's it." Qin Yong said, his tone much more relaxed, "Then I wonder what Master Mou wants from me?"

Mou Bin glanced at Qin Yong and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is kind and thinks that Qing Yezi is doing errands for the palace. If this person dies, we can't just find a place to bury him. He must be sent back to his hometown no matter what."

Burial is like a fallen leaf returning to its roots."

"Your Majesty will leave this matter to His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince hopes that we will find out where this Qing Yezi's home is and also send the body back for burial."

"If this Qing Yezi has no family, then he must also find the Taoist temple where he lives. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intends to rebuild the Taoist temple for them in order to reward Qing Zi. This Qing Yezi was presented to the palace by Mr. Qin, so let's ask Mr. Qin

Do you know where Qingye’s family is? Where is the Taoist temple where he became a monk?”

Hearing Mou Bin's question, Qin Yong breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that this was what happened.

Smiling, Qin Yong said: "Your Majesty is benevolent and His Royal Highness is benevolent and filial. This is the blessing for us ministers."

After Qin Yong was out of crisis, he naturally thought of flattering.

After these two people go back, His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely ask about it, and his flattering words will reach His Highness the Crown Prince's ears. Now among the civil servants who want to go further, no one does not want to curry favor with His Highness the Crown Prince.

Look at the people who follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Qi You has already become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Liu Qi is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Shen Lu, the Minister of General Affairs, is also a high-ranking official.

If you can become the prince's subordinate, it will not only be in the future, but also now.

Neither Yang Lian nor Mou Bin commented on Qin Yong's flattering behavior.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very unhappy about what happened this time, and it was too late to flatter him now.

Even if the matter is finally found out and nothing happened to Mr. Qin, the two of them estimate that His Highness the Crown Prince will not give him a good look, and they might find an opportunity to get rid of him.

Being able to escape unscathed without being punished is already the best outcome for Mr. Qin.

Naturally, the two of them would not expose this matter at this time, nor would they remind Qin Yong.

My relationship with him is not good, so there is no need to go through this muddy water.

Besides, if His Highness the Crown Prince knows that he is doing something small, he will be the one who dies.

Mou Bin looked at Qin Yong and saw that he still wanted to flatter him, so he interrupted him directly, "Master Qin, please tell me the origin of Taoist Priest Qing Ye."

Mou Bin looked at Qin Yong with burning eyes.

Qin Yong was a little embarrassed, obviously he didn't expect Mou Bin to be so rude, but he also knew that he couldn't afford to offend these two people now.

If they say anything bad to His Highness the Crown Prince after they return, not only will their flattery be in vain, but they will also make His Highness the Crown Prince dissatisfied with them.

"I am not very clear about this matter." Qin Yong said directly.

Hearing what Qin Yong said, Mou Bin's face immediately darkened, and he said in a low voice: "Master Qin, you dare to offer a Taoist priest of unknown origin to the palace. Isn't it inappropriate to do so?"

Mou Bin's words were quite polite.

This is not only inappropriate, it is simply too inappropriate. If we really want to pursue it, Qin Yong will definitely be miserable.

Mou Bin's words directly frightened Qin Yong.

He is worthy of being the commander of the Imperial Guard, and his ability to label him is truly first-class.

Qin Yong felt regretful in his heart. This time he really got caught. If he brought it to His Highness the Crown Prince, his future would really be over.

Thinking of this, Qin Yong quickly said: "Master Mou, this is not the case. I know that Qing Yezi is from Jiangxi and is a Taoist priest from the Longhu Mountain lineage in Jiangxi, but I don't know where his lay family is. This

This person was recommended to me by my butler, I think he knows where Qing Yezi’s home is."

Mou Bin and Yang Lian looked at each other. They had known about this for a long time, and it was not really new news.

They even found Zhang Sheng. The information about the housekeeper was given by Zhang Sheng, and that was not what they wanted to check.

After glancing at Qin Yong, Mou Bin continued to ask: "Master Qin, why did you bring Qing Yezi to the palace? Did you come up with it yourself, or did someone give you the idea?"

Qin Yong was stunned. He didn't expect Mou Bin to ask this question.

Qin Yong had already breathed a sigh of relief, but now he was breathing again, and it was directly in his throat.

He knew that Mou Bin was definitely not asking this question casually. Who knows what kind of trap is hidden here?

After thinking about it, Qin Yong quickly said: "I thought of it myself."

Mou Bin and Yang Lian looked at each other, with disbelief flashing across their faces. Judging from Qin Yong's performance just now, he definitely did not think of this matter.
