With Xiao Ziluo by his side, Mu Yan was able to leave the palace unimpeded and hurried back to Zuiyun Tower. Mu Yan saw the surprised look in Dawa's eyes when he looked at him and quickly walked over.
, asked softly: "Brother Qi, are you and the others here?"
Shaking his head in confusion, Da Wa cautiously glanced at Xiao Ziluo behind Mu Yan, and said defensively: "I just went out, I don't know when I will be back."
Nodding silently, Mu Yan was about to walk out the door. When he reached the door, he stopped as if he remembered something, and looked back at Da Wa, who was still standing there with a defensive look on his face.
, ordered: "If they come back, tell them to go to Brother Ping to find me."
He and Xiao Ziluo walked non-stop towards the mansion located on the edge of the capital. As soon as Mu Yan approached, he found Huan Yinfeng and Ling Hongran guarding the door with gloomy expressions. They remembered that these two people were ordinary people.
The confidants around me, since they are here, should Pingfan be here too?
Deliberately slowing down his pace, Mu Yan coughed softly. Then under the hot gazes of Huan Yinfeng and the other two, Mu Yan walked over with a smile and entered the courtyard with a calm expression, while Xiao Ziluo said nothing.
He followed her closely, watching her whereabouts all the time.
Slowly walking into the spacious backyard, as soon as Mu Yan appeared, Xiao Bai rushed towards him and almost fell to the ground.
"You beast..." Helplessly dodging Xiaobai's approach, Mu Yan smiled bitterly and played with it for a while, then squatted down, patted Xiaobai's soft hair comfortingly, then raised his head and looked at
Mu Yan stood up with a smile because of the other people who came out after hearing Xiaobai's restless voice.
"Yan'er" called Mu Yan's name, Leng Yan'er walked to Mu Yan's side anxiously, looked into Mu Yan's smiling eyes, and asked uneasily: "Where have you been these days?
Hei Chu and I have searched almost all over the capital, but there is no trace of you."
"I'm just under house arrest," he mocked himself with a sneer. Mu Yan cast a meaningful glance at Xiao Ziluo beside him, then glanced at Pingfan Ruizhu and the others and said softly: "Brother Ping, I'll find you later.
I have something to do. You are waiting for me, Yan'er, in the study. You and I come into the room. I have something to ask you."
Walking into the room with Mu Yan, Leng Yan'er looked around. Xiao Ziluo, whom she had been caring about since the beginning, frowned. Leng Yan'er asked coldly: "Yan'er, he
yes?"
"The person sent by the emperor to monitor me" unabashedly revealed Xiao Ziluo's identity. Mu Yan chuckled and sat down at the table, unscrupulously discussing the past few days with Leng Yaner. "I'm not here here."
Has there been any progress in the past few days?"
"This..." Listening to Mu Yan's question, the expression on Leng Yan'er's face began to change. Her eyes flickered and she lowered her head. After being silent for a long time, Leng Yan'er finally plucked up the courage to speak to Mu Yan.
"The three men of Feng Xiaoling were assassinated"
"What?!" Mu Yan was startled, and looked at Leng Yan'er in disbelief. Seeing the expression on Leng Yan'er's face that didn't look like he was joking, Mu Yan slowly came back to his senses, "When?
matter"
"On the night you disappeared"
He was killed...was it the work of a traitor?
Turning his head, Mu Yan silently looked at Xiao Ziluo with a scrutinizing gaze. He understood what Mu Yan was suspecting. Xiao Ziluo shook his head proactively and said, "If the Emperor really wants to kill someone who is not ours,
, I have already started, there is no need to wait until now.”
With a cold snort, Mu Yan retracted his gaze from Xiao Ziluo and continued to ask Leng Yan'er what happened, "Who was keeping watch that night?"
"Lingyin and Yaxuan, they are still lying on the bed now. According to their memories, there were three assassins that night who acted at the same time to kill three men in different rooms. The weather is so hot now, and the corpses
We can't keep you, we don't know when you will come back, so we have to deal with it in advance." She confided to Mu Yan in a low tone. Leng Yan'er's expression revealed anger and uneasiness, "This matter must be related to the mole.
Otherwise, how could the killer know the location of the three of them so clearly?"
Why did they kill Feng Xiaoling's three men but didn't touch Feng Xiaoling?
Closing his eyes, Mu Yan thought hard about this matter. The night he disappeared, he spent it in Xia Yifeng's palace. Xia Yifeng spent most of that day with him, although he also went out for a while at night.
, but if he really wanted to take action that day, the target should be Murong Zixuan. Mu Yan has not forgotten that Xia Yifeng's gloomy expression and eyes because of Murong Zixuan that day
Could it be said that it was Murong Zixuan who did it?
Calmly clenching his fist, Mu Yan no longer mentioned the matter and just comforted Leng Yan'er softly, "He's a useless cripple anyway, so I might as well kill him." Then he asked about Yin Mengyuan's condition.
After knowing that Yin Mengyuan was still as crazy as ever, Mu Yan stood up and met Xiao Ziluo's eyes.
Standing there quietly, Mu Yan watched Xiao Ziluo's time passing by without saying a word. Just when Xiao Ziluo was already feeling uncomfortable being stared at by Mu Yan, Mu Yan finally spoke, "I
I want to bring two people into the palace, I wonder if Sir Xiao can allow it?"
Mu Yan's address to him made Xiao Ziluo's mouth twitch and he lowered his eyes to think. Xiao Ziluo responded: "The emperor only asked me to protect the empress, and did not ask for other things. If the empress really wants to take care of me,
When people return to the palace, Ziluo has nothing to say."
"Okay, your words are enough." Mu Yan nodded with satisfaction and smiled. He told Leng Yaner to pack his things and wait for Qi Heichu to come back and enter the palace with him.
Mu Yan didn't know how long she would stay in the palace, nor when she would be able to find out the truth of the matter. Just looking at the current development of things, Xia Yifeng had no intention of allowing herself to leave the palace, so Mu Yan could only move her position from here.
Moving to the huge palace, although it seems to be calm now, Mu Yan has already vaguely seen the uneasiness in the future.
Although Xia Yifeng has ascended the throne now, what about the other descendants of the late emperor? Mu Yan would not be so stupid as to think that Xia Yuanfeng only has two sons, Xia Yifeng and Xia Mingyi. The more docile things look at them, the more ferocious they are usually, and the ones with horns are
They don’t eat meat. This is something Mu Yan has known for a long time. If there is chaos in the palace, the first thing Mu Yan has to do is to keep himself and his two children safe, so he brings a few more trustworthy people around him.
He is not a bad person. If he really wants to investigate Murong Zixuan, Mu Yan must obtain Xia Yifeng's permission before he can leave the palace. It would be too time-consuming if he had to discuss it with Leng Yan'er and the others every time he came out of the palace.
Got it
"Yan'er, I'm going to discuss some things with Pingfan. You can take care of things first." He walked towards the door. Mu Yan suddenly turned his head, looked at Xiao Ziluo seriously and said, "As for Yin Mengyuan, we'll take him with us too."
When I get back, I think it’s almost time for Xia Yifeng to use her?!"
