"I see." How could Nangong Baiye, as smart as he was, not understand the emperor's words? He was clearly reminding himself of the gap between himself and Beiming Liancheng.
Ha, Nangong Baiye raised his lips and smiled, but the corners of his mouth were careless.
The emperor withdrew his gaze from her: "You go down first and investigate the Ming Coin matter carefully. If you do well, I will reward you heavily."
"yes."
After coming out of the Imperial Study Room, Nangong Baiye stretched out lazily, her forehead was still a little hot, but that did not affect her thinking.
Is there a gap?
I always seemed to hear similar words when I was a kid.
My mother ran away with someone, and my father was a heavy drinker.
It's hard to tell now, but she is actually a mixed race.
Oh no, it’s not so much a mixed race, it’s more like a...mongrel?
hehe.
Bai Ye had also thought countless times that if it weren't for Mr. Tang, she would have died like the stinky mud on the ground in Chinatown, America.
However, this world will never save people who only have low self-esteem and self-pity.
If you want to gain something, you must lose something else.
But even so, she still grabbed the thread called depravity and exchanged her endless life of darkness for superior wealth.
So, the gap and so on... are really meaningless.
It would be better to just give her ten boxes of gold and let her leave.
Nangong Baiye shook his head: "This emperor is so incompetent!"
"Haha..." A low and gentle smile rang in her ears. Bei Mingxun stood behind her, with obvious amusement on his handsome face: "You have been standing here for a long time, just thinking about how to slander my father."
Emperor?"
Nangong Baiye curled his thin lips, and was polite and thoughtful, but with a careless and ruffian air: "Your Highness, Jin An."
Bei Mingxun looked at her with a smile, suddenly stretched out his hand, and touched her forehead with his slender fingertips.
Nangong Baiye was stunned for a moment, then heard him say in a heavy coughing voice: "The wind and cold are so serious, why don't you call the imperial doctor?"
"I'm planning to look for it." Nangong Baiye smiled with his lips raised, his dimples exposed, and he didn't avoid Bei Mingxun's movements. He just raised his finger, and there was a yellow talisman between his fingers: "Your Highness, you know this man?"
Talisman? Where can I buy such talisman paper in the capital?"
Bei Mingxun took it and looked at it briefly: "This kind of talisman is only available in Nangongyuan."
It's Nangong Yuan again... Nangong Baiye frowned and looked at the talisman in his hand with a deep look.
Bei Mingxun chuckled: "What? Is this talisman related to the case?"
"Your Highness." Nangong Baiye did not answer. Instead, he told him something else: "I suspect that the murderer is probably someone from the palace."
Bei Mingxun's handsome thick eyebrows furrowed, and he coughed heavily, with the scent of medicine coming out of his lips and teeth.
"So, I can't tell His Highness about the case yet." Nangong Baiye continued with a smile: "After all, before the truth of the matter is found out, anyone in the palace may be the murderer."
Bei Mingxun laughed, handsome and elegant: "Forget about the case, what did my father talk to you about just now?"
Nangong Baiye looked at the man walking beside him and said in a lazy voice: "To put it simply, you are warning me, a woman with a son, not to dream of flying up a branch and becoming a phoenix."
"You always talk like this..." Bei Mingxun paused, as if thinking of adjectives.
Nangong Baiye smiled and rolled his eyes: "Rough? No way, this is one of the few advantages."
"Haha." As if he was amused by her, Bei Mingxun coughed a few times before saying, "It's not rough, it's interesting."
Huh? Nangong Baiye raised his head and met those smiling and gentle eyes. Such eyes were very clean and clear, as if they could soften everything in the world.
However, Nangong Baiye smiled unmoved: "Your Highness Xie San, please enjoy it. I will walk the rest of the way back by myself. A little further past is Mingfeng Tower. Let the beautiful ladies see it, and there will be another round of rumors."
, it’s too strenuous.”
"Okay." Bei Mingxun stopped with a smile. A pure white robe was draped around his body, with pure black fur at the collar. He had a face with sharp edges, as gentle as jade, unparalleled in the world.
He looked at the slender figure walking in front of him, and his bright eyes gradually darkened.
After a few more heavy coughs, Bei Mingxun stood there for a while, then turned around and walked towards his palace...
…
It was a gloomy day and it started to snow.
The entire palace was shrouded in it, giving it a somewhat gloomy look.
"Master, that thing is not in the Liang family." The warrior in black whispered in Nie Lao's ear: "This time the direction seems to be wrong."
Nie Lao supported his crutches and slowly turned the prayer beads on his wrist: "It's not wrong. If that thing hadn't been in the Liang family, Liang Yuanyuan would not have died. That guy Jiang Xin wanted to monopolize it behind my back. Now Liang Yongsheng is there again."
They want to use it to make a fortune, but they don't know that not everyone can shake the things in that cemetery! Keep checking, and be quiet."
"Yes!" The warrior bowed his head respectfully.
Nie Lao pinched the tiger's head on his crutch: "The corpses brought from Persia are still missing?"
The samurai lowered his head a little further: "My subordinates were not doing well. Halfway through the investigation, the clue suddenly stopped, but what is certain is that the corpses are in the capital!"
"Okay." Mr. Nie looked around and waved: "Please step aside first, I'm going to see the emperor. Remember, if you find those corpses, don't uncover the yellow talismans on them."
"Yes!" The warrior lowered his eyes and immediately hid his figure when he saw Eunuch Sun approaching.
Before Eunuch Sun came near, he laughed loudly: "Mr. Nie has not been in the palace for some days. The emperor was still talking about you yesterday."
Mr. Nie smiled and asked, "Is the Emperor worried about His Highness's selection of a concubine again?"
"Isn't that true?" Eunuch Sun lowered his voice and sighed: "It was rare for His Highness the Seventh Prince to show up this year, but a beautiful girl died. Now everyone is talking about it, and the Emperor doesn't even want to listen.
I'm happy, and His Highness Seventh Prince seems to be too attentive to Miss Third. Nie Lao went in a while ago. If the Emperor said anything, don't take it to heart. Your Majesty, he is a little tired during this time."
Nie Lao stopped walking, his eyes were old but shrewd and sharp, making people shudder: "Eunuch Sun..."
"I'm here, old slave." Eunuch Sun was still smiling.
Nie Lao leaned on the crutch in his hand: "If the emperor specially asked you to say this to the old minister, you can tell the emperor that I, Nangongyuan, will not admit a girl who has not learned etiquette and shame well, and has never
What kind of third lady is this?"
Eunuch Sun was somewhat incredulous when he heard this.
Mr. Nie turned his head, his eyes bright: "Eunuch Sun, does he understand what I mean?"
"I understand, of course I understand." Eunuch Sun couldn't help but nodded.
Old Nie drooped his long sleeves and a piece of silver fell into his palm: "The concubine selection ceremony is not over yet. It's so unfair. I hope Eunuch Sun will take care of my two granddaughters."
"Don't worry, Mr. Nie. The Fourth Miss and the Seventh Miss, one is as beautiful as a flower, the other is romantic and innocent. They will both be extremely valuable people in the future. I will definitely take good care of them and not dare to neglect them." Eunuch Sun agreed with a smile on his face.
The two of them were chatting while walking towards the south study room.
When Mr. Nirvana entered the palace, Eunuch Sun shook his head. He didn't expect that this Taoist would disown all his relatives once he got involved in profit.
Thinking about it, Eunuch Sun took the ingot and touched it, and he changed back to his cheerful look.
"It seems that Eunuch Sun has gained quite a lot today." A cold and magnetic voice sounded in the air, making him tremble and the ingot almost fell to the ground.
"Seven, Your Highness Seven!" Eunuch Sun felt that the sweat on his forehead was about to overflow. When did this master appear? Why didn't he even make a sound?
Beiming Liancheng walked over, his ascetic black robe half-opened, his mouth half-curved, his cold eyes, without saying another word.
But Eunuch Sun was so frightened that he knelt there on the spot, and did not dare to have any thoughts of helping Mr. Nie.
His Highness never likes others to interfere in his own affairs, let alone this selection of a concubine...
"Xiao Xizi."
"Disciple is here. Master, do you have something to tell me?"
"Go to Fengming Tower and deliver some heaters to the courtyard where Miss Bai Ye lives. There is no need to say anything else, and don't mention it to the other ladies."
"yes!"
After Eunuch Sun finished instructing his young apprentice, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead from where he stood. His Seventh Prince was really getting more and more scary every time, phew...
…
The sky is getting a bit gloomier again, and even if it is not bright, it will make people see the light.
Nangong Baiye stood in the room where Liang Yuanyuan lived before his death, his eyes swept over the furnishings in the room, and his eyebrows furrowed.
Where does such great resentment come from?
Logically speaking, Liang Yuanyuan is already dead, and even her soul has been taken away by herself.
There shouldn't be so much resentment in this room.
Is there something else here?
Nangong Baiye's eyes flashed and he walked towards the carved wooden bed in the back room.
Liang Yuanyuan's maid was following her, with a dazed look on her face, as if she couldn't believe that her young lady had died like this.
Nangong Baiye opened the quilt and smiled with thin lips.
The maid rushed over and stopped her: "Here, what are you doing here, young lady? You said you are the young lady's friend, but I have never seen you."
Nangong Baiye looked back with sadness in his expression: "She and I only met after entering the palace. I didn't expect that she would pass away just after we became sisters..."
The maid looked at her with less vigilance in her eyes.
Nangong Baiye lied without blinking: "She told me that she hasn't slept well these days, and she asked me to stay with her tonight. Alas... things are really unpredictable." As she said that, she put her eyes on
He touched the yellow charm on the bed, and his pupils tightened: "Little girl, do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
The maid seemed startled by such a question. She took half a step back in panic, then raised her eyes with an indescribable light: "I believe it."
At this moment, there was a harsh knock on the door.
