Chapter 1338: Concubine Xi's night trial of Li Yang!
Although Concubine Xi has been treating him well recently, the secret passage is very involved. Once Hei Yi is found, he will definitely be killed.
Li Yang understands this very well.
Danger came again, and he stood in the house, unable to sit on anything.
He rashly went out to stop her, which aroused Concubine Xi's suspicion, and it was impossible to stop her! If you didn't stop him, the black clothes were inside. The situation was urgent just now, so he just put the black clothes on the sink. It was very eye-catching, so there was no need to look for it.
You can see it when you go in.
The maid Haitang followed and said, "My queen, the public restroom is dirty, you should go back to your bedroom."
After Xiaocui left, Haitang was promoted to chief maid.
This Haitang has not been in the palace for a long time, but she is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is highly appreciated by Concubine Xi.
"It's okay, I'll go in and take a look."
After Yang Huanhuan finished speaking, people had already entered.
In fact, the public toilet is not dirty. It has floors and wall tiles. It is very clean and tidy, with a simple structure. It is clear at a glance. After Yang Huanhuan took a glance and found nothing, he opened the doors one by one and looked around.
, but in the end still found nothing.
No?
Am I thinking too much?
Yang Huanhuan murmured that although she didn't find the clothes, she was still suspicious of Li Yang. Among the slaves who followed her in and out of the Seven Buddha Rooms, except Li Yang, she really couldn't think of anyone who could have such a discerning eye.
She had already experienced Li Yang's insight and reasoning ability in previous surveillance incidents.
Back in the room, Yang Huanhuan was sitting upright, with a cold face, showing no anger or authority.
"Kneel down."
Yang Huanhuan said coldly.
Li Yang knelt down, feeling solemn in his heart. He felt that Concubine Xi was definitely going to fall out with him. It was not that he had no ability to protect himself. He was still sure of escaping from the palace, but leaving Zhou Xue alone in the palace, he was really worried.
Can't rest assured.
"I'll give you one last chance to tell the truth."
Yang Huanhuan said indifferently.
To confess or not to confess?
Li Yang thought for a while and decided to explain. After all, it was impossible to fool him, so there might be some room for explanation. He raised his head and was about to speak, but found that Yang Huanhuan's face was too calm, which made him hesitate again.
Didn't he realize that Yang Huan was so deep in Huancheng Mansion that he could keep his emotions and anger intangible, and wouldn't he feel nervous at all if the secret passage was leaked?
"Your Majesty, please clarify what you want me to explain?"
Li Yang changed his attention and said in surprise.
"You are still pretending to be confused with me. You are the black-clothed assassin who alarmed the imperial army tonight and made the palace restless."
Yang Huanhuan's eyes were cold and sharp, like a sharp sword that could see through people.
"Haha, my dear, your joke is too big. You don't know what I did. I can't even defeat the young Zhentianhu. How can I escape the roundup of the Forbidden Army?"
"I heard that Yu Huai, the commander of the Forbidden Army, personally led a team. I chased him for half a night but I still couldn't catch him. The leader is a peak Martial Lord, so the assassin must be at least a Martial Lord!"
"Do you think I look like Lord Wu? If I were really Lord Wu, could I still be a eunuch in the palace?
I am twenty-three years old this year, have you ever heard of such a young Martial Lord?"
Li Yang tried his best to defend himself and distance himself from the relationship.
Yang Huanhuan was speechless. It was true that she had never heard of a twenty-three-year-old Martial Lord Realm expert, nor had she ever heard of such a person in the entire Tianwu Continent's hundreds of years of history. However, she still felt that it was necessary to continue the investigation.
"Don't tell me this. I found the black clothes in the palace. The evidence is conclusive and I won't tolerate your quibbles!"
"My dear, I am really not an assassin."
Li Yang was panicked on the surface, but he was calm in his heart. As soon as Yang Huanhuan spoke, Li Yang was sure that he was just deceiving him. If she really found the black clothes, she would directly name the public toilet, and there was no way she would yell at the palace.
found.
"You can't pass the test if you are tough. You said you are not an assassin, so let me ask you, why are you going to the public toilet when you don't use the bathroom in your room in the middle of the night?"
Yang Huanhuan said coldly. Seeing that Li Yang remained silent, he smiled, "What's the matter? I can't continue editing?"
Let me answer for you. When the Imperial Guards came to roll your name, you happened to run back by chance. When you saw the Imperial Guards discovering that you were not there and wanted to search your room, you hid your clothes in black and walked into the public toilet to refute the blame!"
Li Yang couldn't help but admire Yang Huanhuan. She was indeed a woman with experience in the palace, and her analysis was spot on.
"I go to a public restroom, not squat in a pit."
Li Yang replied.
"Hey, why don't you run over to eat?"
Yang Huanhuan sneered and scoffed.
"I went to find you a handkerchief. During dinner, I saw that you had lost your handkerchief and you were in a bad mood, so I became very anxious and couldn't fall asleep. As I was lying in bed, I suddenly remembered that you had been to the public house nearby after practicing sword practice in the morning.
bathroom."
As Li Yang spoke, he took out a white handkerchief with a phoenix embroidered on it from his pocket. He actually stole this handkerchief in order to have a backup plan. If Concubine Xi found out that he was not there and asked about it, he would be safe.
A response.
Yang Huanhuan stood up, walked over, grabbed the handkerchief, and looked carefully, she found that it was really her who lost it. This handkerchief was given to her late mother and had been with her for many years, so it was very commemorative.
She put the handkerchief in her arms and looked down at Li Yang, her eyes still filled with suspicion. Although Li Yang's answers were accurate, she always felt that there was something wrong with Li Yang.
"Your Majesty, the Forbidden Army has sent word that the harem is safe. The assassin was desperate and set himself on fire. You can rest assured."
Haitang whispered softly outside.
"I know, get down."
Hearing this, Yang Huanhuan completely dispelled her doubts about Li Yang, "Li Yang, please get up. You are still thinking about finding a handkerchief for me in the middle of the night. This kindness warms my heart. This handkerchief is very important to me. Thank you."
you!"
The expression is relaxed and the eyes are soft.
"Your Majesty, your heart is warm, but mine is cold. If the assassin is not dead, I will have to be executed by you, right?"
Li Yang stood up and said with some resentment.
"I know you have been wronged, and I apologize to you."
"I'll ask Haitang to send some tribute cakes to your room later. I'm not even willing to eat them, so I'll give them to you."
"I will treat you well in the future and treat you as one of my own."
Yang Huanhuan felt she was wronged and comforted him with good words. Of course, it was because she had a good impression of Li Yang and had already admired him. If it were another slave, she would have been wronged if she was wronged, so she didn't bother to waste her words.
However, admiration comes with admiration, and she has never planned to have anything to do with Li Yang. After all, she is already married and is a royal concubine! "Thank you, empress. I will take my leave."
Li Yang bowed and exited. When he got out of the door, he couldn't help but scratch his head. What the hell is going on? The black clothes are on the sink. Is Concubine Xi blind? Besides, what a coincidence there is in the palace.
Unfortunately, another assassin appeared, clearing his suspicion.
