After the black shadow finished speaking, he immediately jumped out of the window.

When Mo Chenyuan came back from Xu's house, he didn't say a word. Su Shengsheng just stayed by his side and didn't say anything either.

Beijing.

As soon as Mo Chenxuan returned to the hall, he saw something new on the table. He walked over quickly and found it was a letter with no signature on it.

"Su Mingpei!" Mo Chenxuan shouted outside.

Su Mingpei walked in immediately after hearing the voice, "Your Majesty!"

“Who came here today?”

"Your Majesty, no one has come."

Mo Chenxuan stared at the letter on the table, and then said coldly: "Go down."

"Yes." Su Mingpei bowed slightly and walked out.

Mo Chenxuan sat down slowly, thought for a moment and then opened the letter.

The letter in Mo Chenxuan's hand was exactly the letter that Murong Ye asked the black shadow to deliver.

After reading the letter, Mo Chenxuan's face darkened. He thought that it was impossible for anyone else to know about this matter, but he didn't expect that Mo Chenyuan had been investigating it.

He held the letter tightly in his hand and threw it aside. He had to get rid of Mo Chenyuan as soon as possible, otherwise his life might be in danger. *

Mo Jingxuan also traced all the way to Ancheng. As soon as he entered the city, he heard the tragic news that the Xu family was destroyed, so he rushed to Mo Chenyuan without stopping.

Arriving at the gate of the villa, Mo Jingxuan quickly jumped off his horse, handed the rope to the guard next to him and ran in.

"Uncle, uncle." Mo Jingxuan shouted all the way into the front hall.

When Su Shengsheng heard Mo Jingxuan's voice, she walked towards the door. The two bumped into each other and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Aunt, I heard the news of the Xu family's demise as soon as I entered Ancheng. I knew that my uncle was in Ancheng, so I rushed to see him."

Mo Chenyuan had regained his composure at this time, and said in a cold voice: "If Xu Zhoushan makes any mistakes, your Shura Hall will not exist."

As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow appeared and answered respectfully: "Yes." Then it disappeared.

Su Shengsheng stepped aside, and Mo Jingxuan walked in quickly. "Uncle, have you found out something?"

Mo Chenyuan didn't say anything, he looked at Mo Jingxuan and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Mo Jingxuan took out half a jade pendant from his arms and said, "This was given to me by a retired soldier in the south."

Mo Chenyuan looked over and the hazy memories in his mind suddenly became clear. The jade pendant in Mo Jingxuan's hand was exactly the half jade pendant on the Wangyue Cliff.

"How did he get the jade pendant?" Mo Chenyuan asked.

Mo Jingxuan handed the jade pendant to Mo Chenyuan and said, "This jade pendant is obviously something that only people from wealthy families can wear. That person said he found it among the corpses on the Moon-Watching Cliff."

"After some inquiries, I found out that this jade pendant belongs to the Xu family, so I came to Ancheng."

Mo Chenyuan stroked the jade pendant in his hand, then looked at Mo Jingxuan, "You don't need to interfere in this matter." After saying that, he placed the jade pendant on the table.

Mo Jingxuan frowned slightly, "Uncle, we are getting closer and closer to the truth. Please let me investigate further."

"Take him away." Mo Chenyuan's voice sounded majestically.

Then two guards came out to invite Mo Jingxuan.

Mo Jingxuan wanted to say something, but was stopped by Su Shengsheng, "You go down first."

Mo Jingxuan wanted to say something but stopped himself, knowing that his uncle would not listen to anything he said now, so he nodded and followed him out.

After Mo Jingxuan left, Su Shengsheng walked towards Mo Chenyuan, "My Lord, you..."

Before she could finish her words, Mo Chenyuan grabbed her and said in a deep voice, "I'm fine."

Su Shengsheng swallowed back the words of concern that came to her lips, "I'm glad you're okay."

Mo Chenyuan closed his eyes, but his mind was thinking about what to do next. Now all the answers lie with Xu Zhoushan. As long as he is found, the answers will be revealed.

In the next few days, Mo Jingxuan was sent back to the capital by Mo Chenyuan, and Ling Su had been tracking down Xu Zhoushan. Several times when he was about to find Xu Zhoushan, he was ruined by Murong Ye's people.

Neither side was able to find Xu Zhoushan, and the two sides remained in a stalemate.

After Ling Yu Yi Liu left, he smiled less often. When he had nothing to do, he would sit quietly under the tree, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Mo Chenyuan has been staying at home these days and has not conducted any investigation privately. After Mo Chenxuan heard about this, he symbolically sent someone to help Mo Chenyuan.

Yi Wan's mood has stabilized in the past few days, and he reported to Su Shengsheng early this morning who had just finished breakfast.

"Princess, the people sent by His Majesty to assist the prince have arrived."

"Where is the prince?"

"Just went out."

Su Shengsheng put down the teacup in her hand and said, "Then let him in."

"Yes."

After Yi Wan respectfully withdrew, Luo Yi walked in soon after.

"I will finally meet the princess."

Su Shengsheng raised her eyes and looked over. "It turned out to be General Luo."

Luo Yi nodded and said, "I am here to assist the prince in accordance with the order of His Majesty."

"It seems that the poison in General Luo has been cured." Su Shengsheng said with a smile.

Luo Yi rolled his eyes inwardly. He wasn't poisoned at all, okay?

But he still said respectfully: "Thank you, Princess, for your concern."

Su Shengsheng didn't have much to say to Luo Yi, so she said directly: "The prince is out. If there is anything, I will see you. You can leave first."

"Yes."

Luo Yi came out of the courtyard, and Li Tan beside him whispered: "General, that man is also in Ancheng."

Luo Yi was not surprised. He knew that the man was in Ancheng, so he volunteered to come to Ancheng to help the Regent investigate what happened a year ago.

After Li Tan whispered a few words in Luo Yi's ear, Luo Yi said, "You go back first."

"Yes."

After Li Tan left, Luo Yi walked slowly on the street. He walked for a long time, and only after making sure that there was no one following him did he quickly slip into an alley on the side.

Tea House.

Most of the people inside were scholars and literati who gathered together to appreciate poetry and drink tea. When Luo Yi came in, he saw the gurgling stream in the middle, which was quite unique.

I thought to myself, he really knows how to choose a place.

After Luo Yi went up to the second floor, someone came to greet him, "Sir, this way."

Luo Yi nodded and walked towards the room that the man pointed to.

The door was gently pushed open, Luo Yi walked in, and Murong Ye was sitting there making tea.

When Luo Yi saw the person sitting there, he frowned and asked, "Is it you?"

Murong Ye put down the teapot and said with a smile: "General Luo, sit down."

Luo Yi walked over without hesitation and sat down opposite Murong Ye.

"That Mr. Bai is your man?"

Murong Ye poured Luo Yi a cup of tea and asked, "General Luo, why are you so surprised? Didn't you send people to investigate Bai Ying while you were claiming to be sick?"

Luo Yi felt embarrassed after hearing this, and then realized something was wrong, so he frowned and looked at Murong Ye, "You've been sending people to follow me?"

"General Luo, why do you have to say such harsh words? It was just that my people happened to come across them."

"Humph." Luo Yi looked at Murong Ye fiercely, "What have you found out?"

Murong Ye still smiled and said: "Nothing, I just happened to find out something about Concubine Wen."

"Bang!" Luo Yi slammed his hand on the table and stared at Murong Ye with murderous eyes.

Murong Ye said softly: "You can't kill me."

Luo Yi immediately clenched his fists. He really couldn't kill the man in front of him. Then he angrily asked: "What do you want to do?"
