As for Xiao Yinhuan, ever since he blocked two swords for the emperor in Lingyin Temple and nearly lost his life, his relationship with Xiao Zheng has gradually become harmonious from the previous freezing point.

That day the emperor was going to Lingyin Temple to copy Buddhist scriptures and pray for blessings, and all security measures were done very carefully. He never expected that there would be an assassination along the way.

Moreover, the security work was done by Jiang Lie, the leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but Jiang Lie disappeared during the assassination.

After returning to the palace, the emperor was furious.

The Dali Temple took over the case and investigated.

This is beyond investigation.

When the emperor was assassinated, Jiang Lie actually went to meet the Northern Qiang people.

Moreover, among the captured assassins, there were also Northern Qiang people, and a crescent-shaped tattoo was found on the assassin’s arm.

Coincidentally, Jiang Lie also has a crescent-shaped tattoo on his arm, which is a unique totem of the Qiang royal guards.

When the emperor heard the report, he almost vomited blood. He immediately ordered people to search Jiang Lie's residence and found many secret communications between him and Bei Jiang.

Jiang Lie was suspected of being a Northern Qiang spy and was directly imprisoned in Zhaoyu. The emperor was about to order Jiang Lie to be executed that day, but Xiao Yinhuan took the opportunity to bring up the Dragon Cavalry Army.

"Father, Jiang Lie is a spy from the Northern Qiang. As far as I know, Jiang Lie was the one who passed on your secret order in the Dragon Cavalry case. If he had ulterior motives and falsely passed on the imperial order to frame our loyal officials of the Jin State, wouldn't General Su Ao and the Dragon Cavalry have died in vain at his hands?"

"Moreover, the imperial decree issued by your father was for him to lead the army to aid the Dragon Cavalry Army. However, the truth that I found out was that he used the name of aid to kill the Dragon Cavalry Army when they were not paying attention. I hope your father will see through this."

After saying that, Xiao Yinhuan looked at Xiao Zheng's expression, examining it inch by inch without missing a single detail.

As expected, Xiao Zheng was stunned and his expression looked a little unnatural.

After all, Dragon Cavalry is a taboo word, so Xiao Yinhuan didn't say much.

"I hope that Father will investigate thoroughly before executing Jiang Lie."

Xiao Zheng seemed to be lost in some memories. He hummed and asked Xiao Yinhuan to leave.

When Xiao Yinhuan came out, his face was terribly gloomy.

The matter of Jiang Lie was naturally a trap set by him to make Xiao Zheng recall the Dragon Cavalry Army and his uncle Su Ao.

And Xiao Zheng's expression just now was intriguing. Perhaps he wanted to kill the Su family from the very beginning.

And the secret order was indeed to kill the Dragon Riders, not any assistance.

Xiao Yinhuan was seriously injured and has been recuperating for more than a month. He is now in great shape and today is his first day to attend court.

God knows how he got through the past month.

He held the amulet given by Shen Yinong in his hand and looked at it every day. Even though he never believed in Buddhism, he hoped that a miracle would happen and send Shen Yinong back to him.

And every day in the palace, he would go to Shen Yinong's room to check on him, and every day he fantasized that Shen Yinong would suddenly appear in the room and say to him, "Xiao Yinhuan, I'm back."

But not every day.

Shen Yinong and her laughter never appeared in the palace again.

The days passed in agony.

He listened to her and took good care of his body, drinking thousand-year-old ginseng chicken soup. He also sent people to look for Shen Yinong, but to no avail.

The emperor was in a pleasant mood in the court.

Xiao Yinhuan also broke his usual habit and was courteous and polite.

The civil and military officials were trembling with fear. Prince Jing suddenly stopped causing trouble and his temperament changed so much, which really made people uneasy.

Is King Jing planning some big move?

Xiao Yue and Xiao Yu couldn't figure out what Xiao Yinhuan wanted to do, but after seeing Xiao Yinhuan block two swords for Xiao Zheng, the relationship between the two broke the ice, which was extremely disadvantageous to them.

Xiao Yinhuan began to compete with them for the position of crown prince.

It was obvious that he was extremely disdainful of this position at that time. If Xiao Yinhuan wanted to fight for it, they would never be able to win. This man was cunning, vicious, and elusive.

When leaving court, Xiao Yue looked at Xiao Yinhuan's back in the palace corridor with gloomy eyes.

Especially after he knew that Xiao Yinhuan was the one who destroyed the Qingshan Slave Arena, he was really angry.

After all, Shen Yinong almost became his person at that time, and the slave arena that he had painstakingly managed for so many years was destroyed by Xiao Yinhuan.

How could he be willing to do that?

He stood on the white jade steps with his hands behind his back, resting his hands on the round stool shaped like a lion's head, and narrowed his eyes. "Have you found the girl Xiao Yinhuan loves?"

"No." Yin Yue lowered her head. "I only know that the girl's surname is Shen, her name is Shen Yinong, she is extremely beautiful, a hibiscus beauty, but I can't even find out where she lives or the names of her parents."

"During this period of time, King Jing has been arranging for her to live in King Jing's mansion. Some time ago, when King Jing was injured, the girl went to the market to buy medicinal herbs and chicken to make medicinal meals and tonic soup for King Jing. It seems that Miss Shen has a good relationship with King Jing."

Xiao Yue's face was not looking good. "If we can't find a girl, what's the use of you?"

"It's really because the guards in Prince Jing's palace do a great job, and there are many experts around Prince Jing. He treats that girl like a precious eyeball. Every time that girl goes out, there are dozens of secret guards protecting her in the dark. Our people have no chance to get close to her and can only watch from afar. Moreover, all of Prince Jing's secret guards are very powerful."

beauty.

Xiao Yue’s favorite.

He suddenly remembered that the girl he fell in love with at the Qingzhou Colosseum was rescued by Xiao Yinhuan.

Could it be that the person Xiao Yinhuan cherishes is the same person he has a crush on?

Back then at the Qingzhou Slave Arena, Xiao Yinhuan went crazy and sent many experts to rescue the veiled girl from the python's mouth.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yue wanted to see Shen Yinong more and more.

As long as he sees the person, he can confirm whether the person in the Qingzhou slave field is Shen Yinong.

"Have you ever seen that girl?"

"I saw her from afar. She has fair skin and beautiful features. She is full of spirit and pure and innocent. She is stunning at first sight and can't be forgotten. She is very young and looks very sweet and well-behaved, soft and tender."

When Yin Yue saw that face, she stared at it for a long time.

There is a lotus pond in front of you.

The lotus leaves are just beginning to show their tips, and a few red carps are swimming happily in the pond.

Xiao Yue took some fish food and threw a few grains of it. "Xiao Yinhuan, who has never been close to women, spoke out loudly in the court for a girl. He even said something like killing all the nine clans. It must be that the girl is too outstanding and special, and he was moved. Such a wonderful person, I must see her face at all costs."

Red carps swarmed up to grab the food.

"Tsk, she can be hidden like a treasure by a heartless man like Xiao Yinhuan, and she can also make him fall in love with her. This Miss Shen is Xiao Yinhuan's weak spot."

Xiao Yue chuckled. He liked beauties, too.

"Go check. If you can catch the girl, arrest her."

"As ordered."

Just as Yin Yue was about to leave, Xiao Yue called out to him, "Don't hurt anyone."

A beauty is interesting only when she is perfect.

Yin Yue had just left when she came to report, "Your Majesty, the girl appeared at the market, and Prince Jing is rushing there in a hurry."

Xiao Yue didn't expect this, "God is really helping me, let's go and take a look."
