Hearing that Lin Xixue agreed to enter the palace immediately, Yan You didn't show any flaws in his expression, he just walked quickly to lead the way and brought her to his official sedan chair.

The eight bearers seemed to have received some news in advance, and they were already waiting beside the sedan chair, and when they saw the banquet coming, they all saluted respectfully.

Yan You waved his hand casually, took a step forward and opened the car curtain, and made a gesture of invitation.

Lin Xixue squinted her eyes, and vigilantly released her spiritual sense to see if there was any difference between the eight bearers in the sedan chair, and Yan You had already seen it in the eyes of the eight bearers.

"Miss Lin?"

"Nothing, let's go."

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the sedan chair, Lin Xixue lifted her skirt as if nothing had happened, stepped onto the sedan chair, followed by Yan You.The sedan chair is quite spacious enough to accommodate two people sitting face to face.

Yan You sat down, brushed his front, and said a little casually: "Get up the sedan chair."

The eight strong bearers lifted their sedan chairs and trotted towards the palace.The eight people were in unison, and with the same pace, Lin Xixue unexpectedly couldn't feel any bumps.

The two sat facing each other, but they were silent all the way. The atmosphere in the sedan chair was a bit dull, but Yan You suddenly asked, "Miss Lin doesn't seem nervous?"

"Why should I be nervous?"

"Killing an official of the court is a capital crime, is Miss Lin really not afraid?"

"I killed Shi Xueqian, God knows, you know, I know, killing the imperial court official is a capital crime, but who knows that I am guilty?"

The corner of Lin Xixue's mouth curled up, "Or is it that Mr. Yan is going to report this matter to the Holy One truthfully?"

"Young Master Yan just talked about loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. It seems that Young Master Yan is going to choose to be loyal to the emperor?" Lin Xixue tilted her head and lightly touched her cheek with her left hand, which was quite teasing.

Yan You laughed a few times, and replied: "Master Lu handed over the Lixin jade slip to you, so you are Yan's junior sister."

Lin Xixue didn't speak, just looked at Yanyou, without comment.

"There are no outsiders on the left and right, today I will put on airs as a senior brother." Yan You sat upright with his hands on his knees.

"The so-called loyalty to the monarch and patriotism is from the perspective of the monarch, and from the perspective of the minister, if loyalty to the monarch is beneficial to the current situation, then choose loyalty to the monarch, and if patriotism is beneficial to the current situation, then choose patriotism."

"Hehe, in this troubled world, it's not incomprehensible for Mr. Yan to act like this." Lin Xixue raised the corners of her eyes, "So, right now, it's a situation where being loyal to the emperor is more beneficial to Mr. Yan?"

Yan You shook his head with a smile, and said: "Miss Lin was joking, I regard you as half a junior sister, but also as one of my own, how could I do such a thing of betraying my own?"

How could Lin Xixue believe his nonsense, she was afraid that after entering the palace, Yan You would directly betray herself and take all the blame on herself.

However, before entering the palace, there is still a lot to do.

Lin Xixue cupped her hands slightly, and said, "If that's the case, then I'll thank Mr. Yan first."

After the two made false claims, they didn't speak any more, and the bearers walked extremely fast, and they entered the palace and dropped off the sedan chair not long after.

Lin Xixue and Yan You stepped out of their sedan chairs one after another, and an eunuch dressed in plain onyx came to lead the way and took them to the temporary "mourning hall".

Outside the mourning hall, the emperor glared and blew his beard, pointing at the three ministers kneeling on the ground and yelling: "Idiots, a bunch of idiots, the court ordered the official to die like this, half a day has passed, but no clues can be found."

"My Majesty, please calm down. I have already sent troops to blockade the entire Jingyun City. I have mobilized all the people to investigate from house to house. I will never let a fly out of the city."

"Then what about you!" As he said, the emperor kicked another minister to the ground, "What do you Ting Lingsi do?"

The emperor tore the memorial in his hand into two pieces and threw it on the minister's face, "The cause of death is still unclear, how dare you present this kind of memorial?"

"Where's the Minister of the Ministry of Officials? Let me check immediately if there are any other available people in Ting Lingsi. As for this waste, the family property will be confiscated, and the whole family will be sent to the north!"

Hearing this, the overthrown head of the Lingling Department naturally felt his liver and gallbladder split, and he quickly fell to his knees and begged for mercy: "This minister deserves to die, my lord, if you give this minister one more chance, I will definitely investigate with all my strength. .”

Lin Xixue suppressed the smile in her heart, thinking that the dog emperor was not good at government affairs, but she did not expect her acting skills to be top-notch. If she didn't know the inside story, she would probably have been deceived enough after seeing this.

Seeing this, Yan You hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, saying, "See Your Majesty!"

"Excuse me, excuse me." The emperor was obviously in a bad mood at the moment, and he didn't even look back at him, but continued to blame the head of the Lingling Department in front of him.

"Your Majesty, Director Zheng has been loyal for many years, and this time the matter is unfavorable, maybe there is something inside." Yan You knelt on the ground and advised.

Hearing this, the emperor turned his head just now, and seeing that it was Yan You, he changed his attitude and tone slightly, and said: "So it's Yan Aiqing, you should go and mourn Shi Aiqing first."

"Your Majesty, in fact, I have something to discuss!" Yan You looked in Lin Xixue's direction, obviously about to start putting blame on her.

"Is there anything to talk about after the condolences, go." The emperor had already exchanged messages with Lin Xixue, so how could he not know what Yan You was going to say, and he choked back with just one sentence.

Hearing this, Yan You had no choice but to swallow the words he had prepared and sent to his throat, and only uttered the word "yes".

After finishing speaking, he got up and walked towards the mourning hall that had just been built. Halfway there, the emperor suddenly added: "By the way, there is Shi Aiqing's favorite Jade Hundred Flowers Wine over there. Go and offer him a toast."

"Wei Chen takes orders."

Yan You walked towards the altar covered with a white cloth, the eunuch had already filled the wine for him, he took the wine and sprinkled it in front of the mourning hall.

Afterwards, the eunuch poured wine for him again, but he didn't know whether it was intentional or not, the hand of the eunuch who poured the wine shook suddenly, and the jasper-like wine spilled out, soaking Yan You's hands holding the jade cup .

Seeing the green smoke rising from his hands, Yan You was stunned for a moment, then hissed in pain.

A sharp neigh filled the ears of the eunuch serving wine, and in an instant, the eunuch was bleeding from all seven orifices, fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.

The wine mixed with the soul-destroying soil instantly broke the disguise of feasting, and its hands could no longer maintain a fixed shape, but quickly changed back to slippery, mucus-covered tentacles.

But the soul-destroying soil continued to erode Yanyou's body, and the originally slippery tentacles quickly shriveled, died, and fell off, peeling off layer by layer like dead skin.

Yan You didn't hesitate, immediately cut off his hands, turned around and wanted to escape, but the emperor was naturally prepared, the dragon energy was circulating all over his body, and there was a hidden dragon chant between the heaven and the earth.

Intimidated by the dragon's chant, Yanyou's escape was delayed for a few breaths, and the eunuchs around took out water guns made of bamboo tubes one after another, and poured the clear water mixed with the spirit soil in the bamboo tubes on Yanyou.

However, at this moment, the accident happened again.
The missing persons are back!
