Chapter 462

Xiao Rongyuan obviously thought of it too, his eyes darkened, "Continue to investigate."

"Yes." Zhao Zhong respectfully agreed, and was about to retreat when Xiao Rongyuan stopped him.

"In Danfeng Palace, what is the name of the eunuch who disappeared on the same day?" He asked suddenly.

"Xiaoluzi." Zhao Zhong replied.

"I remember, he was brought into the palace by Eunuch Zheng, right?" Xiao Rongyuan said.

"Yes."

Xiao Rongyuan narrowed his dark eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, "Call Eunuch Zheng."

"Slave will go now." Zhao Zhong said, and went immediately.

Not long after, Eunuch Zheng came over.

Although Eunuch Zheng was a bit old, he was still in good spirits. At this time, he was suddenly summoned by the emperor, and he felt a little uneasy.

Could it be that the emperor already knew about the theft of the military secret map?
With a feeling of apprehension, he stepped forward to salute Xiao Rongyuan.

"I don't know why the emperor asked the old slave to come here?"

"Xiao Luzi, where is he from?" Xiao Rongyuan asked directly.

When Eunuch Zheng heard the words, his heart sank. Sure enough, did the emperor still know?

That day, he was greedy for drinking and said something he shouldn't have said to Xiaoluzi. On the second night, the Hall of Mental Cultivation, which was originally peaceful and peaceful, broke into the thief. At that time, he fell into a coma, but when he woke up, , The military secret map has been stolen, and the thief has disappeared.

Except for the emperor, no one knew where to put the military secret map. After thinking about it, he became suspicious of Xiao Luzi, thinking that Xiao Luzi had something to do with the theft of the military secret map. Therefore, it had happened for so many days. He didn't dare to report it, because he was afraid that the emperor would find out that it was Xiao Luzi who did it, and Xiao Luzi would have no choice but to die.

But in the past few days, he searched around in the palace, but couldn't find Xiaoluzi, so he guessed that he must have returned to Yuecheng, and thought that when Xiaoluzi came back, he would ask him to return to the secret map of the army. Thinking of waiting for the emperor's summon today.

At this time, when the emperor heard about Xiao Luzi, he decided that the emperor already knew about it, so he knelt down and pleaded guilty: "This old servant has neglected his duty and failed to keep track of the secret military map. I also ask the emperor to forgive me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Rongyuan frowned.

Zhao Zhong was also very surprised, the master just asked him to come over to ask a question, how come the army secret map was stolen all of a sudden?
Zhao Zhong didn't react a little bit, but Xiao Rongyuan had already understood it, and his complexion sank, "What's going on? You haven't been guarding the military secret map all the time, why was it stolen all of a sudden? When did it happen, and why didn't you report it in time? ?”

The emperor's angry voice came down one after another, and Eunuch Zheng's heart trembled. Only then did he realize that the emperor didn't know about the theft of the military secret map.

But now, Eunuch Zheng didn't dare to hide any more, so he told the whole thing.

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head dejectedly, feeling very guilty, "This old slave has failed the emperor's trust, it's all caused by this old slave's greedy drink..."

Xiao Rongyuan unexpectedly did not get angry, but fell silent.

Junyi's eyebrows frowned slightly. The night the military secret map was stolen was the day before Ser'er escaped from the palace, and Xiao Luzi was serving Serer. After that, both of them disappeared on the same day. It doesn't matter, he doesn't believe it.

But what is Seer going to do to steal the secret map of the army?
"Where is Xiaoluzi from?" Xiao Rongyuan asked in a deep voice.

"Yue, Yuecheng." Eunuch Zheng said tremblingly. Although he served the late emperor, in the past few years in the palace, he knew the young emperor well. But the method was extremely ruthless, seeing that he had no intention of blaming him at this moment, he was not sure what was going on in his heart for a while.
