Chapter 172

Chang Ying pursed her lips and looked away.

She didn't know how much he couldn't forget those half months of the year, and he never forgot to mention it to her, which made her really seem to be in a mess.

There is no way to continue the topic.

She unconsciously took the peach he brought in front of her and took a bite.

But she didn't think he had the confidence to fight Ling Yuan. Ling Yuan made a real move. He couldn't win over a powerful Lord Hou, and she didn't want Huo Rong to have any conflicts with Ling Yuan.The emperor regarded him highly and would not let him go against his ministers.

She remembered his injury again and looked over.

He was facing sideways, resting his forehead with his right hand, eating the fruit intently.

The profile fell in Changying's eyes, and there was nothing wrong with it.

I have known him for so long, but I have never looked at him seriously.This man's appearance and bones are excellent, and he will be sought after wherever he is placed.

Don't blame Miss Cheng's family and Huang Huiqi for pestering him, if nothing happened three years ago, she might have looked at him brightly.

It's a pity that she is past the age of being a nympho.

She thought for a while, and decided to skip the marriage letter first: "Ling Yuan, you should try your best not to provoke him, you can't beat him.

"And we will seldom see each other in the future. The prince is very powerful. Under such circumstances, it is possible for him to make any drastic moves. Even if you are very capable, there is no need to hit a stone with an egg."

Huo Rong didn't say anything, and didn't know if he heard it.

Changying waited for a while, but he didn't respond, so she couldn't help but want to poke him.Halfway, he caught his finger and bit it between his two teeth like a fruit.

He grabbed this hand and moved down, pointing to his heart: "You should poke here, if you poke me to death, I will give up."

Changying didn't reply for a while.

Huo Rong played with this finger, the nails were clean and tidy, the base of the finger was white and cool to the touch, like carved jade.

He quickly let go of his hand, and his face was calm again, as if he had done something that could not be more fair.

Changying didn't have time to turn her face, and was speechless for a long time.

The person in front of her was full of certainty in her words, she didn't know how he was always so sure, as if his life was a chess game he knew by heart, no matter how he played, he was confident Go to that step of final victory.

Guan quickly walked to the door, saw the room and quickly backed out of the threshold, coughing.

Huo Rong said, "Come in."

Guan quickly came in: "The fifth master from the Shen family is back. Zi Xiang is waiting for the young lady outside."

Changying stood up, Shaoqing came back?
……

The Shen family was already preparing dinner, and during the time when Changying went to Huo's house, Shaoqing had already washed up and was drying his hair in the room.

Chang Ying stepped into the door and asked, "What's the matter?"

Shaoqing casually combed his hair, and said: "I don't know if I don't go, the sea trouble in Hangzhou is more serious than we imagined. I am lurking in the prefect of Hangzhou and checking day and night at the pier, and found that there are seven pirate ships coming to harass me. As many as eight ships.

"There are also sporadic Japanese pirates who come to make trouble from time to time, and the city is also harmed by them, but these kinds of things often don't last long under the hands of the guards.

"The traces of the Gu family and the prince have also been collected, take a look."

He took out a roll of paper and handed it to her.

Changying flipped through the letter twice, and saw that most of the charges were innocuous, even though there were two serious problems, and there were not enough clues to catch a definite case in a short time.

Ling Yuan only gave her one month, obviously she couldn't take care of it.

"Go back to the six doors and urge those people how the interrogation is going?" She asked Zhou Liang after watching it.

The next day, he was supposed to go to the pier to inspect, but because Huo Rong gave Song Cheng the news in Beijing, he didn't go anywhere.

After reading it, my mind went back to what Ling Yuan said yesterday.

Leaving aside the matter of job transfer, Yang Ji once took aim at her, which is something worth pondering.

Lu En, whom Ling Yan gave up his life to protect, and Qian Chu, who Huo Rong wanted to protect at the beginning, were both from Zhan Shi's mansion, and after the turmoil in Zhan Shi's mansion, Yang Ji wanted to take another concubine to fill the harem. Not long after the accident, Ling Yan also had an accident, and it all happened at that juncture, which made Chang Ying unable to stop thinking about it.

Ling Yan didn't want to marry her into the East Palace, and she was not accepted into the East Palace afterward. She left the Ling family with the name of ungrateful, and although she had gone through hardships, at least she still retained her freedom from a point of view.

She didn't passively get involved in the vortex of political struggle, and she was able to enter the military camp and achieved what she is today.

So, did Ling Yan choose to let her be the "murderer" at the beginning, did he have a deep meaning?

If so, then can it be proved that he was really begging for death when he suddenly became angry before the battle?

Changying's heart was racing, if he was really begging for death, what was the reason?

Wouldn't it be just to get rid of Yang Ji and let her leave the Ling family?

……

Following the Cheng Xiao case, the most heated discussion between the DPRK and China recently is the resumption of shipping.

Song Cheng is a great Confucianist, quite influential among scholars.Raise your arms and shout, recently this matter has caused a lot of ups and downs.

Just after Yang Ji and Gu Lian, the eldest son of the Marquis of Dongping, had a discussion in the front hall, Feng Su came in with a low eyebrow, "Your Highness, there is a secret letter from Huai'an.

"The guards who were sent to assassinate Huo Rong a few days ago were wiped out, and no one has returned so far. Peng Xie suspected that he had been murdered, so he sent someone to deliver a letter overnight."

Yang Ji stopped holding the pen, and Feng Su turned around and led the visitor into the hall.

After Yang Ji read the letter, his phoenix eyes turned cold: "Huo Rong is just a general Zhaoyi, how could he defeat twelve palace guards? There is no clue left, and he didn't go to investigate the reason?"

The visitor said: "I've checked, but there's no trace, even Huo Rong is doing as usual, it doesn't look like he was assassinated.

"The guards acted on their own after they arrived in Huzhou, so even our lord doesn't know when and where they took action. If they hadn't sent a letter back to Huai'an before they acted, I wouldn't even know if they had acted."

Yang Ji thought deeply.

Feng Sudao: "There are many bandits in the south of the Yangtze River. Could it be that some accident occurred before the action?"

Yang Ji was noncommittal.Glancing at the person, he folded the letter: "How is Nan Kangwei?"

"No news came out from the guard, Ling Yuan and Shen Ying also followed the steps, and no unnecessary contact was found. Huo Rong and Shen Ying should be closer.

"—By the way," the person who came here looked up, "Ling Yuan went to Hangzhou Weifu for inspection a while ago, although he came back soon, but when he came back, there were two less guards around him."

Yang Ji's eyes were slightly closed, and his expression became obviously colder.

After the visitor went down, Feng Su turned to Yang Ji: "If Huo Rong doesn't get rid of, then Ling Yuan won't be able to think about Shen Ying again. If you don't hold him back with Shen Ying, he's afraid he'll stare at the sea. Your Highness, would you like me?" Send people south immediately?"

Yang Ji rolled his sleeves: "This matter is too strange, people can be sent, but there is no rush to do it again."

Feng Su lowered his head.

"Hangzhou is what matters right now." Yang Ji said slowly, "I'll tell them to keep a low profile for now."
