Chapter 408 Are You Willing to Obey Me?

Rong Yu said calmly: "Let them in."

"Yes."

After a while, Xie Jin came in with two young men. After saluting, Xie Jin said: "These two people are the tutors appointed by Her Majesty the Queen to the Master."

Xuanyuan Hua and Xuanyuan Chen bowed respectfully, looking down at the palace brick floor. The cold floor tiles soaked their knees. The deep chill made them clearly realize that the place they were in at this moment would no longer be the small courtyard far away from the center of power in the palace.

Xuanyuan Yao turned his eyes slightly, glanced at the two young men without emotion, and then his eyes fell on Xie Jin's peach-like face. He seemed to want to say something, but he swallowed it back when the words came to his lips.

"What?" Xie Jin keenly noticed that he was about to say something, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked in lip language: "Was he scolded by the Master?"

Xuanyuan Yao shook his head slowly.

Although he was suffocated by the pressure just now, the Master did not scold him.

Rong Yu was not the type to scold people with words. Just keeping silent could create a strong pressure that made people feel cold.

If it was really a scolding, it would not be so scary.

But Xuanyuan Yao did not want to say this.

He wanted to ask why Xie Jin was so special to these two teenagers and brought them to the palace in person, but when he thought about being punished to kneel down for talking nonsense the day before yesterday, he immediately learned his lesson and did not dare to joke with Xie Jin in front of Rong Yu.

Xie Jin seemed to see what he was thinking, smiled nonchalantly, and quickly looked away: "Does the Lord want to hear the true story of the case in the Prince of Wei's Mansion?"

Rong Yu's eyes fell on the map, as if he was thinking about something, and he said calmly: "Speak."

"The key to this matter lies in Madam Xi and the fact that Prince Jing's Mansion is praying for the marriage of the prince."

"I have asked Madam Xi before. The Prince of Wei sent someone to take her 15-year-old son and threatened to take Madam Xi's 12-year-old daughter into the palace and give her to Xuanyuan Yan as a concubine." Xie Jin stood in front of the desk and said in a faint voice, "Madam Xi didn't know at first how she had offended the Prince of Wei's Mansion for no reason, but her son suffered in the Prince of Wei's Mansion and her daughter was young. The words of the Prince of Wei made her confused and at a loss."

"That night, Fang Lanyi went to Madam Xi's house and said that she could save Madam Xi. The couple's children, but the condition is that on the night of Prince Qi's wedding, Madam Xi will use her status as a matchmaker to put musk in the bridal chamber when making the bed, so as to harm Chu Hongyi's baby. "

"Madam Xi is a matchmaker for others. She is a well-known kind-hearted woman. She has never done anything harmful in her life, so Fang Lanyi's words are like bad news to her. She was almost scared to death. Before she came back to her senses, Fang Lanyi and Xuanyuan Yan had this incident that night."

Xie Jin recounted the incident slowly and did not mention anything else. At the end, he said calmly: "Although Madam Xi has a motive for committing a crime, she does not have the ability to commit a crime. A commoner cannot have the courage to retaliate against the Prince of Wei's Mansion and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. Moreover, I have also checked and Madam Xi's family has been ruled out of suspicion."

The last sentence is obviously nonsense.

Of course, Madam Xi could not be the mastermind behind the scenes. Not to mention Madam Xi, even if it is placed in an ordinary powerful family, it is difficult to achieve such a perfect revenge method.

However, on the surface, the procedures still need to be followed.

"Fang Lanyi is really vicious." Xuanyuan Yao muttered, "She is a perfect match for Xuanyuan Yan."

Xie Jin glanced at him, smiled faintly, and looked at Rong Yu: "How does the master plan to deal with this matter?"

In fact, this matter has been tacitly understood.

Even if Rong Yu didn't know who did it at first, after hearing the report from his subordinates, he should have had the answer in his heart. Moreover, Xie Jin's words at this time have undoubtedly told him that Xuanyuan Yan and Fang Lanyi are both self-inflicted - but even if they are self-inflicted, there must be a careful pusher behind the scenes.

When Xie Jin reported the progress of the case with Zeng Shangshu, he concealed some important details, but these details can be concealed from Zeng Shangshu who is investigating the case, but not from Rong Yu, otherwise it would be deceiving the emperor.

However, there is no direct evidence pointing to that person at present, and Xie Jin has done some tricks. Now all the directions of Zeng Shangshu's investigation are placed on Qingfeng Pavilion, but Qingfeng Pavilion is a force that he cannot pry open.

So once the deadline is up, Minister Zeng will be dismissed for incompetence.

It's pretty tragic to think about it.

Rong Yu looked away from the map, picked up the teacup on the table, and said indifferently: "Tell Xuanyuan Qi a message, let him be more restrained in the future, don't be so reckless."

Xie Jin nodded: "Yes."

Xuanyuan Yao was surprised: "Prince Qi?"

Xie Jin couldn't help but glance at him again, and Xuanyuan Yao's mouth twitched when he saw him: "Is it okay if I'm slow?"

He didn't participate in this case, and he didn't know the hidden story. How could he guess who did it at once? Besides, Xie Jin's tone before reporting the case just now sounded like a riddle. He wondered how the master knew it was Xuanyuan Qi's doing at once.

Sure enough, his brain was not suitable for intrigues with others in the court.

Rong Yu didn't say anything else, and explained some things in the military camp. Regarding the case, it seemed that the sentence just now was his attitude, and there was no need to say more.

Xie Jin understood and bowed to leave.

Xuanyuan Hua and Xuanyuan Chen were left behind, and would be the regent's people in the future. He didn't need to worry about them anymore. He had already reminded them of what was necessary. Their future fate would depend entirely on their luck.

When the two walked out of the Qinzheng Hall, Xuanyuan Yao subconsciously reached out to hook Xie Jin's neck, but he didn't know what he thought of, and silently retracted his hand in the middle.

"What?" Xie Jin frowned, looking a little sad, "Is Yaoyao alienated from me?"

"In public, I am afraid of causing a bad influence." Xuanyuan Yao explained, "I am more afraid of causing Ajin to misunderstand."

Xie Jin calmly: "What misunderstanding?"

Xuanyuan Yao coughed lightly: "If Ajin falls in love with me-"

"There is no if." Xie Jin stopped and looked at him seriously, "Yaoyao, I already like you."

Xuanyuan Yao paused and looked at him suspiciously.

"Really." Xie Jin looked at him with a pair of phoenix eyes, "Is Yaoyao willing to obey me?"

Xuanyuan Yao was frightened for a while, staring at his rare serious expression, no longer caring about joking: "You...you are not serious?"

"I look like I'm joking?" Xie Jin frowned, "What about you? Do you think I am--"

"No! Absolutely not." Xuanyuan Yao took a step back and looked at him warily, "I am the only son of my father, Xie Jin, and you are also the only legitimate son of the Xie family. This is not a joke--"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xie Jin's slowly raised lips and the obvious playful expression on his beautiful face. Xuanyuan Yao realized that he was being fooled, and immediately became angry: "Are you looking for a fight?"

After speaking, he punched him in the delicate and noble face.
