Xue Mu didn't know what method Nangong Xue would use to obtain the privilege of going to the cold palace.
But now he had to get the palace map out first. The white paper he had prepared in his arms might be soaked with sweat if he didn't use it anymore.
So he found an excuse and said: "How about Mr. Nangong, you go and find a way to get the privilege of going to the cold palace now. Eunuch Cao and I will go to the queen's palace again and let Eunuch Cao point to the direction of the map again. I'm thinking in my mind It’s a good impression.”
Nangong Xue did not doubt this. She nodded and said, "Okay, then we will divide our forces into two groups."
Xue Mu then returned to the Queen's palace with Eunuch Cao.
Nangong Xue, on the other hand, walked into the depths of the palace alone, not knowing where she was going.
Eunuch Cao seemed to be aware of it, and he was very scared.
After all, the Queen has given numerous instructions regarding this matter, and Her Majesty must not be allowed to know about it.
If Lord Nangong really goes to see that person, there may be chaos in the harem.
"I hope not." Eunuch Cao muttered to himself.
Xue Mu asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Eunuch Cao quickly avoided it awkwardly: "No, it's nothing. Mr. Xue, let's go to the Queen's palace now."
"good."
Soon, Xue Mu and Eunuch Cao came to the Queen's palace together.
At this time, Lan Jiuyun closed his eyes and prepared to rest. The maid in the palace came forward and called softly: "Mother, Master Xue and Eunuch Cao are waiting outside the palace. They said they want to see the map of the palace again."
Lan Jiuyun didn't think much, nodded and said, "Then show it to them."
"yes."
The maid walked to the cabinet, opened the box and took out the palace map.
At this time, Xue Mu was thinking of a way. He uttered an ouch and said to Eunuch Cao: "Eunuch Cao, I'm sorry, I forgot something very important. You have to tell Mr. Nangong immediately."
When Eunuch Cao heard this, he asked in a panic: "What's the matter?"
"It's very possible that the murderer will commit another crime tonight."
"Why?" Eunuch Cao was a little confused.
Xue Mu replied: "Have you not noticed that the time between committing crimes is getting shorter and shorter? It is very likely that the crime will be committed again tonight. The purpose is to let everyone know about this incident and cause a fuss."
He then told Eunuch Cao: "Go to Master Nangong now and tell her about this."
Eunuch Cao asked, "What about the map?"
"It doesn't matter. I can ask my maid to help you point it out when the time comes."
"good."
With that said, Eunuch Cao hurried over.
At the same time, the maid on the side also heard what he said.
She asked: "Master Xue, do you need my servant to point you to the map?"
"Yes, thank you." Xue Mu said politely.
The maid then opened the map.
Just then, it was time to open my eyes in the evening.
He stayed in the palace from day to night, working hard until dusk.
Now, my eyesight is gradually recovering.
This time can also be used to expand the palace map.
Then he pretended to say: "Girl, please help me point out the palace of Concubine Wan Gui."
The maid looked at the map, then carefully grabbed Xue Mu's finger and pointed at one of the places: "This is it."
"It's Concubine Mu's bedroom."
"At this."
Xue Mu nodded in realization.
Then I deliberately asked a few places.
The maids also pointed at them one by one.
Soon, as time passed, Xue Mu said: "Okay, it's ready."
The maid began to collect the map.
At this time, Xue Mu said deliberately: "I wonder if your Majesty can come out for a moment. I have something to say to your Majesty. Please let me know."
When the maid heard this, she put down the palace map and walked into the screen, planning to talk to Lan Jiuyun about it.
Xue Mu took advantage of this time gap to immediately take out the paper from his arms, pour the potion on it, and cover it.
really.
Something magical happened.
As expected, a map of the imperial palace was reproduced on this white paper.
Xue Mu was also surprised.
He didn't expect this small potion to have such an effect.
Just when he thought this matter would be solved so easily.
There was movement on the screen.
Lan Jiuyun seemed to slowly get up from the bed, and with the support of the maid, he slowly walked towards the palace hall.
Xue Mu was also worried. If this was discovered, it might be a capital crime.
It was such a waste for him to be so young and only date two women.
So he couldn't help but become anxious.
Lan Jiuyun's footsteps gradually approached.
The shadow on the screen is becoming clearer and clearer.
Xue Mu became more and more nervous and kept looking at the speed of the white paper.
Finally, the moment Lan Jiuyun appeared.
Xue Mu immediately put the white paper into his arms.
Lan Jiuyun looked up and saw him standing there with his head lowered, looking honest, thinking that he was actually a practical person.
Then she walked up to Xue Mu and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xue Mu lowered his head and replied: "Empress, the murderer is very likely to be related to the concubine in the cold palace, and it is not ruled out that she will commit another crime tonight. In order to ensure the safety of the Empress, I suggest that the Imperial Guards be kept outside for a while. Night."
Hearing this, Lan Jiuyun was a little surprised: "Is it related to the concubines in the cold palace?"
"Yes."
"Is there any evidence?"
Xue Mu pointed at the map of the palace, and then explained: "The locations where the murderer committed the crime are connected by a line, which eventually extends to the Leng Palace. There is no well in the Leng Palace, so my subordinates boldly speculate that this is related to the concubines of the Leng Palace. related."
Lan Jiuyun watched Xue Mu point to the map on the palace and pointed out the locations where the murder occurred one by one.
This surprised her a little.
Because Xue Mu is invisible.
How could he point to those bedrooms so accurately?
Xue Mu looked at her expression and suddenly understood.
I just exposed myself.
So he also pretended to add: "I just pointed based on my own impression. There may be some errors. Please forgive me."
Lan Jiuyun shook his head: "No, you just marked all the places correctly, how could you be so accurate?"
Xue Mu explained: "My maid pointed it out just now, so I remembered it in my mind."
Lan Jiuyun looked at the maid aside.
The maid nodded.
This was unexpected to Lan Jiuyun. She naturally did not expect that a blind man could remember it deeply in his mind just through a few instructions from others.
This ability is indeed suitable for the Divine Catcher Division.
So she also said: "Okay, then I will notify the Forbidden Army later and ask them to increase patrols tonight, making sure that the murderer has nowhere to hide."
"Your Majesty is wise." Xue Mu saw that nothing happened, so he suggested: "I will resign first. If there is any substantial progress, I will report to your Majesty as soon as possible."
"Okay, go ahead and pay attention to safety." Lan Jiuyun also gave a rare reminder.
Xue Mu then left.
Before leaving, he acted like he couldn't see.
Lan Jiuyun admired him in his heart.
An invisible man can still solve a crime.
It is indeed a skill.
Then she looked at the palace map on the table and said to her maid: "Okay, put this map away."
"Yes, concubine."
After Xue Mu left Kunning Palace, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Now he already has a map of the palace in his arms.
As long as he handed this map to Murong Dai, he would have accomplished a great feat.
"Master, don't say that my apprentice doesn't take care of you. Now that I have gotten this map, it can be regarded as a big gift to you. If you don't agree with me in the future, you won't be able to forgive me."
Xue Mu couldn't help but sigh as he walked on the road.
He didn't know what was going on with Nangong Xue.
As for Nangong Xue.
She walked on the road, heading towards His Majesty's Heart-nurturing Palace.
Behind him, Eunuch Cao hurried over, shouting as he walked: "Master Nangong, Master Nangong."
Nangong Xue looked back, a little confused: "Eunuch Cao, why are you here? Didn't you go to Kunming Palace with Xue Mu to look for the palace map?"
Eunuch Cao explained: "Mr.
"Okay, I understand." After Nangong Xue found out, she turned around and continued walking.
Eunuch Cao was a little scared, and he asked tentatively: "Master Nangong, are you going to see His Majesty in the Hall of Cultivation of Heart?"
"Yeah." Nangong Xue nodded.
Eunuch Cao said awkwardly: "But didn't the Queen say that Your Majesty should not know about this matter?"
"Do you think His Majesty won't know about this?" Nangong Xue asked back.
Eunuch Cao was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes and asked, "Does your Majesty already know about this?"
"You must know that no one can hide what His Majesty wants to know." Nangong Xue replied.
With that said, she continued walking forward.
"Ah?" Eunuch Cao looked surprised.
Not long after, Nangong Xue had arrived at the Yangxin Hall.
The imperial guard of the Yangxin Palace looked at Nangong Xue and immediately stopped him: "Who is coming?"
"My subordinate is Nangong Xue, the deputy commander of the Divine Catching Division. I have come to see His Majesty. I would like to inform you."
Nangong Xue's words made the imperial guards look at each other.
Then one of them said: "You wait here."
Then he walked up to an old eunuch and murmured in a low voice: "Eunuch Feng, Nangong Xue, the deputy commander of the Divine Capture Department, wants to meet with Your Majesty."
The old eunuch Feng Xi wanted to shake his head, because His Majesty had decreed that no one would be allowed to appear in court today.
But when he heard it was Nangong Xue, he hesitated.
Finally, he quietly opened the door.
Went in.
In the Hall of Nourishing Heart.
Emperor Qing Zhao Hongyin was rubbing his temples. He couldn't help but complain: "Why does taking this pill make me have more headaches?"
Then he saw Feng Xi walking over and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, there is someone here to meet you outside the palace." Feng Xi replied respectfully.
Zhao Hongyin waved his hand and said, "See you, see you. I have a severe headache today, no see."
"It's the deputy commander, Mr. Nangong Xue." Feng Xi reminded again.
When Zhao Hongyin heard this, he raised his head as expected.
He looked at Feng Xi and asked, "Is she Nangong Qi's daughter?"
"Exactly, she is also Concubine Mu's niece." Feng Xi added.
Perhaps out of guilt for Nangong Qi, Zhao Hongyin finally nodded and said, "Let her in. We need to see what's going on with her."
Then Feng Xi quickly came outside the palace and said to Nangong Xue: "Master Nangong, Your Majesty agrees that you can go in."
"Thank you, Eunuch Feng." Nangong Xue thanked him.
Before that, Feng Xi reminded him again: "Your Majesty has a severe headache today. Mr. Nangong must be more careful in what he says."
After hearing this, Nangong Xue smiled: "Okay, thank you Eunuch Feng for the reminder."
Then, she walked into the temple.
She knelt on the ground and said respectfully to His Majesty in front of her: "Your Majesty, Nangong Xue, bow to Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
Zhao Hongyin looked at her, nodded and said, "Get up."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Nangong Xue stood up.
This was Zhao Hongyin's first time meeting Nangong Xue, and he had heard about it before.
He didn't expect Nangong Xue to be so beautiful.
Quite comparable to her aunt.
Then he asked: "Why did you come to see me today?"
"Your Majesty, there have been several cases of cat monsters in the harem recently, and people are panicking. The Detective Division investigated this case and found that the matter should be related to the concubines in the cold palace, so I want to come to your majesty to get the privilege of entering the cold palace. .”
Nangong Xue was neither humble nor arrogant, and told all the matter directly.
Zhao Hongyin was not surprised when he heard this.
Because he already knew about this matter as early as when the first case came out.
It's just that Zhao Hongyin doesn't intend to deal with this kind of thing.
And he also wanted to see whether Lan Jiuyun, the mother of a country, was capable of handling it.
This Lan Jiuyun was the only queen his mother appointed before her death.
Zhao Hongyin originally didn't want to agree, but for the sake of his mother, he finally agreed to make Lan Jiuyun the queen.
Now, this happened.
Zhao Hongyin can see how Lan Jiuyun handles it. If he doesn't handle it well, he will depose her over this matter when the time comes.
But what he didn't expect was that Nangong Xue from the Divine Catching Division would come specifically to find him.
Asking to enter the cold palace.
This surprised him.
Zhao Hongyin then asked: "This cold palace, I made a rule at the beginning, no one is allowed to enter."
He looked at Nangong Xue: "It's impossible to break my rules for a case."
He wanted to hear Nangong Xue's answer.
Nangong Xue said calmly: "This world belongs to His Majesty. The palace is His Majesty's palace, and the cold palace is naturally the same. With just one word from His Majesty, the rules can be broken."
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyin laughed: "Yes, this is reasonable."
He then looked at Feng Xi: "Go, follow Mr. Nangong to the Leng Palace and talk to the guards there."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
With that said, Feng Xi came to Nangong Xue and whispered: "Master Nangong, please come with me."
"Thank you, Eunuch Feng."
Nangong Xue was about to leave.
Zhao Hongyin looked at her back and suddenly asked: "Have you ever forgiven your father in these years?"
Hear this.
Nangong Xue stopped in her tracks.
