Danyang came here just to find out the truth first, but he didn't expect such an unexpected surprise.
She solemnly took the jade pendant, raised a smile, and thanked her sincerely before saying:
"Uncle, don't worry. Danyang knows that this thing represents the majesty of the royal family. He will never show it to others easily, let alone throw it away casually."
If Danyang was a child, she would have said this on a whim. But at this moment, it definitely comes from the bottom of my heart and will be implemented to the end.
But when Emperor Xuande heard this, he just smiled helplessly, shook his head lightly and said:
"Silly boy, my uncle just wants you to understand that you should use this thing when you think it is most suitable. However, you have been smart, sensitive and fearless since you were a child. And the best thing is that you don't take the worldly rules seriously. Son. Well, this is good, hahaha..."
When he said the last part, Emperor Xuande suddenly burst out laughing.
At that moment, Danyang felt as if she saw a glimmer of interest in her emperor uncle's eyes, as if he was waiting for a good show.
However, it was rare that the atmosphere was so just right. After a moment of hesitation, Danyang decided to take advantage of this opportunity and go straight in.
After making up her mind, she immediately acted curious, tilted her head and asked with a smile:
"By the way, what my uncle just talked about with Zhao Shangshu and the others was the murder case outside our house the day before yesterday, right?"
When Emperor Xuande heard this, he raised his eyebrows, looked at Danyang carefully, and said with a smile:
"Well, that's right. Is Danyang worried or afraid?"
Logically speaking, it is normal for an unexperienced little girl to turn pale and tremble with fear when she hears such a tragic incident.
That was a major case in which dozens of people were stabbed to death in the street in one night. Not to mention it happened in front of their own house. Even a strong man who lived in the suburbs of Beijing would be worried for a few days when he heard about it.
But Danyang didn't even need to answer, Emperor Xuande understood with just one glance.
His niece, who has been different since she was a child, seems to be very interested in the progress of the case, let alone scared?
At this moment, Emperor Xuande didn't know whether to praise him or give him a serious warning.
Sure enough, Danyang smiled and said nonchalantly:
"It's not like anything happened to the people in the Princess's Mansion. What should I worry about? Besides, even if someone wants to take action against the Princess' Mansion, is it useful? Just repay a tooth for a tooth and double the amount."
Because the second half of her soliloquy accidentally touched her own heartstrings, it was inevitable that she would leak too much energy.
Danyang was aware of it the moment he said it, and immediately acted cute at the end of the sentence to make up for it.
Phew, not bad, not bad.
Not to mention, the cute appearance when I was a child is really easy to do at this time.
Emperor Xuande and the Crown Prince were stunned when they heard this, and then they both couldn't help but shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
"As expected, it is the bloodline of the Cavalry General that I have chosen personally." After sighing with emotion, he reached out and patted the top of Danyang's hair, and sighed with a serious expression:
"It's good to be brave, but don't let your mother worry too much. I'll give an order soon and send two of the imperial guards around you to protect you. Also, as you heard just now, there may be barbarians in the city at this moment. Remember Don’t run around the city lately!”
After saying that, he raised his hand and gently scratched the tip of Danyang's nose, then softened his serious expression and went to drink tea to soothe his throat.
Danyang shook his head and refused, and told Emperor Xuande about mobilizing his troops, and then turned to the topic and said:
"What about the criminals? Since there are assassins committing crimes, there is naturally someone behind the scenes who paid these people. Does your uncle already know who it is?"
Danyang already had the answer to this question in her mind, but Emperor Xuande's answer was crucial to her and would determine the direction and method of her future actions.
"Oh, this is..."
When Emperor Xuande heard this question, he put down the teacup in his hand and glanced inadvertently at the desk in the distance where the files compiled and sent by Zongzheng Temple were still spread out.

After Han Qinglan left the princess's mansion with the drunken Hong Ze, half dragging and half hugging her, she struggled a little and let the temporarily hired carriage take him and Hong Ze straight to her home - Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion. .
In fact, in recent years, the trend of banquets in Beijing has become increasingly popular. People in the capital who are not feeling well after a hangover or don't want to go home often choose a nearby inn and sleep with their heads covered until they wake up the next day.
Of course, some of them were so drunk that they fell unconscious and were sent to stay by their friends.
Thinking that he had urgent things to do next, and it was best for as few people to know his whereabouts today as possible, Hong Ze should be "treated in the same way".
However, after many struggles, Han Qinglan couldn't bear to irresponsibly "abandon" an old friend who had been arranged by him and almost "knocked down" personally. Therefore, after weighing the left and right, we can only make this decision.
Along the way, he rarely sighed twice. After arriving at the uncle's residence, he deliberately chose the corner door closest to the Xuezhai where he lived daily to enter, and tried his best to avoid the eyes and ears of others the whole time.
After he left the person in the care of his personal servant, and specifically asked him to take good care of him before leaving, and tried not to disturb the mansion as much as possible, he sneaked out again.
When he was standing on the street again, Han Qinglan suddenly trembled when the breeze blew by.
It was only at this moment that he later realized that he was sweating profusely, not knowing whether he was panicked, busy, or anxious.
And that's not all, now he has to rush to the palace non-stop and go to Zongzheng Temple "on official business"!
That princess is really good at sending people around!
Not only is the time accurate, but available routes are also provided...
Han Qinglan looked up at the sky, and at the same time, with a dashing demeanor and walking faster than running, she took a shortcut across two streets and finally chose an inn at random.
After renting a fast horse and leaving from behind the shop, he finally took a breath.
After that, as long as you drive all the way, it will not be too late to reach the previous dynasty.
And while sitting firmly on the horse, taking a break from the busy work for a while. Han Qinglan still didn't forget it, and quickly went through all the abnormal things that happened in recent days in her mind. To prevent yourself from making mistakes while busy.
After thinking about the business, he suddenly noticed something interesting, and the smile on his face became even more unbearable.
Speaking of which, Princess Danyang of the Princess Mansion had a reputation for getting into trouble in the capital. But because of her background and the favor of Emperor Xuande and the future emperor, wealthy families from various aristocratic families had great expectations for marrying such a daughter-in-law or granddaughter-in-law.
But if they saw him in the past two days, he had witnessed with his own eyes that he could lie without changing his face and his heart would not beat. He could climb trees and walls and definitely outshine most of the dudes in the capital. He was even better at bargaining. The Empress of Princess Danyang, who is always willing to spend money...
Oh, I wonder if they still have the courage to go to the princess mansion to propose marriage?
I don’t know who will be unlucky enough to marry such a female devil in the future without knowing what’s going on.
