Lang Yue only heard a word from the commander of the guards.

But the content contained in this sentence shocked Lang Yue after she thought about it carefully.

"I have already taken care of the brothers in Leng Palace, and I will ensure that those Central Plains people will not ask anything!" Lang Yue sat in the pavilion in the garden, thinking about the words she heard in her heart.

She was extremely shocked.

Judging from the meaning of the guard commander's words, it seems that the guards guarding the cold palace have been "managed" by him in some way.

And the purpose of his doing this was just to prevent Jiulong Mansion from asking questions from these people's mouths.

From this point of view, there must be important clues in the mouths of these cold palace guards.

Important clues that I don’t want to be known by everyone in Jiulong Mansion!

Could it be related to the fire in the cold palace and the disappearance of the mother and concubine?

Lang Yue asked herself in her heart.

But she knew this problem well. Since it was a clue that the Leng Palace guards knew, and at this juncture, apart from that matter, there could not be any other important clues.

Thinking of this, Lang Yue's eyes changed.

The words of the guard commander just now showed that this person was connected with the forces inferred by the Jiulong Mansion and others to create the fire in the cold palace and take the opportunity to kidnap the mother concubine and the Eighth Emperor Sister.

Maybe the mysterious person who just talked to him was a member of this force.

Or it could very well be the black-robed national master.

Lang Yue's eyes changed completely.

As a palace guard, he colludes with outsiders and leads wolves into the house. This kind of person deserves to be killed.

Her pretty face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.

As far as the eye can see, behind the rockery in the distance, a figure sneaks out of it, looking left and right, as if to check if there is anyone around.

It was the commander of the guards.

Although she wanted to kill this scumbag directly, considering the importance of this person, she decided to let him live first.

But she didn't want to just let him go.





Jieli looked at the black-robed Imperial Master kneeling in front of him quietly, with a hint of impatience in his eyes.

The courtiers had already retired.

The morning meeting has ended long ago.

But he still knelt there, motionless.

Jieli couldn't figure out why he was so persistent in targeting Concubine Ling. He once thought he had an old grudge with Concubine Ling.

So he sent spies to investigate the matter.

As a result, he gave up the idea.

The Imperial Master has a clean background and does not have any complicated background, so it is impossible for him to have an old grudge with Concubine Ling.

So why did he target Concubine Ling?

Jieli couldn't understand.

And he wasn't ready to think about it anymore, because he believed that the national master would definitely give him a satisfactory answer.

Sure enough, after the Imperial Master heard his question, a speechless look immediately appeared on his slightly weathered face. After a gentle breath, he spoke.

"To be honest with your Majesty, the reason why I targeted Concubine Ling is because on the day I entered the palace and was granted the title of Imperial Advisor, I asked about the secrets of the heavens and estimated the fate of our country, but I got an extremely terrible result."

Jie Li asked curiously: "Oh? What's the result?"

The Imperial Master looked solemnly and asked for instructions: "Because the calculation results are too shocking, I hope that your Majesty will not blame the old minister after hearing this."

Xie Li's curiosity had been aroused by him, so he naturally nodded in agreement.

The black-robed master nodded slightly and said, "The calculation results show that the future of the Barbarian Kingdom will be destroyed in the hands of a fox demon!"

Hearing this, Jie Li was as expected shocked!

But the Imperial Master no longer looked at him at this moment, and only listened to him continue talking on his own.

"I further calculated the secrets of heaven, and fortunately received enlightenment and guidance from the gods. Finally, I finally found out that the fox demon who will destroy the future of the Barbarian Kingdom is Ling Fei!!"

Hearing this, Jie Li froze on the throne as if he had suffered a major blow.

After a long while, he said: "Is this serious?"

The black-robed Imperial Master said: "Didn't Your Majesty also see the fox demon appearance of Concubine Ling?"

Jie Li hesitated for a moment and said: "This..."

The Imperial Master continued: "Then your Majesty should remember that the fox clan who rebelled twenty years ago will have strange phenomena once their martial arts are activated, right?"

Jie Li was completely stunned.

Back then, after activating the power of the fox clan, the body surface transformed into an illusory fox tail phenomenon. This was exactly the same as what was seen on Ling Fei that day!

Could it be...

An idea quickly formed in Jieli Khan's mind, but was quickly rejected by him.

"No, it's impossible... Concubine Ling is from the Central Plains. As far as I know, Hu Tian didn't have a wife from the Central Plains back then. It should be impossible for her to have such a daughter."

He told himself in his mind.

But the more this happened, the more unsure he felt.

Especially when he thought that Concubine Ling had the same vision as when the Fox clan activated their martial arts, it made him extremely suspicious.

He is a suspicious person by nature.

It was precisely because of this that the Imperial Master guided him to connect Concubine Ling with the Fox Clan twenty years ago. In this way, even if he had true feelings for Concubine Ling, he would not help but Suspect.

Because the Fox Clan had become the biggest fear in his heart twenty years ago!

The experience I had twenty years ago was too profound! !

If someone hadn't secretly revealed Hu Tian's arrangements back then and asked him to make preparations in advance, otherwise I'm afraid the position of the leader of the barbarian country would have changed hands long ago.

Once someone gets involved with this clan, no matter how high his status is or how close he is to him, he will not hesitate to use iron and blood methods to kill him!

He will never allow what happened back then to happen again!

The Imperial Master also knew this very well.

He is very good at grasping people's hearts and knows how to arouse Xie Li's suspicion just right.

So he said something else.

"As far as I know, Hu Tian seemed to have had an affair with a Central Plains woman back then, but it's unclear whether they have any descendants... After all, this is just a rumor."

He didn't make his words absolute.

Rather, it provides a direction for thinking.

Because he knows very well that the most terrifying thing about people's hearts is far from being fickle, but rather suspicion.

Especially a suspicious person like Jie Li.

Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Xie Li's expression suddenly changed! !

After a moment, he spoke, with an undoubted domineering tone in his tone.

Even though he is old, he is still the ruthless king who dared to do things that others would not dare to do.

"Then in your opinion, how should we find Concubine Ling...?"

Hearing this, the Imperial Master immediately understood that, as he had expected, he had reached the point of doubting what he wanted him to doubt.

So he laughed.

"I have already thought of a way to find Concubine Ling, but before that, Your Majesty needs to capture someone first."

"Oh?" Jie Li narrowed his eyes slightly.





Lang Yue stopped the guard commander.

She used the simplest way to speak out.

The garden in the inner courtyard of the harem is where the princesses and concubines play in summer. Servants and guards are generally not allowed to set foot here except with permission from the master.

If the weather were like this under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for the princesses and concubines to come here.

And other palace maid guards cannot set foot.

That's why the guard commander chose to meet the mysterious man here and now.

But he didn't expect that an accident would happen today.

His conversation with the mysterious man was discovered by others.

Although the man had already left because he was discovered, when exactly did he arrive, how much of their conversation did he hear, and what was his identity...

He didn't know any of this.

These unknowns made him feel very unsure, and also caused his conversation with the mysterious man to end prematurely.

So he had to leave.

But he never expected to hear the voice of the Ninth Princess at this time.

"Stop!" Princess Ninth's voice came from behind, but the next moment, her people had appeared in front of him.

Lang Yue pretended to see him for the first time and looked him over in detail, then asked: "Who are you? Don't you know that guards are prohibited from entering here?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a new guard in the palace, so I don't know this rule yet. I'll leave now." The guard commander's expression changed slightly, and then he said innocently.

The reason why he dared to pretend to be a new guard was because he was sure that the Ninth Princess didn't know him.

After all, the Cold Palace is a place that is quite sparse in the harem. Except for the concubine Ling who is imprisoned in it, ordinary princesses and concubines will not approach it.

Not to mention knowing him as a guard guarding the cold palace.

Although the Ninth Princess had previously disguised herself as a chambermaid and went into the Leng Palace to visit Concubine Ling.

But Princess Ninth avoided seeing her at that time and covered her face with a tray. Presumably, she didn't see her appearance either.

He was right.

Lang Yue did not see his face at that time.

But I remember his voice.

Therefore, she could confirm that he was the owner of the sound without seeing the person and only hearing the sound.

"stop!"

Seeing that the guard commander was about to leave, Lang Yue shouted to stop again.

"I wonder if your Royal Highness the Ninth Princess has anything else to do?" he said.

Lang Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and said jokingly: "Oh? Since you are the new guard, do you already know that I am the Ninth Princess?"

The guard commander's heart suddenly sank.
