Chapter 13 Han Xu's Analysis
Who would have expected that Han Xu would actually tell the truth about Han Luoling's attack.
The queen, who was judged by Han Xu that the city was as deep as the sea, was also stunned for a moment, let alone the others.
The queen came back to her senses and immediately pretended to be surprised and concerned: "Did my sister encounter an assassin? Was she injured?"
Han Luoling replied: "Thanks to the Queen, the assassin was eliminated before he could take action."
"Xiao Xuxu, why are you bothering me about such trivial matters?" Han Luoling looked at Han Xu. Although it was reproachful, there was no blame in her eyes.
"My sister taught me a lesson, but my concubine will not blame me." Han Xu said.
During his six years in the royal city, he had truly cultivated the image of a dandy young master.
Even if a dandy speaks and acts a little too much, others won't think much of him.
The Queen smiled and said, "It's good that my sister is not hurt. It just so happens that I have sent people to prepare Snow Mountain Lotus Seed Soup today. It has a calming effect and will calm my sister's shock later."
Judging from her appearance, it was a true expression of true feelings, as if she cared about Han Luoling from the bottom of her heart.
After saying that, she turned to Han Xu and said, "Han Xu, it's understandable that you want to ask for a reward for Wang Qian, but I can't make the decision on this matter."
"Is there still something that the empress can't do?"
"You don't know something. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. Whether Wang Qian has meritorious service or not will be decided freely after the Ministry of Punishment finds out the truth. If it is really Wang Qian who arranged to save his sister, His Majesty will reward him based on his merits."
"What the empress said is absolutely true." Han Xu said, but an imperceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The queen said that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, but she seemed to know a lot about the investigation by the Ministry of Punishment.
But no matter what, Han Xu's goal has been achieved and the bait has been thrown out.
He killed the assassin with a snow-bladed sword just to make everyone think that it was Wang Qian who did it. If the assassination was really arranged by the queen, then the credit of the Wang family would become a knife hanging above their heads.
Later, the queen told Han Luoling some rules of the harem and things to pay attention to. According to etiquette, all concubines must come to listen to the queen's teachings before entering the palace.
After lunch, Han Xu and Han Luoling left the palace. Before the official wedding, Han Luoling could not live in the palace, let alone see Emperor Wu.
After the two left, the old eunuch who questioned Han Luoling before appeared again next to the queen.
"Your Majesty, this girl is not simple," the old eunuch said.
"As expected of the daughter of King Han," the queen said, "How is the investigation going?"
"There is news from the Ministry of Punishment that it is indeed the Snow Blade Crazy Sword, but Wang Qian denied that he did it and sent people to launch an investigation."
"Wang Qian has no foundation in the court. He is not stupid and should not betray."
"Then what if it's true?"
A stern look flashed in the Queen's eyes, and she said softly: "Then he is worthless."
"By the way, Madam, Han Luoling has entered the royal city, what should we do?"
"She can escape the first grade of junior high school, but not the fifteenth grade." The queen picked up the tea cup and said, "The last assassination alarmed the Tiance army, and now it may be difficult to send an assassin."
"This time, we have to change the method. In short, Han Luoling must not enter the palace."
"Later, I will write a letter and arrange for someone to hand it over to Wang Qian."
"In addition, if Ning Shanzhi is ready, let the Ministry of Punishment finalize the case. After all, if the case drags on for a long time, it will inevitably alarm the Holy Master. When the time comes, it will be difficult to control the Xuan Yiwei intervention."
"No!" After accepting the order, the old eunuch quickly exited the hall.
On the other side, after Han Xu left the palace, he separated from Han Luoling.
Although the etiquette department has arranged some procedures required for the wedding, Han Luoling still needs to be personally involved in many details to ensure that the wedding day is foolproof.
Han Xu was originally heading towards Fengxuan Pavilion. So far today, he had only downloaded Han Luoling's Mirror Flowers and Water Moon, and there were still two skill points to download. Therefore, Han Xu thought of Bai Yiyi's Misty Steps.
But now, Han Xu was thinking about something else.
Where did the killer of Han Luoling come from.
In the royal city, there are not many forces that can dispatch four sixth-grade masters at once.
The first thing that can be eliminated is the people behind the scenes, who are too conspicuous.
Therefore, Han Xu turned his suspicious eyes to the Jianghu forces.
"Master, do you already have doubts?" Lin Feng asked.
"Uncle Lin, you said that the royal city is such a big place, how many forces can produce four sixth-grade masters at once?"
"Golden Sword Sect?" Lin Feng said, "If we say who is the largest political force in the royal city, it must be the Golden Sword Sect."
"What about the Golden Knife Sect?" Han Xu asked.
"Except for the Golden Sword Sect, I really can't think of anyone else." Lin Feng said, "The royal city is at the foot of the Emperor, and its jurisdiction is very strict. Except for the Golden Sword Sect, it is difficult for other Jianghu forces to gain a foothold."
"Uncle Lin, you are wrong. The most powerful force in the royal city is not just the Golden Sword Sect."
Although Lin Feng knew that Han Xu couldn't talk nonsense, there were still some things he didn't understand.
"It's just that if there are other powerful forces, the royal family will probably take action. After all, if there are too many forces in the world, it will easily cause disputes."
Han Xu showed a meaningful smile in the carriage and said, "What if someone can cover the eyes of the royal family?"
"That can only be someone from the royal family." Lin Feng said subconsciously, but after he finished speaking, he was shocked by what he said.
"Young Master is really quick-witted. I admire you, I admire you."
"Uncle Lin, don't try to be so mean." Han Xu thought: If you knew that the four brothels in Wangcheng were all forces with extraordinary skills, I wonder if you would be shocked.
Han Xu knew so much, but it was not because of his intelligence as Lin Feng said, but because he had been in Wangcheng for six years and downloaded a lot of skills using the skills download system.
There are extraordinary skills in the four brothels, and ordinary forces can never have extraordinary skills.
"Young Master, someone is following behind." Lin Feng suddenly reminded.
"Don't worry about them." Han Xu had already noticed the two people following behind him. After coming out of the palace, Han Xu always kept his spiritual sense covering the two streets.
The two men had been following them stealthily since they left the palace. At first, Han Xu thought they were following Han Luoling, but after they separated, he realized they were following him.
Han Xu had roughly guessed their identities.
Nine out of ten, they were the subordinates of the Wang family.
Han Xu stole Wang Ran's token to leave the city. Wang Qian would definitely investigate all the people who had contact with Wang Ran, especially those in Wanhua Pavilion.
And Han Xu must be one of the most suspicious people.
"Really don't care?" Lin Feng asked.
"Follow if you want, Master, I'm tired now, I want to relax."
Han Xu's lazy voice came from the carriage: "Let's go, Xiaoxiang Pavilion."
