Chapter 65: The Hibiscus Tent is Warm in the Cold Winter Night

Yun Zheng's expression did not change. He gently freed his hand that was holding the comb and continued to help her comb her long hair.

"Alas~"

Seeing that he was going to pretend to the end, Madam Yun sighed helplessly, let go of his hand and turned away in silence.

His family was in trouble, and Yun Zheng had originally decided not to meddle in other people's business. However, when he saw his wife looking so distressed, he couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.

"This matter has nothing to do with Madam, why does Madam have to intervene?"

Hearing this, Madam Yun turned sideways, leaned into his arms, and said softly, "Husband, before Daddy was exiled, my family lived on the same street as the Jiang Mansion."

"Although the princess and I are not close friends, we have known each other since childhood, and Lord Jiang has also been kind to my family."

"It would be fine if I didn't know about those things, but I clearly knew everything. How could I bear to watch the princess end up like that?"

"My husband, I know you have many political enemies in the court and your situation is very difficult. It is not wise to offend King Jing. But I also know that as long as my husband is willing, he can solve this matter without showing up, right?"

Yun Zheng: “…”

"Thank you for your high regard, madam. It seems that even if I don't want to be involved in this matter, I have to take care of it."

Hearing this, Madam Yun's eyebrows curved immediately, and she said in a very good mood, "So, my husband has agreed? Then I would like to thank my husband on behalf of the princess."

Yun Zheng raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "I agreed to help because I couldn't bear to see Madam worry about this matter. What does it have to do with the princess? Even if there is anyone to thank, it should be Madam who thanks me. Why would it make sense for her to thank me on behalf of the princess?"

The matter has been done. Mrs. Yun doesn't want to argue with him at all. Whatever he says is the truth.

"Yes, yes, my husband is right. He agreed to help me because of me. I thank him..."

Before she could finish her words, she was lifted up and held sideways. She was already used to all kinds of sudden hugs, and she subconsciously put her arms around his neck.

"Thanks are not just words. If you really want to thank your husband, then take some practical actions."

The hibiscus tent is warm in the cold winter nights.

In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.

Just as Yun Wanye had imagined, Mo Yuanhao took the arrowheads and swords left at the assassination scene that day. After some investigation, he found that these weapons came from the Military Equipment Bureau.

So he took people to the Military Equipment Bureau.

The Chief Inspector of Military Equipment retrieved the thin book, found the unique marks on the weapons, and quickly found out the whereabouts of the weapons.

"Your Highness, Prince Qi, this batch of military equipment was made by the subordinates of Duke Ningguo with documents, and they were all taken away half a year ago."

"What?"

Hearing this, a dark color flashed across Mo Yuanhao's eyes. He stood up and said solemnly, "Are you sure that the document is real?"

Seeing that he looked strange, the Chief Supervisor immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Reporting to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, the documents are of course not false. Military equipment is the most important weapon of the country. Every time I receive a document for making military equipment, I will check it carefully."

Mo Yuanhao narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then said, "Then do you remember which subordinate of Duke Ningguo was the one who came with the document to ask you to make military weapons? What was his name, what was his position, and how tall and what did he look like?"

"this……"

A series of questions left the Supervisor speechless, and he felt the cold sweat pouring down his body even more.

The Chief Supervisor wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, feeling very nervous.

"I saw that his document was genuine, so I didn't ask any further questions. Our Military Equipment Supervisor only recognizes documents and not people. Generally speaking, as long as we receive the documents, the Military Equipment Supervisor will be responsible for making the weapons~"

"So, you don't care who gets the weapons, or whether someone else takes the weapons in their place, right?"

Mo Yuanhao's face turned completely black.

If he had not come here, he would have had no idea that the military equipment supervision system of the Dawu Kingdom was so imperfect, had so many loopholes, and existed such serious problems.

No wonder someone dared to attack the imperial sister in the capital.

This means that the royal family is in trouble. Even if we continue to investigate, we will not be able to find them.

At this point, Lord Supervisor realized that there might be something wrong with this batch of military equipment, otherwise, it would not have alarmed the King of Qi.

Can't be so unlucky? Before he could think about it, the supervisor's knees went weak and he fell to the ground with a plop.

"Your Highness Prince Qi, please calm down. The document is indeed real. Moreover, the Cangyunling garrison under Duke Ningguo has always suffered from serious damage to military equipment, so I did not take it seriously."

"I never thought that someone would dare to use the name of Duke Ningguo to forge military equipment..."

Mo Yuanhao lowered his eyelids and looked at him coldly.

"This is the dereliction of duty of the Military Equipment Supervisor and a loophole in the system. As the Supervisor, you are unaware of the seriousness of these problems. You are simply not worthy of the position of Supervisor. Go and ask your brother for forgiveness."

After saying this, Mo Yuanhao led his men to leave the Military Equipment Bureau.

The Chief Supervisor was so disheartened that he collapsed to the ground, powerless.

The clue from the Military Equipment Bureau was completely cut off, so Mo Yuanhao had no choice but to start investigating Su Jian again.

The King of Qi's actions were soon reported to the Ningguo Mansion.

study.

Yun Wanye frowned and said, "Dad, the person behind the assassination of the princess has forged a batch of weapons in your name. This shows that this was premeditated. Should we also activate the emergency plan?"

"Although the King of Qi appears to have unwavering faith in us, the heart is hidden in the belly. Who knows what he is thinking?"

The clues from the Military Equipment Bureau have been cut off, and the King of Qi will definitely come to investigate them secretly.

As a member of the royal family, he would never allow anyone to dare to attack their royal family in the capital.

Therefore, no matter what, the matter will continue to be investigated, and a result must be found.

"How did you do the last time I asked you to do it?"

Yun Zheng did not answer him immediately, but asked back.

"I have found everything my father asked me to collect, but I have not found any progress on the people I secretly investigated on Su Jian's side."

"Okay, let's start planning. Since we can't get our Yun family out, then we can drag all the important figures in the capital into the water."

"Yes, don't worry, Dad. I will definitely do this beautifully."

* Wan'an Court.

Except for the two brothers Yun Zheng and Yun Zhan, the whole family gathered together.

Looking at the whole family living in harmony and peace, and then looking at Yun Wanchen sitting in the wheelchair, Yun Wanning frowned tightly on her face and kept muttering to herself.

[Hey, that's not right. Counting the days, my brother can clearly stand up. Why is he still sitting in a wheelchair? ]

[Could it be that something went wrong? ]

[This shouldn't be the case. Big brother has clearly practiced the Xiaoyao Nine Classics, and all his meridians are about to be healed. What could be the problem? ]

[Oh, I can't figure it out. I'll cry and ask big brother to hug me later. I must feel his pulse carefully to find out what's going on.]

【……】

Listening to Yun Wanning's thoughts, the other people in the Yun family who knew the situation looked at Yun Wanchen silently, especially Yun Wanyao, who sighed slightly in their hearts.

Oh, what a fool is the eldest brother. His legs are clearly healed, but he continues to pretend. He even warns her and Yun Wanye not to tell anyone that he is healed. I don’t know what he is pretending to do.

Look, he pretends to be happy, but my little sister is almost doubting her life.

"Wow……"

Suddenly, Yun Wanning burst into tears and stretched out her little arms to Yun Wanchen again.

[Forget it, forget it, let’s not wait any longer, let’s do it now. 】

[I want to see what kind of medical accident happened. This is not right no matter how you think about it.]

【Big brother, hold me, let me show you. 】

Everyone: “…”

"Don't cry, little sister. Don't cry, little sister. I will hold you."

Yun Wanyao reacted very quickly and went over to hug the crying Yun Wanning. Although she knew that she did it on purpose, she still couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw her crystal tears and red eyes.

"Don't cry, little sister."

She hugged Yun Wanning and rocked her, coaxing her softly.

“Woo…”

Yun Wanning continued to cry and continued to stretch her arms towards Yun Wanchen.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

[Sister, carry me to find my elder brother and let him carry me.]

[Sister is so smart and understands me so well, she will definitely understand what I mean, right? ]

“…”

Yun Wanyao pursed her lips and did not hug her immediately. Instead, she turned her head and looked at Yun Wanchen in embarrassment.

Big brother is pretending. If I really let me feel his pulse, I would definitely be able to tell. But I don’t know what big brother means. I don’t know if he wants me to know that he is pretending.

"My little sister seems to want me to hold her. Yaoer, bring her here."

Yun Wanchen smiled slightly and spoke softly.

[Wow, this time it was Big Brother who understood what I meant first. ]

[It seems that although my sister is smart and understands me, my brother is a little smarter than my sister and understands me a little better.]

Yun Wanyao: “…”

No, if she hadn't been concerned about her elder brother's intention, she would have understood it a long time ago, okay? It's a pity that my younger sister won't know her good intentions, alas.

"Give."

Walking to Yun Wanchen's side, Yun Wanyao bent down slightly and handed Yun Wanning over.

Yun Wanchen hugged her and said softly, "My little sister seems to have grown a little taller and gained a little weight."

[That's because babies grow fast and I eat a lot, so of course I've grown a lot.]

[Brother, I'm going to check your pulse. Don't put any force on this arm.]

Yun Wanning grabbed his arm that was placed above her body with both hands and pulled it out with force.

Seeing that she was using all her strength, Yun Wanchen smiled slightly, cooperated with her quietly, and raised his arm a little.

[Ah, no wonder people say it’s easier to get along with smart people. Look how cooperative my brother is. He knows what I mean when I pull his arm. It saves me a lot of effort.]

【This pulse condition...】

[There's clearly nothing wrong with his pulse. Big brother should have recovered a few days ago. Why can't he stand up yet? ]

[Could it be? Could it be?]

[Oh my god, why are you pretending when everything is fine? Who are you trying to fool? Isn't it uncomfortable to pretend? ]

[Let me think about it, is it because my mother forced me to get married that my eldest brother pretended to be like this? ]

[So is he pretending to be like this to avoid his mother's forced marriage, or is he trying to test the noble ladies in the capital, who is willing to stay with him forever? ]

[Okay, okay, as long as Big Brother is fine, you can pretend if you want, and you can lie if you want. ]

Yun Wanchen: “…”

Twins: “…”

Madam Yun: “…”

Several people looked at Yun Wanchen in unison, their eyes inquiring.

Mother had known for a long time that eldest brother's legs had healed. When he stood up, he asked someone to tell her. So she was very sure that he was pretending not to get married just to avoid being forced into marriage by mother.

So, could it be true that as my younger sister said, he was trying to deceive the noble ladies in the capital?

The more people thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Well, this is also a good way to choose a wife.

Although you may miss out on many noble ladies from prominent families, it is better not to have a lady who can only enjoy wealth but not share hardships with you.

Noticing everyone's gazes, Yun Wanchen sighed helplessly. It seemed that everyone had already determined that he was pretending in order to choose a wife.

[Eh, I feel like the looks from my mom, older sisters, and older brothers are a little weird.]

[What happened? Or is it my illusion? ]

[By the way, it has been a few days since the princess was assassinated. The family has been peaceful and calm recently. It seems that the incident of my father being framed should not have happened.]

[It's good that it didn't happen. This way, we can save a lot of trouble. 】

[However, if this is the case, the plot will go astray. I am not sure if the people who assassinated the princess are the same people in the original plot.]

【……】

Hearing this, Yun Wanye's whole body trembled instantly, and a gleam of light flashed across his eyes.

From what he said, does my sister really know who assassinated the princess?

Just because they didn't mention the fact that their father was framed in front of her, she thought the plot had gone astray? Thinking of this, Yun Wanye's eyes flashed and a plan came to her mind.

He pretended to be depressed and said, "Mom, big brother, Dad has encountered some problems recently. Our Yun family must have been secretly hostile to others."

"You should be careful these days. It's best not to go out alone. If you must go out, bring a few more people with you."

[What? What happened to Dad? ]

[Is it related to the assassination of the princess? ]

[Could you please speak faster? I am so anxious.]

【……】

Listening to Yun Wanning's thoughts and thinking of Yun Wanye's sudden words, Yun Wanchen's eyes moved slightly, and he thought of many things in an instant.

"What do you mean? Ye'er, what happened to Dad?"

"That's right, what happened to Dad?"

Yun Wanyao already knew the whole story, but she was not stupid after all. She thought that Yun Wanye must have his own reasons for saying this suddenly, so she joined in and pretended to be very anxious.

Only Madam Yun was kept in the dark. When she heard Yun Wanye's words, she thought that her act of asking Yun Zheng to help the princess had been exposed and she had offended King Jing.

She looked at Yun Wanye anxiously and said, "Ye'er, what happened to your father? What does it mean to be hostile? Tell me quickly."

"Mom, don't worry. Here's what happened. The princess was assassinated a few days ago..."

Yun Wanye spoke slowly and told the story in detail, and everyone listened very carefully.
