As soon as Murong Jin entered the room, Yi Liu was about to get off the bed to pay his respects, but said, "Just lie down there."
Yi Liu lay on the bed, looking at Murong Jin with a smile hidden in his eyes, "Master."
There were other people present, so Murong Jin didn't directly ask him about the men in black who appeared that night, especially about Yi Liu's death from poisoning.
"There's nothing seriously wrong with you now. Just rest and recuperate."
Yi Liu: "Yes, Master."
Li Mingzhong watched them, and finally watched helplessly as Murong Jin took Yi Liu away.
It was already evening when they returned to the palace. Murong Jin watched Empress Junlan packing her things. She remembered that tonight was the time to return to the training camp.
I'll start preparing for the individual competition tomorrow, and the individual battles will begin the day after tomorrow.
Di Junlan looked at Yi Liu, who was being carried on Yi Yi's back, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Getting ready to go back? Have you eaten?"
"I've eaten. I've already finished reading the memorials. When you're reading them, remember to let me know. If there's anything I don't understand, you can teach me when I get back from the competition."
Murong Jin: "Okay."
"By the way, what's Yi Liu like...?"
Murong Jin: "I got a little injured on the mission."
Yi Liu: "Your Majesty is well."
Emperor Junlan: "Hmm."
After Yi Yi left with his men, only Murong Jin and Di Junlan remained. "Since you're going back, here you go."
"What's this?"
Murong Jin tossed the item to him, her voice devoid of any emotion: "The brocade pouch, open it when you're in dire straits."
"good."
After Emperor Junlan mounted his horse and left, Murong Jin watched a figure follow him before returning to her residence.
With someone watching over Di Junlan, she didn't need to worry about him getting into trouble.
Once we reach the military camp, we'll be safe.
...
"master?"
"What is your relationship with Lingjiu Pavilion?"
Yi Liu paused, his eyes darting nervously and guiltily, then he pursed his lips and remained silent.
Yi Yi knew that his master wanted to question Yi Liu, so he stayed quietly to the side and listened to what they had to say.
"Master, I do not wish to continue..."
Murong Jin: "Okay."
Yi Liu looked up at her and said, "If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. But I will not let any of the people from Lingjiu Pavilion go."
His pupils contracted sharply. "Master, do you... know something?"
Murong Jin's eyes were indifferent. "The imperial court will not allow such an organization that indiscriminately kills innocent people to exist."
Yi Liu remained silent, then heard her say, "Since the Spirit Moxibustion Pavilion is not important to you, I intend to eliminate it. You shouldn't object, right?"
"Also known as the Sixth Young Master."
Yi Liu's body trembled.
Murong Jin sat there calmly, his voice serene, yet carrying a hint of pressure: "Perhaps, I should call you Xie Yunzhi?"
Yi Liu was speechless. Ignoring his injuries, he immediately jumped off the bed and knelt in front of Murong Jin.
"master……"
“I’m not blaming you.” Seeing the blood on his bandages, Murong Jin looked away. “You have a new identity, and I won’t interfere. But if you betray me, I won’t punish you.”
"Yi Liu has never betrayed his master."
Yi Yi stood aside; he was the young master of the Lingjiu Pavilion.
Yi Liu's identity is quite extraordinary.
However, Lingjiu Pavilion is an assassin's den. They dare not show their faces in the imperial court or the martial arts world because they have killed many officials appointed by the imperial court, as well as many famous figures in the martial arts world.
As long as you have money, and the money is right, they'll kill whoever you want, without distinguishing right from wrong.
Murong Jin looked at his expression and said, "I don't care about any of this."
Yi Liu looked up at her, and then heard, "I just want to know who poisoned your body with this Gu poison."
Gu poison.
Yi Liu's body trembled violently. "This subordinate did not..."
"Chen Mingfu".
Yi Liu fell silent.
It seems that the master has learned everything about him and investigated the matter thoroughly.
But he didn't understand why his master would suddenly want to investigate him. Was it because Chen Mingfu had said something to his master?
“Chen Mingfu is dead, so if you don’t want to talk about it, I can ask the Pavilion Master of Lingjiu Pavilion myself.”
Yi Liu's eyes were filled with conflict. The head of Lingjiu Pavilion was simply a madman, and he did not want his master to have any contact with that person.
"The poison used by my subordinates comes from the Western Regions."
Is there a solution?
Yi Liu shook his head. "There is no solution."
"Okay, you get some rest."
The sound of a wheelchair turning filled the air. Murong Jin turned and left, stopping at the door. "Let me ask you this," he said, "do you have any feelings for the Lingjiu Pavilion?"
"none."
Murong Jin: "Okay."
“Master, Yi Liu does not want you to get involved.”
Murong Jin: "Many people have died recently. As for Lingjiu Pavilion, I have already issued an arrest warrant for them."
After saying this, Murong Jin left, and Yi Yi helped the person up, saying, "If you ask me, we should be honest with each other about any problems. Our master treats us like brothers."
"Does the wound hurt?"
Yi Liu's lips were pale. "It hurts."
"Serves you right."
Also six! "..."
"The reason why the master is angry is not because you are hiding something from her, but because you don't value your own life."
Yi Liu hummed in agreement. “I understand, but there’s no antidote for this poison. It doesn’t matter whether I tell you or not… I don’t want to trouble you, Master.”
"A lot of people have died recently. Tell me what happened, especially what the Lingjiu Pavilion did?"
