The night passed quickly.
Xie Xunzhi, who had experienced the baptism, appeared even more charming.
Liu Yikang left after washing up with Xie Xuanzhi.
However, before he left.
However, Liu Yikang specifically instructed that they should not let down their guard against Empress Sun and must be careful.
Xie Yunzhi nodded to express her understanding.
In fact, she had long discovered Sun Taifei's abnormality, but she did not have any evidence.
Other than that, Liu Yikang also passed the perfume formula to Xie Yunzhi.
The other party was born in the Xie family and was now the princess consort.
His identity was extremely noble.
Not only could the problem of sales be solved.
He didn't have to worry about people being jealous and having the thought of snatching it.
After all, Xie Xunzhi had the backing of both the Prince Pengcheng's Mansion and the Xie Clan.
In the entire Great Song Dynasty, who would dare to offend them?
In Wende Hall, under Liu Yikang's leadership, the court session was held as usual.
The matters that the ministers requested were all recorded in a book. After Liu Yikang made a decision, Emperor Wen of Song would take a look and officially issue it.
After the court meeting ended, Liu Yikang did not stay.
He returned to the Imperial Residence.
In the Qian Palace, Emperor Wen of Song took a few glances at the booklet that had been delivered before placing it back on the table.
Obviously, he was not interested in these things.
"Charles, what do you think about the assassination attempt on Prince Pengcheng yesterday?”
Emperor Wen of Song said,
He controlled an extremely mysterious spy department.
It could be said that every move in Jiankang City was within his control.
It was also because of this that he knew about the assassination in King Pengcheng's mansion the moment it happened.
However, there were many things that Emperor Wen could not figure out.
That was why he was asking Charles at this moment.
Charles had already heard about the assassination that happened in King Pengcheng's mansion.
He knew that because of this matter, Liu Yikang had taken Lu Yuan away last night.
He forced her to swear an oath to prove her innocence.
Therefore, when he heard Emperor Wen of Song's question, Charles immediately cupped his hands and replied,
" Last night, the assassin took advantage of the Imperial Consort Sun's birthday to assassinate her, causing countless deaths and injuries in King Pengcheng's Mansion. This servant thought that this should be a premeditated assassination, but since Lu Hujun dared to swear a poison oath to prove his innocence last night, it shouldn't be him…This servant also doesn't understand, who in Jiankang City has such power…"
Charles was already frowning as he spoke. Clearly, he really had no clue about this matter.
Emperor Wen nodded when he heard Charles's answer.
"So, there should be a force that we don't know about in Jiankang City. By the way, the Heavenly Fragrance Dance Studio should send someone to investigate. Who are those people? They dare to assassinate fourth brother.”
Emperor Wen of Song said with an angry expression,
This was not because he cared about the friendship between brothers, but because Liu Yikang was now a key chess piece he arranged to play against the Shi clan.
If Liu Yikang was killed, then he would have to face the pressure of the aristocrats.
Emperor Wen of Song was not fully prepared yet.
Naturally, he did not want to expose himself too early.
When Liang Chao heard Emperor Wen of Song's question, he did not dare to neglect it.
He hurriedly cupped his hands and replied,
"Your Majesty, the people from the Heavenly Fragrance Dance Workshop have already investigated. They are from an organization called the Vermilion Bird Alliance. They usually use the name of eliminating evils for the people and specialize in assassinating officials. This time, they infiltrated the Pengcheng King's residence and should have targeted His Highness!”
Emperor Song Wen's expression immediately darkened.
"Vermillion Bird Alliance, it's them again…These people are really audacious. Do they really think I can't destroy them!”
Emperor Song Wen shouted angrily. Clearly, he had long known about the Vermillion Bird Alliance.
It was because in the past few years, many of his trusted officials had been killed by this organization.
It was also for this reason.
That was why Emperor Wen of Song had not been able to resist the power of the gentry.
On the other side, in the orphanage.
Because he was too tired yesterday, by the time Shen Lige woke up, it was already noon.
At this moment, there were a few children playing in the courtyard.
Meanwhile, Granny Song was preparing lunch for everyone.
"Miss, you're awake!"
Upon seeing Shen Lige come out, Granny Song immediately greeted,
Shen Lige nodded slightly in response.
However, right at this moment, they suddenly heard a violent knock on the door.
" Open the door, open the door. The government is searching for assassins…"
Hearing the sound that rang out from outside, Shen LiGe's expression immediately changed.
Search for assassins!
Wasn't he looking for her?
Shen Lige panicked in his heart and immediately wanted to find a place to hide.
Although Granny Song didn't know that Shen Lige was an assassin.
However, he knew that Chen Shaoxun and his group were mostly ordinary people and did not like to deal with the government.
Therefore, Granny Song immediately stopped Shen Lige and said,
"Miss, this way!"
As Granny Song spoke, she opened the door to the courtyard where she usually kept her junk.
Seeing this, Shen Lige naturally would not hesitate.
He immediately hid inside.
Granny Song was also quick to move. She quickly called a few children to block the door with firewood.
At the same time, he instructed everyone not to say anything.
