Chapter 393: Is the emperor crazy?

Chapter 393 Is the emperor crazy?

"My lord, you can finish your dinner, and the servant has brought you tea."

The maid knocked on the door, but got no response from Su Ying. After knocking for a while, the maid tentatively opened the door and walked in.

She saw that the food on the table was finished, and Su Ying also fell asleep on the bed.

Seeing this, the servant girl packed up the dishes and left, and then came to Yi Kun, "My lord, the lord from the capital has fallen asleep."

Yi Kun frowned in displeasure, why did he feel that this person was unreliable, and he was not in a hurry to solve such an important matter, as if he was not in a hurry at all until now.

"My lord, you said... he didn't find any flaws?"

Yi Kun had a gloomy look in his eyes, "What does he know?"

When the little official saw it, he shrank his neck in fright, "Did your lord verify his identity? Is he really an official from the capital?"

"The guard has seen the token in his hand. It's true from above, but he has never revealed his identity." This is also where Yi Kun is uncertain. There is no news from the capital that the emperor will end up this time. Who sent over to send the original picture.

For such an important thing, the person who sent the picture must not be a simple character.

"What did he bring?"

"The little one didn't see anything, just a burden, it doesn't look like there are blueprints."

Yi Kun's gloomy face said, "Go and see tonight."

"yes."

As the night deepened, a black figure sneaked outside the guest room door, holding a misty cigarette in his hand and blowing it in through the gap in the window.

A moment later, the figure gently opened the window and jumped in.

By the pale moonlight, the figure found Su Ying's bag and opened it to search, only to find that there were only one or two changes of clothes inside, as well as the token and customs clearance spy.

It was written on the espionage that the person who came was a guard with a knife in front of the imperial court.

The imperial guards have high martial arts skills and are suitable for the candidates sent by the emperor. It's just where the blueprints are placed.

The man searched for nothing but left first.

The man didn't notice that Su Ying, who was lying on the bed, kept watching his every move with eyes open.

After confirming that the other party had left, Su Ying turned over and sat up and went out the window to the guest room where Zhu Lin was.

Reflecting the dim candlelight outside the door, Su Ying could see two people guarding outside.

Su Ying came to Zhu Lin's bed and pinched his mouth open and stuffed a pill into it. When she came over during the day, she found that the boy was poisoned, but the amount of poison was not fatal, so she didn't rush to take action.

After feeding the medicine, Su Ying took out the detoxification needle and injected it into him. In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhu Lin's pale face slowly recovered some vitality.

Su Ying took out the silver needle, grabbed his finger and stuck it in, squeezing out a few drops of blood.

Zhu Lin opened his eyes faintly, saw someone grabbing his hand and raised his hand to hit him.

Su Ying quickly turned around and grabbed his wrist, before he opened his mouth, he whispered, "Shut up, it's me."

Zhu Lin could hear Su Ying's voice, but he still widened his eyes in shock. He thought he might be hallucinating, otherwise how could Su Ying still have a man's face in this ghostly place.

Su Ying saw him gradually calm down before letting go, "Don't doubt it, it's me, tell me, what's going on with you?"

Zhu Lin came back to his senses and confirmed again that the person in front of him was Su Ying, and that look was absolutely correct.

Zhu Lin clutched his chest and sat up. Thinking of the experience during this time, his blood surged up, and he was so angry.

"The emperor asked me to check the progress of the dam construction. When I first arrived, everything was normal, but not long ago, a part that had been built was loose and collapsed. I realized that something was wrong, so I immediately reported it to the emperor. "

At the beginning, these officials in Jingzhou City were very cooperative, actively looking for the cause of the problem of the dam, saying that there was a problem with the sand and gravel used in that piece, and it would be enough to just destroy it and rebuild it. He got the news and brought When the craftsman from Beijing was going to confirm the situation, the craftsman suddenly slipped and fell into the water and drowned.

"At that time, I felt that the situation was wrong, but the craftsman was dead. I was worried that they would attack me, so I pretended to be stupid and waited for the court to send someone down. But before the news got out that night, I suddenly fell ill."

Before he fell into a coma, he tried his best to get his cronies to send a letter to the capital quickly, but he was worried that the news would be intercepted, so he didn't speak too bluntly.

What surprised him was that the court's assistance came, but what he didn't expect was that the person who came was Su Ying.

"You mean, these people have tampered with the dam."

Zhu Lin nodded and shook his head again, "I don't have conclusive evidence, but judging from their performance, the problem in Xinba now must be related to them."

Su Ying frowned when she heard the words, the dam is related to the lives of thousands of people, which is no small matter.

"The queen brought the original picture?"

Su Ying nodded.

"The empress didn't give them the original picture, did she?"

"not yet."

Zhu Lin exhaled, "It's a good thing they didn't give it. I suspect they just wanted to destroy the blueprint."

"What is your empress going to do?"

Su Ying's eyes were dark, the problem of the dam must have something to do with Yi Kun and the others, but Zhu Lin and the others dared to attack, let alone other people, there might be someone behind the scenes who wanted to use this incident to make trouble.

"You tell me all the information you have, and then continue to pretend to be dizzy. I will deal with the rest."

Zhu Lin was a little worried. If this matter was not handled properly, many people would even die.

"What is your empress going to do?"

Su Ying narrowed her eyes, "Let them know that Ben Gong is here."

It is actually a very risky decision to reveal Su Ying's identity, but if things go well, it will also be a great opportunity for the empress to win the hearts of the people.

Risk and opportunity coexist, and Su Ying chooses the latter.

Early the next morning.

Yi Kun was about to find someone to inquire about Su Ying's situation, when he saw the little official rushing in.

"My lord, my lord, come, come."

Yi Kun said displeasedly: "Be clear, what's coming?"

"The empress is here."

"What?"

Yi Kun thought he heard it wrong, "Is the empress here?"

Yi Kun didn't believe it was true until he saw Su Ying's phoenix driving outside the city guard's mansion.

"The next official sees the empress, the empress is blessed."

Su Ying got off the carriage, and swept Yi Kun's face indifferently, "Get up."

"Yes, please, empress."

Su Ying followed Yi Kun into the Chengshou Mansion, and was regarded as a guest of honor. Yi Kun stood aside and felt uneasy, wondering why the Queen had suddenly arrived in Jingzhou.

"I heard that there was a problem with the Cangjiang Dam, and the emperor sent me here with the original picture of the dam."

Yi Kun was taken aback when he heard that, is the emperor crazy?
