The host frowned. Although he understood Lan Qingruo's identity, he was quite dissatisfied with her statement.

"Donor, this matter is related to the reputation and innocence of my Baoyun Temple. I'm sorry that I can't do anything about it. This matter will be handed over to Dali Temple to get to the bottom of the investigation!"

Lan Qingruo lowered his head slightly, the viciousness in his eyes not concealed at all.

The host immediately called the young monk and went down the mountain to the city to report the incident to Dali Temple.

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple happened to be discussing matters with Huo Weilou at this time.

Baoyun Temple is also a temple that the current Queen Mother goes to once a year. Therefore, people from Baoyun Temple came to report the crime. It was still a murder. People from Dali Temple did not dare to neglect and quickly took the monk to the room of the young minister of Dali Temple.

"Don't be anxious, just explain the matter slowly." Ning Tongzhou, the young minister of Dali Temple, put down the documents in his hands and looked at him.

Ning Tongzhou was in his thirties or forties, and was in his prime years as a minister. His family had been serving in Dali Temple for generations. He was highly trusted by the saints and was an upright person.

It's just that Ning Tongzhou was favored by the old regent, so he took great care of Huo Weilou. The old regent knew Ning Tongzhou's character well and entrusted Huo Weilou to him before his death. Although Ning Tongzhou didn't know Huo Weilou's true identity, he had some clues about it.

guess.

Huo Weilou was at Dali Temple today, and he came to Ning Tongzhou to discuss business matters.

The young monk told Ning Tongzhou everything that happened in Baoyun Temple.

"How could such a thing happen?" Ning Tongzhou stroked his beard and pondered.

The Buddha statue bleeds and sheds tears, which is impossible in the eyes of the young minister of Dali Temple. What's more, a corpse suddenly appears?

Ning Tongzhou thought, there must be someone behind this. But what exactly does this troublemaker want to do?

Judging from the description of the young monk, what those who did these tricks just wanted to do was to make this matter public so that it could be investigated by Dali Temple to find out the truth of the matter and the murderer of the two people.

Huo Weilou's emotions were all hidden in his eyes. He didn't speak. He just sat aside and thought about the murder case with great interest.

Ning Tongzhou did not make the young monk wait any longer, and soon he made a decision.

"This matter is of great importance. I don't feel comfortable letting others handle it. In this case, I will go back to Baoyun Temple with you and investigate the matter personally!" Ning Tongzhou made the decision.

He put away the documents in his hand, stood up, and saluted towards Huo Weilou: "Your Majesty, I forgive you for being absent from me today. When this murder case is understood, I will come back to discuss important matters with you."

"Which temple did you just say it was?" Huo Weilou stood up and came to the young monk.

The young monk hesitated. It was the first time he saw the regent. He was so shocked that he could not speak: "The donor... back to the prince, it is Baoyun Temple."

Huo Weilou remembered that several female relatives from the Regent's Palace went to Baoyun Temple.

Thinking of Shen Xinyue's pretty face, Huo Weilou's heart softened.

"I went with you to Baoyun Temple to investigate the case. Speaking of which, my mother and princess are also at Baoyun Temple."

Huo Weilou spoke, and Ning Tongzhou had no reason to refuse.

Ning Tongzhou called two more people from Dali Temple, and they went up the mountain together.

But when we arrived at Baoyun Temple, the sky had already darkened.

Ning Tongzhou called all the people involved in the murder to the Buddha statue, and the presiding officer protected the scene fairly well, and no one came to destroy every plant or tree here.

When Huo Weilou saw Shen Xinyue safe and sound, the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Ning Tongzhou focused on questioning Lan Qingruo and Nanny Li.

Huo Weilou came to Shen Xinyue's side calmly, stretched out his hand and squeezed Shen Xinyue's hand.

"Why are you here?" Shen Xinyue asked softly, feeling a little surprised in her heart.

"I happened to be talking to Ning Shaoqing. When I heard about this, I thought of you, so I came here." Huo Weilou was also surprised that he would explain to Shen Xinyue.

Huo Weilou saw that this matter was closely related to the people in the palace, so he asked Shen Xinyue about the flower picker.

Shen Xinyue told Huo Weilou about the matter, but kept the matter of exchanging the incense burner and blood and tears secret.

"Fragrance?" Huo Weilou heard that Shen Xinyue smelled the fragrance, and coupled with Shen Xinyue's reaction, he understood that this matter was related to Shen Xinyue, and the relationship was not small.

Huo Weilou lowered his eyes. When he was alone, he wanted the secret guard to tell him the whole story.

After Ning Tongzhou finished asking, he came to ask Huo Weilou what he thought.

"Checha Mixiang." Huo Weilou said calmly.

Since Shen Xinyue said it smelled like incense, he believed it. Others said it didn't, but Huo Weilou looked at them carefully, followed his heart, and believed Shen Xinyue.

"The prince and your subordinates think alike." Ning Tongzhou stroked his beard and asked the people he brought to check the incense burner in Lan Qingruo's room.

It's just that Lan Qingruo has already disposed of the incense burner, so she doesn't think these people can find anything.

But she couldn't guarantee that if the young minister of Dali Temple personally investigated the case, her actions would be concealed.

"Brother Weilou, I don't smell the fragrance. There's no need to check this. It's a waste of time. Or, brother Weilou, do you believe the princess's words?" Lan Qingruo looked like I felt pity for him, with his eyes turning.

Huo Weilou took a step back, as if he had encountered some ferocious beast. "You are Zi Yao's wife. You should call me Prince. You can't be so unruly. Otherwise, what will other people think of me as the regent of the palace?"

"I understand, Your Majesty..." Lan Qingruo's eyes gradually became moist.

No matter how much Lan Qingruo said, Huo Weilou wouldn't listen to a word.

Lan Qingruo looked at the old princess for help, and the old princess glared at her. Although she didn't want to help her anymore, she would be both prosperous and devastated.

The old princess finally spoke: "Dangerous buildings don't have the smell of incense. This is just Shen Xinyue's one-sided statement. Maybe she has been harmed by incense in the past, so she is too sensitive."

"Needless to say, this matter is related to the reputation of the Prince Regent's Palace."

"If word spreads, my regent's office will interfere with Dali Temple's investigation of the case, disrupt the view, and hide clues."

"What will the world think of me as regent of the house?"

"If word of the flower-picking thief spreads, what will happen to your reputation, Lan Qingruo? What will happen to Huo Ziyao?"

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated!"

No one can question Huo Weilou's decision.

Neither the old princess nor Lan Qingruo could stop it, so they had no choice but to compromise.

With the help of Huo Weilou, all the pilgrims in Baoyun Temple and those related to the incident were kept in the temple and were not allowed to leave the mountain.

Even when the old princess wanted to return to the palace, Huo Weilou forced her to stay in Baoyun Temple.

"Huo Weilou! I am your mother!" The old princess shouted hoarsely and became angry.

"But you are also the person related to this matter! I will enforce the law impartially." Huo Weilou snorted coldly.

The old princess had no choice but to lose her temper, but she was no match for Huo Weilou's current power. She only wished she had not killed Huo Weilou earlier!

Several people went back to their rooms, leaving only the people from Dali Temple investigating for clues.

The old princess went to Lan Qingruo's room and asked Nanny Li to guard the door.

"Qingruo, have you made all arrangements?"

Lan Qingruo thought about it and thought that he should have handled it properly, "Mother, it has been handled."

"Those two people died without evidence, and the incense burner that contained the incense has been disposed of by me."

"This case is being investigated by Dali Temple Shaoqing Ning. He is very capable in investigating cases. You must be careful!"

The old princess frowned, feeling depressed.

When Lan Qingruo saw this, he stood up, took the cakes, and made a cup of tea for the old princess, "Mother, drink tea, don't think about those troublesome things."

The old princess took a sip of tea and then ate two pieces of cake.

"Qingruo, don't be so anxious about things. What happened this time was that you were too anxious, and that's why Shen Xinyue took advantage of the loophole!" The old princess hated the fact that iron cannot be transformed into steel.

Although this person can help Huo Ziyao and has many calculations, he is not smart enough. She always feels that if Lan Qingruo continues to be so stupid, sooner or later, he will harm Huo Ziyao!

"What mother taught me is that I will definitely learn from it." Lan Qingruo knew that she was in the wrong. If the old princess hadn't spoken for her, she might not have had the chance to deal with the aftermath.

The old princess was dissatisfied and continued: "You have to keep your eyes open when hiring people. You can't just use everyone. If you use the wrong people, you will not only fail to get the job done, but you will also make yourself embarrassed, and you will not end up well in the end. However, Sometimes using people doesn’t necessarily mean letting them do things for you, and..."

Lan Qingruo always felt that there was something in the old princess's words, and she was filled with doubts. When the old princess saw this, she pointed in the direction of the room of Shen Xinyue's concubine, Shen Fengjiao.

"Mother, I understand."

Lan Qingruo's heart sank.

It was her idea that hit a dead end.

She should have thought of it a long time ago, but it's not too late now.

On the other side, Shen Xinyue's room.

"Yue'er, are they plotting against you?" Huo Weilou was a little annoyed.

These people are always short-sighted, always scheming against Shen Xinyue, and even want to destroy her.

He had already figured out the cause and effect.

It must be the old princess, Lan Qingruo and others who want to use Mixiang to assassinate Shen Xinyue again, but Shen Xinyue is cautious this time and will not fall into their trap like the marriage exchange incident.

And the so-called flower picker's initial target should be Shen Xinyue!

"Yeah, if they don't count on me for a day, I might feel uncomfortable all over." Shen Xinyue shrugged disapprovingly.

"Tell me what's going on." Huo Weilou's tone left no room for doubt.
