I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 289 Thank you for the compliment.

"How dare you!" Mu Qi looked at Jiang Xue sternly.

Pei Zhijin protected Jiang Xue behind him.

Li Lingxuan raised his hand slightly, looked at Mu Qi with sharp eyes, and said coldly: "Don't be presumptuous."

Mu Qi then stepped aside.

Li Lingxuan looked at Jiang Xue hiding behind Pei Zhijin and said with a smile, "It's been a while since we last met. Miss Jiang has become even more eloquent."

"Humph, King Cheng is becoming more and more arrogant."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Pei Zhijin looked at Li Lingxuan coldly, "If the imperial prison doesn't release him today, will King Cheng force his way in?"

"How about I force my way in today?"

Pei Zhijin gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and said word by word: "That might disappoint King Cheng."

"Bring the person out to me." Li Lingxuan ordered loudly.

"Yes."

After receiving the order, Mu Qi drew out his sword and shouted, "Go to the prison and arrest him!"

"Who dares!" Wen Yu quickly drew out the sword from his waist, and then the Jinyiwei people in the imperial prison came out one after another and stood in front of Pei Zhijin and Jiang Xue.

"Break in." Li Lingxuan ordered lazily.

"Yes."

Mu Qi immediately stepped forward and was ready to fight. Pei Zhijin signaled Wen Yu with his eyes, and Wen Yu immediately understood and nodded, and started fighting with Mu Qi.

The two sides immediately started fighting in the snow. Jiang Xue looked at Pei Zhijin and said, "Prince Cheng just said that Wang Yun is from Qingyun Hall. Is that true?"

Pei Zhijin shook his head slightly and said softly: "I will explain this to you later."

Jiang Xue frowned, not knowing what Pei Zhijin was trying to say.

After a while, Wen Yu pretended that he couldn't beat Mu Qi and fell in the snow. Pei Zhijin pulled Jiang Xue aside, and Mu Qi and his men quickly walked in.

Li Lingxuan watched Jiang Xue being protected by Pei Zhijin behind him. His hands hidden in his sleeves clenched silently, and a layer of coldness appeared between his brows.

After a moment, Mu Qi ran out with a serious expression and said respectfully in front of Li Lingxuan: "Your Majesty, Wang Yun is dead."

"What?" Li Lingxuan frowned, then looked at Pei Zhijin and said, "How dare you torture me privately?"

Mu Qi said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, he died from a silver needle piercing his brain."

Li Lingxuan looked at Mu Qi and asked coldly, "Did you look carefully?"

"Yes."

Li Lingxuan raised his hand and said coldly: "Retreat."

Mu Qi bowed slightly and asked everyone to leave.

Li Lingxuan looked at Pei Zhijin and said, "Master Pei, your prison claims to be airtight, so how could someone die in there?"

"To be honest with you, King Cheng, Zeng Qin also died mysteriously in the imperial prison not long ago. I was asking someone to investigate, but unexpectedly, Wang Yun also died in prison."

"Do you know that Wang Yun is from Qingyun Hall?"

"I just found out about it." Pei Zhijin said calmly.

"Hmph, Master Pei, you should know that Qingyun Hall was wiped out five years ago and this intelligence collection was lost."

Pei Zhijin clenched his fists slightly after hearing this and said, "I know."

"That's good to know. If the intelligence collection falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, the Chili Kingdom will inevitably be in trouble. Lord Pei should understand what I mean, right?"

"King Cheng is right."

Li Lingxuan glanced at Jiang Xue, then told Mu Qi, "Let's go."

After King Cheng's men left, Wen Yu retracted his sword and looked at Pei Zhijin, "Sir, what should we do next?"

"Continue to secretly investigate everyone in the Imperial Prison."

"Yes."

After Wen Yu led people in, Jiang Xue looked at Pei Zhijin and asked, "What's going on?"

Pei Zhijin then spoke up and said, "Wang Yun was indeed a member of Qingyun Hall before, but I met him last night. He hid in the Wang family as a secret guard just to investigate the destruction of Qingyun Hall five years ago."

"Then why did he die suddenly?"

"Looking at that silver needle, I think he committed suicide."

"Suicide?" Jiang Xue frowned and asked, "What did he find out?"

Pei Zhijin said: "All the clues he found were cut off as soon as they reached King Cheng. In order to test King Cheng, I released the news to verify whether what Wang Yun said was true."

"Why did Wang Yun commit suicide?" Jiang Xue asked puzzled.

Pei Zhijin looked at Jiang Xue and said, "He betrayed Qingyun Hall before. Normally, people who betray Qingyun Hall must have a silver needle inserted into their brains and die as a token of apology, but Nian Wangyun had no choice, so I just expelled him from Qingyun Hall."

Jiang Xue suddenly asked, "Could it be that you forced him to commit suicide?"

"Am I that cruel?" Pei Zhijin said helplessly.

Jiang Xue suddenly smiled and said, "It doesn't look like it."

Pei Zhijin held his forehead silently.

Jiang Xue suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Pei Zhijin, "Will King Cheng doubt what happened today?"

"I don't know. If King Cheng was focused on finding the intelligence collection, he wouldn't think today was inappropriate."

"Then I hope he can focus on gathering intelligence."

"We'd better go back."

"kindness."

Qingyuan.

In the front hall, Lin Yiyi was standing in front of the window watching Wang Ziyan making a snowman in the yard. The snow outside had slowly stopped.

"Yiyi, how about my stack?" Wang Ziyan looked at Lin Yiyi with a bright smile.

Lin Yiyi looked at the chubby snowman with a smile, and the first thing that came to her mind was a panda. If it was painted more, it would look even more like a snowman.

"What are you piling up?" Lin Yiyi joked.

Wang Ziyan frowned slightly, took a few steps forward, looked at the snowman in front of him, and said, "Doesn't it look like it?"

"like what?"

Prince Yan walked quickly to the window and said with a smile, "Looks like you."

"What?" Lin Yiyi was surprised. She turned Wang Ziyan's head to the side and looked carefully at the chubby snowman. Then she squinted her eyes dangerously and said to Wang Ziyan, "Am I that fat?"

"Not fat." Wang Ziyan looked at the snowman he made again, then scratched his head awkwardly, "It seems a little bit."

Lin Yiyi reached out and grabbed Wang Ziyan's ear, gritted her teeth and said, "Is this how I look to you?"

Prince Yan immediately begged for mercy: "Madam, I was wrong, I was wrong."

Lin Yiyi couldn't bear to really hurt Wang Ziyan, so when she saw Wang Ziyan begging for mercy, she let go of her hand.

"Ma'am, do you want to play in the snow?"

Lin Yiyi looked at Wang Ziyan expectantly and said, "I want to build a snowman, too."

Wang Ziyan smiled with narrowed eyes, "You can't stand the cold, be good." Then he turned around and squatted in the snow to tinker with it.

Lin Yiyi shouted curiously: "What are you doing?"

After a moment, Wang Ziyan turned around and walked quickly to the window, showing the snowman he had just made to Lin Yiyi, "Does this look like you?"

Lin Yiyi looked over and saw that the snow-white snowman had a slender figure, with loose hair, and especially his eyes, which were bright and lively.

Lin Yiyi took the little snowman in surprise and said, "I didn't realize you have this skill?"

"I can do anything to make my wife happy."

"loquacious."

Wang Ziyan's eyes suddenly became affectionate, "I hope I can enjoy the snow with you every year in the future."

Lin Yiyi blushed slightly and said awkwardly: "Why are you suddenly so sentimental?"

Wang Ziyan smiled and suddenly moved closer to Lin Yiyi's pink lips.
