* When Xie Jiuyan arrived with his people, the forest that had just passed a battle had already fallen silent.The forest was full of corpses, the black-clothed dead soldiers and the people of Qingyunxuan were mixed together, blood was stained all over their bodies, they couldn't distinguish each other, and the bloody smell of killing permeated the four fields, and Xie Jiuyan, who was used to seeing this, didn't feel cold.In the end, it's a step late.Xie Jiuyan pursed his lips tightly, his hand pressed on the scabbard, and when he thought that Xie Sibai might be one of them, he couldn't stop the surging murderous intent in his heart.Senior brother can't be fine.Jiuyan ordered people to look for them one by one, he followed the blood stains on the ground, all the way deep into the forest, and finally the blood stains became less and less, and gradually became mottled, he looked up, but saw that in the pile of dead bodies, there was a living person.The moon-white clothes on the man's body were dyed so that he couldn't see his true face, blood flowed from the sword, he supported his body with the sword, half-knelt on the ground, and held a person in his arms, like Shura killed in the bush of ten thousand corpses.Xie Jiuyan recognized who it was, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly called: "Senior brother!"
”Xie Sibai didn't look back.Jiuyan walked over quickly, and only then did he see the person in his arms, he was in a hurry, and he was busy checking his pulse, but fortunately, he still had a breath.Ding'an's body was not clean, and her little face was also covered with blood, which was shocking in contrast to her own fair complexion.If it weren't for the pulse, Jiuyan almost thought that she was no longer alive."
Senior brother."
Jiu Yan raised his head and was stunned after seeing Xie Sibai's face clearly.Xie Sibai lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes were also stained with blood, and his eyes were hollow and numb, without a trace of waves.Jiu Yan was unconsciously afraid, he knew that the scene in front of him was very similar to that time, lest his senior brother fall into it again and not be able to get out.After a stalemate like this, he finally heard Xie Sibai speak: "Is there anyone still alive?"
”“…… Without. ”Xie Sibai clenched the scabbard of the sword, held Ding'an with one hand, and staggered to his feet.Jiuyan wanted to take Ding'an from his arms: "Senior brother......"
Xie Sibai didn't let go.He returned from the forest with Ding'an in his arms, and there was no place to put his feet in the forest.Xie Sibai hugged Ding'an into the carriage and said, "Take her back." ”Jiuyan was slightly stunned: "Then ...... you" "Those people are not just here for Ding'an. ”Xie Sibai's expression was silent and he didn't look at him, "If what I think is right, Mr.
Mao should be in danger." ”In this current situation, it is obvious that something has happened in Jingzhong that they don't know, and if he goes back now, it is tantamount to sending him to death.Xie Sibai ignored it, although he was still alive, he was like a walking corpse, and he couldn't listen to any words from others.Jiu Yan knew that he couldn't let him come around, so he made a decisive move and slapped him on the back of the neck.Xie Sibai's figure shook slightly, and he collapsed with his eyes closed.Chapter 120, 120 In the past, when Xie Zan was still teaching him, he once said: "Zhaoming, you have more than enough intelligence, but your heart is insufficient, and you are young and vigorous in the end, thinking that as long as you are willing, there is nothing in the world."
But you must keep in mind that people are human beings in the end, no matter how much they are calculated, no matter how well they are planned, they are still human beings, and people are not as good as heaven. ”It is bound to be successful, no matter how carefully planned, if you can't borrow the east wind, you can't borrow it.Unintentional words are the most one-word prophecy.Xie Sibai was temporarily trapped in Tong County.Two days later, Fuyuki and Haruga came out of Beijing to meet up, and they figured out what had happened before and after.Rewind the clock to a few days before you will leave the palace.When Empress Shao's grounding order was first issued, when Ding'an met with Xu Xiang, another person carefully avoided the eyes of Qingyunxuan in the palace, and came by an inconspicuous firewood cart at night, and secretly met Emperor Yongping.Rewind the clock back to a month ago.Shao Yi once asked his subordinate Xu Mao to check on Qingyunxuan, although Xu Mao did not find anything unusual, but Shao Yi has always been a suspicious person, and he is not very convinced of this.On the surface, he still pretended to ask Xu Mao to investigate carefully, but behind his back, he sent his henchmen to follow the clues of the old case to find it.I don't want to be this time, and he really found something.Xie Sibai has always done things without leakage, and he never travels in all aspects that can be expected.The plan of the little county king Jin Cicada to get out of his shell, it was inevitable that Emperor Yongping sent someone to check it, and he prepared two dead corpses in the morning to replace them.The two bodies were death row inmates in prison, and were thrown into mass graves after execution.Kasuga deliberately ordered people to select people who were similar in size to the replaced and who were not registered in the local area, so as to avoid the families of the prisoners from coming to the door to identify the body for burial.But he didn't want one of the prisoners to be the only son in the family, and when he learned that the crime was sentenced to death, the old mother of the family brought his daughter-in-law to Beijing together, and it happened that he arrived in Beijing two or three days after the execution.The old mother was blind for crying for her only son, but the daughter-in-law was not blind, and she recognized that a few bodies were not her own men, and she was prevaricated by the jailer, and when she saw that the entanglement was exhausted, she had to turn around and return to her hometown.This is a very small thing, and it is not surprising that the management of mass graves is chaotic and things like throwing corpses happen from time to time.But Shao Yi is a careful person, and after accidentally hearing about this, he found that the time of the body was just before the burning of the county king's mansion, so he had an idea.If Xie Sibai was really an old man back then, he would definitely protect the little county king, and the county king's mansion counted many people afterwards, which means that he had prepared a corpse to die in advance.Either the body was a living person, or it was found from a mass grave.And the latter must be a person who has recently been executed, otherwise the degree of decay is too high to be easily recognized at a glance.Stealing the corpse, Lin Xian rebelled, and took advantage of the chaos to burn down the county palace that night.These three things echo back and forth, time can't be too long, if any link goes wrong, this golden cicada's plan to get out of the shell will not work.Among them, Lin Xianmou's opposition to everyone is an immeasurable uncertaintie, and only Shao Yi knew that Mao Gong had done something, so he got the news early in the morning.And if Xie Sibai wants to estimate the timing, he must also know about it, which means that Mao Gong is related to Xie Sibai.This can also explain why he, a person with great powers, can't find out the details of Qingyun Xuan for a long time.Things are peeling off the cocoon and gradually gaining eyebrows after thinking about it.Shao Yi is different from Lin Xian, Lin Xian grew up in the army, with a bit of gangsterism, straightforward, and doesn't like to engage in those twists and turns.Shao Yi is a Wenchen, who is used to all kinds of roundabout methods, and he always likes to think about it more than ordinary people.And he is always scheming, treacherous and changeable by nature, no matter how he behaves on his face, he can't really trust others, he has long doubted why Xu Mao wants to help him so dedicatedly, so it is a conclusion.This layer of back, can be pushed out, even if Xie Sibai is not the Bai family, at least it has something to do with the events of the year.But all this is utopian, there is no real evidence, and with Xie Sibai's meticulousness, it is absolutely impossible to leave him evidence.Shao Yi is not quiet, she is still wrestling with Xu Maoxu and the snake on weekdays, and secretly does not give up, so she sent someone to look for it, but most of what she can find is the fur, not the inside.This dragged on for a whole month, until Empress Shao was grounded and made a lot of trouble.Shao Yi read the family letter sent back by Empress Shao, the sixteenth emperor Ji somehow wanted to go to Puji Temple to pray for blessings, Empress Shao vaguely heard that she was not very sane, I think it was Emperor Yongping who didn't want to make a name for the family scandal before making this decision, and Emperor Yongping's sudden serious illness was also related to this matter.The Chen and Bai families have always been the untouchable scales in Emperor Yongping's heart, and even this time he insisted on punishing Empress Shao regardless of Shao Yi's face, which was also due to this.Shao Yi had a flash of inspiration and thought about it.It doesn't matter if he gets the evidence or not, the important thing is that Emperor Yongping is willing to believe it.This is different from the Lin family.If the Lin family commits any more crimes, they will never be involved in the case of the year, so the evidence must be conclusive to bring it down.But the affairs of the first emperor, the abolished prince and Chen Bai are different.The emperor came to the throne improperly, and he always had a weak heart when he mentioned it.Emperor Yongping can also be regarded as Shao Yi's assistant to the throne, and no one understands how suspicious this emperor is.So Shao Yi used the leftovers he found to forge the documents and entered the palace overnight.When Emperor Yongping heard that Xie Sibai was related to the Bai family, he was as if he had been trampled on by someone, and he was furious.As expected by Shao Yi, he didn't even check the authenticity in detail, so he immediately made a decision.Xie Sibai, must die.Emperor Yongping had already killed Ding'an, but he didn't want to see her die in front of him, so he planned to wait for her to go to Puji Temple and then secretly send someone to deal with it.Coincidentally, before leaving the palace, Shao Yi entered the palace again, so he simply decided to do it together.The people and things related to the abolition of the crown prince by the former emperor cannot be put on the table, and Xie Sibai is a strict person, if he misses this opportunity, it will be difficult to find fault with him in the future.After all this, there was the matter of Yingzhou.Xie Sibai didn't know these specific details, but he heard that Shao Yi had met Emperor Yongping in private, and he roughly guessed the means he used.The only thing that can make Emperor Yongping lose his mind and act like this is the old day.It doesn't matter whether Shao Yi really has empirical evidence or is just framed.The important thing is that their plans had to be brought forward.Wang Yanyuan originally followed Zhao Jingxuan, the king of Xiaojun, to Dingzhou, and when he heard that Xie Sibai was injured, he hurriedly came all the way.He heard a lot about the tragic situation in Yingzhou, thinking that Xie Sibai's life would not be long this time, so he did not complain about the bumps on the road, and quickly whipped up to Tongxian.The large courtyard of Tongxian Sanjin, hidden in the deep alley of the market, is the temporary station of Qingyunxuan.As soon as Wang Yanyuan entered the courtyard gate, he eagerly searched for someone, but what he saw was Xie Sibai with a muslin cloth tied to bandage his wounds, talking to Dongxue in the study.Wang Yanyuan, who trespassed without permission: "......"
This is not at all the same as the picture he imagined."
Mr.
Wang!"
Behind him, Kasuga hurriedly caught up, "Wrong, not this way." ”Xie Sibai reacted quickly and bowed his hand very politely: "Mr.
Wang." ”Wang Yanyuan's expression was a little distorted, and it took a while for a while to say to Xie Sibai stiffly: "You're not dead." ”The spring, winter, snow and autumn rhymes present were speechless."
Why does the old gentleman ask if people are dead or not as soon as they meet, bad luck."
It happened that Jiuyan came back from the front of the hall, saw Wang Yanyuan, who had not been seen for a long time, and teased casually.After that, he threw the plum in his hand, caught it and took a bite, "Hey, it's so sour." ”Wang Yanyuan was not a good-tempered person, so he immediately frowned and turned his head, wanting to see which boy was so rude, but what he saw was Xie Jiuyan, who had threatened him with a sword.…… That's fine.Wang Yanyuan cleared his throat and said pretendly: "I see that my son's face is fine, it must not be a big deal, I don't know why I sent someone from Dingzhou to invite me 'thousands of miles'?"
”The implication is that a big fart will not happen.It wasn't as bad as the sword it was stabbed last time.Xie Jiuyan hated the way these literati spoke in a weird manner, he raised his eyebrows and was about to go back, Xie Sibai glanced at him first.Jiuyan was still afraid of his senior brother, so he had to keep his voice shut and gnaw on plums and go into the house."
It's not me who Mr. wants to see."
Xie Sibai said."
I'm talking about other things on the way, and I haven't had time to finish it yet."
Haruhi touched the back of his head embarrassedly, and then pointed out the way forward for Wang Yanyuan, "Please sir, it's the little highness of our family who is looking." ”Wang Yanyuan thought about it, it could only be the sixteenth emperor in the palace, he looked at Xie Sibai in surprise, and returned the salute of the general: "The son is so capable, can the people in the palace be brought out by you?"
”Xie Sibai: "......"
Wang Yanyuan covered his lips and coughed, and got back to business: "What's wrong with that little highness?"
”Again, it's a long story.Although the situation was urgent that day, under the cover of Xie Sibai, Ding'an was unharmed.She had never seen such a scene before, and she was too stimulated to faint.But since she passed out that day, she has not woken up.I asked a doctor to see it, but there was no danger of life, but I couldn't find the right symptom to treat it.Only then did he have to invite Wang Yanyuan from Dingzhou.Wang Yanyuan subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to brush his beard, but halfway through it he remembered that he didn't keep it.He withdrew his hand embarrassedly and said, "Your Highness, this illness is interesting." ”Fortunately, Jiuyan is not here, otherwise he would have to care about his words.Xie Sibai got up and personally led Wang Yanyuan to the courtyard where Ding'an lived, Lu Wu and Si Qin were guarding the side, and when they saw people coming to salute, they let go.In the heavy curtains, she lay quietly inside, her eyes closed, her face was bloodless, if it weren't for the slight trembling of her long eyelashes, it was difficult to see that she was a living person.is not in the palace, so naturally there is no need for so much hypocrisy.Wang Yanyuan stretched out his hand to probe Ding'an's forehead, and then took her hand to check the pulse.Wang Yanyuan closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, then let go of his hand.The green turnip is given to tuck the corners well.Kasuga was anxious and hurriedly asked, "How?"
”"In "Su Wen", it is said that 'if you are shocked, your heart has nothing to rely on, God has no place to go, you have no choice in worry, so you are angry'.His Royal Highness was suddenly frightened, and his heart was not smooth, which was really a sign of palpitations. ”The author has something to say: Tomorrow is a day off Chapter 121, 121 Heart palpitations are not uncommon, but it is rare to faint and not wake up like Ding'an.Wang Yanyuan found the acupuncture point and placed a few needles, and Ding'an seemed to feel something in his dream, frowning slightly, but there was no sign of waking up.Wang Yanyuan observed for a moment, and said: "Don't worry, the fright is too great, and you can wake up in a few days." ”He packed up the things on the table, Xie Sibai led him to open a prescription, Wang Yanyuan inadvertently said: "Gongzi brought me all the way, if I can't, what should I do?"
”Xie Sibai glanced at him and seemed to be smiling: "Isn't Mr. unintelligible?"
”Although he was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes, and the threat of his words was obvious.Wang Yanyuan originally said casually, he had joked too much with Xie Sibai in the past, and he didn't mind how many life and death moments, but this time it was like a different person.Wang Yanyuan touched the cold back of his neck and smiled: "I'm laughing." ”Xie Sibai's eyes narrowed, and the threat was gone: "Me too." ”Wang Yanyuan: "......
Is it?
Hehe. ”In the spring, he went out to grab medicine with Wang Yanyuan's prescription, and Luwu arranged for him to rest in the next room nearby, so that it was convenient to take care of the disease.With their respective arrangements appropriate, Xie Sibai continued to talk to Dongxue about the previous words.None of the first batch of dead soldiers sent by Emperor Yongping returned to restore their lives, and he knew that the assassination had failed.In the past, Emperor Yongping only secretly suppressed Qingyunxuan, and this action was equivalent to a complete break.Fortunately, Dongxue was alert, and before he got out, he had transferred all the important tasks of Qingyunxuan, and when he left, he also set a fire, and annihilated the ones that could not be taken away in the fire.There is no need to think about it, and he knows that Emperor Yongping is now annoyed and angry, and his next plan must be to strictly investigate the surrounding areas of Yingzhou at any cost, Tongxian is not safe, and he must be transferred back to Dingzhou as soon as possible.Xie Sibai explained the matter, and Dongxue was ordered to retreat.Xie Sibai stood quietly under the corridor, his expression cold.It's late autumn, and the courtyard is full of trees, and yellow leaves are all over the courtyard.If it had been any later, she would have woken up and would not have seen such autumn colors.On the other hand, Ding'an was in a coma, dreaming as if he would never wake up.For a while, the sky was full of blood in the official forest, and the people who came to hunt them down were endless, and the next moment it was like returning to the hour, and her mother knew that she was going to die, so she summoned her to her side.Concubine Chen is still the same as she remembers, she has lost her good color as a year, described as withered, and held on to her last breath."
There are some silver taels hidden in the backyard, which are my old dowry ......" ......
You take the money and go to Xie Sibai. ”"Xie Sibai?""
Qingyunxuan Xie Sibai."
Concubine Chen touched her head, and for a moment it seemed to be far away.Ding'an couldn't hold her hand, ran away, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.As soon as she turned around, the person in front of her turned into incense dust.Xiangchen held her hand, and the hatred in her eyes was so resolute: "Your Highness, just remember, come the same, don't worry." ”Like the quicksand between his fingers, he couldn't grasp it, and the fragrant dust left suddenly.Then Jingzhu, Xining, Lin Qi, Xu Xiang, Luwu......
The people she cherished also went away from her one by one.In the end, she returned to the forest full of killing and blood, it was already the scene of late autumn, Xie Sibai was seriously wounded, half-kneeling and holding the ground with a sword, but there were still enemies behind him who could not be killed."
Don't!"
Ding'an was so panicked that she wanted to go over while crying, but he was the same as before, getting farther and farther away from her.This panic extended from the dream to the outside of the dream, and suddenly someone took her hand and held her in his arms.The fragrance on the placket of the man's clothes was familiar, and it was a reassuring smell for her.Ding'an clutched the other party tightly, like a drowning man holding on to a life-saving driftwood and refusing to let go.Fortunately, this time she finally caught it, and it was no longer a mirror.In this way, with that hard-won warmth, after a while, Ding'an fell asleep again.This time she had no dreams in her dreams.
*Shaofu Rong'an Hall.In the same place, as usual, Shao Yi invited Xu Maotang to have tea.Xu Mao was still dressed in a Taoist robe, and when Shao Yi arrived, he was holding a sunspot in his hand, moving uncertainly on the chessboard.Hearing the voice, he turned around, put the sunspot back into the rattan box, and arched his hand: "Mao Gong." ”Xu Mao took his clothes and sat down: "Shao Gong summoned me today, what is the matter?"
”"I got a new remnant of the score, and I want Mao Gong to appreciate it with me."
Shao Yi smiled and pushed the chessboard in front of Xu Mao, "How?"
”Xu Mao glanced at it and saw that it was the real chapter, and he looked at it unconsciously.He is good at everything, but the chess idiot is a mistake, and he belongs to the master who can't take his eyes off when he sees the game.Shao Yi was very satisfied when she saw this.He stroked his beard: "Is Mao Gong interested?"
I've got a full copy of the book, and if you like it, I'll have it sent to you." ”Xu Mao was thinking about how to break the situation, and when he heard his words, he silently retreated: "I still understand this truth." ”Shao Yi said with a smile: "Has Duke Mao heard that Qingyunxuan in the palace was burned?
”Xu Mao was stunned, and quickly calmed down: "I heard a little." ”Shao Yi was meticulously observant, and even though it was only for a moment, he still noticed his hesitation.Xu Mao asked: "Could it be that Shao Gong did it?"
”Shao Yi laughed: "Naturally not, I don't have that much ability." ”Xu Maomo rubbed the lines on the chess pieces, feeling bad.Qingyunxuan was burned to such a big thing, he didn't even hear about it at all, it can be seen that someone deliberately concealed the news from him.Xu Mao thought about it for a while: "The reason why I stayed is just because Shao Gong still has something on his mind, and now that such a thing has happened, Qingyunxuan will inevitably be greatly injured, and Shao Gong should not need me." ”Shao Yi didn't say anything, and only let people serve tea: "Taste, the new dragon well before the rain in front of the emperor." ”Xu Mao took it and took a sip.Shao Yi said: "I should go to Mao Gong, if there is a decision in this matter, whether Mao Gong will go or stay and no longer block it." ”Xu Mao listened to what he said, and did not interject in a hurry."
But Mao Gong didn't help me much in this matter."
Xu Mao didn't mind his rudeness at all, and he was as kind as a stream: "It's really beyond Xu's strength." ”"Mao Gong doesn't have to be presumptuous, I see what your strength is."
Shao Yi put down the teacup, and because of a little force, the base knocked out a crisp sound, "But whether you can do it, and whether you want to do it, have always been two different things." ”Xu Mao immediately sank his face: "What do you mean?"

”Shao Yi smiled lightly, and even changed his tone for a while: "I mean, Mr.
Xu Mao can't find out for a long time, maybe it's because of the intention of shielding that kid from the Bai family." ”"You ......"
Shao Yi knew what he was going to say, so he interrupted him first, he looked at Xu Mao, obviously his expression had not changed much, but he felt oppressed for no reason: "Mr.
Xu Mao doesn't have to pretend to be stupid in front of me. ”Xu Mao stared at Shao Yi tightly, Shao Yi looked back with a smile, his attitude was firm, and he didn't allow him to say anything at all.Now, there is no need for Xu Mao to hide it.He grimaced and said, "When did you find out?"
”"Not so long ago."
Since he is willing to be honest, Shao Yi is also open and honest, "Duke Mao has a good plan, by helping me bring down the Lin family and gain trust, it will be difficult for me to doubt you."
But if you lose, you will lose because you ignore one thing, I have been a classmate and worked with Bai Yindu for many years, and I am very familiar with his style of acting, otherwise, he will not lose in my hands.And today's Xie Sibai is just like yesterday's Bai Yindu.You can hide it from me, but he can't hide it from me. ”Xu Mao clenched his hands: "You are finally willing to admit that Lord Bai was killed by you." ”Shao Yi looked up to the sky and laughed: "When did I not admit it?
If it weren't for me, how could Your Majesty catch the handle of Chen Bai's family so quickly, could it be that you really think it was Lin Xian's straw bag's handiwork?
”Xu Mao endured humiliation for many years, in order to avenge the Bai family.Now Shao Yi did not shy away from mocking Bai Xiang's incompetence in front of him, and sure enough, he was enraged.Xu Mao pulled out his Hidden Blade, and was about to take Shao Yi's life with a sword, but suddenly found that he couldn't use any strength, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the Hidden Blade fell to the ground.Shao Yi was not surprised, he smiled and said, "Mr.
Mao doesn't think that I can give you a chance to kill me, right?"
”"You ......," Xu Mao reacted, "It's Jiangcai's tea ......"
"I also drank Jiangcai's tea." ”Shao Yi sneered, "But it's Mr.
Mao who is angry."
This is not very good, as a guest at the host's house, how can you use the sword and sword, and it is really insulting to spread it. ”Shao Yi deliberately humiliated him.Xu Mao also found that as long as he was angry, turbidity and qi accumulated in his body.He adjusted his breathing and tried to calm himself down."
Mr.
Mao is a talented man, and he really doesn't want to end your life here."
Shao Yi said, "I know that you are from Bai Yindu.But what is the difference between working for Bai Yindu and working for me?
Mr.
Mao has the world in his heart, and he should be a person from the world, so why bother with these trivial matters. ”Xu Mao smacked him: "Traitorous villain, you are also worthy of my Xu Mao's loyalty?"
”Shao Yi lowered his face coldly: "Mr.
Mao is a toast and does not eat and drink." ”"Since I am willing to come forward, I have long put life and death aside.Pity me, I should have taken your dog's life earlier, even if I couldn't escape, I would have you with me when I got to the Netherworld. ”Shao Yi sneered: "I know you don't understand me, it's okay."
How many people in ancient and modern times can achieve great things with clean hands?
Even Bai Yindu is also responsible for a few lives, otherwise why do you think everyone can do this position?
Bai Yindu is not stupid, when it comes to being ruthless, he is not far behind. ”Xu Mao was unmoved.Shao Yi continued: "I am a person who loves talents, and I don't want to watch you die for these things.I'll give you three days to think it through.Whether you want to die or repay me, it's all in your thoughts.When today's disasters and man-made disasters and wars in the south are endless, prosperity is the suffering of the people, and death is also the suffering of the people.The reason why I worked so hard to achieve this position was also because I wanted to do something for the common people.If Mao Gong figured it out, he would naturally know what was really important. ”Chapter 122, 122 Changle Palace.Last night it rained all night, and it was dripping and hitting the leaves.Emperor Yongping has not slept well in recent days, so he tossed and turned for most of the night, and his eyes will be closed at dawn.Xu Xiang woke up early, asked Hanyan to inform the small kitchen to prepare food, and went to the side hall to see Zhenru.After Zhenru came back from Kunning Palace, she suffered from crying at night, so in order not to disturb Emperor Yongping's rest at night, she had to be placed in a slightly farther side hall.The little guy was in good spirits, got up early in the morning, and was held by the nurse and stood under the eaves to look at the waterlogged sycamore trees in the courtyard.Xu Xiang teased the rattle for a while, thinking that the time was about the same, and then carried her back.Sure enough, Emperor Yongping had already gotten up.When he saw Xu Xiang coming with Zhenru, there was a smile on his face.Emperor Yongping likes to stay with Xu Xiang, not only because her temperament is somewhat similar to the former Concubine Chen, but also because only by her side can she forget the various incidents of the harem of the former dynasty.The Xu family is not like the Lin family and the Shao family, they are insignificant in the court, and they don't have to bother to deal with it, and Xu Xiang doesn't have much ambition, and he won't be like others, always calculating and scheming.Emperor Yongping stretched out his hand to take Zhenru and coaxed her to play, Zhenru also cooperated, babbling and laughing happily.Emperor Yongping really hurt her so much, Fang said: "She cries at night, it doesn't get in the way, she sends it so far, it is said that the mother and daughter are connected, and she should make trouble." ”Xu Xiang teased Zhenru, and when he heard Emperor Yongping's words, he seemed to have no intention of replying: "Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, and it is not good to be disturbed to clear your dreams."
If you are still young and ignorant, the concubine can't be ignorant.If not, he will be punished by the queen again. ”Speaking of Empress Shao, the smile on Emperor Yongping's face faded.After breakfast, Xu Xiang thought that Emperor Yongping would go back, but he didn't expect him to stay, and ordered someone to carry the chapter to Changle Palace.Xu Xiang couldn't, so he had to accompany him in the study.Emperor Yongping was busy with official business, she finished studying ink on the side, and helped to change the tea cup in time, so she was fine.Xu Xiang is different from the emperor in the palace, they have been forced to go to the National Rite Institute since they were children, although they are not proficient, they still have knowledge and literary talents, and Xu Xiang is very relaxed at home, studying is three days of fishing, two days of drying nets, except for knowing a few words, the rest do not understand anything.If you want her to be confined to the study, it is better to let her climb a tree.Therefore, she didn't hold on for a long time, but she still couldn't hold on, her head was lowered and she was drowsy.Emperor Yongping hurriedly brought the tea cup, drank it and found that it was cold, he frowned and looked up, but what he saw was Xu Xiang holding his face in his hand, and he had fallen asleep half-asleep.For the first time, Emperor Yongping saw someone like this in front of him.The concubines in the palace, if they are fortunate enough to be close to the palace, which one is not in a hurry to show herself, she is the only one who has a big heart.Emperor Yongping shook his head with a smile, and when he put down the teacup, his voice was slightly louder, Xu Xiang woke up, and hurriedly got up and changed the hot tea for him.The fan of the long window was not tightly closed, something jumped in with a flutter, Xu Xiang and Emperor Yongping followed the sound together, and found that it was a black cat.Xu Xiang closed the window tightly in the past, hugged the black cat down, and Emperor Yongping dialed the tea leaves in the cup and asked, "When did you raise a cat?"
I don't know. ”"It's not mine, it's raised by His Royal Highness before."
Xu Xiang said, "After she left, I missed her very much, so I simply brought this beast over and raised it, which is also a thought." ”Emperor Yongping's expression was slightly strange.After Ding'an went to Puji Temple, there was no news of her in Beijing.Xu Xiang didn't know what happened after that.Now Xie Sibai defected for no reason, and Qingyunxuan was also destroyed in a fire.The unknown whereabouts of Ding'an have always been a piece of his heart.Emperor Yongping looked at the black cat.There is no trace of variegation on its body, it is oily and slippery, and its green eyes are faint and clear, and it has a strange and bevelous appearance, which somehow always makes the viewer unhappy.Emperor Yongping frowned slightly: "How can Ding'an raise such a thing?"
”Xu Xiang smoothed the hair of the black cat in his arms: "His Highness Sixteen has a child's temperament, and it is not an exaggeration to love these." ”Emperor Yongping was silent, he didn't mean this.In the past, when Concubine Chen was still there, she liked these little beasts very much, especially a white cat, which was kept under the inner bed, eating and drinking in one place.Later, it was used by someone with a heart, making the white cat hurt, and Concubine Chen herself almost slipped the tire.After the death of the white cat, Concubine Chen was heartbroken, and because of the shadow of the past, she explicitly forbade the Hanzhang Palace to raise any more living animals, even if the palace maids and eunuchs under her command picked it up for fun.Ding'an has been by her mother's side since she was a child, and she won't know that her mother has such a knot.Ding'an has a deep relationship with her mother and concubine, and she will not ignore these.Moreover......
Emperor Yongping asked, "When did she raise this cat?"
”Xu Xiang thought for a while: "I don't know the specific concubines, it's about after the Qianqiu banquet."
The concubine once heard that this cat was not brought by His Royal Highness, but it suddenly appeared out of nowhere one day, and always stayed in Hanzhang Hall and did not leave. ”After the Thousand Autumn Banquet.Isn't that about the same time as Ding'an's onset?
It's weird inside and out.What did Emperor Yongping want to see, he raised his eyes to look at Xu Xiang, and his eyes were particularly sharp: "When did it start to cry at night?"
”He suddenly became serious, Xu Xiang was startled, and stammered and replied: "Big, it's about a few days since I brought it back from the queen's mother......
It was about the time when she brought the black cat.Emperor Yongping clenched the teacup in his hand.The strange things that had happened in the past two months were suddenly strung together and connected.Xu Xiang saw that something was not quite right with him, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty......"
"I should have thought of it a long time ago." ”Emperor Yongping stared at the black cat, gritting his teeth, "It's so dignified, why did people become like that." ”He obviously had the opportunity to ask this sentence earlier, but at that time, he only cared about avoiding Concubine Chen, and he didn't think about it at all.Concubine Chen has long been an old thing for the harem, and not many people still remember it in their hearts, and only Concubine Jing and Queen Shao can still be remembered.Emperor Yongping was very aware of their hatred for Concubine Chen, and Ding'an happened to lose the queen's face at the Qianqiu banquet.New hatred and old hatred, Concubine Jing has fallen again, her family is the only one in the palace, and she can't do what she wants.Thinking about Ding'an, before the accident, she pretended to publicize her marriage, and her intention was nothing more than to paralyze him, so that when something happened, she would not be implicated.It turned out that they were all plotted.Emperor Yongping simply hated Concubine Wang Hao together.Annoyed, he threw the teacup out, and the porcelain cup fell to the ground and fell apart.Xu Xiang somehow made him furious and hurriedly fell to his knees.Emperor Yongping smiled slightly: "It has nothing to do with you, get up." ”Xu Xiang got up again.Emperor Yongping glanced at the beast in her arms and made a conclusion: "I'm afraid that this black cat has something else." ”Xu Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "Your Majesty is saying that Her Royal Highness is ......
Could it be ......"
Emperor Yongping bowed his head slightly and affirmed her words.Xu Xiang was frightened and hurriedly let go of the black cat in his arms, lest he avoid it."
You don't have to make a noise about this matter first, I have my own arrangements."
Emperor Yongping narrowed his eyes, and his words were already full of disgust, "If it was really her, I am not afraid that I will not find out anything." ”*Jingzhong, Guangxuan Building.Guangxuan Building is located in the center of the city, perennial as a resting place between Beijing and outside Beijing, the appearance is not surprising compared to the inn wine shop next to it, but it is actually hiding dirt and dirt, there are wanted Jiangyang thieves, there are also displaced Wanguan merchants.The three religions and nine streams gathered together, and the dragons and snakes were mixed.It is said that as long as the crime is not as good as the emperor's relatives and officials, you are not afraid of being found out if you have evidence of a great crime.Therefore, although Guangxuan Tower is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, it has always been recognized as the safest place in the world.The premise is that there is enough silver to get in.In the inconspicuous corner of the inn lobby, there sat two inconspicuous people, dressed in brown coarse cloth shirts and a pair of soap shoes stained with mud and sand, who did not look like rich people, but this place could not be judged by appearance.These two people are not very old, one of them is younger, is not yet a weak crown of young people, with a bamboo strip in his mouth, and he does not shy away from looking at the people around him, you must know that such a move is very dangerous in Guangxuan Building, and the people who can come in have a hidden past, and it is a past that cannot be seen, and it is the most taboo to be stared at.He is so grandiose, it is clear that he does not take others seriously.There could be two reasons for this.For one, he may be an idiot; Or, he has enough strength to be so provocative.
