Just now, the chief steward committed suicide by hitting the pillar.

I saw blood flowing all over the ground, and the chief steward's clothes were also stained with blood.

Ming Jin's face sank, and the attendants on the side hurriedly ordered people to come in and clean up, and it was quite unfortunate to see blood in the Qianqing Palace.

Ming Cheng's face was not very good-looking, and when he saw that the chief steward committed suicide, his tense nerves loosened slightly, he turned to look at Ming Jin, and said: "Father, it's all sons and daughters who are not good, and they didn't take good care of their subordinates, so they let them do such a thing, and when they go back, they will definitely investigate carefully." ”

Ming Jin nodded, although his expression was not very good, but he still said: "Since it is a matter of your house, you naturally have to find out clearly." ”

"Yes, Erchen understands. ”

Among the sons, Ming Jin's favorite is the crown prince Ming Cheng, although Queen Hu is lukewarm to Ming Cheng, and even a little hateful, but Ming Jin treats Ming Cheng with a little doting.

If it was other sons who made such a fuss, Ming Jin was naturally furious, but because it was Ming Cheng, he indulged a lot, and he did not ask anyone to investigate, but let Ming Cheng go to investigate by himself.

Seeing that Ming Jin had no intention of pursuing it, Ming Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and he also expected that in the absence of definite evidence, Ming Jin would naturally choose to believe him.

However, the matter was disturbed by a few Qing Linwei halfway, which still made Mingcheng a little resentful, but he didn't show half a point on his face, just turned to look at Shen Cang, and said, "Did you find out about this?"

Shen Cang nodded.

Ming Cheng thought for a moment, and then asked, "I remember, you seem to be the son of Dongning Bofu. ”

Ming Jin also cast his gaze.

Shen Cang said: "Shen Cang, a subordinate, is indeed a person from Dongning Bofu, and his father, Shen Yanping, is now a household servant." ”

Ming Cheng had only seen Shen Cang a few times at the party by chance, and only vaguely remembered that Shen Cang was from Dongning Bofu, but it was not clear who he was.

He smiled slightly: "Father, he has made a great contribution this time, and he is the son of Dongning Bofu, so it is too condescending to be only a Qinglinwei." ”

Shen Cang looked at Ming Cheng a little intentionally.

And Ming Cheng still smiled and said, "It's better to promote him by one or two." ”

Ming Jin's expression was faint, and he didn't seem to care about it, so he simply said to Jiang Lin: "Just follow what the prince said." ”

With that, he walked out.

......

Several corpses were found in several boxes carried by the chief steward of the Prince's Mansion and others.

It's just that Prince Mingcheng seems to know nothing about this, and the chief steward who was present at the time also chose to commit suicide by hitting the pillar, although the matter was handed over to the prince's mansion and Qing Linwei to investigate together, but those corpses have been dead for a long time, and the identity of the deceased cannot be identified.

And Shen Cang was also promoted to the Qinglin Guard because of his merits this time, but Shen Cang himself was full of resentment about this.

Without him, becoming a guard means that he will always be in the palace in the future, responsible for guarding the safety of the palace, and not as comfortable as he was outside the palace before.

However, resentment is resentment, but the promotion is still real, and Shen Cang gradually became happy after the initial dissatisfaction.

After only a few days of joining the Youth Guard, he was promoted to the Praetorian Guard, which is not something that everyone has.

It's just that Shen Cang has a belly full of joy, but there is no one to share, although he has been promoted, he can't always run to talk to Shen Yanping, if Shen Yanping sees Shen Cang, I'm afraid he will chase him with a stick.

So Shen Cang thought about it, and after returning to the house, he went to the Guiyun Courtyard where Shen Fengxu was.

At this time, Dong Ningbo Mansion.

Shen Fengxu was looking at the books in his hand, and Dansha suddenly walked in quickly and said, "Girl, the second son is here." ”

Shen Feng's eyebrows were slightly raised, he put down the book in his hand, and asked a little strangely, "What is the second brother doing here?"

Although her relationship with Shen Cang is not bad, Shen Cang does not come in normal times, and nothing has happened in recent days.

Dansha also shook his head and said, "I don't know. ”

"Let's invite the second brother in first. Shen Fengxu said.

When Shen Cang came in, he walked in with brisk steps, as if he was happy.

Shen Fengxu smiled and asked, "Second brother is so excited, is there any happy event?"

Shen Cang said very proudly: "That's natural, sixth sister, do you know that I am now a guard in the Qinglin Guard?"

Hearing this, Shen Fengxu was a little surprised: "Really?"

In Shen Fengxu's impression, although Shen Cang has a pure heart, he has never learned or learned anything, he is idle, and he has a bad reputation in the academy, and it is already a very rare thing to be able to enter Qinglinwei.

Although Shen Yanping did not approve of Shen Cang's actions, Shen Cang's ability to enter the Qinglinwei was naturally enough to prove Shen Cang's potential, but it seemed that Shen Cang had officially become a member of the Qinglinwei for only a few days, and he could be promoted to the Praetorian Guard?

Shen Fengxu thought for a moment and asked, "Has the second brother made any contributions?"

It seems that this is the only possibility.

Shen Cang nodded and said happily: "Yes, it is precisely because of this that I was promoted." ”

"Oh, what credit has the second brother made? Shen Fengxu asked with a smile.

Shen Cang said very proudly: "Yesterday, I was patrolling near the Prince's Mansion with Qing Linwei and the others, and the people who bumped into the Prince's Mansion walked out with a few boxes, and no one else noticed anything wrong, but I did. ”

He made a point of emphasizing that he was the only one who discovered it.

Shen Fengxu couldn't help but smile, but he didn't say anything, he still smiled and asked, "Then what?"

Shen Cang told one by one: "The chief steward of the prince's mansion and a group of people were about to leave with the box, but the good road did not go, and took the side of the road, I stepped forward to interrogate, they said that it was the spice that the prince wanted to give to some nobleman, but how I looked at it and felt that it was wrong, so I asked them to open the box to take a look, the chief steward did not agree at first, but for the sake of my face, I opened the box." ”

Listening to Shen Cang's description, Shen Fengxu smiled helplessly.

Because of Shen Cang's face, it is obviously because of Qing Linwei's identity.

"The contents of the box are indeed as the steward said, just some spices, sixth sister, guess how I found out that something was wrong. Shen Cang blinked, his eyes almost bent into a crescent moon.

He wanted to talk to others early in the morning, but Qing Linwei and the others were either present at the time, or they were not interested in it, and these words could not be mentioned to Shen Yanping, so Shen Cang could only come here to say it to Shen Fengxu.

Shen Fengxu still smiled shallowly and asked, "I don't know, how did the second brother find out?"

The chief steward said that those things were spices for the nobles, but the boxes were full of inferior spices, and the aroma was so strong that it seemed to be hiding something. Shen Cang said, "So I stepped forward and kicked the box, and sure enough, there were a few words of rotten corpses hidden in the box." ”

"Found a corpse?" Shen Fengxu frowned slightly, this is not a trivial matter, if it is the corpse of an ordinary servant, it seems that there is no need to hide it so much, thinking about it, the person hiding in the box is not an ordinary person.

Shen Fengxu was not very interested in the affairs of the Prince's Mansion, but now, according to Shen Fengxu's conjecture, Shen Yulou may be in the Prince's Mansion, so Shen Fengxu paid more attention.

Shen Cang nodded: "Yes, it's a corpse, and the big steward saw that the matter was revealed, and he was angry and had to resist stubbornly, but unfortunately, although they were outnumbered, they were not our opponents." ”

When Shen Cang said this, he paused slightly, and then said regretfully: "It's a pity that the sixth sister was not present at the time, and I didn't see my heroic posture at that time. ”

Shen Cang said, and made a comparison, telling the situation of the battle that day one by one, what words such as "wise and powerful" and "superb" were also used, and he made a comparison while talking, but he did not mention his Qinglinwei colleagues between the words, but exaggerated his performance that day.

Shen Cangzheng was talking with great interest, when he suddenly heard a sneer from the side, Shen Cang was stunned, turned his head to look, and saw Yun Wan standing aside, looking at him with a smile.

I only heard Yun Wan say lightly: "So this is Qing Linwei?

Shen Cang was suddenly furious and said, "What do you mean by this?"

"Literally. Yun Wan just said coldly, and after saying that, he turned his head away and no longer looked at Shen Cang.

But Shen Cang was not convinced, he said, "Are you looking down on Qing Linwei?"

"I used to admire Qing Linwei, but now that I know that Qing Linwei actually has some indiscriminate people under his command, I don't have much interest. Yun Bang said sarcastically.

Dubious?

In Yun Wan's eyes, what kind of person is he?

Shen Cang was choked by Yun Wan's words for a long time and didn't speak, raised his hand to Yun Wan, gritted his teeth and said, "I want to compete with you!"

"Competition?" Yun raised his eyebrows, "Some time ago, my subordinates were defeated, do you think that now is my opponent?"

Shen Cang flicked his sleeves violently and said, "Who is your subordinate who is defeated? That day was just a momentary accident, not at all! I will never lose to you again!"

Shen Cang is very confident.

His original martial arts were indeed mediocre, but during this time, he had trained very hard and hard, and even among the Qinglin Guard, there were few people who could compete with him.

He didn't believe that he would lose to Yun Wan this time.

In the face of such a shameless person as Shen Cang, Yun Wan had no interest in competing with him, and only said lightly: "I don't have the patience to play with you." ”

Shen Fengxu shook his head and smiled: "Yun Wan, you come back first, second brother, you should say a few words." ”

But Shen Cang was still unconvinced, and said, "Sixth sister, I must beat her today!"

Shen Fengxu smiled slightly: "Second brother, even if you can really beat a woman, what can you be proud of?"

Shen Cang was suddenly choked.

Indeed, there is nothing to be proud of in outstanding a woman, but he ...... It was lost to Guo Yunwan before.

He just wants to prove that he is by no means weaker than Yun Wan.

But Shen Cang was embarrassed to say this, but insisted on saying: "I must have a competition with her today!"

Yun Wan glanced at Shen Cang with disdain, then turned away, as if he didn't want to deal with him at all.

But when Shen Cang saw that Yun Wan was leaving, he suddenly became anxious and said, "Stop!"

Yun Wan didn't stop planning, he walked straight past Shen Cang, and walked out, Shen Cang immediately stepped forward to stop Yun Wan.

Yun Wan ignored Shen Cang and still walked out.

Shen Cang drew the saber at his waist and attacked directly at Yun Wan.

However, Shen Cang just wanted to scare Yun Bang, and he didn't really want to hurt Yun Bang, and the sword blade just slid past Yun Bang's side.

But his move made Yun Wan's brows twist.

Yun Wan stopped his steps and looked at Shen Cang coldly, but the gaze she cast made Shen Cang stunned.

Shen Cang has never looked at Yun Wan's appearance carefully, in fact, even if he looks at it, he can't see anything, Yun Bang has a veil on his face all the year round, and he can only see those cold eyes, he has always said that Yun Wan is regarded as half a man, and he doesn't feel that Yun Wan has the characteristics of one or two women at all.

But......

Just that look.

But Shen Cang was slightly stunned.

Those eyes are so delicate and gorgeous, the eyebrows are slender like leaves, the eyes are clear and cold, just looking at it from such a distance, it seems to be deep in the vast galaxy, and can no longer come out.

The face is covered and it can be seen, but what should be the scene under that veil?

Shen Cang felt that his breath was also suffocated.

But Yun Wan didn't have the idea of gossiping with Shen Cang, and after snorting coldly, he walked away.

Thinking about it, Shen Cang should not do anything to sneak attack again.

Yun Wan thought so, and was about to step out, but suddenly felt a cold wind in her ears, her face changed in an instant, but she had no time to react, so she could only retreat awkwardly.

It seemed that a cold wind suddenly blew in, blowing up the broken hair on Yun Wang's forehead, and even the veil on his face was blown up.

Shen Fengxu also stood up: "Miss Yun!"

The veil fell to the ground with a sound.

Shen Fengxu and Shen Cang were both stunned the moment they saw Yun Wan's face, even Shen Fengxu was stunned for a while.

Without him, the face under the veil is too gorgeous.

It's not that Shen Fengxu hasn't seen a beauty, not to mention the Shen Yulou who has captivated the country and the city, whether it is Hu Huizhi or Jiang Xiyue, they are all rare beauties, but no matter who compares with Yun Bang, even if Shen Yulou, who is recognized as the first beauty in Beijing, is not inferior to Yun Bang.

There seems to be a Hanhan galaxy in the eyes, which makes people fall into it, even when they are not smiling, their eyebrows and eyes are curved like the moon, as if they have a beautiful and romantic color, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the thin lips are slightly pursed.

It's just that there was a little panic on that face, and he hurriedly raised his sleeves to hide his face.
