Chapter Ninety-Four: Asking

"I hear you've helped us a lot this time. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Princess Chang'an said excitedly as soon as she entered the imperial study.

"I don't know if it helps. Jiang Yuetang hurriedly responded modestly.

Princess Chang'an is three years older than Jiang Yuetang, but she is almost a head taller than Jiang Yuetang, and her body looks much stronger.

The Queen Mother and Princess Changyun both have waists like willows and shoulders that are cut down, but Princess Chang'an is slightly chubby. However, although she is not as gentle and charming as her mother and sister, she has a fresh and lovely atmosphere, so her popularity in the palace is even higher than that of her sister.

Jiang Yuetang didn't chat with Princess Chang'an in private, and she didn't dare to get too close all at once, so she didn't take the initiative to speak after answering.

Princess Chang'an asked people to serve fruits and snacks, and ordered someone to go to her room to get something.

"It was in the top drawer of the cabinet on the left side of the room, in a silver box. Princess Chang'an instructed.

Soon, the maid delivered what she had asked for.

Princess Chang'an handed the silver box to Jiang Yuetang and said, "Thank you for your help this time, be careful, and look at it." ”

Jiang Yuetang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The grass people don't dare to ask for it, and they can't ask for it." ”

Princess Chang'an had already stuffed it into her pocket, and said very domineeringly: "Don't refuse it, otherwise I will be unhappy." ”

Jiang Yuetang couldn't do it, so she had to accept it. But I was afraid that the things she gave were too valuable and I couldn't afford them, so I hurriedly opened them again.

It is a Xun 1 made of porcelain, about eight inches long and five inches wide, with ancient and mysterious totems carved on it.

Jiang Yuetang didn't know how to blow the Xun, but seeing that its shape was cute, and the color and pattern were so simple, she accepted it gratefully.

"Do you want me to take you around?" asked Princess Chang'an.

Jiang Yuetang shook her head.

Suddenly, Jiang Yuetang thought of something, and felt that this was a good time to inquire about it, so he asked, "Second princess, there is something I want to know from you. ”

Princess Chang'an said: "I don't know much about things, and I may not be able to help you, but you can talk about it first." ”

"It's about the Third Highness, that is, your third brother. Jiang Yuetang hurriedly lowered her voice and said.

Princess Chang'an's eyes suddenly flashed with sadness, stared at her and asked, "Who have you heard about him?"

"My Daddy, but he only spoke in a rough way. ”

"I wasn't born when my third brother died, and I didn't know much. Princess Chang'an said, it seems that she is reluctant to mention this matter.

The third prince, Li Yun, was five years older than her, and he died less than a year old, so she really didn't know much about him. Besides, this is a very sad past after all, so she doesn't want to mention it more.

Jiang Yuetang saw that she was reluctant to mention it, and she didn't dare to force it, so she said, "I understand." It's just that I've often remembered that he died a strange death since I learned about it, so I'd love to know more about it to see if I can help. ”

Princess Chang'an thought that Jiang Yuetang could find that the color of the emperor's throat was a little strange, and her attitude was not so resistant.

The little hairy boy in front of her does seem to have some outstanding points in observation and analysis, if you can provide her with more information, maybe she can really find something.

It's just that after all, it is a private matter of the Heavenly Family, and it is useless to reveal too much to the outside world.

However, Jiang Yuetang obviously wants to be a strategist or an official in the future, and the Jiang family has been loyal for generations, so it is expected that he will not use this matter to make a bad idea.

After hesitating again and again, Princess Chang'an held Jiang Yuetang's hand and said earnestly: "But you have to promise me - you will never disclose this matter to the outside world." ”

Jiang Yuetang immediately knelt down and said, "The grass people promise you that they will never reveal half a point to the public." ”

Princess Chang'an seemed to be relieved a lot, so she pulled her up and slowly talked about the events of the year.

"I don't know much, and I've heard it all from my mother, the emperor's brother and sister. Princess Chang'an said, perhaps because she was sad, her expression became solemn.

Jiang Yuetang waited quietly for her to continue.

"According to the queen mother, she had a dream on the first night of going to Daqing Mountain to escape the summer, and she dreamed that a voice said to her, 'The third prince Li Yun will be able to achieve hegemony in the future and leave a name for eternity, but before that, you may have to be separated from him several times by almost yin and yang' The queen mother was very worried when she heard this, and hurriedly asked how to resolve it, and the voice replied, 'There is no solution, you can only rely on his own creation'. After waking up, the queen mother thought about it for a long time, but she was still a little worried, so she told the emperor about this dream. The emperor thought it was just a dream, and told her not to think too much.

Ten days later, the third brother was eaten by a wild wolf. ”

"Do you believe that the Third Highness was eaten by a wild wolf?" Jiang Yuetang asked.

Princess Chang'an shook her head, and then said: "In fact, the first emperor and the queen mother have been sending people to investigate secretly over the years, but after so many years, no new clues have been found. Sometimes, the queen mother would comfort herself and say that he was just missing, and sometimes she laughed and said that maybe the gods thought that his bones were strange and suitable for cultivating immortals, so they took him to cultivate immortals. ”

Princess Chang'an's eyes moistened as she spoke, and she said: "Many people who are lucky enough to see him say that he is smart and cute, and his bones are strange, I envy them when I hear it, after all, they have seen him, but I can only rely on imagination to miss him." ”

Jiang Yuetang didn't make a sound, reached out and gently patted the back of her hand.

"Since you are good at analysis, you can help us analyze and analyze. Princess Chang'an said again.

"Is that all?" Jiang Yuetang asked.

"And then there are others, I heard from my Emperor's brother, who said that he had seen with his own eyes the yellow hairs left on the bed where the incident took place, and they were indeed from wild wolves. He also saw the torn and blood-crushed clothes, which looked like they had been torn apart by wolves, but when he looked closely, they looked like they had been torn apart. This situation is inevitably suspicious. You know, the clothes torn out by humans and beasts should still be a little different. ”

"So, you also suspected that this matter might be man-made?" Jiang Yuetang immediately lowered his voice and asked.

"Well, but if it's man-made, who would it be? Why do you do it? The first emperor never had a deep grudge against anyone during his lifetime, and the queen mother did not have a big feud with anyone in the harem. Princess Chang'an said, sighing extremely sadly.
