Chu Shaoyuan rode out of Xiangze Street, his purpose was very clear, he was going to go out of Yunfu and go to Zhuangzi in the suburbs.

That Zhuangzi is the underground Zhuangzi of Mingyan Tower.

His goal of going to Zhuangzi is also very clear, even if he can't stay in Yunfu, he will not allow the fourth child to take over the forces he left in Yunfu, and this time, he decided not to let the fourth child go so easily.

Since Ming Yanlou took over, he has expanded a lot of secret forces in the open and in the dark, and this time it was time for him to check the results.

He suddenly thought of what Shen Shuofeng told him a few days ago about Yu Qiufeng's killing.

Secretly frowned.

He didn't care whether Yu Qiufeng was dead or alive, what he cared about was who would do Yu Qiufeng's death.

If it is said that his opponent did it, then there is only one fourth child in this opponent, and there will be no one else, because the prince has been imprisoned, and although the fourth child was ordered to face the wall in the mansion, he is not like the prince who has no freedom in life, so this time the prince's death, he can be sure that this is definitely the handiwork of the fourth child.

Although he did not grow up in the palace since he was a child, the prince's temperament also had a general understanding in his few contacts.

How could a person like the prince who is greedy for life and afraid of death follow in the queen's footsteps after the queen hanged herself, what is the inside story of it, he can't find out, it doesn't mean that others can't find it either.

He remembered that in the Mingyan Tower, he had placed people into the palace, if he could find out the reason, it would be the best, if he couldn't find the reason, there was a dark line in the palace at least a back hand.

That's why he couldn't wait to go to Mingyan Tower, instead of asking Wei Qing to pass Shen Shuofeng over.

Compared to the kind of thing that will be a little embarrassing if you go forward, when you encounter something really important, it is nothing at all.

He flicked his horsewhip, and the horse galloped past.

……

Chanyi was unsettled today, and her eyelids were jumping suddenly.

As soon as she caught the needle and thread, she was going to sew a few summer shirts for Chu Shaoyuan, but she was pricked by a needle on her finger, she whispered a "hiss" and raised her finger, only to see that a round bead of blood had emerged from the place where the needle had been pierced.

She frowned, it's not that she doesn't usually do needlework, why is it so abnormal today?

Jinping came in with tea, and saw Chan Yi looking at her fingers, and a bead of blood came out on her fingers, so frightened that she hurriedly put the tea set on the table, and took a clean handkerchief to cover Chan Yi's bloody fingers.

"Princess, why are you so careless!" Jinping asked aloud, "But what's uncomfortable? Do you want the slave maid to hire an imperial doctor to take a look at your body?"

Chanyi came back to her senses and shook her head: "It's okay, what time is it?"

Jin Se on the side hurriedly said: "When you first entered the palace, the princess was hungry?

Today Chu Shaoyuan said that he would not be able to come back until very late, and now it is not time to eat lunch, Chan Yi waved his hand, thinking a little absently in his heart, and he didn't know if Chu Shaoyuan was in a hurry to do something, and the affairs of the Ministry of Industry were now concerned by all parties, and he didn't know if he could hold it alone.

When I got up this morning, I saw that he looked a little tired, maybe because the weather was too hot these days.

She instructed Jinping: "I remember that the courtyard next to Bihu Lake is the ice cellar where we hide ice." ”

Jinping nodded: "Yes, the slave maid went to see it a few days ago, and the ice hidden this year is enough for us to use for a summer, but you want to eat the ice bowl? ”

In fact, these days are not the hottest time, and the habit of using the ice kettle is also inherited from the Xia family, and it is not used as little as possible when it is not the hottest, especially for these women, if they are used to using ice since childhood, they will not be haunted by cold in the future, so this habit was brought to the palace.

Chanyi stopped her and said: "You don't have to bring the ice kettle here, the weather is not too hot, I think we brought a lot of sour plums from the house, if we can make some sour plum soup to drink, it is also a good thing to prevent heatstroke and quench thirst." ”

Jin Se listened to the words, and his eyes lit up: "Princess, the slave and maid are the best at cooking sour plum soup, you can leave it to the slave and maid to cook, and you can drink several large bowls of it!"

Chanyi couldn't help but smile when she saw her playing a package ticket, "What year can you cook sour plum soup without you at home?" You go and tell the big kitchen to cook more today, dig some ice from the ice cellar to calm it, and drink a bowl of one person in the house, add more rock sugar to the rest, and send it in when the prince comes back." ”

Jin Se immediately understood that Chan Yi was actually a sour plum soup specially cooked for the prince.

She replied with a smile: "You can rest assured that you will hand it over to the slave maid, and when the prince comes back, the sour plum soup is still cold!"

Chanyi nodded and let her go.

Jinping smiled and said on the side: "The slaves and maids are really stained, think about the sour plum soup last year was still drunk in the Xia family, and this year I came to the palace." ”

Even the maids around her didn't expect her to be with Chu Shaoyuan, and Chanyi naturally wouldn't have thought of today a year ago.

But the two of them can always be together like this, and she is satisfied in her heart.

Chanyi smiled, said "um" lightly, picked up the summer shirt that had just been thrown on the table, and lowered her head to embroider the bamboo leaves one by one.

Summer clothes are made of light and thin, often embroidered patterns are not rattan patterns or blessing patterns, she embroidered impatiently, simply embroidered the bamboo leaves, a large piece of emerald bamboo leaves look cool, and the second is also elegant.

Before the sour plum soup was cooked, the little maid on the second door came to pass the ceremony, saying that Shen Ye had something to ask to see the prince.

Chanyi's embroidered fingers were sore, he pinched his fingers lightly, raised his eyebrows, Shen Ye is Shen Shuofeng, it seems that he really hasn't seen him for several months, and he always only contacts Chu Shaoyuan on weekdays, why did he come to the palace alone today.

And the point is that Chu Shaoyuan is not at home on weekdays, and he has followed Chu Shaoyuan for so long, it is impossible not to know about it.

After such a hesitation, Chanyi decided to meet Shen Shuofeng, in case there was really anything important, wouldn't it be a delay for her to hesitate like this.

The maid on the second door was instructed to reply, Chanyi got up and changed into a set of regular clothes for visitors, and went to the side hall.

As soon as she faced Shen Shuofeng, who had entered the side hall, she realized that he was wrong.

On weekdays, even if Shen Shuofeng is expressionless and a little pale, it will never be like today, as if he has lost too much blood, and there is no blood on his face, it is miserable and white, mixed with a bleak white.

She didn't know what was going on, so she quickly asked, "But what happened? Why is your face so ugly?"

Shen Shuofeng raised his eyes and quickly glanced at Chanyi, and that look quickly flashed over, so that Chanyi didn't see the touch in his eyes clearly, was it surprise or something.

Then Shen Shuo's cool voice sounded: "I have something to ask to see the prince, and I ask the princess to help!"

Chanyi was stunned for a moment, Chu Shaoyuan should have been busy in the yamen at this time, and asked her to help, did she want her to go to Chu Shaoyuan and come back?

She was a little strange, but she still shook her head: "At this time, I'm just afraid that the prince is very busy and doesn't have time to see you, if you can wait, you can wait in the mansion for a while." ”

But Shen Shuofeng just didn't have such a long time to wait.

He sighed in his heart, looked at Chanyi, and said solemnly: "Princess, the matter is urgent, you must find the prince to discuss with him, it will be too late if it is too late." ”

Chanyi was a little embarrassed, according to Shen Shuofeng's appearance, it must be an important thing, but Chu Shaoyuan was really busy, she didn't know whether to help Shen Shuofeng, after all, she didn't know all the things that Shen Shuofeng did, she felt that none of those things were comfortable, and she was almost a little hesitant to see him like this at this moment.

Shen Shuofeng saw that Chanyi didn't speak, and added a sentence in a little anxious: "This matter is related to the life and death of the palace, and I ask the princess to tell the prince." ”

Such a request came out of Shen Shuofeng's mouth, and even if Chan Yi had more concerns, she had to send someone to invite Chu Shaoyuan.

Kepai's family came back and said: "The prince left the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry early, and now where the people have gone, even the masters of the Yamen don't know." ”

When Shen Shuofeng heard this, he suddenly stood up, and said in his mouth: "Oh no, the prince must have gone to Mingyan Tower." ”

Chanyi was a little frightened by Shen Shuofeng's nervousness, "What is the matter?

You must know that Chu Shaoyuan has never been willing to go to Zhuangzi, because the road is not easy to walk, and it is still far away, if you don't arrange it in advance, I'm afraid that there will be no place to rest.

Shen Shuofeng knew how much Chu Shaoyuan valued Chanyi in his heart, so he didn't want to hide it, and said in a low voice: "The crown prince, the fourth prince will definitely make some moves in the near future, and there are ghosts in Mingyan Tower, so I want to discuss it with the prince." ”

Chanyi sighed in her heart, she didn't expect the prince to die so soon.

The crown prince of the previous life obviously died a few years later, and once he was reborn, the prince's death changed.

If you think of Mingyanlou and think of those uncomfortable things, then Shen Shuofeng's sentence aggravates these discomforts, after all, Mingyanlou is something that cannot be put on the table, since the hands of the four princes can reach over, it means that someone in this killer has been shaken, otherwise there will be no such thing as today.

She raised her head and looked at Shen Shuofeng: "Then why did the prince go to Mingyan Tower?"

Shen Shuofeng looked at Chanyi's glass-like eyes, and didn't dare to say a word more.

As the old saying goes, the more you say, the more wrong you are.

Chanyi didn't bother to chat with him, so she hurriedly pulled the cart out of the stable, and after putting it on, she was about to leave.

Shen Shuofeng's eyes flickered a little: "Princess, you'd better stay at home, otherwise the prince will come back ......"

What he didn't say was that when the prince came back, the princess, you would naturally be fine, but the prince would sprinkle all his anger on his head.

He's been unlucky enough today, and he really doesn't want anything bad to happen again.
