Chapter Eighty-Three: The Mystery of the West Palace 5

Xin Ran heard footsteps and talking outside in the cave, so he listened intently, and the person who heard the voice was Chen Ming, probably after getting up in the morning, seeing that he was not there, he came here to look for himself. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xin Ran hurriedly pulled Shi Yaxing out, and as soon as he walked out of the cave, he saw Chen Ming walking this way, and Xin Ran hurriedly took Shi Yaxing to greet him.

At this time, Chen Ming also saw Xin Ran, so he came to Xin Ran in small steps, and said, "Second brother, it turns out that you are here, let me find it." ”

Seeing a very beautiful woman standing next to Xin Ran, with an elegant temperament, he asked again: "Second brother, who is this sister? It turns out that you didn't see anyone early in the morning because you were dating this big beauty." ”

Xin Ran saw that Chen Ming was a little jealous, and for a while, he didn't know how to say it, so he smiled and said: "Fourth sister, don't misunderstand, this is Prime Minister Shi Cheng's daughter, who got up in the morning for his brother, thinking about walking around to see if there were any clues about the case or something, and just ran into Miss Shi." ”

Then he introduced Chen Ming to Shi Yaxing.

Shi Yaxing also saw that Xin Ran seemed to be a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly played a round and said: "Sister of the Chen family, I have heard of your name a long time ago, and I have never had the opportunity to meet. ”

Chen Ming saw that Shi Yaxing said very politely, plus Shi Yaxing was the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so naturally she was not so casual, and said politely: "My sister is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she is of noble birth, and it is really an honor for my little sister to be able to see my sister's demeanor today." ”

After the two were polite to each other, Shi Yaxing said to Xin Ran and Chen Ming: Okay, don't bother you, I'm going back to my residence, otherwise my father won't see me, and he will definitely be in a hurry. “

After finishing speaking, Shi Yaxing took her leave.

Seeing Shi Yaxing walking away, Chen Ming pushed Xin Ran and quipped: "Second brother, you still see, everyone has gone away, do you like others?" ”

When Xin Ran heard Chen Ming say this, his face turned red all of a sudden, and he said again and again: "No, no." ”

Chen Ming smiled: "Look, your face is red, I said something on your mind, I see that your relationship with this sister seems to be a little unusual, like this sister, don't worry, I won't be jealous." ”

Xin Ran saw that Chen Ming was talking more and more, and it was estimated that it was useless for him to distinguish, so he changed the topic and asked, "Fourth sister, what is the matter with me early in the morning?"

"Breakfast, you see what time it is. Chen Ming pointed his finger at the sky and said to Xin Ran.

When Xin Ran saw Chen Ming say this, he immediately returned to the small courtyard where they lived with Chen Ming.

I saw that breakfast had been set on the table in the room, Chen Wenduan was sitting at the table waiting, and when he saw the two of them coming back from outside, he said, "Sit down and eat breakfast together." ”

The three of them chatted while eating, and Chen Wenduan asked Xin Ran, "Brother Xin, in your opinion, what should we do today?"

Xin Ran saw Chen Wenduan asking himself, so he thought for a while, and then replied: "Brother Chen, I see that our soldiers are divided into two ways today, you and Sister Ling, and then go to Gonggong Li to ask if there is anything else he misses;

Chen Ming was a little unhappy when he heard that Xin Ran had arranged for him to be with his brother, so he said to Xin Ran: "I'm still with you."

Chen Wenduan also smiled and said, "Brother Xin, I think it's better to let the sister-in-law be with you." ”

"Now the situation in this palace is a bit complicated, Brother Chen, you are a civil official, and Sister Ling is by your side to protect you, so I am more at ease. Xin Ran said to Chen Wenduan's brothers and sisters.

Chen Wenduan saw Xin Ran say this, and said disapprerovitically: "Brother Xin, it's not so serious, the palace is full of guards from the Imperial Forest Army, it should be fine." ”

"It's better to be careful. Xin Ran said to Chen Wenduan.

Then Xin Ran persuaded Chen Ming to focus on the overall situation and take care of his brother.

Seeing Xin Ran's insistence, Chen Wenduan's brothers and sisters also nodded and agreed to Xin Ran's arrangement.

After the three of them finished breakfast, they went their separate ways.

Chen Wenduan's brothers and sisters went to find Gonggong Li.

Xin Ran did not delay, and walked to the room where Zhang Haishan, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, was detained.

After a while, he came to the room where Zhang Haishan, the master of the Ministry of Works, was detained.

To Xin Ran's surprise, there was no one in the guards arranged at the door of the room, Xin Ran couldn't help but be shocked, thinking that something was wrong, and was about to push open the door, when he suddenly heard someone inside who seemed to be arguing about something.

So Xin Ran immediately withdrew his hand, and instead of pushing the door, he looked inside through the crack in the door.

I saw that there were two people inside, one was Zhang Haishan, the imprisoned secretary of the Ministry of Works, and the other turned out to be Xia Zhen of the Royal Forest Army.

Seeing Zhang Haishan's expression was very angry, he seemed to be very dissatisfied with Xia Zhen, and shouted: "Lord Xia, what happened back then, we swore a poisonous oath with Lord Sun Jinnan together, and we will not leak half a sentence for the rest of our lives, I didn't expect you to still be at ease, and you quietly killed everyone while they lived in a courtyard, and what is even more shameful is that you actually blamed me, you are too ruthless." ”

Seeing Zhang Haishan say this, Xia Zhen was also very annoyed, and said: "Lord Zhang, you are really a fool, I, Xia Zhen, have always been as good as a mountain, since I have sworn a poisonous oath, how can I harm Lord Sun Jinnan again, isn't it that you are afraid that Lord Sun will leak this secret, and kill Lord Sun Jinnan while he is unprepared." ”

For a while, the two argued fiercely in the room, and they seemed to accuse each other of killing Sun Jinnan.

After a while, the two seemed to be a little tired from arguing, and slowly calmed down.

Xia Zhen asked: "Lord Zhang, we don't admit to killing Lord Sun Jinnan, isn't it the people who took revenge on us back then?"

"It's impossible, everyone was killed back then, how can there be anyone. Zhang Haishan replied.

Xia Zhen said: "There is no absolute thing in this world, I am not afraid of 10,000, I am afraid that if there is a fish that slips through the net." ”

For a moment, both of them fell into deep thought, and did not speak for a long time.

In the end, Xia Zhen opened his mouth and said to Zhang Haishan: "No matter what, Lord Zhang, you and I share honor and disgrace, please believe me, Lord Sun Jinnan was indeed not killed by me, and I will not harm you." ”

After saying that, he got up and walked outside.

Seeing that Xia Zhen was about to come out, Xin Ran hurriedly started his light work, turned around, rose and fell, and hid behind a boulder in front of the courtyard.
