Chapter 249: Ice Cellar Corpse Search
After staying in Beijing for a few days, the entourage Ah Xiang was very comfortable, he was served with good food and drink every day, sometimes he ran out secretly, and he could go to ** to mix around for a few hours, and when it was dark, he naturally returned to the place where the emperor sent someone to arrange it.
Today, as usual, he was drinking tea in the house, and was about to take a short break after using the tea before going out to have fun, when suddenly a group of people rushed into the house, and without saying a word, drove him out.
Ah Xiang's face was displeased, he still had the support of the prince of Yonghui more or less, and someone dared to go wild here? "Do you know who I am and how important I am to the emperor? If you dare to do this to me, you will regret it. ”
The person who dragged Ah Xiang continued to carry him out as if his eyes and ears were not good.
Knowing that out of the house, Ah Xiang was put down by the group of vicious people, he dusted off the dust that did not exist on his body, raised his head very arrogantly, and looked at the shadows in front of him with their backs to him, thinking about who he was, daring to be so bold, if there was any more impolite behavior, he would be about to raise the name of the son of Yonghui.
But I saw that those people slowly turned around, one of them was Yonghui Shizi, and the other two turned out to be women, one of them......
When he saw the face of one of the women in gorgeous clothes, Ah Xiang's legs instantly weakened, and he knelt down uncontrollably, quickly touched the ground with his head, and said in a pleading voice, "Okay...... Lord Nalan, the little one knocks to see the Lord of Nalan. (.)”
Lord of Nalan? Yonghui was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this woman was the county lord of the Dali Dynasty, no wonder, her whole body was full of indescribable luxury. Yonghui secretly looked at the woman named Nalan again, her complexion was fair, her eyebrows and eyes were very natural, and the official was as natural as heaven, he felt more and more that this person was very extraordinary, and he couldn't help but take a few more looks.
"Ah Xiang? Who did I bring over when Zhou Yi came, it turned out to be you. Glancing at the furnishings in the room behind Ah Xiang and the things on the table, the corners of Nalan's mouth curled slightly, "It seems that you have been doing well these days." The sudden death of your master, you can live so chic, I really doubt that the death of your master is not a bad thing for you, but a good thing. ”
Ah Xiang's arms were almost trembling, and he hurriedly kowtowed and confessed, "The county lord forgives, these are all arranged by the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the small ones are just lowly people, how dare they resist?" It's the same with the death of the master. ”
"Okay, I don't want to listen to your nagging here, let's go, follow me to see your master."
Ah Xiang almost thought that he had heard it wrong, he subconsciously glanced at Yonghui in dismay, and when he met the other party's very helpless eyes, he reacted, he didn't hear it wrong, "County Lord, the master has been dead for several days, although it is well preserved, but after all, ...... The identity of the county lord, looking at the past now, I am afraid it is not suitable. ”
"Is it appropriate, I don't need your **** to tell me, the prince of Yonghui has agreed, is it your turn to speak?"
Yonghui's face turned dark, he had never said the word "agree", from beginning to end, I am afraid that this beautiful Nalan County Lord thought it was himself.
"......"
"You know my character, and I never like to say it a second time."
Ah Xiang's shoulders trembled in fright, and he quickly got up from the ground and followed the crowd towards the place where the envoy Zhou Yi was settled.
In the cold ice cellar, an open coffin was placed in the center, and everyone was so cold that they curled up, but Ah Xiang was different, and the sweat on his forehead fell drop by drop like a drizzle.
Although Nalan was a woman, when she followed Yonghui inside, her pace did not pause at all, but walked more steadily than the guards beside her. Until they got close to the coffin.
When he saw Zhou Yi's deformed face, a slightly mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Nalan's mouth.
Yonghui was standing a little later, and when Nalan approached the coffin, he deliberately put his feet full and rubbed to Ah Xiang's side, intending to carefully inquire about this Nalan information. Not because he was not worried about the new envoy, but because he was very suspicious that Nalan had an unusual relationship with the former envoy Zhou Yi.
But Ah Xiang was about to whisper something, but was interrupted by a call.
"Ah Xiang?" Nalan stood next to the coffin and said coldly.
Ah Xiang didn't dare to delay, made a helpless expression to Yonghui, and stepped forward with his neck bent, "Yes, county lord." ”
"Search your master's body and see if there's anything there."
Ah Xiang almost didn't come out in one breath, and directly suffocated to death. What did the man tell him to do? Frisk? Search the body of a dead man?
"County Lord, the master's body has been cleaned, and it has also been inspected by the imperial doctor and the servant, so there shouldn't be anything."
"Should?" Nalan asked rhetorically, the expression on his face a little terrifying.
Ah Xiang didn't dare to look up, "Yes...... The little ones aren't sure. ”
"Very good, then search, you also said, he was quieted down, but the clothes are still his own clothes, right? I want something on his body, not his body, don't talk nonsense, search! Covering his lips with a silk handkerchief, Nalan took a small step back.
Ah Xiang almost gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand into the coffin with his eyes closed. The tentacles were all cold.
From the moment he promised the prince of Yonghui to frame his master, Ah Xiang never thought that he had today, he thought that he would never see him again after the master died, who would have thought that he would not only see it today, but also touched it.
Countless "Amitabha" floated by in the bottom of my heart, but it was too late to hold the Buddha's feet temporarily. Ah Xiang could almost imagine the scene in his dream tonight, when the master was looking for his life.
Just thinking about it, suddenly, he paused his hand, unconsciously groped up, his intuition was that he had touched something like paper, and a thought flashed in his mind, the thing that the county lord was looking for may be this, but this thing is a good thing or a bad thing for himself Ah Xiang didn't dare to decide, he subconsciously continued to slide his hand forward, but it was too late.
Nalan, who has excellent eyesight, has long seen the spearhead, "Okay, Ah Xiang, stop pretending, take out what you touch." ”
"County Lord, little ......"
"You were a thief for a while before you talked to Zhou Yi."
Ah Xiang knelt down instantly, his experience in this area had already been whitewashed by Master Zhou Yi, how did the county lord know?
In desperation, Ah Xiang finally took out an envelope that he had taken out.
The envelope was golden, folded into three folds, and placed on the innermost side, which was obviously something that Zhou Yi attached great importance to. The little girl took it directly, opened the envelope, and handed a piece of stationery and a small seal to her master.
