Yesterday after returning from a field trip, Xue Rui had a good night's sleep, slept until dawn, got up early in the Wangji Building, and went to the Yamen to order.

At the beginning of the month of Dali Temple, Xue Rui sat with a few colleagues for a while, then left first, and went straight to Qianyuan Street, half an hour later, he came back again, and there was an extra report in his hand.

Xue Rui entered the study in the back hall where he usually rested, closed the door, sat down in the back window, cut the fire paint seal, shook out a piece of tissue paper, and after looking at it carefully, his brows were tightly locked.

From Yu Shu's divination, it can only be determined that the man Xiao Ji who has an affair with the tenth princess, starting from this clue, there are not a few young talents in the capital who can meet the conditions.

But from the perspective of the identity of the tenth princess, there are only a few men who have the opportunity to enter and leave the palace and approach her.

One is the left deputy commander of the Yulin Army, the nephew of Concubine Shu, and the third son of the Yin family of the first gate of Anling, Yin Yuanrong.

One is the Wenhua Palace's servant, and at the age of fifteen, he was named Tanhualang, Kong Qi.

This is the last person, is the medical judgment of the Tai Hospital, the second son of the Zhu family of "Danzhu Gaoyang", who ranks first in the twelve prefectures of the capital, and the only son of the current Da Tidian, Zhu Qingjue.

These three people, like him, are all the leaders of the younger generation in Anling City, and in terms of character, Xue Rui feels that Yin San is the most suspicious.

Yin Yuanrong is a well-known romance, at the foot of the capital, there are some famous people in the Fangguan of Flower Street, who have been entangled with him Yin San, so romantic, it is not surprising to do such a thing as seducing the princess.

But when it comes to talents, Xue Rui feels that the tenth princess will not die for a man like Yin Yuanrong. However, Zhu Qingjue's possibility is greater.

Talking about the second son of the Zhu family, even Xue Rui has to be called a strange person-

Since Si Tianjian raised the new appointment more than ten years ago, the Zhu family has become the first of the twelve mansions, and they can be called the world's families, all of which have family heirlooms, such as the creation of the Xin family, the fortune of the Lu family, and the star map of the Sima family, while the Zhu family has a secret art of seeing people.

Zhu Qingjue is the only son of Da Tidian. Just when everyone had no doubt that he would inherit his father's mantle. But he openly refused to participate in the Dayan exam, and he ran away from home at a young age, and after a long time, he came back. He became a disciple of the world-famous Nanmiao Medicine King. He ignored the Zhu family's face. A stall was set up on Qianyuan Street to practice medical treatment free of charge.

This back and forth has cured many ordinary people. He also became famous because of this, there are rumors among the people who ate his prescription, no matter whether it is a big or small illness, it can be cured to get rid of the disease, three years ago, Zhu Qingjue had the reputation of a small medicine king, and after the emperor made an exception and ordered him to the hospital, no one dared to talk about his strength.

Zhu Qingjue's deeds were regarded as a typical example by the upper class, and he taught his own family a lesson, and some elders often said to the juniors:

"If you are really capable, then learn from Zhu Ergongzi, go out alone, and come back to say whether you are a hero or a bear!"

Thinking of Zhu Qingjue, Xue Rui's mind was a little complicated, after the incident of the tenth princess three years ago, he resigned to his grandfather and left Beijing, Xue Lingnan also said something like this-

"If you want to leave, the old man will never stop you, but if you go, you have to change your face, don't hang the name of my Xue family, see that you are no longer the eldest son of the Xue family, there are still a few people in this world who look up to you, see what climate you have become."

Compared with Zhu Qingjue's original high-profile, Xue Rui's departure from Beijing was quiet, he left silently, and came back quietly, the insider only said that he was sad because of the death of the tenth princess, so he traveled far away, but no one knew where he was in the days when he left.

Xue Rui and Zhu Qingjue, one is a famous family, and the other is a child of a family, both young and promising, in the eyes of the people, the former follows the rules, and the latter deviates from the norm, which are the two most distinctive examples that the adults and men of the capital use to teach their children.

These two people are often compared, but there is not much intersection between the two, at most they know each other.

Other than that, no one knows, they also have a small holiday.

Therefore, Xue Rui doesn't have much friendship with Zhu Qingjue, but he doesn't have much affection either.

He pondered each of the three suspects, and after knowing it in his heart, he lit the candle and burned the report in his hand.

Yin Yuanrong, Kong Qi, Zhu Qingjue, who is the man who let the tenth princess seek death and make him guilty, he must find out clearly.

Seeing that it will be the Hibiscus gentleman's banquet in a few days, and the ladies who received the banquet stickers from other families are all cutting new clothes and making jewelry, Yu Shu is good, and he didn't bother to prepare at all, so he only let the kidney soybean milk wash a summer skirt to wear it on that day, and most of the time is still spent on repairing the law of disaster.

Just because she doesn't pay attention doesn't mean that others don't pay attention.

She had just had breakfast at home that morning, Pei Jing came to the door, and Yu Shu heard the report from the porter, so she went to the living room in the front yard to see her.

"Why is my uncle free today, is the crystal stone sold?"

Yu Shu saw that he made a special trip to the door, and thought that there was some good news, she was short of silver recently, and she wished that the crystal stone would be sold as soon as possible.

Pei Jing said: "What's the hurry, it's not time to make a move." I'm here to ask you today, I heard that there is a hibiscus gentleman's banquet in Beijing every year on June 6, but you were invited? ”

Yu Shu didn't know why, nodded and said, "I received the banquet sticker." ”

Pei Jing was overjoyed, and then asked, "I heard that Master Xu gave you a complete set of crystal objects, have you raised them all?" ”

Speaking of this stubble, Yu Shu couldn't help but feel a little depressed, according to her original meaning, it is best to carve the crystal stones into small objects, and there are only a lot of them.

Who knew that the craftsman Master Xu was interested, and he actually made his own opinion, and took the remaining four-color crystal stones from her last time, and figured out a set of jewelry heads, hairpins and beads, necklace earrings, bracelets, and inlaid with gold and silver, exquisite is exquisite, beautiful is beautiful, beautiful is beautiful, but who has a lot of silver to buy this whole set of luxury things back?

"Well, it's all raised."

Pei Jing stroked his palm and said: "That's the best, you listen to me, this set of crystals, you go to the Hibiscus Gentlemen's Banquet to change them all, so that you can fight for eyeballs, and after the banquet, I can almost start asking for the price."

What is the most important thing at the Hibiscus gentleman's banquet, handsome men and beautiful women? Talented and beautiful? No, it's neither, the most at this banquet are rich and idlers.

Yu Shu's crystal stone is unforgettable, it's not that no one has inquired about a few chambers of commerce these days, Pei Jing heard the news, but he didn't put one thing out of his hand, but when the merchants gathered a few days ago, he let the Qin family wear two pieces and show his face, so that people knew that he had goods in hand.

In the past two days, people have been approaching him to bid for it, but unfortunately the price is not satisfactory, Pei Jing clenched his bite and did not let go, so he planned an opportunity so that more people could see this rare thing with their own eyes.

Now that the opportunity has come, where will he let it go, and there is Yu Shu's movable type signboard, no need to use it in vain.

Yu Shu understood Pei Jing's meaning, his eyes lit up, and he also felt that this was a good idea, so he immediately accepted it, followed by it, and started to worry again-

To match that exquisite set of crystals, she couldn't wear the clothes she had prepared before, and seeing that there were only a few days left for the banquet, where would she go to make the right clothes?

Pei Jing listened to her troubles, smiled and said:

"What are you afraid of, my uncle is in charge of half of the business of the Taehyung Chamber of Commerce, and there is still a shortage of good clothes and tailors, go, I will go with you to get a set of jewelry and take a look, and then find someone to tailor and embroider for you, we will ask your aunt to have a clever rouge lady, be sure that you are in the limelight that day, so that people can't take their eyes off."

When Yu Shu heard this, she imagined that her head was full of colors at the banquet, her eyes flashed brightly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching to look at Pei Jing who was gearing up on the other side, and wanted to say-

She regretted agreeing to this errand, okay?

***

On the fifth day of the sixth month, Yu Shu finished Fang Zijing's morning class, and went out of Xushui Hall with Situ Qinglan, talking about the method of pushing the palm on the "Chess Spirit Sutra" on the way, walked to the verandah in the east corner, and was stopped by someone.

"Yu Operator."

Yu Shu stopped and looked at a young male student opposite, but he didn't recognize it.

"In the lower ninth rank Yi Shi Song Ming," the man saluted her and said, "Academician Jing invites you to take a trip to the tea house." ”

It turned out to be a messenger, Yu Shu heard Jingchen looking for her, and secretly said that there was news from the "Xuannu Liuren Book", so he thanked the person who came, and after he left, he turned his head to say hello to Situ Qinglan, and lied casually:

"A few days ago, I asked Academician Jing for a question, this should have an answer, I'll go over and take a look, you go first."

Situ Qinglan didn't doubt her, so she went separately with her.

Yu Shu went alone in the direction of the garden

As soon as Yu Shu entered the tea house, he saw Jingchen standing under the window, his back was still clear, and he didn't know where to look.

Jingchen heard the footsteps, so he turned his head and saw Yu Shu walking towards him with a cold expression, and he came back to his senses in a moment, his fingers shook slightly, and an acacia leaf fell from the window in his palm.

"You're looking for me?" Yu Shu asked the "Xuannu Liuren Book" without opening his mouth, but Jing Chen was aware of her intentions prematurely.

Jing Chen raised his hand to cover half of the window, turned to face her, and said:

"I'm looking for a big reminder to find out the origin of the "Xuannu Liuren Book", would you like to listen to it?"

Yu Shu's eyebrows jumped, and he pretended to sneer: "I don't want to listen, don't you talk about it?" ”

Although Jingchen is used to her being targeted everywhere now, he still can't help but be a little obscure in his heart, pointing to the tea case on the side, and said:

"Let's sit down and talk."

After the two sat down, Jing Chen didn't sell it, and spoke again, directly saying the problem that Yu Shu was most concerned about-

"The Book of Xuannu Liuren" is the relic of Ning Zhen Niangniang, the founding queen of Da'an, and the posthumous training of Emperor Anwu, which is collected by each Si Tianjian Damen, and is only allowed to be seen by the emperor of the same dynasty. The big mention point did not explain what was recorded on it, but told me that when he took over this secret scroll, he was instructed by the previous big mention point, but anyone who coveted the "Xuannu Six Books" and had the heart to watch - there is no forgiveness for killing.
