Chapter 116: Finding the Clue
Hu Yi nodded in disbelief, not dwelling on this question, and continued to talk about the jade seal: "According to your understanding of the first emperor, where do you think the first emperor will hide the jade seal?" ”
"According to King Qin, the first emperor knew that the general trend had gone, so he deliberately asked your father to show favor to the one on the dragon chair now, and after gaining his trust, the first emperor handed over the clues of the jade seal of the country to your father, from this matter, the first emperor seems to think that the most dangerous place is the safest place?" Nightshade had a serious complexion, occasionally frowning.
"So......" Hu Yiyi's gaze returned to the silk with a small piece of lattice painted on it, and a flash of inspiration flashed, but it was caught by Hu Yiyi, "Palace!" ”
Hu Yiyi was a little excited: "Look at this, this piece of it, doesn't it look like the layout of those palaces in the palace?" Here, the middle of this side is round, and the imperial garden in the palace is similar to this, and then it should be ...... next to it."
Hu Yiyi chattered excitedly.
Yeshu has always listened to Hu Yiyi talking with a smile, and his eyes are as warm as jade.
As for the matter of passing on the jade seal, he thought that Hu Yiyi should have reservations in this matter after knowing that he was the son of Emperor Yonghe, but who knew that Hu Yiyi came to him as soon as he found clues today, and now he is sparing no effort to help unlock the secret on this map.
Look, his Ah Qi is such a cute girl, he can't even like it.
Hu Yi spoke for a long time, and when he talked about the cinnabar, he couldn't remember where it should be, so he looked up at Yeshu, but saw that Yeshu didn't seem to be listening to what she said, but kept looking at him with a doting gaze.
"Chu Xuan, what's wrong with you? Something on my face? Hu Yiyi shook his finger in front of the night tree's eyes.
"No, I just think Ah Qi is particularly good-looking today, so I can't help but take a second look." Ye Zhen looked at Hu Yiyi's embarrassed appearance because of the previous assassination, and remembered that Hu Yiyi ran towards him when he was blocked and had no way out, the smile on his face became deeper and deeper, and his heart throbbed a little.
Hu Yiyi said angrily: "We just experienced a burst of assassination, and I didn't even have time to clean up myself before I found this, so embarrassed, you still say it's good-looking!" Obviously a nonsense to deceive me! ”
"How can I talk nonsense," Ye Zhi naturally stretched out his hand, took Hu Yi into his arms, and sighed, "I just think it's a good weather today." ”
Although Hu Yiyi didn't quite understand what Yeshu was talking about, this did not prevent her from leaning on Yeshu's arms peacefully and feeling each other's heartbeats at this moment.
"If the person who sent someone to assassinate us knew that we had found the heirloom jade seal by mistake, he would probably be angry." Hu Yi felt a little happy when he thought about it.
"If it weren't for him, we might never have known that this thing was hidden in a bead made of rosewood," Ye Shu also smiled, "I guess this is called stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, so it doesn't take much effort to get there!" ”
"I'm not familiar with the palace, can you tell where this is?" Hu Yi pointed to the place where the cinnabar was dotted.
"This place is a little off, it should be somewhere in the harem, and when I go back, I'll take out the map in the palace and take a look, compare it carefully, and then go to the palace to make sure that you can know." Yeshu is not very sure, after all, he is not familiar with the harem.
"It doesn't matter, we have already found this, and the jade seal of the country will not be far away." Hu Yi nodded.
After Hu Yi thought about it, he still felt that he should copy a drawing, so as not to get mixed up when they got it, then he really couldn't find the jade seal.
"I haven't seen the painting painted by the king yet, why don't you take this opportunity and show me a hand?" Hu Yiyi handed the pen and ink to the night tree.
Yeshu raised her eyebrows, and said a little helplessly: "That's it?" Is this also a painting? You can't help but underestimate me, although I am not proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but at least I still know a little bit about it. ”
"Then you have to draw it well, although this picture is simple, but there are a lot of lines!"
"Alright, you go and sit over there, and I'll call you when I'm done!" Yeshu pushed Hu Yiyi away from his side and let Hu Yiyi go to rest.
At first, Hu Yiyi sat there quietly watching the drawings of the night tree, and felt that it was very pleasing to the eye, but after looking at it, Hu Yiyi fell asleep on the table.
When Hu Yi woke up and found that she was already lying in bed, she looked around and saw at a glance that he was still painting.
"How did I fall asleep? Haven't you finished painting yet? Hu Yiyi said as he walked towards the night tree.
When she walked to Yeji's side, Yeshu just put down her pen.
"This ......" Hu Yi looked at the things painted by the night tree and was shocked.
"Just draw that picture, where my painting skills can be reflected, of course I have to draw something else, Sleeping Beauty, what do you think?" Nightshade held up her painting.
Yeshu looked at the painting, and then at Hu Yiyi.
Hu Yi glanced at Ye Zhen, took the painting from Ye Zhen's hand, and complained while looking at it: "I'm so tired and embarrassed, why are you still painting?" ”
The painting of the night tree is exactly the appearance of Hu Yiyi leaning back on the chair and accidentally falling asleep.
The girl lay quietly on the table with her hands on the pillow, her eyes were slightly closed, her hair was slightly messy, the black hair scattered below was like a cloud, and there was a slight smile on her face, but there seemed to be some cloud-like sorrow between her eyebrows, her eyelashes were like butterflies, her red lips were like begonias, her skin was like clotted fat, and her silk was slightly messy, and the pearls placed next to her were not as good as the girl's shining sleeping face.
"How's it going, are you satisfied?" Ye Shu saw Hu Yi staring at the painting intently, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.
"Not bad." Hu Yi pursed his lips, ready to put the paintings on a few cases over there, and put them away when they were dry.
Who knew that she had just taken a step, and the painting in her hand was snatched away by the night tree: "The painting I painted naturally belongs to me, you have to take it without saying a word, how can this work." ”
Hu Yiyi: "......"
In the end, the painting still fell into the hands of the night tree.
After making noise for a while, Hu Yi felt a little hungry, so he asked the tortoiseshell to order the kitchen to make some food, and when the two of them were full of wine and food, they went to the Cloud Desert Pavilion, and there was a faint cool breeze blowing on the Cloud Desert Pavilion, blowing away some of the heat air, and after it was cooler, the two began to talk about the assassination this afternoon while drinking tea.
As soon as he said two words, he saw Qing Dai come to report that Hu Zijue and Wei Jin were here.
"I guess they've heard about it too, so they've come over and ask about it." Hu Yi hurriedly went out to greet the two, and Yezhen's eyes darkened.
When Hu Zijue and Wei Jin arrived at Yun Mo Pavilion, they found that Ye Zhen was also there, he sat on the main seat, and greeted the two of them as it should be: "Lord Hu and Lord Wei hurry up and sit down and taste the tea made by this king." ”
Hu Zijue subconsciously glanced at Wei Jin, but saw that there was nothing strange on Wei Jin's face, and sat down opposite Yeshu very naturally, Hu Zijue also sat down, and finally Hu Yiyi sat next to Yeshu.
"Today, I am fortunate to be able to drink the tea made by the king of the county." After Wei Jin took a sip of tea, he sighed.
"Those who come are guests, and whoever comes to this king will make a cup of tea to welcome them." Ye Zhen smiled and poured another cup of tea for Wei Jin, posing as his master.
"That's not everyone who has this opportunity to visit the Hu family, but the lower officials are a little curious, and the king of the county seems to be a guest, right? How can you still say that you are welcome? Could it be that when did General Hu recognize the king of the county as his righteous son? If this is the case, the lower officials should congratulate the county king. Wei Jin quietly drank another glass.
Both of them had smiles on their faces, and they looked very harmonious, but the atmosphere was really not good.
"My father has been gone for several years, what did Master Wei say," Hu Yi laughed, although she didn't know how Ye Zhi was so hostile to Wei Jin, she could only help Ye Zhi speak, and then changed the topic: "You must have heard about today's events?" ”
Hu Zijue and Wei Jin both nodded.
"What the hell is going on? I've only heard that something happened to you here, and someone died, so I don't know about it. Hu Zijue said.
"It's true that there are dead people, and there are quite a few dead," Hu Yiyi's face turned cold, "But it's not my people who died, but the other party's people." ”
"So you've been assassinated? In this house?! Hu Zijue was a little surprised, after all, in his opinion, the Hu family was a general's mansion after all, and the guards were much stricter than ordinary mansions, so how could there be assassins breaking in.
"It is true that the assassination was found, and the other party still has a lot of manpower, and the moves are ruthless." Hu Yi nodded, her face was a little ugly, she thought that she had done a good job of guarding the house, but she didn't expect to be broken in silently, and there were so many people who broke in.
"The guards in the house are good enough to deal with ordinary people, but they are still a little worse than those well-trained dead soldiers." Yeshu immediately comforted Hu Yiyi, and patted Hu Yiyi's shoulder very unabashedly.
In front of his second brother and Wei Jin, Hu Yiyi still felt a little embarrassed, so he glared at Yeshu lightly, in exchange for a doting smile from Yeshu.
Hu Zijue suddenly felt that his teeth were a little sore.
"It's a dead man?! Can the county king be sure? Wei Jin didn't seem to see the interaction between the two.
Ye Shu let out a soft "um", and there was an undeniable momentum in her tone.
"If that's the case, then the scope of the people behind this is much smaller," Wei Jin continued, "Then does the county king know who sent the assassins?" Are those assassins trying to assassinate you, or do they want to assassinate Miss Hu? ”
There are not many people in the entire Dayan who can afford to raise the dead, so this range has been narrowed.
"It's only been a long time since the incident happened, even if you are Lord Wei, who has always judged the case like a god, you must not be able to find out so quickly, right? As for whether those assassins want to kill me or kill Ah Qi, does it make any difference? Ye Shu was a little casual and calm, but the arrogant momentum in his tone was undisguised.
Hu Zijue felt that if he was Wei Jin, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood at this time, but when he looked at Wei Jin, he saw that the other party's face was still as usual, and his posture was the same as always, and he didn't look affected at all, Hu Zijue couldn't help but give Wei Jin a thumbs up in his heart.
"Then I wonder if the county king has a rough guess about the person behind it now? There are not many people in the capital who raise dead soldiers, as for which ones they are, presumably the king of the county, as the commander of the Jinyi guard, should know very clearly, the king of the county might as well tell these people, let's take a closer look. Wei Jin even had a faint smile between his eyebrows.
"There's no need to refer to the details, this king just said that even if it is Lord Wei, you probably can't find it out in this small half a day, but if you don't say it, this king is not clear," there was a wicked smile on Ye Zhen's face, "So this king already knows who the person behind it is, so don't worry about Lord Wei." ”
