Chapter 269: Visit the Five Dragons Bridge

After the business, Xu Miaojin found the most appropriate time to whisper to Zhu Gaochi: "Gaochi, I'm here to save you." I'll figure it out, don't worry. ”

Zhu Gaochi nodded.

"Answer me honestly first, did Gao Sui offend the queen?"

"That's the Queen?" Zhu Gaochi understood, it was really no different from what he thought, that noble person turned out to be the queen.

"Nope! I promise! The third brother is not this kind of person, and I have asked him many times, and he definitely did not offend the queen! ”

"Okay, then I'll be relieved. If we can clarify this matter, the emperor will have no reason to detain you. Tell me in detail what happened that day. ”

"Hmm. On that day, the emperor summoned us to the palace at noon. He just asked us about our daily life and diet, and whether we were doing well in the capital. Later, he also said that he wanted to reassure his mother, as if he wanted to let us go. ”

"Oh? How could such a thing happen? Xu Miaojin sensitively understood that an impermeable net was woven behind this incident.

"When we left the palace, we passed the Wulong Bridge outside the Fengtian Gate, and heard someone on the bridge on the far left playing the piano, playing the waterfall and bead piano......"

"Ahh Xu Miaojin understood.

The third brother heard the sound of the piano and ran to the bridge, but the woman had already left in a hurry, and she didn't even see her face. She left this behind. ”

Zhu Gaochi took out a golden hairpin from his arms and handed it to Xu Miaojin.

"This is the Queen's golden hairpin?"

"It should be, and I think the emperor condemned the third brother on the grounds that the third brother took the queen's golden hairpin."

"And then?"

"Later, we went back to Fuchu. The second brother thought that the emperor would issue an order to release us, but unexpectedly, a holy decree from the third brother and below to detain us and not return to Beiping. That's how it all went. Auntie ......"

Zhu Gaochi wanted to help Xu Miaojin, but he didn't know what he could do.

"Okay, I got it. I've got to go first. Don't act rashly, I'll figure it out. ”

"Well, thank you, Auntie! I ......"

"Shhhh Don't be verbose. No one knows who I am. ”

Zhu Gaochi nodded, his eyes wet. He never expected that after being trapped in the capital as a hostage for so long, the first person to come to their rescue was the aunt who seemed to be weak and rarely met.

The late autumn night was dark and bitterly cold. The artists who gave concerts under the stars three months ago have taken refuge in caves prepared for hibernation.

Beneath the firmament there is only desolation and loneliness.

Xu Miaojin sneaked out of the residence and came to Wulong Bridge.

The Five Dragons Bridge is the heart of the whole affair, and the traces of a month ago may have vanished, but it is also possible that they have disappeared, just waiting for her arrival.

The Five Dragons Bridge in the middle of the night is a sleeping dragon. It consists of five single-hole arch stone bridges.

The bridge in the middle had the longest span and was only available to the emperor. The two bridges next to the royal road were used by the Imperial Family, and the outermost two bridges allowed the passage of the Minister of Civil Affairs and Military Affairs of the third rank and above.

According to Zhu Gaochi, the woman played the piano on the leftmost bridge, and Xu Miaojin went straight to the Wulong Bridge on the far left.

Although the night was the best shelter, she hunched over, moving her steps inch by inch, and looked around vigilantly.

The bridge deck is dusty, and the white marble pillars on both sides stand proudly, and the dragons on the pillars are happily playing between the bridges and waters, and they are the most active existence in this silence.

Xu Miaojin didn't have the heart to be happy because of the joy of the dragon, and was dedicated to exploring the unusualness of the Wulong Bridge and the Wulong River hidden in the night.

From the end of the bridge to the end of the bridge, and from the end of the bridge to the head of the bridge, she fumbled for an hour and found nothing.

She recalled Zhu Gaochi's words, word by word: "Gao Sui ran to the bridge when he heard the sound of the piano, but the woman had already left in a hurry......"

She suddenly realized, no wonder the dragon gum of the piano was broken, and the queen must have bumped the tail of the piano on the five dragon bridges.

Will there be traces here?

The queen lied to the emperor that she had met Zhu Gaosui at the gate of the Fengtian Palace and was treated lightly. As long as it is proved that the queen has come to the Wulong Bridge and plays the piano on the Wulong Bridge, Zhu Gaosui's predicament will be solved.

But she had walked back and forth on the bridge several times, and there was nothing but slate and white marble.

Where the hell is that trace?

Xu Miaojin looked up at the night sky, the bright moon tried to sprinkle more light on the earth, but it was still a drop in the bucket, she was too far away from this bridge and Xu Miaojin.

She may have seen those traces, and she may have wanted to tell Xu Miaojin, but she could only gaze silently.

Xu Miaojin shook his head, laughing at his whimsical nature, wanting to sneak into the palace to rescue his three nephews, and laughing at himself for having the blood of a man, but not having the ability of a man.

She recalled that she had tried her best to rescue the prince, but in the end she also failed.

She always wants to do more than she can do.

Xu Miaojin slowly walked towards the end of the bridge, feeling that he would not come again, maybe he would leave the palace early tomorrow morning and return home.

After getting off the bridge, she looked left and right, and to return to the palace, she had to choose to follow the door from the left to the left, or from the right door to the right.

Where should she go? At the moment, she didn't even know the easiest option.

A gust of wind swooped up from behind her, with malicious intent, lifting her clothes and blowing her hair away.

She covered her clothes, blew away the hair that blocked her vision with her mouth, and ran to the left at will, this embarrassment reminded her of the flustered queen.

She was suddenly struck by a flash of inspiration, and stood motionless on the bleak bluestone pavement.

Did the queen go back to the palace on the left or right after getting off the bridge? She didn't leave a clue on the bridge, will she leave a clue under the bridge?

Xu Miaojin lowered his head and walked to the left Shunmen, and then turned around and walked to the right Shunmen, still finding nothing.

The eastern sky gradually whitened, and before you knew it, the long dark night had passed.

Whether she wanted it or not, she had to go back to the Accounting Division at once. If they are found here, they will be expelled from the palace or put to death.

During the day, Xu Miaojin fell asleep while working, and the accountant pretended not to see it.

For more than a month, the female officials of the Shanggong Bureau have figured out the origin of Xu Miaojin.

Zhang Shanggong flattered her in every way, what they can't tolerate, whether it is reversing black and white, or pointing to a deer as a horse.

In a daze daydream, Xu Miaojin saw the Wulong Bridge, saw himself standing on the Wulong Bridge in frustration, saw Zhu Gaochi's expectant eyes, and the helplessness of his sister and brother-in-law.

She woke up and clutched her head. The questions that tormented her over and over again did not let go of her.

How can you prove that the queen came to the Wulong Bridge and played the piano on the Wulong Bridge?
