Chapter 541: Correspondence

She may not have met someone who speaks without scruples like Su Mian, she was a little frightened, and said with a white face: "Miss Su, you can't say that, I just want to take it for a walk, after all, you are also the first time to come to the Prince's Mansion, and you are not familiar with it." ”

Huanxi was too nervous, and her voice was a little trembling, Su Mian felt bored for a while, and pursed her lips with an unhappy expression.

Huanxi became even more nervous, and said tremblingly: "Miss Su, don't get me wrong, there are many rules in the house, and there are many places where you can't go, I'm not afraid that you will get lost, and there are many nobles in the house, if you collide with them, it won't be in vain." ”

Su Mian sneered unabashedly, and said coldly: "Don't you just want to follow me to spy on me, what do you do if you say it so well, just follow it if you want, I can't get out anyway." ”

was exposed, and he was not angry with joy, so he followed behind Su Mian without saying a word.

Su Mian was already upset, and she couldn't go anywhere, so she could only walk around the prince's mansion.

Huanxi has been following her, and Su Mian sometimes even looks at the courtyard wall a little weakly, so she simply doesn't turn around, and quickly goes back to the room.

Chu Jinglu and Lei Minmin really didn't disappoint her, just one morning, almost the entire Nanzhou people knew that their Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought back a woman who had become a relative and took someone else's wife.

And Gong Yuming in the palace didn't know about it at all, and he was still having a headache because of another thing.

Last night, the study room of Taifu's mansion caught fire, and the letters exchanged between Taifu and the prince were stolen.

Taifu Lei Yi, who is Lei Minmin's father, was standing in front of Gong Yuming at the moment, so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he explained vigorously: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this is really a sudden incident, our house has always been heavily guarded, but last night when I walked out of the water, someone lurked in, and the letter that was stolen and sealed in the armor is not clear about the purpose at the moment, which is really reassuring." ”

At this moment, there were only two of them in the side hall, Gong Yuming's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the hand holding the armrest of the chair was raised, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were rising.

He carefully recalled his correspondence with Lei Yi, and the more he thought about it, the more ugly his face became, and many things on it were simply unsightly.

His expression sank, staring at Gu Zhixing's back and asking: "What's the matter with you, didn't the palace tell you at the beginning, did you burn those letters after reading them, what are you doing with it, and you are still waiting to blackmail the palace in the future?" ”

He really didn't expect Lei Yi to be so bold and reckless, daring to keep those letters.

Lei Yi's face was full of panic, and when he heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he said humbly: "Your Highness has misunderstood, the old minister has no such thoughts, it's just ...... It's just that I didn't have time to deal with it, and I have been hiding the letter in a locked box, and it stands to reason that no one will know about it, and the person who stole the letter doesn't know where he learned anything, or he stole the box by mistake, Your Highness, for now we still have to think about what to do. ”

He knew that Gong Yuming would definitely be angry when he knew about it.

However, Lei Yi couldn't care so much anymore, he carried Gong Yuming to hide the letters on his back, but he was afraid that after the matter was completed in the future, Gong Yuming would not recognize their support.

But now something so important is lost.

Gong Yuming's face was pale, and he said gloomily: "Now you know that you are looking for help from this palace, but this palace doesn't even know who took it, how do you know what the other party wants to do, you better pray that those letters will not appear in front of your father, otherwise Taifu ...... I'm afraid I'm going to have to abandon you. ”

"Your Highness, no." Lei Yi's fat face was full of panic and panic, and he could no longer maintain his basic calmness, and prayed in a panic: "Your Highness, of course the letter cannot appear in the hands of Your Majesty, so we have to find a way to find out who is so bold, Your Highness, rest assured, I will do my best to investigate, and I will never give the other party a chance to report to the Holy Hearing." ”

Gong Yuming's face did not ease in any way, and his tone was low: "Then why don't you go down and check it out quickly!" ”

Lei Yi ran on the ground, but as soon as he opened the door of the side hall, he saw an arrow stuck in the door, and a piece of paper stuck in the scissor head, which seemed to have words on it.

Lei Yi glanced left and right, the side hall was quiet, because Gong Yuming was here, so he ordered to retreat the people around him, but just now they didn't hear the sound of archery, and it was not clear when this arrow appeared here.

This feeling was so frightening, Lei Yi felt that he wanted to walk in the dark, and countless eyes stared at him, and he couldn't stop his scalp from tingling, full of uneasiness.

He stood in place and took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and pulled out the arrow, took the paper on it, and didn't dare to open it, so he hurriedly entered the hall with both hands to show Gong Yuming.

Gong Yuming frowned and took the letter, on which an address was written, and a few words: "At noon today, prepare 10,000 taels of silver tickets and put them at this address, otherwise, those letters will appear in the emperor's imperial study on time, and I guarantee that she will see it as soon as possible." ”

The emperor is suspicious by nature, if he sees what the prince is plotting with the prince, the prince will definitely not get the good fruit of his identity to eat, and he will definitely be suspected, and then I am afraid that he will gradually lose trust, and even the position of the prince may not be able to grasp it at that time.

Seeing that Gong Yuming's face became more and more ugly, and the letters in his hand were all wrinkled by him, Lei Yi became more and more uneasy.

He waited for a long time before Gong Yuming said a word, so he dared to ask: "Your Highness, what did the letter say?" ”

Subconsciously, although he didn't know anything yet, Lei Yi knew that it might be related to what they had just discussed.

Because as soon as Gong Yuming raised his eyes and saw him, his eyes were full of fierceness, and he threw the paper ball in his hand on Lei Yi's body, and said angrily: "Look at the good things you caused yourself!" ”

Lei Yi's face sank, and he hurriedly picked up the paper ball on the ground, unfolded it, and after seeing the content on it, his legs and stomach trembled, and he murmured uneasily: "Ten thousand taels, this is ...... Isn't this taking advantage of the fire? ”

Gong Yuming ignored him, but kindly reminded him: "You'd better think about it quickly, where do you want to get this money, this palace won't pay for your stupidity." ”

"This ......" Lei Yi panicked and said at a loss, "Your Highness, aren't you sober about my situation, where did I get such a large amount of money, don't hide it from Your Highness, I'm afraid that the silver taels that the house can take out now are not more than three thousand taels, such a large amount of money, we really want to give it to him." ”

Gong Yuming took a breath, but he still couldn't suppress his irritability and anger, and asked angrily: "Don't give it?" So what do you want to do, do you want my father to see those letters and then become more and more dissatisfied with me, the crown prince? ”

Lei Yi's face was pale, he couldn't speak for a while, and he struggled for a long time to hold back a sentence: "Which bastard came up with such a bad trick!" ”

Gong Yuming narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were fierce and vicious, his eyes were deep, and he said coldly: "Let people go to the Prince's Mansion to get the silver taels and send them over according to this address, I want to see who is pretending to be a ghost behind his back." ”

This money doesn't have to be paid by himself, Lei Yi is naturally happy, for fear that Gong Yuming will think of making things difficult for him, and the soles of his feet will run away.

Lei Yi took Nan Xing to take the silver ticket in the prince's mansion, and according to the address written on the letter, it was sent to a remote alley, with a lot of sundries piled up in the box, and the left and right were transparent, and there were people coming and going, this is a famous refugee cave in Nanzhou City, and many people come and go here.

If it were to seal this place off just because the prince wanted to catch someone, it would be unrealistic.

And it's also very difficult to do, doing this, you may not be able to catch the person behind it, and it is particularly easy to cause dissatisfaction among the people.

The man behind him was obviously aware of this, so he thought of asking them to put the silver ticket directly under a piece of masonry in the alley.

Nan Xing put the silver ticket behind him, and kept leading people to guard the alleys on both sides, trying to eliminate the sneaky people.

But until the evening, nothing was found, and the silver ticket of the bricks and stones had been taken away from him right under his nose.

Nan Xing thought about it carefully, and only remembered that he was hit by a few chasing children for a while.

Then his gaze left the place, but in a matter of seconds, the silver ticket was taken.

Nan Xing, who realized this problem, quickly sank his face, and whispered to the people around him: "The people who come and go in this whole alley are probably related to the people behind this, just to confuse our sight, and we are underestimating this person." ”

The faces of the subordinates behind Nan Xing also sank, and they asked uncertainly: "Lord Nan, what should we do now, do we want to arrest all these people for interrogation?" ”

"Are you a pig's brain?" Nan Xing turned around and glanced at the person who spoke coldly, hating iron and not steel, "The prince said that you can't make too much noise, you arrest these people back, what kind of crime do you want to use, is it all over the street that the prince is being threatened?" ”

The subordinate knew that Nan Xing was in a bad mood, so he shut up, and waited for a long time for Nan Xing's face to calm down a little, and then asked softly: "Now that the silver ticket has been taken away, will we continue to stay here?" ”

"Go back." Nan Xing had a calm face and quickly left with someone.

When they were far away, Guan Yan, who had been hiding in a courtyard at the end of the alley, quietly opened the door, followed by several beggar-looking children.

Guan Yan distributed the broken silver that he had asked to prepare to the children, and said loudly: "Thank you, take the money to buy candy to eat, remember not to tell anyone that they have seen me here, otherwise, it will lead to death, understand?" ”

A few beggars and children reached out to take the silver, patting their chests and promising not to say anything.
