() Qi Yuan set off to Qingmu Palace.

After not seeing her for a few days, Yin Qingqi seemed to be a little depressed, sitting alone in the boudoir reading a book.

"Why?"

Qi Yuan glanced around, there were no superfluous furnishings in the house, it was still some simple wooden furniture.

"Nothing." Yin Qingqi has some migraines, since the last time she left at Concubine Shu's, Yin Qingqi has been a little abnormal, "How are you handling your affairs?" ”

"Ugh."

Qi Yuan let out a long sigh.

"Now the situation is very unoptimistic, Dong Yu and Lao Liu have turned their faces."

"Flip the face?" Yin Qingqi frowned, and the two turned their faces, one held the lifeblood of most of the people in the court, and the other had the power of military horses.

"Could it be that Dong Yu wants to rebel?"

"It's worse than that." Qi Yuan shook his head, "It would be good if I really did it, I could clean up Dong Yu openly, now inside and outside the palace, there is news that the sixth elder brother is going to rebel." ”

"There is a reason for this."

"Hmm." Qi Yuan nodded, "There are indeed a lot of rumors in the capital, and the news from nowhere that comes that Du Jiang, the prefect of Yangzhou, has been killed by the sixth elder brother. ”

"It's such a big thing, why haven't I heard about it at all?" Yin Qingqi looked puzzled.

In the past few days, Concubine Shu has been staring at herself, hoping to get the news of Qi Yuan from Yin Qingqi.

And Qi Yuan has been mysteriously in the past few days, and he has always been busy with the affairs of the Jinghong Pavilion in the capital, and he has not had time to take care of these, and Yin Qingqi has not had the opportunity to reveal it to him.

This is the first time Qi Yuan has come, and he has brought such serious news.

"I suspect that this matter was passed on by Dong Yu." Qi Yuan rubbed his eyes, his long-term exhaustion made him a little sleepy.

"But Du Jiang is Dong Yu's person." Qi Yuan's eyes deepened, and he looked hesitant.

"How so? In this case, it doesn't make sense at all, right? Yin Qingqi also looked puzzled.

"You don't know." Qi Yuan frowned, "In the past few days, you have been staying in the palace, so you don't know much about what happened in the capital, Dong Yu has been looking for me these days to discuss some things." ”

"Dong Yu looking for you?"

Dong Yu and Qi Yuan have always been at odds, but at this time, they suddenly came to the door?

"Yes, in my opinion, it is because he wants to completely split with the sixth elder brother, and the sixth elder brother is dragged down by the concubine Liang The influence is too great, and Dong Yu, the old thief city mansion, is naturally planning something."

Qi Yuan was also distressed.

In the past few days, the old gentleman under his command has never revealed the news he knows, the news about the colleague who was lost in Shuzhou.

Moreover, the sixth master has been in a hurry these days, and he often goes in and out of the palace, because he has his own edict, so it is also extremely convenient, but Qi Yuan is worried that he will be in the same league as the fourth master under the sixth elder brother.

If this is the case, the two of them have almost all the connections and news in the capital, and it is extremely difficult to deal with.

After the accident in the Jinghong Pavilion, Qi Yuan had no intention of marrying Yin Qingqi, although the days were approaching day by day, but the recent situation in the capital also made Qi Yuan extremely distressed.

"What are you going to do?" Yin Qingqi saw that Qi Yuan's face was not good, so she stepped forward to ask, wanting to comfort him.

"Don't worry, although I can't help you in the capital, I can still help you inquire about the news in the palace at any time, and there are so many subordinate aunts, they can all develop into our eyeliner."

"Still don't."

Qi Yuan shook his head and made up his mind to tell Yin Qingqi.

"I have investigated, and the imperial doctor in Dali Temple was robbed by the people of the East Palace."

"Donggong? How do you know it's someone from the East Palace? ”

"Huh." Qi Yuan snorted coldly, with a sneering look on his face, "It's not a good thing that the sixth child did, in order to hide people's eyes, the sixth deliberately let those people change into the clothes of the East Palace, and sewed a crescent moon on the cuffs, so as to impersonate my people." ”

"It turns out that this is the reason why you didn't let me embroider before." Yin Qingqi nodded.

And Yin Qingqi was also slightly disappointed.

Now that the old gentleman is in the hands of the sixth elder brother, I am afraid that it is already a catastrophe, if the sixth elder brother knows that this person can use it to threaten the lady concubine, he will not let him appear in people's field of vision.

In other words, the agreement between himself and Concubine Shu Niangniang may soon be fulfilled.

"That...... Qi Yuan. ”

Yin Qingqi was hesitant and didn't know how to speak.

"Who have you arranged for an investigation recently?"

What Concubine Shu wanted was Qi Yuan's daily information, in exchange for Xue Tan's life.

"I met someone in Dali Temple." Qi Yuan frowned, Yin Qingqi was a little abnormal today, in the past, she would never ask about these things in the palace and the court.

"He was a judge and a colleague of Zhao Decheng, and he told me that he had been in Yangzhou City for a while, and Chang Lei had also been in Yangzhou, so I asked him to help me investigate the affairs of the Yangzhou prefect by the way

。 ”

"Chang Lei?" Yin Qingqi frowned, this name seems to have been heard somewhere.

"I forgot you didn't know yet."

Qi Yuan suddenly realized that Chang Lei had been in one-line contact with him, and he had always hidden it well, if he hadn't been forced to rescue him that day, Xue Tan would have died, and Chang Lei would have exposed his identity like this.

"Chang Lei was an informant in my past, because his whereabouts in the capital were exposed, so I had to send him to Yangzhou."

After speaking, Qi Yuan's words changed, and his face became gloomy.

"I was there, and I found a man."

Qi Yuan stared at Yin Qingqi's face, trying to see the subtle changes in her expression.

"Xue Tan."

Yin Qingqi's face turned pale suddenly, Qi Yuan frowned, as expected, it seems that something is still happening between the two.

Xue Tan? How could he be in Yangzhou? Isn't he hiding in the capital?

"Why is he in Yangzhou?"

Yin Qingqi still didn't restrain herself, and couldn't help asking.

"I heard that I was also entrusted by someone."

Qi Yuan snorted coldly.

Although he didn't know everything about Xue Tan, he also knew about it.

Xue Tan pretended to be in his own name, and he actually took an official position in the Yangzhou prefect, and it seemed that he planned to stay there completely, and he had no intention of returning to Beijing.

That's fine.

Qi Yuan comforted himself in his heart, otherwise, Yin Qingqi's heart would be difficult to contain.

Regarding Xue Tan's desire to elope with Yin Qingqi, there was a lot of rumors in the entire palace.

And Qi Yuan didn't have time to take care of these rumors, and he didn't even have time to organize an investigation into these people's groundless rumors.

Yin Qingqi naturally knew about it, and she felt that most of this matter was related to Concubine Shu.

Since the death of Concubine Liang, Concubine Shu has approached Qi Yuan intentionally or unintentionally, it seems that because he is in power, Concubine Shu's arrogant attitude towards others on weekdays was not revealed when she met Yin Qingqi.

It seems that she is still plotting for the position of the mother of the country.

Capital.

Night.

The whole capital is quiet, the capital after the brothel of the Qinglou is missing, it seems to be particularly deserted, the whole street is only a lonely lamp on, the bluestone road is shrouded in darkness, and there are bursts of cicadas in the night.

A group of centaurs were walking towards the only light......
