Chapter 208: Begin the investigation

Above the court, only the two people who confronted each other remained, refusing to give in to each other.

"What are you talking to me about?"

Qi Yuan tightened his grip on the dragon chair, trying to restrain his voice, so that no one outside could hear the suppressed roar in his throat.

"Nothing." Xue Tan was not to be outdone, "Just a friend." ”

"You promised me that." Qi Yuan calmed down, knowing that the inexplicable anger now would only make the situation more serious and not get a trace of progress.

"That was when the emperor was not in a coma, and now you have enough power and time to investigate this matter."

Xue Tan shook his head, as if he didn't remember what had been said between the two at all.

"Xue Tan!"

Qi Yuan finally couldn't help it, slapped the seat of the chair fiercely, stood up, and glared angrily at the man in front of him, the robe on his body shook, and a chill hit him instantly.

Xue Tan stood firm and looked directly at Qi Yuan, his gaze was equally cold.

"Why, are you going to condemn me to death now?"

"Why are you robbing her with me?"

When Qi Yuan said this, he felt a little ridiculous, the prince of a country couldn't get a woman, so what was the point of being a prince? !

"Are you saying she's not having a good time right now?"

"You know that in your own heart."

Xue Tan sighed, he understood that in Yin Qingqi's heart, in fact, there was only Qi Yuan all along, and he just couldn't swallow this breath, or rather, he wanted to grasp the remaining glimmer of hope.

"Although she is living a luxurious and luxurious life now, you are no longer the original His Royal Highness the Prince."

"I hurt her."

Qi Yuan shook his head, bit his lip, and sat down on the dragon chair, like an old man in his twilight years, without the brilliance of Fang Cai.

"That's why I need your help to make up for my previous mistakes."

"Alas......"

Xue Tan is also soft-hearted, Yin Qingqi's affairs, I'm afraid I can't manage it alone, after all, behind this, it involves the current saint.

"In the north of the city, there is a place called Dujiang Village, and after crossing the Dujiang River, you can see it."

"Du Jiang?"

Qi Yuan frowned, he knew what kind of place it was.

Since ancient times, it has been customary to build rivers around Kyoto, both to facilitate the circulation of goods and to defend against foreign enemies.

And Du Jiang used to be a pass, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Qi Yuan didn't know how many people Amma had sent there to guard the former maids and aunts, but it was definitely not a place to enter as soon as he said it.

What's more, he has just taken the position to act as the government, if it is known that he is fighting for a woman and sending troops to clean up, I am afraid that he will fall into the hands of others, and the sixth elder brother is also staring at it fiercely.

How good is that?

Xue Tan seemed to see Qi Yuan's concerns, and sneered.

He really can't let go of his identity, and the reason why Yin Qingqi opened his heart completely is one of them.

For the identity of the crown princess, or the imperial sister-in-law, I am afraid it is just a reassurance, and for Yin Qingqi, she has long cared about this matter.

Qi Yuan, who she needed, was desperate, and even angry, for her, for the suffering she had suffered.

"I'll help you."

Xue Tan did not hesitate this time.

He knew that he was not trying to please the future king of a country, but for the woman.

"Don't be complacent, I'm willing to help you, not for your identity."

Xue Tan explained that all this, if it weren't for Yin Qingqi's grievances, he wouldn't care about these realities if he said anything.

"I have a few people under me, all of whom are unfamiliar faces, and will help you."

I've already helped so much, and it's not bad this time.

"Thank you."

Qi Yuan rarely expressed his gratitude to people so sincerely.

Although he has always disliked this person for Xue Tan, many of them are because of Yin Qingqi, but as a courtier, he is a good candidate.

"Tomorrow morning, I will bring people to the city gate."

Xue Tan turned around and left, not giving Qi Yuan any courtesy, not like a monarch and minister, but like two people who had nothing to do with each other saying goodbye.

"Okay."

Qi Yuan took care of everything and returned to the East Palace.

He flipped through the recent memoranda, and a large part of it was about the Shuzhou rebellion, and he was upset to see it.

Although it has been a long time since the incident, as the crown prince who took over the government, he naturally needs to read all the recent twists and turns, so as not to ask the courtiers and not know anything about it.

Qi Yuan simply looked through some of them, most of them were useless nonsense, and there was no other useful content except for persuading the emperor to send troops.

This little thing, doesn't the emperor know? Do you want them to talk over and over again?

After Xue Tan was ordered to go on the expedition, everyone began to brag frantically about the emperor's great deeds.

What is said to be like a god, saying that Xue Tan's soldiers are noble and fast, and his military exploits are outstanding, none of them are about Dong Yu and the sixth elder brother.

Qi Yuan also probably knew what was going on.

These people are all some wall grass, and after reading the twists and turns of the past few months, instead of understanding who is the bottom of the sixth elder brother, they are confused.

Why they are so stupid, Qi Yuan has never been able to figure it out.

"Knock knock."

A knock on the door brought his thoughts back.

"Come in."

"Qingqi? What are you doing here? Seeing that it was Yin Qingqi, Qi Yuan's mood also improved slightly.

"What? The emperor took care of the government? I can't come? It seems that I am humble and unworthy of you, the prince of today. ”

Yin Qingqi was rarely in a good mood and made fun of Qi Yuan.

"Don't make fun of me."

Qi Yuan shook his head, he was already annoyed enough, and he was still being played by Yin Qingqi like this, and looked at her with a wry smile.

"What's the smell of you? Why is it so fragrant? ”

"You forgot?"

Yin Qingqi looked at him dissatisfied, "Last time the three of us went out of the palace to play, when I bought hairpins on the nineteenth, I picked them at the rouge shop on the side." ”

"Oh?"

Qi Yuan leaned over, pulled hard, and took Yin Qingqi into his arms. "I smell it."

"Don't make a fuss."

Yin Qingqi was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly dodged away, "If you want to smell it, I'll give you a can, so you can smell enough." ”

Qi Yuan had a rare smile on his face, staring at Yin Qingqi in a daze.

"What are you looking at?" Yin Qingqiyu touched Qi Yuan's forehead with a little hand, "By the way, what does it matter to go to the court today?" ”

Qi Yuan's mind resurfaced the expressionless face of the sixth elder brother.

He frowned and shook his head, "No, it's going well, but you see..."

As he spoke, Qi Yuan handed over the folds handed by the courtiers in the past few months to Yin Qingqi.

"Look at these ministers, none of them are decent, how do you tell me to use people?"

"Then I'll help you train another batch."

Qi Yuan knew that what Yin Qingqi was talking about was the people in the East Palace who had been stitched with crescents, and he fell into contemplation again.

You must know that the last time I was teasing right and wrong in front of the emperor, but the sixth elder brother, he also has the mark of a crescent moon on his body.
