Chapter 147: You've Never Liked Me
Forget it, everyone has run away, and it is useless to scold no matter how loud you are. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test "Yun Xiu patted the ash on her skirt and got into the carriage.
Chunliu pouted, hateful and helpless: "Grandma, I want the slave to say, what kind of battle is it good to fight, the homeless people made people panic before, so it stopped, and finally had a peaceful birthday in a few days, you see, it is chaotic again." “
"Say less." Yun Xiu glared at her, "There is no impermeable wall in the world, and if it is spread out, the little marquis will be the first to punish you." “
At the mention of Ling Xiao, Chunliu shrunk her neck, "The slave is upset for you, it's a big deal." “
"Don't talk nonsense when you go home." Yun Xiu warned, "Be careful that you can't eat and walk around." “
Chunliu nodded repeatedly.
At first, I felt that this wrestling was nothing, but when Yun Xiu returned home, I found that my wrist was swollen, and I didn't feel it if I didn't touch it, and it hurt when I touched it.
Ling Xiao came back and saw that she was medicating herself, and hurriedly asked what was going on.
Chunliu wanted to say that he was blocked out by Yun Xiu.
"When I came back from Qi Mansion, I was accidentally hit by someone," she smiled. "It's not a big deal."
Ling Xiao didn't follow: "Bumped? Who hit it? “
"Just a passerby." Yun Xiu stretched out his hand and deliberately coquettishly said, "Kneading, you are the best at bruising and spraining." “
"Next time you go out, bring a few more girls who know martial arts," Ling Xiao poured medicinal wine into his palm, rubbed his hands hot, covered his red and swollen wrists, and asked with concern, "Do you feel better?" “
Yun Xiu nodded: "It's hot, it doesn't hurt much." “
"The medicine that I rubbed before has worked." Ling Xiao said, "This bone-setting medicine wine is very easy to use. “
The two were talking, and Chunliu's voice came from outside the house, and she said, "Master Hou." Grandma, Qi Sanye is here. “
Qi Yuheng entered the Hou Mansion and entered his own door, as soon as the words fell, he opened the curtain and came in, and saw the two of them holding hands together, he sighed, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, it's not the right time to come, or I'll go out and wait for a while, you two continue." “
Yun Xiu: "??" They didn't do anything.
Ling Xiao snorted: "I don't know if I squeak when I come in." “
Qi Yuheng: "Who knows that if it's not dark, you two will be tired." “
Yun Xiu and Ling Xiao glanced at each other, and had a tacit understanding to think of a piece and blast people out.
Qi Yuheng observed his words and looks. Pointing at the two of them in the air: "Eighth sister, you have been taught badly by Ling Xiao." “
"Fuck off." Ling Xiao said, "Stay where it's cool." “
"That's what you said," Qi Yuheng said fearlessly, "If you don't listen to it, you won't say it if you want to hear it in the future." “
Ling Xiao: "Tsk, I have something to say." “
"I don't want to say it," Qi Yuheng took Qiao, "I came all the way from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and I didn't have any tea, and I had to be squeezed by the two of you." “
As soon as the words fell, Chunliu poured tea and came in, and said respectfully: "Third Master Qi, your tea is here." “
Ling Xiao looked at him speechlessly: "I can say it now." “
Qi Yuheng picked up the teacup and sniffed it, and raised his eyebrows: "Longjing before the rain?" Well, good, good tea, fragrant. “
Ling Xiao snorted impatiently, "Come on, right?" “
"You, you're boring," Qi Yuheng turned to a smile, "This Longjing must be the eighth sister's hometown tea, I have to taste two sips first." “
Ling Xiao wanted to say something, but was suppressed by Yun Xiu, "Second brother-in-law, you have to like it, I have an unopened bottle here, take it back and taste it." “
As he spoke, he asked Chunliu to bring the tea caniss.
"It's still the eighth sister who is sensible." Enough teasing, Qi Yuheng coughed lightly and got back to business, "Cui Yong is back." “
"Huh?" Ling Xiao almost threw the medicine bottle in his hand in the other party's face, "Get out!" “
Qi Yuheng: "Tsk, why are you like this, I tell the truth, and you don't believe it." “
"Do you know how far Yumen Pass is from Yanjing?" Ling Xiao snorted, "Cui Yong is back?" He can't fly back with his wings plugged! “
"Gotta get it," Qi Yuheng looked for a few of Cui Yong's facial features and said, "Square face, broad nose, chin and left side of the face have a mole, is it wrong?" “
It seemed that Ling Xiao was silent for a moment.
Qi Yuheng said again: "Cui Yong also plays polo, we have seen it before, he and you are not on the same team, even if you don't play for three or four years, people will never be mistaken." “
Ling Xiao was skeptical: "What did you see?" “
"No, it's not me," Qi Yuheng said something, "A buddy in the circle found that there was a man named Hanako on the side of the street who looked a little similar to him, and followed him all the way. “
Ling Xiao grabbed the white: "Entered the Cui Mansion?" “
Qi Yuheng nodded: "Yes, otherwise I'll make you happy with the cough?" “
"Do you see clearly?" Ling Xiao still didn't believe it, "The servants of the Cui family have distant relatives from their hometowns, and it is possible that they look alike." “
"According to you, that kid is wrong?" Qi Yuheng hissed, feeling strange, "Can't it, the servant steals steamed buns on the street?" Cui Shangshu was beaten, and it was not confiscated that the family property was confiscated, so he would not even be able to afford to eat. “
"Stealing steamed buns on the street?" Yun Xiu was slightly stunned, "Did it happen today?" “
"That's right," Qi Yuheng said, "I ran fast, but fortunately, that guy had good foot strength and almost lost it." “
Ling Xiao really couldn't listen to it, "How boring are you, running to follow and call Hanako?" “
Qi Yuheng shouted: "Do you think the Cui family only offended us?" If Cui Yong really comes back, he doesn't know which villain is behind his back. “
After saying that, he got up and waved his hand, "Come on, Yun Ying will wait for me to go back and watch the eldest and second take a bath, and I'll leave." “
Yun Xiu hurriedly called Chunliu to see off the guests, turned his head to Ling Xiao and said, "Second brother-in-law may not be mistaken. “
Ling Xiao: "What? Have you seen Cui Yong too? “
"No, I don't know Cui Yong," Yun Xiu stretched out the place where he was hit, "The man who hit me today was chased for stealing steamed buns, and he didn't see his appearance clearly at the time, but he must have a square face." “
"Cheng, I'll check with Qi Yuheng tomorrow," Ling Xiao's eyes sank, and he scolded, "Wang Ba Lamb, I was finally caught by Lao Tzu." “
After a pause, he explained to Yun Xiu again: "If Cui Yong can sneak back into the city, it means that the city gate is not strictly supervised, and the city is not safe, if you have to go out, you must wait for a few more martial arts subordinates, and the other two little cubs will stay in Changchun Garden if they are fine, don't run at both ends." “
Yun Xiu said he knew.
Next. Ling Xiao took advantage of the noon break to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to find Qi Yuheng and interrogate him carefully.
Qi Yuheng sat on the Taishi chair, drank the dragon well before the rain sent by Yun Xiu, and smacked his lips: "I said yesterday, you don't believe it, what Bacheng Yunxiu said, you will believe it, tsk, see the color and forget the righteousness." “
"Get out," Ling Xiao pulled an empty chair over, did it next to him, and asked closely, "You said that you watched Huazi enter Cui's Mansion, enter through the main gate or the corner gate?" “
Qi Yuheng glanced at him inexplicably: "Big brother, will you swagger through the front gate in disguise?" “
Ling Xiao sighed: "Is it the corner gate?" “
Qi Yuheng: "Isn't it nonsense?" “
Ling Xiao sighed twice: "When did you come back, did you hear about it?" “
"No," Qi Yuheng snorted coldly, "Who would want to get that grandson's sword to go sideways." “
Ling Xiao thought for a moment, "Cheng, let's not talk about him first, there is another matter." “
Qi Yuheng: "You say." “
Ling Xiao asked, "Did you find the person I wanted you to look for before?" To live to see a man and to die to see a corpse. “
"I'll tell you, I haven't replied to you about this, it's not that I haven't done it," Qi Yuheng sat up and pecked at the spout of the teapot, "As far as the traitor you said, I really found it, this grandson didn't want to come, he said to testify to you, and he would be killed by people in the black market if he didn't leave the city." “
Ling Xiao felt that this person was very critical: "Can't you forcibly bring it back?" “
Qi Yuheng said angrily: "This person is a loach and slipped away." “
"Slipped?" Ling Xiao was speechless, "You didn't bring a few more people?" “
"The five practitioners on the black market, plus me, have a total of six pairs of eyes, and they didn't look at him," Qi Yuheng said with annoyance, "He said to go to the toilet." He also sent people to follow, how to run, the guards didn't know anything. “
"But," he said, slumping back into his chair like a lazy bone, "this man still has a conscience and recognizes your affection." “
"He probably guessed that you would be looking for him, and hid a note in the house, with no content, just one word - Choi."
Ling Xiao subconsciously asked, "What do you mean?" Cui Shangshu is looking for someone to hunt down and kill Xie Yuma? “
"Eight or nine is not far from ten." Qi Yuheng said, "I still have the note, what do you want to do?" “
"What can I do," Ling Xiao had already thought about how to deal with it, "Go to the black market and issue a reward, and catch it alive is nothing more than spending a little more money." “
"Cheng, I'll look for someone at night, so don't show your face," Qi Yuheng thought about him, "The Qin family is now on the cusp, how many pairs of eyes are staring at us." “
Ling Xiao said yes.
There must be brave men under the heavy money, and once the reward order is issued, the black market news in various regions is shared, and it is easy to think of people.
From searching for people to arresting people, it is just a day and a night.
Qi Yuheng told Ling Xiao the news and found it interesting: "This person knows that he can't run away." simply tie your hands and catch it, and those who know the times are handsome. “
Ling Xiao: "Don't be poor, what about people?" “
"Guan Zhuangzi," Qi Yuheng chuckled, "Don't worry, not a single hair will be missing." “
After finishing the work, Ling Xiao didn't stay and went to the Ministry of Engineering.
Xie Zongren heard that someone was looking for him, put down the file materials in his hand, got up and went out, and was stunned when he saw the comer.
Ling Xiao was anti-guest, and pointed to the empty chair opposite, "Sit, I have something to say." “
Xie Zongren didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he looked at him vigilantly: "There's no need to sit, Master Hou has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and he has something to say." “
Ling Xiao didn't talk nonsense: "Find the mastermind behind the pursuit, but you can't move him." “
Xie Zongren asked who it was?
Ling Xiao glanced at him with a half-smile, dipped his index finger in tea, wrote a word on the table, and quickly wiped it off.
However, Xie Zongren had already guessed based on his strokes, "It's about the same as I guessed, but I thought it was the Gu family." “
Ling Xiao instigated him: "Master Ma doesn't want to repay the shame of the past? “
My life is almost gone, and I have been injured all over my body for two months, is it possible not to hate.
"Since Master Hou has come to find the lower official, he should think of a countermeasure." Xie Zongren said unhurriedly, "You might as well say it first." “
Cooperation always requires that sincerity, Ling Xiao smiled: "I found a witness and hid it." “
Xie Zongren thought he was talking nonsense, and was about to refute it, when he suddenly thought of the Pingyang Inn letting go of the little guy, and his tightly locked brows relaxed, "How does Master Hou need to cooperate with the lower officials?" “
"Tomorrow I'll go to the Imperial Study." Ling Xiao left after speaking.
Xie Zongren sat still and didn't move, he thought for a moment, considering what the face saint said.
??
The next day, in the Imperial Study.
Wang Fu saw that Emperor Jingwen's face was acceptable, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Marquis Zhongyi is waiting outside. “
Emperor Jingwen hadn't seen Ling Xiao since the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet, and raised his eyes slightly: "Xuan." “
Wang Fu was very polite to Ling Xiao, and when he led the way, he smiled and said: "Master Hou, the emperor has Cheng Zi and I haven't seen you, and I was talking about it before." “
Ling Xiao was not surprised by the palace people's high and low steps, and said perfunctorily: "Thank you to the emperor for his concern." “
Wang Fu opened the curtain for him, and he got into it and greeted him with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.
Emperor Jingwen was polite to him, and asked Wang Fu to move a stool to sit on, with a flat expression mixed with a little smile: "You don't have to be polite, I have been having a headache about the battle situation in Yumen Pass recently." “
Since the emperor provoked the topic, Ling Xiao speculated on the holy will, and said in passing: "Your Majesty, when it comes to Yumen Pass, Weichen is here for this matter. “
Emperor Jingwen: "Oh? Tell me about it. “
Ling Xiao said bluntly: "Wechen found someone suspected of being Cui Yong in the city, and Weichen is not the only one who knows about this, someone saw him pretending to be Huazi to enter and exit from the corner gate of Cui's mansion." “
There is no need to "doubt", it is Cui Yong himself.
Emperor Jingwen is not a faint king, on the contrary, he is sensitive and suspicious by nature, and he has long suspected that Cui Yong's disappearance is to abandon the city and escape.
Deserters on the battlefield will be dealt with by military law and beheaded on the spot.
And Cui Yong guarded himself and escaped, and dared to return to Beijing, which caught the young emperor by surprise.
What a guts!
"Are you sure?" The anger in his heart was surging, and his face was still unfazed, Emperor Jing Wen only asked, "Slandering a heavy minister is a serious crime, can the Marquis of Zhongyi see it clearly?" “
Ling Xiao knew that most of the emperor was frightened, so he was so angry that he hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't dare to say anything. “
After a pause, he said, "In addition, Weichen has something to tell." “
Emperor Jingwen: "Yes." “
Ling Xiao: "Regarding the assassination in Yangguan, Weichen found a witness, just outside the palace, Weichen was worried that someone was wrongdoing, so he specially transferred the green-headed knife to escort him, which was related to the safety of the horse master, and he didn't dare to be careless." “
Emperor Jingwen knew in his heart, "I heard that not only Xie Yuma, but also Marquis Zhongyi was also involved, if it weren't for the emergency of Yumen Pass, I should have investigated it carefully." “
As he spoke, he gave Wang Fu a look.
Wang Fu immediately understood: "The slave will summon the witness to the audience." “
"Grandpa Wang," Ling Xiao suddenly stopped him, and then turned his head to Emperor Jingwen bluntly, "Your Majesty, Xie Yuma fled all the way, and he was embarrassed, it is better to hand over the person to him, let him personally interrogate, and return him justice." “
Emperor Jingwen groaned slightly, and said to Wang Fu: "Put the witnesses in prison, and then tell Xie Juma to give me a detailed trial." “
Wang Fu belched and took the order.
Turning his head, Emperor Jing Wen asked Ling Xiao: "The witness is in hand, you can ask one or two." “
Saying that there was no obvious suspicion of bullying the king, Ling Xiao said euphemistically: "Weichen caught this person and brought it to Beijing/City, I didn't have time to ask in detail, this person is cunning, and he insisted that the mastermind behind the scenes was surnamed Cui, Weichen was panicked, and asked the emperor to decide." “
didn't bite the Cui family to death, and pointed the finger of suspicion at them.
Emperor Jingwen pretended to be confused: "That's it, wait for the news of tomorrow's horse." “
As for Xie Zongren, he responded to all changes with the same, Wang Fu personally passed the message, and he followed him.
But after a night's work, a detailed written testimony was placed on the imperial case in the imperial study, and the emperor went down to the early court, and he could see it when he returned.
Emperor Jingwen's index finger poked lightly on the paper, and his eyes glanced out of the glass window, where the sunlight was just right, indicating that this year was a warm winter.
Wang Fu followed the emperor's gaze and looked over, but he didn't see the clue, and his heart became more and more uneasy, guessing whether the emperor was going to use Cui Shangshu as a pawn to punish him.
However, after a long time, Emperor Jing Wen said lightly: "Wang Fu, do you say that I tolerate Cui Shangshu too much?" “
Wang Fu received a lot of silver from the Cui family, worried that he would be implicated, and said with a sneer: "Your Majesty, you are kind and generous, and you love the people of Daizi. “
Emperor Jingwen likes to listen to good words, and the little anger in his heart slowly calmed down, and he turned his head and asked, "What else did Xie Ju say today?" “
Wang Fu shook his head: "In addition to asking the people from the Criminal Department to hand over the testimony, the master of the horse has not even stepped into the palace gate half a step. Went straight back to the Ministry of Works. “
Emperor Jingwen sighed, he didn't speak, he looked like he was thinking about something, and said for a while: "Is there any movement on Concubine Min's side recently?" “
Wang Fu didn't dare to hide it: "As far as the future is concerned, Master Ma went to see Concubine Min twice, and it seemed that he went to his mother-in-law to complain because he was unhappy with the tenth princess." “
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Emperor Jing Wen casually picked up a book and smashed it over, "Do you believe this kind of nonsense?" “
Wang Fu was so frightened that he knelt down and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the slave has checked with the eyeliner, Xie Juma did have a discord with the tenth princess, and it has been a long time, as for the concubine Niangniang. I was not satisfied with this marriage, if it wasn't for the queen mother to call the shots, I was afraid that she would beat the mandarin ducks early, and the slaves were just slaves, even if they had a hundred guts, they would not dare to meddle in the emperor's family affairs. “
Slaves have the rules of slaves, Emperor Jingwen was quite satisfied with his answer, his face was slightly pale, "Who else has Xie Juma seen besides Concubine Min?" “
Wang Fu shook his head very affirmatively: "If you go back to the emperor, the slave has never heard any news about the master of the horse." “
Why Xie Zongren's whereabouts to the Rui Wangfu were not exposed, it was not that the eyeliner was not found, but that he was killed by the Rui Wang, and the people in the palace successfully disrupted the situation.
Everything is like an undercurrent whirlpool under the surface of the water, silently thrilling.
Xie Zongren also passed the day with trepidation. The emperor did not announce his entry into the palace, proving that he was not exposed, he is still the horse master who has no background backer and relies on male sex to win the princess's favor.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that three days later, Rui Wangfu sent an invitation to invite him to enjoy calligraphy and painting.
Xie Zongren had a bad premonition, and he couldn't shirk it, so he stubbornly followed the time requirements and came to visit.
King Rui feeds the fish in the back garden, and the pond is crowded with fat carp with red, white and black flowers, competing to float on the surface of the water, desperately trying to grab food.
Xie Zongren lowered his hands and stood aside, waiting for the superior to speak.
However, King Rui didn't say anything after feeding the bait in his hand.
The two were silent for a long time, but King Rui spoke first: "Xie Yuma has nothing to tell this king?" “
Xie Zongren asked rhetorically: "What does King Rui want to hear?" “
"Thank you," Rui Wang looked at him deeply, "you are more interesting than I thought. “
Xie Zongren bowed his hand: "The lower officials don't understand what the prince means. “
"You want to investigate the mastermind behind the pursuit of you, and this king has found out." King Rui said to himself, "But you also knew the truth three days ago, how do you feel?" “
Xie Zongren smiled: "As the prince said, the mastermind behind the scenes is a big man, and the lower officials can't afford to mess with it, and they can't be provoked." “
Rui Wang sighed: "It's good that you know." He also said, "But the king has also found out some secrets that are not known to the horse." “
As he spoke, he twitched the corners of his mouth, as if he had no intention of asking, "What is your relationship with the wife of the Marquis of Zhongyi?" “
Xie Zongren heard the other party mention Yun Xiu, his heart sank suddenly, and he said calmly: "Xia Guan was helped by Yun Yushi, and it has nothing to do with the Yun family's daughters. “
"Unrelated?" King Rui laughed, "What do you mean, Mrs. Yun has an indifferent relationship with you?" Why did she go to Yangguan with Zhongyi Hou to rescue you? “
"No," he gave a thumbs up, remembering something, and smiled like a fox, "It should be the Hexi Corridor, and then you lived in Chang'an City for a while." “
Xie Zongren had been injured in Chang'an, and Ling Xiao was worried that the pursuers would do it again, and he had alarmed the local government, and this kind of thing could be found out with a little attention.
"Why don't you speak?" Ruiwang's smile slowly faded. The tone was three points angry, "The tenth princess is pure by nature, are you embarrassed to deceive her?" “
"Lord Wang, the lower official did not deceive His Royal Highness," Xie Zongren replied without humility or arrogance, "Yangguan is in danger, and at a critical juncture, the lower official can only ask for help from someone who believes." “
"So," King Rui narrowed, "you don't believe in the Tenth Princess?" “
Xie Zongren smiled bitterly: "Lord Wang, you know the temper of the tenth princess, she knows that the lower officials are not good, I am afraid that it is only unexpectedly bad." Xia Guan didn't want His Royal Highness to worry. “
"I hope that's what you're saying." King Rui looked at him for a while, his tone returned to normal, and deliberately threw out a very tempting condition, "Xie Yuma, you are a smart person, if you help this king, after the matter is completed, this king can promise you a request, as long as this king can do it." “
Xie Zongren almost blurted out, he wanted Yun Xiu, but the words were swallowed hard in his mouth, not that he regretted it, but that the greater the reward, the greater the risk, he didn't know what King Rui was planning, but it must be an extremely dangerous thing.
He can be in danger, but Yun Xiu can't.
"Thank you for your kindness." Xie Zongren bowed his hand and took his leave, "The lower officials still have official business, so it is inconvenient to bother." “
"Presumptuous!" The guards drew their swords to stop them, but they were stopped by King Rui.
"Let him go." He said, "Sooner or later, he will ask the king." “
***
Xie Zongren returned to the princess's mansion, and the tenth princess learned a hand of duck soup from Yun Xiu, with winter bamboo shoots and bamboo sunflower as ingredients, salty and fresh with a hint of sweetness, the soup is clear and oil-free, and the color and fragrance are not much different from Yangzhou.
"Is it good?" The tenth princess was looking forward to his answer, "I have tasted it, and it is too different from the taste of the Hou Mansion. “
Xie Zongren didn't know what the other party's intentions were, or if he wanted to play a play, he recalled the attitude of King Rui and Concubine Min, and felt that the paper wrapped the fire, he couldn't help but like Yun Xiu, this feeling was like an invisible thunderbolt, and he didn't know when it would explode.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally said the words that had been held in his heart for a long time, "Your Royal Highness, our personalities are not compatible, let's get along, the grace of saving lives cannot be repaid, if Your Royal Highness encounters any difficulties, I will definitely help you." “
"It's so decent, how can you say that you are leaving?" The tenth princess was stunned, quickly reacted, and reluctantly smiled, "The soup is not delicious, it's a big deal to change the cook." “
"Your Royal Highness," Xie Zongren looked at her seriously, "I didn't laugh at you, Your Royal Highness is kind, you shouldn't be in the same league with people like you, if you leave me, the concubine will find a good match for you." “
"How do you know you're not a good match?" The tenth princess put down her chopsticks, her eyes were full of water, and she suddenly whispered, "Xie Zongren, have you always had a girl in your heart, and that girl is not me." “
Xie Zongren did not speak.
The tenth princess's voice suddenly became sharper: "You never liked me, did you?!" “
