Tianxing's words were so sincere and sincere that even Qin Zhi couldn't tell whether she was true or false, but it was rare for her to have this heart.

But Qin Zhi wouldn't let her help.

Even if Bo Jiang personally brought her here, Qin Zhi would not set this precedent.

Not to mention that this incident was the assassination of the princess, it was an ordinary murder case, and it was impossible for unrelated people to interfere.

Qin is a country with a strict legal system, and it is strictly disciplined, but everything that violates the law is handled by the officers and soldiers, the army and the royal family, so he said lightly, "Thank you for the kindness of the boss of Tianxing, but this matter is extraordinary, the death of the princess is not child's play, this palace does not want to borrow anyone's hands, and this matter has nothing to do with you, it is not good to be involved, and I hope that the boss of Tianxing understands." ”

Tianxing lowered his eyebrows and arched his hand, "It's me who said too much." ”

Bo Jiang glanced at her and asked Qin Zhi, "After searching for a day, did you find the executioner?" ”

Qin Zhi's face was ugly, as long as he thought that someone was free to enter and leave his prince's mansion and kill his sister, he couldn't suppress his anger, but he also knew that this executioner would probably not be able to find out, Yan Chi dared to send someone, he was not afraid of him to investigate, that person dared to commit murder, and he also had something to rely on.

The murder at night, only to be discovered in the morning, most likely, that person had already left by night.

Qin Zhi said with a cold face, "No." ”

Bo Jiang slapped the table, "Who the hell is it!" ”

Qin Zhi said, "I don't know, but this palace guesses that it must be from Yan Guo." ”

"Yan Guo?" Bo Jiang frowned and was stunned, he didn't know that something had happened to Yan Guangning, the princess of Yan Kingdom, and he didn't know that Hua Diao, the leader of the Golden Spy Network stationed in Yan Kingdom, was dead, or died at the hands of Yan Guangning, and this incident was calculated by the good prince in front of him, he only knew that Yan Guo dared to send someone to assassinate the princess, which was to provoke the rhythm of war, he said in a calm voice, "Prince, the last general feels that it is time to prepare for war." ”

Tianxing lowered his head, sideways picked up the teacup from the square table in his hand, and sipped it lightly.

She's just a restaurant owner, she doesn't understand anything, and she doesn't interject.

The two men in front of her are far above her, and she really has no ability to intervene in their words.

Tianxing quietly drank tea and listened.

Bo Jiang proposed to prepare for war, but Qin Zhi didn't know.

But fighting a war is not child's play, and if you don't have the certainty of victory, how can you send troops?

Qin Zhi said in a deep voice, "This needs to be discussed with the emperor. ”

Bo Jiang nodded, "Tomorrow morning, I will make a proposal to the emperor." After speaking, he stood up, "It's not early, the prince should also rest, and the general will take his leave." ”

Qin Zhi asked in a low voice, "The general came this time to ask about the assassins?" ”

Bo Jiang said, "Well, the princess was killed, as a courtier, she should contribute, but since the prince said that there is no need for the last general to intervene, then the last general will not interfere, I still have something to do with Tianxing, so I will leave first." ”

After he finished speaking, he went to take Tianxing's hand.

Tianxing put down the teacup, stood up, and blessed Qin Zhi.

Bo Jiang took her by the hand and turned around.

Qin Zhi looked at the hands they were holding together, and the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile, if it was in normal times, he would definitely make fun of Bo Jiang for a word or two, is it a good thing is coming, but at this time he is really not in the mood.

After watching them walk out of the temple gate, he called Ruan Jiang and asked him what Zhao Huaiyan was doing.

Nguyen Jiang said he was playing the piano.

Qin Zhi frowned, playing the piano again?

He looked up at the sky, it was already two o'clock, it was very late, why was he still playing the piano?

Qin Zhi pursed his lips, "Go with the palace to have a look." ”

Ruan Jiang responded, "Yes." ”

The two of them walked one after the other towards the backyard of the main hall.

When he reached the gate of the courtyard, he stopped again.

Ruan Jiang looked at him puzzled.

Qin Zhi looked at the door and said lightly, "That's it." He flicked his sleeves and walked towards the main chamber.

Entered the dormitory, walked in for a while, entered the study, and Ruan Jiang followed.

After closing the door of the study, Qin Zhi sat down on the sandalwood chair behind the bookcase.

As soon as he sat down, a black shadow flashed out and knelt on the ground: "Prince." ”

Qin Zhi asked in a deep voice, "Haven't found it yet?" ”

The black shadow said: "No, everything is normal in the city, nearly half of the houses have been searched from house to house, but no suspicious people have been found, it is likely that the person has already left the city." ”

Qin Zhi pursed his thin lips, his lips were cold and straight, he squeezed his hands, and sneered: "Search the city for another three days, if you can't find it, just walk around the city to spread rumors, saying that this matter was done by Yan Guo." ”

The man was stunned and looked up.

As soon as he raised his head, he could see his face clearly under the illumination of the light, and it turned out to be Guangde.

Guangde asked: "Is the prince trying to create public opinion?" ”

Qin Zhi squinted: "Just now General Bo came to the palace to see the palace and suggested preparing for war, the palace also felt that it should be prepared, the death of the princess is the best fuse, once the public opinion in the city spreads, the people will hate Yan Guo like bones, even if there is no exact evidence for this matter, we have not caught the murderer, but as soon as public opinion spreads, the people will support the Yan State without hesitation." ”

"In addition, as soon as Shuang'er died, the marriage between Qin and Chu could not be maintained, taking advantage of this wind, Shuang'er had just mourned, and Chu had not yet stayed away, and forced Emperor Chu to send troops to help him on the grounds of protecting his wife and Chu Ye's dereliction of duty, he had nothing to say."

"In this way, we can also provide a favorable opportunity for Bu Taifu, kill Chu Chaohuan, we don't have to wait until after the recruitment day, Chu State sent troops in front, Chu Chaohuan died in the back, anyone would think that this matter is related to Yan State, then, Yan Chu Alliance, it is completely difficult to cultivate."

"And after Chu Chaohuan dies in Yan State, in order to avenge his daughter, Emperor Chu will spare no effort to attack Yan State, and when the time comes, I am not afraid that he will be false and perfunctory to my Qin State."

Guangde listened to the amazement and gave a thumbs up: "The prince is smart!" ”

Ruan Jiang also admired: "This plan is good." However, he frowned again: "But against the Yan State, my Qin State is not very sure of the nine stability." ”

Qin Zhi said: "Go and invite the prince of Chu." ”

Ruan Jiang was stunned for a moment, but he quickly answered, went out of the study, and went to invite Prince Chu.

Qin Zhi asked Guangde: "Where is Chu Chaohuan now?" ”

Guangde said: "Beiyan, it should be two days later, and I will return with Yan Chi." ”

Qin Zhi muttered: "Beiyan ......"

He sneered: "Originally, it was Zhao Huaiyan who went to Beiyan with Yan Chi, but Zhao Huaiyan heard that Huadiao and Yan Guangning had an accident, so he immediately came to Qin State. ”

For Chu Chaohuan, he didn't care much.

The woman who likes Yan Chi has nothing to do with him.

If it weren't for the fact that her life and death would be related to the fate of the Three Kingdoms, he wouldn't let people inquire about her.

Qin Zhi nodded, indicating that he understood, and said: "Send a letter to Taifu, explain our plan to him, with this palace's understanding of Chu Chaohuan, she will definitely go to Yan Country with Yan Chi first this time, but I don't know how long she can stay, let him see the right time to start." ”

"Yes!"

After Guangde left, Qin Zhi sat for a while, and then took out a very small flute from his waist pocket, the body of the flute was only as long as a middle finger, and the thickness was about the same as the middle finger of a middle-aged man, with three holes in the middle, and the color of the log.

Qin Zhi took out the flute and put it to his mouth to blow.

The flute looks small, there are only three sound holes, and the whole workmanship looks rough and inferior, but the timbre is excellent.

As soon as the flute sound came out, it was as if I heard the sound of running water from the quiet mountain spring, sliding gently through the vast dark night, this sound was gentle and slow, without any ups and downs, and not out of tune, but it sounded extremely comfortable, and felt that it had the power to soothe all irritability.

But in fact, to ordinary people, this flute sound is harmless, but for those who have fallen into the puppet, this flute sound is a command.

Yan Guangning, who was lying on the bed and was controlled by Tianxing with a silver needle, was still disturbed by this order, even if he was in a deep sleep of his physical functions.

She was asleep at the moment, unable to receive all information from the outside world, but the sound of the flute seemed to have life, disturbing her brain, making her frown uncontrollably even in her sleep, and she strongly wanted to break free from this sleepiness and go to the Piper's side.

But she has no martial arts, and she didn't fall asleep by herself, she was sealed by a silver needle, and she wanted to struggle open, but it was completely impossible.

Qin Zhi blew for a long time, and when he saw that no one was coming, he took the flute away from his lips and sneered to himself: "Bonded? ”

The institution that the Qin State can hide a person so silently is only the golden spy network of the Zhao State stationed in the Qin State.

So, are these spies active again?

Someone who will be too ethereal and spirited......

Qin Zhi squinted, and was about to call someone to come in and let him go to see if Zhao Huaiyan had rested, but before the words could be spoken, Ruan Jiang, who had gone and returned, brought Chu Ye over, and Qin Zhi put down the matter first and received Chu Ye.

Qin Shuang died tragically, and the body was transported to the palace by Emperor Qin, as Qin Shuang's husband, Chu Ye should accompany him in the palace, but Emperor Qin did not let him stay in the palace.

Although Emperor Qin knew that the person who killed his precious daughter was not Chu Ye, he would still be angry.

He didn't want to see this Prince Chu, and he didn't want to see it at all, so Chu Ye stayed in the Prince's Mansion.

The executioner has not been caught, and Emperor Qin did not immediately mourn Qin Shuang, and Qin Shuang did not mourn for a day, and Chu Ye could not leave Qin for a day.

After Chu Ye came, Qin Zhi motioned for him to sit and asked Ruan Jiang to serve tea.

Chu Ye was a little puzzled, what did Qin Zhi call him to do so late, and he also asked people to serve tea, was this planning to talk to him at night?

What to talk about?

What can he talk to him about?

Chu Ye didn't have a score in his heart, so he could only ask first: "Big brother, is there something to call Ye over so late?" ”

Qin Zhi stood up from behind the case, came to a chair next to him and sat down, Ruan Jiang also poured him a cup of tea, he looked at the tea, didn't drink it, just looked sideways at Chu Ye: "The murderer was not caught, my imperial sister is dead, can my brother-in-law sleep at night?" ”

Chu Ye's heart was inexplicable, and he raised his eyes in a daze, looking at him: "I can't sleep." ”

Qin Zhi's voice was filled with sadness and faint cold anger: "I can't sleep either, so I called Brother-in-law Ye to come and talk, today's search Guangde has come to report to me, and nothing has been found, I just thought about it alone for a long time, and I feel that this killer is likely to be sent by Yan Guo." ”

Chu Ye was slightly surprised: "Yan Guo? ”

Qin Zhi said: "Yes." ”

Chu Ye frowned and said, "But there is no evidence......

Qin Zhi sneered: "You and I are both princes, of course we pay attention to evidence when we speak and do things, but sometimes, intuition and analysis cannot be ignored. ”

He analyzed word by word: "Qin Shuang married you, Chu State and Qin State married, this originally broke the Chu State has always only made good friends with Yan State, Yan State did not make any response to this matter, it seems that it is not angry, but in fact it is not, it is difficult to say." ”

"In Yan Kingdom before, Shuang'er offended Emperor Zhao."

"Also because the golden spy network stationed in Yan Country was cut off by me, Shuang'er also lost a finger because of this, and that finger was broken in Yan Kingdom, or the order of the attic master Lou Jiang in the Loujing Pavilion."

"Yan Chi didn't move Qin Shuang before, because Qin Shuang didn't marry into the Chu State, and now, just after marrying, she encountered an accident, although it was something that happened in my prince's mansion, but if you really think about it, it is probably caused by marriage, besides, you are Shuang'er's husband, Shuang'er died tragically, you are the husband, shouldn't you do something?"

Chu Ye finally understood what Qin Zhi was calling him for, and he asked in a low voice, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Qin Zhi did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Have you told Emperor Chu the news of Shuang'er's tragic death?" ”

Chu Ye said: "Not yet." ”

Qin Zhi said: "Then write a letter to tell me, the crown princess died tragically, how can he, as his father, not know." ”

Chu Ye slowly stood up: "Then I'll go back and write." ”

Qin Zhi tugged at his sleeve robe, "You don't have to run back, just write here with me." He said lightly, "When you report your funeral, you will also take revenge." ”

Chu Ye's eyes trembled fiercely, and fell on Qin Zhi: "Ye didn't understand. ”

Qin Zhi said lukewarmly: "Yan Guo has been bullied, we can't swallow our anger, can we?" ”

Chu Ye was stunned and blurted out: "Big brother wants to start a war with Yan Guo?" ”

"yes." Qin Zhi smiled extremely coldly, "Just use blood to pay tribute to Shuang'er." ”

Chu Ye gasped: "However, war is not child's play. ”

Qin Zhi said: "It's really not child's play, so I asked you to write a letter to your father, ask your father to prepare for war, fight back and forth with the Qin State, and take the Yan Kingdom first while the Northern Yan has not yet become completely strong and prosperous." ”

Seeing that his brows furrowed, Qin Zhi said again: "Don't worry, Emperor Zhao is now in the Prince's Mansion, if there is really a war, Zhao and Yan will be scrupulous." ”

Chu Ye knew that it was useless for him to say anything, Qin Zhi called him, not to discuss with him, but to ask him to write to his father.

Therefore, whether he wants to write this letter or not, he has to write it.

Qin Zhi asked Ruan Jiang to prepare paper and ink.

Ready, Chu Ye moved, walked to the desk, and wrote a letter.

After the letter was written, Ruan Jiang immediately took it out and asked the post envoy to quickly whip his horse and send it to the state of Chu and hand it over to the emperor of Chu in person.

Emperor Chu got the letter the next night, and after reading the letter, his forehead twitched violently.

He pinched the letter, pursed his thin lips, and walked out of the imperial study in silence, and after a while, he sent someone to find Chu Chaohuan.

Chu Chaohuan is still in Beiyan.

Yan Chi and his entourage arrived three days before the Lantern Festival, two days before the Lantern Festival, Duan Dongli and Han Yuyou, Zhuo Ling and Han Xishan, Nan Ziyan and Han Bei, these three couples worshiped the church and became relatives.

Yan Chi came to Beiyan this time, firstly, to accompany the courtiers for the New Year, and secondly, to inspect the situation in Beiyan, so even though today is the Lantern Festival, he still went out.

It's just that before he got out of the door, he was blocked by many people.

The three newlywed couples came to pay homage to him, Emperor Han and Emperor Chen also came to him to pay respects, as well as Pei Lianfu, Nanqiu Han, Zhu Xuanguang, etc., there were no extra female dependents.

Yan Chi raised his head and glanced at the large army, and smiled helplessly: "I originally wanted to go out as soon as possible to see how the Lantern Festival in Beiyan is celebrated, but you came early." ”

Emperor Chen said, "If you want to see it, I'll accompany you to see it in a while, but I haven't seen it either." He glanced at the three couples next to him, "The newcomers have come to greet you, you can't help but drink this cup of tea." ”

Yan Chi raised his eyebrows and said very strangely, "This tea has to be honored by parents, right?" ”

Emperor Han smiled and said, "I have paid respect, but Emperor Yan is their big matchmaker, and this glass of wine must be drunk." ”

Yan Chi's forehead twitched, matchmaker?

If Zhao Huaiyan heard this word, he wouldn't laugh?

Thinking of Zhao Huaiyan, Yan couldn't help but look up at the sky, and didn't know how she was now.

And Qinghai, which should be back soon.

Yan Chi turned around with his backhand, "Come in." ”

A group of Hula walked in.

Yuan Xing frowned, but he was really welcome.

The imperial palace where Yan Chi lived was very large, and it was rebuilt in the original palace of Qi State, which was comparable to the scale of the palace, but because it was a palace, there were fewer people.

The palace is large, and the main palace of the emperor where Yan Chi lives is also large.

The group walked in without feeling crowded at all.

When I came in, no one found a chair to sit on, so I just stood there.

Yan Chi asked Yuan Xing to prepare wine.

Duan Dongli first pulled Han Yuyou to toast Yan Chi, then Nan Ziyan and Han Bei, and then Zhuo Ling and Han Xishan, Yan Chi's eyes swept over their faces one by one when he accepted the three couples to eat.

He has already had a relationship with Zhao Huaiyan, so he naturally knows what the state of a woman is after a night of favoring, and he also knows what kind of charm a man after a night of joy is.

Probably except for Zhuo Ling, Duan Dongli and Nan Ziyan are married to the two princesses.

After Yan Chi finished drinking, the three courtiers were very happy.

Emperor Han was also very happy, and since then, his daughters have been secured.

Emperor Han was a little red-eyed again, he was really happy.

Emperor Chen said, "You are blessed, if I also have three princess daughters, how can you have anything to do with Korea, these three ministers, all let my daughter take care of them." ”

Emperor Han couldn't stop laughing because of his words, "It's a pity that you don't, this is fate, and you can't force it." ”

Emperor Chen glared.

Pei Lianfu coughed lowly, and arched his hand at Emperor Chen, "The emperor is still young, and there are many concubines in the harem, if those concubines don't like it, you can set up another draft, recruit beautiful girls, and spread out the branches, in a few years, the royal family of my Chen Kingdom will also be full, and when the time comes, Emperor Yan's child is born, and we can get married." ”

“……”

Everyone was silent, and they all moved their eyes to Pei Lianfu.

This prime minister of Chen Guo is really shocking and endless.

Yan Chi laughed lowly, raised his hand and patted Pei Lianfu's shoulder, "Then Pei Xiangke has to let your emperor work hard, there will be a lot of children between this emperor and Yan'er, and I don't mind ordering a few more dolls." ”

There was a low laugh around.

Zhou Xiaochan didn't come, otherwise she would definitely beat Zhao Yanchi.

Yan Le didn't come either, otherwise, he would have scolded her for being ashamed of her seventh brother.

Chu Chaohuan didn't come either, otherwise, she was very sour when she heard it.

A few women who came with them were a little uncomfortable because they had just entered Beiyan, so they got up late.

By the time they got up, those people had already retreated from Yan Chi's palace.

Yan Chi still couldn't succeed in getting outside, because Qinghai was back.

When Yan Chi saw Qinghai, he immediately took a step and came to him, seeing that he was carrying a square box in his hand, he asked in a deep voice, "What is it?" ”

Qinghai said, "Qin Shuang's head." ”

Yan Chi raised his eyebrows, "Has anyone found out?" ”

Qinghai said, "No. ”

Yan Chi said, "Well done." ”

Qinghai put the box on the ground and asked Yan Chi, "What to do with this head?" ”

Yan Chi groaned, "Go and store it with ice and snow first, don't let people find out, and when Yan'er comes back, dispose of it for her." ”

Qinghai responded, "Okay." Thinking of something, he said again, "Emperor Zhao went to Qin at this time, there may be some trouble, after I beheaded Qin Shuang's head that night, I went out of the city that night, but I didn't leave immediately, but stayed overnight, and the next day I sneaked into the city quietly and inquired about the news, only then did I know that Emperor Zhao was under house arrest in Prince Qin's mansion." ”

Yan Chi frowned, "House arrest? ”

Qinghai said, "Yes, this is not dangerous, the subordinates are worried, Qin Shuang's death, Qin State will inevitably use it as a fuss, and want to start a war against Yan State, if Qin Zhi uses Emperor Zhao as a threat, what will the emperor do?" ”

Yan Chi squinted, slanted his gaze at the palace gate in the distance, his voice was low and dangerous, "Qin Zhi doesn't dare, if he really dares, I will raze all the land in his West Qin!" He shouted, "Yuanxing." ”

Yuan Xing immediately said, "Your Majesty." ”

Yan Chi said, "It is rumored that Nanqiu Han and Pei Lianfu came over, and called Emperor Han and Emperor Chen over together. ”

"Yes."

Yuanxing went down to pass on.

Yan Chi asked Qinghai to find a place to place Qin Shuang's head first, and he went back to the study and wrote a letter.

The letter was addressed to Zhao Xian.

After writing, Yan Chi called the messenger to come in, and asked him to quickly take the letter to Zhao State, and personally deliver the letter to Zhao Xian.

And before the letter reached the hands of Zhao State, the people sent by Emperor Chu from Chu State found Chu Chaohuan and conveyed Emperor Chu's order to return to China quickly.

Chu Chaohuan asked them if something had happened to the state of Chu, and one of them replied that it was not the state of Chu that had an accident, but Qin Shuang, who had been killed.

They didn't know much, so they only asked Chu Chaohuan to return to China as soon as possible.

Although Chu Chaohuan didn't want to go back, she sat there and thought about it carefully, and felt that at this time, Emperor Chu called her back, which must have a deep meaning, she asked them to wait for her in the courtyard first, and she went to Yanchi to say goodbye.

Yan Chi heard her say that she wanted to go back, raised her eyebrows slightly, did not persuade her to stay, and did not ask the reason, but said, "Do you need me to send someone to send you?" ”

Chu Chaohuan said, "No, my father sent someone to pick me up." ”

Yan Chi asked with great insight, "Has something big happened in the Chu State?" ”

Chu Chaohuan said, "No, it's Qin Shuang who died, the crown princess of Chu is gone, Chu Ye hasn't returned yet, my father probably feels uncomfortable, so let me go back to accompany him." ”

When Yan Chi heard that Qin Shuang was dead, he didn't react at all, he was not surprised, and he didn't have sympathy.

Chu Chaohuan narrowed his eyes, "You are not surprised by Qin Shuang's death. ”

Yan Chi said, "I heard this news one step ahead of you, so there's nothing to be surprised about." ”

Chu Chaohuan thought of Zhao Huaiyan, who suddenly left for the Qin State, something passed in his mind, and then looked at Yan Chi's face, as handsome as before, since he became the emperor, that handsomeness was mixed with extremely jealous majesty, at this moment, this face is calm and waveless, and it is deep and unpredictable.

Why did Zhao Huaiyan suddenly leave and go to the Qin State?

And it was such a coincidence, Zhao Huaiyan went to the Qin State, and Qin Shuang died.

With Yan Chi's liking for Zhao Huaiyan, is he willing to let Zhao Huaiyan leave?

Well, there are reasons to have to leave.

What is the reason?

Kill Qin Shuang?

Chu Chaohuan was suddenly shocked, if Qin Shuangzhen was killed by Yan Chi and Zhao Huaiyan, then did the two of them plan to jointly wage war against the Qin State?

Then this time her father summoned her back, I'm afraid it wasn't as simple as she thought.

Chu Chaohuan's face was frosty, and he looked at Yan Chi coldly for a long time, turned around, and left.

Yan Chi raised his eyes, his eyes were as deep as the sea, his slender fingertips lightly tapped the tabletop, and after a moment, he shouted: "Come on, pass on Zhu Xuanguang." ”
