"Old lady, I've arrived home, do you want to pass the sedan chair?"

When such a sound came from outside the carriage, the old lady Yue, who had already dozed off with her hands inside, opened her eyes tiredly. He doesn't like the sedan chair too much, in the past, when he was in a bad mood, he sat in the sedan chair and wandered around the city, because that scene was the most common in Jinling City, from officials to businessmen with a few money, they all liked to sit in the sedan chair and wander around, and it was not easy for people to know their identity.

But today is to go out at night, and then let the sedan chair man stay up all night waiting for himself to enter and exit the palace, and then carry the sedan chair back, it is too troublesome, and when traveling at night, the carriage is far safer than the sedan chair. Therefore, at this moment, he opened the curtain of the car, and when he saw that the pier of the car had been placed, he got out of the carriage and stepped on the pier to get off the ground, and then stretched out without any image.

"It's all at the door of my house, that's all there is to it, what sedan chair do you want to sit on? Walk in. Remember to close the portal. ”

Old lady Yue said as he walked in by himself, until a few guards came up, and he asked one of them who had been with Yue Ying for the longest time: "You go first and go to the east wing of Heming Xuan to have a look, if Xiao Ying sleeps, don't be alarmed, if he is still waiting, please invite him to see me." ”

Seeing that the guard agreed and left in a hurry, Old Lady Yue had already roughly expected the result in his heart. With Yue Ying's temperament, it was impossible for him to sleep peacefully before he came back. I don't know how Yue Ying and Yue Qianqiu chatted, and whether the two of them would all stay up all night in Heming Xuan and wait for him at this time. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but have a headache when he had just dealt with Yuru in front of the emperor, and he secretly thought that the debt of his children and grandchildren was the real debt.

However, when he was about to arrive in front of the Heming Xuan Courtyard, he saw that the guard had just run back with a smoke, and when he came to him, he arched his hand and said, "Old lady, Master Ying is not here!" ”

Absence? Could it be that he is still confronting Yue Qianqiu in his relatives? After all, that letter was no small news......

Old lady Yue wanted to think so, but she always felt a little uneasy in her heart. In the end, he said in a deep voice: "You should be careful to go over and take a look, if Qianqiu and Xiaoying are here, let them come to see me together." Remember, don't alarm the others, especially the fourth daughter-in-law and Nuo Nuo, one is not in good health, the other is still young, sleep is the most important! ”

When the old lady Yue entered Heming Xuan and asked someone to make a pot of strong tea, she was a cup of hot strong tea, and the guard who went to check on her relatives came back.

Before he could ask, the guard said with a bitter face: "Old lady, the shadow master is not here, and neither is the ninth prince." Mr. Xu came out to see the movement when he heard the movement, and he was quite surprised when he heard about my intention. said that the ninth prince came back after the child, and was complained by the fourth wife, and then went back to the house, he didn't see the shadow master......"

"Didn't you see? He hadn't seen Xiaoying, how could Xiaoying and Qianqiu disappear together? Old lady Yue only felt that this situation was simply incredible, and suddenly raised her voice.

"Don't worry, old lady, I haven't finished yet! But Mr. Xu later said that it seemed that after hearing that Jiu Gongzi returned to the room, he seemed to be talking to someone, because this was at home, and Jiu Gongzi ordered everyone to go to sleep, so he didn't have a theory, it is estimated that Jiu Gongzi and Ying Ye were talking at that time. Since neither of them is there, they must have gone out together. ”

A...... Out?

This time, even if the old lady Yue was really sleepy, he couldn't sleep. He unconsciously rubbed the handrail with his hand, and only nodded slightly for a long time before nodding slightly, "Okay, you can go down." Let them go and have a good rest, and when the lights are turned on tonight, you can also take your family to watch the fun. ”

When the guard retreated, the old lady Yue said to himself: "Qianqiu has always been a small ghost, and he knows the severity best, not to mention Xiaoying, it is absolutely impossible for people with temperament to ...... Where can you go on this big and small night? Xiaoying took the letter to see Chiaki, and if Chiaki couldn't accept it for a while, then the place they were most likely to go to......"

Din'an's Tomb!

Old lady Yue patted the handrail and stood up, but he thought that the place was by no means ordinarily remote, and it was outside the city. It is still possible for Yue Ying and Yue Qianqiu to go out of the city at night, even if he is a dignified prime minister, it is absolutely impossible for him to go out. And with his old bones, even if he sits in the most galloping carriage, he will definitely be absent from the dawn when he arrives there, and there is no second result.

He breathed a sigh of relief and decisively decided to go to bed first and lie down for a while, even if it was a little sleep. Even if it is less than an hour later, he will have to prepare for the sun-looking pilgrimage on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and this little time of rest and a ginseng soup will be almost enough. In the tenure of the head of the household, he can still take a leave of absence, but now he can't.

Therefore, he must not be the prime minister for too long...... If it's too long, he'll have to be ready to die in office!

"Three years...... Or five years? ”

After a busy night's work, he didn't even have the strength to wash his feet, let alone take a bath at this time, so he slowly undressed and hung on the hanger, and then lay down on the bed, still calculating this question that others would think was nonsense. The room was warm, the bed was also hot, and the warm quilt was covered, even if he ran back and forth to the palace, the cold on his body was quickly dispelled, and he fell asleep after a while.

"Grandpa, grandpa!"

I don't know how long it took, but Old Lady Yue suddenly caught a continuous call in his ears. When he realized that it was Yue Qianqiu's voice, he was still a little confused, and he immediately sobered up, and tried his best to open his drooping eyelids, and then he saw the two people at the head of the bed clearly. He subconsciously wanted to support his body and sit up, but was helped by Yue Qianqiu.

"Grandpa, slow down...... If it hadn't been for the fact that you should have gotten up and prepared for the court, I wouldn't have come here at this hour......"

"Little bunny!" Old lady Yue knocked on Yue Qianqiu's head angrily, "Don't talk to me about these nonsense and be sloppy, where did you and Xiaoying run away at night?" I can't find anyone when I come back! ”

Yue Qianqiu glanced back at Yue Ying, and after calming down, he said in a low voice: "Uncle Ying and I went to the place where Ding An was buried. ”

Faced with this expected answer, Old Lady Yue frowned, but she still didn't believe it: "With Xiaoying's foot strength, how long does it take to go on a trip?" According to the answer of the person who asked Xu Hao, the two of you have been out for at least two hours. ”

Yue Qianqiu couldn't help but look at Yue Ying again, and then said with a bitter face: "It turns out that grandpa, don't you know?" Uncle Ying also dug up the grave. ”

"What?" Old lady Yue's eyes really widened at this time, "In the middle of the night, Xiaoying, you actually went to dig a grave?" ”

Seeing that Yue Ying nodded, he actually admitted it, realizing that the situation was different from what he was thinking, his old face suddenly wrinkled together, especially when he saw Yue Ying take out a paper bag from his arms that he had never seen and hand it to him, he understood even more that something was wrong.

Opening the paper bag, he unfolded the silk book, and found that the contents were exactly the same as the letter that Yue Ying had shown him before, so he asked with a solemn face, "Found in the coffin?" ”

"No, it was given to Qianqiu by Cheng Qianqian, claiming to be her mother's relic." Yue Ying gave an answer instead of Yue Qianqiu, and seeing that the old lady Yue's face was suddenly as severe as frost, he added, "Qianqiu went to tell his master today, and he was going to come back and tell the old lady, but he ran into me, so this is ......."

"Little rabbit, the wings are stiff, you dare not tell me first!" A lot of older people didn't sleep well all night, and they were no less angry than young people, but at this time, the old lady Yue, who was smoking, couldn't help but interrupt Yue Ying's words, grabbed Yue Qianqiu's ears, and said angrily, "Cheng Qianqian can give you something, how many days ago did this happen?" You've dragged it out to this day! ”

Yue Qianqiu only hated that he couldn't use his skills to protect his ears, so he could only stick his head to the old lady's hand as much as possible, so that he could reduce some pain, but he muttered: "Because I don't want people to see it, I just want to destroy the count, so maybe no one will know in the future......"

Faced with such an explanation, Old Lady Yue suddenly fell silent. He involuntarily let go of his hand, rubbed Yue Qianqiu's head casually, sighed deeply and said, "I also hope that you are my own grandson, but there are some things that you don't exist when they don't exist." How could you be such a smart person as you as did not think that there could be a second letter with one letter? ”

Yue Qianqiu was suddenly a little unnatural, but he still said with an innocent face: "I was in a bad mood after I knew about this before, of course, I just wanted to delay it for a while...... I have a grandfather, an uncle, a master, and a mother and a nuo no, which is enough, and I don't want to have more relatives who have not fulfilled their responsibilities at all, and have no memories and impressions at all. ”

Similar words, Yue Qianqiu once said, the old lady Yue and Yue Ying were impressed, but at this time, they still heard him say so, and even more when the two documentary evidence in hand showed that he was likely to be the son of Empress Beiyan, they naturally felt mixed feelings. However, after being moved in an instant, Mrs. Yue couldn't help but hate the iron and grabbed Yue Qianqiu's ears again.

"You kid has no ambitions! I didn't think that your grandfather, I and others already knew that you were the prince of Beiyan, and they were waiting for you to beg me to send troops to help you take the throne of Beiyan? ”

Yue Qianqiu screamed in pain, but this time he didn't hesitate to break free from the clutches of the old lady Yue, and then stepped back two times, and snorted lightly angrily.

"Grandpa, you lie to the ghost! Last time, the eldest princess of Dongyang and the emperor quietly walked through the secret passage to see Xiao Qingqing, but the emperor changed his face when he saw her and recognized her. It turned out that it was no one else who was good with the emperor at the beginning, it was Queen Beiyan, and even the little fat man was wrapped in swaddling clothes and Xiao Qingqing took it to the emperor. If you really want to find this kind of excuse for sending troops to the Northern Expedition, then Ying Xiaopang is more suitable than me. But the emperor is not so stupid, I have a thousand and ten thousand excuses to fight Beiyan, there is no need for this! ”

Old lady Yue's face suddenly changed slightly, and then she glared at her little grandson angrily: "You also hide such a big thing from me?" ”

"Thank God the emperor didn't kill me at that time, how dare I talk more!" Yue Qianqiu confidently called Tianqu, "Besides, the emperor may have been observing his grandfather's reaction before, and maybe he tested you, and saw that you behaved as usual, so I felt that I was tight-lipped as a bottle, so I didn't believe that he really didn't care so much!" ”

Although he pretended to lose his temper just now, Old Lady Yue's thinking was already running rapidly.

A few days ago, the emperor talked to himself about canonizing the crown prince and letting Xiao Jingxian officially start teaching the little fat man, and his attitude has not changed from the past. He had no objection to establishing the crown prince, but he decided that he couldn't let Xiao Jingxian get along with the little fat man alone. The emperor agreed quite at that time, but now that he thinks about it, it is hard to guarantee that he is not tempting whether Yue Qianqiu confided the truth to him after he returned......

Although even if Yue Qianqiu really said it, the emperor may not really be like it, but Yue Qianqiu's choice to temporarily conceal it before must not be said to be wrong...... The only thing he was uncomfortable with was probably that this kid went to tell Yan Xu first.

calmed down the not-so-good mood, and the old lady Yue finally remembered the question that had been prevaricated just now, and immediately lowered his face and said: "Don't talk to me either, go to dig the grave at night, what do you dig up?" ”

Yue Qianqiu looked at Yue Ying again. He really felt a little uncomfortable with the bracelet, and when Yue Ying came up again, he returned it.

At this moment, when Yue Ying brought the bracelet to the old lady Yue, he interjected and said, "Grandpa, this looks very similar to the bracelet that Cheng Qianqian gave me to hide the silk book, but we didn't open it." And there is a very important question, according to what Uncle Ying said, when Ding An was first buried, it was arranged by others, since those people were greedy, how could they let go of this bracelet? ”

This time, the person who answered was Yue Ying: "Qianqiu, I forgot to tell you before that this bracelet was not on Ding An's hand bones, but was found near her leg bones, but it was not on it, but scattered on the side. In other words, she did not wear the bracelet, but probably cut her thighs and put them in before sewing them up. ”

"I'm afraid the time is not long before she carries you out of the fire, otherwise, with such a big wound, she can't show the slightest flaw in her daily life. When I moved to the burial, not long after she was buried, she was charred all over, especially on her legs, so no one noticed that she was hiding. When the flesh is gone, the bracelet will naturally fall out. ”

Yue Qianqiu only felt a chill in his vest, such a cruel and tragic way of hiding things, what was Ding An hiding?

Even if Yue Qianqiu said to Yue Ying that this was exactly the same as the bracelet that Cheng Qianqian gave him, because it was not suitable in the cemetery and on the road before, the two did not try to open the bracelet. At this moment, he saw the old lady Yue hand the bracelet back to Yue Ying, nodded and motioned for someone to open it.

Yue Ying fiddled with something for a while, her nails scratched a few times at the suspected seams, and then she suddenly used force in her hand, and Huo Ran cracked a crack in the middle of the bracelet, and finally became two petals. And in the narrow groove in the middle, it was indeed an extremely thin roll of silk, which at first glance was only a little, but when Yue Ying carefully picked it out and unfolded it, there were also two palm-sized pieces.

However, on this huge silk book, it is not as dense as the one that Yue Qianqiu has seen before, and it is full of fly-headed small letters, only a few very simple words.

The son is not the queen!
