Yes, Qin Lin didn't seem to have done anything in the investigation of the case, stirring up the city, but the clues found out were very limited, and he didn't even find anything at all: Zhu Yingzhen, the Duke of Chengguo, did not get the "Qingming Riverside Map" back then, which is undoubted; Wu Qingbo Li Wei's statement was that he "suddenly felt that there was a lack of paintings hanging in the middle hall" before he entered the palace to ask for it from the Empress Dowager Li, and there was no other disadvantage; On the handover list of the household department, there is no such national treasure at all.

There is no landing in all aspects, could it be that Qin Lin ran in vain?

In many cases, there is no clue itself as a clue, and all kinds of channels outside the palace have been proved impossible, so the only possible surname is ...... Qin Lin was in full swing outside the palace, but the palace was deserted, and this strong contrast between the two heavens of ice and fire soon aroused the suspicion of all parties in the government and the opposition, from the Metropolitan Procuratorate who heard about the rumors to the three law divisions who were in charge of the punishment, from the little eunuchs in the palace to the people in the market, all kinds of gossips flew all over the sky.

All kinds of rumors invariably pointed to the palace.

When Xu Xinyi entered the palace to see her cousin again, she obviously noticed the abnormality of the atmosphere, and the little eunuch and the little palace maid who had been talking and laughing with her before all shrunk their mouths, lest they would be killed if they said one more word, and the old grandmother who was in charge of raising the eldest princess bowed to her again and again:

"Miss Xu, the old body begs you to give me a way to live, the wind in the palace is very tight today, and you must not take the eldest princess out of the palace privately again - last time, the old body risked killing his head, and he didn't dare to tell this matter!"

Xu Xinyi nodded with a smile: "Not this time, well, thank you for not saying it." ”

My aunt and grandmother too, the old grandmother secretly called it a fluke.

Last time, Xu Xinyi ordered the maids to restrain these palace maids and take Zhu Yaoyao out of the palace privately, from the moment the eldest princess stepped out of the threshold of the Forbidden City, these palace maids became grasshoppers on a rope, as long as the matter is exposed, no one can escape, so no one will denounce and kill themselves.

Xu Xinyi walked into the palace where Zhu Yaoyuan was, but saw that the eldest princess had a sad face, her thin curved eyebrows were twisted, and her wonderful eyes were full of sorrow, and she was stunned, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Crazy, stupid, stupid?" Xu Xinyi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

Yes? Zhu Yaoyuan was taken aback, only then came back to her senses, and saw that the cousin who was the most trusting and worshipping was coming, she slowly settled down, looked around, and stopped talking, her expression was like a poor little rabbit.

"What's the matter, spit, cousin, can you just do it?" Miss Xu's willow eyebrows furrowed, and her hands pressed on Zhu Yaoyao's shoulders: "No matter what, you are also the sister of Emperor Wanli, the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

"I, I think, isn't it, that, Brother-in-law Qin's side ......"

Zhu Yaoyao blushed and stammered for a long time, which made Xu Xinyi's heart flutter, secretly thinking that it was not the old man Li Wei who said a prophecy, and his granddaughter also fell in love with Qin Lin? No, it seems that she has always liked the kind of Jiangnan genius who is polite and eloquent!

Zhu Yaoyao finally mustered up her courage and said embarrassedly: "I, my four treasures, let Brother-in-law Qin not check it, now the matter of "Qingming Riverside Map" is so big, and I add these few things, I'm so scared ......"

Xu Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his cousin's appearance of being afraid of wolves and tigers, and couldn't help but feel a little angry: "My eldest princess, what are you afraid of!" Qin Lin said, you can come back with your things in just one or two days, that guy can't be relied on anywhere else, this cousin, I can pack a ticket. ”

Zhu Yaoyao wrung her fingers, and her voice was low: "I also think that although my brother-in-law is fierce and vicious, he looks like a general, and he doesn't deceive people, but I'm just worried that he will cause other trouble in order to find my four things, and cause him to be demoted or something, then it will be too embarrassing." ”

Rao is Miss Xu is very arrogant, and she can't help but feel a little moved when she hears the words, this kind-hearted eldest princess has always only considered others, and endures any grievances by herself, and would rather not have her beloved treasures, nor Qin Lin to cause trouble.

After all these years of loneliness in the deep palace, I don't know how she survived...... "It's okay, that guy Qin Lin, even if he pokes a hole in the sky, he won't lose a cold hair," Xu Xinyi waved his hand quite confidently, that ghost guy, when did he ever suffer?

Zhu Yaoyuan looked at her cousin, as if she didn't believe it. Of course, I saw Qin Lin's fierce and vicious appearance, but the Feng Bao and Zhang Whale I had seen in the palace, and the legendary Dongchang Xu Jue and Chen Yingfeng outside the palace, which one was not a demon who ate people and didn't spit out bones? Qin Lin was circling around, could he really be unscathed?

There is a statue of Guanyin in the room, the eldest princess walked over and knelt down, put her hands together and prayed sincerely: "Guanyin Niangniang bless Brother-in-law Qin not to cause trouble, bless cousin and brother-in-law for a hundred years, Bodhisattva don't blame the lack of greed, the believer is willing not to have a few things outside the body......"

This coward! Xu Xinyi rubbed his temples with both hands, seven points of helplessness and three points of emotion.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, Zhu Yaoyuan stood up in surprise, Xu Xinyi didn't care, and ran out first to see what was going on.

Seven or eight little eunuchs carried all kinds of treasures into the courtyard, and the leader knelt down to Zhu Yaoyuan and said: "Due to the investigation of the "Qingming Riverside Map", the sale of the treasures in the palace to enrich the treasury has been temporarily stopped, and Gonggong Feng ordered that all the things that have not yet been handed over to the household department be returned to the owner. ”

Haiyue Qinghui Qin, black and white jade chess pieces, poems of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River and Fuchun Mountain residence map, there are many pieces, and they are all returned to Zhao.

Zhu Yaoyuan was like falling into the clouds, not so much joy, but more surprise.

After the little eunuchs left, she grabbed Xu Xinyi's arm: "Cousin, I, I didn't dream, right?" ”

"Do you want me to pinch you?" Xu Xinyi pursed his lips, and then looked around the four treasures with interest: "It's strange, what method did Qin Lin use to ask Feng Bao to return these things?" Why don't you take it out and sell it again? ”

Zhu Yaoyao's eyes widened even more, and she could hear Xu Xinyi's words, if you don't believe it, the four treasures are clearly and truly placed here, if you want to believe it, it is even more incredible:

Feng Baozhi served as the eunuch and the governor of Dongchang, and he was arrogant and domineering, he only recognized Empress Dowager Li alone in the palace, and even her imperial brother Wanli Yanjing didn't pay much attention to it - the eldest princess knew that the imperial brother called this eunuch "Feng Daban", and even faintly afraid of him!

Qin Lin can actually ask Feng Bao to return the things obediently, this is too powerful, no wonder he can let his cousin be his flat wife...... At the same time that Xu Xinyi and Zhu Yaoyuan were guessing what method Qin Lin used to force Feng Bao to return the four treasures, Chief Qin also received a notice to enter the palace to investigate the case.
