Liu Yan flipped through the booklet in his hand over and over again, his expression was always solemn, and finally he sighed and handed the booklet to Chu Shenxia. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chu Shenxia was different from him, looking at every page with extreme caution and caution, refusing to let go of a single detail.

When Lu Qianzhi took out the booklet, the two were very surprised, they thought that the booklet had been taken by Lu Yuanming, but they didn't expect that Lu Qianzhi actually copied another copy with his unforgettable memory.

Chu Shenxia read it carefully a few times and probably remembered some of it, but it was not easy to be as memorable as Lu Qianzhi.

"This records the mistakes made by seventy-eight officials a few years ago, and it seems that it is indeed as Lu Qianzhi said, it is just an ordinary booklet that records the mistakes made by officials, and he doesn't know the name of it, I'm afraid we have to work a lot of effort." Chu Shenxia closed the booklet and handed it back to Liu Yan.

He didn't answer, and pushed it to Chu Shenxia's chest, "It's more reassuring for you to hold me." ”

The carriage stopped suddenly, Chu Shenxia hurriedly stuffed the booklet into the placket, and glanced out of the car through the gap in the window, it was the suburbs outside Jiankang City at the moment, and it would be Dongzhimen in another moment.

A majestic voice came into the car, "Who is in the car?" Quickly come out for interrogation. ”

Listening to the voice should be one of the three divisions of the Imperial City Division, but there is no major event in the city today, according to the convention, there is no need to be so strict, not to mention, they have not entered the city yet, why do they need to be interrogated?

Liu Yan's eyebrows jumped, feeling that something was a little strange, Chu Shenxia had already taken off the waist card, lifted the curtain slightly, and said sharply: "The crown prince Qin's waist card is here, Lord Cong can rest assured." ”

There was no expression on Na Cong Jian's face, and he replied indifferently: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the car?" ”

Chu Shenxia glanced at Liu Yan from the corner of his eyes, he didn't go to the early court today, and he asked for sick leave, if others knew that the prince was not actually sick, and he went out to play in the mountains and rivers, it would be bad for such words to reach the emperor's ears.

"Your Highness is naturally not in the carriage, Your Highness is occasionally sentimental with typhoid fever, and now she is in the East Palace, and I am going to the eastern suburbs on the orders of Your Highness." Chu Shenxia replied.

"Oh?" Cong Jian sat on the back of the horse, his gaze was naturally higher than Chu Shenxia, and his domineering attitude became more and more obvious, he smiled and said: "I am waiting for the emperor's order to check the carriages coming and going in Jiankang City, and we must not let go of any of them." If Your Highness is here, then I don't dare to offend Your Highness, but if Your Highness is not there, it will be easy to do, and there is no offense or offense, you get out of the car quickly, and I will send someone to search to see if there is anything suspicious. ”

Liu Yan's face sank, he didn't know what to do at the moment, the light in front of him suddenly dimmed when he was distracted, and when he came back to his senses, Chu Shenxia, who was seated, had already shrunk back and sat upright, and said in a low tone but very powerfully: "The fish in Taihu Lake is exceptionally delicious, send ten catties to Lord Cong's mansion another day?" ”

Liu Yan didn't understand Chu Shenxia's intentions, and he didn't know what the reaction of the people outside was, in short, he was silent for a long time before he heard him scold in a suppressed voice: "You guy, it's just a prince's housekeeper, the prince raised you in the East Palace, you are very loyal, no wonder now the court and the middle of the court, are spreading the good things about you and the prince, phew, it's really disgusting!" ”

The wind swept his face, Chu Shenxia was shocked and pulled Liu Yan back, and after pressing him, he said very quickly: "I think Lord Cong can't wait, I promise that the ten catties of fish can be sent to the adult's mansion at this moment." ”

"Release!" The people outside the car could no longer stand the pressure and spit out two words through gritted teeth.

The carriage moved again, and Chu Shenxia glanced at Liu Yan, who was full of black lines, and felt very funny: "Your Highness, what's the matter?" Can't you listen to that? I think he clearly knew that His Highness was in the car, and deliberately provoked His Highness. ”

Liu Yan glared at him, the anger on his face finally retreated, and he wondered, "How did he know that I was in the car?" Are you coming for me? ”

"Naturally, it can't be for me, I think this is mostly King Qing behind the scenes, it seems that His Royal Highness is busy when he returns to the East Palace, from top to bottom, everyone has to check clearly." Chu Shenxia looked out of the matter, and added a sentence at the end: "You have to investigate quietly, you can't be discovered, and if you find out, you can't expose it, and you will use their mouth to spread some false news or something in the future." ”

Liu Yan nodded very seriously, and said with his forehead: "It's really busy, I know that this is not something that can be done in a while, so it's hard for you, check carefully, and try to find out King Qing's people as soon as possible." ”

"Me?" Chu Shenxia pointed at himself, but he didn't expect to take on a drudgery for himself.

Liu Yan nodded again, and said very naturally: "Of course it's you, you are the most idle person in my East Palace, not who are you?" ”

Chu Shenxia was about to refute a few words, but Liu Yan had already diverted the topic and said seriously: "What did you mean by fish just now?" Why did Cong Jian dismiss the idea of searching when he heard it? ”

Seeing that he didn't mean to answer, Liu Yan couldn't help but lightly punch him in the shoulder and urged: "Don't hold back, just say it." ”

Chu Shenxia glanced at him meaningfully, pointed to his chest, and said with a smile: "Coincidentally? Cong Jian was one of the seventy-eight officials. Three years ago, he passed by Taihu Lake and saw a fisherman woman who looked very similar to his late wife, so he bought ten catties of fish and ordered the woman to deliver it to the house in person. ”

"After the woman went, Cong Jian detained her, and instead of forcing others to be his own concubines, there was nothing wrong with her, after all, she was a four-grade official, and she was given three delicious meals a day, but guess what?" Chu Shenxia's eyes flashed and looked at Liu Yan.

Liu Yan naturally didn't know, shook his head blankly, and Chu Shenxia said again: "That fisherwoman originally had a husband, and it was only three days after she got married, and when he saw that his wife went to Cong Jian's mansion and didn't return, he ran to ask for someone, and the subordinates in Cong Jian's mansion beat him to death with a mistake. When the fisherwoman learned about it, she cried a lot, and then went to Huangquan to find her husband. ”

Speaking of the end, Chu Shenxia changed his tone and said: "This matter was finally suppressed, although Lu Xiufu didn't write who pressed it down and in what way, but I guess it's either the Criminal Department or the people from the Punishment Temple, Lu Xiufu may want to find out that person with various cases, or he may have found it, but he doesn't dare to write it, so as not to bring trouble to his wife and children." ”

After listening to this, Liu Yan was silent for a while, and asked in Chu Shenxia's expectant eyes: "You brought that booklet to me to see, I just saw that he didn't seem to write it in such detail." ”

Chu Shenxia's eyes darkened a little, took out the booklet and handed it to him, and said, "Some of them are my own guesses, in short, things are probably like that, Your Highness doesn't have to focus on this aspect." ”

His meaning was already obvious, Liu Yan saw that what was written in the booklet was really concise and to the point, not as colorful as what Chu Shenxia said, so he was suddenly a little bored, turned it over roughly, and returned it to Chu Shenxia.

Then he said seriously: "Who could that person be?" can actually harm the queen and Uncle Qin Wang to this point, and even mess up the government and the opposition, looking at my Southern Song Dynasty, I really can't think of who this person is. ”

"Don't worry, the man's tail will slowly be revealed, and there is something important waiting for us to do right now." After Chu Shenxia said this, the carriage just stopped.

Liu Yan stood up and responded: "I know, you said that you will put the East Palace in order, this matter has already been discussed, and it is hard for you." ”

"No, Your Highness, the most important thing at this moment is to pull Cong Jian down from the position of Simen."

Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, and looked back to see that Chu Shenxia had no intention of getting out of the carriage, so he sat back again, frowned, and said: "What kind of trouble are we stirring up with him, you shouldn't be resentful of him?" ”

Chu Shenxia laughed very helplessly and explained: "Since we already know the crimes he committed, he will definitely be prepared, and he is a person from King Qing, so he is not allowed to strike first, of course, he will naturally not attack His Highness." ”

Liu Yan's eyes jumped, seeing that the meaning of his words seemed to be a bit aimed at himself, and just as he was about to say a few words, Chu Shenxia had already continued: "Your Highness is now the prince, but because you have been fighting outside all the year round in the past, the forbidden army, the imperial forest army and the Rong army under the jurisdiction of the Imperial City Division in the imperial city, Your Royal Highness has no military power. On the surface, most of the military power was still in the hands of the emperor, and only a small part was under the jurisdiction of King Qing. But over the years, King Qing has stolen the dragon and turned the phoenix, and the army officials have been brought under his command, and now the situation can already stand against the emperor. ”

At this point, Liu Yan finally understood that Fang Cai was just Chu Shenxia's joke, and what he was talking about at this moment was really important, and his face couldn't help turning white and red.

What he said, in fact, he also thought about it, and he really thought about it, and never really wanted to start from this aspect, so that he would have power in his hands in the future, and now listening to his careful analysis, it was really a little urgent, and he took a breath and asked: "Do you want me to seize the military power with King Qing?" Pull his people down from the key positions one by one? ”

"Yes, in fact, the emperor sees the situation much more clearly than us, who does things for whom, how can he not perceive it? Cong Jian's crime is a fact, and he is in an important position in the Imperial City Division, how many things have he done for King Qing over the years? I'm afraid that the emperor won't be able to settle his charges. ”

Liu Yan couldn't help nodding, and suddenly remembered a fundamental question, he couldn't help but pause, and said in surprise: "But we don't have evidence, we can't hand over this booklet transcribed by Lu Qianzhi to my father, right?" ”

"Well, this is a difficult matter, I will find a way to find the whereabouts of the fisherwoman's family in the next few days, Your Highness does not have to wait for me to find evidence before consulting the emperor to the emperor, and I can point it out in person tomorrow morning."

Why is that? Isn't my empty talk slander? Liu Yan was obviously puzzled.

"The emperor is worried about the weakening of the situation in his hands, no matter whether what you say is true or false at this moment, he will definitely seize this opportunity and bite Cong Jian." After Chu Shenxia finished speaking, he lifted the curtain of the carriage, obviously asking him to get off the carriage.

Liu Yan was stunned, he hadn't finished speaking, how could he ...... With a flash of his eyes, he caught a person outside the carriage walking towards the carriage, and then he simply jumped out of the carriage.
