Chapter 185: Bole Knows Horses

After Liu Yan finished talking with everyone, he went back to the dormitory sullenly, thought about it for a night, and went to the morning court with a pair of black eyes on the second day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

At the beginning of the early dynasty, Liu Yan came out and saluted: "Father, the son is guilty." ā€

In the surprised eyes of the ministers, the emperor calmly asked, "What are you guilty of?" ā€

"Erchen donated 1,000 taels of silver with several ministers yesterday, but he didn't think about it, which led to the desire of the ministers in the court to compare, and some even wanted to take out all their belongings to save face."

The ministers behind him looked at each other, lowered their heads, and listened to him again: "The son has a proposal, and the father may wish to listen to it." ā€

"You say."

"No more than fifty taels of silver may be donated by an official below the seventh rank, and no more than one hundred taels under the third rank. In addition, officials who do not have shops or rent land must not donate more than 30 taels of silver, and officials who have more than two seriously ill people in their families are not allowed to donate. Liu Yan made the proposal very clearly.

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice of approval in the main hall, and the emperor nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, I think Zishun's proposal is good, so let's do it." ā€

As soon as the words fell, the ministers who were still pointing Liu Yan behind their backs yesterday also opened their mouths to echo and praise them continuously.

The early dynasty ended in a pleasant atmosphere, Liu Yan was worried about Concubine Gao Xian, so he went to ask for peace, and returned to the East Palace a few quarters of an hour late.

After returning to the East Palace, I learned that after Liu Zhengsheng went down to the court, he didn't find Liu Yan, so he hurried to the East Palace.

Liu Yan hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for?" Hurry up and find Banrong and go to Lord Liu's mansion together. ā€

"Your Highness, don't worry, Doctor Sun and Chu Shenxia have already gone." Lu Zhi hurriedly explained.

Liu Yan calmed down a little and asked again, "Did you hear who sent that assassin?" ā€

"I haven't heard of it."

Liu Yan thought about it, but he was still not very relieved, and while ordering Lu Zhi to prepare the horse, he took the sword on the side, turned around neatly, and ran out of the door.

When I arrived at the main gate of the East Palace, I didn't see Lu Zhi and Ma. Liu Yan paced back and forth, feeling very surprised, so he had to order the guards on the side to find Lu Zhi.

The guards soon returned, panting and saying, "His Royal Highness the Prince." No one was seen. ā€

This is the first time this kind of thing has happened, of course Liu Yan felt very strange, and personally ran to the sedan chair and found that there was indeed no one. I asked the guards in the sedan chair field, only to find that Lu Zhi had never been here at all.

Although Liu Yan felt strange, he didn't take it to heart, he led the horse and ran to Liu's mansion.

"Why did Your Highness come here?"

Faced with Chu Shenxia's question, Liu Yan didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say concisely: "The road is delayed, how is Lord Liu?" ā€

"My life is saved, but we have to recuperate for a while before we can go out, and it seems that we can only rely on ourselves next." Chu Shenxia patted Liu Yan on the shoulder. Motioned for him to go outside.

Walking to the corner of the courtyard, Chu Shenxia picked up Fang Cai's words, and continued: "The murderer's intentions are obvious, he doesn't want us to be able to overturn the case for King Qin, Lord Liu must have found out the murderer's sore spots, so the murderer will be killed, but the murder method is obviously clumsier than the previous one, so ......"

"So you think that the murderer this time is someone else, not sent by Liu Yu." Seeing him pause, Liu Yan said what he thought in his heart.

Chu Shenxia nodded. glanced back at the door and whispered, "Lord Liu checked the Langya Wang clan before. ā€

"What? That ......" Liu Yan tightened his brows, not knowing what to say, and said anxiously. "I have an alliance with the Langya Wang clan now, although it is only fake, but in the eyes of others, it is a grasshopper on a boat, how should this be?"

"I think the Langya Wang clan must have also been involved in this conspiracy, according to the signs of the previous days. Most likely, it was for the sake of the Wandering Theory. He knew that His Highness wanted to overturn the case, and he was afraid that he would also be involved in this turmoil, so he jumped over the wall and wanted to destroy the evidence. Although he did these things a little clumsy, but thinking about it, there is no evidence to point to him, so it is better to put aside the matter of Wangyou Theory for a while and think about how to overturn the case for King Qin. The case was overturned one day earlier, King Qin was Zhaoxue one day earlier, and the Ji family could also appear in the court as he wished. Chu Shenxia looked at Liu Yan and saw that there was a lot of approval in his eyes.

After Liu Yan nodded frequently, he suddenly remembered something, paused and said, "Let Banrong stay here to take care of Lord Liu, you and I will go back to the East Palace first." ā€

Seeing that Liu Yan's face was burnt, Chu Shenxia couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" What happened to the East Palace? ā€

"No, the East Palace is very good," Liu Yan shook his head and said confusedly, "Before I left the palace, I ordered Lu Zhi to prepare the horse, but the others were gone, I don't know where I went, I was worried about ......"

"Okay, then let's hurry back to the East Palace."

Not far from Liu's mansion, Xu Zhicai respectfully saluted Liu Yan, and Liu Yan stopped in front of him and said, "Doctor Xu also came to see Lord Liu?" ā€

"No, I'm here to wait for Your Highness." Xu Zhicai smiled faintly, polite and restrained, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the carriage hidden in the alley, and said, "I don't know if you two can come with me?" ā€

Liu Yan looked at Chu Shenxia and saw that his eyes were also full of surprise, he didn't know what kind of fame this Xu Zhicai was doing, so he wanted to find out, so he got off the horse and got into the carriage.

The carriage drove slowly, but Xu Zhicai couldn't wait to speak: "I have something to show His Highness here." ā€

As he spoke, he took out a thick stack of stationery from his sleeve, handed it to Liu Yan and said, "This is the letter sent by Wei Shuming, I will send someone to intercept it every time, copy it again and send it over." ā€

"What? These are Wei Shuming's handwritten letters? Liu Yan can hardly describe himself as shocked, one is for these letters, and the other is for Xu Zhicai.

Xu Zhicai nodded, saw Liu Yan open the letter and read it, and said busily: "Your Highness doesn't need to be in such a hurry, I have other things I want to tell Your Highness." ā€

"Okay, you say." Liu Yan put away the action of opening the letter and looked at him with burning eyes.

"At that time, I had excellent medical skills, but there was no hope for Kaotai Hospital, just because I was young, and those old imperial doctors were obsessed with the new diagnosis method I proposed. When King Qin heard about this, he felt very sorry, but he did not use his status as a prince to help me forcibly enter the Tai Hospital, but created an opportunity for me to meet Zhu Guogong, who was troubled by his old cold legs. I naturally alleviated Zhu Guogong's illness, Zhu Guogong was grateful to me, so he praised me in front of the emperor, and felt aggrieved that I could not enter the hospital, and the emperor was very happy to hear this, and even allowed me to enter the hospital to study. Xu Zhicai recalled the events of many years ago, and his face was still slightly excited.

Liu Yan interjected: "So King Qin is the one who helped you enter the Tai Hospital?" He did this so that you could enter the hospital openly and without being looked at with contempt. ā€

"Yes, King Qin is really well-intentioned, his kindness, I have always kept it in my heart, everyone only does things for the Zhu family when I am appreciated by Zhu Guogong, but in fact, it is not. After King Qin's accident, I was very sad, I hated my uselessness, so in the name of the Zhu family, I began to investigate the case of that year. Luckily, to this day, no one doubts me. Xu Zhicai's face was slightly smug and smiled.

When Chu Shenxia heard him say this, he couldn't help but ask, "What about Liu Wenyin?" Did you arrange it for the East Palace? ā€

"Yes, in order to investigate the events of that year more directly, I tricked them into sending a widow of King Qin into the East Palace so that they could find out the news, and they were also convinced of the lies I told. In fact, I investigated deeply, and only then did I find out that King Qin actually had a daughter who was living among the people, and I found out that her biological mother was Gongsun Yunshu. I know that His Highness must have found out something, so let Wen Yin tell the trust of those deceived Highnesses. ā€

When Xu Zhicai said this, his eyes were sheng, and he lowered his voice and said, "About Wen Yin, I want to tell His Highness a big secret. ā€

"What?" After Liu Yan said these two words, he listened with bated breath, because everything he said was really surprising.

"Wen Yin is King Qin's biological child." After Xu Zhicai spit out this sentence, he also breathed out, he had hidden this secret for so many years, and the moment he said it, it was unexpectedly easy.

Liu Yan was a little flustered, and said dumbfounded: "What...... How so? Does Uncle Qinwang have so many illegitimate daughters? ā€

Xu Zhicai's eyes sank, and he said: "Of course Wen Yin is not the illegitimate daughter of Uncle Qinwang, when King Qin was imprisoned and was imminent, the princess pretended to have abdominal pain and summoned me. Later, she begged me to find a way to save her five-year-old daughter. I fed her the medicine of fake death at that time, and then used some means to bring her out, so that more people would not know about it, even King Qin didn't know about it. ā€

"This ......" Liu Yan was speechless, except for sadness on his face, he couldn't see half of the joy, it turned out that the situation back then was even more tragic than he imagined, and now when he heard him, his heart was inevitably like a knife.

Chu Shenxia saw that Liu Yan's face was pale, patted his hand and comforted him: "The princess is really smart, and this kind of vision and decisiveness are far beyond the reach of ordinary women. ā€

Liu Yan withdrew his hand, held his forehead, lowered his eyes and said nothing, the sadness in his heart, it was conceivable that Chu Shenxia even saw the tears dripping from his face on his robe.

The atmosphere suddenly became very heavy, Chu Shenxia made a look, and motioned for Xu Zhicai to speak, Xu Zhicai showed a look of embarrassment, and finally said: "Your Highness, I sent Wen Yin to the East Palace, on the one hand, I deceived the Zhu family, saying that I was using Wen Yin to find out the news, and on the other hand, I hoped that His Royal Highness could protect Wen Yin." For so many years, Wen Yin has also suffered a lot with me. ā€

When Liu Yan heard Xu Zhicai's voice, he quietly wiped away his tears and asked, "Does Wen Yin know her background?" ā€

Under Liu Yan's direct gaze, Xu Zhicai said word by word: "I know." ā€
