The grass and trees die in autumn, and the pines and cypresses remain alone.

Most of the people in the world love to see the snow pressing the green pine, but in the summer, the green color of a water is lush, in fact, it is not far behind, the pine leaves are like a spear such as a halberd, and the lonely high is lonely, but it is a pity that it is entrenched here, and few people appreciate.

The court at hand is not over yet, and he should be busy in the study, but Qi Qingfei has often come over recently, so Su Kai is no longer trapped in that room. The pine and cypress in the yard do not wither all the year round, its taste is clear, and there are no people to come and go, move a table to the corner, in fact, it is no different from the study, the world is big, and it can open up the mood more.

But there were a few peach trees in the neighbor's courtyard across the wall. This season, the new fruit is about to ripen, and the leaves on the tree are not so peaceful. coincided with the breeze, and the three or two pieces of whirling fell to Su Kai's desk. With a little childishness, he moved over with his pen, leaving a dark spot on the leaves. After thinking for a while, he moved the leaf in front of him, and smeared it with ink dots, and then formed a beautiful "Fei" character

Since the train of thought was interrupted, the things to be written stopped, Su Kai turned his head and glanced at the bright-eyed girl who was helping him copy the book in the Huxin Pavilion, where the red sleeves were fragrant, when the spring breeze was proud. The years never seemed so soft. It seemed that the two of them had a good heart, and Qi Qingfei also raised his head to look here, facing Su Yan's gaze. Seeing that Su Kai looked up at himself, he pretended to write an excerpt. Qi Qingfei couldn't sit still any longer, picked up his sword and ran to Su Yan's table in three or two steps. The leaf with the word "Fei" written on it is still in the future. Qi Qingfei quickly snatched it from Su Yan's hand, and when he shone into the sun, his face turned red instantly.

Su Yan piled up a smile on his face, as if no one was there, and went to clean up the things on the table. Today, that's the end of it, the summer is long, he can take Qingfei to do something else.

Qi Qingfei refused to give up, raised the short sword in his hand and said: "Brother Su said that he was going to deal with the affairs of the court here, but in fact, he was looking for a reason to send me away. ”

Su Yan held a stack of dossiers and his annotated manuscripts, glad that his hands were not idle, otherwise he would not be able to help but hold Qingfei in his arms at this moment. At this time, the two have no parents, and the other has no matchmakers, and the blind date is really beyond the norm. What's more, ....., he walked to the back room with his things. What's more, the emperor is still tirelessly making a matchmaker for the Shen family girl.

Su Kai couldn't wait, so after talking openly and honestly with Qi Qingfei, he decided to find out the truth as soon as possible and overturn the case for the Xue and Song families. After the matter was completed, he proposed to the emperor openly and honestly that he wanted to marry the fifth lady of the Qi family, and in this life and this life, he was the only one who could no longer promise the girl of the Shen family.

That night, Qi Qingyi and Qi Shiyan quarreled over Princess Sanssouci, but they never mentioned Wei Long. Therefore, what Qi Qingfei heard was nothing more than what Qi Shiyan did. At first, she was still worried about this matter, but after thinking about it for a few days, she ran over and asked Su Yan: "If my father really does such a thing, what will Brother Su do?" ”

Su Yana had already seen Xue Ling, and Qi Qingfei was crazy about it. He is also familiar with poetry and books, and all gentlemen are not vain, and their deeds must be right. Since Qi Qingfei didn't know anything about the events of the year, how could he be harsh? At the moment, he said: "Your father is your father, you are you." What's more, your eldest sister was angry that night, and what she said may not be all the truth, only the moment the matter comes to light, can she evaluate her merits. But no matter what, I, Song Cang, will not be angry with innocent people. ”

Qi Qingfei pinched the short sword and said loudly: "I'll follow Brother Su to investigate." ”

After that, Su Kai used his current position in the court to get some case files related to the events of the year, and stayed in this courtyard almost every day after the next court. Qi Qingfei also counted the time every day to help do some things to copy and sort out. Although it is complicated, the two have a common affection, and they make this thing a little fun.

The hard work pays off, and the comparison is carried out one by one. Su Kai really found a suspicious place. This matter is widely implicated, and there are dozens of confessions from officials of all sizes in the 16 cities in the northwest alone. He flipped through them one by one, and he could match them all. There is only one thing that makes people suspicious.

It's funny to say that this one is the most important one to convict Song Bai, but it is a handwritten letter handed back by Song Bai himself. wrote that he burned the body of Princess Sanssouci with a fire. Even though the reason for the letter is that the war has started, Xianbei besieges the city, which is really a helpless move. But as a courtier, this is a great rebellion, and this alone is enough for the Song family to be beheaded. So naturally, this letter is also sealed as evidence.

However, in the records of other files, it was finally determined that Song Bai had rebelled against the people of the Sixteen Cities in the Northwest, saying that they had not received the report of the Battle of Pingcheng, so no one knew that Tuoba Mill's army had moved south, and finally the northwest was lost. And after the inventory, it was found that Song Bai's whereabouts were unknown, and a large number of 30,000 soldiers in Pingcheng were not seen alive, and their bodies were not seen. From this, it can be concluded that Song Bai was treason and colluded with Xianbei.

Song Bai was stationed in Pingcheng all the year round, and naturally had a lot of correspondence with the Song family. After a few years of not seeing him, Su Kai can still be sure that the handwriting on the letter is his father's handwriting. This is a contradiction, if my father really didn't send a message to others saying that Tuoba Mill's army was heading south, how could he have traveled thousands of miles to deliver a letter back to Beijing saying that the war had started.

He hadn't thought that there was a problem with the confession of the sixteen cities, but he just wondered if someone had intercepted Pingcheng's letter and the news could not be spread. But in this case, who can intercept all the letters sent by Heijo? Where did the soldiers of the Pingcheng news go, and where did Daddy go? He wanted to ask Xue Ling, but remembered that Xue Ling wrote a few days ago saying that he would leave Beijing for a while. This matter is stuck at this point, and the only way to make plans is to wait for Xue Ling to discuss with the two of them.

Su Yan was so happy that when he had forgotten that he was going to take these files, many adults reminded: "I said that Master Zhuangyuan, there are some things, what do you have to do with him." ”

He was about to put the things in hand back into the room, Qi Qingfei stood behind and looked at Su Yan's back. She was fifteen years old. If the mother is in Beijing, they should give themselves and hairpin flowers, like the second sister, to see which family is excellent, and make a hundred-year appointment. But no one was there, and when I went back yesterday, I was taught a good lesson by the eldest sister, saying that I was not allowed to interact with Brother Su anymore. Even Brother Su himself doesn't care about the grievances and grievances of the previous generation, why does the Qi family care instead?

She had some worries again, these days, Brother Su has not done anything else, and he is dedicated to investigating the case. But if it is clear that what happened back then is really inseparable from his father, he can not care at all?

"Qingfei"? When Su Kai came out, he saw Qi Qingfei standing under the eaves with his head down, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but his face was not the transparent smile he used to be. This carefree girl he knew when he met him, now he has learned to worry. Have you been with yourself for a long time?

"Huh"? Qi Qingfei heard Su Kai shouting, and looked up to see that Brother Su had already changed his clothes and came out of the back room, obviously to take himself out, and instantly forgot about those unhappy things, pinched his sword and rushed to Su Kai and said, "Brother Su doesn't read those books." ”

Su Kai could see the tips of several trees in the courtyard next door, and there was one of his favorite peaches when he was a child. The Song family is a scholar, and the elders in the family don't like these melons and fruits. Only the mother indulged a few children and secretly left a few plants in the middle of nowhere. When the season came, he and his eldest brother Song Yan often avoided their grandfather and climbed a tree to steal food.

"If you don't look at it, we don't want to watch it, let's go out for a walk." Su Kai knew that Qingfei liked to ride horses. The six arts of a gentleman, he also understands. Although it is far inferior to Xue Ling, there is no chaos in the official outside the city, and the two have been there a few times.

Qi Qingfei's sword never left her body, and she moved away from the Qi family, and she never saw the third sister again. But I often think that since Brother Su is not far away from him, when he sees the third sister, he just needs to tell her well, whether she will be the same as before, maybe she will continue to teach herself swordsmanship. When Brother Su's family is rehabilitated, maybe the general sister of the Shen family will be even more entangled.

I have to be a general myself, so that I can compare to her.

The two did not ride together, but each carried the reins on the road, and let the horses go on at will. Qi Qingfei looked into the distance and felt strange. When she was with her third sister, she wanted the horse to run faster, and she wanted to blink an eye to the sky. But go all the way with Brother Su. I wish the horse had been standing still. People sit on it, the scenery on both sides crosses their eyes, and next to them is the man they like, there is nothing better in the world.

But Su Kai remembered something else, he sat on the horse, and decided to take a good walk in the afternoon. But there is silence outside the city, and when people are quiet, they don't listen to the call to think about the things that bother them. He had already found that there was a contradiction in the evidence, and if, if there was another personal witness, was it more likely that the emperor would be able to re-examine the matter? He looked at Qi Qingfei beside him, muttering and not knowing how to open his mouth.

Qi Qingfei said strangely: "What is Brother Su looking at me like this?" ”

"Qingfei?"

"Huh?"

"Do you really want to help me find out what happened?"

"Of course I do." The girl pulled the reins and stopped the horse for a moment. looked at Su Yan seriously and said: "Not only do I want to, I also hope that Brother Su will find out tomorrow, and then I will go to the military camp to report my name, and when I become a general, the emperor will naturally help me get married." She danced with her sword in her hand, and said these things that should not have been said by the boudoir girl without scruples.

"Liang has never had a female general."

"It's going to be in the future, don't you believe I can be a general?"

"It's not. It's just me ........"

"Then it doesn't matter, you can investigate the case yourself, and I will be able to become a general sooner or later." Qi Qingfei kicked the horse's stomach lightly, urging the horse to go, and decided not to wait for the third sister, and to worship another master when he went back.

"Qingfei." Su Yan let the two horses get closer, and solemnly pulled Qi Qingfei's sleeve. What he wanted to say was a little hard to say.

Qi Qingfei watched Su Yan's well-defined hand fall on his clothes, and instantly looked away, not daring to look more. She is not more defensive than the men and women of several sisters in the family, so she can't accept such an intimate act, otherwise she would have ridden a horse with Su Kai a long time ago.

"Huh?"

"Qingfei, I have found some doubts in the case file."

"Really?" Qi Qingfei instantly forgot the shyness, looked at Su Yan in surprise, and said: Then when will Brother Su tell the emperor? ”

"I'm afraid that's not enough, I think ......."

"What do you want to do, tell me."

The girl's face was too innocent, and Su Yan suddenly felt that she had tarnished this friendship. He didn't dare to look directly into Qi Qingfei's eyes, but he still asked that sentence.

"Can you, can you let your eldest sister testify that the matter of Princess Sanssouci was framed by someone in the court?"

The sky and clouds and shadows all faded in an instant, and the smile on Qi Qingfei's face gradually froze on her face as she understood these words. She didn't answer Su Yan's question, and asked instead: "If it's not that my father can't speak, then does Brother Su want people to send my father to prison to extract a confession?" ”

She didn't know about the court, and she had only heard about the troupe invited by the house. Anyone who makes a mistake will be thrown into prison. If you don't tell the truth, you will be tortured. At first, she thought that she had killed someone with the rabbit given by her third sister, and she dreamed that she was whipped with a whip all night.

But that fear is not as good as what happens at the moment.

Su Yan hurriedly explained: "I won't, I will intercede for Lord Qi, he must be confused for a while." What's more, if you and your eldest sister don't know, the emperor won't blame you. ”

"What if my dad wasn't stupid for a while, and he was a bad guy?"

"Qingfei ......."

Qi Qingfei turned his horse back, pinched the horse's belly, and chased after Su Yan despite him. She just wanted to go back to King Chen's mansion as soon as possible and ask her eldest sister to go back to her hometown with her. There is no place in Beijing that is worth staying for the family. And Brother Su....... Brother Su is very obsessed with Xue Song, whether he wants to or not, he will overturn the case.

Perhaps, maybe someone will be sent to force the eldest sister to testify against her own father.

She burst into tears, she once thought that Brother Su could not care about this matter. It turned out that in the end, it wasn't the turn of others not to care, but she couldn't care.

Su Kai finally failed to catch up with Qi Qingfei, and the two of them were not far out of the city, and after entering the city, they were not allowed to travel too fast. Su Yan had some scruples, but Qi Qingfei in front of him didn't realize it, so naturally he didn't catch up.

He led the horse back to the bazaar, thinking that it didn't matter. This matter is difficult, no wonder Qingfei is difficult to accept for a while, but she understands the righteousness, maybe she will figure it out in a few days, and Xue Ling will have already appeared by then. Gathering human and physical evidence, and Princess Chen's confession, the affairs of Xue Song's family will inevitably be investigated again.

What Su Kai didn't know was that he had never spoken a word with Qi Qingfei in this life, and seeing each other was a thin life.
