Chapter 176: What do you think?
The sky has gradually brightened, maybe it is because he has taken too long a nap, Chen Wangshu is still in good spirits.
The fire in the brazier was burning vigorously, and the millet porridge that had just come out of the pot was already placed on the table, steaming, which made people feel a sense of happiness.
"Girl, everything has been dealt with, the snow outside has stopped, do you want to catch a bird today? At this time, the finches are all good, sprinkle a handful of grain, and you can catch it. ”
Treading Yun, who was nesting at Chen Wangshu's feet, was startled by this babbling sound, and raised his little head, and when he saw that it was the stupid second sister who disturbed his sleep, her head was crooked, and she fell asleep again.
Hibiscus widened his eyes and pointed at the clouds, "Girl! Do you see? This cat has become a sperm, and it despises me no matter how I look at it! It's not a finch that I think is silly, it's me! ”
Chen Wangshu looked at her jumping appearance and smiled, "You think so, that's it!" ”
Mu Hibiscus pouted and looked at Chen Wangshu in disbelief, "Even the girl, you are making fun of me!" When I catch the finch, I won't wake up, and she doesn't want to play when she steps on the clouds! ”
Chen Wangshu waved his hand, "Go and go!" ”
As soon as she left, the room was quiet again.
Chen Wangshu took the meatloaf handed over by Yan Jue, took a bite, and squinted his eyes.
"Yan Jue, what do you think?"
Yan Jue arched his hand and pretended to say, "My lord, Yuan Fang thinks that eight out of ten sentences are true, and two are false!" ”
Chen Wangshu touched his beard, lowered his throat, and straightened his stomach, "Which sentence is true?" Which sentence is false? ”
Yan Jue was amused by her, laughed for a long time, and then straightened up and looked out of the door.
Bai Porcelain stood far away in the courtyard, directing the little girl to sweep the snow in full swing.
Unless the cat is really a spirit, no one can hear their conversation.
"King Ping has long had a heart of disobedience, and he formed a party and ran a private business everywhere in the capital, and planted eyeliner. They discovered Hu Guogong's true identity and installed Wu Hongshuang to go to Hu Guogong's side, first, to monitor, and second, to woo him. ”
Yan Jue said, his expression became cold, "The previous ones, eight or nine are not far from ten, they are all true." But Hu Guogong's position, the mother-in-law said vaguely, and it may not be true. ”
"There are two possibilities here. First, since Hu Guogong was born in a famous family and is indeed very talented, he may not be willing to live in a corner and be a shadow in the dark. Or if there are other entanglements of interests in this, it is entirely possible that the Duke of Hu Guo killed his wife and voted for King Ping. ”
"This can explain why Wu Hongshuang immediately went to the mountain after my mother died; Why did he go to the city of Tokyo, but he didn't give the defense map of the sixteen states to the official family through your father; ”
"That's why, after my mother died, the imperial court no longer had the intention of going north, because there were ghosts in the emperor's camp. is why, for so many years, he has allowed others to learn from me, but he has ignored me! ”
Yan Jue said, with anger in his voice.
Chen Wangshu gave him a chopstick and a small pickle, "Then why did he give us the key?" My grandfather is dead, and there is no one to know about it......"
Yan Jue shook his head, "You are Chen Wangshu, so you know that there is no one in the know, but he may not know, because the entire people in Lin'an City know that the entire Chen family, only you, are raised under your grandfather's knees, and you are very likely to know all his secrets." ”
"If Duke Hu Guo knew the location of the Xuanmen early on, he would even suspect that your grandfather passed on the method of calculation of the Xuanmen to you. Then you must know the existence of the two keys. If he doesn't show it, won't it be suspicious? ”
"That explains why he didn't give me the key, but gave it to you!"
Chen Wangshu thought about it, this statement was irrefutable.
Yan Jue said, rolling up his sleeves, "Do you remember what Mu Qingshan said about the bloodline?" And let's ask him, how do the people of Xuanmen recognize each other? He said there was some kind of secret method that he didn't know about. ”
"We are descendants of the Xuanmen, and we have not been attacked in any way, except for the illusion that tests our hearts. Then it may not be impossible, the people next to you go in alone and see a different world. ”
Chen Wangshu saw that Yan Jue was more and more determined the more he spoke, and hurriedly interrupted: "According to what you said, Hu Guogong specially asked us to go to Muxi and retrieve those parchment rolls. But why? We followed the trajectory he set, didn't we follow it step by step, and discovered the fact that he might have betrayed the emperor a long time ago, and even killed your mother? ”
"What's in it for him?"
Yan Jue stretched out two fingers, "Mama Xi said, there are two secret treasure vaults. Among them, when my aunt was still there, the treasure vault was hidden by her with the secret method of Xuanmen, and ordinary people couldn't find it. ”
"Key ......" Yan Jue paused, and Chen Wangshu understood.
The key should be the black and white jade ring left to him by Yan Jue's mother, which is why he has been constantly assassinated since he was a child. Some people, like Mama Xi, don't dare to mention the old things anymore.
No longer covet enough wealth to support the Northern Expedition.
The people in the palace have never given up at all.
"Where do you think my mother might have hid something? I guess the clue is probably hidden in the parchment rolls we brought back. Ordinary people can't understand it, but he thinks that you are the successor of Xuanmen. ”
Yan Jue said, lowering his eyes, "He just has to wait, let's find it, and then the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch will follow." ”
Chen Wangshu hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head, "You also said, this is just a situation." Unless Hu Guogong becomes the emperor himself, the official family has no official title and no gold to reward! What was the use of the treasure he wanted? ”
"It's really just the first possibility. The second possibility is that Mama Xi didn't lie, Wu Hongshuang did deceive Duke Hu Guogong before, and only then did she become his stepfamily. He secretly investigated, discovered her true identity, and secretly told the emperor. ”
"The first emperor ordered him to plan and calculate, and wanted to find out the handle of King Ping's rebellion. It is a pity that in the last few years of the reign of the first emperor, disasters continued, and the court was in an eventful autumn. ”
"Before the emperor could free his hand, the Northern Qi Dynasty called. Seeing that the country was ruined, where could he still take care of hiding his identity, he went directly to King Qin in Tokyo. As a result, it is already difficult to ride a tiger. ”
Chen Wangshu nodded, they had never seen Hu Guogong. can't favor Yan Jue because he is Yan Jue's father and a hero; It shouldn't be that he ignores Yan Jue and never mentions his original wife, thinking that he is a heinous person.
"And one thing, one thing, is certain, your mother's death must have involved a big secret. When I heard this, I panicked. Later, he even blew himself up, something that he didn't have to say. ”
"This shows that the matter here is more fearful than her confession to the Queen Mother."
