The capital ushered in a sunny day again, the people got up early in the dark, and the sun was already shining on the way home, because they would always sit on the tea stall because they were hot and thirsty... Last night, there was a lot of traffic in front of the Yi'an Palace, and the princess held a women's banquet has spread, and everyone is talking about it, but this discussion has not been hot for long, and I heard someone say what they saw in the morning!

"Early in the morning, I passed by the Shen Mansion and saw that the secretary of the military department, Lord Shen, was so angry that he dragged the weak little boy to the palace in a hurry!"

"Young Master Shen is weak, let alone let him enter the barracks, Lord Shen is afraid that he has never let him hold a sword! Baby! What's going on? ”

"Who knows! I saw that the little boy was crying and crying, like a frightened bird, Lord Shen didn't say a word, picked him up and threw him into the carriage! ”

"Yo! Something must have happened!! ”

"Who's to say it isn't!"

"What can the little boy do?! Why did you bring it into the palace?! ”

"It must be that he's usually too precious, the little boy doesn't understand anything, but it's not going to be a big deal!!"

"That's right! So, no matter how expensive the child is, he can't always have fun in the nest, he has to see more people and things!! ”

"Hey... Anyway, our children don't have such a good life, no, they are only eleven years old, so they follow me to pull goods and work to supplement the family! ”

"If you come out to see the world at such a young age, you will definitely have a future in the future!"

"Oops! I lend you good words!! ”

Imperial Palace Xuxiong Hall.

When the courtiers saw Shen Shangshu holding the crying little boy and kowtowing vigorously, they didn't dare to make a sound for a while! The hall was quiet!!

Emperor: "Shen Aiqing, why is this?" ”

Shen Xionghao had a hopeless expression and pleaded, "Your Majesty is gracious!" The dog has no form, and the way of the fox spirit!! ”

The emperor was even more puzzled by Shen Shangshu's headless and brainless words: "What fox spirit? ”

Shen Xionghao took out a roll of parchment from his bosom and respectfully presented it: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the house was robbed, and the thief is the lover of the dog!" Last night, Weichen found that there were traces of intrusion in the secret room of the study, but fortunately it was found in time, and the important documents were not touched!! This is the previous Gyeonggi defense map, Wechen left a heart, put a fake defense map, the real defense map is hidden elsewhere, and the thief took away the fake one! ”

The prince stood aside, and when he heard the Gyeonggi defense, he inevitably paid a little more attention!

Gonggong Liu took the sheepskin cloth map and presented it to the emperor, and the emperor opened it and looked at it, it was indeed the real one.

"Wu Zhao!" The emperor's tone was cold, "Take Xiao Gongzi Shen down!" Interrogate well!! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wu Zhao, the secretary of the Criminal Department, responded.

"Your Majesty, please be gracious!!" Shen Xionghao begged, "Although this matter started from a dog!" But he was also fascinated!! Wechen is just this one son! It's still a..."He said bitterly, "It's still a dou who can't be helped!" Dogs have always been innocent! There must be a secret behind this matter!! ”

The Gyeonggi defense map was stolen, and Shen Xiaogongzi was somewhat suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason! If you go to prison this time, you have to get rid of half your life!!

Speaking of the Gyeonggi defense map, the emperor first frowned and looked at Yuan Shangshu, who was standing with his head down and no waves on his face, and thought for a while, before retracting his gaze and looking at the little boy, Shen Xiaogongzi He had heard a little, because he was weak since he was a child, Shen Shangshu, a father, loved him very much, and Shen Shangshu, who was originally a general, was willing to give up his military power in order to take care of his son, and became a civilian official of the military department... For Shen Shangshu, his son is more important than military power, and he also wants to exchange this for the peace of the Shen family...

"Petty... Where are you... Why did you leave me? Shen Xiaogongzi was always immersed in his emotions, muttering to himself, as he spoke, he wiped off a handful of snot and tears, and rubbed the surroundings of his eyes red!

“... Shen Aiqing was relieved. The emperor's tone softened slightly, "It's just a routine interrogation, and it won't hurt the little boy." This is not only for Shen Shangshu, but also for Wu Zhao, which means that no matter how much he interrogates, he will have to spare the life of the little boy!

"......" Shen Shangshu beat a drum in his heart, banging! If you wait to be discovered, you can't argue! Spontaneously plead guilty, maybe there is a glimmer of life... But he was also worried that his weak son would not be able to withstand the interrogation at all, and in order to avoid suspicion, he had rarely moved around with other Shangshu in the past few days, and he was even more bottomless in his heart!

Seeing this, the prince pondered for a moment and asked: "Father, since it is related to the defense of Gyeonggi, it is better for Shen Xiaogongzi to be interrogated by his son!" ”

When Shen Shangshu heard this, Baba looked at the prince, the prince has a soft temperament, everyone can see it, it is much better than handing it over to the prison of the Criminal Department!

The emperor thought of yesterday's report from King Yi'an, as well as the old defense that had not been clarified, and it might be better to hand it over to the prince to investigate, so he agreed!

In the afternoon, Yi'an Palace.

Traveling indifferently, Qiming, who was alone, buried himself in the official document, calming the sense of uneasiness that had been spreading faintly since last night in his heart... After receiving Lu Qi's message and learning about Shen Xiaogongzi's matter, he immediately sent Qiansu Xun to reply to Yan Mo.

Because last night there was an official lady who said that she had met a tall man in a silk shop a few days ago, Yan Mo led a team of guards out to investigate, and there was a special contact method between the guards, and Qiansu quickly found Yan Mo and his party according to the mark!

After Yan Mo returned home, he first poured a pot of Wenxian black tea made by King Yi'an himself... At the same time, I listened to the fox talk about Shen Xiaogongzi...

Qi Ming is of course very confident in his tea-making skills! Seeing this, he swept away the worries in his heart and smiled: "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Yan Mo let out a breath of satisfaction: "It seems that the target of this incident is not only the official lady, but also the official son!" Although Li Han has not been found yet... However, no matter how powerful this Li Gongzi is, it is impossible to pretend to be a woman to seduce people, right?! ”

Qi Ming lowered his eyes and smiled, and continued: "Although the stolen defense map is fake, this incident confirms my worries, Li Han approached the official lady, and the purpose is not pure!" Now it seems that not only Li Han, but also a female servant! ”

"Hmm." Yan Mo nodded, and said concisely, "Take me to meet Shen Xiaogongzi." ”

An hour later, Mama Yin entered the palace with two palace maids: "The new palace maids don't have a waist card yet, this is a common document." ”

After reading the paperwork, the palace gate guard let him go.

In addition to Yan Mo, there is also a fool who disguises himself as an accompanying palace maid!

It's really hard to dress up as a woman for him, and under the persuasion of Yan Mo - for example, the opportunity is rare to experience the woman's clothing, the woman's movements, and the woman's thoughts, and accumulate materials for the album... He barely put on women's clothes under the fiddling of bamboo water... In fact, he didn't remember how he got dressed or how he came to the palace, because the bamboo water's slender eyelashes and extremely close face occupied his entire mind, and he couldn't get rid of it! As a result, the current "she" has been giggling, and she doesn't look like a clever palace maid...

When the prince waited in the East Palace for a long time, he specially asked Bai Xue to gather all the palace people in the outer courtyard and pretend to lecture! Waiting left and right, I finally saw the palace maid of Yan quietly falling from a corner of the palace wall! Straight to the inner courtyard!! There is another sturdy palace maid in her hand!!

After the three of them met quietly in the house, the prince recognized the palace maid, and he looked at the palace maid inquiringly...

"Let Hanzi draw a portrait of Shen Xiaogongzi's lover, maybe it will be useful." Yan Gongnu explained.

The prince nodded in understanding, let Lan Xue guard, and led Yan Mo and his two siblings to prepare to go to the depths of the house... Suddenly, I thought that Hanzi, the ugly palace maid, was too distinctive, and let Lu Qi in the dark come out, and moved a screen in first!

A moment later, through a gauze screen, the crown prince sat in a high position, and two palace maids accompanied him.

Shen Xiaogongzi finally recognized the prince's figure, and bowed resignedly.

The palace maid listened quietly and carefully, and the prince asked, "When did you meet that woman?" How did you meet? ”

"......" Shen Xiaogongzi drooped his head, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Half a month ago... In order to save the birds, she climbed a big tree outside the house... One of the trunks of that tree went right through the high wall to the yard where I lived... She accidentally fell down... I heard a noise and went out to check... I saved her, and we met..."

The prince didn't move much, raised his eyes and looked at the palace maid for a while, and continued: "What's her name?" What is the injury? ”

Shen Xiaogongzi: "Her name is Zhao Qing... Injured in the ankle, inconvenient to walk... It's me who takes care of her..."

Prince: "... Tell me about what happened last night. ”

“... Last night..."Shen Xiaogongzi recalled, suddenly excited, "No! It's not her! It must be that her father looked down on her from a humble background and deliberately framed her!! My little love won't... Xiaoqing is not that kind of person!! I've been by her bedside for days! Tag after!! ”

The prince's face was sad: "Since she is not that kind of person, why did she disappear after the accident?" ”

Shen Xiaogongzi cried and said, "It must be my father... It was her father who kicked her out... My little love... She's not healed yet..."

The prince thought to himself, Shen Shangshu would not take his son to Xuxiong Hall to ask for guilt because of a woman's deadlifting, it seems that Shen Xiaogongzi is deep in mud!

"Are you familiar with Lord Shen's study?"

Shen Xiaogongzi was silent for a moment before saying, "... Ever since I was a child, my father didn't let me get close to the study... So it's not familiar..."

The prince was silent for a while, and then looked at the palace maid...

The palace maid glanced at the sturdy palace maid with her eyes!

After the prince understood, he spoke: "What kind of appearance does Zhao Qing look like, you can talk to this palace." ”

Shen Xiaogongzi knew that the other party was still suspicious, and when he said his appearance, he might hurt Zhao Qing, and he was reluctant to speak for a while...

The prince sensed the other party's thoughts, and said in a gentle tone: "This palace believes in you, Zhao Qingxu is innocent, if there is a portrait of her, maybe we can find her as soon as possible and help her clear her name." ”

Hearing someone say that he believed in himself, Shen Xiaogongzi's eyes lit up and he was surprised: "Really?!" ”

The palace maid was slightly surprised that the prince could quickly change his words without a red heart.

Shen Xiaogongzi thought for a while and said, "She is slender, thin and slender, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and plump lips, the size of an olive... Goose egg face with a small mole on the nose..."

Hanzi took out the folded rice paper hidden on his body, took the pen and ink on the side and began to draw... After drawing a draft, the palace maid will show it to Shen Xiaogongzi, of course, he hid his body behind the screen, and covered his hands with the palace maid's sleeves! So as not to show the stuffing!! After several points and corrections from Shen Xiaogongzi, the drawing was completed.

The crown prince led the palace maid who bowed her head out of the screen and confirmed again: "Is this what it looks like?" ”

Shen Xiaogongzi nodded emphatically: "There are already seven or eight points like it!" ”

Prince: "How tall is she?" What color and style of the robe you were wearing? ”

“... The size is probably here..."Shen Xiaogongzi raised his hand and gestured to his chin, and then gestured to the palace maid in the void, "Shorter than this palace maid sister... What I wore before I saw it was... Pale green water cloud robe! ”

After a while, the prince and the two palace maids came out from the depths of the house, and the palace maids explained the matter of the women's banquet very briefly.

"Li Han is proficient in the art of disguise, and this Zhao Qing appeared at such a coincidence, I'm afraid it's not shallow... This portrait may also be just one of Zhao Qing's faces..."Yan Gong Nu stared at the weak and beautiful portrait and said softly...

The prince listened to a rough idea, because Yan Mo did not mention the details of Jiang Shishi, and he thought that he would be the eldest uncle at this time... The opportunity is rare, he stared at Yan Mo, and took a good look at the dress of the palace maid, the pink skirt and the cute double bun have a fresh charm on the other party...

The palace maid frowned, lowered her head and pondered: "Next, I have to look at the scene of the crime, and..." Therefore, she unconsciously replied with a bright smile, it seems that Brother Jin has been recuperating well recently!

Lan Xue was guarding the door, and when she saw this scene, she smiled at a young age!

Staring - the boy with the same double bun slowly tilted his head... His eyes rolled, and he took turns looking at the two people in front of him...

Sensing the gaze of the third person, the palace maid came back to her senses, blinked her eyes, glanced back at Hanzi, and said generously to the prince: "... Also, I need to ask Shen Shangshu. ”

The prince looked the palace maid up and down... Thinking about it, everyone knew that there was only one palace maid by their side, Lan Xue, and suddenly there was one more... No, it's two! Looks extremely suspicious!! He frowned at his pretty eyebrows, distressed...

Seeing this, the Han palace girl twisted her eyebrows and was puzzled for a while, thinking that I am on my brother-in-law's side! Then he nodded to himself in affirmation!!

Yan Palace Maid didn't care about others, and only focused on the incident: "Your Highness, what's wrong?" ”

Prince: "I can't take you like this to the Shen Mansion... Before, you appeared in the court dressed as a guard, Shen Shangshu should still remember... I took King Yi'an's guards to the Shen Mansion... It's not appropriate..."

Lan Xuexu glanced at the door behind her, and said with an idea: "Your Highness! This matter is handed over to the slave maid~"

In the outer courtyard of the East Palace, Bai Xue had finished his reprimand, and asked everyone to kneel in a row under the scorching sun.

The father-in-law knew that this was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's punishment, but even so, some people with flexible eyes would still keep glancing at the inner courtyard! Trying to know a little bit of a clue...

After a while, Yan Mo and Hanzi, who had changed into new clothes respectively, followed behind the prince, and when the prince stepped out of the inner courtyard, the two of them hid on both sides of the courtyard gate on the left and right, waiting for the opportunity to move!

The prince led Lan Xue out, and said with a majestic face: "Don't think that this palace doesn't know your little thoughts!" Now that you have entered the East Palace, you should understand who is the master!! I still can't figure it out when I'm kneeling, so I run around the courtyard! When do you figure it out and then rest!! ”

The fathers-in-law looked at each other for a long time before they wiped the beads of sweat from their foreheads and began to run around the outer courtyard!

Lan Xue took the opportunity to whisper a few words to Bai Xue! Bai Xue nodded clearly!!

"Hurry up! Don't be lazy!! "White Overseer went online, using his not too tall body to release powerful energy, "Don't be a drag!" ”

Whether you are kneeling or running, under the scorching sun, the physical exhaustion will always be very fast! After a while, the father-in-law gasped for breath, wiped sweat and sweat, and under the supervision of Bai Xue, they couldn't slow down too much!

Father-in-law Yan moves extremely fast! Pull the father-in-law and wait for the opportunity to cut in line! Pretend to be extremely tired and blend in!!

Running and running, naturally some people want to be lazy and pretend to be uncomfortable! Fall to the ground and can't afford it!!

So right in the snow! He called the guards outside the palace gate and took down the three or five fathers-in-law who fell to the ground first! Then, of course, batch after batch of fathers-in-law fell to the ground!! Take it away!!

The prince spoke out at the right time, pretending to be bored: "Okay! Stand down!! With that, he led the way to the palace gate, ordered two fathers-in-law who were panting with their heads down, and took Lan Xue away!

Seeing this, Bai Xue hurriedly commanded, ordered a group of fathers-in-law to sweep the palace wall, and ordered a few fathers-in-law to clean the study! The guest hall, the storeroom, the courtyard and so on are all arranged one by one! Confuse the public with this!!

The tired father-in-law faced the same costume, and couldn't tell who was who for a while, and the father-in-law and the father-in-law of the son were successfully reshuffled!!

Shen Mansion.

When Shen Shangshu heard that the prince's car arrived at the door, he hurriedly tidied up his appearance and went out to greet him!

"Weichen greets His Royal Highness the Prince!"

The prince got out of the carriage and said gently: "Your Excellency, please get up, this time you come to the palace, I think your lord knows the reason." ”

Shen Xionghao: "Your Highness asks, check!" Wechen knows everything, and there is no end to words! ”

Prince: "Take the palace to the study!" ”

Shen Xionghao led a few people to the secret room of the study, he looked at Lan Xue and the two fathers-in-law who were following the prince, and hesitated to open the secret room...

"You two go out first." The prince dismissed his father-in-law and Lan Xue, turned to Shen Shangshu and said, "Don't worry, my lord, this little father-in-law is a henchman of this palace, she is very smart and clever, and she may be able to find things that are not easy for ordinary people to notice!" ”

Father-in-law Yan shrugged his shoulders slightly, lowered his eyes and said respectfully: "The villain is not talented, and he is willing to do his best." ”

As soon as Shen Shangshu heard that he was here to help himself, he should go! By turning a few furnishings in a certain order, the secret room is opened...

Father-in-law Yan followed the prince and entered the secret room, where he found that there were still traces of the fight...

Shen Xionghao: "The way to open the secret room of the study, Weichen has been reorganized and replaced. On the third watch last night, Weichen found that there was something unusual in the study, and when he came in, he saw a masked woman rushing out with a defense map! Wechen has made a few moves with him!! ”

Father-in-law Yan carefully checked the traces on the bookshelf in the secret room, the traces were very deep, and the scratches were obvious!

Shen Shangshu leaned over and continued: "This is a sword mark!" The woman slammed into the officer's sword! A loud bang! The sword hit the bookshelf!! ”

Yan Gonggong found that in the middle of the scratch marks were the neat lines left by the blade, but there were some filigree pull marks on the edges...

Father-in-law Yan: "What the Lord said just now, that woman kicked on your sword!" Make a loud bell! ”

"......" Shen Xionghao thought after putting his hands behind him, "This person kicked away the official's sword with his bare feet!" It stands to reason that a woman shouldn't have such a strong internal force... It was too dark to see, but I suspect that the man's shoes have a special structure that helps him use his leg strength!! ”

Father-in-law Yan looked at the filigree scarry: "Maybe this is what the sole of the shoe left..."

After Shen Xionghao heard this, he squinted his eyes closer and farther away, tried a few times, and didn't seem to see the filigree pull marks clearly...

Gonggong Yan noticed Lord Shen's state and preliminarily concluded that Shen Shangshu's eyes... It's presbyopia... She didn't turn off the strange words that appeared in the alarm clock, but walked out of the secret room to find a piece of paper, and asked for a box of "rouge" from her father-in-law outside the door! She opened the "rouge" and smeared it on the traces of the bookshelf and covered it with paper! Press hard and rub the pattern down! In fact, the box of "rouge" is the painting pigment that Hanzi will carry with him.

The prince leaned over to look at the pattern: "What is this?" ”

Father-in-law Yan: "The pattern is not clear, we have to study it slowly... However, it can leave traces on the bookshelf, and the villain guesses that this person's shoes are not only specially constructed, but also have strong iron pieces embedded in the soles! ”
