"Peeking into the palace?" Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, pulled Shen Haolin back and sat down, "It's to spy on the palace, right?" ”

"Whether it's peeping or surveillance, there's no difference, it's just a different statement." Qing Yuanhui put away the portrait, put it in the small wooden box, and put the small wooden box on the small coffee table beside Shen Haolin. "After the prince opened the mansion, there were a lot of people stuffing people into the mansion in various names, and a batch of them was cleaned up, and there will be a new batch coming in, and the means are getting more and more sophisticated, and it is becoming more and more difficult to be detected. Those who peeped into the palace had some kung fu on their bodies, and they were not so easily caught, and it took us some time to catch their little tails. After these guys were arrested, some confessed to the mastermind behind the scenes, and some gritted their teeth and didn't say a word. It's the same sentence, it doesn't matter if you say it or not, some of it was taken by people who opposed the prince, and a small part of it was a foreign work. But what surprised us was that there were people from Chifu in it. ”

"Have you ever asked in person?" Bai Meng looked at His Royal Highness King Ning, and then at Qing Yuanhui, "Ask Elder Chi Ge why he sent someone to monitor the palace." ”

"Yes." Qing Yuanhui nodded, "I said that I was worried about the safety of the prince, after all, there are so many people with ulterior motives in the palace, if something happens, you can also take a hand in time." ”

“…… Do you believe that? Bai Meng looked at these two people with disgust, "If you tell the ghost, the ghost won't believe it, right?" ”

"Commander, who hasn't had a time when he was young and ignorant and deceived, right?" Qing Yuanhui shrugged, "Old man Chi was the prince's husband at the time, and he cared much more about the prince than Chi Hong. He looked at everyone and smiled helplessly, "You have all seen what kind of attitude Chi Hong has towards the prince, he has always thought that it was our prince who robbed his father and robbed him of the care that his father should have." ”

"It can be seen that if the true face of Chi Ge Lao has not been exposed, I can accept his statement." Bai Meng nodded, he looked at Qing Yuanhui very seriously, "Wait a minute, I had a question I wanted to ask you just now." In King Ning's Mansion, or in front of His Royal Highness King Ning, what kind of existence are you? ”

"Staff, doormen!" Qing Yuanhui smiled at Bai Meng, "Does the Grand Commander suspect that I have ill intentions towards the prince?" ”

"Not really." Bai Meng denied it, "We just don't know the relationship between the eldest young master and the prince, and we are just curious about the eldest young master speaking on behalf of the prince." I apologize if there is offense. ”

"Xiaohui is my hole card, many people don't know it, they think he is just closer to the two royal brothers, and the relationship is better."

"I also have a good relationship with Wu Wangfu." Qing Yuanhui bared his teeth, "And King Wu ......" He looked at His Royal Highness King Ning, "and only listen to you." ”

"Only these seemingly incompatible relationships can make some people in the dark relax their vigilance and lower their vigilance."

"What the prince said is that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, we have to spend more effort to deal with them in order to walk in front of them, otherwise we will ......" Qing Yuanhui sighed heavily, "I can only be led by the nose, that feeling is very unpleasant, I don't want to experience it again." ”

Shen Cha and Shen Haolin glanced at each other, they agreed with Qing Yuanhui's statement, seriously speaking, their current situation is definitely better than more than ten years ago, but the situation is still very grim, and they are not sure that before the truth comes out, what accidents will happen, and whether they will fall into the trap of the other party, prudence and caution are the only things they can do.

"This ......" Shen Cha patted the small wooden box, "We will take a good look at it, now back to the question we had at the beginning, the evidence of the Chi family's smuggling of salt and iron, I heard that the eldest prince witnessed it with his own eyes, so he refused to associate with the second young master of the Chi family again." ”

"Xiao Kan said that, right?" Qing Yuanhui smiled and poured hot tea for everyone in the room, "That's right, I saw it with my own eyes." ”

"What do you see?"

"That's right, we didn't have much contact with the Chi family at the beginning, but Old Man Chi left the relationship between the prince and King Wu, saying that Chi Er wanted to learn to do business. Our Daxia did not explicitly prohibit officials from doing business, and Chi Er was nominal, dispensable, and he didn't usually go to the yamen, so the acting prince and King Wu opened one eye and closed one eye, so they acquiesced and let Chi Er come to me. As for me, for the sake of the face of the two princes, I agreed. Later, I also told our prince in advance, and the prince said that since the Chi family had Chi Hong, Chi Da and Chi Er's life was not very good, and since he wanted to do business, he would help him. ”

"That's right, that's what I said." His Royal Highness King Ning nodded, "But after bringing it twice, Xiaohui said that Chi Er is not very honest, on the surface he is doing business, but in fact, he is doing the business of smuggling salt and iron, he saw that Chi Hong secretly hid a lot of salt in the carriage that he said was silk, and the guards of the Chi family, everyone carried more than three big knives in their carry-on luggage. ”

"The Chi family's entourage? Is there a lot of people? ”

"There were less than twenty of them, and it was because there were so few of them that it was strange to be wearing so many weapons. And the stealing of salt in the carriage where the silk was placed is what I saw with my own eyes. It was supposed to go undetected, but his guard missed, broke a bag, and the salt in the bag leaked out. ”

"Hasn't the eldest prince been discovered?"

"No, I'm hiding in the shadows, they can't see it. Moreover, because of Chi Er's weak heart, he chose to do this kind of thing in the dead of night, if it wasn't for the fact that I drank too much water before going to bed that day, it was convenient to get up, and when I heard the movement in the yard, I thought that some thief was coming, so I went over to take a look, and I couldn't see such a wonderful scene at all. ”

"When Xiaohui came back to tell me, I didn't believe it very much, Chi Er is not as honest as his eldest brother, but he will not do this kind of law-breaking deed. I said, what if someone framed you, right? At that time, Xiaohui only saw it, and did not investigate deeply, I think it is necessary to be cautious, and must investigate clearly, so as not to wish for a good person. ”

"It's a pity that we didn't wait for the results of the investigation, and the prince was sent to the imperial tomb for confinement." Qing Yuanhui patted His Royal Highness King Ning, "Fortunately, everything is still in time, and those who have done bad things will get their due retribution sooner or later." ”

His Royal Highness King Ning didn't speak, he looked at the small wooden box on the table and sighed faintly, he didn't feel very good recently, he always felt that it was still very deep, and there were still many things they didn't know, at the same time, he vaguely felt the danger, and this danger seemed to be around.

He looked at the few people who were chatting happily, and decided not to tell them about this feeling for the time being, and to see what happened before deciding, so as not to worry the children who cared about him.
