Chapter 223: Five Places
Xiao Shaobei and Rong Che had already gone to Northern Xinjiang a month ago, Ji Yanning didn't know if Li Xiaoyun was still staring at the original Chang'an theft, but she had already asked Yuan Jiaojiao to take it, and now Yuan Jiaojiao, the mansion of many people in Chang'an City, is already very familiar, and what should be stolen is almost stolen, so naturally she will not commit any more crimes to leave other clues for Li Xiaoyun.
The things that Ji Yanning arranged for He Chengyi before leaving have also been investigated.
She came to the Ji Mansion, and Shopkeeper He was already waiting.
He saw Ji Yanning, stepped forward and saluted, "Miss." ”
Ji Yanning bowed his head, and then asked him to follow him to the study.
"Have you found out where the bones are buried?" Ji Yanning looked up at Shopkeeper He and asked.
Shopkeeper He took out a piece of paper from his cuff, stepped forward and handed it to Ji Yanning, and said, "This is from that Mama Lai's mouth." ”
Ji Yanning took the letter, unfolded it, looked at it carefully, and frowned.
These five places are located in the Lindu of the Northern Yan Kingdom, Liangzhou to the west of Chang'an, Miao Village in the southwest, Laizhou to the East China Sea, and Huguo Temple in Chang'an.
"Sure?" Ji Yanning raised his eyebrows.
Shopkeeper He said: "This is indeed what she admitted herself, and she only said it after using poison, so there should be no fake." The subordinates also feel that it is indeed difficult for these places to ask for certificates. ”
Ji Yanning looked at the five places written on the piece of paper, her eyes were filled with coldness, Su Ningxue hated herself to the bone, not to mention these five places, even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I was afraid that she would consider it.
She tucked the paper into her sleeve, turned her head and asked, "What about her?
Shopkeeper He said: "According to the instructions of the eldest lady, after asking the matter clearly, it was resolved, and it was directly put into a Zhuangzi under the name of the four princes, and let Su Guifei's people have already investigated, they will only think that it is the hands and feet of the four princes." ”
Ji Yanning bowed slightly, and there was no ripple on his face.
Green Branch is Su Ningxue's confidant, so naturally she can't be left.
If someone disappeared for no reason, Su Ningxue would definitely send someone out to investigate, and the best way was to lead the target to her nemesis.
Su Guifei and Concubine Xian have been fighting for many years, the two princes look kind, but in fact, they are secretly more energetic, but they are afraid that if the green branch dies, Su Guifei will only think that this is Concubine Xian's idea, and Concubine Xian will feel that this is a game that Su Ningxue deliberately framed her.
How could such a suspicious two parties still think that this was someone else's hand?
Ji Yanning bowed his head and asked again, "Is there any other news over there in Shaobei?"
He Guan said: "Except for the content of the military report that was passed on to the eldest lady before, there is nothing special about the others, Ding Zhen is quite peaceful, and he didn't trouble the Hou Ye." ”
At the mention of Ding Zhen, Ji Yanning's eyes became a little colder.
This man is as damned as his words.
"Does the eldest lady need the Hou Ye to send someone to Lindu?" It can be seen that the eldest lady is very concerned about this Ying Caiwei's bones, and he guesses that she should not just leave it alone.
Ji Yanning said: "There is no need for the time being, he only needs to deal with Yan Bing with peace of mind now." ”
She didn't want Xiao Shaobei to be distracted by such a thing.
Shopkeeper He was about to retreat, but suddenly Ji Yanning stopped him.
"By the way, who is the reigning emperor of the Yan Kingdom now?" asked Ji Yanning.
Shopkeeper He was slightly stunned, and then replied: "Miss Hui, it's Beigong Chen." ”
Ji Yanning's figure was stunned, and he was surprised: "Beigong Chen, is it the Beigong Chen who once came to Chang'an to be a proton?"
Shopkeeper He nodded and said, "Exactly." ”
Ji Yanning was a little incredulous, he actually became the emperor of Dayan, and then lowered his head and chuckled, he should be happy for him.
He shopkeeper said: "Beigong Chen only has three sons under his knees, each of them is not a fuel-efficient lamp, in order to seize the throne is a strange move, this time the plan to lead the troops to our Great Wei is the second prince Beigong Han, I heard that this person is familiar with the art of war, and has his own set of opinions on the way of using soldiers. If he can capture several cities in the Great Wei, I am afraid that there will be no fewer people in the Great Yan Dynasty who support him. ”
Ji Yanning looked deep, she had been in contact with this Beigong Han, and she did have some ability.
She said, "I see." Thank you Mr. He. ”
"I can't thank the eldest lady, this is a matter of subordinatery. ”
Shopkeeper He saluted, then retired, and turned back to Zuixiang Building.
Ji Yanning looked at the news from the Dingbei Hou Mansion again, and she was thinking about whether she should go to Yan Kingdom.
One is to retrieve his bones, and the other is to help Xiao Shaobei deal with Ding Zhen and Yan Bing.
It's just that this matter has to be considered in the long run.
The closest bones to him are in the Gokokuji Temple.
Where exactly to put it, Lu Zhi himself doesn't know, but now that Lu Zhi has just died, if he rashly goes to Huguo Temple to find the bones, it is very likely to alarm Su Ningxue, and if he is not careful, he may be found out of his identity.
Anyway, Huguo Temple is in Chang'an, but it is not in a hurry at this time.
But the other four are a nuisance.
In order to make her never be able to live forever, Su Ningxue really put a lot of thought into it.
As soon as she thought of this, the hatred in Ji Yanning's eyes burst out, she would definitely make Su Ningxue pay the price!
Coming out of Ji's mansion, Ji Yanning's carriage headed towards Guo's mansion.
Bao Chang Ji has now integrated into a lot of business names, and there are things to discuss with Guo Qichun, but the post she handed over was for Guo Xinyue.
Before Guo Qichun returned to Guo's mansion, she was pulled by Guo Xinyue to the back garden to complain.
The scenery in the back garden of Guo's mansion is good, it is already summer, the weather is hot, Guo Xinyue took Ji Yanning to the pavilion in the center of the lake.
The breeze blows, but people feel a lot of cool breath, and the lotus flowers blooming in this lake have a unique style.
"You don't know, my father is worried about how to put off this marriage. Guo Xinyue sighed, "But the emperor gave marriage, how dare ordinary eunuch families disobey." ”
Don't say that the third prince is a mute, even if he is terminally ill, how can ordinary people dare to say a word?
Ji Yanning sat on the railing next to Guo Xinyue, looked at her and asked, "What about you, do you also think that the third prince is not good?"
Guo Xinyue frowned and thought for a while, and said: "The third prince is very good, I actually don't mind if he is dumb or not, but my father and mother seem to care, I know that they are thinking about me, but I don't know how to tell them about it, I want them to stop worrying." ”
The third prince is a prince and has a noble status, the Guo family can't throw his face at him and tell him that the Guo family doesn't want to marry their daughter to him, right?
Ji Yanning said: "Since you don't care about his dumb illness and have a good impression of him, that's enough." You can tell your father that he doesn't have to worry about it, and that he will understand. ”
Guo Xinyue sighed again and said, "How can things be so simple. ”
She looked down at the fish swimming around in the lake, and inexplicably thought of the day she chose the concubine, maybe it was because she said she didn't mind, so the third prince chose her?
Ji Yanning looked at her with a worried look on her face, frowned, and said, "What else is going on?"
"I think the third prince likes someone else. Guo Xinyue buried her head and whispered.
She still trusts Ji Yanning very much, and she hasn't told her father and mother about it.
Ji Yanning was slightly stunned: "Who is it?"
"Murong Yixue. Guo Xinyue said, "Last time, Murong Yixue came to me and asked me to withdraw from the third prince, saying that she and the third prince were in love. Then I said, since you are in love, why don't you let the third prince go to withdraw from his relatives by himself, but Murong Yixue got angry and said I am shameless, I have to break them up. ”
Ji Yanning only felt funny: "Do you believe what she said?"
"I don't believe it. Guo Xinyue said, "But it's really possible to think about it." ”
Ji Yanning couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "You brain! I usually see that you are very smart, why did you make a mistake at this time!"
"Murong Yixue is really infatuated with the three princes, why are the three princes not moved?" Guo Xinyue was puzzled.
Ji Yanning said: "It's like a flower, people in the distance can only see her beauty, but people near can smell the stench emitted by it, so people in the distance praise this flower, but people near avoid it." Maybe these three princes are too close and can see too clearly, so they know what kind of person she is. ”
When Guo Xinyue heard Ji Yanning's analogy, she chuckled lightly, and her mood was much better.
Ji Yanning said again: "What's more, Murong Yixue herself still has a marriage contract with the second prince, and she has no time to take care of herself." ”
Guo Xinyue nodded, she just wanted to complain, Murong Yixue has been targeting her recently, trying to make herself ugly, she is so depressed.
She snorted softly: "I can't afford to mess with her, I can still afford to hide." ”
Ji Yanning said: "If you really want to know if the third prince likes someone else, you can ask him yourself, it's better than guessing." ”
When Ji Yanning said this, Guo Xinyue's face flushed, and said, "How can I be embarrassed to ask about such a thing!"
Although she has a temperament on weekdays, she will not do such a thing, because it is really difficult to speak.
Ji Yanning looked at her like this, and smiled even deeper, only thinking that the third prince's vision was good.
The two of them chatted for more than half an hour, and a maid finally walked into the pavilion slowly, stepped forward and saluted, "Miss, the master is back." ”
"Got it. Guo Xinyue responded to the maid, and then turned to Ji Yan and said, "I'll take you to find your father." ”
Ji Yanning bowed his head and followed Guo Xinyue towards the study room in the main courtyard of the mansion.
Knowing that Ji Yanning and his father had important things to discuss, Guo Xinyue did not disturb them and did not follow Ji Yanning into the study.
