"This is the daughter of Lord Wen." Cang Xuelan introduced.

"Little girl Wen Ying, I've seen the governor." Wen Ying bowed tremblingly.

Master Chen's tone softened a little, "Miss Wen doesn't need to be polite. ”

Wen Ying still didn't get up, "My father died for the country, and the little girl implored Lord Chen to bring the real culprit to justice." ”

"Miss Wen, rest assured, in the case of Master Wen, Chen will definitely do his best to investigate it personally."

"Wen Ying thanked my lord."

Governor Chen saw two empty coffins on the side, and knew that this was prepared by Cang Xuelan for the Wen family and his wife, so he said: "Bring back the bones of Lord Wen and his wife, and I will personally examine the body." ”

After he said this, several people present had different expressions.

Master Chen has made a living, cracked many difficult and big cases, and he is iron-faced and selfless, and if he personally investigates the case, this matter will definitely come to light.

When Wen Ying heard this, she was immediately relieved, but Qi Huan on the side had an elusive look on her face.

"Lord Chen," Qi Huan smiled flatteringly, "How do you think this Miss Wen should be placed?" ”

"Miss Wen is an important party in this case, and it should have been strictly protected by the Ningzhou government, but this matter is widely implicated, and this official will not pretend to be someone else's hand, so Miss Wen will live in this official mansion during this time."

"Although Lord Chen has good intentions, but after all, you live alone and are a man, and Miss Wen has not yet left the cabinet, if this matter spreads, I am afraid that your reputation or Miss Wen will be hindered." Lord Qi said while looking at Governor Chen's face, he had been dealing with this Lord Chen for many days, and he also had a certain understanding of the character of this white-faced Bao Gong.

This man's greatest weakness is his great focus on fame.

Governor Chen nodded, "Lord Qi is reasonable, it's just ......"

It seems that the governor is not completely at ease with this Ningzhou governor.

Cang Xuelan clenched her fists and said, "Can the two adults listen to me?" ”

Governor Chen: "General Cang, please speak." ”

"I have fought with the assassins who assassinated Lord Wen and his wife, these people are all masters, and ordinary yacha is afraid that they will not be able to resist it. Now that the border is safe and sound, I won't be in a hurry to go back for a while, why don't Lord Chen find a quiet courtyard and let Miss Wen live in it, and the guard work of the courtyard will be handed over to me Cang Xuelan, what do you think? ”

"General Cang has not yet married a wife, and he is still ...... Miss Wen" Lord Qi stopped when he said this, although he did not finish his words, but it made everyone present look embarrassed.

Cang Xuelan and Wen Ying, but there is still a vigorous relationship.

Cang Xuelan's father, General Cang Qingfeng, and Master Wen Zhao are close friends, and Cang Xuelan and Wen Ying are also childhood sweethearts, and the two have made a family relationship early.

However, after the battle of the border pass six years ago, Cang Xuelan fell seriously ill, and since then her temperament has changed greatly, and she actually took a woman from a green house into the mansion and gave her the title of the side room, and took a concubine before marrying a wife, which is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Wen family.

Wen Zhaoqi wrote a letter, although there was no swearing, but between the lines he still scolded Cang Xuelan for being bloody. He wrote in the letter: If Cang Xuelan is willing to drive this Qinglou woman out of the house, he will treat it as Cang Xuelan's fascination for a while, and he will not blame the past.

Unexpectedly, Cang Xuelan actually said that he was moved by his true feelings and was unwilling to part with this woman.

Wen Zhao quit the marriage in a fit of anger and never had anything to do with Cang Xuelan again.

Cang Xuelan didn't dare to look at Wen Ying, and continued: "I live next door to Miss Wen, so I won't surprise her. ”

"Miss Nawen's food, clothing, housing and transportation......"

Governor Chen said: "I will do this, and all the servants will be screened by me, and I will not let people with bad intentions get in." ”

At this point, Lord Qi didn't have much to say, so he could only smile and nod, praising Governor Chen and Cang Xuelan for their thoughtfulness.

Governor Chen's movements were fast, and the group entered the city in the morning and moved to another courtyard in the evening.

After Cang Xuelan circled the front and back of this small courtyard, he arranged his guards at various key entrances, and he himself stayed in a tavern opposite the courtyard.

The owner and lady of the tavern had long been instructed from above to empty the entire tavern of guests, and they were not allowed to move around the tavern at will, except for three meals a day.

Wei Rong inspected Cang Xuelan's room and made sure it was safe before putting Cang Xuelan's luggage inside. Cang Xuelan looked around and found that as soon as the window of his bedroom was opened, he could see the courtyard where Wen Ying was staying, and he nodded with satisfaction, "Governor Chen is really careful. ”

"Miss Wen doesn't live in a big place, but it's convenient to guard, but we still have a little less people."

"After a while, you write a letter, send someone back to Fenzhou, and transfer some more people, these days, you can only work hard for a few of us."

"Just now, Lord Qi sent two more teams to catch fast, saying that they were coming to help."

Cang Xuelan said disdainfully: "Forget it, most of these people haven't even seen blood, what can they help?" ”

"The subordinates also think so, but it's not easy to refute the face of the adults, so they will distribute these people on the periphery, and it won't get in our way."

Cang Xuelan took off the saber from her waist and put it on the table, "What do you think of this Changzhou Governor Shouqi?" ”

"Not credible."

"Oh? Let's hear it. ”

Wei Rong poured a cup of tea for Cang Xuelan, "My subordinates guessed based on your reaction, if this Lord Qi is really loyal, why did you hide the token we searched?" Why don't you want Miss Wen to live in his house? ”

Cang Xue smiled: "Not bad." Your brain is not as smart as Wang Han, but your eyes are pointed. ”

Wei Rong asked again: "Then why do you conclude that Lord Qi is not credible?" ”

"I sent someone to inform him, when did it happen?"

"I don't know exactly what the time is, but it was already halfway light."

"Yes, at that time, Lord Qi, as a state guard, should have gotten up to work a long time ago, but he was still wearing a middle coat when he came, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Wei Rong nodded, "It's really too deliberate, do you want me to check it?" ”

"No, the most important thing for us now is to protect Wen Ying and Governor Chen." Cang Xuelan took out the token of the Xuzhou Prefecture Capital, and the candlelight swayed, casting a mottled shadow on his face, "Lu Boyan should have found out that the token was lost by now, and the governor of Xuzhou doesn't know whether he is dead or alive." You go and pick two more clever people, go to Xuzhou to inquire, you don't have to reveal your identity, I just need to know whether Xuzhou is dead or alive. ”

"Do you think Governor Chen will also be poisoned?"

"They have already killed one Lord Wen, and it is not too bad to kill another Lord Chen."

Cang Xuelan immediately started writing, wrote two letters, and handed them to Wei Rong, "One is sent back to Fenzhou, one is sent to the capital, and it is handed over to the emperor. ”

"Yes."

"The emperor sent Lord Wen to check Xuzhou, probably because he had the heart to clean up Zeng Wuhou, and when the news of Lord Wen's death spread, the government and the opposition will definitely be shaken, and now the emperor and Zeng Wuhou don't want to sleep steadily."

Wei Rong received the order, and after leaving the room, Cang Xuelan vented the confidence of the young general.

He removed the fur collar around his neck, revealing a slender and slender neck.

I'm afraid this thing can't be good.

Cang Xuelan opened a small crack in the window, observing every move in the courtyard, and saw Wen Ying sitting in the courtyard, looking up at the night sky, as if looking at the moon and this small window.

Cang Xuelan closed the window and squatted down against the wall, "Brother, I'm sorry, I've tried my best, but she can't forget you." ”

In the palace, the current saint is sitting in the imperial study, and there are two letters in front of his eyes, one is written by Governor Chen, and the other is Cang Xuelan.

Both letters are saying the same thing, Wen Zhaochu is dead.

"What a Marquis of Zengwu!" The emperor gritted his teeth.

In front of the desk, there was an old minister kneeling, who was the current Prime Minister Wei Zhongshu. Prime Minister Wei Cheng sighed: "This secret visit has now been turned to the surface, what is the emperor going to do?" ”

Wen Zhaochu was brutally murdered, which means that he has found evidence, and the top priority now is to find evidence and stabilize the court. Does Wei Xiang have an idea? ”

Wei Xiang stroked his beard, "Governor Chen is an honest man, and it is precisely because of this that he is in a very disadvantageous situation now, but fortunately, General Cang is here, and he should be able to protect Miss Wen and Lord Chen." The old minister thought that the matter of Lord Wen's assassination, His Royal Highness might as well hand it over to Governor Chen and General Cang, and temporarily set the death of Lord Wen as a vendetta in the rivers and lakes, covering up people's eyes and ears, and the first rank of the master and his wife were murdered, according to the ancestral system, in addition to rewarding the name and issuing a pension, you should also send a prince to guard. ”

At the mention of the word prince, His Majesty the Emperor's head was in great pain for a moment, "Which of these sons of mine can take on such a heavy responsibility?" ”

"The second prince is so happy, if he goes, he is afraid that he will cause chaos to Lord Chen and General Cang, the third prince is steady, but not alert enough, the fifth prince is not talented and self-serving, the seventh prince is smart, but now in this situation, the more intelligent the person, the more dangerous it is, the eighth prince is timid, and the ninth prince is completely focused on fun......"

"Alright," the emperor sighed, he knew best about his sons, "you can just say the conclusion." ”

"The old minister thinks that it is most appropriate for the Nine Emperors to go."

"Him?" The emperor was surprised: "He can't bear the slightest hardship, and now he is almost twenty years old, and he can't do anything, what can he do if he goes?" ”

"It is precisely because of this that the Nine Emperor Princes are the most suitable person," Wei Xiang said with a smile: "The Nine Emperor Princes are your favorite prince, and he can only show the importance you attach to Lord Wen's case." Now that the princes are all older, and their ambitions for the throne are gradually revealed, if the second prince and the third prince and others go, I am afraid that they will provoke the hostility of other princes, and it will add a lot of trouble, and it will also make Zeng Wuhou suspicious, and maybe he will attack the princes. ”

The emperor sneered: "In other words, sending a waste will make everyone feel at ease?" ”

Wei Xiang lowered his head and became more and more respectful, "Your Majesty, the old minister knows that you are worried about the safety of the Nine Emperor Princes, but now that the situation is critical, this is the best way." ”

The emperor sighed and said, "I know ......."

On the second day, the Nine Emperor Princes stood in the cold wind trembling in the cold wind with the holy decree in their hands.

Chenggong in front of the emperor pinched his throat and smiled: "His Royal Highness the Ninth Emperor, the emperor said, this is a big event, it can't be delayed, you leave early tomorrow, the sooner you arrive, the better." ”

"Chenggong Gong...... "The Nine Emperor Princes raised their heads to look at the sky, speechless and choked, "Have I done anything recently to make my father unhappy?" ”

"This ...... The slave doesn't know ...... either," Cheng Gonggong laughed with.

"Is it because the day before yesterday in the Drunken Immortal Building, I beat Wang Shangshu's son? Or did I break the birthday gift that the third emperor brother prepared for my father's emperor yesterday? You can't blame me for this, I'm for my father's good, do you know what the third emperor brother prepared for his father? A parrot! If it is really sent over, my father must not be annoyed to death. ”

"Your Highness......"

"Oh, I remember." The Nine Emperor Princes clapped their hands, "Is it because of the Queen Mother?" ”

"The Emperor...... The Queen? ”

"I accidentally picked the Queen's flower."

Father-in-law Cheng was sweating profusely, "You...... Are you okay with picking the queen's flowers? ”

"Doesn't this make the little palace maid happy, I picked a flower casually, but it didn't become the flower of the queen mother I wanted to pick."

The queen mother has no other preferences, but she likes the moon flowers she planted herself, but as soon as a flower bone appeared, it was ruined by the Nine Emperor Princes.

Thinking of this, Gonggong Cheng persuaded from the bottom of his heart: "His Royal Highness the Ninth Emperor Prince, you better hide out as soon as possible." ”
