Chapter 14 People are doing it, and the sky is watching

"Mother, slow down, watch your step." Youlu caught up with Yue Jin's pace and reminded.

Yue Jin didn't say anything and walked forward quickly, the faster she walked, the clearer her mind became, and the more active her thinking became.

She stopped suddenly: No, there was a problem. This kind of thing can be talked about by the two of them in the house, why do they choose to be in the courtyard? And why do you hear things about yourself? Besides, where did the maid who was in charge of guarding the door go? All this coincidence seems to be heard by yourself.

"Youlu, let's go to Lanyuan again."

"Now?" This is the rhythm of going back the same way, and Youlu is a little tired after running back and forth, but she doesn't want to go against the master's will.

"No, let's go to the study." Yue Jin changed her mind, she was going to verify one thing.

/

The study room of the Prince's Mansion is located in the most remote courtyard, and its name is "Baichen Zhai". The word "white" in it was given by Mr. Lin from the word "Baishui" when Xiao Yongqing was studying in Luming Hall, hoping that he could maintain that pure heart. As for the word "dust" in the back, don't mention it.

"You are talking about how the word dust came about, and the words don't come out of your mouth, and you don't panic?" Huai drunk and moved the small wooden chair to the opposite side of the desk.

His right arm was propped up on the table and his head was supported by his hand, his eyes were looking at Xiao Yongqing who was immersed in reading, but his left hand was playing with the Zihao pen that came from the table.

Seeing that Xiao Yongqing ignored himself, Huai Zui put down the Zihao pen and opened the book, the curiosity in his heart was restless, he couldn't read a word, and his hand couldn't help but tap on the table.

Xiao Yongqing was annoyed by him, and said: "It's nothing, it's just that I said at the time: if water wants to appear white, it has to be mixed with white dust." ”

"Poof." Huai drunk couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this.

Xiao Yongqing said without raising his head: "Isn't it funny?" ”

"It's not funny, it's not funny." Huai drunk waved his hand again and again, "I didn't expect you to confront Mr. in public, your courage is commendable." Then he asked curiously, "What about later?" ”

"Later." Xiao Yongqing put down the book in his hand, "I was scolded by Mr. with a handboard: Since this is the case, then you should go to Baichen." ”

"That's where the name you told me came from." Huai drunk suddenly realized.

"Hmm." Xiao Yongqing suddenly changed the topic and asked, "There are still a few hours before the deadline, how did you check?" ”

"This." Huai Zui scratched his head and said, "It's hard to say, I haven't found it." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I took that piece of jade to the pawnshop today to exchange it for some money, but the boss there didn't dare to accept it, saying that this was jade from the western region, and it had been extinct on the market for many years." Huai Zui took out Yu Jue and looked at it, "This kind of thing should be more valuable, right?" ”

"You're smart, you're starting to think about the way back." Xiao Yongqing took a sip of tea and continued, "Things that are too rare have a price. What's more, the only place in the western region that can produce jade is the Shending Mountain under the jurisdiction of Pingyuan, and the Shending Mountain is currently under the control of Beili. ”

"Pingyuan." Huai Zui sat up straight, "But the owner of this jade jue is here in the capital." ”

"You found it?"

"Of course, don't look at who I am." Huai Zui raised his eyebrows, "The direction is what I want, and the work is done by the soldiers you borrowed from me." ”

Xiao Yongqing became interested, pushed a cup of tea to him, and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"An old acquaintance." Huai drunk pretended to be mysterious, "Speaking of which, I still have a relationship with you." ”

Xiao Yongqing thought about his relatives and friends in his mind, but he didn't find any suspicious candidates, so he said: "There are so many people in the capital, and there are no less than hundreds of people who are related to me, how can I ever know?" ”

"After coming out of the pawnshop, I took Yu Jue to the head of Yuxiang Building to identify it. Because I remember that she was there that night, I wanted to see if I could ask something. Outcome! The more Huai Zui talked, the more excited he became, and he slapped the table and said, "She said that this jade jue is very similar to the landlord's things." ”

"So you just led someone to break into the landlord's residence, right?"

"Hey, how do you know?" Huai drunk and said, "Obviously, I haven't seen anyone report to you since I came back?" ”

Xiao Yongqing sighed helplessly: "The people from the Yuxiang Building came directly to the door to seek compensation for the damage in the building. ”

"Lost?" Huai Zui was a little surprised, couldn't the royal family do whatever he wanted? How is it different from what I heard?

"Why do you think Yuxianglou can be opened in such a good location in the West Market? They are backed by the first organization of the rivers and lakes, and this organization was established by Emperor Minghui, the founding saint of the country. ”

"The ...... of the No. 1 organization in the rivers and lakes" Huai drunk his hands and exclaimed, "Ask someone!" Oh my God, it really exists! I thought it was just a legend! ”

He spoke incoherently with excitement. You must know that "asking people" is the supreme existence in the rivers and lakes, and to use an inappropriate analogy, that is the emperor in the rivers and lakes! One hundred responses, no, thousands of responses are not a problem, and even directly reversed the tide of the war.

"It's normal that you haven't heard much about it." Xiao Yongqing was not surprised by Huai Zui's reaction, his tone was calm, "The previous pavilion master who asked the person who came was a disciple of the Su family, although it was a side branch, but he was also implicated in the Pingyuan Rebellion.

"Some people say that he escaped with an amnesty order, some people say that he subdued the law, and some people say that he retired to cultivate immortals...... As for where it went, there is no definite information so far. Since then, the owner of the pavilion has changed, and it has gradually faded out of people's sight. ”

"I suddenly noticed something." Huai Zui rubbed his nose, "Why do you know so much about the things on the rivers and lakes?" ”

"Naturally, someone told me." Xiao Yongqing said lightly, "Have you seen the landlord?" ”

Huai Zui nodded: "The problem is here, the landlord said that this thing was indeed his own, but a few days ago, he Ruo Xiaoshisun took a fancy and half bought and half robbed." I read the notes, and I don't think I'm telling a lie. ”

"What are you going to do next?"

"Admit it." Huai Zui shrugged, "I can't really rush to Xiangguo's mansion, grab Xiao Shisun's collar and ask him what's going on." ”

"It's not that much trouble." Xiao Yongqing said, "Tomorrow, when Hengcheng Gong enters Beijing, Xiangguo will definitely send Xiao Shisun to pick up his son, and you can intercept people on the way." ”

"So rough?"

"Then take your time, find out the news first, and then dive in...... Anyway, I'll send you to Yulin Prison tomorrow when the time comes. Xiao Yongqing smiled meaningfully, "Of course, you can also try to run, it's unlikely to succeed." ”

Two knocks came from the door, followed by the voice of the announcement: "Your Highness, the crown princess is here." ”

"She?" Xiao Yongqing frowned, "Just say that the palace is not free, let her go back." ”

"But ......" the little eunuch hesitated, "The crown princess said that she wanted you to go to the Lan Courtyard quickly, and there might be an accident with Concubine Su." ”
