Ma Guan shouted, and the kneeling servant got up in panic, and immediately trotted away. A moment later, an old man, looking left and right, walked in with the servant.

Yan Liu only glanced at it and determined the identity of the old man.

"Old man! I don't know who entrusted you to deliver a letter to the old man? ”

"Is this Lord Qinchayan?" The old man squinted and looked at the person in front of him, Ma Guan shouted in a low voice when he saw it, and the old man panicked, so he knelt down with his placket in his hand: "Lord Yan forgive your sins!" There was a young father-in-law who dragged me to send a letter to Lord Yan! ”

"Father-in-law, please get up!" Yan Liu held up the kneeling old man with both hands and took the unsealed letter he handed over.

"Thank you, Lord Yan!"

Yan Liu smiled kindly and kindly, and then unfolded the letter in his hand and looked at it, only to sweep the beginning and the end, Yan Liu's expression changed greatly, and after carefully scanning the content of the letter, he hurriedly put the letter away.

Rao Su on the side saw that Yan Liu was so shocked, and he was also puzzled.

"Lord Yan, this is ............"

"Oh......" Yan Liu coughed lowly and said with his hand: "A friend, who came to Aicheng, but couldn't enter the city because of the blockade of the city gate, heard that I was here, so he wrote such a letter to me!" Father-in-law, are you selling oil cakes at the gate of Dongcheng? ”

"How do you know?" The old man has a pestle.

"The sleeves and neckline of the old man's clothes are all oil stains that have been left for a long time, although the cold wind is still rolling up the sleeves, it must be dealing with these, this morning the official entered the city, and happened to see the east city gate to do breakfast business!" Saying that, Yan Liu said to Rao Su again: "Rao Su, I will come when I go, and Master Ma doesn't have to send someone to escort him, this Ai City, no one dares to commit murder in broad daylight!" ”

Rao Su knew that this must be an important matter, so he didn't say anything more at the moment, and after saying goodbye to Rao Su and Ma Guan, Yan Liu left the mansion with the old man, and went all the way to the east gate.

As soon as he arrived at the city gate, Yan Liu saw Ning Zhiyuan and Qin Huai, who were holding the horse and standing aside and were not allowed to enter the city, Ning Zhiyuan and Qin Huai rushed to Aicheng non-stop, but it happened to be blocked by the city gate, and he couldn't enter the city because he didn't dare to identify himself.

"Captain Yan!"

"Open the gates." Yan Liu didn't care about saluting, and hurriedly asked the officers and soldiers guarding the city to open the gate in front of the city gate.

As soon as the gate was opened, Ning Zhiyuan and Qin Huai led the horse into the city.

Among them, the purpose of coming to Aicheng with twists and turns Ning Zhiyuan has already made it clear to Yan Liu in the letter, Yan Liu's surprise is partly because of Ning Zhiyuan's arrival, but also because he is very likely to be in the same city with his son now, fortunately, he is desperate not to come here this time, otherwise this opportunity will be missed!

Ning Zhiyuan and Qin Huai traveled for two days in a row, they were physically and mentally exhausted, and they couldn't go to the mansion, so Yan Liu immediately took Ning Zhiyuan to find an inn and settle down first.

Hearing Yan Liu talk about the reason why he came to Aicheng and Aicheng to block the city gate, Ning Zhiyuan sighed, he had only been away from Beijing for two days, so many things had happened, Aicheng had such a shocking case, and it was likely that a group of powerful people would be involved behind it, it seemed that Dahe was difficult to be quiet for a while.

"Did the rebel really come to Aicheng?" Compared with Ning Zhiyuan's attention to this case, Yan Liu was more worried about his son who made a big mistake and didn't know how to turn back.

"If it is not bad, they should have arrived in Ai at about noon yesterday! Fortunately, Taiwei Yan was clever and actually blocked the city gate first, but it was difficult to determine whether the two were still stranded in the city at this time. ”

"Do you want the old minister to help?"

Yan Liu stared at Ning Zhiyuan nervously. He thought that Ning Zhiyuan was just being searched, but he didn't expect Ning Zhiyuan to come in person, and in the past, he heard that Ning Zhiyuan's condition was serious, but today he saw that he actually came on a horse, and the shock in Yan Liu's heart was also difficult to eliminate for a while.

"Is Taiwei Yan coming to investigate the murder of Aicheng with Lord Rao this time, or is this king coming to investigate, and please Taiwei Yan must keep the matter of this king's coming to Aicheng secret." After two days of travel, there was some rain early yesterday, Ning Zhiyuan's face was not much better than Yan Liu, who was infected with the wind and cold, the city gate of Aicheng was blocked, and he was not sure whether Du Yiyi had left Aicheng before the city gate was blocked, but judging from the current efforts, Aicheng must be the first to search.

Yan Liu was sent by the emperor to investigate the murder of Aicheng, if he used his mind more on things unrelated to the case, he was afraid that Rao Su would be suspicious and the emperor would also be aware of it, and the power of the government could not be used, and it would be much more difficult to search for the traces of the two!

"Of course! It's just that it is really difficult to search with the strength of His Royal Highness King Rui alone, but the old minister has an idea! The fact that the dog left Beijing is normal, since His Royal Highness King Rui has concealed the news of the princess's disappearance, why not, let the old minister borrow the power of the government to search for the whereabouts of the dog? ”

"If Taiwei Yan has the confidence to hide from Lord Rao, it is okay to do so!"

Now no one knows that he is coming to Aicheng, and no one knows about Du Yiyi's disappearance, a father looking for his son, this matter is reasonable!

"His Royal Highness King Rui doesn't need to worry, Rao Su was originally a subordinate of the old minister, and he is also a friend who has forgotten his year, he has always respected the old minister, and he will definitely not be suspicious of the old minister's words."

"In this way, this matter will be handed over to Mrs. Yan to deal with! As long as this matter does not hurt the reputation of the king and the princess, how can Taiwei Yan find the prince and the king of Ling, and he will not interfere much! It's just that this matter must be grasped quickly! ”

"The old minister understands! When the time comes, please also ask His Royal Highness King Rui to cooperate with the actions of the old minister! ”

The handle of the matter was held by King Rui, and Yan Liu's high wind and bright festival was ruined in the hands of Yan Xinglu!

"Taiwei Yan will go to the government first, I'm afraid Lord Rao will notice it if you delay it for too long!"

"Yes!"

Yan Liu arched his hand and strode away.

Now Aicheng is an eventful time, but a few people want to meet here in the wind and rain, now the emperor has all his efforts in Aicheng, so the eyeliner must be everywhere, this time, it seems that the emperor really wants to see the Yan family's jokes!

Two days of running around, so that Ning Zhiyuan felt that the basin of hot water under his feet was very comfortable, wave after wave of unsettled, Ai Cheng had such a murder, and it was faintly related to the powerful in Beijing, he wanted to walk in Ai City, and he had to be 100,000 careful, it was really a good thing, in order to win himself over the first person of the general, in terms of the twists and turns, where was what he imagined at the beginning! But now it's okay, Shen Ke tried his best to help him find Du Yiyi, and even Yan Liu, the old fox, could only cling to his own orders, although it was a little risky, but if he handled it properly, what he wanted to gain in the future would definitely be much more than what he was paying now!

"Childe, it's time to take medicine!"

Qin Huai had already taken out the medicine bottle that was often handed over to him, and Ning Zhiyuan was out of the house, so he relied on this bottle of medicine to support him.

Ning Zhiyuan raised his head and stretched out his hand, pinched two black pills in Qin Huai's palm, took the teacup handed over by Qin Huai, raised his head and swallowed the pills.

After holding his head high for a long time, the bitterness in his mouth finally lightened a little.

"I have always felt that God is unfair to me, my mother died because of me, and I was born to expect death, although my father favored me, but I can't have blood thicker than water like ordinary children, the eldest has the identity of the eldest son, the second has the queen and the marquis of the town, and the third has the support of the national teacher, but I am the only one who has to support the sick body to live in a simple place to save my life! But now it seems that everything is fair, although it is difficult, but these years have finally been a few years of peaceful life under the protection of the father's forehead, and now he is aiming at the court, and he has married an in-law like Shen Ke, and now he has the help of Yan Liu, although he has tracked for thousands of miles, but after all, he found her traces for me, God, it can be regarded as treating me well, the so-called time to run, or that's it! ”

Qin Huai is Ning Zhiyuan's confidant, and he often listens to Ning Zhiyuan babbling about this, so he is not at a loss, but he smiled very rarely: "His Royal Highness King Rui is a blessed person, he has lived under the judgment of the imperial doctor until now, this is one of them, among the four princes and two princesses, only His Royal Highness King Rui can get the emperor's love, this is the second, he can marry the princess when the person who asks for relatives steps through the threshold, this is the third, God did not open his eyes in the past, but there is always a day when he opens his eyes, His Royal Highness King Rui will definitely be able to make his wishes come true in the future and reign over the world! ”

"What I want is the world, but what I want is just the truth." Ning Zhiyuan smiled, tilted his head and fell on the bed: "I have always had doubts about the death of my mother, and the imperial doctor has always only told my father about my illness and did not tell me. ”

"Your Highness, don't think about it, rest well, and I will probably be able to hear the good news from Captain Yan tomorrow!" Qin Huai knew that this was not a topic that he should touch, and after being stunned for a moment, he squatted down and wiped the water from his feet for Ning Zhiyuan.

"Qin Huai, you go to the outside of the government to watch, if you see that there are officials to arrest and move quickly, follow behind to see if there will be any movement!"

Qin Huai replied yes, picked up the basin and went out the door.

What was the truth nineteen years ago?

Although Concubine Su has not met with herself, but in the end, the blood is thicker than water, not to mention, she died because of herself, as soon as this matter is found out, it will be difficult for him to continue to live calmly in the Rui Wang's mansion.

………………

Yan Rao's two Qincha arrested the four giants of Aicheng as soon as they came, and the news spread in Aicheng for a while, and the four giants relied on the backing behind them to bully the people for the rich and unkind, Yan Rao and the two Qincha could have such good deeds, and the people all applauded. In the small inn, Yan Xinglu, who is his son, is even more honored, and his smile is about to reach his ears all day.

At noon after the Big Four were imprisoned, there were more officials searching in the streets and alleys of Aicheng, no one knew why, only some people guessed that it was to search for the murderer!

Yan Xinglu is very confident in his father's ingenuity, but Du Yiyi is very bottomless in her heart, the appearance of these servants makes her very uneasy, and I heard that it is a strict search from door to door, so there is no goal, no direction, no focus, no search, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like searching for a murderer who is deeply hidden!

But now that the gate of Aicheng is blocked, even if she has a good plan, she can't find a ladder to cross the wall.

In the morning, her composure and calmness have long been replaced by anxiety, and in the afternoon, she listened carefully to all kinds of news, carefully analyzed the possibilities, listened to and analyzed, and just made herself so not distressed! Even the clouds outside now, I don't want to appreciate it!

"I said that you are just too cautious and cautious to find hardships for yourself, with my father's temper, if you knew that I was in Aicheng, I would definitely be in a hurry to find it all over the city, and I would be so gentle there!"
