Chapter 196: Showing the Horse's Feet
The Marquis of the capital sent a letter to Gongzi Qingqian, asking him to come back with a blank look.
Gongzi Qingqian finished the work at hand and took Yao Tong into the capital.
Although the weather in October is cold, it does not affect the prosperity of the market at all.
To get to Haihou Mansion from the south gate of the capital, you need to pass through the south market. Childe's shallow carriage moved slowly.
"Childe! The woman who peeked by the window on the second floor of Yipinju seemed to be Zhuo'er of Minghongyuan! Yao Tong inadvertently looked up and saw Zhuo'er looking down in front of the window.
Childe Qingqian opened the car window and looked at the second floor of Yipinju. Zhuo'er was still looking down at the bazaar.
"Yao Tong! Pull over to the side of the road! Childe Qingqian commanded.
"Gotcha!" Yao Tong slowly pulled the carriage under a lush locust tree opposite Yipinju.
Those who can go to Yipinju are all high-ranking officials and nobles. Childe knows almost everything.
However, he saw an unfamiliar face. The man was in his thirties, dressed in Confucian robes, with a green beard under his chin. Zhuo'er's figure also disappeared from the window.
"Let's go!" Childe Qingqian closed the window of the car.
Yao Tong drove the carriage on. He wanted to ask Childe what he saw? But I didn't ask. There were so many people on the street that he had to drive carefully.
The carriage arrived at Haihou Mansion. Childe Qingqian got out of the carriage and went directly into the house.
He walked through the corridor and came to the old marquis's study.
The old marquis was drinking tea. Childe Qingqian went in and said hello to his father.
"Excuse me! Did the Taoist priest find out? The old marquis put down the teacup and asked.
"Checking in Xiang!" Childe replied respectfully.
"Don't slack off! You can't ignore the emperor's safety just because he might help you! Haihou Ye's words made Gongzi Qingqing secretly break out in a cold sweat. He did have the idea.
Since this Taoist priest can do what he and the three princes can't do, he can just sit aside and wait for the result.
"Don't dare!" Childe said lightly.
"Don't dare? How much convenience have you used to make it easier for you? Although the father is old, he is not confused! The old marquis reprimanded Gongzi for being shallow.
Childe Qingqian felt that his breath was a little uncomfortable. He tried to calm himself down.
"If you can't find out, let him go! Otherwise, it's okay to kill it! "The old marquis is extremely attentive to the emperor.
"The assassination of Gongzi Jin's people failed! That Wuji Taoist priest is not easy to deal with! Childe told the truth.
"It seems that I still have to enter the palace to face the saint in person!" The old marquis put down the teacup in his hand.
"Daddy! Cannot! I heard that the emperor took the pill, and his body and spirit were much better. Childe Qingqian hurriedly stopped.
"Do you want to ignore a hidden danger for the sake of your own title?" The old marquis looked at his scheming son, who was thoughtful, and asked rhetorically.
"If you go, you can't get any results, so why bother with yourself!" Childe Qingqian refused to budge.
"You!" The old marquis didn't know this ending. But he just can't stand it!
"Father! Second brother! Gongzi Qingyue heard the movement in his father's study and walked in.
"Get ready! I'm going to eat with my father. Childe Qingqian turned around and ordered.
"Good!" Childe Qingyue looked at his father with an angry face and exited the door.
"Since my father belongs to the third prince, then I will do the rest! Shallowness will never do anything disobedient! "Childe Qingqian gave his father another salute.
"I'm afraid it backfired!" The old marquis sighed.
How could the shrewd old marquis not see what the emperor meant? But he knew that the second prince couldn't be a good emperor! For the sake of his own interests, he can completely reach the point of unscrupulous means. The only thing he deserves to be appreciated by the old marquis is that his filial piety still exists. Otherwise, this country would have been his!
Childe Qingqian, father and son, did not say a word when the three of them were eating. The old marquis drank a glass of wine. His face flushed.
"I'm getting old! You will walk the way forward! No matter if you succeed or fail, no regrets are! The old marquis put down his chopsticks and got up to leave the table.
"Second brother! Or give up! "Gongzi Qingyue feels that the second prince is already determined to win!
"The arrow is on the string, I can't help it!" Childe Qingqian patted Childe Qingyue's shoulder and left.
"Second brother! Your father won't let me and my eldest brother interfere! You must not be fine! Childe Qingyue pinched the chopsticks in her hand, looked at Childe's shallow back and said secretly.
The old marquis still went to the palace to see the emperor. The emperor knew that the old marquis was loyal, so he only responded vaguely and did not express his position.
The old marquis returned to the mansion and hurt himself, and he didn't even eat dinner. Childe Qingqian sighed after receiving the tip. Father, why is this troublesome?
"Childe! Found it! In the morning, it was Wuji Dao who met Zhuo'er in Yipinju! Hanguang came to report excitedly.
"Just saw Zhuo'er?" Childe Qingqian looked up at Hanguang.
"The boss of Yipinju insists that Zhuo'er is the only one!" Hanguang recalls what he went to investigate.
"Where does she have that strength! But we can now be sure of one thing, that Wuji Dao and Minghong Yuan are inseparable. Childe stood up.
"Childe is going to Minghong Temple?" Yao Tong saw Gongzi Qingqian walking to the window and asked.
"Get the message out!" Childe looked at the bright afternoon sun and smiled.
"Yes!" Hanguang went to reveal the news to Gongzi Jin's people according to Gongzi's shallow instructions.
After Gongzi Jinqian received the news, he immediately went to the second prince's mansion.
The second prince heard that Wuji Daoren went to Yipinju to see Zhuo'er, and he was a little surprised. A Taoist priest is involved with a place like Minghongyuan, after all, it is not a good thing.
"I suspect that this Wuji Dao and the Weihong organization are inseparable!" Gongzi Jinqian said coldly.
"Then why didn't you seal the Minghong Temple?" The second prince asked puzzled.
"Without Minghong Academy, how can we clean up the remnants of the Weihong organization?" Childe Jin Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
"No wonder Wei Wujing is dead, you still keep Minghong Academy!" The second prince suddenly realized. He thought that Gongzi Jinqian and others had forgotten about Minghong Courtyard!
"Just a private meeting between him and Zhuo'er isn't enough to prove anything!" Childe Jin said what the problem was.
"Will the pill be poisonous?" The second prince's forehead began to sweat.
"Nope! If it's poisonous, the royal doctors will find out. "Gongzi Jin is determined.
"And what is his purpose?" The second prince really couldn't figure it out.
"What's wrong with the emperor?"
"My father's spirit is much better. Also, my mother said that he was practicing with the Wuji Dao people, and he rarely walked around the harem anymore. "The second prince told everything he knew.
"The emperor is terminally ill, it's a good thing to go to the harem less!" Gongzi Jinyan couldn't tell what kind of medicine this Taoist priest was selling in the gourd.
"Aren't there any of our people in Minghong Courtyard?" The second prince said softly.
"That wind and dust is very ghostly! Never say a word in front of them! Childe Jin Yan frowned.
"That Fengchenzi and Weihong organization ......"
"It is said that her father refused to surrender, saying that he was hanged!" Gongzi Jin's eyes were full of cold light.
"Then it's not surprising that she has a connection with the Weihong organization! After all, the father's hatred is not shared! Blame my father for being too merciful! The second prince sighed.
"How's it really like it? Only the emperor knows! There is something in Gongzi Jin's words.
