"It's a coincidence, so what?" Wen Shaoan raised his eyes and looked directly at her, "Could it be that you think Miss Cheng Wu's soul return is related to Sihua Palace?" Sihua Hall was built by Taizu for Empress Zhuang Jing, and it was Empress Zhuang Jing who blessed Miss Cheng Wu in the dark? However, the Sihua Hall was burned down, and Empress Zhuang Jing herself could not be protected, how could she protect Miss Cheng Wu, who had nothing to do with it? Could it be that a wisp of Empress Zhuang Jing's ghost was attached to Miss Cheng Wu? ”

Wen Shao'an's words were suddenly sharp, Ye Ping was stunned, and only spoke after a while, "Do you really dare to think that Empress Zhuang Jing is also something that you and I can blaspheme?" If she really attaches herself to Miss Cheng Wu, we have to kowtow and shout 'Uncle Shi' when we see her. ”

Empress Zhuang Jing is a generation of virtuous queens, she is already a figure like a fairy, everyone in Daliang respects, no one dares to speak disrespectfully, and the two of them are from Hongshan Academy, and they can't have the slightest disrespect for Empress Zhuang Jing.

"I don't mean blasphemy." Wen Shaoan's tone slowed down, but he only stated indifferently, "I'm just following your intentions." ”

Ye Ping snorted, "I know, it's just that your temper should also be changed, although you are young and ambitious, and you are highly valued by the saints, but you are easy to break, don't say some things in front of outsiders, so as not to fall into the hands of others, especially Empress Zhuang Jing......"

Although Empress Zhuang Jing has a very good reputation, Emperor Longqing is quite displeased with her, if it weren't for her set of theories that the Ming monarch should rule by hanging the arch, Daliang would not be able to become a big Wenchen now, so that he can be hindered everywhere.

If it weren't for the fact that the master had closed the mountain gate over the years and had not accepted disciples, and the dozen or so disciples under the door had also kept their duties, only focused on practice, did not make random discussions, and were very low-key and silent in Shilin, I am afraid that the entire Hongshan would have become a thorn in the side of Emperor Longqing.

The two came out together, and saw Cheng Jin standing outside the door from a distance, the little girl was wrapped in a fox fur cloak, and smiled generously at the two of them.

Wen Shao'an was in a trance for a while, and inexplicably thought that Empress Zhuang Jing advocated the publication of the Chinese book back then, could it be that she intended to help Wen Dingnian seize power? If it weren't for Wen Ding's untimely death, he might have become a generation of powerful ministers with high achievements.

"Although the five girls of this Cheng are not very old, they really have a bit of breathtaking beauty, and in a few years, I am afraid that they will also be stunning in the country and the city, with her appearance, maybe she can really enter the middle palace." As a woman, Ye Ping couldn't help but admire.

"No, it won't." Wen Shao'an's gaze narrowed slightly, and he swept Cheng Jin's beautiful little face calmly and without waves.

"Huh?" Ye Ping looked at him suspiciously.

"The middle palace and the fourth concubine have been selected, and the daughter of the Cheng family is not among them." Wen Shaoan's tone was unpleasant, as if he really didn't think Cheng Jin's appearance was anything amazing.

"That's right, these days are rumors that the eldest girl of the Cheng family has lost her name, and the stupid things that Cheng Wu did when she lost her soul have also been mentioned repeatedly, especially last year when she raised an incense burner in Dajue Temple, and it was brought up again by the old thing, which was cited as a joke, and it must have been deliberately done by someone."

Although there are female generals and female officials now, but a woman is evaluated as "able to carry the tripod", it is not a decent thing after all, what else did she drool behind the gang of sons and girls to ask for candy, and rolled on the ground in front of everyone, rumors are varied, if you don't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid that she will be as unbearable as the rumors.

"Such a beauty, I don't know who will fall into the future." Ye Ping sighed, looking at Cheng Jin's eyes, there was a bit of regret, "Maybe when she is a little older, the emperor's overall situation has been decided, and she will still be summoned to the palace, but it's a pity that she is young and always suffers a little in her position." ”

Wen Shao'an's fingers moved slightly, his face was a little unhappy, he felt that Ye Ping was really boring gossip, even Cheng Jin couldn't enter the palace after a few years, and he had to worry about his position, with Cheng Jin's temperament, where was he willing to enter the palace, and then thinking of the steady and solemn Empress Zhuang Jing, he was irritated for no reason.

Cheng Jin was still dressed as a young man, and arched his hand towards the two, with a free and unrestrained demeanor, "I've seen Lord Ye, Master Wen." ”

"Miss Cheng Wu came here in person today, I don't know what is important?" Ye Ping put away her joking look in front of Cheng Jin, and her cold eyes gave people a strong sense of oppression.

If she wasn't really curious about this little girl, she really wouldn't have sold the face of Chengenhou Mansion and came out to see her, but since she had the audacity to ask to see her, she also hoped that she was talking about business, instead of treating Dali Temple as a place for children to run a family wine.

Cheng Jin looked around, "I don't know if I can take a step to speak." ”

Ye Ping glanced at her and turned sideways slightly, "Please." ”

Cheng Jin looked at Ye Ping's office room, which was not spacious, Hongxuan was left outside by her, there were only three of them in the house, this room was not well lit, and there was a faint musty smell in the air, which added a bit of gloomy atmosphere to the room, but this breath is very consistent with Ye Ping, presumably if she has been in a place like Dali Temple for a long time, she will inevitably be contaminated with this murderous atmosphere.

"Miss Cheng Wu, if you have anything to say, just say it." Ye Ping sat down on the edge of the table with an expressionless face, and did not hesitate to avoid the files scattered on the table falling into Cheng Jin's eyes.

"Lord Ye should still be investigating the person who burned to death at the gate of Dali Temple that day, right? I wonder if you have found out the cause of his death? Cheng Jin didn't talk to them, and asked bluntly.

Ye Ping raised her head suddenly, and asked instead of answering, "What advice does Miss Cheng have?" ”

"He was poisoned by the Southern Barbarians and died."

Although Ye Ping and Wen Shao'an were not familiar with the secret art of the Southern Barbarians, the people of Hongshanmen were not in vain, and they already knew it in their hearts, but when these words came out of Cheng Jin's mouth, the eyes of the two of them suddenly changed, especially Ye Ping, who stood up on the table and looked down at her, "How do you know?" ”

"Because I've also been tricked with this kind of Gu." Cheng Jin took out the handkerchief stained with black blood from his sleeve.

Wen Shao'an frowned slightly, and looked up at her, obviously a little incomprehensible.

"When were you given the Gu? Who ordered it? How did you find out? Ye Ping stared at her.

"I've been stupid for many years, I only know that I have been hit by Gu when I wake up, I have no impression of who is the Gu, I think someone used very secret means to place the Gu, as for how to know it...... Cheng Jin smiled self-deprecatingly, "It was when that person was burned alive in front of me that day that the Gu worm in my body reacted, and I knew." ”

"Gu worms are the secret art of the Southern Barbarians, how did you, a little girl who grew up in the Central Plains, know that there are Gu worms in your body?" Wen Shaoan's appearance was still moist and gentle, looking at her without saying a word, but Ye Ping's words were aggressive.
