Chapter 229: Heirloom Jade
At this point, Wen Qing finally understood that these two people were digging a pit for him, and even if he didn't want to jump, he would be pushed down by them.
He has always felt that he has an excellent IQ, but in front of the two of them, he will always only be cheated.
Although he was reluctant, it was a good thing to be able to leave the palace, it was much better than hiding in the Xuan Hall and looking at the face of the black brother from time to time.
So at dusk that day, just before the palace gate was about to be closed, Wen Qing and Zhuang Siyan, who were dressed in disguise, each took two entourages and went out from Xihua Gate.
Ling Tiancheng stood at the corner of a rockery not far from Xihua Gate, watching the two of them come from a distance, and then walking into the distance, the warmth that had accumulated in the morning was like the cold of unbearable weather, forming a thin layer of ice on his chest.
He only felt cold in his heart, and he wanted to go out with Zhuang Siyan, but he was entangled in chores, as if he was tied to countless ropes in this palace, and he couldn't break free.
It wasn't until they had disappeared for a long time, and night had fallen in Xihua Gate, and all the surroundings were plunged into darkness, that Ling Tiancheng came out of his emotions and turned around and walked back.
Li Fu, who had been following him, quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced sideways at Xihuamen without a trace, hoping that Wan Niangniang could come back soon, otherwise his next days would not be easy.
Zhuang Siyan couldn't control how she lived in the palace, but after she left the palace, she was much freer.
The first thing, of course, was to see Ye Yuanpei.
Since Ling Tiancheng asked Wen Qing to follow this, then follow it, anyway, after tonight, she has the opportunity to sneak out alone, could it be that this man who is more motherly than her is even sleeping next to her?
If that was the case, there was no need for Zhuang Siyan to say it, Ling Tiancheng himself could think of a hundred ways to keep him away.
Thinking like this, Zhuang Siyan unconsciously brought a little smile on his face, glanced sideways at Wen Qing, and asked him with great interest: "Wen Qing, the emperor asked you to follow me, did you let you look at me closely?" ”
Wen Qing: "......"
Did the emperor say it? How did he remember that the woman had done it herself? In order to get out of the palace smoothly, she really dared to go down with any blood, and even Wen Qing was dragged into the water.
It's okay not to mention this, but when Wen Qing mentioned it, she was also angry: "Wasn't Niangniang there at the time?" What did the emperor say, you don't know? ”
Talk back? Zhuang Siyan will also, I saw that her eyes widened innocently, and she looked at Wen Qing even more innocently and asked: "I don't know, I only know that the emperor asked you to come out and investigate the case with me."
You said that the emperor is too, how strong is your ability, didn't you always take the safety of the capital by yourself before, why do you have to deign to accommodate me now? ”
Wen Qing felt that the green tendons on his head were starting to beat, but he couldn't get angry first, whoever fired first would lose, this was common sense, he knew.
"Niangniang is the emperor's own detective, Wen Qing will only feel flattered if you cooperate, Niangniang still doesn't have to worry about my business, think about where the silver will be hidden, right?"
Zhuang Siyan: "It's easy to say, this matter was checked by me and the general at that time, and I will go to his house immediately at two o'clock to discuss with him, you ......"
Wen Qing: "I naturally have to go with me, otherwise how can I afford the word 'cooperation'?" ”
Zhuang Siyan: "Hahaha, it makes sense, let's go." ”
The two walked along the street of the capital at night to the General's Mansion, but Wen Qing always felt that something was wrong.
Was this woman laughing a little crazy just now? He didn't want to be followed at all.,It's not free to behave.,It seems that he's happy to go with him.。
Judging by past experience, Wen Qing felt that there must be something in it that he didn't know now, and this thing was definitely not a good thing.
But can he go back? The answer is no, not only can't, but it is still up and down the mountain of fire, and follow every step of the way.
Compared with his anxiety, Zhuang Siyan was much more chic and comfortable.
She rode on horseback and walked through the snow, her posture was straight, and she looked into the distance, as if she were going to a luxurious feast.
But if you look closer, you will still see a trace of worry on her nonchalant and provocative face.
Ye Yuanpei wants to travel back, he can't do it alone, and it must be even more difficult to take someone else, it can only be her.
But she is now followed by a small tail, even if Zhuang Siyan has a chance to get rid of him, she is still a little hungry in her heart.
And Ye Yuanpei's affairs can't be delayed, since he left the palace, he has to go back to modern times to see it immediately, even if he can find some useful medicine.
It was a long distance from the palace gate to the general's mansion, and Zhuang Siyan thought about a lot of things in his mind, but until he entered the mansion gate, none of them were helpful to Ye Yuanpei's illness.
The housekeeper of the General's Mansion led them in, and when he talked about Ye Yuanpei, his old face was full of sadness: "The general came back this morning, and he kept crawling, and he couldn't even eat for a day......"
Zhuang Siyan frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" When he was in the palace, there was no such situation, did you not arrange the room, it was freezing this day, don't catch a cold. ”
The old housekeeper shook his head: "It's not that kind of thing, the old slave is afraid that the general will ...... him, and he can't think about it." ”
I can't think of this kind of thing, I may manifest it on others, but I have no choice for Ye Yuanpei.
Not to mention that there is still a glimmer of hope now, even if it is really in a desperate situation, he will not think about it, take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he really can't think about it, he will not use hunger strike to find death, it is too cruel, who can be so ruthless and starve himself to death?
So Zhuang Siyan quickly judged that this might be the trick made by that guy.
She remained silent, followed the old housekeeper inside, and entered Ye Yuanpei's bedroom, and sure enough, she saw that guy crawling on the bed half-dead, his face was a little whiter than in the palace, plus a back injury, the whole person looked like a straight frog.
Hearing that someone was coming, he just turned his head out of it, and glanced at Zhuang Siyan and them with a sloppy look, as if he didn't recognize who the two of them were, so he turned his head again.
The old butler burst into tears on the spot, and hurriedly turned around and wiped his eyes with his sleeve.
Zhuang Siyan stood at the door, didn't go inside, but glanced at Wen Qing, and said softly: "The general is not covered now, it's inconvenient for me to go in, you go over and take a look, what's going on?"
When he left the palace, the emperor told him a thousand times that he must be cured, and this has not been a day, and people have become like this, and when we return to the palace, how can we explain to the emperor? ”
Wen Qing was really startled when she saw Ye Yuanpei's appearance at first glance, and when she heard Zhuang Siyan say this, her heart was also full of emotions, and she forgot that they didn't leave the palace to see Ye Yuanpei, and there was no need to explain this matter to the emperor.
The two of them are here to investigate the case, even if they can't get clues here, there are always other things, how can they become sick visitors in a blink of an eye?
And at this time, Wen Qing's heart was still a little sad about the rabbit and the fox, although the rabbit was not dead at this time, but the appearance of crawling on the bed in a green area really made him sad more than death.
Wen Qing thought of himself, he used to think that he was free when he was not in the palace, and he liked to do this, even if he was caught by a knife and arrow one day in the future, he would be a good man after eighteen years.
But now, the green "big bug" is crawling in front of him, in case one day he is like him, and he can't die or live, how aggrieved.
He even instantly understood the reason for Ye Yuanpei's hunger strike, thinking that if this matter was left on his own, he might have gone to Huangquan with a knife.
Wen Qing, who had turned a thousand times, finally walked to Ye Yuanpei's bed.
Although the two of them usually meet, they don't communicate much, and because of Zhuang Siyan, they still don't like each other.
However, at this time, Wen Qing finished throwing the past untreatable behind, and said very sincerely: "General, there are good doctors in the Dasheng Dynasty, if you are not used to living outside, or go back to the palace, there is the emperor watching, those people will do their best to take care of you." ”
Ye Yuanpei didn't turn his head, only gave him a back of his neck and a green back.
Wen Qing turned his head to look at Zhuang Siyan, and was suddenly startled.
The doorway was empty, and the guy was gone.
Fortunately, there was Ye Yuanpei in front of him, and he mourned his heart, but he didn't think much about it, but Zhuang Siyan was hiding and it was difficult, after all, he was also a nominal brother.
However, until he was about to leave the mansion and go back, the woman who followed him out of the palace did not appear again.
inquired about the old housekeeper, and learned that Zhuang Siyan had already left the house.
Wen Qing stood at the door of the General's Mansion, and the curse words almost rushed out of his mouth, and the sweat of the cold day almost came out.
When he hurried to the house outside Zhuang Siyan's palace, the main owner had already returned to Ye Yuanpei's house, and sat down on a chair, even his feet were cocked: "Now?" Or wait? ”
Ye Yuanpei turned his head and asked her, "That fool is gone?" ”
"Gone, but I guess I'll be back soon."
Ye Yuanpei frowned: "Why did you bring him over, this person is yin and yang, and he doesn't look like a good person." ”
"Don't blame him for who he is, think about what you should do first, right? If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to leave when he comes back. ”
The two exchanged a few words, and Ye Yuanpei reached out and took out something from the cabinet next to the bed, which was the jade he often used to cross.
When Zhuang Siyan saw this thing, he thought of himself and asked, "Is it possible that I can wear this thing back with it?" ”
Ye Yuanpei was not stingy, and directly handed her the thing and said, "You try." ”
As a result, I saw Zhuang Siyan pinching the jade in his hand, chattering in the house for a long time, looking for various directions, and trying all kinds of spells, but he still stood still.
"What the fuck is this, why can you wear it with it, but I can't?" She wasn't convinced.
Ye Yuanpei shrugged his shoulders, but accidentally touched the wound on his shoulder, and instead bared his teeth to her: "You still think I have selfish intentions, don't you see a word written on that jade?" 'Ye', I guess, maybe it's our family's ancestral treasure, and I can only use it. ”
Zhuang Siyan took advantage of the indoor light to really see the words on the jade, and the dissatisfaction in his heart increased again.
I don't have this heirloom jade, why do you give a crossover identity, it's really harmful.
