Chapter Seventy-Three: The Quarrel (I)
"Okay, okay, I'll help you check, if this thing really comes from the palace, there will definitely be a record, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation." The second prince said with a smile.
Jiang Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, looked at the second prince gratefully, and said, "I know, His Highness has a lot of things to deal with recently, and I really shouldn't ...... it if I bother Your Highness with such a trivial matter."
The second prince shook his head with a smile, and his handsome face was full of sincere smiles: "I'm very happy that Qingyue can come to me for help, it seems that my good wine is not in vain, Qingyue also treats me as a brother, right?" ”
When Jiang Qingyue heard this, he smiled and bowed his head: "Yes!" We are brothers. ”
Jiang Qingyue looked at the smile on the face of the second prince, but what he said was very simple, the two looked at each other and smiled, quite a tacit understanding.
It's just that Jiang Qingyue looked at the second prince at this time, but his mood was a little heavy, Zhou Ruian had just been calculating the Dingguo Mansion with Lin Zheyuan today......
Jiang Qingyue walked back with heavy steps, what she thought was that before leaving, the second prince personally sent her out of the house, saying that the matter of infancy was handed over to him, and he would definitely help her investigate clearly.
He really thinks of her as a friend, but what about her? She knew that he was about to be in trouble, but she couldn't remind him that Jiang Qingyue felt that she was particularly despicable.
On the one hand, she couldn't betray Zhou Rui'an, because the Chen family was burned alive, and she couldn't be indifferent; But on the other hand, the second prince has true affection for her, no matter what the queen and the Dingguo Mansion do, the second prince is innocent, but the second prince can't get rid of the relationship from it.
The more Jiang Qingyue thought of this, she felt a burst of chagrin, maybe she shouldn't have gone to the second prince for help just now.
But she couldn't go back to get her swaddling clothes back, and Jiang Qingyue faced the first dilemma in her life.
Jiang Qingyue didn't know that the second prince was full of worries at this time.
is different from Jiang Qingyue, the second prince has lived in the palace since he was a child, and when he saw the swaddling clothes for the first time, he knew that this swaddling clothes were definitely from the palace, and they were absolutely extraordinary, and it was impossible to be like Jiang Qingyue said, just a palace maid or a female official.
Because everything in the palace is regulated, what kind of identity and what kind of thing, it is impossible for someone to cross this rule, the second prince looked at the swaddling clothes that Jiang Qingyue took out, and he knew that the person who used this thing must be the prince or princess!
The second prince persuaded Jiang Qingyue, saying that there could be no royal blood flowing outside the palace, but in fact, it was not so much to warn Jiang Qingyue as to persuade himself.
How is it possible, how is it possible? The blood of the royal family is flowing among the people, and this is not writing a script! But the second prince knew that Jiang Qingyue could come to him for help, which meant that she had already investigated this matter and had a certain degree of certainty, knowing that there was still a Zhou Ruian behind Jiang Qingyue!
Zhou Ruian is the leader of Jinyiwei! You can't go wrong! So, Jiang Qingyue is still a prince who is outcast?
The second prince suddenly thought of the destruction of the Weiyuan dart game, Xu Tianhai didn't say a word until he was sentenced to death, but why did the queen mother suddenly have no Weiyuan dart game? So suddenly, and so caught off guard, is the queen mother really not afraid of things being revealed? Or does the queen have to do this?
I have to say that the second prince who is out of his mother's control is still very smart, the more he thinks about it, the more he thinks it's like this, maybe Jiang Qingyue is really his father's flesh and blood, he was taken out of the palace by the queen mother, it was the hand of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, and now Jiang Qingyue is back, the queen mother is worried that the matter will be revealed, so she first killed all the insiders back then, so that no one knows Jiang Qingyue's identity anymore?
But this is not right, the second prince thought in his heart, because when he was born, there were indeed no other princes born, none of them died young, there were no secrets in the palace, and it was impossible for a palace maid to climb her father's bed beads and secretly knot but not report this kind of thing.
He still remembered that at that time, Concubine Qing was still alive, and she favored the harem, and his father rarely even favored other concubines, so how could he suddenly have a prince who was living among the people?
The second prince was puzzled, but he was sure of one thing, if anyone had the ability to steal a prince from the palace, that person was only his mother!
The second prince didn't plan to ask the queen directly, he planned to start with the swaddling clothes and find out whose swaddling clothes it was!
Thinking of this, the second prince was shocked, and he looked a little impatient.
When Jiang Qingyue got home, she went back to the room, pushed open the door, and saw Zhou Ruian sitting on a chair waiting for her, she instinctively frowned.
Zhou Ruian raised his head to look at her and asked softly, "What, don't you want to see me?" ”
Jiang Qingyue said lightly: "No, now that the case of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau has been revealed, and you should be reinstated soon, what's the matter, don't you have to be on duty tomorrow?" ”
"But I want to see you." Zhou Rui'an's eyes fell on her, frank and open, and he didn't shy away from it: "That's why I'm here," after a pause, he couldn't hide his grievances: "I thought you were going to talk at the Second Prince's Mansion today." ”
He didn't want to say that he cared, but he couldn't help it, and the sour taste in his tone made him unable to hide it.
Jiang Qingyue sighed: "Please ask Your Highness a little help, it's not good to stay and ask for wine again." "She also wants to be embarrassed.
Zhou Rui'an: "......" means that you are really almost going to stay again?
"Why didn't I know that your relationship with the second prince was so good?" Zhou Ruian squinted his eyes and asked.
Jiang Qingyue thought about it, and then said sincerely: "I didn't expect it either. ”
Obviously, she didn't look down on the second prince at the beginning, that is, a coward, who has not grown up yet, and should be spoiled by the queen in the palm of her hand, but inexplicably, the relationship is so good now?
Zhou Rui'an squinted, redefining the threat of the second prince for the first time, although he always felt that the second prince and Jiang Qingyue were very likely to be half-brothers and sisters, so he didn't care too much, but the problem now is that Jiang Qingyue didn't know!
Zhou Rui'an's sense of crisis immediately came out: "Qingyue, I don't think it's suitable for you to get too close to the second prince," after a pause, he said lightly: "Between our position and the queen, sooner or later, it will be a life-and-death relationship." ”
Zhou Ruian said, raised her head and met Jiang Qingyue's eyes, Jiang Qingyue's eyes flashed, she understood what Zhou Ruian meant, this was what she had been worried about.
Zhou Ruian didn't know that Jiang Qingyue had already begun to ask the second prince to help her investigate the mystery of her life experience, if she knew, wouldn't it be blown up?
Jiang Qingyue felt that he would not tell him first.
"I know what I know." Jiang Qingyue said in a low voice.
Zhou Rui's head was relieved, but Jiang Qingyue glanced at him: "If one day, you and the queen ...... To the point of never dying with the emperor, will you let go of the second prince? ”
Zhou Rui'an's brows furrowed fiercely, he squinted, and for the first time glanced at Jiang Qingyue with scrutinizing and even a little cold eyes.
Jiang Qingyue's question has basically explained her attitude, she is worried about the second prince, but this question does not need to be questioned, sooner or later, he will turn his face with the emperor, and then it will be the point of life and death, of course he will not let him go of the second prince.
Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, this thing doesn't need to be taught by anyone, he knows how to do it!
But now Jiang Qingyue obviously doesn't approve of his way!
"Qingyue, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Ruian couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "You won't really sympathize with the second prince, right?" ”
Jiang Qingyue shook his head, "Don't ask me, I don't know, I don't know a lot of things recently." As she spoke, she raised her head and glanced at Zhou Rui'an: "Many things I thought I knew were actually not what I thought they were at all, my life experience, Weiyuan Dart Game, and the emperor, and you...... Zhou Rui'an, my heart is very confused, I don't know what I see, whether what I judge is true. ”
Zhou Ruian stretched out his hand and hugged her in his arms, he knew, Jiang Qingyue didn't know, but he knew that it was because he disturbed her sight.
From the time he began to suspect her background, all he did was to hide it, not wanting her to know the truth, and he tried his best to confuse her.
But his Qingyue, such a smart and clever person, and knows him so well, how could he not see the flaws? She saw it clearly, but she didn't demolish him, and she resisted all the pressure alone.
She is unwilling to accept the perfect answer he gave, and must find the truth herself.
Zhou Rui'an felt a little sad in his heart, she was the person he was most unwilling to hurt, but why, what he did seemed to hurt her?
"Qingyue, is your life experience so important? Do you have to know who you are? Isn't it enough to have me? Zhou Ruian asked in a low voice: "I will treat you well and love you well, we will have children and relatives in the future, is this not okay?" ”
Jiang Qingyue shook his head: "No, this is my goal all along, I must find it." ”
The brilliance in Zhou Rui'an's eyes gradually dimmed, and he used all his strength to hug her tightly, but he silently said in his heart that he would not let her find the truth, never, because he would never lose her.
Jiang Qingyue pushed Zhou Rui'an away, "You go back early, it's not too early." ”
If it was before, Zhou Ruian could still stay in a joke, but this time he didn't, he returned to the next door in silence, and Luo Bei saw his expression and immediately ran away.
Their master's obviously dissatisfied expression, he can't afford to provoke!
"Come back." Zhou Ruian called coldly.
Luo Bei lowered his head and followed Zhou Rui'an step by step.
Zhou Ruian said: "The matter on the queen's side, you have to hurry up." After a pause, his eyes flashed: "Also, don't relax on Dong Cheng's side, it's almost time to use him." ”
Luo Bei's expression was dazed, when Dong Cheng was used, there was only one time, and that was when something happened!
Luo Bei shook his head heavily: "Yes!" After a pause, he couldn't help but glance at Zhou Rui'an: "Master, you have been hesitating before, thinking that now is not the time, and now you are so anxious, but is it because of Jiang Gongzi?" ”
Zhou Ruian didn't speak, his expression was indifferent, but Luo Bei already knew the answer, sighed secretly, and bowed and retreated.
The second prince went to the palace to go to the worship room, but now the queen has been grounded, the phoenix seal has also been taken away, and the right to dominate the six palaces has been lost, many people think that the queen has fallen out of favor, and it is impossible to make a comeback.
So this time, the second prince came to investigate an incident that was so far away, and it was not smooth, and several minions also pushed back and forth, which made the second prince very unhappy.
Especially there is a minion, in order to please Qin Guifei, he doesn't speak very well, and there is no reason for the prince to ask about the affairs of the harem, both openly and secretly saying that the second prince does not understand the rules, and the second prince was so angry that he immediately attacked and hit the slave's board.
The slave was beaten half to death, and the entire worship room was silent, and everyone did not expect that the second prince, who had always been known for his kindness and generosity, would suddenly have a seizure.
The second prince looked at everyone coldly: "No matter how good Zhengkun Palace is, it will not be your turn to talk nonsense!" If the head on the neck is too heavy, say it, and His Highness will fulfill them! ”
No one dared to speak again, and the second prince finally got the record he wanted to see.
This Chen embroidery is also a rare thing in the palace, because the amount is scarce, and the embroidery method is peculiar, many mothers like it, but not everyone has it, most of them are Qing Guifei, and a few, for example, the queen has some, and the others can rarely be found again.
However, it is certain that most of the Chen embroidery in the palace is in the hands of the Qing concubine.
Speaking of which, this Chen embroidery was able to enter the palace because it was liked by the Qing Guifei, and the Qing Guifei especially liked this embroidery method, and Emperor Xuande immediately asked the Chen family to start supplying Chen embroidery in order to love the concubine.
When the second prince saw this, he was even more puzzled, what he got was indeed Chen Xiu in the palace, but Concubine Qing only gave birth to a daughter of Princess Ningyang, and did not give birth to a prince, so what happened to Jiang Qingyue?
The second prince checked the palace maids in the palace of the concubine again, and all the palace maids and female officials with faces around her checked them, but they did not find the second one who was pregnant.
The second prince did not give up, and found Zhengkun Palace again, but the queen mother was not interested in embroidery and other things, so she got it, and she didn't know where she received it, after all, the queen had used too many good things.
There are others, whose whereabouts are unknown, and it will take some time to find them.
The second prince searched for a long time, and things were more complicated than he imagined, so he left the palace with a heavy heart.
Now there is a big event outside the palace, and someone in Dali Temple has come to shout injustice, and it is still an old case more than ten years ago, it was the Chen family that was burned alive overnight, and the descendants of the Chen family came to sue!
If it is an old case, it will not alarm the people of the whole capital, this time the descendants of the Chen family are not suing anyone else, it is the queen's maiden family, the Dingguo Mansion!
Ordinary people sued Xungui, and this matter was lively, and many people went to see the excitement.
The Chen family came forward this time with a middle-aged man, saying that he was the uncle of the Chen family's father and brother back then, and the relationship was quite far away anyway, but if you want to be involved, you can also get involved.
Guan Youwei was extremely kind to the man named Chen Dazhuang, "Speak slowly, if you have any grievances, you will tell this official." ”
Chen Dazhuang was so bold that he began to cry: "The Dingguo Mansion has long taken a fancy to our Chen family's exclusive acupuncture method, and I have to forcibly join the shares, and I will ...... After the uncle refused, he held a grudge, and then he moved the idea of killing! My uncle died a terrible death! My lord, a family of more than 20 people was burned to death by fire! Ask the master of the blue sky to be the master of the villain! ”
Guan Youwei said again: "Then why did you remember to sue the Guogong Mansion after so many years?" But by whom? ”
Chen Dazhuang said vigorously: "The villain used to think it was an accident, but I heard that this time the Weiyuan Dart Bureau was destroyed by the queen's guards, the villain thought about it, no, this Weiyuan Dart Bureau is the same as our Chen family, this is too unlucky, the queen is not from the Dingguo Mansion!" You can't take off the dry cleaning! ”
The case of Weiyuan Dart Bureau has not passed, and it is the hottest topic of the people, especially this matter also involves the queen, and now hearing Chen Dazhuang's words, many people have exerted their outstanding imagination and linked the two cases together, and they have come to a conclusion, Chen Dazhuang is right!
This is also the effect that Zhou Rui'an wants to achieve, two extremely similar cases, and they are both related to the Dingguo Mansion, that is, they have nothing to do with it, and the people will also feel that these two cases are involved, which is Zhou Rui'an's cleverness, even if there is no evidence, he has already taken the initiative in public opinion.
At this time, no matter how much Dingguo Gong denied it, the people already believed most of it in their hearts, if it was before, the Dingguo Mansion and the queen would naturally not care what a group of civilians thought, but at this time, the queen was implicated because of Xu Tianhai, and it was a sensitive time, and the matter of the Chen family broke out, that is, the queen and the Dingguo Mansion could not afford it.
The mother of a country, but always associated with the tragedy, what kind of reputation does this have?
Of course, Zhou Shizi has always felt that he disdains to do that kind of framing thing, but who made the Dingguo Mansion unclean, so he had to hand over the handle to him? Besides, whether this Chen family's matter was done by the Dingguo Mansion or not, only the Dingguo Duke knows.
Guan Youwei accepted the complaint on the spot and asked Chen Dazhuang to go back to rest.
Chen Dazhuang walked out of Dali Temple, and a person came to pick him up, and the sharp-eyed people quickly recognized it and found that the person was Lin Zheyuan, the master of Weiyuan Dart Bureau!
The people of Weiyuan Dart Bureau and the people of the Chen family came into contact, and the people of the capital felt as if they had learned something.
When the second prince received the news, he was immediately furious, and Lin Zheyuan was also involved, needless to say, it must have been Zhou Rui'an who was behind him, otherwise he really didn't believe that he could do so many things with one Lin Zheyuan.
However, the second prince cares about another thing, does Jiang Qingyue know about this?
Thinking of this, the second prince couldn't help but press his chest, and what was in the placket was half of the swaddling clothes that Jiang Qingyue handed over to him.
Jiang Qingyue said that this half of the swaddling clothes was related to her life experience, it is very likely that this half of the swaddling clothes once wrapped her, and the ghost made the gods worse, he carefully protected the position on his chest, but now, the person who was carefully put in his heart by him is very likely to come to deal with him with his enemies.
Inexplicably, there is a faint feeling of heartache.
Guan Youwei quickly reported the case of the Chen family to Emperor Xuande, and the beautiful name was about the Dingguo Mansion and the queen's mother, he didn't dare to make his own decisions, and then Emperor Xuande asked Zhou Rui'an, who had just been reinstated, to cooperate with Guan Youwei to investigate the case of the Chen family.
Even the Jinyi guards were dispatched, and Emperor Xuande was determined to investigate the Dingguo Mansion this time.
The second prince met Zhou Rui'an in front of the palace gate.
The second prince glanced at Zhou Rui'an with a smile: "I haven't congratulated Lord Zhou on his reinstatement." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness, but the reinstatement of the minister may not be a good thing for Your Highness." Zhou Ruian said lightly.
The second prince raised his eyebrows: "Why, Lord Zhou is so sure that the Dingguo Mansion is the murderer?" ”
"Yes or no, only the murderer himself knows, I was ordered to investigate this case, His Highness will stop me like this, don't worry about what others will say?" Zhou Ruian asked rhetorically.
The second prince said indifferently: "The pure one is self-purifying, I have a clear conscience, why am I afraid of the gossip of others?" After a pause, he pretended to say: "But then again, Lord Zhou may be a good hand at leading troops to fight, as for this investigation, it may not really be a strong point, otherwise Qingyue would not let Lord Zhou not ask, and would ask His Highness to help." ”
At the mention of Jiang Qingyue, Zhou Rui'an's face changed slightly, and he squinted: "Your Highness is now in an eventful season, and he is willing to take care of other people's affairs, which is really an ancient way." ”
"Other people's affairs may not be taken care of, but who let this be Qingyue's business? What's more, this is also related to Qingyue's life experience, since she asked me for help, I naturally can't ignore it," the second prince smiled slowly: "Okay, I won't bother Lord Zhou much, Lord Zhou is busy with business, I just hope that Lord Zhou, for the sake of you and me going to the battlefield together, will be polite when I go to the Dingguo Mansion, and my grandfather is too old to be stimulated." ”
Dingguo Gong can't be stimulated, and he dares to stimulate him like this?
Zhou Ruian never thought that Jiang Qingyue would actually ask the second prince to help investigate his life experience! Does she already trust the second prince so much now?
He was just about to calculate the Dingguo Mansion, and when he turned around, the second prince had already touched his backyard! This is nothing short of provocation!
Zhou Rui'an's face changed instantly, he turned around and strode away, he went directly to the next door to find Jiang Qingyue.
Zhou Rui'an was menacing, Jiang Qingyue, Lin Zheyuan and others were talking, seeing Zhou Rui'an coming over with an angry face, Lin Zheyuan tugged Jiang Qingyue's sleeve.
Jiang Qingyue raised his head and frowned faintly when he saw Zhou Ruian, but Zhou Ruian had already walked in front of him and grabbed her wrist: "I have something to say to you." ”
Jiang Qingyue was just about to refuse, but Zhou Ruian had already pulled him out.
