Chapter 658: Sandalwood Buddha Beads

It has been a long time since the incident, and the anger of Cang Linchen has almost disappeared, and when she heard Xia Yinhuan pleading for her like this, she reluctantly agreed: "Then it's up to you, and when you find your mother, you will be put in prison, but she may not be grateful to you for this kindness."

Cang Linchen said and hugged Xia Yinhuan in his arms, her woman was loose and generous, beautiful and not like mortals and smart and clever, no wonder she was favored, and he couldn't help but hug her tighter.

"It's one thing for her to be unappreciative or not, it's another thing for me to do what I have to do." This is Xia Yinhuan's consistent principle of doing things, others are unkind, but she can't be unrighteous, she has to live a peaceful life in the world, isn't it? If Golden Pearl does something sorry for her again, she will never pay dividends again, but one can be two to no more!

Soon after returning to the main hall of the East Palace, Cang Linchen asked someone to pass on the night to enter the palace, thinking about it, he still felt that there were many doubts about the return of the golden pearl.

First of all, she said that she had escaped, and it was unlikely that she, a person with a heavy responsibility, would want to escape from Ouyang Chen's palm. Second, she was carrying a token of Concubine Yu, if she could escape, why didn't Concubine Yu escape with her?

And as for the details of the escape, she said vaguely, Cang Linchen subconsciously felt that this matter was really strange, but for a while, she couldn't think of where the strange was, so she had to discuss it with Ye Xinghuan.

It was night, in the East Palace, the lights were bright, and there were dozens of candles in the main hall, illuminating the main hall, bright as day. , heavy soldiers, the door of the palace is tightly covered, and the figure in the room can be faintly seen shaking.

Cang Linchen paced back and forth with his hands in his hands, his sword eyebrows frowned, and as he walked, he recounted the incident to Ye Xinghuan as it was.

Ye Xinghuan listened carefully, listened, pretended to be contemplative for a while, and wandered too empty for a while.

It wasn't until Cang Rinchen finished telling the story that he said: "But there is a problem, that Golden Pearl is bent on harming the imperial sister-in-law, we don't know her true intentions, who knows if she will return kindly and tell us the news that the concubine is in the hands of Ouyang Chen, it may be that Ouyang Chen deliberately let her back, or it may be that others deliberately ...... her."

Ye Xinghuan had personally learned the power of the golden pearl, and knew that the golden pearl was not an ordinary person, if she wanted to escape halfway, even if Ouyang Chen couldn't guard against it, she might succeed.

However, she did not choose to escape, but returned to the palace, which is really incredible.

Cang Rinchen nodded, he thought so too, so he asked Ye Xinghuan to discuss it together.

"She does have the token of the mother concubine in her hand, and now it can be concluded that the person who took the mother concubine and the person who rescued the golden pearl are undoubtedly the same person, and it is difficult to determine whether that person is Ouyang Chen." Cang Linchen was tired of walking, so he simply sat on the chair between Ye Xinghuan and Xia Yinhuan, poured a glass of water for himself, and drank it all with his head up.

"It's better to torture her to tell the truth and save her a lot of troubles." Ye Xinghuan dislikes this kind of guessing game the most, and he is too lazy to waste time in a quick battle.

"Don't, don't torture her anymore." At this time, Xia Yinhuan was reluctant, thinking of the appearance of the golden pearl, how could she bear it if she was tortured again.

It's better to kill her directly, no matter how she says it, she is also a woman, planting lotus flowers and exterminating her, isn't it more uncomfortable than death!

"That doesn't work, so what do you say?" Ye Xinghuan also frowned, he would definitely be more ruthless than Cang Linchen, if he had made a decision, he should have beheaded the Jin family and the nine clans.

"It's better to ask King Wu." Xia Yinhuan's eyes lit up and proposed: "I heard that Ouyang Chen had met with the concubine when he left the palace, and there are also rumors that the concubine has a connection with the desert, maybe King Wu will know something?"

Cang Linchen had also heard these rumors, but at that time, he had never suspected that Concubine Yu and King Wu had ill intentions, so he never cared.

Now that he is mentioned by Xia Yinhuan, he feels that there is something to do, there is no wind and no waves, since there are rumors, there must be his reason.

"Okay, let's go ask King Wu tomorrow." Cang Linchen said this and instructed Ye Xinghuan to say: "You go to Ganlu Temple overnight to find out if there are any clues left." ”

"Okay." Ye Xinghuan agreed, and turned around and walked out of the room without delay.

Xia Yinhuan frowned, her hands were clenched together, her hands were pulled blue and white, and she could only pull her hands to vent her anxiety.

Cang Linchen saw it in his eyes, and hurriedly grabbed her hand and said worriedly: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"I think this matter is very wrong, Jin Pearl is very suspicious, not to mention, that is, Ouyang Chen should not be that kind of person, if he really cooperated with Concubine Yu, he should have appeared when Concubine Yu forced the palace, why did he kidnap Concubine Yu after Concubine Yu failed." Xia Yinhuan was in a state of confusion, and a lot of incomplete clues were mixed in her heart, making her unable to figure out the truth of the matter.

Every time it seems to touch the truth, there is a veil in front of it, which makes people unable to see it.

"There may be other intentions." Cang Linchen took her hand and stroked it on her cheek, her hand was a little cold.

As for whether Ouyang Chen is the real murderer, it can only be determined after investigation.

"Alright, rest, it's not early." Cang Rinchen said, pulling her to the edge of the bed, Xia Yinhuan always frowned about his affairs, which was the last thing he wanted to see.

The white horse passed through the gap, and in a blink of an eye, it was the next morning.

It rained lightly, dripping, and the autumn rain was cooler in the next one.

Xia Yinhuan has always slept very little recently, and always has some nightmares when she sleeps, waking up very early, pushing open the window and standing on the Xuantai to look out of the hall.

Behind the East Palace is a courtyard, the courtyard is planted with some seasonal flowers, at this time just after the middle of summer, the tidbits of bitter flowers have fallen to the ground has lost the initial bright red, faintly blackened.

On both sides of the window are two golden laurel trees, which are in early autumn, and the small stamens occupy the branches in groups, and the clusters of rain and dew look very fresh.

Take a deep breath and you can smell the dense richness, with the fresh breath of rain, and even those who are upset can calm down a little.

She didn't know how long she had been standing on the platform, until she felt a little cool, she raised her hand and rubbed her arm, and it happened that a pair of large hands went around her waist from behind and took it into her arms.

"Awake?" Xia Yinhuan didn't look back, leaning on the person behind him with the weight of his body, looking at the scenery outside the window, his voice was lazy.

"Yes." His voice was deep, deep, magnetic, and beautiful.

Xia Yinhuan didn't speak, just quietly leaned on him, absorbing a meager warmth from him, and it was a kind of happiness to lean together quietly.

I just want to grow old together, such a comfortable day, but they can't enjoy it, there are too many twists and turns and obstacles in life, after the forced palace, what she is most worried about is that Cang Linchen will be in danger again.

"Bang bang......" suddenly knocked on the door heavily, and outside the door was the anxious voice of Ye Xinghuan: "Your Majesty, the queen mother has a clue!" ”

Xia Yinhuan immediately broke away from Cang Rinchen's embrace, and Cang Rinchen also came from the short period of tranquility, and reluctantly let go of his hand, and then put on the coat handed over by Xia Yinhuan as he walked: "It's here." ”

His clothes were still draped over his shoulders, and when he opened the door, he saw that Ye Xinghuan's hair was wet, and there were raindrops on his eyebrows, and his clothes were also soaked with rain.

"What a clue." Cang Rinchen hurriedly let go of the door and motioned for him to enter the house, looking at his appearance, he should have been looking for it all night, and then rushed back from Ganlu Temple.

Ye Xinghuan wiped his face with his hand, it was still **, and he didn't enter the hall but just occupied the door and said: "Weichen found some burned wood in the Ganlu Temple, and there are still some blood stains, and this ......"

He spread out his palm, and in his left hand he was holding a Buddhist bead, which was made of sandalwood, and the surface was smooth without the slightest sign of wear.

"Isn't this what the mother usually wears on her hands?" Cang Linchen recognized it at a glance, and the Buddha beads did not have any characteristics to indicate that it belonged to Concubine Yu.

However, at a glance, you can infer that this Buddha bead must be Concubine Yu's, that Ganlu Temple has been abandoned for many years, even if there are Buddha beads, it should be decayed, but the one that was picked up by the night walk is intact.

Coupled with what Jin Pearl said, it can be concluded that Concubine Yu has stayed in the nectar.

"What's the matter with the bloodstains?" Xia Yinhuan paid attention to the first half of Cang Rinchen's sentence: "Could it be that Ouyang Chen ...... to the concubine?"

"It shouldn't be, if Ouyang Chen really caught the murderer of the concubine, he should have a purpose, and he won't do it to the concubine easily." Ye Xinghuan immediately rejected her idea and continued to ask Cang Linchen: "Brother Huang, what should I do now?" ”

Cang Rinchen's brows furrowed and relaxed, and he sighed and said, "You come in first to change into clean clothes, and then go to the Donglin Palace with me to have a look, ask King Wu, and collect all the evidence to make a conclusion." ”

Although King Wu was captured, he was a nobleman after all, and Cang Linchen was not punished in the world, so he could only be detained in the palace.

If he is imprisoned in the prison, it will be equivalent to convicting him of a capital crime, and Cang Linchen is not ruthless enough to kill his mother and brother.

Donglin Palace is the place where the classics in the palace are collected, and a palace gate is vacant, but it happens to be the place where King Wu is under house arrest.

"I'll go, I don't think he will tell you even if you go." Xia Yinhuan proposed, she felt that King Wu should still be grateful to her, but she was very disgusted with Cang Linchen and Ye Xinghuan.

I'm afraid it will only backfire if I ask Cang Rinchen, and it's useless to go if I can't get useful information.

"No way!" Cang Rinchen and Ye Xinghuan rejected her proposal in unison, the two looked at each other, it was Ye Xinghuan who lowered his head, and Cang Rinchen continued: "I can't let you take risks anymore, have you forgotten how he used to treat you?" ”

What happened a while ago, Cang Linchen still has palpitations now, at that time, King Wu was going to kill Xia Yinhuan, if Xia Yinhuan got close to King Wu again, how would the tragedy end again?

"It's okay, he has been imprisoned now, he won't hurt me, you can stand outside the palace and wait for me, cough as a signal, as soon as King Wu has misdeeds, I cough, you can save me quickly, I believe that as long as you two are in him, even if you have bad intentions, you can't help me."

Xia Yinhuan is very confident in the two, and their ability is beyond doubt.

Cang Rinchen glanced at Ye Xinghuan, and finally nodded in agreement, and instructed: "You must be careful, and you must tell us if there is any movement." ”

"Yes." Xia Yinhuan is not stupid, she also knows that if she is kidnapped, the threat will be Cang Linchen, she will not be so stupid anymore, so that the enemy has the opportunity to threaten Cang Linchen.
