Chapter 16 Secret Detective Chonghua Palace

Thinking like this, the sound of the piano wafted outside the window, melodious, steady, like a lullaby, soothing people's minds, and also like a requiem, seducing people's hearts.

Ji Lianmei was curious, put on her coat and slowly walked to the Huxin Pavilion not far away. The sound of the piano gradually became clear, and the figure of the young man sitting in front of the guqin gradually became clear.

It's really him.

The girl leaned quietly on the pillar of the pavilion in the center of the lake, her eyes were blurred, and it seemed that what a dreamlike scene was presented in front of her.

At the end of the song, the young man turned around, gently and quietly stretched out his slender hand, and called softly: "Come here, mercy." ”

The soft call was like the magic voice of a mermaid, and Ji Lianmei somehow took his wrist and sat beside him obediently.

"Why are you here, you are still sitting here playing the piano so blatantly this time, I remember that the relationship between your brothers does not seem to be very good."

"I can't sleep, but I have something on my mind?" Ji Yucheng directly skipped these questions, smiled indifferently, and asked her.

"Ji Yucheng, do you know the five-star sun?"

Ji Yucheng's hand gradually detached from the strings and asked, "What are you asking for?" ”

"I just, curious, curious."

Ji Yucheng said slowly: "The five-star sun, and even the day of the sun solstice, represents the image of the Son of Heaven who flies for the nine heavens, and it also means that the world changes its lord, so for the monarch, this vision is a disaster." Before each five-star day, the monarch will try his best to get rid of those who are dangerous to him. The first emperor of our dynasty ordered all the princes to be killed in order to survive the disaster of the five-star sun. ”

"I see....... "Ji Lianmei nodded thoughtfully.

"Why didn't you call me princess today?"

"It's nothing, I just want to change my mind." Ji Yucheng's slightly cold hand slowly grabbed Ji Lianmei's hand, and there was a hint of autumn waves in her beautiful eyes.

He leaned Ji Lianmei into his arms, and Ji Lianmei naturally leaned on his shoulder, and finally felt more relaxed, but suddenly sleepiness hit, and after a while, she fell asleep.

Ji Yucheng looked at the girl's delicate sleeping face, Juanxiu's brows furrowed slightly, and hugged her tighter.

At least until you hate me, I want to like you well.

When Ji Lianmei woke up, she had returned to the wing room of the main hall, and Ji Yucheng had long since disappeared.

What a weirdo, who came and went without a trace.

Today, Ji Jingchen invited the star official to come and explain to Ji Lianmei the situation of divination of the five-star sun.

From the mouth of the star official, Ji Lianmei probably knew that the so-called five-star sun is actually the natural scene produced by the five planets shining on the earth at the same time without the obstruction of other planets, the sun and the moon. And the next five-star sun flare will be two years later.

Two years should be enough time to overturn the mother's unjust case more than 20 years ago. But where do you start......

Ji Lianmei called the maid who was with her and said, "You go and prepare a carriage, I want to enter the palace." ”

"No, princess, you can't enter the palace without a summons." The maid replied with a lop ear.

Yes, I almost forgot, this is not Liu Guo, she can't go in and out of the palace at will. What a hassle......

However, Ji Jingchen is the emperor's favorite son, if you go to beg him, it should not be difficult to enter the palace.

At this time, it happened to be the time to go to the court, and Ji Jingchen really readily agreed to Ji Lianmei's request and took her to the palace.

In front of the Jinluan Palace, on the double dragon chair, the middle-aged man in the dragon robe was the father she had never met. Seeing him this time, Ji Lianmei also made a great determination. She didn't know what to do with this man who was the lord of a country. This person who forced her mother to be disheartened and ruthless was her father who had missed her for twenty-four years.

After a few simple greetings with him, Ji Lianmei got the permission of Emperor Wu and retreated to the palace to do her own business.

The palace is very large, and the courtyard pattern of the harem is very similar, so it is almost impossible to find the Chonghua Hall where my mother lives by myself.

So, Ji Lianmei inquired to the palace maid beside her: "Excuse me, is there a concubine in this palace?" ”

As soon as the palace maid heard the name of the concubine, she looked left and right in a panic, and after making sure that there was no one around, she lowered her voice and leaned into Ji Lianmei's ear and said, "Princess, you must not mention this concubine, she is a taboo in this palace." ”

"Oh? Is there anything different about this concubine? Ji Lianmei asked.

"The princess doesn't know anything, this concubine ..... It is rumored to be a demon girl, and there are all kinds of strange monsters in her room. For example, there is a box that can sing, and there is a bottle that gives off the fragrance....."

Isn't this an mp3 and a perfume....... Just because of this, she was treated as a demon girl, and her mother was really wronged.

"This sister, can you take me to Concubine Yun's residence? I'd also like to know what the enchantress's house looks like. ”

"This ......" The palace maid looked embarrassed, and finally nodded silently, and took Ji Lianmei to a dilapidated palace.

Chonghua Hall is very close to the emperor's bedroom, and when I want to come to my mother here as a concubine, I must have enjoyed all the grace. But now, it's a matter of things.

Ji Lianmei ordered the palace maid to wait outside the palace and walked into the Chonghua Hall alone. The hall was already overgrown with weeds and cobwebs, but a portrait hanging in the center of the temple was as clean as new.

The woman in the painting is quiet and smiling, and she is in the prime of her life.

It's really a mother...... Ji Lianmei knelt down in front of the portrait with a puff, tears slowly sliding down her face, and her hands trembled uncontrollably.

Two times apart, you are all right? I was where you used to be, very, very, missed you very, very......

After a short period of sentimentality, Ji Lianmei remembered what was going on and leaned against the wall to check the Chonghua Palace. But twenty years later, there are hardly any clues left. The only clues were a belt made of gold and jade and a strand of blonde hair abandoned in the corner. Ji Lianmei carefully put away these things, hid them, and left the palace.

It seems that if you want to overturn the case, you still need to investigate the ins and outs of what happened back then. I'm afraid it will be difficult to enter the palace in the future, so I can only try to understand the events of the year from others.

At night, Wu Jinggong summoned Ji Yucheng to see him.

"Your Majesty, the second princess today...... went to Chonghua Palace, behaved strangely, and seemed to have an old friendship with that person. "In the morning, follow Ji Lianmei's palace maid to the emperor and pray.

"Well, let's go down." Wu Jinggong waved his hand and asked Ji Yucheng, "Cheng'er, what do you think?" ”

Ji Yucheng took a sip of tea and said, "It's just a girl, what kind of uproar can be made, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry." Besides, the weather has been fine recently, and there is no disaster, so there is no need to worry about her. ”

"Even if it's a girl, you have to guard against it......."

Ji Yucheng was sipping tea while quietly observing Wu Jinggong's expression.

In his opinion, although Wu Jinggong is a Buddha who eats fasting and worships Buddha among the people, and has no quarrel with the world, he actually has a city government in his heart and has great ambitions. It's a bit like him.

The matter of Chonghua Hall must have threatened his imperial position, so he would show such an anxious and uneasy look.

"Your Highness, what's the situation?" On the carriage back home, Xiao Yige asked.

"Ji Lianmei secretly spied into Chonghua Hall today and touched Wu Jinggong's scales, I don't think he will just give up. Situ, you must protect Lianmei during this time. ”

"Your Highness, protect Princess Liu Guo? In case the lord of the country blames it, it will be ......"

"Don't worry, my father won't blame me, I think the case of Chonghuadian is a good opportunity to pull Wu thief off the throne. At that time, taking advantage of the shallow foundation of the new emperor, he can lead the troops to take Wu Yue in one fell swoop. Ji Yucheng smiled slightly, but exuded a cold aura like a rakshasa.

Xiao Yige sighed secretly, worthy of being called a smiling boy with a seven-trick exquisite heart. Although his little master was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, his mind and strategy were far beyond his reach.

Compared with Xiao Yige's self-comfort, Ji Yucheng frowned, rarely put away his smile, and looked out the window thoughtfully.

In fact, he was not sure about the plan for this temporary change. The reason why he said this was only out of personal feelings.

Ji Yucheng is a person who can clearly recognize and face his true feelings, and his own concentration is extremely strong, otherwise he would not have spent twelve years in the dark in a foreign country.

But Ji Yucheng didn't expect that in the face of the love of his children, he would be like an ordinary man and do everything to protect her. Even if it is to disrupt the long-planned plan to rejuvenate the country and give up the low-hanging fruit.

Ji Lianmei, this is the last time I will help you, after the Chonghuadian case, the Wu thief abdicated, the Liu Song soldiers attacked the city, your life or death, I no longer care, resigned to fate.

"Situ, go to Yanwang's Mansion."

At this time, Ji Lianmei was busy investigating people and things more than 20 years ago.

In a secret book, Ji Lianmei found that Wu Jinggong was just a prince when he married his mother, and one night, the elderly emperor suddenly died, leaving behind the edict to establish him as the emperor, although this matter was quite controversial among the government and the opposition at that time, but since it was the will of the first emperor, the ministers had nothing to say.

As soon as Wu Jinggong ascended the throne, he immediately named his mother a concubine. It can be seen that Concubine Yun was in full bloom at that time. But on the second day after Concubine Yun was crowned concubine, rumors spread in the palace that Concubine Yun had an affair with a foreign prince. Wu Jinggong was furious and sent the concubine to the dungeon and beheaded after the autumn.

Ji Lianmei has already learned about the rest of the matter from Youzixian.

In the record in the secret writing, Ji Lianmei always felt a little suspicious, but after reading it back and forth a few times, there seemed to be no problem.

No, there must be something strange about this. Ji Lianmei thought so in her heart, so she hurriedly ran from the dormitory to the carriage in front of the Yan Wang's Mansion, wanting to go to the palace to find out what was going on.

"Go to the palace." Ji Lianmei instructed the groom.

"Yes, Princess." The coachman replied in a gloomy voice, unconsciously pulling down the edge of the hat the moment Ji Lianmei got into the car.

Now that Ji Yutuo is not in the mansion, it is impossible to find a previous reason to follow him into the palace.

Along the way, Ji Renmei was thinking about how to sneak into the palace to find someone, until the carriage jolted violently, shaking her mind.

Ji Reimi is annoyed and is trying to slow down the coachman. Suddenly, a spirit thought: The road to the palace is a flat avenue, how can it be as bumpy as a mountain road? And...... The carriage seems to have been gone for a long time.
