One hundred and seventy-one, check the clues
Jiang Shaoheng shook his head and said solemnly: "This is not necessarily a matter of gods and ghosts, maybe it is caused by sincerity." ”
Jiang Shaoheng was whispering in secret, and the two of them had a good heart.
Jian Huaizhen's face flickered, and he remembered the ups and downs they had gone through together for a while, and he was speechless for a long time.
The two were pondering when Bai gently pushed them in.
When Jian Huaizhen saw her, he forcibly held back the doubts in his heart and asked, "Sister Qing, where have you been during the day?" Why haven't I seen you all day? ”
Bai Qingqing's expression was very calm, and she said calmly: "I have been in this town for some days, but I have not walked around. Now the pear blossoms and peach blossoms are blooming very well, so I went out to enjoy the flowers, who knew that I forgot the time while playing, so that I came back so late. Sister Huaizhen, I'll pay attention to it next time. ”
Jian Huaizhen smiled reluctantly and said, "They are all their own sisters, why be polite." It's also your home, you can go wherever you want to play, you don't have to tell us. ”
Jiang Shaoheng also cooperated on the side.
Bai smiled lightly, and said, "I'll go change my clothes first, I'll come right away, please wait for me for a while." ”
She was just about to leave, when she suddenly smelled a strong smell of herbs, so she turned around and asked, "Is Sister Huaizhen sick?" Why do I smell a strong smell of herbs in this house? ”
Jian Huaizhen hadn't answered yet, Jiang Shaoheng had already spoken, and said: "It's not that your sister Huaizhen is sick, it's that my body is not very good, so I grabbed two pairs of herbs to decoction, both of which are ordinary angelica, wolfberry and the like." ”
Bai listened lightly, covered his blush and smiled: "Brother Jiang, if you are not in good health, you should rest more, and you don't have to say any herbs to me, I don't understand it." ”
After saying that, he flashed into the room to change his clothes.
Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng pretended to be nothing, and still treated Bai lightly as before.
The next morning, Bai Qingqing walked in with a bowl of ginseng tea as usual, and said, "Sister Huaizhen, this is the ginseng tea I prepared for you, you should drink it while it's hot." I see that your body has been a little empty recently, it seems that you don't sleep very well, ginseng tea has the effect of fixing essence, and drinking it is good for the body. ”
Jian Huaizhen took the ginseng tea and said, "Thank you so much for being so careful, after I finished freshening up, I drank the ginseng tea." ”
Bai lightly heard this, a trace of doubt appeared on her face, she didn't know why Jian Huaizhen didn't drink her ginseng tea today as before, but said that it was to wait for freshening up, which made her feel incredible.
She thought of yesterday's medicinal smell again, and said in her heart: "Could it be that there is something wrong with your plan?" ”
She was in shock, and Jian Huaizhen had already noticed that her expression was flickering.
Jian Huaizhen said: "Sister gently, sit here for a while, and I'll freshen up right away." ”
After speaking, Jian Huaizhen quickly finished freshening up, sat down again, and took a few sips of ginseng tea.
Bai lightly saw Jian Huaizhen drink the ginseng tea as usual, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
It turned out that after Jian Huaizhen found that Bai's expression flickered, she knew that if she didn't drink the ginseng tea, it would be impossible to dispel the doubts in her heart, so she had to drink the ginseng tea according to her own words.
It's just that this time it's different from usual, although she drank more than half of it, she still kept a small half in the cup.
While the two were talking, Jiang Shaoheng walked in.
When Bai Qing saw Jiang Shaoheng walking in, he stood up with interest and said, "Brother Jiang and Sister Huaizhen are chatting, I still want to go out to have a look today, enjoy the bright spring light, fly kites, and watch peach blossoms." ”
Jian Huaizhen said: "You should be careful, if you encounter any danger, come back to us." ”
Bai smiled lightly: "The people in this town have always been simple, and there is no danger, Sister Huaizhen, don't worry." ”
With that, she changed into her clothes, got up and went out.
Jian Huaizhen said to Jiang Shaoheng: "I also think Sister Qing is a little weird, she said that there is no danger in this town, but I remember that it was because the green-headed Wang Hansan teased her, and I rescued her from Wang Hansan's hands, but now why is she not afraid of anything." ”
Both of them thought it was very strange.
Jiang Shaoheng glanced at Jian Huaizhen's solemn expression and said, "Okay, it's not interesting for us to discuss these now, why don't we take the leftover ginseng tea you drank to the inn and let the master and the master test it?" ”
Jian Huaizhen nodded in agreement.
So, the two came to the only inn in the town, and Long Yuping and Shen Mingfeng were already waiting for them.
Jian Huaizhen took out the ginseng tea and put it in front of Long Yuping.
Long Yuping put the cup on the edge of her nose and sniffed it, and immediately looked shocked, and said, "We really guessed well, this ginseng tea was really put on the long hatred powder." This person must be an expert in medicine, the amount of long-hatred powder she puts is not much, you know medicine, if she puts too much, you will definitely be discovered. But if you drink this cup of ginseng tea every day, if it weren't for your profound skills, at this time, after two months, you would have already invaded the internal organs with poison. ”
Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng's expressions changed greatly after hearing this.
Long Yuping said beside him: "Don't worry now, after you take my medicine, it will be fine soon." ”
Jiang Shaoheng hurriedly thanked Long Yuping and said, "Thank you, Master." ”
Long Yuping laughed and said, "It's all my own family, so you don't have to be polite." As long as you follow the prescription given to you by the teacher, you will definitely be able to completely solve the poison after taking it for three to ten days in a row. Your master and I are going back too, and I'm sure you'll be able to handle things here. ”
Jian Huaizhen and Long Yuping have not seen each other for some years, and now that the two have only been together for less than a day, they heard that they were going back to West Lake, and they were quite reluctant, and persuaded them: "Since Master is here, you might as well stay in this small town in the south of the Yangtze River for a few more days." ”
Long Yuping smiled: "We can't stay longer, Fengpingju can't leave us for a day." What's more, your master's body is not very good, and it is not easy to drift. ”
Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng saw that they couldn't keep them, so they had to say, "Since that's the case, let's send the master and the master on the road." ”
So, Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng sent Long Yuping and Shen Mingfeng all the way out of the town, and saw the two riding away from the dust, so they returned home together.
Jian Huaizhen saw that Long Yuping had been here for less than a day before leaving, thinking that she had traveled thousands of miles for herself, and felt very melancholy.
When she was sad, Jiang Shaoheng came over and asked, "Sister Huaizhen, are you still thinking about the master and the master?" ”
Jian Huaizhen nodded and said, "I haven't seen my master and master for many years, and now that I see them, both of them have gray temples, and before I know it, they are already old, and the years are so consumed." ”
Jiang Shaoheng saw that she was very emotional, so he also sighed on the side.
When the two of them talked about the old days, they laughed heartily for a while, and saddened their souls for a while.
Unconsciously, an hour or two passed, and as they chatted, Jian Huaizhen suddenly sighed: "In the past, Bai Qingqing regarded me as his own sister, and the two of us have lived in this Jiangnan alley for so long, and the sisterhood is deep, but I didn't expect this Bai Qingqing to come to plot against me." ”
Jiang Shaoheng heard Jian Huaizhen talk about Bai lightly poisoning, and his face suddenly became very solemn.
He looked at Jian Huaizhen and said clearly and forcefully, "Who sent Bai Qingqing?" Do you know who is behind this? ”
Jian Huaizhen shook her head, and she said, "I can't think of anything, I don't have many enemies in my life. At that time, I had offended Concubine Ru, but Concubine Ru's incident was many years ago. During the Xuande period, I also offended the concubine of the harem, and now the concubine is also dead. Looking closer, I haven't been seen in the rivers and lakes for twenty or thirty years, and I haven't offended anyone. Thinking about it again, the only people who want to offend are Cao Jixiang, Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen. Cao Jixiang and Shi Heng are already dead, could it be that it was Xu Youzhen who sent someone? ”
"Xu Youzhen? Didn't Xu Youzhen fill the army in Yunnan? Does he have so much power to send a man to plot against you? ”
Jiang Shaoheng looked at Jian Huaizhen with some incredulity, obviously he didn't agree with Jian Huaizhen's idea.
Jian Huaizhen calmed down and pondered for a while, and then said to Jiang Shaoheng very solemnly: "Brother Jiang, I think this matter is a whole bureau, from beginning to end, I fell into the trap of other people's cloth, I didn't expect that my Jian Huaizhen I would be buried in a wise life." ”
Jiang Shaoheng saw that she was a little desolate, so he comforted her.
He knew that Jian Huaizhen had always had a heart higher than the sky, and he had never lost to others in his life, but now that he had made a mistake in this matter, he would inevitably have some resentment in his heart.
Jiang Shaoheng persuaded Jian Huaizhen for a while, and Jian Huaizhen slowly told the matter.
She said: "When I first met Bai Qingqing, it was in the dust washing workshop, and I felt very strange at the time, how can there be people in the world who look so much like my Qingqing sister. Their appearance is already seven or eight points similar, I think it's very strange, Bai Qing's every move, her charm, her smile, is enough to look like my dead Qingqing girl, and the most incredible thing is that her name is also Bai Qingqing. I only felt ecstatic at the time, and I didn't think much about it, I just thought that God had mercy on me, and when I lost a girl, it gave me a light girl. Now that I think about it, it turns out that this was a trap set by someone else from the beginning. ”
Jiang Shaoheng agreed: "That's right, in fact, from the first time I saw Bai Qingqing, I felt that there was something wrong with this matter. There are two people in the world who are so similar, why are they actually bumped into us? It's just that if you run into it, even the name is exactly the same. A coincidence can be said to be a coincidence, but if there are so many coincidences, it is not a coincidence, it must be deliberate. ”
Both of them felt that the division made sense.
Jian Huaizhen continued: "There is one thing that strikes me very strangely to say. ”
Jiang Shaoheng asked on the side, "What's the matter?" Sister Huaizhen might as well come and listen, one person counts short, two people count long, maybe we can get what results after we have discussed. ”
Jian Huaizhen looked at Jiang Shaoheng with very trusting eyes, and she said, "Yes." This Bai Qingqing seems to be very familiar with my daily moves, and she seems to know that I have an inseparable complex for the dead Qingqing in my heart, so she imitates Bai Qingqing in every move. And her preferences, her smile, and the way she speaks are very similar to Qingqing. And she is very familiar with my habits, what I like and dislike, she seems to know very well, which makes people feel strange when you think about it. ”
Jiang Shaoheng immediately knotted his brows when he heard this, and frowned: "If that's the case, this matter is not so simple. If it's really someone sent by Xu Youzhen, how could he know so much about your preferences, is it-"
When Jiang Shaoheng said this, his face changed greatly, and he looked at Jian Huaizhen with a look of surprise.
Jian Huaizhen had never seen Jiang Shaoheng panic like this, even when he was in danger, why did he suddenly become like this.
Jian Huaizhen felt very strange, so he asked with a pleasant face, "Brother Jiang, why have you become so frightened?" But did you think of something? ”
Jiang Shaoheng smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "That's it, most of the things I thought of were not true. ”
When Jian Huaizhen heard him say this, the more he felt that the matter was suspicious, and continued to ask: "Brother Jiang, if you think of something, you might as well say it and listen to it with me, maybe it can help the matter." ”
Jiang Shaoheng had no choice but to say: "If I say something wrong, don't blame me." ”
Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly.
Jiang Shaoheng said what he had considered, and he said: "Since this person is so familiar with Sister Huaizhen's every move, he even knows everything you usually like and dislike, and he knows that you have such a strong complex for Bai Qing, she must be the person next to the princess sister." But thinking about the people around us, who can have the heart to be unfavorable to the princess and sister, I think about it, but I only think of one person. ”
When Jiang Shaoheng said this, he stopped talking, obviously he was hesitating to tell Jian Huaizhen the name of this person.
Jian Huaizhen looked at Jiang Shaoheng, her eyes were full of affection, and she said, "Brother Jiang, we have gone through so many ups and downs together, is there anything we can't say between us?" If you think of anything that is, I don't blame you for thinking that you are wrong. ”
Jiang Shaoheng said it at this time, and he said: "The person I think of is the emperor. ”
"What? It's the emperor. ”
Although Jian Huaizhen was ready in her heart, she was still taken aback when she heard Jiang Shaoheng's words.
"Why do you suspect that person is the emperor, Brother Jiang? The emperor is my nephew, he shouldn't have done this to me, not to mention that I have done so many things for him, the emperor in my heart should not be so unkind. ”
Jiang Shaoheng sighed and said, "People often say that a companion is like a tiger, but I am just guessing. I can't understand what the emperor's personality is, as clear as Huaizhen's sister, but I think that since the emperor was able to listen to other people's slander and kill Yu Qian, he was nothing more than a matter of humility and support for Emperor Jing, and now the princess sister is far away in the south of the Yangtze River and can't reach the affairs in the capital, could it be that someone took the opportunity to slander the emperor? Let the emperor feel that Princess Huaizhen is a great master"
Jian Huaizhen shook her head decisively, she looked at Jiang Shaoheng and said very seriously: "Brother Jiang, I know that what you don't care about is not unreasonable, and it is also for my sake, but I dare to say that this matter must not be done by the emperor." I still know the emperor very well about this child, although he has his indecisive side, he treats people very generously, and I am no exception. He now has nothing but respect for me in his heart and nothing else. ”
Jiang Shaoheng saw that Jian Huaizhen said so decisively, so he didn't continue.
He has always believed in Jian Huaizhen's judgment, and he has not seen much about the emperor, and he does not know much about it.
Since Jian Huaizhen swore so much, the emperor would definitely not be unfavorable to her, maybe the person behind it was not the emperor.
"But is it Zhu Qizhen, who is it? Who can understand Jian Huaizhen's habits clearly? and carefully arranged such a perfect trap, wanting to kill her? ”
The two of them discussed and discussed, but they couldn't discuss anyone, they decided not to expose Bai Qingqing's conspiracy for the time being, and slowly find out who the person behind this was.
Bai Qingqing definitely didn't expect that her conspiracy had been exposed in front of Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng at this moment.
Every day, she often goes out to play during the day, going out to see peach blossoms and fly kites.
Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng felt that she often went out, maybe she had something to hide from herself, so they decided to follow Bai Qingqing.
They followed Bai Qing for three days in a row, but there was still no clue.
Bai Qingqing went out every day to see peach blossoms and fly kites, and he didn't do anything else.
After Jian Huaizhen and Jiang Shaoheng failed, they did not give up, but paid more attention to Bai Qing's every move.
At this moment, since they knew that Bai Qingqing was sent by someone else, they had to monitor her every move. Otherwise, they will be murdered in the end, and they don't know who did it.
Jiang Shaoheng wanted to protect Jian Huaizhen wholeheartedly, so he came thousands of miles to Jiangnan to advance and retreat with Jian Huaizhen, so he did not absolutely allow anyone to hurt Jian Huaizhen.
Although Jian Huaizhen followed Bai Qingqing without results, she found a very strange phenomenon.
In the past, Bai Qing often released carrier pigeons, and she told Jian Huaizhen that the carrier pigeons were released to her adopted sister. But now a long time has passed, but she has never seen her let go of the carrier pigeon again, could it be that the person who contacted her has come to Jiangnan? ”
Jian Huaizhen told Jiang Shaoheng his thoughts, and Jiang Shaoheng also agreed.
He said to Jian Huaizhen: "In this case, then Bai Qingqing going out every day is definitely not untargeted, we might as well follow her for a few more days, maybe we can find out any clues." ”
Jian Huaizhen thought about it for a long time, and she felt that she could not think of a better way than this.
