"He's just an old man who can't play a role, and Weichen sent him to spend his old age in peace." Gu Qingcheng said calmly. He didn't say that Yu Xicheng had fled as rumored, and in front of King Xuan, there were some things that he couldn't hide.

"It doesn't work? I also want to take advantage of the chaos in the palace to fish for oil and water. Ximen Jingxuan said.

"Didn't you catch nothing?" Gu Qingcheng smiled.

"He is responsible for the fire in the cold palace." Ximen Jingxuan turned over the old accounts.

"Maybe he didn't find anything at the time, he just went to treat Concubine Jiang's injuries." Gu Tingcheng Road.

"Are you defending him?" There was no fluctuation in Ximen Jingxuan's voice, but the meaning of severe accusation was very strong.

On that day, no one knew that Ximen Yin had been to the cold palace, but the news that Jiang Ziyin was injured and looking for the old eunuch was not airtight, and the people of Ximen Jingxuan learned that Jiang Ziyin had an accident at night, so they followed the old eunuch to the cold palace, and found that there was a layer of special powder on the ground of the cold palace that was not discovered.

After the old eunuch treated Jiang Ziyin's injuries, he walked out of the house and paused on the way to the gate of the palace. When he glanced at the place, he clearly found something unusual, which was also what Ximen Jingxuan's people reported to him later.

However, the old eunuch pretended not to see anything and left the cold palace.

After that, the cold palace caught fire.

Because that layer of powder is a specially treated phosphorus powder, although the ignition point is increased, it is still easy to burn at dawn and after the sun shines, because it is mixed with the scorching sun oil of Yuehua Kingdom, as long as there is a fire, it is difficult to clean up.

If Yu Xicheng had said a word more at that time, the situation would have been different, although the cold palace would have caught fire, but the people in the cold palace would not have to be burned to death.

As a result, Yu Xicheng had a ghost in his heart, didn't say anything, and tried in vain to let Concubine Jiang be buried in a sea of fire. On the surface, he healed Jiang Ziyin's injuries, but secretly, he wanted to put Jiang Ziyin to death.

Since then, Ximen Jingxuan has been eyeing Yu Xicheng, and with Ximen Jingxuan's reminder, Gu Qingcheng will easily find the target.

"If he talked too much at that time, the fire in the cold palace would be meaningless, the plan of the three princes would be postponed again, and the prince would have to find another opportunity, and the matter would not end now. This kind of matter related to the safety of the imperial court should be dealt with as soon as possible. Gu Qingcheng said.

Just because no one "discovered" the abnormality of the cold palace, the next thing happened naturally.

Even if Ximen Jingxuan had taken precautions, he could only secretly rescue the people in the cold palace in advance, and the death of Concubine Jiang in the sea of fire must happen, and there will be no Jiang Ziyin in the palace from now on.

"This king doesn't want to argue with you." Ximen Jingxuan said, he knew that Gu Qingcheng would leave an explanation for everything he did, and he didn't have the leisure to debate around an old matter, "Give all Yu Xicheng's confessions to this king." ”

"In this way, Miss Lin has already told the prince all the facts, and there is no need for Weichen to say more." Gu Tingcheng Road.

"You really have a heart for her." Ximen Jingxuan's eyes shrank slightly.

He didn't have that kind of affection for Lin Xin'er, but he could understand the attitude of other men towards Lin Xin'er. Gu Qingcheng went to investigate the drug girl because of Lin Xin'er, and because Lin Xin'er went to investigate the Xia family, and because of Lin Xin'er, Xicheng's confession was cut into two paragraphs.

Now, why did he let Xicheng go?

Ximen Jingxuan didn't seem to be impressed by Gu Qingcheng's attitude, and he didn't intend to get a response from him, so he walked to the wall and stared at a painting hanging on the wall.

"This is made by Old Lady Gu herself." Ximen Jingxuan's gaze fell on the dark red seal.

"Exactly." Gu Tingcheng Road.

"Old lady Gu had a good relationship with King Xiao back then, and King Xiao faded away from the capital after the accident, and no longer cared about court affairs, otherwise with Old Lady Gu's ability, he would definitely be a pillar of the court." Ximen Jingxuan recounted a past incident in a bland manner.

He hadn't been born when that happened, but he seemed to have experienced it himself, and it was very clear.

King Xuan's statement of the old things so clearly made Gu Qingcheng's heart move secretly, standing behind him, raising his eyes to look at the back of the heroic and upright man standing with his hands in his hands.

"Because there is no King Xiao, Gu Dacai doesn't have a preference for people who take refuge, right?" Ximen Jingxuan turned around suddenly, and met Gu Qingcheng's gaze.

"Grandpa said that this world should not be owned by the emperor, they can't afford this world." Gu Qingcheng fearlessly repeated the words of Old Lady Gu, "But in the opinion of Wei Chen, things are already like this, and those who should be effective, and those who should show their ambitions have to be effective." ”

This is also the reason why Old Lady Gu left Beijing, and he Gu Qingcheng won a place in the court by himself.

"You entered the court as an official, but also to follow the last wish of the old lady Gu to find out the truth about King Xiao, the people of the Gu family have never believed the fact that King Xiao died because he lost his love and fell off a cliff overnight." Ximen Jingxuan Road.

Not to mention the Gu family, when he saw the file of the year, he didn't believe it, but it was none of his business, he didn't want to waste his energy, what was indispensable in the palace was to confuse the truth, some people were defeated, and some people succeeded, and the truth was buried from generation to generation.

And the matter of King Xiao, although it has been so many years, but with the care of the Gu family, it will not be buried for a long time.

"Yes, grandpa never believed it, Weichen didn't believe it, and the prince definitely didn't believe it either." Gu Tingcheng Road.

"This king asked people to check too Xicheng, before he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to do things, his qualifications were too mediocre, which is extremely inconsistent with his later performance, he is deliberately covering up his origin." Ximen Jingxuan said, his eyes flashed and paid attention to Gu Qingcheng, "He, like your Gu family, is a person who doesn't believe in the facts of the past, and he is one of King Xiao's subordinates, but he has a different attitude from your Gu family, you want to find out the truth, and he has only one purpose, revenge." ”

"The prince is really smart." Gu Qingcheng unabashedly admired. King Xuan's attention was also too subtle, and he was able to discover heresy from the grievances and entanglements of the Lin family's concubine. He thought that this matter would be over when Yu Xiwan became clear about the affairs of the concubine and the Lin family of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He still looked down on King Xuan.

Grandpa was dead back then, he thought that the Ximen family would decline in the hands of the emperor from now on, and the Qingyuan Dynasty would not last long, but it was a pity that the elders swore to work hard. If grandpa saw that the first emperor had a fifth prince comparable to King Xiao, would he be relieved to live a few more years?

"It was you who deliberately asked Yu Xicheng to cover up half of his confession with this king, and mentioned this king. If you want Yu Xicheng to listen to you, you must have conditions that can hold him, which makes this king have to pay more attention to him. Ximen Jingxuan said.
