Shen didn't expect Xue Yu to really hope to be alive, even if he was as cold as he couldn't help but ask urgently: "Do you know who inquired about, has anyone seen that woman's face?" ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head: "No, Shi An said that the people on the dock said that those who inquired were just passing through Yong'an, and they looked like they were also casually asked, and they only stayed there for less than a day before leaving, and no one inquired about it after that, but some people said that those people who inquired about the news looked like people from Beijing, dressed richly, and spoke official dialect and Beijing accent." ”

Shen looked slightly, the people in Beijing?

Does that mean that Xue Yu is very likely to be rescued by people passing by the nearby capital after the sun falls into the water, and Yong'an is already some distance away from Qi Town, where Xue Yu fell into the water, and all the way to the north, it is impossible for Xue Yu to float to that vicinity in the water by herself.

In other words, it is very likely that the person who salvaged her went north to inquire about her identity by the way.

Does that mean that Xue Yu is very likely to have been brought back to the capital?

Shen thought of this possibility, his face was happy, he had never done anything bad in his life, but he felt guilty about Xue Yan's matter.

If Xue Yu is alive, he will be able to face Xue Nuo calmly, but ......

His face was overjoyed, how can he find a woman in this huge capital?

The most important thing is that Xue Nuo once said that her and Xue Wei's original plan was to enter Beijing through the Hu family, and Xue Wei also knew her plan, so if she really arrived in the capital, the matter of Cao Yun was so uproarious, even if she stayed in the back house, it stands to reason that she should be able to find out about Qi Zhen's affairs, and even find out Xue Nuo's whereabouts.

But she never showed up......

Jiang Cheng asked, "Childe, Xue Yan's matter... Do you want to tell the inter-hospital? ”

"Don't be busy yet."

Shen hesitated for a moment and said, "Arnold always thought that Xue Yu was dead, and now tell him, in case it is not Xue Yan......"

Although it may be, no one can guarantee that it will be certain, just in case, he still remembers Xue Nuo's crazy appearance after Xue Yu fell into the water.

It was not easy for Xue Nuo to temporarily hold Xue Yan's death, but if he gave hope, he would be dashed.

He was afraid that Xue Nuo would go crazy again.

is also afraid that she will do whatever it takes to deal with the Chengguo Mansion if she is stimulated.

"You sent a letter to Shi An to ask him not to return to Beijing in a hurry, and continue to follow Yong'an all the way north to inquire about the news, to see if he can find out anything, and you will also go to various houses in Beijing to see if anyone has brought a good-looking strange woman into Beijing in the past three or four months."

After a pause, he remembered that Xue Nuo and that Wang Da had described Xue Yu's appearance, and he said, "By the way, go and check the rich family of the official eunuch in Beijing during this time, who has taken concubines and married wives, or whether there are any people who are suddenly particularly beautiful in those places in Beijing who seek pleasure......"

Jiang Cheng was stunned: "You mean ......"

Is it possible that Xue Yu has entered the party?

Shen pursed his lips, not blaming him for thinking the worst.

If Xue Yu is really alive and in the capital, but she has not come to look for Xue Nuo, either something is wrong or her freedom is restricted.

She was down-and-out and broke her leg to deliberately cover up her fashion and be coveted, and even let Chai Chunhua not hesitate to rob her on the street, so her appearance may not be worse than that of Xue Nuo today.

No one knows what will happen to such a person after he is in trouble.

Jiang Cheng obviously thought of this, and hurriedly took what Shen said to heart: "I'll let people inquire later." ”

Seeing that Shen was preoccupied, he said,

"Don't worry too much, you can be rescued if you break your leg and fall into Lingjiang, that girl must be blessed with a great fate, and now it's better than before, and it's not in vain that you left Shi An and them in Jiangnan for so long."

Shen tugged at the corners of his mouth and said a low "um".

It's better than no news at all.

Because of Xue Yan's matter, Shen Ke's heart was chaotic and calmed down for the time being, and his mind was full of chaos and was temporarily suppressed.

He took the album written by Meng Dehui to the East Palace, and the prince was shocked and unbelievable when he saw it, even if he had long known that his aunt had been wronged back then, but when he really saw that the album was very different from what was "confiscated" back then, it was not even as good as eleven, and the prince's heart was also hit hard.

"How is that possible...... Father, how can he ......"

The prince looked embarrassed as he gritted his teeth.

At that time, Princess Yongzhao was extravagant, corrupt and bribed without authority, forcibly occupied the people's fat and oppressed the people, and embezzled the court's money.

This is her biggest crime in addition to plotting rebellion and killing courtiers, and it is also a thing that arouses the excitement of the people, and even insults and curses, and hates that they can't dig up their bones and eat their flesh and blood.

After the seizure of Princess Yongzhao's mansion, it is said that the boxes containing gold, silver and jewelry were placed on the entire main street of the imperial city, and the deeds of the field shops were filled with countless boxes, and those things were later entered into the imperial treasury, and Emperor Tianqing personally nodded, and even the household department personally liquidated.

The crown prince didn't suspect that Meng Dehui was lying, and he didn't think that Xue Nuo would fool them about this kind of thing, but if what was written in this book was true, what were the confiscated books and the things that were put into the warehouse by the emperor?

If he had to be instructed by the top, or even someone to carry it for him, even if Meng Dehui had the courage to show off his arithmetic and report it into the palace with such an exaggerated amount, otherwise, if the palace was more serious, where would he get something to fill the vacancy?

Shen Zhongkang and the prince's subordinates were also extremely silent when they saw the book.

It is hard for anyone to believe that before the rebellion was investigated, the emperor and courtiers first set off the matter of the emperor and the courtiers teaming up to frame the sputation.

"It's just ...... It's ridiculous!! Wu Jinliang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

Even if Shen Zhongkang is old, it is difficult to hold back the ridicule at this moment: "Once the princess regent, she held more than 10,000 people in power, and only 30,000 silver coins were corrupt and bribed, heh!" ”

How sad!

The crown prince looked at the paper and his face changed constantly, and he was also extremely disappointed in Emperor Tianqing, it was his father, he used to think that he was a god of heaven, even if the two of them had a deep disagreement in the past few years, his father and emperor gradually became dim and liked to play power, and he had never been as disappointed in him as he is now.

That's my aunt, who personally assisted my father to ascend the throne and pacified the world for him, and he can do the same, which also makes the prince more and more determined about something.

The prince took a deep breath and carefully put away the piece of paper, then looked up at Shen and said, "Xue Nuo let people go to prison?" ”

Shen hesitated, but he still didn't say anything about Xue Nuo letting people change Meng Dehui and send people back.

Whether it is stealing the token of Dali Temple, or the ability to enter and exit the edict at will, these are too much to be feared by the monarch.

It may be nothing for the prince to use Xue Nuo now, but in case the prince ascends to the throne in the future......

Shen acquiesced to the prince's words.
