Chapter 377: Empty Hole May Not Be Windy
Xie Yunyan also opened the post suspiciously, and the content of the post was to invite Xie Yunyan.
See you tomorrow evening at the Shen Mansion.
The Shen family's parents have already entered Beijing, and they have never found a chance to introduce the two.
Xie Yunyan closed the post, smiled at Qi Chengan, and said, "Brother Qi should also see the same post when he returns home." β
"Huh?" Qi Chengan couldn't wait to see the content of the post, stepped forward and snatched the post from Xie Yunyan's hand, and said, "In that case, I'll take a look hereββ"
Qi Chengan played with the post, carefully read it before and after, and after making sure that the two of them were not getting tired of it behind his back, he grinned and handed the post back to Xie Yunyan: "Then see you in Shen Mansion tomorrow." β
This time, Qi Chengan is completely gone.
Xie Yunyan retracted his gaze with a headache and turned to Ning Shu's room.
After Long Shan sent Mrs. Qi away, he had been thinking about Chen Po, and he was so fascinated that he didn't even notice when Xie Yunyan walked in and put him in.
Xie Yunyan coughed lightly and asked Xiang Longshan, "Do you still think that Chen Po can't be trusted?" β
Long Shan came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "No, the slave doesn't know whether to trust Chen Po now." β
After a short period of contact, Long Shan was already very sure that Chen Po's methods were extraordinary.
What made her think about it for so long was not Chen Po's strength, but Chen Po's background.
She said bluntly: "My lord, the slave maid has grown up in Miao Jiang since she was a child, although she has been imprisoned by the Great Elder for more than ten years, but with the slave maid's understanding of Miao Jiang, I have never heard of such a master in Miao Jiang. β
With this kind of strength, I believe that Chen Po has long seen that Ning Shu's body is a Vientiane Gu.
Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he still prefers to go to the tiger mountains.
There is no complete certainty, even if there is a fifty percent certainty, I believe that Chen Po must have an unknown secret.
This made Long Shan even more confused about her identity.
Xie Yunyan bowed slightly, "But time is limited, if you want to go to Miaojiang in such a short period of time, I'm afraid it's too late to ask clearly." β
Long Shan sighed, "yes-"
It is precisely because the final result is an unknown that you can't get the result even if you want to break your head, so Long Shan is so distressed.
Xie Yunyan suddenly got up and asked Xiang Longshan solemnly, "Don't mention anything else for the time being, can you see if the Gu worms in Madame's body are still alive?" β
Long Shan shook his head, "It's only because the slave maid has limited skills, and she doesn't have any perception of the Gu worms in Madame's body at all." β
Xie Yunyan let out a long sigh, waved his hand and said, "Got it, you go down and prepare some clear porridge." β
"Yes."
β¦β¦
The next evening, the red sunset filled the sky, and everyone could see that tomorrow would be a sunny day.
Because of the close proximity of the two mansions, Xie Yunyan chose to come to the Shen Mansion on foot.
There are only two more old men in the entire Shen Mansion, and the atmosphere is much more lively than before.
After visiting the second elder of the Shen family in turn, Xie Yunyan was also pulled by Shen's father, the former martial arts hall owner, to play a set of swordsmanship before letting him leave.
The night had gradually rendered the sky, and the shadow of the moon on the branches had become clear from haze.
In the crisp spring night, Xie Yunyan and Shen Yu sat in the garden and drank three teas, but there was no trace of Qi Cheng'an.
Xie Yunyan said: "Could it be that you have forgotten?" β
Shen Yu smiled faintly, "It shouldn't be, maybe it's because of something delayed." β
Xie Yunyan's eyebrows were raised, he had known Qi Chengan for so long, he had always been a punctual person.
"Yuan Wu, you follow the road to Qi Mansion to find out if there is any carriage of Lord Qi."
Yuan Wu took the order and retreated.
Shen Yu smiled lightly, not paying too much attention to it, and told the pony to go and fetch some more fruit.
In the face of the night, both of them were silent for a long time.
In the end, Shen Yu couldn't help but speak: "Actually, there is another purpose for finding two people to come today, since Brother Qi hasn't come yet, then I'll tell Brother Xie firstββ"
Xie Yunyan had already seen that Shen Yu had something to say, so he gathered his mind, looked at Shen Yu and said, "Brother Shen, please speak." β
"Brother Xie also knows my origins, and there are many brothers in the Sioux City area who will pay attention to the events happening in the vicinity. Even though I have entered Beijing as an official, my brothers still can't change the habit of many years, and will pass on some strange things to me-"
Shen Yu never had the intention of concealing his channels, and said frankly: "In the past, it was all some trivial things, but yesterday I suddenly received a letter with a different contentββ"
Shen Yu didn't know where to start, he took out the letter from his arms and handed it directly to Xie Yunyan, who read it himself.
Seeing Shen Yu's solemn face, Xie Yunyan took the letter suspiciously, and swept the contents of the letter at a glance.
After reading it once, Xie Yunyan raised his eyes in shock, glanced at Shen Yu, and saw Shen Yu nodding slightly, he turned his gaze to the letter again, and read it carefully.
The content of the letter Xie Yunyan was a hundred unbelievers, and he asked Shen Yu while reading it: "Brother Shen's people have personally verified it?" β
Shen Yu said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have handed it to Brother Xie." β
Xie Yunyan put the letter on the small table, shook his head with a chuckle, "Impossible, King Yan is not that kind of person." β
He and Yan Wang are cousins who have grown up together almost since childhood, and they are still quite confident in their understanding of Yan Wang.
The letter handed out by Shen Yu said that King Yan won a complete victory in this battle against Beiliang, and under the pleasure of being happy, he lived a wanton life in Lingcheng, robbing the people's daughters for daily work, and the mansion where he lived was also singing every night, so unhappy.
This rumor had spread in the town of Jinjing, but it was blocked by the local military officers.
"It's not that I don't believe Brother Shen's words, it's just that I have known King Yan since birth, His Royal Highness King Yan may be greedy for beauty, but under the teaching of the queen's mother, I believe that His Royal Highness King Yan will never do such an immoral thing."
"Empty holes may not come to the wind." Shen Yu said bluntly: "Brother Xie doesn't need to be too excited, even if His Royal Highness King Yan is not that kind of person, but has Brother Xie ever thought about what the result would be if such news reached His Majesty's ears?" β
Xie Yunyan was like an initiation, and he woke up in an instant.
King Yan is now the highest of all the princes.
The emperor also seems to have the idea of establishing a prince.
At this juncture, King Yan relied on his meritorious deeds and did whatever he wanted at the border, so of course he was cutting off his hands and feet, cutting off his best chance to enter the East Palace.
"So, Brother Shen means that this matter may be manipulated by someone later?" Xie Yunyan asked rhetorically.
Shen Yu's trust in King Yan's character was not as firm as Xie Yunyan's, he could only say: "Yes or no, it still needs to be verified." Brother Qi should have experience in such things, listen to what he has to say when he comes? β
Xie Yunyan nodded, for the first time in his life, he was looking forward to Qi Cheng'an appearing in front of him soon.
As for Qi Chengan, he did set off from Qi Mansion on time.
However, Mrs. Qi clamored to eat the sugar gourd in the east of the city before he went out.
Qi Chengan had no choice but to take the small road and rush to the shops in the east of the city to buy a few strings of sugar gourds and send them back to the Qi Mansion, and then took the small road and hurried towards the Shen Mansion.
As soon as the carriage walked out of a remote alley, Qi Chengan lifted the curtain and found that he happened to go around to the back door of King Kang's mansion.
Coincidentally, at this time, King Kang was about to go out.
Qi Chengan hurriedly ordered the coachman to stop, and saluted King Kang's back in the car: "Wechen has seen His Royal Highness King Kang. β
King Kang turned his back to Qi Cheng'an, his figure was slightly stunned, and his silver robe glowed with a cold glow under the moonlight.
"Your Highness is going out so late?" Seeing that King Kang didn't answer, Qi Chengan shouted at the top of his voice.
Just as he was about to get off the carriage to greet him, King Kang finally turned around and smiled faintly at Qi Chengan, "Lord Qi, is it so coincidental?" β
Qi Chengan nodded, "Yes, Weichen made an appointment with Brother Shen and Brother Xie to meet, but I was afraid that it would be too late, so I walked the path, I didn't expect to see His Highness here." β
"Then the king won't delay Lord Qi's important business." King Kang smiled and nodded at Qi Cheng'an, turned around and walked into the back door of the palace.
The entourage of several people also immediately followed, and finally the man closed the back door and glanced at Qi Chengan coldly through the narrow door.
It was a look that made Qi Chengan shiver-
