Chapter 138: Whose People?
Sheng Qingyuan asked them about some details of their daily joints, and then arranged for someone to pretend that they were going to connect with the people above.
During the whole process, Shen Zhao watched from the side, and there was no interruption.
Leaving the dungeon, Sheng Qingyuan noticed that Shen Zhao had been looking at him with a shallow smile and asked, "What are you looking at me like this?"
Shen Zhao smiled and said, "I am lamenting how my lady can be so capable, even so powerful in interrogation."
Sheng Qingyuan said, "I've only heard of such a method, so I wondered if it might be useful one day."
With Shen Zhao's identity, from the moment he decided to return to Beijing and decide to announce his identity, he was destined to have no more peaceful days.
"Then I'll leave the rest to you." Sheng Qingyuan said.
"The lady has already paved the way for me, and I naturally can't drop the chain for the rest." Shen Zhao said with a smile.
In the evening, Shen Zhao successfully found the person who connected with them according to their joint method.
The group of people wanted to take poison and commit suicide as soon as they were caught, but Shen Zhao's people were very skilled, and they directly pulled out their teeth hiding the poison as soon as possible, and then stuffed a stinky sock directly into their mouths.
"I'll go, Xuan Jiu, how many days have you not washed these socks?!"
"I washed it the day before yesterday, and it tastes fresh now, which suits them." Xuan Jiu said confidently.
The person whose mouth was gagged by Xuan Jiu's sock was already about to faint from the stench.
According to some of the characteristics of these people, as well as their confessions, Shen Zhao already had a number in his heart about their identities.
"The person who came this time should be the person of the three princes of Yanbei." Shen Zhao said to Sheng Qingyuan.
"What kind of person is that?" Sheng Qingyuan asked curiously.
"He has a violent temperament, and if anyone does something that is not his intention, he will definitely try every means to torture people to death." Shen Zhao said.
Listening to the introduction of this third prince, Sheng Qingyuan frowned, "If he is really a person with such a temperament, then how do I think it is possible that it will not be him who sent these people?"
Sheng Qingyuan's words, Shen Zhao couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips after hearing this, "We call this a heart and a soul, coincidentally, I think so too."
The three princes are violent and impulsive.
However, the people who acted this time were quite cautious in all aspects.
It is said that if there is a master, there must be a servant, and the master is such a virtuous person, how good can the people below be?
"In addition to the three princes of Yanbei, is there anyone else?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.
"The Four Princes." Shen Zhao dipped his fingers in the water in the teacup and wrote a "want" on the table.
"How?"
"The personality of the fourth prince is diametrically opposed to that of the third prince, he has a relatively gentle personality, and he looks like he doesn't fight for anything."
Sheng Qingyuan continued his words: "But in fact, he is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger."
Shen Zhao raised his lips again, "That's right, in fact, among the several princes, except for the third prince, who is not very brainy, the other princes are possible. It's just that the fourth prince also has a younger sister, and he cares about her very much, and the second princess and Yan Chuling are very incompatible."
"That's only the best possibility, but we still haven't been able to get any definite evidence." Sheng Qingyuan sighed softly.
"If Yan Chuling knows what this totem represents, then it will be easier to find it next." Shen Zhao said.
"What totem?"
Shen Zhao took out a piece of paper, and a totem was drawn on it.
Looking at this totem, Sheng Qingyuan felt a little familiar, but she couldn't tell where she had seen it.
"Have you seen it?" Looking at Sheng Qingyuan's expression, Shen Zhao couldn't help asking.
Sheng Qingyuan frowned and said, "I don't know, I just think this totem has one
It's familiar, but when I think about it, I don't remember it at all."
Thinking like this, Sheng Qingyuan's brain felt a little painful for a while.
Seeing this, Shen Zhao hurriedly said, "If you can't think of it, don't think about it, we still have Yan Chuling to ask."
"Hmm." Sheng Qingyuan, under Shen Zhao's comfort, also stabilized his mood a lot, and he no longer forced himself.
But I still couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
She didn't like it very much, and always felt as if something very important had been forgotten for her, but when she wanted to think about it, she couldn't remember anything.
It's a terrible feeling, and I can't help but feel irritated.
Shen Zhao gently patted her shoulder and silently comforted.
Yan Chuling heard that Shen Zhao and Sheng Qingyuan wanted to invite her to Jingwang Mansion, so she agreed as soon as possible.
Since she returned to the post house, her mind is full of Kangkang, if it is not inconvenient, she even wants to live directly in Jingwang's Mansion, so that she can see Kangkang every day.
"I've seen the prince, princess." Yan Chuling saluted the two.
Sheng Qingyuan smiled and helped her up, and said to her, "You don't need to be so polite."
"I don't know if the princess asked me to come today, but what's the matter?" Yan Chuling tried her best to keep her emotions as calm as possible, but when she spoke, her slightly trembling lips exposed the tension in her heart.
Sheng Qingyuan said with a smile: "I got some very beautiful tricks yesterday, but there are only two people in this mansion, me and the prince, I want to find someone to help me refer to the details, but I can't find anyone, so I think of the princess."
Yan Chuling hurriedly said, "This dare is good, I have always liked these things."
"Then go to my room." Sheng Qingyuan invited her.
Yan Chuling naturally did not refuse, and agreed very happily.
Coming to Sheng Qingyuan's room, Sheng Qingyuan closed the door, then took out the pattern that Shen Zhao got yesterday, handed it to Yan Chuling, and asked her, "I don't know if this pattern princess is familiar?"
Yan Chuling looked at the pattern in front of him and frowned slightly, "This...... It looks a little strange, but it seems like I've seen it somewhere, so let me think about it slowly."
No, she must have seen this pattern before.
But where exactly to see it, you still have to think again.
After thinking for a while, Yan Chuling suddenly said, "I remember, this is the totem of a very famous inn in our Yanbei, that one's business is very good, many people go, I have been there once or twice, and I saw this pattern in that place."
"What's the name of that inn?" Do you know who the real owner of the inn is?" Sheng Qingyuan immediately asked.
Yan Chuling said: "This inn is called Longtian Inn, but I don't know who the real owner of this inn is, I only know that his business is very good, and even my royal brothers will go there often."
"Is every prince going?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.
Yan Chuling nodded and said, "Although they have all kinds of fights in private, they know that their father likes to see their brothers in harmony, so they will make an appointment to have a meal together or listen to a song every once in a while."
"Can you go alone?" Sheng Qingyuan continued to ask.
Yan Chuling said, "They all have them, but the third and fourth brothers will go more. In addition to the delicious food, the girls who serve people are also very good, and the Longtian Inn also has an area dedicated to reading people, that place is very beautiful and quiet, and the fourth brother likes to go there from time to time to sit and read a book."
"Need to go somewhere else to read a book?" Sheng Qingyuan raised his eyebrows and asked.
Yan Chuling chuckled and said, "That place is indeed very good, the small bridge is flowing water, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, it is very poetic."
"Sounds good." Sheng Qingyuan said thoughtfully.
"Why did the princess suddenly ask about such a place?" Yan Chuling asked curiously.
Sheng Qing
Yuan pointed to the totem on the table and said, "Well, this totem is the totem I saw from the dead men who followed you and even tried to kill your siblings."
"That must be from the Longtian Inn, I heard that all the people who enter the Longtian Inn to work must have such a thing engraved on their bodies." Yan Chuling said.
Subsequently, Yan Chu's face was also a little puzzled: "But...... Why did the people from the Dragon Sky Inn come to follow me?"
Sheng Qingyuan bent his lips, put away the paper with the totem drawn, and then said, "Naturally, the person behind it wants to know all your whereabouts."
"That...... Is it possible that the second emperor sister?" Yan Chuling thought for a moment, and then asked tentatively.
"How do you think it's her?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.
Yan Chuling shook her head slightly, "I don't know why, but it's not once or twice that she has sent someone to monitor everything about me, and there will always be people sent from her palace by my side."
After a pause, Yan Chuling continued, "I can't hide it, that maid of mine before was also her person."
"So, you found a time to get rid of her?" Sheng Qingyuan asked.
Yan Chuling was entangled for a moment, and finally nodded, did not deny it, and said truthfully to Sheng Qingyuan: "I came to Da Zhou this time in the hope of finding my younger brother, and then taking my younger brother away from the royal family in Yanbei and living a life that belongs to the two of us, so I can't stay with her people."
Once this matter is discovered, then whether she or Kangkang, she may never have a chance to survive again, so she must make sure that everything can be carried out smoothly and must not be destroyed by anyone, no matter who it is!
"Are you sure you want to leave with Kangkang, even if you have to stay incognito from now on and never return to where you came?" Sheng Qingyuan confirmed to her.
"Yes!" Yan Chuling nodded very hard, his eyes full of determination.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on this for you and see if there's the right time." Sheng Qingyuan said.
"Princess Xie!" Yan Chuling made a big gift to Sheng Qingyuan.
Sheng Qingyuan gave her a preventive shot first, and said to her, "But I'm not sure that I will be able to help you, after all, there are many people staring at me and the prince now."
"yes, I understand." Yan Chuling nodded hurriedly and said, and then gave Sheng Qingyuan a big gift, once again expressing her gratitude to Sheng Qingyuan.
Sheng Qingyuan saw that it was time for lunch, so he left Yan Chuling to have lunch together, and at the same time, he also asked people to bring Kang Kang.
When the two sisters and brothers saw each other, they were naturally extremely happy in their hearts, and Kang Kang ate more than usual at this meal.
Sheng Qingyuan was afraid that Kang Kang would be bored if he stayed in the palace, so he would also pick some suitable times to take Kang Kang out to play.
Although Yan Chuling tried his best to control his emotions, he still couldn't help but pretend to meet Sheng Qingyuan and Kang Kang who were out to play by chance, and then join them.
On this day, several of them were swimming in the lake, and there were a few people hiding in the dense forest by the lake, "Are you sure that is the Eighth Prince?"
"Pretty sure."
"Okay, let's do it!"
