Chapter 219: The Storm Rises

"Miss Kou?" Seeing Xin Yu, King Xiu was a little surprised.

Xin Yu didn't feel too surprised.

Xiuwangfu is adjacent to Qingwangfu, this teahouse is close to Qingwangfu, and it is naturally close to Xiuwangfu, and it is normal to meet Xiuwangfu by chance.

"I've seen His Royal Highness King Xiu."

"Miss Kou doesn't have to be polite. Are you here for tea? King Xiu's tone was familiar.

Xin Yu thought of the friendliness of King Xiu at the Lotus Garden Banquet, and responded politely: "Well, come and drink tea." Is His Royal Highness King Xiu also coming for tea? ”

King Xiu smiled: "This restaurant is quite clean, close to the palace, and occasionally comes." ”

"Then don't delay His Royal Highness King Xiu to drink tea." Xin Yu bent his knees, took his leave, and walked to the carriage.

King Xiu watched Xin Yu get into the carriage and turned to look up.

Half of his face was revealed by the window on the second floor, and King Xiu recognized it as King Qing at a glance.

King Qing also recognized him.

One of the brothers sat upstairs and the other stood on the street, their eyes touching each other.

King Qing sneered and withdrew his gaze.

King Xiu lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment, then turned around and went back to the palace.

A few days later, Xin Yu silently waited for the news from He Qingxiao's side, but suddenly there was a rumor: Jin Linwei was looking for Mr. Songling these days, and Mr. Songling was the person who had been missing for many years!

More than ten years have passed, and the government and the opposition seem to have long forgotten the existence of this queen, but in fact, this rumor immediately caused an uproar.

In the court, the return of Empress Xin will undoubtedly change some of the patterns. Among the people, some people still remember the queen's kindness, and for more people, there is no more lively gossip than this.

The Gu Changbo Mansion, which was immersed in grief, did not react, and some of the more perceptive mansions began to speculate whether Gu Changbo's death would have something to do with the queen's mother.

Otherwise, there is no news from the queen mother who has been missing for many years, and there is no news at night, as soon as the holy Gu Changbo was killed, how could there be news?

When King Qing heard this, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

It's been okay these years, when he was a child, he heard about this queen from his mother.

It is said that this queen is narrow-minded and jealous, and she did not allow her father to fill the harem, and her father even indulged her, only daring to secretly accept concubines.

There is such an outrageous thing in the world, if this queen comes back, how can the mother concubine and others have a good life.

King Qing's first reaction was to enter the palace to see Concubine Shu, and soon thought of Xin Yu's words.

Miss Kou said that his luck was not very good after that, and he was accurate again!

The palace staff also advised: "I haven't seen Your Highness today, Your Highness had better go into the palace less, it's better to be quiet than to move." ”

"Low-key ......," King Qing muttered.

"What did Your Highness say?"

King Qing returned to his senses: "It's nothing. I'm going out for a trip. ”

The staff's face changed: "Your Highness, why don't you go to find Miss Kou?" ”

King Qing was stunned: "How does Mr. know?" ”

He went to Qingsong Bookstore a few times, but he couldn't guess it all at once, right?

The staff guessed from another angle: "It is rumored that Mr. Songling is related to the missing Empress Xin, but Mr. Songling is missing." The minister knew that His Royal Highness wanted to inquire about Mr. Songling from Miss Kou, but now there are probably a lot of people staring at Miss Kou, and His Royal Highness is in a sensitive situation, so it is better to avoid suspicion......"

King Qing nodded slowly: "Mr. has a point. ”

Sure enough, what Miss Kou said was true, and he should be low-key recently.

King Qing stopped thinking about going to find Miss Kou, and Xin Yu sent someone to find He Qingxiao.

This news was obviously not released by Jin Linwei.

When Shi returned, he brought back a message: "Lord He has entered the palace." ”

"Go get busy." Xin Yu's face was calm, and he was worried about He Qingxiao in his heart.

When Lord He entered the palace at this time, I am afraid that he will be trained.

At this time, He Qingxiao was in the palace, facing Emperor Xingyuan with a gloomy face.

"Why did the news of Jin Linwei's search for Mr. Songling get out?"

Of course, the source of Emperor Xingyuan's news is not only Jinlinwei.

"It's that His Majesty is not strict, please forgive your majesty."

"Is there any progress on Mr. Songling's whereabouts?" Emperor Xingyuan asked again.

He Qingxiao lowered his head and said, "Not yet." ”

"The person I was looking for couldn't find it, but the news was spreading. Qingxiao, you can disappoint me. ”

He Qingxiao knelt down: "The minister is guilty." ”

Emperor Xingyuan sat on the dragon chair, condescendingly looking at the young man who was kneeling on the ground to plead guilty, and his expression became more and more heavy.

After the suffocating silence, the emperor's voice sounded without hearing the joy and anger: "I don't believe that Mr. Songling can't find a living person, I want a result before the end of the month." Qingxiao, don't let me down again. ”

"Yes."

Walking out of the palace, the warm sun is blowing in your face.

Spring is coming to an end, and it won't be long before April begins.

At the end of the month, it was the deadline given by Emperor Xingyuan.

He Qingxiao returned to the yamen, and his subordinates reported the matter of Miss Kou sending someone to find her.

He nodded, and instead of arranging anything immediately, he turned out the secret report he had just received.

This is a secret report from Dingbei.

After reading the secret report again, he went out.

In Qingsong Bookstore, the shopkeeper Hu didn't play with the abacus for a while, and he was a little worried.

Mr. Songling has a big deal!

Originally, these royal relatives and nobles were far away from their little people, but in the past few months, they have become commonplace. If Mr. Songling had something, their bookstore would be greatly affected.

"Your Excellency is here." Liu Zhou saw the white-bearded old man who walked in, and hurriedly greeted him.

It was Meng sacrifice wine.

Since I have seen "Painted Skin" at Meng Sai Wine, although I am not a frequent visitor to the bookstore, I will occasionally wander in and stroll.

Shopkeeper Hu also came back to his senses and warmly greeted Meng Saijiu.

"You're busy." Meng Xijiu waved his hand and walked towards the bookshelf, but his eyes swept towards the door of the reception room.

The green cloth curtain was lifted, and Xin Yu walked out.

"Lord Sake."

Meng Xijiu smiled and asked, "Miss Kou, do you have any new books?" ”

"A few more scriptures and anthologies have been reprinted, do you want to see them?"

"Hasn't the third volume of "Journey to the West" been released yet?" Meng Xijiu asked as he walked deeper into the bookshelf.

Xin Yu naturally followed: "It was going to come out, but I didn't expect that there were suddenly some rumors about Mr. Songling recently, and the folk girl felt that it was safe to come out later." ”

Meng Xijiu glanced deeply at the girl with a calm expression.

Rows of bookshelves, the fragrance of ink lingers.

"Miss Kou thinks it's a rumor?" Meng Xijiu asked suddenly.

Xin Yu showed just the right amount of stunned on his face, and then shook his head: "I don't know." I have dealt with Mr. Songling a few times in business, and I have not asked him about his personal affairs. ”

"That's right." Meng sacrificial wine elongated his voice, which sounded a little meaningful.

Xin Yu's face was frank.

Qingsong Bookstore has the deepest relationship with Mr. Songling, and now I don't know how many people are staring at it. If she is timid, trouble will continue.

Meng Xijiu glanced in the direction of the entrance of the lobby, and took out a picture scroll from his sleeve and unfolded it.

"Miss Kou, is this Mr. Songling?"
