Chapter 172: The things of the world have always been deep

Immediately, Yu Zhi spoke again: "It's not my turn to worry about the night ghost thing. And the reason why the night ghost assassinated the prince and attacked the northern sect at night, I don't want to know. The more you know about these troubles, the more troublesome they become. ”

Yan Yi smiled, she began to understand Yu Zhi's temperament a little.

If there is someone in front of him, he is only willing to hide behind and watch the excitement.

"Indeed, it's not your turn to worry about the night ghosts. This matter is deep, don't worry about it. ”

"The things of the world have always been deep." Yu Zhi had a rough understanding of some so-called night ghosts, and he had already begun to plan his next actions in Cangshan.

Li Haomiao came to Beiliang Mansion, which is great news. As long as Li Haomiao cooperates with his actions, the probability of capturing Biluo Qingyan will be greatly increased.

He couldn't hurry up to inform Li Haomiao, and the matter could only be handed over to Ye Qinghuan, who was still in Qinggu.

Yu Zhi looked at Yan Yi and asked, "Where is Qinghuan in Qinggu?" ”

Yan Yi ordered the table again and motioned for Yu Zhi to pour wine. She deliberately played a dumb riddle and said, "Master Yu is planning to unload the mill and kill the donkey?" Anyway, I brought you so much information. My throat is dry when I say it. ”

Yu Zhi smiled, poured a full drink for Yan Yi, and said kindly: "Thank you Yan Gongzi." ”

Yan Yi held the cup, squinted her eyes, and looked like she was enjoying it. "Well said, you just have to remember that you still owe me one thing you haven't done."

.....

Wang Xiao is dead.

I couldn't help the severe pain of the bone eater eating the internal organs, and died in the room.

It should have been a sad thing. Especially Wang Wufeng and Shao Xin, Wang Xiao is the only son of the two, and now he is dead.

But except for Shao Xin, the others don't necessarily have half a sad mood.

Whether it was Wang Wufeng, Wang Yu, or Shao Jian'an, they were all worried about something else.

Yesterday, a guard came from the plum garden, and it was the prince's message, but he wanted to summon a few people tonight. This command couldn't help but make a few people contact the northern army at the gate of the small courtyard.

Even after two days, Wang Wufeng still didn't figure out why there were Northern Army garrisons in that deep alley.

Shao Jian'an felt as if his group had fallen into a trap. The trap wasn't meant for them, but they jumped in.

In addition to these three people, there was also a middle-aged man who was covered in alcohol and sat on a chair, looking at his face, the man and Shao Jian'an were still somewhat similar.

This person is Shao Jian'an's son, Shao Yan, and Ye Qinghuan's cheap father.

Before, Shao Yan waited for the prince Xiao Jingyao's greeting in Beiliang City. After a long time, Xiao Jingyao did not summon Shao Yan, so this person who loves to seek flowers and ask willows is intoxicated by the gentle township of Qinglou.

Last night, when Shao Jian'an found someone, Shao Yan was already drunk. Until now, Shao Yan has not woken up.

Shao Jian'an looked at Shao Yan angrily, he wanted to know something from Shao Yan's mouth, but now it seems hopeless.

In other words, even if Shao Yan wakes up, what can he know about the state of lingering in flowers every day?

It is said that it is a tiger father and a dog son, and Shao Jian'an is also a character of the marquis, how could he give birth to such a son. What annoyed Shao Jian'an the most was that his unsuccessful son gave birth to a talented Ye Qinghuan. And this Ye Qinghuan regarded the Shaowu Marquis Mansion as an enemy.

Compared with Ye Qinghuan, the more Shao Jian'an looked at Shao Yan, the more angry he became. He even suspected that Ye Qinghuan was not the bloodline of his Shaowu Marquis Mansion at all.

"Father-in-law, is there any news from the Northern Army?" Wang Wufeng asked.

After being summoned by the prince, Shao Jian'an's post was sent to the barracks of the Northern Army, and he also asked someone to check the direction of the wind in the Northern Army.

However, the worship post was like a mud cow entering the sea, and there was no news coming.

Shao Jian'an shook his head, he didn't know the truth, he didn't know the truth. Xu Qing of the Northern Army, he may be able to say a few words of forgiveness with unfamiliar friendships. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is a catastrophe if it is not good.

The officers and men of the Northern Army were beaten, and the Northern Army was calm. That's what makes people feel weird.

All the calmness is extremely unsettling.

Wang Yu sat on the chair, his eyes closed, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"I remember." Wang Yu said suddenly, he had been wondering why the women in the small courtyard knew him, and even knew his name.

When he was in Kyoto, he had met this woman. It's just that the woman at that time was just a yellow-haired girl, and now her appearance has changed slightly.

Wang Yu sighed and said, "The old man has seen this woman in Kyoto. She is the lady-in-waiting of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince....."

There are very few rumors about the crown prince in Kyoto, he is benevolent and tolerant, and although his political achievements are not as good as those of the three princes, he is impeccable in everything. No matter what happened, there was never a mistake in Xiao Jingyao's hands.

Therefore, when the three princes were chasing after him, Xiao Jingyao was also able to sit firmly in the East Palace.

In terms of virtue and ability, Xiao Jingyao is blameless, and the only one who has some rumors is the prince's maid - Wan'er.

It's a well-known secret.

Li Xiuyuan knew, the queen mother knew, and many courtiers had also heard some clues. It's just that this secret is not a bad thing.

Hearing what Wang Yu said, Wang Wufeng and Shao Jianan also understood.

The soldiers of the Northern Army must have come to protect this maid.

Wang Wufeng said: "If it was just this matter, we didn't hurt that woman in the slightest." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned him should not cause any trouble. ”

In fact, several people were thinking about more than just this matter.

Everyone has a lot of bad things, and if there are too many things, there is a feeling of weakness, and if there is a little wind and grass, the heart will be cold and swishing.

Shao Jian'an had no choice but to comfort himself so much.

Beiliang Mansion is in the northernmost part of the Great Chu Territory, and it is the so-called Tiangao Emperor Yuan. Some officials in Beiliang Mansion are a little bolder, and secretly there are always some dirty things that can't stand scrutiny.

Now that the prince is here, it is a wake-up call for these people.

Whether it is Shao Jian'an, Wang Wufeng, or even Wang Yu, who has returned to his hometown, they all have their own thoughts in their hearts.

Wang Wufeng paced, his steps a little heavy. At this time, he no longer cared about Wang Xiao's death, but more about how to get himself out of danger.

The same is true for others.

......

Beiliangfu Plum Garden.

Xiao Jingyao looked at the scenery in the garden, and his eyebrows were a little more comfortable.

The Ten Thousand Tiger Army has arrived in Beiliang Mansion, and Xu Qing has taken over the military power. Since then, the Ten Thousand Tigers have changed their banner and changed their surname to Xu.

In fact, it doesn't matter who the surname is. The important thing is that the 30,000 elites of the Ten Thousand Tiger Army were separated from the command of the King of Chu and were no longer subordinate to the King of Chu.

Xiao Jingyao was very happy about this. He knew that his father was taking advantage of his assassination, and the opportunity of Xiang Ji's entry into the Lonely Sky Tower, to weaken Xiang's military power.

The dispatch of the Ten Thousand Tiger Army was just an excuse for the Great Chu Emperor.

On the one hand, he cared about Xiao Jingyao, and on the other hand, he asked Wan Hujun to change his surname.

The soldier is not bloody, or rather, Xiao Jingyao is the knife.

Xiao Jingyao didn't care what his father's thoughts were, and he would be happy if he cut the military power of the King of Chu.

Yan Zimu hadn't seen Xiao Jingyao's peaceful expression for a long time. Since that night, Xiao Jingyao has often frowned, and he can see a little sadness in his ordinary face.

"Your Highness is in a good mood today." Yan Zimu said.

Xiao Jingyao has always been gentle, especially for the people around him. Such a gentle temperament can make him a wise man with the amount of people.

"Wan'er's illness is cured. Hongu is naturally in a good mood. ”

Whenever Wan'er is talked about, the sadness between Xiao Jingyao's eyebrows will dissipate a little. All the way north, Yan Zimu can also see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a sincere affection for the maid Wan'er, and there is absolutely no falsehood.

But is that a good thing?

For an ordinary maid, obviously not.

Yan Zimu said: "In this case, why didn't Your Highness go to see Miss Wan'er?" According to her subordinates, Miss Wan'er should also miss Her Royal Highness. ”

Xiao Jingyao suddenly turned his head to look at Yan Zimu, which frightened Yan Zimu and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Xiao Jingyao's eyes.

"Your Highness's forgiveness! The subordinates have said more. ”

As the commander of the guards of the East Palace, the water in the palace is deep, and Yan Zimu also understands that there are some things that he should not say more. If you say it wrong, it is the difference between life and death. Today, Yan Zimu doesn't know why, but he said a little more.

Xiao Jingyao laughed, patted Yan Zimu's shoulder, and smiled gently: "Zimu, there is no need to be frightened. How could Hongu be such a stingy person. ”

Immediately, Xiao Jingyao looked away and looked at the clouds in the sky.

"This palace also wants to meet Wan'er. But because of some things, Wan'er can stay away from the palace. Born in an imperial family, many things are not something you can decide. This is true even in life and death. ”

Yan Zimu seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and he didn't dare to say more. The emperor's heart is like an abyss, as a prince, who said that Xiao Jingyao is not?

After Wan'er was poisoned, Xiao Jingyao understood many things.

He once thought that if he went north to Kyoto and escaped from that family affair, he would be able to enjoy a moment of pleasure with Wan'er. In retrospect, this was really whimsical.

Who cares about the life of a maid? If she is dead, she is dead, even if she is someone close to the prince.

Who poisoned Wan'er?

It can only be him - Li Xiuyuan.

Xiao Jingyao thought about it, but he could only put his suspicions on Li Xiuyuan's head. As everyone knows, the initiator of all this is his queen mother, who is now the queen mother.

killed Wan'er, let Xiao Jingyao marry Li Chuchen with peace of mind, get Li Xiuyuan's full support, and ascend the throne as emperor.

After a while, Xiao Jingyao suddenly said: "I have been going north for more than a month, and I don't know if the queen mother's body is healthy." ”

......

In the Kyoto Imperial Palace, the queen mother of the world looked at the fish playing in the water, but she was a little upset.

The young eunuch behind him duly handed over a cup of tea.

"Wan'er's girl survived. This is not a good thing. The queen said calmly.

The young eunuch knew that this was not a good thing, but the worst thing to do. Since the time when the queen was still a princess, she was a strong person. and his imperial son Xiao Jingyao are even more temperamental.

Xiao Jingyao is lenient and gentle, but the queen mother is a little harsh, and she is a little harsh on people and things.

Over the years, the young eunuchs have also adapted.

The young eunuch did not explain, he knew that the queen did not like to listen to explanations.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be aware of the context, and he can alienate Wan'er these days. Perhaps His Highness has already understood the intention and will not entangle with Wan'er. ”

The queen's face did not change, and she threw the remaining bait in her hand into the water, and the fish jumped up one after another, causing ripples.

"The emperor of this palace is not such a weak person. What he's doing now is just to save that little girl. ”
