Chapter Seventy-One: Not Allowed

In the study of Yao's Mansion, Xiao Beichen saw that after listening to the content of the letter, he only looked at the appearance of contemplation, so he took the lead in breaking the silence and said: "Yao Shoufu"

"The four princes don't need to say much" Yao Yuqing raised his head and said firmly: "As an official of the imperial court, if someone privately studies poisons and kills innocents indiscriminately, he should come forward, this has nothing to do with the party of the station, the four princes can rest assured, I will definitely handle it impartially at that time!" ”

"Okay, Yao Shoufu's words are enough! However, after a pause, Xiao Beichen's eyes flashed, and he said tentatively: "If it involves his relatives, will Yao Shoufu still be so determined?" ”

"What do you mean by this, the fourth prince?" Yao Yuqing frowned, feeling that he seemed to have something extraneous meaning, so he wondered.

"It's okay" Xiao Beichen shook his head, and did not continue to talk about this topic, but changed the direction and said softly: "Since today's words have been brought, I still have important things to do here, so I won't bother more,"

"The four princes don't stay for dinner?"

"No, it's not early, I'll go to Dali Temple again later."

"That being the case, then it is inconvenient for me to do more to keep it," Yao Yuqing ordered outside: "Come here, send the four princes out of the house." ”

"Yes"....

The "Four Princes" Yao Xuetang was busy in the imperial dining room, thinking that he would stay for dinner, but who knew that he was told by his subordinates that he was leaving, so he hurriedly ran out, fortunately he could catch up! "The fourth prince is going back to the Xiao Mansion?"

"No" Seeing the expression on her face that wanted to speak and stopped, Xiao Beichen knew what she was worried about, so she took the initiative to inform: "My father has made a will, I still have a case to deal with, and I will go to Dali Temple to interrogate the prisoner later, so I don't have time to stay." ”

"Oh" Yao Xuetang responded obediently, secretly relieved, and did not forget to say obediently: "The fourth prince doesn't have to explain to me, I don't mean that, I'm not, no"

"What's not?" Xiao Beichen took a step forward and said, "You want to say that you are not the housekeeper, are you?" ”

"Fourth Prince" Yao Xuetang stomped his feet shyly, and after looking at him with a pretended complaint, he said coquettishly: "You will make fun of me, I, I will ignore you." ”

"Hehe" Xiao Beichen chuckled, and did not continue to tease her, but said in a low voice: "Go back, after this busy day, I will admit you into the door next month, you wait for me in the house first, huh?" ”

"Good" Now that the will has been made, even if Song Wan has monstrous ability, it is impossible to change the ending! Thinking of this, Yao Xuetang couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, but he still nodded respectfully on his face, and said softly: "Everything depends on the meaning of the fourth prince"....

Dali Temple, Xiao Beichen got down from the carriage and just wanted to enter, but he accidentally heard from the jailer's mouth: "Master Pei, this is going to the Huayi Building to investigate again?" ”

"Probably not, I just came back from outside, and I saw a carriage waiting in Dali Temple from a distance," the jailer said in a low voice, "I seem to have seen a girl, but unfortunately the distance is too far to see her face clearly." ”

"Girl? Are you saying that Master Pei finally got married? ”

"Hehe, I hope so, after all, Master Pei has been lonely for a long time, and it would be a good thing if someone accompanied him."

"Haha, yes, but you say" .....

As the voice faded away, although Xiao Beichen didn't seem to have any change on his face, the aura around him was significantly reduced, which suddenly made people shudder, at least Meng Yu, who was standing on the side at this time, had a deep understanding..."Lord"

"Where's the princess?"

Imperial Princess? The lord should not be suspicious..."Back to the lord, the imperial concubine should still be in the palace at this time. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Beichen frowned lightly, and said coldly: "Send someone back to the house to take a look, I want to know accurate information!" ”

"Yes"....

In the suburbs, Song Wan waited in the abandoned temple with a cloak on, until a figure stepped in from outside. "But there's progress?"

"The shopkeeper Liao of Huayi Building has recently returned to her hometown, and her exact whereabouts have not been found for the time being! But she has a capable subordinate by her side, I have brought people back to Dali Temple, I believe that after the interrogation, the current deadlock should be broken, and maybe" After that, Pei Ze saw that his figure seemed to be thinner than last time, and he couldn't help frowning and whispered: "Why are you more haggard again?" Didn't you just say last time that you want to take care of yourself? ”

"Huh? Pei Ze" Song Wan glanced at him suspiciously, and said suspiciously: "Why do I feel that you are weird?" ”

"What's the blame?"

It's like, "What's the blame?" Song Wan didn't seem to be able to say the reason for a while, so after thinking about it, she could only put this mystery aside for the time being, after all, she was in a hurry when she came out today, so it was better to say the important thing in advance! "Pei Ze, have you ever been to Huiyang?"

Seeing that she changed the topic again and didn't want to delve into it, Pei Ze couldn't tell whether he was a little more relieved or a little more disappointed, but he knew that as long as he could be by her side like this, he would already feel satisfied..."Earlier, when he was under King Qi, he went there to repel the homeless people. And Huiyang is relatively close to the geographical relationship of the Western Desert, so the riot has always been a big hidden danger, as far as I know, the imperial court has sent a lot of people to quell the chaos, but it seems that the final result"

Even if Pei Ze doesn't say the second half of the sentence, Song Wan already knows it! "I suspect that that it is a place used to study poisons, otherwise it stands to reason that the imperial court has always sent troops there, so that riots would not be so frequent" After a pause, her eyes darkened, and she asserted: "The most reasonable explanation is that the place itself is an abyss, and it cannot be ruled out that there are individual court officials who have also been involved in it!" ”

"You mean, there's an inner ghost in the middle?"

"Hmm" Song Wan nodded affirmatively and said, "But whose inner ghost it is, this still needs to be traced!" Pei Ze"

"I see what you mean, you want me to go to Huiyang in person, don't you?"

"Hmm... I did think so before I came, but" Song Wan pondered for a while, and said: "As an official of Dali Temple, you left the capital without a will, if someone finds out, I'm afraid it will be bad for you." ”

"Hehe" Pei Ze shook his head with a chuckle, looked at her worried face and said softly: "Song Wan, I hope you can understand that this is not your business alone, as an official of the imperial court, it is your duty and duty to protect the order of the capital and maintain the people of the capital!" You really don't have to take everything on yourself, you're not fighting alone, you know? ”

Listening to these familiar words, Song Wan's eyes reddened slightly, and she choked up slightly: "Pei Ze, don't you really consider settling with me?" I'm very sincere! ”

Hearing this, the corners of Pei Ze's mouth twitched fiercely, daring to say such a big sensational thing with his true feelings, this girl only thought about swearing? It's really an elm head! "What to worship, go and go, don't recognize your relatives here, I don't admit it."

"Okay, there is no such shop in this village after that", Song Wan smiled silently, in fact, she knew that this guy wanted her to relieve the pressure, she had been like this since the previous life, this was his intimacy and their tacit understanding, so..."Pei Ze, thank you." ”

"Thanks for what?" Pei Ze raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said noncommittally: "It's impossible to sell emotional cards, and you have to die of this heart." ”

"Haha...."At this time, Song Wan couldn't help laughing, and teased while laughing: "Why are you so resistant, is there something unspeakable?" ”

After a long time, seeing that he was still silent without giving in, Song Wan could only barely stop laughing, and surrendered: "Don't laugh, it's not early, I still want to ask you to check on something." ”

"What?"

"Yao Xuetang!"

"Yao Xuetang?" Pei Ze glanced at her calm and calm face, and said curiously: "There is news in the court today, she will officially enter the gate of the Xiao Mansion next month, Song Wan, are you just letting things develop like this?" ”

"Now that the will has come down, I'm just a woman, what can I stop?"

"You'd better be" Pei Ze obviously didn't believe her words, frowned and whispered: "Then what did you ask me to check on her?" ”

"Beichen once said that Yao Xuetang saved him when he fell off the cliff, don't you think it's strange?" After a pause, Song Wan lowered her head and her eyes flashed, and she said in a deep voice: "Why did she, the daughter of the first assistant, appear in Huiyang for no reason?" And right at the bottom of the cliff, isn't that too much of a coincidence? ”

"You're trying to say"

"Not bad! Now that we've guessed that there's something weird about this place in Huiyang, maybe she's our breakthrough! Just finding out who she had contact with before she set off would be of great benefit to us in finding out who was behind the scenes. ”

"Okay" Pei Ze looked at the woman in front of him with appreciative eyes, and responded: "I'll ask someone to go down to arrange it later, and I will go to Huiyang in person early tomorrow morning, if there is any news, I will send someone to pass it on to you" After that, he instructed him as if he had some selfish intentions: "Song Wan, take care of yourself, if you suffer any grievances, the sky will fall, and there will be a high ground to stand on, no need to resist yourself, understand?" ”

"Hmm" Song Wan nodded lightly, and also admonished him: "Since this person can kill innocents indiscriminately at will, it means that human life is not worth mentioning to him, if carelessness falls into his hands, I am afraid the consequences will be unimaginable, remember." ”

"I know, you"

"Imperial Princess, the time is almost up, it's time to go home."

"Okay" Song Wan turned to look at Pei Ze, who had just been interrupted, and wondered, "What's the matter, what did you just want to say?" ”

"No" Pei Ze shook his head with a wry smile, blaming them for chatting so tacitly, he almost forgot that she was already the imperial concubine, and there was still someone waiting for her in the mansion!

"Then I'll go first, be careful with everything yourself" After the words fell, Song Wan put on her hat and followed Ziyu into the carriage, and the two went straight to the direction of the capital....

In Xiaofu, as soon as Song Wan stepped into the wing, she saw a figure sitting in the center of the hall, with a pot of tea in front of her, but the jade cup was obviously empty! Seeing this, she felt a pang in her heart, knowing that he should have been waiting here for a long time.

"Slaves and maidservants see the Lord"

"Huh, slave?" Xiao Beichen took a step forward, stared at the girl who was neither big nor small, and said sharply: "I have never seen a slave or maid dare to take the imperial concubine to meet a foreign man in private, you are so bold!" ”

"The Lord spares your life" Ziyu was frightened, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"It's none of her business" Song Wan moved lightly in front of her, knowing that he had misunderstood, and just as she wanted to explain, she was violently grabbed by his wrist and said angrily: "As the imperial concubine, are you still reasonable to see a foreign man in private?" Do you really think I dare to do anything to you? ”

"Lord" saw that she was angry, she was afraid that there would be some accidents, and just wanted to say that the imperial concubine was pregnant, but she was interrupted, "Ziyu" Song Wan shook her head lightly, signaling her not to say it yet.

Seeing that the master and servant had such a tacit understanding behind his back, Xiao Beichen suddenly became even more angry in his heart, "Meng Yu"

"The subordinates are here!"

"Ziyu will be punished if she commits a crime, and she will not need to go back to Shuxiangzhai to serve later, and she will be demoted to the Huanyi Bureau!"

"Lord"

"Xiao Beichen" Song Wan heard that he was really going to move seriously, so she panicked: "Ziyu is just following orders, if you want to be punished, just punish me alone, don't take the small one to vent your anger." ”

"You think you'll be able to escape?" After that, Xiao Beichen picked up Song Wan and went to the back room, and instructed as he walked: "Why are you still stunned, waiting for me to make a move?" ”

Forehead.... Knowing that it is not easy to say anything now, Meng Yu can only secretly give Ziyu a look, and respond: "Yes"....

"Xiao Beichen, you, you are quite unreasonable!" Song Wan was pressed against the mattress by it, and said angrily.

"Reasoning what? Do you want me to understand your behavior as a private man? After that, Xiao Beichen frowned fiercely, as long as he thought of the days when he was away, Song Wan was likely to have met Pei Ze in private, he couldn't suppress his tyrannical spirit, and just wanted to destroy something urgently!

"You, you still pay the concubine yourself, you"

Hiss.... Before Song Wan finished speaking, the sound of her clothes being torn came over, and she saw that her robe had been rubbed and abused, leaving only a thin middle coat covering her skin-like body, adding a touch of ambiguity to this fiery room...."Song Wan" Xiao Beichen lay in her ear and said domineeringly: "If this is your revenge because of the matter of taking a concubine, then I can tell you now, I, no, quasi!" ”

"What, hmm" didn't want to argue with her anymore, Xiao Beichen leaned down and ravaged her lips viciously, seemingly with a sense of immortality.....
