Chapter 349: Old Acquaintances
Zhou Tingyue didn't care about the roar of his life-saving benefactor last night, and asked Qingjiujiu: "Who do you think?" ”
Such an obvious assassination was obviously aimed at the four of them last night, otherwise these people in the inn would not have been alarmed at all.
Qingjiujiu ate sweet potatoes and couldn't drink porridge at all, but she remembered that she hadn't seen Shen Cheng eat, so she casually pushed the porridge over.
When she made this move, she was still immersed in her own thinking, thinking about Zhou Tingyue's problem, and didn't realize that something was wrong.
But the other three people, whether it was Shen Qu who was sent a bowl of porridge, Song Heyu who was unhappy with the white porridge, or Zhou Tingyue, who was waiting for Qingjiujiu's answer, all threw strange glances at her.
"If it's just for me, then I don't have a clue for the time being, I don't remember making enemies myself, and you want such a large size to hunt me down."
After speaking, Qingjiujiu raised her eyes and came into contact with the sight of the three people, she wondered: "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just where you hid with my Shen Aiqing last night? Want to hide for the night? ”
Afraid that Song Heyu would misunderstand, Qing Jiujiu hurriedly waved his hand: "We just ran to a bamboo forest, and the road was difficult to recognize when it was dark, so we waited until dawn to return." ”
"That's it-" Song Heyu smiled meaninglessly and patted Shen Qu's shoulder: "That seems to be quite remote, and even you can't find it." ”
Qingjiujiu glanced at Zhou Tingyue, Song Heyu was curious about her spending the night outside, and she was also curious about whether there was anything between Zhou Tingyue and Song Heyu.
But it seems to be in vain.
Song Heyu is a woman who is a generation of empresses, and her mind is not so easy to guess.
Yesterday, it was because she drank a little wine that she could see a little unusual from Zhou Tingyue's subtle clues and Song Heyu's drunken state.
Now that the sky is blue and the drunken wine is awake, she can't figure it out.
Maybe these are all her illusions, if Song Heyu and Shen Qu are a couple, then she and Shen Qu did not return overnight, and it is even more necessary to explain clearly.
The two officials went to count the number of people and the disaster relief money, and after finding nothing unusual, they came back and asked for the departure time.
So those people didn't come for money, they just came to take people's lives.
Qingjiujiu was in danger last night, which made the two adults more and more frightened.
This trip didn't expose Qingjiujiu's identity in the first place, so it also attracted a hunt, if something really happened, both of them would not have enough heads to lose.
Seeing that they were wiping their sweat frequently, Qingjiujiu said with a smile: "The two adults don't need to be so alarmed, since His Majesty Song is with us, she is outstanding, and it is okay to have her." ”
Although he comforted them like this, Qingjiujiu also regretted a little that he didn't bring Shen Mo out.
She originally thought that this trip would be an ordinary visit, and they should go back to Yanjing in a month at most.
Now it seems that it is not so simple.
Those people didn't succeed last night, and there must be a follow-up move.
She and Zhou Tingyue are okay with poison, but if it is about force, they can't do five tricks under the hands of others.
"I'm going to protect you, am I?" Song Heyu laughed angrily at Qingjiu's unkindness.
"Since Your Highness has been on the same road with us all the way, you must have to go to Jinling, don't you want to go to Jinling with us?"
Song Heyu put down the spoon and clasped his arms with both hands: "It depends on my mood, if I am not happy, I will take a detour from Jinling." ”
It's okay, but why don't I believe it.
After finishing the wine, he smiled at Song Heyu with eight teeth.
Song Heyu was stunned: "You use beauty tricks on me?" ”
"No, no, I'm just thanking Your Majesty in advance, Your Majesty will eat slowly, and I'll go up and change my clothes."
As soon as she went up to the second floor of the inn, Zhou Tingyue followed: "Xiaojiu, do you really want them to go with us?" Aren't you afraid that those people can't get out of the relationship with Song Heyu? ”
This suspicion is very unnecessary.
Zhou Tingyue has never been so suspicious of others, so Qing Jiujiu has figured out something wrong.
It seems that along the way, Zhou Tingyue said to Song He that Shen was following them, and he showed that he wanted to drive them away.
"Childe, don't you like the Empress?"
I didn't expect Qingjiujiu to ask so directly, Zhou Tingyue was stunned for a moment before nodding: "She was quite unscrupulous when she was in power, I really don't like her." ”
Qingjiujiu didn't know much about the Qingyue royal family, but he probably heard about it.
Song Heyu has three elder brothers, and two of these three are still princes, born to Empress Qingyue.
Emperor Qingyue set up a crown prince in his early years, and he was the eldest son of the emperor who won the position of the East Palace.
The other two, in terms of talent and ability, are also well-known in the five continents.
Later, as Emperor Qingyue grew older, his body became weaker and weaker, and the princes began to separate powers and intervene in state affairs.
In the royal family, it is normal for brothers to have many disagreements for power, and Song Heyu's three elder brothers are said to be fighting fiercely at that time.
It's a bit of a bloody head.
But in the year that Emperor Qingyue died of illness, Song Heyu, the third princess who had never been noticed, suddenly appeared.
She encircled officials in the court, and there was a lot of evidence of the royal brothers' fights and unclean methods.
At this moment, the royal family fell into chaos, originally it was just secretly bleeding, but after Song Heyu joined, the court meeting almost had to fight.
I heard that several times, the prince directly smashed the music on Song Heyu's head.
Song Heyu, who was smashed on the head and bleeding from it, still smiled and said: "These sons of my father's emperor seem to be bright and straightforward, but they are all vicious in their methods.
Collecting money, taking power, collecting money and collecting women, Qingyue has disasters every year, and the people don't want to find a way, but it is the silver that the officials in the disaster area 'respect' come up, and they eat it every year, so they are still the emperor? I'm better than you as an emperor. ”
As expected, she said that she wanted to be the emperor as a woman, or humiliated her brothers.
And then what?
Then the crown prince died.
I heard that she died on the belly of a woman, and it was the woman arranged by Song Heyu who fed the prince aphrodisiac incense, and the prince suffocated to death when he was at his most excited.
Song Heyu once caused an uproar in Qingyue, she was very ruthless, but she did things clearly.
Later, she really took the throne and sat for so many years.
Qingjiujiu knew that it was rumored that Song He killed his brother, but he didn't know that it was true.
She opened her lips to express surprise: "How did Childe know?" ”
"You also know that I have never liked to meddle in the affairs of the emperors of various countries, but the second prince of Qingyue was once my friend."
Zhou Tingyue's identity is very mysterious, he has a big network of relationships, so big that at that time, Qingjiujiu wanted to deal with Meng Jiu'an, and only gave Meng Changan such a letterhead, which could give him Meng Jiu'an's past incriminating evidence.
That's not the power of Qingjiujiu, it's Zhou Tingyue's.
Therefore, Zhou Tingyue and the second prince of Qingyue are friends, which is shocking and not so shocking.
"I see," Qingjiujiu muttered, "so you guys are really old acquaintances?" ”
