The lunch in Qin's Mansion is not rich, and it is light and tasteless, if it is usual, Su Shi has no appetite just by looking at it.

But today he was really hungry, and he could eat a few bowls of even coarse tea and light rice.

Qin Nan ate very little, and her eyes looked at Su Shi strangely from time to time.

Kong Wenshun and Qin Zhidao didn't move their chopsticks at all, and they rarely spoke, just kept drinking. Especially Kong Wenshun, he is full of worries, his face is melancholy, and drinking wine is like drinking water.

Fortunately, the wine that Qin Zhidao took out today was not a general wine, otherwise, if he drank like them, he would have collapsed under the table.

Everyone was waiting, waiting for Su to put down his chopsticks, because his story was only half told.

So when Su Shi put down his chopsticks, Qin Zhidao and Kong Wenshun also put down their wine glasses.

Qin Zhidao said with concern like a father cares about his child: "You are still growing your body, eat more." ”

"I want to, too, but I can't eat it anymore."

Qin Zhidao said leisurely: "Now that you have eaten enough, shouldn't your thinking be clear?" ”

Su Shi immediately nodded: "Yes." ”

Qin Zhidao said lightly: "Then can you remember where Hui Niang hid the book now?" ”

Su Shi replied very dryly: "I don't know." ”

"I don't know." Qin Zhidao looked at him suspiciously.

Although Su Shi behaved upright and awe-inspiring at this time, Qin Zhidao always felt that he had something to hide in this matter.

Qin Zhidao looked at Qin Nan again, and at the same time, Su Shi's gaze was also staring at her. Qin Nan was panicked in his heart, but he still pretended to be calm and shook his head lightly at Qin Daodao.

Qin Zhidao looked a little disappointed, and immediately turned his eyes to look at Su Shi again, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you can't remember, since Hui Niang left a clue on the handkerchief, you should be able to find that book through the clue." ”

Su Shi's body leaned back slightly, like a deflated balloon: "The handkerchief was stolen." ”

Everyone was taken aback again, and then looked at him in amazement.

So Su Shi recounted in detail what happened last night and this morning.

In the process of Su Shi's narration, no one interrupted, because everyone's hearts were swelling with turbulent waves.

They have all been to the painting boat, and the person who received them is You Gui, but they never imagined that he was actually Pei Hyun's person, and he had been hiding on the painting boat for more than ten years.

What made them feel even more terrifying was that there were people hiding in the palace who were Bae Hyun. And even though Bae Hyun is dead, these people don't seem to have any intention of stopping and continuing his legacy.

Everyone frowned, thinking hard about what Bae Hyun's legacy was? What are these people planning?

After a long time, Qin Zhidao slowly asked, "So, Lu Tian hasn't confessed yet?" ”

Su Shi shook his head lightly: "It's not easy to get him to confess. ”

Qin Zhidao said lightly: "Whether it is a secret guard or a secret guard, they all have many ways to make people confess. ”

Su Shi hesitated: "I don't think those tortures are useful to You Gui, and I don't want to hand You Gui over now." ”

"Why?"

"Because he's still useful."

Qin Zhidao knew that Su Shi had other plans, so he didn't insist anymore, but just asked, "Then what are you going to do next?" ”

Su Shi said: "You Gui is a good bait. ”

Hearing this, Qin Zhidao naturally understood what he meant, and couldn't help but smile: "So you're going to use him to fish?" ”

Su Shi said lightly: "Any person who has been in an organization for more than ten years should know some secrets of this organization, and the other party must not want us to know these secrets." So whether they want to save You Gui or want him to shut up forever, they will take action. ”

"And if you hand You Gui over to the secret guard or secret guard, I am afraid that the other party will be dormant, and it will be very difficult to find them again."

Qin Zhidao nodded his head after hearing this, and then asked with a whisker: "What about the person who answered You Guihe and stole the handkerchief in the palace?" ”

"Princess Pingle is on track." Speaking of this, Su Shi thought for a while and continued: "But I didn't have much hope. ”

"Why?" Qin Zhidao was a little puzzled: "Her Royal Highness the Princess's analysis is not unreasonable, why are you not good-looking?" ”

"I don't know." Su Shi shook his head dejectedly: "I just have this premonition, but I can't tell why I have this premonition." ”

At this time, Kong Wenshun finally sighed on the side: "Can anyone tell me now what happened?" What exactly are you doing? ”

Su Shi hurriedly stood up and said respectfully to Kong Wenshun and Qin Zhidao: "I still have something to discuss with Miss Qin Nan." As for what Master Confucius asked, Uncle Qin knew very well, so he asked Uncle Qin to tell him. ”

Although Qin Zhidao knew that this was Su Shi's prevarication, since he said so, he obviously didn't want to bother talking anymore, so he had to say to Kong Wenshun: "I know that Brother Pingjiang is obsessed with learning and doesn't want to pay attention to the disputes in the world, so I didn't tell Brother Pingjiang about this matter." Now that Brother Pingjiang wants to know, please go to the study and sit down, this matter is complicated, let me talk about it in detail. ”

After Qin Zhidao and Kong Wenshun left, only Su Shi and Qin Nan were left in the hall.

Seeing that her father and Master Confucius had already gone away, and there was no one else in the hall, Qin Nan could no longer suppress the doubts in her heart, she looked directly at Su Shi: "Why do you want to hide it from my father and Master Confucius?" ”

Su Shixian knew that Qin Nan would have this question, and said slowly: "That's just our speculation. ”

"You should know that our speculation is easy to verify."

Su Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Do you want to dig up the prince's coffin based on our speculation alone, and then uncover the coffin to find it." What if our guesses are wrong? ”

Qin Nan said categorically: "Our speculation is absolutely not wrong. Hui Niang knew that the book was very important to both the prince and Pei Hyun, so she would definitely not fake it to others, and she would definitely collect it personally. ”

"The prince died suddenly, Hui Niang will definitely suspect that the prince's death is related to Pei Hyun, so before she knows the truth, she will never hand over the prince's handwritten letter to Pei Hyun, and naturally she will not put it on her body again."

Su Shi continued: "And she also knows that as long as she appears in the East Palace, she will definitely be under house arrest, at that time she will be monitored at any time, and it will not be easy to hide the prince's handwritten book again, so Hui Niang will hide the book in the prince's coffin when she cries." ”

Qin Nan couldn't help but glared at him, and couldn't help but sneer: "I think that when Hui Niang heard the news of the prince's death, she had already decided to go with the prince in her heart, so she would return the goods to the original owner and let the prince write a handwritten letter to accompany the prince to the funeral." ”

Su Shi hurriedly nodded: "You are right." Then he thought about it again and said in a deep voice: "Now that I think about it, the reason why Hui Niang chose the Red Plum Pavilion as a place of house arrest, and spent three months embroidering that handkerchief there, in addition to comforting the lovesickness, the main reason is to make Pei Hyun think that the prince's handwriting is in the Red Plum Pavilion, and that handkerchief is the clue." ”
