Yuan Zhen was led into the imperial study by the eunuch.

The emperor's majestic eyes looked at him, "What happened when the fourth prince of the Western Yuan entered the palace?" ”

"Back to Beiyu Emperor, Yuan Zhen came to Beiyu Shengjing this time to find the princess who was left in Beiyu Country sixteen years ago on the order of my emperor."

The emperor frowned, "The Xiyuan Kingdom has lost a princess, can the four princes find anyone?" ”

On the first day of entering Shengjing, Yuan Zhen was involved in the assassination of Emperor Beiyu, and was placed under house arrest for the next few days, unable to find his sister who was left behind in the people. After being able to travel freely, Yuan Zhen has been sending people to secretly search, and the emperor has lived up to his wishes, and finally has a little news. ”

"Oh?" The emperor became interested, "Is this to find someone?" ”

Yuan Zhen sighed, "The person has not been found yet, and it has been found that after the sister was exiled in Beiyu Kingdom, she was adopted by a lady surnamed Yao." Now that lady has passed away, leaving behind a pair of children, the daughter's name is Jiang Bingyue, who was put into prison not long ago because of the death of Miss Shen, and was executed by Emperor Beiyu today. ”

The emperor was shocked and incredulous, "What does this mean, the princess of Xiyuan is Jiang Bingyue?" ”

"Miss Jiang's mother has passed away, and her adoptive father doesn't know much about what happened back then, but he just said that Jiang Bingyue was born in Jiang's mansion, so she shouldn't be a princess of Xiyuan. His brother Jiang Yan said he had another adoptive sister, but he had never seen him. Before his mother died, the only person who stayed by her side was Jiang Bingyue, saying that only Jiang Bingyue knew the truth. ”

The implication is that Jiang Bingyue can't be killed.

The emperor's eyes were dark, "Jiang Bingyue killed the two young ladies of the Shen family, I just ordered her to be executed, if I take the liberty of pardoning her crimes, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." ”

Yuan Zhen's expression was faint, "Beiyu Huang, the death of the two young ladies of the Shen family, the murderer is the eleventh princess of your country, Jiang Bingyue, and a girl surnamed Ye. There are three real murderers, but only one Jiang Bingyue is executed, which is unfair. ”

The emperor's eyes sharpened, of course he knew that he was not fair enough in this case, but he couldn't let his daughter bury the two daughters of the Shen family, and after asking Shen Fengnian's opinion, he could only execute one Jiang Bingyue to block the mouths of Youyou.

Unexpectedly, this Jiang Bingyue would have a relationship with Princess Xiyuan.

Now that the decree has been issued, the decree has been changed day by day, which has aroused criticism.

The emperor pondered for a moment, "For the sake of the face of the fourth prince of the Western Yuan, I can give a few days of grace and leave Jiang Bingyue's life temporarily." The four princes can go to the prison to find Jiang Bingyue, and when they find out the whereabouts of the princess, I will have her executed. ”

"Before entering the palace, Yuan Zhen had already been to the Criminal Department, Jiang Bingyue was poisoned, not only dumb, but also blind." Yuan Zhen said.

The emperor was shocked, "Who did it?" ”

"I don't know for the time being, but I learned from the jailer that someone pretended to be Jiang Bingyue's younger brother's name, went to the prison to visit the prison, and poisoned Jiang Bingyue. I hurriedly entered the palace in the hope that His Majesty could temporarily release Jiang Bingyue and arrange for the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him. ”

"It's not appropriate to let people go, I will arrange for the imperial doctor to go to the prison to treat Jiang Bingyue!"

Yuan Zhen knew that it was almost impossible to get Emperor Beiyu to let Jiang Bingyue go, "There is one more thing that may need to be told to Emperor Beiyu." ”

"What?"

Yuan Zhen said, "A few days ago, Jiang Bingyue's younger brother Jiang Yan found me, in addition to providing clues about the princess of Xiyuan Kingdom, he also said that he and Jiang Bingyue are actually not brothers, he is a child bought from outside by his mother on the day of production in order to stabilize his position. ”

The emperor didn't understand Yuan Zhen's intentions, the Jiang siblings' affairs had nothing to do with him, so he deliberately told him what to do?

"Beiyu Emperor must be very puzzled, wondering why I deliberately said this." Yuan Zhen smiled, "On the day I entered Beijing, Shen Huaizhi died, and later, when the second miss of the Shen family was still alive, in order to save Shen Huaizhi, I took the blood of many sons and ladies of the Shen family, and exchanged the living life yuan for the dead Yangshou." ”

"Shen Huaizhi's first seven years ago broke out, the Jiang sisters and brothers are Shen Fengnian's illegitimate daughters and illegitimate sons, and Miss Shen Er also took the blood of the two sisters and brothers in order to save Shen Huaizhi."

In the end, Shen Huaizhi was resurrected. From this, it can be concluded that the Jiang sisters and brothers are indeed the bloodline of the Jiang Mansion. ”

"But Jiang Yan also said that he and Jiang Bingyue are not brothers and sisters, and he is not Shen Fengnian's son, isn't this a contradiction?"

Yuan Zhen said, arching his hand, "I hope that Emperor Beiyu will send someone to the prison to treat Jiang Bingyue as soon as possible, and Yuan Zhen will leave!" ”

After Yuan Zhen left, the emperor fell into deep thought, if the words of the fourth prince of the Western Yuan Dynasty were true, Jiang Yan was not Shen Fengnian's son, then it was not feasible to exchange Jiang Yan's Shouyuan for Shen Huai's Yang Shou.

But in the end, Shen Huaizhi was resurrected.

In other words, Shen Huaizhi's resurrection is strange.

Thinking about it carefully, Shen Huaizhi after waking up is indeed a little different from what he used to be.

rushed at him to openly confront the king of the northern wing, to discuss the explanation for his own burned medical hall, and to openly provoke the four princes of the Western Yuan, it is enough to see that he did not have the original forbearance and restraint, and he was not stable enough.

*

As soon as Yuan Zhen entered the palace, Shen Yu'an got the news.

Soon after, the emperor sent the imperial physician to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

Shen Yu'an asked people to investigate, but she didn't know what Yuan Zhen talked to the emperor, the only thing she knew was that Jiang Bingyue couldn't die at the moment.

In the afternoon, the emperor asked Shen Yu'an to summon Shen Yu'an into the palace.

After Shen Yu'an picked it up, she entered the palace with doubts to face the saint.

I was taken to the Imperial Garden.

The emperor was visiting the garden with Concubine Wen Xian, and from a distance, he looked at the two of them talking and laughing.

Shen Yu'an lowered her head slightly, and after stepping forward, she saluted respectfully, "The minister has seen the emperor and seen the virtuous concubine." ”

The emperor looked at her with a smile, "I have nothing to do, I want to play a game of chess with you." Turning his head to look at Concubine Xian, "Concubine Ai asked her to prepare some tea and snacks, and I chatted with Shen Shizi." ”

After Concubine Wen Xian left, Shen Yu'an followed the emperor into the pavilion.

The chessboard is already set.

Shen Yu'an suppressed the strangeness in her heart, and after the emperor shouted to take a seat, she respectfully sat opposite the emperor.

"You are a skilled chess player, and every time you play chess with me, the game is a draw, and you are a real chess opponent. As a result, I will always feel bored playing chess with others, and it is better to play chess with you. The Emperor smiled and said casually.

Shen Yu jumped suddenly, her face was not obvious, she glanced at the emperor, and wondered, "Why doesn't the minister remember such a thing?" frowned and looked pensive, "Could it be that the minister woke up and lost his memory?" ”

The Emperor looked at her without a trace, and laughed loudly, "I hold the black chess." ”

Shen Yu knew that the emperor was suspicious, and was obviously testing her, "The emperor pleases first." ”

Gentlemen and ministers, you come and go, Shen Yu'an looks indifferent, the chess is not slow, step by step, the advance and retreat are moderate, and the chess style is stable.

On the other hand, the emperor is decisive in killing and has a fierce chess style.

In the end, Shen Yu'an lost.

The emperor's eyes were dark, and the suspicion in his heart was three points less, and he looked at Shen Yu'an, "You, can't you play a game with me at the real level?" ”
