Chapter 042: Please Enter the Urn

It has been half a cup of tea since she returned to Luluoju, but Qingchen still felt palpitations, facing Concubine An's questioning and that sharp eyes, she felt that she almost had nothing to hide.

Even if she calculates step by step, others may not step into her calculations, such as Concubine An.

She never thought that Concubine An had actually seen Mu Qingchen.

When the first emperor was alive, he sent a different surname Hou to envoy Tianxing, and Concubine An Luo Yiyi pretended to be a man, and her brother Luo Jin pretended to be a servant with a different surname Hou, and had several encounters with the real Jade Hook Princess in the palace of Tianxing Kingdom, and even ...... We had a great conversation.

Thinking of what Concubine An had said to her, Mu Qingchen's palms were suddenly slightly cold, and he was a little sweaty.

Even though he used a head injury to cover up that he couldn't remember the past, and explained that he was alone in a foreign land and lonely, he still couldn't dispel the doubts in Concubine An's heart.

But...... Fortunately, Concubine An didn't have anything else in mind, otherwise......

"Princess, are you uncomfortable? Or did Concubine An say something that made the princess feel uncomfortable? The princess has been sitting here since she came back from the palace, not saying anything......" Jin Yan looked at Qingchen with a pensive face, and couldn't help but worry.

Mu Qingchen heard Jin Yan's voice, returned to his senses slightly, and looked at Jin Yan standing in front of him, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Even people like Concubine An, who have only seen Qingchen a few times, can see that she is very different from Mu Qingchen in the past, but the palace maid in front of her, who grew up with Princess Yugou since she was a child, is as if nothing happened, everything is as usual.

If it is not without scheming, it is unfathomable, but thinking of the letter written by Jin Yan with the flying pigeon, she already understands that Jin Yan, who seems to be impulsive and naΓ―ve, may be the person who hides the most by her side.

"I'm fine, I'm just thinking about the palace banquet that the Queen Mother said. Qingchen shook his head with a smile and looked at Aunt Qiu, "Aunt Qiu, you are the old man in the palace, and the number of etiquette in the palace should be clear and clear, since the Queen Mother has ordered, you can't be sloppy." ”

"Yes, princess, the slave and maid will definitely live up to their trust. Aunt Qiu nodded.

"Okay, you all go down, call Shuyu over, I think this neck is very sore, she has a big hand, call over and pinch it for me. Qingchen waved his hand at the two.

"Princess, how do you feel that the slave maid needs more Jiaoyu now than the slave maid, and the slave and maid don't know how to serve you. Jin Yan seemed to speak with some complaint.

Qingchen smiled slightly, and a touch of clarity crossed his heart before he spoke: "You grew up with me, where am I willing for you to do these rough jobs? I wish I could find a good family for you to marry in the future, so that you can also be a young grandmother and enjoy Qingfu." ”

When it came to getting married, Jin Yan's face suddenly turned red to the base of her neck, but she stomped her feet a little shyly: "The princess is joking with the slave and maid again, and the slave and maid are going to call Zhanyu over." ”

"The slave maid looked, the princess and Concubine An had no contact with each other, and when I saw it today, I realized that the princess and Concubine An seemed to be very close. Aunt Qiu said casually on the side.

Qingchen's heart froze, raised his eyes without a trace, swept Qiu Rong's face, and knew that this was to inquire about the news, so he spoke quietly:

"It's not a fate, it's just a matter of saying two words. Concubine An's mother is also very strange, she actually persuaded me that I shouldn't let you help Concubine Shen, I can't figure out the twists and turns, originally I only thought that you had been in the palace for a long time, and I asked you to help you neatly, but now I only ask what you mean, if you don't want to go, I will tell Concubine Shen that I helped you push this errand. ”

"The slave and the maid thank the princess for her compassion, not to mention that it is the slave and maid's business to share the princess's worries, how dare you bother the princess to run around for such a trivial matter?" Aunt Qiu said.

"Aunt Qiu can understand, it is indeed very good. You're tired today, so go down and rest. Qingchen said with a smile.

"The slave and maid are gone. Qiu Rong nodded, bowed and exited the door, only to see that Zhu Yu had already come in.

"Princess, Sister Huai Jin took advantage of the princess's entry into the palace in the morning to go to the Star Picking Tower and came back with some news. Ji Yu looked at Qingchen and said.

"Is it about the Ye family?" Qingchen asked.

"Yes, but not more. Jiyu said, "A few days ago, the princess asked Hua Niang to check the Du Feiyang, there is news. ”

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"Du Feiyang's father is a well-known rich man in Beijing, but unfortunately Du Yuanwai died early, leaving a widow and only son; his mother is a foreigner, and her identity is very ordinary, so after Du Yuanwai died, he left this huge family property but could not take care of it, so he had to hand it over to Du Feiyang, but this Du Feiyang was a failure, and he was idle all day long, squandering all the family wealth. Ji Yu said.

"What does it mean that there is an aunt who is a confidant of the emperor?" Qingchen asked.

"I haven't found this yet, the Du family has no dealings with the palace, but Du Feiyang has an uncle who is an official in the court, and his official position is not low. "Hold Yu told all the things that Xingxinglou found out.

"Dali Temple Qing Du Xiangrui?" Mu Qingchen asked inadvertently.

"Yes, that's him. ”

"I clearly heard Du Feiyang say that day, he has an aunt who works in the palace and is a celebrity around the emperor, if I can know who his aunt is, maybe it can be used by me, Grip Yu, you ......" Qingchen said, let Grip Yu come over with his ear, and whispered something in her ear, but saw Grip Yu nodding slightly, indicating that he understood.

"It's really wonderful to invite you into the urn with this trick of the princess. After listening to this, Ji Yu said with a smile.

"I'm invited, but I want that gentleman to be willing to enter the urn. Qingchen shook his head, a vague smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he muttered, "Du Xiangrui......"

"Princess, there is another matter. "Zhan Yu spoke again, "The person who entrusted the Star Picking Building to investigate the Ye family's affairs with 10,000 taels of silver last time went to the Star Picking Building again, and the deputy landlord said that the person added 10,000 taels of silver and asked the Star Picking Building to find someone." ”

"10,000 taels just to find one person?" Qingchen wondered, what was Xiao Yi doing?

Moreover, the man was not looking for a living man, but ...... It was the corpse of Ye Chengcheng. Shake Yu paused before uttering the last few words.

Mu Qingchen was shocked, at that time, the Ye family was raided and exterminated, together with the three thousand hidden guards, was beheaded at the noon gate, according to the rules of the Ningyue Kingdom, the Ye family and the hidden guards were not allowed to be buried, and could only be thrown into the mass graves as abandoned corpses, which became food for many beasts.

And she was the queen at the beginning, and she died by drinking, and her body was intact, but she didn't know what Xiao Ling would do with the corpse that originally belonged to Ye Tingcheng.

"How did Ning Chen deal with it?"

"It's about the princess, the deputy landlord naturally agreed, and the person who took over the task this time ...... It's the owner of the Wind Building. Grip Yu told Mu Qingchen the news that Huai Jin had sent back one by one.

"That's fine, at least Brother Feng's skills, I don't have to worry about it. Qingchen said, "Hold Yu, tell Huai Jin to make some delicious food and send it to Tingyuxuan in the evening, I remember...... It's been a long time since I've eaten with the prince. ”

"Yes, my subordinates will go and tell Sister Huai Jin, and by the way, I will listen to Yuxuan's report. Ji Yu said, turned and went out.

Qingchen nodded, watched Zhan Yu leave, and breathed a heavy sigh of relief, but his eyebrows were full of condensation.

She and Xiao Yi do their own things, and it is true that they do not interfere with each other, but now that it is about the Ye family, and even herself, she can no longer pretend to turn a blind eye, no matter what Xiao Yi wants to do, but if Xiao Yi wants to use the Ye family to achieve his goals, then ...... She won't sit idly by.

Xiao Yi quickly replied, saying that it was rare for the princess to take the initiative, so she had to give face, and listened to Yuxuan's banquet at night, waiting for the princess.

After Xiao Yi's reply, Qingchen was accompanied by Huai Jin and Zhan Yu at dinner, and went to Tingyuxuan, a courtyard she had never set foot in since the wedding night.

There is still no change in the decorations, probably because Xiao Yi is lazy and frivolous when he looks like the world, he is indifferent to everything in the mansion, and likes fine wine and beautiful people, so so far, Qin Zhong has not found anything wrong, and Xiao Ling has not had the slightest suspicion.

After all, no one would doubt that a person who has been in an enemy country for ten years will play small tricks under his nose.

"See the prince. When Qingchen saw Xiao Yi, he bowed.

"The princess doesn't have to be polite, this king hasn't dined with the princess for a long time, and today is a rare opportunity, let's not be polite. Xiao Yi said very casually, with the usual smile on his face, "Come, sit down." ”

Qingchen sat down as he said, but saw Xiao Yi pour two glasses of wine, handed one of them to Qingchen, and motioned for the two to toast. Ke Qingchen took the wine glass, then put it down, and slowly spoke:

"Qingchen doesn't know how to drink, please don't blame the prince. ”

Wine, especially the wine poured by others, Qingchen will never touch it again in this life.

When Xiao Yi heard Qingchen's words, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: "Since the princess can't drink, the king is no longer reluctant, but I don't know why the princess suddenly rose up today and wants to dine with the king?"

"Can't it be that Qingchen misses the prince and simply wants to dine with the prince?"

"Since the princess said so, this king doesn't want to ask much, come, these are said to be the princess's favorite dishes, try it, compared to the Tianxing Kingdom, how it tastes. ”

"The prince has a heart. Qingchen picked up the silver chopsticks on the table, smiled, and put the delicate and delicious meal in his mouth.

For a while, there was silence in the room, only the sound of the collision of dishes and chopsticks was heard, and the eyes of Xiao Yi and Mu Qingchen were testing and looking at each other, the two had different thoughts, and they turned back and forth, but suddenly, Qingchen was dizzy in front of him, and he was about to speak, but he heard Xiao Yi speak coldly:

"Zhao Xu, do it. ”

Immediately came the sound of Huai Jin and Ji Yu falling to the ground, and a man appeared behind Qingchen, stretching out his hand to point at Qingchen's acupoint, making Qingchen unable to move for a moment.

"The princess forgives her sins, and her subordinates are offended. Zhao Xu, who was behind him, bowed down and said, and jumped out of the back window with Xiao Yi.
