Chapter 26: Xu Qi'an: I have made meritorious service again
"Are you playing this game?"
"Cold ice" climbed up Chen Guifei's face little by little, her expression, her eyes, and her tone were all cold.
"Look," Xu Qi'an shrugged his shoulders and sneered: "No matter how nice the person who paints the pie says, as long as he has a real effort, he will immediately turn his face." ”
It's good that you didn't agree, otherwise Lao Tzu would rather be sad than break you.
Chen Guifei took a sip of the teacup, and when she put down the teacup, her face had returned to normal, "The biggest flaw in this palace is Lang'er, as long as she is gone, there is no proof of death."
"And the high-rise building of Fengqi Palace is about to collapse in a blink of an eye. The so-called good birds choose trees to perch, Lord Xu is a smart person, how to choose, you know in your heart. ”
Xu Qi'an nodded with a look of approval: "The prince is still the prince, and the queen is about to change the throne, and the mother promised to marry Lin'an to me....... So I chose Wei Gong. ”
Chen Guifei's face was stagnant, and the hand holding the teacup exerted a slight force, and it took a long time to resist the urge to splash the hot tea on this kid's face, or drop the cup.
"So, Lord Xu is preparing to take Lang'er away from Jingxiu Palace, and he is going to put this palace to death?"
Chen Guifei stared at Xu Qi'an with a pair of beautiful eyes, the atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing, and an invisible killing machine enveloped Xu Qi'an.
Xu Baiyan of the Refining God Realm did not capture the image of the enemy's attack, but the instinct of the seventh-rank martial artist instilled a signal in him: danger!
If you insist on taking Lang'er away, that is, she will burn the jade with Chen Guifei, so that she will inevitably jump off the wall in a hurry, no longer care that this is the harem, and shoot at me, my life cannot be guaranteed, although there is Shenshu monk, but Shenshu is my last hole card........ Xu Qi'an sneered, straightened his waist, and looked with disdain between his eyebrows:
"I, Xu Qi'an, faced tens of thousands of rebels that day, fought alone, killed thousands of enemies, and died without falling. Niangniang thinks, I will be afraid of a threat?
"The minister is not afraid of death, so why should he be afraid of death?"
The minister is not afraid of death, so why should he be afraid of death........ Chen Guifei had obvious surprise in her eyes, and nodded slowly, "That's right, Lord Xu is indeed a hero, planted in your hands......."
The concubine tightened the teacup in her hand, as if she was about to drop the cup.
Suddenly, Xu Qi'an said loudly: "But I am sincere to Lin'an, and I don't want to see her sad." Today's events, I can pretend that they didn't happen. ”
Even if I want to expose the concubine, I have to be able to get out of Jingxiu Palace......... Xu Qi'an thought regretfully.
Chen Guifei stared at him for a moment, put down the teacup, and nodded with satisfaction: "You didn't lie, it seems that you are indeed sincere to Lin'an." In that case, why is Lord Xu reluctant to take refuge?"
Are you a fool to me, I will die if I take refuge in you, only Wei Yuan can be relied on in the capital, and Huaiqing can only be regarded as half, as for Lin'an, she is a princess with no power and no power, and she can't protect me at all.
"Niangniang, the monk is not an empty promise, but relies on practical actions. I am loyal to Duke Wei because Duke Wei treats me with sincerity and I trust him. ”
After speaking, Xu Qi'an turned sideways, glanced at the little father-in-law outside the courtyard, and said: "Despicability is helpless against Niangniang, but I wonder if Niangniang can't do anything to me." ”
Once there is no idea of burning jade, then Chen Guifei will no longer be able to embarrass him.
Although the little father-in-law is a minion, he is now the eyes of Emperor Yuan Jing and can be regarded as surveillance. Everything that happens here will be conveyed to Emperor Yuan Jing word for word.
Unless Chen Guifei kills him directly, otherwise, any conspiracy and trickery are useless to frame him, and the little father-in-law can testify for Xu Qi'an.
This is the reason why Xu Qi'an insisted on keeping his little father-in-law.
Chen Guifei glanced at him deeply, her beautiful eyes closed slightly, "This palace is tired, you can step down....... The gates of Jingxiu Palace are always open for you. ”
"Retire from your post. ”
Xu Qi'an gave up his hand and exited the house.
When the little father-in-law in the courtyard saw him come out, he immediately greeted him and asked, "Lord Xu, what did the noble concubine Niangniang say to you?"
"Don't ask, if you ask, you're not in a good place. "Xu Qi'an didn't have a good airway.
The little father-in-law's face changed slightly.
Walking to the outer courtyard, Lin'an sat in the gazebo, holding his cheeks with one hand and playing with the tea cup with the other, bored.
There were two palace maids standing beside him.
Seeing Xu Qi'an, her round face bloomed with a smile, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, her peach blossom eyes were smart, she beckoned, and said coquettishly:
"Dog minion, come here. ”
The dog slave shouted without any momentum, and it sounded like a coquettish, sassy.
Xu Qi'an took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions, and laughed casually: "Your Highness, the humble post has come out." ”
Lin An immediately asked, "What did the concubine say to you?"
Niangniang said that His Royal Highness was almost at the age of leaving the cabinet, and asked if there was a suitable candidate for the humble position, and recommended a few young talents to her. She can help His Highness find a future husband. ”
Lin'an was stunned for a moment, Hongxia quietly climbed up her face, and said suspiciously: "Will the mother concubine tell you this?"
...... Hey, why don't you get set, when did you become smarter, I want to recommend myself next. Xu Qi'an had no choice but to say helplessly:
"Humble joke. ”
framed willow eyebrows upside down: "Dog minion, you dare to tease the palace." ”
Pinching his waist and glaring at him.
"I'm still a kid and I don't know what molesting is. ”
framed "phew", and felt that Xu Qi'an spoke very interestingly, giggling, like a little hen.
Her smile is both innocent and charming, like a beautiful landscape.
Xu Qi'an laughed, and sighed in his heart.
Previously, his idea was to pretend not to know, leave Jingxiu Palace first, and then tell Wei Yuan what he had discovered, so that Wei Yuan could quickly arrest Lang'er and catch Chen Guifei off guard.
But because of Lin'an's relationship, he inevitably hesitated, although after calming down, he would still not hesitate to expose Chen Guifei.
Unexpectedly, Chen Guifei's rank is not low, and it can be expected that as soon as he walks on the front foot, Lang'er will die of illness on the back foot. In this way, Chen Guifei will have no flaws.
"Chen Guifei is a qualified concubine....... Lin'an is such a stupid girl, and she doesn't know whether it's a blessing or a curse when she grows up in the inner garden of the palace wall. ”
Recalling Chen Guifei's operation just now, she was indeed clever, regardless of the fact that 3721 summoned him over to test it first. As a result, she really found out the clues.
The follow-up frank words seemed to be heart-wrenching, but in fact she had no fear, because she knew that as long as Lang'er was solved, she would have no flaws, and Xu Qi'an couldn't take Lang'er away at all, unless she didn't want to live.
Now that it's been discovered, just say it generously, and you can win my trust....... And then throw the pretty girl as bait, and if I had been a womanizer, I might have taken the bait at the time.......
I have a Shenshu monk covering, I may not die on the spot, but I also expose myself, Emperor Yuanjing, this dog thing will definitely seal me in Sangbo, the ending is still the same, the jade is burned.
Out of Jingxiu Palace, Xu Qi'an said that he still had to deal with important matters, and declined the invitation to frame backgammon.
"Little father-in-law, I have already dealt with the affairs in the palace, and later, when you report to Your Majesty, there are some things you can say and some things you can't say, and this official is here to remind you a few words. Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice.
When the little eunuch heard this, he put on a serious posture, "Lord Xu, please speak." ”
"You have to tell the emperor about Jingxiu Palace. You have to say this: After inquiring about Lang'er, the palace maid of Jingxiu Palace, Lord Xu's face was extremely ugly, and he didn't seem to want to stay any longer, so he didn't even drink tea.
"But Lord Xu hadn't left Jingxiu Palace yet, and was suddenly left by the noble concubine and asked to go to the backyard...... The concubine retreated from everyone and talked to Lord Xu in the house for a while. The servants were left in the courtyard and were not allowed to enter, and although they could see them in the house, they could not hear what they were saying.
After the conversation, Lord Xu left the palace with a heavy heart. ”
After Xu Qi'an finished speaking, he took out five taels of silver tickets from his arms, as well as five taels from the eunuch guarding the door of Jingxiu Palace, a total of ten taels, and handed them to the little father-in-law without fireworks.
The little father-in-law waved his hand while opening his arms: "Lord Xu, you can't do it." ”
After putting away the silver, he carefully reviewed Xu Qi'an's words, and felt that there was no big problem, so he nodded: "Okay, the slave will definitely do it." ”
Xu Qi'an immediately left the palace, and Huaiqing, who was brought from Yu Linwei, borrowed his horse, and hurried back to the Yamen of the guards.
After being passed by the guards, he entered the Haoqi Building and came to the tea room on the seventh floor.
Wei Yuan was not in the tea room, but on the lookout connected to the tea room, he was sitting on a large chair, his hair was scattered, and a black-clothed official was holding a comb and combing his hair.
Wei Yuan beckoned, "Come here, comb your hair." ”
The black-clothed clerk handed the comb to Xu Qi'an with interest, turned around and left the tea room.
"Why did Gong Wei comb his hair at this time?"
Xu Qi'an held the comb hair, from the head down, without knots, combed to the end, and said that it was quite elegant.
"Hair in Buddhism, meaning troubles. Wei Yuan was bathed in the sun, squinting, and his voice was gentle:
"Comb your hair, and the past will be written off. ”
What do you mean?
Today's Wei Yuan is a little strange, what does it mean to write off the past?
"It's not interesting to comb your hair, let's press Wei Gong's head. Xu Qi'an said.
Wei Yuan smiled: "Try it!"
Xu Qi'an put the comb in his arms, opened his five fingers, pressed Wei Yuan's head, and gently pinched the acupuncture points.
Wei Yuan's breathing gradually slowed down, and the warm sunlight sprinkled on the two of them, where they climbed high and looked into the distance, the scenery was beautiful, Xu Qi'an squinted his eyes, feeling that he was back in the world, away from the intrigue in the palace.
"Not bad. Wei Yuan said with a smile.
Sure, this is a barbershop miracle, go back and make you a shampoo chair....... Xu Qi'an coughed and said, "I have something to report for my humble duties." ”
Say. ”
"The lowly office has found out who is behind the scenes. ”
Wei Yuan opened his eyes and didn't speak for a long time.
"It's Concubine Chen!" Xu Qi'an said in a low voice: "I went to Jingxiu Palace today to investigate the case, and found that the palace maid Lang'er next to her was the one who tore up the book of the imperial pharmacy........."
At the moment, he told Wei Yuan about his discovery, Chen Guifei's solicitation, and 1510.
Wei Yuan patted his hands, motioned for him to stop, got up and walked to the edge of the lookout, pressed his hands on the guardrail, and looked into the distance, "Who do you think is the force behind Chen Guifei?"
I don't know...... Xu Qi'an shook his head: "It may be related to Si Tianjian." ”
This was something he had deduced from the existence of the Qi Seeking.
"It's not Si Tianjian. Wei Yuan shook his head, his tone determined.
It's not Si Tianjian...... Xu Qi'an took a few seconds before he reacted, and said in amazement: "Duke Wei, do you know that it is Chen Guifei who is calculating the queen and you?"
At first, she didn't expect that she was ruthless and actually pulled the prince into the water........ After the case was handed over to you, I didn't pay any attention to it. Until this morning, I learned that the queen confessed her guilt, and after listening to you finish the whole story, I guessed that it was Chen Guifei. ”
...... Xu Qi'an stared at his back for a long time, he used to think that Wei Yuan and the Golden Lotus Daoist were both old silver coins, but now he found that the Golden Lotus Daoist was still quite pure and good, not as deep as Wei Yuan.
If it wasn't Si Tianjian, how could Chen Guifei perform the Qi Prospecting Technique, and who else would use the Qi Prospecting Technique besides Si Tianjian?
Xu Qi'an's heart moved, "Gong Wei, I remembered something. ”
"The three-rank warlock who appeared in the Yunzhou case?" Wei Yuan asked rhetorically.
"Duke Wei is very wise......" Xu Qi'an was convinced.
"I've also checked this person, but I haven't found out, do you know what the name of Si Tianjian's three-rank warlock is?" Wei Yuan asked.
"Heavenly Mechanic. Xu Qi'an heard what the king said.
"The Heavenly Mechanic can shield the Heavenly Machine, erase all the traces of his own existence and the traces he has left, his parents will forget him, his wife and children will forget him, and all the written records he left behind will disappear. This is the Heavenly Mechanic.
In addition, the Heavenly Mechanic can also tamper with other people's impressions of him, leaving a vague memory in his heart, but he can't recall it completely. ”
Wei Yuan looked over: "During the Sangbo case, you had checked the information of the first superintendent, but there was no record in any historical materials, not a word. You must know that Emperor Wuzong can change history, but he can't stop the mouths of future generations, let alone wild history.
"It was the Censor who erased all information about the first Censor, as if he had never existed. Even I often mistakenly think that Jian Zheng is the founder of Si Tianjian and the founder of the warlock system.
Then because of the division caused by the historical vacancy, I suddenly remembered that there was also a first supervisor. ”
"How can you check this?" Xu Qi'an was stunned.
He realized once again how terrifying the top powerhouses in this world were.
"If you want to investigate, you have to rely on correction. Wei Yuan said.
It makes sense, only magic can defeat magic, and Dad Wei's thinking is not wrong....... Xu Qi'an nodded secretly.
But the prison refused. Wei Yuan sighed.
This is really an expected answer, there are many secrets in Si Tianjian, and the prison is like an old man who keeps secrets......... Xu Qi'an pursed his lips and asked in a curious tone:
"Gong Wei knows what the first and second grades of warlocks are called?"
Wei Yuan shook his head, "I have always been at odds with Jian Zheng, Da Feng is like a game of chess, he is a chess player, and I am also a chess player, and we often have conflicts due to different ideas." ”
This is the first time Wei Yuan has talked to Xu Qi'an about such "high-end" content.
Perhaps in Wei Yuan's heart, Jian Zheng is his biggest political enemy? Xu Qi'an said tentatively: "How is Duke Wei going to save the queen." ”
"Pushing the uncle out of the country to take the blame, whether it will succeed or not, it remains to be considered, Your Majesty likes checks and balances, and you will also think of abolishing the queen, and the prince will have no opponent, but Your Majesty remembers some unhappy things, and may not have such a cool head, unless it can make him suspect Chen Guifei........
"The queen's heart is still too soft, and when she took this step, she didn't even consult me in advance. Wei Yuan's voice was full of helplessness.
Wei Gong, your subtext is: Queen, are you a pig teammate?
Xu Qi'an's eyes lit up, knowing that the foreshadowing before leaving the palace was not in vain, or maybe he had made a meritorious service.
"Duke Wei, he is guilty of despicability, and he made his own decision just now. ”
Wei Yuan turned his head and frowned: "What's the matter?"
