"Please forgive me...... The villain is really innocent. I really didn't understand that Wu Xiao took this matter to avenge his mother. I thought he was colluding with Cang to disadvantage you...... Later, when I learned that Wu Xiao was the biological son of King Zhong, I went to investigate for this, only to find out that Cang left the northwest and came to the Central Plains because he fell in love with King Zhong's concubine Wu Yue. After Cang went to Zhongwang's Mansion for the first time and was kicked out, Wu Yue also left Zhongwang's Mansion, and later she was taken in by Leng Cui, the proprietress of Qiongyu Pavilion, Leng Cui also had a relationship with Cang for her, but Wu Yue shirked it, but Cang was still very good to Wu Yue's mother and son, and although Cang was popular in Qiongyu Pavilion, he had opinions about him in the eyes of other musicians, and he was also a friend of Leng Cui. So there's gossip, and some things don't come out of nowhere. ”

When Nalan Zhishui heard him talk about Leng Cui, she immediately pinched her knuckles. Xie Yun saw her gesture, as if reminding him, and then asked him, "Leng Cui, is that court musician in the Troubled Palace more than twenty years ago?"

He Ziyu didn't know what to say for a while, after all, this matter was more ancient, and he only heard that he didn't understand the specific details, but he remembered one thing: "By the way, although Cang is from the northwest, but his weapon 'double sting', the shape and style are all taken from centipedes or poisonous scorpion tails, and this is common in the southwest region, and the craftsmen who can create this exquisite weapon must have a deep understanding of this, I think this craftsman is also from the Bashu Sichuan and Chongqing regions, or the Miaojiang region further away." ”

Xie Yunxi was shocked, this result once again pointed to the southwest, to the place where Yazhi was going. Some things are too coincidental, if Leng Cui secretly helped Cang, she was indeed a court musician who could have something to do with Wang Rong's father-in-law, but when it came to conspiracy, Cang was that chess piece, and she was not qualified. What was Leng Cui's purpose? She seemed to be sitting and watching a play.

"The Leng Cui I know just left the palace and went to the people, and then it took a few years to join the owner of Qiongyu Pavilion, and gave birth to a daughter named Leng An, the word Yuer. As for where she has gone in the intervening years, I really don't know. He Ziyu frowned.

"Cang's case involves Leng Yu'er. As a mother, she shouldn't let her daughter take risks. Originally, Leng Yu'er was going to be tried as a witness, Leng Cui specially came to the house to talk about this matter, Yazhi said that she couldn't do it, but fortunately, the evidence was conclusive, and one less witness could still be punished. Then there is a problem here, I read Leng Cui's description that day, I think she knows what happened, Leng Yu'er is not an important person in this case, her existence is dispensable......" Pu Cheng, who was listening quietly on the side, expressed his opinion, which is also what he cared about.

"Leng Yuer and Wu Xiao are childhood sweethearts, and Cang wants to use this relationship to hold Wu Xiao hostage. He Ziyu glanced at Pu Cheng and said.

"Having said that, but Leng Yu'er's original confession was that Cang threatened her with Leng Cui's life, do you think that with his quick kung fu, Leng Cui will be taken down? Although I only did the final finishing work, she was the only one who didn't sort it out, and it still became a suspicion. Pu Cheng pinched a piece of jade pendant on his waist, got up and said to Xie Yunxi: "Lord Wang, there is a conjecture below, I think that at least one of Leng Cui or Leng Yu'er is standing on Cang's side, since He Ziyu said before that Leng Cui had talked about fate for Cang and Wu Yue, and everything talks about cause and effect, then there must be a reason for this, or what benefits Cang can bring to Leng Cui, otherwise he will not help for no reason." And she planted Leng Yu'er in Cang, maybe it was Leng Cui's 'eyes' to look at the overall situation. ”

"Pu Gongzi doesn't know, there are really some causes and effects in this. Leng Cui once studied the piano under my grandfather Nangong Xiaomen, and was also my mother's best friend. Nalan Zhishui Xiang, she glanced at Xie Yunxi beside her and continued: "When I was a child, I often heard my mother mention her. Earlier, my grandfather and grandfather had the idea of healing the sound of the piano, so now they are implemented in the Nangong family and taught my mother and Leng Cui, and later Leng Cui left the Nangong family and entered the palace as a musician. It made my grandfather very sad, and he never received an apprentice again. It wasn't until he saw Wu Yue's talent that he made an exception. Maybe Leng Cui felt that Wu Yue was like she did back then, and she felt pity. ”

"What the princess said is that the people of the rivers and lakes are not as simple as you, and many things are not what they seem. Pu Cheng said to Nalan Zhishui.

Xie Yunxi looked at Pu Cheng and said with a smile: "It is true that everything has a cause and effect, so why did you come to this palace?"

Pu Cheng bowed to Xie Yun and said with a serious look: "I also doubted Yazhi's identity before, and I was instigated by Wen Zixiao, and there were many incidents. Now that I have been reinstated, Xu Su, who is related to it, has left, so I want to continue to investigate this matter with He Ziyu, so as to atone for my crimes. I hope you can give me this opportunity. ”

Xie Yunxi listened to what he said and did not reply to him. Xie Yunxi stared at the emerald green jade pendant on Pu Cheng's waist for a while, before he got up and came to Pu Cheng and said a meaningful word: "You are so familiar, has this king seen you before?"

Pu Cheng's heart trembled, and he subconsciously grabbed the jade pendant. He suddenly became nervous in his heart: "Lord Wang, you are laughing, didn't we meet in Kaifeng Mansion last time?"

Xie Yunxi saw his small movement, and slowly walked past his side and whispered, "This king is talking about a farther way forward. ”

Pu Cheng stiffened and didn't dare to reply to Xie Yunxi, He Ziyu felt a trace of strangeness in his eyes when he saw it, and he said casually: "Lord Wang, he sometimes goes in and out of Dali Temple on behalf of Lord Zhang to spread the word, so you should have seen it a few times." ”

Xie Yunxi stretched out his hand and patted Pu Cheng's shoulder and said with a smile: "This king is just joking with you, don't be nervous." Then he returned to his seat.

"You should be talking about more than that. Xie Yunxi raised his eyes and looked at Pu Cheng.

Pu Cheng felt a little uncomfortable with Xie Yunxi, who had a changeable expression, and he had something in his heart that he had to do no matter what, and it had always driven him to stand here.

"Yes, I know in my heart that you are a beautiful son. This time he went to Yuzhou with Xu Su, I am afraid that there will be danger. Pu Cheng didn't dare to look at Xie Yunxi.

"Go on. ”

"Lord Wang, you should know the 'No. 1 Dart in North China' Changfeng Dart Bureau, and Xu Su is the eldest son of my adoptive father Xu Changfeng, Xu Changfeng has twelve total dart heads, each of which is strong in martial arts, and Xu Su will not be summoned home for non-important things. I happened to see a letter from home that day saying that more than half of the total dart head was killed or wounded, and I was afraid that the dart they were walking on had encountered a very difficult guy. According to Yazhi's character, if he knew that Xu Su was in trouble, he would definitely help. ”

"Your adoptive father turned out to be 'North China's No. 1 Dart' Xu Changfeng. This king suddenly felt that this Kaifeng Mansion was also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Xie Yunxi smiled playfully: "Don't worry about him, he has the ability." Since you want to participate in this opportunity over there, you go to He Ziyu to investigate Qiongyu Pavilion Leng Cui together, and this king will give you seven days, be sure to find out. ”

The two of them sent them away in bronze again, but Xie Yunxi sat in the lobby. Seeing that he was preoccupied, Nalan Zhishui couldn't help but take his hand.

He Ziyu, who walked out of the hall, glanced at Pu Cheng and said from him: "This jade pendant is very exquisite, where did you get it? Why haven't I seen you wear it before?"

Pu Cheng didn't answer his words, but walked straight out of the palace. Bronze quietly remembered these words, and when Pu Cheng went out, he glanced at this jade pendant.

"It's all such a coincidence, and now all the fingers are pointing at that one place. Leng Cui has relationships with too many people, or wants to confuse the line of sight. Xie Yunxi whispered to her.

"I heard Lu Lu say that Miss Leng seems to be a dear brother with a happy heart... I come to the hospital every time to look for him......"

"Really?" Xie Yunxi thought silently in his heart, and then said: "What Pu Cheng said just now is not unreasonable, only Leng Yu'er, as Leng Cui's eyeliner, can explain all this. But what is her purpose, if her purpose is I don't have to wait until now to make a move. And Liang Wangfu has never had anything to do with Qiongyu Pavilion, and they are all very peaceful. ”

"If Miss Leng is eyeliner, she will definitely follow her mother's order to go to Yuzhou, so let He Gongzi check later, but she is a little worried. Nalan Zhishui looked at Xie Yunxi's eyes, and remembered that Xie Yunxi had been looking at Pu Cheng's jade pendant, and she also felt a little familiar with that jade pendant, not only asked him: "You seem to be very interested in the jade pendant on Pu Cheng's body just now, and that jade jade doesn't seem to be something he can have...... I feel a little familiar......"

"Of course, this jade pendant is called 'Jade Jade Bamboo' and it is not his thing. Xie Yunxi said that this bronze came with a letter from the palace from Gonggong Gao, and then said to Nalan Zhishui: "You go to the study first and wait for me, I want to talk to Gonggong Gao about something." ”

Xie Yunxi opened the letter, but there was only a simple sentence on it, but he was stunned, and he caught up with Gonggong Gao, who was about to leave. Gao Gongcheng got into the carriage back to the palace, and when he saw Xie Yunxi, he said that he was going to go, so he got out of the car.

"Grandpa Gao, what are the three dowry gifts that my father gave to the Nalan family? I asked Bronze if he was willing to tell me anything, and why didn't he let me handle my marriage?" Xie Yunxi walked a distance from Grandpa Gao, avoiding all the subordinates.

"Little Wangye, it's not that I won't leave it to you, but you can't do it. Gao Gonggong explained to Xie Yunxi in a serious manner: "The slave maid has followed the old prince for more than 20 years, and I have also watched you grow up. The slave can tell you, but please don't tell the old prince about it to your face. ”

"Okay, you can say it. ”

"These three dowry gifts are the seal pattern divination, the Nine Heavens Spirit Crane Diagram, and the Seven Stars Dust Beads. ”

Xie Yunxi's brain exploded instantly when he heard these three things, and he was very shocked: "This is a relic of the former national teacher Nalan Liyu, which was regarded as a national treasure after being dedicated to the founding emperor. The Xuanle Palace has not been opened since I can remember, and how could such an important thing be used by my father as my dowry?"

Xie Yunxi had already guessed in his heart, but he never expected that it would be these three things, and Xie Yu would be able to persuade the emperor to return the national treasure in this form.

Seeing that he reacted so violently, Gonggong Gao had already expected it: "Only in this way can you no longer have opinions on the royal family in the Nalan family, and increase the chances for you to marry the little princess." ”

"What about the conditions? What did my father promise to the emperor?" Xie Yunxi asked him anxiously with a frown.

"Revoke the status of the prince, never participate in court politics from now on, and move to the Xuanle Palace in the imperial city except for the emperor's order not to leave the palace for half a step. Gao Gong said fairly.

Xie Yunxi couldn't believe it, it turned out that Xie Yu's departure from home was an exchange, and Xie Yu had long explained to him on the grounds of the emperor's order. Xie Yunxi recalled that he was only fourteen years old when Xie Yu entered the palace, and half a year later, Xie Yunxi was recruited into the palace by the emperor and canonized as a prince.

"But you don't have to worry, the old prince can stand up in adversity. Think about it for so many years, your career has been so smooth because of the old prince to shield you from the wind and rain. You are in the age of a weak crown, and you have not yet taken a wife. The emperor and the queen mother have all pointed out the marriage for you, and they have said it many times. Ministers talk about things, ministers with the same political views as you often write to the emperor to ask for marriage, and ministers with different political views often impeach you for ignoring the order of the Son of Heaven and saying in private that you are good at breaking your sleeves. All this was stopped by the old prince, so it did not reach your ears, although the old prince did not care about the government over the years, but he has guidance for you, and now you are about to get married, he can no longer protect you, and the road ahead depends on yourself. When you came to the palace that day to say that you had withdrawn from the marriage, it really hurt the heart of the old prince, and he paid a lot behind his back. As a subordinate, there are some things to say and some things not to say, if you have anything else to ask your father-in-law, Mr. Nalan, he will give you a better answer. The slave and maid still need to go back in time to resume their lives, so they don't stay, please go back, little prince. After that, Gonggong Gao saluted Xie Yunxi.

Xie Yunxi's heart was still turbulent, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. He watched Grandpa Gao's carriage leave, and took out the letter brought by Grandpa Gao from his arms. He opened it carefully, and it was a simple phrase: "Go with your heart, don't let the horse go." ”

This sentence is confirming Xie Yu's letting go, and Xie Yunxi silently imprinted it in the depths of his heart.
