Detective in the Red Chamber

Although until now she has not been able to understand, what is so strange about the counterfeit 'Spiritual Treasure Jade' that it would make Emperor Guangde change color.

But it is this unknown that makes people feel even more anxious and insoluble.

Sure enough, companions are like companions to tigers!

Suddenly, Jia Yuanchun lifted his head upwards, trying to get over the towering barrier, and looked at his flat belly, Xinghe's eyes were full of eagerness.

Although she used to pride herself on being a woman who would never let a man down, but at this moment, what is really worth relying on is a woman's ability to bear children.

As long as you have a child, as long as you can give birth to Longer for Long Live God...

Thinking in this way, Jia Yuanchun gritted his silver teeth, separated his legs, and tried a more difficult movement.

Chapter 556 Time to wake up

Tap, tap...

The chaotic sound of horseshoes was going around at the crossroads, but they never moved a bit——Sun Shaozong had been lingering in this place two streets away from Yizhong Prince's Mansion for a while.

Strange to say, even though it was the first time he came here, he couldn't help but feel a sense of homelessness.

Excited, apprehensive, mixed with contempt for indisputable anger and pity for misfortune.

The eldest son of the emperor who traveled through the Chengda Zhou Dynasty, it can be said that half of his buttocks had already sat on the Golden Luan Hall, but in the end he was confused because he was imprisoned and women were occupied.

It's even worse now, even the only illegitimate child was killed by his dead soldiers, and the relics were even sent over as birthday gifts.

Hey~

Time travel is risky, you need to be cautious when pretending to be aggressive!

Sun Shaozong shook his head speechlessly, made up his mind to turn the horse's head around, and walked towards Prince Yizhong's mansion—no matter how much he delayed, this imperial decree could not be violated, unless he wanted to be Prince Yizhong's companion.

But when he saw the next intersection and looked at the majestic mansion from a distance, Sun Shaozong felt a little less uneasy, but his excitement doubled.

Anyway, this is also the first time that two traversers face each other in the world of Red Mansions, and it is very likely to be the only one!

It is said to be a historic meeting, so it shouldn't be considered a business bragging, right?

In a daze, Sun Shaozong seemed to hear the rolling wheels of history, rolling forward wheel by wheel.

uh~

It is true that there are wheels rolling, but what is loaded on them is not history, but a carload of dung.

Being stopped by the irritating smell, Sun Shaozong suddenly became sober, and hurriedly rushed into the street where the Yizhong Prince's Mansion was located before the other party rushed to the middle of the intersection.

"who!"

"Stop now!"

Just after rushing a few steps away, two teams of troops suddenly surged out from the lanes on both sides, the twelve in front were holding swords and guns at the same time, and the twelve in the back were all four-edged short crossbows.

Look at this attire, it should undoubtedly belong to the Huben Camp under the command of Taiwei Qiu.

"Sun Shaozong of Shuntian Mansion received an order from the sage to give a birthday gift to Prince Yizhong."

Sun Shaozong announced his identity in a loud voice, and at the same time got off the horse, and spread his hands and feet in big characters, as if he was at the mercy of inspection.

Hearing the word 'Sun Shaozong', the soldiers of the two teams on the opposite side were obviously relieved, but they still maintained their battle formation, and only the two leading generals stepped forward to search for them.

After the two generals carefully confirmed that Sun Shaozong did not carry any murder weapon, they asked respectfully, "Dare to ask Mr. Sun, did you bring any evidence?"

"Here, here is the token."

Only then did Sun Shaozong take out a golden arrow from his sleeve pocket and show it to the two generals. It was specially sent by Dai Quan before he left the palace.

He didn't take the initiative to show it just now, nor did he deliberately pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, but according to Dai Quan's instructions, the golden arrow must be shown as a token when someone asks about it.

If you don't know it and take the initiative to show the golden arrow, not only will it not be able to serve as a token, but it will be regarded as a counterfeit thief, and you will directly shoot random arrows into a hedgehog and pull it down.

Those two inspected the chief in turn, and returned them with respectful hands, then whistled, and each led the soldiers back to the alleys on both sides.

Sun Shaozong knew that there must be more than one sentry post on this street, so he didn't mount his horse again, but strode forward with the reins.

Sure enough, after that, he went through two secret whistles one after another, checked three times like a massage, and finally arrived at the gate of the mansion.

He explained his purpose to the soldiers guarding the gate, and after a while, a thousand households came out to welcome Sun Shaozong directly into the palace.

However, this is not so much a palace as a large barracks. There are three steps, one post and five steps and one sentry. They are all officers and soldiers with helmets and armour. None of them were seen.

Walking through the houses all the way, before entering the fourth courtyard, I saw three people standing in front of the moon gate, the one in the middle was a brocade robed eunuch, and the left and right were two dragon guards from hundreds of households.

Seeing Sun Shaozong approaching, the dragon guard Baihu on the right took a few steps to meet him and knelt on one knee and said, "Mark Liu Yihu, I have met Lord Qianhu."

Although the brocade-robed eunuch did not come up to meet him, he greeted him with a smile.

On the contrary, the hundred households on the left just cupped their hands loosely, and then urged with a sullen face, "Since the emperor's order is in the body, let's see the arrow of the order first."

Needless to say, this guy must belong to the Nanzhen government secretary!

This is the insurance provided by the Supreme Emperor to Prince Yizhong, so as to prevent the eldest son of the emperor from being foolish and committing suicide.

Of course, with Emperor Guangde's fear of Prince Yizhong, no one knew that Prince Yizhong would be buried with him once the Supreme Emperor came to heaven, but at least when the old man was still alive, he would never want white-haired people to give black hair people.

After going through an unprecedented and meticulous search, including digging out his socks several times, Sun Shaozong was finally able to enter the inner courtyard.

Although there are fewer guard posts in the inner courtyard, there are still no servants and maids.

That Liu Yihu has good eyesight, probably saw Sun Shaozong's doubts, and explained in a low voice beside him, "I heard that after the Laoshizi hot air balloon flew out last year, many people were killed in this courtyard, and the humble job was transferred after that." of."

tsk~

It is estimated that the guards at that time were also among the heads.

The four of them stopped and stopped all the way to deal with the secret whistle, and finally arrived in a quiet small courtyard. The leading eunuch in brocade robes summoned a group of five secret whistle, and after confirming that Prince Yizhong was in the house, they arranged their clothes and prepared Knock on the door.

However, just as he was about to knock, the door suddenly creaked and was pulled open from the inside.

Immediately, an old man with white beard and hair came out unsteadily from inside.

"The servants and servants of the lower officials have seen the prince."

The three of Liu Yihu bowed and saluted busy.

But Sun Shaozong was stunned on the spot when he saw his hunched and ugly appearance.

This is Prince Yizhong? !

Is this the senior traveler who is flamboyant and loves to pretend? !

The image I sketched in my mind before has completely collapsed, right? !

But if you think about it carefully, this may be the result of too much pressure on him from being banned for more than two years.

After all, not everyone can live and die bearishly.

Just as he was sobbing, he saw that Prince Yizhong hunched down the steps, but came running straight towards him.

Only then did Sun Shaozong come to his senses, and was about to bow to salute, but just as his waist bent down, a wrinkled hand was spread out in front of him.

"Bring it."

The dry and hoarse voice, as if it had been hoarse just now, really complemented that image.

but……

What did he mean by 'bring it'?

Could it be that when Prince Yizhong was about to celebrate his birthday, Emperor Guangde would also send someone to give gifts, so when he saw him, he guessed his purpose.

While Sun Shaozong was making up a suitable reason in his mind, Prince Yizhong gave him another slap in the face, and urged, "Hurry up, it's just a psychic gem, nothing like my king's ink marks."

His words showed impatience on the surface, but inside they contained joy and pride.

But Sun Shaozong couldn't distinguish these details at all, because he was completely stunned by these words!

How did Prince Yizhong know that he was here to give the psychic gem?

Could it be that someone in the palace leaked secrets?

wrong!

At that time, besides himself, the emperor was surrounded by only Dai Quan - Dai Quan couldn't possibly be Prince Yizhong's man, right? !

Besides, judging by the densely packed sentry posts, if Emperor Guangde hadn't given the arrow to order, who would have passed the news in front of him?

Could it be the use of carrier pigeons?

Not to mention that those hunting bows are not vegetarians, if a carrier pigeon lands near Prince Yizhong in this day and night, I'm afraid someone would have discovered it long ago!

Can't explain it!

All this is completely inexplicable!

Sun Shaozong stared blankly at Prince Yizhong, his contempt and pity just now turned into astonishment.

At the same time, he was a little unbelievable, if he really had such unfathomable intelligence capabilities, how did the senior traveler in front of him be overthrown by Emperor Guangde?

It wasn't until Prince Yizhong urged him a few more times that Sun Shaozong took out the psychic gem from his purse as if he was sleepwalking.

Prince Yizhong took it in his hand unhurriedly, looked over and over for a few times, and suddenly threw it back to Sun Shaozong, shaking his head and said, "I'm afraid I've disappointed my brother, Zhou Xi is not my son, my son It is impossible to have any heirs in this lifetime."

I go!

He already knew about Zhou Xi's death, and even some people speculated that Zhou Xi was his illegitimate son!

and……

What does this categorical conviction mean that I will definitely die in this life?

Are you too sure?

And there was clearly a bit of complacency in the tone—is it still a good thing to cut off children and grandchildren?

Before Sun Shaozong's doubts were solved, Prince Yizhong said in a hoarse voice, "It's really difficult for him. When I was young, I coaxed him to play, and I casually said a few trivial things in the Dream of the Red Chamber. I still remember it so clearly after decades." .”

"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have given this jade to Zhou Xi. Although he is not my son, his mother had an affair with me after all... Sigh~!"

As he said that, he sighed heavily, then flicked his robe sleeves again, and said calmly, "Come on, this dream of the Red Mansion is about to wake up, what does life and death in this world have to do with me? "

"Go back and tell my brother that I'm leaving. If he still has a little bit of brotherhood in his heart, he might as well come over with the emperor to see me off—I'll wait until my [-]th birthday at the most."

Before he finished speaking, without waiting for Sun Shaozong to respond, he put his hands behind his back, staggered but seemed somewhat at ease, and walked out along the stone road.

As he walked, he sang in a hoarse voice, "Everyone knows that gods are good, but fame and fame can't be forgotten! Where are the ancient and modern generals? The pile of grass in the barren mound is gone. The world knows that gods are good, only gold and silver can't be forgotten! In the end, I only hate gathering There are not many, and after a long time, the eyes are closed. Everyone in the world is good to gods, only a beautiful wife..."

This is……

Ready to commit suicide? !

But looking at it like that, it really doesn't look like a person is about to die.

If you really want to give up, how can you show that kind of ecstasy and smug expression just now?

This feels a bit like-ready to travel back to modern times!

Sun Shaozong watched as the figure of Prince Yizhong gradually drifted away, and the singing gradually became inaudible, but the restlessness in his heart did not abate, but instead became louder.

Although he may not be willing to travel back now, but if Prince Yizhong really finds a way to travel back, he is absolutely unwilling to miss it!

also……

From what channel did Prince Yizhong learn that he was ordered to send the psychic gem?

This huge mystery must be solved in a way, otherwise, when I go back to work, how will I face Emperor Guangde? !

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong didn't hesitate any longer, stepped up the steps, and directly broke into Prince Yizhong's study room!

Chapter 557 Plausible and Illusory

Although Liu Yihu and the others felt that the scene just now was strange and inexplicable, they didn't know the details after all, so they were far less shocking than Sun Shaozong.

Coupled with the fact that they are guarding flammable and explosive objects like Prince Yizhong all day long, they naturally understand the truth of 'the less you know, the safer you are'.

Therefore, the three of them had absolutely no intention of delving into it.

He was thinking about sending Sun Shaozong a gift, but who would have thought that he would rush into Prince Yizhong's study.

Although the study was searched by people every day, the three of them were still shocked when they saw this scene suddenly, and chased them in after shouting.

"Master Sun!"

"Master Qianhu!"
