I have an altar of luck
Page 458
After a while, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, despite your orders, I will do my best."
Jingtai tapped the table with his fingers, pondered for a moment and said:
"Something happened in the harem yesterday. Concubine Shu accidentally drowned and died, but I don't think it's that simple. I heard that you were famous for handling cases when you were in Qingzhou. After much deliberation, I decided to leave this matter to you. Do it, don't let me down."
Chen Yuan's heart sank, it really came true.
It turned out to be what Tao Qingyuan said, the death of the concubine in the harem was strange, this is not a good job, but... for him, he could just take this opportunity to search the harem properly.
No need to ask his good sister-in-law for help.
As for why Jingtai came to him, Chen Yuan didn't know, maybe it was what he said, maybe there were other plans.
After all, if it's really about investigating a case, you should go to someone from the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
What is so strange is not yet known, there are indeed many enshrinements in the palace, but these strong men also know what they are, and they will not put their minds on the harem to spy.
"The minister obeys the order."
"Also... don't say anything about this matter. You carry out my warrant to investigate. After the investigation results come out, it's best not to let outsiders know too much."
Jingtai said in a deep voice.
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, and his mind couldn't help but radiate more.
Could it be... Jingtai himself knows something?
Or, the death of this concubine Shu is a bit... disgraceful.
"I obey the decree, and I will keep my mouth shut," he thought a lot in his heart, but his expression did not show it, and his attitude was very respectful.
"It's these three things that I'm looking for you, all right... let's get back."
Jingtai said in a deep voice.
Chen Yuan received the warrant, cupped his fists and bowed:
"Wei Chen retire."
After finishing speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but when he walked to the door, Jingtai squinted his eyes, let go of the teacup in his hand, and smashed it to the ground with a 'bang'.
And Chen Yuan subconsciously looked back.
4Chapter 16 The heavenly book changes, and the trace finally appears!
This is definitely a subconscious behavior. After Chen Yuan entered the palace, his mind was always tense, and he didn't dare to be careless at all. Under this situation, naturally, he would not remain indifferent.
Chen Yuan and Jingtai met each other and looked at each other, the atmosphere stagnated for a moment.
And this moment also made Chen Yuan's heart sink, and he always felt a little inexplicably familiar.
Test him?
Taking a deep breath, Chen Yuan calmly said:
"What other orders does Your Majesty have?"
Jingtai stared at Chen Yuan, suddenly smiled, pointed to the things on the table and said:
"I forgot to take the seven-star map I gave you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your suggestion." Chen Yuan showed a slight smile on his face, stepped forward and rolled up the seven-star map slowly, and clapped his hands again: "I will leave."
"Well, let's go."
Turning around, Chen Yuan quickly left the imperial study room and heaved a long sigh of relief after leaving the palace at an extremely fast speed. Just now he almost really thought that Jingtai was about to throw a cup.
However, if it is just to deal with him, it seems that there is no such need. A Cao Zhengxian can easily take him down, and it is just a whim.
And this feeling made him very uncomfortable.
Looking back at the palace, Chen Yuan's eyes flashed a coldness, and he turned and left the place.
……
……
The words were divided into two parts, and the time went back to the time when Chen Yuan had just left the imperial study.
Cao Zhengxian waved his hand lightly, and the fragments of the teacup that fell on the ground turned into nothingness in an instant, and disappeared in front of the two of them. Jingtai squinted his eyes:
"It seems that there is no such thing as what you said."
Cao Zhengxian smiled when he heard this:
"It may be that the old minister was wrong before. It's just that there is nothing wrong with being careful. Chen Yuan's ambition is indeed not small. The old minister has been tasting the poem written before breaking through the barrier for the past few days. I always feel that In addition to his literary talents, there may be some..."
Cao Zhengxian didn't finish his sentence, but Jingtai glanced at him and said lightly:
"It's just a few lines of poetry, Cao Qing won't really judge Chen Yuan's disloyalty to me based on this?"
This is totally a crime of wanting to add.
The poem written by Chen Yuan clearly meant the spirit of the world, it just depends on how you understand it, at least Jingtai didn't care about these trivial things.
"No, no, no... the old minister just..."
"I know that Yang Yuanqing suffered some injuries from Chen Yuan, but this is a fair fight, so don't bear grudges." Jingtai said very calmly.
"Your Majesty misunderstood, how could the old minister care about a junior."
Cao Zhengxian quickly argued.
He really felt that Chen Yuan's son was not so easy to control, and he had great ambitions.
Jingtai stared at him for a moment, and also smiled freely:
"I still know Cao Qing's temperament, it's just a joke, don't take it to heart."
"Your Majesty will be considerate of the old minister." Then there was a flash of reminiscence in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, when Chen Yuan came into the imperial study, did you feel a familiar feeling?"
"what you mean?"
Jingtai was taken aback, but didn't understand what Cao Zhengxian was saying.
"Perhaps it was the old minister's illusion. The moment Chen Yuan came in, the old minister always felt a little familiar, like your Majesty's aura when you received the stars from the observatory a few days ago."
Jingtai shook his head:
"Cao Qing thought too much, the one who intercepted the starlight that day was definitely the real monarch who used the secret method, how could it have anything to do with Chen Yuan?
He is only a mere alchemy realm cultivation base, if he can have such a means to pay back?There is no need to be attached to the imperial court to do things. It should be that the seven-star map I just made you dazed. "
He didn't even think about it in that direction.
How can it be?
It is absolutely impossible.
Cao Zhengxian also knew that it was too late, and he was really suspicious of Chen Yuan, but bystanders knew that he did feel a little familiar before.
"Thinking about it, Your Majesty has a wonderful brushwork. I am afraid that only Wu Daozi, a famous painter more than 20 years ago, can stand shoulder to shoulder with Your Majesty."
Cao Zhengxian quickly praised it.
"Cao Qing deserves to be Cao Qing. This flattering skill is much better than that of Chen Yuan." Jingtai smiled heartily, he did have some experience in painting.
But if it is compared with Wu Daozi, the world-famous painter, it is simply too far behind.
It's a pity that this person's whereabouts have been elusive since more than 20 years ago, and he hasn't shown up for many years. There were even rumors that this person had already died in Nanjiang a few years ago.
It makes countless people who love to paint the Tao feel sorry, including Jingtai.
The painter's way of painting is almost unreal, and supplemented by supernatural powers, it is true that the person in the painting can be brought back to life.
"What the old minister said is the truth."
Jingtai smiled lightly.
"Your Majesty, it stands to reason that the people from the Ministry of Punishment should be allowed to investigate the cause of Concubine Shu's death, why should they be allowed..." Cao Zhengxian asked casually with his eyes flickering.
Hearing this, Jingtai's face changed immediately, from sunny to cloudy, and said lightly:
"I've said it before, it's not something glorious, and it shouldn't be known by too many people."
"Old minister understands, but Your Majesty really values Chen Yuan. Could it be that he intends to cultivate this person to take on important responsibilities?" Cao Zhengxian asked with a smile while squinting his eyes.
"As long as he can show his value, why don't I reuse him? The power that Xuntiansi has is still a bit stronger, maybe let Chen Yuan break down Xuntiansi for me."
"Your Majesty is using Chen Yuan as a sword?"
"Isn't it his honor to be the knife in my hand?"
"Your Majesty said yes."
"How many people do not have the qualifications to become one, but now we have to see if Chen Yuan is a qualified candidate. I don't want this knife to come back in the future.
Jingtai's eyes were extremely deep, staring into the distance and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty said yes."
"I hope Chen Yuan is a smart person."
……
……
After leaving the palace, Chen Yuan went directly to the Department of the Eastern Imperial City, casually threw the 'family treasure' mentioned earlier into the book of heaven, and he didn't care about it anymore.
Now is a good time to search the harem thoroughly to find the place where the dragon vein suppressed that senior Mo Luo.
After counting four or five people in the Imperial City Department, Chen Yuan led them directly to the harem, where not many people are needed, Jingtai has already told him clearly that it is not appropriate to publicize this matter, if he still doesn't know the fun, It's a little out of place.
But not too little.
It is impossible for him to investigate alone, and there are always a few clever subordinates around him to obey orders.
Before entering the harem, Chen Yuan informed the entire mission of this time, and Tao Qingyuan, who was accompanying him, was slightly taken aback. Obviously, he did not expect that what he said was so accurate.
This time Chen Yuan entered the palace to investigate this matter.
Now this stall has fallen on him indirectly, the world is really impermanent...
When Chen Yuan arrived at the harem with Tao Qingyuan and the others, there were already several eunuchs waiting, apparently having already received Jingtai's order.
Waiting for Chen Yuan very respectfully.
Seeing him approaching with people, the leading old eunuch said quickly:
"The old slave has seen Chen Qingshi."
"I've met your father-in-law, what's your surname?" Chen Yuan raised his brows.
"The old slave's surname is Zhao."
"Eunuch Zhao is waiting for Chen specifically?"
"Exactly."
Then the old eunuch told the reason.
Holding the imperial warrant given by Jingtai, no one dared to stop Chen Yuan at the outer checkpoints, but even if there was a token in the harem, he could not move around at will.
After all, there are female relatives inside...
It is necessary to be accompanied by eunuchs who are on duty in the palace, lest Chen Yuan offend any nobleman, Chen Yuan really couldn't deny this after thinking about it, and then readily agreed.
Chen Yuan still didn't discriminate against these people who 'cut grass and roots'.
It doesn't matter if someone follows him, as long as he doesn't disturb his work.
Anyway, he didn't have any intention of disrupting the harem.
The headed old eunuch has also been in the harem for many years, and his cultivation has almost reached the peak level of Tongxuan in his perception. As for the cultivation and status of the few who follow him, they are much lower.
The old eunuch took Chen Yuan to the 'crime scene' yesterday. On the way, Chen Yuan finally got some descriptions of the case from the old eunuch.
To tell the truth, this is really what he just found out.
Before that, he only knew that Concubine Shu in the harem drowned and died, and then... disappeared.
Nothing, check the fart!
The old eunuch spoke eloquently, not daring to hide anything, and these things had already been compiled into a file. Later, Chen Yuan felt that the old eunuch did not speak in detail enough.
