Half in the river wind, half in the clouds

Jiang Feng was shocked when he saw the portrait in Si Zhi's hand.

Li Longye saw that her expression was not right, so he asked, "Do you know him?"

Jiang Feng nodded and said, "I have an old acquaintance with Yuan Ying, the granddaughter of Prince of Nanyang Yuan Shuyi. This girl is her maid, named Mingque."

Li Longye and Shen Guxing were both startled and looked at each other. Shen Guxing said to Na Sizhi, "You can go down."

Si Zhi didn't understand what was going on, but he still respectfully took his leave.

Jiang Feng knew that this was a serious matter. Besides, Li Longye and Shen Guxing also knew about the jade seal. At this time, he told all the past events about the jade seal: "Not long after Nanyang King Yuan Shu died, his son, the former governor of Liangzhou Yuan Jiankang, was convicted of corruption and Yuan Ying was also imprisoned. Mingque gave me the jade seal in advance, and also gave me 100,000 taels of silver notes. Later, the governor Dou Huairang raided the Yuan family, and I realized that something was wrong. At that time, the jade seal was already a hot potato that could not be thrown away or destroyed. After thinking about it, I privately gave the 100,000 taels of silver notes to Dou Ding, the son of Dou Huairang, hoping that he could plead with his father to spare Yuan Ying's life."

Li Longye frowned and said, "At that time, the late emperor thought that the five ministers who participated in the Shenlong coup had hidden the jade seal, and he tortured and killed the five people one after another, but failed to get it. Later, news came out that the jade seal appeared in Liangzhou, but after all the hustle and bustle, it was empty-handed again. If you knew that the late emperor and Wei had been sleepless day and night for the jade seal, and how many people had their families destroyed and their lives lost for him, would you still have the courage to hide it privately?"

Jiang Feng knew the seriousness of the matter and said, "At that time, Mingque threw the things down and left. When I opened it, I was also shocked. Later, Mingque was finally caught by the governor and was taken home to identify me."

Although Li Longye and Shen Guxing knew that the situation was dangerous and that the girl was safe and sound, they were still worried.

Jiang Feng added, "Ming Que only said that he gave me 100,000 taels of silver notes, but didn't mention a word about the imperial seal. Dou Huairang naturally didn't believe it, and he searched the mansion. He found nothing, so he arrested my father."

Li Longye asked: "Where did you hide the imperial seal? How come it wasn't found?"

Jiang Feng glanced at Shen Guxing and continued, "There is a wooden doll with a mortise and tenon structure at home. It is finely crafted and there is no trace of splicing from the outside. It looks like a wood carving. It is empty inside, just right for the imperial seal. I put it in the most conspicuous position on the bookshelf. They overturned the entire bookshelf and didn't find it. Later, perhaps the 100,000 taels of silver note played a role, and my father was released a few days later. Later, Yuan Ying was exiled and Ming Que disappeared. I asked Dou Ding, but he didn't care. I lost contact with the master and servant. Later, the prince went to Liangzhou. I wanted to ask the prince for help, but the prince said that the Yuan family members were in danger, and I just thought Yuan Ying had died."

After Jiang Feng finished speaking, the three of them fell silent again. The problem at this moment seemed to be Yuan Ying, and Yuan Ying was nowhere to be found in Liangzhou.

Jiang Feng didn't care that Li Longye could kill people with a knife, and asked Shen Guxing: "At that time, how did you know that the jade seal was with me?"

Shen Guxing hesitated and said, "It's His Royal Highness Prince Ning."

Jiang Feng did not comment, but stated the facts: "It seems that the only people who know that the jade seal is with me are Yuan Ying and his servant. I wonder how His Royal Highness Prince Ning knew about it?"

Although the whole thing still seemed a mess, there was a main thread among the myriad threads, which became clearer and clearer with the appearance of the songbird portrait.

That is: Princess Taiping and Li Longji were at odds, but there was one person who benefited even more than Li Longye, and that was Li Dan's eldest son, His Royal Highness Prince Ning Li Chengqi.

In the carriage, Li Longye had a cold look on his face. Jiang Feng felt guilty and went over to him.

Li Longye actually hid!

Ex-boyfriends and ex-girlfriends have been a difficult hurdle to overcome for thousands of years.

However, there was no inappropriate language or action between her and Shen Guxing. She behaved well and even scolded Shen Guxing. What was there for him to be angry about!

Jiang Feng pulled his arm and said coquettishly, "My Lord."

Li Longye actually snorted again.

This is really like not accepting a toast and then drinking a forfeit!

Jiang Feng pretended to sigh and said, "I have always had two doubts. One is how Shen Guxing knew that the jade seal was with me. Today I finally know."

Li Longye looked at her and said sarcastically, "If you meet more often, you won't have any doubts. Shen Guxing is the best at solving doubts anyway."

Jiang Feng didn't get angry when she heard his sour tone, but continued to ask her second question: "Then Your Majesty, why don't you tell me how you got the jade seal?"

Li Longye was shocked and said, "Didn't you guess it?"

Jiang Feng pretended to be confused: "I'm not that smart, I just couldn't guess, so I asked you."

Li Longye said helplessly: "She just thought you were going to give the jade seal to Shen Guxing, so she stole it and gave it to me."

Jiang Feng insisted: "Who is she?"

Li Longye regretted it now. Why did he get jealous of her? The boomerang is coming!

Li Longye said: "I was wrong about that matter."

Jiang Feng followed suit and snorted, saying, "Shen Guxing is good at solving puzzles, but she is good at stealing things! She is treacherous and disloyal, and the prince is really not picky!"

Li Longye looked unhappy and said, "You are so magnanimous to others, why are you so magnanimous to her..."

Jiang Feng originally wanted to mention Chu Yan to provoke Li Longji, but she didn't expect that this guy would be a flower-guarding messenger, protecting her everywhere, which made her really angry.

"How was he treated to her? Was he mean? It's strange what the prince said. Is that my fault too?" Jiang Feng said.

Li Longye looked disappointed and said, "That's not what I meant. She...she is a weak woman, her parents and brothers are all dead, and she is like a floating duckweed. She gave up everything for me. She felt that she had failed Guan Shanyun, and she often felt guilty towards you. She was suffering in every way."

Jiang Feng was stunned, with a thousand horses galloping in his head!

He got so excited that he blurted out dirty words: "Will a green tea bitch sincerely repent? If a person does something wrong, he can just suffer and turn the page, then why does the court have a government office, and why do people still work so hard to seek revenge?"

Jiang Feng couldn't empathize with Li Longye about what Chu Yan did, probably because Jiang Feng was the victim and Li Longye was the vested interest.

Or maybe, everyone loves beauty. Li Longye naturally likes such a good-looking person.

Jiang Feng suddenly lost the energy to care.
