Yan Zhaohe chose to leave from Jin'an Post House, telling others that he was going south, so naturally he was not afraid of Xun Zhui knowing.The plague is rampant. If Yan Zhaohe rushes to cure the plague, he will definitely go to the Ivy Villa to find Bo Yan.

As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and Xun Zhui couldn't figure out where Yan Zhaohe was at this time. He repeatedly flipped through the brochure Zhao Chuanzhi sent up, and the word "Chin Niang" stood in front of his eyes. He closed the brochure impatiently and went out to breathe. .

The wound on his back slowly grew new flesh, and the wound healed slower than before, but it was more itchy than when it scabbed.Xun Zhui scratched his back, but he didn't dare to scratch hard.The prince followed behind him, whenever he saw signs that he was going to be scratched, he shouted to His Majesty absolutely not.

When I got up early, the sky was very cloudy, Xun Zhui stood under the eaves and watched the swallows flying back and forth in the sky, and after a while, the heavy rain poured down from the sky.The palace people hurriedly found raincloth to cover the flowers and plants in the garden, so as not to destroy all the delicate flowers.

Xun Zhui rubbed his arms, shivering for no reason.He dismissed all the palace people in the hall, and the already empty bedroom became even more silent.

That night in Prince Zhao's Mansion, Yan Zhaohe danced his sword in the rainy night, and his every move was extremely agile.Xun Zhui sighed softly, went back to the room and took out the sword that he hadn't used for a long time.Naturally, he didn't have the ability to get caught in the rain like Yan Zhaohe. He was so weak that he couldn't stand the toss, so he could only stand on the small open space at the entrance of the hall and swipe a few times at will.

This sword was custom-made by an outside craftsman, and the hilt and blade are relatively light.Originally, the emperor should use the sword handed down from generation to generation in the hall, but Xun Zhui has no strength in his arms and can't play at all.

In the evening, Chu Yang came to find Xunzhui, who was hanging on the railing of the corridor to catch the rainwater with both hands.

Chu Yang stepped into the eaves with his front foot, and the palace man immediately took the umbrella from his hand with his back foot.Xun Zhui opened his fingers, and a handful of rainwater slipped away from his fingertips, mixing with the wetness on the ground.

"Your Majesty, I got the news that the concubine in Chongwang's mansion suddenly fell ill. Just now, Chongwang sent the concubine away secretly. Judging from the direction of sending him away, it should be a Zhuangzi in the suburbs of him." Chu Yang said.

Xun Zhui raised his eyes to look at Chu Yang, and Chu Yang said again: "His Royal Highness King Zhao asked his ministers to strictly monitor him before leaving, and report to His Majesty immediately if there is any change."

Xun Zhui waved his hand to show that he already knew, and he can go wherever he should go and don't bother me.

Since Yan Zhaohe asked Chu Yang to keep a close eye on him, it meant that he had received some news, and Xun Zhui was too lazy to guess what Yan Zhaohe was thinking from Chu Yang.People like Yan Zhaohe have never made mistakes in the overall situation, so he has no interest in being a pawn.

Chu Yang seemed to have something to say, Xun Zhui immediately jumped off the railing and turned back to the room.The palace servants stood in front of Chu Yang cleverly, and presented oiled paper umbrellas with both hands.

Xunzui heard a heavy sigh outside the door, and smiled happily with his curved eyes.

The eighth princess brought the dinner in her small kitchen to find Xun Zhui, Xun Zhui pushed all the memorials on the desk to the floor, and the brother and sister sat in the study with no airs and finished their meal.

Li Yuluan looked at the memorials on the ground and bit his chopsticks: "Isn't it good to just throw the ministers' notebooks on the ground?"

Xunzhui told Li Yuluan with practical actions that these memorials are not important, how to kick the memorial from one side of the study to the other in a live performance.

Li Yuluan was overwhelmed, he held his chin with both hands to watch Xun's chasing and kicking memorial, and couldn't help sighing: "Brother Huang, you really don't look like an emperor."

Xunzui stopped and looked back at Li Yuluan.

"Be sure to put on a good show in front of outsiders, and don't reveal your secrets." Li Yuluan said again.

Xun Zhui was helpless, pretending to hit Li Yuluan, but Li Yuluan smiled and didn't hide, and finally Xun Zhui's raised hand just slapped Li Yuluan on Li Yuluan's head twice when it fell.

In fact, Li Yuluan was just too bored, so she didn't bother her too much when she came to chat with Brother Huang for a meal.Before leaving, he picked up the memorials one by one, placed them on the desk, and asked the small kitchen to pack the pastries that he had made in the morning. Li Yuluan jumped and walked away in the rain with the food box in his arms.

The little girl was lively, and her skirt was covered in mud spots.Xun Zhui watched Li Yuluan leave, seeing her happy face, he couldn't help but smile.

When foreign envoys visited the year before last, Yan Zhaohe almost married off the eighth princess.

Li Yuluan said with tears that I am not afraid of getting married, I am just afraid that I will leave the palace and leave the emperor alone.

Born in the royal family, a bright sunflower can bloom in the cold harem, born in the morning sun, dazzling.

For Yan Zhaohe, the role of the eighth princess is no different from that of the fourth princess who married far away.Xun Zhui has no impression of the fourth princess, Li Yunjie, the only thing that impresses him is that Li Yunjie married far away from the palace, and she embroidered a red wedding dress by herself.He has an older sister, a younger sister, and older brothers who are covetous.

Li Yunjie is married far away, and only writes a letter every year, and the letter is also full of polite greetings, which makes Xunzhui feel that this sister has resentment towards him.

The strength of a country and the strength of an emperor can largely prevent princesses from marrying and getting married.And the four princesses married far away, and it happened to be the most turbulent moment in the court situation for two years after Xunzhui ascended the throne.At that time, he was only a child, and everything depended on Yan Zhaohe.

It seems that everyone remembers Xunzhui's incompetence when he ascended the throne when he was young, but no one remembers that Xunzhui was just a child who had just learned to write and was reading poetry and books.

Just like remembering that Xunzhui is incompetent, everyone selectively forgets that Yan Zhaohe was only a teenager when he led Xunzhui to shoulder the country.

Young Yan Zhaohe was surrounded by an ignorant child and a ferocious jackal in front of him. He was caught in the middle and married off the fourth princess helplessly.

If it was the time when the eighth princess was married, the fourth princess was married, as long as the fourth princess is unwilling, it is no big deal if she doesn't marry or not.

It's a pity that I was born at an untimely time.

After bathing, when the hair was completely dry, Xun Zhui found a hair band to tie the long hair tightly into a ponytail, and then fixed it with a hairpin.Change into dark clothes that are not easy to be spotted at night, and leave the palace at night.

The rain curtain is the best veil to hide your face in the dark night, Xun Zhui walked around the imperial army with an umbrella, passed by the imperial dining room and took a cucumber, and just finished eating after successfully leaving the palace.Xun Zhui threw away the inedible cucumber stalk, and secretly praised himself for his lightness kung fu.

He walked through the alley lightly, holding the saber fastened to his waist at all times.

According to what Chu Yang said, it is not a big deal for King Chong to send his concubines away. Who doesn't have many concubines sent to Zhuangzi?According to what Chu Yang said, King Chong was too cautious, and there must be fraud in it.

Chu Yang and Yan Zhaohe have the same problem, they are too suspicious, always feel that everyone in the world will kill him.

Xunzui heard the sound of wheels rolling in the distance, and hurriedly jumped onto the roof.Two people came from a distance, wearing bamboo hats, pushing a cart with difficulty.Both of them were bent over very low, and the things on the cart were piled up so high that it was impossible to see what they were covered by the straw mat.The two were out of breath and didn't forget to chat, so Xunzui leaned closer to listen.

"Today's is a bit much." The tall one said.

"There are only three, but they are too heavy." The shorter one said.

The tall man sneezed, "The one at the bottom has such a big belly, can it not be heavy?"

"I know that my mother-in-law is pregnant. She is as big as her, and she should give birth soon. It's a pity."

Xun Zhui frowned, clenched the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and slowly drew the sword half a point.

"Hurry up! If we meet a night watchman later, the two of us won't be able to eat!" The tall man urged.

The two pushed the cart and left quickly, and Xun Zhui lay on the roof for a long time, until the cuffs were soaked by the rain before regaining consciousness.

What those two people said just now, plus the weight of the cart, it is very likely that there is a dead person in that cart.

They mentioned "today" and "just", indicating that it was not the first time they came out to do it at night, and they were obviously used to it.

Xun Zhui jumped off the roof, took a shortcut and turned back to the palace. He stood at the door and asked the imperial army to call Chu Yang.Chu Yang came in a hurry, his expression was not good, and the subordinates around him looked cowardly, obviously they had just been scolded.

"Your Majesty!" Chu Yang rushed over and fell to his knees.

Xun Zhui knew that he had made a mistake first, and waved his hand resentfully to signal to Chu Yang that there is no need to salute.He reached out and asked Chu Yang for a pen and paper. Chu Yang had experience this time, so he asked his subordinates to bring a pen and paper when he came.

"I just saw someone pushing a car out of the city with what should be a dead body, hurry up and let the guards at the city gate stop that car." After thinking about it, Xun wrote, "But it's also possible that you didn't leave the city through the city gate. There are barren hills in the south of the city, you can send people there to look for them too."

Chu Yang said in a deep voice, "What cart? What does it look like?"

"The carts used by ordinary farmers to cultivate and transport heavy objects are very large, the ones as tall as a person." Xun Zhui simply drew an outline on the paper.

I don't know why, subconsciously Xun Zhui associates King Chong sending his concubine away with the cart he saw just now.What happened recently is too coincidental, and it seems that all the dead are women.

Chu Yang quickly sent a team of plainclothes imperial guards to leave. When the imperial guards left, they all had weapons and fireworks on their bodies. Once there was any change, setting off fireworks would immediately attract everyone's attention.

"Does Your Majesty have any more details?" Chu Yang asked.

Xunzui was silent, looking at Chu Yang with dark eyes and slowly wrote: "Has the commander noticed that everything is not quite right recently?"

"Yes." Chu Yang replied immediately.

"for example?"

"In the case of Yingge Xiaozhu, although I did not directly participate in the case, I have also tried several people. Those people seem to have no affection for Yubi's death and the corpse in the backyard. I mean that they are not surprised by this, and they also No one should have the empathy."

Xun Zhui did not expect that Chu Yang was surprised by this.

"Even if you don't talk about Yingge Xiaozhu, the impact of this incident in the capital is smaller than imagined."

Xun Zhui wrote on a new piece of paper: "All the dead are women."

Chu Yang was taken aback.

"The one who died on the pushcart just now was also a woman, and the one who died by Yingge Xiaozhu was also a woman, and so was the one who was sent away by King Chong." Xun Zhui didn't write any more, Chu Yang should understand when it comes to this.

"It's also a woman!" Chu Yang stepped back abruptly, knocking over the stool behind him.

"Does His Highness King Zhao know about these?" Chu Yang subconsciously asked.

Yan Zhaohe was probably the first to know, Xun Zhui thought, even he can think of this level, how could Yan Zhaohe not think of it?He saw it for the first time today, but those people had done it many times before he saw it. With Yan Zhaohe's ability, any trouble in the capital could not escape his eyes.

King Chong's concubine was not included in his calculations, but it did not affect Yan Zhaohe's judgment.

Xun Zhui thought more and more deeply, but he didn't realize that his body temperature was rising rapidly until he bit his lower lip to bleed.The pain made him calm down a little, and he gently rubbed his stiff cheeks and wrote, "Don't let anyone know about this, can you tell me what Yan Zhao and Nan Xia are going to do?"

"Don't His Majesty know what His Royal Highness Zhao is going to do?" Chu Yang answered speciously.

Xunzui let out a contemptuous laugh, with a frivolous and slow voice.

"Chu Yang, bullying the king is a serious crime."
