Coincidence

With this plan in mind, Fu Zhuo calmed down a lot and was no longer as anxious as before.

He briefly repeated Xiang Jiayan's story, and Huang Jingchun also agreed with Yan Xi's opinion, "The fifth prince who is most likely to ascend to the throne of Yandan at present is the fifth prince. I heard that he is also very popular with King Yandan. Besides, he He has a lot of military power in his hands, if the Grand Master can cooperate with him, he might help when something happens."

Fu Zhuo nodded, "Let me think about this matter."

Huang Jingchun said: "Since Qiu Lie came back, King Jing has been going to court every day. It seems that the emperor has untied his knot, and the grand master needs to be more careful."

"I used to think that King Jing was a cowardly persimmon, but now I see that he is not." Every time he saw him in the court hall for the people's livelihood, eloquently and sharply, he would have a headache.

Huang Jingchun said: "The lower official thinks, no matter what, we have to be prepared. If it's not possible, then..." He made a murderous gesture.

Fu Zhuo nodded, called Wei Shao, and ordered him to train a group of killers in case of emergency.

Huang Jingchun said again: "Teacher, don't worry, the officials will never betray you. The lives of my family are still in the hands of the grand master."

Fu Zhuo's face was finally no longer as dark as pot stickers.Even if Huang Jingchun had the heart of rebellion, he didn't have the guts, he couldn't disregard the lives of the whole family, could he?

After thinking about it, Fu Zhuo felt that he had to go to the palace to see Hu Qingqing again. Although he didn't like this niece, it seemed that she still had to rely on her to deal with Huang Wan.

The next day, Lin Rongchen ordered Zhao Xun to bring Li Lin's youngest son, Li Chen, into the secret room.

After wandering around the Ministry of Criminal Justice last time, Li Chen became much more honest, and no longer wanted to seek death or life. Maybe now he understands that death is more difficult than life.Some people just have to suffer a little to be honest.

Before they met, Lin Rongchen asked someone to wash him up and put on clean clothes. He looked much more agile than before, and he knew how to salute when he saw Lin Rongchen.

He really wanted to ask Zhao Xu what Li Chen had experienced in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

"I'm going to accept my concubine soon, and there will be a group of beautiful girls entering the palace."

Li Chen took a step back.I don't know if it's because of Lin Rongchen's tepid tone, or because he thinks of those harem concubines who want to skin him and eat him.He really had enough of staying in this birdcage-like palace.After hearing about the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, he just wanted to find an opportunity to avenge the murder of his father, and then escaped from the palace, hiding his name.

"Caomin knows how to do it." He is already familiar with this kind of thing.At first when he was taken away from the death row, he was still delighted at who would save him so kindly, but now it seems that it was just a scene directed and acted by Lin Rongchen himself.

Lin Rongchen said: "I don't want you to make any mistakes! By the way, I forgot to tell you one thing. Concubine Yi is pregnant, and the child will naturally be yours. If you obey me, he and the child will be safe. If you can't think about it for a while and insist on doing something...don't blame me for attacking women and children."

"Child?" Li Chen suddenly raised his head, "You, what you said is true?"

"Is it necessary for me to lie to you?" Lin Rongchen said disdainfully.

"You, you will let her have this child?"

He is the emperor, the king of a country, even if he doesn't like Hu Qingqing, he can't tolerate her giving birth to other people's children.In the future, the identity of this child will be a big issue, should he stay in the palace or send him out?What's more, the child's father is still on death row.Even if Li Chen has no brains, he can still think of these things.

Lin Rongchen said: "The child is innocent, I will send him out of the palace. Everything depends on his own fortune."

Apart from trusting Lin Rongchen, Li Chen seemed to have no other choice.

Yan Xi came out of the Grand Master's Mansion, wandered back and forth at the gate of the palace, saw He Shuyue, stepped forward and followed him, and only stopped when there was no one there.

"What is Master Yan looking for me for?"

Yan Xi feels deeply guilty about what happened to Xiang Jiayan, and even feels particularly sorry for He Shuyue.Because of him, both of He Shuyue's best friends suffered.

"It's nothing special, I just want to ask Sir Xiang when he will go to Yansai."

He Shuyue said: "I'll be leaving tomorrow." He hugged his chest, looked at Yan Xi, clearly knew everything, but pretended not to know anything.

Yan Xi said: "Lord He, don't worry, Master Xiang will be safe even if he arrives in Yansai."

"You came here to tell me that no one would want to harm him?" He Shuyue examined him, "Did you forget the grand master? Or did the grand master tell you to say this?"

Yan Xi shook his head, "Sir He, don't ask so many questions. You just need to know that the grand master will not kill you. For the rest, I am sorry that I have no comment."

He Shuyue looked at his back, frowned and thought.He originally thought that Yan Xi had already taken refuge in Fu Zhuo, but looking at it now, it seems... isn't it?

So what is he doing it for?Could it be Lin Rongchen?

A strange smile appeared on He Shuyue's lips, he followed Yan Xi with a stride, and held his arm, "Master Yan, let's have a drink together!"

"Have a drink? That's unnecessary... hey..." Yan Xi just refused, but He Shuyue had already pulled him to a restaurant aside.

Before he agreed to have a meal together, He Shuyue had already ordered a table of dishes, "Heard the good news today, I'm in a good mood, if Mr. Yan is in no hurry, you and I will have a light meal together, this is He's thank you."

Yan Xi couldn't refuse, but took the chopsticks. "Master He, you don't have to be so polite."

"Does Lord Yan often go to the Grand Master's Mansion recently? I heard that the Grand Master's Mansion is full of crabapple flowers, but is it true?"

"Yeah." When Yan Xi went to the Grand Master's Mansion, he only had a glimpse, so where did he look closely at the crabapple flowers?He was also afraid that He Shuyue would ask more questions, so he nodded indiscriminately and dealt with the matter.

He Shuyue asked again: "Does Lord Yan often go to the Hall of Peace recently?"

"No." Yan Xi buried her head in her meal and didn't want to talk to him.He felt that He Shuyue was particularly keen on these gossips, and she was even scarier than those gossiping women on the street.

While the two were talking, a very young gentleman came in from the store, carrying a Jiaoweiqin, and sat down on the table opposite them.

As soon as he entered the door, Yan Xi noticed that He Shuyue's face had changed, and even her body became very stiff.

He stared at the man with a complicated expression.Yan Xi followed to look over, but when he saw that person looking in this direction, he was also shocked, there was surprise in his eyes, but also forbearance... It was mixed.Immediately, the man lowered his head, said a few words to Xiao Er, then drank tea by himself, and never looked this way again.

"Master He knows him?"

He Shuyue nodded when the man heard this, "Old friend."

Yan Xi turned around, "Young Master, since you know Mr. He, why don't you have a light meal together?"

He Shuyue regretted why he brought Yan Xi to dinner.

"No need." The young master refused coldly.

He Shuyue didn't speak.

The man seemed suddenly angry, and put down the tea bowl in his hand heavily, "Xiao Er, don't eat!"

The waiter from the shop ran over, wondering: "My lord, the dishes are still being cooked, so I'm afraid I can't refund you!"

"How much should I pay you, I will pay you every penny!" The man's gaze skipped He Shuyue, paused on Yan Xi for a few seconds, then lowered his head, paid the money, carried the piano on his back, and left hotel.

He Shuyue was stunned for a while, until the figure of the man disappeared at the door, he suddenly came back to his senses, and threw a silver coin by the table, "Master Yan, you eat by yourself, I have something to do, let's go first... "Before I finished speaking, people were no longer visible.

Yan Xi looked at the table full of dishes and frowned.Worried about how to eat so much, and by coincidence, Yu Junyuan brought Yu Ziyuan in.

Seeing him, Yu Ziyuan exclaimed: "Brother Yunxin! What a coincidence! You are here too!"

Yan Xi covered her face, "Well, it's a coincidence."

Yu Ziyuan opened the stool and sat down, "Brother Yunxin, who are you eating with?"

Yan Xi said: "It's convenient for him to go, and he'll be right back." If he didn't say to be with someone, I'm afraid Yu Ziyuan would soon be sharing a table.

"Oh!" Yu Ziyuan pouted, and reluctantly moved to another table, the two of them ordered food, and when it was time to eat, they didn't see the person who Yan Xi said was convenient came back.Yu Ziyuan came over with a bowl, "Brother Yunxin, did that person leave? Why don't I eat with you! There are many people, and the food tastes better, doesn't my brother say?"

Yu Junyuan nodded dully, then shook his head again, "Zi Yuan, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for Brother Yun Xin, so don't force others to make things difficult for you."

"What's the inconvenience?" Yu Ziyuan sat opposite Yan Xi, looking at him with big eyes flickering, "Is it right, brother Yunxin?"

Yan Xi had a toothache, "Well, sit down."

Upon hearing this, Yu Junyuan had a surprised smile on his face, "This will disturb Brother Yunxin."

Since the last time the three of them met at Chang Xiao's house, Yan Xi basically stopped talking to him in the Hanlin Academy, and even kept avoiding him.Especially when Chang Xiao left, he felt lonely all by himself. He wanted to talk to Yan Xi, but he didn't know how to speak, and he was even more afraid that Yan Xi would reject him.

Seeing Yu Ziyuan messing around, he actually hoped to take this opportunity to reconcile with Yan Xi.

The three of them ate a meal with different thoughts, and went home together with different thoughts.Yu Junyuan was a little timid and didn't know how to talk to Yan Xi.And Yan Xi was thinking about Fu Zhuo, so he had no time to talk to him at all.

As for Yu Ziyuan, she naturally thought of what happened that night when Yan Xi got drunk, and wondered who was in the yard?Did you tell Yan Xi about the situation at that time? The last time she moved, Yan Xi's attitude towards her was still the same as before. Thinking about it, he probably didn't know.

"Brother Yunxin, can we sit at your house?" Yu Ziyuan said.

"No." Yan Xi refused very straightforwardly.

"But last time I helped you move, I lost my handkerchief, I want to look for it." Yu Ziyuan said aggrievedly.

Yu Junyuan took her hand secretly, "Little sister, let's go back! Don't disturb Yunxin."

"Brother Yunxin is such a nice person, why would he be afraid of trouble and not let me find a handkerchief? Besides, it took my mother a long time to embroider that handkerchief!"

Hearing what she said, Yan Xi was too embarrassed to refuse, after all, it seemed inappropriate for someone to help him move, and turn his back on him.

The three walked to the door together, Yan Xi pushed the door open and was stunned.

Standing under the crabapple tree in the courtyard is a man with his hands behind his back and a slender figure.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he turned his head, smiled gently like a moonlight, and disappeared very quickly after seeing the person coming.

Yan Xi secretly said, he is dead.
