I heard that Qinghe Concubine and the others were going to return to court, and they were going to take the charred corpse on Qianye Hill with them.

At first, no one believed that the charred corpse was the emperor. Except for the burnt dragon robe and the twelve-pronged crown, there was no identifying feature on his body.It is truly a miracle that a person can be burnt like this.

The prince is still missing, this "miracle" adds a suspenseful color that makes people think about it.After preliminary verification, the emperor's death condition and cause of death were very strange. For a moment, everyone couldn't tell whether it was "suspense" or "mystery".

The more powerful ministers insisted on going through multiple verifications before deciding whether to declare the emperor's death.After all, since ancient times, emperors have died in all kinds of strange ways, such as horse wind and willow diseases, but no emperor has died like this.The way the emperor died was more horrible and embarrassing.So everyone would rather believe that this piece of charred meat was not the emperor, but just a smoke bomb thrown by the gangsters.

A group of people probably stayed in Guanzhou for about ten days.They announced to the prefect of Guanzhou that the emperor was missing, and announced to the outside world that the emperor was seriously ill.

In a short period of time, they used many methods to test whether the corpse was the emperor, including asking the third prince to come and test the relatives.The blood of the third prince had seeped into the bones of the charred corpse, and Concubine Qinghe couldn't wait to start crying, like who would cry before her.After that, she hurried back to the imperial court to hold the national funeral, but in her heart she really wanted to let the third prince ascend the throne as soon as possible.

But the old minister who had the right to speak refused to act hastily, and listed a lot of reasons why he needed to stay in Guanzhou.Why find the murderer, find the prince, why not conclude that this piece of meat is the emperor, maybe this piece of meat is the prince, and the real emperor has been taken somewhere.

They refused to leave, so a group of guards had to search in Guanzhou day and night. While the prefect of Guanzhou cooperated with them in investigating the case, he had to strictly discipline himself and catch criminals every day.If more black households are caught, the performance of the household department will increase, the transaction volume will decrease, and the performance of the industrial department will drop.Makes everyone very tired.

The third prince was anxious.None of the troops sent by Qing Hefei found out the whereabouts of the prince.He was afraid that the prince would learn the news of the emperor's death, so he rushed back to the capital to gather Shen Pinglu and other ministers to support him as the throne.

Concubine Qinghe was also anxious, but not as obvious as the third prince.Her performance is more due to hair loss and imbalance of Guishui.She secretly summoned Tian Feng several times, and asked Tian Feng to find a way to allow the third prince to return to Beijing immediately to ascend the throne.

Originally, she could sneak back to Beijing with the third prince, but she didn't want people to feel that she was too impatient, so that her mourning scene would be for nothing.

Tian Feng said that there could have been a solution to this matter, but that stubborn old minister repeatedly opposed them, and he wanted to argue with them anyway, and he would not give up until he found the prince back and found out the mystery of the emperor's death .He said that he was very distressed, and took the opportunity to discuss the price with Concubine Qing He.

If the third prince ascends the throne, he will be the regent.But Qing and Concubine wanted to listen to the government behind the curtain, so the two were at a stalemate.

Both the left and the right don't give the third prince human rights.

In order to relieve the urgent need, Concubine Qinghe could only pretend to flatter her and agree to Tian Feng's conditions temporarily.

The next day, Tian Feng asked the old minister to go fishing, took a stone and beat him to death.

After Lan Jiansu heard about this, she felt that it was outrageous.Who goes fishing without a helmet?

Lan Jiansu came back from outside with the alms bowl in hand, and took off the bamboo hat and the gray cloth covering his head.There were three or four big steamed buns in the alms bowl, which he got when he pretended to be a monk to inquire about news on the street.

The prince immediately stood up from his seat, rarely looking at the stone first: "What's the matter?"

Lan Jiansu put the bowl on the table and asked first, "Is anyone here this morning?"

Li Xingxi, who was standing on the left side, turned his head towards the window and said, "People from the government have been here a few times, and we hid outside the window to avoid it."

Lan Jiansu nodded and said, "Soon there will be no need to hide."

The prince asked, "Why do you say that?"

Lan Jiansu fanned the sweat off his face with a bamboo hat, and went to open the window to breathe, "I guessed right. Concubine Qinghe is really in a hurry to take the third prince back to inherit the throne. They plan to announce that the emperor was killed by a The martial arts devil killed you, and you were also kidnapped by that martial arts devil."

The prince clenched his teeth tightly, and pounded his fist on the table: "I knew it! Hmph, what ability did Lan Wujue rely on to ascend to the throne? His father never made any will to pass on to him before his death. He relied on What? Based on what!"

Lan Jiansu said: "The emperor didn't make any will before his death, and the minister who entrusted the imperial edict before him was also murdered by Tian Feng. In this way, even if there are ministers in the palace who keep the imperial edict, they will be purged." The concubine tried her best to destroy it. And now the bargaining chip in Qinghe concubine's hand is the jade seal and military order temporarily entrusted to her by the emperor earlier."

"What?" The prince's eyelids twitched, and he asked, "You said that the jade seal and the military order are in the hands of Concubine Qing?...Aren't those two things in the hands of Prime Minister Shen?"

Lan Jiansu shook his head and said, "Today I secretly followed Concubine Qing's spies and overheard their conversation. The jade seal and military orders that the emperor handed over to Shen Pinglu in court were fake, while the ones that were given to Concubine Qinghe were real. And Concubine Qing He brought these two bargaining chips with her when she left the palace this time, just to prepare for this moment."

The emperor is very thoughtful, it is indeed impossible to temporarily hand over the government affairs to Shen Pinglu, and at the same time hand over the real jade seal and military orders to him.It's just that he didn't expect that the person he entrusted was also a fox with evil intentions.

If Dafeng was handed over to the third prince, it would be over if it fell into the hands of Tian Feng, and it would be over if it fell into the hands of the evil concubine Qinghe.

Lan Jiansu stared at the floating clouds in the blue sky outside the window. They looked like calm clouds, but when the wind blew, they would stir up and swim.

Lan Jiansu said: We can't wait any longer, as soon as they leave tomorrow, we will rush to Zhenyou immediately. "

The prince nodded, "Yes".His eyelashes drooped, and the icy coldness of determination melted in his eyes. When he raised his eyes again, his eyes were soft, and he whispered: "Jian Su, thank you."

"What is there to thank? We are brothers whose blood dissolves in water."

The crown prince raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips, and asked, "Then Wu Jue and you are also brothers whose blood dissolves in water?"

"Maybe..." Lan Jiansu thought for a while and said, "Maybe I'm not that close to him."

The prince's eyes were half-closed, he walked to the window, his face was caressed by the wind: "If I win this time and I become the emperor, what do you think I should do with Wu Jue? What will happen to you if I kill him?" ?”

Lan Jiansu looked at the prince and said, "Wu Jue is too young to do so many stupid things. If you win this battle, the prince, I don't ask you to treat him kindly. I only hope that you will be a brother. Spare his life."

The prince said nothing for a long time, "Okay, I will listen to you."

At night, the cold wind is miserable.The autumn colors in Guanzhou are very strong. Even at night, the color of red maple covers the dark color of the whole city, forming a deep red.Fengying swayed in the night, like groups of dancing foreign women.The artistic conception was originally very good, but Lan Jiansu immediately felt that it was like pieces of pork belly flaunting to him. The good artistic conception was ruined, and he was a little hungry instead.

Lan Jiansu pulled down the robe she was wearing, and the puppet carving in her hand was only half completed.He didn't know who it was engraved on.It was just an itch, so I grabbed a piece of wood and started carving.

He sat on the roof, looked at the moon, carved wood, and thought about things.

When he was distracted, Li Xingxi flew up to the roof and sat lightly beside him: "Brother Lan, are you still asleep?"

"Can't sleep." Lan Jiansu glanced at him and pulled a corner of his robe, "Is it cold?"

Li Xingxi originally wanted to say "it's not cold", but when he saw Lan Jiansu pull open his robe, he leaned against him without thinking and hid in his robe.

I don't know if Su Yin worried about them returning to Zhen You.

Lan Jiansu was thinking about this question again.A few days ago, when the government was fully committed to looking for the prince, the control of internal and external transportation was slightly relaxed. He successfully sent a letter out, but he has not waited for a reply until now.I think it should be on the way to Zhenyou.

"Hey, who is this villain engraving?" Li Xingxi leaned against Lan Jiansu's body, and nodded the wooden figure's small head.

The wooden man has no facial features, and he can't tell who it is.

Lan Jiansu said: "I don't know, I don't want to carve anyone."

Li Xingxi said, "What about me right now?"

Lan Jiansu looked at his face, and stretched out her palms to make a comparison in front of his face.Suddenly, he grabbed his chin again.

With his chin pinched, Li Xingxi asked, "...what's wrong?"

Lan Jiansu said, "I'm looking at how to engrave your face."

Li Xingxi smiled and said, "Brother Lan, do you really want to engrave me?"

Lan Jiansu nodded: "Yeah." Slowly let go of his hand, looked at his face from time to time, and carved his facial features.

Li Xingxi was a little shy, and whispered: "I am very happy... I still remember that on my 16th birthday, my father asked an artist to paint my portrait. My father asked the artist curiously, "Look at my son's appearance." The painter said, "Your son's appearance is mediocre and not outstanding. If you want to judge the son's list in the future, you may not be satisfied. You should study books." Since then, I always feel that I was not born well. So I have always envied Big Brother Lan, Big Brother Lan is so good-looking."

"The painter is talking nonsense." Lan Jiansu blew off the sawdust on the wooden figurine, and there was a rough outline of Li Xingxi on the wooden section, "You are very good-looking, and you are a very outstanding person. Others don't understand because their vision is narrow. "

If one were to compare with the handsome men on the young master's list, Li Xingxi was indeed not as handsome or glamorous as them.But Li Xingxi looks fresh and clean, with just the right eyebrows, eyes, mouth, nose and mouth, which makes people look very comfortable.He is no worse than those people.

Li Xingxi glanced at Lan Jiansu with bright eyes, and leaned his forehead on his shoulder, as if coquettishly: "As long as Brother Lan doesn't hate it, that's enough, and I don't care what others think."

Lan Jiansu smiled lightly, raised his face and said, "Okay, I still have to watch you."

After Li Xingxi raised his face, a layer of heat flew up from his cheeks, making Lan Jiansu stare like a hole.

"Why is your face so red? Did you catch a cold?" Lan Jiansu frowned worriedly, and touched his forehead with the back of her hand.

"No, I..." Li Xingxi was embarrassed to speak.

Lan Jiansu thought she understood, and put the back of her hand off his forehead.

The faces of the two were not far away, and they kissed together without knowing who kissed the other first.If Li Xingxi was still a little green in the kiss at Xibeiguan, this time he was much more mature.

Yuehan, the two cuddled together, the heat they gave off seemed very precious, as if they both wanted to claim that heat.

It was difficult to move on the roof, but there seemed to be no time to go down now.

"Sit on me..." Lan Jiansu said.He put his arms around Li Xingxi's waist and let him sit on him.
