Chapter 25
Who is the eldest son?
There are too many people in the world who can be called "Elder Prince". The first boy in a prince's mansion, or the first elegant son of a wealthy family, can all be called "Elder Prince" by the world.
Yin Xiaokuang was turned over, his forehead was dripping with blood, his eyes were empty looking at Qi Yusheng who was holding him above his head, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, tremblingly said,
"I really...don't dare..."
passed out.
Qi and Sheng also couldn't care about who the "big son" Yin Xiaokuang was talking about, why Yin Xiaokuang went crazy again, and all kinds of things that Yin Xiaokuang made him angry.When he saw Yin Xiaokuang huddled in his arms without a trace of anger, the string in his heart snapped again, "Crack!", "Doctor Xuan!"
The Imperial Hospital is almost becoming the royal hospital of Cheng En Palace. Everyone in it knows that His Highness the Fourth Highness of Cheng En Palace has an unconscious pet. His body is rotten to scum, and he challenges His Highness's bottom line every day. Let His Highness take action Ruthless, if you hurt your body, let the imperial doctor treat it.
Qi and Sheng originally intended for Qin Xiao to come over, but the envoy of Qin Yuan was on a vacation to visit his relatives, so they had to invite other imperial physicians to hang Yin Xiaokuang.But in the palace, apart from the Cheng En Hall, it is rumored that the Fourth Highness raises a little girl in the palace. On the way with the new Imperial Physician, the Hall Commander specially told the Imperial Physician to meet Young Master Yi when he arrived at the Cheng En Hall. Do not publicize!
The Imperial Physician was also curious about why he couldn't make an announcement. Everyone in the palace knew about His Royal Highness raising pets, and everyone had heard that the pets were disobedient. Isn't it just a heart-piercing master?What can't be said!
When they arrived at Cheng'en Hall, the imperial physician saw that Yin Xiaokuang turned out to be a man with a handle, and was stunned on the spot.
grass!This, this, this!His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince actually raised a boy? !
Today's emperor Qi Ce hates Duanxiu so much, everyone in the world knows why there are so many wine and teahouses in Ling'an City, but in terms of providing for boys, only the Zuixianfang family is in the open?Except for Boss Yin, no one dared to act like a gigolo under Qi Ce's nose!
Qi and Sheng are princes!Zize's own son!
If His Majesty finds out that his most outstanding and precious son is actually...
The imperial doctor knelt down on the spot, unable to grasp the medicine box firmly. He looked at Qi Yusheng who was sitting by the bed guarding Yin Xiaokuang, panicked, felt that he might have left the door of the ward, his eyes were like saying goodbye to his head up!
With Qi Yusheng's previous style of doing things, he would directly gouge out the eyes of someone who had seen him intimately. The imperial doctor was thinking about how to survive without eyes, but he heard Qi Yusheng in front of him suddenly speak eagerly,
"Quick! Show him first!"
The imperial doctor wailed, "How can I live without my eyes!" Qi Yucheng was stunned for a long time, and the commander-in-chief whispered in Qi Yusheng's ear, "Your Highness, you have killed many people who snooped on your secrets before."
"Young master Yin, he is a man."
Qi and Sheng understood, waved their sleeves,
"This king will not kill you,"
"Nor gouging out your eyes."
"But," he stood up and walked in front of the imperial physician, speaking condescendingly,
"People on the bed, you have to do your best!"
The imperial physician kowtowed again and again,
"Sir, definitely!"
Some things may really be that I have committed a lot of crimes in the past, and Feng Shui has taken turns, and in the end all the bad results have fallen on my head.Before, Qi Yucheng never felt that there was anything wrong with killing a person or a group of people. As long as it was not good for him, they all beheaded, the effect was good and the speed was fast. He had no heart, so naturally he couldn't feel the temperature of the blood.
But now it's different.
For a Yin Xiaokuang...
He is about to overthrow all the principles he has established in the past 26 years!
Qi and Sheng sat in the lobby of Shuhua Palace, which is another residence of Qi and Sheng in the palace, where they usually meet local ministers instead of Cheng'en Palace, where all the daily necessities are available, Dining room, tea room, living pavilion are all matched one by one.
Now that the Cheng'en Hall was burned, they could just live here for a while.
Yin Xiaokuang was lying in the Nuan Pavilion inside, and Qi and Sheng were sitting in the lobby outside the Nuan Pavilion. Time passed by, and it was already midnight. The imperial physician directed the doctors to come in and out. A blue circle gradually appeared under the eyelids.
He just opened his eyes and watched all night.
The next day, when the Commander-in-Chief stepped into the Shuhua Hall again, he saw Qi Yucheng sitting in the same spot where he had left last night with disheveled clothes, and his face was not very good.The Commander-in-Chief of the Palace remembered that Qi and Sheng seemed to have fainted in the prison of the Ministry of Justice not long ago due to overwork, and suddenly felt a little distressed, and asked Qi and Sheng, "Your Highness, you should go back and have a rest first, here I will guard you for you." yes."
Qi and Sheng moved their stiff necks, raised their hands,
"Need not."
The stubble protruding slightly on the chin is very eye-catching.
The Commander-in-Chief still insisted on asking Qi and Sheng to rest. He really felt sorry for his Highness, regardless of etiquette and disobedience.Qi Yucheng was annoyed, and almost turned against the commander-in-chief.
"Your Highness!" At this moment, the door of the Nuan Pavilion was opened, and the imperial doctor who was treating Yin Xiaokuang hurried over, knelt on the ground,
"Yi Xiao...Miss Yi, wake up!"
Qi and Cheng flicked their sleeves and walked towards the Nuan Pavilion.
Yin Xiaokuang was lying on the bed, wearing only a spacious white undergarment, which was completely/naked, with intricate white cloth wrapped one by one.
The two slender legs were hung in mid-air by strong cloth strips, and the movements were quite embarrassing.
As soon as Qi and Sheng entered the Nuan Pavilion, they saw Yin Xiaokuang lying on the soft couch in a posture about to be fucked frontally, his eyes were wide open, the corners of his eyes were red, and there were a bunch of red bruises on his face.
Why, such humiliation?
Qi and Sheng stood by the door for a long time, and the rest of the people withdrew one after another. They were the only two left in the Nuan Pavilion of Shuhua Palace. Now, he is lying here with his legs crossed and his lower body wide open, allowing outsiders to see him at a glance.
Yes, isn't all of this caused by oneself?
That night, I couldn't control my drinking, and I personally fucked/made people like this.
He was so badly injured...
And then what happened?
I was locked in a small black room by myself again, and I was tortured like this by myself again!
Qi Yusheng raised his hand and punched the door frame hard.
When Yin Xiaokuang heard the voice, he tilted his head with great difficulty. Seeing that it was Qi Yusheng, he suddenly showed a smirk that Qi Yusheng was very familiar with.
"Your Highness...the chrysanthemum/flower, it hurts..."
Qi Yusheng's heart felt like someone had stabbed him with a knife, and it hurt so badly.Yesterday Yin Xiaokuang went crazy in the small black room, and the names he yelled made Qi and Cheng think all night.Those madness did not seem to be caused simply because of his forced marriage, but they seemed to have been deposited in this small body for many years.
Subconsciously I am afraid of the small dark room, I am subconsciously afraid of someone, I am subconsciously avoiding by torturing my body.
Qi and Sheng combined Yin Xiaokuang's famous flirtatiousness and came to a conclusion that made him sad to death. He went forward, lifted his robe and sat on the side of the bed, stretching out his hand.
Yin Xiaokuang shrank his head in almost subconsciously.
But soon, he realized it again, and foolishly pasted it on Qi Yusheng's palm.
Qi Yusheng's eyes were a little red, and he gently touched Yin Xiaokuang's swollen face, his voice trembling.
"Your Highness... the palm of your hand is so warm..."
Qi and Sheng asked Yin Xiaokuang,
"Xiao Kuang, you... have been treated badly before, right?"
The air suddenly condensed.
Lying on the bed, the little light in Yin Xiaokuang's eyes instantly went out, and the rogue stars in the waves of the day also ended. His pupils became pitch black, and there seemed to be an endless abyss inside.
This kind of Yin Xiaokuang made Qi Yusheng see again the person who was about to go crazy and hit the wall in the small black room that day.
Qi Yusheng just wanted to speak and avoid this topic, he thought it should be, Yin Xiaokuang must have suffered inhumane violence a long time ago, and it may not be once or twice.The shadow of childhood will cause huge trauma, and only in the future will you use wandering/swinging to cover up your scars.
Qi Yusheng himself knows this very well. When his elder brother Qi Yuji was killed and set fire to the entire Linghe army camp, when he followed Qi Ce to claim the body, he saw the burnt ashes of his elder brother beyond recognition The residue really cast a huge shadow on the hearts of young Qi and Sheng!
Sometimes Qi and Sheng feel that they have become cruel and decisive, which has a lot to do with Ling He's rebellion!
Yin Xiaokuang's long eyelashes trembled slightly.
"Your Highness..."
"What are you talking about..."
With a blink of his eyes, he returned to his silly look, but his hanging legs were trembling, as if he was trying to control his emotions.
Qi Yucheng took a deep breath, and touched Yin Xiaokuang's forehead in the most gentle tone he could, "In the future...you won't be allowed to encounter those things again."
A trace of confusion flashed across Yin Xiaokuang's eyes.
Qi and Sheng continued,
"I'm sorry, I was the one who went my own way before... I don't know your past, I don't know the injuries you have suffered..."
"Because I like you so much, I wanted you to marry me, but ignored your feelings..."
Yin Xiaokuang silently listened to Qi Yusheng's confession.
Qi and Sheng rolled their eyes over the past, trying not to be too jerky in their tone, "Suffering that kind of crime in childhood is indeed a fear of the relationship between people. I'm sorry, I, I was talking to the Ministry of Criminal Justice that night. I don’t know why I can’t control myself...Xiao Kuang, if you don’t want to forgive me, then don’t forgive me. I will treat you well. .”
"If you don't want to marry, then don't marry... You can continue to live in Cheng'en Hall after it is repaired. But... whether you marry or not, you must be in front of my eyes."
"I... will protect you."
"lifetime."
If you listen to too much love talk, you are the boss. Yin Xiaokuang quietly listened to what Qi and Sheng said after putting down their airs. If you want to change someone, you can just change it to the daughter of a rich and powerful family in Ling'an City. Hearing the affectionate words of His Highness the Fourth Prince Confessions, you must be so beautiful in your heart that you can pinch someone.
However, he is not the daughter of a powerful and wealthy family, he is Yin Xiaokuang, the most promiscuous/slutty prostitute in Ling'an, who is rumored to be able to be fucked by opening his legs!
"Your Highness... Yin Xiaokuang suddenly grinned, "I am not willing to marry..."
Qi and Sheng froze in place.
Mingming had previously said that he wanted to be free and not be bound by marriage, but after only two days, he suddenly wanted to marry again.
Qi Yusheng asked Yin Xiaokuang not to force him.
Yin Xiaokuang's eyes turned red all of a sudden, he seemed to have thought of something very bad, his little face drooped, and he said with sobs, "I don't want to marry, and I don't dislike Your Highness...Before, it was indeed because I have been hurt in the past, so I dare not treat others sincerely. I am afraid, I am afraid that His Highness will hate me in the future, because I used to be so..."
Qi Yucheng didn't expect Yin Xiaokuang to confess his heart out of the blue, as if he had been poured honey, and the sweetness blossomed all of a sudden.But this honey is mixed with ice balls, which is sweet and painful.All of a sudden, his heart ached to death, it turned out that under Yin Xiaokuang's corrupt/rotten appearance, buried deeply was a punctured and fragmented heart.Qi and Sheng lifted Yin Xiaokuang up like a treasure and held them in their arms, swearing through gritted teeth, "Why, I'm tired of you...I don't care about the things in the past! Don't worry, from now on in your life There will only be happiness, and Qi and Sheng swear on our lives that we will do our best to keep you happy for the rest of your life!"
This oath is so nice, Yin Xiaokuang smiled happily, tears were still streaming, looking quite strange.
Qi Yusheng asked Yin Xiaokuang what he wanted, and he would definitely satisfy it!Yin Xiaokuang's body began to ache again, Qi Yusheng hurriedly put him back on the bed, Yin Xiaokuang grinned in pain, and did not forget to answer Qi Yusheng's question.
"There is no request..."
"Your Highness is willing to marry someone with a low status like me...Xiao Kuang is already very happy..."
"that is……"
Qi Yusheng asked Yin Xiaokuang, tell me!
Yin Xiaokuang raised his head, seemingly hesitating for a moment.
Qi Yucheng told him not to be afraid, to speak out, and he would give whatever he wanted. If he didn't want to be a daughter, Qi Yusheng would go and tell the world right now that his fourth prince married a man!
Yin Xiaokuang repeatedly said no, no, no need for so many things!Your Majesty hates broken sleeves, and you must not embarrass Your Majesty!It took him quite a while before he asked Qi Yusheng in a very small and humble tone, "Can you...don't go back to Cheng'en Hall..."
Qi and Sheng asked, where do you want to live?
Yin Xiaokuang bit his lip and pointed to the door of Nuan Pavilion in Shuhua Palace.
"I like Shuhua Palace, the place is small and warm."
Of course, Qi and Sheng couldn't be troubled by a small residence!Qi and Sheng agreed immediately, and immediately sent someone to announce to the outside world-in the future, they will discuss matters with His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and all of them will go to Cheng'en Palace!
Shuhua Palace, no outsiders are allowed in!
Yin Xiaokuang grinned, his lower body hurt again, his face turned pale and he said that he was so sleepy and wanted to sleep.
Qi Yusheng said that you should go to sleep, I will watch you here.
At this moment, a plea for orders came from outside the gate of Shuhua Hall, Qi and Sheng asked what was the matter, and the palace marshal outside reported respectfully, "Your Highness, the restorer said that he has something important to discuss with His Highness."
Qi Yusheng's expressions suddenly changed, and they stood up.
"Then you... sleep peacefully here." He stretched out his hand and covered Yin Xiaokuang's stomach with a quilt, "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be right back."
Yin Xiaokuang closed his eyes obediently, Qi Yucheng looked at him again, and when he heard his breathing gradually stabilized, he turned and left.
The moment the gate of Shuhua Palace was closed, Yin Xiaokuang who was lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and pulled his legs out of the cloth covers. The moment his buttocks landed on the bed, he felt as if someone used a drill to drill a wooden stick from his place into his body, and the pain exploded. I don't know if it is bleeding again.Yin Xiaokuang rolled over and got out of bed, almost crawling to move forward.
Opposite the bed was a mahogany table, and behind it was a boarded wall.The wooden planks seem to be quite old, and the wood used is red nanmu, which was still popular in the Yin Dynasty more than 50 years ago.
Red nanmu became extinct due to deforestation in the last years of the Yin Dynasty, so it was impossible for this kind of wood to appear after the founding of Daji.That's right, the Shuhua Palace is exactly the palace left by the Yin Dynasty!
At the turn of the old and new dynasties, half of the palaces in Ling'an City were remodeled, like the halls where the emperor's princes and concubines lived; while the Jinluan Palace and the Shuhua Palace, which were specially used for office work, were preserved.Not only because the construction of these halls took longer than the daily life, and many of the materials used have become antiques, but also because most of these halls contain ancient cultural relics handed down from previous dynasties.
The Shuhua Palace was built in the Yin Dynasty, and many valuable objects were stored in it. After the establishment of the New Dynasty, all the treasured cultural relics were taken out, and the main hall returned to Qi and Sheng, but the layout of the treasures inside has not changed.
Qi and Sheng also took the Shuhua Palace and put a lot of important things.
These hidden treasure compartments containing the most precious things of His Highness the Fourth Prince are hidden in the checkered stone wall behind the wooden plank!
Yin Xiaokuang peeled back some of the curtains, and seeing that Qi and Sheng had already left the Shuhua Hall, he turned around and leaned against the wall, feeling for the switch on the wooden board.
Swish—the light green wall panels faded to the sides.
A large wall of gray checkered stones comes into view!
These squares look like storage cabinets, with intricate patterns engraved on them. Those who know hidden grids will understand that such a cabinet with irregular patterns must have an opening mechanism!
How could a little male prostitute know about the royal family's organs?When the Yin Dynasty cast this kind of hidden stone compartment, it hired the world's top foundry master!Later, when Qi Ce destroyed the Yin Dynasty and usurped the throne, it took a lot of effort to recruit the world's most elite secret deciphering masters, and only then did he find the way to open the secret compartment!
Yin Xiaokuang untied the white cloth wrapped around his arm, and the strips of cloth slipped from his fingertips, and bloodstains still faintly ooze from the bitten fingers that had already been medicated.Regardless of the pain, he put his hands on the squares of the dark grid, stroking the lines on the grid as if he was looking at an old friend.
The dark red blood wiped across the depressions of those lines.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
Wherever the fingertip touched, all the dark spaces miraculously bounced off!
He groped and searched carefully one by one, his lower body began to bleed again due to the activity, seeping into the white cloth, Yin Xiaokuang gritted his teeth, and broke out in a cold sweat from the pain all over his body.
I don't know how long it has passed, but he suddenly pulled out a half-shaped jade pendant from a small hidden compartment at the bottom. , the dents where the paint has fallen off can vaguely see the handwriting carved with small seal characters.
Yin Xiaokuang's breath was stagnant, and with trembling hands, he took off the white jade hairpin that had been stuck in his head from the beginning to the end, opened the top of the jade hairpin, and rolled out a jade pendant that was only in half.
The two jade pendants are just spliced together, and the words on them are connected together
Qi and Ji.
……
……
slam
There was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps from the hall outside the Nuan Pavilion, Yin Xiaokuang was startled, he quickly tore off the jade pendant, and stuffed it back into the secret compartment.He hurriedly restored the wall to its original state, and struggled to climb back. As soon as he got to the bed, he heard the door of the warm pavilion being carefully pushed open.
"Xiao Kuang?!"
Qi and Sheng shouted frantically.
Yin Xiaokuang said that he just wanted to drink saliva, his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't shout. Qi Yusheng was annoyed at his carelessness, and after feeding Yin Xiaokuang thoughtfully, he helped Yin Xiaokuang back to the bed, tied his legs again, and gave Yin Xiaokuang another hug. He bound the wound.
"I'll come back to get something." Qi Yusheng bowed his head and kissed Yin Xiaokuang's forehead, "Go on to sleep, call me if you need anything, I'll be outside in the lobby."
Yin Xiaokuang said yes softly, Qi Yucheng rubbed his hair, and suddenly found that the hairpin on the jade crown that had been used to fix the hair was missing.He asked Yin Xiaokuang if the hairpin fell off?Yin Xiaokuang opened his eyes and said weakly, "I tripped when I got out of bed just now, as if I fell on the ground."
Qi Yucheng turned his head to look at the ground, and it really fell on the ground, but the position was still a certain distance from the place where Yin Xiaokuang climbed on the bed. The ring was opened, and he tapped it smoothly, and gently inserted it back on the top of Yin Xiaokuang's head, "Go to sleep."
Qi Yucheng got up, went to the opposite desk to look through, took out a piece of paper that was pressed at the bottom, and lifted his legs to leave the Nuan Pavilion.
Yin Xiaokuang loosened his tightly clenched hands, dripping with sweat.He gasped for breath, his heart was pounding, he turned his head, glanced at the half of the jade pendant that he kicked to the bottom of the vase shelf in an emergency, and groped and crawled over.
Qi and Sheng were sitting in the main hall of Shuhua Hall, with a picture in front of them, it was a simple family letter, written on letter paper.The letter paper should have been old for a certain period of time, and the corners and corners have already been cracked.
The pen and ink on the paper has also faded a little.
"This is...?" The restorer standing by the side of the table pointed to the letter paper and asked Qi Yucheng, "The remains of His Royal Highness?"
Qi Yucheng looked down at the letter, nodded slowly,
"Yes,"
"It's a family letter left by Brother Huang when he was young."
The restorer asked Qi and Sheng if they could pick it up to have a look, Qi and Sheng hummed, and the restorer carefully picked up the letter paper, fearing that it might be crushed.
He took the uneven glass sheet and enlarged the words on the paper bit by bit.
Qi and Cheng frowned into the word "Chuan", and turned their heads to look at the center of the table. Apart from the letter paper, there was also a half-burnt ink painting on the table.
That's right, it was the one he asked the restorer to restore with all his strength - the portrait of the eldest prince Qi and Ji before his death.
The painting has been burnt and cannot be repaired, and the restorer has really tried his best, but it is a pity that the painting is so old, the paper has been weathered to a little fragile, and last time Yin Xiaokuang smashed red ink on it, Cleaning already made the painting even weaker.
Now that it has been burned by a raging fire, how can it be repaired!
but!
Qi and Sheng looked at the top of the painting, stretched out their hands, and pulled out a piece of folded paper pressed against the edge of the painting bit by bit.
Spread out almost slightly and carefully.
It was a letter of agreement with a border sewn with gold thread. The needlework embroidered on the protective layer on the edge was not the method of the Central Plains. Many years ago, when Qi and Ji were stationed in Linghe, they went back to Ling'an several times to give Qi and Sheng a hand. When I came back, I had a lot of flowery clothes from the border, some of them were from Beimo merchants.
The needlework pattern on the edge of the agreement is exactly the same as the needlework pattern on the Beimo clothes that Qi Yuji brought back back then!
This agreement was found in the interlayer of the burnt portraits of Qi and Ji.
Qi and Sheng flattened the agreement, put it in front of them, lowered their heads and stared at the words on it—the fonts include Beimo characters and Central Plains characters, and the strokes are neatly written, and the content on it is not very impressive. Surprisingly, they are all talks and agreements made before the war between Linghe Army and Beimo 11 years ago.
But what really made Qi and Sheng stare was,
Signing of the agreement.
During the talks between the two armies, the Linghe army representing the Yin Dynasty signed the name as the commander-in-chief Qi Yuji. There is no problem with this. The Beimo side signed the name of the king of Beimo, and there is no objection.
However, behind the scribbled name of King Beimo, there are several neat big characters
Moderator of the talk: Mudhana Kour.
……
……
It was as if a hand suddenly opened up the 12 years of past years!
Mudana Kul, this name that no one has ever heard of and no one knows when asked all over the entire Northern Desert, originally thought it was a false notch intentionally fabricated for the purpose of assassination, but now it is reappeared in this way All eyes.
"Your Highness," the restorer put Qi Yuji's writing back in front of Qi Yucheng, and reported, "The words on the agreement are indeed written by His Royal Highness the First Prince."
Wu Yue has been really busy recently, busy with running around, the case of the rotten blood flower was squeezed by the death of the king of Beimo, the fourth prince who originally investigated the case with him went to the case of the rotting blood flower, the case of the rotten blood flower The whole thing was on his head.
His Majesty suspected Shao Chengxian, thinking that he had hidden rot blood flowers and faked perilla with rot blood flowers, but there was no direct evidence.Qi Ce asked Wu Yue to check the accounts of the ten years after the founding of the People's Republic of China. All the merchants in the market will leave accounts when they do business with the imperial court. If you check all the accounts, you will always be able to find something!
All the old accounts are stored in the Boyuan Hall, which is the sea of books in the imperial palace. In addition to the collection of ancient books and scrolls, the records of the historians of the past dynasties and the written bibliographies of the imperial court, large and small, all exist here.
After the assassination of King Beimo, the old emperor pressed harder on the rotten blood flower case, forcing Wu Yue to check all accounts related to gunpowder and fuel within seven days.The left and right servants complained to Wu Yue in private, saying that it took seven days to check the accounts of Yishudian. Is your majesty crazy?There is no such way to squeeze officials!
Does the death of the Northern Mo emperor have anything to do with the rotten blood flower?
Wu Yue smiled politely, telling them not to talk too much.
Qi Yucheng pushed open the door of Boyuan Hall and asked the hall steward to call out all the files about the Linghe case 11 years ago. He found a reading table by the window and sat down. The clerks of Lianshu hurriedly searched for all the files of the Quan Linghe case, and respectfully placed them on the table in front of Qi Yucheng.
"Your Highness, it's all here."
There are not many records related to Ling He's case, but Qi Yucheng felt that it was necessary to check it again. He waved his hand to tell the palace officials and scribes to go down. Don't lock the Boyuan Palace these few nights. He has to stay overnight. investigation.
The hall steward said in a low voice,
"The gate of Boyuan Hall has not been closed in recent days."
Qi and Sheng asked casually, why, there are other people using Boyuan Hall to investigate the case?
The hall steward replied in a low voice, yes, Master Wu is also checking information here these days.
Qi and Sheng suddenly remembered, yes!Wu Yue is still looking for rotten blood flowers!Check whether the rotten blood flower is related to Shao Chengxian!
There were traces of rotting blood flowers on the murder weapon of the Northern Mo King when he died!
Even after several days of working day and night, Wu Yue's clothes were not messy at all.When Qi and Sheng found Wu Yue in the area of Accounting Pavilion, Wu Shang Shuling happened to be sitting on the ninth floor ladder, looking up and looking for something on the bookshelf.
As soon as Qi and Sheng walked two meters away from the ninth-floor ladder, Wu Yue seemed to sense someone behind him, and the hand that was looking for the book stopped sliding, turned his head and bowed to Qi and Sheng calmly,
"Minister Wu Yue, see Your Highness Fourth."
Wu Yue really has a face that makes people feel calm. Qi and Sheng don't have any good impressions of the ministers and important officials in the palace, like He Yunzheng, Shao Chengxian and Zhao Si. Not at all.But for Wu Yue, he felt inexplicably comfortable.
There is an indescribable resemblance to Yin Xiaokuang's gentle feeling that pinches his preferences.
Qi Yusheng asked Wu Yue how the investigation was going and if there was any new progress.
Wu Yue shook his head helplessly, pointed to the thick account book in his hand, and said, it's too difficult, Your Majesty is really killing his ministers...
He also dared to ask Qi Yusheng, is His Highness investigating the murder of King Beimo?
Qi and Sheng nodded. Wu Yue was one of the few people who knew that rotten blood flower powder had been detected on the murder weapon used to assassinate King Beimo. All the people in the Boyuan Palace were killed, and the gate was closed.
Wu Yue retreated from the ladder with a booklet in his arms, and asked Qi Yusheng, "Did Your Highness discover any new clues?"
Qi and Sheng sat at the desk, nodded solemnly,
And took out from his sleeve the jade plaque found at the scene where King Beimo was killed a few days ago.
"This jade tablet is not..." Wu Yue sat down opposite Qi Yucheng, looked at the jade pendant engraved with the words "Mudana Kuer", and frowned, "Isn't it already judged as an assassin? In the eyes of the investigators, is it a fake token?"
"Beimo has asked everyone, but they have never heard of the surname 'Mu Dana'. There is no trace at all. If the entire family and related personnel were not wiped out, a family would have no historical traces at all. , it can only be that this family never existed in this world at all!"
What he was talking about was the conclusion reached by the investigation officials after secretly checking with Beimo officials in those few days. Qi and Cheng pondered for a moment, then took out another thing from their sleeves, pressed it and pushed it in front of Wu Yue, "This Wang found this in the interlayer of portraits left by his eldest brother Huang 12 years ago."
Wu Yue took it and unfolded it. It was a piece of paper sealed with a gold thread edge. The piece of paper seemed to be quite old, so he held it carefully.
The contents inside include Central Plains characters and Beimo characters. Wu Yue can't understand Beimo characters, but all the characters on this paper are bilingual, including the signature of the final signature.
When Wu Yue saw the end, his eyes gradually opened wide.
"Mudana..."
Qi and Sheng closed their eyes and said, I am afraid that this Mu Dana is not an assassin who deliberately faked his name to cover up his identity. Mu Dana actually existed!
"However, since a surname really existed, it is impossible that there is no trace in the historical records..." Wu Yue looked in disbelief, "It is also possible that the surname of Xiaojia was missed by the Ministry of Household Records, but... as long as it is in the No matter how insignificant a family has ever existed in this world, someone must have heard of it."
"But for the surname 'Mu Dana', Bei Mo has conducted a blanket search and inquiry among the people, but no one remembers that such a surname existed... His Highness suddenly took out a piece of paper and wrote it stroke by stroke. with the name 'Mudhana Khur'!"
Qi and Sheng rubbed their temples, and took his words,
"Moreover, the name 'Mudana Ku'er' still appears in the position of the first mate in Beimo!"
Wu Yue asked Qi and Sheng if they had any clues?Qi and Cheng shook their heads, it was too messy, and now they had very little evidence, but the reappearance of this "Mudana Kul" seemed to give them a guiding light in the dark.
"If you say..." Qi Yucheng raised his head, and the fingers pressing his forehead suddenly stopped kneading, "Mu Dana's family was wiped out because of what?"
Wu Yue stood up directly and said it was impossible!Even if a family commits some capital crimes and implicates the nine clans, it is impossible that there will be no traces at all!The way the Mu Dana family disappeared can no longer be described as genocide. All related personnel were directly ordered to be killed, and everyone who had any trivial contact with this family was also wiped out!Even if this family is to be completely erased from the long river of history!
What kind of crime is it that can prevent this surnamed family from even having the human rights that existed before!
Wu Yue couldn't figure it out, and Qi and Sheng couldn't find such a heinous crime. They sat at the desk, and the fallen flowers under the lamp fell one after another.
"Tell me about the progress of your investigation." Qi and Sheng decided to change their thinking. Apart from 'Mu Dana', there are many other things that need to be investigated. The rotting blood flower that came out.
Wu Yue happened to be investigating the connection between Rotten Blood Flower and Prime Minister Shao again.In the two most important cases now, rotten blood flowers appeared, and the person most related to rotted blood flowers was Shao Chengxian.
How are these things related to Shao Chengxian?
Wu Yue said that there was nothing wrong with his investigation, more than half of the accounts had been checked, and it was not found that Prime Minister Shao had any connection with the rot blood flower before that.
"It's possible that it was really because the gold mine was bombed, and for the sake of money, you started to use rotting blood flowers instead of perilla?" Wu Yue pushed the information he found to Qi Yusheng, "But this doesn't mean that What, even if I confirm that the rotten blood flowers in the palace came from Mr. Shao's hand, I can't confirm that the rotten blood flowers on the arrow feathers of King Bei Mo came from the prime minister's mansion..."
Qi Yucheng's hands pressing their foreheads began to move again. Indeed, even if it is confirmed that Shao Chengxian replaced Liubaisu with rotten blood flowers, it does not prove that those rotten blood flower arrow feathers that killed King Beimo were also written by Shao Chengxian.Shao Chengxian had no reason to kill Bei Mo King, why did he kill Bei Mo King?In the past 11 years, the relationship between Beimo and the Central Plains has been slightly better, and it is the Prime Minister's Mansion...
"However," Wu Yue suddenly said to Qi Qi and Sheng,
"Although the minister did not find out the relationship between the rotten blood flower and Prime Minister Shao, he discovered a rather strange thing."
Qi and Sheng stopped rubbing their temple fingers,
"You said."
A look of embarrassment appeared on Wu Yue's face, "But this matter...is related to..."
Qi and Sheng waved, "But it's okay to say."
Wu Yue took a deep breath, stood up, and Qi Qi and Sheng bowed their hands respectfully, "I found out a seemingly irrelevant thing - Prime Minister Shao's private gold mine was purchased exactly 11 years ago."
Qi Yucheng's closed eyelids suddenly lifted.
"Although there is no specific month and date of purchase, the year is exactly 11 years ago."
"It's the same year that the Linghe Army was destroyed."
"But at that time, Prime Minister Shao was just a prefect of a small Wuli Prefecture. Calculated according to the annual dividends of the prefect in the Yin Dynasty, even if Prime Minister Shao's performance in the country was the first, he received the most dividends from the court—"
"He can't even afford such a big gold mine! That gold mine was the one with the largest area in the Southern Territory back then, worth hundreds of billions of silver taels!"
The wind that drifted in from outside the window suddenly blew out the flames jumping in the lamps, the night was quiet, people knocking chess pieces in the Shuhua Hall twirled a fallen scene
There are too many people in the world who can be called "Elder Prince". The first boy in a prince's mansion, or the first elegant son of a wealthy family, can all be called "Elder Prince" by the world.
Yin Xiaokuang was turned over, his forehead was dripping with blood, his eyes were empty looking at Qi Yusheng who was holding him above his head, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, tremblingly said,
"I really...don't dare..."
passed out.
Qi and Sheng also couldn't care about who the "big son" Yin Xiaokuang was talking about, why Yin Xiaokuang went crazy again, and all kinds of things that Yin Xiaokuang made him angry.When he saw Yin Xiaokuang huddled in his arms without a trace of anger, the string in his heart snapped again, "Crack!", "Doctor Xuan!"
The Imperial Hospital is almost becoming the royal hospital of Cheng En Palace. Everyone in it knows that His Highness the Fourth Highness of Cheng En Palace has an unconscious pet. His body is rotten to scum, and he challenges His Highness's bottom line every day. Let His Highness take action Ruthless, if you hurt your body, let the imperial doctor treat it.
Qi and Sheng originally intended for Qin Xiao to come over, but the envoy of Qin Yuan was on a vacation to visit his relatives, so they had to invite other imperial physicians to hang Yin Xiaokuang.But in the palace, apart from the Cheng En Hall, it is rumored that the Fourth Highness raises a little girl in the palace. On the way with the new Imperial Physician, the Hall Commander specially told the Imperial Physician to meet Young Master Yi when he arrived at the Cheng En Hall. Do not publicize!
The Imperial Physician was also curious about why he couldn't make an announcement. Everyone in the palace knew about His Royal Highness raising pets, and everyone had heard that the pets were disobedient. Isn't it just a heart-piercing master?What can't be said!
When they arrived at Cheng'en Hall, the imperial physician saw that Yin Xiaokuang turned out to be a man with a handle, and was stunned on the spot.
grass!This, this, this!His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince actually raised a boy? !
Today's emperor Qi Ce hates Duanxiu so much, everyone in the world knows why there are so many wine and teahouses in Ling'an City, but in terms of providing for boys, only the Zuixianfang family is in the open?Except for Boss Yin, no one dared to act like a gigolo under Qi Ce's nose!
Qi and Sheng are princes!Zize's own son!
If His Majesty finds out that his most outstanding and precious son is actually...
The imperial doctor knelt down on the spot, unable to grasp the medicine box firmly. He looked at Qi Yusheng who was sitting by the bed guarding Yin Xiaokuang, panicked, felt that he might have left the door of the ward, his eyes were like saying goodbye to his head up!
With Qi Yusheng's previous style of doing things, he would directly gouge out the eyes of someone who had seen him intimately. The imperial doctor was thinking about how to survive without eyes, but he heard Qi Yusheng in front of him suddenly speak eagerly,
"Quick! Show him first!"
The imperial doctor wailed, "How can I live without my eyes!" Qi Yucheng was stunned for a long time, and the commander-in-chief whispered in Qi Yusheng's ear, "Your Highness, you have killed many people who snooped on your secrets before."
"Young master Yin, he is a man."
Qi and Sheng understood, waved their sleeves,
"This king will not kill you,"
"Nor gouging out your eyes."
"But," he stood up and walked in front of the imperial physician, speaking condescendingly,
"People on the bed, you have to do your best!"
The imperial physician kowtowed again and again,
"Sir, definitely!"
Some things may really be that I have committed a lot of crimes in the past, and Feng Shui has taken turns, and in the end all the bad results have fallen on my head.Before, Qi Yucheng never felt that there was anything wrong with killing a person or a group of people. As long as it was not good for him, they all beheaded, the effect was good and the speed was fast. He had no heart, so naturally he couldn't feel the temperature of the blood.
But now it's different.
For a Yin Xiaokuang...
He is about to overthrow all the principles he has established in the past 26 years!
Qi and Sheng sat in the lobby of Shuhua Palace, which is another residence of Qi and Sheng in the palace, where they usually meet local ministers instead of Cheng'en Palace, where all the daily necessities are available, Dining room, tea room, living pavilion are all matched one by one.
Now that the Cheng'en Hall was burned, they could just live here for a while.
Yin Xiaokuang was lying in the Nuan Pavilion inside, and Qi and Sheng were sitting in the lobby outside the Nuan Pavilion. Time passed by, and it was already midnight. The imperial physician directed the doctors to come in and out. A blue circle gradually appeared under the eyelids.
He just opened his eyes and watched all night.
The next day, when the Commander-in-Chief stepped into the Shuhua Hall again, he saw Qi Yucheng sitting in the same spot where he had left last night with disheveled clothes, and his face was not very good.The Commander-in-Chief of the Palace remembered that Qi and Sheng seemed to have fainted in the prison of the Ministry of Justice not long ago due to overwork, and suddenly felt a little distressed, and asked Qi and Sheng, "Your Highness, you should go back and have a rest first, here I will guard you for you." yes."
Qi and Sheng moved their stiff necks, raised their hands,
"Need not."
The stubble protruding slightly on the chin is very eye-catching.
The Commander-in-Chief still insisted on asking Qi and Sheng to rest. He really felt sorry for his Highness, regardless of etiquette and disobedience.Qi Yucheng was annoyed, and almost turned against the commander-in-chief.
"Your Highness!" At this moment, the door of the Nuan Pavilion was opened, and the imperial doctor who was treating Yin Xiaokuang hurried over, knelt on the ground,
"Yi Xiao...Miss Yi, wake up!"
Qi and Cheng flicked their sleeves and walked towards the Nuan Pavilion.
Yin Xiaokuang was lying on the bed, wearing only a spacious white undergarment, which was completely/naked, with intricate white cloth wrapped one by one.
The two slender legs were hung in mid-air by strong cloth strips, and the movements were quite embarrassing.
As soon as Qi and Sheng entered the Nuan Pavilion, they saw Yin Xiaokuang lying on the soft couch in a posture about to be fucked frontally, his eyes were wide open, the corners of his eyes were red, and there were a bunch of red bruises on his face.
Why, such humiliation?
Qi and Sheng stood by the door for a long time, and the rest of the people withdrew one after another. They were the only two left in the Nuan Pavilion of Shuhua Palace. Now, he is lying here with his legs crossed and his lower body wide open, allowing outsiders to see him at a glance.
Yes, isn't all of this caused by oneself?
That night, I couldn't control my drinking, and I personally fucked/made people like this.
He was so badly injured...
And then what happened?
I was locked in a small black room by myself again, and I was tortured like this by myself again!
Qi Yusheng raised his hand and punched the door frame hard.
When Yin Xiaokuang heard the voice, he tilted his head with great difficulty. Seeing that it was Qi Yusheng, he suddenly showed a smirk that Qi Yusheng was very familiar with.
"Your Highness...the chrysanthemum/flower, it hurts..."
Qi Yusheng's heart felt like someone had stabbed him with a knife, and it hurt so badly.Yesterday Yin Xiaokuang went crazy in the small black room, and the names he yelled made Qi and Cheng think all night.Those madness did not seem to be caused simply because of his forced marriage, but they seemed to have been deposited in this small body for many years.
Subconsciously I am afraid of the small dark room, I am subconsciously afraid of someone, I am subconsciously avoiding by torturing my body.
Qi and Sheng combined Yin Xiaokuang's famous flirtatiousness and came to a conclusion that made him sad to death. He went forward, lifted his robe and sat on the side of the bed, stretching out his hand.
Yin Xiaokuang shrank his head in almost subconsciously.
But soon, he realized it again, and foolishly pasted it on Qi Yusheng's palm.
Qi Yusheng's eyes were a little red, and he gently touched Yin Xiaokuang's swollen face, his voice trembling.
"Your Highness... the palm of your hand is so warm..."
Qi and Sheng asked Yin Xiaokuang,
"Xiao Kuang, you... have been treated badly before, right?"
The air suddenly condensed.
Lying on the bed, the little light in Yin Xiaokuang's eyes instantly went out, and the rogue stars in the waves of the day also ended. His pupils became pitch black, and there seemed to be an endless abyss inside.
This kind of Yin Xiaokuang made Qi Yusheng see again the person who was about to go crazy and hit the wall in the small black room that day.
Qi Yusheng just wanted to speak and avoid this topic, he thought it should be, Yin Xiaokuang must have suffered inhumane violence a long time ago, and it may not be once or twice.The shadow of childhood will cause huge trauma, and only in the future will you use wandering/swinging to cover up your scars.
Qi Yusheng himself knows this very well. When his elder brother Qi Yuji was killed and set fire to the entire Linghe army camp, when he followed Qi Ce to claim the body, he saw the burnt ashes of his elder brother beyond recognition The residue really cast a huge shadow on the hearts of young Qi and Sheng!
Sometimes Qi and Sheng feel that they have become cruel and decisive, which has a lot to do with Ling He's rebellion!
Yin Xiaokuang's long eyelashes trembled slightly.
"Your Highness..."
"What are you talking about..."
With a blink of his eyes, he returned to his silly look, but his hanging legs were trembling, as if he was trying to control his emotions.
Qi Yucheng took a deep breath, and touched Yin Xiaokuang's forehead in the most gentle tone he could, "In the future...you won't be allowed to encounter those things again."
A trace of confusion flashed across Yin Xiaokuang's eyes.
Qi and Sheng continued,
"I'm sorry, I was the one who went my own way before... I don't know your past, I don't know the injuries you have suffered..."
"Because I like you so much, I wanted you to marry me, but ignored your feelings..."
Yin Xiaokuang silently listened to Qi Yusheng's confession.
Qi and Sheng rolled their eyes over the past, trying not to be too jerky in their tone, "Suffering that kind of crime in childhood is indeed a fear of the relationship between people. I'm sorry, I, I was talking to the Ministry of Criminal Justice that night. I don’t know why I can’t control myself...Xiao Kuang, if you don’t want to forgive me, then don’t forgive me. I will treat you well. .”
"If you don't want to marry, then don't marry... You can continue to live in Cheng'en Hall after it is repaired. But... whether you marry or not, you must be in front of my eyes."
"I... will protect you."
"lifetime."
If you listen to too much love talk, you are the boss. Yin Xiaokuang quietly listened to what Qi and Sheng said after putting down their airs. If you want to change someone, you can just change it to the daughter of a rich and powerful family in Ling'an City. Hearing the affectionate words of His Highness the Fourth Prince Confessions, you must be so beautiful in your heart that you can pinch someone.
However, he is not the daughter of a powerful and wealthy family, he is Yin Xiaokuang, the most promiscuous/slutty prostitute in Ling'an, who is rumored to be able to be fucked by opening his legs!
"Your Highness... Yin Xiaokuang suddenly grinned, "I am not willing to marry..."
Qi and Sheng froze in place.
Mingming had previously said that he wanted to be free and not be bound by marriage, but after only two days, he suddenly wanted to marry again.
Qi Yusheng asked Yin Xiaokuang not to force him.
Yin Xiaokuang's eyes turned red all of a sudden, he seemed to have thought of something very bad, his little face drooped, and he said with sobs, "I don't want to marry, and I don't dislike Your Highness...Before, it was indeed because I have been hurt in the past, so I dare not treat others sincerely. I am afraid, I am afraid that His Highness will hate me in the future, because I used to be so..."
Qi Yucheng didn't expect Yin Xiaokuang to confess his heart out of the blue, as if he had been poured honey, and the sweetness blossomed all of a sudden.But this honey is mixed with ice balls, which is sweet and painful.All of a sudden, his heart ached to death, it turned out that under Yin Xiaokuang's corrupt/rotten appearance, buried deeply was a punctured and fragmented heart.Qi and Sheng lifted Yin Xiaokuang up like a treasure and held them in their arms, swearing through gritted teeth, "Why, I'm tired of you...I don't care about the things in the past! Don't worry, from now on in your life There will only be happiness, and Qi and Sheng swear on our lives that we will do our best to keep you happy for the rest of your life!"
This oath is so nice, Yin Xiaokuang smiled happily, tears were still streaming, looking quite strange.
Qi Yusheng asked Yin Xiaokuang what he wanted, and he would definitely satisfy it!Yin Xiaokuang's body began to ache again, Qi Yusheng hurriedly put him back on the bed, Yin Xiaokuang grinned in pain, and did not forget to answer Qi Yusheng's question.
"There is no request..."
"Your Highness is willing to marry someone with a low status like me...Xiao Kuang is already very happy..."
"that is……"
Qi Yusheng asked Yin Xiaokuang, tell me!
Yin Xiaokuang raised his head, seemingly hesitating for a moment.
Qi Yucheng told him not to be afraid, to speak out, and he would give whatever he wanted. If he didn't want to be a daughter, Qi Yusheng would go and tell the world right now that his fourth prince married a man!
Yin Xiaokuang repeatedly said no, no, no need for so many things!Your Majesty hates broken sleeves, and you must not embarrass Your Majesty!It took him quite a while before he asked Qi Yusheng in a very small and humble tone, "Can you...don't go back to Cheng'en Hall..."
Qi and Sheng asked, where do you want to live?
Yin Xiaokuang bit his lip and pointed to the door of Nuan Pavilion in Shuhua Palace.
"I like Shuhua Palace, the place is small and warm."
Of course, Qi and Sheng couldn't be troubled by a small residence!Qi and Sheng agreed immediately, and immediately sent someone to announce to the outside world-in the future, they will discuss matters with His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and all of them will go to Cheng'en Palace!
Shuhua Palace, no outsiders are allowed in!
Yin Xiaokuang grinned, his lower body hurt again, his face turned pale and he said that he was so sleepy and wanted to sleep.
Qi Yusheng said that you should go to sleep, I will watch you here.
At this moment, a plea for orders came from outside the gate of Shuhua Hall, Qi and Sheng asked what was the matter, and the palace marshal outside reported respectfully, "Your Highness, the restorer said that he has something important to discuss with His Highness."
Qi Yusheng's expressions suddenly changed, and they stood up.
"Then you... sleep peacefully here." He stretched out his hand and covered Yin Xiaokuang's stomach with a quilt, "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be right back."
Yin Xiaokuang closed his eyes obediently, Qi Yucheng looked at him again, and when he heard his breathing gradually stabilized, he turned and left.
The moment the gate of Shuhua Palace was closed, Yin Xiaokuang who was lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and pulled his legs out of the cloth covers. The moment his buttocks landed on the bed, he felt as if someone used a drill to drill a wooden stick from his place into his body, and the pain exploded. I don't know if it is bleeding again.Yin Xiaokuang rolled over and got out of bed, almost crawling to move forward.
Opposite the bed was a mahogany table, and behind it was a boarded wall.The wooden planks seem to be quite old, and the wood used is red nanmu, which was still popular in the Yin Dynasty more than 50 years ago.
Red nanmu became extinct due to deforestation in the last years of the Yin Dynasty, so it was impossible for this kind of wood to appear after the founding of Daji.That's right, the Shuhua Palace is exactly the palace left by the Yin Dynasty!
At the turn of the old and new dynasties, half of the palaces in Ling'an City were remodeled, like the halls where the emperor's princes and concubines lived; while the Jinluan Palace and the Shuhua Palace, which were specially used for office work, were preserved.Not only because the construction of these halls took longer than the daily life, and many of the materials used have become antiques, but also because most of these halls contain ancient cultural relics handed down from previous dynasties.
The Shuhua Palace was built in the Yin Dynasty, and many valuable objects were stored in it. After the establishment of the New Dynasty, all the treasured cultural relics were taken out, and the main hall returned to Qi and Sheng, but the layout of the treasures inside has not changed.
Qi and Sheng also took the Shuhua Palace and put a lot of important things.
These hidden treasure compartments containing the most precious things of His Highness the Fourth Prince are hidden in the checkered stone wall behind the wooden plank!
Yin Xiaokuang peeled back some of the curtains, and seeing that Qi and Sheng had already left the Shuhua Hall, he turned around and leaned against the wall, feeling for the switch on the wooden board.
Swish—the light green wall panels faded to the sides.
A large wall of gray checkered stones comes into view!
These squares look like storage cabinets, with intricate patterns engraved on them. Those who know hidden grids will understand that such a cabinet with irregular patterns must have an opening mechanism!
How could a little male prostitute know about the royal family's organs?When the Yin Dynasty cast this kind of hidden stone compartment, it hired the world's top foundry master!Later, when Qi Ce destroyed the Yin Dynasty and usurped the throne, it took a lot of effort to recruit the world's most elite secret deciphering masters, and only then did he find the way to open the secret compartment!
Yin Xiaokuang untied the white cloth wrapped around his arm, and the strips of cloth slipped from his fingertips, and bloodstains still faintly ooze from the bitten fingers that had already been medicated.Regardless of the pain, he put his hands on the squares of the dark grid, stroking the lines on the grid as if he was looking at an old friend.
The dark red blood wiped across the depressions of those lines.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
Wherever the fingertip touched, all the dark spaces miraculously bounced off!
He groped and searched carefully one by one, his lower body began to bleed again due to the activity, seeping into the white cloth, Yin Xiaokuang gritted his teeth, and broke out in a cold sweat from the pain all over his body.
I don't know how long it has passed, but he suddenly pulled out a half-shaped jade pendant from a small hidden compartment at the bottom. , the dents where the paint has fallen off can vaguely see the handwriting carved with small seal characters.
Yin Xiaokuang's breath was stagnant, and with trembling hands, he took off the white jade hairpin that had been stuck in his head from the beginning to the end, opened the top of the jade hairpin, and rolled out a jade pendant that was only in half.
The two jade pendants are just spliced together, and the words on them are connected together
Qi and Ji.
……
……
slam
There was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps from the hall outside the Nuan Pavilion, Yin Xiaokuang was startled, he quickly tore off the jade pendant, and stuffed it back into the secret compartment.He hurriedly restored the wall to its original state, and struggled to climb back. As soon as he got to the bed, he heard the door of the warm pavilion being carefully pushed open.
"Xiao Kuang?!"
Qi and Sheng shouted frantically.
Yin Xiaokuang said that he just wanted to drink saliva, his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't shout. Qi Yusheng was annoyed at his carelessness, and after feeding Yin Xiaokuang thoughtfully, he helped Yin Xiaokuang back to the bed, tied his legs again, and gave Yin Xiaokuang another hug. He bound the wound.
"I'll come back to get something." Qi Yusheng bowed his head and kissed Yin Xiaokuang's forehead, "Go on to sleep, call me if you need anything, I'll be outside in the lobby."
Yin Xiaokuang said yes softly, Qi Yucheng rubbed his hair, and suddenly found that the hairpin on the jade crown that had been used to fix the hair was missing.He asked Yin Xiaokuang if the hairpin fell off?Yin Xiaokuang opened his eyes and said weakly, "I tripped when I got out of bed just now, as if I fell on the ground."
Qi Yucheng turned his head to look at the ground, and it really fell on the ground, but the position was still a certain distance from the place where Yin Xiaokuang climbed on the bed. The ring was opened, and he tapped it smoothly, and gently inserted it back on the top of Yin Xiaokuang's head, "Go to sleep."
Qi Yucheng got up, went to the opposite desk to look through, took out a piece of paper that was pressed at the bottom, and lifted his legs to leave the Nuan Pavilion.
Yin Xiaokuang loosened his tightly clenched hands, dripping with sweat.He gasped for breath, his heart was pounding, he turned his head, glanced at the half of the jade pendant that he kicked to the bottom of the vase shelf in an emergency, and groped and crawled over.
Qi and Sheng were sitting in the main hall of Shuhua Hall, with a picture in front of them, it was a simple family letter, written on letter paper.The letter paper should have been old for a certain period of time, and the corners and corners have already been cracked.
The pen and ink on the paper has also faded a little.
"This is...?" The restorer standing by the side of the table pointed to the letter paper and asked Qi Yucheng, "The remains of His Royal Highness?"
Qi Yucheng looked down at the letter, nodded slowly,
"Yes,"
"It's a family letter left by Brother Huang when he was young."
The restorer asked Qi and Sheng if they could pick it up to have a look, Qi and Sheng hummed, and the restorer carefully picked up the letter paper, fearing that it might be crushed.
He took the uneven glass sheet and enlarged the words on the paper bit by bit.
Qi and Cheng frowned into the word "Chuan", and turned their heads to look at the center of the table. Apart from the letter paper, there was also a half-burnt ink painting on the table.
That's right, it was the one he asked the restorer to restore with all his strength - the portrait of the eldest prince Qi and Ji before his death.
The painting has been burnt and cannot be repaired, and the restorer has really tried his best, but it is a pity that the painting is so old, the paper has been weathered to a little fragile, and last time Yin Xiaokuang smashed red ink on it, Cleaning already made the painting even weaker.
Now that it has been burned by a raging fire, how can it be repaired!
but!
Qi and Sheng looked at the top of the painting, stretched out their hands, and pulled out a piece of folded paper pressed against the edge of the painting bit by bit.
Spread out almost slightly and carefully.
It was a letter of agreement with a border sewn with gold thread. The needlework embroidered on the protective layer on the edge was not the method of the Central Plains. Many years ago, when Qi and Ji were stationed in Linghe, they went back to Ling'an several times to give Qi and Sheng a hand. When I came back, I had a lot of flowery clothes from the border, some of them were from Beimo merchants.
The needlework pattern on the edge of the agreement is exactly the same as the needlework pattern on the Beimo clothes that Qi Yuji brought back back then!
This agreement was found in the interlayer of the burnt portraits of Qi and Ji.
Qi and Sheng flattened the agreement, put it in front of them, lowered their heads and stared at the words on it—the fonts include Beimo characters and Central Plains characters, and the strokes are neatly written, and the content on it is not very impressive. Surprisingly, they are all talks and agreements made before the war between Linghe Army and Beimo 11 years ago.
But what really made Qi and Sheng stare was,
Signing of the agreement.
During the talks between the two armies, the Linghe army representing the Yin Dynasty signed the name as the commander-in-chief Qi Yuji. There is no problem with this. The Beimo side signed the name of the king of Beimo, and there is no objection.
However, behind the scribbled name of King Beimo, there are several neat big characters
Moderator of the talk: Mudhana Kour.
……
……
It was as if a hand suddenly opened up the 12 years of past years!
Mudana Kul, this name that no one has ever heard of and no one knows when asked all over the entire Northern Desert, originally thought it was a false notch intentionally fabricated for the purpose of assassination, but now it is reappeared in this way All eyes.
"Your Highness," the restorer put Qi Yuji's writing back in front of Qi Yucheng, and reported, "The words on the agreement are indeed written by His Royal Highness the First Prince."
Wu Yue has been really busy recently, busy with running around, the case of the rotten blood flower was squeezed by the death of the king of Beimo, the fourth prince who originally investigated the case with him went to the case of the rotting blood flower, the case of the rotten blood flower The whole thing was on his head.
His Majesty suspected Shao Chengxian, thinking that he had hidden rot blood flowers and faked perilla with rot blood flowers, but there was no direct evidence.Qi Ce asked Wu Yue to check the accounts of the ten years after the founding of the People's Republic of China. All the merchants in the market will leave accounts when they do business with the imperial court. If you check all the accounts, you will always be able to find something!
All the old accounts are stored in the Boyuan Hall, which is the sea of books in the imperial palace. In addition to the collection of ancient books and scrolls, the records of the historians of the past dynasties and the written bibliographies of the imperial court, large and small, all exist here.
After the assassination of King Beimo, the old emperor pressed harder on the rotten blood flower case, forcing Wu Yue to check all accounts related to gunpowder and fuel within seven days.The left and right servants complained to Wu Yue in private, saying that it took seven days to check the accounts of Yishudian. Is your majesty crazy?There is no such way to squeeze officials!
Does the death of the Northern Mo emperor have anything to do with the rotten blood flower?
Wu Yue smiled politely, telling them not to talk too much.
Qi Yucheng pushed open the door of Boyuan Hall and asked the hall steward to call out all the files about the Linghe case 11 years ago. He found a reading table by the window and sat down. The clerks of Lianshu hurriedly searched for all the files of the Quan Linghe case, and respectfully placed them on the table in front of Qi Yucheng.
"Your Highness, it's all here."
There are not many records related to Ling He's case, but Qi Yucheng felt that it was necessary to check it again. He waved his hand to tell the palace officials and scribes to go down. Don't lock the Boyuan Palace these few nights. He has to stay overnight. investigation.
The hall steward said in a low voice,
"The gate of Boyuan Hall has not been closed in recent days."
Qi and Sheng asked casually, why, there are other people using Boyuan Hall to investigate the case?
The hall steward replied in a low voice, yes, Master Wu is also checking information here these days.
Qi and Sheng suddenly remembered, yes!Wu Yue is still looking for rotten blood flowers!Check whether the rotten blood flower is related to Shao Chengxian!
There were traces of rotting blood flowers on the murder weapon of the Northern Mo King when he died!
Even after several days of working day and night, Wu Yue's clothes were not messy at all.When Qi and Sheng found Wu Yue in the area of Accounting Pavilion, Wu Shang Shuling happened to be sitting on the ninth floor ladder, looking up and looking for something on the bookshelf.
As soon as Qi and Sheng walked two meters away from the ninth-floor ladder, Wu Yue seemed to sense someone behind him, and the hand that was looking for the book stopped sliding, turned his head and bowed to Qi and Sheng calmly,
"Minister Wu Yue, see Your Highness Fourth."
Wu Yue really has a face that makes people feel calm. Qi and Sheng don't have any good impressions of the ministers and important officials in the palace, like He Yunzheng, Shao Chengxian and Zhao Si. Not at all.But for Wu Yue, he felt inexplicably comfortable.
There is an indescribable resemblance to Yin Xiaokuang's gentle feeling that pinches his preferences.
Qi Yusheng asked Wu Yue how the investigation was going and if there was any new progress.
Wu Yue shook his head helplessly, pointed to the thick account book in his hand, and said, it's too difficult, Your Majesty is really killing his ministers...
He also dared to ask Qi Yusheng, is His Highness investigating the murder of King Beimo?
Qi and Sheng nodded. Wu Yue was one of the few people who knew that rotten blood flower powder had been detected on the murder weapon used to assassinate King Beimo. All the people in the Boyuan Palace were killed, and the gate was closed.
Wu Yue retreated from the ladder with a booklet in his arms, and asked Qi Yusheng, "Did Your Highness discover any new clues?"
Qi and Sheng sat at the desk, nodded solemnly,
And took out from his sleeve the jade plaque found at the scene where King Beimo was killed a few days ago.
"This jade tablet is not..." Wu Yue sat down opposite Qi Yucheng, looked at the jade pendant engraved with the words "Mudana Kuer", and frowned, "Isn't it already judged as an assassin? In the eyes of the investigators, is it a fake token?"
"Beimo has asked everyone, but they have never heard of the surname 'Mu Dana'. There is no trace at all. If the entire family and related personnel were not wiped out, a family would have no historical traces at all. , it can only be that this family never existed in this world at all!"
What he was talking about was the conclusion reached by the investigation officials after secretly checking with Beimo officials in those few days. Qi and Cheng pondered for a moment, then took out another thing from their sleeves, pressed it and pushed it in front of Wu Yue, "This Wang found this in the interlayer of portraits left by his eldest brother Huang 12 years ago."
Wu Yue took it and unfolded it. It was a piece of paper sealed with a gold thread edge. The piece of paper seemed to be quite old, so he held it carefully.
The contents inside include Central Plains characters and Beimo characters. Wu Yue can't understand Beimo characters, but all the characters on this paper are bilingual, including the signature of the final signature.
When Wu Yue saw the end, his eyes gradually opened wide.
"Mudana..."
Qi and Sheng closed their eyes and said, I am afraid that this Mu Dana is not an assassin who deliberately faked his name to cover up his identity. Mu Dana actually existed!
"However, since a surname really existed, it is impossible that there is no trace in the historical records..." Wu Yue looked in disbelief, "It is also possible that the surname of Xiaojia was missed by the Ministry of Household Records, but... as long as it is in the No matter how insignificant a family has ever existed in this world, someone must have heard of it."
"But for the surname 'Mu Dana', Bei Mo has conducted a blanket search and inquiry among the people, but no one remembers that such a surname existed... His Highness suddenly took out a piece of paper and wrote it stroke by stroke. with the name 'Mudhana Khur'!"
Qi and Sheng rubbed their temples, and took his words,
"Moreover, the name 'Mudana Ku'er' still appears in the position of the first mate in Beimo!"
Wu Yue asked Qi and Sheng if they had any clues?Qi and Cheng shook their heads, it was too messy, and now they had very little evidence, but the reappearance of this "Mudana Kul" seemed to give them a guiding light in the dark.
"If you say..." Qi Yucheng raised his head, and the fingers pressing his forehead suddenly stopped kneading, "Mu Dana's family was wiped out because of what?"
Wu Yue stood up directly and said it was impossible!Even if a family commits some capital crimes and implicates the nine clans, it is impossible that there will be no traces at all!The way the Mu Dana family disappeared can no longer be described as genocide. All related personnel were directly ordered to be killed, and everyone who had any trivial contact with this family was also wiped out!Even if this family is to be completely erased from the long river of history!
What kind of crime is it that can prevent this surnamed family from even having the human rights that existed before!
Wu Yue couldn't figure it out, and Qi and Sheng couldn't find such a heinous crime. They sat at the desk, and the fallen flowers under the lamp fell one after another.
"Tell me about the progress of your investigation." Qi and Sheng decided to change their thinking. Apart from 'Mu Dana', there are many other things that need to be investigated. The rotting blood flower that came out.
Wu Yue happened to be investigating the connection between Rotten Blood Flower and Prime Minister Shao again.In the two most important cases now, rotten blood flowers appeared, and the person most related to rotted blood flowers was Shao Chengxian.
How are these things related to Shao Chengxian?
Wu Yue said that there was nothing wrong with his investigation, more than half of the accounts had been checked, and it was not found that Prime Minister Shao had any connection with the rot blood flower before that.
"It's possible that it was really because the gold mine was bombed, and for the sake of money, you started to use rotting blood flowers instead of perilla?" Wu Yue pushed the information he found to Qi Yusheng, "But this doesn't mean that What, even if I confirm that the rotten blood flowers in the palace came from Mr. Shao's hand, I can't confirm that the rotten blood flowers on the arrow feathers of King Bei Mo came from the prime minister's mansion..."
Qi Yucheng's hands pressing their foreheads began to move again. Indeed, even if it is confirmed that Shao Chengxian replaced Liubaisu with rotten blood flowers, it does not prove that those rotten blood flower arrow feathers that killed King Beimo were also written by Shao Chengxian.Shao Chengxian had no reason to kill Bei Mo King, why did he kill Bei Mo King?In the past 11 years, the relationship between Beimo and the Central Plains has been slightly better, and it is the Prime Minister's Mansion...
"However," Wu Yue suddenly said to Qi Qi and Sheng,
"Although the minister did not find out the relationship between the rotten blood flower and Prime Minister Shao, he discovered a rather strange thing."
Qi and Sheng stopped rubbing their temple fingers,
"You said."
A look of embarrassment appeared on Wu Yue's face, "But this matter...is related to..."
Qi and Sheng waved, "But it's okay to say."
Wu Yue took a deep breath, stood up, and Qi Qi and Sheng bowed their hands respectfully, "I found out a seemingly irrelevant thing - Prime Minister Shao's private gold mine was purchased exactly 11 years ago."
Qi Yucheng's closed eyelids suddenly lifted.
"Although there is no specific month and date of purchase, the year is exactly 11 years ago."
"It's the same year that the Linghe Army was destroyed."
"But at that time, Prime Minister Shao was just a prefect of a small Wuli Prefecture. Calculated according to the annual dividends of the prefect in the Yin Dynasty, even if Prime Minister Shao's performance in the country was the first, he received the most dividends from the court—"
"He can't even afford such a big gold mine! That gold mine was the one with the largest area in the Southern Territory back then, worth hundreds of billions of silver taels!"
The wind that drifted in from outside the window suddenly blew out the flames jumping in the lamps, the night was quiet, people knocking chess pieces in the Shuhua Hall twirled a fallen scene
