Soft-boned beauty, isn't he fragrant?

"Of course there is evidence, but the crime has not been fully explained, what is the prince anxious about?"

Cui Chenglin finished speaking in a cold voice, and with a wave of his hand, a small waiter holding a long tray came out from the crowd. A soft sword and a soft thorn were placed in the middle. metallic luster.

It was Chu Gui's Qiushui sword and the stab in his palm.

"He was also responsible for the assassination in the Imperial Garden on the Shangyuan Festival. The murder weapon is here. What else can we say?"

Xiao Qi smiled: "The chief executive randomly took out two weapons and said they were heavy buildings. Did he have his name on them or was he caught by you? Neither... It's really hard to convince people."

"Heh, bring the witnesses here." Cui Chenglin was confident.

A heavily tied young man was pushed out to kneel on the ground, his bruised face was covered with blood stains, tears and snot, and it was impossible to tell his eyebrows.

He didn't dare to look at the gate of the palace, and only pointed out tremblingly: "Then... that soft sword belongs to Mr. Chonglou, and so does the soft thorn. I've seen him wrap it around his wrist as... a decorative bracelet." When the little one was serving, I accidentally heard him talking to himself, and all he said were the names of the emperor and empress, and the tone was very...very fierce, as if he was going to eat people!"

After saying this, Chu Gui and Xiao Qi only heard the voice and recognized the person. It was Yun Lan, the attendant who had been by Chu Gui's side since he entered the palace.

But is this plausible?The bull's head is wrong with the horse's mouth!

His soft thorns have always been around the base of the fingers, when did they touch the wrist?Besides, he was born as an assassin, so he didn't have the habit of talking to himself, it might as well be more believable to say that he revealed his secrets when he talked in his sleep!

This is clearly due to lack of evidence, and someone was randomly arrested and beaten into a trick, and used to plant blame.

But his mother's anger is here, and it happens to fall on the right person!

The things are indeed his, if you really want to study his route that day, there is really no way to prove your innocence.It’s not clear about the Shangyuan Festival, and it’s even more unclear about the Queen’s last night. The two schedules are on the right track. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

Cui Chenglin: "This is the messenger of your family's heavy building. There are all witnesses and material evidence. What else can the prince say? Come, take him down!"

"Wait a minute!" Xiao Qi sneered, and began to think about the countermeasures in his mind, regardless of other things first, and the test of witnesses was refuted first.

"Shangyuan Festival Chonglou has always been by Gu's side, and he has never left half a step. You have never seen the so-called soft thorn and soft sword Gu. The attendant who is close to you is a witness, but Gu, the dignified first-rank prince, cannot be a witness." Is it gone?"

This picture of the prince who is said to be lonely and widowed is posed, and the swordsmen and archers who were just about to move really hesitated, and their momentum was much lower for no reason.

Cui Chenglin seemed to have expected it a long time ago, took out a roll of silk script from his arms, slowly unfolded it and said loudly: "The emperor's order, anyone who shelters the rebels, no matter how high or low they are, will be punished with the same crime. If you dare to resist, you will be killed!"

His ruthless eyes stared straight at Xiao Qi, with a bit of deceit in the coldness, as if wishing that he would disobey and disrespect.

The situation is imminent, it seems that this crime will be charged no matter what, Chu Gui glanced at it, Xiao Qi's side face did not show any expression, but he was too familiar with this face, so he could close his eyes from there. The corners of his mouth, and the slightly throbbing blue veins on his forehead, could sense the tension and anxiety in the other party's heart.

When he first wanted to use this springboard, when Shangyuan Festival decided to make a move alone, he had predicted that this kind of situation would happen tonight, and he thought he would never regret it, but he never expected that time had passed, and when he really faced this moment , The regretful heart broke in an instant, just because the person who shouldn't be involved was involved.

He took a deep look at the person, and strode forward, planning to rush out to collect the charges, and kept thinking about how to cut off Xiao Qi's connection with this matter.

He had just taken two steps, but his wrist was tightly held by someone, as tight as a red-hot iron lock. It was hot and slightly painful, with a fierce force that he would never let go.

Xiao Qi opened his mouth, with a look of contempt in his sneer: "Such loose and unscrupulous human evidence, there is really no excuse for incriminating it. I know that the emperor is also a man, and I used to be afraid of the power of my uncles." Just bear it, Chief Cui, you have secretly done a lot for him, you should know the details.

What's the matter, now that my uncle is gone, and my uncle is old and often sick, so he is unscrupulous?Marrying the number one beauty is not enough, but also coveting the first male oiran in history?

dream!Xiao Qi doesn't have much ambition, but the reputation of loving and cherishing flowers is well known all over the world. I want to see what other tricks he can play to please people. Those who are capable will lead the lonely army to the north to guard the country. The hero charged this unwarranted crime of treason, ransacked this Prince An's mansion, and snatched him away. Let's wait and see what people in the world will say! "

This shocking speech was completed in one go, Xiao Qi didn't care how the outsiders reacted, he just turned around and left, shouting: "Close the door!"

The vermilion gate of Prince An's Mansion was closed tightly, and the guards around were silent, waiting for the next order.

Although the words cannot be said, everyone has a steelyard in their hearts. The stunning beauty next to the prince just now is indeed worthy of being a rare thing in the world. When various thoughts arise, they are out of control. Shocked and gossip eyes.

Cui Chenglin's expression turned extremely ugly, and he hastily thought of a trick to set the blame on him, in fact, because he was [-] to [-]% sure that Chonglou was the assassin from the Shangyuan Festival.

Although he didn't have full evidence on his side, he expected that the other party would not be able to produce counter-evidence. Once the matter was knocked to death, it would not only settle the Queen's matter, but also beat Xiao Qi. The opponent is stubbornly resisting, and it is of course best for him to take the opportunity to kill the grass and roots. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone, which is an excellent plan.

But he never expected that Xiao Qi immediately countered with a counterattack, falsely accusing the emperor of coveting Chonglou's beauty, and twisting this serious crime of assassination and treason into a love affair between brothers. Now, even if he categorically denies it, he probably won't be able to stop the spread of rumors, unless he can kill all the imperial guards present today, then he can stop the rumors.

He hated and became angry, and when he spoke again, he had poured all his inner energy into it, and the eunuch's extremely feminine tone spread to all corners.

"Stubborn! Xiao Qi, I don't think you are a cover-up. It is clear that you are the mastermind behind the scenes. First you assassinated the emperor, and now you killed the queen and the emperor's heir. You really succeeded. Don't you want the world to change hands? You are simply planning to usurp the throne and kill your own brother! Someone, break open the gate and attack the mansion, leaving no one behind!"

A moment later, the door shattered, and the sound of shouting and killing resounded throughout. Xiao Qi dragged Chu Gui to speed up his pace, and quickly arrived at the secret room of the study. When the mechanism was opened, the stairs leading to the dark prison appeared in front of him.

He pushed the person in, "Go quickly, there is a secret passage at the end of the dark prison leading directly to the outskirts of the city."

Chu Gui returned his hand in disbelief and pulled him back: "I'm alone? What are you thinking? How could I go alone?"

Xiao Qi spoke very quickly: "What if you catch me, can you really be a killer? You are different. In order to prove the crime, you must die without a doubt, so that there can be no proof of death. Stop talking nonsense, say a few more words, and turn around No one can go."

These words are all right, but it is rare for Chu Gui to lose his temper, and his hands became stronger, and he directly grabbed his arms, pulled him in front of him, and said through gritted teeth: "Didn't you hear that sentence just now?" ? We can't beat Cui Chenglin even if we are tied together, you don't want to leave me alone to take risks."

After saying this, Xiao Qi remained unmoved, while holding Chu Gui's hand and began to break free, while staring at him, as if he wanted to keep him in his eyes forever.

Chu Gui suddenly realized: "Fuck! You want to block him alone and let me run? What a fart! I don't believe that the two of us plus Wuming can't beat him. Even if we can't beat him, I will drag him to death He died together!"

Just talking about Wuming, Chu Gui saw that he had quietly slipped behind Xiao Qi, but it wasn't Wuming, it was another Xiao Qi.

When he was stunned for a moment, the guy had already taken advantage of the time when the two were entangled and had no time to look around, and he touched Xiao Qi's dizziness point with one finger.

When the tall body fell limply in his arms, Chu Gui couldn't react for a while, and stared at him with astonishment.

Nameless looked impatient: "Hurry up, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, what time is it and you still have sticky thoughts..."

As soon as the words fell, the man directly dragged and pushed Chu Gui and the two into the secret passage, then quickly stuffed a stick of fire into his hand, and then completely closed the stone door.

Chu Gui was silent for a while in the dark, all five senses were lost, only the warm body of the person in his arms reminded him that he was still in the world.

He suppressed the emotions in his heart, turned on the fire, bent down and carried the sleepy Xiao Qi on his shoulder, and went down the stairs.

The hustle and bustle above his head gradually receded, but the heat in the corners of his eyes slowly accumulated. Every time he took a step, he silently recited a name in his heart.

"Wuming, Zhao Cheng, Fanghua, Fangcao... Momo"

Arriving at the dark prison where he stayed for one night, he finally realized the feeling Xiao Qi had when he was imprisoned here that day. Since he entered the palace, began to accept and got used to everything here, he was no longer nothing. A wild ghost, but a real and thorough person who has cared about him.

With a slight pause in his steps, he lifted Xiao Qi on his back up, making his back more stable, suppressing all his thoughts, and speeding up his figure.

……

The [-]th day of June, the tenth year of Kunyuan in Dading Kingdom, is destined to be a day that shocks the whole country and causes an uproar among the people.

On this day, His Majesty the Emperor lost his long-awaited Dragon Heir, the empress fell into a long-term coma due to excessive grief, and the culprit, King An Xiaoqi, was executed overnight, without even considering his status as a royal family member, in order to plot against him. Sin was whipped to death in the square in front of the Asahi Temple, and the description of the tragedy frightened a group of civil servants on the spot, and even the guards on the turret could smell the anger after incontinence.

This is the official statement, but there are rumors from somewhere. It is said that this is not the case. It turns out that the emperor and King An competed for the oiran to re-enter the real fire, which led to brothers killing each other.

The peerless beauty of Chonglou is the lifeblood of His Royal Highness An, and even lost the favor of Wanhua Kingdom for him. Naturally, he refused to give in. So the emperor made up a crime and insisted on robbing his brother-in-law. This matter was so angry that she had a miscarriage, and she fell unconscious just now.

This version is obviously more sensational than the official one, and it has more dissemination power. Within two days, it has already been heard on the streets.

When the news reached the prime minister's mansion, Jiang Huairen's illness became worse due to the successive blows, but the [-]th day of Jianghuai Wu's death had come, and he was still holding on to his sickness, and summoned Gao Tong to the mourning hall, where the coffin was buried. Only slightly opened a corner, and the intoxicating smell of alcohol dissipated, Jiang Huairen was so angry that he fainted on the ground before he could say a word.

As a result, there was another piece of gossip in Shangducheng's private discussion. The prime minister suffered a stroke due to excessive grief over what happened to his beloved daughter, and he had already written a letter to beg for the bones and planned to retire and return home.

Five days later, at Yuquan Villa on the outskirts of the city.

Xiao Qi put on a fake face with beards, and gave a big gift to the middle-aged man who looked like a butler in front of him, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Fu Yin, for me. This kindness will be remembered in my heart. There is no need to say more. Let's see what happens in the future." .”

The middle-aged man returned a salute, and replied: "Your Majesty, I will definitely bring these words to you. Mr. Cheng also said that the ban on entering and leaving the city in Shangdu will not be lifted until ten days after the Northern Expedition Army's squadron. Please rest assured." Don’t be impatient, safety comes first.”

Xiao Qi nodded slightly and thanked again, the man clasped his hands together, said goodbye and turned to leave.He placed one hand on the jade coffin that had just been delivered, and remained silent for a while.

Chu Gui secretly sighed in his heart, and did not step forward to disturb him, but went out of the hall first to make preparations for the sacrifice.

In the evening, not far from the villa, on the top of a mound near the mountains and rivers, a new tomb was added, with four large characters written in hand on a simple wooden tablet.

"Xiao Hu's Tomb"

The author has something to say: Xiao Qi: You protect me in this life, and I will protect you in the next life, brother, go well.
