Meiqiang miserably uses herself as a substitute

: "You are the fourth prince, you can't be a general, you want to grab the crown prince."

Only one person said to him: "Go grab a general, grab the crown prince, you can't."

Ah Deaf laughed and said, "The only one who can say that is Mr. Bai."

Xiao Zhan also smiled: "Yes. Fortunately, I had already fallen in love with him at that time, otherwise I would have been pissed off when I heard that. My temper at that time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice gave him large and small punishments all over again. possible."

Ah Deaf said: "Fortunately not, otherwise His Highness would regret it now."

"I also regret it now." Xiao Yan looked at the man in the portrait, and said lightly, "I regret not teaching him a few words."

He closed his eyes, as if he was talking to himself: "I don't know... who taught him his later writing..."

He paused, killing intent flashed in his eyes, "Which dog man taught it?"

Ah Deaf couldn't help laughing: "What if Mr. Bai taught himself?"

Xiao Li immediately changed his words: "Then he is too smart. Such a smart person fell into my hands..."

"He's right." Xiao Zhan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled lightly: "I still earn."

The author has something to say:

Love you guys--

13. Chapter 13

Xie Yan made up for it and slept until dinner time.Rather than waking up from sleep, it is better to say being awakened by the fragrance.

He opened his eyes, looked sideways, and saw that there was already a table of delicacies on the desk.Think again about what I ate in prison.

Xie Yan: Xiao Zhan is really not human.

Xiao Yan seemed to see what he was thinking, "better than the jailer."

Xie Yan: "..."

He got up and sat on the stool, picked up the chopsticks and put them down without seeing anything, and there was something in his words: "Little Phoenix's food is naturally better than those crawling on the ground."

Ah Deaf: "..."

Xiao Li, who was crawling on the ground, tried his best to maintain a smile: "Eat."

Xie Yan glanced at him and concentrated on eating.

Xiao Yan didn't move his chopsticks, he rested his hand on his head to watch him eat, after a while, he said calmly, "Old Zhizhou Fan is gone."

Xie Yan's hand stretched out to pick up the vegetables paused for a second, and the piece of meat fell back: "Oh."

That way the food was far away from him, and he couldn't hold it stably. Xiao Li picked up the chopsticks and put the piece of meat into his bowl.

Xiao Yan continued to watch him eat, with clear eyes and a faint smile.

Xie Yan ate the piece of meat, and made a brief comment: "That...Fan Ming is miserable."

Xiao Zhan: "What is he afraid of? His second brother will help with cooking."

Xie Yan was curious: "He still has a second brother?"

Xiao Zhan: "It's not my own brother, but I recognize it."

Xie Yan sighed: "That's his second brother's misfortune."

Fan Ming's actions depended entirely on Fan Laozhizhou, and his current contacts were also accumulated from Fan Laozhizhou. Now the family's affairs, large and small, are all on his shoulders...but with his courage, I'm afraid he won't be able to accomplish anything.

There is a high probability that his second brother helped him take care of Fan Lao Zhizhou's funeral.

Xie Yan: "Then his elder brother won't help?"

The eldest brother and the second brother are together, and the second brother can also be easier.

Xiao Zhan said: "His elder brother is General Zhenyuan, he is not free."

Xie Yan sighed: "The Shen family."

"This backer recognizes it well."

Xiao Yan suddenly smiled: "Your backer also recognizes you well."

Ah Deaf: "..."

He realized something was wrong, saluted and backed out.

Xie Yan's smile froze for a moment, and he withdrew the hand he had just stretched out.

Xie Yan deliberately said: "What's so good? The second elder brother helps take care of the funeral, how about you? You can only bite Little Phoenix."

Xiao Zhan said indifferently: "You can also bite it back."

He added: "Or...do you have any relatives? I can also help you with the funeral. "

These words hit Xie Yan's heart, he put down his chopsticks, lowered his eyes, and did not speak.

Xiao Li asked, "Don't you want to eat?"

Xie Yan said softly: "It's not tasty, don't eat it."

Xie Yan stood up, unable to detect any emotion, he pursed his lips and said, "Tomorrow...I want to eat dog meat."

Xiao Yan suppressed his smile, looked at the young man's back, and his heart suddenly sank.

He replied: "Okay."

night……

Xiao Yan had a good eye, he knew that the topic of relatives had hurt Xie Yan, so he consciously went to the study.

Others can coax, but Little Phoenix can't.He wanted to tell himself about Little Phoenix's past.

Xie Yan was lying on the bed, unable to fall asleep no matter what.Partly because of getting enough sleep during the day, and partly because of what Xiao Li said at dinner.

Unable to fall asleep, he simply put on his clothes and climbed onto the roof.He was lying on the roof tiles, staring at the moon in a daze.

Fan Xiaozhizhou's relatives are gone, so he should cry for a long time... It can be seen that his eyes were swollen during the time at Changsheng Restaurant, so he must have cried for a long time.

Xie Yan doesn't know what it's like to lose a loved one, nor has he ever tasted crying because of excessive grief.

Just listen to humanity, it will hurt.

He knew his loved ones were in the red tide, but who?

he does not know.

Maybe he was still alive and became the assassin of that day, narrowly escaped death.Maybe he was killed when performing a mission.

Perhaps it was the Red Tide traitors... the group of people he watched die with his own eyes...

To this day, every time the red tide is mentioned, Xie Yan's heart hurts and his body trembles imperceptibly.

There, it is probably a purgatory on earth.

Those who came out of there were probably not human beings.

It's a monster...

Xie Yan stretched out his hand to block the moon in front of him, he didn't want to think about Chi Chao and his relatives anymore.

With moonlight shining between his fingers, Xie Yan withdrew his hand, laughed at himself in a cold voice, then calmed down, and said lightly: "I'm back."

After a while, the person in the distance jumped onto the roof: "Master."

Xie Yan joked: "I found it very quickly this time."

Su Ci was a little embarrassed: "It's spread all over the outside world... The master was kissed by the fourth prince..."

Xie Yan: "Stop."

Su Ci was dumb, and paused: "Master, did the fourth prince tell you about the late emperor?"

Xie Yan sat up: "Why did he tell me this? He didn't even give birth at that time, what do you know?"

Su Ci thought to himself: What if Emperor Mingde told him something.

Xie Yan: "What did you find?"

Su Ci said: "Didn't you say before that after the first emperor defeated Beiyi, he often suffered from headaches, and the national teacher gave him medicine."

Xie Yan nodded.

Su Ci continued: "The first emperor died unexpectedly. It was rumored that he had lung disease, coughed frequently, and finally coughed up blood until he died. But in fact, the first emperor died of a headache.

The bloodstains that those palace people saw on the ground later were the blood that the late emperor hit himself on the table after suffering from unbearable headaches, not the blood he coughed up. "

Xie Yan was thoughtful: "The imperial palace is heavily guarded. The emperor's bedroom has guards in the open and in the dark. Could it be that the hidden guards wouldn't notice the late emperor's yelling when he was in pain, and the act of bumping into the table?"

Su Ci: "I'm also wondering about this. But this is what I learned from a retired old doctor. The late emperor had a cough, but the disease was not enough to cough up blood, let alone death. And the late emperor had no symptoms of coughing up blood before his death. , it was that day when the interdental bleeding suddenly..."

Xie Yan: "The old doctor is still there?"

Su Ci: "The most coincidental thing is this. I was planning to ask more questions today, but the old doctor's hands and feet are inconvenient. When carrying water yesterday, he overturned the basin and slipped to the ground. His head was severely injured and he passed away."

He thought for a while, and said: "On the surface, it was a slip, but the old doctor never carried the water basin on weekdays, and asked his son to help him. So I think that this water basin is an illusion, and maybe someone deliberately put it on the water basin. Sprinkle water on the ground and push the old doctor to the ground."

Xie Yan raised his eyes, and his heart moved: "This means that what the old doctor said is true."

Su Ci nodded, thinking of something: "The old doctor said that the late emperor drank more medicine that day..."

Su Ci came to a sudden: "There is a problem with the medicine given to the late emperor by the national teacher!"

Xie Yan: "You said that the late emperor was killed by hitting himself on the table, so why did he cough up blood and die in the end?"

Su Ci: "It's an illusion deliberately made by someone... just like that old doctor."

Xie Yan continued: "Dark guards are everywhere, if someone comes in from the outside, it is impossible for the dark guards to not notice."

Su Ci added: "On the day of the accident, the doors and windows were closed, and there was no sign of anyone breaking in."

Xie Yan smiled: "Yes. How can there be such a powerful person in the world? Even the Red Tide Palace Master may not be able to do it."

Su Ci seemed to understand a little bit: "Is that the original person in the bedroom?"

Xie Yan nodded and asked Su Ci: "When is the easiest time for a person to be careless?"

Su Ci's ears were reddish.

A smile flashed across Xie Yan's eyes, and he said softly, "Yes."

"On the day the late emperor died, he called a concubine to attend the bed. He was afraid that he would fall ill during his actions, so he drank a little more. Unexpectedly, it backfired and accelerated the illness. The late emperor couldn't bear the pain, so he directly hit him to death."

"Since there's something wrong with the medicine, the reason why the concubine didn't say anything when she saw it was because she already knew about it."

"She knew that there was something wrong with the medicine, so she waited for the late emperor to bump into it, and then faked the appearance of the late emperor coughing up blood...Just say that the blood on the head was accidentally knocked by the late emperor when he coughed up blood... If a An ordinary concubine should be scared to death seeing this scene, how can she calm down and do this?"

Su Ci had doubts: "Who ordered that concubine? The national teacher? The national teacher was already dead at that time."

Xie Yan didn't answer right away, he stood up, thought for a moment, then turned his head and said to Su: "That concubine... probably is the same person who assassinated the national teacher."

Su Ci was surprised: "How is it possible?"

Xie Yan frowned: "Why is it impossible? The national teacher had an affair with the concubine, the national teacher chose to trust the concubine, and told the concubine everything including the plan to seize the right talisman."

"The national teacher was deeply trusted by the late emperor. As long as the national teacher is promoted, the late emperor will naturally raise the rank of the concubine. The concubine will have more opportunities to get close to the emperor, and the national teacher will naturally be easy to use."

"It's just that I didn't expect that the concubine is also a vicious
