Reincarnation of the powerful minister

This daring posture was maintained for a long time, Su Yan was restrained by a pair of young and enthusiastic arms, feeling a little tight in the chest and short of breath.

He had no choice but to pull the prince's arm, and said in embarrassment: "Your Highness, it's fine..."

Zhu Helin's chin was resting on his shoulder, and his heart was still throbbing -- not just the throbbing, but the back wave pushing the front wave.

After thinking about it for a while, Qinghe is comfortable to hold, neither soft nor hard, just right in the hand.

After another wave, Hou Lang thought again, his body smells good too, like the scent of Lingling incense in the palace, and it is more fresh and ethereal, I don't know if it is incense or dew.

On weekdays, when I smell the scent of incense on the ministers, I feel feminine, but why does it smell so good on Qinghe?

The more he thought about it, the more he scratched his heart, Zhu Helin couldn't help asking: "What kind of incense do you use?"

Su Yan was taken aback by his thoughtless question, "No, I didn't wear perfume... Oh, it smells like soap."

The ancients were fond of using incense and believed in "fragrance nourishing nature". From planting herbs to wearing sachets, the Song Dynasty invented the distillation method to extract fragrance dew. , Substitute tea, make snacks.

In his previous life, Su Yan was always a man who didn't even use aftershave lotion, and now he is not used to applying toilet water, so he uses the "Xiangyuan soap" that the boy bought at the market, and specially picked the one that sounds the least greasy. "Grass" smell.

Who knows that this "pai grass" is actually Lingxiang, also known as Manshanxiang, Guanglingxiang, and Linglingxiang.But I bought everything, and bought a large stack at a cheaper price in group buying, and I couldn't throw it away, so I had to make do with it.

He felt ashamed when asked by the prince, so he quickly pushed him away and coughed a few times.

Zhu Helin let go, still a little bit reluctant to part, "If Qinghe likes it, there are many high-quality fragrances in the palace, and there are all kinds of fragrances. I will give you a few bottles later."

I!No!use!fragrant!water!I just want Shanghai brand sulfur soap!Su Yan politely declined with a smile on his face, and said: "Your Highness should go, if the emperor finds out that you are not there later, I'm afraid I will look for you everywhere."

Zhu Helin nodded, straightened his clothes, took two steps, and stared back at Su Yan's waist.

"I just found out that you changed your belt, it wasn't this one before noon."

Su Yan: "?!"

"...It's this one."

"No." Zhu Helin said affirmatively, "It's also a fifth-grade silver 钑花. When you came to the Eastern Palace in the morning, I saw it was a soft cloth belt with only a piece of silver in front. Now it has become a hard leather belt, inlaid A full circle of belts. When did you change your belt?"

Su Yan's face turned green.The soft belt that was originally worn was used by King Yu as a prop for SM... Bah, it was a tool of illegal detention, and it was left in the abode.The new one was pulled off by Qianhu Shen Qi from her body to cover him up.

After returning to Sheliuchang, no one noticed this inconspicuous little detail, but now the carefree prince noticed it. What is it called, Zhang Fei's needle is thick and thin?

"You came to Dongyuan in the same car with me, and you didn't bring spare clothes and accessories. Where did this come out?" Zhu Helin suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up with fire, his voice was also quite sharp, and he asked questions like a cannonball , "What are you doing to untie your belt? Who gave you this one? Who did you give that one to? With which shameless person did you give or receive it in secret!"

A drop of cold sweat dripped down Su Yan's back, and he said calmly, "Your Highness, don't let your imagination run wild. What's the matter of 'privately giving and receiving'? It's about the defense of men and women. Your Highness should study hard, read serious scriptures, and don't blindly read those folk tales. Otherwise, if the grand tutors find out, His Highness will be punished for copying the Four Books and Five Classics."

Zhu Helin was even more angry: "I used 'Your Highness' three times in two sentences, and suddenly I was so polite, it's not because I have a guilty conscience! Don't tell me, okay, I will find out by myself, and I want him to look good!"

Su Yan smiled wryly: "There is no one in the hall! It was because when I was learning how to shoot in the forest, my belt was caught by a branch and I couldn't find it. That's why the lady in the palace randomly found one for temporary use."

Zhu Helin stared and said: "You really think I'm a brat, you can fool me at will! Where can the maid find the belt of a fifth-rank official? Well, as the prince's attendant, instead of accompanying the prince to study and practice martial arts, go hook up with your colleagues Come on, do you still want to be beaten by the imperial staff again!"

When he mentioned the court stick, Su Yan's butt hurt reflexively, and his face was not very good-looking. He answered calmly: "Your Highness wants to give me a court stick because of a belt?"

Seeing that he was unhappy, Zhu Helin was a little flustered again, and his tone softened: "No, I'll just scare you... Sigh, Qinghe, don't you want to be with others, okay?"

Su Yan raised his forehead: "Where did you learn the word 'Melon Field and Li Xia'? Recently, you secretly went out of the palace to buy a new script? The last time "Hanlin Fengyue" has not been remembered long? Really want me Will you suffer from the imperial staff again?"

"I really didn't get the erotic picture of Laoshizi. Someone framed me. You know it!" Zhu Helin blushed and yelled. Monk Du Liucui of the Ming Dynasty and Zhang Shunmei's Lantern Night Desire, although they are not obscene, they are also very fragrant, and with a guilty conscience, the yelling became weaker, "I'm just...just..."

He took two steps forward, and poked the silver belt on Su Yan's belt with his fingers angrily: "Pick it off! Use mine!"

"Your Highness, please spare my life!" Su Yan sighed and slapped his hand away.

Of course Zhu Helin knew that misuse of imperial artifacts was a death penalty beyond the law, and most of his anger was vented at the moment, feeling dull, muttering a newly learned phrase in a low voice: "Attracting bees and butterflies..."

Su Yan almost laughed angrily.

Said ironically: "Let's go, my lord! Turn back, the emperor will block us in this room, and he will punish us for the crime of 'secret communication'!"

Zhu Helin was taken aback for a moment, his face was flushed red, he ignored him, shook his sleeves, and strode away.

Back at Sheliuchang, Su Yan saw that the sun was setting to the west, and it would be dark in more than an hour.

Just when Yu Jia came out of Longde Hall, Emperor Jinglong looked happy, probably because he had a new young son, and he felt very relieved.

Su Yan hurriedly inserted himself into the crowd, and buried himself quietly.

And Jin Yiwei, who was ordered to search for the murder weapon, also came back at this time to report that in a remote grass, he found a shallow pit that had been dug up and buried indiscriminately, and inside was a blood-stained dagger.As he said, he put the sword on the white cloth and presented it.

This sword is only nine inches long, and the hair is blown and broken. The lines on the sword body are twists and turns, uneven.The end of the sword's edge is close to the sword, and there is a character "hook" engraved in seal script, which indicates that the sword was made by the master swordsmith Shangguan Gou, because the style is imitated from the fish intestine sword designed to assassinate King Liao of Wu, also known as "hook fish". intestinal".

When the emperor saw the sword, his eyes darkened and cooled down.

Among the six important ministers who were watching, one of them blurted out, "Isn't this the favorite sword of His Royal Highness King Yu?"

Last year when King Yu celebrated his birthday, Shangguan Gou personally presented three swords as a congratulatory gift, one of which was this "hooked fish sausage", which was seen by all those celebrating his birthday.The king of Yu loved the three swords. Seeing the small size of the fish intestines, he carried them with him. Except when he went to the palace to face the king, he never left his body at other times. Everyone in the court knew it.

The emperor called King Yu to approach him, pointed at the sword and asked, "Is this your sword?"

King Yu looked calm, and replied, "It's my brother's sword."

"Why was it stained with blood and buried in the pit?"

"Chendi has given this sword to Ye Donglou. I really don't know what will happen after that."

"When was it given?"

"...it's noon today."

In other words, before Ye Langzhong was assassinated and fell from the building, King Yu accidentally gave him a sword?Afterwards, it was found that the sword was stained with blood and was discarded, and it matched the size of the wound on the abdomen of the deceased?The officials present were whispering, but no one dared to speak out.

Wang Tirui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, stepped forward at this moment.This sixty-year-old minister has a neck as long as a crane and a slightly stooped waist. His description is not very beautiful, but he is known for his strict law enforcement and integrity.

He cupped his hands and said: "The sword is stained with blood, it is suspected to be a murder weapon, and it was given to Ye Langzhong. His Royal Highness Prince Yu may have something to do with this matter. I hope that His Majesty will not favor personal interests and thoroughly investigate this case!"

Emperor Jinglong knew that this old official had been law enforcement for many years, and he had always spoken straight and straight, and he was not angry about things and people, so King Yu immediately retorted: "Even if this sword is a murder weapon, it can't prove that it is related to the lonely king. Could it be that the murderer pulled out the sword worn by Dong Lou and stabbed him back?"

"In addition to the murder weapon, there is also a motive. Your Highness has a very close relationship with Ye Langzhong. Needless to say, there is something hidden inside. How can there be no hooking up? At least it is a suspicion." Wang Tirui held the crane's neck and confronted each other.

King Yu smiled disdainfully, instead of arguing with him, he bowed his hands to the emperor: "My brother is very sad about Ye Donglou's death, but I have a clear conscience. Brother Huang should know my brother's innocence."

Emperor Jing Long said indifferently: "Whether it's a coincidence or an affair, both parties have to produce conclusive evidence to prove that the other party is guilty, or that they themselves are not guilty. If they can't produce evidence, then it's a long-term plan."

These words were obviously impartial, but in the final analysis, they still favored King Yu.The murderer was nowhere to be seen, King Yu insisted that the sword had been given away, so where did he go to find conclusive evidence?However, Wang Tirui faced up to the difficulties, and said ironically: "Then please His Royal Highness Prince Yu to produce physical or personal evidence to prove that he has nothing to do with this case."

King Yu took a deep breath and looked at the emperor.

The emperor looked back at him calmly, without making a sound.

After all, he still refused to cover his case for him, did he want to take advantage of this matter to beat him up so that he would not provoke the courtiers again in the future?King Yu closed his eyes, snorted coldly in his heart, and said, "I have a witness."

Wang Shangshu forcefully asked: "Who?"

"The Bureau of Economics and Economics washes the horses, the prince reads them, Su Yan."

Su Yan was lowering his head, crushing the ants on the ground with the soles of his shoes, when he suddenly heard his name mentioned, he raised his head subconsciously, meeting the deep and cold eyes cast by King Yu.

At this moment, he seemed to hear King Yu's heartfelt voice, with stereo reverberation effect: My dear, you have to testify for this king, otherwise you will also be dragged into the water, and we will see who is more unlucky in the end.

I am already unlucky enough to have such a shameless prince like you!Su Yan sighed deeply in his heart, and had no choice but to stand out: "I testify for His Royal Highness King Yu. At noon, His Highness ordered his ministers to shoot arrows, and he was in the woods behind Longde Hall. Soon I became drunk and vomited continuously. Your Highness kindly helped me to go to bed. Rest at home. Ye Langzhong came to the jingshe at this time and talked with His Highness. His Highness took out the Yuchang Sword on the spot and gave it to Ye Langzhong. I didn't want to disturb the two of them, so I left on my own and returned to Sheliuchang. What happened after that , I don’t know.”

He spoke grandiosely, but most of the courtiers were kind-hearted, so they couldn't help thinking to themselves: This Su Qinghe is so handsome, he is a bit more beautiful than Ye Donglou.Then how did Ye Donglou "talk" when he rushed to the Abode?Could it be the love debt between the three parties, entangled?

The gazes cast on Su Yan immediately were full of indescribable ambiguous prying intent.

Su Yan was furious, and looked at Emperor Jing Long, seeing that although his expression was calm as usual, there seemed to be an undercurrent in his eyes, which was a sign of displeasure in the dragon's heart. Knowing that the emperor could not be counted on to save the situation, he sighed silently.

King Yu looked directly at Wang Tirui, and raised his voice: "Wang Shangshu accuses the banished lonely king of being suspected of murder, is there any real evidence?"

Wang Tirui had no choice but to bow his hands to him: "There is no other evidence yet, so I dare not accuse the royal relatives. The old minister just said that the prince may have something to do with this matter, if not, it's best, the clearer will be cleared."

At this moment, Feng Qu'e, the Commander of the Jin Yiwei, came forward with a long wooden box in his hands, and said: "Here are the courtyard paintings sealed by the Emperor's orders."

Emperor Jing Long nodded and said: "Open the box to inspect the painting, I want to see, just before the incident, who was missing in this scene?"

Feng Qu'e unsealed and opened the box, and Jin Yiwei immediately unfolded several scrolls on the steps one by one. The emperor led all the officials to lean over to take a closer look.

One of them depicts the scene of the crown prince winning and receiving thanks.

Judging from the painting, the position of the painter should be at a higher place, condescending, so that everyone in the willow shooting field can see everything in a glance.

This is the handwriting of Shangpu Shang Lianzhou, a well-known contemporary artist. He is especially good at painting figures, with vigorous brushwork, grand scenes, exquisite workmanship, bright colors, and lifelike clothing.

Su Yan suddenly remembered that he had seen this master's "Mingxuan Emperor Hunting Picture" in the Forbidden City in his previous life. It is really a national treasure!I didn't expect to see the real work of this big man, it was still freshly released, and I couldn't help feeling excited.

Then a minister exclaimed, and the surging heart of the teacher suddenly rolled back, covering his head and face and throwing him on all fours.

The man shouted: "Look at the auxiliary building, isn't one of those two people Ye Langzhong?!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately realized, could it be that the other one is the murderer, who happened to be in the painting at the right time?They all probed to see.

I saw Ye Donglou in the painting wearing civilian uniform, leaning his back on the fence, seeing clearly from the front, his expression was quite normal.As for the person facing him, with his back to the outside of the painting, he is dressed in a bamboo blue dress, with red and orange Sihe wishful cloud patterns on the hem, and a pattern of persimmon stalks on the upper body and python makeup flowers on the shoulders, which is gorgeous. And chic.

Su Yan looked at this attire, and it looked very familiar.

Suddenly, everyone around him was staring at him.

He looked down at himself in some astonishment, and there was a circle of wishful-looking cloud patterns intertwined with red and orange on the hem of his clothes...

"The person in the painting opposite Ye Langzhong by the fence is Su Shidu." Wang Shangshu pointed to Su Yan's clothes, and said in a deep voice, "This is the most conclusive evidence. From this, it can be deduced that he did it for him just now." The evidence given by His Royal Highness King Yu is completely invalid. One of the two is the original owner of the murder weapon, and the other is at the scene of the crime. If you insist that there is no suspicion, how can we be convinced? Your Majesty also asks for an adjudication!"
