The Road of the Queen

"My lord..." Yin Yuting knelt on the jade floor tiles of Tingxue Pavilion, in front of him was a teacup that had been broken into several pieces.In fact, Yin Yuting was worried about this when he was in Xiyuan study, and now it really came true.

"Yin Liulang, where did the "Tongjian of Youguo" go?" Li Chunqiu smiled, with a dark expression on his face.

At this time, Liu Zihuan, who was standing behind King Cheng, said: "My lord, have you lost your precious book? Could it be... related to Yin Liulang?" Liu Zihuan trotted to Tingxue Pavilion as soon as he heard the news. Shang Zhuo Jingzhi escorted Yin Yuting with two guards.

Hearing Li Chunqiu's question, Yin Yuting raised his head, his snow-white face was slightly stiff, and his dark eyes showed disbelief: "What the prince said is that I stole the "Youguo Tongjian" .”

"Just now, this king and you saw that book in Xiyuan's study, and it disappeared within an hour. You said it wasn't you, could it be this king?" Li Chunqiu said these words calmly and clearly.

Yin Yuting sneered: "My lord is labeling himself indiscriminately. What conclusive evidence is there to prove that he is a minister?"

Liu Zihuan looked left and right, the corners of his lips drooped slightly as he always smiled, and he said cautiously to Li Chunqiu: "Only Wang Ye and Zhuo Jingzhi know where that book is hidden, maybe it's a misunderstanding." From time to time, the brown eyes flicked around on Zhuo Jingzhi's blue face.

Li Chunqiu turned his face to him and said: "Yin Liulang also knows, it was Jingzhi who slipped his mouth."

Liu Zihuan nodded, carefully observed Li Chunqiu's face, but did not dare to say another word.

Yin Yuting, who was kneeling on the ground, frowned when he heard this.

Li Chunqiu said to Yin Yuting: "After reading the contents of that book, it is inevitable for Yin Liulang to be moved by the gold and silver treasures mentioned in the book. Well, as long as you admit that you stole "Youguo Tongjian" Yes, this king will generously send it to you, and will not pursue the whereabouts of this book."

The red mole on the center of Yin Yuting's eyebrows became more and more seductive, and a sinister and cold light flashed in his black eyes: "Then, instead of pursuing the whereabouts of the book, the prince came to pursue the fate of the minister, right?"

Li Chunqiu narrowed his eyes, his face was not as calm as before, his bright red lips were a little pale, and there was an imperceptible murderous look in his peach eyes: "Yin Liulang, it seems that you have enough wisdom to judge your own death."

Yin Yuting knelt and crawled two steps forward, his knee accidentally landed on the broken porcelain stubble, and bright red blood dripped through his brocade trousers.The thick black eyes stared at the superior Li Chunqiu for a moment and said: "If the prince wants the minister's life, the minister will not even frown. If the prince still does not want the minister's life, then please give the minister a washout." Opportunity to be wronged!" He rolled his eyes, bowed his head and said, "Please give me three days, and I will definitely catch the real book thief. If I can't catch you, the prince will kill me soon."

Li Chunqiu played with the thumb ring, glanced at Yin Yuting very covertly, said casually: "That's it." Then he waved his hand to Liu Zihuan.

Liu Zihuan understood, and hurried up to help Yin Yuting who was kneeling, and sent him out of Tingxue Pavilion after saying something neither soft nor hard.

"Jingzhi, you don't need to serve here, you can go back and rest." Li Chunqiu pinched his eyebrows.

Zhuo Jingzhi stood there numbly, his eyes were dull, as if he didn't hear Li Chunqiu's words.

Liu Zihuan happened to come in, and when he saw Zhuo Jingzhi standing there like a wooden stake, he sneered and said, "Don't you understand that my lord told you to go?"

Zhuo Jingzhi still didn't move.

Li Chunqiu finally raised his eyes to look at him, and said helplessly and softly: "Jingzhi, this king has something to say to Zihuan, why don't you go and rest for a while."

Zhuo Jingzhi finally reacted, he looked at Li Chunqiu and Liu Zihuan sadly and resentfully, then turned around and left silently.

Qionglin Court

The little servant A Cai hurried to Qionglinyuan with the medicine box.

Yin Yuting sat on the bed, his trousers rolled up above his knees.He had a lot of blood cuts from his knee to his calf, and the deepest wound on his knee was still bleeding.

Ah Cai yelled as soon as he entered the door: "Yin Liulang, how did you offend the prince?" While talking, he quickly gave the plaster and gauze to stop the bleeding from the medicine box.

Yin Yuting smiled wryly and didn't answer, just thanked him, thought for a while and asked, "How did you know I was injured?"

"It was Mr. Pei who asked the villain to come over to help Yin Liulang treat his injuries. Mr. Pei also said that it is inconvenient to be on business now, and he will come to see you at night."

After hearing this, Yin Yuting's eyes turned low. Of course, he knew Pei Qinggang's attitude towards him recently.

After the little servant A Cai left, Yin Yuting hurriedly put on his shoes and went to Xiyuan study.He held the door lock and checked it over and over again, almost crushing the lock.Then he checked the beams and roof of the study, the door and window steps, the desk chair, and even the four treasures of the study.

Back in Qionglinyuan, Yin Yuting thought in his heart: Judging from the situation at the scene, this "Tongjian of Youguo" probably grew wings and flew by itself.unless. . . .Unless it's a thief in Chengwang's mansion.

The sun has set, and the afterglow falls on the window.Dull gray, mild red.The restrained gold complement each other, and the orange clouds float in the sky layer by layer.

There was no lamp in the room, and it was pitch black when Pei Qinggang entered.He walked around the inner room and found no one, so he went up to the second floor in the dark, and just after walking up the steps, he saw Yin Yuting sitting in the study in a daze.

Yin Yuting's eyes were dark and deep, and his eyes fell on the window lattice.The window was open, and it was the sparkling lake with dark golden light under the setting sun.He clenched one hand into a fist and knocked on the table repeatedly, making a monotonous and dull sound.

"Yin Liulang." Pei Qinggang called out.

Yin Yuting turned his face and showed a gentle smile: "You are here. Thank you for letting Ah Cai come over to treat my wound." After speaking, he stood up and lit the candle.

The room gradually brightened up.The dim candlelight clearly reflected the facial features of the person.Pei Qinggang was surprised to find that Yin Yuting's face was dazzled by the candlelight as if carved by a skilled craftsman.That beauty mole was as bright red as a drop of blood, and it added a bit of femininity and charm to that handsome face.

"Ah Gang, don't stand there, come and have a drink with me." Yin Yuting woke up Pei Qinggang who was in a daze, and tapped the wine utensils on the table with his chin.

Pei Qinggang realized that he was staring at him in a daze, so he hurriedly said no thanks, and sat down with an unnatural expression on his face.

Yin Yuting didn't seem to notice Pei Qinggang's strange look, and while pouring him a glass of wine in a graceful manner, he said, "This is sake. It's very mellow. Try it."

In fact, Pei Qinggang wouldn't be in the mood to have a drink with him here.In the morning, Pei Qinggang heard rumors that Yin Yuting was reprimanded by the prince and knelt down to him, and the prince was furious.He asked those servants to inquire carefully, and learned that Yin Yuting was caught stealing books and was injured and other true and false news, so he asked A Cai to ask him to come to Qionglinyuan with a medicine box first, and then visit him after he finished his business.Xianxia finally pulled out and came here, he was eager to ask what happened, he pushed his glass and said anxiously: "Yin Liulang still has the heart to drink?"

Yin Yuting glanced at him, then turned his eyes back to the window lattice, and said slowly: "Ah Gang came to my place for the first time, but I have nothing to entertain you, so I will just drink this bar."

Pei Qinggang was really anxious, and snatched the wine glass from Yin Yuting's hand and threw it on the table: "Yin Liulang! What's going on! I heard that you stole the prince's treasure book? I heard that you were punished by the prince to kneel? Is there any other injury besides the leg? Is the prince really going to kill you?"

Yin Yuting let out a chuckle: "Hey, hey, you ask so many questions with one mouth, where should I start answering you?"

Pei Qinggang stared and bared his teeth: "You don't have the heart to laugh, you!"

You need to know the end, and I will break it down next time.
