"Xu Qian!" Wei Yuan's words were clear and his face was correct.

Emperor yuan Jing obviously didn't pay attention to the name of a small gong. He looked at Wei Yuan and was surprised that the big eunuch said the name of a gong in such a solemn tone.

"It's something that can be made. He found out the case of xiaoqiguan and Zhou Chixiong. He also pointed out the source of gunpowder." After drinking a cup of tea, emperor yuan Jingdi looked down at the chessboard and said:

"after so many days, what's his progress? I heard from Duke Liu that the boy went out early and came back late, and the eunuch of the record couldn't find him."

"I really found something," Wei Yuanshun said on the topic, "the magistrate of Zhao county in Taikang County died in the dungeon of the government early yesterday morning."

Emperor yuan Jing nodded: "Chen Fu Yin has already reported this matter."

Wei Yuan continued: "the cause of death is natural, no trauma, no poisoning, no asphyxiation and other external means. It's either the daomen Yin gods or the shamans in the northeast. "

Bang... The white son of emperor yuan Jing's fingertip fell on the chessboard.

The emperor, with thick black hair and crow's feet in the corner of his eyes, was silent for a few seconds. He picked up the falling chess piece with a smile, threw it into the chess box, and said:

"after so many years of playing, it's boring not to win once."

Wei Yuan got up and bowed.

The emperor turned his head to look at the prince and asked, "I heard that the day before yesterday the spirit dragon suddenly went mad and threw Lin'an into the lake?"

The prince bowed his head and replied, "at that time, Lin'an was riding a spirit dragon playing on the water. It was Huaiqing who whistled and disturbed the spirit dragon, and then he threw Lin'an into the water."

Prince and Princess Lin'an are a mother compatriot. Princess Huaiqing bullies Lin'an. As his direct brother, there is no problem in saying that.

Seeking truth from facts, but in his heart, he was slightly inclined to Lin'an. In his father's eyes, it was a kind of "simplicity".

Then, the prince added, "but a little bit of me always cared, but I didn't figure it out."

Emperor yuan Jingdi nodded his head and said, "the reaction of Linglong is too fierce."

In addition to being the Emperor himself, Linglong treats princes and daughters equally, including the prince.

Whether the prince or the prince, as long as he does not ascend the throne of the ninth five, it is essentially the same.

"Father, more than that." "The prince said:" the dragon not only threw away Lin'an, it was quite excited to swim to Huaiqing, and even hit the bank with its head, lying on the bank waiting for Huaiqing to ride

Yuan Jingdi's pupil suddenly burst out a sharp light, staring at the Prince: "Huaiqing riding?"

The prince shook his head: "strange is, when Huaiqing intends to ride, but the spirit dragon is extremely resistant to push back Huaiqing."

Hearing this explanation, Emperor Jing of Yuan Dynasty frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "I'm going to see the dragon."

Emperor Yuanjing left in his chariot.

The prince and Wei Yuan followed him up. Before entering the sedan chair, Wei Yuan asked casually, "Your Highness, who else was there besides Princess Huaiqing at that time?"

The eunuch nearby opened the curtain of the sedan chair. The prince didn't go in immediately. He turned back and said, "coincidentally, the Gong under Duke Wei's hand is also there."

Xu Qian... Wei Yuan was in the same place.

As far as the prince is concerned, a small Gong is nothing to care about. He will be remembered simply because the half poem is really amazing.

Otherwise, Huaiqing has so many confidants that the prince is too lazy to remember some unimportant minions.

Thinking of this, the prince opened the curtain and found that Wei Yuan was still standing in the same place.

"Won't Duke Wei go?"

Wei Yuan just reacted and followed him into the sedan chair.

The Prince did not put down the curtain and said with a smile, "but that Gong is really interesting. I never thought that a gong could be so talented. On that day, we held a banquet by the lake. In order to help Lin'an out of the siege, he wrote poems on the spot. "

The prince is telling me that the Gong under my hand is already the person of Princess Huaiqing. Wei Yuan doesn't care much and smiles. On the contrary, the last sentence aroused his interest and raised the curtain and said, "what poem did he write?"

No matter "don't worry about the future without a confidant, who in the world doesn't know the king", or "the shadow is horizontal, the water is shallow, and the fragrance is floating in the evening", in Wei Yuan's view, who is full of poetry and books, all of them are excellent works.

In the past two hundred years, every Dafeng scholar has a brilliant poet in his heart.

The prince said in a loud voice: "I don't know the sky is in the water when I'm drunk. The boat is full of clear dreams and the river of stars is under pressure!"

Good poem!! As soon as Wei Yuan's eyes brightened, he was deeply amazed by these two poems.

The prince waited in silence for a moment. As expected, he heard Wei Yuan's question coming from the sedan chair opposite him: "where's the first half?"

The prince's mouth picked: "no more."

No... Wei Yuan fell into silence.

Seeing the silence on the opposite side for a long time, the prince was in a good mood.

...

when Xu Qian entered the palace city, she met the eldest daughter of the emperor in the elegant garden of the eldest princess. She was wearing a beautiful palace dress with white background and red plum blossoms.Comb the most popular bun, insert the beautiful jewelry, set off the beautiful face.

After Princess Huaiqing asked the maids to watch tea, she said with a smile, "what's the progress of the case?"

Xu Qilong temple said: "some of the results of the investigation should be asked

Only yesterday, with the joint efforts of wenyuange, did they find out the rise and fall of Baota temple and its present inheritance. The princess asked for the information about Qinglong temple.

Wen Yan, Princess Huaiqing's eyes are bright, looking forward to Xu Qi'an.

So far, this little Gong has never let her down. She is first-class and has a keen sense of smell.

When she first recommended him to the watchman's Yamen, the eldest princess had the idea of taking him for her own use. However, in her expectation, the process was: observation, suggestion, kindness and solicitation.

Unexpectedly, Xu Qi'an was unexpectedly flexible and accomplished the last step ahead of schedule.

"When the xiaoqiguan case happened, his humble position used to observe Zhou Chixiong with the technique of looking at Qi. At that time, he was not abnormal. Now I know that it's a special magic weapon to shield lookout Qi.

"The minister ruled out several magic weapons in the palace and found that there was a magic weapon in Qinglong temple that could cover up the breath.

"Of course, it's not certain that Zhou Chixiong's magic weapon must belong to Qinglong temple."

The princess asked, "is that magic weapon still in Qinglong temple?"

Xu Qi'an shook his head: "I've lost my job long ago. I'm about to report it to the princess. About a year ago, a monk named Henghui in Qinglong Temple moved his heart, eloped with the female pilgrim, fled the capital, and stole the magic weapon."

Why did the princess elope immediately

This woman is really smart. She can point out the key to the problem. Xu Qi'an said: "this matter needs to be verified. Princess Chang is still needed to help with this matter."

"Me?" Delicate eyebrow tip picked to pick, she some accident.

"Does your highness know Princess Pingyang?" Xu Qian's words, like thunder in the long princess's mind, cold as jade carving's face for the first time revealed violent emotional fluctuations.

"Is it serious?" Her voice trembled slightly, her eyes fixed on Xu Qi'an.

"The abbot Panshu of Qinglong Temple revealed it to his humble position. It's true or false. We have to find out."

Bold assumption, careful verification, without evidence, he will not insist.

Princess Huaiqing didn't speak for a long time, and the Hall fell into silence. In the silence, she sighed gently:

"Pingyang is the daughter of King Yu and the cousin of the palace. You've met my third brother. He always regards himself as a scholar. Unlike other brothers and sisters, his enlightenment mentor is uncle Yuwang.

"Uncle Wang is a learned and versatile scholar. He once sat down to study in the great scholar Zhang Shen and was proficient in the art of war. He was once an official of the Ministry of war and even a minister. It is rumored that he will join the cabinet and compete for the first assistant."

It's impossible... Xu Qi'an doesn't believe that only scholars can enter the cabinet. Besides, the power of the first assistant is bigger than that of Wei Yuan. Can emperor Jingdi of Yuan rest assured that a prince will be the first assistant?

However, Xu Qi'an knew that he was not good at history, knew little about the situation in the court, and did not refute it on the spot.

"There is xungui group behind uncle Yuwang, who is in charge of the cabinet as xungui. There has been such an example before. And it's not an exception. " Princess Huaiqing patiently explained:

"since the beginning of the reign of Dafeng, Xun GUI has been pushed to the edge of the court, and has long been unable to compete for the position of first assistant."

So, is Yuwang the flag bearer promoted by xungui group? Behind the civil service group and Xun GUI group involved in the struggle?

Xu Qi'an's mind flickered.

Princess Huaiqing continued: "Princess Yu is a talented woman. Unfortunately, she has a poor reputation and only left a daughter for uncle Yu. Uncle Wang is a man of long love. So far, he has not set up another princess. He cherishes the child left by his dead wife.

"But more than a year ago, Pingyang suddenly disappeared. At that time, my father sent out the forbidden army to search the city, and most of the magicians of the sky warden sent out, but Pingyang was not found.

"It was a great blow to King Yu. Soon he was bedridden, depressed and ill, and the magicians of the sky warden were at a loss because it was hard to cure his heart disease."

While eating melons, Xu Qi'an digested the shocking news.

The Imperial Army searched all over the city. With the cooperation of the martial arts master, the whereabouts of Princess Pingyang still could not be found. Therefore, the magic weapon was needed to cover the breath, otherwise it would be difficult to take Princess Pingyang out of the capital.

No wonder Henghui wants to steal magic weapon. That's why.

They didn't speak for a long time, thinking about each other. After a long time, Princess Huaiqing sighed: "you continue to check, if you encounter trouble and can't get around the obstacles, just look for me."

Xu Qi'an nodded.

"By the way, I heard Lin'an looked for you yesterday?"

Xu seven an discovered that her Royal Highness's pupil darkened a lot.

It sounds like: did your ex come to you yesterday?

Xu Qi'an said helplessly: "yes, Princess Lin'an insisted that I take refuge in her and make a cow for her. And gave me a waist jade. "The princess hall was expressionless: "why not refuse what she did?"

Xu Qi'an said with a bitter smile, "Princess Lin'an said that if I don't agree, she would shout impoliteness."

Is that enough? You Royal sisters, I'm just a shrimp. What can I do.

Xu Qi'an thinks that the eldest princess is a mature woman who is considerate, tolerant and considerate, and will not chatter on about this little thing.

As a result...

The Princess revealed mercilessly: "with your intelligence, you should be able to see the threat of such bluff."

This woman's character is cold as ice on the outside but overbearing on the inside. Xu Qi'an looked at Princess Chang in surprise and quickly bowed his head: "I understand. I will give back my waist jade to Princess Lin'an and cut off contact with her.

From now on, only to your highness. "

I swear that from now on, I will end my friendship with you and only give you a chance!

The princess nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, the noise came from the outside.

"Second princess, you, you can't go in..."

"get out of here!"

Scream and pull sound, a red skirt bright figure into the hall, goose faced peach blossom eyes of Lin'an Princess glanced at the hall, sure enough, saw his loyal dog and never change to lick the former owner.

Suddenly, he burst into a rage. His small eyebrows stood up and his eyes widened. He said angrily, "dog slave, you dare to betray our palace. Who are you

Xu Qi'an sighed in his heart and subconsciously looked at the princess, hoping that she would come out and settle for herself.

Who knows the princess is a black, smiling at him, eyes as if to say: choose one.

PS: thanks to the leader of "boys want to" for the reward. He is also an old friend. What's more, don't care.
