"Are you playing with the palace?"

"Ice" a little bit up on the face of Princess Chen, her expression, her eyes, her tone is cold.

"You see," Xu Qi'an shrugged and sneered, "no matter how nice the pie painters say, as long as they make real efforts, they will turn their faces at once."

Fortunately, you didn't promise, otherwise I would rather be sad in Lin'an than bring you down.

Chen Guifei took a sip from her teacup. When she put it down, her face had returned to normal. "The biggest flaw in our palace is lang'er. As long as she's gone, she's dead without proof.

"And Fengqi palace is about to collapse. Mr. Xu is a wise man. You know how to choose

Xu Qi'an nodded with approval: "the prince is still the prince, and the queen is about to change her position. The empress promised to marry Lin'an to me... So I chose Duke Wei."

As soon as Chen Guifei's face stagnated, she held the tea cup with a little strength. It took her a long time to resist the impulse of pouring hot tea on the boy's face or dropping the cup.

"So Mr. Xu is going to take lang'er away from Jingxiu palace and kill him?"

Chen Guifei's beautiful eyes stare at Xu Qi'an. The atmosphere inside the room drops to the freezing point, and the invisible murderous opportunity envelops Xu Qi'an.

Xu baijuan in the realm of alchemy didn't catch the picture of the enemy's hand, but the instinct of Qi Pinwu was instilling a signal to him: danger!

If she insists on taking lang'er away, she will burn jade and stone with Princess Chen. In this way, she is bound to jump over the wall in a hurry. She will no longer worry that this is the back palace. If she does it to me, my life will not be guaranteed. Although there is Shenshu monk, Shenshu is my last card..... Xu Qi'an sneers, straightens her back, with disdain between her eyebrows:

"I Xu Qi'an will meet you that day Against tens of thousands of rebels, they fought alone and killed thousands of enemies. Does the empress think that I will be afraid of a mere threat?

"I'm not afraid of death. How can I be afraid of death?"

Chen Guifei was surprised and nodded slowly, "well said, Lord Xu is really a hero, planted in your hand..."

the lady of the imperial concubine pulled the teacup tightly in her hand, as if she wanted to drop it.

Suddenly, Xu Qi'an said aloud: "but I am sincere to Lin'an, and I don't want to see her sad. What happened today, I can regard it as not happening. "

Even if I want to expose my concubine, I have to be able to get out of Jingxiu palace.

After staring at him for a moment, she put down her tea cup and nodded with satisfaction: "you didn't lie. It seems that you really are sincere to Lin'an. In this case, why is Mr. Xu unwilling to take refuge? "

Do you think I'm a fool? I'll die if I take refuge in you. In the capital, all I can rely on is Wei Yuan. Huaiqing is only half of her. As for Lin'an, she's a princess with no power and no power. She can't protect me at all.

"Niang Niang, it's not empty promises, it's actions. I am loyal to Duke Wei because he treats me sincerely and I trust him. "

With that, Xu Qi'an turned over and looked at the little father-in-law outside the hospital. He said, "I have nothing to do with my wife, but I think she can't do anything to me."

Once there is no idea of burning jade and stone, then Chen Guifei can't embarrass him any more.

Although Xiao Gonggong is a minion, he is now the eye of emperor Jingdi of Yuan Dynasty and can be regarded as a monitor. Everything that happened here will be conveyed to yuanjingdi word for word.

Unless Chen Guifei kills him directly, it's useless for any conspiracy to frame him. Xiao Gonggong can testify for Xu Qian.

This is the reason why Xu Qi'an insisted on leaving his father-in-law.

Imperial concubine Chen took a deep look at him, and her beautiful eyes closed slightly. "The palace is short. Please step back... The gate of Jingxiu palace will always be open for you."

"I'll leave at a humble post."

Xu Qian bows his hands and exits the room.

Seeing him coming out, the little father-in-law in the yard immediately welcomed him and asked, "Lord Xu, what did your wife say to you?"

"Don't ask if you don't want to protect your head." Xu Qi'an has no good airway.

My father-in-law's face changed slightly.

Walking to the outer courtyard, Lin'an sat in the pavilion, holding his cheek in one hand and playing with tea cups in the other. He was bored.

There were two maids in the palace.

When she saw Xu Qi'an, her round face was full of smiles, her eyebrows were bent, her peach blossom eyes were smart, she waved and said in a delicate voice:

"dog slave, come here quickly."

The dog slave didn't shout at all. It sounds like coquetry.

Xu Qi'an took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotion, and laughed as if nothing had happened: "Your Highness, I have come out of humble duty."

Lin'an immediately asked, "what did your mother say to you?"

"The empress said that her highness is approaching the age of leaving the cabinet. She asked if there were suitable candidates for her humble position and recommended some young talents to her. She is good at helping his highness to find a future husband. "

Lin'an Leng for a moment, Hongxia quietly climbed on the face, suspicious way: "mother imperial concubine will say these with you?"Gee, why don't you do it? When did you become smart? I want to offer myself next. Xu Qian had no choice but to say:

"I'm just kidding."

Mounting willow eyebrows upside down: "dog slave, you dare to tease this palace."

Pinching his waist and staring at him.

"I'm still a child, I don't know what molestation is."

Mount mount "bah", and think Xu Qian speak very interesting, giggle up, like a little hen.

Her smile is pure and charming, just like a beautiful scenery.

Xu Qi'an followed him with a smile and a sigh in his heart.

Previously, his idea was to pretend not to know, leave Jingxiu Palace first, and then tell Wei Yuan what he found, so that Wei Yuan can catch lang'er quickly and beat imperial concubine Chen unprepared.

But because of Lin'an's relationship, he hesitated. Although he calmed down, he would not hesitate to expose imperial concubine Chen.

Unexpectedly, Chen Guifei's rank is not low. It can be expected that lang'er's hind foot will die of illness as soon as he leaves. In this way, Chen Guifei will have no flaws.

"Imperial concubine Chen is a qualified concubine... Lin'an is such a stupid girl. I don't know whether it's a blessing or a curse to grow up in the palace wall."

Recalling Chen Guifei's operation just now, she was really smart. No matter what happened, she called him to have a try. It turned out that she really found out.

Her subsequent Frank words seemed to be out of her heart and out of her lungs, but in fact she had no fear, because she knew that as long as she solved lang'er, she would have no flaws, and Xu Qi'an could not take lang'er away, unless she did not want to live.

Now that I've been found, I'd better be more generous and say it to win my trust. Then I'll throw out a beautiful girl as bait. If I was a lecheron, I might have taken the bait at that time.

I'm covered by Shenshu monk, so I may not die on the spot, but I also expose myself. Emperor yuan Jingdi will seal me in Sangpo, and the end is still the same It's the same. It's the same.

Out of Jingxiu palace, Xu Qian said that he had to deal with the important affairs, and declined the invitation to mount Gobang.

"Little father-in-law, I've already dealt with the affairs in the palace. Later, when you report to your majesty, there are some things you can say and some things you can't say. I'll give you some advice." Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice.

Little eunuch smell speech, put on a serious posture, "Xu adult please say."

"You should tell the emperor everything about Jingxiu palace. You have to say this: after consulting lang'er, the maid of Jingxiu palace, Mr. Xu's face was very ugly. He didn't want to stay any longer and didn't even drink tea.

"But before Mr. Xu left Jingxiu palace, she was suddenly left behind by the imperial concubine and asked to go to the backyard... The imperial concubine held back everyone and talked to Mr. Xu in the room for a long time. The slave was left in the courtyard and could not enter. Although he could see them in the room, he could not hear what they were saying.

"After the conversation, Mr. Xu left the palace full of worries."

With that, Xu Qian took out five taels of silver from his arms, and five taels of silver from the eunuch of Jingxiu palace, a total of ten taels, and handed them to the little father-in-law without smoke.

The little father-in-law opened his mind and waved his hand: "Mr. Xu, I can't do it."

After collecting the money, he thought over Xu Qi'an's words carefully. He realized that there was no big problem. Then he nodded: "OK, I will do it."

Xu Qi'an immediately left the palace. Huaiqing, who was brought by Yu Lin Wei, borrowed his steed to rush back to the watchman's Yamen.

After passing through the guard, he went into Haoqi building and came to the teahouse on the seventh floor.

Wei Yuan was not in the teahouse, but in the observation desk connected with the teahouse. He was sitting on a big chair with his hair scattered. An official in black was combing his hair.

Wei Yuan waved, "come here, comb my hair."

The official in black handed Xu Qi'an the comb and left the teahouse.

"How does Duke Wei comb his hair at this time?"

Xu Qian holds the comb, from head to bottom, no knot, a comb to the end, the heart said quite elegant.

"Hair in Buddhism means worry." Wei Yuan bathed in the sun, squinted, and his voice was gentle:

"once you comb your hair, the past will be written off."

What do you mean?

Today's Wei Yuan is a bit strange. What does it mean to write off the past?

"There's no point in combing your hair. I'll give it to Duke Wei." Xu Qian said.

Wei Yuan laughed: "try it!"

Xu Qi'an put the comb in his arms, opened his five fingers, pressed Wei Yuan's head, and gently pressed the acupoints.

Wei Yuan's breathing voice gradually slows down, and the warm sunshine sprinkles on them. This place has a beautiful scenery. Xu Qi'an squints at it, feeling that he is back in the world, far away from the intrigue in the palace.

"Not bad." Wei Yuan said with a smile.

Sure, it's the magic skill of the barber shop. I'll make a shampoo chair for you later. Xu Qi'an coughed and said, "I have something to report.""He said

"I've found out who's behind the scenes."

Wei Yuan opened his eyes and did not speak for a long time.

"It's Princess Chen!" Xu Qi'an said in a low voice: "today, I went to Jingxiu palace to investigate the case and found that lang'er, the maid in waiting beside her, was the one who tore up the pamphlet of the imperial Pharmacy..."

now I tell Wei Yuan all about my discovery and the solicitation of Princess Chen.

Wei Yuan patted his hand and motioned him to stop. He got up and went to the edge of the observation platform. He put his hands on the guardrail and looked at the distance. "Who do you think is the power behind Princess Chen?"

How do I know... Xu Qi'an shook his head: "it may have something to do with Si Tian Jian."

This is what he deduced from the existence of Wang Qi Shu.

"It's not Shitian Jian." Wei Yuan shook his head in a determined tone.

It wasn't Si Tian Jian... After a few seconds, Xu Qi'an reacted and said in amazement: "Duke Wei, do you know that it's imperial concubine Chen who is calculating the queen and you?"

"At first, I didn't expect that she was so cruel that she dragged the prince into the water..... I didn't continue to pay attention to this case after it was handed over to you. Until this morning, I knew that the queen had pleaded guilty. After listening to you finish the whole story of the case, I guessed that it was Princess Chen. "

... Xu Qi'an stared at his back for a long time. Before, he thought that Wei Yuan and Taoist Jinlian were old silver coins, but now he found that Taoist Jinlian was quite pure, not as deep as Wei Yuan.

If it's not Si Tianjian, how can Chen Guifei perform Wang Qishu? Besides Si Tianjian, who else can?

Xu Qian's heart moved, "Duke Wei, I think of something."

"Three warlocks in Yunzhou case?" Wei Yuan asked.

"Wei Gong's wisdom is extraordinary..." Xu Qi'an took it.

"I've checked this person, but I haven't found out. Do you know the name of the third Warlock of the sky warden?" Wei Yuan asked.

"Master Tianji." Xu Qi'an has heard of forced king.

"Tianji master can block Tianji and erase all traces of his own existence. His parents will forget him, his wife and children will forget him, and all written records he left will disappear. This is the master of the secret.

"In addition, Tianji master can tamper with other people's impression of him, leaving a vague memory in his heart, but he can't recall it completely."

Wei Yuan looked around: "in the Sangpo case, you once checked the information of the early Dynasty, but there was no historical record, no word. You know, Emperor Wuzong can change history, but he can't stop posterity, let alone unofficial history.

"It was the supervisor who wiped out all the information of the early supervisor, as if he had never existed. Even I often mistakenly think that Jian Zheng is the founder of Si Tian Jian and the founder of the warlock system.

"Later, because of the separation brought by the historical vacancy, it suddenly occurred to me that there was also an early supervisor."

"How can we find out?" Xu Qi'an was shocked.

Once again, he realized how terrible the world's top powers are.

"If you want to find out, you have to rely on supervision." Wei Yuan said.

It's reasonable. Only magic can defeat magic. Father Wei's idea is right. Xu Qi'an nodded secretly.

"But the supervisor refused." Wei Yuan sighed.

This is really an expected answer. There are many secrets in Si Tian Jian. Jian Zheng is like a secret old man... Xu Qi'an pursed his mouth and asked in a curious tone:

"do you know the names of the first and second warlocks, Duke Wei?"

Wei Yuan shook his head, "I have never dealt with JianZheng. Dafeng is like a game of chess. He is a chess player, and I am also a chess player. We often have conflicts because of different ideas."

This is the first time that Wei Yuan talked with Xu Qi'an about such "high-end" content.

Perhaps in Wei Yuan's mind, Jian Zheng is his biggest political enemy? Xu Qian said tentatively, "Duke Wei is going to save the queen."

"The success or failure of pushing out my uncle to take the blame remains to be considered. Your majesty likes to check and balance, and will think that if you abolish the queen, the crown prince will have no rival. However, your majesty thinks of some unhappy things, and may not have such a cool head, unless you can make him suspect Princess Chen......

" the Queen's heart is still too soft. She didn't discuss with us in advance when she took this step I'm not sure Wei Yuan was helpless in his voice.

Wei Gong, your subtext is: Queen, are you a pig teammate?

As soon as Xu Qi'an's eyes brightened, he knew that his foreshadowing before going out of the palace was not in vain, or he might have made contributions.

"Duke Wei, I'm guilty of humble duty. I just made my own decision."

Wei Yuan turned around and frowned: "what's the matter?"
