At this time, Xiaodie arrived with hot tea and snacks.
It wasn't that she was slow in doing things, but that she knew that Ming Mu Qingyu wanted to see Ming Qinxue's injuries, or had other things to talk about, and it was not appropriate for her to be there, so she waited aside even though she had already arrived.
In terms of sense of proportion, she is much better than Xiaocha.
Seeing that the person had left, Xiaodie called out softly: "Girl?"
Ming Qinxue said calmly: "Put it there!"
Putting the tray on the table, Xiaodie let out a light sigh.
Ming Qinxue turned her head and followed Xiaodie's gaze, landing on the chessboard on the table.
On the chessboard, the white and black stones are arranged like a rabbit.
Xiaodie smiled and said: "This rabbit is so cute!"
Ming Qinxue: "..."
Is this a rabbit?
Yes, this is a rabbit, a naive rabbit with long ears and a fat body.
But it’s not just a rabbit, here the white and sunspots are made up of a cicada, a praying mantis, and an oriole!
Is she telling herself that the mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole is behind?
But I am an oriole!
But Mu Qingyu would not pose such a picture for no reason.
Ming Qinxue considered it carefully.
Mu Qingyu guessed right, Ruan Xinlian came to the capital because of her arrangement.
And when she discovered Ruan Xinlian as a person, she did so unintentionally.
The brothers from Puyang Prefecture, Ganyi County, Jizhou, Feng Yulou discovered that Master Futai often sent his cronies to Jiantian County, under the jurisdiction of Puyang Prefecture, for overt and covert inspections.
Those people go out once or twice almost every year, and one trip takes three to five months.
What Feng Yu Lou sells is news, so where does that news come from? Of course, the brothers in the building collect it from everywhere. They must know the important news, and they will also pay attention to the general news!
p>
After all, no one knows what information the buyer wants. Maybe the information obtained accidentally can be sold for a big price?
This investigation is remarkable. The reason why Mr. Futai sent his cronies to investigate is that a maid escaped from the mansion before.
But this is not the case at all. This can be traced back to nine years ago, when there was a severe drought in Ganyi County, Jizhou, and the capital sent an imperial envoy. However, the imperial envoy loved to enjoy himself. In addition to good food and drink, he also loved beautiful women.
As for those local officials from top to bottom, firstly, they were afraid that the local disaster situation would be reported to the imperial envoy late, secondly, they were afraid that the disaster relief funds would not reach their own pockets, and thirdly, they were afraid that they would not be able to please the senior officials in the capital and would lose hope of promotion.
"Choose a concubine"!
It is said that the entire county selects concubines, and the selected "concubines" are sent to whichever palace the imperial envoy goes to. Everything is like a harem. Not only does the imperial envoy have a magnificent palace, but also the women are trained and educated.
, then wait for someone to bathe in the fragrant soup, then wrap up in a thin quilt, and send to the imperial envoy's room.
Although it is not a wine pool and a forest of meat, it is not far away.
Those women who love Cheng Huan will be given the avoidance soup the next day.
The imperial envoy has been in Ganyi County for more than three months, and it is said that there are more than a hundred beautiful women selected from various places.
The women who were rejected by the imperial envoy all disappeared without a trace.
However, it is said that a woman whom the imperial envoy liked the most escaped. What they are looking for is this escaped woman.
Although a country girl can escape as soon as she escapes, she may not be able to turn things around.
But when the county guard reported the matter to the government office, he became furious, and the government office was frightened, so he quickly sent people to look for him. He didn't find him, so he kept looking.
Although they also felt that the woman was penniless and far away from her hometown at that time, just when everything was waiting for help after the great disaster. She might have died on the road and become the fat of some grass, but her body was not found, and
Afraid of accountability from above, I kept looking for him.
This search really turned up some clues.
It turns out that the woman not only survived, but also gave birth to a child.
The news reached Ganyi County Sheriff, who felt that half of the sky had collapsed. He sent more than 20 people there with only one purpose: to get rid of both the mother and the child.
As soon as Ming Qinxue integrated all the information, her eyes suddenly lit up.
What she wanted to plan was inherently difficult. Even if those old foxes did bad things, they would handle it very cleanly from beginning to end, leaving almost no clues. It was rare that there was one now, and of course she couldn't let that woman die.
The people sent by the county guard didn't know where the woman was hiding, so they arrested her parents and relatives and interrogated them one by one, and then interrogated the surrounding villagers.
After learning that the woman had been living in the mountains, isolated from others, they immediately chased her. They had already caught up with the mother and son, but unexpectedly someone rescued her.
It was a tough battle, and many of their men died or were injured. Two people on the opposite side were extremely skilled, but they failed to succeed.
The news was passed back to the county guard, who immediately sent several groups of experts to go there. At that time, the mother and son actually found an escort agency to protect them.
They fought countless times along the way, and finally, they asked the mother and son to come to Beijing.
When they arrived in the capital, they did not dare to take action again. The governor of Ganyi County was beating his chest, but he did not dare to pass on the news to the original imperial envoy.
After they arrived in the capital, although Ming Qinxue placed them in an inn, their appearance changed, and her people were surrounded by them to protect their safety.
Ruan Xinlian was chosen to come to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion today to tell the truth in public. Several princes will be here today, and the fourth prince, who has never dealt with the eldest prince, will definitely seize this opportunity as long as he is not stupid.
She was indeed watching from the attic in the distance at that time. Although she couldn't hear clearly what these people were saying, she could make a good guess about the situation.
Now, Ruan Xinlian and her son have arrived at the Jingzhao Yin Yamen. Presumably, the matter they have reported has been filed. Because she is the first accuser, she will not be imprisoned. The fourth prince will also know the importance of these two people. The safety of the mother and her son in the future
, which is equivalent to being handed over to the fourth prince.
However, her people have not yet come to the Jingzhao Yin Yamen to ask Dingyuan Hou for questioning. It seems that Chu Yuncheng still lacks some courage in doing things!
Mu Qingyu said is she ready to withstand the backlash?
She had already arranged everything, so where was the backlash? However, she was so keen that she could guess that she was nearby at the time!
She can't admit it!
It’s not that she doesn’t believe in Mu Qingyu, after all, she has taken two paths, so there is no need for support or mutual help. Even if there is a backlash, she will bear it. Since Mu Qingyu is on the outside, don’t get involved!
Perhaps, this is a trivial thing she can do for the master she considers to be her master!
He definitely doesn’t want Mu Qingyu to be involved in such a mess!
Ming Qinxue saw clearly that Chu Jingxian agreed to the cooperation she proposed, and she still remembered the last time he met before leaving the capital. She said, "Leave the affairs of the capital to me, are you relieved? Do you have an explanation?"
He said: "No, even if you get nothing, it doesn't matter. It won't be too late when I come back!"
She said: "Doesn't this make it appear that I have no sincerity? Or that I am incompetent?"
He said: "Well, please take care of yourself!"
A cup of tea and a word of advice.
She was friends with him before!
But he was just a friend, so even though he knew that the capital city was in turmoil and dark waves were surging, he only said: Take care! But he didn’t say: It’s dangerous, don’t try it!
For one thing, he understood the hatred in her heart! He knew that she did not want any of the eldest prince or the fourth prince to ascend to that position. Even if it was not him who ascended that position, as long as it was not Chu Chengye and Chu Yuncheng, she would work hard to do it.
Do.
Secondly, she is not that important in his heart! Therefore, he is concerned about his friends, but nothing more!
From now on, he and she will be masters and advisers, and he will not look down upon her because she is a woman; nor will she find it difficult because he started with no background!
The days go by so fast!
Before the master comes back, if she has already pried the tiger of Dingyuan Marquis away, she will be lucky enough to live up to her fate!
After going over the details again, as long as Jing Zhaoyin opens an office to inquire about the case, Dingyuan Hou will definitely go to answer the inquiry and hear the case. It will soon be clear whether the first chief, three deputy and four imperial envoys from that year are all involved!<
/p>
With the fourth prince watching, there is no need to worry about Jing Zhaoyin not doing his best.
She played with the black and white pieces on the chessboard again. She was just a chess player. Now the eldest prince and the four princes have entered the game. When the chess continues, the other princes may be involved, maybe not. But it doesn't matter.
, after all, she is already pushing away the biggest obstacle!
So, what else is wrong?
Ming Qinxue's eyes were fixed on one of the sunspots, and her eyes changed slightly.
Ruan Xinlian felt very uneasy. She held Bao'er's hand and followed the fourth prince, feeling like she was in a dream.
Just now, the fourth prince took her to Jing Zhaoyin, taught her how to file a lawsuit and make presentations, and also gave her reassurance that her son would have a father to rely on!
Ruan Xinlian was very grateful to the fourth prince.
She never dreamed that she would meet so many kind-hearted people!
First, the two eldest brothers who kindly rescued her, and then all the escorts in the escort agency took great care of their mother and son. When they arrived in the capital, they were able to meet the prince.
That's the emperor's son, the dragon son.
She had heard it before, and it was like listening to the immortals in the sky. She never thought that one day, she would be able to see the prince's face, and she would need his help!
At this time, Ruan Xinlian regarded the fourth prince as a Bodhisattva, and her heart was filled with respect and trust!
The fourth prince looked gentle and said: "Ruan, I will definitely make the decision for you. It is inconvenient and unsafe for you to live in an inn. Next, you will move to my villa until the case is concluded."
, your son’s father will naturally arrange your mother and son’s place!”
As for that time, he didn't bother to care whether the mother and son were dead or alive.
What he wants is that they can now be used by him and become a knife to stab Dingyuan Hou!
Ruan Xinlian pulled Bao'er and was about to kneel down and kowtow.
The fourth prince said: "You don't need to be polite! You are also a pitiful person. You have brought your son up so big by yourself. The father of the child should shoulder the responsibility of being a father. No one will ignore this matter! So you don't need to be afraid.
This king's villa is empty, so you don't have to be restrained to live there!"
He called Zuo Qing again: "Take someone to escort them to another courtyard in person, and send someone to protect their safety!"
Zuo Qing said: "Yes!"
Zuo Qing took Ruan Xinlian there, while Chu Yuncheng was shaking his folding fan, his mood so good that the corners of his mouth were flying.
Behind him, a tall and thin man, Song Qinghe, a minister of Prince Ding's Mansion, said: "Your Highness, why don't you just ask Mr. Ji to ask Dingyuan Marquis for questioning so that the case can be concluded as soon as possible?"
Chu Yuncheng smiled confidently: "What's the hurry? Dingyuan Hou will definitely be on pins and needles about today's matter. If the case is not tried for a day, he will be worried every day. Not only him, but also Chu Chengye. Tomorrow's morning meeting
, they themselves have fallen behind, and they will definitely not dare to bite like crazy dogs like usual. This is our opportunity!"
Song Qinghe understood it as soon as he heard it, and smiled: "Now the existence of Ruan's mother and son is like a knife, hanging over their heads. They know the existence of the knife, and they are worried about the knife falling, but they are unable to use it.
When the knife is taken off, it is time for them to suffer. Suffering will inevitably cause them to lose their composure. The prince just takes this opportunity to make them chaotic! The prince has thought deeply and has a far-reaching plan!"
Chu Yuncheng was very useful. He could imagine the uneasiness in the hearts of Chu Chengye and Dingyuan Hou at this time.
What is said that there were one chief, three auxiliaries and four imperial envoys at that time. If Dingyuanhou had not participated in it, would the other three have dared?
Chu Yuncheng's courtyard is not a remote place. On the contrary, it is still on the inner street of Dongcheng, only two streets away from Prince Ding's Mansion.
There were servants in the other courtyard. When Zuo Qing and others settled Ruan Xinlian and her son in, they saw such a big yard, such an exquisite place, and those gardens full of flowers. Ruan Xinlian even walked carefully.
Only Bao'er was carefree and didn't feel Ruan Xinlian's anxiety and uneasiness at all, playing happily in the garden.
Zuo Qing deployed a group of guards here. After thinking about it, he felt uneasy, so he placed two more guards to protect him secretly.
As Chu Yuncheng's personal guard, he knows the importance of these two people!
How important is Marquis Dingyuan to the eldest prince? Just like Duke Zhuang’s palace is to his master, if this case is implemented, the eldest prince will no longer have the strength to fight with his master!
Mu Qingyu left Mingzhai and drove straight to Yiyun Tower. The business of this restaurant has been good since it reopened, but routine inspections are still required.
After turning the corner, she arrived at the street where Yiyun Tower was located, but she was blocked by someone.
Mu Xian stopped the horse and said, "Girl, King Liang is blocking the road. How should we deal with it?"
Mu Qingyu was speechless, what is Chu Xinyuan going to do?
She lifted the car curtain, looked at Chu Xinyuan, who was standing in the road with black hair and a body like a black stick, and Yue Xi behind him who was trying to look like a transparent person, and asked: "Is something wrong?"
Chu Xinyuan took a look and saw strangeness, disgust, and a touch of impatience in her eyes.
He pursed his lips and said, "Mu Qingyu, let's cooperate!"
Mu Qingyu looked at him inexplicably: "What cooperation?"
Chu Xinyuan said slowly: "I know you want to open a tea road between Eastern Xia and Southern Qi, but this road is not easy to open. Not only do you need tea guides, road guides, and customs clearance documents, but you also need documents for trade between the two countries.
.It just so happens that I also want to start a tea business. We can cooperate. Forty-six points, four for me and six for you. How about that?"
Mu Qingyu chuckled lightly and said: "His Royal Highness, Prince Liang, is so powerful that he even knows everything about my business. Then don't you know that I have opened up this trade route? Now, I don't know at all
If you need any cooperation, Your Highness should find another solution!"
