The so-called search of the palace is to search out all the letters and objects that seem to have rebel motives one by one, and finally hand them over to the palace. The things found from Zhao Guangzheng may not seem to be much, but there are also two big piles.

box.

Soon, the two boxes of things were delivered to the palace. This time, to determine whether these things were suspicious duties, the emperor did not leave them to others, but did it himself. He looked at the contents one by one, and finally...

He breathed a long sigh of relief. Among Zhao Guangzheng's things, there was nothing that made him look suspicious.

If now, he has to choose one of the two sons who wants to usurp the throne, his heart will still tend to Zhao Luozhi to do so, not for anything else, just because now, he and the great cause still need

Zhao Guangzheng, he cannot put him on his opposite side so easily.

Gu Hanqian stood aside and waited, and then saw the emperor raising his head from those things with satisfaction, telling him that this matter had nothing to do with Zhao Guangzheng, and asked him to take people to take care of the Sixth Prince's Mansion today and overnight.

Search it again.

After leaving the emperor and returning to the Prince's Mansion, Gu Hanqian told the emperor's explanation. When he heard the emperor's arrangement, Qingmei, who was waiting behind Ji Fuyin, curled her lips slightly. Even she knew that she had already alerted the snake.

, and so many days have passed, and all the evidence has not been eliminated?

Gu Hanqian obviously thought so too, but after Ji Fuyin listened to his concerns, she just smiled meaningfully, filled him a bowl of hot soup from the earthen pot on the side, and opened his mouth unhurriedly.

"There's nothing to worry about. Drink this soup first. Don't be in a hurry to search the house. Anyway, no matter when we search, we can find something."

"How to search? It's been so many days. I'm afraid the Sixth Emperor has already cleaned up the house and is waiting for us to search." Gu Hanqian took a sip of the soup, and a gentle smile immediately appeared on his face.

, "Your soup-making skills are getting better and better."

"If you like it, then drink two more bowls." Ji Fuyin couldn't even see the slightest anxious look on her face. She added soup to Gu Hanqian's bowl and said slowly, "How did she spill dirty water on it earlier?"

Do you still remember what happened to our Ji family?"

Gu Hanqian nodded, "Of course I remember."

"That's alright, what's the point in this? Let's just give him a taste of his own medicine this time. He's using a map to frame us, so let's give him a map in return.

Map." Ji Fuyin's eyes burned brightly, "This can be regarded as a kind of cause and effect, and it does not mean that he was wronged."

"This method... may work, but there are some..." Gu Hanqian didn't know what to say, and was at a loss for words for a moment.

"There are some villains, I know that. But I came up with this method. You are a gentleman, not me. Besides, sometimes to deal with such villains, you need to use the same villain's methods. This is okay.

That's not right." Ji Fuyin smiled slightly and calmly said, "And I said, we didn't accuse him of being wronged this time."

Gu Hanqian was startled, then understood, with a bit of disbelieving surprise and joy on his face, "Could it be that Fuyin, you...?"

"Drink the soup first and let it cool down carefully." Ji Fuyin smiled at him, "I have prepared everything. After you finish drinking the soup, we can go to the Sixth Prince's Mansion."

Two hours later. The Sixth Prince's Mansion.

Aunt Zhou kept pacing, her face was panicked, nervous sweat broke out on her forehead from time to time, "Your Highness, Sixth Highness, do you think nothing will happen to us this time? Didn't Qiaoyin tell me that it is?"

The Third Highness ordered her to do this, so why does the Emperor come to the Sixth Prince's Mansion to search for her?"

This woman's endless walking around has long made Zhao Luozhi disgusted. If he hadn't wanted to cause more trouble for the time being, he would have completely destroyed this wishful thinking but timid mother and daughter.

Shut up.

"If you don't want to make people suspicious, aunt, you'd better put away your fearful expression first. Otherwise, even if I can't find anything in this house, others will be suspicious after seeing your expression.

That's it." Zhao Luozhi said calmly, with an imperceptible look of disgust flashing across his eyes.

Aunt Zhou's face showed a bitter and flattering smile, "Of course I understand this, but... I'm not afraid that something will happen to you, Your Highness, Sixth Prince!"

Seeing that Zhao Luozhi stopped talking, Aunt Zhou rolled her eyes and said again: "Your Highness, the sixth highness, this storm is about to pass. What did you promise Qiao Yin before...?"

Zhao Luozhi glanced at her, and the smile on his face looked like it was made with a mold, "Auntie, you don't trust me? I have already returned the betrothal gift from the Song family for you, and promised to give it to the Song family

I have also sent someone to deliver the five hundred taels of silver."

Following someone like Song Chengxi, her daughter will suffer a lifetime of hardship. Now when she heard that her daughter had nothing to do with the Song family, Aunt Zhou suddenly smiled. This selfish, mean but short-sighted woman,

She didn't realize at all that her current daughter had long since lost the charm of letting a man take the initiative to break off the engagement for her.

Aunt Zhou couldn't even imagine what Zhao Luozhi was really thinking. She was still happily imagining that from now on, her daughter would be the sixth prince's concubine, and she would fly up a branch and become a phoenix. She could follow suit.

I feel proud...

Just when Aunt Zhou was immersed in her fantasy, a servant came to report that the people searching the house had arrived.

Zhao Luozhi stood up calmly, with even a condescending and sarcastic smile on his face, "Please come in."

"Brother Six Emperors is really leisurely." Gu Hanqian said with a smile as soon as he entered the door and saw the chessboard and the freshly brewed tea in front of Zhao Luozhi.

Zhao Luozhi made a gesture of invitation, and then said with a normal expression: "There is a saying that goes well, don't do anything wrong, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. I have never done anything to disgrace my father, and the same is true in my mansion.

I've always been clean, so there's nothing to worry about. Come on, Brother Yonko, let's play with me."

Gu Hanqian no longer refused, sat down, picked up a flag, and dropped it on the chessboard. Ji Fuyin sat next to him, watching the two of them fighting silently on the chessboard with black and white flags.

In today's game of chess, the two people obviously concealed their own strength, and there was no clear and fierce fight. It seemed that this game of chess could continue endlessly.

Ji Fuyin slowly glanced at the furnishings around the room. She had been extremely sensitive since she was a child, and she smelled a trace of the gaudy rouge smell in the air. It was the smell of Aunt Zhou, and she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.

A mocking smile.

The reason why Qiao Yin is so stupid has something to do with Aunt Zhou, her biological mother. She has already lived for half her life. She still believes in pie-in-the-sky things and clings to Zhao Luozhi, the big pie.

It is rare for people to be so stupid.

This game of chess was played from early evening until late at night. It seemed that the time had passed, but neither of the two players had any intention of ending the game. Outside the room, the search continued, from time to time.

The sound of footsteps coming and going could be heard.

Although those people had tried their best to move as gently as possible, those voices still sounded so clear in the silent night.

This continued until the sky turned white. Ji Fuyin covered her face with a handkerchief and yawned tiredly. After a night, her body was really tired, but her spirit kept going.

As time goes by, I become more and more radiant and full of expectations -

She knew that the moment she was waiting for was coming soon.

Gu Hanqian seemed to have suddenly lost his patience. He changed his previous meek chess game and started to run rampant on the chess board. In the blink of an eye, Zhao Luozhi captured many chess pieces.

"Brother Four Emperors, are you distracted, or does your chess skills really stop here?" Zhao Luozhi chuckled lightly, and a black stone landed on the chessboard, expanding his territory a few points.

At this moment, a follower suddenly ran in from the outside in small steps, with a hint of excitement in his voice, "Report to His Highness the Crown Prince that a map was found in the secret compartment of His Highness the Sixth Prince's study!"

Zhao Luozhi was stunned. The secret compartment in the study room... hadn't he already ordered someone to clean it up a long time ago?! Now, the secret compartment in the study room only contained some rare books, calligraphy and paintings. Where did the map come from?

!Not just the study, but all the darkrooms in this mansion, he has replaced the contents with priceless treasures——

But now, why do you find some kind of inexplicable map inside there?!

After listening to the attendant's report, Gu Hanqian chinned slightly, and the white stone in his hand fell gently on one place. With a smile on his face, he looked at Zhao Luozhi and said, "Brother Sixth Emperor, it seems that you lose this time.

.”

Just when Gu Hanqian's last white stone fell, the chess game that had previously been divided suddenly experienced a shocking reversal. The black stones on the chessboard had completely fallen into the white stone's trap. In addition to waiting to admit defeat, there was no other way.

There is no second option.

Ji Fuyin chuckled lightly, with a trace of laziness on her face after a sleepless night, which made her delicate face look even more feminine. "This is really interesting.
