Chapter 501: Playing Chess

Xu Qinghuan looked at Xu Qingan.

Xu Qingan swallowed with some guilt: "Sister, am I right?"

Xu Qinghuan said: "Then what? My brother said that if you catch someone, you can find out the secret. What will happen if you can't find out?"

Xu Qingan was speechless for a moment.

"There is no evidence. What we just said is just speculation. There is more than one high-ranking person in the court, Prince Jian, and Prince Jian is a well-known idle clan. How many people will believe you if you suddenly question Prince Jian?"

Xu Qing'an said: "We can interrogate Huijing. People like Su Wan can always find clues."

"Su Wan and Huijing have been sent to prison a long time ago. The adults in the Criminal Department all want to make meritorious deeds. They will not be lenient in interrogation, but so far they have found nothing. What can my brother find out if he asks?

If my brother is so impulsive, isn't he afraid of falling into the danger of the person behind the scenes? What if King Jian is really wronged?"

Xu Qingan and Qi Defang seemed to have been poured cold water on them, and they looked at each other in confusion.

Zhang Zhenren also stroked his beard and said: "What the eldest lady said makes sense. The person behind the scenes is always careful. He orders others to do everything. Even if people like Wang Yun and Su Wan are arrested, he will not be implicated."

."

"Then what should we do?" Qi Defang asked, "Should we not investigate?"

Xu Qinghuan said: "Whether King Jian is the person behind the scenes or not, King Jian is obviously not that idle clan member who does not care about government affairs. What I am curious about now is what King Jian wants to do."

"What do you want to do?" Xu Qing'an asked, "It's definitely not a good thing to be sneaky."

Xu Qinghuan said: "Since my brother knows that what King Jian did was not a good thing, why not catch them right then."

Reasonable trouble is a young hero, and unreasonable trouble is a playboy. Xu Qing'an's eyes lit up, but why did his sister give him such instructions? In the past, wasn't his sister directly telling them to do it?

Xu Qingan looked at Xu Qinghuan with a questioning look on his face.

Xu Qinghuan understood what Xu Qingan meant: "Brother, have you forgotten? I am getting married. During this period, I will either go to the elders' home as a guest or stay in my room to do needlework. These are the most important things."

What his sister said made sense, but Xu Qingan felt a little uncomfortable. He turned around and glared at Zhang Zhenren. When did Song Chengxuan become more important than the case?

Xu Qinghuan stood up and said: "Zhenzhen Zhang, brother and Prince Shunyang, please don't mess up the matter."



It's winter, and it seems like it's going to snow at any time.

Xu Qinghuan held her chin and looked out the window. In the previous life, Li Xu said that there was no clue about the person behind the scenes. At that time, King Jian moved the clan out of the capital and he became Zong Zhengqing.

Did Li Xu really not find out, or did he know the identity of the person behind the scenes and had other plans?

Is the person behind the scenes really King Jian?

Now she won't jump to conclusions casually, because the person behind the scenes is really cunning, and he will let him slip away if she is not careful, and what she will get in return must be a big trap.

Xu Qinghuan was thinking vaguely, and reached out to pick up the tea bowl on the table. Just when her hand was about to fall, the tea bowl was taken away.

"It's cold, change to a glass of warm water and drink again."

Xu Qinghuan raised her head and saw Song Chengxuan in official uniform. Apparently he had just come back from the Yamen. She was about to stand up, but Song Chengxuan walked on the soft bed first and glanced at the needlework on the table.

Xu Qinghuan was doing some needlework as a tribute to the elders of the Song family. The embroiderer had already outlined the edges and the tedious patterns had taken shape. She just had to fill in the blank spaces and it would be done.

"Let's play a game of chess!"

Seeing her lying here with a tired look on her face, Song Chengxuan looked at the chessboard on the table.

Xu Qinghuan was really in high spirits. After being locked up at home for a day, she felt very bored.

Yin Gui came forward with the chessboard, and Song Chengxuan touched the white piece.

Xu Qinghuan placed the black chess piece and was about to cross her legs and play with him carefully when she felt her feet being grabbed. She was afraid of the cold, so she wore pink soft-soled sleeping shoes. Now that he was touching her like this, she felt panic again.

And ashamed.

His warm palm fell on her instep: "Mr. Liao is right. Judging from your pulse, winter is the most difficult time. No matter how hot the house is, your hands and feet will inevitably get cold. When you go to the southeast in the future,

It should be better."

It turned out that he was confirming what Doctor Liao said.

There was silence in the room for a moment, and Song Chengxuan raised his head and saw her blushing face.

"If you don't do it, I'll give in." Her eyes drooped slightly, as if she was angry or angry.

There were a few crisp sounds, and Black had already dropped eight pieces.

Song Chengxuan was in a very stable mood. He had just gone to consult Dr. Liao and was only concerned about Xu Qinghuan's condition when he entered the room. Now that he saw the smile twinkling in her eyes, he felt a little irritated. He had been getting along a lot these days, and he seemed to

It becomes increasingly difficult to control myself.

Xu Qinghuan vaguely felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. If it continued like this, the two of them might have to do something intimate again. If this happened, Yin Gui and the others would laugh at it, and they would not be able to talk about business tonight.

Thinking of this, Xu Qinghuan retracted his feet, immediately covered him with a thin quilt, coughed and said, "How is it in the yamen? Did you tell me how to deal with Huijing?"

Song Chengxuan said: "The royal bloodline cannot be messed up. There is no precedent in this dynasty. Zongzheng Temple is looking around for ancient books and trying to find evidence from the ancestors. Some people have proposed a blood test. Everyone knows that this method is not reliable."

When Xu Qinghuan heard this, Zongzheng Temple's plan to check King An would be used on Song Chengxuan in due course. An idea flashed through her mind, but when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't figure it out.

Song Chengxuan continued: "Zongzheng Temple is looking for the old palace people, hoping to get some information from the old palace people, but there are too few people who know what happened back then."

Xu Qinghuan thought of something: "Has Prince Wei mentioned anything about Prince An?"

Song Chengxuan picked up a chess piece: "Prince An took great care of my father, but my father was still young at that time and was still raised in the palace. He must not know much about the situation of that battle."

From this point of view, it seems that the matters between Prince Wei and Prince An are not related at all. Maybe she is thinking too much.

Xu Qinghuan turned her attention to the chessboard again, only to find that a small area had been conquered by Song Chengxuan unknowingly. How could this man talk to her and use chess pieces to plot against her.

It was still early, so she would definitely compete with him.



Beijing, the small courtyard of the Shen family.

Mr. Shen put down his family early to rest and read alone under the lamp.

Over the years, he has become accustomed to serving himself, what kind of tea he likes, what kind of snacks he eats, no matter how considerate his servants are, the person who knows him best is always him.

After decades in the palace, he had served too many masters, and he had already seen through this. Sometimes it was better to live alone and quietly.

With this thought in mind, Mr. Shen picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, but he hadn't eaten it yet.

Then I heard a "bang" and the window opened.
