"Tch, you don't want to talk!" Su Zhen suddenly stopped moving her hands and looked at him with a strange expression, "General Xiao, are you trying to set a trap for me and take the opportunity to trick me?"
The narrow smile in Xiao Chuhong's eyes flashed away, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up, "Boss, here are two more portions of soybean-flavored pancakes, please pack them up for Mr. Su to take away."
Su Zhen almost dropped her jaw in shock. Was he afraid that she would starve to death? Or did he want her to starve to death?
She had just finished crying about being poor, and Xiao Chuhong came out like this. It was too much of a harm to others! If you are serious about it, come and rain down money to kill her!
If it weren't for the fact that she stole too much wine from Jiyuefang, how could Yueniang have banned her from entering!
But how can you say this to Xiao Chuhong? How embarrassing!
"Li Jiu, let's go."
"Yes, General."
Li Jiu put down two ingots of silver, bowed his hands to Su Zhen, turned the direction of the wheelchair, and pushed it towards the carriage.
The two grooms pressed down the decorations at the same time, and after a few clicks, a thick wooden board extended from the edge of the carriage. Li Jiu pushed Xiao Chuhong's wheelchair, pushed him into the carriage, opened the curtain and helped him sit down
Go in.
Su Zhen bared her teeth at the retreating carriage and made a gesture of contempt.
Wandering around in the evening, as soon as the sun comes up, I look like a frail and charming young man.
What's going on with this guy? That's weird! Didn't he just cooperate secretly as promised?
The boss stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Su, the two hundred portions that young man ordered for you just now...do you want more?"
"Yes! Why don't you want it? After you finish it later, please send it to Siwei's office."
"Okay!" The boss grinned from ear to ear.
The spies who thought they were well hidden and undetected looked at Su Zhen and Xiao Chuhong's exaggerated interaction and were at a loss. These two people didn't look like they had just met each other!
After Su Zhen left, they started whispering behind each other.
"Boss, do we still want to attack Su Zhen?"
"I couldn't hear what they were saying just now. You should go back and tell the prince that Xiao Chuhong and Taifu Su may have met in private and made friends."
"yes!"
...
In the carriage, Li Jiu asked in confusion, "General, if you are worried about Mr. Su, you only need to send someone to follow and protect him secretly, so why bother to come out in person? It would be terrible if those with evil intentions take the opportunity to assassinate him!"
"If I didn't show up in person, how could Shang Yici's people really be afraid and give up on killing Su Zhen?"
Xiao Chuhong opened the car curtain and looked behind him. Su Zhen had already left.
He raised his hand to smooth the wrinkles of his clothes with an indifferent expression, completely unfazed by Li Jiu's worries.
He had just returned to Kyoto for the first time, and no matter how many people wanted to kill him, he had to hold back and not dare to jump over the wall!
"But General, if you do this, you will undoubtedly be tied to Mr. Su. But my subordinates feel that he is not interested in wealth, reputation and power. But he is willing to stay in the court. There must be something wrong with him.
The plan."
Xiao Chuhong lowered his eyes and sneered. He was also very curious as to what secrets Su Zhen had been hiding besides Jiyuefang.
"He and I have a common enemy. Although we have always used each other, no one can tell whether we will become...friends one day."
Since the incident that year, he has suffered a lot from the warmth and coldness of human beings. Only when he faced the prince, Gu Yunshu and others did he feel warmth in his heart.
But Su Zhen was different, and he couldn't tell what was different.
Li Jiu didn't know that his general was tangled in his heart, so he nodded, "General, do we really want to go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"Go to the East Palace. Yunshu didn't leave the palace last night and should still be with the prince." Xiao Chuhong paused and then explained, "Send someone to buy the recipe for the sauce for the soybean pancakes and let the chef in the palace
Learn to do it.”
"General, since when did you like to eat those inferior foods?"
Although Mr. Su's food seems to be delicious, it doesn't match his status as a general!
Xiao Chuhong glanced at him and said, "Go if you are told!"
"Yes! I will do it now!"
Li Jiu did not dare to say any more, opened the curtain, flew out of the carriage and went to explain the matter to the secret guard.
...
Su Zhen, who was heading to Siwei's office, was originally sulky because of Yu Ziye's departure, but when she noticed that the murderous aura around her disappeared, she finally realized her previous carelessness.
Taking a deep breath to calm down the turmoil in his heart, could it be that Xiao Chuhong showed up deliberately and teased her for a long time to save her?
So are the clues he mentioned true or false?
In all sorts of tangles, she came to Siwei's Yamen.
After entering the main hall of the inner office, Yu Changqing was seen wearing a black flying fish suit, sitting upright in front of the case, carefully reading the files, but his face was a little haggard, it was obvious that he had not slept well last night.
Isn't it possible that Yu Ziye failed to get her love and smashed up his palace before leaving?!
The government officials were so frightened by the cold air pressure on Yu Changqing that they did not dare to say anything. Jin Lian made a silent gesture to her, indicating that she should not ask any more questions.
Su Zhen nodded, "Master Yu, when will we enter the palace?"
Yu Changqing shook the file in his hand and handed it to her, his voice a little hoarse, "Look at this first."
Su Zhen stepped forward to take it and scanned it roughly. Yu Changqing had already written down all the suspicious points. Her eyes fell on something, "Huh? There is a small amount of musk in the residue of the medicine found in Qiling Hall yesterday?!
"
"Yes, taking this medicine for a long time will cause infertility in women. The incense in the incense niche is indeed what you said, it is the seven incense made by Miss Mi Yao of Jiyuefang."
"Could someone be jealous of her being favored and want to poison her?" Jin Lian's voice became weaker and weaker, "Could it be that person..."
It is common for concubines in the harem to poison and plot in order to compete for favor, but only one person is different. Others are jealous at most, and the only one who may have murderous intentions is Concubine Yu. After all, it was Li Jieyu who poached her and stepped on her to get the upper hand.
.
"If what those palace maids said is true, and Li Jieyu has never had a conflict with anyone, then the possibility of a vendetta has been reduced to a minimum, but I always feel that it is not as simple as fighting for favor in the harem." Su Zhen yawned and looked nearby.
He took a seat, propped up his chin and asked, "Do you have any history of sending someone to check the medicine?"
Yu Changqing didn't bother to care about her rudeness, "The medicine was prescribed by the Tai Hospital. It has beauty effects and is used by Li Jieyu to regulate her body. Many concubines will prescribe it. Generally speaking, it is the maids who go to the Tai Hospital to get the medicinal materials.
Then fry it and give it to the ladies of the palace. But I sent someone to check last night and found that there is no shortage of musk in the imperial hospital."
"Does Master Yu think that the musk she took came from outside the palace?"
"Well, let's go, enter the palace, and then meet Yue Luo. There should be clues about her."
"good."
Yu Changqing glanced at her lukewarmly and walked out, followed by other government officials with swords.
Su Zhen grabbed Jin Lian's arm, "Wait a minute! What happened to Master Yu? Wasn't he fine last night?"
"I heard that someone broke into your residence last night. However, your Excellency was not angry because of this. He seemed to have had a dispute with Miss Yu and made a big fuss."
"quarrel?!"
Why? Yu Ziye?
"Okay, don't ask any more questions, let's enter the palace quickly."
"Um."
Su Zhen stood there and meditated silently. After they all left, she slowly followed them, walking calmly and smoothly. This chapter has been completed!
