Qu Tan'er glared at Xiao Mengmeng fiercely, but she wasn't really angry. After all, this monster beast has always had a good temper. Alas, she was used to it.
She tapped her feet lightly, jumped onto the back of a certain demon beast, and patted him gently, "You can take off now."
In order to prevent it from falling off, she naturally held on to its feathers.
The road was always calm.
Qu Tan'er was not in a hurry, and would always rest for a night when encountering a town to inquire about news.
Old man Zhan didn't rush it, because their original plan was that the time had not come yet.
I've been on the road for half a month.
The two finally heard the news in a city. It was said that the old mistress of the Song family in Riyao Prefecture, the princess, went to Beijing in person to ask for justice, saying that someone in the palace killed her husband. The old head of the Song family was in the Moyang Dynasty. Although she was not a member of the court in her old age,
, he was also a general in the army when he was young and had a high reputation among the people.
The retired head of the Song family was killed, but he was involved in the palace.
The little emperor didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, so he had to personally greet the princess outside the palace, invite the princess into the palace, and repeatedly promised that he would find out the truth and bring justice to the princess's aunt. The palace didn't want the scandal to become a big scandal, but it still didn't stop it. The news was
Spreading out like snowflakes, out of control...
In the evening, in the lobby of the inn, when Qu Tan'er heard the news, she couldn't hide the happy smile on her face.
Old man Zhan had a lot of resentment in his heart, and he was very relieved when he heard this, "By the time we get to Beijing, we should be done with it."
Qu Tan'er smiled and said, "It's almost the same. Now, I wonder how Xiao Jinghong will handle it? This matter... is quite tricky for him."
"Girl, do you think... it really has nothing to do with the rich man and the little emperor?"
"They two are not so stupid, dare to go against me?"
"This... the human heart is unpredictable. I didn't have those thoughts, power, desire, hatred, unwillingness, etc. over time... no matter how upright a person is, they might change." Old man Zhan doesn't believe in the human heart, nor does he believe in Situ.
clan. It can be seen how disappointed this old man is with the Situ clan.
"Isn't that true? You'll understand when you go to Kyoto." Qu Tan'er didn't refute Old Man Zhan, and just smiled lightly.
Had a meal.
The two of them went back to their rooms to rest.
Early the next morning, they ate hastily, prepared some more food, and set off. At this time, the pace of the two people's journey speeded up significantly. A few days later, they appeared in Kyoto in Moyang. The familiar streets and familiar atmosphere were quite pleasant.
Qu Tan'er suddenly felt a little nostalgic. After all, she had lived here for a short period of time.
The two of them found an inn, took two upper rooms, washed off their travel dust, and rested for the night.
The next day, everyone was in good spirits.
The two of them did not hide their whereabouts at all, so early the next morning, there were people waiting at the inn.
The person who came was an elder from a wealthy family.
At the moment, in the Moyang Palace, the identity of the wealthy elder is supreme, but it is usually impossible for outsiders to see such a person, but he actually appeared in an inn. Fortunately, ordinary people would have no chance to see him, otherwise, I am afraid that this
The inn was in a state of excitement. When he saw old man Zhan and Qu Taner coming out, he stood up to greet them.
The rich man said modestly: "I never thought I would see you two again."
"I didn't expect either..." Qu Tan'er said with a smile. But if you listen carefully, it sounded a bit sinister. Old man Zhan snorted coldly as an answer.
But Zhan's hometown would definitely not have this kind of attitude in the past.
The two old men had a friendship from the beginning.
But now, guilt flashed across the rich man's face.
This trace of guilt could not escape Qu Tan'er's eyes. From this point on, she already knew that the wealthy elder had already known something.
