Unexpectedly, the thing that I just planned to ask Uncle Zhu to inquire about would actually happen when the eldest princess was on her way back from the palace today——
"girl."
Zhu Xiu came over soon.
"Today, when Princess Jingrong's car was passing through Xiyi Street, she was stopped by a drunkard and made rude remarks. I want Uncle Zhu to check the whereabouts of this person. After finding this person, there is no need to show his face, and there is no need to
If you are anxious to report it to the official, you can just watch it carefully in secret for the time being——"
Even though she could not think of the possible real connection between this matter and the death of the eldest princess, she should be more careful when the matter comes to pass.
As for unintentionally handing the person over to the government first - when this incident happened in her last life, she was not in the capital. She only heard that the person died in an accident. In order to smoothly find out the truth she wanted to confirm, she should not go too early.
Disrupt all of this, so that in the end there is no way to find out.
Zhu Xiu responded seriously.
"By the way, this happened on Xiyi Street. You can secretly find Miss Xu and ask her or the shop assistants if they saw the man's face clearly -"
At this time, there must be many different opinions on this matter outside, and many things will change their appearance after being passed around. Asking for the wrong clues and finding the wrong person will undoubtedly waste time.
"Yes, my subordinate will take people there right now."
At the same moment, Han Yan, the commander of the Jishi Guards, entered the palace to face the Saint.
In the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Qingming's eyes couldn't help but darken after hearing what happened on Xiyi Street.
"Jia Junzhi is so brave to dare to humiliate the eldest princess with words in the street——"
It wasn't like he hadn't heard Han Yan talk about this person's return to Beijing before.
However, it is said that the Xiangning Bo Mansion has never paid any attention to this person, and has recently even planned to expel him from the capital. However, the actions of the Bo Mansion are too detrimental.
"Now the government is searching everywhere in the city to find this person's whereabouts." Han Yan asked for instructions: "This person is not weak in martial arts. I wonder if we need our ministers to secretly cooperate with the government in order to capture this person as soon as possible."
Emperor Qingming nodded slightly.
"It's better to catch him earlier so that Jingrong can feel at ease earlier."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
"but--"
Emperor Qingming didn't know what he thought of. His eyes moved slightly and he said: "After finding the person, there is no need to bother sending the person to the government, lest he say anything that damages his reputation in public."
Han Yan was slightly startled.
Such thinking is certainly useful to others, but it seems meaningless to... the eldest princess who has no reputation at all, right?
But he could only follow His Majesty's instructions.
Not asking too many questions when something happens is the attitude a police officer should have.
"Yes, Wei Chen will definitely do it more cleanly."
Emperor Qingming laughed inexplicably, looked at his confidants, and said, "It doesn't matter if it's clean or not, there's no need to bother."
Just now he suddenly thought, this matter happened so coincidental and suddenly, could it be that God knew that he was hesitant to make up his mind, so he gave him a reminder and an opportunity?
Han Yan was a little confused.
But it was just a response.
"Weichen has taken note of it."
"Go, it's best to take action before the officials find him." Emperor Qingming ordered.
"Yes, Wei Chen resigns."
Han Yan quickly exited the imperial study room.
Emperor Qingming sat behind the dragon table, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
If possible, he really didn't want to get to that point with Jingrong.
He only has this sister...
Before his mother passed away, she held his hand and told him to protect his only sister.
Dingjing was his biological brother, but the mistake was that he had military power and had secret contacts with King Yan. In order to stabilize the situation, he had no choice but to set the trap at the Queen's birthday banquet - it was just that plan
Because the prince's destiny was great, he could not successfully carry it out to the end.
The respectable appearance is different after all.
She is just a weak woman. Without that incident, her existence would not be a threat at all.
If he guessed wrong, it would be the same as killing his own sister by mistake.
He is not truly a cold-blooded person, but in this position he has to think more about many things than ordinary people...
Even this sister, the closest brother to him since childhood, is not him at all.
The thorn in my heart ached faintly, and the uneasiness caused by the speculation that had been lingering in my heart for many years was suppressed but resurfaced again.
Emperor Qingming slowly clenched his fingers.
…
In the evening, the town government mansion.
The floating clouds passed by the bright moon, the cool breeze passed through the corridor, and the aroma of wine and food filled the dining room.
The Xu family were all here at this time, and the meal was almost finished. The drunken old man stood up holding on to the edge of the table, and patted the shoulder of his second son Xu Yun, who was also drunk, with his big hand.
"Dad is too lazy to say anything more. He won't care about you from now on. Just do whatever you want..."
Xu Jin glanced at his second brother's shoulder sympathetically.
If my father keeps taking pictures these days, he will probably get Sha...
"Hurry up and ask someone to help my grandfather go back to rest. Remember to send him some sobering soup." Xu Mingyi said to Uncle Yun from the side.
Uncle Yun agreed and immediately called two servants in, one on the left and the other on the right to help the old man leave.
Ms. Cui shook her head helplessly.
After a good meal, as soon as the second uncle's marriage was discussed, the father and son drank together...
"Qinghu, my eldest brother didn't tell you that you don't want to start a family at your age. Why? If you really have any ideas, you can tell us and we can discuss it together."
Xu Jin, who had a round belly after eating, leaned back in the chair and squinted his eyes slightly. In Xu Mingshi's eyes, this scene looked very much like the lazy big orange cat he saw in his drawing book.
"Father has promised to let me do whatever I want, so don't worry about me anymore." Xu Yun took a sip of the tea handed to him by the servant and seemed to be soberer.
Xu Jin glanced sideways at his younger brother.
Follow your heart?
Based on the force with which his father patted him on the shoulder just now, did the second brother really have no idea whether he was telling him to do whatever he wanted or a vague threat?
Xu Jin shook his head helplessly.
"Just pretend to be stupid."
Xu Yun stood up noncommittally, and said as if he was still drunk: "Brother knows about me, and I have done everything else I should do, but this is the only thing I really can't do..."
Looking at his brother's back as he staggered away, Xu Jin couldn't help but frown.
Have you done everything else you need to do?
How can a person who can't even get up every day when the weather gets cold have the nerve to say this?
"It's been so many years. If he really doesn't want to say it, why do you have to break the casserole and ask for the truth?" Ms. Cui said to her husband at the side. She had long given up any hope for her second uncle to get married.
However, as soon as she finished her words of advice, she saw her husband's eyes widened slightly and he sat up straighter.
--how?
Ms. Cui looked at him doubtfully.
"By the way, go ask the kitchen if there is any fresh mutton. If there is, quickly cook me a bowl of casserole and bring it to me." Xu Jin ordered the maid next to him.
