There is a tea house in the capital that looks simple from the outside, but is very hidden inside. Because it will not reveal its whereabouts when it comes and goes, it has always been the first choice for dignitaries in Beijing when they have private meetings.

Jing Xiang went into the teahouse, saw the furnishings in the teahouse, and the blind waiters who came and went quietly, and frowned deeply before he knew it.

Xu Zhiyuan, who was originally invited by the Minister of Economics, saw him, but after Xu Zhiyuan accepted the invitation of the Minister of Economics, he said that he would choose the place, and the Minister of Economics agreed.

But Jing Xiang did not expect that Xu Zhiyuan chose this place.

He had also heard about this place, but he had never been here before.

Jingxiang only stood there for a short while, and soon a blind servant walked quietly to a place only one step away from Jingxiang, and whispered: "Please give me the jade."

The minister didn't make a sound, just took out a thin jade tablet from his sleeve and handed it to the blind servant.

After the blind waiter took the jade tablet, he fumbled for a while, then nodded to himself, and said, "Please come this way with me."

As he spoke, the blind servant turned around and walked in one direction.

Looking at the stability of his gait, he is even more discerning.

Jing Xianglue hesitated for a moment, and after deciding to think about it, he stepped up and followed the blind waiter.

Walking down for a while, there are stairs and corridors, but the blind attendant is extremely calm, walking step by step, neither too slow nor too fast.

After a while, the blind servant finally brought the scriptures to the place.

The blind waiter pushed open the outer door, stood at the door, bowed slightly in the direction of the minister, and said, "Here we are, please go in by yourself."

Jing Xiang glanced at the blind waiter, without saying a word, he directly stepped into the inner room.

Who knows that there is another door after one door, and there is still one after entering another door.

There are three doors in full.

The last door didn't need to be opened by Jingxiang, Xu Zhiyuan opened it from the inside first, and stood at the door to greet him, with a sort of refined smile on his face, after seeing Jingxiang, he said: "The Jingxiang is here, hurry up Come in, please."

The prime minister glanced at him, but didn't go in. He just stood there and said, "It's a good place for Master Xu to be elected. I think it's not only a lot of twists and turns, it's also very hidden."

Xu Zhiyuan smiled helplessly when he heard the words, and said: "Mr. Jing wants to meet me, and I also intend to get together with Mr. Jing, but Mr. Jing's current identities are really not suitable for meeting in those places. ah."

"Fortunately, His Highness recommended such a place to me. I saw it was suitable, so I had no choice but to be disrespectful to the Prime Minister and choose this place as a meeting place on my own initiative. I hope that the Prime Minister will be merciful."

Jing Xiang raised his hand to straighten his cuffs, and said, "That's all, it's okay."

Xu Zhiyuan then said immediately: "Then the scriptures minister, please go ahead."

Jing Xiang didn't stop this time, and went in directly.After Xu Zhiyuan closed the door, he turned around and went inside together.

There was no banquet in the inner room, and there was even only a pot of water boiling on the stove.

It was about to boil, and there was a constant gurgling sound from the stove, and a puff of white mist was evaporated from the stove cover, first drifting for a short distance towards the beam top, but soon It disappeared.

Xu Zhiyuan knelt down on his original seat, across a short table, raised his hand to the Jingxiang: "Jingxiang, please sit down."

The prime minister glanced at him, and knelt down on the seat opposite the short case as well.

When Xu Zhiyuan saw the scripture minister sitting down, he reached out to fetch two warm teacups, and while he was busy setting the tea, he chatted with the scripture minister: "I have been idle for the past two days, and I have read a few books about tea. Book, but I remembered that I hadn’t brewed tea myself for a long time, and I happened to meet you today..."

Jing Xiang watched his movements, interrupted his words, and said: "You should understand why I am looking for you today."

After Xu Zhiyuan set the tea, he nodded naturally, took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to the minister.

"The answer you are looking for is all here. You might as well take a look for yourself."

After Jing Xiang took the piece of paper, Xu Zhiyuan withdrew his hand, and while he concentrated on making his tea, he waited for Jing Xiang to finish reading the things on the paper.

After a while, Jing Xiang finished reading what was said on the note, and folded the note as it was.

The minister of scriptures held the note, held it up and looked at Xu Zhiyuan, and asked, "Who wrote this?"

Xu Zhiyuan unhurriedly pushed a cup of tea in front of Jing Xiang, and then said: "I think His Highness's handwriting should be easily recognizable."

Jing Xiang stared at Xu Zhiyuan closely, and asked, "Your Highness? Which Highness?"

Xu Zhiyuan didn't answer but asked instead: "According to the scriptures, which one should be His Highness?"

"You mean..." Jing Xiang understood, but still doubted: "But that His Highness has been in the capital all the time, how did he know such news?"

Xu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Could it be that the Minister of Economics also thought that Your Highness has always been in Beijing?"

Jing Xiang frowned and said: "But I have never heard of that His Highness who handed over any request to leave the capital to the emperor. If the emperor does not approve, that His Highness leaves Beijing without permission, but he will be punished."

Xu Zhiyuan said: "Because of this, even you don't know about the scriptures, His Highness is no longer in Beijing."

Jing Xiang said: "If this is the reason, then that Highness knows the law and broke the law."

"Yes, isn't it just knowing the law and breaking the law?" Xu Zhiyuan sighed and said, "But what can His Highness do? Are you going to let Miss Jing be in danger just because of these four words?"

"How many people have advised His Highness not to go, but do you know, His Highness, she can't bear it..."

"Your Highness can't bear it, what's more, you are still the biological father who always loves Miss Jing, so can you bear to see Miss Jing being harmed by others?"

Jing Xiang listened to Xu Zhiyuan's words, and every sentence was more heartbreaking.

Thinking about what he saw on the paper just now, the anger that had been simmering in his heart since the news of Jingya's disappearance came back became more intense.

Xu Zhiyuan saw the veins on the back of Jingxiang's other hand bulging, so he knew that Jingxiang listened to him.He got up a little bit, took the note in the hands of the priest, turned sideways and threw it into the still burning coals.

Soon, the note was burned to ashes.

Xu Zhiyuan fiddled with the charcoal fire with the tongs, causing the ashes to scatter into the charcoal pile.Putting the tongs aside, Xu Zhiyuan turned back, and said to the sutra: "The things that are written on the paper can only be known by the sutras, and they must not be revealed."

With a gloomy face, Jing Xiang nodded and said, "I know, don't worry."

"Okay, if Jing Xiang is not in a hurry to leave, just have a taste of the tea I brewed. I'll take a step ahead, and Jing Xiang doesn't have to send you off."

After finishing speaking, Xu Zhiyuan stood up, bowed to Xiang Jing and then retreated.

Jing Xiang glanced at the tea on the short table, picked it up and took a sip before putting it back, and then sat in the room for a while before leaving.

……

Everything in the palace is still as usual, and nothing special happened.

Ever since Princess Yiyang was placed under house arrest in the palace by the eldest princess, Princess Yiyang has seldom seen people.Even if she and the queen mother were seen together, they rarely saw each other every day.

Only when the little emperor came to visit the queen mother once in a while, Princess Yiyang would go and accompany her to see her.

But the little emperor was watched by Xu Zhiyuan, and he was busy reading articles every day, and he seldom even had time to play, not to mention how he could read it after taking a break from his homework. Look at the Queen Mother.

So gradually, the little emperor stopped coming, and Princess Yiyang stopped seeing the queen mother.

Being watched in the palace every day, Princess Yiyang can do very little.Every day, besides sleeping with my head covered, when I can’t fall asleep, I get up and stare at the crabapple tree outside the window in a daze, and the only way to relieve my boredom is to drink.

On this day, Princess Yiyang was the same. After getting drunk, she fell asleep on the desk.

When she was in a daze, she suddenly felt someone pushing her, and even whispered in her ear: "Your Highness...Your Highness, don't sleep anymore, there is an important matter..."

Princess Yiyang stretched out her hand to open the man impatiently: "What's the matter...don't bother me with anything..."

The man said: "The eldest princess has left Beijing..."

Elder Princess Yiyang, who was lying on the table, paused for a moment and immediately straightened up. She looked at the person with sharp eyes, without any hint of intoxication, and asked, "Where did the news come from? Is it accurate?"

The woman dressed as a palace maid saluted, bowed her head and replied: "It was reported from the Dachang Princess' mansion."

Elder Duke Yiyang took the initiative, and a small jug in his hand rolled to the ground, making a blunt bang sound, but it didn't break, she smiled coldly at the sound, and said: "She It's really worth it, maybe it's really deeply rooted..."

The woman didn't hear clearly, and asked, "What did Your Highness say?"

"It's nothing." Princess Yiyang waved her hand, raised her hand again and pinched the center of her brows. After she bowed her head in thought for a moment, she slowly ordered, "You... go invite the second lady of the Gu family... just say , just saying that I want to see her..."

The woman didn't ask much, she answered yes after getting the order, turned around and went out to do so.

……

Adjacent to the two sides of Lingyun Pavilion are two palaces, which are specially for those who study in Lingyun Pavilion.

At this time, Lingyun Pavilion was finishing school, and there was time for the students to go back to their residences for lunch and lunch break.

Due to the status of everyone in Lingyun Pavilion, everyone is in a single courtyard, but the two sisters of the Gu family are special, and they live in the same courtyard.

At this moment, the two sisters had just finished eating together, and each went back to the house to prepare for rest.

As soon as Gu Wenqing pushed open the door of her room, she saw a woman standing by the desk with the door behind her back. Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately asked sternly, "Who are you?!"

When the woman heard the sound, she turned around and bowed to Gu Wenqing, and said, "I'm here to deliver a message for Princess Yiyang. Your Highness said that she wants to see you, Miss Gu, and she wants to see you now."

Gu Wenqing didn't expect it to be like this, he was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then asked: "You...what did you say?"

The woman repeated: "I said, Princess Yiyang wants to see you, and she wants to see you right now."

Gu Wenqing's hands twisting the veil were trembling, she bit her lower lip tightly, but she still couldn't believe it easily, and asked: "Your Highness...does she really, really want to see me?"

The author has something to say: what to ask, whether it is or not, you will go.
