snowstorm

Li Mingbei was able to live in the Su residence, but the gold-armored soldiers couldn't. Su was about to make arrangements when Li Ming smiled and waved his hands, saying, "How can you bother Mr. Su, Yi Huan."

"Yes." A young soldier in gold armor came out and saluted Li Mingbei.

Li Mingbei then ordered: "Go to the city and settle down on your own."

"Yes." After receiving his orders, the soldier led them out of the courtyard of the Su residence.

Li Mingbei arranged this way but Su couldn't say anything, so he could only apologize.After speaking, I arrived at Qingfengyuan in Su Mansion, but Su said with a smile: "My lord, please, if you are not satisfied with anything, you don't have to be polite, just speak up."

Li Ming smiled sadly and did not answer.At this time, a servant girl came out from the courtyard. The maid was slender, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, with a little makeup on her face.

When she saw Li Ming and saluted with a sad smile, she bowed her head and waited aside, but Su smiled and said, "During the time my lord lives here, let her serve you." A bit obscene, he rolled his eyes at Li Mingbei meaningfully, and said: "If your lord is not satisfied with her, you can just say it directly, and the next official will be changed for your lord."

Li Mingbei narrowed his eyes to look at the maid, smiled and said to Su Que: "Satisfied, I am very satisfied. Master Su has taken care of you."

Seeing that Li Mingbei's eyes seemed to be glued to the girl's body, Su felt a little more disdainful, but smiled even more on his face. He pretended to speak casually, and said, "Your Excellency first arrived in Yanzhou. Lao Dun, you can rest well today, starting tomorrow, the officials will lead the officials of Yanzhou to clean up the dust for you, what do you think?"

Li Mingbei chuckled when he heard the words, his peach blossom eyes turned up, as if peach blossoms were in full bloom, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Que, and said, "I am very satisfied."

At this point of probing, Su felt even more disdainful towards Li Mingbei, and his vigilance unconsciously vented.Only then did he ask the last words: "Your Excellency is satisfied, the next official can smile even if he dies. I just don't know why Your Excellency came to Yanzhou on this trip?" This is the last test, if Li Mingbei is true Smart, it's time to prevaricate at this time.

Li Mingbei didn't seem to understand the deep meaning of Su Que's words, but just said loudly: "Master Su, don't you really know? You have a county magistrate who sent someone to Jinling to break into the palace and report to His Majesty—" —" After a pause, he smiled even more, and said word by word: "He is suing you, Mr. Su, and all the officials in Yanzhou."

Su Que waved his hands quickly when he heard the words: "My lord, you can't talk nonsense. If you dare to ask your lord, who is that person?" Even though he said this, there was a bit of secret disdain and complacency on his face. .

Li Mingbei looked at the expression on Su Que's face and narrowed his eyes, then spit out two words: "Chen Yi."

But Su pretended to sigh when he heard the words. He twirled his beard and said with a look of grief: "My lord, this is really a coincidence. This person accidentally fell into the water two days ago."

it is as expected.Li Mingbei pretended to sigh, and said with a smile: "The person who complained is dead now, this is a tricky situation."

"No rush, no rush. My lord, just check it out slowly." Su said and cupped his hands towards Li Mingbei: "My lord, the reputation of the lower officials and all the officials in Yanzhou rests entirely on your lord! Your lord's trip. But it must be done, and the truth will be revealed!"

Li Ming looked at him with a sad smile, didn't help him, but said slowly: "Lord Su, don't worry, it's only natural."

……

But what Su said was right, Qingfengyuan is indeed a place for the Su residence to entertain distinguished guests, and all the furnishings inside are exquisite and elegant.Li Mingbei entered the courtyard, and the maid naturally followed.She was about to follow Li Mingbei into the house, when she saw Li Mingbei waved her hand and said: "I'm tired of driving, so you can go and boil some bath water for me."

The servant girl was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said: "Your Excellency, you are joking. Of course, there are servants who specialize in boiling water in our house. When they finish boiling the water, servant girl..." She lowered her eyebrows and eyes shyly. : "How about serving the adults to take a bath?"

Li Mingbei raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "But I like to use the water boiled by a beautiful girl like you, and I like to be served by servants when I take a bath. Don't say any more, go." After saying that, " The door shut with a bang.

The servant girl was stunned for a while, then saw the door opened again, the man had removed his cloak, and was dressed in white at this moment, as clear as a tree, he squinted his eyes at the servant girl, and said: "If this officer finds out, You didn't burn the water..."

The servant girl stared at him with a terrified look, and quickly put on a smile on her face, and said: "Your servant, I'm going to boil water for your lord." Then she turned and left.

Li Ming watched sadly as the maid disappeared, and then closed the door.

Three quarters of an hour after the water was boiled, Li Mingbei sat by the table with his arms propped on the table, leaning on his forehead and watching two young men bring in a wooden bucket, and then poured the freshly boiled hot water into it. bucket.The maid's make-up was not fancy, but there was some sweat on her forehead. She stepped forward and smiled, "The servant has already boiled the water. My lord...do you want the servant to wait for the lord to take a bath?"

Li Mingbei just leaned there lazily, with a half-smile and said: "Didn't I say that, sir? I always like to be served by servants when I take a bath." Instead of making false claims with Su Que's special preparation, it's better to find a stupid Silly boy, it's easy to deal with, and you can talk about it.

The servant girl was stunned for a moment, and the smile on her face was forced to hang on. At this time, the two boys carrying buckets and pouring water were about to go out after finishing their work. The servant girl gritted her teeth and shouted: "Ah Ying!" One of them The boy froze for a moment, but stopped in his tracks.The maid said to the other servant: "You go down first." After saying that, she turned to the young man named A Ying, and said with a smile: "Didn't you listen to what the lord said? Why don't you go wait for the lord to take a bath."

The boy's pupils shrank, but he still answered "yes", and then walked to Li Mingbei's side.The servant girl asked again: "Your Excellency has already been bathed by Ah Ying, I don't know if there is any work for your servant to do?"

Li Mingbei nodded and said: "I always like beautiful people to match the beautiful scenery. I look at the scenery under the tree in the yard. The girl is a beauty, so I went to stand under the tree in the yard to match the beautiful scenery. Right. Remember, you have to be elegant in order to be considered suitable."

The smile on the servant girl's face was almost unstoppable, she said: "But... Your Excellency is taking a bath, so you can't see..."

Li Mingbei raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I can't see it, but I know it's there, so I feel very comfortable."

Maid: "..."

In the end, the maid obediently went to stand under the tree in the courtyard.As soon as the door was closed, only Li Mingbei and the boy named A Ying were left in the room.

Li Mingbei looked him up and down—it was this young man again, so it was fate.He didn't get up either, just leaning on his forehead and raised his chin towards the young man, saying: "Aren't you going to wait for me to take a bath?"

The young man was taken aback for a moment, raised his black and white eyes, and looked at Li Mingbei, and took a step forward, reaching out his hand to untie Li Mingbei's clothes. The hand in front of him was still trembling, so he simply stood up.

"Ah."

With a chuckle, he took off his outer robe neatly and threw it into the boy's arms, while taking off his clothes, he strode towards the bathtub.The body was immersed in hot water, Li Mingbei looked up at the young man, and said: "You can't wait for people to take a bath, you can come here and stand."

The young man pursed his lips slightly when he heard the words, a shallow vortex formed at the corner of his mouth, and his whole face showed a bit of stubbornness.Holding the clothes in his arms, he walked to Li Mingbei's side as he said.Li Mingbei closed his eyes in the steaming heat, felt that someone was standing behind him, and asked, "How old are you?"

The boy said: "Seventeen."

Li Mingbei closed his eyes and smiled: "Well, I'm still young. How many years have you been in this mansion?"

For some reason, the boy was silent for a moment before answering: "Ten years." His voice was slightly hoarse, as if he was trying to suppress some emotion.

Li Mingbei naturally heard it too, but he just asked these questions casually, and he had no intention of caring about the young man's mood, so he suddenly asked, "My lords, what are the most important days in this month?" Are you busy?"

When the boy heard this question, his pupils shrank, and he looked at the person trapped in the white mist with an indescribable expression, and replied: "Our adults are the busiest in this month. There are a few days in the month that are often busy. Go home late." That tone was a little cold for no reason.

Li Mingbei suddenly opened his eyes: It seems that Chen Yi is the water that fell in the middle of this month.

After the young man answered, he tightened his grip on his clothes, and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Your Excellency is from Jinling? Are you here to visit Yanzhou?"

Li Ming laughed sadly, he turned his head, passed through the steaming mist, and met the young beast-like eyes, those peach blossom eyes seemed to be shining brightly in the mist, the eyes were sharp like swords, he saw Looking at the young man, he said, "You are very smart, but you are too young. Tempting people is not like this."

The young man pursed his lips, frowned slightly, his eyes showed a bit of stubbornness, but he didn't answer in the end.

After taking a bath, Li Mingbei went out of the room, and sure enough, he saw the servant girl standing under the tree that had already shed its leaves and looked very bleak, according to his instructions. When she came out, she saluted Li Mingbei Pingpingtingtingly, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, have you bathed? Do you want a servant to serve you?"

Ah Ying happened to be standing next to him at this time, so Li Mingbei took the young man's thin body into his arms, and said to the maid: "I think he is very good at serving me. If you are a girl—" He pointed The grape trellis with dry vines in the yard: "That scene is not bad, let's go."

Maid: "..."

She gritted her teeth, answered "yes" with a smile, and walked over with lotus steps.

The boy was suddenly embraced by him, his black and white eyes widened, he realized it, but he still didn't move, he just let him use himself to punish the maid.When the maid arrived at the grape arbor, he struggled out with some strength, Li Mingbei was not annoyed, he called the boy's name for the first time, and said: "Ah Ying, go and bring that reclining chair here, sir. It's time to enjoy the scenery."

The young man glanced at him, but still answered "yes", and moved the reclining chair in the yard to this place, and Li Mingbei lay down comfortably.The young man glanced at him and said: "If the adults have nothing to do, the villains will go down first."

Li Mingbei raised his brows, and there was a rare half-sincere smile in his peach eyes, he said: "Who says I'm fine?" After finishing speaking, he took the young man's thin wrist, and pulled it hard, the young man snapped Straight into his arms.The wet scent of soap locust mixed with the unique fragrance of this person was overwhelmingly pressed into the tip of the nose, the boy opened his eyes wide, and after realizing it, he couldn't help being angry even if he couldn't bear it anymore.

"you……"

He frowned and looked at the other party, struggling vigorously. Li Mingbei lowered his head and met the young man's beautiful eyes: at this moment, those eyes were no longer as calm as before. A cluster of dazzling angry lights, the eyes seemed to have been washed by water, washed away those disguises, and suddenly became alive.

Li Mingbei had a rare interesting smile on the corner of his mouth: the boy's eyes reminded him of little beasts in the deep mountains...

"Hush," he put a finger between his lips, but put his lips next to the young man's ear, and said softly, "If you play this scene with me, I'll tell you why I came to Yanzhou, how about it?"

The young man was taken aback when he heard the words, and stopped struggling.Li Mingbei lay on the reclining chair, hugged the young man comfortably in his arms, and fed the young man in his arms with snacks from the stone table next to him, squinting his romantic peach eyes to admire the young man under the vine. scene.

As the evening approached, when Su Que entered the Qingfengyuan, what he saw was this scene. He twitched his brows when he saw the girl who was almost unable to stand under the grape vine, but there was still a smile on her face, and she sternly mourned. Seeing him coming in, he didn't get up, just stroked the forehead hair of the boy in his arms, and raised his eyes to look at him: "Master Su, what's the matter?"

Su smiled even more, and said: "It's time for dinner, I'm going to prepare a little wine, Lord Li please treat me with noodles."

Li Mingbei nodded: "It's natural."

But Su looked at the young man in Li Mingbei's arms, and said with a smile, "My lord is not satisfied with Xiao Cui?" Xiao Cui is the maidservant's name.

Li Ming raised his eyebrows sadly, and said: "Satisfied, naturally very satisfied. But—" He lowered his head and stretched out his hand to touch the young man's lower lip: "I am more satisfied with Ah Ying." The young man only felt the tip of his ears when he was treated like this. They were all hot, but he didn't struggle after all, he just pursed his lips and secretly endured.

Su Que frowned, he really didn't expect Li Mingbei to have such a hobby, but the boy looked dumbfounded before, and he didn't look like a talkative person, so Su Que said: "My lord is satisfied It is his blessing. My lord, do you want to move to the dining room now?"

"Go." Li Mingbei pushed the young man away, then stood up leisurely, but Su hurriedly led him away, but Li Mingbei paused, then turned back, stretched out his hand and patted the young man's face lightly, his tone It's [-] points flirtatious and dishonest: "Ah Ying, go back and have a good rest, I'll come to you after I'm done with work."

After saying that, he followed Su Que and left.But seeing his coquettish appearance, Su let go of his vigilance again: It seems that the Son of Heaven is just in vain, sending such an incompetent and pleasure-loving trash to Yanzhou... The rumors are really true, so Li Ming lamented. It's only because of some crooked methods and some connections with the emperor's mother's family that he got this favor...

Li Mingbei followed Su Que into the dining room, and saw that there were already people waiting in the dining room.But Su led a girl to Li Mingbei, and introduced to Li Mingbei with a smile: "This is the little girl Lan Yi." The girl looked at about 20 years old, she was dressed in white, her face was like a lotus, and her lips were bright red. There is a little cinnabar mole between the eyebrows, which adds color but is not too frivolous. It is as gorgeous as peaches and plums, and it is delicious.

She slightly blessed Li Mingbei slightly: "Lan Yi has met Master Li."

Li Mingbei looked at the girl's eyes and narrowed his eyes: in her eyes was something he was too familiar with, he had seen it in Qian Guifei's eyes before, it was an irrepressible ambition.

So he raised his hand with a smile: "You are welcome, girl."

……

night.

After socializing, Li Mingbei went back to his room.The maid naturally let him try to get rid of it.The candlelight on the table was flickering, and he kept secrets in his eyes: the water in Yanzhou is indeed very deep.It can be confirmed today that Su Que must belong to King An, and it is he who will do everything possible to lure His Majesty...

Those peach blossom eyes clearly reflected the bright and warm candlelight, but there was no warmth.

"He's there! Come after him!"

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the house, footsteps mixed with human voices, and Li Mingwei frowned, and suddenly looked in the direction of the door: Su Mansion, what happened...

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open from outside the house with a "snap", and the boy who was still in his arms during the day stumbled in and ran in. He was panting violently, and his fair face was abnormal because of running too fast. the red.

He met Li Mingbei's eyes suddenly, even though he was suppressing it deliberately, there was still fear in his eyes, and there was a slight pleading.

The footsteps and voices were getting closer, Li Mingbei stood up abruptly, then took a few steps and closed the door neatly, then pulled the boy's wrist and walked towards the bed.

Holding the boy's wrist, he threw the boy on the bed, and said a word with no expression on his face: "Take off."

The boy opened his eyes wide, but he gritted his teeth and went to unbutton his shirt.

"too slow."

After Li Mingbei said a word, he quickly tore off the boy's coat.Li Mingbei looked at it and felt that it was not enough, so he started to untie the boy's hair again. The black hair was draped over his shoulders, and according to the boy's eyes that were widened in shock at this time, there was a bit of taste.

Li Mingbei tore off his clothes casually, took the blanket next to him, and half-wrapped the young man, leaving only his shoulders exposed.Lying halfway on the couch, he pulled the boy into his arms forcefully.

Footsteps finally sounded outside the door.The butler's voice came in through the door: "My lord, the villain has no intention of disturbing you, but a thief broke into our house tonight, so I'm afraid it will surprise you." Would you like to see if there are any thieves in the house? —— lest the thieves disturb your lord's sleep."

This is unreasonable, but the meaning is that you must come in and check it out. Li Mingbei narrowed his eyes and lazily called out: "Come in."

The butler carefully opened the door and came in. As soon as he entered, he saw the scene on the bed.I saw Li Mingbei half lying on the couch in disheveled clothes, with a very flirtatious look, tightly clasping a boy in his arms, the boy was facing away from him, with black hair draped over his shoulders, very attractive .

The butler was taken aback, first he looked around to see that there was no place to hide people, and then he apologized to Li Mingbei: "It's a villain's fault to disturb your lord's elegance. If you bother me so much, I hope you will forgive me." He left respectfully and silently.

Seeing people going out, hearing the sound of people's footsteps gradually going away, Li Mingbei let go of the person in his arms. As soon as the boy was let go, he quickly put on the clothes that had been torn into shape, and also He stepped on the ground without putting on his shoes, bowed to Li Mingpei seriously, and said, "Thank you for your kindness today, sir."

As the boy spoke like this, the thing tied with a red string around his neck was exposed.

Li Mingbei smiled and was about to say something when he saw the thing tied to the red string. His pupils narrowed and he was stunned for a rare moment, then he raised his eyes and looked at the boy with something indescribable.

For some reason, his voice became low and hoarse, and he waved at the boy: "Come closer."

The boy was taken aback for a moment, but did as he did.As they got closer, Li Mingbei could see clearly the thing tied to the young man's neck. It was a small piece with irregular shape, but it had been worn away by time.Just looking at the crystal clear, it is very beautiful.This has the body temperature of a teenager.

He rubbed the thing in his hand, and asked in an indescribable tone: "This is just an ordinary stone. Why do you keep wearing it?"

The boy frowned when he heard the words, took the stone back, carefully stuffed it into his clothes, looked at Li Mingpei with stubborn eyes: "This is just a stone to adults, but it is very important to me." thing."

As if seeing him for the first time, Li Mingbei looked at the man carefully, with real warmth in his eyes.After a while, he took the cloak, tied it on the boy carefully, then raised his chin and pointed to the ground: "Put on your shoes."

The boy was wrapped in the warm cloak, his eyes were wide open, Li Mingbei reminded again: "Put on your shoes." The boy gave him an inexplicable and indescribable look, but he still put on his shoes.

Li Mingbei patted his back lightly, and said: "It's getting late, go back to sleep."

The young man could hear the difference in the tone of his words, but he was confused about it. He pursed his lips and looked at Li Mingbei for a while, finally, he saluted Li Mingbei, then turned around and went out the door.

Li Mingbei squinted his peach blossom eyes and looked at the back for a while, then supported his forehead and laughed softly: "I meet an old friend in a foreign land, after all, things are right and people are wrong."

……

the second day.Su Que brought Yanzhou officials to welcome Li Mingbei to wash away the dust, drinking wine, singing and dancing. Li Mingbei readily accepted and got very drunk.

The same is true for the third and fourth days.

On the fifth day, a golden armored soldier named Yi Huan entered the Su Mansion again, and Li Mingbei asked Su Que to resign—it was time to find their little prince, and it was naturally inconvenient to stay in the Su Mansion.

He said: "Thank you Master Su for your kind hospitality these days. However, I'd rather live alone more comfortably."

Su was stunned for a moment, he spoke so directly, it was hard to persuade him to stay, so he apologized and said with a smile: "Then why do you want me to help you find a place to live?"

Li Ming smiled sadly: "No need, Yi Huan has already found a place to live. However, I do have something to tell Mr. Su. I want someone in Mr. Su's house."

But Su hurriedly laughed and said, "Who is your lord looking for?"

Li Mingbei raised his eyebrows and raised his finger in one direction: "He."

But Su looked in the direction of his finger, and saw the boy who was hugged by Li Mingbei that day, he was taken aback, his disdain even worse, but he said with a smile on his face: "My lord thinks he is Just take away his blessings."

"I still want his body deed."

But Su hurriedly said: "Naturally, this is natural. Butler, don't go looking for it yet."

The housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to accept the order: "Yes."

……

Li Ming sadly took the young man into Yi Huan's temporarily rented yard, did not avoid him, and asked, "Have you found the little prince and Gu Wang?"

Yi Huan saluted and said: "I found it. The little prince and the others are in an inn."

Li Ming smiled sadly: "Go and pick them up."

Hearing Li Mingbei's words, the boy in his arms opened his eyes wide.

When Xie Qiao stepped into the temporary study room in the courtyard, Li Mingbei was standing behind the boy, holding the boy's pen to write.

As soon as Xie Qiao and Gu Wang entered the room, they heard the sentence, "Writing requires the strength of the wrist. Look, isn't this handwriting much better than before?" '

Xie Qiao leaned against the door frame and smiled: "It seems that Mr. Gu and I came here by accident."

The young man froze for a moment, then paused the pen in his hand.Li Mingbei let go of his hand and patted the young man's shoulder, looked at Xie Qiao and said, "No, the little prince and Master Gu came just in time."

Xie Qiao raised his chin towards the young man, Li Ming said sadly: "This matter has something to do with him, so it's okay for him to listen here."

Xie Qiao nodded, and asked straight to the point: "Why did my brother come to Yanzhou in person?" Since Li Mingbei came here, it meant that his brother insisted on coming in person.

Li Mingbei stretched out two fingers: "Because of two things."

Xie Qiao frowned: "Which two?"

Li Ming said sadly: "The first thing is what happened in Yanzhou 13 years ago."

Xie Qiao frowned when he thought of the ballad, and Li Mingbei continued: "13 years ago, that is, 20 years of Yuanzhao, there was a severe drought in Yanzhou, and the imperial court clearly allocated funds for disaster relief, but Yanzhou still became a purgatory on earth. Tens of thousands of people died. Yanzhou officials jointly sued Yan Yuanzhou, the magistrate of Ning County, for embezzling relief funds. The late emperor was furious and beheaded Yan Yuanzhou.

Xie Qiao sneered when he heard this: Tens of thousands of people died of starvation, how could it be because of a county magistrate.

Li Mingbei knew what Xie Qiao meant, so he continued: "Just last month, an official from Yanzhou, Chen Yi, sent someone to Jinling to deliver a secret report, and he completely turned the case around. Yan Yuanzhou was wronged to death for the officials who coveted the life-saving food of the common people. He didn't hand over any evidence, but just presented a song, and His Majesty was furious."

Xie Qiao's pupils shrank: the ballad should be the one he heard, that's why his brother went to Yanzhou in such a hurry in his last life.Even if this happened 13 years ago, tens of thousands of lives were at stake, and his brother would naturally have to find out the truth.This case is too long in the past, there is no evidence, and so many officials are involved. If you want to try it, you have to try the officials one by one. If there is no evidence, if you want to interrogate officials, only the Son of Heaven has the qualifications.If this case really wants to be reversed, only his elder brother can come in person...

"Also," Li Mingbei's eyes were secretive: "Su is a member of King An. I sent someone to investigate Chen Yi. He is a member of Su Que. He is usually greedy for life and afraid of death. He is not a noble person at all. People. Now Su Que has murdered him and silenced him."

Xie Qiao frowned fiercely, he clenched his fists tightly, a cold light flashed across his eyes, and said each word: "You mean, Su deliberately instructed Chen Yi to sue himself and the officials of Yanzhou, and he filed the case against him. Turn it over, just to lure my brother to Yanzhou?"

Li Mingbei narrowed his eyes: "That's right." He looked at a corner of the sky outside the door, and said, "But no matter what the purpose of this case was uncovered, since it involved so many lives, it must be investigated clearly. The water has come to light. This is His Majesty's intention."

Xie Qiao sighed slightly: "They have made good plans. If there is no evidence, we will not be able to interrogate unless my brother comes in person."

"There is evidence!" At this moment, the pen in the boy's hand fell to the table with a thud, and a large amount of ink was blurred. He stepped forward and looked up at Xie Qiao. His eyes were red, and there seemed to be endless The flames burned, and he knelt on the ground, two lines of tears streaming down his face.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I have silently memorized the account books and roster that Su Que burned back then. As long as you give me time, I will write out every single word. I only beg your lord and Your Highness! To avenge my father! To Yanzhou An explanation for the tens of thousands of innocent souls who starved to death!" The voice was full of blood and tears, and seemed to contain deep-seated hatred.

Xie Qiao lifted him up, looked at Li Mingbei, Li Mingbei closed his eyes, and said, "His surname is Yan, and his name is Yan Ying." Yan Ying seemed a little surprised that Li Mingbei knew his surname, and her pupils slightly Shrunk.He knew that Li Mingbei was from Jinling back then, so he deliberately sprinkled water on him to test whether he was a good person. Sneaked into Su Que's study secretly, but was accidentally discovered, and that's why he was chased...

But he never expected that Li Mingbei would have known his last name for a long time...

Li Mingpei glanced at him but didn't answer: Back then, he met a three-year-old child in Yangzhou, and he only knew the child's last name was Yan.The child gave him a meal, but he only returned a broken stone.After going around for a while, he met this child again in Yanzhou. It was a coincidence and it was easy to guess: Yanzhou, Yan's surname, and the servant of Su Que's house, it is very easy to contact who is the father of this child.

Xie Qiao said to the young man seriously: "You have helped a lot. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation."

Yan Ying looked at Xie Qiao and nodded heavily.

Xie Qiao said again: "Only physical evidence is not enough."

Gu Wang who was on the side opened his mouth at this time, he looked at Xie Qiao, and said word by word: "Little prince, 13 years is not long, and the people who experienced the disaster back then are all witnesses."

Xie Qiao smiled when he heard the words, and said: "It seems that Mr. Gu and I have something to do." That is to find as many survivors as possible who have personally experienced that year, and they are all witnesses.

Li Ming nodded sadly: "During this time, Yanying wrote those things silently, as for me—" He smiled: "Of course I messed around with Su Que and the others." This is to let Su Que focus on him , so that Xie Qiao can be concealed and smooth.

After everything was arranged, Xie Qiao raised an eyebrow at Li Mingbei and said, "You just said that there are two things. What is the second thing?"

Li Mingbei suddenly looked at Xie Qiao with an indescribable look, which seemed to be mixed with a little sympathy, Xie Qiao was so aroused by that look that he felt uncomfortable all over, so he frowned and said, "If you have something to say, tell me quickly." , it's not like you to hesitate like this."

Li Ming sighed sadly, stared at Xie Qiao for a while, and then said: "Little prince, if I tell you that there may still be a person with your blood in this world, what will happen to you?"

Xie Qiao shrank his pupils and opened his eyes wide. He was stunned for a while, his voice trembling when he spoke, and he asked word by word: "You, what do you mean by this?"

Li Mingbei took out a jade tablet from his pocket and handed it to Xie Qiao.

Xie Qiao saw the jade tablet shaking suddenly. He reached out to take the jade tablet, his hands trembling slightly. , exactly the same as his piece.Xie Qiao closed his eyes, and touched the words on the back of the jade tablet with his fingers.

A "help" word.

Behind his jade tablet was engraved with the word "Joe".

"There is Fusu in the mountains, and lotus in Xi... There are Qiaosong in the mountains, and Youlong in Xi..." It is said that this poem by Zheng Fengli is the favorite song of his mother and concubine. She sang this song back then. The song dies... the "Joe" in his name comes from this poem...

Fu character, Fu Su's Fu character...

Looking at Xie Qiao's appearance, Li Mingbei sighed, and said, "The second thing is this jade tablet. But Su sent someone to present this jade tablet to His Majesty."

Xie Qiao held the jade tablet tightly, his eyes were red, and his jaw trembled slightly: In this way, everything will be cleared. No wonder his elder brother was so anxious to go to Yanzhou. The case to be dealt with, the second—is this jade tablet.

Xie Qiao gritted his teeth and closed his eyes: No wonder his elder brother was assassinated and killed by an assassin even though he was wearing a golden armored bodyguard. If... if the person behind the man holding the jade card lures him to go alone, his elder brother is very affectionate, I won't go at all...

There is another possibility, but he didn't dare to think about it anymore... He gritted his teeth and forced himself to face that possibility: If so, the owner of this jade card is the person behind it?

"Where is he?" After a while, Xie Qiao suddenly opened those handsome eyebrows and asked in a hoarse voice.

Li Mingpei glanced at him, and said, "I don't know. I tried it out, but Su refused to tell."

Xie Qiao vented overwhelming hostility in his brows and eyes, and he repeated word by word: "Su, but."

……

Jizhou.
