Restore my old mountains and rivers

Qin Zhou thought that he might as well go with his relatives, but in this empty room, he probably had to starve to death.

At this time, his stomach, which was already unconscious, was hooked by the food in front of him and began to protest. The pain caused by hunger was too uncomfortable, he thought so, and stretched out his hand uncontrollably to the food box.

The food that seemed to make people move their index fingers was put into his mouth, but Qin Zhou was chewing on it.He chewed mechanically, and suddenly burst into tears.

They're all excuses, obviously you don't want to die yet.Yes, he thought, he didn't want to die yet.

He began to gulp things into his mouth, since he is still alive in this world, then don't disappear so easily.

Wu Wu saw that Qin Zhou had finished eating, so he sat with him silently for a while as usual, then closed the door and left.Qin Zhou once again lived a muddle-headed life.

After a few days, the person who opened the door this time was not Wuwo, but the guard who escorted him here a few days ago.

He once again stood in Chen's court, and this time the emperor treated him with courtesy, even if it was only on the surface, it was really commendable.

The emperor kindly excused him, gave him a seat, exchanged pleasantries with him, and then ordered someone to bring up an agreement.

I didn't ask him to look at it or give any explanation, just asked him to sign it.

Qin Zhou probably knew in his heart what he was signing, but he had no choice but to obey.

As expected, after they showed the item to the emperor, the emperor said:

"After listening to the advice from the ministers, I thought about it carefully all afternoon, and I still think it's better to follow the wishes of the lovers. I signed a subsidiary agreement with Chen that month, and let His Royal Highness be a guest in Chen Jiujiu."

Qin Zhou didn't seem to have much reaction, and thanked the emperor politely and thoughtfully.

Seeing this, the emperor nodded in satisfaction, and continued his words:

"General Yan Yunliu has contributed a lot to this victory. General Yan, come forward to receive the reward."

A tall man dressed in black armor stepped forward. The powerful aura around him was so overwhelming that one could hardly lift his head. The evil spirit of fighting on the battlefield for many years made him incompatible with this place. The appearance of splashing on the spot.

Qin Zhou raised his head and stared at his back. He was the murderer who directly killed his relatives and his enemy!

Yan Yunliu seemed to be aware of it, looked back, and looked at Qin Zhou casually——

With just one glance, cold sweat dripped down Qin Zhou's forehead.

His enemies are too powerful, whether it is Yan Yunliu or Chen Guo, he is like an ant in front of Mount Tai.

But it doesn't matter, he will live here for a long time, whether it is ten years or twenty years, he will make them pay the price!

Qin Zhou looked to the north. He had only left home not long ago, and he already missed that piece of land very much.

He was placed in a deep house in the capital. It was spacious, but it seemed to be old, and time had left signs of dilapidation on it.Fortunately, Qin Zhou couldn't care about anything, it would be nice to have a normal house to live in.

Even the few servants are bestowed by the emperor, and anyone with a discerning eye knows what that means.They were still afraid that Qin Zhou would be dishonest.

However, he couldn't do anything these days, and Qin Zhou began to adjust his attitude.Anyway, my money is also used by Chen, so I can't take it easy.

But in addition, he has a regular customer, no self.

The monk seemed to be very sorry for him, and would come to visit him every now and then, not caring about the emperor's eyeliner at all, and would occasionally advise him not to indulge in pleasure.

Qin Zhou was annoyed when he saw no self, and at least three times out of five times he came to the door, he was turned away.

One night, Qin Zhou just came back from the most famous Hualiu Lane in the capital.Today, he booked the entire Bright Moon Pavilion on a whim, played around with the girls and drank all the wines in the pavilion, he was really dizzy.As if he was stepping on cotton, he swayed in the direction of the house by himself.In addition to the strong smell of alcohol on his body, there was also a subtle fragrance that was not easy to detect.

But when he approached the door of his house, he saw a yellow figure standing in front of the door.

Qin Zhou was at a loss for a moment. He stepped forward curiously, walked around the door, and finally realized:

"This is not my house! I went wrong, I went wrong! This man——" He raised his head and looked at Wuwo, as if hesitating that this is a bald donkey.After a pause, he changed his words, "This master, you are being abrupt, I'll leave now."

When Qin Zhou turned around and was about to take a step, Wu Wo grabbed his back collar.He smelled the smell of alcohol on the other person's body, and frowned: "Drunk?"

Drunk people will of course answer: "I'm not drunk! I'm not!"

Wu Wo stopped talking, and he directly lifted Qin Zhou and kicked open the door of Qin Mansion.

"Hey——Master, your skill is not bad!"

"Where are the people in your house?"

Qin Zhou seemed to be thinking about their names, frowning and biting his lips, struggling for a while, and finally said: "Xiuyu! Xiulan! Xiuchun!"

After calling several times but no one answered, he turned his head and said to Wuwo, "They're not here."

Wu Wo looked at him, this was the first time he saw Qin Zhou smile these days.

He sighed and said, "It's even more worrying to get rid of your sorrows with wine."

Qin Zhou looked at him inexplicably, and suddenly shouted: "No self."

I also looked at him seriously.

Qin Zhou smiled again: "I'm not drunk, I know who you are." He pushed Wuwu away and walked to his bedroom by himself.He added, "I also know that they are going to report on their tasks, and report what I have done during this time."

Wuwo was pushed away and followed behind, watching his footsteps so that he would not fall suddenly.

Although Qin Zhou was unsteady, he miraculously walked to the bedroom by himself.

Unexpectedly, Qin Zhou stopped in front of the bed, Wu Wu was at a loss, but he couldn't be angry with Qin Zhou's appearance.

When Wuwo was still waiting for Qin Zuzong's next move, when he saw him turn around suddenly, he grabbed Wuwo's ​​shoulders with both hands and fell backwards.

Now Wuwo is very close to him, he can see Qin Zhou's flushed face, red eyes, and lips that smell of alcohol.

He watched Qin Zhou raise his hand to touch his face, and also smelled the faint fragrance on Qin Zhou's sleeve, then Qin Zhou hugged him tightly, buried him in his neck and rubbed against him like a small beast.

Wuwo froze, but he didn't stop Qin Zhou's movements.

Qin Zhou didn't seem to be satisfied yet, he let go of his selflessness again, his eyes searched for a while, finally found the target, lowered his head again, and kissed his lips.

"Monk, if you pester me like this again, I'm going to like you."

The author has something to say: Look! ! !It's sugar! ! !

General Yan is a very good villain, do you want to pick him up (whispered

☆、Chapter 20

In the world, there is only one word of love, which cannot be seen through or understood.

While feeling the turbulent waves in my heart, Wuwo had to watch Qin Zhou sleep peacefully and leave without shaking his sleeves.

Is he tempted?To be honest, he didn't know.He remembered the two of them getting along peacefully in the monk's house, and he also remembered that he carried Qin Zhou on his back and walked home under the starry sky of the prairie, and he remembered the embarrassment of his country being ruined and his family becoming a prisoner...

Perhaps it was because of compassion that he felt guilty about it and tried to make it up to him.Perhaps from the very first side, this fateful calamity was doomed.

Wu Wo heard the movement of several servants coming back. In order not to be honest, he avoided them, went to the bottom of the wall, turned over the eaves neatly, and then disappeared into the boundless night.

When Qin Zhou was sober, what greeted him was a splitting headache after a hangover.He stood up clutching his head, and Xiuchun who was waiting at the side thoughtfully brought a bowl of hangover soup.

Qin Zhou took it naturally, and asked her with grinning teeth: "I just remember drinking with my sisters yesterday, and I got a little over the top. How did I come back?"

Xiuchun paused, and immediately straightened her words: "It was the boy in the building who sent you back."

"Well, that's all I do. I don't remember anything when I'm drunk. You took care of me hard last night, didn't you?"

"This is all a servant's job, don't you say that." Xiuchun replied in fear, as she was about to kneel down and grab the ground with her head, Qin Zhou stepped forward to support her.

"Okay, I don't have a plug in my mouth, don't kneel. I'm fine, you go down."

Xiuchun responded and quickly backed away.

Qin Zhou turned his face away and finally relaxed.It seems that they really don't know, Qin Zhou thought, but there is no self... Yesterday's wine was really strong and cowardly, maybe it's time for him to relieve it?You can even talk to a bald donkey, tsk.

Thinking of Wuwo Qin Zhou feels upset, as soon as Wuwo appears, he will bring him back to the fact that he is down and out, but he is actually afraid in his heart that Wuwo no longer cares about him.

Qin Zhou shook his head, put aside these messy thoughts, and simply thought about which family's dude disciples should be invited out to have fun today.

A few months passed in a flash, and I never went to see Qin Zhou again. At this time, Qin Zhou began to think about him again, but he didn't dare to take the initiative to bother him, so he could only bear it.

But then something unexpected happened to Qin Zhou and even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Wuwo said to the emperor one day: "The poor monk sees that today's celestial phenomena are different, and he occupies a hexagram. The stars rise and the generals come out. Deduce it, it must be Qin Zhou."

Everyone thought that the national teacher was crazy, or that the proton had given him some appalling ecstasy, and he would do whatever the national teacher said.Qin Zhou was labeled for no reason, with a dazed expression on his face.

The emperor has always trusted the national teacher, or he is obsessed with Buddhism.As the youngest Hui monk, the national teacher was called the guru early on, and the master and uncles were full of praise when he mentioned it. When he was a teenager, he practiced hard work by himself, and his debating scriptures was also well-known.

It is said that in the early days, the emperor felt that his body was going from bad to worse, and he couldn't think about it.People tend to get confused when they are old, and the emperor also started to follow those paths, praying to gods and worshiping Buddha.

Unexpectedly, in the temple where Wuwo was, I met Wuwo who was still young. I wanted to test him on a whim, but unexpectedly, I was dismissed by him.

After hearing the words "Your Majesty has only been with the present, why not be with the past?", I don't know if it is a partial truth that the emperor has figured out or it is really so clever. Anyway, the emperor confessed such a yellow-mouthed child as a national teacher .

Civil and military officials all stared at Wu I. If there was anything worth taking advantage of, they would write notes and play them vigorously.As a result, he is an honest chant, not a demon.Everyone was disappointed.

What's more, later on, selfless divination, healing, and praying for blessings are all real skills, and there are more and more incense sticks in the national temple, so they can't afford to peck at them anymore.

How do you know that the national teacher has suddenly committed a crime?Sure enough, that month and Qiang Yang's witchcraft were very evil.The emperor thought about it, but decided to make himself more sensible, and asked aloud: "How did the national teacher come to this conclusion?"

"It's from astrology." Wuwo looked calm, as if he didn't understand the meaning behind the emperor's words.

The emperor rubbed his forehead in a complicated mood. After getting along for so many years, he also knew the temperament of the national teacher, and most of them told the truth.But this is so true that no one can believe it, and no one dares to believe it.

The emperor was also a little scared, what if something happened if he didn't follow the Buddha's will?But letting a proton be a general, isn't it obvious that you give the military power to others?

The emperor was deeply depressed because of the words of the national teacher, dismissed the national teacher, and summoned his own sons.

The crown prince Chen Chen's natural aptitude is not as good as that of the second prince Chen Yi, and he has never found anyone around him who can make a job.The third prince, Chen Yao, is still young and not born well, so he has no competitiveness.Everyone pretended to be confused, but the emperor still favored the crown prince. He glanced at his sons standing in a row, and said, "What do you think about this matter? Come and answer."

Although the crown prince is not smart, he is also a prudent and steady man, but he is not too fond of ghosts and snakes, so this matter is a very good choice for him: "I think it is better not to let the proton control the military power. "

The second prince listened to the prince's proposal, but on the surface he acted as if he listened carefully, and also appeared to be open-minded, without arrogance or rashness in dealing with things.He waited patiently for the crown prince to finish speaking, then straightened his sleeves, bowed deeply, and said, "I also ask Father to allow this proposal."

The prince's rhetoric just now was still lost to everyone, and the emperor was a little impetuous after hearing it, and maybe he didn't agree with this view in his heart.The second prince's unexpected request inevitably aroused his interest.

The emperor asked, "Why?"

"One is Qiangyang, and my father has also seen it. As long as they are not too powerful, the two countries will always check and balance each other. Then we can win Qiangyang and use that month? Even if Qin Zhou wins When there is a storm, they must also think about their sworn enemy.

"Secondly, we can continue to send people to monitor him. Besides, the military power must be won in actual combat. If he hadn't really worked for Chen Guo, he would not be able to get the military power and the general's heart. But when he got it, he Will the compatriots of that month still trust him as before?

"Thirdly, since the god said that he is a general, isn't that also a sign that Qin Zhou has no emperor's life? Father, let's take a gamble."

After hearing this, the emperor held his breath, clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, this remark is quite novel, and it shocked me too!" to his heart.But the next moment, the emperor lowered his face, "It's not like the emperor alone can express such a vision."

Chen Yi admitted it generously: "It was discussed by Erchen and Mr. Jiang all night long."

There was no sign of anger on the emperor's face, he just nodded and said, "Then I won't be yours anymore."

Chen Yi didn't have any objection after listening, just agreed, and even looked at the prince and smiled.

The emperor looked at the third prince. The child was most afraid of facing the scene of reciting books and doing homework, so he clutched his brother's sleeve nervously.Chen Yi also patted the young man's hand with his sleeve, and cast an encouraging look at him. The young man took a few deep breaths, and then said in a volume that people around him would listen to closely:

"I, I think Brother Second Emperor's opinion is very good..."

Seeing this, Chen Yi turned to look at his younger brother, and sighed softly, with helplessness and pampering in his eyes.

The emperor looked at his youngest son, and couldn't bear to scold him, so he said: "Don't rely too much on your second brother."

Chen Yao bit his lip, blushed, and said, "My son, my son really thinks that the Second Emperor's opinion is very good."

Seeing this, Chen Yi hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "The civil and military opinions of the Manchu Dynasty are consistent, and the emperor must not be able to think of other arguments for a while."

The emperor finally solved a big rock in his heart, and seeing that these juniors were much more pleasing to the eye than usual, he stopped holding them and allowed them to retreat.

As soon as Chen Yi went out, he saw Jiang Wenyu who was waiting outside the door. When the prince saw him, his heart was clear and he said goodbye to them.Jiang Wenyu glanced at Chen Yao, and Chen Yi stared at their younger brother's head with wide eyes, signaling Jiang Wenyu not to avoid it.

Jiang Wenyu asked, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Chen Yi said with a smile: "Father is very hot, I know that I did not say this, and it is not my fault."

Jiang Wenyu's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned and said, "Your Highness..."

It doesn't matter to me, this is just a trivial matter, as long as the father accepts the idea of ​​making Qin Zhou a general, it will be easy to talk about in the future. "

"Why are you so obsessed with Qin Zhou?"

There was undisguised ambition in Chen Yi's eyes: "Because Chen Guo's territory cannot allow others to spy on it."

When Qin Zhou received the imperial decree, he almost trembled and couldn't kneel.This is simply great luck falling on his head!His eyes are full of bloodthirsty killing intent, so it won't take too long, besides revenge, he can even take that moon back, and he can see the day when that moon will flourish again!

Qin Zhou closed his eyes and thought about what his father said to him before, that many people want this seat, and those who sit in it will not agree to share it with others.

He will do his best to get that position even if he doesn't care about his life!

Who made him perfect? ​​Qin Zhou raised the corner of his mouth, saying it was selfless.

This is the first time he has visited Wuwo since he came to Chen. Qin Zhou was dressed in a new official uniform, and stood in front of the hall ostentatiously waiting for the national teacher.The pilgrims looked sideways, and the novice couldn't take it anymore, and stepped forward: "You should go in and wait for the national teacher..."

Seeing the shaman sweating profusely, Qin Zhou had no intention of making things difficult for him, so he agreed.

The monk let out a long breath, turned left and right and led him directly to a monk's house.

Seeing this, Qin Zhou raised his eyebrows: "This is?"

"The time when the national teacher often went out was with you. Presumably the relationship between the national teacher and you is very good. It happens that there are many pilgrims and there is no room available during this time. I hope you don't mind."

Qin Zhou patted him on the shoulder appreciatively: "I don't mind, let's go."

Seeing the shaman disappear in a flash, Qin Zhou opened the door in front of him.The inside is a little monotonous, just tables, chairs, beds, and other furnishings, but it is not empty, because there are bookshelves full of books, and there is a small Buddhist altar in the corner, and the incense offerings in front of it have not been burned.The abundance of Buddhist scriptures actually gave him a sense of ease and ease. He didn't take too much offense before flipping through them. He just sat at the low table and waited for the owner of the monk's house to come back.

After waiting for about an incense stick, Qin Zhou read the names on the cover of the Buddhist scriptures on the bookshelf three times, one by one, before there was a sound outside the door.

He looked up at the appearance of the person he hadn't seen in a few months, the eyebrows and eyes that he thought about, the slightly curved lips, and the familiar outline.He stared at the opening and closing of those lips: "Why is General Qin here?"

Qin Zhou rolled his eyes: "This name is pleasant to my ears, please call it more."

The monk looked at the high-spirited man in front of him, but unexpectedly his face darkened: "It's better for the general to have less contact with poor monks now."

Qin Zhou put away his smile, his eyes narrowed: "What? The title of general was won by the national teacher for me, why can't we communicate?"

"The general is worrying too much, I'm just following the instructions of the astrology."

The familiar and reassuring voice that rang in his ears countless times told him so.

Qin Zhou's expression turned cold: "Is what the teacher said really true?"

"really."

Qin Zhou was speechless, and the two of them were silent for a while, before Qin Zhou got up with a sigh: "Well, I'm just pretending to be sentimental, why would my master make up gods and Buddhas for a dog like me?"

Wu Wo looked at Qin Zhou's back, his back seemed to have collapsed again, being pressed very low, with the shadow of a pitiful little animal discarded by the owner, but he was deeply tired.

I didn't call out to him.

Qin Zhou finally realized clearly that selflessness cannot be his dependence and backing.No self is out of the whole thing, like a Buddha with a benevolent brow, and only the safety of the people in Dachen is in his heart.Qin Zhou's position is different from his, or he is on the opposite side.

He thought about the way the other party always showed him caring, this is really bad...

He was thinking, but he heard someone calling his name, he turned his head, it was Jiang Wenyu.

Qin Zhou didn't have a big impression of this secretary supervisor, but seeing the other party being so condescending, Qin Zhou wanted to reward him no matter what. He cheered up and saluted Jiang Wenyu: "What's the matter, my lord?"

Jiang Wenyu looked at the determination and unyielding humanity in his eyes and said: "The second prince appreciates the general very much, and wants to invite you to enjoy tea with him. I wonder if the general is willing?"

Qin Zhou thought about the gossip and gossip that was spread when he was playing with those dudes before, and decided to give it a try. He cupped his hands to Jiang Wenyu and said, "I'm not very honored."

The author has something to say: I'm sorry for the late update, I've made you feel so tired.

The memory killing is over here, and Zhou Zhou's scumbag revenge is next (

In addition, why do you have to wait for a long update... because I will go on a trip tomorrow, and I will stop updating for three days. I hope everyone understands. I will adjust my state and continue to work hard when I come back.

☆、Chapter 21

The emperor died.

Qin Zhou and Wuwo rushed back all the way without stopping, and the capital was already completely deserted.

Everywhere you look is white, as if the winter in Chen Guo has come early.From the earth-shattering cries and the permeating sadness, one can feel the shock of the whole country, and it also gives people a feeling of chills in the back for no reason. It seems that this is Chen's most miserable moment.

Qin Zhou and his party also showed mournful expressions. Everyone lowered their heads in silence and drove towards the palace.

There were people everywhere in the palace, and they hurried back and forth without making any sound.It seemed that the whole palace fell into silence after the death of the emperor, and they still couldn't break this convention, even if they obviously couldn't wake up a dead person.

Qin Zhou and Wu Wo rushed to the emperor's bedroom. All the royal family members were there, and some officials were there. They knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.Qin Zhou and the two also went forward, knelt down in front of the emperor's coffin, and kowtowed three times.

After that, Wuwo stepped back to ask the people in the Ministry of Rites when the funeral ceremony for the emperor would be held, but he heard unexpected news: the emperor was poisoned and the murderer had not been found out, so the funeral cannot be held for the time being.

Qin Zhou listened to it, and said in surprise, "I thought I was waiting for the teacher, so the filial piety has passed and the ceremony hasn't started yet."

The second prince who was opposite him straightened up when he heard the words, exchanged a glance with him, then shook his head without looking for any trace.

Qin Zhou frowned when he saw this.It's not his own person, so the second prince is not expected to be so unsteady, but who is so courageous to poison the emperor in this limelight?Either desperate or insane.

But this is not something that Qin Zhou and the others should be in charge of. Someone will investigate.Wuwo had already chanted the scriptures, so Qin Zhou had to retreat first. When he left, he glanced at the coffin, thinking that he should check it out quickly, otherwise no one would feel bad if the corpse rotted.He always had a bad premonition that killing the emperor would not bring him any benefits, and only those who obtained this country would be blessed with inexhaustible blessings. No one would do such a risky thing for no reason.

Maybe Qin Zhou's mouth was opened by someone recently, and he was so accurate.Before he returned to the mansion, he was stopped by someone and walked back. It was Jiang Wenyu who sent someone to look for him, saying that the murderer had been found out, and it was His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

Qin Zhou thought, isn't this just nonsense, people are not so short-sighted, and it is estimated that Dali Temple couldn't find it out and made it up.

When Qin Zhou arrived, they had already surrounded Chen Yi. The third prince saw that he was crying while trying to save his brother, but luckily he was stopped outside.Qin Zhou looked at the chaotic situation, then sneered and glanced at Jiang Wenyu who was about to speak but no one was paying attention to him, then went up and slipped away the two guards.

Everyone noticed Qin Zhou's movements, and finally became quiet, and they all looked at him in unison.

He kowtowed at the emperor's coffin again and turned his head to express his apology, then stood up unhurriedly and bowed to everyone: "I think Mrs. Jiang has been wanting to speak, but because everyone is arguing too hard, I can't get in, so I have no choice but to speak up." Help him."

Jiang Wenyu wanted to talk, but he didn't want to be taken advantage of for no reason. He bit the bullet and faced Qin Zhou's unkind gaze diverted by Qin Zhou's few words, and said, "It is not possible to jump to conclusions that the second prince is behind the scenes. The slave's one-sided words, you have not found any evidence to prove His Highness's relationship with that slave, what if the villain deliberately framed it? I beg you to let me and General Qin find out the truth for Your Highness!"

Dali Siqing is a grey-haired veteran, seeing Jiang Wenyu so questioning the case he investigated, he was so angry that he kept stroking his beard.The old man suppressed his anger and listened to him, then waved his hand to signal him to go, and remained silent.It looked like he wanted Jiang Wenyu to have a hard time investigating the case himself.

Jiang Wenyu looked confident, seeing that he was allowed, he saluted him respectfully, and led Qin Zhou to investigate the case.

Qin Zhou was caught as a coolie because he couldn't control his mouth again and provoked others. He waited bitterly for Jiang Wenyu to tell him the story of the case.

"Your Majesty's corpse showed a poisoning reaction, his whole body was bruised and swollen, and there were scratches on his mouth. But His Majesty only had one meal, and the onset time was only half a stick of incense, and there was no problem when using silver needles and people to try dishes. Wu made an inspection After eating the food His Majesty ate, each of them was tested by human beings, and it was found that the same cured meat was poisonous, and it only took a lot of it to be effective."

"Bacon? It's rare in Chen Guo."

"Yes, I interrogated the Imperial Dining Room. A person in charge of the laundry room in the backyard brought the spoon from the laundryman in the backyard. The laundryman said he brought it from his own home for the person in charge of the spoon to taste. It happened that His Majesty was not feeling well that day, so he insisted on eating something salty. , They couldn't find the ingredients, tried it themselves and it was fine, so they presented it to His Majesty."

Qin Zhou laughed when he heard this: "How can it be such a coincidence?"

Jiang Wenyu glanced at him, and asked him to listen carefully: "The slave who was interrogating the laundry was stubborn at first, saying that no one ordered him, but after the punishment was severe, he said that His Highness told him to bring it to the imperial dining room. "

Qin Zhou listened to him patiently, and said: "Empty talk is useless... Where are we now? Go and ask that slave? You are not afraid of torture, so I am afraid that you will not be able to ask anything."

Jiang Wenyu said to him: "Go to the laundry room and ask, I don't believe there is no evidence of his dealings with the murderer."

The two rushed to the laundry room aggressively. The supervisor of the laundry room almost didn't get down when he saw them.A skinny woman who was about to reach middle age fell on the ground and cried: "My lord! We really don't know anything, my lord! Don't force your slaves anymore... I beg you... .”

Qin Zhou looked gloomy. He and Jiang Wenyu looked at each other. Jiang Wenyu said, "It's okay to live in the same room with the man who brought the bacon, or make friends with him."

"My... my lord, that guy usually ignores others, and he looks very high on himself. We didn't talk to him much."

Jiang Wenyu lowered his face: "Where is the roommate? Come out!" Qin Zhou cooperatively drew a knife from his waist.

When these people saw this posture, their legs became weak, and they pushed and shoved. After a while, a thin child who seemed to be more likely to break than the sapling next to him was pushed out.

Seeing him like this, the two were speechless.

Jiang Wenyu paused before asking him: "Have you seen anything unusual about him recently? When did he go out for a long time? Or have you seen his piece of bacon?"

The child has also been interrogated repeatedly, and when he heard his words, he just said: "I only saw his piece of meat! Take it out and show it to me, then take it back! I really don't know."

Qin Zhou watched the child pinch his thigh desperately to keep himself from shaking, so he slowed down, squatted down and smiled at him, his eyes drifted to his sunken stomach, and said, "Look at that piece of meat on him, isn't it? Especially gluttonous? It’s salty and savory, and it should be very chewy when chewed, so I’m afraid it’s very filling.”

Sure enough, when talking about food, the child's eyes turned green, and he swallowed a mouthful of water and said, "Yes! He even smelled it for me, it was delicious! But he only showed off, and he didn't let me eat... Said it was brought from his hometown in the north."

Qin Zhou raised his chin triumphantly at Jiang Wenyu, and said persistently, "Then...is there anything unusual about him, like when he suddenly tempted you with meat?"

The child's eyeballs rolled around and thought for a while: "No more."

Qin Zhou frowned, and gave Jiang Wenyu a look with his eyes: "Really?"

The child was really afraid of Jiang Wenyu. In the child's eyes, his appearance as a poor scholar was that of a man who whipped people with a cane.In desperation, he really thought of something: "Yes! Yes, yes! One night when I got up in the middle of the night, I saw him holding a shiny object and looking under the window."

"Do you know what it is?"

"I didn't look carefully. He was so smart that he covered the things in his hands as soon as he heard the movement."

"Where is his house?" Jiang Wenyu asked, Qin Zhou hurriedly pulled the child to get up, and the two planned to go in and have a look.

The author has something to say: Come back!

☆、Chapter 22

It was a cramped and cramped room, and when I opened the door, I was overwhelmed by dust and a strange accumulated smell.The two of them took a while to bow their bodies in. They could barely stand up straight inside, but they could touch the edge of the door as soon as they raised their hands.The windows were also short, so the light did not squeeze in. The dim light made the room even more oppressive, and it seemed to cover their mouths and noses. The stuffy air was too difficult to breathe.

Like a loach, the child rubbed past the two of them, pointed to one of the beds that couldn't even stretch out, and said, "This is where he sleeps, but an adult with a knife has come to look through it." It's over, things are thrown all over the place, and they can't be found at all."

Qin Zhou looked at the messy beds. He had expected it a long time ago, and it was a big project to search slowly in this pile.

He watched Jiang Wenyu squat down, put aside the hem of his official robe without any suspicion, picked up the sleeves, and rummaged inside.Qin Zhou looked at it for a while, and was stabbed twice by Jiang Wenyu with a knife in the eye. He had no choice but to follow to find a needle in a haystack.

Jiang Wenyu turned halfway, and suddenly noticed something was wrong. Qin Zhou squatted in the corner with his back turned and searched for a while, why didn't he figure out anything?

Jiang Wenyu leaned over to see what he was doing, but Qin Zhou happened to turn around holding something up.Before Jiang Wenyu saw what was coming, his face was blurred.

"I found it... oops! Master Jiang?"

Qin Zhou stared blankly at Jiang Wenyu's face, and then quickly backed away.

Jiang Wenyu's eyes were dark before, but only then did he take a closer look. It was a dusty cloth shoe with frayed edges.

His face darkened visibly.

Qin Zhou hurriedly fumbled in his arms to see if there was any handkerchief that the girl lost last time, and said, "I found it. He hid it in his shoe. No wonder he couldn't find it."

Jiang Wenyu's current expression is that he wants to tear Qin Zhou apart, but his face is not as important as his second prince, so he has to get to the point first.

He watched Qin Zhou slowly reach in with two fingers in an attempt to take out the thing on the toe of the shoe without touching the inside. After a long while, he dragged out a cloth bag.

Qin Zhou let out a sigh of relief, and slowly opened it, all of which were jewelry worn by girls.

"Why does this look so familiar?" He raised one and leaned under the window to look.

Jiang Wenyu glanced at it casually, and came to a conclusion: "It's jewelry that only maids in the palace have. This style is made by craftsmen used by the palace."

"They are people in the palace. The princes can be ruled out first. The only ones who can covet the life of the emperor are the harem?" Qin Zhou's expression seemed to be somewhat clear.

"My hometown is in the north..." Jiang Wenyu pondered for a while, and finally remembered, "It's the queen."

The two rushed to the place where the criminal department temporarily detained the prisoner, and Qin Zhou was still asking on the way: "Master Jiang, do you know the details of everyone in the palace?"

Jiang Wenyu was annoyed by Qin Zhou's reading, so he stopped, and said to him, "I'm the secretary supervisor, and I'm in charge of sorting out the papers in the palace." Then he continued walking.

Qin Zhou was stunned by Jiang Wenyu's words for a while, and finally stopped talking.

And this is just an inference, they still have to look for witnesses.

Qin Zhou watched as Jiang Wenyu went to make amends to the Minister of Criminal Justice with a smile on his face for a while, and after he had finished making arrangements, the two were led to the prison for a look.

What they were looking for was the maid who served the emperor in the palace that day.When they walked to the prison door, the disheveled, blood-covered maid shrank back as if stimulated by the light source, then raised her head bluntly, and looked at them with empty eyes.

They also pretended to turn a blind eye, just concerned about the truth of the matter.

"Was the Queen present when His Majesty had the meal before his death?"

"Yes, His Majesty felt a little uncomfortable at that time, and asked the Queen to accompany him for dinner."

"Then...there was no dispute between His Majesty and the Queen at that time?"

"That's not true. The queen sent us away a little bit, the emperor."

Qin Zhou and Jiang Wenyu looked at each other, and Jiang Wenyu asked first, "What is your majesty's reaction?"

The maid still looked out of her mind, and it took her a long time to reply: "No."

It seemed that there was still some way to force her, so Qin Zhou walked aside, picked up the red hot iron, and gestured at her twice.

The maid was suddenly shocked by the temperature close at hand, and there was some light in her eyes. She tried hard to recall the details that she had already said by heart, and struggled not to be tortured inhumanly again.

"By the way, I was still wondering why the emperor didn't make a sound. Even if it's uncomfortable, there should be some movement."

Qin Zhou frowned: "Could it be that His Majesty was killed before?"

It was past dinner time, but the officials were called back to the palace by going door to door.

Qin Zhou and his group of guards had been waiting in front of the late emperor's coffin for a long time.

The officials looked at each other in blank dismay: "Master Jiang, what does this mean?"

Jiang Wenyu snorted coldly: "Catch the murderer who murdered the emperor!"

Everyone was shocked, and Jiang Wenyu threw out the last evidence he found: "This is the pillow that the late emperor slept on before his death. There are deep bite marks on it. The late emperor was killed by the empress."

Qin Zhou wiped the sweat off his forehead from behind, and smiled at Wuwu who was looking at him: "Master, I don't have the guts, look, I'll go all over the palace to find this pillow again." It's back."

However, the queen seemed to agree with Jiang Wenyu's words, and did not show up for a long time, so they had to move to the harem by themselves.

When a group of guards broke into the palace, there was no one in the palace except the queen, and her confidants had already been dispersed.She was the only one left, facing the bronze mirror in the empty hall, sticking her sideburns.

She put on the last touch of makeup on her face, tidied her robe, and after making sure that there was no wrinkle, she raised her head, and everything seemed to be back to the day when she married into the palace decades ago, still solemn, still full of people. attention.There is no longer a hint of remembrance in her eyes: "Let's go."

But when she walked past the second prince, she still couldn't control herself.The hatred in her heart was tumbling, and she could no longer hold back her usual arrogant airs, and left behind a venomous sentence: "You hurt my son, my mother and son. Just watch, Chen Yi, even if you can sit in that position, You'll regret it later, too."

Murdering the emperor should have punished the nine clans, but because General Yan is his elder brother and his son is the prince, he was exempted from this punishment.But Empress Shuyun herself still wanted to beheaded, and her head was hung in front of the city gate as a warning.The crown prince was re-established as the second prince, and then removed from the post of Yan Yunliu Township General.

It is true that there is more than one person mourned by people all over the city.

☆、Chapter 23

The second prince, Chen Yi, no, I'm going to call him the prince now.He led Chen Chen and walked slowly in the palace, and all the attendants and ministers passing by saluted him one after another.His eyebrows and eyes followed his mother's Qingyuan empress, like carefully carved rough jade, and he had a gentle temperament like a bright moon and a cool breeze. It happened to be when he was proud of his spring breeze, and his whole person became more pleasing to the eye.Coupled with the elegant and expensive robes, it looks like a person coming out of a painting.

But the direction he went this trip was a bedroom that was colder than other places in the palace.
