Self-help guide for non-professional young masters

"This old guy was inserted into Dongchang as Si Ye's eyeliner. He has been working for the crowing rooster for several years, but in the end he became Master Lin's knife to kill people. Good guy, each one is better than the other. But I'm curious, Mr. Lin has been in the court all these years, his colleagues don't dare to trust him, there are always trustworthy people around him, it's easy to get rid of Song Bolun, why do you have to borrow Ding Sheng's hand?"

Jiang Yanqing dripped the medicated oil into the palm of his hand, warmed it up and applied it on Jun Ziyou's slightly purple legs, and massaged his knees that were too cold to bend.

The man was leaning against the bed with a bored look on his face. Hearing the drumming outside, he turned the hourglass standing by the bed upside down, turned his head, and closed his eyes.

"You don't need a knife to kill...or you don't use your own knife. To put it bluntly, you don't want to implicate your own people. To put it bluntly, you don't want any mistakes in this matter. This is enough to prove that in his heart, no one is trustworthy. One's own people rely on kindness, but pulling other swords rely on hatred. You remember, in this world, hatred is always deeper than kindness, and it is the most difficult thing to be betrayed."

Speaking of this, he held the hourglass and murmured again: "All people may betray you, only your enemy will not. He is the most loyal person to you."

After speaking, he fell asleep, and the things in his hands slipped and almost fell to the ground and smashed.

Jiang Yanqing caught the hourglass and placed it on the bedside again. Looking at the slow flow of quicksand, she really wanted to ask him if he had any clues.

But looking at the man's haggard and thin face, he couldn't bear to ask.

"Thank you for your hard work. My old man's last wish has your help, thank you..."

After being out in the cold for a day, Junziyou's body was obviously much weaker, and the burns on his back that hadn't healed quickly festered again. Jiang Yanqing took care of him in front of and behind the bed, and didn't dare to neglect him for a moment, for fear that he would be overwhelmed, so he blinked , people are gone.

Jun Ziyou knew that he hadn't reached the time to be damned, so he couldn't just take advantage of those dogs who coveted his life so cheaply, so he got up desperately, insisting on entering the palace again for questioning.

Jiang Yanqing was not willing to make him work hard, and advised him to stay calm, but leave the matter to Jiang Linyuan. Just after saying this, a person walked in outside the door. The dazzling python robe, only covered with a black cloak, was Xiao Junze.

The prince was just a young boy, full of anger, and took off his cloak when he entered the door, his palms were still sweating. Seeing that the gentleman had covered three or four layers of quilts, he was almost stuck on the charcoal brazier and was still shivering, so he took off his cloak. The cloak that had not been put down was also covered on him.

He bowed his head and called "Teacher". Although it was awkward, he was less reluctant than last time, "You want to investigate the case, I can help you, don't try so hard, it looks really distressing."

"Yo, the brat still knows how to love others?" Jun Ziyou was as surprised as if he saw a sow climbing a tree.

"I don't hurt, how dare I, if King Jin knew that you were suffering outside when he was in prison, he would want to peel my skin."

Jun Ziyou's eyes dimmed, and he really showed his dislike and resistance. At first glance, it seemed that he really didn't want to get news from that person, but in fact, it belonged to his heart.

"Stop talking nonsense, you don't look like you are here to study, what's wrong with you?"

"Teacher, what you said is too harsh. You bother to investigate this case because of me. I can't just let go and wait. You can tell me to do whatever you need, as long as you can..."

"Come on, I'm not being polite to you, can you find me some young and good-looking boys to warm my bed? It's a bit cold."

This attitude is clearly saying: adults do things, children don't interrupt.

Xiao Junze was dissatisfied, and argued: "I really can. The old eunuch must have never told you. At that time, it was Zheng Yisheng who passed the message back and forth between him and Si Ye. Later, he impulsively gave Song Bolun a gift from the emperor. The ginseng soup was poisoned, and Zheng Yisheng was afraid that someone would seek revenge on him after finding out the truth, so he sent him to Xinzheku. After a long time, even Zheng himself forgot that there was such a person, so he was... "

"Wait, what did you say?"

Xiao Junze recalled what he said just now, "Zheng Yisheng is afraid that someone will seek revenge on him..."

"No, last sentence."

"He poisoned the ginseng soup that the emperor gave Song Bolun."

Jun Ziyou looked at this young man who was extremely slow to react, sat up, and moved closer to Xiao Junze, his straight eyes made the other person feel terrified.

He asked: "Does your father have the habit of giving people soup?"

"Father...Father doesn't like soup, especially ginseng soup. He said it has an earthy smell, and he slurs it very badly. It makes people sick to watch others drink it. If I knew that Father was going to eat in the palace, I would The concubine mother will definitely ask people to withdraw this soup in advance and replace it with the sweet bird's nest soup. If the father hadn't sincerely troubled others, he probably wouldn't..."

"That would be weird, let your subordinates check to see if there was any inaccurate account of the ginseng in the Tai Hospital before and after the incident, I don't believe it, can this old carrot come out of thin air? ?”

Xiao Junze immediately sent people to investigate, and the people under him worked hard for the East Palace, and quickly sent back the news, "Your Highness, three years before Lord Song passed away, there was indeed a lack of tribute ginseng in the palace, but the things didn't come from the Taiyuan Palace. It was lost in the hospital, but in the imperial concubine's palace."

"Concubine Yan?" Jun Ziyou didn't remember much about the nobles in the palace anymore, it was only when others mentioned this empress who was full of knowledge and self-cultivation, her emotions and anger were invisible, but her aura could overwhelm others.

When Emperor Yuan came to the throne, she should be one of the few old people who followed Mu Wangfu to the palace, so it is not difficult to understand why things were thrown from her palace.It's just that this matter got involved in the harem again, which inevitably caused headaches.

He can feel that there is an invisible hand pulling him in the dark, whether it is Song Bolun who has died for a long time, or Ding Sheng who has been kept in the dark, they are just pawns leading him to the truth.

Now that he was getting closer to the truth, he became more and more timid, and he hesitated when he was about to take a crucial step.

"Although Yan Niangniang is a bit cold-tempered, she is still very measured in her actions. I will ask her about what happened back then, and she probably won't..."

"No need, you little bastard, the bed in the East Palace is not warm yet, so don't mess around with me. Besides Concubine Yan, who are the concubines who have been with the emperor since they were in the palace, who are senior concubines in the palace?

Xiao Junze thought for a while, "Mistress Yan has been with the emperor for the longest time, followed by Concubine Jin and my concubine mother. Concubine Jin is the adoptive mother of the emperor's brother, and she has no intention of being competitive, so the emperor also respects the imperial concubine. Practicing the golden mean, there is no desire to be the first in everything, and the emperor often reprimands her for it, but after listening to it for a long time, everyone will get used to it."

"Adoptive mother? The eldest prince's biological mother is..."

When mentioning the life experience of the emperor's brother, Xiao Junze felt helpless, sighed and shook his head, "It's Empress Xiaoyi. I heard that Empress Xiaoyi's health has not been very good. She lost her vitality when she gave birth to the emperor's brother, and passed away not long after. Father felt sorry for Empress Xiaoyi, and felt sorry for the eldest son who lost his mother at birth, so he ordered Concubine Jin to raise the emperor's elder brother. There were rumors in the palace that she wanted to harm her because she couldn't have a child..."

"But that's all groundless. After all, Concubine Jin doesn't like to scramble, and it's unlikely that she will harm others for this. Everyone knows it, so it didn't take long for the rumors to be self-defeating."

"It's impossible to say this out of thin air. Is there any doubt about the cause of Empress Xiaoyi's death?"

Xiao Junze shook his head very resolutely, he firmly believed in what happened back then, he never thought that he was still a child and had not yet been reincarnated at that time, all his understanding was hearsay, not what he saw with his own eyes.

Jiang Yanqing rubbed her chin, thinking hard about the details related to this matter, and found a small fragment from the corner of her vague memory.

"Before the eldest prince was born, there seemed to be a saying that the heir conceived by Princess Mu was the lone star of the gods, who would kill their parents when they were born, with double pupils, and would become the greatest threat to the throne."

"Where did this ridiculous word come from?"

"In the palace, it's not for the emperor, but for the former emperor. When it comes to the 'heavenly evil lone star', no one can talk nonsense except Qin Tianjian, right?"

The moment Jun Ziyou met his eyes, he could feel the complicated mood of the other party.

There are rumors that Lin Xici was also instructed by Qin Tianjian when he was alive, knowing that he would have two heirs, so he planned everything after his death in advance. Now it seems that this is not a rumor, at least it has a basis.

"Qin Tianjian, Mo Wencheng... Yanqing, go and find out where that old gentleman is."

The change of his address made Jiang Yanqing stunned, which proved that in his heart, he was no longer just a doctor who treated his diseases, what a joyful thing this is!

Seeing this guy's face was full of joy, and he still jumped out, Xiao Junze touched his head, thinking in his heart: "This guy, what is there to be happy about..."

"You continue to talk about Empress Xiaoyi, you can talk about anything that comes to mind, no matter how small the details are."

"Empress Xiaoyi was very young when she passed away. At that time, she was still in the palace. She only had the title of Princess Mu. She and her father had always treated her with respect as a guest. His father pitied her for being so young...so after she ascended the throne, she was crowned queen. .”

"Some people think that Empress Xiaoyi's status in the heart of the father is not low, so they want to take this opportunity to make a big fuss, so many rumors spread, saying that Empress Xiaoyi was... killed by someone, and the murderer was the last one. Concubine Jin who made a profit, but I don't believe it, because it was an accident that the father asked her to raise the emperor's brother, and she couldn't..."

"Little boy, remember, there are no such coincidences and accidents in this world, all accidents are caused by man. I don't know why you believe this, but you have lived in the deep palace for so many years, but you haven't learned Is there a reason why people’s hearts cannot be trusted?”

"I……"

"Go back. I've spent a day here, and I haven't learned anything. Hurry up and get a book and go back and put on a show. Don't let anyone gossip about me. Also, say hello to Concubine Yu for me, and get out."

Xiao Junze was pushed and shoved by him, so he had no choice but to go outside. When he passed by the bookshelf by the door, he picked up a book and went back in a jerk.

The author has something to say: Popular science, if you have not been established as a queen during your lifetime, strictly speaking, you are not considered a queen if you are posthumously named after death, but the burial regulations can follow the posthumous rites, and you can also be eligible to be buried with the emperor. So in fact, Emperor Yuan has no queen, and the same is true for the first emperor.

Suddenly I feel that the female characters in this story are so miserable...

Thank you for reading the text, the little cute duck~
