Chu Chen Kee

As soon as the sun came out in the early morning, the vigorous morning glow had already dyed a small half of the sky red.

Bai Yi always gets up early, but when he got up, he found that someone got up earlier than him.

Su Qinyin stood helplessly at the door of the kitchen, her fair and delicate face was covered with black soot, and her thin white hands were scratched by the rough firewood.

Several servants were busy pouring pots of water into it, and finally put out the fire in the kitchen.

Seeing Bai Yi outside, Su Qinyin's face immediately flushed red.

She twisted the handkerchief in her hand on the spot, and after a while, she whispered: "Sorry, I just wanted to cook for you..."

Bai Yi breathed out lightly, then smiled gently, and said, "It's okay, you are a guest of my house, you don't need to do such chores, just don't do such things in the future."

Su Qinyin was still a little nervous, she desperately pulled Bai Yi's sleeve and said, "I'm really sorry, otherwise...or I'd better move out."

Bai Yi frowned slightly, then looked into her eyes seriously and said, "I said I would help you, so I won't break my promise."

Su Qinyin stood there blankly, and suddenly burst into tears after a while, then lowered her head and said in shame: "I'm sorry, Xiaobai. I, I didn't come to you to fulfill the marriage contract."

Hearing this, Bai Yi knew that Su Qinyin might tell him something, so he dismissed the servants, took Su Qinyin to the study, poured her another cup of tea, and comforted her softly for a while.

Holding the tea, Su Qinyin lowered her eyes and said, "I actually have someone I like. He is the quartermaster who supervises the production of weapons in the barracks. But my father and the others have always disagreed... Something happened at home, I didn't If there is a way, go to him.”

"He is a good man, and he won't dislike me because of this, but treats me well as always. But the day before yesterday, Princess Yuzhen took someone to kidnap him, and forced me to find a way to enter your house and cooperate with her. Destroy your family." Su Qinyin said, the tears in her eyes couldn't hold back, dripping drop by drop into the teacup in her hand.

Bai Yi didn't interrupt, but quietly listened to Su Qinyin's narration.

Su Qinyin paused, forced a smile and said: "I know that our family has been sorry to your family, and I am even more sorry to you. It's my own fault that I have fallen into today's situation, right? It's just that you can ignore it. The past has helped me, I really can't bear to continue to deceive you..."

"Where did they catch the person you like?" Bai Yi asked in a deep voice.

Su Qinyin raised her head abruptly, and looked at Bai Yi inexplicably.

Bai Yi smiled slightly and said, "Maybe I can help you rescue him."

Su Qinyin seemed to be happy for a moment, but soon became sad: "You don't know, those people are not something ordinary people can deal with..."

Bai Yi looked at her: "It's okay, I can deal with them naturally."

Su Qinyin bit her lip, and still told Bai Yi: "It's in the imperial prison."

Imperial Prison is the most heavily guarded prison in the Tang Dynasty, and the prisoners inside must be felons who were detained by the Emperor himself.

Bai Yi didn't know, how could a mere quartermaster be sent to prison?

But although he doesn't know, there is someone who can definitely find out.

Bai Yi thought for a while and said, "You can stay at my house with peace of mind. I'll check this case for you first, and then make a decision."

If the quartermaster was wronged, he would be able to solve a problem for himself and give Su Qinyin a good home by saving him. Of course, everyone would be happy.If he deserved what he deserved, Bai Yi could only find another way to deal with Su Qinyin.

And the only person who has the authority to enter the imperial prison to investigate the case is the prince Li Chenhuan who is under one person.

Just thinking of Li Chenhuan's ambiguous words a few days ago, Bai Yi decided to investigate by himself...

Suddenly, Hu Ziying broke into the study.

Behind him was the inseparable Yue Ze.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yi had rarely seen Hu Ziying look so nervous.

Hu Ziying frowned tightly: "Master, they are gone."

gone?

Bai Yi immediately stood up.

Afterwards, he was stunned for a moment and then sat back down.

If Master and the others wanted to leave, they would definitely be unable to stop them.

But why did it go so suddenly?

Bai Yi looked up at Hu Ziying: "Master, did they leave any letters?"

Hu Ziying shook her head and said sadly, "No."

Bai Yi was also silent for a while.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Su Qinyin heard that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly said: "Since you still have something to say, I'll go first."

Bai Yi didn't stop her either, he just frowned slightly as he watched her leaving back.

"You have also heard what he said just now, how credible do you think?" Bai Yi knew that according to the ears of Hu Ziying and the two of them, even if they were standing at the gate of Baifu, the words here could not be hidden from them.

Hu Ziying thought about it seriously, and said, "It's half true and half false."

Although he was young, he was the best at observing words and expressions. Seeing that Su Qinyin's expression was a little off, he didn't trust her words very much.

Bai Yi nodded, with serious eyes: "I just don't know whether he came for me or Li Yuchen."

Now that Li Yuchen has been identified by Shuiyue as the primordial body of chaos, Bai Yi naturally understands how tempting this is to other monks!Even if the chance of success in the future sacrifice is only half, it is enough for those people to be blinded by the huge temptation and attack them one after another.

Yue Ze nodded and said: "Although I don't know, she provided us with a direction."

Bai Yi nodded: "Yes, at least we know that it was Princess Yuzhen who did it behind my back, although it's not clear why she sent Su Qinyin to my side."

"The gang of monks who caused trouble during the senior brother's tribulation last time were probably responsible for it! They must have taken Princess Yuzhen and didn't go far, and they were hiding somewhere in the dark!" Hu Ziying affirmed.

Bai Yi took a deep breath, he realized that he was sinking deeper and deeper into this quagmire.

"My lord, His Royal Highness has brought someone here." A servant knocked on the door and said.

Bai Yi's brows immediately frowned even tighter.

He got up and went out, and saw Li Chenhuan in the hall, still sitting in the seat he usually sat in.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here every day, and those who didn't know it thought how deep their friendship was.

But no matter what Bai Yi thinks, he probably belongs to the prince's party in the eyes of others.

Thinking of this, Bai Yi felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.

Just seeing Li Chen still sitting there, he had to show 12 points of patience: "Your Highness is here today, what's the matter?"

Even though Li Chenhuan noticed Bai Yi's vague impatience, he still sat there as if nothing had happened, drinking the tea in his hand leisurely.

"Ruyi has already returned to the Tianyao Gate, and no one has passed on your news to me. I have you in mind in my heart, so I will naturally come to visit." Putting down the teacup in his hand, Li Chenhuan said so.

Bai Yi looked back at him expressionlessly, with a hint of displeasure on his handsome face.

Li Chenhuan teased a few words on his lips, and he was already very happy seeing Bai Yi's reaction. He didn't want to really make Bai Yi angry, so he changed the subject and smiled: "I know you are worrying about that Regarding Su Qinyin's matter, I sent people to the imperial prison yesterday night to retrieve the files of the quartermaster."

Shu Yue behind him immediately shook the file in her hand.

Bai Yi didn't believe that Li Chenhuan would have such good intentions, so he said indifferently: "I'm afraid there are other matters, Your Highness?"

After several months of contact, Bai Yi has a deep understanding of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

He knew that even if he really liked him as much as Li Chenhuan said, he would never take the risk of mobilizing the dossier of the imperial prison for this matter.In his eyes, the most important thing is the position of the master of the Tang Dynasty.

Unless this matter can bring him other benefits.

Li Chenhuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Bai Yi with admiration: "Sure enough, you know about me."

Bai Yi stared closely at his eagle eyes: "What is your Highness's plan, let's talk about it together."

Li Chenhuan slowly played with a jade pendant in his hand, pondered for a long time before smiling and said: "Princess Yuzhen has now regained the favor of the emperor, I am just afraid that he will make a comeback and cause me trouble again. If I take this matter Getting rid of her would be clean and tidy."

Bai Yi took a look at him, and twitched the corners of his lips unobtrusively. He didn't believe Li Chenhuan's excuses at all.

Even if Princess Yuzhen found a backer, would Li Chenhuan really shy away from that person?He has always acted arrogantly, if he really insisted on dealing with a certain person, it would be useless for that person to call down the golden fairy from the sky.The only possibility is that Li Chenhuan has other plans.But Bai Yi didn't intend to expose his lie.

He took the dossier, opened it, read it carefully from beginning to end, and asked softly, "Is this dossier real?"

Li Chenhuan sneered: "Do you think the old man is really so leisurely to take care of the life and death of a little-known official? The seal and procedures of this file seem to be flawless, but they are definitely forged."

"It says that the quartermaster sold weapons to foreigners privately. This is a capital offense in Tang Dynasty." Bai Yi put away the file, turned his head and placed it gently on the table.

Li Chenhuan nodded slowly and said: "To frame such a big crime, if it is just to trap Su Qinyin, it would be too generous. I believe that their real purpose is to bring down this palace."

Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, but agreed with his speculation.

Princess Yuzhen is coming so aggressively this time, it is naturally impossible to make a big move for a few small shrimps, once she makes a move, she will definitely point it at the person she hates the most.

Ordinary people would think that there is nothing she hates more than Concubine Bai, but when you think about it carefully, there is actually another person, that is Prince Li Chenhuan.

When dealing with the Wang family and the empress, although Li Chenhuan did not stand in the open, but in the future, every step would not be without his secret push.

Although Princess Yuzhen didn't understand these principles very well, the people behind her couldn't understand them.

Moreover, standing behind her was the only son of the head of the Danding Sect, which made it even more difficult.

"Then where does His Royal Highness plan to deal with this matter?" Bai Yi asked.

Li Chenhuan showed a sinister smile, and said coldly: "Since this is the case, I will naturally handle this matter well. In a few days, it will be the emperor's birthday, and there will be a good show at that time. But I still have Your cooperation is needed."

Bai Yi looked at him puzzled.

Li Chenhuan said indifferently: "At that time, the small countries of Fanbang will also come to worship, and it will be very easy to fish in troubled waters."

Bai Yi thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.
