Go back to ancient times to explore the case

"Where are you going?" Yan Qingchuan was dragged by Xie Yu'an and rushed all the way, and he rushed out of the city before the city gate closed after a while.

Xie Yu'an still didn't say anything, just smiled mysteriously, and then led Yan Qingchuan to an ordinary house, knocked on the door regularly, and the room opened by itself, and she led Yan Qingchuan who was a little dazed When they came to the middle of the house, the stone slab under the two of them slowly descended.

As she went deeper and deeper, the whole picture of Wen Ruo Pavilion was displayed in front of Yan Qingchuan one by one. Looking at the large-scale scene in front of her, which was going on in an orderly manner, she was a little surprised and said: "This is... "

Xie Yu'an didn't answer, and led her to continue down to the core of Wenruo Pavilion, which is the place where information is collected and sorted out. Above it is an exquisite organ for transporting information, and below it is a busy place for information collection. Categorized personnel.

Xie Yu'an took out a fox mask and put it on her face, but she didn't put on Yan Qingchuan's mask. She took Yan Qingchuan's leisurely walk and visited the inner workings of the entire Wenruo Pavilion, "This is what I built in private. Although the intelligence organization has not been established for a long time, we have already held all the secrets of the affairs of the world in Beijing."

The astonishment on Yan Qingchuan's face has not yet faded. Looking at the huge and well-organized organization in front of him, he still can't believe that it was established by Xie Yu'an, who usually looks loose and frivolous.

The two walked among them, and every time they reached a place, someone would bow slightly to Xie Yu'an and salute, and when they saw Yan Qingchuan who was not wearing a mask, they were stunned for a moment and then saluted immediately.

Yan Qingchuan was stunned and said, "What's the name... of this place?"

This question made the smile on Xie Yu'an's face froze. She was suddenly a little embarrassed to say that it was named after you. After all, the person involved never knew it. When she established Wen Ruo Pavilion, the relationship between the two of them was not yet clear. .

She said sloppily: "No name, this is a highly confidential organization, it would be a mistake to name it."

Yan Qingchuan stood still suddenly, and gave her a cool look: "Really?"

"......yes."

Yan Qingchuan turned and walked towards the main case on the high platform, and then took out from his arms the jade plaque engraved with Wen Ruo's name that Xie Yu'an gave her back then, and the jade plaque was brightened by the light.

The people who were still busy just now immediately put down their affairs, lifted their robes and knelt down on one knee, cupped their hands and shouted in unison: "Subordinates join the pavilion master."

Xie Yu'an smiled stiffly, "This...this..."

Yan Qingchuan said expressionlessly: "You really gave me a big gift, thank you Pavilion Master." After saying that, he lifted his legs and walked down the stage.

Xie Yu'an caught up with her and explained: "I didn't hide it from you on purpose, I just wanted to find a chance to tell you when the time is right, and now we have to rely on the power of Wen Ruoge if we want to play against the black hands who are trying to subvert the world." .”

Yan Qingchuan was not annoyed that Xie Yu'an had concealed these things from her, but that he was a little annoyed that the other party took the risk alone to do these head-losing things, but never thought of sharing the risk with her. She opened her mouth to say something, when the front walked out A young woman and teenager.

She recognized these two at a glance, they were Zhou Miao and Zhou Zhou, Xie Yu'an's old friends whom she ran into on Lantern Festival Street not long ago.

Zhou Zhou saw Yan Qingchuan appearing here, and immediately called out cleverly, "Hello, Mrs. Pavilion Master!"

The air suddenly froze, Yan Qingchuan raised his brows slightly, his expression couldn't tell if it was anger or anything else, he only half-closed his eyes and asked, "What did you call me?"

Zhou Zhou thought that he was right, and was about to call out again, but was dragged away by Xie Yu'an covering his mouth.

"This child's brain is a bit dull, dull, hahaha." Xie Yu'an laughed dryly twice, and dragged Zhou Zhou all the way to the distance.

When he returned to the stone room, Zhou Miao was introducing the details of Wen Ruo Pavilion to Yan Qingchuan. Xie Yu'an took off his mask and walked carefully to Yan Qingchuan's side. Qingtian Division, a mere arresting officer, is actually the chief of the cabinet who secretly manipulates this huge intelligence organization, which is really impressive."

Xie Yu'an sneered: "Life forces me to do a side job, a side job."

Zhou Miao saw that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two of them, so he quickly talked about the business to reconcile the atmosphere, "Xiao'an, you asked me to investigate the matter of the Jingdu Wei Wei, the prefect of Hecheng, and the leader of the Imperial Guard. We have sorted out a large number of these people. I found out that they all had close contacts with a minister in the DPRK.”

Yan Qingchuan and Xie Yu'an raised their ears, and asked at the same time, "Who?"

"Captain He Xiao."

Xie Yu'an frowned, she knew a little about Taiwei He Xiao.The Taiwei is the highest military officer in Daqi, and the prime minister is the highest administrative officer. The two should have been equal in the court, but He Xiao, no matter whether he was in the court or in front of Emperor Yuan Qian, he was the most oppressive. The prime minister, Sheng Huaimin, had one head, just because he removed the official position of Taiwei, and was one of the few princes with different surnames, the Marquis of Jing'an.

The reason for this conferment of marquis has to be mentioned from the generation of the late emperor. This person was originally a courtier of the late emperor. He was a military general of the third rank.Emperor Qian of the Yuan Dynasty ascended the throne, and the frontiers started a war. The barbarians were brave and slaughtered twelve generals in the frontier city, which directly caused Da Qi to have no generals. The Taiwei He Xiao was ordered to command a horse and rushed to the frontier with 15 soldiers. Battle to fame.Because of this achievement, he was able to be named a marquis a few years ago and became the mainstay of the Daqi Dynasty.

If with He Xiao's status and prestige, he wanted to rebel, and all the officials would call on him, then it was indeed possible.

But other than that, Xie Yu'an also remembered one thing, the Marquis of Jing'an, the Marquis of Jing'an... Isn't the Prince Jing'an Monkey the number one rival in love who passionately pursued Yan Qingchuan back then?Thinking of this, she couldn't help tightening her jaw: "Check it out, check it out right away, let me find out the inside and outside of this Jing'an Hou."

"The next step is to focus on reconnaissance of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion. However, He Xiao is currently patrolling military deployments across the country, and it will take some time before he returns to the capital. Let's start with his son. I heard that he will be returning from the border defense soon. .” Zhou Miao said, looking through the information carefully.

Xie Yu'an's eyelids twitched, Prince Jing'an Hou is coming back?She twitched the corner of her mouth expressionlessly: "Come back when you come back, who is afraid that he will fail."

"Xiao'an, do you have any grievances with this Jing'anhou family? You have been a little excited since you mentioned them just now."

Xie Yu'an glanced at Yan Qingchuan who had a calm expression, and said perfunctorily in his heart: "It's nothing, let's do this first, Mr. Yan and I will go back first, and if there is any news, please call Yi Zhenglai to report directly."

After all, Xie Yu'an took Yan Qingchuan out of Wenruo Pavilion, and the two of them walked back to the house, neither of them said a word, Xie Yu'an was more or less anxious about the return of Prince Jing'an.

Although she was sure that Yan Qingchuan didn't like that son, she remembered that they had grown up together and had some childhood friendship, so they could barely be regarded as childhood sweethearts.

After the two walked around a corner, they suddenly spoke together.

"you..."

"you..."

Both of them had a meal, Xie Yu'an continued: "You go ahead, Master Yan."

Yan Qingchuan gave her a deep look, then walked and said, "Apart from that, is there anything else you are hiding from me?"

Xie Yu'an followed her two steps behind. Thinking about it, now she is the only one who has not told Yan Qingchuan about her true identity, but the system's warning words are still in her ears. Even Yan Qingchuan would no longer exist, she didn't dare to gamble, so she could only reply stiffly: "No more."

Yan Qingchuan paused, but didn't ask any more questions, and then went back to the mansion to rest.

Early the next morning, they entered the palace and began to investigate the case of the crown prince's suicide. They checked the confined room again and found nothing unusual. However, the crown prince is so precious that it is impossible to allow them to do autopsies at will. They only got it from the Imperial Medical Office. Some rough autopsy information is useless.

The two of them were walking in the palace, and from time to time, they met the maids who passed by, because they were dressed as outsiders and had good manners, they all looked at them, Xie Yu'an held his head up, with a smile on his face, and walked away That is called a high-spirited.

Yan Qingchuan saw it in his eyes, and said indifferently: "Is Pavilion Master Xie entering the palace to show off his charm or to investigate the case?"

Xie Yu'an smiled and said: "Don't worry, Master Yan, we just walked around this circle to get familiar with the route around the claustrophobic room." After finishing speaking, a group of court ladies approached from the opposite side, Xie Yu'an immediately jumped in front of them, smiling like a spring breeze , "Hello, sisters, let me bother you for a moment, how about asking you something?"

The two leading maids are a bit older, they should be the seniority of aunts in the palace, and now they are called sisters by girls who are much younger than themselves, and they can't help but feel happy. Looking at the two people's attire, they can also guess that it is Qing Tiansi who has entered the palace to investigate the case The people here are very polite and friendly.

"This little adult has a sweet mouth, just ask if you have anything to ask."

Xie Yu'an was a good sister's sweet call a few more times, and then asked: "What do you sisters know about this claustrophobic room?"

Several court ladies looked at each other in dismay, their words were vague and seemed to be difficult to say.Xie Yu'an took out a few exquisite silver hairpins from his sleeves, and passed them over under the cover of his wide sleeves, "The sisters are beautiful and colorful, but they are dressed too plainly, so they are just right for this hairpin. This hairpin is not a precious item, so I will give it to you To all the sisters."

The maid was still a little embarrassed, "My lord, there are...there are rules in the palace, but you are not allowed to give or receive privately."

Xie Yu'an smiled and stuffed the hairpins into the hands of several court ladies, "The rules in the palace mean that bribes are not allowed. I just give my sisters a small gift. Be careful, it's really not an act of bribery."

Having said this, the scruples in the hearts of the few court ladies dissipated, and they thought they were just asking for news, nothing serious.

"This is a claustrophobic room. Someone died not long before His Royal Highness was imprisoned!" One of the maids said cautiously, with a hint of timidity on his face.

Xie Yu'an asked Yan Qingchuan to listen closer.

The maid continued: "The one who died was a Jieyu who entered the palace not long ago. I heard that she had an affair with the guards in the palace and was caught in bed by His Majesty. The guards executed him immediately, and this Jieyu was sent into a confined room." She starved to death, and later a guard said that she saw ghosts floating by in that confined room, and it was rumored in private that Jieyu was framed by someone, so her soul lingers." The palace maid swallowed, and glanced left and right to make sure that there was nothing wrong with her. Others passed by before continuing: "The palace does not allow discussion of the death of the crown prince, but everyone said that it was the female ghost who caused the death of His Highness the crown prince."

It's ghosts harming people again, Xie Yu'an sneered in his heart, in this feudal world, using people's superstitious thinking of respecting gods and fearing ghosts is really a good way to cover up crimes.

"Why is it rumored that Jieyu was wronged in private?"

"I heard that Jieyu kept yelling that she was wronged after the incident happened, but His Majesty saw it with his own eyes, kicked Jieyu unconscious, and then sent her to the confinement room. Anyone who got anywhere near that was starved to death within a few days."

Xie Yu'an nodded, rubbing his chin, as if thinking.

After the maid finished explaining these secrets in the palace, she exhorted: "My lord, just listen to these things, but don't tell outsiders about them, and don't say that you heard them from us."

Xie Yu'an came back to his senses and smiled: "Of course, I'm bothering you sisters, thank you."

After the maids left, Xie Yu'an thought about Jieyu starving to death in the confined room for a while, and then asked Yan Qingchuan, who had been silent all the time: "Master Yan, what do you think about the female ghost taking her life?"

"Ask me why, go ask your good sisters." After Yan Qingchuan said, leaving Xie Yu'an a cold back, he raised his legs and walked away.

Xie Yu'an froze on the spot, only then did she realize that Mr. Yan was having a good time just now, she pursed her lips and smiled, and then followed.
