Once magnificent, now brilliant

There was no need for Bai Junyu to inquire about the news about Zuo Xiang's mansion. Early the next morning, Steward Pan heard about it when he went out to buy breakfast.

Qi Xiang has been recuperating from his injuries in recent days, and he has a list of foods to eat. Except for the soup Mrs. Bai sends every day and the medicinal meals that Shi Zhou cooks from time to time, which count as meat, most of the time he eats porridge and some easy-to-digest side dishes.New winter vegetables are not easy to come by, so Bai Junyu specially asked someone to use the vegetable cellar dug in the new house, and also asked someone to buy a lot of storable vegetables before the first snowfall. Let Qi Xiang be refreshing in the meat-based winter.

This method of storing vegetables in the vegetable cellar is not uncommon, but few people know how to dig.The most fundamental reason is that the cost of buying vegetables in winter and transporting them back to Jingzhong Road is more expensive than the vegetables. How can ordinary people have such a budget, and the winter with few vegetables has been like this for many years, and they will not be hypocritical about this kind of thing. .

Bai Junyu also spent a lot of money this time, but seeing those vegetables were either pickled or preserved, he felt that they were all worth it.He has no place to spend money on weekdays, and his mother doesn't need him to pay his family's salary, so he collects all his salary and rewards, and saves a lot.Now that Qi Xiang has been identified, even if it is all given to Qi Xianghua, it should be done.

Butler Pan really didn't go out this morning to inquire, but thought of the small wontons at the breakfast shop next to the clothing store that Qi Xiang had mentioned before. Qi Xiang changed his taste, and Qi Xiang could eat more.

Qi Xiang was injured before, but Shi Zhou didn't let him out of the house. Now it's cold, and Bai Junyu doesn't let him out of the house.Butler Pan brought two bowls of wontons into the room, and said with a smile, "My lord, general, eat while it's hot."

Qi Xiang also felt sorry for his bad legs and walked so far, sighed: "I don't have to eat this, you have to pay attention to your body after tossing around like this in the morning."

Butler Pan said with a smile: "Young master, don't worry, I'm in good health. The food box left by General Bai's mansion is also big and insulated, so I want to buy some so that you can eat more."

Qi Xiang smiled, "It's going to be colder in the future, so don't trouble yourself like this."

"Hey, I just suddenly thought of it and went. Next time I will prepare some stuffing myself and wrap it for the young master."

"Okay." He also felt very comfortable eating a bowl of hot food with soup in the morning in winter, "Go and eat it quickly, it will be cold in a while."

"Let's go now. That's it, I'll tell you and the general one more thing." I must tell Qi Xiang as soon as I hear the news.

"Tell me." Qi Xiang blew on the wontons, not in a hurry to eat, and since there were no outsiders in the family, he didn't need to pretend to be silent.

"When I was buying breakfast, I heard people saying that Peng Liang, the eldest son of Prime Minister Zuo, hanged himself in prison last night." This was big news, and there were many people whispering about it along the way.

Neither Qi Xiang nor Bai Junyu was surprised. They expected it when they saw Peng Ji yesterday, but...

"Are you sure it was suicide?" Qi Xiang asked.

Butler Pan said, "That's what they all said. It was said that the prison guards agreed that it was suicide."

"do you have anything else?"

"I haven't heard of it. But a few people chatted and guessed that it was the uncle of the third prince. The third prince must go to express his condolences, and he can take the opportunity to relieve the restraint."

The dead are the most important, and it is not yet known whether there will be any clues to continue the investigation of the fraud, but the third prince can indeed be freed from the confinement this time, and has another chance to plan for the future.

After Pan Butler went out, Qi Xiang put the cooler wontons into his mouth, and said, "The Zuo Xiangfu is busy with the funeral, so he should not care about others. It is impossible for Peng Liang to commit suicide, after all, he is so afraid of dying alone. I I'm curious how the queen did it. In addition, you also asked someone to go to the fourth prince's mansion quietly, and ask him to check whether Peng Liang has provided any useful clues. "

"Okay, I'll get someone to do it later." There were few people on the street in the early morning, and if you wanted to go to the fourth prince's residence quietly, you had to wait until there were so many people that it was difficult to attract attention.

Qi Xiang picked up another wonton, "Are you going to mourn with General Feng Bei?"

"It's fine for father to go. I haven't recovered yet, so I don't have to go."

Officer, no matter what your position is, it is not good to be absent in this kind of matter.And if he didn't go, it was also a signal to the outside world-he didn't heal from his injury, so he wouldn't cause trouble for others.Not only can others not say anything about him, but they will also breathe a sigh of relief for his situation.

"That's good. The third prince is about to lift his feet. No matter what the reason is, the emperor will not favor one person over another. In other words, the second prince will also give an excuse to lift his feet." Qi Xiang said absent-mindedly, "When the time comes, you should go home first. Go live, I guess he will come to me. I have done this superficial work before, and I have to do it properly in the future."

Bai Junyu wasn't afraid of being hot, so he felt hot after eating, "Then what are you going to tell him when you move to a new house?"

It's so close to his house, if the second prince doesn't want to order something, Bai Junyu feels that even if he leaves him there, the second prince won't be able to take that position.

Qi Xiang said with a half-smile, "You said you forced me to move there. I don't know if it was because of classmates, or because it was for surveillance."

Bai Junyu: "..."

Qi Xiang looked at him, "Can't you?"

Bai Junyu: "...OK..."

The corners of Qi Xiang's mouth couldn't stop rising, because he likes it, he is willing to "play around" with the other party, even though he still has hesitation and concerns, but now he can feel Bai Junyu's connivance, a little proud and happy.

Before evening, the Fourth Prince delivered a letter to them.Said that Peng Liang suddenly asked to see the chief judge the night before yesterday and had something to say.But it was late at that time, and it was inconvenient for the presiding officer to return to the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the middle of the night, so only a small official from the Ministry of Criminal Justice who was on duty at night went to question him.Peng Liang also confessed to Hu Mingwu, the general who cheated with him.

Because important generals are involved, small officials dare not be sloppy.The news was reported to the chief judge early the next morning.The presiding judge did not dare to neglect, and refreshed Peng Liang and Chai Huchang.

The head of household Chai still didn't say anything. Apart from confessing Hu Mingwu, Peng Liang didn't produce any other strong evidence.Then he said that he knew a lot, but he had to live comfortably and the food was good before he was willing to say it.

Peng Liang's identity made the Ministry of Criminal Affairs not dare to make things difficult for him, and now he seems to be able to provide a lot of things like a know-it-all, so the Ministry of Criminal Affairs will naturally not move him.After he had finished his confession, the Ministry of Criminal Justice closed the case. No one could find anything wrong with the Ministry of Criminal Justice. They did not extract confessions by torture, nor did they give false testimony. Prime Minister Zuo could not do anything to them.

It was expected to be good, and he hanged himself that night.

Speaking of suicide, the maids around Concubine Shu found some problems.

The night shift of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is before dinner, and the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is no more than the prison of the government office. After all, there are fewer people watching the prison, and the jailers are also very lax.Yesterday, the maid took Concubine Shu's hairpin out of the palace to find a master Fuxiu. When she came back late, she inadvertently saw the maid next to the queen meeting a jailer at the entrance of the alley not far from the prison.She was terrified at the time and slipped away while the two were not paying attention to her.

This morning, she was ordered by Concubine Shu to deliver soup to the emperor. Because of Peng Liang's hanging last night, the emperor summoned the jailers who were on duty last night for questioning, and that jailer was among them.The palace maid was also smart, she quietly inquired about the approximate time when Peng Liang hanged himself, and then recalled the time when they had a tryst yesterday, it was basically certain that the jailer was not in the prison at all when Peng Liang hanged himself.

"There are not many jailers who are on shift every night. They can transfer one or others. The queen's trick is quite clever. If the jailers were not in the prison at the time, and Peng Liang died like this, of course they would not dare to admit it. I have neglected my duties, so I can only insist that he committed suicide." Qi Xiang said while drinking flower tea.A not-so-smart woman is hard-hearted, but she doesn't necessarily lose to a smart woman.

"The empress is not slow to act, but fortunately Peng Liang also confessed to Hu Mingwu. If no one confesses, he will die in vain." Since there is a follow-up, it still needs to be investigated by the Ministry of Punishment.As for whether they want to investigate or wait, it depends on Qi Xiang's intention.

Qi Xiang put aside the small petals floating on the tea, "It's a pity that Peng Liang confessed too few people. I don't know if this General Hu can get away with it. But having said that, Peng Liang's approach is not stupid, so let's get rid of one person first." , it can’t be too important a person, so that his father and sister know that he also has cards in his hand.

Dangerous.It's a pity that he thought well, but he didn't expect Prime Minister Zuo who was protecting his children and daughters to do nothing, but his sister had already planned to kill him. "

"We still have no evidence that the queen sent someone to kill Peng Liang," Bai Junyu said.So even if it was planned by them, they don't have solid evidence.

"No hurry." After taking a few sips of tea, Qi Xiang put the cup aside, "As long as the people involved in this matter are still alive, there will be evidence."

The plan is progressing smoothly, Qi Xiang can also sleep well tonight, but now he is pretending to sleep, and he will really fall asleep when Bai Junyu is asleep - because he doesn't want to miss Bai Junyu's gentle kiss to him, and he is also afraid that he will wake up from sleep , showing flaws.

Today was the same as before, Bai Junyu didn't lie down until he "fallen asleep".

Tonight, Bai Junyu was honest and didn't do anything.Qi Xiang didn't lean towards him either, keeping a little distance between the two of them, as if they were in peace.

After a while, Qi Xiang felt that Bai Junyu moved, and this time he didn't just approach him, but supported him with his whole body.

Qi Xiang adjusted her breathing steadily, as if she was asleep and didn't notice anything.

After a while, Bai Junyu's breath fell on his face, and his lips became hot.

Qi Xiang's breathing stagnates almost uncontrollably, the feeling of kissing the lips is different from that of the cheeks and forehead, and the numbness is also magnified several times, making it difficult to calm down.

Bai Junyu also immediately noticed that Qi Xiang's breathing was disordered, she was surprised and somewhat at a loss and asked softly, "You're awake, aren't you?"
