Drunk Bamboo

Chapter 170 No Need to Hide

After returning to Qingshan Town, Hua Qinfeng followed the pre-planned plan and walked into the house with a gloomy face without saying a word.

Zhang Xinghe responded to Sun Yong and his men with a sick look on his face: "Ahem, Captain Sun, we got nothing today, you can go back first."

Sun Yong hesitated a little, looking at Hua Qinfeng's angry back as he left: "Then what about the prince..."

Zhang Xinghe shook his head: "We didn't find any traces of bandits or government silver. The prince was a little angry. It has nothing to do with you. Go back and rest. If Magistrate Hu and Magistrate Wang ask, you just tell them the truth."

"Yes, I resign from my humble position."

Only then did Sun Yong take his men and leave Qingshan Town and head towards Jiangbei County Government Office.

After everyone had gone far away, Zhang Xinghe stood up straight from his bent body and walked into the house with steady steps.

"The people led by Sun Putou have left. How is it? Is there any sign that anyone has been here?"

Hua Qinfeng lowered his head and looked at the tabletop carefully. "You are so brave to come here alone."

Zhang Xinghe: "The floor and table in the room were covered with fluorescent powder. Wherever he walked or touched, his body would be stained with fluorescent powder."

Hua Qinfeng raised his head and continued, "Then we can know where he has been. As long as we have this fluorescent butterfly, at night, it can follow the fluorescent powder to find the places where Wang Qingming has been."

This idea was thought of by Hua Qinfeng, and Chaoyang, who was present at the time, also looked surprised.

"I heard that fluorescent butterflies grow in deep valleys and are extremely rare. It must be difficult for Your Majesty to get this one."

Hua Qinfeng was in a good mood: "I have many friends in the martial arts world, it's no big deal."

He stood up and clapped his hands, then smiled and said to Zhang Xinghe, "The moonlight should be very good tonight. Sir Zhang, would you like to enjoy the moon with us?"

Zhang Xinghe was slightly stunned: "Your Majesty can even tell jokes."

Hua Qinfeng held his chin with his hand and smiled: "I think Yuzhu would prefer a man who is funny and humorous."

"Have you ever thought that caring too much about a person is not a good thing. It is not good for you or your wife."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became chilly.

Hua Qinfeng stared: "Zhang Xinghe, what do you mean?"

"Even if the prince cares about the princess, don't keep calling her princess. If someone with ulterior motives hears it, they might use it to do something and threaten the prince or princess."

Hua Qinfeng, who was originally a little angry, suddenly calmed down after hearing Zhang Xinghe's explanation.

After thinking for a moment, he agreed:

"You've really thought of this. I'm a martial arts expert, and outsiders can't hurt me. If they turn around and hurt Yuzhu, who doesn't know martial arts, she will definitely be in danger. I have to be more careful in the future."

However, Zhang Xinghe was not happy about Hua Qinfeng's approval, and his heart was filled with deeper worries.

Zhuque Street in Zhongdu.

Xie Yuzhu and Yunling came out of Renjitang early today and were on their way back home.

The sun has not yet set, and the sunset light is the most beautiful red color at this moment, which is intoxicating to look at.

But Xie Yuzhu was not in the mood to watch the sunset.

Yun Ling noticed that she was unhappy, so she asked, "Princess, the government silver has been raised and will be sent to Jiangbei County tomorrow. Are you still worried about the prince?"

Xie Yuzhu was thinking not only about Hua Qinfeng, but also about Gu Suiyi. These two people seemed to have no intersection, but they were implicated because of the Loushan silver robbery case.

This thread was pulled by Xie Yuzhu, and she is also the one considering the current problem.

"Gu Suiyi was privately retaliated for raising money, but he is the eldest son of the Marquisate after all, and those royal relatives and nobles were only short of a few thousand taels of silver. Even if they were extremely reluctant to pay the money, it can be said that they were forced to do so, but they can still show their face in front of His Majesty, so it is not a loss. There is really no need to beat Gu Suiyi in the street, and directly hit him in the face."

"Who in Zhongdu has such courage?"

Could it be that he was anxious and angry? Is there really any royal relative who has never suffered a loss and couldn't bear Gu Suiyi's anger?

I thought about it over and over again, but I couldn't figure out who it was.

Changfeng Tower did not find any trace of the men in black that night, as if they had never appeared in Zhongdu before.

Then these people must be hiding somewhere that is capable of protecting them.

Could it be King Wen who has such ability?

Yun Ling thought of Gu Suiyi's face and was still a little scared: "Mr. Gu's face was indeed beaten badly. The blood at the corner of his mouth dried up that day. I don't know how he has recovered now."

Xie Yuzhu shook his head and stopped thinking about it. The most important thing now was to deliver this batch of official silver to Jiangbei County smoothly.

When it comes to Gu Suiyi, she finds it funny.

"He has now become the treasure of the Gu family. Lao Liu said that His Majesty has granted the Marquisate a red-lettered iron certificate and made him hereditary. From now on, no one in Zhongdu City dares to say that he is a playboy. That afternoon, Marquis Gu took the betrothal gifts to the home of Zhongshu Ling Xun Lord to propose marriage."

With good reputation comes a good marriage.

However, judging from what Gu Suiyi did during King Wen's wedding, these good things might not be so good things for him.

Yun Ling was surprised: "It seems that Lord Xun's granddaughter hasn't reached the age of marriage yet?"

Xie Yuzhu chuckled and said, "Let's arrange the marriage first. After all, the Xun family has been a family of nobles for generations. I think Miss Xun is also a mild-tempered person. Lord Gu is also very worried about Gu Suiyi's marriage."

Yun Ling saw her smile, and smiled too. Seeing someone selling candied haws nearby, she hurried over and said, "Princess, you have candied haws. Eating these will make you feel good. I'll go buy some."

Xie Yuzhu nodded and stood on the street waiting for Yunling.

Not far away, a large carriage was slowly approaching.

"Isn't this Princess Feng? How come you're still in the mood to go shopping? You don't seem to be worried at all that Prince Feng is investigating a case in Loushan." Xiao Bingxin lifted the carriage curtain and happened to see Xie Yuzhu. She deliberately said to Hua Qinming and Luo Qi in the carriage, "The princess looks haggard these days. Does she seem to be worried about something?"

Luo Qi raised her head and smiled: "It's just that I didn't sleep well. Thank you for your concern, Sister Xiao."

Xiao Bingxin lowered the curtain and snuggled up to Hua Qinming: "His Majesty still loves the prince, so he lets the prince follow Lord Li in the Ministry of Personnel to assess and select officials. Although it's busy, he doesn't have to suffer in a remote place like Loushan."

Luo Qi glanced at Hua Qinming and said in a gentle tone, "Your Highness knows astronomy and geography, is well-versed in history and modern times, and is well-read. He is a modest gentleman, and Prince Feng is good at martial arts. Your Majesty knows how to use people well, and the court officials are also doing their jobs."

Xiao Bingxin smiled charmingly, and said, "Princess, do you mean to support King Feng?"

Luo Qi pursed her lips and said, "Sister Xiao, why do you have to misinterpret my meaning?"

Hua Qinming, who had been silent, said, "Well, you are not allowed to comment on the important matters of the court. No one can interfere with the decision of our father."

Xiao Bingxin flattered: "Your Majesty, I am doing this for your sake."

Hua Qinming patted her hands and comforted her: "I know you are devoted, but General Xiao values ​​my third brother, and my third brother has been in the army for many years, so he also takes good care of you. Although you have entered the Prince Wen's Mansion, you don't have to cut off everything in the past for me."

Then he glanced at Luo Qi and signaled her not to care.

Luo Qi nodded and said nothing more.

Xiao Bingxin said, "Your Majesty, the Wind Prince alone is not something to be feared, but the Wind Prince's Consort is not easy to deal with now."

Hua Qinming suddenly stopped laughing, his eyes flashed coldly, and his tone remained unchanged: "She is my third sister-in-law."

Luo Qi couldn't help but glance at him, then quickly lowered her head.

How could such a cold and indifferent look appear on King Wen?

Even if it only appears for a moment, it is chilling.

Xiao Bingxin leaned on Hua Qinming's chest, immersed in the gentle embrace, and pouted: "Your Majesty, there is no need to hide it from me. My mother has told me and the princess. I know what Your Majesty wants, and I will definitely help Your Majesty achieve his wish. Anyone who hinders Your Majesty is my enemy."
