The end is approaching
Chapter 24 24 Day of Giving Up Efforts:
Knowing that the Seventh Prince is the regent, how did Qi Yifei react?
Of course, what should I do, what should I do.
There must be emotions such as "shock", but the main direction of Qi Yifei's shock is - growing up so big, it is the first time for him to get close to the truth.Counterattack the hero.
How did this happen?
Wen Zui's hand of cards is really not as bad as someone who has never been in contact with can imagine.Oh, no, no, before Wen Zuo didn't even have the chance to get cards at the table.
First of all, being diligent in Jing's study means that you don't have the responsibility to hear the crime, and you can't freely develop into an illiterate, thank God; secondly, the Zheng family is not strong enough. He wished he could step on another hundred thousand feet in person; in the end, Wen Zui's reputation with the outside world was bad, and logically speaking, he had no way to make friends with powerful officials at all...
Not to mention, there are all the tribulations of people (palace people), the murder caused by occupying the status of the only legitimate son, the most terrifying thing is the malice from his own father, Tianhedi's attitude towards sin It was no longer as simple as letting Wen Zui to fend for himself in the Queen's old palace, but a tacit consent that he neither wanted to be accused of murdering his son, but secretly hoped that he would die soon.
Only Qi Yifei encountered at least two times when he was in danger of dying.In other words, when Qi Yifei didn't know, he might not know what it was like.
This is also one of the reasons why Qi Yifei has never doubted that the Seventh Prince is the regent.
Wen Zui's past was really too miserable, and Qi Yifei once felt that it was already a miracle of life that Wen Zui could persist in living.
Who would have thought that after this happened, Wen Zui could find an opportunity to rebound from the bottom.This... is what you should have a wanton life after having cheats all the way!
But unfortunately, Wen Gui didn't hang up, he only had himself.
Qi Yifei, who is concerned, can only rely on others, and develops insignificantly, but looking for a chance to live, it can be said that he is very hopeless.
Because of this, Qi Yifei couldn't find any other adjectives besides admiration for hearing the crime.
No wonder his grandfather wanted to hide it from him and let him have a relationship with Wen Zui's peers.This is a big gamble.If the bet is right, it will naturally skyrocket from then on, with a bright future.Losing the bet, in fact, the Qi family has nothing to lose, they are the fish on the regent's chopping board, the worst is nothing more than that, they might as well give it a go.
To be honest, if he revealed his identity as soon as he heard about the crime, Qi Yifei probably wouldn't have the courage to use the current method to post it to increase his lifespan.
The current situation is the same, Qi Yifei "doesn't know", so he can continue to "shameless"!
As for whether Qi Yifei felt deceived by the crime...
And really, weirdly, no.
On the one hand, Qi Yifei knew very well that this was his own admission of a mistake, and he was no different from anyone else, and Wenzuo never denied his identity at all.
On the other hand, Qi Yifei probably felt very good about Wenzuo. Even though he knew Wenzuo had two faces, Qi Yifei still felt that it was not a big deal.After all, Wen Zui specially arranged the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, obviously intending to confess.This August [-]th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is almost here.
In order to increase his lifespan, Qi Yifei was really a little slanted and frantic. He even thought about the feasibility of "pushing away the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet so that he can continue to pretend he doesn't know about the Seventh Prince=Regent".
For the time being, just think about it, because no matter how you evade it, it will appear deliberate.
You can only take one step at a time, prepare with both hands, and have two sets of ideas.
In short, it is always right to attract as much as possible to the regent while the identity has not been revealed!
Ever since, Qi Yifei, who was planning to walk half a step behind Wen Zui, took a big step, passed through his wide sleeves, and took Wen Zui's slender and fair hand, and gave it a go!
Wen Zui had no expression on his face, but his footsteps were half a mess.However, once he grabbed Qi Yifei's hand, he didn't intend to let go!Qi Yifei took the initiative!
Rubbing back and forth, enjoying the warmth and coolness, I pictured the appearance of Rou Yi bit by bit in my mind.
There has never been a person, just a small detail, that can make him so excited and fascinated him so much.
Wen Zui suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he changed his appearance and secretly learned to read with a blind and kind old woman in the palace.In fact, the old lady didn't know much, she just memorized some romantic things by rote, so that she could read to the girls back then.Based on her impressions, she confessed her sins word by word, one of which was "King Xiang intends it, Goddess has no intention".
The point of the old mother is that King Xiang is so sad that he can't get what he asks for.She really believed that Wen Zui was a bullied little eunuch, and warned him that even though he was born in a wealthy imperial city, nothing belonged to him, don't be unfair, don't have delusions, and only by doing your duty can you live a long life.
Hearing the guilt, what he can think about is that the goddess "has never existed in ancient times, and has never been seen in the world".
He still couldn't understand what kind of thrilling it was, which could make people lose themselves.
Until when he was a teenager, he stood far away in the shade and saw Qi Yifei hugging him.With white teeth and blue eyebrows, at a young age, she only wore a very simple plain dress, but there was nothing wrong with it.He walked slowly across the second floor of the pavilion, and when he turned around to look back, he could never forget it with just one glance.
The reunion downstairs in Yuejiang, the mottled memory, reappeared yesterday, in the dislocation of light and shadow, Wen Zui felt as if he was in an extremely unreal dream.
There is Qi Yifei in the dream, who will talk to him, smile at him, and hold his hand actively.
He didn't dare to ask why Qi Yifei was so sudden and active.I'm afraid that Qi Yifei's brain circuit is strange and different from what he thinks.However, it is also good to have a moment of happiness.Since it's a dream, let's have a big dream happily, and only hope that this dream will never wake up.
"Can you accompany me to see Abao first?" Qi Yifei called a friend as an explanation for his sudden behavior.
If Zhang Zhen didn't still have a soul, Qi Yifei would definitely not have done this.But now... Although his body is gone, Qi Yifei always feels that Zhang Zhen is not really dead.So, good brother, it's up to you!
Zhang Zhen was quite calm about this. Since meeting Qi Yifei yesterday, apart from being lively and talkative, there was a trace of wisdom and openness in his eyes that he never had before.Brothers are not brothers, and those who have broken sleeves are not, just be happy.Of course, as a qualified Peeves, he didn't forget to hold his face in both hands on purpose, distorted his appearance, and teased: [You pair of lewd and reckless dogs and men, I'm still alive! ! ! 】Qi Yifei raised his eyebrows, as if asking Zhang Zhen, do you mind?
Zhang Zhen waved her hands in a hurry, she doesn't mind, she doesn't mind, his family still depends on Qi Yifei and the regent for their livelihood.To be honest, you don't need to pay any price to hug your thigh. Who wouldn't want such a good thing?Anyway, he thought about it, and he didn't feel embarrassed!
[Beautiful job! 】
【As expected of my brother! 】
[Capture the thief first, capture the king first, we are safe this time! 】
Zhang Zhen's mind was very active, and she swiped the screen very quickly. Qi Yifei had to pay attention to the regent all the way, and Zhang Zhen didn't have time to read some of Zhang Zhen's words, and was directly skipped.
The regent was so distracted by his own brain, that he had captured himself.While thinking about Qi Yifei's hand, he felt that he could protect Qi Yifei, which almost made him lose control, and he was about to confess on the spot.But in the end, his rationality stopped him immediately, no matter how close he and Qi Yifei became, the contradiction of the old emperor was always there, and if it was not resolved, it would be a hidden danger every day.So, no, he still has to endure, for their future!
Relatives.Not on a channel at all.Yi Fei was thinking, Wen Zui didn't get rid of him, the regent was indeed transformed by a little angel!
The outside world has a lot of misunderstandings about the Prince Regent!
The side hall where Zhang Zhen's body was kept had been completely arranged overnight to look like a qualified mourning hall.The mortuary clothes are displayed in the east chamber, the sacrificial table is placed under the doorstep, the coffin is parked in the west of the main room, white lamps are hung, plain silk is hung, incense is laid and food is laid... flowers are like brocade.
Well, the last one is Qi Yifei's other kind of request, but no matter how weird the request is, Wenzuo has settled it for him.
If you look closely, you can see that there are all kinds of things such as the spiritual seat, soul silk, and inscriptions. There are everything that should be there, and there are also things that should not be there.
It stands to reason that Zhang Zhen, as a white body without even any fame, even if she is the son of the second assistant, the funeral standard can only be the same as that of the common people, not to mention that his father and the whole family are now convicted and sent to prison.
But judging by the current situation, it is already the family members of officials of the fourth and fifth ranks, and they must be careful about the scope of the defendant's overreach.
That's it, Mr. Liu of Jinyiwei didn't think it was enough, and carefully explained to Qi Yifei: "It is reasonable to say that there should be steps such as restoration of the ceremony (calling the soul), small burial, large burial, finished clothes, and hanging memorial ceremony. I was not sure what your plan was before, whether to build another mourning hall, or to do it here directly, so I can only make a hasty arrangement for the time being, please forgive me."
Qi Yifei had participated in funerals, but he hadn't followed through with them, let alone ancient funerals. Hearing what Mr. Liu said, his head was already big.
Hurry up and say, "First, let's do it this way, it's very good, I'm sorry, my lord."
"Don't dare." Master Liu hurriedly waved his hand, not daring to accept this thank you.This is the person who dared to hold hands with the Prince Regent directly, and was thanked so solemnly by the other party, Mr. Liu was afraid that he would have a life to listen to, but not a life to enjoy it.
The Prince Regent's smile behind his back is already dangerous!
The troupe that Qi Yifei wanted had already set up a stage in the small courtyard.Well, no kidding, I'm really ready to sing.I invited the most popular Xiangyun troupe at the moment. You can sing Nanxi opera in Wu Nong's soft language, and there are also more vulgar and elegant dramas. The troupe owner's surname is Sun. He brought up his own daughter.
Team Leader Sun knew Qi Yifei. To be precise, there was no well-known playboy in Beijing or a young man in Jinling that he didn't know.On the contrary, it was Qi Yifei who heard the crime behind him, which made him a little unfamiliar, but he would always go forward and kneel down to pay his respects, saying that he would not make a big mistake.
After paying his respects with his disciples and grandchildren, Team Leader Sun was a little undecided, wondering if he should talk more and ask a few more questions.
"What's wrong?" Qi Yifei took the initiative to talk to solve problems.
"Master, please order a play." When Jin Yiwei asked Xiangyun troupe to come to prison, he didn't say what he wanted to do, and the whole troupe was scared all day long, thinking that they must die here today.The limp Xiaosheng cried and fainted again and again, and cried and fainted again and again, back and forth several times, and his voice is still hoarse.
When they arrived, it was finally clear that they were not used for interrogation, but invited to perform for the dead.
After listening to Team Leader Sun, he became even more terrified, because this is not like human words at all.It is unheard of to have such a demand for a theater troupe.Did you find the wrong person?The great monk of Baoen Temple is obviously more suitable to undertake this business than them.Or have a grudge against the dead?In front of the coffin, there is a big show with gongs and drums?Don't be afraid of harming Yinde!No, this is the lack of virtue!
Leader Sun really didn't know what to sing, how to sing, and how long to sing.
Jin Yiwei himself couldn't explain clearly, so he could only wave out the Xiuchun Knife, and he didn't need to say anything, just sing and finish.Team leader Sun could only put up an airs and wait for time, and finally waited for King Qi Xiaojun, who seemed to be able to call the shots.
"Do you know who's lying inside?" Qi Yifei didn't explain directly, but just raised his hand and pointed to Team Leader Sun.
"Small stupid." Leader Sun lowered his head almost to the ground, not because he was really stupid, but because he didn't dare to ask at all.All over the world, except for the Regent, there is no one who is not afraid of Jin Yiwei.
"Your grandfather."
After hearing about Zhang Zhen, Team Leader Sun didn't have so many strange and doubts, and he didn't feel that asking the troupe to perform for the coffin was an act of enmity, because it was indeed something Zhang Zhen could do.
It's just so righteous and absurd.
Qi Yifei has never liked to listen to opera, no matter how trendy it is, it will give him an inexplicable feeling of passing away.This is quite strange. After recovering his memory, he suddenly realized that he is just an old man. In his impression, this is all intangible cultural heritage.
But Zhang Zhen, as a qualified ancient dandy, just likes these ages.Holding actors, smashing money, and doing a lot of stupid things.One time, she confusedly provoked a famous actress in the capital, crying and shouting that Feiqing would not marry, which frightened Zhang Zhen, and she didn't dare to spend another penny on anyone for two months.
Zhang Zhen just wanted to listen to the drama, and didn't want to develop a relationship.
But also because of this misunderstanding, Zhang Zhen's marriage was full of twists and turns, and finally settled on the second lady of the Shangshu family.She doesn't dislike his reputation, because she prefers to believe her eyes.
After waiting for a while, Team Leader Sun realized that it was not Zhang Zhen who invited someone, but Zhang Zhen.
"My heavenly grandfather, why are you so jealous of talents!" The class leader confirmed that Zhang Zhen died, and that was really sad.It is no exaggeration, after all, Zhang Zhen is the big sponsor of their troupe.
In the first half of the year, the Zhang family happily sent people a deposit, saying that they would invite them to sing for three days and three nights on the day of Young Master Zhang's wedding. She tailors a new play that she likes.
It's a pity that such a thing happened before the order receipt from the second lady's house.
Zhang Zhen never went to the garden to listen to the opera again, nor did she ask for the theater troupe deposit he had prepared for Second Miss.
"The young ones must sing with all their heart, but they don't take any money." Leader Sun has been in the drama circle all year round, and when he speaks normally, there is always such a sense of singing and fighting.But a heart is real, it's hard for others to tell, but he can't be sorry for Master Zhang's deposit.
"How much can I have as a deposit? This money is absolutely indispensable to you, not only that, but it will be doubled after singing well." Qi Yifei didn't expect Zhang Zhen to get such a good relationship, and his heart was so hot that he couldn't let good people suffer. .
Zhang Zhen's side was already happy, and she was about to laugh like a flower: [My son is popular, don't you need to talk about it?He is also the old boy who remembers me, Ah Fei, don't lose him.I'll tell you where I hid my private money. ] "Sing it for you, Mr. Zhang. He can sing whatever he likes to listen to. He doesn't care about the form, but he wants to be lively."
Zhang Zhen was so excited that she flew over the eaves and walls, and performed a top flip for Qi Xiaojun Wang Lidi. After five and a half weeks, she turned around. The degree of difficulty was immeasurable. ] "By the way, keep your voice down as much as possible, and don't disturb the adults in front of you at work." Qi Yifei added to Team Leader Sun.Just let Zhang Zhen hear it.
"No need." Wen Zui finally found a chance to interject, and said arbitrarily, "It doesn't matter."
"How can this not affect it?" Qi Yifei was surprised, looked at the distance between the side hall and the front, it was almost none, and there was no sound insulation technology in ancient times, one end was solving the case and the other was singing, the picture must be eye-catching.
"It doesn't affect it, it doesn't affect it!" Jin Yiwei hurriedly shook his head in unison, as if he had never been dog-legged, and he imagined his grandson even more than Squad Leader Sun.
Qi Yifei: "...All right."
Then, he opened his voice and sang for Zhang Zhenqing.
Accompanied by "Dongfeng is intoxicated with yellow vine wine, the past is like smoke and cannot be traced", Qi Yifei took Wen Zui's hand, walked to the altar, and solemnly put three sticks of incense on Zhang Zhen's tablet.In the curling clouds and mist, only Wen Zui's narrow, long and spirited eyes are left.
Zhang Zhen was applauding the opera singer, but what she sighed was an inappropriate sentence: [Returning the old-fashioned way, take pity on the person in front of you, the person in front of you! 】When he saw the word "human", Qi Yifei happened to look up again and looked at Wen Zui. In the absurdity of singing and sighing three times, they could only see each other, and only wanted to see each other.
The hands that were held together seemed to be on fire in the ambiguous air, but no one wanted to let go.
In the end, how Qi Yifei rearranged his clothes, stepped into the imperial prison, and saw Zhang Ji who was in a mess and looked like a madman, Qi Yifei himself couldn't remember much.
Even the not-so-pleasant smell of blood in the prison couldn't make Qi Yifei forget the glance that Wen Zui looked at him amidst the fireworks.
Soul-stirring, not like ordinary people.
Qi Yifei finally separated from Wen Zui, and he was led into a private room by Mr. Liu.There was only a table and two chairs in the room, Mr. Zhang Jizhang was tied to the plain and simple chair; the one that looked a little cleaner was reserved for Qi Yifei.
No matter how Mr. Zhang is, at least his love for children is true.He didn't need to show anyone the heartbreaking pain of the sudden loss of a child, he had already interpreted it vividly with his own despondency.After hearing the news of Zhang Zhen's suicide, Zhang Ji turned gray all night, more helpless than despair.
Suddenly seeing Qi Yifei coming in, Zhang Ji didn't even recognize him, and after a while he focused his eyes and called Qi Yifei the right title: "His Royal Highness."
"Master Zhang." Qi Yifei and Zhang Ji have always been like this, maintaining a more polite manner than strangers, together for the sake of Zhang Zhen, they restrained themselves and endured each other.
Qi Yifei didn't sit on the chair prepared for him because he asked Zhang Zhen to sit on it.
Zhang Zhenming knew that his father was here, so he didn't have the courage to come and visit yesterday.Today, with Qi Yifei as his company to strengthen his courage, he moved in a little bit.He was never so afraid of his father when he was so angry with the teacher in the study when he was a child.
He timidly called out: 【Father. 】
***
Wen Zui, Liu Xishi and the others were waiting outside the door of the single room, separated by a wooden door, and couldn't quite hear what was being said inside, but if Qi Yifei was in danger, they would be able to rush in immediately if they shouted.
After sending off Qi Yifei, Wen Zui no longer had a smile on his face, and the feeling that the contours of the whole person were softened disappeared completely.He didn't speak, just stood at the door, even if he couldn't see, he was still waiting for Qi Yifei persistently.
While waiting, Wen Zui listened to some reports by the way, something he would never let Qi Yifei hear.
"The coffins of sinners Wen Luo, Wen Gang, Wen Fu and others have all been reopened, and the bodies have been confirmed to be correct. Their relatives have not changed."
"The Second Highness is still insane, the Fifth Highness is still in Shenji Camp, and the Sixth Highness is bedridden with a long illness..."
"The son of the humble prince, the son of the respected prince..."
All those who may have ambitions, even if they are dead, are still under Wen Gui's control, not relaxing for a moment.Therefore, even if Zhang Ji doesn't say anything, it will only be a matter of time before Jin Yiwei finds out who is behind the scenes.
It's just that the sooner they are caught, the less casualties will be.
After Jin Yiwei finished all his reports, he waited for a while, and then the door of the single room was opened from the inside.What was left to everyone was Zhang Ji who cried bitterly without knowing why, while Qi Yifei was still the good young man who did not suffer from troubled times.
Mr. Liu Xishi personally presided over Zhang Ji. He knew how difficult Zhang Ji was to deal with. He really didn't expect Qi Yifei to succeed.Therefore, he has a deeper estimate of Qi Yifei's ability.I couldn't help but feel a chill down my back. This Qi Xiaojun King might be the one who was misled by all of them. Just treating him like this, he can't be really a kind person who doesn't know the world.
"A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Qi Yifei stepped forward, not hiding anything from Wen Zui.
"The good news is that you asked?" Wen Zui didn't follow the routine at all. Seeing Qi Yifei's appearance, he knew that he would probably make all Jin Yiwei who were helpless against Zhang Ji feel ashamed.
A true master of torture is always attacking the heart.
"Yes." Qi Yifei nodded.In fact, it is very simple to ask this question, as long as you tell Zhang Ji the truth, it is not impossible for Wen Zui, Master Liu and others to do this, but Zhang Ji will not believe what they say.Qi Yifei is Zhang Zhen's friend, so it's different, especially when Zhang Zhen is also there.
"But the bad news is that what Zhang Ji knew was probably false information." Qi Yifei sighed, a little frustrated.Zhang Ji is really speechless, what kind of life is this selling?
"How?" Wen Zui raised his eyebrows.
"He told me that it was the third prince Wen Gang who ordered him to do this." The third prince was the one that Fu Li read as a companion. His mother and concubine were rare and prominent among the concubines who were born as civilians.
This is because Daqi's rules for selecting concubines are to adopt more folks and focus on the poor.
From the root cause, as much as possible to prevent the harem from interfering in politics.The natal families of the princes are basically nobles who were conferred only after one person attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven.
This also makes the third prince so different. From the perspective of his family, the third prince is like a RMB player. While others are still working hard in Xinshou Village, he has already fled to the sky and escaped. , omnipotent.But success and Xiao He defeated Xiao He, the third prince never expected that his final defeat would also be defeated by his proud natal family.
This hundred-year-old clan has been rotten from the root, before the big event can be accomplished, but for the benefit of the future, it has strangled you to the death, dragging down the third prince.
In the forced duel with the eldest prince, the third prince was pierced by thousands of arrows after being accused of the crime.
"Do you think it's strange? The third prince is a dead man, how can he give an order?" Qi Yifei didn't have any good ideas, so he could only ask Wenzuo for details, "Or is he not dead?"
"He's dead." Wen Zui just confirmed that it was Wen Gang lying in Wen Gang's coffin, not an impostor, he had no more operas, and his natal family had already collapsed.
The thread just ended.
But Qi Yifei didn't seem to be discouraged at all, because he had already thought about this problem inside, and they could start from other aspects.It's like... the death of the second lady of the Shangshu family.
At that time, the situation in Beijing was chaotic, which made it easy for people behind the scenes to fish in troubled waters, but it also made it easier for Qi Yifei and others to re-examine the cocoon afterwards, rule out all kinds of impossibilities, and find the only remaining possibility.
"I'll have someone investigate the case case for you." They happened to be in prison.
"No need." Qi Yifei has already learned more comprehensive news from Zhang Zhen. Zhang Zhen has worked so hard to track down the death of his fiancée, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. "I already know."
Wen Zui thought it was Zhang Ji who told Qi Yifei: "Then who do you suspect?"
"Second Miss threw herself into the river, and it happened almost in spring, on a night of watching lanterns. On the Huaiqin River, under the watchful eyes of everyone, she was resting on the second floor of the boat by herself, but suddenly she fell headlong into the rushing water, and she was no longer alive." Qi Yifei briefly introduced the situation at that time.
Wen Zui nodded: "The version I heard is almost the same, except..."
Except that the second lady shouted before she died, I don't want to marry him.
Naturally, no one dared to say this to Qi Yifei.
"It's just rumors, it's not credible." Qi Yifei shook his head and waved his hands, "I still know a little bit about what the rumors are like."
When Qi Yifei was just born, everyone was just saying that the day he and his elder sister were born coincided with the border victory; For many days, the cloudy rain stopped suddenly; and later, even the blessings of the heavens, the auspicious rainbow, and the golden light that Qi Yifei felt in his arms when his mother was pregnant, were all pulled out.
The more he talked, the more he talked, if Qi Yifei hadn't been the person involved, he would have almost believed that there could be such a miraculous person in the world.
"You're right." Wen Zui couldn't help laughing. He himself was like this. When his mother gave birth to him, he died of dystocia, but in the end it turned into wind and rain, ghosts crying and wolves howling. All the weather was abnormal, "this The words may indeed be conjectured by passers-by.”
At that time, the boat was so far away from the shore, if it was close, it would be impossible to save the second miss.How could someone hear what she said before she died?
"and then?"
"Then, let's talk on the way."
Qi Yifei left the imperial prison with Wen Zuo, and when he got into the car, he could still hear Leader Sun's beautiful daughter, babbling and drinking softly inside.Zhang Zhen watched Qi Yifei leave, and at the end she still didn't forget to say: [Don't force yourself too much, it doesn't matter if you can't find the murderer.I'm not a ghost, it doesn't matter if I have unfulfilled wishes or not. 】Qi Yifei nodded to Zhang Zhen without any trace, and he will do what he can.Even if he can't, he will find someone who can!
After getting into the car, Wengui pretended to be smooth, and never let go of Qi Yifei's hand. In fact, he was carefully observing Qi Yifei's expression all the time. Seeing that he was not only not angry, but also very happy, he put his heart back in stomach.
Wen Zui had nothing to say and asked, "Where are we going?"
"Would you like to eat hot pot upstairs in Yuejiang Tower?" Qi Yifei gave a particularly surprising answer.
"En?" Hearing the crime, he was stunned for a moment, didn't he just say that he wanted to investigate the case?
Qi Yifei pointed to the big sun outside the curtain of the car: "You have the energy to work when you are full. Let's chat while eating. The only question is, can you eat spicy food?"
Qi Yifei has a cook and grandmother from Sichuan, who has been fond of spicy food since he was a child.
"Coincidentally, me too." To be precise, Wen Zui can eat anything, as long as he can fill his stomach, he has eaten everything.He didn't care about what he put into his mouth, "It's just that I'm not very good at eating spicy food, so I'm going to make you laugh."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we are the whole mandarin duck pot."
***
Yuejiang Tower, which means Yuejiang Range Rover, is the tallest building in Yongji.The outer four floors, the dark three floors, the high eaves and teeth, and the Dange dialing the clouds. It was originally built as a royal garden. Later, for some reason, it was ordered to stop work by the Taizu. It’s better to put it there, it’s better to resume work, use it to open up, have fun with the people, and make some money.
Opening gardens to the common people is a tradition that existed in previous dynasties.Entry and exit are free, but tea and snacks have to be paid out of pocket.
Later, this Yuejiang Building developed a one-stop catering service, and inexplicably became the No. 1 building of Yongji.
Now most people go, not to see the scenery, but to eat.
After Yuejianglou earned a large amount of income, not only was it responsible for its own profit and loss, but it could also contribute a sum of money to the emperor's private treasury every year, so it gained grace and expanded again and again.Originally, the original Yuejiang Tower was built on the hillside, overlooking the Huai and Qin Dynasties. Part of the current Yuejiang Tower has stood facing the street, which is the part that Qi Yifei passed by when he just returned to Beijing.
When Qi Yifei and Wen Zui arrived, the steaming ceramic pot bottom had already been prepared, and it was placed on the tall building with the best view, with the windows open and a slanted railing outside where people could sit and enjoy the view.
As soon as I entered the room, there was a burst of spicy fragrance, which made people's tongues salivate and their index fingers twitched.
But what Qi Yifei paid more attention to was the scenery of Huai Qin outside. He walked to the fence and asked Wen Zui: "You said, how can you be sure who fell from the boat at that time at such a long distance?" It's dark, as long as you find someone who is about the same size as the second lady, put on the clothes of the second lady, jump off, and that's it.
The method of counterfeiting couldn't be simpler.
First, the second lady was drowned in the water, and thrown into the river in advance, and then pretended to be thrown into the river.The murderer himself is good at swimming, so he can swim to other places. When someone finds him, the only one who catches him is the dead Second Miss.
The only problem is that the maid saw it with her own eyes before the second lady went upstairs to the boat.Later, the second lady dismissed everyone and stayed alone on the second floor, while the maid stood guard at the stairs, and never let anyone go up to disturb her.
"Ambush in advance?" Qi Yifei proposed an idea. Someone already knew about the second lady's itinerary and hid on the second floor in advance.
"The boats don't belong to the second lady's house. She lent her a handkerchief. And she suddenly got up and proposed to go swimming in the river and put the lanterns on." Wen Zui still asked someone to bring the case file, and he himself needed to be careful. Take a look at the beginning and end.
All signs indicated that this could only be an accident, or that the second lady chose to commit suicide.
Even if it is now clearly known that it was actually a homicide, it is still difficult to find evidence to restore it.
Qi Yifei thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out, so he could only sit down with Wen Zui, and started to eat hot pot, hoping that the hot pot's spicy taste would be able to understand everything and help them find their way of thinking again——
Mutton, hairy tripe, oily bean curd, and the secret sesame sauce dipping sauce, after one bite, you will feel, go to the gods, I want to stay in the world!
The spicy pot tripe is so delicious that it will fly, and it will be a delicacy if you simply rinse it up and down.
——Whether the train of thought came to pass in the end, it's hard to say, but Qi Yifei's eyes were hazy from being hot, that's for sure.
Well, although King Qi Xiaojun likes spicy food, he is actually not very good at spicy food, just like a person who doesn't hold a lot of alcohol, but still likes to drink.
Every time Qi Yifei ate spicy food, he would cry.Not squeamish crying, but physiological running water.
But Qi Yifei just likes the feeling of being refreshed after eating.He also knows that when he eats, he looks a little indecent, so those who can see him eating hot pot are really friendly.If it wasn't for his friends, he could only choose to silence him.
After hearing the crime, he said very seriously: "I can help you silence it."
Qi Yifei laughed out loud, smiling, not knowing whether Wen Zui was joking or telling the truth.The seventh prince he knew must be joking with him when he heard about the crime; but the regent he didn't know might be telling the truth when he heard about the crime, he was so cruel and unreasonable.
And Wen Zui, who said he was not very good at eating spicy food, ate without changing his face, taking one bite after another. He really didn't have too many requirements for food.As long as he can eat and drink, that's fine. He still has time to spare his hands and cook meat for Qi Yifei.
Watching Qi Yifei eat is also a very happy thing for Wen Zui. There is no reason, but to see Qi Yifei still has such a good appetite, and he is really happy from the bottom of his heart.
After eating, Qi Yifei was not surprised, his lips were red from the heat, he was sweating all over, and his clothes were miraculously disheveled.It can be said that the food is very heroic, and the chaos has no image.
But the military division of the Northwest Army who chased after him from the border and was in charge of sending Qi Yifei his sister's family letter...
But his eyes couldn't help but linger on Wen Zui and Qi Yifei.
With such blurry eyes, flushed cheeks, and leaning your head on other people's body, do you have no bones? !What are you doing humming? !
Of course, digestion.
Hot pot is such a miraculous ingredient that it is always easy to overeat and bloat, and Qi Yifei, who is uncomfortable, doesn't want to think about it at all.Of course, there is also a little bit that wants to take the opportunity to have all-round skin-to-skin contact so as to increase lifespan faster.Facts have proved that the larger the contact area, the life span seems to increase a little faster.
Wen Zui naturally enjoyed the beautiful woman's embrace, and patiently rubbed Qi Yifei's belly clockwise.
Those who serve are more dedicated than taking care of themselves.
The military division who came to deliver the letter had the double surname of Youqin, and his single name was a division.There was a luthier, those who didn't know it thought it was a famous actress and oiran somewhere in the south of the Yangtze River.But he is indeed a man with a height of eight feet and a thin body like paper. Despite the wind and sun, he still looks like a little boy.The friendship with Qi Yifei was only established in the last two years, and it is not friendship more, but worrying like an old lady.
From his mistress, Qi Yiyi's entrustment.
Well, Princess Qi's original words are: Please take care of me, please take care of my younger brother, don't let him kill himself.
Military division Youqin departed from the border many days later than Qi Yifei, but he traveled day and night, and the days of entering Beijing were not much different from Qi Yifei.Before entering the city, he was already kneeling down for Qi Yifei's feat in the past few days. He thought that he was only a few days late, and nothing major would happen.In the end, he still underestimated Qi Yifei's ability to kill.
Army Master Youqin couldn't wait for a moment, so he went directly to Yuejiang Tower.He was really worried that Qi Yifei's outrageous words would lead to his death.Others don't understand sins, but he knows it all too well.
Because his family's young general is the one who partnered with Wen Zui and boldly invested in his military!
In the end, I opened the door and took a look... After a lot of patience, Army Master Youqin didn't blurt out, you, you two, in broad daylight, unseemly, what were you doing in the house just now? ! ! !
Of course, what should I do, what should I do.
There must be emotions such as "shock", but the main direction of Qi Yifei's shock is - growing up so big, it is the first time for him to get close to the truth.Counterattack the hero.
How did this happen?
Wen Zui's hand of cards is really not as bad as someone who has never been in contact with can imagine.Oh, no, no, before Wen Zuo didn't even have the chance to get cards at the table.
First of all, being diligent in Jing's study means that you don't have the responsibility to hear the crime, and you can't freely develop into an illiterate, thank God; secondly, the Zheng family is not strong enough. He wished he could step on another hundred thousand feet in person; in the end, Wen Zui's reputation with the outside world was bad, and logically speaking, he had no way to make friends with powerful officials at all...
Not to mention, there are all the tribulations of people (palace people), the murder caused by occupying the status of the only legitimate son, the most terrifying thing is the malice from his own father, Tianhedi's attitude towards sin It was no longer as simple as letting Wen Zui to fend for himself in the Queen's old palace, but a tacit consent that he neither wanted to be accused of murdering his son, but secretly hoped that he would die soon.
Only Qi Yifei encountered at least two times when he was in danger of dying.In other words, when Qi Yifei didn't know, he might not know what it was like.
This is also one of the reasons why Qi Yifei has never doubted that the Seventh Prince is the regent.
Wen Zui's past was really too miserable, and Qi Yifei once felt that it was already a miracle of life that Wen Zui could persist in living.
Who would have thought that after this happened, Wen Zui could find an opportunity to rebound from the bottom.This... is what you should have a wanton life after having cheats all the way!
But unfortunately, Wen Gui didn't hang up, he only had himself.
Qi Yifei, who is concerned, can only rely on others, and develops insignificantly, but looking for a chance to live, it can be said that he is very hopeless.
Because of this, Qi Yifei couldn't find any other adjectives besides admiration for hearing the crime.
No wonder his grandfather wanted to hide it from him and let him have a relationship with Wen Zui's peers.This is a big gamble.If the bet is right, it will naturally skyrocket from then on, with a bright future.Losing the bet, in fact, the Qi family has nothing to lose, they are the fish on the regent's chopping board, the worst is nothing more than that, they might as well give it a go.
To be honest, if he revealed his identity as soon as he heard about the crime, Qi Yifei probably wouldn't have the courage to use the current method to post it to increase his lifespan.
The current situation is the same, Qi Yifei "doesn't know", so he can continue to "shameless"!
As for whether Qi Yifei felt deceived by the crime...
And really, weirdly, no.
On the one hand, Qi Yifei knew very well that this was his own admission of a mistake, and he was no different from anyone else, and Wenzuo never denied his identity at all.
On the other hand, Qi Yifei probably felt very good about Wenzuo. Even though he knew Wenzuo had two faces, Qi Yifei still felt that it was not a big deal.After all, Wen Zui specially arranged the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, obviously intending to confess.This August [-]th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is almost here.
In order to increase his lifespan, Qi Yifei was really a little slanted and frantic. He even thought about the feasibility of "pushing away the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet so that he can continue to pretend he doesn't know about the Seventh Prince=Regent".
For the time being, just think about it, because no matter how you evade it, it will appear deliberate.
You can only take one step at a time, prepare with both hands, and have two sets of ideas.
In short, it is always right to attract as much as possible to the regent while the identity has not been revealed!
Ever since, Qi Yifei, who was planning to walk half a step behind Wen Zui, took a big step, passed through his wide sleeves, and took Wen Zui's slender and fair hand, and gave it a go!
Wen Zui had no expression on his face, but his footsteps were half a mess.However, once he grabbed Qi Yifei's hand, he didn't intend to let go!Qi Yifei took the initiative!
Rubbing back and forth, enjoying the warmth and coolness, I pictured the appearance of Rou Yi bit by bit in my mind.
There has never been a person, just a small detail, that can make him so excited and fascinated him so much.
Wen Zui suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he changed his appearance and secretly learned to read with a blind and kind old woman in the palace.In fact, the old lady didn't know much, she just memorized some romantic things by rote, so that she could read to the girls back then.Based on her impressions, she confessed her sins word by word, one of which was "King Xiang intends it, Goddess has no intention".
The point of the old mother is that King Xiang is so sad that he can't get what he asks for.She really believed that Wen Zui was a bullied little eunuch, and warned him that even though he was born in a wealthy imperial city, nothing belonged to him, don't be unfair, don't have delusions, and only by doing your duty can you live a long life.
Hearing the guilt, what he can think about is that the goddess "has never existed in ancient times, and has never been seen in the world".
He still couldn't understand what kind of thrilling it was, which could make people lose themselves.
Until when he was a teenager, he stood far away in the shade and saw Qi Yifei hugging him.With white teeth and blue eyebrows, at a young age, she only wore a very simple plain dress, but there was nothing wrong with it.He walked slowly across the second floor of the pavilion, and when he turned around to look back, he could never forget it with just one glance.
The reunion downstairs in Yuejiang, the mottled memory, reappeared yesterday, in the dislocation of light and shadow, Wen Zui felt as if he was in an extremely unreal dream.
There is Qi Yifei in the dream, who will talk to him, smile at him, and hold his hand actively.
He didn't dare to ask why Qi Yifei was so sudden and active.I'm afraid that Qi Yifei's brain circuit is strange and different from what he thinks.However, it is also good to have a moment of happiness.Since it's a dream, let's have a big dream happily, and only hope that this dream will never wake up.
"Can you accompany me to see Abao first?" Qi Yifei called a friend as an explanation for his sudden behavior.
If Zhang Zhen didn't still have a soul, Qi Yifei would definitely not have done this.But now... Although his body is gone, Qi Yifei always feels that Zhang Zhen is not really dead.So, good brother, it's up to you!
Zhang Zhen was quite calm about this. Since meeting Qi Yifei yesterday, apart from being lively and talkative, there was a trace of wisdom and openness in his eyes that he never had before.Brothers are not brothers, and those who have broken sleeves are not, just be happy.Of course, as a qualified Peeves, he didn't forget to hold his face in both hands on purpose, distorted his appearance, and teased: [You pair of lewd and reckless dogs and men, I'm still alive! ! ! 】Qi Yifei raised his eyebrows, as if asking Zhang Zhen, do you mind?
Zhang Zhen waved her hands in a hurry, she doesn't mind, she doesn't mind, his family still depends on Qi Yifei and the regent for their livelihood.To be honest, you don't need to pay any price to hug your thigh. Who wouldn't want such a good thing?Anyway, he thought about it, and he didn't feel embarrassed!
[Beautiful job! 】
【As expected of my brother! 】
[Capture the thief first, capture the king first, we are safe this time! 】
Zhang Zhen's mind was very active, and she swiped the screen very quickly. Qi Yifei had to pay attention to the regent all the way, and Zhang Zhen didn't have time to read some of Zhang Zhen's words, and was directly skipped.
The regent was so distracted by his own brain, that he had captured himself.While thinking about Qi Yifei's hand, he felt that he could protect Qi Yifei, which almost made him lose control, and he was about to confess on the spot.But in the end, his rationality stopped him immediately, no matter how close he and Qi Yifei became, the contradiction of the old emperor was always there, and if it was not resolved, it would be a hidden danger every day.So, no, he still has to endure, for their future!
Relatives.Not on a channel at all.Yi Fei was thinking, Wen Zui didn't get rid of him, the regent was indeed transformed by a little angel!
The outside world has a lot of misunderstandings about the Prince Regent!
The side hall where Zhang Zhen's body was kept had been completely arranged overnight to look like a qualified mourning hall.The mortuary clothes are displayed in the east chamber, the sacrificial table is placed under the doorstep, the coffin is parked in the west of the main room, white lamps are hung, plain silk is hung, incense is laid and food is laid... flowers are like brocade.
Well, the last one is Qi Yifei's other kind of request, but no matter how weird the request is, Wenzuo has settled it for him.
If you look closely, you can see that there are all kinds of things such as the spiritual seat, soul silk, and inscriptions. There are everything that should be there, and there are also things that should not be there.
It stands to reason that Zhang Zhen, as a white body without even any fame, even if she is the son of the second assistant, the funeral standard can only be the same as that of the common people, not to mention that his father and the whole family are now convicted and sent to prison.
But judging by the current situation, it is already the family members of officials of the fourth and fifth ranks, and they must be careful about the scope of the defendant's overreach.
That's it, Mr. Liu of Jinyiwei didn't think it was enough, and carefully explained to Qi Yifei: "It is reasonable to say that there should be steps such as restoration of the ceremony (calling the soul), small burial, large burial, finished clothes, and hanging memorial ceremony. I was not sure what your plan was before, whether to build another mourning hall, or to do it here directly, so I can only make a hasty arrangement for the time being, please forgive me."
Qi Yifei had participated in funerals, but he hadn't followed through with them, let alone ancient funerals. Hearing what Mr. Liu said, his head was already big.
Hurry up and say, "First, let's do it this way, it's very good, I'm sorry, my lord."
"Don't dare." Master Liu hurriedly waved his hand, not daring to accept this thank you.This is the person who dared to hold hands with the Prince Regent directly, and was thanked so solemnly by the other party, Mr. Liu was afraid that he would have a life to listen to, but not a life to enjoy it.
The Prince Regent's smile behind his back is already dangerous!
The troupe that Qi Yifei wanted had already set up a stage in the small courtyard.Well, no kidding, I'm really ready to sing.I invited the most popular Xiangyun troupe at the moment. You can sing Nanxi opera in Wu Nong's soft language, and there are also more vulgar and elegant dramas. The troupe owner's surname is Sun. He brought up his own daughter.
Team Leader Sun knew Qi Yifei. To be precise, there was no well-known playboy in Beijing or a young man in Jinling that he didn't know.On the contrary, it was Qi Yifei who heard the crime behind him, which made him a little unfamiliar, but he would always go forward and kneel down to pay his respects, saying that he would not make a big mistake.
After paying his respects with his disciples and grandchildren, Team Leader Sun was a little undecided, wondering if he should talk more and ask a few more questions.
"What's wrong?" Qi Yifei took the initiative to talk to solve problems.
"Master, please order a play." When Jin Yiwei asked Xiangyun troupe to come to prison, he didn't say what he wanted to do, and the whole troupe was scared all day long, thinking that they must die here today.The limp Xiaosheng cried and fainted again and again, and cried and fainted again and again, back and forth several times, and his voice is still hoarse.
When they arrived, it was finally clear that they were not used for interrogation, but invited to perform for the dead.
After listening to Team Leader Sun, he became even more terrified, because this is not like human words at all.It is unheard of to have such a demand for a theater troupe.Did you find the wrong person?The great monk of Baoen Temple is obviously more suitable to undertake this business than them.Or have a grudge against the dead?In front of the coffin, there is a big show with gongs and drums?Don't be afraid of harming Yinde!No, this is the lack of virtue!
Leader Sun really didn't know what to sing, how to sing, and how long to sing.
Jin Yiwei himself couldn't explain clearly, so he could only wave out the Xiuchun Knife, and he didn't need to say anything, just sing and finish.Team leader Sun could only put up an airs and wait for time, and finally waited for King Qi Xiaojun, who seemed to be able to call the shots.
"Do you know who's lying inside?" Qi Yifei didn't explain directly, but just raised his hand and pointed to Team Leader Sun.
"Small stupid." Leader Sun lowered his head almost to the ground, not because he was really stupid, but because he didn't dare to ask at all.All over the world, except for the Regent, there is no one who is not afraid of Jin Yiwei.
"Your grandfather."
After hearing about Zhang Zhen, Team Leader Sun didn't have so many strange and doubts, and he didn't feel that asking the troupe to perform for the coffin was an act of enmity, because it was indeed something Zhang Zhen could do.
It's just so righteous and absurd.
Qi Yifei has never liked to listen to opera, no matter how trendy it is, it will give him an inexplicable feeling of passing away.This is quite strange. After recovering his memory, he suddenly realized that he is just an old man. In his impression, this is all intangible cultural heritage.
But Zhang Zhen, as a qualified ancient dandy, just likes these ages.Holding actors, smashing money, and doing a lot of stupid things.One time, she confusedly provoked a famous actress in the capital, crying and shouting that Feiqing would not marry, which frightened Zhang Zhen, and she didn't dare to spend another penny on anyone for two months.
Zhang Zhen just wanted to listen to the drama, and didn't want to develop a relationship.
But also because of this misunderstanding, Zhang Zhen's marriage was full of twists and turns, and finally settled on the second lady of the Shangshu family.She doesn't dislike his reputation, because she prefers to believe her eyes.
After waiting for a while, Team Leader Sun realized that it was not Zhang Zhen who invited someone, but Zhang Zhen.
"My heavenly grandfather, why are you so jealous of talents!" The class leader confirmed that Zhang Zhen died, and that was really sad.It is no exaggeration, after all, Zhang Zhen is the big sponsor of their troupe.
In the first half of the year, the Zhang family happily sent people a deposit, saying that they would invite them to sing for three days and three nights on the day of Young Master Zhang's wedding. She tailors a new play that she likes.
It's a pity that such a thing happened before the order receipt from the second lady's house.
Zhang Zhen never went to the garden to listen to the opera again, nor did she ask for the theater troupe deposit he had prepared for Second Miss.
"The young ones must sing with all their heart, but they don't take any money." Leader Sun has been in the drama circle all year round, and when he speaks normally, there is always such a sense of singing and fighting.But a heart is real, it's hard for others to tell, but he can't be sorry for Master Zhang's deposit.
"How much can I have as a deposit? This money is absolutely indispensable to you, not only that, but it will be doubled after singing well." Qi Yifei didn't expect Zhang Zhen to get such a good relationship, and his heart was so hot that he couldn't let good people suffer. .
Zhang Zhen's side was already happy, and she was about to laugh like a flower: [My son is popular, don't you need to talk about it?He is also the old boy who remembers me, Ah Fei, don't lose him.I'll tell you where I hid my private money. ] "Sing it for you, Mr. Zhang. He can sing whatever he likes to listen to. He doesn't care about the form, but he wants to be lively."
Zhang Zhen was so excited that she flew over the eaves and walls, and performed a top flip for Qi Xiaojun Wang Lidi. After five and a half weeks, she turned around. The degree of difficulty was immeasurable. ] "By the way, keep your voice down as much as possible, and don't disturb the adults in front of you at work." Qi Yifei added to Team Leader Sun.Just let Zhang Zhen hear it.
"No need." Wen Zui finally found a chance to interject, and said arbitrarily, "It doesn't matter."
"How can this not affect it?" Qi Yifei was surprised, looked at the distance between the side hall and the front, it was almost none, and there was no sound insulation technology in ancient times, one end was solving the case and the other was singing, the picture must be eye-catching.
"It doesn't affect it, it doesn't affect it!" Jin Yiwei hurriedly shook his head in unison, as if he had never been dog-legged, and he imagined his grandson even more than Squad Leader Sun.
Qi Yifei: "...All right."
Then, he opened his voice and sang for Zhang Zhenqing.
Accompanied by "Dongfeng is intoxicated with yellow vine wine, the past is like smoke and cannot be traced", Qi Yifei took Wen Zui's hand, walked to the altar, and solemnly put three sticks of incense on Zhang Zhen's tablet.In the curling clouds and mist, only Wen Zui's narrow, long and spirited eyes are left.
Zhang Zhen was applauding the opera singer, but what she sighed was an inappropriate sentence: [Returning the old-fashioned way, take pity on the person in front of you, the person in front of you! 】When he saw the word "human", Qi Yifei happened to look up again and looked at Wen Zui. In the absurdity of singing and sighing three times, they could only see each other, and only wanted to see each other.
The hands that were held together seemed to be on fire in the ambiguous air, but no one wanted to let go.
In the end, how Qi Yifei rearranged his clothes, stepped into the imperial prison, and saw Zhang Ji who was in a mess and looked like a madman, Qi Yifei himself couldn't remember much.
Even the not-so-pleasant smell of blood in the prison couldn't make Qi Yifei forget the glance that Wen Zui looked at him amidst the fireworks.
Soul-stirring, not like ordinary people.
Qi Yifei finally separated from Wen Zui, and he was led into a private room by Mr. Liu.There was only a table and two chairs in the room, Mr. Zhang Jizhang was tied to the plain and simple chair; the one that looked a little cleaner was reserved for Qi Yifei.
No matter how Mr. Zhang is, at least his love for children is true.He didn't need to show anyone the heartbreaking pain of the sudden loss of a child, he had already interpreted it vividly with his own despondency.After hearing the news of Zhang Zhen's suicide, Zhang Ji turned gray all night, more helpless than despair.
Suddenly seeing Qi Yifei coming in, Zhang Ji didn't even recognize him, and after a while he focused his eyes and called Qi Yifei the right title: "His Royal Highness."
"Master Zhang." Qi Yifei and Zhang Ji have always been like this, maintaining a more polite manner than strangers, together for the sake of Zhang Zhen, they restrained themselves and endured each other.
Qi Yifei didn't sit on the chair prepared for him because he asked Zhang Zhen to sit on it.
Zhang Zhenming knew that his father was here, so he didn't have the courage to come and visit yesterday.Today, with Qi Yifei as his company to strengthen his courage, he moved in a little bit.He was never so afraid of his father when he was so angry with the teacher in the study when he was a child.
He timidly called out: 【Father. 】
***
Wen Zui, Liu Xishi and the others were waiting outside the door of the single room, separated by a wooden door, and couldn't quite hear what was being said inside, but if Qi Yifei was in danger, they would be able to rush in immediately if they shouted.
After sending off Qi Yifei, Wen Zui no longer had a smile on his face, and the feeling that the contours of the whole person were softened disappeared completely.He didn't speak, just stood at the door, even if he couldn't see, he was still waiting for Qi Yifei persistently.
While waiting, Wen Zui listened to some reports by the way, something he would never let Qi Yifei hear.
"The coffins of sinners Wen Luo, Wen Gang, Wen Fu and others have all been reopened, and the bodies have been confirmed to be correct. Their relatives have not changed."
"The Second Highness is still insane, the Fifth Highness is still in Shenji Camp, and the Sixth Highness is bedridden with a long illness..."
"The son of the humble prince, the son of the respected prince..."
All those who may have ambitions, even if they are dead, are still under Wen Gui's control, not relaxing for a moment.Therefore, even if Zhang Ji doesn't say anything, it will only be a matter of time before Jin Yiwei finds out who is behind the scenes.
It's just that the sooner they are caught, the less casualties will be.
After Jin Yiwei finished all his reports, he waited for a while, and then the door of the single room was opened from the inside.What was left to everyone was Zhang Ji who cried bitterly without knowing why, while Qi Yifei was still the good young man who did not suffer from troubled times.
Mr. Liu Xishi personally presided over Zhang Ji. He knew how difficult Zhang Ji was to deal with. He really didn't expect Qi Yifei to succeed.Therefore, he has a deeper estimate of Qi Yifei's ability.I couldn't help but feel a chill down my back. This Qi Xiaojun King might be the one who was misled by all of them. Just treating him like this, he can't be really a kind person who doesn't know the world.
"A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Qi Yifei stepped forward, not hiding anything from Wen Zui.
"The good news is that you asked?" Wen Zui didn't follow the routine at all. Seeing Qi Yifei's appearance, he knew that he would probably make all Jin Yiwei who were helpless against Zhang Ji feel ashamed.
A true master of torture is always attacking the heart.
"Yes." Qi Yifei nodded.In fact, it is very simple to ask this question, as long as you tell Zhang Ji the truth, it is not impossible for Wen Zui, Master Liu and others to do this, but Zhang Ji will not believe what they say.Qi Yifei is Zhang Zhen's friend, so it's different, especially when Zhang Zhen is also there.
"But the bad news is that what Zhang Ji knew was probably false information." Qi Yifei sighed, a little frustrated.Zhang Ji is really speechless, what kind of life is this selling?
"How?" Wen Zui raised his eyebrows.
"He told me that it was the third prince Wen Gang who ordered him to do this." The third prince was the one that Fu Li read as a companion. His mother and concubine were rare and prominent among the concubines who were born as civilians.
This is because Daqi's rules for selecting concubines are to adopt more folks and focus on the poor.
From the root cause, as much as possible to prevent the harem from interfering in politics.The natal families of the princes are basically nobles who were conferred only after one person attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven.
This also makes the third prince so different. From the perspective of his family, the third prince is like a RMB player. While others are still working hard in Xinshou Village, he has already fled to the sky and escaped. , omnipotent.But success and Xiao He defeated Xiao He, the third prince never expected that his final defeat would also be defeated by his proud natal family.
This hundred-year-old clan has been rotten from the root, before the big event can be accomplished, but for the benefit of the future, it has strangled you to the death, dragging down the third prince.
In the forced duel with the eldest prince, the third prince was pierced by thousands of arrows after being accused of the crime.
"Do you think it's strange? The third prince is a dead man, how can he give an order?" Qi Yifei didn't have any good ideas, so he could only ask Wenzuo for details, "Or is he not dead?"
"He's dead." Wen Zui just confirmed that it was Wen Gang lying in Wen Gang's coffin, not an impostor, he had no more operas, and his natal family had already collapsed.
The thread just ended.
But Qi Yifei didn't seem to be discouraged at all, because he had already thought about this problem inside, and they could start from other aspects.It's like... the death of the second lady of the Shangshu family.
At that time, the situation in Beijing was chaotic, which made it easy for people behind the scenes to fish in troubled waters, but it also made it easier for Qi Yifei and others to re-examine the cocoon afterwards, rule out all kinds of impossibilities, and find the only remaining possibility.
"I'll have someone investigate the case case for you." They happened to be in prison.
"No need." Qi Yifei has already learned more comprehensive news from Zhang Zhen. Zhang Zhen has worked so hard to track down the death of his fiancée, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. "I already know."
Wen Zui thought it was Zhang Ji who told Qi Yifei: "Then who do you suspect?"
"Second Miss threw herself into the river, and it happened almost in spring, on a night of watching lanterns. On the Huaiqin River, under the watchful eyes of everyone, she was resting on the second floor of the boat by herself, but suddenly she fell headlong into the rushing water, and she was no longer alive." Qi Yifei briefly introduced the situation at that time.
Wen Zui nodded: "The version I heard is almost the same, except..."
Except that the second lady shouted before she died, I don't want to marry him.
Naturally, no one dared to say this to Qi Yifei.
"It's just rumors, it's not credible." Qi Yifei shook his head and waved his hands, "I still know a little bit about what the rumors are like."
When Qi Yifei was just born, everyone was just saying that the day he and his elder sister were born coincided with the border victory; For many days, the cloudy rain stopped suddenly; and later, even the blessings of the heavens, the auspicious rainbow, and the golden light that Qi Yifei felt in his arms when his mother was pregnant, were all pulled out.
The more he talked, the more he talked, if Qi Yifei hadn't been the person involved, he would have almost believed that there could be such a miraculous person in the world.
"You're right." Wen Zui couldn't help laughing. He himself was like this. When his mother gave birth to him, he died of dystocia, but in the end it turned into wind and rain, ghosts crying and wolves howling. All the weather was abnormal, "this The words may indeed be conjectured by passers-by.”
At that time, the boat was so far away from the shore, if it was close, it would be impossible to save the second miss.How could someone hear what she said before she died?
"and then?"
"Then, let's talk on the way."
Qi Yifei left the imperial prison with Wen Zuo, and when he got into the car, he could still hear Leader Sun's beautiful daughter, babbling and drinking softly inside.Zhang Zhen watched Qi Yifei leave, and at the end she still didn't forget to say: [Don't force yourself too much, it doesn't matter if you can't find the murderer.I'm not a ghost, it doesn't matter if I have unfulfilled wishes or not. 】Qi Yifei nodded to Zhang Zhen without any trace, and he will do what he can.Even if he can't, he will find someone who can!
After getting into the car, Wengui pretended to be smooth, and never let go of Qi Yifei's hand. In fact, he was carefully observing Qi Yifei's expression all the time. Seeing that he was not only not angry, but also very happy, he put his heart back in stomach.
Wen Zui had nothing to say and asked, "Where are we going?"
"Would you like to eat hot pot upstairs in Yuejiang Tower?" Qi Yifei gave a particularly surprising answer.
"En?" Hearing the crime, he was stunned for a moment, didn't he just say that he wanted to investigate the case?
Qi Yifei pointed to the big sun outside the curtain of the car: "You have the energy to work when you are full. Let's chat while eating. The only question is, can you eat spicy food?"
Qi Yifei has a cook and grandmother from Sichuan, who has been fond of spicy food since he was a child.
"Coincidentally, me too." To be precise, Wen Zui can eat anything, as long as he can fill his stomach, he has eaten everything.He didn't care about what he put into his mouth, "It's just that I'm not very good at eating spicy food, so I'm going to make you laugh."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we are the whole mandarin duck pot."
***
Yuejiang Tower, which means Yuejiang Range Rover, is the tallest building in Yongji.The outer four floors, the dark three floors, the high eaves and teeth, and the Dange dialing the clouds. It was originally built as a royal garden. Later, for some reason, it was ordered to stop work by the Taizu. It’s better to put it there, it’s better to resume work, use it to open up, have fun with the people, and make some money.
Opening gardens to the common people is a tradition that existed in previous dynasties.Entry and exit are free, but tea and snacks have to be paid out of pocket.
Later, this Yuejiang Building developed a one-stop catering service, and inexplicably became the No. 1 building of Yongji.
Now most people go, not to see the scenery, but to eat.
After Yuejianglou earned a large amount of income, not only was it responsible for its own profit and loss, but it could also contribute a sum of money to the emperor's private treasury every year, so it gained grace and expanded again and again.Originally, the original Yuejiang Tower was built on the hillside, overlooking the Huai and Qin Dynasties. Part of the current Yuejiang Tower has stood facing the street, which is the part that Qi Yifei passed by when he just returned to Beijing.
When Qi Yifei and Wen Zui arrived, the steaming ceramic pot bottom had already been prepared, and it was placed on the tall building with the best view, with the windows open and a slanted railing outside where people could sit and enjoy the view.
As soon as I entered the room, there was a burst of spicy fragrance, which made people's tongues salivate and their index fingers twitched.
But what Qi Yifei paid more attention to was the scenery of Huai Qin outside. He walked to the fence and asked Wen Zui: "You said, how can you be sure who fell from the boat at that time at such a long distance?" It's dark, as long as you find someone who is about the same size as the second lady, put on the clothes of the second lady, jump off, and that's it.
The method of counterfeiting couldn't be simpler.
First, the second lady was drowned in the water, and thrown into the river in advance, and then pretended to be thrown into the river.The murderer himself is good at swimming, so he can swim to other places. When someone finds him, the only one who catches him is the dead Second Miss.
The only problem is that the maid saw it with her own eyes before the second lady went upstairs to the boat.Later, the second lady dismissed everyone and stayed alone on the second floor, while the maid stood guard at the stairs, and never let anyone go up to disturb her.
"Ambush in advance?" Qi Yifei proposed an idea. Someone already knew about the second lady's itinerary and hid on the second floor in advance.
"The boats don't belong to the second lady's house. She lent her a handkerchief. And she suddenly got up and proposed to go swimming in the river and put the lanterns on." Wen Zui still asked someone to bring the case file, and he himself needed to be careful. Take a look at the beginning and end.
All signs indicated that this could only be an accident, or that the second lady chose to commit suicide.
Even if it is now clearly known that it was actually a homicide, it is still difficult to find evidence to restore it.
Qi Yifei thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out, so he could only sit down with Wen Zui, and started to eat hot pot, hoping that the hot pot's spicy taste would be able to understand everything and help them find their way of thinking again——
Mutton, hairy tripe, oily bean curd, and the secret sesame sauce dipping sauce, after one bite, you will feel, go to the gods, I want to stay in the world!
The spicy pot tripe is so delicious that it will fly, and it will be a delicacy if you simply rinse it up and down.
——Whether the train of thought came to pass in the end, it's hard to say, but Qi Yifei's eyes were hazy from being hot, that's for sure.
Well, although King Qi Xiaojun likes spicy food, he is actually not very good at spicy food, just like a person who doesn't hold a lot of alcohol, but still likes to drink.
Every time Qi Yifei ate spicy food, he would cry.Not squeamish crying, but physiological running water.
But Qi Yifei just likes the feeling of being refreshed after eating.He also knows that when he eats, he looks a little indecent, so those who can see him eating hot pot are really friendly.If it wasn't for his friends, he could only choose to silence him.
After hearing the crime, he said very seriously: "I can help you silence it."
Qi Yifei laughed out loud, smiling, not knowing whether Wen Zui was joking or telling the truth.The seventh prince he knew must be joking with him when he heard about the crime; but the regent he didn't know might be telling the truth when he heard about the crime, he was so cruel and unreasonable.
And Wen Zui, who said he was not very good at eating spicy food, ate without changing his face, taking one bite after another. He really didn't have too many requirements for food.As long as he can eat and drink, that's fine. He still has time to spare his hands and cook meat for Qi Yifei.
Watching Qi Yifei eat is also a very happy thing for Wen Zui. There is no reason, but to see Qi Yifei still has such a good appetite, and he is really happy from the bottom of his heart.
After eating, Qi Yifei was not surprised, his lips were red from the heat, he was sweating all over, and his clothes were miraculously disheveled.It can be said that the food is very heroic, and the chaos has no image.
But the military division of the Northwest Army who chased after him from the border and was in charge of sending Qi Yifei his sister's family letter...
But his eyes couldn't help but linger on Wen Zui and Qi Yifei.
With such blurry eyes, flushed cheeks, and leaning your head on other people's body, do you have no bones? !What are you doing humming? !
Of course, digestion.
Hot pot is such a miraculous ingredient that it is always easy to overeat and bloat, and Qi Yifei, who is uncomfortable, doesn't want to think about it at all.Of course, there is also a little bit that wants to take the opportunity to have all-round skin-to-skin contact so as to increase lifespan faster.Facts have proved that the larger the contact area, the life span seems to increase a little faster.
Wen Zui naturally enjoyed the beautiful woman's embrace, and patiently rubbed Qi Yifei's belly clockwise.
Those who serve are more dedicated than taking care of themselves.
The military division who came to deliver the letter had the double surname of Youqin, and his single name was a division.There was a luthier, those who didn't know it thought it was a famous actress and oiran somewhere in the south of the Yangtze River.But he is indeed a man with a height of eight feet and a thin body like paper. Despite the wind and sun, he still looks like a little boy.The friendship with Qi Yifei was only established in the last two years, and it is not friendship more, but worrying like an old lady.
From his mistress, Qi Yiyi's entrustment.
Well, Princess Qi's original words are: Please take care of me, please take care of my younger brother, don't let him kill himself.
Military division Youqin departed from the border many days later than Qi Yifei, but he traveled day and night, and the days of entering Beijing were not much different from Qi Yifei.Before entering the city, he was already kneeling down for Qi Yifei's feat in the past few days. He thought that he was only a few days late, and nothing major would happen.In the end, he still underestimated Qi Yifei's ability to kill.
Army Master Youqin couldn't wait for a moment, so he went directly to Yuejiang Tower.He was really worried that Qi Yifei's outrageous words would lead to his death.Others don't understand sins, but he knows it all too well.
Because his family's young general is the one who partnered with Wen Zui and boldly invested in his military!
In the end, I opened the door and took a look... After a lot of patience, Army Master Youqin didn't blurt out, you, you two, in broad daylight, unseemly, what were you doing in the house just now? ! ! !
