Chapter 128: Prince: Brother Quan Fu, what are you and the Princess doing? !
At the back of the mountain behind Fa'an Temple is a steep cliff.
Zeng Anmin just took a quick glance and walked down the mountain without paying any attention.
He was wearing a long green robe today, and his sharp edge was hidden among the green mountains.
He walked slowly and steadily.
As he walked, his eyes flickered with thought.
Concubine Xi.
Mr. Huang.
Let him do it.
These three names gradually connected into a line in Zeng Anmin's mind.
He could feel that the cases that had happened in recent days must have a great deal to do with Concubine Xi.
"But what is Concubine Xi's purpose in creating these cases one after another?"
There was a gleam in Zeng Anmin's eyes.
At this time, he had already reached the foot of the mountain.
Assuming that Concubine Xi was the mastermind behind all these cases, what was her purpose in committing so many crimes?
First of all, it can be seen from the Lou Tong poisoning case.
She colluded with the Eastern Cult and hid the Green-bellied Snake in the capital.
This also proves that she has colluded with the demon clan.
Ren Weizhi was her helper in this.
"So what does she want?"
Zeng Anmin recalled his father's words in his mind.
"Empress Xi is from a noble family. If it's just for money..."
Zeng Anmin recalled that Lou Yingqi had suffered such a disaster because he had evidence of the Ministry of Revenue's Ren Weizhi, Prince Qi, and Concubine Xi embezzling disaster relief funds...
If the person behind the scenes is Concubine Xi, then this reason is too far-fetched.
After all this time, so many lives were lost, just to embezzle money?
hehe.
Zeng Anmin shook his head, disrupting the idea in his mind.
He looked at the green horse at the foot of the mountain and turned over with an expressionless face.
"drive!"
With a soft shout from him, the horse raised its front hooves and headed towards the road.
Right now, we need to learn more about Concubine Xi.
And there is Mr. Huang.
There was a gleam of brilliance in Zeng Anmin's eyes.
As for where to get the most direct understanding of Concubine Xi...
His eyes turned towards the direction of the palace.
Go find the fat guy?
Zeng Anmin rode on the horse and gently touched his chin.
As soon as this idea came up, he rejected it.
No, because the fat boy in the Imperial College had his identity exposed by Ren Xueliang.
Now the little fat girl has become a conspicuous figure in the palace.
It would definitely not be a good idea to go look for him at this time.
Zeng Anmin thought for a while.
A peerless and graceful figure slowly emerged in his mind.
Are you going to look for the eldest princess?
It’s not impossible…
Zeng Anmin raised his brows slightly and touched the jade pendant around his waist.
There was already a crack on the jade pendant.
I should be the focus of the eldest princess's attention now, and also the biggest supporter my father can unite with in the court at this time.
It can be said that the relationship between the two families has become an extremely reliable alliance since the last time Zeng Anmin met at Liu Mansion.
"It's just right. It also gives the princess a chance to care about her subordinates."
Zeng Anmin took off the jade pendant from his waist and put it in his arms.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and headed straight towards the palace.
…………
Yongning Palace in the imperial city.
The eldest princess held a secret letter in her hand.
There are many lines of small words written on it.
She looked at the secret letter in her hand calmly, and a satisfied smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth:
"Investigation of the Dragon Map...Student Case...Qi Xianlin...Prince Jiang's Rebellion Case."
"Prince Qi fell...Lou Yingqi's son was poisoned..."
"Zeng Liangjiang... at sixteen... after entering the Imperial College, he gained a profound understanding of the two principles of 'calligraphy' and 'archery'. Once he reaches the sixth rank of Confucianism and Taoism, he will be able to directly condense his Dharma form and break through to the fifth rank..."
"A genius of Confucianism and Taoism."
She looked at the secret letter gently, and murmured slowly to herself:
"Both father and son are extraordinary."
"Haha, that's good too... I can use it for my own benefit."
After saying that, she gently placed the secret letter in the brazier beside her and watched it slowly turn into ashes.
Then, the eldest princess slowly stood up.
Showing off her extremely proud figure.
"pendulum clock."
She uttered two words slowly.
The palace maids beside them all responded "yes" with great respect.
The eldest princess walked out of the house and into the yard.
Soon, the sound of "ding ding" bells rang out in the courtyard.
…………
Although Xiaoqingma is not a good horse.
But it is enough in Beijing.
It didn't take long for Zeng Anmin to find his way to the gate of the imperial city.
The imperial city serves as the last line of defense in the capital.
The nature of cultivation is extremely solid.
After Zeng Anmin dismounted, he looked at the dozens of feet high wall in front of him and the well-trained patrol guards.
The memory of participating in the imperial examination in the Eastern Palace flashed through his mind.
The scene of Prince Qing coming to kill.
I don’t know how that guy got in.
"please."
Zeng Anmin looked at the extremely respectful guard who came before him and straightened his back unconsciously.
"That's right, I belong to the eldest princess now."
"Thank you." Zeng Anmin took the guard inspection token with a smile and put it back into the preparation space.
After meeting the eldest princess at Liu Mansion, the eldest princess gave him two things in total.
It was also the jade pendant around his waist that saved his life.
The other thing was the token he had just put into his arms.
You can enter and leave the palace freely at any time and go to the eldest princess's Yong'an Palace.
Follow the guards all the way to the palace.
Zeng Anmin walked around several times.
If he didn't have a good memory, he would probably have been confused by the way in the palace.
big.
Too big.
The spaciousness of the imperial palace is even comparable to that of the county seat of Liangjiang County.
"arrive."
After informing Zeng Anmin, the garrison commander retreated along the same route.
Zeng Anmin looked at the three big characters on the palace in front of him.
Take a deep breath slowly.
"If you'd like, please tell me that Zeng Anmin wants to see you."
Zeng Anmin reached into his arms, took out a token and handed it to the eunuch guarding the gate.
The eunuch had a cold expression on his face.
But after seeing Zeng Anmin's token, he immediately bowed with an extremely respectful expression: "Sir, please wait a moment. I will be back soon."
The eunuch's voice was quite shrill.
But it didn't feel extremely awkward.
Not much different from a normal person.
Zeng Anmin waited at the door for about a quarter of an hour.
Then the eunuch came back and respectfully handed over the token with both hands: "The princess invites you."
"Thank you, sir."
Zeng Anmin took the token with a smile and followed the eunuch into Yongning Palace.
It went around several times.
This Yongning Palace is not small.
No worse than his father's Shangshu rank.
Entering the yard, there are not only rockery, but also green water.
The peach trees are in full bloom and look very beautiful.
“Ding ding ding~”
The sound of the chimes is very pleasant.
When Zeng Anmin heard this voice, he knew that he was about to meet the real person.
He adjusted his expression.
"Your Highness, the person has been brought here."
The young eunuch stood respectfully beside Zeng Anmin.
The sound of the chimes paused slightly.
The eldest princess's hand, which was striking the chimes, slowed down slightly, then raised it gently.
"yes."
The eunuch received the order and walked respectfully to the back.
At this time, there were only a few respectful palace maids left in the courtyard.
There is also Zeng Anmin.
And the eldest princess sitting in front of the chimes.
Zeng Anmin took a sneak peek.
Two eyes.
Three Eyes...
The eldest princess's back is extremely narrow, but what is strange is her exciting curve.
The seductive curve extends from both sides of the back to the hips.
Although it’s not the first time I’ve seen it, every time I see it I can’t help but want to touch it.
"Ahem, nice to meet the Princess."
Zeng Anmin put aside all distracting thoughts in his mind and bowed to the eldest princess's back in a calm voice.
"What is it?"
The eldest princess lost interest in striking the chimes and placed the two chimes in her hands on the jade plate, then slowly turned around.
Revealing that extremely charming face.
There was a hint of calmness in his eyes as he looked at Zeng Anmin.
"The clues about the picture..."
Zeng Anmin looked at the palace maids on both sides with extreme vigilance.
There was a serious look on his face.
See his expression.
The eldest princess raised her eyebrows slightly, and her soft red lips curved into an arc.
Then he nodded slightly.
The chin forms an arc in the air.
"yes."
The palace maids seemed to have received some kind of instructions and immediately bowed respectfully and retreated.
Afterwards, only Zeng Anmin and the eldest princess were left in the courtyard.
"Go ahead."
The eldest princess looked at Zeng Anmin, and a hint of snow-white appeared on her white swan neck.
Zeng Anmin was serious and earnest. He subconsciously took two steps towards the eldest princess.
There is no safe distance between me and the eldest princess anymore.
Only after getting closer did Zeng Anmin smell a fragrance.
It was an extremely refreshing fragrance.
"What brand of perfume are you using? It smells so burning."
Of course, Zeng Anmin only complained about this in his heart.
"Your Highness, I'm being watched."
Zeng Anmin looked at the eldest princess seriously and showed the jade pendant around his waist.
On top of the jade pendant.
A crack is clearly visible.
When the eldest princess's eyes came into contact with the cracks on the jade pendant, her brows suddenly frowned.
"What's going on?"
One could hear a harsh tone in her voice.
Although not obvious.
But Zeng Anmin could hear it.
The eldest princess seems to think highly of me?
Although he didn't have much contact with the eldest princess.
But last time at Liu Mansion, she always gave people the impression of being indifferent and elegant.
There is rarely any fluctuation in tone.
And this time...
"I don't know, I was assassinated, and luckily I had this thing to save my life at the critical moment."
Zeng Anmin said in a deep voice: "And I have seen the man who assassinated me."
The eldest princess's face had recovered at this time. Her eyes looked at Zeng Anmin calmly, quietly waiting for his voice.
Zeng Anmin took a deep breath, bowed to the princess and said:
"In the Huangque Temple on the back hill of Fa'an Temple, there's a lame man...that lame man is a master."
"Thankfully, this jade pendant saved my life. After I escaped the assassination attempt, I immediately went to investigate the Yellow Bird Temple. The clues I got seemed to be..."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Zeng Anmin's face.
I don’t know whether I should say it or not.
The eldest princess just nodded slightly: "Speak."
Zeng Anmin's expression turned serious: "It seems to be related to Concubine Xi."
This sentence is the key point.
Sure enough, after saying this, the eldest princess frowned.
I don't know what kind of emotions are hidden behind her calm eyes.
He looked at Zeng Anmin indifferently.
Zeng Anmin looked at him calmly.
After a long while, the princess said expressionlessly:
"You are hiding something from me."
"Why would someone set their sights on you?"
Zeng Anmin's heart moved slightly.
He could use Liu Xian as a chess piece to lure the eldest princess into the Liu Mansion.
He is definitely not a fool.
Therefore, it would be impossible to get away with not revealing the secret letters obtained during the search of Prince Qi's mansion.
He showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, then scratched his head and said:
"I really shouldn't have kept it a secret from Your Highness."
"During the case of the confiscation of Prince Qi's residence, I discovered that Prince Qi seemed to be connected to Ren Weizhi and someone behind the scenes..."
As soon as these words were spoken.
The corners of the princess' mouth curled up slightly, she looked at Zeng Anmin with a smile and said:
"So at that time, you and Nai Weng set your sights on me, right?"
Zeng Anmin scratched his head in embarrassment:
"I just didn't expect that the princess would serve the country and the people, and she is truly the embodiment of justice. But fortunately, she didn't come into conflict with His Highness."
"Oh."
The eldest princess chuckled and did not respond, but looked at Zeng Anmin.
She knew that in order to avoid being targeted by Zeng Shilin, she took the initiative to seek an alliance with Zeng Anmin...which was ultimately an extremely passive choice.
Her purpose was to find the Xihuangtu and she did not want to get involved in the struggle in the court.
Naturally, he didn't want to confront Zeng Shilin.
Zeng Anmin said calmly, "So I suspect that Concubine Xi might also have set her sights on the Xihuang Diagram."
After saying this, Zeng Anmin lowered his head.
You don't need to look to know the expression on the eldest princess' face at this moment.
Definitely thinking.
But it doesn't matter. For the sake of the Xihuangtu, the eldest princess has been pretending to be nice to King Qi and Ren Wei for so many years.
He even sacrificed the years of hard work of the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce.
It doesn’t matter whether Concubine Xi has set her eyes on him or not.
As long as this news is told to the eldest princess, she will naturally put Concubine Xi first.
"Empress Xi..."
The eldest princess whispered softly.
She shook her head first, then looked at Zeng Anmin and asked:
"How are you going to deal with this?"
Zeng Anmin said with a serious expression and a solemn voice:
"I hope Your Highness can tell me something about Concubine Xi, which will help in investigating the case."
The eldest princess narrowed her eyes.
She knew that Zeng Anmin might be taking advantage of her.
Zeng Anmin lowered his head and did not raise it.
He also knew that the eldest princess might feel that he was taking advantage of her.
But... she wouldn't gamble.
Sure enough, after a long time, the eldest princess' voice slowly rang out, and she said calmly:
"You can go back now. I will send someone to your house to get the clues about Concubine Xi."
"Thank you, Your Highness. I will do my best to find the Xihuang Diagram for the princess!"
Zeng Anmin breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to the eldest princess, and was about to leave.
"Imperial aunt?"
A familiar voice sounded, and after seeing Zeng Anmin, it became surprised:
"Brother Quan Fu...what are you doing..."
The chubby prince stood at the gate of Yong'an Palace, looking at Zeng Anmin saluting the eldest princess with an expression of disbelief.
Those round eyes revealed the sorrow of being betrayed.
"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
When Zeng Anmin saw the little fat boy, he wanted to say hello, but then he remembered that the eldest princess was with him.
You really can't get too close to it.
He bowed to the chubby prince.
