Is Chapter 169 good?
Chen Yu found the nearest teahouse on Yongning Street and waited for more than two hours.
Clang——
Xiao Chuan entered the box and closed the door, "Finally caught him."
Shen Yu poured him tea, "So long."
"That damn Marquis Xuanping is so cunning." Xiao Chuan unloaded the knife and placed it on the table. He tilted his head back and drank a cup of tea. Still feeling thirsty, he poured himself another cup.
"Marquis Xuanping left first. I waited for two hours. If I hadn't been patient, he would have gotten away."
"Where are the people?" Chen Yu asked.
"I took them back to the military headquarters." Xiao Chuan said, "I deliberately didn't strike at the door, but quietly followed them all the way. I only struck when they were about to kill them. Guess what happened?"
Xiao Chuan said excitedly, "The old man confessed before he even returned to the military headquarters. Today, Marquis Xuanping asked him to go to the Ministry of Justice to put pressure on Gui Xiong and threaten him with the lives of those people on the mountain. Fortunately, you had anticipated this and moved all the people away. Otherwise, with so many lives on his shoulders, Gui Xiong might have turned against us."
Shen Yu pondered for a moment, "Marquis Xuanping can't escape."
Xiao Chuan said: "He is involved in the grain draft, so it should be combined with the other cases. I believe that the Ministry of Justice will come to our Wucheng Bingmasi to investigate soon."
Chen Yu looked at the sky and stood up. "Thank you for today. If there's anything I can help you with in the future, please let me know."
After leaving the teahouse, Chen Yu returned to the palace.
After the move was completed, Chen Yu's things had been moved into Qingpu Residence, and their bedrooms were only separated by a wall.
Hearing that Xie Tingzhou was in the study, Shen Yu went directly to find him.
"Xiao Chuan has detained the old man at the Wucheng Bingma Division." Chen Yu said as she entered the room, "He is willing to identify the Marquis of Xuanping."
Xie Tingzhou looked at her.
Chen Yu didn't notice his look and said, "Marquis Xuanping is the prince's uncle, so this matter cannot be separated from the prince."
Xie Tingzhou put down the book in his hand and asked, "Do you regret saving the prince?"
"No regrets." Chen Yu said, "He deserves the punishment for what he did. If justice is not served, I don't mind killing him myself to avenge my father."
Xie Tingzhou said: "We have a direction, but we lack evidence. The evidence in the grain draft can only point to Marquis Xuanping. There is no concrete evidence to prove that the crown prince is the mastermind behind this. How could Emperor Tongxu easily touch the crown prince?"
Chen Yu's eyes were fixed on one place, "You mean, if Xuanping Hou takes all the blame himself, then he can't do anything.
son. "
Xie Tingzhou nodded, "Besides, everything is just our inference now. Even if we know that there is something wrong with Marquis Xuanping, we have to wait until the Ministry of Justice reviews it before we can draw a conclusion."
He walked to Chen Yu and stopped, pressing two fingers on her brow and rubbing it.
"Don't think about it. There are only two possible outcomes. If Marquis Xuanping points out the prince, the prince will be executed. If Marquis Xuanping doesn't point out the prince, you will execute him yourself."
Chen Yu suddenly understood.
With the direction, the people behind will die no matter what.
Xie Tingzhou said: "Now, let's talk about other things."
"What?" Chen Yu raised her head.
There was a thick pile of books on the desk. Xie Tingzhou took down the top one, glanced at the cover and asked, "Have you read Three Character Classic?"
"Of course I have, what's the matter?"
Xie Tingzhou took down another book, "Where is the Book of Shangshu?"
Chen Yu looked puzzled, "You've seen part of it, right? What's wrong?"
Xie Tingzhou waved for her to come over, pulled her into his arms from behind, and spread the book in front of her.
"Then tell me, does it look good?"
The explicit pictures in the book appeared in her eyes. Shen Yu froze and stared at the pictures for a long time without remembering how to react.
Xie Tingzhou leaned close to her ear, turned another page, and asked softly, "Hmm? Does it look good?"
Shen Yu swallowed and tried to pull the book out of his hand, "It's, it's okay."
"It's OK." Xie Tingzhou said slowly, "Have you seen anything better?"
Chen Yu: “No.”
A few months ago, Pei Chunli climbed over the wall to find her and threw her a bag of "good stuff". Chen Yu had no place to hide it, so she simply mixed it up on the bookshelf in the study. As a result, after a long time, she forgot about it.
She was moving today and she really didn't expect it to be dug up.
"It was given to me by Pei Chunli. I put it in the study and forgot about it."
Xie Tingzhou put his arm around her waist and said, "Didn't you say you've seen it?"
Chen Yu explained: "What I read were the serious Three Character Classic and Book of History, not this kind of pornographic books! I will have someone return them to Pei Chunli tomorrow."
"No need to return it." Xie Tingzhou said, "Two books are missing."
"Hmm?" Shen Yu turned her head to look at him.
"Li Jifeng took two books." Xie Tingzhou said: "Do you know that Li Jifeng took out the Spring Palace from the bookshelf?
What's the reaction?
He held her waist and turned her around, looking at her and said, "He asked me if I had tried this one with you."
Chen Yu's face turned red in an instant.
Xie Tingzhou ran his fingers across her neck below her ear, leaned over and said, "Keep it, you'll eventually finish trying it."
…
After the beginning of summer, the daybreaks come earlier and earlier.
When the court was opened at 1 a.m., it was already bright.
Civil and military officials were waiting outside the Fengtian Palace, all of them were curious about the new noble of Shengjing under the eaves.
Chen Yu stood under the eaves of Fengtian Palace, looking at the civil and military officials outside the palace. For the first time, she felt that she was so close to the power center of Da Zhou.
The officials did not dare to speak loudly. Some of them said it was none of their business, while others whispered to each other.
Jiang Lianzhi looked at Chen Yu.
She was wearing a green dragon robe with brocade cloud shoulders. Unlike the wide sleeves of civil and military officials, her cuffs were neatly gathered, and the belt tied her waist beautifully. The sword at her waist was particularly dazzling in the morning light.
His understanding of her seemed to remain in the soft and tolerant memory of his previous life.
Jiang Lianzhi was in a trance for a moment.
Is this still the Ayu he knew? The one he had slept with for three years?
Suddenly, a small noise arose among the officials.
Jiang Lianzhi turned his head and saw Xie Tingzhou in a red official uniform, walking slowly towards him. When he arrived in front of the hall, he suddenly looked up and saw Chen Yu's position.
All officials knew that Shi Yu, the Du Yuhou appointed by His Majesty, had changed masters three times, and his previous master was the Prince of Beilin in front of them.
Everyone was quite curious as to whether Prince Beilin had successfully placed someone next to Emperor Tongxu, or whether Shi Yu had betrayed his master and defected.
Xie Tingzhou kept looking at her, but Shi Yu didn't react at all. She just glanced at her briefly when Xie Tingzhou looked at her for the first time and then looked away.
There was a great deal of indifference between his eyebrows, and that quick glance was extremely arrogant, with a hint of contempt.
All the officials saw this and exchanged glances tacitly.
Except Xie Tingzhou, no one knew why he gave that look.
The two of them slept on the same bed last night and nothing happened. Xie Tingzhou endured it all night, but when she got up, he couldn't help it. He hugged her and kissed her until her cheeks blushed, almost making her miss the time.
Xie Tingzhou withdrew his gaze, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He actually particularly liked her arrogant and frivolous look.
