Chapter 195

Zhou Min's undead?

Hearing this, Xu Qi'an, so far, the other party is willing to break with a weak woman for so long. In fact, it is also a kind of sincerity and style.

Yang Yingying fell to her knees again and kowtowed: "Yang Yingying, a woman from Yunzhou Jiaofang department, met and fell in love with Mr. Zhou a few years ago. She broke away from her humble status and had been waiting on Mr. Zhou all the time..."

everyone showed a tacit understanding of "so it is.".

It turns out that she's a seafood merchant. No wonder she's more knowledgeable than ordinary women and knows how to read documents and official seals. Xu Qian suddenly realized.

In this era, seafood merchants are a highly educated and cultural group among women. He is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, song and Fu.

Yang Yingying simply said a few words about her past with Zhou Min, and frankly said that she was a woman raised outside. Zhou Min would meet with her once in a while.

"Some time ago, Mr. Zhou suddenly came to find a woman and gave me something. He said that he might be in danger in the near future. If something really happened, he asked me to hide immediately. Then he tried to leave Yunzhou and give it to Mr. Yang, the governor of Qingzhou.

"It wasn't long before min Fu received the news of Mr. Zhou's death..." Yang Yingying's tears rolled down and broke into tears:

"Min Fu was so sad and afraid that she didn't dare to live any longer, so she hid in a sister's house and asked her to inquire about the news.

"After hiding for a while, the sister of Min Fu told me that Zhao Ye's caravan was going to Qingzhou in the near future, so I borrowed 20 Liang silver from her and bought a horse. With the caravan, I left Yunzhou..."

people will know what happened later.

Xu Qi'an looked on coldly and looked at Yang Yingying's Micro expression. This time when she spoke, her eyes were impartial, her voice was sad and full of emotion.

There's no element of fraud.

So he looked for clues from Yang Yingying's words -- Zhou Min didn't reveal his identity as a watchman until he died, even though he was a trusted friend of Guan Bao. This shows that Zhou Min is a qualified dark son.

He would be suspicious if he told his identity easily.

As for why he went to Qingzhou to find Ziyang Jushi instead of other neighboring states, Xu Qi'an's judgment is that Zhou Min doesn't believe anyone, but only believes this great scholar of Yunlu Academy.

First of all, compared with ordinary scholars, the great Confucians of Yunlu academy are more trustworthy because of their cultivation system. After all, rotten people can't walk away from the Confucian system.

The enemy of Ziyang academy is the right one, and the enemy of JuYang academy is the right one.

Zhang Xunfu frowned, "you suspect that Zhou Min was killed."

Yang Fu Jun nodded his head for me

"This..." governor Zhang pondered for a moment: "well, I promise you, you take out the last thing left by Zhou's experience."

Yang Yingying immediately kowtowed: "thank Lord."

Xu Qi'an can't help but look at it in a different light. Lao Zhang's scheming is OK. He is worthy of the officialdom. When he works with Wei Yuan, his heart is very dirty.

Yang Yingying straightened up, put her hand into her arms, took out half of the jade pendant, and offered it with both hands: "this is what Lord Zhou gave to the woman that night."

All eyes are focused on the jade pendant.

It's a half round jade pendant. The whole body is clear green. It should have been a round jade. It was cut in two by a sharp weapon.

Jiang Luzhong took the jade pendant and handed it to governor Zhang, who held it at his fingertips and rubbed it.

"It looks like a keepsake?" Jiang LV said in a low voice. When he finished, he looked at Xu Qi'an and asked for his opinions.

Governor Zhang also looked over.

Look what I do, I will investigate cases, but I'm not a diviner... You two silk did not hide the idea that I was a tool man... Xu Qi'an pondered: "go to Yunzhou first, guess what's the use."

Zhang Xun Fu put away the jade pendant and told the soldiers: "go on, go to Yunzhou."

Dig a pit to bury the body on the spot, take the surviving merchants and goods together, and the team continues to set out to Yunzhou along the official road.

...

it's sunny and warm. On this rare morning, when Huaiqing's sword practice ended, he was about to call the palace maids to prepare hot water. When he turned around, two palace maids were sitting in the pavilion playing chess.

Huaiqing frowned, but not dissatisfied with the palace maids playing chess, but they did not understand chess at all.

She did not make a sound, silent into the pavilion, watching the two maids play chess.

The pretty maids forget themselves and fight in the chess game without noticing the master's approach.

They don't know how to play, and they don't know how to play.

Huaiqing's eyebrows are more and more wrinkled. This kind of playful way is very hard for her. But after a while, she understood.

This kind of chess is very simple. It doesn't matter who is the first to form five pieces, vertically or horizontally or obliquely. Whoever is the first to form five stars in a row is the winner.Can't help but say: "this is what chess?"

The two palace maids trembled and got up in a panic. They answered in a soft voice, "it's Gobang."

Gobang? What's this?

Huaiqing, who learned to be rich, was stunned.

Another palace maid explained, "it's from Princess Lin'an. Now it's in the palace. Everyone is playing."

She refers to the eunuchs and maids in the palace.

"I heard that even Princess Chen said it was interesting." Another maid said.

Lin'an? She's just a stupid girl... Huaiqing nodded and said, "I'm going to take a bath in my palace. I don't need to prepare for lunch."

Emperor Yuanjing is going to have a family dinner this morning. The princes and daughters are going to have dinner in the Qianqing palace.

After bathing, Princess Huaiqing left Yuanzi and went to Qianqing palace.

She met her brothers and sisters in the magnificent elegant hall. In places without her, Lin'an, who likes to wear red skirts and colorful jewelry, is the center of the topic.

Today, some are very different. The brothers and sisters just nodded to Huaiqing and continued the topic just now.

"It's easy for me to understand the rules of wuzicha, which is popular in Linan."

"The name of Princess Lin'an will also be widely spread."

Her face is mellow and her peach blossom eyes are charming. She enjoys the flattery of her brothers and sisters. She has a sweet smile at the corner of her mouth and makes a few modest remarks.

Like a proud little hen who wants to show off and endure.

See Huaiqing come in, she slightly raised the white jaw, put forward a proud posture.

Quick envy me, quick envy me... Framed heart broken read, with more than light glance Huaiqing.

But Gao Leng's Huaiqing just sat and drank a few sips of tea, ignoring his stupid sister.

Hum... Huaiqing is really jealous of me. Mounting comforted himself in my heart.

Princess Huaiqing is not a gregarious princess, which is not only her pride, but also because her ideas make princes and princesses unable to speculate. The topics discussed by princesses are good-looking clothes and rouge powder, but she is interested in four books and five classics.

When princes discuss current affairs and the overall situation, she will say: how to solve the flood, how to be a political official?

Princes will be very uncomfortable, this special who knows? We are talking about the overall situation and the macro issues. You are not raising a bar.

Near noon, the eunuch in Yuanjing palace came to invite several princesses.

Mounting buttocks bumping with the prince's brother behind, skirt flying, suddenly heard behind Huaiqing voice: "Lin'an."

Mount mount "Hey" smile, completely unable to control his expression, proud to say: "why!"

When the other princes went away, Huaiqing said faintly, "who taught you Gobang?"

"I made it myself." Lin'an is in fact very tangled, because this is Xu Qi'an taught her, she should not be ignorant of conscience for her own use, but brothers speak too well, she can't stop.

After a while, I said it was Xu Ningyan who taught me... She thought.

"Later my father asked, you'd better say the same." Huaiqing walked out, his voice was cold and sweet, with a warning:

"my father doesn't like that guy, so we should use our brains when we talk."

With that, Huaiqing added, "if you have one."

The word "why" was rigidly engulfed by the mounting. She was like a little lion, catching up with Huaiqing and saying angrily:

"you have no brain, you have no brain!"

"I'm more beautiful than you and smarter than you. You see, Xu Ningyan is willing to be an ox and a horse for me. He doesn't want you."

Huaiqingmeng's stop step, stern slant one eye.

Mounted like a vigorous cat, "miso" jumps back and thinks he is too counsellor. Peach blossom eyes stare back stubbornly.

Princess Huaiqing raised her hand.

"Brother Prince, Huaiqing is going to beat me." Mount mount escaped with a scream.

At the banquet, Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty asked about it.

Huaiqing how to know the emperor to ask... Lin'an heart surprised, subconsciously looked at the eyes hate Huaiqing, her beautiful face has no expression, self-care food.

Mounting eyes "gululu" a turn, smiling coquetry: "because Lin'an is the father's daughter, the father is the world's most intelligent people."

Emperor yuan Jingdi had a big laugh.

As expected, his father has been paying attention to the situation in the palace, just as he silently overlooks the court Hall... Huaiqing's face has not changed its color.

She didn't cultivate her confidants in the palace, and she never actively inquired about the news of the palace. She didn't even know about the Gobang that had recently spread.

It's not that Huaiqing doesn't know, but she doesn't want to know.

Princess Huaiqing has to admit that although Lin'an's sister is extremely stupid, even waste firewood can work. It all depends on how you use her.

At least no one in the imperial palace can win over Lin'an in the favor of his father, including those concubines who are not or have been favored.
