V2.Chapter 29

"General Leng should ask me first, why do you have to work so hard to get the general here?" Liu Shangshu has been an old fox for many years. The more attention Leng Changxi paid to this news, the greater his hope of achieving his goal.

The reason why Leng doesn't hide his enthusiasm for this news is that he can grasp it enough.

"I don't have so much spare time," said Leng Changxi, who held up the tea cup on the table and took a sip under the black mask, which was full of ingenuity and self-confidence. "Besides, Liu Shangshu lost his son yesterday. Shouldn't he stay in the mansion and protect his son's body today? Mr. Liu, I hate threats the most. Don't make me

Liu Shangshu was also sitting up in a moment of danger. After he made the people around him retreat with his eyes, he came close to Leng Changxi's ear and said, "believe it or not, I can guarantee that what I said about the fire in Weiyang palace ten years ago is true, without any adulteration."

Leng Changxi is ready to wait for Liu Shangshu to continue.

"Ten years ago," Liu Shangshu began to recall the past with a leisurely look in his eyes, "I remember that Sima Rui, the third prince, was only 12 years old. At that time, he was a very unlucky and unpleasant child. His mother was just a palace maid who was spoiled by the Emperor's drunkenness. Before her death, she was only a regular position. In addition, her mother used to work in the palace of yunguifei, So Sima Rui will be squeezed and rejected by the imperial concubines. But after the fire in Weiyang palace, Sima Rui, the third prince's son, suddenly appeared at a banquet that he was not qualified to attend. That is, at that banquet, the empress saw the skinny and humble child, adopted him at her knees and followed his son The value of the third prince is also rising rapidly. "

"I know," said Leng Changxi, glancing at Liu Shangshu, "I was at the banquet. It was the 60th birthday of the Empress Dowager. Sima Rui played a piece of auspicious music with the musician, and then the empress saw it on the spot."

"That's right," Liu Shangshu said, touching the goatee's beard. "Don't general Leng think there's anything involved in this?"

Leng Changxi looked at Liu Yunshan in silence and did not speak. Leng Changxi has made various guesses and found numerous kinds of evidence. But it is too long. What he needs now is accurate witnesses and confirmation.

Liu Shangshu's eyes became more and more profound, as if there were endless secrets. He lowered his voice and said: "in fact, you and I all know who lived in Weiyang Palace at that time, and why the emperor and Empress Dowager protected Weiyang palace so well." Liu Shangshu said that he wrote a word "long" on the table with his index finger dipped in tea, which is self-evident.

Looking at Leng Changxi's brow tightened and he didn't speak, Liu Shangshu said: "people only know that the emperor sent Princess chang into Xixia to make peace, and they all know that later, Princess Chang's sending team was kidnapped by thieves at the junction of Xixia and Daqi, and they also know that a large number of search teams had been sent at that time, but the princess Chang's whereabouts were still unknown, so Daqi and Xixia broke off friendship for ten years But no one thought about it a little bit more. What happened to the results of the subsequent search? "

"I don't want to hear nonsense." Leng Changxi's tone is decisive.

Liu Shangshu snorted coldly: "I've been an official for so many years. It's not the means and the stratagem. What I'm good at is knowing the emperor's mind. As soon as the corner of the emperor's mouth is turned away, I know what happened. He is going to kill which official. I can't remember the situation at that time, but I can also know that the eldest princess was really rescued, And the place where he was secretly sent back to the palace is Weiyang palace. "

"According to the meaning of Liu Shangshu," Qin yunuan sat beside Leng Changxi, listening carefully to Liu Shangshu, "since the emperor has found the princess, why not tell the world this good thing?"

"Hum," Liu Shangshu said leisurely, "in my opinion, there are only two reasons for concealing the long princess's return to the palace. First, the long princess's body has become unclean, and it will damage the whole face of the world. Second, the Emperor himself has some unspeakable feelings for the long princess. The long Princess and the emperor always have deep feelings. Zhou Wu of the previous dynasty The emperor also married his elder sister. I'm afraid that the emperor would follow suit after the wind subsided, but I didn't expect that a sudden fire not only destroyed the most delicate Weiyang palace in Daqi, but also burned the long princess who lived in seclusion. "

"Absurd!" Leng Changxi slapped the table. "What do you think? How dare you guess the feelings between the emperor and the princess?"

"Otherwise?" Liu Shangshu showed a gesture that the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water and scalding. "In fact, it can be seen from the fact that the emperor has ordered general Leng to thoroughly investigate the case of Weiyang palace fire. The emperor is quite concerned about this matter, even, ah, for ten years."

"If this is the news you want to tell me, I can only say it is useless." Leng Changxi gets up and pulls Qin yunuan to leave.

"Of course, it's not just these things," Liu Shangshu hurriedly stood up and stopped Leng Changxi. "If there's only the news that Leng generals have already found out that they can't be separated from each other, how can I have the courage to talk with Leng generals about conditions?"Just when Leng Changxi's eyes had quickly condensed, Liu Shangshu suddenly took out a piece of paper from his waist, but Leng Changxi's eyes were cold, which made people feel that some could not be approached. Liu Shangshu turned and handed the paper to Qin yunuan's hand.

Qin yunuan opened it quickly. It's an address. It's not far away. It's on the outskirts of Beijing.

"This is the address of an old maid who had been serving in Weiyang Palace at that time. Although Weiyang palace was later ordered by the emperor to clear the palace, a group of people were exiled and executed, but she just escaped in the past. If general Leng doesn't believe it, you can follow this address to find out the truth of what I said."

"I don't need it." Leng Changxi didn't even glance at the address, so he put the note back into Liu Shangshu's hand. "Your chips are not very attractive."

Although it has been handed over, Qin yunuan has the ability of never forgetting. She has written down the address clearly. At the same time, Leng Changxi knows that Qin yunuan has an excellent memory. Qin yunuan knows what Leng Changxi means. He wants to eat black.

"Here..." Liu Shangshu's original atmosphere was destroyed by Leng Changxi's words.

Seeing that Leng Changxi is ready to leave, Liu Shangshu suddenly raises his voice: "general Leng, since we have a common enemy, why can't we cooperate?"

Leng Changxi stopped as expected. He turned back indifferently and looked at Liu Shangshu from head to foot in sharp eyes through the bat shaped mask.

"General Leng didn't know. Last night, I found a black spot in the dog's throat after I took the dog's body back to the house. Later, I asked the senior to see it. He said it was the trace left by the poisonous silver needle stabbing into the throat. The dog was really killed by someone, and the person who killed him was ten percent sure that he could not be separated from the third prince The case of the fire in the central palace is also related to the third prince. General Leng, don't you think it's easy for the emperor to know the real face of the third prince by exposing the evil things that the Third Prince did behind his back with the help of both of us? "

Liu Shangshu finished and gasped for breath. He was too worried. He was very afraid that Leng Changxi would not cooperate with him. Yes, he talked big. Although he was the elder who fought with the first emperor, his power and voice in the court are not as good as each other. Without Leng Changxi's support, he could not walk on foot.

"You look down on Sima Rui's ability too much," Leng Changxi despised very much. "And you look down on the level of my partner selection."

Since it is a cooperative relationship, it must be equal to Leng Changxi. Leng Changxi can't stand it.

Liu Shangshu clenched his teeth and suddenly bowed his hand to Leng Changxi and said, "as long as I can avenge the dog, I would like to listen to Leng's orders and assignments."

Leng Changxi's eyes extended a kind of wise light, but on the bright side, his mood didn't seem to change much. He was still so indifferent, as if he looked down on everything around him.

"I want you to write a memorial for the recent hot discussion on the establishment of the prince in the court." Leng Changxi said directly.

"Is it for me to support the eldest prince as prince?" This is Liu Shangshu's most instinctive guess.

"No," said Leng Changxi, shaking his head, "that Sima Qiu, the seventh prince, was attacked in the mausoleum and asked the emperor to take him back to the palace."

Sima Qiu, the seventh emperor's son, is the youngest son of the emperor. His mother's birth is also very noble. His family is not only the aristocracy of the family of Daqi, but also a lady who is one of the four concubines after giving birth to Sima Qiu. However, Sima Qiu was later convicted of the crime of witchcraft and demagogues, which also encumbered Sima Qiu, who was only six years old at that time. He was sent to the imperial mausoleum at a young age and lived a lonely and cold life. No When it comes to the case of witches and demagogues in those days, it's actually very tiresome, but no one dares to investigate it carefully. Who knows what kind of influence is involved behind it, touching it and moving the whole body.

Now the battle for the position of Prince has been in the white hot stage. Taking Sima Qiu back at this time is just like adding fuel to the fire, but what Leng Changxi wants is adding fuel to the fire.

"The seventh Prince is attacked?" Liu Shangshu seemed surprised.

"Not yet," said Leng in a light tone, "not too soon."

Liu Shangshu was a little surprised and looked at Leng Changxi for a long time. Just then, there was a sudden noise in the lobby, which was mixed with the noise of Beidi accent.
