They are too similar, Xuan Jingchen thought. Perhaps it was because His Royal Highness the Prince had the heart of a young man from beginning to end. Xuan Jingchen looked at the young man under the horse, his brows and eyes were gentle, "If that's the case, let's say goodbye to the young master."
"Sir, walk slowly." Zhong Lishuo nodded slightly and watched Xuan Jingchen pull the reins to turn the horse and walk towards the night. Zhong Lishuo looked at her gradually receding back, and involuntarily took a step forward and called out loudly, "Master Yongle..."
Immediately, Xuan Jingchen looked back and looked at the boy in front of the door suspiciously. Zhong Lishuo looked at her misty face in the night, with an incomparably peaceful heart, she looked at the queen, and said gently: "It's dark in the middle of the night, please walk slowly."
At that moment, Zhong Lishuo, who finally got to see the queen, almost couldn't help but want to shout - Zitong, I haven't seen you for many years, are you still safe? Can you remember the loneliness
But she can't say, she can only watch the person she admires gradually go away. Xuan Jingchen smiled when he heard the words, nodded and said warmly, "Thank you, young master, for your concern, I will."
Xuan Jingchen rode his horse and left Qionghua Lane in the dark. Zhong Lishuo held the sheet music and listened to Xuan Jingchen's hooves clattering away, only to feel that a heart fell on the cold ground of early spring.
Zhong Lishuo stood there, feeling lost.
Behind her, Le Zhengying walked towards her, reached out and patted her shoulder, and said, "Go back and tell my sister, didn't Ah Sheng pick you up today? Why did you walk back alone."
"I had someone stop the car halfway, just to urgently use the sick person in the family, so I ordered Ah Sheng to send the person to the hospital." Zhong Lishuo turned around and walked into the mansion with his eldest sister, and said softly, "I'll be back late. It's a little bit more worrying for my sister, and I hope my sister doesn't want to blame."
Le Zhengying stretched out her hand, tapped her head, and replied with a smile, "What's your fault, I'm worried that you're hungry."
When the young man was growing his body, he heard a rumbling sound from his stomach. Zhong Lishuo looked at Le Zhengying speechlessly, but saw the eldest sister burst into laughter, "Alright, alright, dinner is ready, go in quickly."
She urged her sister, her eyes fell on what Zhong Lishuo was holding, and she asked suspiciously, "What is it that you are holding in your arms?"
Zhong Lishuo looked at the sheet music in his arms and replied with a smile: "It is the sheet music, Mr. Lin's "Sea God", he gave me a copy of the sheet music today."
"Did you go to Lin Mengdie?" Le Zhengying was slightly startled, but saw her sister nodding, and said happily, "Yes, I sincerely ask for it."
After she finished speaking, she quickly stepped into the hall and greeted the eldest sister briskly: "Sister, come quickly, I'm hungry."
The high-spirited young man, the corners of his eyes and his brows are full of joyful spring. Le Zhengying shook her head and followed slowly with a smile.
After saying goodbye to the queen of Zhong Lishuo, after returning to the palace and having a simple dinner, she went to Zhaohui Hall to handle government affairs. Attendant An Yi, who had been waiting for her return in the palace, said softly beside her after the queen sat down and raised the red pen: "Your Majesty, King Yunzhong came to the palace today, saying that he has something important to report."
"When he saw that you were not there, he left a letter for you."
Earlier, Xuan Jingchen had told An Yi that the news about Zhong Limu should be conveyed in time. When Xuan Jingchen heard this, he put down the red pen, and You Zi calmly said, "Give me the letter."
An Yi handed over the letter left by King Yun Zhong, and Xuan Jingchen took the heavy envelope, opened it in three or two, and found a sapphire jade.
She frowned, put Qingyu down, took out the pressed letter, and quickly swept it away.
"Your Majesty, please read, Wei Chen recently got a piece of news all the way in Heihutong..."
When he learned that Emperor Zhao's death had no secret, Xuan Jingchen set out to investigate the people who stayed by Emperor Zhao's side before the palace change. As for Zhong Limu, he set out to Southern Border to investigate the origin of the poison.
There are seventy-two fortresses in the southern border, each of which has its own unique method. This blood cicada is only unique to Heihutong, and even the Southern Border King knows its symptoms and does not know how to solve it. Only the Patriarch of the Bo people knows the law.
Zhong Limu asked the Patriarch of the Bo people for help for the sake of Emperor Zhao's death and for the guards. The two medical workers and guards who went to the southern border by Emperor Zhao's will were allowed by the Patriarch of the Bo people to participate in the dispensing of medicines.
Gu Poison is the soul of a thorn, and if the method to decipher it is known, this thorn will also be abolished. Although a small medical worker is familiar with Southern Border Gu poison, it is very difficult to dispense an antidote by one person.
King Yunzhong passed the news of dispensing the medicine to Heihutong, and learned that the Patriarch of the Bo people helped King Yunzhong, and Heihutong, who had no one in the clan to help, had to pray that the patriarch would not give up on them and spread the method of detoxification, thus Active dispensing.
Not only that, but also calmly informed the assassination of Zhong Limu.
Having been dealing with the Chu people for hundreds of years, the originally honest Bo people are not much better than the cunning merchants in Wanzhou.
Heihutong, who has always had commercial transactions with the Chu people in Yunzhou, finally got angry when the goods were restricted from trading for more than half a year. After listening to the leader of a chamber of commerce who entered the southern border, I just realized that it was the ban of King Yunzhong. Heihutong, who couldn't survive, was thinking about it.
It's just that they didn't say who was provoking them before, but they were guarding some kind of unspeakable loyalty.
The head of the chamber of commerce, surnamed Yang, was the shopkeeper under the ship merchant surnamed Yang in Wanzhou. Because of the factors, he had a deal with Heihutong, so everyone in Heihutong knew him well.
According to Heihutong, King Yunzhong has already started to take people down.
After accidentally solving his own affairs, Heihutong also explained the matter of Xuechan. The method of gu poison has always been passed on to the next shrine maiden in Dongzhong, and the next shrine maiden in Heihudong fell off a cliff and died eight years ago.
This is an old incident in Heihutong, but it is related to the whereabouts of the poison that murdered Emperor Zhao's blood cicada.
Ten years ago, during the war in Yunzhou, there was a group of soldiers who fled to the southern Xinjiang under the pursuit of Xuan Jingchen's army. Don't enter the foggy forest. Many soldiers did not pass through the terrifying forest full of Gu worms. Only one young man climbed out and floated down the river to the Black Tiger Mountain, where he was rescued by a girl named Ah Qian.
Ah Qian is the next witch in the middle of the mountain. The innocent and kind girl rescued the young man and prayed to the clan to keep the young man. As they get along day by day, girls and young people develop feelings for each other. But the girl had a marriage contract since she was a child. After the girl's coming-of-age ceremony, the girl who did not want to marry her fiancé made an appointment with the young man to escape from Heihutong.
He escaped from the southern border and went to live in the prosperous state of Chu.
The plans of the young men and women were seen through, and on the night of their escape, the girl sent the young man to a boat heading for Yunzhou, and she was taken back by her clan.
The witch told Ah Qian that she had given the young man a blood cicada, and she would die sooner or later, so Ah Qian gave up. But Ah Qian sneered and told his mother, who was a witch, that she had already detoxified the youth's gu poison, and also told the youth how to prepare the blood cicada gu.
But soon, Ah Qian vomited a mouthful of blood. It turned out that after Ah Qian solved the young man's blood cicada, he also gave the young man a connection branch.
If this life is a connected branch, it will be lingering and inseparable.
Young men and women who have been poisoned. You can't leave the other party for two hours, or you will die from vomiting blood. Ah Qian knew that he couldn't escape from the black tiger ridge, and he didn't want the youth to be involved, so he slammed his head against the wall, killed the mother Gu, and set the youth free, but he himself died.
This girl and the youth talked about life and death together, but in the end, when she knew that the person she loved would leave with her, she still chose to let the other person stay in the world safe and sound.
The Bo people have the custom of enshrining their lovers' tokens. A Qian is the daughter of a witch, and the witch is still soft-hearted and left her daughter's bone chain and a token from the youth to her daughter.
The young man did not leave a surname, but only said his name was Acheng. And the token of love for the girl is the sapphire jade that is now placed on the queen's table.
After scanning the letter, the queen picked up the sapphire jade on the case, and carefully identified the emblem on the jade, her pupils shrunk, which really matched the words in the book of King Yunzhong.
The Golden Crow, which symbolizes the descendants of the Eastern Emperor, flying over the mountains and seas is the totem of the Chu royal family. Every prince, after birth, will be blessed by Taiyiguan with a lucky jade as a symbol of the descendants of the royal family.
Ah Cheng, his surname is Zhong Li, his full name is Zhong Li Cheng.
Zhong Licheng was the prince of Zhongzhou who died in Yunzhou at the time of the Zhongzhou rebellion. His head was cut off, and together with his father and uncle, he was hung outside the city for three days according to the Emperor's will.
How could Zhong Licheng, who was shot by Xuan Jingchen himself, still survive. The queen pinched Zhong Limu's letter, thinking about the battlefield many years ago, and frowned.
The battle of Yunzhou, because the opponent has an astrologer, cannot be defeated for a long time. Later, he obtained the power of Qinglan, the superintendent of the sky, to break through the city. Could it be that Zhong Licheng escaped with the help of an astrologer.
She knew the abilities of a Taoist with a high level of cultivation, so when she caught Zhong Licheng, she personally asked Qinglan to confirm it. But it turns out, is it still wrong
If Zhong Licheng was still alive and knew about the blood cicada, then Zhong Limu's guess that he murdered Emperor Zhao for revenge would be justified. If so, in the group of people around Emperor Zhao, which one was Zhong Licheng? And now Zhong Licheng, is he dead or alive, and where is he
Did the death of Emperor Zhao really have nothing to do with the courtiers
The queen put down Zhong Limu's letter, only to feel that the clues she finally got were still a mess.
She glanced at the letter again and looked at the sentence, "Even if there is no mother Gu, the person who has been hit by Lianlizhi has a body that is different from ordinary people. Even in dog days, hands and feet are as cold as snow. No matter whether you are a man or a woman, you lose your love. It's like falling into an ice cave."
Extraordinary…
The queen handed the subtle clues to the dark guards, with anticipation, hoping that they could find Zhong Licheng, who was no longer there.
After dealing with the matter at hand for a short time, the empress, who was in love with Emperor Zhao, was a little out of her mind. She was busy for a while, then put down the red pen and said to the An Yi female official: "Ask Da Siming if she has fallen asleep, and if not, ask her to come over."
