The red couplets are carved with regular script, the flying beams are painted on the buildings, the pavilions and pavilions are all exquisite and orderly.
Under a century-old camphor tree, two people sat facing each other, one in green and the other in white, with elegant eyebrows and focused expressions. One held a white seed, the other a black one. The quiet place was silent, except for the gentle summer breeze, which slowly blew by. Passing by, he picked up a few pieces of clothes and fluttered slightly, making the beauty even more picturesque.
"His Highness invites me today. I'm afraid it's not just about playing chess, right?" Qing Yi said with a half-smile, and dropped a white piece on the chessboard. Ding Ding looked at Helian Kuang.
He Liankuang followed closely behind him, dropped a sunspot calmly, and looked up at him. But said with a smile. "It doesn't matter, you are a true gentleman watching the chess without saying anything. Let's finish the game."
The young man in green had a smile on his face, tapping the folding fan gently on the chessboard, but the corners of his eyes curved like crescent moons, and nodded. "That's fine."
From time to time, a palace maid would quietly accompany them, carrying a green-screened mountain water-splashed ink streamer fan as tall as one person, sending bursts of coolness to the two of them.
In the blink of an eye, two hours passed. The young man in green clothes finally put down his chess game and slightly raised his hand towards Helian Kuang.
"I haven't seen you for many days, but His Highness is still attacking so quickly and fiercely, opening and closing in large numbers, which catches people off guard."
Helian Kuang was startled for a moment, then he also put down the black piece in his hand, shook his head at the young man in green and spoke. "You are too self-effacing. This game is just a draw. You defended well and advanced and retreated with ease. Even on the next day, we can't tell a winner."
The young man in green didn't refuse and bowed his head slightly. "Your Highness is very flattering. Wang Qing is really flattered by His Highness's hospitality to Wang Qing today."
As he said this, there was no trace of humility in his face. Instead, he showed a bit of elegance and talent. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and he had the feeling of a generation of romantic talents.
The two of them were complimenting each other again, and Qing Yi finally spoke. "I heard that His Highness took over the murder case of the second son of the Marquis Junyuan. I wonder if there is any progress?"
Helian nodded wildly, his expression no longer as relaxed and comfortable as before. Instead, he looked at Qing Yi with a bit of solemnity, and solemnly nodded in recognition. "With some clues, the murderer is someone else."
Qing Yi raised her eyebrows slightly, holding the blue and white porcelain cup brought by the maid with her green and jade-like knuckles, she took a sip and smiled lightly.
"Oh? I wonder if your highness has any clues. If it is useful to Wang Qing, your highness can just ask."
Having said that, no one is a fool. He Lian Kuang invited Qing Yi to come and play chess for no reason, and he was so insidious and made a embarrassment. Based on Qing Yi's understanding of He Lian Kuang, how could he not understand He Lian Kuang's heart? What do you think
If you don't say anything, you won't be able to drill through the wood, so it's better to say it.
Helian Kuang relaxed his brows, glanced at Wang Qing appreciatively, and nodded without hesitation in his praise. "Sure enough, I'm really smart. I'm looking for you today because I really want your help with something."
Qing Yi was still submissive, raised his hand, and spoke with his humble attitude. "I'm just a servant who speaks softly. I'm afraid I can't do anything to help His Highness."
After a moment of silence, Helian Kuang narrowed his eyes slightly, looking straight at Qing Yi with a dangerous look, and curled the corners of his lips. "Wang Qing, you are still a cunning old fox. You want my gratitude but don't want to contribute. How can there be such a good thing in this world? What's more, even if there is such a good thing, you can't help me."
Why, will it happen to me? "
Wang Qing sighed sadly and murmured with a helpless expression. "I knew that coming today would be the Hongmen Banquet. In that case, I'll admit it. Tell me, what's going on?"
They have known each other for many years and are considered close friends. How could they not understand their respective personalities? What you did just now was just pretentious and pretentious.
Helian Kuang straightened his expression, looked at Wang Qing and said. "I want to bring someone into your Junyuan Hou Mansion. Will you help me with this?"
This... Wang Qing's handsome face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Helian Kuang in "embarrassment" and guessed.
"Could it be that His Highness the Seventh Prince wants to investigate the Junyuan Hou Mansion and collect evidence to threaten my father, Junyuan Hou? Helian Kuang, this doesn't seem to be your style."
The slightly questioning gaze made Helian Kuang frown slightly and spoke again. "I'm just asking if you can help me. I want to bring someone to re-examine your brother's body. Maybe there will be new clues."
Wang Qing was startled, and then suddenly laughed. He was already very handsome, and when he smiled like this, his eyebrows became even more curved, making him look more like an elegant scholar.
"I once heard, and now I believe, that it was a woman from Moshang Xiangfang who killed my second brother, and it is said that this woman was so bold that she once went to the Du Mansion, and His Highness the Third Highness was still supporting her behind the scenes, and it seems, The relationship between the two is not shallow. It is really puzzling to Wang Qing that His Highness the Seventh would give up such a good opportunity to suppress His Highness the Third and help a woman."
Wang Qing looked at He Lian Kuang intently, as if he wanted to know the truth of the matter. Seeing He Lian Kuang's silence, he raised his eyebrows and joked. "Is it possible that His Highness the Seventh Prince is also interested in that woman and wants to help her clear away the suspicion?"
The person in front of me is dressed in green clothes, with a friendly face and elegant eyes. He doesn't look like a scheming person, but his words are full of calculations, making people unguarded. He is really cunning. He Liankuang was struck by Qing Yi's words for a moment, his face turned a little red, but his face was somewhat concealed, he looked at Qing Yi and said in a deep voice.
"Wang Qing, has anyone ever told you that you are actually a terrible enemy?"
Wang Qing was not afraid at all, and immediately shed his identity as a gentle little white rabbit, smiling like a big-tailed wolf, waving the folding fan in his hand, his peach blossom eyes full of joy. He spoke.
"It seems I was right. Presumably, the person you want to bring into my Marquis Junyuan's residence is also this woman, right?"
Link by link, Wang Qing probed He Lian Kuang's details bit by bit, leaving He Lian Kuang unable to refute. After looking at Wang Qing, He Lian Kuang admitted boldly.
"So what? It would be a good thing for you to find out the real murderer of your brother."
"A good thing?" Wang Qing frowned slightly, somewhat disapproving of Helian Kuang's words. Continue to speak. "My brother, apart from causing trouble and drinking wine, I don't know what he would do. For me, all I need to do is catch the murderer. As for whether he is the real murderer, I don't care."
After Wang Qing finished speaking, he walked behind Helian Kuang, gently put his hands on He Lian Kuang's shoulders, and said with a shy look. "Of course, if His Highness wants to use his status to embarrass Qing'er, Qing'er will have to obey you, Your Highness. However, Your Highness, you can
Remember, if someone finds out, Qing'er will be forced by you. "
Several maids looked at the prince who was an elegant young master one moment, and transformed into a weird and superhuman prince the next moment. Their jaws almost dropped in shock. It was hard to accept how much stimulation the good young master who was so elegant just now was now. It turned out to be like this.
As for Helian Kuang, his face turned black, he looked at Wang Qing's paws on his body, and said expressionlessly. "If Qing'er really likes this, I can ask Black Eagle to help you get some handsome men to accompany you. I hope Qing'er can really like her. In that case, I will be very happy."
Later, the words suddenly added a bit of gloominess. Wang Qing's expression suddenly changed, he immediately retracted his hand, coughed, put away his charming expression, and said seriously.
"I can help you, but I have to see that woman."
With such a righteous expression, it seemed that the person who was so embarrassed just now was not him at all.
Helian glanced at him coldly, obviously used to Wang Qing's occasional convulsions, and continued to speak expressionlessly. "Okay, I'll see you outside the backyard of your house at three o'clock tonight."
Wang Qing looked at Helian Kuang for a long time with a very curious look, and then spoke. "Before that, tell me first, who is that woman? What attracts you to her?"
Helian Kuang's face darkened and he looked at him. "none of your business?"
Wei Qing paused, rolled his eyes, and immediately said: "This woman is the suspect who killed my second brother. As the brother, I have the right to know the specific situation of this woman!"
"..." Helian Kuang's expression turned even colder. Without hesitation, he gave instructions to the maids around him. "see a visitor out."
He Lian Kuang opened his mouth, and the maids naturally did not dare to disobey. Looking at Wang Qing, who was fuming and cute like a bun, they bowed. After all, they felt a little unbearable, and their tone was a little more respectful, and they turned towards He Lian Kuang Yingying. He bowed and said.
"Sir, please come this way."
Wang Qing was stunned at first, and then realized that he was kicked out by Helian Kuang! At that moment, his heart became angry, and he looked at Helian Kuang and snorted coldly, then gritted his teeth and cursed.
"Helian Kuang, you are clearly trying to kill the donkey!"
He Liankuang raised his head slightly and frowned in confusion, "Are you a donkey?"
"you… "
He Liankuang had already laughed out loud, looked at Wang Qing and nodded. "Young Master Wang, see you there or see you."
“…”
The maids looked at Wang Qing who was cursing and leaving with great sympathy, and there was some sympathy in their eyes.
I didn't expect that the seemingly gentle man would have such a cunning personality, and that their master would be so sinister at times. It's really strange that they happen every year, especially this year.
Helian Kuang stood up, glanced at the unfinished game, and gave instructions to several people. "Prepare the car."
"yes."
After informing Du Suxi of the news, the two agreed on a time, and He Liankuang left in a hurry to drink tea and chat with the grumpy old marquis. During this period, the old marquis indeed punished Du Suxi severely. His words made him look like he was going to eat Du Suxi alive. Regarding this, He Liankuang had no choice but to wipe his sweat. Respond perfunctorily.
