Looking at each other, Qin Wan stripped the word "warm" from Yan Ze for the first time.
His eyes were deep and bright, like a star of cold light emerging from the deep invisible abyss, when he looked at her, the oppressive force that sent chills down the spine was unavoidable.
Qin Wan was not shocked, she just stared at Yan Ze's eyes, and when she was alerted by the oppression, she was sizing up Yan Ze's eyes.
He was born with a pair of phoenix eyes, which are common to the direct descendants of the Yan family. In the past, these eyes were dull and lifeless, like pearls covered in dust, but now, the haze has dissipated, and these eyes reveal his original sharpness and coldness, just like picking up Yan Ze himself after losing his disguise...
The white shirt swelled against the wind, but Qin Wan could no longer see the elegance and elegance of the orchid branches and jade trees. Yan Ze's eyes were filled with a dark light that was bottomless, and his clothes seemed to have melted into frost, snow and ice. Qin Wan stood In front of him, a chill spread from the soles of his feet little by little.
"When did His Highness's eyes heal?" Qin Wan finally opened his mouth after a while.
Yan Ze said slowly, "Before going to Shen's house for the first time."
Qin Wan's eyebrows twitched suddenly, Shen Zhai! Yan Ze actually mentioned Shen's house!
Sun Muqing, a descendant of that house, bought it and invited them to go with him after repairing it. The first time he went there, the house was already Sun's house!
But Yanze still said that it was Shen's house...
Qin Wan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the vigilance in his heart became more and more intense. It was also the first time he entered Shen's house after returning to Beijing.
Ordinary people, who have been blind for many years, will be overjoyed once they see the light of day again, but Yan Ze was able to hide all of them, including Yue Ning, as usual. This kind of endurance is enough to show his power, Qin Wan retreated subconsciously After taking a half step, "What did your Highness say just now?"
Princess Rui and my mother were once close friends in the boudoir.
Well done, why did you mention Yan Chi's mother and concubine
Qin Wan had a faint guess in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, and just looked at Yan Ze motionlessly.
Yan Ze's eyes were unwavering, like a black and cold pool of still water flowing deep, "My mother and concubine died of illness, and so did Prince Rui and Princess Rui. For so many years, it is impossible for Yan Chi to have no doubts in his heart. Uncle Prince Rui There must have been doubts, but Uncle Wang values loyalty too much, if not, there would be nothing wrong with Liangzhou."
Qin Wan's heart was shocked, even though she had such a guess in her heart, Yan Ze's words still made her feel nervous.
If this is the case, isn't the death of Yanze's father, queen, mother and concubine all related to the emperor
However, Qin Wan thought about the current situation, but could not fully believe Yan Ze's words, "Does your Highness have evidence?"
Hearing this, Yan Ze suddenly laughed, "I want to know the evidence, so that Yan Ze can extract the bones of Prince Rui and Princess Rui just like me. You are the best master of the Zhou Dynasty. I just need you to test it. I don't know if Yan Chi dares to do this."
Qin Wan frowned very tightly, there was nothing Yan Chi didn't dare to do.
Princess Ke Yi's tomb is also in the imperial tomb, when did Yanze bring out her bones? How long has it been in this house
Qin Wan looked back, and suddenly found that the small courtyard he entered was inexplicably strange. The four corners of the roof ridge of the main house were cut off, and the red lacquer paintings under the verandah were replaced with black lacquer. I didn't raise my eyes to look at it, I just felt that the courtyard was desolate and depressing, only now that I stood far away did I realize the difference in this courtyard.
Yan Ze followed Qin Wan's gaze, "The feng shui here is excellent, and it is the best place to store the bones of my mother and concubine."
After saying a word, Qin Wan felt a chill in his heart, and instantly felt that the house was like a tomb.
Yan Ze didn't say much, but his gaze fell lightly on the ridge of the roof. Qin Wan looked at Yan Ze as if he had never known him before, "So what is Your Highness planning to do?"
Yan Ze suddenly turned to look at Qin Wan, "Why don't you ask why my concubine mother was poisoned, and who did it?"
Qin Wan took a tight breath and didn't answer for a while, a gleam flashed in Yan Ze's eyes, "You really know."
Qin Wan's expression turned serious, "I know, maybe not as much as Your Highness knows."
Yan Ze looked at Qin Wan up and down for a moment, "Knowing too much is not a good thing. The family of the former minister of Dali Temple, Shen Yi, was exterminated because he knew too much. You and Yan Chi are getting married soon, so it's better not to interfere in this matter."
There was a sneer on the corner of Qin Wan's lips, "Your Highness told me this, just to persuade me not to spoil His Highness' plan?"
There was no panic on Yan Ze's face, he just said quietly, "I just want to remind you, and I also want to remind Yan Chi that Uncle Prince Rui died in Liangzhou, Yan Chi had better not become the next Prince Rui Uncle." Yan Ze withdrew his gaze, "What I can know, the emperor may also know, if the emperor finds out that you have erected a tomb for Shen Yi and his wife, if the emperor finds out whether you and the queen communicate with each other in private, guess, will you go together? Shen Yi's footsteps?"
There was a chill on Qin Wan's back...
They went to set up the clothes tomb, the empress asked them to meet Aunt Qian, these things, Yanze actually knew!
Qin Wan's complexion was heavy, and the fists in his sleeves were unconsciously clenched together.
Yan Ze raised his jaw slightly, "Today's meeting, only you and I know, go and tell Yan Chi that it is not a good thing for the emperor to arrange for him to temporarily lead the imperial guards to find the queen's whereabouts, how can he hide his actions in Shuoxi from the emperor? The building is about to fall, and he is one of the people who can turn the tide, it would be a pity if he was imprisoned."
Having said this, Yan Ze walked towards the house, "Tanxiang, send the princess back."
Qin Wan came here in a carriage prepared by Tan Xiang, so if he wanted to leave now, he could only let Tan Xiang deliver him.
Qin Wan turned around and watched Yan Ze enter the main entrance, and then watched his snow-colored figure disappear behind the door, the corners of his lips moved slightly, but he didn't ask anything.
She clearly had a lot of questions in her heart, but when she really wanted to ask, she couldn't ask anything. She never thought that Yan Ze could be so direct and magnanimous in exposing the most original side to her eyes. He was not afraid of her saying this Tell the Queen Mother about the matter, and she is not afraid that she will tell Yue Ning about it. He knows far more than her. Even if he has nothing to hide, she is the one who is under the control of others. Yan Chi's situation made Yue Ning extremely worried.
This person is no longer the third elder brother in her memory, and this person is far from being as gentle as jade, aloof from the world, and the hatred of killing his mother is irreconcilable, but what is the result that Yan Ze wants? The building is about to collapse, does he want to support the new master, or is he going to be the new master himself
Unknown to Qin Wan, she suddenly missed Yan Chilai terribly.
In the face of the struggle of the royal family, the Hou Mansion is vulnerable, and she herself is even more like an ant.
Qin Wan turned around slowly and walked to the gate of the courtyard. Outside, Sandalwood was waiting respectfully beside the carriage. Seeing Qin Wan coming out, he hurriedly asked, "Princess, where are you going?"
Qin Wan regained consciousness and said, "Prince Rui's Mansion."
Sandalwood was a little surprised, but quickly responded.
When the carriage rattled and moved, Qin Wan's heart was still chilling. Five people died in Ning Buyi's case, so what was the original purpose of Punishing Evil Dojo? Lifting the curtain of the car, Qin Wan looked back at the strange courtyard with its cornices and corners cut off, and the doubts in his heart grew deeper and deeper.
The carriage walked through the alleys in the south of the city for two sticks of incense, then got on the main road, and ran towards the direction of Prince Rui's mansion. Before reaching the mansion of Prince Rui, Qin Wan got off the carriage and said, "Go back Well, I will go back to the Hou Mansion by myself later."
Sandalwood responded respectfully, and then drove away.
Bai Ying stepped forward to call the door, and Qin Wan didn't know that Yan Chi hadn't come back until she entered the palace.
Qin Wan's heart was empty, and she still walked towards the water pavilion, but halfway through, Qin Wan turned around and headed towards the study that Yan Chi took her to last time.
It was Prince Rui's study room, and there was a portrait of Prince Rui and Princess Rui before his death. Qin Wan suddenly wanted to see what that portrait looked like.
Bai Ying followed behind and said, "Miss, Prince Yan Ze..."
Qin Wan shook his head, "I can't see through him, wait for Yanchi to come back."
There are no servants in Prince Rui's mansion, but there are many hidden guards. Qin Wan went deep into the mansion, and met many guards along the way, but no one dared to stop Qin Wan. They only bowed silently and then retreated. Wan's heart gradually settled down, the palace seemed empty and desolate, but it was guarded everywhere, making people feel safe.
Not long after, they arrived at the courtyard of Prince Rui's study. Yan Chi was not there. Although Qin Wan was free to move around, she still didn't go into the room. She stood in the courtyard for a while, and only now began to understand what Yan Ze said today—
The building is about to fall, and Yan Chi is also one of the people who can turn the tide.
What does Yan Ze mean by these words? The building is about to collapse, does it mean that the queen and the prince are fleeing, or does it mean that the identity of the emperor is about to be revealed to the world
To say that Yan Chi is one of the people who will turn the tide means that he has other candidates.
Qin Wan's eyelids twitched. Could it be that the queen and the prince...
Qin Wan left after standing in the courtyard for two sticks of incense. The sun had already set in the west, and the cold wind became more and more bitter. Xi's contacts are very frequent, just like when Qin Wan didn't know that Yanze had made the capital turbulent, what kind of chaos is Shuoxi going through at this moment? !
Qin Wan didn't know, she just wanted to wait until Yan Chi told him about Yan Ze, but seeing the sky getting darker, Yan Chi didn't come back yet.
Bai Ying went to ask the guards in the mansion, but the guards said that Yan Chi didn't come back until midnight these days, and he hasn't returned at this time today, and most likely he would come back in the middle of the night.
Qin Wan felt a little helpless, so he had no choice but to leave a note and go back to Hou Mansion first.
At the same time, outside the Chongzheng Hall, Lin Zhang was walking into the emperor's imperial study with an unopened seal.
"Your Majesty, I sent it back urgently from eight hundred miles to the west."
The emperor raised his head from the desk, frowning slightly, "What happened to Shuoxi?"
Lin Zhang shook his head and said he didn't know, and sent the secret book to the emperor, "Shuoxi's book was only delivered three days ago, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. I don't know why this book came so quickly. This book is It was sent back by detour to Mengzhou."
Hearing this, the emperor frowned even tighter, took out a short dagger to remove the wax, and quickly took back the text message inside.
Unfolding the letter paper, the emperor glanced at the past, and soon, the emperor slapped the letter paper on the imperial case with a "slap". Both Lin Zhang and Yuan Qing, who was waiting beside him, were taken aback. Lin Zhang wondered, "Your Majesty, what happened?"
The emperor's phoenix pupils were narrow and cold, and he glanced coldly at Lin Zhang, who felt guilty in his heart.
"Half of the notebooks sent by Shuoxi were blocked, you didn't know?"
Lin Zhang stared, "What? This is impossible! Who dares to block the booklet for His Majesty?"
The emperor smiled coldly, "Then you know that Chu Feicheng has been rescued, not only that, there are now nearly ten thousand refugees gathered around Shuoxi, and they have captured the entire sentry camp around the Shuoxi camp." department?!"
Lin Zhang's face changed drastically when he heard this, "What?! How could this be! How dare they?!"
Nearly 10,000 refugees can already be described as treason, but the Shuoxi army camp has only more than 80,000 troops, and the surrounding checkpoints are the hands and eyes of the Shuoxi army. With these checkpoints, both the internal and external defenders can advance and retreat With a degree, who has the guts to take down so many battalions!
"This... Chu Feicheng wants to rebel?! Is he leading people to make trouble?!"
Having said that, Lin Zhang's eyebrows twitched, and he quickly realized that something was wrong, "But he can't stop the emperor's secret agreement, unless..."
Unless this person has greater power and can master all the secret routes from Shuoxi to the capital, and the only person who can do this is...
Lin Zhang's eyes widened suddenly, but the emperor sneered at this moment, "No wonder Shuoxi's army was begged for food and pay at that time!"
