The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

Chapter 424 The truth of assassination (two more)

The box was light and fluttering, Shen Yijia asked, "What is this?"

Xuanyuan Ce coughed lightly: "For you."

"Give it to me?" Shen Yijia pushed back, took Song Jingchen's arm and shook his head repeatedly: "Why do you give me something so good? I don't want it."

She hadn't forgotten that this person had asked the beautiful husband to divorce her before.

It's not because the beauty is unwilling, so you're ready to start with yourself, right?

Shen Yijia puffed out her cheeks, that was a big mistake!

Money, she can earn. Food or not.

But it's impossible for her to give up Beauty Xianggong!

Xuanyuance's heart froze, what does this expression of avoiding the plague mean?

He took a deep breath and opened the box in front of everyone: "It's not something valuable, it's for you to play with."

Shen Yijia glanced roughly, and there were four things inside, a longevity lock, a delicate hairpin, a hosta with its head carved into the shape of a magnolia flower, and finally a jade pendant.

The jade pendant and the hosta should both be made by the same person, and the carvings on them are a bit rough.

The longevity lock is even made of silver, so it is really worthless.

"These seem to be played by children, right?" Shen Yijia picked up the longevity lock and the golden hairpin, and gave him a strange look: "I'm seventeen."

"So let's play with you." Xuanyuance was a little stuck, why is this girl so serious.

Not only did he know that she was seventeen, but he also knew that today was September thirteen, according to the old monk.

Today should be this girl's birthday, but looking at the family's appearance, it is obvious that no one is celebrating her birthday. Xuanyuan Ce glanced at Song Jingchen, disgusting him even more in his heart.

Again, because of the previous lessons, I didn't dare to be too obvious.

However, Song Jingchen still felt it, and frowned, feeling inexplicable at the hostility that Xuanyuan Ce showed from time to time.

Shouldn't he rob him of any treasure?

If it was strange that Xuanyuance came here to give gifts, it would be even more inexplicable that after giving the gifts, he ran to the Song family's kitchen unceremoniously and cooked a pot of noodles for everyone to eat.

Fortunately, his cooking skills are not too bad, otherwise Shen Yijia would have suspected that he was here to get revenge on himself.

Dangtang had the noodles cooked by the king himself, and he didn't eat it for nothing, so Shen Yijia had a round belly.

After eating the noodles, Xuanyuance didn't mean to leave, Song Jingchen said suddenly: "I heard that the prince has recently approached Yongan County Master."

Xuanyuan Ce snorted: "You know a lot about me."

"I just heard a little." Song Jingchen didn't care about his attitude.

Furthermore, this matter was indeed not something he deliberately inquired about, so he was not guilty at all.

Because Xuanyuan Ce frequently met with Ji Yunxi, although they were all under the banner of seeing a doctor, some people in the official circles said that Xuanyuan Ce had a crush on the Yongan County Master and planned to marry Daxia.

And because the Yongan County Master had no intention of getting married, King Jingan couldn't bear the persecution, so he had to stay in Daxia to win the love of the beauties.

Song Jingchen didn't believe this, but the people behind Ji Yunxi were enemies and not friends, and Song Jingchen would never want to see Xuanyuan Kingdom drawn by them.

Xuanyuance naturally heard such rumors before, and his face darkened: "Why do you officials in Daxia look like a long-tongued woman."

Shen Yijia pulled Song Jingchen's hand: "What did they say?"

Song Jingchen glanced at Xuanyuance: "They said..."

"Cough cough cough." Xuanyuan Ce quickly interrupted him: "Master Song should not be that kind of chatter."

Song Jingchen was slightly stunned, nodded, and whispered a few words in Shen Yijia's ear.

He gave Xuanyuance a performance on the spot, and he really is!

So Xuanyuan Ce successfully received a contemptuous look from Shen Yijia.

Xuanyuance doesn't care what others say, but he still hopes to meet Shen Yijia one day, how dare she misunderstand.

Embarrassed to be seen for a while, he hurriedly explained: "Those are nothing, I just..."

I just want to check your mother's news through Ji Yunxi!

But there is no way to say this, this girl doesn't know anything and doesn't say anything, and now is not the time to involve her.

"You don't need to explain, we all understand, we all understand." Shen Yijia said understandingly.

What do you know what do you know?

Xuanyuan Ce felt that he would stay with this couple for a while longer, and he was sure to shorten his lifespan.

He took a deep breath and stood up. He hadn't found Ji Luo yet, so he couldn't be mad.

"My lord." Song Jingchen suddenly stopped him.

Xuanyuance glanced back at him angrily.

"There is something that may be of interest to your lord." Song Jingchen turned around and instructed Mo Yuan, who was beside him, "Go to my study and take out the box I placed in the third row of the bookshelf."

Mo Yuan paused, glanced at Xuanyuan Ce without a trace, and turned away.

After a while, she came out holding a box, and Song Jingchen motioned her to take it to Xuanyuan Ce.

Chu Feng wanted to reach out to pick it up, but Xuanyuan Ce stopped him. He took the box in person and noticed something, and his eyes flashed.

However, Mo Yuan had withdrawn her hand and retreated behind Shen Yijia.

Xuanyuan Ce squinted his eyes, retracted his thoughts and opened the box. There was a book in it. He opened the first page, and his eyes narrowed: "How could you have this?"

"Accidental gain." Song Jingchen was not too surprised by his reaction, and continued: "Since the lord knows about Tianji Valley, he should be able to guess why the people in Tianji Valley appeared in Daxia, and I hope the lord will not be used as a stepping stone for others. It is."

He was referring to the fact that the people in Tianji Valley only assisted those who had emperors and generals.

Xuanyuan Ce understood what he meant and sneered: "How do you know I'm not that person?"

"Your Highness?" Song Jingchen met his gaze.

No, he was just a layman, he just wanted to find a wife and daughter, and he didn't even bother to participate in the government of Xuanyuan.

Xuanyuan Ce closed the book and asked angrily, "Do I look like an idiot?"

Song Jingchen shrugged, who knows?

Xuanyuan Ce: ...

He couldn't stay here for a moment. He turned around and walked out. After two steps, he paused after thinking of something. He looked back at Song Jingchen and said, "I didn't come in a carriage. Please arrange for someone to take me on a ride."

Shen Yijia was a little unhappy, Nanfeng hadn't come back yet, and Mo Yuan was the only one at home.

I don't want Mo Yuan to stand up by herself: "Miss, the lord is a guest, the slaves and maids will send it off."

Shen Yijia glanced at Mo Yuan and Xuanyuance, and always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a while. Seeing Song Jingchen nodded, she no longer objected.

Mo Yuan went to the backyard to drive the carriage to the door, and left with Xuanyuance and Chu Feng.

"Youyi." Shen Yijia roared at the sky.

With a snap, Youichi fell from the tree.

"Is there something wrong with your prince?" Shen Yijia asked.

Yuichi:  …

"For example, like old cows to eat tender grass?"

Yuichi: What's wrong with that? Isn't this what every old man likes?

Song Jingchen picked up the jade pendant on the table. Jade is a good jade, but unfortunately his craftsmanship is not good: "He should have no malice."

He didn't just cheat Xuanyuan Ce.

Shen Yijia actually knew that Xuanyuan Ce was not malicious, but it made her feel inexplicable.

The sound of horses' hooves was especially loud in the silent night, da da da, every time it was like stepping on people's hearts.

Sitting in the carriage, Xuanyuan Ce closed his eyes and rested, when suddenly, there was a neighing sound of horses outside, and the carriage stopped abruptly.

Xuanyuance opened his eyes, Chu Feng took advantage of the situation to lift the curtain of the car, and under the night, the woman who was driving the car was fighting with a man in black.

The man in black pressed step by step, but he obviously didn't kill him, more like he was forcing the woman to make a move.

After ten or so tricks, Xuanyuan Ce seemed to confirm something, lightly buckled the wall of the car, and the man in black instantly disappeared into the night.

Mo Yuan stood still, staring blankly at the people on the carriage.

"You know Ji Luo?" Xuanyuance asked coldly.

Mo Yuan: "I don't know."

Xuanyuan Ce raised his eyebrows and decided to ask another way: "Who taught you your martial arts?"

Mo Yuan clenched her hands: "Your Highness is not the master of slaves."

The implication is that she can not answer.

Xuanyuan Ce sneered: "If this king tells the Emperor Daxia about your assassination, do you think your master will be implicated?"

"This servant does not know what the lord is talking about." Mo Yuan's hand under her sleeve moved slightly.

Xuanyuan Ce turned the jade wrench on his hand, and there were still small wounds on his finger: "She taught you to use poison, right?"

"I just don't know if you are poisoning faster or my people are faster."

Mo Yuan looked at the distance between her and the carriage, and frowned. Back then, when she fought the man in black at close range, she didn't succeed in poisoning.

She let go of her hand and said with a blank expression: "The slave does not know Ji Luo in the words of the prince. As for the assassination, the slave and the prince have no grievance or hatred, and there is no reason to do so."

"It's not good to learn, learn from that girl." Xuanyuance snorted and leaned back to the wall of the car lazily: "Have you done it, you don't have to say it, it's the king who said it."

Once the emperor knew about this, the truth would not matter, but how to calm Xuanyuan Ce's anger.

Mo Yuan knew this, and her eyes flashed with murderous intent: "What do you want?"

Xuanyuan Ce: "This king only asks you a few questions."

"Where did the person who taught you martial arts go?"

Mo Yuan: "I don't know."

The people around Shen Yijia, Xuanyuan Ce, actually sent people to check, including Mo Yuan, knowing that what she said was not a lie.

He asked again, "Why do you want to assassinate this king?"

When something happened to that girl, this person even asked the little beggar to come to him to rescue him. No matter how you looked at him, he was regarded as a friendly army.

As a result, he turned to kill him again...

When Ji Luo left, she didn't kill him, and obviously it wasn't her order.

Mo Yuan frowned, thinking of the first year she had been with the young lady.

One night, they inexplicably encountered a chase.

Afterwards, the lady found a token on those people, with the word "Ce" engraved on it.

Later, when the young lady got drunk, she learned that the young lady also had a daughter, a man named Xuanyuan Ce, and that man not only lost her young lady, but also sent someone to hunt her down...

Later, I never heard the lady mention that person, including the lady's daughter, until the lady left, she only told her to protect the little lady, but didn't tell her where to find the little lady...

Even if he guessed that Xuanyuance already knew Shen Yijia's identity, Mo Yuan didn't say anything specific, only that Xuanyuance had sent someone to hunt down her former master...

"This king sent someone to hunt her down?" Xuanyuance frowned, "What kind of token?"

Mo Yuan didn't speak.

Xuanyuance glanced at Chu Feng, Chu Feng understood, took out a token from his arms and threw it.

Mo Yuan caught it, the whole body of the token was gilded, the symbol of the holy beast unicorn, the four-clawed dragon figure was engraved on one side, and the three small characters of King Jing'an were engraved on the other side.

Except for the different words, the rest are exactly the same.

However, the token engraved with the word "Ce" is also the token of the Jing'an Palace, which is even more powerful than the one in Mo Yuan's hands.

One piece represents the people from the Jing'an Palace, almost all of Xuanyuan Ce's cronies.

The other piece can represent Xuanyuance himself.

Although Xuanyuan Ce was confident, he was not conceited, and it was impossible for him to really kill Shen Yijia's people.

So he decided to get out of the carriage.

Seeing Mo Yuan turn the carriage and leave without hesitation, Xuanyuan Ce's face turned cold little by little: "You said, who used my name to chase and kill her back then?"

"I don't know." Chu Feng actually had a guess in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

"There are not many people who can get my token." Xuanyuance sneered: "Go check."

"Yes."

...

Nanfeng drank tea at Mingxiangju all day and almost never came back.

However, he did not drink this tea for free. For example, he found that the officials in Daxia also liked tea too much, and they stayed there for a few hours.

Yaoji and 30,000 who came back to report the news together rolled their eyes, they had already discovered this.

Besides, isn't it normal for a few hours to drink tea and chat?

"No?" Shen Yijia asked.

Nan Feng shook his head: "No more."

He sat alone in the lobby all day, cup after cup of tea, and others almost regarded him as a fool.

It's good to know this.

Shen Yijia has a toothache: "Why don't you want a private room?"

Nan Feng said with a bitter face: "My subordinates also think so, but only those who hold the post can enter the box."

The old man had no hobbies in his life, except to accompany the old concubine at the mansion, he just invited a few friends to drink tea.

And those posts were all sent from the old prince's mansion, and those who could get them were either rich or expensive.

In the past, when the old princess was still seeking medical treatment, she could exchange it with precious medicinal materials, but now that Ji Yunxi is treating the old princess, this post has long been published.

"Isn't it just another place to drink tea? It's so mysterious?" Shen Yijia puffed out her cheeks: "I must be doing something shameful inside."

Song Jingchen looked at Yaoji and Sanwan, Yaoji silently took out a red cloth from his arms.

Shen Yijia took a breath, it smelled so bad.

Yaoji blushed and opened the cloth, and it was a woman's apron.

Shen Yijia:  …

"This is what we found in the junk pile." Yaoji hurriedly explained.

I rummaged through the trash and swill buckets for more than half a month. It was either leftovers or rotten leaves. It was the first time I found something for a woman, and they brought it back.

Song Jingchen glanced at Mo Yuan, Mo Yuan took the apron and put it on her nose.

After a while, she said: "There is a little dusty scent on it."

From the name, it can be heard that it is a kind of boosting drug, which is generally used more in brothels.

"How can the apron thrown out of Mingxiangju get the fragrance of dust?" Shen Yijia muttered.

And the smell can still be smelled until now. The woman wearing this apron must have been in a place containing the fragrance of dust for a long time, and it is impossible to accidentally contaminate it.

"Could it be..." Shen Yijia's eyes lit up: "Selling dog meat with sheep's heads, Mingxiangju is actually a brothel, right?"
