The punishment of the female imperial court

Chapter 52 Uneasy, Suspicious Person

The Jiandu Hall of the Duke of Qi's mansion is a forbidden place in the mansion of the Duke of Qi, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter or leave without authorization.

At this moment, it was time to light the lamps, and there were bursts of suppressed coughing sounds from inside, making the lights uneasy.

"Young master, it's better to go to the suburbs of Beijing earlier."

Yao An handed over a bowl of steaming winter pear tea, and looked at the memorial to Gao Lei on the case, feeling a little distressed.

The weather has been changeable in the past two days, and the young master's illness is getting worse and worse.The past two days have become so serious that even the strength to go to court has been lost. Worried about being spotted by those old officials, they have been on leave for several days.However, trifles continued in the court, and those old foxes didn't know if they were probing deliberately, and the number of memorials was more and more day by day.

"I can't finish reading this memorial, but your body."

Another cough interrupted Yao'an's chatter.

"No problem," Wang Song let out a long sigh of relief, his blushing face was suffocated due to coughing, which gave him a little more mortal breath.

Yao An made up his mind that he must find a time tomorrow to find Yu Qiansi and ask her to persuade the young master well.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a familiar voice from outside.

"Yixiang! Where are the people? Where have they all gone!"

It is Yuqiansi.

Hearing Yu Qiansi's voice, Wang Song paused the pen in his hand, forcibly held back the pain in his throat, picked up the bowl of winter pear tea, and drank it spoonful by spoonful.

Seeing this, Yao An was indescribably happy.

"Miss Yu must have known about your recent situation and came to visit you!" She quickly opened the door and stood on the porch facing Yu Qiansi.

"Miss Yu, the young master is here."

Yu Qian hurriedly walked a few steps, and when she saw that it was Yao An, not Yi Xiang, she became even more anxious.

"Where's Yixiang?"

Yao An was taken aback, wasn't it to visit the young master?

When Wang Song in the study heard this, he put down the tea bowl and said calmly, "I asked him to go out of Beijing to help me."

Yuqiansi didn't care about anything else, pushed away Yao'an and went straight into the room.

"Young master, how can you let him leave the capital?"

When the saint succeeded to the throne, the court situation was unstable and chaotic.Qi Guogong's wife, Mrs. Lin, supported the court with one hand.

Unavoidably, the courtiers were worried that the government of Qi State had too much power, and they were also worried that someone would take the opportunity to cause chaos.She ordered all the generals to dismiss their troops and private soldiers.He even took the lead in disbanding the trilogy of Duke Qi's mansion, leaving only two teams of ten people in the mansion for daily patrol.

Because of the reputation of the Duke of Qi's mansion among the generals, please write a letter, the Duke of Qi's mansion will never communicate with the generals, even the 20-member bodyguard will never step away from the Duke of Qi's mansion, at most two people are allowed to escort each time People from the palace travel between the yamen in the capital.

Therefore, even if Wang Song's status is detached, he only has two personal guards to protect him in his daily visits.

Yixiang is very skilled and is responsible for protecting Wang Song's safety, while Yao'an knows some food therapy and is good at dealing with people, and is responsible for trivial matters around Wang Song.

Wang Song naturally noticed the abnormality.

"what happened?"

It had been a long time since he had seen Yu Qiansi lose her composure like this, and even half a month ago when she had clues to the old case, she was only at a loss for a moment.

Yuqiansi knelt and sat opposite the table, staring at him fixedly, and asked word by word: "Young master, half a month ago, during the Huachao Festival, did you buy a sachet at Lingyun Pavilion?"

Sachet?

Yao An looked bewildered, what did the young master buy that thing for?
Yuqiansi was originally worried that he would not be able to remember clearly for too long, so he helped him remember.There is still some expectation in my heart, hoping that he will answer "no".

But Wang Song's reaction after listening made her even more at a loss.

"Young master, you... have you bought it?"

Wang Song pondered for a moment, then reached out to open the hidden compartment under the table, and took out a sachet from it.

"You mean this? I passed by Renzheng Square that day and saw a woman in a strange dress selling phoenix dance embroidery. I thought it was novel, so I bought one."

At the moment when she saw the sachet, Yu Qiansi seemed to have lost all her strength and sat down on the ground.

The uneasiness and panic in my heart surged like a tide.

Subconsciously, she felt that she had missed something important, but she couldn't concentrate on thinking. The hands that were originally supporting the edge of the table case turned white because of the tight grip on the table case.

Wang Song looked away from Yu Qiansi's hand and asked, "But what's wrong with this sachet?"

Yuqian said dejectedly: "There is not much peace in Beijing recently, I am just worried about the safety of the young master."

Wang Song raised his eyebrows slightly, picked out the memorial of Dali Temple and read it carefully, then he understood why Yu Qiansi came in such a hurry.

He also immediately understood the intention of Dali Temple to push the case to the Criminal Division.

Unexpectedly, after not going to court for a few days, this group of people will focus on the criminal justice again.

Thinking of her panic-stricken appearance just now, Wang Song's heart warmed a little.The hot tea he had just drunk also had an effect, and the pain and itchiness in his throat eased a bit.

"Are you worried that if I also bought this sachet, I will also be entangled by this 'ghost'?"

There is a simple joke in the language, and the emphasis is placed on the word "evil ghost", but the original intention is to comfort.

"Master Yu, who has investigated countless cases, is also worried about what the evil spirits say? Or is he not sure about catching the murderer?"

After talking too much in one breath, Wang Songfu picked up the tea bowl again. This time he didn't use a spoon, and took a sip directly from the rim of the bowl. The sweet warmth of pear juice filled his throat, and the warm and comfortable feeling lasted for a long time. Relaxed and comfortable.

But Yu Qiansi was not in the mood to joke with him, and raised her eyes seriously and said: "In any case, the young master should stay in the mansion these days and don't walk around at will."

"Okay." Wang Song was kind, and agreed very readily, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, as if the discussion was not about his own personal safety.

She sized Wang Song up for a moment, and after confirming that his eyes were sincere and didn't put off her, she turned her head and said to Yao'an, who was in a cloud of mist, "Trouble Yao'an, I will trust Yixiang to come back tomorrow, and the mansion will also strengthen it." Guard, don't relax for a moment."

"Can't leave Beijing?"

Yao An didn't know what the two of them were fighting just now, and was very surprised to hear Yu Qiansi's exhortation. Just as he was about to explain the young master's old illness, he caught a glimpse of the young master's indifferent eyes, and quickly lowered his head to read promise.

Yu Qiansi glanced at the table full of memorials, and then urged: "In late spring and early summer, the climate is changeable, the young master is tighter, these things, if you can not look at them. If you can't, just pick up some important ones and look at them." It's done."

"it is good."

It was a promise with a smile again, with a slightly longer ending, with some inexplicable indulgence and comfort.

But for some reason, hearing it made her even more disturbed.

He got up and said: "I just left in a hurry, there are still many things that have not been dealt with, young master rest early, I will definitely catch the murderer as soon as possible, so you can rest assured."

After finishing speaking, after repeatedly telling Yao An to be more careful, he left the Duke's Mansion as if fleeing.

She couldn't calm down until she stood outside the Duke's mansion and saw Shang Fu, who had been squatting on the side of the road for a long time, walking towards her.

He touched his heart, trying in vain to suppress the anxiety in it.

The wind blowing with the heat of early summer makes the troubles in my heart whirl like dead leaves.

This feeling of upset, after seeing the sachet with his own eyes just now, gradually turned into a torrential rain and strong wind, screaming and churning in his heart.

The last time her mother was poisoned, she was also in the same panic.

She buried her face in her palms, but she could still feel the trembling of her hands.

Why is it that after so long, I am still so useless?Can't even do the simplest control of emotions
If things go on like this, how about investigating cases and protecting others?
"If the heart is ice-clear, the sky will fall without surprise. All changes are still fixed, and the spirit is happy and calm.

Untouched by dust and dirt, untouched by vulgar appearances, empty and peaceful, nothing at all. "

When Shang Fu limped over, he only saw Yu Qiansi covering his face with his hands, as if he was muttering something silently.Then he shrugged deeply and gradually relaxed.

Only then did he dare to step forward and ask tentatively, "Master Yu, are you alright?"

When Yu Qiansi put down her hands, [-]% to [-]% of her previous expression had returned to her face.With a smile on her face, she said calmly: "Thank you, Sir Shaoqing, for your concern. I wonder if this is Master Shaoqing?"

"Just now people from Dali Temple came to report that they found traces of the suspicious person outside Ningguo Gong's mansion. The man lingered outside the side gate of Zhou Mansion for a long time, and he was still drawing ghostly symbols on the wall. He seemed to have some kung fu. They were worried that he still had accomplices, and arresting him rashly would startle the snake, so they came to ask what to do. I wanted to ask you to show me, but I saw that you came to the Duke of Qi's mansion without looking back, so I had to follow. "

Yu Qian's wanton entry into the Duke's Mansion of the State of Qi is naturally like entering the land of no one.But he was different, as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by the person at the door with a stern face, so he had to squat on the side of the road and wait until his legs were numb.

I don't know what happened inside, but I saw the beauty come out in a daze, could it be that she had a quarrel with the young man?

Wouldn't that be a good time for him to take advantage of it?Therefore, ignoring his numb legs, he limped over to care.

"Master Yu, are you restless? Do you want to rest?"

The strong wind blew up again, but this time, it made her Lingtai clear.

She turned her head to look at Shang Fu with a concerned face, and asked, "Master Shaoqing, if you hate someone very much, would you still keep her things?"

Shang Fuyuan was still racking his brains to figure out how to ingeniously smile the beauty, but he was caught off guard by this endless question.

"what?"

Tilting his head and frowning, he was far from the handsome appearance who wanted to please the girl.

"It's going to rain." Yu Qiansi raised her hand to wipe the wind, smiled lightly, her eyes were shining like stars, half of the firelight cast by the lantern in front of Duke Qi's mansion surrounded her, as if she was shining.

"Let's go," Yu Qiansi smiled resolutely, "Go and help you catch this suspicious person first."
