Chapter 307 People’s hearts are unpredictable

"Do you have any evidence?" Yan Jiang asked.

Tao Bi took out two letters from his arms and found them in Guo Yi's secret room.

The first letter was written by Guo Yi to Mrs. Gu. The letter mentioned that King Sheng was defeated and asked the other party to make preparations in advance. The second letter was a reply written by Mr. Gu to Guo Yi. The letter mentioned that King Sheng was dead and everything was fine. If the other party encountered difficulties in the future, he could come to him.

After reading the two letters, Ye Lanchen looked angry and ordered Yanjiang to set off for Yuzhou immediately to bring the person here so that he could interrogate him personally.

……

At noon the next day, when Yanfei was changing his shift, Lingdang came over and said a word to him before leaving, and then he went in the direction of the martial arts training ground.

As he approached the door, a voice called him from behind.

"Brother Yan, this way." Ye Lingxi hid behind a ginkgo tree and waved to him. Very few people came to the martial arts training ground. After on-site inspection, she chose a good location that was both hidden and beautiful.

After Yan Fei came over, she asked, "Brother Yan, did you and Third Uncle yesterday -" Before she could ask the next words, Yan Fei said, "They've been caught." Hearing this, Ye Lingxi looked at her. Yi Liang asked how the person was caught. Yan Fei hesitated slightly, as if he didn't expect that he still couldn't get around the problem. He said that the person was caught in a small alley, without mentioning Zixue Pavilion.

"Is it really that Jade Sword Tao Bi?" Ye Lingxi was more interested in this question.

Yan Fei nodded, glanced around, and whispered something. Ye Lingxi looked surprised. After a moment of reaction, he connected the two unrelated identities.

This Tao is indeed the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is a bit incredible when you think about it.

Thinking of Prime Minister Zhou, Ye Lingxi had another thought.

She was certain that there was something fishy about the relationship between Prime Minister Zhou and Concubine Xiao this week, but no substantial evidence had been found. Although Xiao Anzi had seen the two of them meeting alone in the Luohua Pavilion, her words were unfounded. Last time, her mother and concubine When she was setting off fireworks for her birthday on the Zhaixing Tower, she also noticed that Prime Minister Zhou glanced in the direction of Concubine Xiao twice more this time. So every time she met Prime Minister Zhou, she always felt that he was duplicitous and a cunning person. But the last time she heard her second brother say that when her imperial grandfather was still alive, Prime Minister Zhou was her father's adviser and helped him. Her father's ascent to the throne was indispensable.

Based on this calculation, her father and Prime Minister Zhou have known each other for more than ten years. If he is really a traitor, her father will not be unaware of it. However, her second brother also said that her father values ​​love more than justice. The heroes who supported her to the throne must be particularly valued. If Prime Minister Zhou is really a treacherous minister this time, I wonder if her father will be soft-hearted and open-minded?

A hand waved in front of her, and Ye Lingxi came back to his senses. Yan Fei said: "Although he is the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the whole matter may not have anything to do with Prime Minister Zhou." After thinking for a few seconds, Ye Lingxi asked He said, "Brother Yan, what do you think of Prime Minister Zhou?" Yan Fei thought about it and said, "The third uncle once said that in terms of intelligence and strategy, those in the officialdom are no match for Prime Minister Zhou, but no one is perfect. , not as transparent and open-minded as my uncle." When talking about Mr. Su's uncle, Yanfei looked a little shy.

Ye Ling Xixin asked, is Prime Minister Zhou so cunning this time? Even Su Shangshu is no match for him. If the other party is really a traitor, then wouldn't her father be in danger?!

No, she had to figure it out!

……

"Master, the princess is here." Zhu Xingguan stood outside the door and reported, then went downstairs.

Ye Lingxi stood in front of the bookshelf and browsed the scrolls on it. Zhu Xingguan came over and said, "Master is meditating. Princess, if you want to go back first, come back in an hour."

"No, I'm just going to read here." Ye Lingxi reached out and pulled out a scroll, opened it and read it. After Zhu Xingguan left, she closed the scroll and put it back. Then she pulled out the scroll next to her, opened it and read it again. After closing it, I thought to myself that all the explanations in this book are like a heavenly book, but there is nothing that is easy to understand?

After pulling out more than a dozen scrolls, she finally found one that was understandable and interesting. After standing and watching for a while, she took the scroll and walked to the futon to sit down and continue reading.

When he saw the article about the Immortal Grass, he reached out with one hand to take away the scroll. Shangguan Yuan closed the scroll, walked to the bookshelf and put it back in its original position. He turned his back to Ye Lingxi and said, "Princess is still too young. Look at the scroll above, otherwise you will have nightmares at night."

Ye Lingxi felt that the other party's tone was a bit serious, and she didn't know if it was because she had taken his things without permission. "Princess, is she here to tell fortunes?" Shangguan Yuan asked after sitting down.

Ye Lingxi nodded.

"Weichen made an exception for the princess last time. Please forgive me for not being able to help the princess this time." Shangguan Yuan apologized.

"This matter is very important." Ye Lingxi said firmly with firm eyes.

Shangguan Yuandao: "Please let the princess know clearly."

Ye Lingxi looked around and whispered, "I want to know whether a person is a loyal minister or a traitor."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Yuan smiled.

"Sir, why are you laughing? What's so funny about this." Ye Lingxi was a little angry, feeling as if the other party was laughing at her childishness.

Shangguan Yuan apologized and asked, "Princess, do you think this minister is loyal or traitorous?"

After Ye Lingxi stared at the face that was neither sad nor happy for a while, he said, "If I could tell fortunes, I could figure out what it was."

Shangguan Yuandao said: "The most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart. Even though I have calculated hexagrams for so many years, I dare not say that I can see through the human heart. What you hear may not be false, what you see may not be true, what is true is false, what is false is false, what is false is true. , we can only rely on the princess to distinguish it with her heart."

Ye Lingxi lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that by the time I see clearly, it will be too late."

"Can I ask the princess a question?" Shangguan Yuandao said.

Ye Lingxi nodded.

"Is the Dao one foot higher, or is the devil one foot higher?" Shangguan Yuan said.

Ye Lingxi thought about it for a while, and suddenly a light came to his mind, like an enlightenment, and he suddenly became enlightened, "Thank you for your advice, sir."

A few days later, Yanjiang took Mr. Gu to the capital. A carriage was waiting outside the city gate. When the carriage and horses came over, Mrs. Su lifted the curtain and prepared to get out of the carriage. Yan Jiang shook her head slightly, and Mrs. Su lowered the curtain and sat back in the carriage.

When the carriage that Mr. Gu was riding in drove over, Mrs. Su opened the curtain and watched the carriage pass by. She couldn't help but call her father. The curtain on the opposite side moved, but still no one showed up.

Ye Lingxi stood on the city tower and saw a group of carriages and horses approaching. In the telescope, he saw Yan Jiang riding a horse at the front. The person in the carriage behind should be Su Shi's grandfather, Mr. Gu.

When the carriage and horses were still some distance away from the palace gate, she came down from the tower and went to find a good place to hide outside the royal study.

When Yanjiang brought Old Mrs. Gu over, Ye Lingxi quietly poked his head out and took a look. He saw that the latter's temples were gray and his steps were a little staggering, but his body seemed to be quite strong.
