Brocade clothing

Chapter 219
Fang Zirui was about to cry: "This... this I don't know, I also asked him what kind of material it was made of, but the vendor just smiled mysteriously, saying that it would be worthless if I told him. At that time, Wei Chen wanted to get a special gift for the emperor to celebrate his birthday, so he stopped thinking..." If he knew it was human skin, let alone 1 taels, he would not even give it to him for nothing.

Now it's all right, the birthday gift didn't go well, but instead caused a mess.

Fang Zirui regretted it to the gut.

Fortunately, it was Yu Xiaochu who discovered it at this time, and he can still wash it clean. If someone finds out this when the emperor turns around, he will not be able to wash it clean after jumping into the Yellow River. Good guy, I gave the emperor a birthday present. A human skin lantern , This is bloody, even if he has a hundred heads, it's not enough to chop off.

Fang Zirui hated that peddler who fooled him to death, don't let him catch him, he must kill him.

Li Tianxiao was silent for a long time before looking at Chu Qing who had been silent all this time: "What do Yu Qing's family think?"

Chu Qing lowered his eyes and said: "Weichen thinks that the most important thing at this time is to find out that merchant first, he is afraid that he is the key to solving this human skin case."

Li Tianxiao said: "If I hand over this case to Yu Qing's family, are you sure about it?"

Chu Qing said: "Even if the emperor doesn't speak up, I'm afraid the humble minister will ask for his life."

"Oh?" Li Tianxiao's eyes swept over her. Not only Li Tianxiao, but Fang Zirui was also taken aback. He didn't expect that Yu Xiaochu was so interesting. punishment position.

Chu Qing's eyes fell on Fang Zirui, and then he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have just heard Mr. Fang mention 'Yinyue Tower', and I have an inexplicably ominous premonition in my heart."

The two looked at her, Fang Zirui's heart skipped a beat, Li Tianxiao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What does the Yu Qing family mean by that?"

Chu sighed softly: "Does your majesty know the last place where Princess Ayiyue of the Southern Kingdom was picked up in an accident?"

The two shook their heads, only to hear Chu Qing continue: "It's Yinyue Tower."

Li Tianxiao's stern face suddenly darkened. Fang Zirui was not stupid. Thinking of the delicate and slippery human skin like a [-]-year-old girl, his whole body twitched. Ever since he knew it was human skin, he felt that something was wrong. Who could breed this kind of skin? This kind of skin is flawless, so delicate that he never thought it would be human skin, but if this is... this is the princess Ayiyue from the southern kingdom... His legs softened and he fell directly on the ground , My whole body began to tremble...

Liu Fu was holding the human skin lamp, and his legs were so weak that he could not stand upright. Holding the lantern, he felt like a hot potato. The emperor didn't speak, he didn't have the courage to do so.

Li Tianxiao pondered for a long time before he said, "Are you sure?"

Chu lightly shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, I just have this suspicion for the time being, I have already sent someone to find out who was the one who quarreled with the princess in the end, if found, it may be a clue. However, I think that, It can also be divided into two lines, suppressing the matter for the time being, and weichen and Mr. Fang will find that vendor together, maybe this is just Weichen's guess, maybe it's not the princess."

Li Tianxiao rubbed the center of his brows with a headache. If something really happened to Princess Ayiyue, even though he was not afraid of Nanguo, he would definitely have to give her an explanation. If the murderer could not be found, he might borrow it Do not stop following this source.

He is not afraid of Nanguo, but he is afraid that Nanguo will be very unfavorable to his current situation because of its partnership with Uncle Liu or Queen Mother Liu.

"Okay, I'll leave this human skin case to Yu Qing's family, and I hope you won't disappoint me." Li Tianxiao took a deep look at Fang Zirui, who was weak-legged: "Fang Qing's family, this case is temporarily closed. Before the case is solved, you will rest at home for the time being and don't need to go to court, when the case is solved, you can come again, during this time, you will be a good student and cooperate with Yu Qing's family to solve the case, you know?"

How could Fang Zirui dare to say a word: "Yes, yes, I will do my best to help Master Yu solve the case!"

Fang Zirui breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't take off his black gauze hat directly, there is still room for maneuver, otherwise, all these years of hard work would have been in vain.

Chu lightly kowtowed and agreed, but just glanced at the human skin lantern that fell into the hands of Eunuch Liu: "Your Majesty, I still have a merciless request. Can I temporarily keep this thing in my custody? Let's see if this lantern can find any clues."

Eunuch Liu almost burst into tears: Mr. Yu, you are really a good person who rescues the suffering, he is really nervous, if the emperor asks him to guard this thing at night, he will not be able to sleep at all.

Li Tianxiao always agreed to Chu Qing's words, so he naturally had no objection: "Take it away."

After Chu Qing thanked him, he took the human skin lantern from Eunuch Liu, covered it with a red cloth, and then hugged it. There was no wave in his eyes. The courage of the other party alone made Eunuch Liu I can't admire it.No wonder the emperor valued Mr. Yu so much. Just because of the other party's fearless temperament and frankness, it proved that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the other party's heart. He couldn't help but sigh. I'm afraid that he should be more cautious towards Mr. Yu in the future. With all due respect.

Just when Chu Qing and Fang Zirui, who was like a soft-footed shrimp, came out of the imperial study, they saw a nanny next to the empress dowager asking Li Tianxiao to go to Kunning Palace, saying that the empress dowager had a severe headache and missed the emperor.

When Chu Qing walked away with Fang Zirui holding the human skin lamp, she looked back and saw Li Tianxiao in a bright yellow dragon robe, getting on a chariot and heading towards Kunning Palace.

Chu Qing looked away, looked at Fang Zirui who was far away from her, and couldn't help laughing: "Master Fang, what are you afraid of? Didn't you keep this thing at home before?"

Fang Zirui begged for mercy with horror in his eyes: "Brother Yu Xian, stop laughing at me. I'm going to be scared to death. I'm so nervous tonight. Just one more look at this thing could kill me."

Chu Qing heard that the other party had changed his title to "Xiandi", and couldn't help chuckling, but he didn't correct the other party. It seems that Liu Guojiu would not feel that he had anything to do with what he did tonight, but instead I will feel that I helped him: "But tonight it was really Xuan, I was still thinking about whether to say it or not, but if I didn't say it, in case it was discovered by others later, if the emperor put it in another I'm really uneasy about checking it in the hands of adults."

Fang Zirui is not convinced by Chu Qing now: "Yes, yes, if the emperor's people..." He seemed to have thought of something, he quickly covered his mouth, glanced quickly, and then whispered, "Your brother is still alert, this Your Majesty does not deal with His Majesty Guojiu, and I am his confidant, so if the Emperor's people are allowed to take the lead, I will definitely lose my black hat. My brother is still smart, and now the case is in the hands of my brother. All the glory and wealth from now on will be in the hands of my virtuous brother." Fang Zirui cupped his hands to Chu Qing.

Chu Qing hurried over to help, Fang Zirui glanced at the human skin lantern she was holding in her hand, took two steps back and almost fell down.

Chu Qing stopped in her tracks: "Master Fang can't do this."

Fang Zirui smiled embarrassingly: "This...Isn't it because I'm panicking..."

Chu Qing smiled: "It seems that tonight will not work, it's already late, I'm afraid your lord will be shocked, if that's the case, then I'll trouble you to go to Yinyue Tower with me tomorrow night, as for Uncle Guo There...please explain it to me."

As soon as Fang Zirui heard that he didn't want to go, he responded again and again: "Young brother has an order, just mention it. I will report to the government office tomorrow. As for Uncle Guo, Uncle Guo must know about my brother's intentions. This time it is really thanks to Xian Brother."

Chu Qing chatted with Fang Zirui for a few more words, then smiled, waved his hands, and left holding the human skin lantern.

It wasn't until Chu Qing's soft sedan left for a long time that Fang Zirui felt that he had gained some strength in his feet and was supported by his followers, so he slapped his forehead suddenly: "I forgot again..."

He forgot that the other party was a woman, but looking at the other party's face that did not change his face, he couldn't even remember that the other party was a woman, this other party was so tough... No wonder Uncle Guo trusted the other party so much, Which woman can do this to this extent?
Fang Zirui sighed, "Go to Uncle Guo's Mansion."

On the other side, Li Tianxiao was asked by the mother of Kun Ning Palace for instructions, saying that the queen mother had a severe headache and she was afraid that she was unwell, so she had sent the imperial doctor to go there. As a son of man, he could only go with the mother.

Although Li Tianxiao knew that Empress Dowager Liu might be pretending in all likelihood, he thought to himself that the other party probably wanted to know about the human skin lamp. This angered Uncle Liu Guo?Sitting on the chariot, Li Tianxiao's eyes darkened, but he didn't show it when he arrived at Kunning Palace.

When Li Tianxiao arrived, the Empress Dowager Liu was lying on the imperial couch, and Imperial Physician Xu was checking her pulse, and then prescribed a prescription, seeing Li Tianxiao hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty."

"How is the mother's health?" Li Tianxiao asked worriedly. Looking at her like this, it was really a kind and filial mother, but how could outsiders know that the two of them wished for each other's early death.

Doctor Xu said: "Your Majesty has not been sleeping well these few days. The old minister has prescribed a few prescriptions for raising the baby. As long as you take good care of it, there is nothing wrong with it."

Only then did Li Tianxiao let people go down, and sat close to Empress Dowager Liu, "Does Empress Dowager feel better?"

Empress Dowager Liu opened her eyes, saw Li Tianxiao, and patted the back of his hand: "My lord, Ai's family feels really bad."

"What's the matter with the queen mother? You should tighten your body."

"Originally it was your birthday, but... this kind of thing happened. I don't know how your uncle made it so that someone under his command sent such a taboo thing, Aijia...cough cough! " Empress Dowager Liu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and couldn't help coughing, her complexion turned pale, and she was really heartbroken.
