After rebirth, Her Royal Highness is a black lotus flower

Chapter 317 Is He Really Dead?
The two uncles and nephews were chatting about family affairs while playing chess in the palace.

Although it had been half a year since he had played against each other, King Qi still faintly noticed that this niece's chess style was a little less wanton and capricious than before, but a little more calm.

King Qi couldn't help raising his eyes to look at the niece in front of him who seemed to have changed a lot, "Why do you want to come to me?"

Shen Qianzhao pursed his lips and put a black piece on the chessboard, "I just said it, I just came to see how the emperor's uncle is doing."

Shen Qianzhao's obviously insufficient explanation, but King Qi didn't believe it. If she said that it was just a courtesy between uncles and nephews, she should have talked about the reason for this trip after sitting down for so long now It's over.

This niece is very much like the emperor's brother. She does not go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. She has a harmless smile on everything. She always waits until you let go of your guard before asking for anything.

King Qi had a clear smile, and his voice was gentle and gentle, "Speak."

Chen Xiang curled up, and Shen Qianzhao raised his eyes to look at King Qi in front of him. His eyes could always see through many of his little thoughts.

The tall and straight demeanor like pine and bamboo on his body is completely natural, and it lacks a bit of royal momentum, but it cannot be underestimated.

There is a bit of casual elegance in every gesture.

Shen Qianzhao couldn't help but think that rumors about this uncle have been circulating in the market. His temperament and appearance are as gentle as a breeze, but his temperament is free and easy, and he treats people and things with warmth. Even she has never been in this uncle's usual smile. See any attempt to do otherwise.

He is a gentle person by nature.

But it was such a person who broke into the harem that year and threw one of the imperial father's concubines into the pond in the cold winter months.

"My niece recently heard some anecdotes about more than ten years ago, and she was a little curious, but my father just released my confinement a few days ago. I dare not ask him, so I want to come to the emperor's uncle to listen." Shen Qianzhao said. His pair of peach blossom eyes were curved, looking straight at King Qi without any timidity.

King Qi could not help but smile, "What do you want to know?"

He thought, most likely it was something about the emperor's brother in the past, or about the emperor's wife.

When this niece was very young, she often pestered herself to ask these questions.

Shen Qianzhao touched his chin with his fingertips, "One of my father's friends more than ten years ago seems to be called Yu Zheng. I wonder if the emperor knows?"

King Qi's fingertips, which were holding the white piece slowly, stopped on the top of the chessboard, paused for a long time, and finally fell down with a "click".

"This person is the former second prince of the Western Dynasty. He has been dead for more than ten years. Where did you hear about this person?"

King Qi's tone seemed plain, but Shen Qianzhao could sense something serious from it. It seemed that Uncle Huang really knew something about Yu Zheng.

Shen Qianzhao thought for a while, then said slowly, "The Governor Song of Dongchang was seriously injured and poisoned. I don't know if the emperor knows about this?"

A trace of complexity flashed across King Qi's eyes, "I heard, why, did you hear about this man from Dongchang?"

Shen Qianzhao shook his head, "My niece found out that the poison poisoned by the governor of the Song Dynasty was not owned by the Jin Dynasty. After reading the ancient books, I found that it seemed to be poisonous, and the situation was very similar to a strange poison from the Western Dynasty, so I checked it. , discovered that more than ten years ago, Yu Zheng, the second prince of the Western Dynasty, had visited our court."

"Is he really dead?"

Shen Qianzhao's explanations and questions can be regarded as dispelling some of the scruples in King Qi's heart about the past, and then he opened his lips and said, "That happened 18 years ago. Yu Zheng is just and chivalrous. I'm not a rat, so your father and I hit it off with him."

"Back then, news came from the Western Dynasty that the King of the Western Dynasty was seriously ill. He left overnight with the mission, but never returned to the Western Dynasty. Afterwards, the eldest prince who was originally a side concubine succeeded to the throne. , and visited me several times to search for news about Yu Zheng."

"Whether he is dead or not, no one actually knows, but if he is alive, even if he has a suspicion with Song Yu, he is definitely not the one who poisoned Song Yu."

Although the Western Dynasty was good at poisonous Gu, Yu Zheng was an upright person, and the most contemptible thing in his life was such acts as poisoning.

King Qi said this because he thought that this niece suspected that Yu Zheng was not dead, and that she was the one who poisoned Song Yu.

But what he said was all the news that Shen Qianzhao already knew. What she wanted to know more was whether Yu Zheng had someone he liked during his time in Dajin, and whether there was any possibility of leaving an heir.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Uncle Huang, did he have a favorite girl in Dajin back then?"

King Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled suddenly, "Why didn't I realize that you are still curious about these things before?"

I also feel that the little girl in front of me is indeed no longer the little girl she used to be.

Shen Qianzhao blinked, with a bit of cunning in her eyes, "Every girl will be curious, does the emperor know?"

The little girl acted like a baby, even King Qi, who was used to it, couldn't stand it anymore, with a smile on her face, "I do know, but the girl didn't have much to do with him, but Song Yu."

As he said that, he thought of other things, and said, "If you go outside and ask about Song Yu, you can probably find out something about him when he was young."

When King Qi said this, he stopped talking.

The people of the past have left, so why mention these old things.

The Sri Lankan has passed away, and no one will pursue it.

However, thinking of these, suddenly brought him back to 18 years ago.

That year, they were all in their early twenties, chatting over wine and talking to the moon, which can be described as reckless and unrestrained.

But now, things have changed.

Shen Qianzhao blinked, from these bits and pieces of news, it seems to have heard a bitter scene between three people?
She looked at King Qi suspiciously, and found that there seemed to be fascination and regret on his face. She wanted to ask more, but she also found that he really didn't want to say more, so she had to give up.

At the end of a game of chess, King Qi defeated Shen Qianzhao by one and a half.

Looking at this seemingly evenly matched chess game, Shen Qianzhao couldn't help but muttered in his heart: scheming.

It was obvious that he had been giving way to himself all the time, playing with himself, and finally when he fell into a trap, he began to encircle and suppress.

No wonder father and uncle haven't played chess for so many years.

Shen Qianzhao thought of Shen Qianmu, the emperor's brother's chess skills were taught by the emperor's uncle, so he should avoid it in the future so as not to bump into it stupidly.

King Qi leaned against the door with a smile on his face, watching his niece lead the little palace lady away, Shen Qianzhao looked back from time to time, and he even raised his hand and waved, like a good elder.

After seeing off Shen Qianzhao, he quickly went back to the studio, carefully took out the picture of a beauty from under the drawing paper, rested his fingertips on the face for a while, his beautiful eyes were misty, endlessly lingering, and the corners of his lips curled up with a touch of beauty. The smile of the banished fairy
In the next moment, he picked up the inkstone next to him, and poured all the remaining ink on the picture of the beauty until he couldn't see it anymore, his heart completely fell silent.

　King Qi: Who hasn't been young yet...
