Chapter 866 Take Care of Her
Chen Xin sorted out the classics needed to compile the history of the country in the Imperial Academy. Since the incident with King Yu, although the emperor did not explicitly blame him, but if Li Xi had been by his side all the time, the overt and secret exclusion from the court would have He could feel it, as if to say that his official career had come to an end.

Thinking of today's morning, Chen Xin couldn't help sighing, he didn't know what happened to Li Xiruo, since that day, he had never heard from Li Xiruo again, he felt a little guilty, but secretly rejoiced He somehow felt that with Li Xiruo's ability, he would definitely be able to escape this catastrophe, but if he was discovered at that time, he didn't know what kind of catastrophe he would face.

Chen Xin was turning around with the book in his arms when Xiao Xi came over and knocked the things in his arms to the ground, then walked away with a cold snort.

Chen Xin frowned, and Xiao Xi heard Xiao Xi say: "Some people bring the murderer with them, but they still refuse to reveal her hiding place. Such a crime of covering up should have been taken to the prison for torture."

Chen Xin smiled instead of anger: "Looking at Mr. Xiao's determined look, could it be that he knows where the suspect is hiding? If this is the case, please report to the emperor quickly, and be careful that the emperor will punish you for concealing and covering up."

Xiao Xi was turned back by Chen Xin, so he shook his sleeves angrily, and suddenly laughed when he thought of something: "I haven't congratulated Mr. Chen on becoming a son-in-law, but it's just that Mr. Chen has to work hard. I heard that Princess Yicheng's appearance is ruined. The medicine stone is ineffective, and the son-in-law can't take concubines at will, I'm afraid Mr. Chen will face a shameless face every day for the rest of his life."

Of course Chen Xin also knew about this. Yicheng is the daughter of Concubine Rong. Ever since the death of King Yu, Concubine Rong was greatly stimulated and went crazy all day. When Yicheng went to take care of her, Concubine Rong thought she was the one who killed her. He killed his son, broke the teacup, and cut Yicheng's face twice with the fragments. Because the wound was too deep, even if he applied medicine again, it would leave a scar.

The emperor was going to decree to rescind her marriage contract with Chen Xin, but unexpectedly, Yicheng got hurt in the face, so he had no intention of rescission. After all, Yicheng is what she is now, and she still wants to marry a good husband, I'm afraid it will be difficult .

"Xiao Xi, do you have nothing to do?"

Xiao Xi was taken aback by the voice behind him, turned around, and saw that it was Gu Chongchao, who was the number one scholar in the past three years, and now he is the editor of the Imperial Academy, responsible for compiling the history of the country.

Xiao Xi listened to Gu Chongchao speaking for Chen Xin, but he was unable to refute because of the officials, so he had to walk away with a sullen face. Seeing this, Chen Xin didn't want to cause trouble at this juncture, so he knelt down and picked up the book.

Gu Chongchao watched and also helped Chen Xin. Chen Xin was a little surprised. This Gu Chongchao was a fifth-rank editor and was about to be promoted to a fourth-rank Shaofu. He was different from them who were editors of the sixth rank. Now he took the initiative to show his favor But Chen Xin couldn't figure out why.

Gu Chongchao didn't seem to notice that Chen Xin looked at him strangely, and asked Chen Xin self-consciously: "I heard that you were there when King Yu's body was found that day."

Chen Xin nodded slightly, and Gu Chongchao asked: "Is that really what a woman named Li Xiruo did? Did you see other suspicious people?"

Chen Xin stood up: "I don't know what happened, Mr. Gu asked the wrong person."

Gu Chongchao smiled: "I believe in your character, and naturally I also believe that your friend would not do this, but if she really did not do it, she should cooperate with the criminal department to investigate this matter clearly, instead of fleeing outside. It's not doing her any good or you."

Chen Xin's face changed. If Li Xiruo went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, even if she didn't do it, he would be tortured.

Chen Xin looked at Gu Chongchao with a smirk: "It's a pity that I don't know where she is, otherwise I can tell her your advice."

When Liu Yusheng came from the outside, he saw Gu Chongchao returning the two or three books he had picked up to Chen Xin, turned around and left.Liu Yusheng came up and gave his hand and asked, "Lord Gu asked you something just now. I heard that he was always cold and unkind in the Imperial Academy, but now he is kind to you."

Chen Xin was even more vigilant when he heard this: "He asked me about King Yu, and now the emperor has fallen ill because of this matter, and everyone in the government and the public can't wait to get rid of this matter, but he likes to get to the bottom of it."

Liu Yusheng thought of the gossip he had heard elsewhere, and said to Chen Dao: "It's not surprising, I heard that in the early years, Dong Yuzhen, the concubine of King Yu, and Gu Chongchao were a golden couple, and Gu Chongchao won the first prize three years ago. Originally wanted to marry Dong Yuzhen as the No. [-] Scholar, but Wang Gulin still disliked his low status and thought that he would not be able to enter the cabinet in this lifetime, so he turned around and married Dong Yuzhen to King Yu."

Liu Yusheng put the classics on several cases: "At that time, on the night of King Yu's wedding, Gu Chongchao was drunk at the mansion and did not go to court for three whole days. I am very unhappy, and it has not changed until now. Now that King Yu is dead and Dong Yuzhen is a new widow, it is not impossible for the two of them to rekindle their old relationship."

Chen Xin squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Chongchao.

After work in Youshi, Chen Xin paid attention to Gu Chongchao's every move, saw that he had packed up his things and was about to leave, so he immediately followed behind him quietly.

As soon as he left the long street, Chen Xin saw Gu Chongchao walking on another street, not returning home in a carriage. He was getting suspicious, so he was pulled aside. He was startled, and looked at Lin Shanghe Li Xiruo appeared in front of him wearing a veiled hat.

After he was shocked, he felt sad, thinking that Li Xiruo had been with Lin Shang these days.

Li Xiruo lifted the veil in front of her eyes and asked Chen Dao: "They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?"

Chen Xin shook his head when he heard this, and put out his hand to put down the soap gauze: "Now the streets and alleys are covered with your portraits, you have to be careful everywhere."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Shang: "It will take some time to find the real culprit who killed King Yu, Lin Shang, take her out of the capital first, now everyone wants a reward, she waits It's too dangerous in the capital."

Lin Shang shrugged: "That's exactly what I meant, but Miss Li insisted on staying, saying that if she leaves, the emperor will definitely take his anger out on you."

Chen Xin was moved, he owed Li Xiruo too much, if not for her decisiveness that day, he would be the one who was arrested today.

He said to Li Xiruo: "The emperor has no evidence, and he has nothing to do with me, but you are different. In order to help me lure Yicheng away, you threw King Yu's body down. killed you."

Li Xiruo smiled contemptuously under the soapy gauze, no one has this ability now, she asked Chen Dao: "I saw you just now, you seem to be following someone?"

Chen Xin thought about what he had discovered today, and said, "Gu Chongchao had a relationship with Dong Yuzhen before, and the two were forced to separate. He kept asking me about you today, and he didn't return home after work. I felt strange, so I followed him. come over."

Chen Xin took a look outside, Gu Chongchao didn't know where to go as long as they were talking.

But Li Xiruo looked into the distance: "This street goes straight down to Changde Street. If I guessed correctly, he is going to find Dong Yuzhen."

The three hurriedly followed, and saw Gu Chongchao standing anxiously at the back door of Prince Yu's Mansion, as if waiting for someone.

The people inside only opened a gap, and said to Gu Chongchao: "I have already said, don't come to me again, otherwise it will be difficult for not only the two of us, but also our two families."

"King Yu is dead now. After the turmoil of this incident, we can still be together. I am about to be promoted to the fourth rank. At my age, no one can jump two ranks. Wang Gulin still What reason can you refuse my marriage proposal?"

He grabbed the hand of the person inside the door, but Dong Yuzhen shook him off: "The prince has not yet passed the funeral, we have an affair, what do you make the emperor think, I will not stop you if you want to die, but I will not." With you."

Just as Dong Yuzhen was about to close the door, Gu Chongchao resisted and whispered to her: "We are already like grasshoppers on a string, we will prosper and we will all be destroyed. Apart from me, do you have any other choice?"

Dong Yuzhen bit her lips tightly, her strength to reach the door gradually weakened, but Gu Chongchao took advantage of it and entered the backyard.

Lin Shang opened his eyes wide, unable to believe the scene in front of him: "What did they say just now, Dong Yuzhen really let him in, this Prince Yu is still alive."

If the emperor knew about this, he might be so angry that he would fall on the dragon couch again.

Chen Xin looked at Li Xiruo: "Is it possible that the two of them killed King Yu together in order to stay together?"

"But if they kill people, we have no grievances with them. Why would they think of blaming us and joining forces with Fu Wanying?"

What's more, the forbidden technique she found in Fu Wanying's body was obviously done by Taoist Jia. She had doubts in her heart when she heard that Taoist Jia was killed by King Yu.Although Taoist Jia is a human being, he still has 200 years of Taoism, and he was not killed by a mortal so easily. Now that he has sealed Fu Wanying's mind, he must be trying to hide some secret. With his character of revenge, King Yu was like this For him, he came back and killed King Yu, and it would make sense to blame him.

Li Xiruo said to Chen Dao: "You should keep an eye on Gu Chongchao for the past two days to see if there is any other movement from him."

Chen Xin nodded and looked at Li Xiruo: "What about you, if you continue to walk on the street, you will be spotted soon. 1000 taels of gold is not a small amount, and the emperor doesn't care about life or death. Money comes to desperately."

Li Xiruo smiled: "Don't worry, I have my own measure. I have to find another person. Only by finding him can this case be solved."

Li Xiruo put on the veil and walked forward. Chen Xun looked at her back and turned to Lin Shang: "Take care of her."

Now that he has been given a marriage by the emperor to Yicheng, he feels that he can't give Li Xiruo a title, so he hopes that Li Xiruo can have a good home.
