Chapter 75
Chapter 75
Xie Tangru forgot how he felt when he heard Shang Qingyao's words at that moment. What was obviously normal, but fell into his heart but caused waves for no reason.
It was raining again outside the window, pattering.
The weather in late autumn in Yuejing is already extremely cold.
Xie Yuan stepped into the house from the outside, his body was still a bit cold.
"My lord, I found out about Shen Yu."
The fingertips that were tapping on the window sill were retracted, and half of the cold jade-like light was hidden under the sleeves. Xie Tangru's eyes were still on the transplanted crabapple in the courtyard, as if caught in some kind of thought.
No one could understand what was going on in his heart.
Those close subordinates around him only heard today that the prince met the emperor when he was "telling fortunes" on the East Street.
Broke up unhappily.
After Jianshuang finished making tea, she closed all the open windows.
She thought to herself, perhaps because of this incident, Shizi was not very happy.
...Originally, they could tell a good story about the relationship between the monarch and his ministers.The premise is that the lies that have been painstakingly covered up have never been exposed.
"Say."
Xie Tangru said lightly.
Xie Yuan: "Our people went to Yuzhou to check Shen Yu's ancestral home. He is indeed from Yuzhou, but he didn't have this name at first. He once went south to study, and changed his name after he came back. His fiancée, that girl Qingyue, only appeared after he returned from studying in the south, and no one had seen her before."
"According to the son's order, we went to check on Xue Ciyi's whereabouts. When Shen Yu went south to study, Xue Ciyi had recuperated for a period of time in the Zhuangzi outside the city, and the time coincided."
"In addition, we haven't found out the origin of Xue Ciyi's birth mother. The concubine of the Yuzhou governor gave birth to Xue Ciyi with dystocia, and died after giving birth. All the people who served this concubine also died."
There are not many clues that can be found for old things, but for Xie Tangru, it is enough to find a thread that can be pulled out from the thousands of threads.
"Keep an eye on Xue Ciyi."
Xie Tangru ordered.
…………
"Break up in the street?" Xue Ciyi's unique voice is wrapped in the sweetness of a girl no matter what she says, "Sure enough, all emperors are the same—the most fearful thing is their own life. The first emperor is like this, and neither is his son." Exceptions."
She giggled, as if thinking of something funny.
"People in the world are not satisfied for a day. The poor want to be rich, the rich want power, and when they have power, they hate not having enough power. They want to be emperor, and after becoming emperor, they want to live forever."
"You said Shang Qingyao's wish is not to live forever, what could it be?"
The young woman standing in the shadow came out and looked at Xue Ciyi silently. If anyone else was present, they would recognize that this is Qingyue, the sweetheart who is highly skilled in medicine and admired by the deposed prince.
Xue Ciyi tilted her head: "How is the deposed prince?"
"The Gu worms are well controlled. There is no sign of waking up, and everything is still under control. The Secretary of the Ministry of Industry has already contacted the troops stationed at the border in Lingnan."
"All is ready except for the opportunity."
"Then the only thing left is Wei Guogong's son." Xue Ciyi murmured, "Speaking of which, I haven't dealt with him seriously yet."
Qingyue didn't speak.
Xue Ciyi glanced at her: "Let's go. Don't disturb the people in Duke Wei's mansion. If it wasn't impossible to escape, I wouldn't let you in at the risk of being exposed."
Saying that, Xue Ciyi threw a small white porcelain bottle to her, "Plant it in the body of the deposed prince, and he will be completely devoted to you, obey your words, and be controlled by you."
Qingyue nodded: "When do you plan to return to the clan? Which one seems to like Yu Ran more..."
Xue Ciyi interrupted her with a smile: "When I bring back Wei Guogong's son, what is Yu Ran? After all, Xie Tangru is the most legitimate in the clan."
Seeing her like this, Qingyue squeezed the porcelain bottle in her hand, and asked again: "Shen met him..."
This time Xue Ciyi became obviously impatient: "I gave Shen Yu's life to him. Although you are a fiancee in name, you should understand that what is mine is mine, and others want to get their hands on it!"
If she hadn't been too weak back then and was controlled by those old men in the clan, she wouldn't even have this marriage.
She was the one who saved Shen Yu.
Shen Yu's skin and bones, from blood to flesh, belonged to her.
Qingyue didn't dare to ask any more questions, and receded like a silent tide under the moonlight.Outside the window, the treetops and branches moved slightly.
Xie Tang cut the lanterns with downcast eyes, and after hearing the news from Xie Yuan, he couldn't help but sigh for the deposed prince.
"I thought it was a good match from heaven, but I didn't expect... the waste prince is also a poor man."
There was a little pity in his words, but he didn't know how sincere he was.
At the end, Xie Tangru said again: "It's just a Gu that can make people give up. It's interesting." He smiled slightly, "Go to the abolished prince's mansion and ask that girl Qingyue if she is willing to bear the pain and give up her love."
Xie Yuan thought to himself, the son really doesn't need to talk about the robbery so gracefully.And who is this thing for?Is it for the majesty in the palace?
And if it was really the one in the palace, Xie Yuan sincerely felt that if he wanted to obey Fang Yan, he didn't need any Gu, as long as his family was willing to save face, it was enough.
Your Majesty is easy to fool.
………………
It didn't take long for Xie Yuan to take the things back: "I didn't disturb anyone, and replaced the things with the bugs I caught from the tree. The difference in appearance is not too big."
"..." Xie Tang stared at him complicatedly for a while.
Xie Yuan looked back in confusion.
Xie Shizi laughed before looking at the worm lying quietly in the translucent bottle.About half the thickness of a finger, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is beautiful.
It is said that feeding it with blood can make the Gu planter utterly devoted to the blooded person.Xie Tangru has read a record in a Lingnan customs annals, that this kind of Gu is usually placed between male and female lovers, and one party must be sincere to the other party.
Turn wishful thinking into wishful thinking.
But what's the point of getting a puppet who can only obey?
Xie Shizi stroked his chin and thought for a while, and felt that this Gu was too restrictive and useless.If he wants someone, he can get it without this thing.
Thinking of something, he suddenly smiled, "Find a chance and send it to Shang Qingyao."
Jianshuang blessed Fushen, and did not dissuade her elder son from acting tentatively, who was clearly on the verge of death: "Yes."
………………
Day two.
"Xue Ciyi wants to see me?" Xie Tangru raised his brows, and Xie Shizi who had some guesses in his heart was not very surprised by this, but he did not expect Xue Ciyi to be so impatient.
He thought that Xue Ciyi should be able to calm down for a few more days after enduring it for so long.Or did Xue Ciyi think the time was ripe enough?
Why is Shang Qingyao's luck so bad? When the old emperor was alive, these ghosts and ghosts stayed put. Once Shang Qingyao came to power, all kinds of monsters and monsters came out.
Recalling that he was also a member of the "ghosts and snake gods", Mr. Xie dismissed this idea as if nothing had happened, and turned to Xue Ciyi's matter again.
"Let's meet then." He laughed with great interest, and it happened that he couldn't enter the palace recently, so he had to find someone to pass the time.
It's great to have a ready-made one to bump into.
