Chapter 174: Changes in the Court, Princes Killing Each Other

Shen Qingying responded perfunctorily: "Maybe it accidentally dropped somewhere and was picked up by Prince Lu."

Now, even if Mo Wuchen is very nervous, he realizes that something is wrong and there is a turning point!

The cabinet is full of things that Shen Qing is familiar with: the kite that Shen Qing has flown, the cat-shaped lantern that Shen Qing has carried, the small wooden sword that Shen Qing carved for the first time...

It wasn't until Shen Qing found the portraits of himself and Lu Yan that Mo Wuchen finally realized: It turned out that the white moonlight he had worked so hard to cover up for Lu Yan for so long was actually Shen Qing himself!

Mo Wuchen laughed out loud because he clearly knew that Yue Guang was his wife, but he still wanted to hide things from the past, while the other one made a big show of catching his own traitor. I have to say, you two are really playing tricks!

However, he was only angry for a moment, and Mo Wuchen calmed himself down. Although Bai had been worried for so long, his love was saved again!

As long as Shen Qing, Lu Yan and Meimei are together, no one can stop him from chasing his wife in Linjiang Tower!

Thinking about it this way, Mo Wuchen suddenly became happy again.

Lize glanced at Mo Wuchen in surprise, expressing shock at Mo Wuchen's extraordinary self-comfort ability. How could he laugh at this?

After taking a rough look at the contents of the cabinet, Shen Qing locked the cabinet again, but recovery was impossible.

He put the jade pendant back into his arms again, turned around and saw Mo Wuchen looking at him with a flattering face, "Cousin, seeing as I have done a good thing, can you do me a favor?"

Shen Qing had a gut feeling that something was wrong, so she glanced at him and said, "What?"

Mo Wuchen took out the half-moon jade pendant that belonged to Lu Yan from his arms and prayed sincerely: "Cousin, you also know that my status in my cousin's heart is not as high as yours. If he knows that I peeked at him My little secret, he will never let me go easily. Cousin, what do you think? You have seen the cabinet anyway, can you just pretend that I haven't shown up and smooth things over with my cousin?"

Shen Qing took the jade pendant from Mo Wuchen and glanced at him speechlessly, "Have you forgotten that you just went to the warehouse and took out such a large ginseng plant? Do you think I can solve this problem for you? "

Mo Wuchen turned to stone on the spot and forgot about this incident.

Shen Qing glanced at him with sympathy: "Young man, please wish yourself well."

Lize then patted Mo Wuchen on the shoulder, "Don't worry, young master Mo, I will definitely tell the master everything you have done."

Lu Yan fell asleep for a long time and did not wake up again until it was getting dark.

During this period, Lu Tingyu, who had gone shopping in person, came over to visit once. Seeing that Lu Yan was fine, he returned to the yard with peace of mind.

Because his body was already extremely weak and he lost two vials of blood all at once, Lu Yan had to recuperate for seven or eight days, and he was basically fully recovered in early July.

The first thing Lu Yan did after he recovered was to take Shen Qing to Mo Wansheng's yard to look for clues.

The small courtyard, which has not been visited for many years, is spotless. The pomegranate tree saplings that once stood have grown to the height of the eaves. The thick branches and leaves cast large shadows under the sunlight. The large rose flowers in front of the window are in full bloom, and each one welcomes them. A proud head is raised in the direction of the sun.

Everything in the courtyard seems to be prosperous, except that the owner of the small courtyard has been dead for many years.

Lu Yan frowned and then led Shen Qing towards the bedroom.

The door was opened, and a large amount of light shone into the house, illuminating everything in the house clearly.

The furnishings in the room had not changed at all from what Lu Yan remembered. Even after so many years, you could still faintly smell the bitter taste of the soup.

The two of them carefully looked around and groped around the items in the house, but found nothing out of the ordinary.

After coming out of the dormitory, Shen Qing followed Lu Yan to the piano room. In the center of the room was a lyre that looked like it had been forgotten for many years. What was carved on the surface of the piano was a phoenix perched on a sycamore tree. , lifelike.

On one side of the lyre, there is a white jade flute, and the phoenix with loving eyes at the bottom is particularly eye-catching.

The piano and flute are playing in an ensemble, and the phoenixes are dependent on each other. The once tender and beautiful scene no longer exists.

Lu Yan's face was slightly condensed, and he led Shen Qing out of the piano room and went to the small study next to the piano room.

The decoration in the small study room is simple, somewhat similar to the style of Lu Yan's study room. However, compared to the dullness of Lu Yan's study room, the colors in Mo Wansheng's small study room are obviously more vivid.

The two of them looked around the small study room, and finally stopped in front of a rabbit lantern that was almost falling apart. The rabbit's body surrounded by rice paper had turned yellow, and the red rabbit eyes had become dim, but they still remained. It is conceivable that Mo Wansheng was a lively and smart girl when she was young, but such a girl lingered on the hospital bed for ten years, and finally died in pain.

Lu Yan pursed his lips tightly, and the fingers in his sleeves subconsciously clenched into fists.

Sensing Lu Yan's strangeness, Shen Qing gently pulled his sleeve and said, "Let's go out first."

Lu Yan came back to his senses and nodded. It wasn't until he walked out of the yard for a long time that Lu Yan suddenly said: "Jiaojiao, I have the memory of my mother and concubine in my mind. She was gentle and loved to laugh. So what kind of difficulties could she let her go?" Who did she do so decisively? "

Hearing Lu Yan's increasingly hoarse voice, Shen Qing grabbed Lu Yan's fingers under his wide sleeves and comforted her softly: "Ayan, everything will come to light, and we will seek justice for your mother and concubine."

Lu Yan responded softly, his voice so dull that it was heartbreaking.

Shen Qing did not speak again, but tightened his fingers even more.

…

Since Lu Yan and Shen Qing had explored Mo Wansheng's courtyard to no avail that day, the two of them tacitly did not mention the matter for several days in a row.

Shen Qing knew that Lu Yan needed time to think about these things clearly, so Shen Qing also embroidered things at ease in the Yining Marquis's Mansion.

Lu Yan's birthday was on the Qiqiao Festival on the seventh day of the seventh month. Although Shen Qing started preparing for it half a month in advance, he still wanted to hurry up.

On the sixth day of the seventh month, Shen Qing finally prepared all the things he wanted to embroider. Just as he put them in the brocade box, Shen Yian received a shocking news from the court and the public -

The fifth prince Chu Lingyuan, who went to the area of ​​Qihe River to provide disaster relief some time ago, was assassinated on his way back to Beijing. All the guards accompanying him died on the spot. Chu Lingyuan's whereabouts were unknown, and he was suspected to have fallen off a cliff.

Upon learning of this, the emperor was furious on the spot and ordered Qi Yichuan to leave the capital immediately to find Chu Lingyuan's whereabouts. At the same time, he ordered the Dali Temple to investigate the matter strictly and all those involved were imprisoned.

For a time, the court was in a panic.

Shen Qing calmly poured a cup of tea for Shen Yian, "What do you think about this, Dad?"

Shen Yian picked up the teacup and pondered for a moment, "The fifth prince is humble and knows how to restrain his edge. He rarely makes enemies in the court. If you ask who will attack him and who can attack him, it's nothing more than those two."

Shen Qing took a sip of tea and responded, "Indeed, but no matter who did it, the sky in Shengjing will change."

After years of peace on the surface, the drama of the princes killing each other finally came.
