Chapter 1257

After listening to Shen Anhe's words, Sheng Xi raised her eyes and looked at him: "What's the news?"

Shen Anhe lowered his eyes slightly, then raised his eyes and said, "The King of Wuchang is no longer alone."

Sheng Xi raised his eyebrows, and based on the information he had previously obtained, he gave a guess: "He has secretly voted for the fifth prince, right?"

Shen An and Gouchun nodded: "Yes, it seems that you have found out a lot of information." He couldn't help but frowned again, and then said, "The King of Wuchang once swore to the late emperor that the Wuchang Palace will swear allegiance to the emperor to the death. It's a pity. , this oath has been fed to the dogs before a generation has passed."

"Why did he do this?" Sheng Xi asked, "As far as I know, King Wuchang is not currently serving in the court and does not hold any real power. He is just an idle prince."

An idle prince who once swore allegiance to the emperor. With such a background, he would be safe even if he did encounter disputes.

Shen Anhe helped him clear up his doubts: "The King of Wuchang did this because he was caught."

Sheng Xi looked curious and asked, "What's the handle?"

Shen Anhe glanced at her, the eager "Say it quickly, say it quickly" in his eyes made him want to laugh.However, this was a bit embarrassing to talk about, so Sheng Xi waited for a while before hearing him say: "The King of Wuchang once had an incest relationship with his daughter-in-law."

Sheng Xi's eyes widened when he heard this, and he blurted out: "Who is Princess Qingyue?"

"Well, Princess Qingyue is not his granddaughter, but his daughter."

Sheng Xi: "...This is really, tsk tsk!"

Even though she thought quickly, she didn't expect this trick to be so explosive.

She looked at Shen Anhe and asked him, "Does the Emperor know this news?"

Shen Anhe shook his head: "I just got this news and haven't reported it yet. But..." Shen Anhe pursed his lower lip as he spoke, "I guess the emperor does not allow anyone to smear the clan."

"Yes, the royal family is all about face." Sheng Xi nodded, and after thinking about it, he suddenly asked, "Usually the insiders have been silenced about such secret information, right? How did you know about it?"

Shen Anhe said: "They were indeed silenced, but some people were lucky enough to survive."

"Who?" Sheng Xi asked.

Shen Anhe replied: "The former coachman of King Wuchang."

Sheng Xi: "...don't tell me, they were in, um, the car when they had sex?" The car was shaking!awesome!

Shen Anhe: "..."

He pressed his eyebrows helplessly, then raised his hand and tapped Sheng Xi's forehead, and said with a smile: "What are you thinking about in your mind all day long?"

Sheng Xi grabbed the sharp-jointed finger and looked at Shen Anhe with bright eyes: "Ms. sir, actually, this..."

"Shut up!" Shen Anhe interrupted Sheng Xi directly, his ears turning red.

Sheng Xi blinked her eyes, looked at him innocently and said, "Ms. sir, where are you thinking? You can't be, ah, I am the purest person in the world. What I just wanted to say is that this kind of thing is not uncommon. .So, where are you thinking about this?"

Seeing the narrow light flashing in the eyes of the woman in front of him, Shen Anhe couldn't help but sigh.

This woman clearly did it on purpose!
"Ahem, okay, this question has been answered, do you have any other questions?" Shen Anhe decided to change the subject if Sheng Xi said something "appalling" again.Sheng Xi pursed her lips and glanced at her husband, who was snickering like an animal that had eaten a chicken.

After the teasing was successful, she gave up when she saw that it was good, and followed Shen Anhe's wishes and asked him again: "Is he the mastermind behind the murder of the fourth prince?"

Shen Anhe tried his best to make the redness behind his ears dissipate, and said with a serious face: "Probably not. Although not, from the current evidence, it seems that he was involved in this matter, but the evidence is insufficient. The emperor means that since he wants to investigate, then We need to investigate thoroughly."

Sheng Xi thought of King Wuchang's status as a solitary minister. If she were Emperor Qiwen, such a solitary minister would definitely not be retained.

A lonely minister who has second thoughts, who knows when he will stab you in the back.

Suddenly, Sheng Xi thought of a question and said, "So, the so-called marriage proposal by King Wuchang is actually trying to bring the Sheng family into the game?"

Shen Anhe was noncommittal and just said: "As far as I know, the Qingyue Princess really likes Xiaoyuan."

Sheng Xi: "..."

After a moment, she said: "What kind of bad luck did Xiaoyuan get?"

In any case, the news Shen Anhe told her today was very useful, at least it opened another way for her.

Not to mention that Sheng Xi and Shen Anhe continued to search for the murderer behind the kidnapping of the fourth prince, but Pan Can called it a day and returned to Sheng Mansion from Ying'an Hall.

At first, it was like normal, nothing happened, until she stopped in front of a snack shop to buy some snacks to go home, and suddenly realized that she was being followed.

She didn't dare to be careless and didn't buy any more snacks. She walked faster and wanted to go home as soon as possible.

But the person who was following her made up his mind to block her today. Seeing that she wanted to run away, he ignored her and stood out from the crowd, quickly blocking her in an alley.

Pei Can looked at the people blocking the exits on both sides of the alley and asked coldly: "Who are you? Why are you following me? Do you know who I am?"

The man in the block didn't speak, but another sharp voice came from a carriage that suddenly stopped outside the alley.

"Who am I? Don't you know me?" Princess Qingyue got off the carriage, her eyes filled with hatred fell on Pei Can opposite her, and she sneered, "Why, you want to show off to me as the shopkeeper of Ying'an Hall?" Whose identity is this? Haha, a mere untouchable, but I don’t know where he got his shamelessness from!"

Pan Can looked at Princess Qingyue, who had an unkind expression, and frowned tightly: "Princess Qingyue, may I ask why you stopped me?"

"How presumptuous!" Princess Qingyue's eyes stern when she heard this, "You don't kneel down when you see me, but you are still so arrogant. You deserve to be beaten!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a maid behind her quickly passed her and walked towards Pei Can.

Pei Can subconsciously took a few steps back. When he turned his head, he realized that he had no way to escape.

Princess Qingyue raised her chin and looked at Pei Can sarcastically, with no trace of hatred in her eyes.

Seeing the maid getting closer, Pei Can suddenly asked Princess Qingyue: "May I ask Princess, why are you doing this to me?"

"Ha!" Princess Qingyue sneered, "Why do I treat you like this? Don't you know?"

Pei Can naturally knew, but she still had to ask clearly.

Princess Qingyue obviously wanted to humiliate Pei Can. She took two steps forward and said, "Pei Can, don't you know who you are? A pariah dares to think of the princess's brother and the chief minister's brother-in-law. Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, hey, who gave you the courage to be so whimsical? Pei Can, Pei Can, I remember that I asked someone to remind you before, telling you to stay away from Brother Yuan. But you are good, You still lick your face and move forward! Humph, since you are so shameless, then fine! Today the Japanese princess will make you thicker-skinned!"
