Jiaochu

The next day, Ye Lingxi climbed up the tower to watch the envoy off. After all, they were allies. When she climbed up, she found that there was already a person watching from above. She quietly went downstairs again to prevent the other party from seeing her embarrassed, and then ran away again.

After the mission left, life in the palace returned to calm.

In her spare time, Ye Lingxi started thinking about Li Hunxiang and Xu Zilin.

A few days later, Yanfei brought her a message, explaining in advance that his third uncle had told him the news.

Xu Zilin is in Zixue Pavilion.

Ye Lingxi felt a little surprised, and she was even more surprised when she heard the next words.

People have lost their memory.

According to his third uncle's speculation, what happened should be like this:

After Xu Zilin was tricked out of the city that day, he was pushed out of the pavilion and rolled into the pool below. This scene happened to be seen by a girl from Zixue Pavilion. This girl happened to be playing nearby and happened to know Shuixing rescued the person and brought him back to Zixue Pavilion.

But unexpectedly, he didn't remember anything after he woke up. He probably hit his head while rolling down the pavilion.

After listening to it, Ye Lingxi had a feeling that seemed reasonable but not very reliable.

It happened that he was seen by a girl, who happened to be able to swim, and also happened to have amnesia. Such a series of coincidences was a bit too coincidental.

After pondering for a few seconds, Ye Lingxi asked how the investigation on Li Hunxiang was going. Yan Fei happened to have a new clue here, and his third uncle told him.

After Yanjiang came back, he went to see Wu Peng in person and brought him a meeting gift. Wu Peng was quite satisfied with the meeting gift, so he revealed a piece of news to him.

The person who bought Lihunxiang from him many years ago was Qingyu Jian Taobi, who was once a retainer in Prince Xian's palace.

Ye Lingxi heard Ye Lingjue mention this uncle who died young. He was the eldest son of her imperial grandfather and the eldest brother of her father. However, he was assassinated on the eve of being crowned prince. Later, her second uncle rebelled again. .

At that time, she suspected that the assassination was probably related to her second uncle. He was very ambitious and ruthless, and could even do things like force the palace. How could a mere brotherhood become a stumbling block on the road to the throne? Could it be that? Tao Bi was the undercover spy arranged by the other party. Was this Li Hun Xiang bought to deal with her uncle?

If her eldest uncle had been poisoned by the Soul-Leaving Incense, he would have stabbed himself and then disguised the scene as an assassination. Her imperial grandfather probably would not have thought that brothers would use such vicious methods. Bar.

But what is the connection between these old events and Guo Huai? Could it be that it was Tao Bi who used this soul-departing incense to harm others?

"Brother Yan, do you think this Tao Bi is secretly colluding with others to drag Uncle Su into trouble?"

Yan Fei said: "Since His Highness the King Xian passed away, Tao Bi left the capital. Later, I heard that he was chased by his enemies, fell into the water and drowned. After that, there was no trace or news about him in the world. .”

After thinking for a few seconds, Ye Lingxi held his chin and said, "Then he didn't die. He faked his own death to escape the pursuit of his enemies, and then hid incognito. After the limelight passed, he quietly sneaked back to the capital." After finishing speaking, Finally, she saw Yan Fei looking at her without speaking, as if he was a little surprised that she could think of so many things in her little head. She couldn't help but feel a little proud. After restraining her facial expression, she humbly asked for advice: "Brother Yan, what do you mean? Am I right?" Yan Fei nodded and praised, "The princess is so resourceful, I can't be ashamed of myself." Ye Lingxi asked, "Is she just smart?" Yan Fei didn't react for a moment, and waited until he understood. After the subtext, he clenched his fists and coughed lightly, then complimented with two words with a reddish face, "It looks good." Seeing the awkward and awkward look of the other party, Ye Lingxi snickered, changed the subject and said, "It would be great if I could find a way to lure the snake out of its hole. ”

Yan Fei glanced around, put his hand to his mouth and whispered a few words to her. Ye Lingxi covered her mouth and nodded, indicating that she would not tell anyone.

……

On this day, the sky was gloomy, with thick dark clouds covering most of the sky. Thunder rumbled in the distance, as if it would rain heavily in the next moment.

Despite the bad weather, people are still coming and going in Zixue Pavilion, so there is no need to worry about bad business.

A well-dressed young man walked in with a young man with cold eyes that kept strangers away.

"Don't be so grim. If you don't tell me, how will the princess know?" The young master used a folding fan as a shield and whispered to the young master next to him, "Besides, you have to see the world more. To avoid falling into any honey trap in the future.”

This young master is Yan Jiang, and this young master is Yan Fei. Both uncle and nephew put on some disguises. The former was dressed in fancy clothes, wearing a colorful jade sachet on his waist, and he was specially painted with thick eyebrows and big eyes. , the bridge of the nose has also been slightly modified, making it look a bit flatter than usual, and the face shape has been made more square. At first glance, it looks somewhat similar to the original appearance, but upon closer inspection, it is easy to tell that it is not the same face.

Yanfei's face had a few pockmarks, and his skin color was darker than usual. After changing his hairstyle, he looked quite different from usual.

When Li's mother came over, Yan Jiang took out a silver coin from his sleeve and rewarded her, asking her to find the most beautiful girl in the building. After the two of them took their seats downstairs, Mother Li came over with seven or eight girls and introduced that this one is called Taohong, who can play the piano, this one is called Haitang, who can dance, and this one is called Chunyue, who can paint...

Yanjiang asked Taohong and Haitang to stay, and Li's mother left first with the other girls. Yanjiang asked Taohong what kind of music she could play, and what kind of dance Haitang could dance. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he felt there was noisy downstairs, so he went to the private room upstairs.

After entering the box, Yanjiang asked the two of them to pick up their best songs and play their best dances. Yanfei didn't watch the two playing the piano and dancing. He was pondering in his mind a set of martial arts moves he had practiced a few days ago.

Yanjiang sat on a stool, crossed his legs, propped his head on one hand, closed his eyes and listened to the music, tapping his fingers on the table in accordance with the music. After the two of them finished playing the piano and dancing, he rewarded each of them with a piece of silver and let them go out first.

The rumble of thunder from far to near heralds the coming of a heavy rain.

A bolt of purple lightning cut through the clouds and struck the earth. The dazzling light was like a burning fireball. The light was fleeting and heavy rain poured down.

Ye Lingxi stood at the door and looked at the heavy rain outside, feeling a premonition in her heart.

Something will happen.

But she couldn't tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, outside the palace or inside the palace. If it was a dream, she should be able to see it...
