Master, stay safe

Chapter 6 The real murderer
For half a month, I went out of the palace every day and got very close to Zhou Yunyi.My only purpose is to find evidence.People always make mistakes, and I don't believe that Zhou Yunyi can be so meticulous without making any mistakes.

If he really killed my two son-in-laws, if I stay with him every day, I will definitely be able to find clues.

Brother Huang is very happy that Zhou Yunyi and I are getting closer, every day when he sees me going to ask for the palace order, he always smiles.I feel more and more that Zhou Yunyi is a scourge, look at his appearance of Zhilan Yushu, not only fascinated all the girls in the capital, but now he also drugged the emperor brother.

Brother Huang didn't speak and I knew what he was thinking.

The candidate for the sixth son-in-law must be Zhou Yunyi in Brother Huang's heart.

As dusk approached, Zhou Yunyi sent me back to the palace.When we arrived at the south gate, Qiutao helped me get off the carriage.Zhou Yunyi also got out of the carriage, with a gentle smile on his lips, he said, "The time spent with the princess has passed so quickly, and it will be dark in the blink of an eye."

Just as I was about to say something, a courtier walked out from the south gate. When they saw Zhou Yunyi and me, they were all stunned for a moment, and then showed a clear and gratified smile.I recognize this courtier, Tang Mufeng, the servant of the Ministry of War. There is a son in his family who happens to be of marriageable age. For a marriage, Tang Shilang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Every time he saw me, he looked terrified, wishing to put oil on the soles of his feet and pretend that he didn't exist.Seeing that Zhou Yunyi and I are getting closer now, he is naturally relieved.

I said, "It was Tang Shilang."

Tang Shilang bowed to me and said, "I never expected to meet the princess and colleagues Zhou here."

I smiled and said, "It's just a coincidence." I smiled slightly, with deep eyes, and said, "I don't know how the Tang Shilang's family is doing. I heard that Lingzi has recently acquired a precious calligraphy. I will ask Lingzi to bring it some other day." Give me a reward."

Tang Shilang was quite frightened, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said: "The dog is stupid, how can he know what calligraphy is not? It was just found by chance. It is lucky for the three lives of the dog to be in the eyes of the princess. It's just that the dog has recently contracted a cold. , the princess's phoenix body is the most important thing, and the minister will send the calligraphy for the dog tomorrow."

I said: "That's fine, I'll give it back to Lingzi after I finish rewarding it."

Tang Shilang hurriedly said: "It is Mo Bao's fortune to be liked by the princess, and when the humble officials and dogs pay respects to Her Highness, Mo Bao will ask the princess to accept it."

I smiled and said: "Since Tang Shilang said so, I am not polite."

"Wei... Weichen resigns."

Looking at Tang Shilang's bitter back, the corners of my lips curled up slightly.This time, Tang Shilang has been suffering from heartache for several days. I know it. Before that, Tang Shilang's son spent a lot of money to buy calligraphy. I still heard about it.But let's say that this palace has a little malice towards Tang Shilang's family, who made Tang Shilang look like he was afraid that I would eat his son every time he saw me, now he relieved his sulk and felt really refreshed.

Suddenly there was a laugh from beside me, it was the first time I heard Zhou Yunyi, who had always been gentle and refined, laugh so heartily.

He said: "Yun Yi first discovered that the princess is so interesting."

I glared at him: "Are you making fun of me?"

Zhou Yunyi shook his head: "Yun Yi is praising the princess. Tang Shilang doesn't know the princess's kindness, so he is so sincere and fearful, but this is also good. In this way, Yun Yi will have one less opponent. The princess can rest assured that my parents are right. Princesses admire her very much, and she will never be like Tang Shilang."

He smiled, and said again: "It's winter now, the night is cold, the princess takes care of her body."

There is a sedan chair waiting at the south gate, and I have almost always returned to the palace at this time in the past half month.I have been with Zhou Yunyi for half a month, and I have to say that he is an extremely gentle man. If there were no top five consorts and Jun Qingyan, I think I would definitely like him.

For the past half month, Zhou Yunyi has performed extremely well, and I can't find any clues.But he was so good that I had to wonder if maybe he was faking it.

I went back to Qingyu Palace in distress, just after I changed my clothes, I suddenly heard a cat meowing.

I was startled, and asked Qiutao to open the door.

It's the white cat I gave Jun Qingyan.The white cat walked in lazily, its snow-white body was like snowflakes outside. I have to say that this white cat has been raised by Jun Qingyan for a long time, but it has a somewhat similar expression to Jun Qingyan.

Thinking of Jun Qingyan, I suddenly realized that I rarely went to Zhuxiu Pavilion in the past half month.

After the Lost Tracking Gu failed, I was a little disheartened.

When I raised Qing Chong Gu, I always felt that I was very talented, but later I suddenly realized that the so-called natural talent was just a self-deception. I am just an ordinary person, and now I seem to be a little dull.

I took the white cat from Qiutao, patted its head, and said, "Get ready for the sedan chair."

"Where is the princess going?" Qiu Tao asked.

I said: "Go to Zhuxiu Pavilion." It happened that I didn't have dinner, so I could ask Master to cook a delicious meal.The last time I tasted Master's craft, I really felt that Master is unparalleled in the world, no matter what he can do very well.

I thought that if Jun Qingyan could be as pleasing to me as Zhou Yunyi, I immediately asked the emperor for orders without saying a word!

I carried the white cat into the sedan chair.

The white cat meowed and rubbed its head against the palm of my hand.

I smiled and said, "Can you see what Bengong is thinking?"

The white cat meowed.

I said again: "Do you think Master is interested in me?" If he really only regarded me as a disciple, why would he treat me so hard?He was afraid that I would be in danger and followed me out. When I was hungry, as long as I looked at him eagerly, he would go to the kitchen to cook for me.

Except for Wan'er, whom I have never met, the master only treats me like this, and he doesn't even bother to give the rest of the girls the corner of his eye.

After arriving at Zhuxiu Pavilion, as soon as I got out of the sedan chair, the white cat in my arms jumped off, left a few paw prints on the snow, and ran directly into Jun Qingyan's arms.I didn't expect Jun Qingyan to stand outside the house in such a cold weather, and judging from the snow on his hair, it seems that he stood there for a long time.

I was surprised and said: "Why is Master standing outside the house?"

Jun Qingyan's expression was rather unnatural, he coughed a few times, and said, "It's gone, come out to find the cat for the teacher."

Suddenly, I said, "I came out to look for cats." I smiled and said, "Master doesn't know, this white cat came to me." Jun Qingyan and I went into the house together, walked around the main hall to When I turned to the pavilion, I suddenly found that there was a table of steaming food on the table.

I swallowed, and my stomach growled.

Jun Qingyan coughed lightly again, and said: "Today the white cat kept barking, so I made a table for it to eat, and it disappeared as soon as it was done. I didn't expect to go to the Qingyu Palace. It should be punished for being so mischievous. The table will not give it food."

He looked at me with deep eyes.

I said: "Yes, it should be punished, it can't eat. Just let Ah Wu eat since she didn't have dinner."

Jun Qingyan coughed: "...that's fine."

Jun Qingyan made braised lion head today, and the taste is just right, too much oil, too little, and too bland.I ate happily, and my mouth didn't stop after I picked up the chopsticks.Jun Qingyan was sitting beside me, drinking a cup of hot tea slowly.

He suddenly asked me: "What did Zhou Yunyi and Zhou find outside?"

I swallowed the meat and sighed: "No, I didn't find anything. But Zhou Yunyi is a little suspicious, he treats me too well, no man has ever been so gentle to me except Brother Huang. If it weren't for the top five Consort, I..."

"What are you?"

I said: "I really want to marry him. After we get married, I will be able to sing in harmony."

"Is it?"

I glanced at Jun Qingyan, there seemed to be something wrong with his expression.I thought about it carefully, and I was afraid that Jun Qingyan might misunderstand, and said: "But this is impossible. Before the truth comes out, I will definitely not marry Zhou Yunyi. Even if the marriage is offered by the emperor, I don't want to." !"

"Oh." He replied.

I picked up my chopsticks again, and when I was about to pick up a piece of pork belly, Jun Qingyan suddenly took the plate away.I made a blank.

Jun Qingyan said flatly: "It's not good to eat so much meat."

I went to clamp the last piece of lion head again, and it was empty again.Jun Qingyan took away all the meat and left a plate of green vegetables, he said: "Be vegetarian, it's good for your health."

I was stunned and stunned for a while before I said to Jun Qingyan: "Master."

He glances at me.

I swallowed heavily, and said, "Are you enjoying yourself?" It's written like this in the scriptures!

Jun Qingyan's body froze, as if he had realized something, his voice turned cold instantly.

"You think too much. Eating too much meat is really bad for your health. You are a teacher's apprentice, so naturally a teacher has to think about you."

I pondered and pondered, but I didn't want to understand why Jun Qingyan suddenly changed his face.After I returned to Qingyu Palace, I carefully recalled every word I said in Zhuxiu Pavilion, and every expression of Jun Qingyan.

Although Jun Qingyan often has only one expression on his face, when he takes a closer look, he can still find subtle differences.

However, I pondered over and over again and couldn't figure out why.

Early the next morning, I went to Zhuxiu Pavilion again, but I didn't expect it to be empty.The servant of Zhuxiu Pavilion told me that Jun Qingyan left Zhuxiu Pavilion early in the morning.I went to Concubine Qin's place again, did some homework, and after finding out that Jun Qingyan didn't come to ask her for a palace order, I went to the south gate again.

I asked, "Have you met my master?"

The guard at the south gate touched his nose and replied: "It seems to be there, but it seems not to be."

After getting this answer, I was absolutely sure that Jun Qingyan had left the palace.With Jun Qingyan's ability, it is easy to leave the palace, and he will not be bound by the order to leave the palace. The silver light is shining slightly, and once the Gu worms come out, they can leave without anyone noticing.

Thinking of this, my heart tightened slightly, and I hurried to Zhuxiu Pavilion.

I asked the servant: "When my master left, did he have any burden on him?"

The servant thought for a while and said, "If you go back to the princess, Mr. Jun didn't bring anything with you."

I went into the room and took a look, Jun Qingyan still had the utensils used to raise Gu, the white cat was also there, and the light blue robe hanging on the screen was not taken away, so I breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that Jun Qingyan just went out for business, not to leave here.

I told the servant: "My master's departure, don't say anything."

If the imperial brother knew that Jun Qingyan violated the palace rules, he would definitely be furious.

The voice of the waiter.

Before I left Zhuxiu Pavilion, I ordered my servant: "If my master comes back, he must report to this Palace." After a pause, I added: "Report secretly."

The next day I wasted no time in front of the Zhuxiu Pavilion again.

I frowned and asked, "Did my master come back last night?"

The servant said distressedly: "Young Master Jun is back, but the slave didn't notice it. I didn't know that Young Master Jun came back last night until early this morning when I saw the figure of Young Master Jun leaving."

"Going out again?"

"Yes."

I was again disappointed.Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and I didn't even see a single strand of Jun Qingyan's hair.I felt more and more that I must have said something wrong that night, otherwise Jun Qingyan would not have been like this.

In mid-December, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the breath is also ice.I'm a stubborn person, I don't believe Jun Qingyan can't be caught.As soon as night fell, I secretly left Qingyu Palace without even taking Qiutao and Dongtao with me.

I am going to implement the method of waiting for the rabbit.

When the emperor allowed Jun Qingyan to live in the palace, he told me not to stay in the same room with Jun Qingyan overnight. Although he has the name of master and apprentice, he is still a lonely man and a widow.On weekdays, I stay a bit late in Zhuxiu Pavilion, and the emperor will definitely send someone to urge me.

I'm going to stay in Zhuxiu Pavilion all night tonight, and I don't believe I won't be able to wait for Jun Qingyan to come back.Even if he really wants to leave, I have to ask about it anyway.Like a thief, I sneakily avoided the patrolling guards and walked lightly through the bamboo forest.

After arriving at Zhuxiu Pavilion, I sneaked in again without letting the servants find me.

There was no light in the room, so I had no choice but to grope all the way in the dark. I didn't know what I encountered on the way, and my forehead was so painful. I touched it, and it should be a screen.I endured the pain and sat in the side pavilion. If Jun Qingyan came back, he would have to pass through the side pavilion. I am so obvious and alone here, I don't believe he can't see me.

It was slightly cold in the side pavilion, and I kept rubbing the stove in my pocket.

I don't know how long I waited, but I just felt Zhou Gong was waving to me non-stop.I nodded my head several times, and slapped directly on the table.

I was in a drowsy sleep.

In a daze, I seemed to hear Jun Qingyan's voice—"Ming... Yu?"

I subconsciously responded.Jun Qingyan's voice sounded again in my ear, "Mingyu wake up." This time I woke up completely, I rubbed my sleepy eyes, and it was Jun Qingyan's figure that caught my eyes.

He looked at me, frowning slightly, as if he was a little displeased.

I grabbed the corner of his clothes and said: "Master, Ah Wu is waiting for you." The drowsiness disappeared, and I tightened his clothes tightly, fearing that Jun Qingyan would run away again if he didn't pay attention.I said, "Master, where have you been? Why haven't I seen you for half a month?"

Jun Qingyan looked down at my hand and said expressionlessly, "I have something to do with my teacher."

Jun Qingyan's voice was very cold, as if returning to the moment when I first met him, cold and alienated.I was slightly taken aback, and said: "Is Master angry at Ah Wu? Because Ah Wu said that Master has tasted it?"

It is indeed in my impression that from that day on, Jun Qingyan became a little inappropriate.

Jun Qingyan pulled back the corner of his clothes, turned his head slightly, and said, "No, I just have something to do as a teacher. It's late at night, you go back to Qingyu Palace."

As soon as I mentioned this, Jun Qingyan's expression changed immediately. Although it was very subtle, I could see it clearly.

Sure enough, it was because of this sentence.

I didn't insist anymore, and said softly: "Master, send me back to Qingyu Palace. I ran out secretly. If Brother Huang knows that I came to Zhuxiu Pavilion in the middle of the night, he will definitely not spare me tomorrow."

Jun Qingyan looked at me, as if hesitating.

I looked at him helplessly.

He pursed his lips, turned around, and I quickly followed.Along the way, Jun Qingyan used Gu to avoid everyone's eyes and ears, and when he arrived at Qingyu Palace, he also used Gu to control Qiutao and Dongtao.

I said: "Ah Wu wants to learn Gu skills tomorrow."

Jun Qingyan said, "Okay."

I breathed a sigh of relief, he promised that he would not disappear without a trace tomorrow.I pushed open the door, and when I was about to go in, Jun Qingyan suddenly coughed lightly.I turned my head, and a small white-glazed porcelain bottle appeared in front of my eyes.

I startled slightly.

Jun Qingyan glanced at my forehead and said, "Wipe a little, and the swelling will go down tomorrow."

After Jun Qingyan left, the Gu worm also failed.Qiutao looked at me in surprise, and said, "Why is the princess getting up?"

I shook my head and said, "I can't sleep and I'm going to go outside for a walk, but now I feel sleepy again."

Qiutao said again: "Princess's forehead..."

I clenched the white-glazed porcelain bottle in my hand, and said with a smile, "I accidentally knocked it over." Qiu Tao hurriedly said, "My servant is looking for medicine to reduce swelling." I said, "No need, I have found it."

I went back to the couch, unscrewed the cork of the porcelain bottle, and smelled the fragrance of the medicine, and my previously heavy mood suddenly became better.

I feel more and more that Jun Qingyan cares about me.

If it's just an ordinary master and apprentice, even if the disciple accidentally said something like "tasteful", if the master's heart is open and frank, how could he care?It's over with a smile at most.The benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees wisdom. I am afraid that my unintentional words on that day just saw through Master's heart, so I have avoided seeing him for more than half a month.

The more Master escapes, the more wrong his expression is, the more it proves that Master has not only a master-student relationship with me, but also a different kind of affection.

The wound medicine rubbed on my forehead, it was cold, and I cheered from the bottom of my heart.

I played with the white-glazed porcelain vase in my hand, and the more I touched it, the happier I became.

Suddenly, I noticed small red characters on the bottom of the porcelain bottle.I took a look, and it was the word "Thai".I was slightly stunned. The emperor's year name is Yuansheng. Most of the porcelain in the official kiln is printed with the character "Yuan", and the first emperor's year name does not have the word "Tai". If it is porcelain from a folk kiln, the bottom There is not only one word printed.

Could it be porcelain from another country?

I carefully looked at the small white-glazed porcelain vase in Hui's hand, and it didn't look like it was newly made, but it seemed to be quite old.

I thought about it, I should ask Jun Qingyan tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, the next day my head was a little heavy and my ears were buzzing.I sneezed a few times as soon as I opened my eyes.Qiu Tao said worriedly: "Princess, your complexion is not very good-looking, this servant will call the imperial physician over."

I know that I caught cold in the side pavilion last night, so I caught the wind and cold this morning.

My head was dizzy, and I felt very uncomfortable. This time I didn't refuse, I had to find an imperial doctor to see.When the imperial doctor came, so did the emperor brother.Brother Huang scolded Qiu Tao and Dong Tao: "How do you take care of the princess?"

Qiutao and Dongtao knelt tremblingly.

With a hoarse voice, I said, "Brother Huang, it's just a little cold."

Brother Huang said: "Ah Wu, if you didn't feel very uncomfortable, why would you call the imperial physician over? How many times have I told you that you have to pay attention to your body." After talking about it, Brother Huang's face became even more ugly.

I was most afraid of seeing Brother Huang with such a serious expression, so I said cautiously: "Brother Huang, Ah Wu knew it was wrong. Ah Wu will definitely drink the medicine well and recover soon."

The imperial physician took my pulse and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I just contracted a cold, and I will recover after a few days of recuperation."

Brother Huang's expression eased at this moment.

I racked my brains to coax Brother Huang, and a smile gradually appeared in Brother Huang's eyes.I suddenly remembered the scarlet letter on the bottom of the small porcelain bottle last night, and I asked casually, "Brother Huang, which ancestor in our Da'an history has the word 'Tai' in the year name?"

Brother Huang said: "No, why do you ask such a question suddenly?"

The white-glazed porcelain bottle Jun Qingyan gave me, I just want to hide it alone, if the emperor knows that Jun Qingyan has porcelain from other countries in his hands, I am afraid he will think about it, so he laughed and said: "I made a pot last night Strange dream, I dreamed that there was an emperor with the character 'Tai' in his year title, saying that he wanted to kill Ah Wu. When Ah Wu got up, she felt lingering fear..."

Brother Huang laughed and said, "It's just a dream. With me here, no one can hurt you. But..." He paused, "Speaking of which, there is indeed an emperor with this word in his year name."

"Which emperor is it?"

"It's not our Da'an, it's Emperor Jingtai from a neighboring country, but Emperor Jingtai and his queen died in a strange fire 80 years ago."

I am also impressed by what the emperor said.

Emperor Jingtai of the neighboring country died when he was less than thirty, which is also recorded in the history books.At that time, I sighed after seeing it. It is a pity that I passed away at such a young age.

After I took the medicine, my eyelids started to drop.But I still remember the agreement with Jun Qingyan, I called Dongtao and asked her to go to Zhuxiu Pavilion to tell Jun Qingyan.

Alas, this illness came too late.

It was rare for me to feel a little bit of Jun Qingyan's heart, and just as I was about to make persistent efforts, the wind and cold swept over me.The feeling of being sick is not good. I silently decided to eat less meat after recovery. Although I know that after recovery, I will definitely not be able to control my mouth. Every time the scar is healed, the pain is forgotten, but people are not like this what?
After nightfall, I was in a drowsy sleep when I suddenly heard the slight sound of breathing beside me.

The palace servants in the palace, especially my personal servants, have been specially trained to deliberately lower their breathing. Even in the silence of the night, I can hardly hear their breathing.

So I can tell that the people around me are not Qiutao and Dongtao.

I opened my eyes with difficulty, and when I saw the person in front of me, I was dumbfounded.But it was only a short moment, and surprise immediately flooded my heart, and my head didn't seem to be so heavy.

It's Jun Qingyan.

He was slightly surprised, his face was a little stiff: "Are you awake?"

I said: "Is Master coming to see Ah Wu?" I glanced at the two figures standing straight outside, and suddenly remembered the scene where I met Jun Qingyan in Fuhua Temple.

At that time, I regarded him as a flower picker and slapped him hard.

Now that I opened my eyes and saw him, my heart couldn't stop being joyful.

Jun Qingyan coughed and said, "Master, I heard that you had a cold and happened to pass by, so I came to see you."

I snickered in my heart.

Zhuxiu Pavilion is far away from Qingyu Palace, how can there be any advice on the way?What's more, using Gu to control my two maidservants clearly came prepared.Master's mouth is awkward.

But I don't mind.

I smiled and said, "Ah Wu just contracted the wind and cold, and it will be fine in a few days. Master will teach Ah Wu Gu skills after the wind and cold recover."

Jun Qingyan said: "Okay."

When he turned to leave, I couldn't hold back and grabbed Jun Qingyan's hand.His hands were cold and cold.He looked back, but did not withdraw his hand.

I said: "Master...Master."

"Ok?"

When I saw his back turning around, I subconsciously wanted to grab him and stay with him for a while longer.But on weekdays, I, who can talk like a hype, am at a loss for words at this moment.

I let go of it embarrassingly, and said: "Master, it's cold at night, you should also wear some more clothes."

After Jun Qingyan left, I wished I could pat myself on the couch, I was so stupid.

I thought it was just an ordinary cold, but I didn't expect to get better after taking medicine for a few days.

The imperial physician was quite puzzled.

Brother Huang was also very anxious and scolded Qiu Tao and Dong Tao several times.

After the imperial brother left Qingyu Palace, Qiu Tao bitterly said: "The princess hasn't been anywhere these few days, why did she catch a cold?" I couldn't tell them that I had sneaked out once, so I had to pretend that I didn't hear.

Fortunately, after seven or eight days, my wind and cold finally got better.

Qiutao and Dongtao looked thankful, thinking that my wind and cold this time scared them a lot.It seems that I still have to pay attention to my body in the future.

Zhou Yunyi came to my Qingyu Palace during the few days when I was suffering from the cold.But I dismissed him on the grounds that the phoenix body violated harmony.Now that I think about it, I feel a little guilty. After I sent him away, he sent some tonics every day, which is considered intentional.

But the truth has not been revealed yet, and my feelings towards Zhou Yunyi are somewhat complicated.

I have been with Zhou Yunyi for so many days, but I haven't found any evidence. I wonder if it's time to change direction?It's like starting with the family of the fifth son-in-law.

After making up my mind, I went to ask the emperor brother for the order to leave the palace.

I knew that the emperor didn't like me doubting his courtiers, so I said I was going to talk to Zhou Yunyi about the stars and the moon.Brother Huang wanted to make me and Zhou Yunyi a pair, so whenever I mentioned Zhou Yunyi, Brother Huang agreed very readily.

Then I went to Zhuxiu Pavilion and asked Master if he wanted to leave the palace with me.

Master hesitated.

But I have mastered the master's life gate, I looked at him eagerly, blinking and blinking.After a while, Master followed my footsteps in silence.

While sitting in the carriage, Jun Qingyan asked me where I was going.

I told him my plan.Jun Qingyan nodded, and said: "It should have been done a long time ago, Zhou Yunyi is cautious and meticulous, if the murderer is really him, you can't find any evidence if you hang around him for a few years."

After hearing this, I smiled and said, "So I'm changing direction now."

Suddenly, I remembered something again.

I took out the white-glazed porcelain bottle Jun Qingyan gave me last time, and asked curiously, "Master, why is the word 'Tai' printed on the bottom of this small porcelain bottle?"

I remember Master told me that he was from Lingyu, Zhoucheng.

Jun Qingyan said: "I got it by accident, I don't remember exactly when I got it."

I didn't care about it, and said casually: "I checked the history books, and the only one with the word Thai in the year name is Jingtai Emperor of the neighboring country." Speaking of this, I said with great interest: "But there is something about Emperor Jingtai in the history books. There are only a few records, and the last one is that Emperor Jingtai and his queen died in a strange fire. After Emperor Jingtai, his younger brother came to the throne. Emperor Jingtai had no children in his life, and there have been many murders in the palace since ancient times. It has to make people think too much. But there is really unofficial history saying that it was Emperor Jingtai who murdered him."

Jun Qingyan said indifferently: "Since ancient times, history books have been written by the victors, and history books may not be credible."

I said: "It's a pity for Emperor Jingtai's queen."

Jun Qingyan's eyes deepened, and he asked, "What do you mean by that?"

I sighed: "The queen was only 25 when she died, and she didn't even have an heir."

Jun Qingyan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly.

I paused, covered my mouth and laughed, and said in a low voice: "Emperor Jingtai has been on the throne for more than ten years, but he hasn't given birth to a baby. Master, guess that Emperor Jingtai can't do it..."

A sip of green tea erupts like a goddess scattered flowers.

It was the first time I saw Jun Qingyan lose his composure.

He said: "Young lady, how can you keep these words on your lips?"

I wiped my face with a handkerchief, and said, "Hey, it's just a casual remark, Master doesn't have to take it seriously."

Jun Qingyan glared at me: "Don't say these things in the future."

I nodded hurriedly.

The fifth son-in-law's background is not bad, and the places where he lives are all the places where famous families and dignitaries gather.I was worried about being recognized, so I specially wore a bamboo hat.Seeing this, Qiutao asked in surprise, "Grand... what is the princess going to do?"

I originally wanted Qiutao to inquire about it, but the fifth son-in-law and I were considered husband and wife, even though it didn't work out in the end.So it's more sincere to ask yourself.

I said, "Go and find the family of the Fifth Prince Consort."

Qiu Tao was stunned for a moment, and said, "Princess still doubts Mrs. Zhou?"

I said, "No, no, I just took a look at it on a whim."

Qiutao said: "But...but..."

I frowned: "Could it be that my palace is not good enough to visit the family of the fifth son-in-law?"

Qiu Tao quickly shook her head, she said: "It's just that the family of the fifth son-in-law moved out of the capital more than half a month ago."

I was shocked and said, "Why didn't anyone tell me about this?"

Qiu Tao said: "The servant only found out about it a few days ago. At that time, the princess had a cold, and the imperial doctor said that the princess should rest, so the servant did not dare to bother the princess with this matter."

After hearing this, I had no choice but to get in the carriage and go to the house where the third son-in-law lived.

Unexpectedly, the house is empty, where are there people?
I asked Qiutao to inquire.

Qiu Tao came back to report: "Princess, the third son-in-law's mother also left the capital a few days ago."

I am very worried.

One or two have moved away, so why should I check?

I just returned to Qingyu Palace, when I was about to change into clothes and go to Zhuxiu Pavilion to have dinner with Jun Qingyan, Gao Qiushou came over and said that Brother Huang had summoned me.My heart skipped a beat. When I asked for the palace order, I said to go to Zhou Yunyi, but this was just a wording. I knew that the third son-in-law and the fifth son-in-law's family had all moved back home, and they didn't go to see Zhou Yunyi at all.

I wiped my cold sweat.

After arriving at the Imperial Study, Brother Huang was having dinner.He glanced up at me and said, "Come and have dinner with me."

The waiter at the side added the bowls and chopsticks, and I sat down next to Brother Huang, who picked a piece of venison for me and asked casually, "Where did you go today?"

I was apprehensive for a while, and after thinking about it, I always felt that Brother Huang had asked this question, and I must have a solid foundation in my heart, so I said honestly: "I went to find the family members of the third consort and the fifth consort."

The chopsticks in Brother Huang's hand stopped, "Oh?"

I said: "Although the truth has come to light, Ah Wu has always felt ashamed of the third son-in-law and the fifth son-in-law in her heart. She wanted to give them more compensation. I didn't expect them to leave the capital."

Brother Huang said indifferently: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't need to worry about it."

After a while, the emperor brother said again: "According to the calculation, Jun Qingyan has lived in the palace for nearly a year, has he not found the person he is looking for?"

My heart tightened, hearing Brother Huang's tone, there was a strong tendency to drive Jun Qingyan out of the palace.I hurriedly said: "Not yet, there are so many maids in the palace, it will be difficult to find them one by one in a while." After a pause, I continued: "Master lives in Zhuxiu Pavilion, which is remote. The palace is not short of spare money to support individuals."

Brother Huang laughed, and said: "Listen to your tense tone, I didn't say that I would not let Jun Qingyan stay in the palace."

I was relieved.

Brother Huang said again: "Could it be that in Ah Wu's heart, Zhen's status is no longer as good as Jun Qingyan's?"

I shook my head vigorously, hugged Brother Huang's arm, and said in a coquettish tone: "What did Brother Huang say? Brother Huang is unique in Ah Wu's heart. Brother Huang is Ah Wu's heaven. How can Master be able to do that?" As good as the emperor's brother?"

Brother Huang smiled heartily and reached out to pat my head.

"Ah Wu has to remember, the person who treats you best in this world is Zhen, and Ah Wu must treat me well in the future."

After thinking about it for a while, I felt more and more that Brother Huang didn't like Jun Qingyan very much.Originally, I still wanted to go to Zhuxiu Pavilion to have a conversation with the master in an open and aboveboard manner, but now it's nothing more.After late at night, the green worm Gu also came in handy.

I looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that there was no comfort, Fang sneaked to Zhuxiu Pavilion.

Jun Qingyan really hadn't rested yet, and made a table of side dishes, and it was obvious that the formation was waiting for me.I sat down happily and said, "How did Master know that I would come?"

He said, "Didn't you say you would come over for dinner?"

I was surprised: "Master waited until now? I... When I went back, Brother Huang summoned me, and I forgot to ask Qiu Tao to come over and tell Master when I was in a hurry." I looked down at the dishes on the table, they were still steaming steamy.

Jun Qingyan said: "When the teacher saw that you didn't come, I knew that you were delayed by something. After a little calculation, I guessed that you would come around this time, so I also made a table of new side dishes."

I said: "It's Ah Wu's fault, I kept Master waiting for a long time."

Jun Qingyan said calmly: "It's okay, I'm used to it as a teacher."

I was stunned: "What are you used to?"

He said, "I'm used to waiting."

Looking at Jun Qingyan's appearance, I knew he was talking about Wan'er, and I felt a little uncomfortable.I avoided his gaze and changed the subject: "Does Master have wine? How can there be no wine when there is snow and moon?"

Jun Qingyan glanced at me.

I knew he remembered what happened in Mingyu Villa, so I laughed and said, "Master, don't worry, Ah Wu will only drink a glass or two. It's cold today, and drinking a few glasses of wine is just enough to warm up my body."

I blinked and looked at him expectantly.

He was a little helpless, and finally took out a jug of wine for me.I unscrewed the wine cap and smelled it, it was delicious!I said, "What kind of wine is this?"

Jun Qingyan said, "Ten Miles Fragrance."

I have drank so many fine wines in the palace, but I have never heard the name of this wine. It seems that Jun Qingyan often has some good things here that I don't know.I took a sip and felt the fragrance all over my body.

I opened my eyes wide and said, "Good wine!"

Jun Qingyan said: "This wine is not easy to get drunk."

I poured Jun Qingyan a cup, and he said, "I don't drink alcohol as a teacher." I chuckled, "I almost forgot." I poured another cup of tea for Jun Qingyan, and said curiously, "I seem to have never I have never seen Master eat anything, except melons and fruits."

He said: "You didn't see it when I was eating for the teacher."

"Is it?"

Jun Qingyan coughed lightly, and asked, "What did your emperor brother tell you?"

Speaking of this matter, I can't tell Jun Qingyan that the emperor doesn't like him very much.In the future, if I really get married with Jun Qingyan, the back of this hand is the emperor's brother, the palm is the master, and both sides are full of meat, I will be in a dilemma.

I thought for a while and sighed: "Brother Huang knows that I am still investigating the affairs of the two sons-in-law, so I am a little unhappy."

With half a mouthful of Ten Miles Fragrance in my stomach, I Zhi Yi said distressedly: "In the future, we will have to investigate secretly, and we must also avoid Dongtao and Qiutao, as well as the hidden guards in the palace, and the people in Qingyu Palace must also be avoided."

Jun Qingyan was slightly stunned, and said, "Are they all the emperor's people?"

I took it for granted: "Brother Huang is the Son of Heaven of Da'an. The whole world belongs to Brother Huang, and the people around me are naturally from Brother Huang. Brother Huang has been very worried about me since I was a child. If I don't have people around me, he won't Don't worry about me."

Jun Qingyan suddenly had a strange expression.

I asked: "This...what's wrong? It's the same with other people, and so is the sister of the prime minister's family. The emperor's brother hurts me so he doesn't trust me." Ever since I can remember, the emperor's brother and the Taifu have taught me this Yes, isn't this a normal thing?Why did Jun Qingyan show such a strange expression?

He said flatly: "To put it nicely, it means worrying about you, but to put it bluntly, it means spying on you."

I was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said: "Brother Huang watched me for my own good, don't others do the same?"

Jun Qingyan said: "I have lived as a teacher for so long, this is the first time I see you in this situation."

I'm a little confused.

Jun Qingyan said thoughtfully: "In the future, try to avoid people in your palace."

Hearing Jun Qingyan's tone, I suddenly felt that there was a slight crack in what I thought was right for more than 20 years.I poured in ten lixiang one cup after another, and I was slightly drunk for a long time.

With the wine in his stomach, he became a lot more courageous.

I looked at the handsome Jun Qingyan, blinked and blinked, and asked, "Master, it's been almost a year, and you still haven't found Wan'er. What if you can't find it for the rest of your life?"

Jun Qingyan was still the same as last time, firmly saying: "She is in the imperial city, I will definitely find her." This time when Jun Qingyan mentioned Wan'er, his face was faintly anxious.

I said, "What if she's already married?"

Jun Qingyan said: "I still want to find her."

I saw stubbornness from the bottom of his eyes, as if the vicissitudes of life could not stop Jun Qingyan's determination to find Wan'er.I remembered my first meeting with Jun Qingyan, and said, "Master, do I resemble Wan'er? Why did you regard me as her?"

He stared at me intently.

I also let him watch, the surroundings seemed to be so quiet that only the sound of my heartbeat was there.After a while, Jun Qingyan said: "You have her breath on you, but you are not her."

He lowered his eyes and clenched his fingers slightly.

"Four more years, only four more."

I asked, "Four years what?"

Jun Qingyan didn't answer me, but I could see that his mind was flustered, he wanted to pick up the teacup, but he took it wrong, and drank the winecup as if it were a teacup.I was stunned: "Master, you..."

Jun Qingyan's complexion changed, and he quickly lowered his head to look, and his complexion changed again.

He stepped aside, grabbed his throat, and started spitting.I was shocked and ran to Jun Qingyan. Jun Qingyan waved his hand at me and said weakly, "It's fine as a teacher. You can continue to eat."

...How could I possibly be able to eat under such circumstances!
Jun Qingyan vomited for a while, about half a stick of incense, he wiped his mouth and raised his head, I found that his lips had lost the color of blood, and his footsteps were a little sloppy, just like a long-term sick person.

I remembered that time in Mingyu Villa, I had an idea and said: "Master, let me play the flute for you."

Jun Qingyan really did not refuse.

I picked up Jun Qingyan's flute and was about to play it when he said angrily, "...wait a minute." Then he picked up the white cat that had already fallen asleep and got into the quilt, raised his eyes slightly, and spoke softly Of: "Okay."

I played the last song again, as if my flute sound had magical powers. Gradually, gradually, Jun Qingyan's lips returned to their original color, unbelievably fast.

After the song was over, Jun Qingyan had already fallen asleep.

I walked to the side of the couch, my eyes fixed.

I remembered something.

When I hid from the rain in the cave that night, I was so dizzy with fever, and when Jun Qingyan came back for the second time, he was not wet at all.Obviously when he was the first time, he said that the Gu worms were used up.

And now...

He becomes weak when he touches meat or alcohol, and he never eats anything but melons and fruits.

Master, who is he?
