Cherry Blossoms Upon a Wintry Sword
Chapter 58: Things in the Palace
Prior to the coma of the princess, Yuhuayuan had been carefully searched. However, the purpose was to find someone, so some corners where it was impossible to hide were still missing. Now the Holy Lord just scolded the two princes, and ordered the matter with a heavy face. The people in charge naturally understood that the Holy Spirit was getting angry, so they searched for it very carefully, and couldn't wait to lift up each turf and look closely See if there is something hidden underneath.
The outside was too hot. The people outside were illuminating in the garden, and they waited in the house. There were a lot of ice cubes in all corners of the room to cool off the summer, and the maids were shaking fans. It was not very hot. In the daytime, Rui was afraid that a few people were thirsty, and he specially called someone to bring frozen plum soup. Lin Rufei had that kind of thing at the inn last night. He almost didn't sleep overnight. Sitting in the room to rest, he felt a little drowsiness, but in the presence of the emperor, he didn't perform well. Obviously, I only yawned occasionally while chatting with Xuan Qing.
"Lin Gongzi is lacking?" Xuan Qing, however, captured the tiredness on Lin Rufei's face very sensitively, and said, "Since it is lacking, should you go back to rest first?"
Lin Rufei shook his head and said dumbly: "No problem, just that I didn't have a good rest last night, it's a bit sleepy."
Bai Jinglun heard that he said there was a guest room nearby. If Lin Rufei didn't mind, he could take a short break in the guest room. Lin Rufei refused, saying that he hadn't slept well so that Bai Jinglun didn't have to worry about it.
Hearing this statement, Bai Jinglun didn't persuade him any more. It can be seen that his mood was extremely bad at this time, because it was not a good thing whether or not he found the triumphant in the royal garden's mouth. If you find it, it means that the third princess is really harmful, but if you do n’t find it, it means that the sixth prince was taught and did something that should n’t be learned. Something happened to his own child. Naturally, his father is not happy. .
Rui was not nervous at all during the day, and happily talked with Xuan Qing about what happened in the past few years.
From their conversation, Lin Rufei learns that the two have been friends for decades, but the people who met Xuanqing for the first time are not the daytime Rui, but have become the emperor's white economy. If you count the years, the three should have been friends for many years, but Xuanqing and the Bai family's attitude toward each other cannot be seen clearly. Whether in the face of Bai Jinglun or in the daytime, Xuanqing is a gentle and courteous appearance. There is no transgression between the words and it is very decent. Although polite this way, but in the end it is a kind of friendship between friends.
Lin Rufei and a few of them were not too familiar, so they drank plum soup beside them, and Quan Dang heard the story.
This plum soup tastes good, sweet and sour, and it's even better after being chilled. When Lin Rufei drank a glass and was about to pour another glass, the searcher at the garden came back.
The leader should look like a guard from the outside. It was naturally sweaty after searching in the Royal Garden for such a hot day, but his face was as pale as paper at this time. , He went to his knees in front of Bai Jinglun, and trembled, "Emperor, found ..."
"What did you find?" Bai Jinglun narrowed his eyes in a bad tone.
"I've found something weird about ... but his subordinates don't know much about it and don't know what it is for." The guard head knelt on the ground and whispered.
As soon as his words fell, there was a loud bang. Bai Jinglun was so angry that he directly hit the plum soup on the table directly on the ground, and then he sternly said, "Where is the thing?"
"It's just under the plum tree in the Royal Garden. The subordinates didn't dare to move." The head of the guard whispered.
Bai Jinglun got up and walked. When Lin Rufei responded, he had already stepped into the house within a few steps.
The three others in the room looked at each other in a slightly awkward atmosphere. During the day, Rui sighed, shook her head, and followed.
Lin Rufei and Xuan Qing also got up to keep up. Xuan Qing walked beside Lin Rufei's body and explained in a low voice why Bai Jinglun was so angry.
It turned out that among these emperors, Bai Jinglun most loved the third princess. The mother of the third princess was very favored, but her health was bad. After the birth of the eldest prince and the third princess, she hurriedly passed away. The three princesses were raised under the queen queen's lap, and the emperor also missed her loss since she was a child and loved her very much. If she really did the trick to hurt people, I'm afraid the most distressing is Bai Jinglun's father.
Lin Rufei and Xuan Qing slowly walked behind, and when they reached the Royal Garden, they heard Bai Jinglun suppressing their anger and letting them dig out.
The thing was buried under a tall plum tree. It is said that the three princesses liked the plum tree very much and did not let people approach at all. Now it is not true that the six princes were dug out under the plum tree.
Although Lin Rufei has read a lot of history books, knowing that the battle between the royal family has always been cruel, but at last at this time I was fortunate to see it with my own eyes, and my mind was slightly complicated.
Xuan Qing stood next to him, watching the movements of the guards. Zhang Qingjun's face had no grief or joy, and remained unmoved by foreign objects.
"Just ... that's ..." The head of the guard trembled out an iron box, carefully opened it, and revealed the contents inside.
Lin Rufei saw the objects in the gift box from afar. There was a weird ragdoll inside it, and a book with yellowed pages. The bottom of the book seemed to be pressed. Bai Jinglun took the next thing out. Shake it off and find out that it is actually a few pages of paintings with tender style. The painting looks messy and unpredictable, like a child's random work. However, Bai Jinglun's original solemn and gloomy expression spread out after seeing the painting. His expression was much softer, and he even sighed from his mouth.
Everyone showed a strange color, but Xuan Qing was the first to understand it, shaking his head and saying, "You're wrong, this is not a trivial victory, this is just the princess's old thing."
"Master Xuan Qing is right." Bai Jinglun nodded, believing Xuan Qing's statement. He gently picked up the doll, carefully placed it in his palm and rubbed his eyes. His eyes were full of memories and tenderness. "This doll is Her skills and skills are poor. In order to coax the child to make such a thing, she scared Mu Mou very seriously. "
After he said it, he put the doll back into the box: "Afterwards I thought this doll was thrown away by Mu Mou's mother. I didn't expect to see it here." He shook his head, revealing some vicissitudes, and handed the box Xuan Qing standing next to him, "Master Xuan Qing, look, there are no suspicious objects in the box."
Xuan Qing took a step forward, took the iron box, and carefully checked the contents inside. He took a few glances at the weird doll, then put it down, and then flipped out of the book, page by page to the bottom, it seems that nothing unusual was found on top of it, only a few childish paintings pressed on the bottom of the box, When Xuan Qing picked up one of them and watched it carefully, Lin Rufei, who was standing beside him, frowned suddenly.
Xuan Qing's hand holds a painting that looks like childish graffiti at first glance, but after a closer inspection, you will find that these graffiti are printed with a black ink stain. The content of the painting is very Rich, there are people and landscapes, but the people who are painting are too young, so the shapes of things drawn are very strange, and I can barely recognize the prototype.
In one of the paintings, the ink stain seems to become the protagonist. It is drawn at the very center of the paper, and around it is a rough depiction of several villain patterns. It is probably a group of children who want to express Playing with this thing in the middle, I don't think it's okay at first glance, but if you look at it for a long time, you will have a chill on your back for no reason.
"Why, Mr. Lin, are there any problems with these paintings?" Rui Jian asked Lin Rufei with a dignified expression during the day.
Lin Rufei said, "When was this painting?"
"Mu Mou painted it when he was a child." Bai Jinglun answered Lin Rufei's question. "She is impatient, doesn't like piano, calligraphy, painting and calligraphy of these things, and the teacher has a bad temper as soon as she teaches." It ’s not good, but pride is revealed in the expression. “But the skill of riding and shooting is one by one, better than her brothers, if not a girl ...” Regret in his words, Anyone can hear it.
Bai Jinglun's affection for the princess can be seen, but how can she like it, from the moment she was born, she is doomed to be favored and can only be a princess.
Lin Rufei also feels regret. If the three princesses were born in the monk's house, as long as the talent is good enough, whether it is male or female, it will be the most favored one. Unfortunately, she was born in a world that can't escape. This unwilling fate.
"Why is there a black ink in each of the princess's paintings?" Lin Rufei said.
Bai Jinglun disagreed: "Ink? It's about her naughty, accidentally dirty her paintings."
Lin Rufei said, "This iron box contains the princess's love, right?"
White Jinglun nodded.
Lin Rufei said: "Since it's a beloved thing, how can it be dirty?"
It's the same reason. Several people heard the words revealing contemplation, but Rui suddenly said during the day: "It's really hard to stay outside in such a hot day. Why not go into the house and continue talking?"
"Alright." Bai Jinglun agreed.
Several people returned in the same way and re-entered the study.
Just halfway through the day, Rui took the iron box from Xuan Qing's hand and checked it, but he had no interest in the painting, and instead focused on the weird ragdoll and squeezed it in his hands. For a while. Lin Rufei stood next to him, noticed his movements, and saw him deliberately slowing down while taking the time to talk to Xuan Qing and Bai Jinglun, and they both fell behind.
During the day Rui saw Lin Rufei suddenly stop, and he tilted his head and smiled at Lin Rufei: "Lin Gongzi can't keep up quickly, what are you doing next to me, do you like me?"
Lin Rufei ignored these perfunctory words and asked directly: "What's so special about this three princess?"
Rui stared silently during the day.
Lin Rufei said, "You don't take it out now, you will enter the room later, but you won't have the chance to take it."
Daytime Rui sighed, with some helplessness in his eyes, he said, "Lin Gongzi, Lin Gongzi, sometimes too clever ... It's not a good thing." While talking, during the day, Rui holding the doll's hand hard, it turned out to be Several shiny spikes were squeezed out of his body, and he pulled them out and threw them on the grass aside before putting the doll back into the box.
Lin Rufei saw this stitch pinched.
"Lin Gongzi didn't know." Rui Rui whispered and whispered, "My brother's concubines actually gave him more than twenty children, but either accidentally or died of illness, countless deaths, and finally live. Until now, there are only six. "
Lin Rufei listened in silence.
"These things are commonplace, and I've been used to them." Rui Rui said, "He hurts the third princess. He thinks the third princess is like her. Do you know who she is?"
Lin Rufei said: "... white ... rabbit?"
Daytime Rui pressed a smile: "Yes, that white rabbit." He waved, "She is also a wise man, no, it is a wise rabbit. She is less courageous than anyone. If you do n’t see something right, you can slip away. My brother used it. Every effort was made, but Ladull could not come back. "
Lin Rufei saw that he was about to go to the room, frowned, "What do you mean by saying this to me?" He still didn't understand what these words said during the day had something to do with the needles in the doll.
Tian Tianrui said: "I said this, but I feel that if something can't be changed, it's better to be confused. You see, the third princess is a poor little girl in the eyes of her father, so let her go on. After all In some cases, she is indeed a poor child. "
Lin Rufei finally understood.
The iron box was placed by the three princesses under the plum tree. The three princesses did not use trivialism, so there were no traces left. But the use of trivialism does not mean that she has no resentment in her heart. She is complaining about someone, and even hate the needle into the doll's body one by one. During the day, Rui took out the needle, just didn't want Bai Jinglun to know the dirty things hidden in his beloved daughter's heart, and just wanted to leave his brother a clean and innocent girl.
Lin Rufei fell into silence, and once again he saw the complexity of human nature with his own eyes.
After entering the room, a few people sat down and Xuan Qing checked the iron box again, affirming that this thing had nothing to do with trivial victory. When Bai Jinglun heard the words, he gently put things away and said that when the princess woke up, he would return it to the princess himself. During the day, Rui smiled and said, "Brother, why did you relax? If the matter was not done by the princess, the culprit has not yet been found. You are so anxious to do something happily."
Bai Jinglun was surprised: "So too."
"The monk had some clues," Xuan Qing said with her hands folded, smiling, "but it will take some time."
"Oh, what's the clue?" Bai Jinglun asked.
Xuan Qingdao: "It's not good now, I'll wait for it, let's tell the Lord."
Bai Jinglun trusted Xuanzang so much that he didn't question him, so he nodded in agreement.
After a busy morning, when it was time for meals, Xuan Qing found an excuse not to have meals with the two brothers of the Bai family and pulled Lin Rufei out of the palace to open a small stove.
Sitting at the table, Xuan Qing was obviously a little hungry. When Su Zhai came up, she got up quickly and urged Lin Rufei to chat and eat from time to time.
Lin Rufei didn't have a high appetite. He ate the food in front of him one by one, saying, "What important discovery did Master Xuanqing really make?"
Xuan Qing said: "I found it, there must be." Who knew that he sighed, showing a headache, "but I really don't want to mix things into his house."
Lin Rufei said: "Li Chu?"
Xuan Qing nodded.
"The case of Li Chu has something to do with the attack on the prince?" Lin Rufei wondered. It stands to reason that this thing is so powerful, if it has something to do with the royal people, it should have been started, where do you need to wait till now.
Xuan Qing continued: "I asked the princes carefully about the situation on the day of the accident, and then compared with what happened to Mr. Lin's yesterday, and found a pattern."
Lin Rufei asked, "What is the law?"
Xuan Qing said: "It happened at night." He slowly said, "In fact, it is not unusual for this assassination to happen at night. After all, the guards will relax after night, and it will not be easy for others to detect. Just this thing. Come and go without a trace, and according to Gongzi, it is right in front of your eyes, but you still can't see him ... in this case, it doesn't seem to matter when to start. "
Lin Rufei narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking after Xuan Qing's words.
Xuan Qingdao: "In that case, why do you have to choose at night? Unless ..."
"Unless night is a necessary condition for it to appear." Lin Rufei said Xuan Qing's speculation, "But what does this have to do with Li Chu?"
Xuan Qing sighed: "Nature is related. Since it can choose its own time, it means that the behavior of this thing is not a demon's act, but a conscious choice. Now the people who are in trouble are the second and sixth princes. You Say ... who is the most suspicious? "
If the second and sixth princes die, of course, the current prince will benefit most. This is the easiest way to judge this matter. It only depends on who can benefit from this matter. This is indeed the truth, but Lin Rufei still feels that there is something strange about it.
"So it's intentional to say that the third princess is in a coma?" Lin Rufei knew that the third princess and the great prince were brothers and sisters of the same father and mother. "Is this method too risky?"
Xuan Qingdao: "True and false, false, everyone thinks that the three princesses have been seeded, and the person who starts will not be the closest prince to her. If you think so, the emperor will also think so." Folding her hands together, she sighed, "I grew up watching the third princess. She should be a good child, but who dares to say that a good child doesn't have his own mind? The emperor likes her and even likes the eldest prince ..."
This matter is indeed troublesome, and an accident can involve all parties.
Lin Rufei looked at Xuan Qing's lowered eyes, and suddenly said, "In fact, it is not difficult for Master Xuan Qing to solve this problem."
Xuan Qingdao: "Why is Lin Gongzi saying this?"
Lin Rufei thought for a while and said, "There is an inappropriate analogy."
Xuan Qing: "Huh?"
Lin Rufei said: "You see two ants fighting and wanting them to stop is a very simple matter. You just need to crush one. But if both ants are in your heart, it will be difficult. Get up, a careless, heavy method, the ants will lose their hands and even die miserably. "
Xuan Qing's taste: "Human life is like an ant, it is a good analogy." He was born as a monk and worshiped the Lord, but his eyes were not compassionate. Or, in other words, his compassion was different from ordinary monks, at least it was a matter of life and death. In his eyes, it's not that important. Some people live in this world, it might as well be ascended as soon as possible.
"I don't know if Master can talk about why he worked so hard for the Bai family?" Lin Rufei braced her chin, slumped Xuanqing obliquely, and asked her most curious question.
Xuan Qing smiled: "It's been many years ago, not to mention."
Lin Rufei knew that he was unwilling to speak, and he was not reluctant. He lifted the teapot to add a cup to the cup in front of himself, and then raised the glass and drank it to Xuan Qing. Xuan Qing also looked back at Lin Rufei. His eyes were always gentle and gentle like a spring breeze. He said, "What happened to Lin Gongzi when I encountered these things that are constantly being cut and chaotic?"
Lin Rufei blinked: "If it were me ..."
Xuan Qingdao: "Huh?"
Lin Rufei said: "If I would take the thing out first and make sure it would not harm people, I would just find an excuse to slip away." He put down the tea cup in his hand and said seriously, "Anyway, Rui should sit and watch the daytime. Jing, there is no time to arrest me. "
Xuan Qing heard the words for a moment, and then he laughed with his palms. I don't know the true face of the mountain, but because he is in the mountain, he is a devil.
Lin Rufei was not very interested in the royal affairs, but he wanted to find the trace of that thing earlier. He didn't understand what the word "Tianjun" evoked in his ear. Tianjun, a legend a century ago, was a mythical existence for him. So what does this myth have to do with this murderous creature who wants to take his life?
Lin Rufei couldn't wait to know the answer at this time.
"Is there any way to hook up that thing?" Lin Rufei was almost eating, so he put down his chopsticks and talked with Xuan Qing. "Since he made his third shot, there must be a fourth ... Master Xuan Qing "What do you mean by this look ..." he said, but noticed that Xuan Qing stared at him with a smile, and that look was a bit unpleasant.
Xuan Qingdao: "Lin Gongzi, did you hide anything last night?"
Lin Rufei stunned.
Xuan Qingdao: "Don't rush to deny it first. I don't ask what you're hiding, but just feel that the thing seems to be of special interest to you."
Lin Rufei raised an eyebrow slightly: "How do you say?"
Xuan Qingdao: "Look, the people who happened before were all the princes and princesses in the palace. As soon as Lin Gongzi came here, he immediately became a scapegoat. Do you say that things are of particular interest to Lin Gongzi?"
Listening to Xuan Qing's statement, Lin Rufei suddenly said nothing: "... It's true to say so."
Xuan Qingdao: "The way Lin Gongzi said, you can really try ..."
Lin Rufei understood the meaning of Xuan Qing, raised her finger to herself: "How do you know that it will come to me?"
Xuan Qingdao: "So just try."
Lin Rufei remembered the danger of being strangled last night and fell into deep thought for a moment.
When Xuan Qing saw this, he explained quickly: "If Lin Gongzi does not want to, I will not force it. After all, if this is not done well, it may kill people."
Lin Rufei bluntly said, "It's okay to try." If Xuan Qing guessed right, that thing really interested him, as long as he didn't leave here, he might be attacked.
"But if it succeeds, I have helped Master Xuan Qing so much. Master Xuan Qing should always compensate me for something." Lin Rufei said.
Xuan Qing nodded: "This is natural, I don't know what Lin Gongzi wants?"
Lin Rufei said: "Then listen to the story of Master Xuanqing and the Bai family."
Xuan Qing slightly pursed her lips and nodded slowly, "Yes."
Lin Rufei stretched out his hand at him: "Then it's all right, high-five!"
Xuan Qing also raised her hand and patted Lin Rufei's palm. The two palms were matched, and a light noise was heard, and a faint smile appeared on their faces.
The author has something to say: Lin Rufei: The third day of the senior's offline.
Gu Xuandu: Actually, I didn't go offline yesterday.
Lin Rufei: How dare you say that?
