Wishful Things

This is exactly what Xu Ming wanted to say.

In this world, there are some people who are gifted in a certain way. The reason why their traits are called talents is because they can do what ordinary people can't.

The same thing, in the hands of people with different qualifications, often has completely different effects.

If Qiao Bing should really have something to do with the matter of Princess Yan back then, it was inevitable that he would be silenced.

But if this person is a rare expert, it would be a pity to get rid of him.

Especially after using the scale...

At a time like this, letting him feign death, disappearing in front of others, and continuing to use it for himself in the dark is obviously a best-of-both option.

Thinking of this possibility, Xu Mingyi's mind once again flashed the prescription that he had seen in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

If Qiao Bingying is really still alive now, then this matter may not only be related to the matter of the former Princess Yan——

She has been thinking about the so-called "superior person" who might be hidden around the emperor and threaten her grandfather. Even if it is not this person, it may be related to this person...

The reason why Wu Chao specifically mentioned this matter to her was obviously because he thought of this possibility, but he didn't say much at this moment, he only said: "I will find out this matter as soon as possible."

Xu Mingyi nodded and asked him, "This Qiao Bingying, does he have any descendants?"

"There is a wife and a son." Wu Chao said: "But the mother and son moved out of Beijing with their family ten years ago, and the son has turned thirty but has not yet married a wife. He failed the exam twice. Now he is teaching in a private school in Fengming County outside Beijing."

With such a detailed understanding, it can be seen that the investigation is already underway.

While Xu Mingyi listened carefully, he felt that the situation of Qiao Bingying's son mentioned in Wu Chao's words seemed inexplicably familiar...

"In the past few days, I ordered people to investigate the details of Qiao's family, but there is nothing worth mentioning. I plan to go there in two days."

"I'll go with you." Xu Mingyi immediately said, "Maybe I can help."

She also wanted to find out about this matter as soon as possible.

Meeting those eyes, Wu Chao, who didn't want her to bother to participate in this matter, nodded almost subconsciously.

When he came back to his senses, Xu Mingyi was already asking: "Why is it two days later? Are you busy with other important things now?"

She is impatient, and Wu Chao has always been a person who will not procrastinate once he thinks about what to do.

It is true that Wu Chao has been busy with other things recently, but it is not so important that he cannot get away.

And the reason why it was chosen two days later was because of——

"Two days later, it will be the anniversary of Qiao Bingying's death." Wu Chao said, "According to the custom in previous years, the mother and son of the Qiao family will definitely go to the tomb to offer sacrifices. I plan to follow to see."

Death day?

Xu Mingyi's mind moved slightly, and he nodded slightly.

If Qiao Bing's death was faked, there might be clues in his closest family members.

When offering sacrifices in front of the tomb, there are indeed many things worth noting...

"Let's go there together in those two days." Xu Mingyi said, and suddenly said: "But Fengming County is still seventy or eighty miles away from the capital, if the Qiao family goes to pay homage in the daytime, we may be late, so we might as well go there a day earlier ? It’s better to prepare early.”

Listening to her talking about us one by one, Wu Chao still had no possibility of saying no, so he said softly, "Then we will leave tomorrow."

The two said something else.

After stopping to drink tea, looking at the young man sitting in front of him holding a cup of tea in one hand, and his every move pleasing to the eye, Xu Mingyi suddenly thought of asking: "By the way, you have stayed in Beijing for a long time this time. Now, the queen mother's birthday is too long, I think the Ningyang clan should urge you to go back, right?"

On the surface, he is the grandson of King Dingnan, but in fact he is the only son of King Yan.

No matter what his identity is, the Wu family must not worry about him staying in Beijing for a long time.

The king of Xiang committed treason, and the king of Yan was assassinated when he left Beijing. Although they only said that it was the work of the Zixing sect, the Zixing sect refused to take the blame for the enemy, so they drove out many works of art overnight. It's almost time to stand up and scold the emperor...

Judging from the wide spread of this matter, in the eyes of discerning people, it is obvious that the emperor failed to throw the blame this time, but was overturned by the Purple Star Sect with a three-inch tongue--a failure so great that it can be blamed by everyone. The big academy used it as a negative teaching material to warn students of the situation.

All in all, the current situation in Beijing and China is not stable due to the complicated situation.

But Wu Chao never said a word about returning to Ningyang.

"I know I have other important things to do, but I have never been urged." Wu Chao said without changing his face.

That is to say, I will receive a letter every few days.

"Other important matters?" Xu Mingyi was dubious.

She didn't believe it.

Really... isn't it because of her?

However, there was no clue in his demeanor, he nodded and said: "It's a very important matter."

He had promised Zhen Guo Guild to protect her well.

And if you can't even stay by your side, you still talk about protection without shame.

Although he knew the worries in the heart of his grandfather who was far away in Ningyang, he also had his own sense of proportion.

If Duke Zhen never returns safely, he cannot leave the capital for a day.

If it really came to the point where he had to leave, then he would definitely take her along, and it was absolutely impossible for her to stay alone in this dangerous place.

But none of these words can be said.

Once she said that, she would definitely drive him away.

This was just a small thing he was willing to do in accordance with his own will, and there was no need to say it to burden her.

Fearing that the girl in front of him would ask further questions, Wu Chao changed the topic in time: "The letter I ordered to be sent earlier must have reached the hands of Divine Doctor Qiu by now. If the Divine Doctor is willing to help, I will leave from Ningyang today. If you think about it, you can arrive at least five or six days later than Ah Kui."

Ningyang is nearly eight or nine hundred miles away from Dongyuan City than the capital city.

Xu Mingyi nodded.

She believed that if the genius doctor received the letter, he would definitely help with this.

...

The next day, Xu Mingyi went out early in the morning.

She used the excuse of going out of the city to offer incense. Her grandfather was away on an expedition, and it was normal for a granddaughter to offer incense and pray for blessings.

But she really was a incense burner, and the Ci Ling Temple outside the capital had always been full of incense.

It's just that after burning the incense, she didn't go back to the city, but quietly took Azhu to Fengming County.

In order to prevent people from noticing the strangeness, Xu Mingyi left a clone in the Ciling Temple to confuse his sight.

This "clone" is currently wearing an apricot-colored girl's skirt, with her palms on her knees, and she is sitting on a bench in the meditation room with a big face.

The maid at the side, Ali, couldn't help but look at it frequently.

In the past, she secretly felt that Uncle Yun was born with slender bones, so it was a pity that he didn't dress up as a man, but she didn't expect that she was really lucky to see it today.

Thank you Qinghan for your reward, thank you for your monthly pass, good night.
