417 Coincidence?
"At that time, there was a guest in the backyard of the temple, facing the father and daughter. The daughter was thirteen years old and liked to sing under the tree. We were afraid that she would disturb the repair, so we advised them to move away. But because they are poor, they have nowhere to go. To make matters worse, the father died of illness not long after. Just as we had nothing to do, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy came to the temple that day. First, he talked to the girl, and then came to find a poor monk.
"He told the poor monk that he could pick up the girl, but he wanted to buy the two magnolia trees in our temple."
"He wants to buy a tree?" Xie Wan was surprised.
Up to now, she has guessed that the teenager is likely to be Mr. Qi. The girl obviously has no relatives. Why did he come to pick her up?
"Not bad." Yuan Qing nodded and said, "The poor monk still remembers that the young man was thin and seemed to have a weak disease, and he was not familiar with the girl, but he seemed to be very affectionate. The two trees were neglected after the death of the old abbot, and the situation began to be worse than before. The poor monk saw that he did not look like a bad man, and heard that he knew very well how to plant them, so he thought that instead of staying and dying, it would be better to give them to the predestined person and give them to him.
"However, the poor monk was also puzzled at that time that the monk was compassionate, and he was afraid that the girl would suffer losses, so he asked them a few questions and left his residence. I don't know if it's useful for the prince and princess.
"Oh?" Hearing the end, Xie Wan immediately cheered up, "I don't know where to live?"
Yuan Qing took out Zhang's old paper from his sleeve and said, "That's it."
Xie Wan immediately took it over. As soon as his eyes fell, the handwriting on the top pierced her eyes like a needle! This is Mr. Qi's handwriting! I don't know if he has left his name?" She then asked.
Yuan Qing thought for a moment and said, "He didn't say anything, but the poor monk accidentally heard the people around him call him the fourth master."
"Fourth master?!"
Xie Wan's eyebrows suddenly condensed.
Fourth master, what a coincidence?
"Zhou Nan prepares the sedan chair and go to the oil tea alley!"
She suddenly stood up and ordered, and then said to Yuan Qing, "Since the master is here, it shows a lot of benevolence. Please go to this place with me to see if he can confirm the where these two flowers and trees go!"
"But at the command of the princess." Yuan Qing put his hands together and stood up.
Half an hour later, the honor guard of the royal palace turned into the oil tea alley.
This seemingly inconspicuous three-entry small yard is cleaned up, the stone tables and stone stools are complete, and the two red plums in the front yard have been opened, and they look as red as blood in the clear sky.
This yard was actually within the previous search of Wu Kui, but now it comes in with another mood, and the atmosphere is different from before. Previously, it was to search for the whereabouts of Mr. Qi, but now in order to reveal his true identity, Xie Wan waved his hand to Xing Zhu: "Take people everywhere inside and outside to search, especially where to hide things."
After Xing Zhu went down, Xie Wan looked at Yuanqing, entered the hanging flower door with him, and then stepped into the inner courtyard.
If this is really one of Mr. Qi's nests, then it should also be a place to stay often. Not only is the doors and windows painted very new, the courtyard has no weeds, and even the corners of the door frame are already very smooth. If it is a deserted yard, it is impossible to have such a situation.
Then I entered the main room. The house was fully equipped, but there was nothing, an empty bed and an empty bed, as well as an empty study and cabinets. Xie Wan looked carefully at everything here and looked back into the yard through the window. The two thick calves stood in the yard, leaving only a stump.
"Princess, these are the two magnolia trees!"
Liao Zhuo and others were responsible for the search of the magnolia tree in the whole city, and they already know the characteristics of this kind of tree. The last time we came to seal these yards, we didn't even see these two magnolia trees. Damn it!" Liao Zhuo regretted it so much.
Xie Wan walked to the two broken trees and saw that the fracture was very new. He guessed that it should have been cut off not long ago to hide his whereabouts.
"Now it is certain that the person who went to Donghua Temple to pick up the girl must be Mr. Qi. Mr. Seven is also known as the 'Fourth Master'--"
"Princess, I found something!"
In the middle of Xie Wan's words, Xing Zhu came out with half a piece of yellow paper and said, "It's a rune paper for the people to exorcise evil spirits and avoid disasters. There is a date of birth and eight characters on it. Although I can't see the age clearly, the date and time of birth can be visible
Xie Wan took the rune in his hand. Yuan Qing saw it from the side and said, "Although the poor monk is a Buddhist, he also recognizes this kind of rune of Taoism. It is a rune such as praying for disaster avoidance and disease prevention."
When Yuan Qing previously described Mr. Qi's face, he also said that he seemed to have a weak disease. That is to say, does this Mr. Qi really have a disease?
Fourth master, sick, about 30 years old, with a southern accent...
Several inspirations suddenly flashed in her mind at the same time! With so many coincidences, do you have any questions?
"Xia Zhi, let someone send a message to the prince. If he has nothing to do, ask him to go back to the house immediately, I have something important to discuss!"
Xie Wan ordered loudly, and then grabbed this rune paper with a life time and stepped on the sedan chair.
Yin Yu is eating tea with the prince in the East Palace. By the way, he also see if there is a chance to continue to investigate the case.
The prince doesn't think that's what he thinks. Maybe it's because he's in a good mood these days, so his body is also a little neat. As for the emperor's condition, he has dragged on for so long and encountered so many bad things. At present, it's really difficult for him to feel heavy anymore. Even if he shows pain, few people will believe it, right?
But he is not happy about the current situation of the emperor. After all, the father and son have been reading the books of sages since childhood. Even if he is about to ascend the throne, all he has in his heart is fatigue, not excitement. With a sick body like him, he will be in charge of this country, and he will not be in charge for a long time. At that time, he will have a new king who will work hard and lose money to ascend the throne. Therefore, he has a bold idea, but he still needs to discuss with the cabinet.
Maybe it will be better to discuss this matter when Yin Yu has annihilated all the chaotic parties. He thought with relief. Although he has been wronged by the emperor for 40 years in his life, he has such a capable son, which is really a happy and proud thing.
"I still have a lot of tribute tea here. If you like it, take it back and drink it. I take medicine all year round, and Chen Fuli warned me to drink less." He looked at Yin Yu gently and pushed two cans of tea on the table. He saw that he had been drinking tea all the time. He should like it, right? He really has too little time to get along with him in a father-son way, and he will cherish more in the future.
He doesn't want anything that should be cold-blooded as an emperor.
When Yin Yu heard him say this, he hurriedly said, "No--" But next, when he saw his eyes, he couldn't say anything of refusal. A faint warmth rose from the bottom of his heart. In retrospect, the time of sitting and drinking tea with him like this was unprecedented. The fatherly love he expected was at a glance at a glance at this moment, and his fading attachment to the palace began to return to him little by little.
This is his home after all.
Recently, the fact that Prince Hui'an died at the hands of the father-protecting husband and the Empress Xiaoyi made him feel very heavy and unpleasant. The Empress Dowager Xiaoyi was the one who killed her son to become the crown prince, and now the prince is precisely his father. He doesn't know how to get rid of this grudge and Our faults.
But the prince in front of him can make him forget these for the time being.
"Ap, when there is no tea in the future, I will come to ask my father." He smiled and put the tea bag in his hand.
The sunlight coming in from the long window fell on the square table, reflecting the warmth of the room.
"Your Majesty, the princess sent someone to send a message. If you have nothing to do, please go back to the house."
The little eunuch came in and reported in a daze. Cui Fu scolded, "You have no eyesight. Didn't you see your Highness talking to the prince?"
Yin Yu was also a little embarrassed, but he was not guilty and angry. It was not a sin for his daughter-in-law to ask him to go home.
The prince smiled and said to Yin Yu, "Go back. You have to come and sit down more.
Yin Yu nodded and nodded happily.
Back to the royal palace, Xie Wan had already sat upright in the room with his eyebrows.
Yin Yu put the tea on the table and said, "What's wrong?"
"We should be able to confirm the identity of Mr. Qi."
Xie Wan stood up and said confidently.
At this time, the palace of Anmu was very quiet. Even Yin Xu took a nap in the flower bed in the sun with the big yellow cat in his arms. No one knew what Xie Wan and Yin Yu were saying in the room. All he knew was that when they came out, the sky was already dark, and there was a strange light in their eyes.
After night, Xie Wan went to the Duke of Huguo, and Yin Yu explained Pang Bai a few words. After that, he saw Liao Zhuo and Qin Fang carrying their burdens and rode out of the door.
Dou Jin has been going up and down these days. When it was time to discuss things, he did things when it was time to do things, except that he was quieter than before, and he couldn't see anything. But this is also exaggerating in the eyes of outsiders, because Yin Yao died, and he was killed as a criminal to kill the king. As Yin Yao's quasi-yue family, this is the time of embarrassment.
So even if the Dou family has never shown the joy of other houses, no one has expressed surprise.
Mrs. Dou has not officially visited the door for a month or two in a row, and after the incident of Yin Yao, she did not show up. Perhaps out of a woman's intuition, she always felt that their days would not be peaceful until Dou Jin returned to the house silently that night, and she knew that her premonition would be confirmed.
Dou Xun is their nephew, and she is also another child she brought to her up. Before the age of six, they were all brothers. It was not until he went to Guangxi after the age of six that the relationship changed substantially. At that time, the old man was in the East China Sea. When he heard about it, it had been a year later. He didn't expect that Dou Jin would tell Dou Xun about the past, and he didn't even think of it. R1152
