The next day, it was still cloudy, but it didn't rain again.
The sky was overcast.
Qi Yu fulfilled his promise and buried Princess Sichuan in a dignified manner. On her grave, there was neither a stone tablet nor a wooden sign, only a pile of desolate loess.
She committed suicide by taking poison. Her death was sudden and painless.
When Fang Qiyu noticed it, she was already close to dying.
This... is so strange!
Her hands and feet were obviously bound, so where did the poison in her mouth come from?
Perhaps, only Princess Chuan herself knows the answer!
Before closing the coffin, Qi Yu specially found a wooden comb and helped her tie her hair into a bun, fulfilling his promise to the end.
"Princess, rest in peace and remember to be a good person in the next life!"
"..."
In Qi Yu's opinion, Princess Sichuan really deserves to die!
Yes, for her own selfish desires, she created and incited two disasters, killing so many kind people, and even death would not be enough to cover up her guilt.
However, she was a very pitiful person. Her husband died, her family was gone, and she didn't even leave any heirs. Now that she's dead, she can't even enter the ancestral temple.
What does she want to do with her life?
In the final analysis, it is still the desire for power that is at work!
Is the queen of the tetrarchy really that good?
To put it more bluntly, wouldn't it be better to walk out of the small prison of the palace and then step into a big prison?
Alas!
It is now known that all of this was set up by King Yan, and he was the real culprit behind this series of events.
In other words, only by finding a way to kill King Yan can he truly avenge his family.
However, it is not that easy to kill him. Not to mention myself, even the emperor can only stare at him?
Speaking of King Yan, Qi Yu remembered something.
Those were the three bad strategies that the emperor shouted out in public during the Zhengdan court meeting.
Could this be the emperor's response to King Yan's promise to enfeoff?
To put it in layman's terms, that is, you want to cede my land, but I go against it. Isn't this a direct confrontation?
Then, who is the emperor shouting to?
Of course it won't be King Yan. You can't stun him with a marshmallow-level hit like this, but its real intention should be to target the vassal kings, which means knocking the mountain to shake the tiger.
Thinking of this, Qi Yu not only frowned.
Alas, the waters in this officialdom are much deeper than I imagined.
Especially, after learning the secrets of the present, the feeling becomes more obvious.
Closer to home, there are still two unsolved mysteries.
The first one is about the death of the late emperor. According to Princess Chuan’s previous report, this matter is definitely related to King Yan. To put it more bluntly, it refers to the hidden line he planted in the palace. However, Who could this person be?
However, Qi Yu doesn't care much about this matter, and he doesn't want to know too much. Sometimes, curiosity kills not only cats, but also people.
The second mystery refers to the "Cricket Picture". From Princess Sichuan's explanation, it is not difficult to infer that the mysterious master she mentioned is most likely Mr. Wenzhu. In other words, it is very likely that Mr. Yongchuan King intercepted and killed Prince Li Liangji.
So, here comes the problem.
The husband did not directly contact the prince at that time, so how did he convey the information to the prince?
The only potential connection is the two medicinal herbs in the picture. Other than that, I really can't think of anything else.
Um! Those two herbs definitely hold special secrets!
It's a pity that time has passed and I have forgotten the specific appearance of those two herbs. Otherwise, I could have drawn them and asked the doctor to solve this doubt.
But it doesn’t matter, if you want to solve this mystery, you have other ways!
…
On this day, the rain stopped and the wind stopped, and the sky cleared the clouds and revealed the sun.
Now you can return to Beijing and resume your life.
Don’t want to play for two more days?
Can't play anymore!
Although this kind of business trip has no time limit, Qi Yu didn't dare to stay too long.
Because there are urgent things to do right now!
King Yan is already planning to rebel. How can he dare to waste time on a major event of this level?
We must report it to the emperor as soon as possible!
This is not to say how loyal he is, but once trouble occurs, a large number of people will suffer, and even people like the second uncle will die violently.
People are precious!
So without further ado, we must return immediately.
Hit the road!
Unlike when we came, there was one more person among the entourage on the return trip.
In addition to Huang Fei, he also followed the Liangshan hero Tong Yanhuo.
Because, he bowed to the front!
According to Tong Haohan's own words, from now on, he will hang out with Mr. Qi.
In fact, Qi Yu asked for this matter, not because he took the initiative.
It goes like this.
Yesterday, Tong Yanhuo unintentionally revealed his future plans. Now that his mother has passed away, he has no one to worry about anymore, so he plans to travel far away and find a livelihood at the canal wharf. .
Qi Yu felt that, considering his martial arts skills, doing such mundane work was too wasteful. He could have relied on his own skills to find a slightly more respectable living.
Qi Yu felt that it was too unfair to ask him to fight against the big guy.
He is his savior, why don't you give him a hand?
So Qi Yu made up a set of rhetoric.
He lied that the public security in the capital was not good, and that he had been looking for someone who could look after his home and care for his home. Now he happened to meet a good person, so he asked him if he would be willing to do it.
Moreover, Qi Yu emphasized that this was by no means a master-servant relationship, but an employment system. If he was not satisfied with his work, he could leave at any time.
Unexpectedly, Tong Yanhuo agreed without even thinking.
How do you understand home care and home care?
Isn’t it just to beat up the bad guys?
Well, this is what a real hero has to do, and it is indeed much better than fighting against a big guy.
So, the matter was settled.
As they gradually got to know each other, Qi Yu learned that Tong Yanhuo was a person with extraordinary talents but incomplete destiny.
Let’s hear the details.
Being gifted means that he has outstanding physical fitness in martial arts.
According to him, his ancestor was a famous general in the Song Dynasty, and then he took off his armor and returned to the fields to live a life as a farmer. The martial arts of his Tong family were also passed down from generation to generation, but they became somewhat withered later on. However, by his generation, He has achieved something again, thanks to his good muscles and bones.
As for the incompleteness of fate, it can be divided into two aspects.
The first aspect is that his family is relatively poor and he missed a good opportunity to read and write when he was young, so now he has to do some odd jobs to survive.
The second aspect refers to his six deficiencies. He was infected with the serious disease of gills when he was a child. He delayed the treatment because he had no money for treatment, and finally ended up with the sequelae of infertility. It is for this reason that his mother changed his name to "Yanhuo", which means she hopes to continue the incense.
Qi Yu felt that Tong Yanhuo was an honest and pitiful person with a bad fate.
However, he has a good mentality and never complains about others.
Qi Yu admired this very much.
Tong Yanhuo didn't have much luggage with him. According to him, he only picked out a few clothes with relatively few patches. Other than that, there was only the cricket.
With Tong Yanhuo crossing the same boat, Huang Fei felt a little depressed.
What do you say?
This old hat is not a gentleman, he likes to roll up his sleeves at every turn, which is very annoying.
But the problem is, I don't dare to say it, and I can't beat it again and again. It's really heartbreaking.
It felt like a jackal encountering a fierce tiger. Although he also had a pair of sharp claws, he didn't dare to show off at all.
Blacksmith need its own hardware!
They have real abilities.
But he heard from Qi Yu that all those Donglu people that he couldn't defeat despite his life were all beaten by Tong Yanhuo in an instant.
In this regard, he had only one word: Convinced!
