In the east courtyard of the Fang family mansion, Fang Zian and Qin Xiqing were sitting opposite each other and talking.

After a day's rest, Qin Xiqing's condition improved a lot. Especially after today's uneventful day, Qin Xiqing understood that Fang Zian's game had worked, and Qin Hui did not search Fang Zian's house. If he didn't come today, there would be basically no trouble later.

The meeting will come again. This made Qin Xiqing feel a lot more at ease. At the same time, Fang Zian's confidence increased even more.

However, because Wanchun Garden was confiscated and she learned that many people in Wanchun Garden were killed, Qin Xiqing was still very sad and her face turned pale.

Fang Zian told Qin Xiqing about Shi Hao's attitude when he went to Shi's Mansion today. Qin Xiqing was silent for a long time and said softly: "Zian, don't blame Mr. Shi for his negative thoughts. It is true that the current situation is very bad. No wonder he avoids trouble again.

The prince is under house arrest. Next, Qin Hui and the others will have to deal with you and Mr. Shi. I am afraid that the prince’s people in the previous court will also change their ways and change sides. "

Fang Zian nodded and said: "I know, but the more times like this, the more you have to fight hard. Killing if you push the neck is not a good strategy. I don't care what other people think, but I will fight to the end. If you stick out your neck with a knife, shrink your neck.

It’s also a knife, and the consequence of compromise is that others will cut you and I will be a fish, and I will never lie on the chopping board and let others slaughter me.”

Qin Xiqing said softly: "Zian, no matter what you do, I will support you. It's a pity that I no longer have the ability to help you. I can't help you with anything."

Fang Zian smiled and said: "Who said you can't help me? You are the motivation for me to do what I do. Seeing you, I have no reason to give up. Besides, this kind of thing is what us men should do."

Qin Xiqing smiled and said: "Zian, you are always full of fighting spirit. When you were in such a difficult situation, you were still optimistic and positive. Hey, I really regret it. It would have been better if I didn't drag you into this situation. You too

There is no need to face the current dilemma. I was looking for young talents for the prince, but now that I think about it, I have harmed you."

Fang Zian shook his head and said: "Don't think like that. If you don't pull me, will I join Qin Hui? That's absolutely impossible. Besides, people choose the path they want to take. You didn't force me.

, is my own choice. Maybe it is fate. Furthermore, if you had not gone to make friends with me, we would have missed it. That would be the biggest regret in my life."

Qin Xiqing looked at Fang Zian blankly and said softly: "Zian, thank you. I feel the same way. If I could choose again, I'm afraid I still have to see you, not for the prince, but for myself. I can't miss you.

.Even if I die, if I can get to know and fall in love with you, I will die without regrets."

Fang Zian babbled a few times and said: "Dajili City, Dajili City. What a place of death and life. Aren't we all good? We must not only live a good life, but also defeat the old thieves and achieve righteousness."

.”

Qin Xiqing smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll do whatever you want."

Fang Zian knew that Qin Xiqing only said this to cater to her, but she actually had no confidence in her heart.

"Xiqing, I have something to ask you." Fang Zian said in a deep voice.

"Just ask." Qin Xiqing nodded.

"Do you, Wanchunyuan, also have eyes and ears in Qin Hui's house?" Fang Zian asked.

"Yes, yes

Xiaoqin. In order to put my eyes and ears into the Qin Mansion, I made friends with a steward of the Qin Mansion three years ago. I dated him for a long time and gained his trust. Later I learned that there was a missing person in Qin Hui’s study.

A waiter, so he put Xiaoqin in through the steward. Xiaoqin was smart and quickly gained the favor of Qin Hui, so he got a lot of news. But this time, Xiaoqin should be unlucky.

Even if she is still alive, I'm afraid she won't be able to take any action." Qin Xiqing said.

Fang Zian nodded and said: "Awesome, you still have some tricks. Being able to place an informant in the Qin Mansion is already very impressive. However, that Xiaoqin has been serving Qin Hui for a long time, and he should have collected a lot of information and reported it to you.

Bar."

Qin Xiqing said: "It's quite a lot, but not much is useful. Otherwise, the prince wouldn't be so passive."

Fang Zian asked: "Is there any information about Qin Hui's relationship with the Jin people?"

Qin Xiqing was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, shook her head slowly and said, "It seems not."

Fang Zian was a little disappointed and was about to ask again. Suddenly Qin Xiqing shouted: "Wait a minute, it seems that there have been two times. I remember it was last spring, Xiaoqin said that there were some strange-looking people coming to the Qin Mansion.

They were extremely vulgar and smelly. They didn't look like people from the Song Dynasty at all, and their accent was very strange. But Qin Hui treated them like guests and even set up a banquet in the study to entertain them. After the banquet, Xiaoqin went to clear away the dishes.

When I arrived, I found that they were all large pieces of mutton and beef. They were all meat that had been boiled and sprinkled with condiments. No one in the Qin family would eat this way. According to Xiaoqin, these people should not be my Da Song Dynasty.

People, but whether they were Jin people or not, I didn’t think about it at the time.”

Fang Zian slapped his thigh and said, "That should be it. There were only two times in total? What did they say?"

Qin Xiqing smiled bitterly and said: "Xiao Qin said that when these guests came, she could not get close. Qin Hui took them to discuss secretly in the study, and then sent them out of the house. Not only Xiao Qin, but also the stewards and some other people in the house.

I don’t know.”

Fang Zian nodded and said, "I understand."

Qin Xiqing said: "Why do you ask these questions? Do you suspect that Qin Hui is colluding with the Jin people?"

Fang Zian did not answer her question and asked himself: "Is there a Getian Pavilion in Qin Hui's back house? Does Xiaoqin know what is hidden in Getian Pavilion?"

Qin Xiqing said: "Yes, Getian Pavilion is the place where Qin Hui hides antiques and treasures. The place is heavily guarded. Except for Qin Hui and a few stewards he trusts, no one else has gone in. Xiaoqin also tried to pry out.

, but there was no chance of getting in.”

Fang Zian mused: "Antique treasures naturally need to be guarded, but there is no need to guard them so tightly. There must be something shady hidden here. It seems that it is necessary to explore."

Qin Xiqing said in surprise: "What did you say? Are you going to explore Getian Pavilion?"

Fang Zian said: "I will tell you in detail later. Xiaoqin has been in the Qin Mansion for so long, she should have drawn a map of the distribution of the Qin Mansion's buildings."

Qin Xiqing said: "Of course, the drawing of the map of the Prime Minister's Mansion was one of Xiaoqin's tasks. Originally, the prince had the idea of ​​sending people into the Prime Minister's Mansion to assassinate Qin Hui. Therefore, the map drawn was extremely detailed. It ranged from houses to rockeries.

The corridors, flower beds, paths, etc. are all clearly visible.”

Fang Zian said happily: "That's great. This thing is very useful. Bring it with you.

Are you out yet?"

Qin Xiqing said: "This map was given to the prince. It is in the hands of the prince. Ling'er should remember something. After all, he planned to let Ling'er go in for the assassination, so he asked her to remember the map."

Fang Zian frowned and said, "That's useless. It seems I have to go see the prince."

Qin Xiqing said hurriedly: "But do you really plan to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to spy? You must know that Qin Hui's Mansion is heavily guarded, with a post every three steps, a sentry every five steps, and a large number of manpower ambushing in high places. There are hundreds of guards in the mansion alone.

The reason why we gave up the assassination plan in the first place was because we couldn't get into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and we couldn't succeed even if we got in. If you want to get in, wouldn't you be throwing yourself into a trap?"

Fang Zian said: "Xiqing, I might as well tell you my plan. I'm not going into the Prime Minister's Mansion to assassinate or anything, but I want to go into the Getian Pavilion to have a look. In the current situation, we must take risks. The only way to save it is

My lord, the way to reverse the situation is to bring down Qin Hui, an old thief. And the only way to bring him down is to prove his identity as a Jin spy. There are various signs that Qin Hui is definitely related to the Jin, but

This needs evidence to support. If Qin Hui really had a secret affair with the Jin people, he would have left clues and hidden letters and other things. And those things are probably hidden in Getian Pavilion. If I can get it

If we get these things, we can turn things around. This is my plan."

Qin Xiqing said in shock: "This... this is too risky, and... it may not be possible to find it. Have you ever thought about it, since Qin Hui is a goldsmith, he will be extremely careful. How could he keep the letters he exchanged?

It must be destroyed in his hands. Otherwise, wouldn't it be bad if he leaked it out? Even if he is really a Jin State spy, I'm afraid he won't be able to find what you want."

Fang Zian smiled and said: "I have thought about this. I guess Qin Hui will definitely keep those things, because the Kingdom of Jin changed dynasties, Wan Yanliang took the throne, and everything changed. Wan Yanchang and Wan Yanliang who he had previously loyal to

Yan Zongbi is also dead. He must keep these letters in the future as proof that he was sent to the Song Dynasty by the Jin people. For a man like Qin Hui, who is meticulous and thoughtful about Zhou Xiang, these letters are important to him.

Proof of the Jin man’s merits. If one day, the Jin man comes over, these are his capital. Of course, this is just my guess. According to common sense, it should be destroyed. But I don’t believe it.

There is nothing to prove that he is the work of the Jin. He will definitely hide these things well. Just imagine, with his current status and identity, who can bring him down? Who can go to his home to search for these evidences? All he needs is

Just hide these things, there is no need to destroy them. Unless it is necessary to destroy them, it is not difficult to destroy them again."

If these words had been spoken before, Qin Xiqing would have refused to believe them. But after this psychological game, Fang Zian had clearly guessed Qin Hui, so his words were now very credible.

"Zian, I still hope you will be cautious. Entering the Prime Minister's Mansion is no joke. It's not that Xiqing doesn't believe in your ability, but it's really dangerous. Xiqing doesn't want anything to happen to you. If something happens to you, everyone will be dead.

"Qin Xiqing said worriedly.

Fang Zian stood up, held her in his arms, and whispered: "Don't worry, I'm not a reckless person, I will treat this matter carefully. These are just my plans, they may not be implemented. Even if I decide to go
