Ji Changan felt irritable and glanced at King Cheng: "Your Highness, King Cheng, do you want to eat something together?"
King Cheng smiled, knowing that Ji Changan had issued an order to expel guests, so he said: "No, I don't like fish soup, you can enjoy it slowly!"
King Cheng got up and walked out.
Song Tuanyuan nodded lightly to send King Cheng off.
Dashan sent King Cheng out.
When King Cheng's back was no longer visible, Song Tuanyuan spooned out fish soup for Ji Changan.
"Did I perform well just now?" Ji Changan was worried that Song Tuanyuan would hear what he said, so he quickly stepped forward and asked with a smile on his face.
Song Tuanyuan lowered his head to ladle the soup and said softly: "Yes, if I hadn't checked your pulse and found that there was nothing wrong with your body, I would have thought you were really sick!"
Ji Changan smiled: "I was just afraid that you would be worried, so I didn't control my pulse!"
Song Tuanyuan raised her eyes and looked at him: "You mean, you can also pretend to be sick?"
Recalling some strange medical conditions before, Song Tuanyuan frowned: "Do you know martial arts, how to regulate your pulse, and how to hold your breath?"
Ji Changan quickly said: "What I practice is external martial arts. Without internal strength, I can't do any of those!"
Song Tuanyuan snorted coldly, it would be strange if she didn't know it. It seemed that she had been deceived before!
"Hurry up and drink the fish soup. If you want to drink this medicine, you can drink it. Anyway, it is tonify the body, so forget it if you don't drink it. It is a medicine that is three parts poisonous!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Ji Changan looked at her: "Don't you ask me where I have been these past few days?"
Song Tuanyuan shook his head: "If you are willing to say it, you will naturally say it!"
Besides, she was just a relatively rare cook in his heart. It was also appropriate that he didn't tell her many things before. What was a master talking to a cook?
It was because she didn't put herself in the right position and thought that the relationship between the two was that of friends. She even fantasized that maybe Ji Changan liked her a little bit just because of her identity...
The more Song Tuanyuan thought about it, the more frustrated she became. She stood up and said, "I am now the head of the county and no longer a member of your house. I will not clean up these bowls and chopsticks. I will take my leave first!"
Ji Changan was stunned. Seeing that she seemed fine on the surface, but her eyes seemed to be filled with fire, he knew that Song Tuanyuan must have heard what he said to King Cheng, and quickly said: "Those words I just said to King Cheng,
It’s just to reassure him, don’t take it to heart!”
Song Tuanyuan lowered her eyes and said, "I didn't hear what you and King Cheng said, so naturally I won't take it to heart!"
After Song Tuanyuan finished speaking, he turned and left.
Ji Changan stared blankly at the woman's back and sighed.
On the night of the palace banquet, King Cheng found an opportunity and called Song Fuxin to the back garden.
When Ji Changan saw it, he followed him and hid in the dark.
King Cheng and Song Fuxin exchanged a few words. Although it was difficult to hear clearly from a distance, Ji Changan still guessed that the content of the conversation must have something to do with Song's reunion.
At the banquet that day, Old Man Hao asked the emperor for credit for the Song Dynasty reunion, and King Cheng was his assistant.
Ji Changan now suspects that King Cheng has noticed his feelings for Song Tuanyuan.
So recently he can no longer show off his tricks.
Now that I think about it, it is a good idea for Song Tuanyuan to move away. At least it can temporarily dispel the doubts of King Cheng and Song Fuxin.
Ji Changan sighed and lowered his eyes.
On the carriage back, King Cheng frowned.
Did he think too much? Did Ji Changan really just regard Song Tuanyuan as a cook? If the two of them had such a relationship, how could they have such an unhappy relationship after Song Tuanyuan was promoted to the county head?
If Ji Changan is acting, he can't have the entire Ji Mansion acting, right?
He saw with his own eyes the butler's cold attitude towards Song Tuanyuan at the beginning.
"Your Majesty!" The voice of the personal guard sounded outside the carriage.
The carriage stopped, King Cheng lifted the curtain, and a slim man in black clothes entered the carriage.
"Your Majesty, I am a spy from the Red Flag Camp. I found out that something happened to the Prince of Dishu Kingdom in Yucheng. I heard that hundreds of guards were all burned to death!" the spy said.
King Cheng's eyes darkened: "I told him to leave quickly, but he is... really dead?"
The spy whispered: "It is said that more than a hundred corpses were found at the scene. The clothes they were wearing were all the symbols of the Dishu Kingdom. Because they were burned so badly, it was impossible to tell which corpse was the Prince of Shushu."
, but now the Emperor of the Earth has issued an obituary notice and sent envoys to the Tianji Dynasty to investigate this matter. The Emperor has already sent Dali Temple to investigate this matter!"
King Cheng pondered for a moment: "Shu Se has great martial arts and is the number one warrior in the Dishu Kingdom. How could he be killed so easily? Are there any clues at the scene? Are there any clues?"
The spy shook his head: "The scene is almost burned, there is nothing left!"
King Cheng whispered: "Send people disguised as ordinary people to go to Yucheng. Such a big movement will definitely be seen by the people, especially those hunters, hawkers and so on. Let's inquire! In addition, notify the government and look for clues.
, offering a reward of a hundred silvers, firstly, we can show the emperor our determination to solve the case, and secondly, we believe that there must be brave men under the heavy reward, and maybe we can gain something!"
The spy quickly responded and left.
King Cheng returned to the palace and told the disciples about the incident in silk books.
Silk Shu thought for a while and asked: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter is not simple!"
King Cheng's eyes darkened: "You mean, someone already knows about my cooperation with the king?"
Silk Book whispered: "I'm afraid that's the case!"
King Cheng clenched his fingers: "I just wanted to find evidence to overthrow King Liang, so I compromised with the prince once and helped him leave Tiancheng. Unexpectedly, the prince wanted to die, but he still refused to leave.
It doesn’t matter this time, if you die, you’ll be clean, but I’m afraid…”
Silk Book nodded: "I am afraid that the person who killed Prince Shu will know about him and you, the prince. If this matter is known to the emperor and Prince Liang..."
King Cheng's face turned pale all of a sudden. Not to mention the position of crown prince, it would be a question of whether he could return to the feudal land alive!
His father usually seemed to care little about things, but in fact his methods were most vicious and his behavior was so weird that even he couldn't figure it out.
"Hurry up and find a way to find out who did it!" King Cheng said in a deep voice.
Silk Shu nodded quickly.
At this time, in Prince Liang's palace, Prince Liang also received the news.
"Good death!" King Liang couldn't help but clapped his hands, "This Shushu still dares to be in the Tianji Dynasty. There must be some conspiracy!"
Yu Kun said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness, Prince Liang, Prince Shu is afraid that someone will silence him!"
King Liang's eyes darkened: "You mean, someone was cooperating with Shu Se before he brought the human plague to testify against me? Then this person must be King Cheng!"
Yu Kun sighed: "So the one who killed Shu Se should also be King Cheng!"
King Liang frowned: "I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, but I didn't expect that I actually gave King Cheng a knife!"
Yu Kun clenched his fingers: "Your Majesty, the matter of the reinstatement of the lower official..."
