Lantian didn't know if he was really trapped in the hut by the laxative, but he didn't appear again in the morning.
Xie Songhua sat in a daze for a long time. She took out the poisonous pill she discovered for the first time, and then wrote out all the discoveries one by one in order, and combined them with each occurrence.
When she realized that a piece of paper was almost full, the wrinkles between her eyebrows became tighter.
Because she suddenly discovered that the original epidemic even had traces of people from southern Xinjiang.
So, if it is really the royal family of Southern Xinjiang that is behind the scenes, does it mean that perhaps they were already making plans when Emperor Taizu pacified Southern Xinjiang?
Xie Songhua had a headache.
She was just an ordinary doctor. Even though she lived in an environment like that of later generations, she began to study history and politics very early, but it was only in writing.
She really has no contact with these so-called national and political schemes.
Facing the contents on this piece of paper, she felt dizzy.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.
Since people from Southern Xinjiang started planning so early, then...
Where are they staying?
What is the most likely outcome of their conspiracy that has been carefully laid out for many years?
It must be something beneficial to Southern Xinjiang!
At the moment, Daqi can't be considered to be in peace and prosperity, but it can be considered to be a state of surrender from all over the world. Although there are occasional minor frictions with neighboring countries at the border, it is still generally peaceful.
Occasionally, for a year or two, trade and transportation with surrounding countries will be established.
So what exactly does Nanjiang want to do?
Can their current methods cause civil strife in Daqi?
Xie Songhua couldn't help but think of that palace incident.
It was said to be a palace change, but it was indeed a bit scary at the time.
But in the end, this incident seemed like a farce.
A prince died and a chief minister left.
Then what?
Then play music and dance...
Xie Songhua's eyes finally fell on a person's name.
The man was at the top of the paper. Xie Songhua looked at him and fell into deep silence.
Emperor Yufeng.
This emperor looks a little out of place.
That palace change started because of Emperor Yufeng's serious illness and ended with his bizarre recovery.
The most important thing is that he has the Zimu Gu, and the person corresponding to him is Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu is responsible for the important tasks of the empire's border defense.
At this moment, Xie Songhua felt something flash through her mind, but the thought went so fast that she couldn't react for a while.
Just then, there was some noise outside, which interrupted her thoughts. She wanted to take it back but she couldn't do it anyway.
She rubbed her sore temples and suddenly remembered something important, so she had to ask Xiaoqing to help call Huang Zicheng over.
Xie Songhua has always avoided taking the initiative to contact people under Xiao Yu, especially those who hold positions.
Because she feels that she is just an ordinary person. Even if she is now named Princess Chen, she is still an ordinary person.
Take Huang Zicheng, for example, he is a fourth-rank Jinyiwei commanding officer and a serious court official.
She asked people over casually, which seemed a bit disrespectful.
But she felt that she couldn't delay what was going on today.
"Commander Huang should have always known about Lantian, right?"
Huang Zicheng did not hesitate and nodded: "Yes, Jin Yiwei has been investigating this person's affairs, and so far, it is still going on."
"Then..." Xie Songhua hesitated for a moment, thinking about the words, "Jinyiwei and Dongchang have never dealt with it. Is it possible that the things you are investigating can easily attract Dongchang's attention?"
Probably because he didn't expect Xie Songhua to talk about this, Huang Zicheng was stunned for a moment before nodding and smiling: "To be honest, it's true. We haven't dealt with each other for many years. It can also be said that you have me and I have you.
Most things cannot be hidden from the other person’s eyes.”
After receiving this answer, Xie Songhua was a little worried. She subconsciously glanced at Dongkuayuan behind her, and finally asked, "Then... was the investigation about this person deliberately hidden from Dongchang?"
Huang Zicheng looked slightly stern, "What did the princess discover?"
Xie Songhua shook his head slightly, "It's not clear yet, but... I think this person may have a lot to do with it."
"The prince has ordered that this matter should be investigated carefully. Although it has been investigated before, it was investigated together with other cases. If not for special attention, it probably would not have been discovered."
"I think this person may be related to the palace." Xie Songhua thought for a while and added, "Of course this is just my judgment, you..."
"Don't worry, Princess!" Huang Zicheng smiled slightly, "Since you have found a problem here, no matter whether it is true or not, we should be more cautious. It is also our dereliction of duty to need the Princess's reminder."
Xie Songhua was somewhat embarrassed to say this. In this regard, she was just a layman. No matter what she was doing, she was most afraid of having an outsider guide an expert.
If it weren't for her identity as Princess Chen, Huang Zicheng wouldn't actually have to listen to her opinion at all.
Even though she felt guilty, she was still nervous when she thought about that possibility, so she spoke again, "By the way, could you please give me a file about the eldest princess's consort's house?"
She was originally thinking about how to explain, but she didn't know that Huang Zicheng agreed without saying a word.
Seeing her hesitation, he smiled and explained, "The prince has already said that if the princess needs anything, we just need to cooperate."
This is the privileged class!
Xie Songhua didn't say anything more, just thanked him softly.
After sending Huang Zicheng away, Xie Songhua still felt uneasy, but apart from the Jin Yiwei in Xiao Yu's hands, she didn't know who else she could trust.
Originally, there were some things that could be helped by Jun Mo Zui's people, but now the matter was deeply involved, and she didn't know who the person behind Jun Mo Zui was, so how could she dare to negotiate with them too deeply?
After much deliberation, she could only find Xie Langhua.
Since Xie Yuncang became the first assistant, Xie Langhua has rarely been in the capital. Probably to avoid suspicion, he was transferred to the Metropolitan Procuratorate as a supervisory censor. During this time, he was almost always patrolling the local area.
I just returned to Beijing a few days ago because of Xie Tu's affairs, and I will probably leave again in a few days.
Counting it all together, since marrying into Prince Chen's Mansion, my brother has not come to thank Wen Hua more often.
Probably because he was wandering around outside, Xie Langhua became darker and a lot thinner.
A pair of hands stretched out, but they were still a little rough.
Seeing her eyes falling on his hands, Xie Langhua smiled slightly, "In the past, I only stayed in the capital, and was served by slaves. I had no idea how the people lived down there.
It was only during this period of time that I worked incognito among the people and realized that every drop was hard-earned, but even so, the exploitation from above was layer upon layer without any mercy."
"Grandma was still worried about my brother's marriage!" Hearing his tone, Xie Songhua couldn't help but smile and said, "Looking at the second brother, it seems that he has no idea at all."
"My eldest brother hasn't even gotten married yet, so why is it my turn?" Xie Langhua waved his hand, "I plan to wait until the year of Beijing Chao is over, then I will find a place for my son to be sent abroad, and choose a place far away from the capital.
, be a county magistrate."
I was about to say that this was impossible, but looking at the strong look on his face, I couldn't say that.
Thinking about Xie Yuncang's temperament, I have no idea that this will really happen.
So she stopped continuing this topic and asked about today's focus, "Second brother used to have a lot of friends in the capital. He should be very familiar with the preferences of these talents in the capital, right?"
