359 Brainstorming _2
Xu niannian looked at his sister and father, who were eating porridge with their heads down, and asked, “”What’s going on?”
“Lingying ate a bun today. She spat out a mouthful after eating it. She said that she would be able to eat it forever,” Xu lingyue said in a low voice.
“…… Big brother taught you?” Xu xinnian’s mouth twitched.
Xu lingyue nodded.
“After Lingyin vomited, she felt that it was a pity and wanted to eat it, but your mother beat her up,” second uncle added.
Xu niannian was speechless.
He lowered his head and looked under the table, only to find that he had indeed vomited a lot of chewed bread crumbs.
“Big brother didn’t come home again today.” Xu lingyue said gloomily.
Xu Erlang and Xu Pingzhi said in tacit understanding, “”He’s definitely in the Academy.”
………
Xu Qi ‘an woke up in the back room of the Yamen. The large courtyard was quiet, and only an old official was sweeping the courtyard with a hunched back.
how long has it been since this blanket was washed? it has a strange smell. The public dormitories are garbage.
He lifted the blanket in disgust and got off the bed with weak steps. He pushed open the window and let the sun shine in.
This was the public dormitory for the night watchmen and the night watchmen on duty. Apart from Jin Luo, who had her own room, the rest of the rooms were shared.
The hygiene was not good, and no one knew how many people’s children and grandchildren were buried in the thick quilts.
Thanks to the elixir from the Directorate of Celestials and his strong body, the wound on his left shoulder had already formed a scab and would be completely healed in two days.
On the other hand, the energy from the heaven and earth One blade slash had yet to recover. He was as exhausted as if his body had been hollowed out.
Xu Qi ‘an poured a cup of tea and rinsed his mouth. He went to the courtyard to get a bucket of cold and clear well water. After washing his face, he went to the spring breeze Hall.
“Phew, so comfortable …”
After finishing the meal sent by the clerk, Xu Qi ‘an touched his bulging belly and lay on Li Yuchun’s chair in satisfaction, his feet on the desk.
It was only now that he had time to think about the assassination attempt last night.
“Usually, I leave the palace at five o ‘clock sharp. Yesterday, because I checked the list of people who entered the Imperial medicine room, I only left the palace after five o’ clock.
“It’s not strange that the assassins who ambushed me knew my way home. I take that path every day, but how did they manage to get the timing right?
“The night watchman is always on the roof, so the three assassins couldn’t have been lying on the roof waiting for me all the time. Otherwise, they would have been discovered by the night watchman.
“It’s obvious that they know when I left the palace … It was highly possible that the mastermind behind the scenes was someone from the palace; otherwise, this could not be explained.
“Is it the Empress? I just found some unfavorable clues about her yesterday, and she turned around and sent someone to assassinate me … You don’t want me to continue investigating?
“If it really was the Empress, then huaiqing and I can only divorce.”
Xu Qi ‘an pinched the space between her eyebrows.
At this moment, a black-robed official entered the hall of spring breeze. Seeing Xu Qi ‘an in the hall, he heaved a sigh of relief.”I went to the backyard to look for Lord Xu, but I couldn’t find him. I thought you had left the Yamen.”
Xu Qi ‘an still had his legs on the table, his eyes half-closed. I won’t go to the palace to investigate today. We’ll talk about it after I recover.
“Lord Wei is looking for you. You should go to the noble spirit building first,” the clerk said with a nod.
Ha, looks like Wei Yuan knows about the assassination attempt yesterday. He must be dumbfounded by my battle results … Xu Qi ‘an put down his legs and stood up from the chair. lead the way.
He followed the clerk to the noble Qi building and went up to the seventh floor. He didn’t expect to see two other unexpected guests in the tea room besides Wei Yuan.
The snow Lotus-like elegant and Noble eldest Princess was celebrating;The handsome and reserved son of Emperor Yuan jing, the fourth prince.
As huaiqing’s blood brother, the fourth Prince’s features were not similar to his sister’s, but rather similar to Emperor Yuan jing’s.
Huaiqing, on the other hand, was somewhat similar to the Empress. However, the mother and daughter’s temperaments were too different, so no one could tell that they were similar.
The three of them looked terrible. Wei Yuan held the teacup in his hand and lowered his head, not saying a word. It was as if he didn’t notice Xu Qi ‘an’s arrival. The fourth prince looked over and nodded at him.
Huaiqing also did not look at Xu Qi ‘an. He frowned and pondered.
“Duke Wei.” Xu Qi ‘an cupped his fists.
Wei Yuan raised his head and pointed to the seat beside huaiqing. “Have a seat.”
Xu Qi ‘an took a seat.
“Was there an assassination attempt last night?” Wei Yuan pushed the teapot to Xu Qi ‘an, signaling him to pour the tea himself.
Xu Qi ‘an poured a cup of tea and nodded without drinking it. “The mastermind behind the scenes is related to Consort Fu’s case. He is in the palace.”
“You suspect it’s the Empress?”
Wei Yuan’s words were too direct. Xu Qi ‘an didn’t know how to answer and looked at huaiqing carefully.
Huaiqing still didn’t look at him, looking like he had a lot on his mind.
The eldest Princess looked like a woman who was facing a divorce agreement … Xu Qian muttered in his heart.
“Today, His Majesty proposed to depose the Empress at the court meeting because the real murderer behind Consort Fu’s case is the Empress.” Wei Yuan said.
“???”
Xu Qi ‘an looked at him in a daze. The first thought that came to his mind was:How long have I been sleeping?
Why did she feel like she had slept for a century when she woke up?
He was the one who personally investigated the fu Fei case. Every step and every clue had been deliberated and fumbled out by him. He was still not sure if the Empress was the murderer, so what did Emperor Yuan jing have?
Did he think he was Conan or Di Renjie?
However, Princess huaiqing’s next words left Xu Qi ‘an dumbfounded.
“Imperial mother has admitted it.”
What are you saying?
