    Qin Jiu looked at his face and seemed to be mixed, presumably the situation was not bad. In fact, with the living evidence of Shen Feng in the Bai family's case, it shouldn't be difficult to investigate.

    "Lian'er, how is the case going?" Qin Jiu personally poured a cup of tea in front of the durian.

    Durian was unwilling to drink tea, frowning and said: "The case is going well. The imperial call and sacred seal on the imperial decree forged by Su Qing have been found to be stolen by Imperial concubine Xian. Su Qing first presented it to His Majesty. The letter that proves the rebellion of the Bai family is indeed false. During your majesty's serious illness, Zhang Tinghai said that your majesty was poisoned and used Lathyrus odoratus to fight and detoxify. It has been found out that the aloe soup that your Majesty drank during that time has already been The detoxification of the beans and the use of poison to fight the poison were fabricated by Zhang Tinghai. Therefore, your majesty’s serious illness is not because of poisoning. Therefore, Situ Zhen’s wrongdoing is obvious. Zhang Tinghai has been close to Imperial concubine Xian over the years, and he has admitted this. It was the imperial concubine Xian's instigation, but the imperial concubine Xian has not been found until now."

    Qin Jiu has long known that the matter cannot be separated from Imperial concubine Xian. When the matter was found out, she still sighed. It is said that people should not be in appearance, Imperial concubine Xian is such a gentle and virtuous person who seems indisputable in the world, but he turns out to be such a person.

    Since Emperor Qing's gold medal was stolen on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Imperial concubine Xian has disappeared. Maybe she originally planned to show up after Yan Su succeeded in forcing the palace. Now that Yan Su has forced the palace to fail, she will naturally not appear again. These days, Qin Jiu also sent Suyi Bureau to secretly search for it, but found nothing. Qin Jiu believes that the last possible hiding place for Imperial concubine Xian is Green Parasol Mountain, where she has practiced for many years and is familiar with the topography of the mountain. Maybe she has arranged a hiding place long ago. It is not necessary to find someone on a mountain. easy.

    Qin Jiu frowned and knocked on the desk, and said in thought: "Imperial concubine Xian, don't worry, she won't disappear here, she will appear again sooner or later. How about Su Wanxiang?"

    Speaking of Su Wanxiang, Durian frowned and said, "Although she didn't visit King Anling, she heard that she was pregnant with King Anling's children, and she is considered King Anling's wife. Naturally, she was implicated and charged. When I went to Ye Ting and became a slave, I heard that the child was gone because of her excessive grief."

    Qin Jiu was startled when he heard the words, lowered his eyelids, and his eyelashes trembled like frightened butterfly wings. There was an unspeakable feeling in her heart. The child in Su Wanxiang's belly was gone. By the way, she was the culprit who killed the child. If Yan Su did not go to the palace, Su Wanxiang would not be sad. Excessive, the child will not be gone.

    Although it was only a child who had not yet been born, it was still a life. After all, her hands were contaminated with human life!

    "On the day of your wedding, the weapon in the dowry and the dragon robe found in the mansion were not made by Su Qing and Imperial concubine Xian. I suspect that Tianchen Sect was involved in this matter." Durian quietly said.

    Qin Jiu was not surprised by the durian speculation. If Tianchen Sect didn't intervene at all about the Bai family, she would never believe it. She just didn't know how Tianchen Sect and Imperial concubine Xian cooperated to deal with their Bai family, and who was that Tianchen Sect hidden in Lijing.

    "Have you ever interrogated Imperial Concubine Hui?" Qin Jiu asked with eyebrows. Imperial Concubine Hui has been in Lijing for many years. If Tianchen Sect also intervened in the case of the Bai family, the Imperial Concubine Hui should start with it.

    "Because of Tianchen Sect's rebellion, Imperial Concubine Hui has been sent to the cold palace and has not been arraigned."

    Qin Jiu frowned, with an ominous premonition in his heart. In the cold palace, I am afraid it is not safe. Although Tianchenzong's rebel scheme was defeated, Qin Jiu believed that in the deep palace, there must be people with Lian Yuren. Tianchen Sect has infiltrated the court for many years, and it is definitely not so easy to remove.

    "Lian'er, you immediately go into the palace to see the Lord and ask for the Imperial Concubine Hui to be arraigned as soon as possible. This matter must not be delayed." Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes and said slowly.

    After hearing this, Durian said nervously: "I just met your Majesty from the palace before I came here. He has allowed me to go to Lenggong tomorrow to interrogate Imperial Concubine Hui."

    Qin Jiu nodded, "You are doing a good job, and you must go to the trial as soon as possible tomorrow to avoid accidents."

    "I know, I will go to the trial tomorrow morning." Durian said, bowing her head, "Xuan...Sister, although the case has not been completed yet, the grievances of the Bai family and the Situ family are almost clear. I want to go. Outside the city, pay homage to them in a fair way.” The last time Durian went out of the city without permission, he was caught in a chaotic grave, so this time he came here specially and wanted to go with Qin Jiu.

    Qin Jiu put down the tea cup in his hand, only to see the tears of hope in the durian eyes, and he couldn't bear it. She sighed lowly, "Well, you go out and ask someone to arrange a carriage, and we will go together."

    After the durian went out, Qin Jiu called the loquat in and told him to send the letter to the follower Cai in the palace, asking her to arrange manpower to pay attention to Su Wanxiang's movements and to pay attention to the Imperial Concubine Hui. At least until Durian is arraigned by Imperial Concubine Hui, she can't get involved.

    With proper arrangements, Qin Jiu and Durian rode out of the city in a horse-drawn carriage. After driving for half an hour, they arrived at the graveyard in the western suburbs of Lijing. The two got off the carriage, walked into the woods, and stopped in front of graves smaller than the hills.

    There are thick clouds in the sky, as if raindrops would fall at any time.

    The two knelt in front of the grave and poured a pot of spirits on the ground.

    Durian cried silently in front of the grave. Perhaps, this was the first time he could cry loudly in such a long time. The yellow-haired sniffed the smell of wine in the air, then looked at the durian, crying thinking it was spilling the wine on the ground and not drinking it. It flew to the shoulder of the durian and said: "If you spill it, buy it again!"

    In the sky, fine raindrops fell sporadically, and I don't know whether it was rain or the tears from the heavens, falling on Qin Jiu's eyelashes, making her eyes wet. She slowly glanced across the graves, and said in her heart: "Aunt, father, mother, brother Wei, I have done most of my business."

    Qin Jiu helped the durian kneeling on the ground up, and said in a low voice: "Yi'er, don't be too sad, their spirits in the sky can rest in peace!" She took out a Jinpa and wiped away the tears from the corners of the durian eyes, and turned her eyes behind her back After a glance, he saw a carriage parked in the sky and grass, and someone came out of the carriage. Qin Jiu patted him on the shoulder, "Someone is coming, if people know that you come to pay a memorial service, maybe it will cause unnecessary trouble."

    Knowing what the trouble Qin Jiu was talking about, Durian straightened up hurriedly, turning his sadness into indifference. Loquat quietly walked behind Qin Jiu and whispered: "Princess Zhaoping is here to worship."

    Qin Jiu sighed softly and winked at the durian. Durian walked out of the grave without expression.

    Qin Jiu stood silently in front of the grave, with light footsteps behind him, stepping on the withered leaves, slowly approaching. She didn't look back, the sound of footsteps finally came close, and past her, a plain figure bowed down in front of the grave.

    The misty autumn rain floated silently, and there was silence between heaven and earth.

    Zhaoping walked to the grave bag with a bunch of chrysanthemums in her hand. She placed the chrysanthemums in front of the grave, spilled a pot of sake, and knelt on the ground for a few prayers, with a sad expression on her face. After the worship, she turned back to Qin Jiu.

    This is the first time Zhaoping saw Qin Jiu who was dressed in plain clothes and didn't use Fendai. If it was the red tear mole at the corner of her eye and the upturned corner of her eye, she could not see a trace of beauty from her.

    Qin Jiu at this time was beautiful and beautiful.

    If she had dressed up like this long ago, perhaps she would have recognized her long ago!

    Zhaoping felt sour, stepped forward to hug Qin Jiu, and whispered: "su su."

    Facing his former best friend, Qin Jiu smiled slightly. In fact, as early as that night when playing the piano, she knew that Zhaoping couldn't help it.

    "You are so cruel." Zhaoping stretched out his fist and beat Qin Jiu on the shoulder, and cried with a whimper. He kept deciding whether Qin Jiu's was wrong, "You can hide me so hard, why When I came back, I didn’t look for me, but I wanted to hide it from me. There are some things that I can help you. You have done so much by yourself, do you want to die? In the palace that day, I saw You embroidered, you should have recognized you, but now you think about it, you are really dizzy. Su su, why didn't you tell me, why didn't you tell me!?"

    Qin Jiu patted Zhaoping on the back and said in a low voice, "Okay, don't cry."

    Zhaoping wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes and stared at Qin Jiu, "Why didn't you tell me?"

    Qin Jiu stroked the corner of Zhaoping's clothes and smiled lightly: "If I told you, I'm afraid that even the rat in Lijing City will know about it the next day."

    Zhaoping was taken aback, frowning and exclaiming: "You, you, how many years have passed since you still can't change the habit of teasing me, do I have such a big mouth?"

    Qin Jiu lazily smiled and raised his hand and said, "I was wrong, okay?"

    Zhaoping then replied, "I know you don't want to reveal your identity now, and I won't say it. I am here today, but there is actually one more thing I want to ask you. Please go and see the second brother in the jail! He is...very bad now!" Zhaoping's eyes were filled with a trace of sadness.

    Qin Jiu's eyes dimmed, and he was silent for a while.

    Between them, there is nothing to say.

    It's actually pretty good to end this way, so why not meet again in grief. What's more, the child in Su Wanxiang's belly was indirectly lost because of her. What would she say when she saw it?

    "Zhaoping, your second brother and I, that's it. It's better not to see each other than to meet. Don't worry about this." Qin Jiu said indifferently. She didn't want to see him and didn't want to provoke those orders The melancholy old thing. Princess Zhaoping said anxiously: “That’s what it means? Don’t you know? The things that happened back then were all done by Imperial concubine Xian and Su Qing. The second brother didn’t know, and he was innocent. Now, he is already innocent. So, you should forgive him, what about seeing him in jail?"

    Qin Jiu sighed softly, "Zhaoping, it is better not to meet your second brother now. And you, speaking of it, should you meet Xie Dichen?"

    ------Off-topic ------

    I originally planned to write more about fighting with Imperial concubine Xian. However, Imperial concubine Xian and Yan Su are both prosperous, so Yan Su loses, and Imperial concubine Xian also loses. Next, it's time for Su Wanxiang.

    In addition, let me tell you about the publication manuscript. The word count of the two books should be within 480,000 words. I have written 530,000 words for this book. The publication manuscript asked for an exclusive special place. I found that the specified word count cannot be accepted. So there may be three books. So let me tell you in advance, but no matter how many books, they are all released together after the ending.

    The next update is on Monday.
