Chapter 426: What Experience Do You Have?
a post house
in the room
Long Binger sat by the window and watched the crackling rain outside.
The sound of the rain was extremely chaotic, hitting the ground, and she was also disturbed when she heard it.
There was an inexplicable irritability in my heart.
It has been raining for two days in a row.
Half a day after she set off, it started to rain. Because of the heavy rain, the official road became muddy, and the mission team had to stay in the embassy and could not move forward.
We can only wait for the rain to clear before we go on the road.
At this moment, a servant came in with a tray in his hand, and there were meals on the tray.
The servant entered Long Binger's room and said, "Master Deputy Envoy, it's time to eat."
Long Binger casually looked at the food on the servant's tray and said, "Put it on the table, let's go out."
Ever since she left the capital and was unable to go to Andingbo's mansion for dinner, Long Bing'er's appetite became worse and worse, and she didn't eat well for two days after she came out.
...
In the capital city, the Sanju Division is still working diligently to solve the case.
It was rumored that the chief officer of the Three Jurisdictions would often spend the whole morning and afternoon discussing the case in the duty room without eating or drinking.
And the sound of discussion can often be transmitted to the courtyard through the windows of the room.
It can be seen that the head of the Sanju Department attaches great importance to the case.
It's admirable.
The deadline for solving the case is coming soon.
Palace of Qinzheng
Above the Great Hall
The atmosphere today is a bit depressing.
Li Xun, who was Zhou Guozheng's envoy, did not appear in the court at all, and only Ning Xin, who was acting as a messenger, stood up.
Ning Xin said: "Your country promised me to solve the case within 15 days of New Year's Eve. Now that the 15th day has passed, can your country find out the real culprit?"
The Emperor of Chu looked at the Minister of Criminal Justice beside him and said, "Zhang Aiqing, have you ever found out the real culprit?"
Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice cupped hands said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, since the day your Majesty told you to solve the case, I have been sleeping all night long, working diligently with the two adults in the room on duty, striving to solve the case as soon as possible, and when the discussions became intense, even boarding and lodging would be difficult." In the value room, dare not have the slightest slack."
The envoy Ning Xin couldn't listen anymore, looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and said, "My lord, anyone can say high-sounding words, as long as I have a result in the Zhou Dynasty, has Lord Shang Shu ever found out who the real culprit is?"
The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice sighed and said: "The murderer struck swiftly, treacherously and cunningly, and there is very little evidence left. It is difficult for me, Mr. Yan and Mr. Song to find out the real murderer."
Ning Xin's face darkened and said: "That is to say, your country has never found the murderer?"
The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs sighed, looked sincerely at the cupped hands of the Emperor Chu, who was above the high position, and said: "Your Majesty, although the minister and the two lords tried their best to solve the case, they still let the real murderer go unpunished, which is a failure to His Majesty's grace. Your Majesty, please condemn me."
The Minister of Dali Temple and Doctor Yushi also stood up, bowed and said: "I owe you the grace of God, please forgive me."

In the lobby of Andingbo Mansion
Li Xun stood in front of Xu Qing and said: "Brother Xu, when Li Xun goes back, the two countries may really meet each other in battle."
Xu Qing looked at Li Xun and asked, "Have you set a date to return to China?"
Li Xun said: "Tentatively scheduled for three days later, these days, thank you Brother Li for taking care of Ning'er."
Xu Qing waved his hand and said, "It's a little effort, you're welcome."
Li Xun said to Xu Qing cupped hands: "Brother Xu's kindness, Li Xun will always remember it."
Li Xun came and went quickly.
Because of his status, he couldn't stay in Andingbo's mansion for too long, so he only came to see Xu Qing this time, not Li Mingyue.
When he came this time, Li Xun mainly reminded Xu Qing to prepare Chu State and not to underestimate the enemy.
After Li Xun bid farewell and left, Xu Qing left the lobby. Su Qian, who was dressed in a light white dress, came over and asked, "Is Mingyue Little Sister leaving soon?"
Xu Qing took Su Qian's hand and squeezed it lightly, and said, "If there are no accidents, it should be three days later."
Su Qian let Xu Qing hold her plain hand, and she murmured with a sense of loss, "There are going to be fewer people in the house, so it's finally been lively for a while."
Xu Qing sighed and said: "People have joys and sorrows, which is beyond our control."
Su Qian thought for a while and looked at Xu Qing and said, "Little Sister Mingyue lives in hardship in that indifferent palace, why not let Little Sister Mingyue live in our house from now on, don't go back, it's better than that cold palace. .”
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "The concubine's princess is also a princess, and we can't keep it. If Little Sister leaves his elder brother to go back, then the sixth prince will be accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason for no reason."
Su Qian thought for a while, and said, "Why don't we do a fake assassination, so that outsiders think that Princess Mingyue was assassinated and died? In fact, let Mingyue hide in our house."
Xu Qing continued to shake his head and vetoed: "When a person dies, an autopsy is required. A deputy envoy must live and see the dead body after death, let alone a princess of a country? And Mingyue may not agree."
Su Qian wondered, "Why? That cold palace is nothing compared to here, so Mingyue Little Sister is willing to stay in that cold palace?"
Xu Qing said: "There is her only relative there, and no matter how nice we are to her, we are just outsiders. How can one month's care and company compare to ten years of blood and blood?"
Su Qian was silent for a moment, lowered her head, and said softly: "Mingyue has been suffering too much these years, is there anything my husband can do to help her? At least let her live better, so that she doesn't have to be bullied anymore, and... let her Some self-preservation."
Xu Qing embraced Su Qian in her arms, lowered her head to look at Su Qian and said, "Miss, are you reluctant to part with the bright moon?"
Su Qian closed her eyes and leaned against Xu Qing's chest, she was actually reluctant to part with any of them...
She was also a person who had been alone for ten years, and it was precisely because of ten years of loneliness that she cherished every friend very much, and she was not willing to let go of any of them.
But life is full of parting.
Just as the husband wrote in the que: people have sorrows and joys, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxes and wanes.
Bing'er is okay, with her family background, she has no worries about food and clothing in this life, and she herself is also highly skilled in martial arts, so she doesn't have to worry about being bullied.
But Mingyue was worried. Although she had the most prominent family background, she also had a group of the most cold-blooded relatives.
Xu Qing kissed Su Qian lightly on the forehead, and said, "My husband knows."
Although the two are already an old couple, Su Qian has never asked Xu Qing to do anything. This is the first one.
ah? You said you still have children?
sorry.
Regarding this matter, Su Qian never asked.
From the very beginning when I had this idea, I used violent means to force Xu Qing to submit.
...
second day
Andingbo Mansion Lobby
Li Xun walked in, looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Brother Xu, do you need me here for something important?"
At this time, Li Xun was leading the mission to pressure and threaten the court of Chu to protest, and now he, the envoy, should represent Zhou's attitude.
It would be a great risk to come to see Xu Qing, a courtier of Chu State, at this time.
Xu Qing looked at Li Xun, didn't say anything more, and asked directly: "Brother Li, how sure is he of winning the throne when he returns this time? I want to be honest."
Hearing this, Li Xun smiled wryly and shook his head, "To be honest, it's the first time I've done this kind of thing, so I'm not sure."
