Chapter 30: Carved Yam
Princess Jiayi pursed her lips. She could tell that the little girl was beating her.
Xiao Prince Consort was so distressed that he quickly held the eldest princess's small hand with his big hand, saying nothing.
Zhao Shiqing watched with cold eyes. She actually saw countless clues between the couple's eyes. She wanted to eat the carrot yam made by her master.
Zhao Shiqing quickly turned away and secretly swallowed the saliva that she was about to choke on. When she turned her head, she was faced with Xiao Zhen's miserable face. The yam was as bitter as yellow lotus.
It turns out that bitter melons can also grow on melon trees. What the master said is indeed right. You need to go down the mountain for a walk frequently. The world is really wonderful. Queen Nuwa really put a lot of thought into creating humans.
Xiao Zhen didn't know that the little girl in front of him was already thinking a lot after just a quick glance.
Zhao Shiqing was upright: "How is Mr. Zhen's investigation going?"
Xiao Zhen came back early in the morning. When he came back, he did not come to see his parents. Instead, he sat in the open hall outside and watched the morning glow in the sky. Now when they heard Zhao Shiqing ask this question, Princess Jiayi and Xiao Prince Consort also raised their eyebrows curiously. Ears, they also want to know, but if their son doesn't tell them, they don't dare to ask.
Xiao Zhen opened his mouth, and half of Zhao Shiqing's body went numb.
She quickly looked towards the half-opened window so that she couldn't see Xiao Zhen's face. It wasn't that she judged people by their appearance, but Xiao Zhen's appearance of a bird flying over thousands of mountains really didn't match the voice.
In fact, after experiencing a life and death, Xiao Zhen's voice no longer has the clarity of an eighteen-year-old boy. His voice has a hint of indifference and looseness that does not match his age, but for Zhao Shiqing, whose ears are often poisoned by Xiao Su's drake voice. , this is the sound of nature.
Xiao Zhen said: "The damage to the original painting of the Holy Painting was man-made, and it was Li Wenlan who did the manipulation."
The warm smile like the spring breeze on Xiao Prince Consort's mouth was frozen on his face at this moment. His lips pursed, and it took him a while before he could speak: "Li Wenlan, Brother Li? This, how is this possible?"
Princess Jiayi's eyes flashed: "Let me just say, that Li He has a pair of triangular eyes, which come from his heart. He is not a good person at first glance."
The reason why Princess Jiayi dislikes this Li Wenlan is not only because of his triangular eyes, but also because of the flattering look on his face.
A noble nobleman like her, who saw too much of this flattery, was not happy about it.
Therefore, when Prince Consort Xiao's former classmate came to visit, she just nodded coldly and turned around to leave. On the contrary, Prince Consort Xiao had a lively chat with that person. After chatting about poems and songs, she praised the ancient and modern sages. From talking about the lotus in Daming Lake, to the continuous drizzle outside Yanyu Tower, to talking about getting excited, Xiao Prince Consort took out the original painting.
This painting depicts a lotus pond in the rain.
At that time, Prince Consort Xiao was still secretly rejoicing. Fortunately, Prince Liang was not in the palace that day, otherwise he would not have had the elegant pleasure of appreciating the masterpieces with Brother Li today.
Thinking of this, Xiao Prince Consort felt regretful. No wonder it was spring, but Li Wenlan turned the conversation to lotus flowers and drizzle.
"Azhen, do you believe in your father, Brother Li? No, Li Wenlan was not like this when he was young, and he is still a master of painting."
Xiao Zhen ignored him and continued: "Li Wenlan was lustful and had an affair with a woman who lived alone. Unexpectedly, he was jumped by an immortal. The man told him that you had an authentic painting of a saint with you and asked him to find a way to do it without anyone noticing. Destroy the painting, this It is as difficult as climbing to the sky with others, but it is easy with him. He just took advantage of you and put a few insects into the painting box. When you returned to Liangdu and took out the painting again, you found that the painting There are a few more wormholes.”
Princess Jiayi quickly corrected: "It's not several wormholes, it's one, only one wormhole." Xiao Zhen: "They're all the same."
Princess Jiayi quickly looked at Prince Consort Xiao. Prince Consort Xiao comforted her with his eyes, "Don't worry, it was me who made my son angry. All my mistakes were my fault."
Xiao Zhen continued: "Xiao Su has a servant named Jinbao next to him, and there is a servant named Xiubao next to his mother, who is also a scoundrel. Prince Liang is not in the house, so the failure to send the painting will be solved. He said it.”
Princess Jiayi was startled: "Xiu Bao? Who is Xiu Bao?"
Xiao Zhen: "He is a chamberlain, Eunuch Li's apprentice. He is twelve years old this year. He has been living in Wisteria Villa these days. I asked someone to find him this morning. He has already recruited them all. No one is forcing him. He is just for To make money, one message costs ten taels. By the way, mother, you have recently fallen in love with an actor named Huang Fengxian, right? He sold this message for fifty taels.”
Princess Jiayi.
She quickly defended herself: "That Huang Fengxian is Kundan, and she is a woman."
Xiao Zhen: "It's all the same."
Xiao Zhen said again: "Dad, don't look at my mother. You should change your habit of leaving poems everywhere. Why do you think the two scholars who wanted to give gifts appeared in that restaurant?"
Xiao Prince Consort is the man who is exploring the beauty. Although he has indulged in romantic affairs over the years, his wisdom has not been diminished. He immediately thought of something, and meeting his son's sharp eyes, Xiao Prince Consort had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "There is my ex in that restaurant. Two poems left over the years.”
He had been to that restaurant in his early years, and on a whim, he wrote a poem in the restaurant.
Later, when he was a high school prospect and the beauty returned home, he returned to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors. He passed through Liangdu and went to the restaurant again. He was shocked to find that the poem he had casually written in the past had been re-inked, and a sign had been erected next to it. Write "Where to Explore Flowers and Write Poems".

So Xiao Prince Consort wrote another poem for the restaurant.
When he came to Liangdu this time, even if he didn't pass by that restaurant that day, he still wanted to revisit his old place.
So they had already guessed that he would go, and had been sending people to follow him. When they saw him going in, the two scholars also followed him in, sat down next to him, and with a few seemingly unintentional words, they led him into the pit. .
Princess Jiayi and Prince Consort Xiao lowered their heads in unison, like two children who had done something wrong.
Xiao Zhen looked at Zhao Shiqing: "Li Wenlan and the woman have been silenced, but I captured the woman's husband, and Xiubao is now in the villa. The second lady can go see her at any time. As for the two scholars and the mastermind behind the scenes, I , Sorry, I didn’t catch it. However, the woman’s husband said that he had seen a effeminate man.”
Zhao Shiqing's eyes lit up at first, and then he sighed.
"There are effeminate men not only in the palace, but also in our Prince Liang's Mansion and your eldest princess's mansion. Unless we can draw a portrait of that person, but what if we can draw it? Who knows if that person is still there, even if he is He is still alive, and we can’t get into the place where he is hiding.”
Yes, they can dig three feet into the ground, but what about the capital and the palace?
There was a coldness in Xiao Zhen's voice: "Having said that, I still drew the portrait."
He took out a portrait and handed it to Zhao Shiqing: "I have a few more pictures. This one is for the second lady. The second lady wants to use it to practice flying knives or stab villains. In short, it is also a thought. .”
Zhao Shiqing: Those bullshit thoughts are from the enemy who killed his father!
