Chapter 176 What do you think
The sky was getting brighter, and maybe because he had been taking a nap for too long, Chen Wangshu was still energetic.
The fire in the fire barn is full of fire, and the millet porridge has just been placed on the table, which is steaming, making people feel happy.
"Miss, it's all done. The snow outside has stopped. Should I catch the bird today? At this time, the bird is so stupid. Just sprinkle a handful of millet and you can catch it."
The stomping clouds nestled at Chen Wangshu's feet were startled by the whirring sound, and his little head was raised. When he saw that it was the silly second sister who disturbed her sleep, her head tilted and she fell asleep again.
Mu Ji widened her eyes and pointed at the clouds, "Girl! Have you seen it? This cat has become a sperm. No matter how I see it, it despises me! It feels that it is not Que'er, it is me!"
Chen Wangshu looked at her jumpy appearance and smiled, "You think so, that's it!"
Mu Jin pouted and looked at Chen Wangshu in disbelief, "Even girl, you joke with me! When I catch Que'er, I won't wake up. She doesn't want to play with her when she walks on the cloud!"
Chen Wangshu waved his hand, "Go and go!"
As soon as she left, the room became quiet again.
Chen Wangshu took the meat pie handed over by Yan Jue, took a bite, and squinted his eyes.
"Yan Jue, what do you think?"
Yan Jue bowed his hand and said pretending, "Sir, Yuan Fang thinks that eight of the ten sentences are true, and two sentences are false!"
Chen Wangshu touched the beard but did not have it, lowered his throat and thrust his stomach, "Which sentence is true? Which sentence is false?"
Yan Jue was amused by her, and she laughed for a long time before she became serious and looked out the door.
Bai Ci stood in the yard from a distance, directing the little girl to sweep the snow to the sky and the earth.
Unless this cat really becomes a sting, no one can hear their conversation.
"King Ping had a dissatisfaction, and formed cliques and private affairs everywhere in the capital to set up spies. They discovered the true identity of Duke Hu, and arranged Wu Hongshuang to Duke Hu, and came to Duke Hu to monitor and win over him."
Yan Jue said, his expression became cold, "The previous ones are almost true. But the position of Duke Hu Guoguo is vague and may not be true."
"There are two possibilities here. One is that since Duke Hu comes from a famous family and is indeed very talented, he may not be willing to live in a corner and be a shadow under the darkness. Or if there are any other interests in this, Duke Hu is completely likely to kill his wife and join the King Ping."
"This can explain why Wu Hongshuang immediately went up the mountain after my mother died; why he clearly went to Tokyo but did not hand over the defense map of the Sixteen states to the government through your father;"
"It's why, after my mother died, the court no longer had the intention of expedition, because there was an insider in the camp of the late emperor. It's why, for so many years, he let others talk about me, but he ignored me!"
Yan Jue said, his voice filled with anger.
Chen Wangshu picked up a chopstick and picked pickles for him, "Then why did he give us the key? My grandfather is dead, and there is no one insider in this matter..."
Yan Jue shook his head, "You are Chen Wangshu, so you know that there is no one in the know, but he may not know, because everyone in Lin'an City knows that you are the only one in the Chen family, who is raised under your grandfather's knees. You are very likely to know all his secrets."
"If Duke Hu knew where Xuanmen was located early in the morning, he would even suspect that your grandfather passed on the calculation method of Xuanmen to you. Then you must know the existence of two keys. If he didn't take it out, wouldn't it be suspicious?"
"This explains why he didn't give me the key, but instead gave you the key!"
Chen Wangshu thought about it and found that this statement could not be refuted.
Yan Jue said, rolled up his sleeves, "Do you still remember the bloodline that Mu Qingshan said? Let's ask him how the people from the Xuanmen recognize each other? He said there is some secret method that he doesn't know."
"We are descendants of Xuanmen. We are not attacked when we enter, except for the illusion that tests our minds. Then it may not be impossible. When the people next to us go in alone, they will see another world."
Seeing that Yan Jue became more and more confident, Chen Wangshu hurriedly interrupted: "According to your words, Duke Hu deliberately asked us to go to Muxiang and get the parchment rolls back. But why? We followed the trajectory he set, and this was not step by step. Did we discover that he might have betrayed the previous emperor and even killed your mother?"
"What's the benefit of this for him?"
Yan Jue stretched out his two fingers, "Madam Xi said that there are two secret treasure warehouses. Among them, when my mother was still there, the treasure warehouse was hidden by her using the Xuanmen secret method, and ordinary people could not find it."
"Key..." Yan Jue paused, and Chen Wangshu understood it.
The key should be the black and white jade ring left to him by Yan Jue's mother. This is why, since he was a child, he has been assassinated constantly. Some people do not dare to mention old things as Madam Xi said.
No longer covet the wealth that is enough to support the Northern Expedition.
The people in the palace never gave up.
"Where do you think my mother might have hidden things? I guess the clue is probably hidden in the parchment scrolls we brought back. Ordinary people can't understand it, but they think you are the heir to Xuanmen."
Yan Jue said, lowering his eyes, "He just needs to wait, let's find it, and then the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind."
Chen Wangshu hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head, "You said that this is just a situation. Unless Duke Hu becomes an emperor, there is no official position to be granted by the official family and no gold to reward! What is the use of that treasure?"
"This is indeed just the first possibility. The second possibility is that Madam Xi did not lie. Wu Hongshuang had indeed deceived Duke Hu before and became his second wife. He secretly investigated, discovered her true identity, and secretly reported to the previous emperor."
"The Emperor of the First Emperor ordered him to take advantage of the plan to find out the handle of King Ping's rebellion. Unfortunately, the last few years of the Emperor's reign, the disaster continued, and the court was in trouble. At that time, King Ping did not show his presence, but he had other relatives, so he was not honest."
"Before the late emperor had freed his hand, Northern Qi came to fight. Duke Hu could not bear to see the country and the family was destroyed, so he could not hide his identity and went directly to Tokyo to serve the king. As a result, it was already difficult to get rid of the tiger."
Chen Wangshu nodded. They had never met Duke Hu. They could not favor Yan Jue just because he was Yan Jue's father and a hero. He should not treat Yan Jue without even asking about his original wife and never mention his original wife, so he thought he was a very evil person.
"And one thing is certain, your mother's death must have involved a huge secret. So Madam Yixi was panicked when she heard this. Later, she even self-destructed something that she didn't need to say."
"This shows that the matter here is more afraid of her than her confession to the Queen Mother."
