Chapter 1057 I hope I’m overthinking it
"Why does the regent want Bai Jing's body?" Jun Yuanyou asked coldly.
"It's true that he shouldn't have planned to frame General Yun, but he couldn't help it. Since the man is dead, there is no danger to you. I want to leave his whole body!" Gu Jiuyuan replied.
Jun Yuanyou didn't say anything more, but looked at Yunting subconsciously: "Ting'er, you decide?"
"It's just a corpse. Since the regent wants it, I'll leave it to you." Yunting said generously.
"Thank you, Crown Princess."
"The matter has been settled, so we won't bother you. We are here to visit Tianjiu Kingdom. We haven't walked around yet. My husband and I will not stay in the palace tonight. We will experience the customs and customs of Tianjiu Kingdom. We will leave in three days. "Yunting said.
"Okay." Ren Xuan'er said with some reluctance.
But she also knew that Yunting and Jun Yuanyou must have missed their two children after being away for so long, and Dayan Country was their home.
"Thank you very much." Yunting pulled Jun Yuanyou away and read a book.
Watching them leave, Gu Jiuyuan comforted him: "Xuan'er, it's Bai Jing's fault. Fortunately, the imperial concubine was generous enough to leave his body and let others bury him."
ren
"good!"
Gu Jiuyuan immediately asked people to bury Bai Jing, and then called his confidants: "Find out everything Bai Jing did during the absence of the King and Your Majesty, especially the person who arranged it!"
"Yes!" The confidant immediately went to do it.
After Yunting and Jun Yuanyou left the palace, Yunting immediately said: "Long Er, go back and keep an eye on Gu Jiuyuan to see if he really buried Bai Jing's body?"
Long Er suddenly realized: "Prince Princess, are you suspicious?"
"I hope I'm overthinking it. If he really has some ideas, he has to be on guard!" Yunting replied.
"The Crown Princess is really far-sighted. I'm going to the palace now to keep an eye on her." Long Er said in admiration, turned around and walked away. He dodged the guards at the entrance of the palace and flew up the wall to sneak back.
Jun Yuanyou couldn't help but give Yunting a thumbs up: "Ting'er is so smart."
"Then let's go next--" Before Yunting could finish her words, Jun Yuanyou hugged her waist and left with her toes on the ground using Qinggong.
The guards of the palace didn't even see them clearly, and they disappeared.
Yunting didn't ask, letting Jun Yuanyou lead her straight to a certain direction, and finally landed on the wall of Bai Jing's courtyard.
"As expected of your husband." Yunting admired him.
"Bai Jing is so cunning, I'm afraid that he may have a back-up plan or lay hidden dangers. Since his last words to Ren Xuan'er were about this acacia tree, we naturally have to come and find out." Jun Yuanyou explained.
There were only a few servants in Bai Jing's mansion, and since he left, the mansion has become even more deserted. Now it is late at night, and the servants have already fallen asleep, so naturally there is no one in the courtyard at this moment.
Yunting was taken off the wall by Jun Yuanyou and landed under the acacia tree.
The tree is so thick that an adult can just hug it with one arm. It can be seen that it has been planted for many years. The leaves are now withered and yellow, and it looks a bit depressed.
"Husband, you are responsible for the top, and I am responsible for the bottom." Yunting suggested.
"Okay!" Jun Yuanyou immediately flew up the tree to check, while Yunting searched around the bottom of the tree and took out tools from the space to dig carefully.
Time passed little by little, and it was almost dawn. Yunting and Jun Yuanyou did not find anything suspicious. They also poured water from the water tank in the yard to the acacia tree, but found nothing unusual.
"Husband, do you think we are overthinking it, or is this tree just a memory of Bai Jing, or is there something that happened under this tree that left a deep impression on him?" Yunting frowned.
"Maybe so. Let's go back first when it gets daylight." Jun Yuanyou said.
"Okay, I'm really tired after working hard all night." Yunting yawned.
Jun Yuanyou immediately flew up to the wall with Yunting, leaving a few secret guards staring at the acacia tree in Baijing's yard. Then he jumped up and took Yunting straight to a courtyard in the city.
Early the next morning, the servants in Bai Jing's Mansion discovered that there were traces of digging under the albizia tree in the yard.
"What kind of bastard who doesn't sleep, stayed up in the middle of the night and came to the yard to dig up a tree." The housekeeper muttered, and immediately asked someone to clear the soil under the tree.
In the Imperial Palace of Tianjiu Kingdom.
When Gu Jiuyuan heard that his secret guard came to report that Jun Yuanyou had taken Yunting to Bai Jing's house to check the acacia tree, he knew that his guess was right. He was reading a book.
Yunting has always put her family first. Bai Jing's last words were to tell Xuan'er to water the albizia tree, so they were so worried. So early the next morning, Gu Jiuyuan took Ren Xuan'er there in person. In Bai Jing's mansion.
When the steward and servants saw His Majesty and the Regent, they were frightened to death and immediately bowed respectfully.
"Everyone, get up. I just came to take a look at this acacia tree." Ren Xuan'er went straight to the big tree, but was a little surprised when she saw the soil that had been turned over under the tree.
"Uncle Nine Emperors, is this true?"
No wonder Yunting and Jun Yuanyou didn't live in the palace yesterday and had to come out. At this moment, Ren Xuan'er understood why Uncle Nine Emperors brought her here so early in the morning.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what's going on. When I woke up early this morning, I saw the soil turned into this." The steward immediately replied.
Gu Jiuyuan glanced at it and nodded gently to Ren Xuan'er: "As you think, that's it. You all can go down."
"Yes." The butler and servants immediately left.
Ren Xuan'er didn't hesitate. She looked at the leaves of the huge Albizia Julibrissin tree withered and yellow, and many leaves were fluttering in the wind, as if she was saying her final farewell.
Ren Xuan'er stretched out her hand to catch a piece of yellow leaf: "It was under this tree that I met Bai Jing. At that time, he was bullied by other children. I saved him, beat those children away, and told him You must become stronger yourself, otherwise you will just be left to your own devices.
Later, he gained your respect for his ability and ability, so I gave him this courtyard so that he would not forget the bullying he suffered back then.
By the way, the two of us also buried a jar of wine together, saying that in the future he would become a distinguished official and rise to great heights, and I would also learn Master's lifelong medical skills, and we would dig it out together to celebrate."
Ren Xuan'er said, and immediately walked to a place five meters to the left of the big tree: "Uncle Nine Emperors, that's right here."
"Come here, dig it out!" Gu Jiuyuan ordered.
The men who followed immediately started to work. After a while, they dug out a wine jar and brought it up: "Your Majesty, what should I do with this jar of wine?"
Ren Xuan'er had mixed feelings in her heart: "Just let it be buried."
"Now that we have fulfilled our wish, let's go back." Gu Jiuyuan said with concern.
"Okay!" Ren Xuan'er turned around and left. Gu Jiuyuan immediately gave instructions to his confidants before leaving.
The confidant waited until Ren Xuan'er and Gu Jiuyuan left, took the wine jar out of the soil, and carried it to Jun Yuanyou and Yunting.
