Chapter 452 About the unknown things about Feng Wuyou, ask the man in black(1/2)
Chapter 452 Regarding the unknown things about Feng Wuyou, ask the man in black to find out.
Xiao Jinyan's eyes paused. After so long, there was finally news. He thought it would be the same as before, and he couldn't find any news.
"Let him in quickly."
After Qin Xiao exited, Shu Ying came in from outside, knelt on one knee and saluted, "Master."
Xiao Jinyan said: "Get up and answer the question."
"Thank you, Master." Shu Ying stood up straight and reported everything he found out.
"My subordinates have gone to check for a long time. Almost no one in Nanzhao has heard of Feng Wuyou. It was not until I passed through a remote village that I heard an old man mention Feng Wuyou."
Xiao Jinyan asked: "Does he know who Feng Wuyou is?"
"I heard from the old man that a plague broke out in Nanzhao Kingdom a few years ago. Since then, Feng Wuyou has disappeared. As for who it is, the old man has been avoiding talking about it." Shu Ying replied respectfully.
After hearing this, Xiao Jinyan became even more curious about Feng Wuyou. What kind of person would disappear out of thin air and be avoided by Nan Zhaoguo?
Who is that man in black?
"An outbreak of plague? Why have I never heard of an outbreak of plague in Nanzhao Kingdom? Plague is not a trivial matter. It is impossible for Nanzhao Kingdom to hide it from neighboring countries."
"My subordinates also find it strange. After many investigations, we learned that this plague came and went quickly. It lasted only one day. There was no loss in Nanzhao Kingdom, so it didn't spread." Shu Ying said.
Xiao Jinyan snorted coldly: "That's even more strange. If the plague recedes in one day, is it still called a plague? What's the difference between it and a rain?"
Shu Ying lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes because he was also curious, but after asking for a long time, he always got the same answer.
Xiao Jinyan pondered for a long time, thinking of the paintings, jade, and the words of the man in black, which made him want to know the truth.
A few years ago, he sent someone to check and found that there was no one named Feng among the royal family of Nanzhao Kingdom.
Shu Ying guessed: "Master, is it possible that there is no such person as Feng Wuyou?"
"If Wu Feng Wuyou was a person, how could I have a portrait of her?" Xiao Jinyan thought of the person in the painting who was somewhat similar to Xiao Jiu, maybe it was a coincidence.
Shu Ying lowered his head. How did he know? He went to check a few years ago and found no clues. This time he was luckier and found some clues, but they didn't seem to be of much use.
In the half year since Su Ying went to Nanzhao, he lost a lot of weight, which also shows that he suffered a lot during this trip.
Xiao Jinyan waved his hand and said, "Go down and have a rest."
"Thank you, Master." Shu Ying exited the study.
Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and looked at the memorial in his hand. In fact, he had no expectations for this investigation, but he was still a little disappointed when he got the answer. The lost memory seemed to have no impact on him, but the words of the man in black reminded him all the time.
For him, the lost memory is very important.
"Liu Xi."
Liu Xi, who was guarding the door, bowed and walked in, "What are your orders, Your Highness?"
Xiao Jinyan said: "Go and call Concubine Xu over."
"Here." Liu Xi took the order and left, then turned around and went to Yixiang Hall.
Concubine Xu was staring at the little bell in her hand in boredom, because it had not sounded for four months, which meant that she had not seen Jun Wuxian for four months.
I promised to say something before leaving, but ended up leaving without leaving any trace behind.
Concubine Xu originally planned to leave the palace at the end of the year, but because she couldn't bear to leave Shen Chuwei and Tao Liangyuan, she planned to leave the palace again in the spring of this year.
You can go back home at any time, but it will be difficult to see each other again once you leave the palace.
When Liu Xi bowed in and told Concubine Xu that His Highness was summoned for something, in the past, Concubine Xu would have been happy to dress up and go to see His Highness.
Now?
She said a faint "hmm" and followed Liu Xi to the study while waving a small handkerchief.
After entering, Concubine Xu came forward to bless her body and said, "Your Highness, may you be blessed and safe."
Xiao Jinyan raised his head and looked at Concubine Xu and found that she had lost weight.
Concubine Xu has lost more than ten kilograms in the past four months. The weight loss was so obvious that Xiao Jinyan couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to.
"Get up and talk. I have something to discuss with you."
Compared with the arrogance and domineering behavior of Concubine Xu in the previous three years, she is now a bit gentler.
"Your Highness has summoned my concubine to discuss something with you?"
Xiao Jinyan didn't want to waste time. When it came to Concubine Xu, it was best to get straight to the point.
"I want to see the man in black, do you have any idea?"
Mentioning the man in black, Concubine Xu felt a little worried. She shook her head and said, "Your Highness, there is nothing I can do about it."
Xiao Jinyan paused, seemingly a little surprised by Concubine Xu's answer.
"Then how do you usually meet the man in black? I don't believe you have never met in private."
"I've seen it before, but every time it's the man in black who takes the initiative to find me. I don't know how to find the man in black." Concubine Xu sighed in her heart after saying this. If she had known about it, she would have contacted her long ago.
He doesn’t have to wait more than four months.
It was only then that Xiao Jinyan realized that Concubine Xu and the man in black had not seen each other for four months. Concubine Xu had no way to contact the man in black. If she wanted to find him, it would be more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
"If the man in black comes to see you again, tell him that I want to see him."
When Concubine Xu heard this, she thought Xiao Jinyan was going to cause trouble for the man in black. If this was true, it would be even more difficult for them to meet him next time.
"Why does Your Highness want to see him? He didn't do anything bad. Although it was wrong to sneak into the palace secretly, he was also very helpful. When the Crown Princess was imprisoned in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, I asked him to give her a gift
Food.”
Xiao Jinyan: "..." You don't even know who he is, so you start to protect your shortcomings?
"Breaking into the palace at night is already a capital offense."
Concubine Xu naturally knew that she was guilty of breaking into the palace at night, so she tried her best to speak good words for the man in black, "But if he broke into the palace at night, my concubine would die of the plague, and the princess would not be able to eat delicious food. Your Highness can
You cannot issue a fatwa or arrest warrant or anything like that."
"..." Xiao Jinyan: "I saw him because he had something to do, not to ask for guilt."
Concubine Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want Jun Wuxian to become a wanted criminal.
"I understand."
Xiao Jinyan waved his sleeves, and Concubine Xu exited.
Without being able to see the man in black, Xiao Jinyan has no chance to ask, because now only the man in black knows who Feng Wuyou is and what is his relationship with him?
After handling the matters at hand, Xiao Jinyan went to Hehuan Hall.
It was the time to light the lanterns when suddenly it started to snow in the sky.
Shen Chuwei took her son and daughter to the porch to watch the snow.
The two little guys were more excited than she was when they saw the falling snowflakes.
Shen Chuwei reached out and took Xuehua and happily handed it to the babies, "Baby, this is Xuehua."
Susu looked down at Shen Chuwei's palm, her little fingers had turned into watery snowflakes, and said in a milky voice: "It's Huahua, Ma Ma, Huahua."
Shen Chuwei thinks that the one-year-old's talking is fun and cute, especially her pink and tender face and her serious tone when she speaks, which makes her look cute.
"The snowflakes have melted."
This was what Xiao Jinyan saw when he stepped into the Hehuan Hall. The warm scene made him ignore the howling cold wind, and the indifference in his eyes was replaced by tenderness.
Susu saw Xiao Jinyan first, she spread her arms and flew towards Xiao Jinyan happily.
On snowy days, the road is slippery.
Shen Chuwei was startled when he saw his precious daughter flying forward, and quickly chased after her.
Xiao Jinyan was also shocked, ran over as fast as he could and took his daughter into his arms.
"Daddy." Susu happily hugged Xiao Jinyan's neck and kissed that handsome face, "Well."
Xiao Jinyan looked at his daughter's eyes, which were as smiling as Xiaojiu's, and corrected him: "Call me father."
Susu imitated and said: "Father-King."
Although the pronunciation is not clear enough, you can still tell that it is the father.
Xiao Jinyan praised: "You have learned well."
Shen Chuwei held her son in hand and looked at the father and daughter in front of her. Even she herself did not expect that she would get married and have children at the age of eighteen, something she had never thought about before.
Xiao Jinyan walked over with Susu in her arms, freed up one hand to hold Shen Chuwei's hand, and found that her hand was colder than his own.
"It's cold outside, don't stand outside to blow the cold wind."
"I understand." Shen Chuwei followed Xiao Jinyan and walked in.
Chunxi brought the meals to the table one by one. There was also a stove in which the dishes were boiling and they all smelled delicious.
The two little guys sat on the dining chairs respectively and began to eat their own portions of the meal.
Xiao Jinyan picked up the bowl and remembered that the Queen's mother's birthday was just a few days ago. "The Queen's birthday is coming soon. What birthday do you think is better to send to the Queen?"
