Surprise! I emptied the emperor's private treasury before exile

Chapter 295 The Secret of Wenyuan Pavilion

"I will go and get the book for you right away. You may want to look around or sit at the desk and wait. It is all up to you." After the old eunuch said this, he bowed slightly, turned around and hurried away.

Chu Ci: "Quite arrogant."

After secretly complaining in his heart, Chu Ci began to walk slowly in Wenyuan Pavilion.

At the same time, she whispered to "Xing'er" who was hidden in the space: "Xing'er, scan all the books here and make copies."

Then, Chu Ci keenly noticed that the "star" in the space began to move.

Only at this point did Chu Ci feel at ease and had the energy to slowly check the specific situation in Wenyuan Pavilion.

However, this peace did not last long, as the old eunuch came hurriedly with a few books in his hands. "Look, are these what you need?"

Then, without waiting for Chu Ci to respond, he introduced himself: "This one is the essay of Lu Yu, the medical immortal of the previous dynasty. This one is the Secret Book of Divine Doctors, which is said to have been written by a divine doctor a hundred years ago. It records the solutions to many difficult and complicated diseases. And this one is the Wonderful Records of Herbs, which records in detail the characteristics and uses of various rare herbs..."

Chu Ci: For some reason, she always felt that when the old eunuch handed her the book, his expression suddenly became a little unnatural, his body seemed to tense up, and he became inexplicably nervous.

Chu Ci didn't understand the reason, but he was sure that it had something to do with the medical book in his hand, so he decided to investigate it himself. "Thank you, eunuch, but I'm used to being quiet when I read, so I hope you can give me some convenience."

The old man looked like he wanted to leave, but didn't dare to. His eyes kept wandering on Chu Ci's hand.

When Chu Ci saw this, he became even more certain that there must be something unusual in the medical book in his hand.

So, her attitude became even tougher, and she looked directly at the old eunuch and said, "Eunuch, what are you thinking of doing by wanting to leave but staying? If you affect the condition of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, can you bear the responsibility?"

As Chu Ci spoke, he stared at the old eunuch intently, and sure enough, a flash of anger flashed across his eyes.

But he quickly regained the submissive look that a eunuch should have: "Yes, I'm sorry. I'm just worried about these books. I'll take my leave now."

But the more this happened, the more Chu Ci's doubts deepened. When they first met, this old eunuch had no fear of him at all, but now he was so submissive?

The huge contrast between the before and after made Chu Ci feel that something was wrong.

However, Chu Ci was not in a hurry to investigate. After all, the relationships in the palace were complicated. If one wanted to investigate someone, the emperor and empress would have to act quickly and effectively.

I wonder how big the secrets in the old eunuch's hands are. Can he directly bring down the original male protagonist, the King of Qi?

Chu Ci was lost in thought, with all kinds of speculations constantly emerging in his mind, while he was immersed in reading the book in his hand.

As he watched, Chu Ci suddenly realized something was wrong.

It is said that the books in Wenyuan Pavilion have not been read for many years, but the one in her hand actually has a faint smell of fresh ink?

Could it be that this seemingly peaceful Wenyuan Pavilion is hiding someone else besides the old eunuch we just met?

Others? As soon as this thought came to Chu Ci, for some reason, he immediately thought of the eldest princess.

Chu Ci thought she might be suffering from hysteria, but for some reason, this thought took root in her mind and could not be driven away.

So Chu Ci pretended to stay in Wenyuan Pavilion for a while. After "Xing'er" finished scanning all the books in Wenyuan Pavilion, he hurriedly left and left the palace.

I had been planning to have a good talk with Fan Jingrui, but I didn't expect that Fan Jingrui received an imperial edict today and went to report to Jingzhao Yin.

It was not until dinner time that Fan Jingrui hurried back.

Chu Ci hurried forward and said, "Husband, I have something to tell you."

Unexpectedly, Fan Jingrui was slightly stunned, and then said: "That's right, my lady, I have something to tell you too."

Chu Ci was also a little stunned. Fan Jingrui never brought work home before, so what happened now?

Chu Ci thought about it for a while, frowned slightly, and asked doubtfully: "Could it be related to me?"

Fan Jingrui shook his head lightly, his expression solemn: "Although it is not right, it is not far off. This matter is related to the person you locked up in the manor."

Sure enough, Chu Ci's interest was successfully aroused. Her eyes brightened instantly and she looked at Fan Jingrui with a sharp gaze.

Seeing this, Fan Jingrui didn't waste any words and slowly told the news he had obtained from reading the old files: "Fourteen years ago, the Qin family, that is, Duanpin's family, reported a case of a runaway slave. The description of the runaway slave was extremely detailed. Coincidentally, all the characteristics matched those of the person in Zhuangzi."

"But at the same time, there was a rumor in the capital fourteen years ago that Concubine Duan was not the real daughter of the Qin family. However, with Concubine Duan's entry into the palace, this rumor gradually dissipated."

"Originally, I didn't take it seriously. After all, it was just some groundless rumors. But today, Feng Yan took the initiative to find me and told me in a serious manner that the rumor was true."

The profound meaning contained in these short words is quite surprising.

"No way, no way. Could it be that this plan of occupying the magpie's nest was planned thirty years ago?" Chu Ci's face was full of disbelief, his mouth slightly open, and his eyes wide open.

Thinking of this, Chu Ci calmed down and calmed down her slightly excited mood. She also carefully told him what she found in Wenyuan Pavilion. Finally, she blinked her eyes and said in a low voice with a bit of mystery: "Husband, guess what secrets are hidden in Wenyuan Pavilion?"

As Fan Jingrui listened to Chu Ci's story, he had a vague premonition that the discovery made by the couple this time might completely overturn the existing structure of the entire court.

After thinking for a while, Fan Jingrui said firmly: "Madam, shall we go to Feng Yan's house?"

Chu Ci heard this and stared at Fan Jingrui with suspicion: "Husband, do you think Feng Yan knows the truth? This is impossible, right?"

Before he was exiled, Fan Jingrui must have held the belief that a man should not talk about strange things. But the more he experienced, the more thoroughly this deep-rooted idea was broken.

So Fan Jingrui said, "It's impossible for him to know the truth, but he might be able to figure something out. Otherwise, with Feng Yan's personality, he would never make that special trip."

Chu Ci was really fed up with those people behind the King of Qi. They were always hiding behind the scenes and doing small things, and there was never a moment of peace.

So, she responded without hesitation: "Okay, when are we going there?"

"Maybe Feng Yan is waiting for us now." After spending a long time with Chu Ci, Fan Jingrui unknowingly became infected with Chu Ci's impatience.
