Chapter 378 Peeling Layers of Skin ([-])

"Brother Qing, what's wrong with you?"

The old Fourteen arrived very quickly, but as soon as he turned out from the screen between the main room and the Nuan Pavilion, his footsteps stopped abruptly, not for any other reason, but because the image of Hong Qing lying on the couch was really beautiful. Somewhat choking, his face was pale and pale, his body was still shivering non-stop, his slightly open eyes were also very dull, and with a hot towel covering his forehead, it was obvious that he was really sick. However, the old fourteen couldn't help being a little bit suspicious-you must know that the old fourteen believed that Hong Qing was pretending to be sick before entering the door, but now that the situation happened, the old fourteen's confidence could not help but be shaken Come to think of it, if Hong Qing really fell ill, wouldn't Eight Master's hope of pushing Hong Qing out to preside over the interrogation be lost?
"Ah, Uncle Fourteen is here. You, please sit down. My nephew is slightly ill, so I won't greet you."

Hearing the sound, Hong Qing tilted his head with difficulty, and stared with blurred eyes for a long time. It seemed that he had just recognized the old fourteenth, so he stretched out his hand feebly, and greeted him in a trembling tone.

"Don't move, just lie down."

Seeing that Hong Qing was struggling to support the bed, and seemed to be struggling to get up, the old fourteen couldn't help feeling a little bit unbearable. One sentence.

"Ah..., my little brother fell ill this time I came back to Beijing, and I'm so weak, I won't get up to greet you, Uncle Fourteen, just sit down."

When the old Fourteen stretched out her hand and pressed it like this, Hong Qing lay down on the ground, nodded her head, and greeted feebly.

"Um……"

The old fourteen's previous press was not entirely polite, but to take this opportunity to check Hong Qing's body temperature. When he found that Hong Qing's body was hot, he didn't seem to be pretending to be ill, and his heart inevitably rolled over for a while. Shi Shi really didn't know what to say. Of course, what he didn't know was that Hong Qing was not sick at all, and the reason why she was seriously ill was that Hong Qing used the "Wuyi Heart Sutra" internal force to It's just a forced symptom.

"Uncle Fourteen, you are..."

Knowing that the old fourteenth came here for the case of the emperor's mausoleum, but Hongqing pretended not to know and asked half of the question.

"It's nothing serious, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I just came to see you."

Now that Hongqing is already ill, the old fourteen can no longer count on Hongqing to go to the front line, so he has no interest in negotiating conditions with Hongqing. It's just that the talent just came, it's really not good, so he just left, helpless Next, it can only be a perfunctory sentence indiscriminately.

"Uncle Fourteen has a heart, alas, my nephew went to the emperor's mausoleum this time, it is really a big crime, there is nothing there except for wind and sand, after a lot of tossing, my little nephew is lying on the bed, it's really unlucky See through."

The old fourteen didn't want to talk about serious matters, but Hongqing didn't intend to let go of such a good opportunity to kill a fat pig, so she sighed pretendingly, and consciously brought the topic to the case of the emperor's tomb.

"Brother Qing has really worked hard this time. Well, I heard that the case at the Emperor's Mausoleum is complicated. It is said that many matters are caused by that old boy Mu Chuna. I don't know if it is true?"

Even though he didn't expect Hong Qing to be successful, the old fourteen still didn't want to let go of this opportunity to find out the truth from Hong Qing's mouth. It's just a shame to say it, but when he heard Hong Qing himself mentioned this matter, the old fourteen was very happy and hurriedly followed up with the question.

"This……"

How could Hong Qing be so easy to get along with, no matter how eager the old fourteen's gaze was, Hong Qing pretended not to see it, smiled wryly, but didn't give an answer in a daze.

"Huh? Brother Qing, do you have something hard to say? Hey, then the master didn't ask."

Although the old fourteen wanted to know the real situation of the Diling case, in the final analysis, he didn't have to know, nothing else, what he wanted was to replace the eighth master, if that was the case, the eighth master would Fanglue being suppressed is a good thing for the old fourteen, as long as it doesn't hurt the fundamentals, it will benefit the old fourteen to benefit from it. Not wanting to ask any more questions, he waved his hand with a smile and said a word with understanding.

Uh huh, this bastard is really good at calculating, well, let's not give you a little color, you really don't know how many eyes Prince Ma has!

Hongqing is such a shrewd person, as soon as the old fourteen showed his attitude, he immediately sensed the dark intentions of the old fourteen, and he couldn't help but sneered in his heart, but there was a strange expression on his face. Looking embarrassed, he frowned slightly and said: "Uncle Fourteen was joking, this matter is hard to explain in one word, the strange thing in it is really..., well, it's hard to say, it's hard to say."

"Oh, there is such a thing? I don't know what the strangeness is. Brother Qing, let's not keep it a secret. We are one. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it."

Originally, the old fourteen only had an attitude of nothing to do with the case of the emperor's mausoleum, but when he heard what Hong Qing said, his interest suddenly became high, and he rushed to ask questions.

"This……"

The old fourteen was very interested, but Hong Qing stopped talking, he hesitated for a long time, but he didn't say anything, which made the old fourteen so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat.

"Brother Qing, you're not real, you and I have nothing to say, well, if you don't talk about it, you're gone."

The old fourteen was so uncomfortable, he was really impatient, so he laughed and cursed, and pretended to leave.

"Oh, Uncle Fourteen, it's my nephew who refuses to talk about it, oh, don't mention it, my nephew's illness is also caused by this matter, alas..."

Hong Qing knows better than anyone what the old fourteen is. This guy is a curious baby. Once he gets interested, let alone leave by himself, he won't leave even if he is beaten. Because of this, Hong Qing Qing even wanted to play tricks, sighing endlessly, but she just didn't say what was wrong with it.

"Huh? Let's not be like this. Why didn't the master hear that the case will be cleared? Could it be that there is something hidden in it?"

Hearing what Hong Qing said became more and more outrageous, the curiosity of the old fourteen immediately became stronger, and the buttocks that had just been raised fell back to the brocade pier so naturally, and Hong Qing was suspiciously aroused for a long time After that, he asked a question tentatively.

"Uncle Fourteen, you don't know now. Alas, my nephew has worked so hard to find out the facts of the case. This is about to bring out the mastermind behind the scenes, but Qi Shiwu, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments He insisted not to let the trial go, saying that the matter is of great importance and must have the order of Huang Mafa. He also said that the case would not be able to reach a conclusion without the joint trial of the three divisions. Alas, since my nephew entered the court in 43, he has never done half-hearted errands, isn't this disgusting?"

Hong Qing smiled wryly and shook her head, and babbled about Qi Shiwu's dismissal. The words were trivial, but she just didn't say what the situation in the case should be. There is no doubt that she was still playing tricks.

"Hmph, Qi Shiwu is just a slave, if he dares to be rude like this, I will never forgive him! It's just this case..."

The old fourteen didn't care whether Hongqing was really wronged or not, but since Hongqing had already complained to this point, no matter what, the old fourteen had to appease Hongqing's emotions first, and then followed He angrily scolded Qi Shiwu for a few words, then changed the subject and returned to the case itself.

"It's hard to say. In this case, my nephew found out that the mastermind of the water-injected underground palace was that bastard Mu Chuna. There are all kinds of evidence, and there is no room for his sophistry. It's just why he acted like this, so it's not my nephew. It can be imagined, maybe after more trials, the master messenger behind it may be found out, but if the person is changed, it will be hard to say, alas, the illness of the baby nephew came at an untimely time, I am afraid that I have more intentions And it’s not strong enough.”

Hong Qing didn't hide too much, she briefly introduced the case, and pointed out that the case might fall into the hands of the prince.

"Well, that's true. If it's really caused by villains, it must be easy to play."

Although the old fourteen was well informed, he only knew the facts of the case in general, but he was not very clear about the details. Hearing Hong Qing's words at this time, he thought about it in his heart. Conflicting endlessly, on the one hand, I hope that Lord Jiu and Master Shi will suffer some setbacks so that he can come forward to rectify the situation, but on the other hand, I am afraid that the prince will take the opportunity to make things bigger. If it doesn't happen, he can't take the opportunity to stabilize the court situation. In this way, the hope of the old fourteen to become the master of the East Palace will inevitably be slim. This kind of consequence is not the situation that the old fourteen likes to see.

"Who says it's not? Alas, since my nephew returned to Beijing, my heart has been in pain all the time. It hurts deeply. Alas, if a shameless villain succeeds, Jiangshan Sheji may be in danger!"

As soon as the struggling expression appeared on the old fourteen's face, Hong Qing immediately guessed the psychological change, and while secretly laughing, he didn't forget to add fuel to the flames.

"Brother Qing is right, this matter should not be taken lightly, it should be thoroughly investigated to the end!"

After all, the old fourteenth is not an ordinary person. Although he struggled in his heart, he could still settle his accounts in the end. In his opinion, the prince must fall, otherwise, all calculations will be in vain. It is possible to discuss whether to win the dominance. No matter what, the eighth master has long lost his emperor's heart. It is impossible for him to have the slightest chance to enter the East Palace. It's not the crown prince's material. In their small group, the one who really has a chance to take the top position belongs to his old fourteen. It doesn't matter whether the eighth master is sincerely recommending it or has ulterior motives. It's not too difficult to deal with all the brothers, once thinking about it, Master Fourteen made up his mind.
