Chapter 971

The businessman nodded his head and told the story in detail.

"Back to my Lord, I was originally a cloth merchant in the west of the Chu Dynasty. Half a month ago, I bought a batch of cloth and planned to sell it in the West. I went to my brother-in-law's pawnshop to say goodbye before I left. I saw a woman taking this dagger to pawnbroker. At that time, I saw that the dagger was so beautiful that I offered to buy it for a hundred Liang silver."

Zhou an asked, "how old is the woman and what does she look like?"

The merchant said, "the woman is in her forties and at most in her early fifties. She looks ordinary and nothing special."

"But the local people in the western Xinjiang?"

"Listen to the audio and video, wear simple clothes, and your family should not be rich."

Zhou an frowns, so the clue is broken again? How did the dagger leave the palace and go to the west?

Zhou an was really upset. He waved and said, "it's OK. Let's go."

General Li asked Zhou an, "Your Majesty, this man?"

"Let him go. It has nothing to do with him."

General Li then led the man out of the Royal study.

At this time, the palace maid came to report: "Your Majesty, the snow princess asked her maid to invite your majesty. Today is the birthday of Prince Jiao, who has been shouting to see your majesty."

Zhou an has a headache. There are so many tricks for women in the harem. They are not using children as an excuse, but pretending to be sick. They are all perfect.

I didn't plan to go, but I think Xueer is the closest person to Rongyue after all. Maybe Xueer will know why this hand goes out of the palace.

"Set up the king and the palace."

Xueer, who had not reported her hope, was very happy to see the king coming. His majesty seldom came to Jinghe palace, or even to the harem, even though she is not only a concubine now.

"See your majesty!"

Zhou an strode to see her, but he didn't look at her. He waved and said, "get up."

After entering the inner hall, Zhou an sat down in the Lord's seat and saw Zhou Jiao, who was staring at him with wide eyes. The child looked very much like him, clearly a father and son, but he was strange to the father. No matter how Xueer coaxed him to call him father and king, he would not.

Zhou an didn't care. He didn't need to talk with others. He took out his dagger and asked Zhao Xueer, "are you familiar with this?"

Snow son a Leng, take off a mouth convenient way: "this is not elder sister's intimate dagger?" This is also the token of love between my sister and Zheng Zhongwen.

Zhou an said: "I remember that the dagger was always in her hand when the dissolving moon was still there. But why did the dagger disappear after the dissolving moon left?"

Xueer doesn't know what he said. Does he doubt that she took the dagger?

"Your Majesty, I haven't been around for a long time before my sister was ill. I don't know when the dagger disappeared."

"You really don't know?" Zhou an asked.

Xueer shook her head: "I really don't know." She raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhou an. The former gentle childe had changed and became so indifferent.

Zhou an also looks back at her, trying to find a trace, even a trace of dissolving moon.

Unfortunately not. Xueer and Rongyue are totally different.

He got up, put away the dagger, and said, "since I don't know, I don't know. I have something else to do."

He strode away, ignoring the tears in Xueer's eyes.

Since ancient times, emperors are the most affectionate!

Since ancient times, the emperor is the most merciless!

He went back to the Imperial Palace, put the dagger and other relics of Rongyue together, and started the daily routine of daze. He recalled all the things before, the surprises and surprises when he saw her for the first time. After knowing her, he fell in love with her sweetness, and learned her loss and helplessness when he was interested.
