......

Longyuan City, Murong Mansion.

The fifth prince showed a casual smile, raised his hand to signal the entourage behind him to rest in peace, looked at Murong Feiqing, who was graceful and jade, and said, "I have heard for a long time that Murong Girl is peerless, and the country is beautiful. How can I clear the turbidity and abnormal current, and I have never had a chance to see it. I happened to meet today and was able to see the beauty, which is really a blessing for three lives. ”

Murong Feiqing turned to look at it, her chin was silent, although she didn't know this fifth prince, but when she heard that he came to find out the reason for Murong Lie's death, out of courtesy, of course, she had to say hello.

"I don't know where the five princes are coming, where are they going to start?"

Jiang Fei smiled indifferently, this fifth prince, sure enough, the drunkard didn't mean to drink, he came to investigate Murong Lie's incident, but he actually coveted Murong Feiqing's appearance.

With him here, he will naturally not let him succeed.

"Oh?"

The fifth prince looked at Jiang Fei with interest, and said casually: "As far as I know, there is no concubine in the Murong family, I don't know who this is?"

"Although I am unknown, I am a childhood sweetheart with Feiqing, so I am here. ”

Jiang Fei said indifferently, since this fifth prince has bad intentions towards Murong Feiqing, it is better to declare it as soon as possible, so as not to make any more delusions.

"It's okay, we can get down to business first. ”

The fifth prince laughed at it, as the prince of the dynasty, he had some unique cultivation, knowing that Jiang Fei was demonstrating, he didn't care, but just quietly changed the topic, so as not to be-for-tat and lose his senses.

Jiang Fei nodded indifferently, of course he didn't think that the fifth prince would stop there, he just knew that he hadn't reached the point of expressing his attitude yet, and when the time was ripe, he would definitely make other plans, and it seemed that he had quite a city.

"The five princes are coming, and the villain is not welcome, so I hope you don't blame it. ”

Steward Xie originally thought that it would be appropriate for Murong Feiqing to greet him personally, but after thinking about it, the eldest lady was a cultivator, so she didn't have to be rigid about etiquette, so she reacted after a while.

"No need to be polite, I came here this time to investigate the murder of General Murong, you wait and talk to me in detail, so that it can be solved as soon as possible. ”

The fifth prince restrained a little loose, a little positive, although he is usually eclectic, but he is still more serious in doing things, otherwise the Emperor Tongsheng will probably not give him orders.

"This ......"

Steward Xie was uncertain, and only after seeing Murong Feiqing nodding softly did he tell the ins and outs of the matter.

Of course, he omitted the matter of Murong Lie ordering them to mourn on their own, and if he can achieve the status of the steward of the General's Mansion, he will always have some ability to steer the rudder.

Jiang Fei smiled lightly, if these five princes didn't know that Murong Lie had already made arrangements, they would definitely think that this was a sudden accident, and the current situation was unproven, he was afraid that he would have to collect clues bit by bit in order to find out the truth.

However, no matter what Murong Lie's life or death is, as long as he can find out the culprit behind the scenes, he can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.

The fifth prince's eyes flickered, and after pondering for a moment, he said to himself: "General Murong has already returned to the field after disarming his armor, and he has never openly opposed anyone in the dynasty, and now he is suddenly killed, there must be a traitor who is secretly doing the obstruction." ”

Unexpectedly, the fifth prince did not do things as Jiang Fei expected, but deeply observed the hidden situation that was not easy to discover.

It seems that he does have some means.

Jiang Feiqing's eyes flickered, and it was rumored that the five princes were free and scattered, spending all day drinking, touring the mountains and rivers in the north and south, living in no fixed place, and moody.

Now it seems that this is not the case, the disguise in the world is nothing more than two possibilities, one is to deceive, and the other is to protect oneself.

Judging from his prominent status as a prince, of course, there is no need to deceive the world in such a self-depraved way, so he pretended to be cynical in order to protect himself?

"How so?"

Jiang Fei would never come to a conclusion easily, and he wanted to see if the fifth prince was hiding it.

"Hah, I'm just talking about it. ”

The fifth prince regained his casual appearance, brushed up his sleeves and walked leisurely, and walked straight towards the cold ice jade coffin, a gaze suddenly shot out behind him, extremely cold, as if in the heavy snow, when the sky was cold and the ground was freezing, he was heating in the room, and suddenly the door opened a crack, and the north wind hit the bones.

Jiang Fei's heart was shocked, he felt a little surprised, and looked at the cold, among the entourage of the five princes, there was a man wearing a gray cloak, his face was pale, like a piece of tofu, but his eyes were extremely sharp, like a sharp knife inserted in the tofu.

The cold chill did not stop, it was fleeting, Jiang Fei frowned slightly, and it was an illusion.

"How can a coffin without one collect the dead? Could it be that it is just filled with some unfortunate news?"

The fifth prince put his hands behind his back, leaning over to stare at the cold jade coffin, with a meaningful smile on his lips, obviously, the clothes inside surprised him a little.

In addition to the accident, it is even more strange.

He stood up straight, inspected the old and young of the Murong family around him, and said leisurely: "You want to see people in life, and you want to see corpses in death, who is presiding over this unclear funeral?"

The snow-white clothes were clustered, and the old and young of the Murong family were speechless, looking at each other.

Steward Xie trembled, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, the reason he just stated was too brief, and he didn't even say whether Murong Lie was already lying in the coffin, if these five princes were investigated, he would definitely not end well.

"It's me. ”

Murong Feiqing spoke out at the right time to save the speechless scene, she looked sideways at the cold jade coffin, and the haggard and crumbling after the sadness on her face were crumbling.

"It turned out to be Miss Murong, I said that the funeral arrangement was comprehensive, and the touching filial piety can be seen everywhere, all of which are true feelings, all of them are sincere, it is really moving, and I can't bear to say more. “

The fifth prince talked nonsense in a serious manner, and then paused, and said: "However, everything must be based on the roots, not perfunctory, since I have taken over this matter, I will definitely not let this empty coffin go into the ground, and I hope that Miss Murong will forgive me." ”

"There are five princes who are bothered, and we are also worried about this matter, and we don't know what to do. ”

Murong Feiqing whispered gloomily, and her long eyelashes were stained with a trace of rain and dew, trembling slightly.

The fifth prince's brows were instantly suppressed, his eyes showed a sharp edge, and he said, "It seems that it is not Miss Murong's wish to hold a funeral at all, it must be someone else." ”

The surroundings suddenly became very quiet, not as deserted as Fang Cai.

It was deserted because all the members of the Murong family who were kneeling around were silent, like a plate of cooled ashes, lifeless, and the falling needles could be heard, but no one wanted to listen.

Now, it suddenly became quiet, because they had all raised their heads, and there was a faint light in their eyes, which seemed to be scorching and refining, and they were willing to listen to the faint sound of breathing.

Why is this happening, they seem to be expecting something.

Jiang Feiqing's eyes flickered, and they noticed this subtle change, they should know the order that Murong Lie left before he went out, why he was full of anticipation now.

Expecting someone to tell the truth, or expecting not to be buried?

Steward Xie was suddenly nervous, his eyes were dodgy, the corners of his eyes were jumping up and down, and the beard on the side of his mouth was trembling.

The quiet atmosphere began to be disordered, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Steward Xie.

The order to mourn spontaneously came from his mouth, and although it was a little strange, it was not enough to doubt it.

Could it be that he deliberately concealed something, or was he fabricating it?

The fifth prince showed a loose smile, stared at the trembling Steward Xie, and said slowly: "It turned out to be you, why didn't you dare to admit it?"

"That's right, it's him, he threatened us with a funeral, and killed Lan'er!"

A terrible shout sounded, and among the people of the Murong family who were kneeling, a young man with a sad expression suddenly stood up, and he pointed at Steward Xie with one hand, his eyes were annoyed and deep.

Jiang Fei's brows tightened, feeling that his gaze was a little familiar, and suddenly remembered that after Steward Xie said that he was mourning for Murong Lie, this gaze had flickered.

No wonder I didn't see Lan'er, it turned out that she had been murdered!

Murong Feiqing was startled, she never thought that the well-behaved and meticulous Lan'er had left her forever!

And this culprit turned out to be Steward Xie in Murong Mansion!

"Not only did you hold a funeral on your own initiative, but you also dared to act recklessly and hurt people's lives, which is an unforgivable crime and lawlessness!"

The eyes of the fifth prince were full of majesty at this time, he waved his hand, and the entourage to stand moved when they heard the order, and approached Steward Xie step by step.

A cold chill suddenly rose among the people of the Murong family who were kneeling, and they turned their hands and took off their mourning clothes and quickly stood up.

At the same time, a cold light suddenly lit up, shooting directly at the grieving young man.

Zheng!

The shadow of the sword lit up, passing like the wind.

Jiang Fei's black hair was high, and he swung his sword to block the flying knife under the young man's neck, and the flying knife that had lost power fell and stuck obliquely on the ground.

It was only an inch away from the young man's feet.

Although this inch is short, it is the distance between life and death.

Steward Xie's generous face suddenly became hideous, and he said fiercely: "That's right! Murong Lie's funeral was organized by me, and I have worked hard for the Murong family for many years, for what? Isn't it just to be able to get ahead one day! He is refreshing! The general who puts his majesty is inappropriate, he has to dismiss the Murong family, and be an idle person!"

His mournful voice was mixed with strong unwillingness, like a widow who had lived alone for many years, and finally met a man, but before it could be fruitful, she suddenly left her.
