The hard work paid off, Su Wanxi sent someone to carefully check and found that there was indeed a palace maid in Minghui Palace who had left the palace after the incident of the virtuous concubine, she had personally seen the information of this palace maid, and she should have left the palace when she was old last year, but last year she applied to stay, but this year she regretted it and went out of the palace with the rest of the palace maids.

Su Wanxi thought about it, when Concubine Xian was there, this palace maid might think that she would have Concubine Xian as her backer, and she might not have any worries outside the palace, thinking that she could still eat well while staying in the palace. And now that the trees are falling and scattered, she may think that there is a better life outside the palace. Then, Su Wanxi thought that although this was possible, it was more likely that this palace maid always knew something and deliberately left, so she had to find this person first.

After Shen Jingyuan found out, he immediately sent a secret guard out of the palace to look for this person, but he still found nothing, as if this person had evaporated from the world.

"Is this really going to be over?" In the vertical arch hall, Wanxi stood in front of Shen Jingyuan with an unwilling face.

Shen Jingyuan frowned slightly, and said: "This matter is indeed too strange, who will it be......?"

"I want to go out of the palace in person. Wanxi said, secretly calculating in her heart.

"Why?"

"There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the disappearing palace maid must be the key, I want to find it myself. ”

Shen Jingyuan raised his lips and smiled, and said slowly: "I'm afraid there are no bones left." ”

Su Wanxi also smiled: "You think too absolutely." What do you mean by this that this palace maid is in the same group as the murderer, and then the murderer crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, killing people and killing people, right?"

"What if not?" Shen Jingyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Wanxi, hoping that she would have any other opinions.

"Concubine Xian was killed, it is very likely that it was accidental, not that someone deliberately wanted to kill her, but because she happened to bump into some ulterior secret, if it was accidental, the possibility of the murderer and his accomplices is very small, and the palace maid has been in Minghui Palace for several years, and it doesn't look like she was inserted by someone else. However, if this palace maid and Concubine Xian knew the secret that should not be known, and Concubine Xian was killed, then what about that palace maid?" Wanxi reasoned for a reason, and then looked at Shen Jingyuan with slight doubts.

Shen Jingyuan nodded, and suddenly understood: "What do you mean is that she is trying to protect herself, and now she can't find anyone, not because she was killed by the murderer, but because she deliberately avoided it, in order to save her life?"

"The prince is smart, I don't think it's impossible. Su Wanxi smiled lightly.

Shen Jingyuan looked at Wanxi approvingly and said, "The concubine is really thoughtful, I'll send someone down." ”

Su Wanxi really couldn't think of a more perfect inference, and now she couldn't find any clues, and she could only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor. On the one hand, Shen Jingyuan sent people down to find the palace maid who left the palace, and on the other hand, Su Wanxi was still looking for clues in Minghui Palace.

Five days later, Shen Jingyuan sent someone to invite Su Wanxi to the Vertical Arch Palace.

"But there's news?" Su Wanxi looked at Shen Jingyuan expectantly.

Shen Jingyuan shook his head and said, "Nothing." ”

Su Wanxi twisted her eyebrows: "Why did you get nothing?"

The person who came back said that according to the address, there was no palace maid named Liu Yue at all. ”

Su Wanxi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled lightly: "Then it's her! If you can find her, you will definitely be able to gain something!"

"Why?" Shen Jingyuan was puzzled.

"There are palace people in Minghui Palace who have seen that this palace maid was in a trance on the day of Concubine Xian's death, and she bumped into a little palace maid in the middle of the night, and shouted 'Don't kill me'......"

Shen Jingyuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "She saw it all?"

Su Wanxi hooked her lips and smiled: "Presumably so." ”

Shen Jingyuan took a light breath and said, "I will send someone down to look for it again, I want to see people alive or dead to see corpses." ”

She smiled faintly and said, "Prince, why don't you go out of the palace in person?" Recently, the country and the people are safe, I think you should also give yourself a vacation." Moreover...... Didn't the people who were sent out last time find them either? Why don't you see for yourself? ”

"This kind of thing is to send people down. Shen Jingyuan said lightly.

Su Wanxi was unrelenting: "The people in the palace, how can they be trusted if they are not cronies, and besides, this matter has finally made progress, I will never give up this glimmer of hope." If the prince doesn't want to go, let Wanxi take some people out. “

Shen Jingyuan thought slightly, there was a trace of impetuousness hidden in his long narrow eyes, and he said after a long time: "I will go to ask my father for instructions." ”

Su Wanxi's face flashed with pride, and then she said lightly: "Don't worry, the prince, I will explain where the emperor is, presumably the prince himself will be able to solve this case." ”

"Hmm. Shen Jingyuan asked absentmindedly, but he was thinking about other things.

Su Wanxi looked at Shen Jingyuan's appearance and was slightly puzzled, but since her goal had been achieved, she had no intention of paying attention to other things, and Ying Ying said: "The prince has prepared early, and I will go back first." ”

"I don't send it. Shen Jingyuan watched Wanxi leave slowly, and his eyes became extremely ruthless.

Su Wanxi pressed herself step by step, she was already the woman of her father, but she always remembered herself. And he, as the crown prince of the dynasty, can be as much a woman as he wants to be a woman who will never get it.

As soon as he left the palace this time, Shen Jingyuan was not a fool, he could see the intention behind Su Wanxi, and on the grounds of going out of the palace to find someone to help the emperor, he actually wanted to get close to him. And Shen Jingyuan would agree, but not to fulfill her wish. She is just the emperor's woman, an innocuous identity, but he is a dignified prince, the future king, and it is impossible for him to abandon his future to cross the gap that cannot be turned back.

The reason why Shen Jingyuan agreed was because the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including the emperor, regarded the case of Concubine Xian as extremely important, especially Concubine Xian's father, Lord Sun, if the case was not resolved, Lord Sun would be unwilling. As the founding father, Lord Sun had a great influence among the ministers, and Shen Jingyuan had to take this factor into account in order to ascend the throne in the future. Secondly, the prince and the concubine went out in person, it must have found some ironclad evidence, the murderer in the shadows learned that Xu Hui couldn't bear it, as long as the murderer started to act, then even if he couldn't find an important witness, he could directly "catch the murderer in bed".

It's just that...... Shen Jingyuan looked slightly heavy, and it was not surprising how the murderer would act. Maybe he will directly send someone to kill himself and Su Wanxi before they find witnesses, or maybe a more vicious character can send someone to assassinate himself and Su Wanxi outside the palace without fear.

It seems that this journey is destined to attract a bloody storm.

In March, the mountain road is winding, the green grass on both sides, and occasionally a few wild flowers show their spring posture. The mountain-blue carriage slowly traveled on the winding road, and Wan Xi and Shen Jingyuan sat opposite each other in casual clothes in the carriage, and it was quite quiet along the way.

Su Wanxi wore a plain white makeup and satin dress today, wearing a simple bun with clouds and a little makeup powder, since the main gate of the palace came out, the whole person felt refreshed, and suddenly relaxed a lot.

Su Wanxi stretched out her hand to open the curtain and looked into the distance, the green hills were continuous, and the aroma of the soil and grass was fresh and pleasant.

If only this were an elopement carriage...... Su Wanxi was stunned and smiled bitterly, how could she have such an idea. This time I came out, but it was not a tour of the mountains and rivers...... Shen Jingyuan would agree to leave the palace with her, and she still had a few doubts, but no matter what his purpose was, her purpose would not be forgotten.

The information of the palace maid recorded that her name was Liu Yue, twenty-five years old, and her family was adjacent to Xinghua Village, Nanzhen, so Su Wanxi's destination on their trip was Xinghua Village.

"What are you thinking?" The two rarely talked along the way, and Shen Jingyuan couldn't help but ask as he watched Su Wanxi look out the window and lose his mind.

Su Wanxi came back to her senses, slowly lowered the curtain, looked at Shen Jingyuan and said with a light smile: "It's been some time since we left the palace, and I don't know if we have left Lin'an." ”

Shen Jingyuan thought for a moment, and said again: "At this speed, I'm afraid it will take another hour to get out of Lin'an." ”

"I've never found Lin'an so big. Su Wanxi chuckled, with a little helplessness.

Shen Jingyuan was silent, and Su Wanxi said again for a long time: "I've been looking forward to a day for a long time." It's a pity that although I came out, I still have to go back. ”

"The concubine thinks that the brocade clothes and jade food in the palace are not good?"

Su Wanxi smiled faintly and said: "We are all out of the palace, and there are not so many rules, you and I should call our names, so as not to let others hear it." ”

"Hmm. ”

Su Wanxi said again: "No matter how gorgeous it is, it's just a cage, what about brocade clothes and jade food, if I choose it myself, I would rather have coarse tea and light rice, and be at ease." ”

Shen Jingyuan raised his lips and said, "I think the palace is good, sit and watch the land of the common people." ”

Su Wanxi smiled faintly and nodded her head in approval, but her heart was pricked by needles. Heh, this is, I think the most important thing in his life is the throne, for the sake of the throne, he can give up anything. Throne...... Hehe, Shen Jingyuan, the more you want to get it, the more I want you to lose!

Whether it is the country or the power, as long as it is what you want, it will eventually fall into my hands! And you, with your own eyes, will see with your own eyes how I get and destroy what you deserve!
