Chapter 53: Ordered to Investigate

If Leng Yixiu's statement is confirmed that the prince did not commit suicide, then who else will believe that the prince's death is related to Leng Yixiu?

Who would be so stupid as not to push the boat down the river, but to provoke the suspicion on themselves?

Okay, good, very good, Leng Yiwei sneered in his heart, and the pale fingers in his sleeve tapped lightly, and he could overturn the two assumptions of himself and the fifth brother at once, killing two birds with one stone, really scheming!

"The third brother is right!" The four princes' eyes immediately lit up and bowed to the emperor.

The emperor's face was slightly gloomy, his eyes looked at Leng Yixiu suspiciously, his gaze was calm and waveless, like a calm sea, but in the depths of his eyes, there was a rolling surge.

Leng Yixiu stood with his head down, his waist straight, neither humble nor arrogant, standing calmly under the gaze of the emperor, without even moving his eyebrows.

The emperor did not suspect Leng Yixiu in his heart, after all, the death of the prince did happen after the truth of the Rong family's affairs was found out, and he did not order the prince to be executed, thinking of the kind of protection that the third child had for Rong Xi before, he believed that it was sincere, would he be angry and kill the prince?

He wasn't sure.

And now, he's even more uncertain.

"Father, have you ever asked him to inspect it? What was the cause of death of the second brother? The fourth prince broke the silence and asked.

"I've seen it," the emperor withdrew his gaze from Leng Yixiu, and anger surged up in his words, "Those useless things!" He said that he couldn't see why he died! ”

As soon as the emperor said this, the other people were no longer angry, and they didn't even know the cause of death, and there was no basis for arguing here.

There was an unbearable silence again, and even the rustling of the leaves outside the hall became clear, and the sound of insects under the trees seemed to be much louder, striking people's eardrums.

"What can you do?" After a long time, the emperor asked.

"The third brother often fights on the battlefield, presumably more than when we face death, and it can be regarded as well-informed, since you said that the second brother did not commit suicide, it is better to ...... Let the third brother find someone to prove it? The fifth prince suddenly spoke, with a provocation in his eyes, and looked at Leng Yixiu.

"One qiē Dan is decided by the emperor." Leng Yixiu did not answer his words, but arched his hand to face the emperor, his eyes were warm, calm and selfless.

"Okay," the emperor waved his hand, "the second child died a strange death, I can't find out the cause of his death, and I am also uneasy, since this is the case, Yixiu, tomorrow you will send someone to check it." ”

"Yes." Leng Yixiu said respectfully.

The eyes of the five princes were full of pride, humming...... The palace has not been tested, what capable people can you have in the army?

His eyes glanced at Leng Yiwei, who was sitting, and the eyes of the two collided, and then they quietly separated, and each turned his head.

Leng Yixiu hooked his lips and took a look at the lawsuit under their eyes, sure enough, the fifth and the eighth are related, but they are just ...... What brought them together?

It is nothing more than the word profit.

He thought about it slightly in his mind, and then, with a slight smile, he already understood.

Out of the palace gate, at the foot of the steps, the fifth prince arched his hand at Leng Yixiu, "Third brother, the fifth brother will talk about things today, don't blame me, the second brother died unjustly, we all want to find out the truth for him, don't we?" ”

He said apologetic words in his mouth, but the expression on his face did not mean apology, a smile slowly appeared on Leng Yixiu's face, the light in his eyes flashed, and he said softly: "How can the fifth brother determine that the second brother died unjustly?" What if he killed himself? ”

The fifth prince was slightly stunned, and felt that Leng Yixiu went back again, "Didn't you say that he couldn't kill himself?" ”

"Oh, yes." Leng Yixiu smiled and turned to leave.

"What do you mean?" The fifth prince stood in place, a little dazed, thinking about Leng Yixiu's smile when he left, and an inexplicable hatred suddenly welled up in his heart.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Leng Yiwei who was being supported by the little guy, and the anger in his tone was obvious, "What's the matter with you?" Why is it said that he committed suicide? It's good now, I was caught by the third child to make a fuss. ”

Leng Yiwei scolded in his heart, idiot! What you said is so explicit, for fear that others will not know that you are suspicious of Leng Yiwei, can you speak so thoroughly in front of the emperor? Besides, if you want it, the emperor can't think of it?

But he scolded in his heart, but there was a gentle smile on his face, "Fifth brother, I say this, it is also to cater to you, if the two of us are in the same tone, then the father will definitely be disgusted, besides, the younger brother thinks that the father also has doubts in his heart, if he says it too clearly, it will not be beautiful, it is not as good as now, although he did not immediately let his father punish him, but his father did not believe in him, otherwise he would not have handed over this inspection errand to him, there is no way to do the palace work, what can he do?" ”

The fifth prince listened to his words, frowned and pondered, the anger in his heart was suppressed a little, the words of the eighth child did have some truth, looking at his sick appearance, there were so many twists and turns in his stomach, "Well, you are reasonable." ”

After he said that, he no longer paid attention to Leng Yiwei and strode away.

Leng Yiwei looked at his back, and a grim smile appeared on his pale face, what a stupid ...... Is this unbearable? The reason why he treated Leng Yixiu like this must be because the promise given to him by the prince was not fulfilled, right?

The fifth prince went out of the palace, and saw that the strategist he brought was going around the side of the carriage, he walked a few steps quickly, and the strategist was just about to open his mouth, he pointed to the carriage, "Get in the carriage and talk." ”

The two men got into the carriage, and the advisor asked, "Master, how is the situation?" The expression of the fifth prince turned cold, master...... Hmph, among the six princes, only the third and eighth have been crowned kings, and the rest are not, and the third is just that, after all, there are military exploits there, but what about the eighth? Usually I don't do anything, I'm still a sick ghost!

I can only be called "Lord", and the two of them are "Lord", missing the word "King", this treatment is very different!

He didn't answer, and the strategist didn't dare to urge, he transported half the weather before he spoke: "As soon as the second child died, the boss immediately jumped out and said the same thing...... It's almost like saying that the second child died well! What stupidity! ”

"The eldest prince is not worried, it will never be his turn again, although he is the eldest son, but the identity of the mother is there, how can he not cross you." The strategist analyzed.

These words made the fifth prince's mood feel a little more relaxed, "I don't know how, how can the prince die if he is so good?" However, death is also timely, and as soon as I received the news yesterday that he was imprisoned and deposed, I was really shocked, in case ...... What if he bites me indiscriminately and summons me out? ”

"Yes, yesterday was really dangerous, but ......" the strategist shook his head slightly, "It's really a pity, the prince originally promised to let General Liu be his seat after Rong Hao's death, but now it seems ......"

"Not bad!" The fifth prince was furious when he thought of this, "The third child is really lucky!" There is such a father-in-law! Life is so hard! The father-in-law who is not like the master is still counting on the master to promote! ”

The strategist didn't dare to take such words, but just lowered his head and minimized his sense of existence.

In the red-sleeved garden of King Ning's mansion, Rong Xi returned to the courtyard after sending Rong Hao away, and found that the housekeeper was busy in the courtyard with some people, and when he saw her come in, he hurriedly saluted and said: "Say hello to the princess, the prince instructed the servants to get something for the princess, and the slave thought about it, and now it is a lotus." ”

Rong Xi looked at the several blue and white vats being arranged in the courtyard, these vats have delicate textures and elegant colors, which are very good decorations in themselves, and water is also put in the jars, and lotus flowers are cultivated in the water.

The large leaves are like small umbrellas that have been opened, and some water has splashed on the leaves because they have just been brought over, and they are like morning dew drops rolling on the leaves, crystal clear, and extremely lovely.

Most of the lotus flowers have not yet emerged, just a bag wrapped in green skin, and some of them have broken the green skin a little, revealing the white and tender pink inside, which makes people predict what the future will be.

Rong Xi didn't actually have too many requirements for these, but since he got it, he didn't bother with people's kindness, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can watch it." ”

There is really nothing to do, she just looked at the book under the corridor, she went to the front hall just now, and when she came back, she came to Leng Yixiu's book, and the ones in her room were either women's rings or those books that paid attention to what kind of woman Derong, it was enough to look at the book cover, or this military book was interesting.

Xiao'er was waiting by her side, peeking at the book in Rong Xi's hand, she couldn't understand a word of those words, I don't know when the young lady was interested in these? However, such a young lady is getting more and more imposing, eh...... Not bad.

Rong Xi was looking at it vigorously, but he felt that the two figures in the courtyard kept dangling, and one of them kept muttering: "Hey, this is not good......

"Hey, what can I do?"

"The prince is going to die of sorrow......"

Rong Xi sneered in his heart, this Leng Fifteen is really good at playing a living treasure, what's the matter? It's crooked here, but it's for yourself, right?

She pretended not to hear it, still looking at the book, Leng Fifteen saw that she didn't react, she leaned down the corridor, and her voice rose a few decibels, "This is a holy order, if you can't do it......"

"Poor lord......"

"Why is there so much to do?"

Rong Xi could feel Leng Fifteen's small eyes looking at him from time to time, observing his reaction, while Leng Fifteen stood aside holding the knife, and his eyes became more and more fierce.

"Filial piety......" Rong Xi closed the book and said lightly.

Leng Fifteen held his breath and pricked up his ears to listen, Leng Fifteen's gaze swept again.

"Let's go inside, it's too noisy here, there are flies." Rong Xi had no expression on his face, just waved his hand in disgust.

Leng Fifteen instantly felt like a fly waving his wings, and even seemed to hear a "buzzing" sound......
