Chapter 158: Suspicion

The prince didn't just talk, he really went to the kitchen to make mutton steamed buns for Li Siyu. When the prince, who never came to the kitchen, arrived in the kitchen, he made the kitchen people scramble, and they didn't know what he was coming for, and thought that their dish was not to be done to their taste.

When they learned of the prince's intention, they breathed a sigh of relief, and it turned out that they were going to eat mutton steamed buns. If you want to eat, you just have to ask someone to give you orders, so why bother to come by yourself?

What the? Want to do it yourself?

Did they hear it wrong? Definitely!

The cook said: "The kitchen is heavily oily, if the prince wants to eat mutton steamed buns, we will send it to you, you go back quickly!" ”

The prince said: "This prince wants to do it himself, you give me a hand." ”

Everyone in the kitchen was stunned.

Two hours later, the prince knocked on Li Siyu's door with mutton steamed buns, Li Siyu looked at the prince who was full of wolves, and couldn't help frowning, he really did it.

Li Siyu asked the prince to sit down, and then said, "Your Royal Highness the prince, I think it is necessary to paint a portrait of you now." ”

The prince said: "Could it be that you have taken a fancy to me?" ”

Li Siyu said: "Don't you look in the mirror? ”

The prince immediately walked to the dressing mirror and looked at it, and then his expression was a little strange, it turned out that his face was covered with face ash and pot ash. The prince smiled charmingly, "I think it's good!" ”

"Then does the prince dare to go out like this?" The corners of Li Siyu's mouth rose slightly, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were smiling.

The prince couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw her smiling, and then said, "Why don't you dare, but this kind of thing that affects the image of the prince is not willing to do." ”

He saw that Li Siyu didn't move the mutton steamed bun on the table. I couldn't help but say: "Although it doesn't look good, but the taste is okay, don't you want to try it?" ”

Li Siyu smiled evilly. "I suddenly don't want to eat."

She looked at the prince and wanted to see him angry, but she was doomed to be disappointed, for instead of being angry, the prince smiled. He said, how could he want to eat what he made, and sure enough, he deliberately played tricks on him.

The prince said: "That's right." I'm hungry, and if you don't eat, I'll eat. ”

The prince ate it to himself, and it seemed to taste really good. He ate with relish.

Li Siyu said seemingly casually: "I lack something." ”

The prince frowned, he had clearly instructed the housekeeper to prepare all the things that Li Siyu might use, didn't the housekeeper do it?

"Something missing. I'll have someone buy it for you. ”

Li Siyu said: "You don't need to buy it, because you have it there." I just get bored sometimes and want to find some books to read. ”

The prince said: "You can read the books in the prince's study at will." He thought for a while and said, "You can just take whatever you want from this house." ”

Li Siyu said: "Are you afraid that I will empty your prince's mansion?" ”

The prince said: "After emptying, I will spend money to buy things and come back to fill up." ”

The crown prince is the crown prince. Sure enough, it's bold enough.

When Cao Xiuling came to see him again, Li Siyu said: "You are all pregnant, don't always come to me." ”

Cao Xiuling smiled slightly, "You're not far away, it's good for me to chat with you to relieve my boredom." ”

Li Siyu said: "I see that Ouyang Gongzi comes with you every time, doesn't he have to be busy with other things?" ”

Cao Xiuling didn't think much about it, she said: "Actually, he has been very busy recently, but he said that it is more important to accompany me, so he always accompanies me." ”

She looked happy. felt that Ouyang Chengming was very good to her.

Li Siyu reminded: "When did he start being good to you?" ”

Cao Xiuling thought about it carefully, and then said: "Some time ago, Mu Xiangling suddenly fell out of favor. After that, Cheng Ming slowly got better to me. Since returning to his parents' home, he has been very good to me. ”

Li Siyu thought about it carefully, Mu Xiangling's fall from grace should have been after her conflict with Mu Xiangling, could it be that he gradually became kind to Cao Xiuling after the last time they met? No, Li Siyu Lima asked, "When did you go back to your mother's house?" ”

Cao Xiuling's expression was gloomy, and she said, "Just the day before you and your eldest brother got married." You had already gone to the General's Mansion at that time, so you don't know. "The Cao family was fine the day before, but who knew that the Cao family would be gone the next day. She didn't expect that after meeting her mother's family that day, it would become a dead farewell.

Li Siyu said: "Why did you go back to the Cao family at that time?" She didn't think she was going back to help, because there were a lot of people in the Cao Mansion, and she didn't need her to help at all.

Cao Xiuling said: "It was Cheng Ming who said that I hadn't been back to my parents' house for a long time, so take me back to have a look." ”

Li Siyu's brain is running rapidly, connecting a lot of things together. Why did Ouyang Chengming go to Cao's Mansion at that time? Also, on the second day he went to Caofu, he was found in Caofu with evidence of rebellion. It's just such a coincidence. Thinking that Ouyang Chengming was the prince's person, Li Siyu had to suspect that the prince instructed Ouyang Chengming to hide those forged letters in the Cao Mansion, and then the prince went to search it out again and framed the Cao family for rebellion.

Those letters were found in Cao Hou's study, and the people who could enter Cao Hou's study would definitely not be outsiders, so this matter was done by people inside. This person is very likely to be Ouyang Chengming.

Ouyang Chengming hurt the Cao family and felt guilty, so he was very kind to Cao Xiuling, wanting to alleviate his guilt. He is the son-in-law of the Cao family, but he is also a henchman of the prince, and the prince is more important to him than the Cao family, so he gave up the Cao family for the sake of the prince. Besides, he didn't want to be the son-in-law of the Cao family. He resented Cao Xiuling for deceiving her, so doing so could be regarded as revenge on her. Of course, there is also a possibility that Ouyang Chengming is taking revenge on Li Siyu, and he doesn't want her to marry Cao An.

Li Siyu feels that the former is the most likely, and the latter two are less likely.

Li Siyu did not tell Cao Xiuling of her suspicions, because Cao Xiuling was pregnant, and she didn't want her to worry about it. She decided to find out secretly first.

Li Siyu asked Fang Yu to investigate Ouyang Chengming on the one hand, and on the other hand, he looked for clues from the prince. She searched the prince's study, but she couldn't find the slightest thing she was looking for.

She understood that the reason why the prince allowed her to walk in the palace without restricting her freedom must be that she was sure that she would not find anything useful.

She didn't gain anything from the prince, so she hit Ouyang Chengming with her idea. She figured she could find some clues by starting with him.

Li Siyu told the prince that she was going to Shangshu Mansion to visit the door and stay with Cao Xiuling for a few days. The prince didn't say a word, and arranged for her to send her a carriage and horse.

Pan Jie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Siyu was finally gone, he couldn't relax in the slightest when she was in the house for a day, he was afraid that she would do something unfavorable to the prince. He hoped that she would not come back after she had gone, so that he would have a lot of peace of mind. (To be continued.) )
