"The prince invited Mr. for the prince, not only to learn knowledge, but also to learn the truth of how to behave in the world. Concubine Su smiled faintly, "Seeing that the prince has not only made progress in his studies, but also can distinguish between right and wrong, I am even more gratified." ”

Concubine Su's appearance is praising the prince, but on the side, the second lady is not as reasonable as a child.

The second lady snorted coldly, not wanting to argue with Concubine Su more because of Mo Ziyu's matter.

The princess ordered someone to bring everyone a bowl of lotus seed soup, first pad the stomach, after eating, she pretended to ask casually: "Mrs. Ning, I heard that a girl died in Qiushuiyuan two days ago, and the rest of the matter can be dealt with?" I heard that she committed suicide. ”

Mo Ziyu paused and said, "It's a maidservant who died." ”

The second lady sneered: "How could a good person think of committing suicide?

"It's not suicide. Mo Ziyu said, "It's killed." ”

"Killed?" the second lady's face changed, "Don't talk nonsense, this is the palace, how could this kind of thing happen?"

"Do you have any proof?" asked the princess, "what about the murderer?

Mo Ziyu smiled faintly: "I already know who the murderer is." ”

"Oh?" the princess's eyes rolled slightly, "Now that you know the murderer, you should take care of it, what are you waiting for?"

"This person is a bit special, and I want to give her a chance. Mo Ziyu said, "I hope she can take the initiative to turn me in, if she doesn't take the initiative to find me before dawn tomorrow, it's not too late to take her." ”

"How can you conclude that this man is the murderer?" the princess then asked.

"There is nothing airtight in this world, there will always be some evidence. Mo Ziyu said, "The murderer may have been weak in heart after killing, and did not check to understand, when she killed, Bai Ling carved a word on one leg of the table with her fingernails, and none of us paid attention to it at first, and later when she checked Bai Ling's body, she found some sawdust in her fingernails, which was discovered." It can be regarded as God has eyes, so that Bailing can sink his grievances. ”

Approaching the end of the year, it was not very auspicious to talk about the dead, but everyone did not continue to discuss this topic, and said some interesting things that happened in Beijing, and after a while, Liu Xu finally came back.

"The prince is back, but what is delayed?" the princess greeted with a smile.

"Well, some government affairs to deal with. Liu Xu said lightly, "If you have been waiting for a long time, you should be hungry, right?" Don't be stunned, let's eat." ”

The princess took Liu Xu's cloak and instructed her subordinates to prepare a meal.

Everyone sat down to eat together, and the princess told the story of the arrival of several ladies today, and these rich people all represented the meaning of their men. Although the You family was driven out of the capital, because of the Yang family's prominence now, and Liu Xu himself also has a lot of supporters around him, whether they are civil officials or military generals, so those who are watching the development of the situation coldly also put the treasure on him, and there are few people who come to test and express their attitudes now.

The princess treats people perfectly, but Liu Xu's relationship with her is not very close, and many things above the court and politics have not been told to her, so that she will not be afraid when receiving these edicts, for fear of being taken advantage of, and those people have not received any useful news from her, so she is also a little disappointed.

Liu Xu listened silently, and praised the princess's thoughtfulness in dealing with people, but some core things, still did not explain, the princess couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and she didn't know how to melt away this layer of estrangement between her and the princess, and she couldn't help but be very tired in her heart. If there was a piece of ice on the other side, she was confident that she could glorify it, but it was a stone, and no matter how hard he tried, he wouldn't lose half of it.

"Isn't the Queen Mother very sad about last night's incident. The second lady asked, "Do you want to enter the palace to accompany the queen mother?"

Liu Xu drank a few mouthfuls of soup, put down the soup spoon, and said: "The Queen Mother has gone through three dynasties, how many ups and downs have been experienced, and those many stormy waves have passed, will you take that little thing to heart? ”

"Yes. The second lady lowered her eyes and said.

When I was eating, I suddenly heard someone hurrying inside and saying, "Qiushuiyuan is out of the water!"

"What?" Mo Ziyu's brows furrowed, "What's the matter?"

"Hurry up and get someone to put out the fire. The princess hurriedly got up and said, "Are there any casualties?"

The guard reported: "The fire has been contained, and the arsonist has been caught red-handed. ”

"Caught red-handed?" the princess's face froze.

"There is such a thing. Liu Xu's calm face said coldly, "Dare to set fire to King Qi's mansion, I'm impatient, bring people!"

"Yes. ”

Liu Xu asked Concubine Su to take Liu Changqing back to rest first, but he went to the living room, accompanied by the three princesses, and after a while, he saw that Qingling was pressing the prisoner who set the arson, and this annoying person was none other than Yun'er.

"I've seen the prince, I've seen the princess, I've seen the two ladies. Qing Ling saluted, "This person set fire to Qiushui Garden, was caught by the slave on the spot, and now he is pressed over and handed over to the prince for disposal." ”

"Wronged!" Yun'er hurriedly shouted wronged, "The slave just accidentally knocked over the candlestick, and there was no arson at all! Qingling, I have no grievances with you, why do you wronged me, you are ** death!"

Qing Ling smiled faintly: "I only believe the news that my eyes see. If you hadn't set the fire, what would you do in the room where the lark was parked?"

"I've known Bai Ling for a long time, and when she happened to her, I felt a lot of nostalgia in my heart, and I went to her room just to feel the breath of her when she was still alive. Yun'er said, "It's just that I accidentally knocked over the candlestick, it's not arson at all." ”

"What, Bailing is dead?" asked Liu Xu with a frown.

Mo Ziyu nodded and said: "Yes, Bailing died a few days ago, we thought she was **, but later found out that she was murdered." ”

"Murder?" Liu Xu's brows furrowed, "I really didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen in King Qi's Mansion, what about the murderer?

"Lord Qiqi, the murderer has been found. Qing Ling hugged his fists and said, "The murderer is Yun'er." ”
