Chapter 208: The Seven-Day Period
Yue Xiaoxiao was happy for a while, and directly called his second brother crazy.
"Oh no, I hope his people aren't around."
Yue Xiaoxiao realized after realizing it.
"Yes, whether it will succeed or not, you have to fight once, do you have a way to introduce me to it?" Shunhua's eyes were very determined.
"Yes, yes."
Yue Xiaoxiao thought to herself, don't be in a hurry to tell her that her brother is in Wanqiong, so as not to scare her.
"Frankly speaking, even Bengong can't guess what the second brother is thinking, he laughs, not necessarily happy, he frowns, and he doesn't necessarily get angry, but, as long as he is a little dissatisfied, he will take your life, you just got married, do you really want to take such a big risk?"
"Xiaoxiao, there is no country, where is the home, now my Yan family has a big business, if I can't keep the diplomatic relations between the two countries, what to do is in vain, if there is really a war, I can escape, he can escape, then what about the Yan family, what about the people, where can they flee?"
Looking at those moist eyes, Yue Xiaoxiao nodded, deeply touched.
"Bengong understands, Bengong will find a way to introduce you to my second brother in the near future, but you have to be ready, it's best, find a few more martial arts masters to protect you, although my crazy second brother is very persistent, when he is angry, the person he wants to kill must be killed, however, you don't have to worry too much, in case you anger him, Bengong will try its best to intercede for you, I hope he can read the love of the past palace favor, stop."
"Uh... Is he really so murderous without blinking? Shunhua worried.
"yes, you don't even know him..."
It was he who sent someone to assassinate Fu Muhibiscus, and he was the murderer who caused you to almost be separated forever.
Shunhua looked at Yue Xiaoxiao, who was about to speak in confusion, and asked, "Xiaoxiao?" What happened to him? ”
"He's a person, he kills decisively, and he doesn't follow the routine at all, sometimes, you can't imagine what he will do, and most importantly, he is elusive, and the next moment, he will appear in your line of sight... Yes! ”
Before she finished speaking, she saw the familiar mask through the window, and it was over, and it turned out that her mad second brother had been listening.
actually eavesdropped on the conversation at his daughter's house, is there any quality?
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you?" Shun Hua turned around suspiciously, "Is there any bug that scares you?" ”
"Of course not, although the roof of your house is a little broken, it is better to be clean, and the palace is very comfortable."
"Xiaoxiao, if Minghua and Wan Qiong really fight, you better find a place to hide first, so as to be safe."
Yue Xiaoxiao nodded, as if she understood, and asked:
"By the way, did you tell the little white-faced doctor about the peace talks with my second brother?"
Hearing this, Shun Hua blinked his eyes and shook his head.
"Won't you tell him?" Xiaoxiao was surprised.
"I listened to your suggestion, went to the temple and wrote two letters of life, I didn't believe in life, but, I'm worried about him, the book of life says that if we force ourselves together, we will die for a lifetime, and now, I'm a bit of a godless." She thought it was funny herself.
"No, maybe it's the person who approved the book, the Tao is not enough, find a few more fortune tellers, maybe the result will be different."
Unexpectedly, Yue Xiaoxiao was more nervous than herself, and Shun Hua smiled.
"Okay, if this matter is resolved, we will have a chance to meet."
In fact, Shunhua had already made up his mind and made a decision in his heart.
If she could save his life, she would give up her heart ruthlessly.
Whether it is thousands of miles away or at the ends of the earth, she is willing to go.
Yue Xiaoxiao didn't understand what Shunhua meant, she just thought it was her second brother who was afraid of moodiness.
"Yes." Yue Xiaoxiao shook her hand back and said confidently: "You are the most suitable pair I have ever seen, if you don't succeed, let Xiaoxiao believe in the future, and he can find the person who is destined." ”
"Silly girl, listen to your tone, it seems like it's true."
"Of course it's true, whoever Xiaoxiao lies, he won't lie to you, it's not early, and the palace is going back."
"You're leaving? Do you want to go back to Wanqiong Palace? Shunhua looked at her suspiciously.
Yue Xiaoxiao shook her head.
"Hui Minghua, don't worry, if this palace can persuade the second brother to meet with you, I will definitely write to inform you, within seven days, no matter whether it works out or not, unless I die, otherwise, you will definitely be able to receive a reply from this palace."
It was the first time Shunhua had seen such an unwavering gaze in Yue Xiaoxiao's eyes.
"Okay, I'll wait for you, seven days."
If this matter does not work out within seven days, she will set off on horseback, tens of millions of Minghua, and personally find Minghua's monarch to negotiate peace.
"No matter whether our two countries will fight in the future, we will always be good friends, right?"
Shunhua held back her sour nose and nodded.
"Yes, always."
Before getting into the carriage, Yue Xiaoxiao, who was wearing a veil, turned around and hugged Shunhua, her eyes were red and her eyes were full of tears.
"Hua Lang, you must take care, Xiaoxiao doesn't understand the righteousness of the family and the country, but, Xiaoxiao understands, Xiaoxiao doesn't want you to have anything, you have to live, no matter what, live, you know? Xiaoxiao, I hope to see you again. ”
"Silly girl, yes, we'll definitely meet again."
Shunhua held back her tears, leaned against Xiaoxiao's shoulder, and nodded.
The raindrops fell from the sky, like thousands of thin lines, gently falling on the two people, and the palace maid held an umbrella for Yue Xiaoxiao and reminded: "Princess, when you are about to apply, if you can't afford to go, the rain will be too strong, and the carriage will not be easy to go." ”
Hearing this, Xiaoxiao and Shunhua slowly let go of each other, and the two women looked at each other, just like when they were children, two children who cared for each other.
How many good friends in life, once separated, never seen again.
Shunhua quietly watched Yue Xiaoxiao's carriage disappear at the end of sight.

In the evening, Chen You looked at the torrential rain outside the window attentively, quietly listening to the sound of the rain, playing in his ears, the cold wind continued to rush into the cracks by the window, plopping on his face, blowing his nose red.
Ning Xiaoxiao, who was dozing off on the couch, suddenly let out a heartfelt sigh.
"Ah, this kind of weather is the best time to sleep."
"What do you sleep, get up and investigate the case."
Chen You threw it over, and Ning Xiaoxiao, who closed her eyes and recuperated, just raised her hand and caught it, but before she thought about it, Chen You threw another copy and covered it directly on his face.
"Hmm...."
He opened his bewitching eyes and looked at Tatsu Right with a demonic look.
"The male corpse brought by the Nine Princes, hasn't it been confirmed, the dead person is a flower thief, and now the girl in the main city dares to wear a flower skirt on the street again, and even the grandmother who sells vegetables is dressed like a fire phoenix, isn't it good?"
"What's good, Jade-sama... The two corpses of the Yu Xiangfeng family are still in the yamen. Chen You said with a serious expression.
"Speaking of which, how has Yu Xiangfeng been lately?"
"Don't get off the hook." Tatsumi said solemnly.
"Yo yo yo, as soon as it rains, your temper starts to be irritable, it's easy to get old, isn't it raining, you will remember that incident back then?" Ning Xiaoxiao joked half-jokingly.
"I wonder what you're talking about?" Chen You lowered his head again, picked up the brush, and pretended that nothing had happened.
Well?
A hint of playfulness flashed in Ning Xiaoxiao's eyes.
"Actually, you don't have to mind what happened back then, after all, there was a fire in your home back then, if normal people would rush home, how would you know that there was a person buried nearby."
"That's enough, don't mention it again."
"Yes, yes, this matter will never be mentioned in Miss Yan's mouth, even if you meet it on the street by chance, gossip, you will not mention that if you don't have a fire in your home, you will almost become her life-saving benefactor."
"Who's gossiping about that!"
Chen You was about to be angry with the naughty Ning Xiaoxiao, and the corners of someone's mouth rose wildly, looking like the conspiracy had succeeded, and he couldn't stop laughing.
"Hahaha..."
In an instant, Chen turned the brush right, pointed the tip of the brush at Ning Xiaoxiao's fair neck, and threatened:
"If you don't talk about the case, if you don't investigate, if you don't investigate, this ink will drip on your clothes."
"You dare!" Ning Xiaoxiao frowned, her expression was very serious, "Do you know how many times Lord Ben's clothes have to be rubbed to be so white and clean?" ”
"If you don't want to do the laundry all night, just hurry up."
Finally, someone gave in, and he stepped back tremblingly and said, "Lord Ben checks, can't you check?" ”
Chen You raised his eyebrows slightly, put away the brush, and said seriously:
"Hmph, you have to force the official to make a move, I really don't shed tears when I don't see ink."
Ning Xiaoxiao obediently opened the case file, recalled the situation of the day, and analyzed as she walked:
"Let's talk about Xu's case first, that day, Lord Ben took the opportunity to enter the room where the deceased lived before his death, it was neat, there was no trace of struggle, except for a few burnt long strands of hair on the bed, there was nothing too much to find, but there were two very strange points."
"Which two?"
Tatsu's right hand holding the pen paused.
"The first point, there are traces of wetting on the quilt, a little dirty, of course, it is not excluded that Mrs. Yu accidentally dripped the medicinal soup on the quilt when she was feeding the sick mother, and the second point is that there is a place on the beam that is particularly clean, and there is no dust at all."
"Where?"
Ning Xiaoxiao tapped her head with her fingertips, thought about it, and replied:
"It's where she lies straight on the bed, right in front of her eyes."
"So weird?"
"What's even stranger is that the roof tiles still have traces of being lifted."
"Didn't you say there were only two points?"
Chen, who was recording, glanced at him.
"Really, Lord Chenyou's true love and care."
Ning Xiaoxiao lay back on the couch, held the case file, and looked at the details described on it carefully.
"What about you, what did you find?"
"It's all very general things, at that time, the Yu family and his wife watched closely, the servants didn't dare to speak, and the confessions were almost the same, and they all said that no one had entered Xu's room after three minutes."
"Could the poison in her be a chronic poison, that is, to feed it little by little for a long time, and then accumulate to a certain extent, and then die of poison on that day?" Ning Xiaoxiao rarely analyzed seriously.
"Do you suspect that the murderer is Madame Jade?"
"The maid said that the day before the accident, Mrs. Yu and the deceased had a quarrel, and the deceased lost his temper and knocked over the medicine." Ning Xiaoxiao stretched out her index finger and turned the case around.
"Murder your own mother for the sake of the medicine you spilled?"
"You don't think that's possible?" Ning Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Have you forgotten the tragedy in the tavern before?" The murderer killed someone else's whole family just because he was accidentally hit by the boss when he was eating steamed buns. ”
Chen You suddenly fell into a long period of thinking, and suddenly, he raised his eyes and analyzed:
"It's not impossible, the poison in her is Hedinghong, which happens to be in line with what you think, but the Yu family has always asked a doctor to treat him, and it is impossible not to notice it."
"Therefore, there is only one possibility left, that is, the murderer made a lot of weight on the day she died."
"Then how did she kill people, she mixed Heding red directly in a bowl, and it was estimated that she was poisoned on the spot after drinking it, but the maids all said that Mrs. fell asleep after drinking the medicine at that time, and she was found dead in bed in the middle of the night."
"Alas - after discussing it for so long, it still turned out that nothing was found, and if you don't understand how the murderer poisoned it one day, you won't know who the murderer is one day?"
Ning Xiaoxiao put down the case file, put a pair of long legs on the couch, and sighed.
"Not necessarily."
"Do you have a way?"
