After sitting in the carriage for a while, he was a little tired, so Rong Rongci only took a little lunch and went to take a nap.

It was still the middle of spring, the daylight was not warm, and a light rain fell after noon, and the coolness increased sharply after the rain stopped.

Rong Wangci sensed the cold, and then couldn't sleep steadily, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a long figure standing naked in the inner hall, it was Su Zhi.

"The king, the prince......"

Rong Rongci propped up his body in a daze, and subconsciously called out, regretting it as soon as the voice came out.

Su Zhi is extremely energetic, even if he gets up early every day to go to court, at night, he doesn't feel tired, he always tosses her to the point of soreness, but he himself looks satisfied.

It's just that it's too late for Rong to regret it now, Su Zhi has already set his eyes on her, pursed his lips and smiled, and then took a step towards the collapse.

Seeing Su Zhiguang walking closer and closer with his upper body naked, Rong Wangci was a little drumming in his heart, but he still calmed down.

"Why doesn't the prince wear clothes......"

Hearing this, Su Zhijian raised his eyebrows: "I just came back from riding a horse and got drenched in the rain, and my clothes were wet, so I naturally had to take them off and change them, what does the lady think?" ”

Rong Rongci's face immediately flew a flush, and he hurriedly turned his face away to avoid Su Zhi's playful gaze.

"Lord Wang, hurry up and change into clean clothes, so as not to catch a cold."

"Oh?"

Rong Rongci, who turned her face away, only heard Su Zhi ask in a deep voice, and then her body was encircled by the man's naked body.

"Lord Wang! Blue sky and white day......"

Rong Yong couldn't say anything anymore after half of his words, so he could only keep his head down and not let Su Zhi see her expression at all.

"You and I have been married for many days, what have you never seen or done, why are you still so shy?"

A slightly smiling voice brushed in Rong Rongci's ears, and she only felt hot flashes on her cheeks, and she was silent for a while before she managed to calm down.

"Lord, you always tease me......"

There is also a hint of anger in the delicate voice, the beauty is in her arms, and it is so touching, no one can help it, right?

But Su Zhi's gaze froze, and the arm that was originally holding Rong Wangci immediately loosened a little.

"Did the lady go out today?"

As soon as the words turned, Su Zhi's voice was no longer restrictive, but mixed with a bit of sharpness.

Rong Rongci's eyelids jumped, and he said honestly: "I only took a carriage and walked around Jianxing Street." ”

"What did you see?" Su Zhi asked again.

"It's nothing special, but I happened to meet a lady who was making trouble in the silk shop, as if the satin was not very satisfactory, and she was noisy for a while."

"There is a restaurant on Jianxing Street where the charcoal roast duck is very good, and the husband remembers that it is called "Xianglai Building", didn't the lady go to see it? ”

"This..."Rong Wangci raised his head to look at Su Zhi and shook his head: "I didn't pay attention, it seems that I haven't seen such a restaurant." ”

Su Zhi had already let go of his arm as he spoke, looked at Rong Wangci's slightly frowning brows, stretched out his hand and stroked it gently: "It's because my husband is mistaken, Xianglai Building is on Pingde Street, and you are in Jianxing Street, so naturally you can't see it." ”

Rong Rong's words are unclear: "Is the prince trying to trick me?" ”

Su Zhi was slightly stunned.

He naturally knew that his princess was extremely smart and clever, but he didn't want her to be so bold, so he directly pierced the trap in his words.

"What is the lady talking about?" Su Zhi pretended not to know.

Rong Rongci still had gentle eyes and pursed his lips: "The prince said that there is no nature, it is no, I am too careful." ”

"What does the lady care?"

"Today, the Xiwan delegation roared into the palace, and it attracted many people to see the excitement, and the prince also hurried into the palace early in the morning, thinking that something was wrong. I chose to go out for a stroll today, but it was really unfortunate, and I was suspicious of the prince. ”

Su Zhi had doubts in his heart, and he could see the grievances and depression on the face of the woman in front of him, and no matter how deep the suspicion was, he could only let it go first.

After all, the case can be investigated slowly, but if her heart is far away, I am afraid it will be difficult to recover, and he is anxious to know whether this matter is related to her, and it is not to cure her crimes, he needs to understand the cause and effect in order to protect her.

Su Zhi coaxed softly for a while, Rong Rongci was still sullen, and he wanted to appease a few more words, but Xi Zhu's voice outside the door rang out.

"Lady, apologize for your husband later, if there is something right now, don't annoy me."

Rong Wangci pouted and nodded, her appearance was very cute, so that Su Zhi couldn't help but reach out and pinch her face again, and then left.

As soon as Su Zhi went out, Rong Rongci still looked half aggrieved and coquettish, only quietly looking at the direction of Su Zhi's departure, and his eyes were clear and abnormal.

Su Zhi went out and went to the courtyard with Xi Zhu.

Xi Zhu looked around for a while, and then spoke: "Master, my subordinates have seen the corpse, and they did kill with a hairpin." ”

"It looks like it's probably a woman......"

"Princess, she..."

Xi Zhu only said a few words, and was coldly looked at by Su Zhi's sudden direct gaze, so he had to be silenced.

"Are there any other traces?"

"No, the scene was handled very cleanly, except for the fact that the murder weapon can be judged from the wound, the rest have no traces."

Su Zhi nodded, and took out a note from his arms: "The only clue left is this note." ”

Seeing that Su Zhi didn't mean to hand over the note to himself, Xi Zhu didn't move, just stood in place, quietly waiting for the order.

"I'll personally investigate the princess's affairs, don't make your own decisions."

Although Su Zhi's voice was calm, Xi Zhu knew very well that this was already a very serious warning, so he nodded hurriedly, and then quietly retreated.

Only Su Zhi was left in the courtyard.

Perhaps because of the rain just now, there was still some water in the potholes on the side of the stone road in the courtyard, and the leaves could not bear the weight of the accumulated water droplets, so they slowly overturned, and in a flash, the water droplets fell and smashed on the green grass and shallow puddles.

Su Zhi looked down at the note for a long time, then raised his head and turned his gaze to the distant sky.

She is by no means a person as simple as she seems on the surface, Su Zhi knows this very well.

Her gentleness and deference, her delicate and lovely, everything is nothing more than a mask of hypocrisy wrapped in the real her.

But just how complicated is she?

Ah Yan is burly and a person who practices martial arts, killing with one move, and leaving no traces, if she really did it, then she is no longer the clear-eyed and somewhat weak little girl she was back then.

She is strong enough, strong enough to set off a bloody storm in this Shangyin Imperial City, so strong that even if she serves the enemy with her body, she will not change her face.

Su Zhi's heart suddenly throbbed for a moment.

He knows very well what a clean and bright person needs to go through in order to become ruthless and step by step, because this is how he got to where he is today.

He stood at the pinnacle of Shang Yin's power, but he no longer had his beloved father and emperor, and he no longer had his brother who doted on him, all he had left was responsibility, only the boundless loneliness of the long night.

So, he had to hold on to her, the only light left in his life.
