Chapter 186: Death of a Clansman

Rong Xi looked at Mu Yan complainingly, thinking that he had pierced her mind.

Seeing that she was shy, Mu Guichen didn't continue the topic in the end, and looked at Mu Yan, after this time, Mu Yan really believed the two of them.

"What is happening in the DPRK today?"

Yesterday there was a lot of noise, although Rong Xi signed the edict of abdication, but the news of King Qingjiang's arrest in the evening still flew out of the palace.

Everyone naturally understood what was going on in their hearts, and they also knew that Mu Guichen, as Mu Yan's guardian, would never snatch Mu Yan's throne, and Mu Guichen was not touched by the temptation of the throne, which was what everyone admired the most.

Before this, Mu Guichen asked this question, Mu Yan must have doubted it, but now his life was saved by Mu Guichen.

"Today, many courtiers reported that they wanted to deal with the king of Qingjiang heavily, not only that, but also thoroughly investigate the fire in the Jiaofang Palace, and felt that this matter had something to do with the Du Mansion."

Pinching the sandalwood beads on his wrist and turning them slightly, Mu Yan replied.

"After all, Jiaofang Hall is where the mourning family lives, and the mourning family will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, so Your Majesty doesn't have to worry so much."

Putting down the lotus-shaped golden spoon, Rong Xi took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of Mu Guichen's mouth.

Mu Guichen smiled lightly at her, a little suddenly, Rong Xi turned red in an instant, and coughed lightly, as if complaining that he was not serious.

"The matter of King Qingjiang, there is no need to deal with it in such a hurry, after all, the matter of Jiaofang Palace still has to be captured and dealt with together."

Youyou said, Mu Guichen is in control, it seems that everything is in his expectation, this kind of confidence is because there is a huge force behind him.

"The prince is right, let this matter be handed over to the mourning family."

Gently bowed, after breakfast, Mu Guichen was still resting in the Furong Palace, and Mu Yan still had a large number of twists and turns to deal with, so he retreated first.

Helping Mu Guichen back to the chaise longue on the side, Rong Xi thought about going back to Jiaofang Hall first to find evidence.

"You're just leaving?"

Raising his eyebrows, Mu Guichen saw that she was also leaving, and he was a little unhappy in his heart.

It is not easy to take this opportunity for him to have a stronger relationship with Rong Xi, so that Rong Xi has affection for him.

"Or else? The matter of Jiaofang Hall is still waiting for me to deal with it, if I don't go, what will Du Yuwei say about this matter? ”

Rong Xi said that, he didn't give Mu Guichen a chance to speak, and resolutely walked out of the Furong Palace.

Lu Qi followed Rong Xi's side, and saw with her own eyes Mu Guichen's various kindness to Rong Xi, and naturally gave Mu Guichen a high score in her heart.

"Mother, this time it is thanks to the regent that you can be saved."

She said softly, meaning that she wanted Rong Xi to thank him well.

"Don't worry, I know what you mean."

Hooking her lips, Rong Xi thought of the situation in the fire yesterday, even if the people around her didn't remind her, she would definitely not dare to forget it.

It's just that the matter of Jiaofang Hall needs to be investigated, and she had no choice but to leave Mu Guichen.

Coming to the Jiaofang Palace, watching the former palace burned down, it was impossible for Rong Xi to feel a little touched in his heart.

In order to give Mu Yan for herself, she must find out the murderer.

"See the Queen Mother."

When she was about to go up to check, the person who arranged for Gonggong Lin to repair the Jiaofang Hall had already arrived, and when he saw Rong Xi, he seemed to be a little surprised, and immediately leaned over and saluted.

Rong Xi glanced at them lightly, nodded and said, "Get up." You are all the ones who repair the palace. ”

Glancing at the man with the mahogany box on his back in front of him, Rong Xi saw their identities at a glance, and the man immediately replied, not daring to hesitate at all: "Empress Dowager Qiyu, we are the one who arranged for Gonggong Lin to repair the palace. ”

"You go to the gazebo on the side to rest first, it's hot, look at the sweat on your side, Lu Qi, you go to the imperial study to get some tea and pastries and send them to the gazebo, let them rest for a while before coming."

Rong Xi spoke up, very considerate of everyone, they saw that she was so gentle and kind, they immediately thanked her, and happily went to the pavilion to wait.

Taking advantage of this time, Rong Xi stepped forward to check, wanting to see what was wrong before repairing the palace.

This thing is definitely not as simple as imagined.

"Mother, too."

Laughing softly, Lu Qi came back from delivering the pastries, and just saw her checking the scene, so she understood what she was doing that move, but Rong Xi was really not an easy one, taking advantage of this opportunity to win people's hearts.

"In the palace, it must be step by step."

Rong Xi said lightly, but there were not many emotional ups and downs.

After looking around the Jiaofang Palace, Rong Xi smelled the smell of fire oil, although after a night, the smell dispersed a lot, but her nose was not covered, not only that, the place that was poured with fire oil will be burned even more by the rest of the place, and you can know that it is man-made at a glance.

"Mother, what are those?"

Lu Qi stepped aside, and Rong Xi followed her words, and saw the barrel that had been discarded nearby and hit the fire oil.

"Come to think of it, after the murderer set the fire yesterday, he forgot to destroy the evidence."

As he was looking, he suddenly noticed that something seemed to be refracted by the sunlight in the grass beside him.

Rong Xi walked over slowly and saw the pearl hairpin on the ground.

"This is the Lord of Yiling!"

Lu Qi said in astonishment, recognizing it at a glance. Can you not recognize it? There is only one pearl hairpin, when Du Yuwei grabbed the pearl hairpin, but she didn't stop showing off, almost everyone knew the pearl hairpin in her hand.

hooked his lips, Rong Xi was very satisfied, and he didn't come in vain.

After carefully putting away the pearl hairpin, Rong Xi walked to the pavilion and saw that everyone had just finished eating pastries and tea, and was ready to get up to repair the palace.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Rong Xi smiled slightly, her original actions had already gathered people's hearts, how could there be masters who took the initiative to care about them after so many years in the palace.

After leaving happily one by one, Rong Xi took Lu Qi and turned around and went back to the Furong Palace.

As soon as she stepped into the Furong Palace, she heard Mu Guichen's slow voice: "What did you find?" ”

Looking at the chaise longue, Mu Guichen's clothes were half-drooping on his body, and his lazy appearance was a little tempting, which made Rong Xi's face blush and his heart jumped.

"Found this pearl hairpin near the Jiaofang Palace."

took out the pearl hairpin from his sleeve and shared it with him generously.

They are people in the same boat, and there is no need to hide it. Raising his eyebrows, Mu Guichen looked at her, waiting for her next step.
