The eldest prince didn't blame Chu Qingli, and the eldest lady couldn't say anything more, so she could only immediately urge the subordinates in the mansion to hurry up and look for Shen Qiuyu.

After only the second prince and Chu Qingli and Fu Qinghe were left in the room, the second prince returned to his unserious appearance, "I said Princess Mu, why is it that you are indispensable every time this kind of lively scene?" ”

"Why should the second prince be so modest, isn't it the same for the second prince?" Chu Qingli was not afraid of his status as a prince, and he was unceremonious when he spoke to him.

However, as soon as Chu Qingli met the second prince, he always had to fight-for-tat and tease each other, and they were used to each other. The second prince smiled, and then asked seriously: "Miss Shen's disappearance really has nothing to do with you, right?" "This matter is not a joke, the emperor has wasted a lot of thought for this marriage, because of this marriage, the emperor is also ready to add the eldest prince as the prince of Qizhu after the marriage, and the prince is only one pearl apart, if something goes wrong at this time, the emperor will definitely be furious, and then the emperor does not want a truth, but a person who is angry, if the eldest lady insists that it is Chu Qingli at that time, I am afraid that the emperor will really blame her.

Chu Qingli saw that the second prince's expression was a little more serious, so he stopped joking, shook his head and replied seriously: "It really has nothing to do with me, but I think Shen Qiuyu must not have left the Xuanguo Mansion yet." ”

"Then hurry up and find it, don't cover it in time." The second prince shook the folding fan and turned around and walked out of the door. Chu Qingli also followed the second prince and walked out.

"Where do you think Miss Shen will hide?" The second prince walked in front, shook the folding fan gently, and asked Chu Qingli behind him without looking back. Chu Qingli couldn't be sure, but she wanted to go back to Shen Qiuyu's room first, maybe she would find clues inside.

Chu Qingli shook his head, and thought that the second prince couldn't see it at all when he walked in front, so he immediately said loudly: "Let's go back to Shen Qiuyu's room first." ”

Because Chu Qingli had been here once before, he took the second prince to Shen Qiuyu's room. Chu Qingli walked in, and the situation inside was the same as when she left, except that Shen Qiuyu was missing. It should be that the people in the mansion were busy looking for Shen Qiuyu, so they didn't have time to clean up the mess on the ground.

"Hey, this is where the bride gets married?" The second prince was also shocked by this messy scene, and habitually opened his mouth sarcastically.

Chu Qingli didn't pay attention to him at all, and looked carefully at the furnishings in the room. It's the same as before, but something seems wrong.

"Qinghe, do you think there's anything wrong with this room?" Chu Qingli was still just a feeling, and he couldn't assert that Fu Qinghe came in with her just now, maybe Fu Qinghe would notice something.

Fu Qinghe's observation was naturally not as careful as Chu Qingli's, she felt that everything here was exactly the same as it was then, and there was nothing strange about it.

Seeing Chu Qingli asking like this, the second prince couldn't help but be curious, "What did you find?" ”

Chu Qingli frowned, pursed his lips and did not speak. She was trying to figure out what was different from before. In the end, Chu Qingli locked his gaze on the wooden box on the ground. She remembered that when she came in, the box had been placed behind the dresser, but now it was in the corner of the room, as if she was afraid of being discovered.

Chu Qingli walked towards the box, only to find that there was a lock on the box. If it was only Shen Qiuyu alone, it should not be possible to hide in it, but this strange feeling was too strong, so Chu Qingli had to see it with his own eyes to rest assured. Chu Qingli looked around, looking for the key to the box.

"What the hell are you looking for?" The second prince saw that Chu Qingli didn't say a word, but his expression was strange, although Chu Qingli hadn't answered his words before, he still couldn't help but ask again.

Chu Qingli casually pointed to the lock on the box, "I'm looking for the key to this lock." ”

"You suspect that Miss Shen is hiding in the box, but there is a lock on the box, how did she hide in it?" Obviously, the second prince didn't believe Chu Qingli's speculation.

Chu Qingli didn't bother to explain to the second prince, "If you are not inside, you will know if you open it." Chu Qingli was still rummaging around on the dresser, but he still didn't find the key.

It just so happened that the maid who was waiting beside Shen Qiuyu walked in, looking at Chu Qingli's actions, she was a little unhappy in her heart, and her voice unconsciously raised a few points, "What is the princess doing?" ”

Chu Qing didn't look up and still rummaged through the boxes and cabinets looking for the key, "Can't you see it?" I'm helping you find your young lady. ”

"The slaves and maids in the room have all been searched, and the young lady is not inside, so the princess should please go out." Seeing Chu Qingli so presumptuous in Shen Qiuyu's room, as Shen Qiuyu's personal maid, he was naturally unhappy in his heart.

Chu Qingli straightened up and stopped looking, but turned his head to look at the maid and asked, "Do you know where the key on the box is?" ”

Chu Qingli didn't know if she was wrong, when she pointed to the box, the maid's expression obviously flashed a trace of panic, which made Chu Qing even more suspicious if it was the maid in front of her who helped Shen Qiuyu hide.

"Slave...... The slave did not know where the key to the chest was. The maid shook her head to indicate that she didn't know.

Chu Qingli didn't embarrass her, but said to her: "Then who keeps the key to this box, you go and find him for me, I will open this box and take a look." ”

"Princess, it's impossible for our young lady to hide in that box." The maid did not do what Chu Qingli wanted, but tried to dispel Chu Qingli's idea of checking the box.

The more this maid said this, the more Chu Qingli felt that she was a little strange. "Seeing that the auspicious time is coming, if you delay it like this and miss the auspicious time, you can't afford to blame it."

"Don't do what the princess wants." The second prince obviously also sensed that something was wrong with this maid, and ordered.

The maid saw that the second prince had spoken, although she was unhappy in her heart, she didn't dare to be disobedient, the second prince could only take out the key from her waist, Chu Qingli's eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth showed a hint of mockery, "Didn't you just say that the key is not with you?" ”

"The slave was afraid that the princess would mess up the room, so she lied, and asked the princess not to blame." The guy lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Chu Qingli's face.

Chu Qing smiled clearly, took the key from her hand, walked straight to the box, inserted the key into the lock hole, and opened the box.
