"What's going on?" Boss Gu has a bad heart.

"We went to the small courtyard where they lived just now, the gate of the small courtyard was open, and Xu's mother was gone." Yuluan lowered her voice, for fear that Qiu Tang in the house would hear it.

"Yuchen, you go to Xu Sanye's mansion to find Huachen, and see if he can come out to help find Xu's mother." Boss Gu had a hint of foreboding in his heart.

"Yes." Yuchen left in response.

"Yuluan, this matter will be suppressed first, and you must not let Qiu Tang know." Boss Gu instructed uneasily.

"I understand." Yuluan arched his hand.

"Little Shunzi!" Zhang Wan leaned on the soft collapse, she already knew about Prince Qi's request to leave the Holy City, for this cold Prince Qi, Zhang Wan never saw through, and wanted to send Xiao Shunzi to investigate, but she didn't see Xiao Shunzi's people all day.

"Back to the Queen Mother, Xiao Shunzi doesn't know where he went, and I haven't seen him on an errand for the past two days." Qingxing heard a sound in the house and hurriedly pushed the door in. Since Zhang Wan became the queen mother, most of the time she didn't want anyone to wait by her side, she only stayed in the house to take care of the young Mu Lingchen, and all the servants were waiting outside the house.

"Find someone and go to his house." Zhang Wan was a little annoyed.

"Yes." Qing Xing left in response.

Zhang Wan coaxed Mu Lingchen who was lying beside her, secretly analyzing the forces of the current dynasty in her heart, and now although it was Mu Lingyi, the bloodline of the Qimu clan, ascended the throne and sat in the palace, Mu Lingyi's gradually revealed scheming made Zhang Wan's heart feel a little estranged. Yuechan has already left the palace to return to the Qimu clan under her own arrangement, and at this time, she is organizing soldiers and horses with Yue Shumei to occupy the various city-states that rule Dayou, and now she is the only one left in the palace to compete with Mu Lingyi.

"Queen Mother," Zhang Wan was pondering, Qingxing pushed the door and walked in, "Back to the Queen Mother, the person who went to find Xiao Shunzi is back." He also brought with him the people he had raised in his house. ”

"What are you doing with those people in the palace! What about the little Shunzi people? Zhang Wan was a little unhappy, she had always known that Xiao Shunzi had raised people outside, but she was dirty about this kind of thing, and she had always been reluctant to ask, and she didn't want her to just look for Xiao Shunzi today, but she brought these people into the palace.

"They said that after Xiao Shunzi picked up a Qinglou woman that day, they drove them out of the house, and they were not allowed to serve inside, seeing that the master did not want them to be around, they were also happy and comfortable, and they all sneaked away, but when they went back at night, they saw that the door was open, Xiao Shunzi and the Qinglou woman were gone, and the most terrible thing was that there was a big pool of blood on the ground in the house." Qing Xing synthesized the information she got and told it to Zhang Wan.

"He killed someone?" Zhang Wan sat up, her apricot eyes wide.

"These people say they don't know anything."

"......" Zhang Wan was silent for a moment, "cut out their tongues and throw them into mass graves." ”

"Yes." Qingxing led the order to close the door.

After listening to the noise outside, Qingxing pushed the door again and entered: "Queen Mother, that little Shunzi, are you still looking for it?" ”

"Find, live to see people, dead to see corpses!" Zhang Wan's eyes narrowed. Xiao Shunzi has participated in a lot of things, although Mu Lingyi has successfully ascended the throne, but Zhang Wan doesn't want to leave a little trouble.

"Holy Lord, according to the ancestral system, it's time for you to draft." Li Xusong served a bowl of ginseng soup.

"Those old ministers can't sit still, are they all anxious to be my old man?" Mu Lingyi sneered. Now almost all the cronies of the Qimu clan are in the court, and he doesn't want his harem to be like the previous dynasty, all kinds of eyeliner of the Qimu clan.

"......" Mu Lingyi's words made Li Xusong not know how to answer, and the inexplicable embarrassment made Li Xusong very uncomfortable.

"The women of the official family are not interesting, they are all wood that can't laugh, and they know every day that they can recite all kinds of ancestral teachings to me, and this kind of woman doesn't want it!" Mu Lingyi saw his least favorite appearance in Yin Chuman, who was married to his father, although he had a child with Yin Chuman, Mu Lingyi still didn't have a good impression of Yin Chuman.

"Holy Lord," Li Xusong leaned down in Mu Lingyi's ear and lowered his voice, "Holy Lord, do you want to go around Fengqi Pavilion?" ”

Mu Lingyi raised his eyes and looked Li Xusong up and down, when he was still the prince, Li Xusong had never said these words, and even prevented himself from going to Fengqi Pavilion, why did he actually encourage himself to go today? Mu Lingyi was very surprised.

"Shengshang, you were the prince before, according to the ancestral system, the prince can't go to Fireworks Willow Lane, but now you are a saint, the whole world is not the king's land, and there is no place where the saint can't go." Seeing Mu Lingyi's doubts, Li Xusong explained with a smile, "Besides, Fengqi Pavilion was originally a folk draft place set up by the ancestors for the adjustment of the harem, but because of the need to survive, the third- and fourth-class girls who made money were developed, and the first- and second-class girls in it were all prepared for the royal family." ”

"A first-class girl?" Mu Lingyi didn't know anything about the level of Fengqi Pavilion.

"The first- and second-class girls are all performers who don't sell themselves, and if they want to meet, they need to spend money in advance, and when they make an appointment, they can only listen to music through the curtain except for the saint, and they can't do anything else."

"And what if I go?" Mu Lingyi was obviously interested.

"If the saint goes up, you can choose the first- and second-class girls, and do whatever you want." Li Xusong almost laughed out loud. Making one's master happy is the most important thing you can do as a servant.

"So what are you waiting for?" Mu Lingyi couldn't wait to rush out.

"Wait a minute, Fengqi Pavilion hasn't opened its doors yet." Seeing that his master was so anxious, Li Xusong hurriedly stopped.

"Master," Qiu Tang found Boss Gu, "Did Mother Xu pick it up?" ”

"This ......" Boss Gu has been hiding from Qiu Tang for a day, he wants to hide from Qiu Tang, but he doesn't know how to lie.

"Since it's inconvenient for Master here, Qiu Tang should go back and take care of Madame." Seeing Boss Gu's embarrassment, Qiu Tang thought that Xiwang Mansion was full of men, and it was inconvenient to pick up Xu's mother.

"No, Qiu Tang, you wait, I've already let Yuluan and Yuchen go, but they haven't come back yet." Boss Gu didn't care if this kind of argument was tenable or not, he just thought that he could delay for a while.

"Okay then." Qiu Tang nodded and stopped asking about Xu's mother.

"I haven't eaten for a day, are I hungry? There is rice porridge in the kitchen, so let's drink a little bit. Boss Gu tried his best to divert the topic.

"Thank you, master." Qiu Tang did feel a little hungry, thanked him, and walked towards the kitchen.

"Master." As soon as Qiu Tang left on his front foot, Yuchen returned to Xiwang Mansion.

"How?" Boss Gu hurriedly pulled Yuchen into the room and asked in a low voice.

"I looked for Huachen for a day, but I didn't see any trace of Xu's mother, we also tried to find out about the little Shunzi's outer house, Huachen has sneaked in to find it, I'm afraid that it will be too long, and the master will come back and tell you first."

"Okay, just now Qiu Tang was still asking Mother Xu why she hadn't picked it up yet, alas, this child is very clever, I'm afraid I can't hide it." Boss Gu shook his head and his eyes were full of distress.

"Master, Senior Brother Huachen is here." Yuchen and Boss Gu were talking, and the little drama Suli interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Come in, please!" Boss Gu and Yuchen glanced at each other, and hurriedly got up and walked out the door.

Hua Chen pulled a carriage and stood in front of Xiwang Mansion.

"Here we are." Yuchen greeted casually.

"My master wants me to send you something." Hua Chen nodded, responding to the inquiry in Yuchen's eyes.

"Let's go to the backyard." Boss Gu understood Hua Chen's eyes and hinted that Hua Chen drove the carriage into the courtyard through the back door to avoid Qiu Tang.

Yuchen took Huachen to drive the carriage to the back door, Huachen was a little depressed, without saying a word, Yuchen was affected by him, and he was also a little uneasy in his heart. Finally arrived at the back door, Boss Gu opened the back door early and waited, and the carriage quietly entered the backyard of Xiwang Mansion. Lifting the curtain, Xu's mother lay straight inside, Yuchen took a step back in shock, and grabbed Hua Chen's hand: "What's the matter?" ”

Hua Chen put down the curtain and sighed: "Xiao Shunzi's outer house for some reason, there is no one left, there is a big pool of blood on the ground in the house, this pool of blood is still dripping out to the back, I followed the bloodstains and found a dry well in the backyard, and found the bodies of Xiao Shunzi and Xu's mother in the dry well." ”

After listening to Hua Chen's words, Yuchen and Boss Gu were silent for a long time.

"It should be that Xu's mother heard the conversation when Xiaoshunzi went to find Qiutang, and then secretly followed behind, seeing that Qiutang killed someone, Xu's mother in order to protect Qiutang and let the body be found later, so she dragged Xiaoshunzi's body to the wellhead and threw it down, it may be that her physical strength is not exhausted, or it may be that Xiaoshunzi is too heavy, in short, Xu's mother also planted it." Seeing that Yuchen and Boss Gu didn't speak, Hua Chen continued.

"Let me see Madame again." Qiu Tang's voice came from behind him, and the three of them were frightened.

"Qiu Tang ......" Yuchen stepped forward to stop Qiu Tang, but was stopped by Boss Gu.

Seeing that Boss Gu had no objection, Qiu Tang slowly stepped forward, lifted the curtain, and saw Mother Xu with withered grass and a bloodstained face. The tears slid down silently, and Qiu Tang felt as if a very important part had been pulled out of his body, painful, painful, and almost tearing Qiu Tang alive. After stumbling a few steps, Qiu Tang almost fell to the ground, Yuchen hurriedly held on, and Qiu Tang leaned on Yuchen's arms and cried loudly.

"Dream Mom." Li Xusong took Mu Lingyi to the door of Fengqi Pavilion, and the two of them were dressed in casual clothes. Li Xusong took out a sign from his waist and handed it to Meng Ling'er.

"Please!" Seeing the sign clearly, Meng Ling'er hurriedly invited the two into Fengqi Pavilion, called Qingyun in a row, ordered him to make tea and pour water, and went up to the second floor to gather the first- and second-class girls who were embroidering upstairs.

"Master, the girls are ready, please!" As he spoke, he led Mu Lingyi upstairs.

Mu Lingyi didn't squint, followed Meng Ling'er up to the second floor, and entered a slightly larger room, the fat powder in the room was fragrant, which was fascinating. Mu Lingyi sat down at the table and looked at Meng Ling'er: "Which of you girls sings the best song?" ”

"Master, I'll tell you the truth, these girls sing songs, it's a good one, but it's a pity that they can't sing now." Meng Ling'er looked regretful.

"Can't sing? Could it be that Chengdu is dumb? Mu Lingyi was displeased, and when he came out of the palace, he came to Fengqi Pavilion to have fun and listen to music, but when he came, he was told that he couldn't sing.

"Master, don't be angry, it's not that the girls are dumb, it's that they can't move the loudspeaker for a year......" Meng Ling'er's voice became smaller and smaller, she knew that the master in front of her was the new emperor who had just ascended the throne, but after all, it had not been a year yet.

"I was because of something." Mu Lingyi sneered, "Li Xusong, the proposed holy order, from now on, the holy order of the forbidden device will be canceled, and the new emperor will be enthroned, and the whole city will celebrate for a year!" Mu Lingyi seemed to be angry with his father, and he annulled the previous holy decree with one sentence.

"Miscellaneous family, let's do it." Li Xu bowed and left.

"Well, can you sing now?" Mu Lingyi glanced at Meng Ling'er.

"Yes, yes," Meng Ling'er had never seen such a formation, even if the emperor had come to Fengqi Pavilion before, he didn't want to show his identity, this one was good, not only did he show his identity, but he also issued a holy order in front of her and the girls, "What are you doing in a daze!" Take the piano! ”
