For some reason, the news that three people died in a row within one day of leaving the mansion actually reached the ears of Shen Fan in the capital. After receiving the will of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Yuhuan, Shen Fan stepped forward to temporarily suppress this matter, so as not to spread this matter to the ears of others, especially the emperor. But despite this, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and this matter still reached the ears of Princess Xiao Yunyi of Su'an.

In Jinci Palace, Princess Su'an sat in front of the dressing mirror and looked straight at herself in the mirror, with a smile on her face, looking a little crazy. There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and after a report, a palace maid in the Jinci Palace pushed open the door and walked in, it was Xiao Nai.

Xiao Nai: "Princess, three people died in a row in one day after leaving the mansion in Xin'an County, and Shen Fan seems to have obtained the will of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and put this matter down for the time being."

Xiao Yunyi: "Who died?"

Xiao Nai: "The current head of the family is away from Changyun, his daughter is from Yulan, and his niece is from Chuqian."

Xiao Yunyi: "Oh? How did he die? Have you found out? ”

Xiao Nai: "It's clear, it's because of his father's death from Changfeng, and because he was driven out of the mansion by Changyun because of his debauchery, and he hated everyone in the mansion, so he killed the two of them." After the deed was fulfilled, he decided to cut himself. ”

Xiao Yunyi was silent for a moment and said, "What about the real reason?"

Xiao Nai was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and replied, "I don't know what the other reasons are."

Xiao Yunyi sighed and said, "I hate so many people from Lifu, why did you kill Li Changyun and Li Yulan but didn't kill Qiao Ze?"

Xiao Nai exclaimed: "Princess! How do you know there's such a person as Joze?! The slave has never mentioned this man to you! ”

Xiao Yunyi's face did not change and said: "There are some things that should be known, and you will naturally know them."

Although Xiao Nai was still puzzled, he didn't say anything, just stood there silently and listened to Xiao Yunyi's words.

Xiao Yunyi continued: "The person is indeed killed by Chu Qian, and this is also a little greater than Chu Qian's ability. As a rich lady, she was able to enter the mansion alone without an accomplice, and killed two people in a row. The servants who left the house seemed to be just eating idle meals. ”

Xiao Nai listened to Xiao Yunyi's words and pondered for a while, and suddenly smiled a little brightly: "Princess, you are really amazing, you can think of this!"

Xiao Yunyi also smiled: "You are also very smart, and I am afraid that only you can understand what I say."

Xiao Nai: "Does the princess have any instructions?"

Xiao Yunyi: "No need, I will think of it, and naturally others will think of it." Since Xiao Yuhuan took the trouble to suppress this matter, he gave him a face and did not make a noise. This large group of people is still of great use to him, and he will not do anything to his detriment now. Just wait and see what happens. ”

"Yes." Xiao Nai bowed and walked out of Jinci Palace. Xiao Yunyi sat in front of the mirror wearing a familiar veil and looked at herself carefully, stretched out her right hand and gently stroked her cheek through the veil. Although I couldn't see the actual expression, I could feel her faint smile through the veil.

Xuan Zhuyi sat at the table and said restlessly, "Do we still check this matter?"

Mu Zhixi came over and sat in front of Xuan Zhuyi and said, "Check! How can you not check? Aren't you scared, brother? ”

Xuan Zhuyi sighed and poured a cup of tea alone: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that this case has now been finalized by the government, what else can a few of us do?"

Mu Zhixi: "We can still do something to represent justice." Although everything is a foregone conclusion now, it would be good if the truth could be clarified. Although I don't believe in Li Chuqian, I don't want to wronged her plainly. ”

Shang Ling: "In that case, now we can only go to Qiao Ze."

Ouyang Ruolin: "But why would Qiao Ze tell us the truth?" Maybe even he is still confused? ”

Mu Zhixi: "But he didn't marry Li Yulan voluntarily, and the person he used to like was not Li Yulan, but Chu Qian." With that alone, we can know something. As for whether he is willing to say or not, on the one hand in him, and on the other hand in us. ”

Ouyang Ruolin nodded understandingly, and the others also acquiesced, and everyone set off for the house after lunch. At this time, the departure house was wrapped in white cloth, and it was completely devoid of the style and demeanor when everyone first saw it. After entering the mansion, everyone also saw Qiao Ze as they wished, and as expected, Qiao Ze was the head of the family who had left the mansion now. At this time, Qiao Ze was also wearing linen and filial piety, with a sad face on his face, but no matter how Mu Jinggong looked at it, he felt that there was an indescribable strange expression on his face, and even said that this expression was a little different from many funeral etiquette. It's just that if she is asked to say exactly what the problem is, she can't say, it's just a hazy feeling. Qiao Ze was already silent, counting Chu Qian, three people died in a day in a day when he left the mansion, and the burden of the head of the house naturally fell on him, and he became even more silent.

Xuan Zhuyi was the first to speak: "Ling Zun and Ling Yan still hope that you will mourn when they die suddenly, and don't be overly sad and hurt your body." This family business is still supported by you. ”

Qiao Ze replied politely: "Lord Lao is worried about the grass people, and the grass people should do their best to maintain the family business of leaving the house, live up to the hard work of the father-in-law, and let the lady feel at ease."

Xuan Zhuyi: "It's naturally good that Qiao Gongzi can think like this, and I also believe that everything will be fine."

Qiao Ze: "Thanks to Lord Shi, I hope everything will be fine."

Xuan Zhuyi took a sip of tea and changed the subject: "I wonder if I can ask Qiao Gongzi about something?"

Qiao Ze: "My lord, but it doesn't matter, if there is a need for help, the grass people will do their best to help."

Xuan Zhuyi: "I don't know if Gongzi Qiao can leave Chu Qian?" When he said this, Mu Zhixi and Mu Jinggong stared at Qiao Ze. The two of them saw a smile and sadness on Qiao Ze's face, and then there was nothing. Mu Zhixi couldn't help frowning, why did this Qiao Ze feel weird? Mu Jinggong also felt this way, he felt very strange from the first time he saw him, and now he feels even more so. Xuan Zhuyi seems to have encountered a bottleneck in a casual chat, and he doesn't know what to do with this message next. It was also at this moment that Shang Ling, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke: "I don't know what the relationship between Gongzi Qiao and Miss Lichuqian is." Although this is straightforward, such a straightforward approach is also quite effective, and it also solves Xuan Zhuyi's dilemma.
