The two looked at each other and smiled, still tacitly understanding.

The sun is setting, and it is beautiful!

Some people rejoice, and naturally some people are sad.

Nangong Ling, no, it should be Lihan, exposed and arrested, the most panicked person is the right minister Situ Ao.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty, I didn't realize the identity of this Lihan, the old minister is guilty." Situ Ao was old, knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic, and then changed the direction and pleaded guilty at Nangong Shuihua, "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's all the fault of the old minister, you almost suffered an accident, the minister deserves to die, the minister deserves to die." Situ Ao snorted and cried, acting like that, it seemed that he was really deceived by Lihan and had no idea about it.

Situ Ao was left by the emperor to Nangong Chen, he was a veteran of the two dynasties, and he was Nangong Chen's mentor, so Nangong Chen naturally would not doubt his loyalty. "Right Minister, please get up. I believe that this matter has nothing to do with you. ”

Nangong Chen said so, but Situ Ao was not at ease, how did he treat Lihan over the years, he knew in his heart that it was light to say that he was ruthless. He was worried, what if Lihan wanted to take revenge on him and give everything up?

If you want to keep him, keep the Prime Minister's Mansion, and keep Shaoyun, Lihan must die!

"Daddy! Father! Shaoyun staggered in. He was knocked unconscious by the people arranged by Lihan before, and he slept until he just woke up, only to know that the sky had changed outside. "Dad, you should quickly find a way to save Han'er, if you don't save Han'er, you will die."

Shaoyun knew that Situ Ao didn't like Han'er, he had already made a plan, if his father didn't save him, he would be forced to die. But Situ Ao's attitude greatly exceeded his expectations, "Shaoyun, don't worry, Lihan is also my child, I will definitely find a way to save him." ”

"Dad, are you serious?" Shaoyun is unbelievable.

"How do you talk, you kid. The previous incident was a matter between fathers and adults, and the children were innocent after all. Besides, if Lihan wasn't for me, he wouldn't have taken the risk of pretending to be the prince. ”

Shaoyun was so excited that he burst into tears, after so many years, his father finally figured out how happy he would be if Han'er could hear it.

"That's it, Shaoyun, you go and see him first and let him rest assured."

Well, Shaoyun was so excited that he didn't know that this was Situ Ao's conspiracy.

"Han'er, you know what? Father, he finally figured it out. He doesn't blame you anymore, he says you're his son and let you wait for him to save you. ”

"You must hold on, wait for your father."

"Young master, don't. will be discovered. The torture wounds on Lihan's body were deep and visible, and Shaoyun wanted to help him with medicine, but he was also stopped by Lihan. Shaoyun came in to see him, he had already taken a huge risk, and if someone sent a letter, he would inevitably implicate the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Lihan has been smiling faintly, and his posture has not even changed. Just when Shaoyun's words are comforting himself. I hated it for so many years, how could I easily forget it.

Shaoyun was distressed, and hurriedly pulled the food box next to him, "Han'er, look, this is what my father personally ordered the kitchen to make." He said you were cute and ate this when you were a kid. "The delicate osmanthus cake, crystal clear, looks very appetizing.

Lihan thought that he had become numb after so many years, and he no longer wanted anything. The only bit of longing was cruelly pressed firmly in his heart, but looking at the pastries he was once extremely familiar with, Li Han felt a little touched in a corner of his heart.

He still remembers that when he was a child, he always pestered his mother to eat osmanthus cake, and his mother was not allowed to eat more, but his father always hugged him with a doting face, put it in his solid chest, and said, "Han'er can eat as much as he wants, and his father can afford it, isn't it!" He sat on his father's lap and looked at his mother proudly, eating all over his mouth.

That time was probably his happiest moment.

Scarred fingers, tentatively reaching for the plate of delicate pastries. But like a child who is afraid of losing again, he does not dare to touch the warmth.

Shaoyun saw Lihan's hesitation, picked up two osmanthus cakes, one was stuffed into Lihan's hand, and the other was stuffed into his mouth, "Eat quickly, my brother also likes osmanthus cakes, if you don't eat it again, my brother will give it to you." ”

Li Han looked at the encouragement in Shaoyun's eyes, and tentatively stretched the osmanthus cake to his mouth.

Suddenly, Shaoyun's pupils tightened. A smear of black blood remained at the corner of his mouth. Half a piece of osmanthus cake also fell off from his hand.

"Young master! Young Lord! Li Han couldn't care about his body, crawled over in a panic, and hugged Shaoyun's gradually paralyzed body.

"Osmanthus cake, don't eat it, don't eat it!" Shaoyun struggled to say the last sentence, looking at Lihan's eyes full of reluctance, he thought that his father had really figured it out and wanted to forgive his younger brother. But when the Grim Reaper grabbed his throat, he knew that everything was just his father's design, and his father wanted Han'er to die. "Don't hate your father!" I wanted to touch my brother's face, but in the end I hung down weakly and closed my eyes without doing anything.

"Brother!! Lihan shouted hoarsely, but this brother, Shaoyun didn't hear it until he died.

It's too late to grieve, you have to deal with Shaoyun's body, otherwise it will be easy to set fire to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Hide that plate of osmanthus cake in the hole in the wall.

Hot tears, drop by drop, slipped down his face. Lihan didn't know if he was sad for himself or sad for Shaoyun. Lihan's internal force was sealed, and he forcibly retrograde the meridians, and the tendons and veins were seriously injured, and he lifted a palm and hit Shaoyun's body hard.

"Ahh

A cry of pathos drew the jailer over.

"What's going on? What's going on? ”

Shaoyun was slapped by Lihan and flew out, like a kite with a broken string, until it hit the wall before the butterfly fell. And the "murderer" Lihan, as if his soul had been drained, froze in place, tears streaming down his face,

"Quick, go and inform your lordship." The squire of the Criminal Department hurried over and brought out Situ Shaoyun's body in horror.

Take a good look into the prison, how can you find out someone's life.

How can he explain this to the emperor, how can he explain to the right minister.

"Master, master, no! Young master, young master is dead. ”

The wolf in his hand broke off without a sound. "What did you say?"

"Young master, young master, he's dead. was beaten to death by Lihan. ”

When Ruoxi and Luo Shuihua rushed over when they heard the news, Situ Shaoyun's body had already been taken away by Situ Ao.

"Didn't you say that no one should see him without the will of God? How did Situ Shaoyun come back? ”

Under Nangong Shuihua's questioning, the squire couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead. "Your Royal Highness, this Lihan was sent to the palace by the right minister that day, and he had a very good relationship with Young Master Situ, this Young Master Situ just wanted to ask him, why did he deceive the Holy Master?"

"You also know that this Lihan has been refusing to speak, Chen, Chen thought that maybe Young Master Situ could influence him, so he ......"

"Where's Lihan?"

"It's in, it's inside." Because Lihan suddenly went crazy and killed someone, the waiter of the criminal department was worried that something was going wrong, so he simply shackled the person to the wall.

"Why did you kill him?" Ruoxi asked.

There was no trace of waves in Lihan's eyes, and the whole person seemed to be dead, leaving only a shell and still walking dead. "Kill me." The hoarse voice kept repeating a sentence over and over again. Damn it's his, that plate of osmanthus cake was originally prepared for him, why did it be my brother who died? It's all his fault, if she had killed herself earlier, there wouldn't have been these things.

Now, he doesn't want anything but death. But his hands and feet were bound, and he couldn't even beg for death.

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Shui Hua glanced at Ruoxi and left.

"What do you think?" Shui Hua took the initiative to ask.

"There are a lot of doubts."

Yes, Shui Hua's idea is the same as Ruoxi's. Situ Ao burst into tears that day, dispelling Nangong Chen's suspicions, but not Shui Hua's doubts. The theft of his jade pendant was deliberately designed by someone, and there was absolutely no way to do it with the power of Lihan alone. Moreover, the person who came into contact with Gu Yunping at that time was obviously a person with a prominent status, and Lihan did not meet this condition. Behind him, there must be someone else. And Situ Ao is the most suspicious.

Coupled with Situ Shaoyun's death, it is also quite strange. Let's not talk about it, why did Situ Shaoyun suddenly visit the prison, just looking at Lihan's bent desire to die, it doesn't look like the reaction after suddenly going crazy and killing people.

The two of them decided to go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to take a look at Situ Shaoyun's body, and maybe they could find something.

The right minister's mansion was already full of mourning flags, and before they entered the door, the two of them heard Situ Ao's cry.

"My son, what do you say to go, the white-haired man sends the black-haired man, what do you want my father to do." Situ Ao had two sons, and he recognized only this one, who lost his son in his later years, in anyone's opinion, they were all miserable.

"Right Minister, please mourn."

Situ Ao seemed to be old for a moment, and returned the salute to the two of them tremblingly, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, thank you General Ling." ”

"The deceased is gone, please take care." As soon as Ruoxi's words came out, Situ Ao cried even more sadly.

"Your Highness, my son wants to share his worries for the Holy and His Highness, and I want to think that Lihan can remember the love of having a fellowship with him and tell the reason. But you don't want to be poisoned like this, you must be the master of the old minister. Lao Chen is such a son, if he says no, he will be gone. You must call the shots for the old minister and kill that traitor. ”

Situ Ao's grief is not fake, he wept blood, it was really sad for those who saw it, and wept for those who heard it.

Shui Hua was still trying to find out the truth, and just wanted to ask if he could open the coffin for an autopsy, but he was stopped by Ruoxi and signaled him not to say anything.

"Why did you stop me just now, didn't you say that you came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find out?" Out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shui Hua asked puzzled.

"You've just come back, and your foundation isn't yet secure. The right prime minister has gone through two dynasties, and many people in the court are his protégés, and it is not good for you to have a stiff with him at the moment. Moreover, when he lost his son in his later years, his grief was not faked, and if you want to open the coffin, he may not agree. If you force each other now, it will be bad for your reputation. ”

Shui Hua didn't expect this, but there are a lot of doubts about this matter, don't you check it?

"You and I are both excellent people, it shouldn't be difficult to enter and exit the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?" Ruoxi smiled slyly, Shui Hua immediately understood, the bright one can't work, you can come to the dark. Not during the day, they can visit the Prime Minister's Mansion at night.

Nangong Shuihua smiled knowingly, this Ling Ruoxi is really a ghost elf.
