It can only be like this now, Xilingyue nodded silently, forcing herself to shake off her mixed thoughts, and finally remembered what she was going to say to Li Chengxuan. She couldn't help but sit up straight, and said eagerly: "By the way, Lord Wang, I've been looking for you all these days." ”

Li Chengxuan looked at her and waited for the following.

"In the past few days, when I was recuperating from my injuries, I recalled the scene before the death of Shopkeeper Liu, and I wanted to tell you some doubts." Xiling Moon Road.

"You say, I'll listen." Li Chengxuan sat down across from her.

Xi Lingyue recalled the situation before he was assassinated that day: "Do you still remember how he answered before Shopkeeper Liu died, when we forced him to ask about His Royal Highness and the Pavilion Master?" ”

"Remember," Li Chengxuan replied calmly, "he said that Li Qi had been sending letters to a certain place, and he had intermittently said my cousin, trying to identify me before he died." ”

At that time, there were only four people in the room: Xilingyue, Li Chengxuan, Bai Juyi, and Zheng Wanniang, and the shopkeeper Liu was killed by the assassin halfway through his finger, combined with what he said before he died, he seemed to be trying to identify Li Chengxuan.

And this is exactly what Xiling Yue couldn't figure out: "Don't you think it's strange, prince?" Shopkeeper Liu first admitted that Mrs. Gao deliberately set up a situation in front of you to kill Li Heng, wanting to attract the attention of the imperial court to Li Qi. But then he identified you

Li Qi colluded, isn't this inconsistent? ”

"Also, even if he wants to identify you, he should say 'Fu Wang', how can he call out your words? Even if you and I are so familiar, I don't dare to shout. ”

Li Chengxuan's original name was "Li Hu", and today's Shengshang's original name is "Li Chun", and the brothers are all from the water character. But after the saint ascended the throne, he changed his name to "pure", and according to the ancestral system, his siblings also changed his name one after another, and Li Chengxuan changed it to "Li Juan". Generally speaking, courtiers and common people use "Fu Wang" to call Li Chengxuan, the elders of the clan call him by his name, and the peers are called by the word "Chengxuan" to express affection and respect.

This is a ritual handed down by our ancestors, which has been used for thousands of years, and no one will ever make a mistake in fame. Therefore, even if Shopkeeper Liu really wants to identify Li Chengxuan, he should also call him "King Fu", if he is disrespectful, he should directly call his name "Li Xuan" or even "Li Hu", how can he call out his table word "Chengxuan"? Xiling Yue really couldn't figure it out.

"You're right. Maybe Liu Dong wants to identify others, the pronunciation is close, you and I have heard it wrong. Li Chengxuan didn't take this matter to heart.

"But if he is not talking about you, why is he pointing at you?" Xilingyue remembered that the shopkeeper Liu raised his hand before he died, which was obviously aimed at someone in the house.

The more she thought about it, the more she didn't understand: "And we have discussed, that 'Your Highness' must be a member of the clan, and he has a heart of disobedience." If that's the case, it's not surprising that he wants to frame you, after all, you are the holy brother's own brother. Lord Wang, think about it, who else in the clan has a name close to the pronunciation of the word 'Cheng Xuan'? ”

She analyzed for a long time, and saw that Li Chengxuan had been silent, and added: "Oh, yes, yes, it's not just the name, maybe it's the title, the table word, and the nickname are close." ”

"I've checked," Li Chengxuan's expression was calm, "All the children of the clan, the courtiers in power, and the envoys of the festival, including their children and grandchildren, have names, titles, table characters, milk names, nicknames, and even the names of official positions, and none of them are close to 'Cheng Xuan'." ”

Xiling Yue was very surprised, and couldn't help but say to herself: "Could it be that I guessed wrong again?" ”

When she spoke, there was a trace of confusion, a trace of seriousness, a hint of suspicion, and a hint of unconvinced stubbornness, her delicate eyebrows were tightly locked, her chin was supported with one hand, and her eyes were unusually bright on her pale and thin cheeks.

Li Chengxuan suddenly felt that his heart was very heavy, so heavy that he couldn't look directly at her serious appearance, so he turned his face away and said lightly: "Okay, your injury has not healed, don't bother for the time being." ”

Xiling Yue was very anxious: "Lord Wang, why are you so calm?" The person behind the scenes wants to harm you, and he also endangers Datang Sheji! ”

"This matter needs to be considered in the long run." Li Chengxuan looked out the window, "Moreover, we are not helpless. ”

"Do you have a way?" Xiling Yue immediately cheered up.

"Arrest Li Qi and direct torture."

Xilingyue patted her forehead: "That's right, why didn't I think of it!" ”

The day after the two mentioned the matter, news came out from the DPRK that the envoy sent by the Holy Lord had just arrived in Zhenhai and was detained by Li Qi in the local area. On the same day, Pei Xingli's secret letter was also sent to Li Chengxuan, saying that Li Qi had begun to secretly recruit troops and was about to move.

On the day he received the secret letter, Li Chengxuan entered the palace, and did not return for the next two days, and was kept in the palace by the saint.

Xilingyue has been thinking about Li Qi's various secrets - "His Royal Highness" and "Pavilion Master", as well as Shopkeeper Liu's identification of Li Chengxuan before his death. The more she thought about it, the more clueless she became, and she couldn't help but feel anxious, tossing and turning for two nights, and the more haggard she looked.

On the morning of the third day, Xiao Yi came to check her pulse as usual, and personally stared at her to take medicine. Before she could swallow a bowl of soup and medicine, she heard the housekeeper report that Li Chengxuan had returned from the palace and took Qin Se, the county lord of Qizhou.

Moreover, Qin Se named him to see Xilingyue and Xiao Yi. Although the brother and sister were surprised, they did not slack off and went to the front hall to meet guests. Before the two of them stepped into the threshold, they saw Li Chengxuan and Qin Se standing side by side in the center of the main hall from a distance, a python robe and jade belt, and a jade tree in the wind; A fairy robe fluttering, plump and beautiful, just like a pair of beautiful people.

At the same time, Li Chengxuan also saw the two people outside the door, Xiao Yi and Xi Lingyue walking side by side, stepping up the steps, the former carefully supporting the latter, unabashedly caring. One of them is white-clothed and the other is a clear water hibiscus, and they are also very right.

Even Qin Se sighed in a low voice: "What a pair of childhood sweethearts, the Ziqing Li family is willing to be dismantled." ”

Li Chengxuan didn't know how to say anything when he heard this, and at this time, Xiao Yi and Xilingyue had already walked into the front hall and saluted him one after another. Then, both of them saw their eyes fall on Qin Se.

On the day when the eldest princess came to recognize her relatives, both of them had seen Qin Se, so Li Chengxuan only gave a brief introduction, and the four of them sat down and talked about business.

Xiao Yi asked first: "I don't know what the county lord has to summon the grass brothers and sisters, what is his order?" ”

Qin Se was not in a hurry to explain his intentions, and first politely said: "The day before yesterday, I came to take over the Birth Gang, and I accidentally saw the matter of the eldest princess and the lady of Xiling, out of concern, I went to visit the eldest princess yesterday." Only then did I know that the two of them were the descendants of Xichuan Jinxiuzhuang! ”

Xiao Yi had to politely reply: "The housesister had a gaffe the day before yesterday, which made the county lord laugh." ”

"Where, the brocade of Guizhuang has always been loved by the palace, and my clothes today are made of Guizhuang's clothing."
