Facing the grief-stricken Wang Jia, Chen Pingwu sighed softly, his eyes full of helplessness.

"The king of Pingyi has been honored and disgraced in his life, and it is already a good ending like this in the end."

He knew in his heart that if the king of Pingyi was really alive, these charges would not have been solved by his death.

Even if Feng Yewu really spared him from dying, what awaited him after returning to Beijing would be endless torture and torture.

The Criminal Department and Dali Temple took turns to interrogate, and those officials who were polite to Wang Changgeng in the past, which one didn't want to be crazy about picking himself up.

I'm afraid that in the end, the wall will fall down and everyone will push it, and even Wang Jia will be implicated.

Living in front of people, Wang Changgeng thinks of Wang Jia's situation from his own dignity or with Wang Jia's situation.

Only when he dies can Feng Yewu not be held accountable, and he can also seal the mouths of many courtiers behind him.

It's just that Wang Jia won't understand all this, at least not now.

Wang Jia looked at Chen Pingwu on the side, and couldn't help but feel a little more dependent in his heart.

The two have experienced life and death, and that delicate relationship has now become the only force to support her to live.

Chen Pingwu felt Wang Jia's gaze, and out of concern, he gently hugged Wang Jia, but he didn't know that this emotion had surpassed the family dependence he understood in Wang Jia's heart under such a move at this moment.

"Report!"

Suddenly, an officer and soldier came running with a panicked expression.

Feng Yewu frowned and asked softly.

"What happened?"

The officers and soldiers bowed their heads and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Ping... The princess committed suicide by poisoning herself in the room. ”

Another one died?

Feng Yewu subconsciously glanced at Wang Jia on the side, for fear that this little girl who had not been deeply involved in the world would completely collapse after hearing the news of the death of her relatives one after another.

Only this time, after Wang Jia heard the words of the officer and soldier, his eyes only dimmed slightly, and he did not react violently.

"Got it, let's bury the princess and King Pingyi together."

After Feng Yewu replied softly, he waved his hand at the officers and soldiers.

The princess is not Wang Jia's biological mother after all, although the two get along fairly well on weekdays, but it is all for the sake of Wang Changgeng's face, Wang Jia and this princess do not have too deep feelings.

Chen Pingwu was also a little worried that Wang Jia was sad, but under observation, he found that there was some doubt on her face, and she couldn't help but ask softly.

"Jia'er? What happened to you? The princess is sincere in her love for the king of Pingyi, and if she is martyred, you should not be too sad. ”

When Wang Jia heard Chen Pingwu's comfort, there was a slight warmth in her heart, and the corners of her mouth pulled up a smile with difficulty, but it looked even more poignant.

"Brother Wu don't worry, it's just that Jia'er has some doubts."

The conversation between the two was naturally heard by Feng Yewu and Lu Jue, puzzled? When Wang Jia expressed doubts about the death of the princess, several people's attention was focused.

"Miss Wang, could it be that the princess doesn't have that deep feelings for your father?"

Lu Jue asked suspiciously.

Wang Jia was suddenly a little cramped by everyone's attention, but in the face of Lu Jue's inquiry, it was obvious that everyone was waiting for her answer.

Wang Jia sighed softly, shook his head slightly, and then said.

"Jia'er doesn't have much contact with the princess on weekdays, and her feelings for my father are sincere."

Wang Jia's eyes hesitated, after all, he just said casually to Chen Pingwu.

"Why is the girl confused?"

Lu Jue asked, his eyes were blazing, and Wang Jia, who was watching, became even more flustered.

"Enough! King Pingyi just died, Jia'er was uncertain and said casually, why should Lu Gongzi be so aggressive. ”

Since Chen Pingwu experienced that life and death, he has changed his previous elegance and peace.

When he felt that Wang Jia beside him was a little scared when he was asked by Lu Jue like this, he hurriedly blocked in front of Wang Jia, looked at Lu Jue and said angrily.

Lu Jue was scolded by Chen Pingwu like this, and he suddenly regretted it in his heart, after all, Wang Jia was also a life-saving grace for him and Feng Yewu, and he really shouldn't have acted just now.

Recently, Lu Jue has also been very strange, since he experienced several battles with Yang Guang, his mood has become more and more impetuous.

Even when Fang had just fought against the Dongyi people, the last sword slid through the necks of several people and was crisp and neat, and there seemed to be no emotion at all.

Lu Jue silently returned to Feng Yewu's back, stood quietly, and fell into deep thought alone.

"Don't do that."

Wang Jia looked at Chen Pingwu who was blocking in front of her, and the sense of security under the tall back made her feel that most of Fang Cai's sadness had dissipated.

So Wang Jia hurriedly gently pulled the corner of Chen Pingwu's clothes, signaling that he didn't have to be like this, after all, Lu Jue was not a bad person in her impression.

"It's okay, it's not too early, you're still injured, let's go back, you also have to rest early."

Chen Pingwu felt the tugging of the corners of his clothes behind him, turned his head and said warmly.

Wang Jia nodded lightly, and accompanied by Chen Pingwu, he asked Feng Yewu for instructions to retire.

After the two walked out of the Pingyi Palace, Wang Jia said softly.

"Brother Wu, Lu Gongzi is not a bad person, Jia'er is indeed a little confused, maybe I think too much."

Hearing a slight self-blame in Wang Jia's words, Chen Pingwu's figure walking in front paused slightly, turned around and looked around, and then asked softly.

"Jia'er, you just think there's something wrong."

Wang Jia was stunned when Chen Pingwu asked him this, he originally thought that it was in the past, but he didn't want Chen Pingwu to mention it again.

She didn't pay much attention, just lowered her gaze slightly, and said after thinking for a moment.

"Although Jia'er doesn't have much contact with the princess, she always feels that she shouldn't be the kind of person who will easily commit suicide."

On weekdays, the princess's various behaviors, words and voices should be the kind of person who cherishes herself very much, and suddenly the officers and soldiers came and said that she committed suicide by taking poison.

At first, Wang Jia was a little lost, after all, there were not many people who were familiar with him, and his father had passed away, and now another one has gone.

But after the loss, the more Wang Jia thought about it, the more wrong it became.

That's when Fang Cai's doubts came.

Chen Pingwu heard Wang Jia's words, didn't say anything, and after his eyes flickered, he said to Wang Jia with a smile on his face.

"I don't want to do that, I'll send you to the inn to rest early."

Seeing Chen Pingwu's smile, Wang Jia was a little shy, nodded slightly, and continued to follow Chen Pingwu back.

Take poison?

Under Chen Pingwu's seemingly innocent smile, he pondered softly in his heart, as if he had another guess.

... ...

And in the Pingyi Palace, everyone else was busy searching, and the huge Pingyi Palace, trying to search for a while, was obviously a little difficult.

Feng Yewu looked at Chen Pingwu and Wang Jia who were leaving, sighed softly, and turned to look at Lu Jue.

"What's wrong with you?"

Feng Yewu and Lu Jue have been together for a long time, and after Yanwu Town confessed their hearts to each other, they could clearly feel Lu Jue's, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else around, Feng Yewu asked softly, his eyes were full of concern.
