Chapter 255: Acting too much

Li Chengxuan saw that she was depressed, and asked lightly: "Did you just enjoy it?" ”

Xiling Yue came back to her senses and was shocked into a cold sweat when she thought of this. The two ingots of gold just fell out, and she was afraid that Li Qi would see the clue before she made this decision, firstly, to divert Li Qi's attention, and secondly, to find a reason to go out and dispose of the gold, so as to prevent Li Qi from coming to her again afterwards.

Now that I think about it, it was about Li Qi's old eyes that were dizzy, and the candles in the house were dim, and he didn't see any words engraved on the gold at all, otherwise she would not have escaped this fate. The more Xiling Yue thought about it, the more fortunate she became,

looked at Li Chengxuan carefully, and saw that there was no red palm mark on his face, so he rubbed his hands embarrassedly: "Lord Wang, I didn't mean it...... You get the idea. ”

Li Chengxuan commented coldly: "It's too much." ”

Xilingyue didn't feel that she was acting too much, but felt that she was extremely quick to adapt and quite witty! She raised her eyes and saw that the bruise on Li Chengxuan's forehead was still obvious, and retorted again: "That's not as realistic as you, and you deliberately injured your forehead." ”

Li Chengxuan was slightly silent when he heard this, and actually said, "It was Pei Xingli who beat him." ”

"Ahh Xiling Yue was surprised, "General Pei...... He's bolder than I am! ”

Li Chengxuan glanced at her: "No one is as bold as you, and you are more forgetful." ”

"Who said that? My memory is the best! Xilingyue is full of confidence.

Li Chengxuan kindly reminded her: "I ...... in the secret room last night"

"Ah, the Chamber of Secrets!" After he mentioned this, Xiling Yue suddenly remembered what she had seen and heard in the secret room last night, her heart trembled, and she immediately changed her attitude and looked at Li Chengxuan, "Lord Wang, please send me away quickly, my life will be gone if it is too late!" ”

Li Chengxuan saw that her attitude had become faster than turning a book, and he smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, Li Qi still relies on you to delay the trip to Beijing, and he won't kill you before the end of the month." ”

Month...... Xiling Yue counted the time in her heart, and was even more worried: "There is only half a month left!" ”

Seeing her so worried, Li Chengxuan's face became solemn: "Xiling." ”

"Huh?" Xiling Yue raised her eyes to look at him.

"I promise you that I will keep you safe."

"Is that true?"

"Never break your word."

"Lord Wang......" Xiling Yue was a little moved.

Li Chengxuan couldn't see her like this, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's get down to business." His right index finger began to tap on the table again, and after a moment he said, "Last night in the secret room, did you hear Li Qi mention two people?" ”

"A 'Pavilion Master', a 'Your Highness'." Xi Lingyue hurriedly answered, "Who are these two people?" and Li Qi said that he knew who the real murderer of Li Heng was. ”

"Now I want to know most about who 'Your Highness' is." Li Chengxuan's face was calm, "In my court, only the prince, the queen mother, and the queen can be called 'Your Highness', and Li Qi, as a clan, can't be unaware." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xi Lingyue's face also changed. As we all know, the current saint Li Chun ascended the throne in his prime, and when he first arrived, he had not yet been crowned a prince. And his wife, Guo Shi, is the granddaughter of Guo Ziyi, the king of Fenyang County, although she was born illustriously, she was not registered as the queen for some reason, and now rules the six palaces in the name of the concubine. In other words, now Datang does not have a "Royal Highness the Prince" at all, nor does it have a "Her Royal Highness the Queen", at most there is a "Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother". But obviously, it is impossible for the Queen Mother to come to Zhenhai in person, and the "Your Highness" referred to by Li Qi is definitely not her.

"Li Qi can't be a slip of the tongue, right?" Xiling Yue thought innocently.

"The founding of the Tang Dynasty has been nearly two hundred years old, and the royal etiquette has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and after he is the king of Huai'an, he will never make a mistake." Li Chengxuan categorically denied it, and his handsome face became more and more sinking like a cold lake, and the shadow was deep.

"That's bad, it seems that there are people in the royal family who are ambitious and want to replace the Son of Heaven!" Xiling Yue's mouth was unobstructed, and she simply said it all.

Now, the two find that things are getting more and more complicated, the conspiracy behind them is getting bigger and bigger, and the case is getting more and more tricky. again

Recalling the "Pavilion Master" in Li Qi's mouth, Xiling Yue couldn't help but guess: "This 'Pavilion Master', who sounds like he is loyal to His Royal Highness, will it have anything to do with King Teng's Pavilion?" ”

"Perhaps," Li Chengxuan speculated, "for the time being, it can only be concluded that Li Qi is their minion." ”

"So what now? Do you want to go to King Teng's Pavilion to see? Xiling Yue proposed.

But Li Chengxuan felt that it was of little significance. Because Teng Wangge is in Hongzhou and belongs to Jiangnan West Province, and Li Qi has never held a position in Jiangnan West Province. If the "pavilion master" is really in Hongzhou, how did Li Qi know him?

Li Chengxuan pondered for a moment and replied: "In order not to startle the snake, let's check Li Qi's position first." ”

This is the safest way to go. Xilingyue doesn't understand the major affairs of the family and the country, but she also thinks that this trip to Zhenhai is really bizarre, not to mention being involved in the murder case, but also knowing the king of Chaofu, and at the same time investigating the case, she has to share worries for the saint...... And the case has not progressed much, and it is a mess.

Xi Lingyue couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this: "I don't know when the murder case on my body will be over." ”

"What are you afraid of, it's a big deal to let the prince take you away!" Xiao Guo suddenly appeared outside the door and answered with a grin.

Li Chengxuan smiled and was noncommittal.

Xilingyue said solemnly: "No, I came innocently, so naturally I have to leave innocently!" ”

"Then let the prince return your innocence." Xiao Guo stepped into the door and sighed, "Oh, this trip is really not in vain, Zhenhai is so exciting!" ”

"yes, yes, it's so exciting that my life is almost gone!" Xiling Yue sighed again.

Li Chengxuan saw that the two had been talking nonsense, so he interrupted and asked Xiao Guo: "How is Wanniang's injury?" ”

Xiao Guo scratched his head: "I can't say it either, the doctor said it's okay." However, Wan Niang always said that she had a headache and chest tightness, and now she has drunk medicine and is lying down. ”

That's right, Zheng Wanniang was injured last night! Xilingyue almost forgot about her, and hurriedly interjected: "Alas, Wanniang is really amazing when it comes to it!" If it hadn't been for her last night, Li Qi wouldn't have believed us so quickly. That's a ...... Beauty saves heroes? ”

Xiao Guo also nodded again and again: "It's true!" No one informed her in advance, she was able to cooperate with us, and she acted so realistically. What a smart guy! ”

"Be smart." Li Chengxuan opened his mouth to comment.

Xiling Yue was dissatisfied: "What's wrong with being smart? Isn't it enough to 'do' well? I've always thought I'm clever! ”

"She's not like you." Li Chengxuan said, his eyes showing a little annoyance.

Xiling Yue probably guessed what was on his mind, and persuaded him: "Wan Niang ruined your reputation this time and was injured, so what if you left her by your side?" ”

"You don't understand." He didn't seem to want to say more, but said, "Take this opportunity to move in to the Imperial Garden." ”
