Seeing her like this, Gu Mingyuan stretched out his hand to rub her temples for her, and laughed softly: "I just got home, and I was about to call you." Let's go, get off. ”

He got out of the car first, and he stood below and stretched out his hand to Qin Huaiyu.

The slender knuckles of the fingers give people a sense of security.

Qin Huaiyu smiled and put his fingers on his palm, jumping down with his strength.

The guard next to him stood respectfully, Qin Huaiyu glanced at it casually, only to feel that this person's eyes were raw, but her wine was a little strong, so she turned her head away with just one glance.

Although the night is good, it is cold in such a winter day. Fortunately, the carriage was parked at the Hanging Flower Gate, not far from the main courtyard.

So after a few moments, he returned to his room.

Returning indoors with the wind chill outside, Qin Huaiyu subconsciously shivered, but Gu Mingyuan saw her so cold, and hurriedly ordered Jinshu and them to bring hot water to serve Qin Huaiyu to bathe and change clothes.

Qin Huaiyu was a little drunk, handed over the clothes to Jin Shi in a daze, and when he turned around and saw that Gu Mingyuan was going out, he subconsciously asked, "Where is Changqing going?"

Hearing this, Gu Mingyuan turned around and smiled, and said, "This king has some things to deal with, come back later, you wash up and sleep first, you don't have to wait for me." ”

His voice was exceptionally gentle, and when he said this, he also reached out and touched Qin Huaiyu's head.

The hair was so soft that he couldn't help but pat it again.

Qin Huaiyu avoided his hand with some dissatisfaction, squinted and smiled: "Okay, then you come back early." ”

The strength of the wine made her reaction a little sluggish than usual, so she didn't see the solemnity in Gu Mingyuan's eyebrows.

It wasn't until he left the main courtyard that the smile on Gu Mingyuan's face was put away, and he turned his head and asked the attendant next to him, "Where are the people?"

The man lowered his eyebrows, lit Gu Mingyuan with a lantern, and replied respectfully: "Back to the master, people are waiting in the study." ”

Gu Mingyuan nodded and strode towards the study.

"Tell me, what's going on. ”

The one waiting in the study was the guard who was outside the door before, and when he saw Gu Mingyuan coming, the man first saluted, and then said with a solemn expression: "Back to the prince, Li Qiu is dead." ”

When he was outside at that time, he was ready to give Gu Mingyuan a return. However, they have always had special gestures, so except for Gu Mingyuan, the others can't understand it.

It's just that Qin Huaiyu was also there at that time, so he just gestured and waited beside him.

At this time, only he and Gu Mingyuan were in the room, and this person dared to tell the story.

"You're saying he's dead when you find him, right?"

Hearing this, the man nodded and replied, "The subordinates suspect that there is an inner ghost in our people." ”

Otherwise, it would be impossible for things to be so coincidental, sooner rather than later, but something happened at that time!

Regarding his speculation, Gu Mingyuan just twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, and then asked for a while: "Then have you checked the scene and found anything?"

Seeing the man shaking his head, Gu Mingyuan's expression became colder and colder.

Until now, he doesn't want to believe it, and he has to admit that he is afraid that there are really internal ghosts in his people.

Otherwise, how could things have gotten to this point? It's as if someone has an insight into the opportunity at every step of his way.

"This king knows, and you should wait for this king's command. ”

After Gu Mingyuan's order, the man immediately responded: "Yes." ”

After the man left, Gu Mingyuan stood in front of the window, looking at the heavy night, and his eyebrows and eyes cooled down more and more.

This clue was given by Qin Huaiyu, but before he could catch some clues, the clue was broken like this.

Inner ghost, is it from his side, or Qin Huaiyu's?

......

In December, it seems that even the air brings out the smell of the New Year.

This is Qin Huaiyu's first year of marrying into the Huai'an Palace, and it is also the first time she has really taken care of the affairs of the entire palace, so even with the assistant of the housekeeper and loyal servants, Qin Huaiyu also feels that all kinds of things are complicated.

Regardless of the rituals with the various mansions and palaces, but the stewards in the various shops came to report, so that she could not be idle every day.

This is just the beginning, it is only the seventh day of the lunar month, and he is not really busy at the moment, which has already made Qin Huaiyu a little unbearable.

The next day was Laba Festival, Qin Huaiyu deliberately gave a holiday to the people in the house, let them take turns to rest, and he went out with the maid early in the morning.

Some time ago, she made an appointment with Yao Yue'er and was going to her today.

It's not because of anything else, it's just because Yao Yue'er has complicated affairs at the moment, and she has a child to take care of, so she is a little too busy.

If it's an ordinary time, Liu Yueniang will sometimes come over to help. However, now that the New Year is approaching, there are many things in Liu's house, so Liu Yueniang went home early.

In this way, there is no one to help Yao Yue'er anymore, and she is quite unbearable alone.

Qin Huaiyu had promised this earlier, and it was incumbent on him to go, and when he arrived, he heard the cry of a child in the distance.

The voice was so loud that you didn't have to guess to know that it must be Kuo'er.

Sure enough, when she entered the house, she saw Yao Yue'er holding Kuo'er and coaxing, and the child didn't know what was wrong today, her little face was a little red from crying, and her voice was sobbing and choking, how to listen to it with pity.

Qin Huaiyu hasn't seen this kid since he landed, but it's the first time like today.

Seeing this, Rao is she was also startled, and hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Qin Huaiyu coming, Yao Yue'er didn't care about letting the maid greet her, and hurriedly said: "Huaiyu, you came just in time, you can help me take a look, someone next to me was setting off firecrackers in the morning, which scared Kuo'er, he has not been able to coax him now, look at it, but where is he scared?"

Hearing this, Qin Huaiyu hurriedly took Kuo'er over. It's just that Kuo'er was so frightened that she was crying so much that she couldn't breathe at this time, where was she willing to let Qin Huaiyu hug her, and she kept struggling in her arms.

Seeing this, Qin Huaiyu hurriedly coaxed Yao Yue'er together, and let her hold the child, while she carefully checked Kuo'er.

At the end, Fang Cai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Don't worry, he has nothing to do, he is probably just scared." Also, how can someone set off firecrackers at this time?"

Speaking of which, even if it is a firecracker, it will only be set off when it is a young year, today is only the Laba Festival, and it is early in the morning, why did someone start to put it?

And......

Since the accident of the Yao family before, Yao Yue'er in order to be clean, this house is newly bought, and now this lot is not only disturbed by no one, but also the house is quiet, how loud is the sound of firecrackers to scare the child like this?
