It turned out that the emperor I heard before was very fond of this talented princess Ruocheng, and it was not groundless. The emperor really liked Baili Ruocheng, who was well versed in poetry, and when he heard about her death, he couldn't help but panic a little.

The rest of the people were just as surprised. Lu Siguan glanced at Liu Qingyan with some suspicion, and the latter nodded very lightly.

And when the queen saw the emperor like this, she was also a little flustered, and took a step back: "Your Majesty, this ......"

How can this be explained to the emperor? The truth has not yet been found out, if you talk nonsense, you will definitely make the emperor angry, and if you don't say it, I am afraid that the emperor will be as angry, or even more angry.

Just when the queen was about to speak, Du Guifei on the side took the lead in opening her mouth and said, "Your Majesty, don't you know that this matter was done by the princess Qi you liked very much just now." ”

"What?" Everyone's eyes shifted to Liu Qingyan's body at this moment, with unanimous suspicion.

"You said it's Princess Qi?" The emperor looked at Du Guifei, and his voice was cold.

Although Du Guifei was also afraid of the emperor in her heart, she still said: "Yes, the imperial doctor has already come to take a look, if Princess Ruocheng drank poisonous wine, she will die of fragrant jade, and the cup of poisonous wine she drank came from the hands of Princess Qi." After speaking, she raised her hand to wipe a handful of tears that didn't exist at all, and said, "So, Your Majesty, tell me who it is?" ”

The emperor frowned and looked at Liu Qingyan and did not speak.

Du Guifei thought that the emperor still didn't believe what she said, so she continued to cry: "If Princess Cheng is such a well-behaved princess, who would have thought that this Princess Qi would be such a killer...... The prince of that state has also seen the portrait of the princess, but he likes it very much, and now if the princess is gone, what should I do with the affinity? Your Majesty, tell me, why is things so unsmooth? ”

"Shut up!" The Emperor suddenly spoke up and interrupted her with a cold expression.

"Your Majesty......" Du Guifei still had a few tears on her face, and looked at the emperor aggrievedly at this time.

"Don't think that when I'm old, I'll believe anything," the emperor snorted coldly, refusing to look at her again, but turned to Liu Qingyan, "Princess Qi, it just so happens that you are the Yin of Jingfu, if this matter is completed, I will leave it to you to investigate." ”

Liu Qingyan lowered her head and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”

Du Guifei over there was still squirming, and Liu Qingyan glanced at her. In the past, she felt that Du Guifei was extremely indifferent, holding the shelf of the concubine, and she was indifferent at home. Unexpectedly, when this Du Guifei arrived in front of the emperor, she was like a naïve girl who didn't know anything, but it was clear that she was not young.

Could it be that the emperor likes this bite? So Du Guifei deliberately did this in order to compete for favor?

"Okay, I'm going to take a look at Ruocheng," the emperor spoke again, his brows furrowed tightly, and his face was a little pale, "Princess Qi, you can go with King Qi to investigate this matter." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Liu Qingyan and Lu Siguan responded together. With her, Liu Qingyan's heart instantly settled down a lot.

At the same time, Lu Siguan also took a step forward very naturally and stood by Liu Qingyan's side.

Nangong Yi next to him also stood up: "Your Majesty, if you can, please let me help too, right?" ”

The emperor glanced at him and waved his hand: "It's okay for you to help, maybe it's better." If there are many people, then this matter can be investigated and dealt with quickly. In this way, it can be regarded as an explanation from me to Ruocheng. ”

"Thank you for your grace!" Nangong Yi hurriedly thanked him.

The emperor led his concubines and several other royal families to see Baili Ruocheng's corpse, leaving Liu Qingyan, Lu Siguan and Nangong Yi behind, plus several other guards.

"Little General, you don't have to worry about this matter." Liu Qingyan frowned and said.

She was very skeptical now that Nangong Yi did such a thing because she liked her and wanted to get close to her.

Nangong Yi glanced at her, and then said, "Princess, to be honest, don't you suspect that the fact that Princess Ruocheng died after drinking poisonous wine has a lot to do with my sister?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Qingyan was stunned fiercely, and looked at Nangong Yi in disbelief: "You...... What did you just say? ”

"Princess, you didn't hear it wrong just now," Nangong Yi said, "What I said is to suspect my sister." ”

"But...... She's your sister, isn't it nice for you to say that to me? Liu Qingyan frowned at him.

Nangong Yi sighed: "When I was hunting on horseback just now, I told King Qi, this time I originally told my father not to bring my sister over, I was really afraid of what kind of thing she would do." But my father won't listen to me, and I really can't ......."

Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Siguan, who nodded very lightly at her, indicating that Nangong Yi had really said this.

After a pause, Nangong Yi continued: "I don't know why my sister became what she is now, but since she would do such a thing, she will definitely do other more things like this in the future, maybe the next victim will really be you, the princess." ”

"So what?" Liu Qingyan frowned, "There is no evidence at hand, and you can't convict your sister." ”

Nangong Yi shook his head very lightly: "No, there is such a thing as evidence, it has never been discovered, and it will not be said that there is none." Princess, you should know this too, right? ”

Liu Qingyan nodded slightly, and Nangong Yi continued: "Then I will go and collect that evidence, princess, prince, you two will wait for me for a while." ”

"What kind of evidence are you going to collect?" Liu Qingyan asked out loud.

"I live with my sister, and when I went to look for her this morning, I saw that she was hiding something under the bed," Nangong Yi said, "I guess that must be inextricably linked to this poisoning incident." And I guess I'm the only one who can enter my sister's room and find that thing. ”

Liu Qingyan nodded slightly: "Then you have to be careful." ”

"Don't worry, princess." Nangong Yi smiled, turned around and left.

Liu Qingyan then looked at Lu Siguan, who had never said anything, and said a little strangely: "In the past, I could smell vinegar when I said one or two more words to the little general, why did the two of us talk for a long time this time, and you didn't even have an unhappy expression?" ”

As she spoke, she flattened her mouth: "I probably know, it seems that you don't like me anymore." ”

"Fool, how could I not like you?" Lu Siguan couldn't help laughing, raised his hand and rubbed her head.

"Then why don't you talk all the time?" Liu Qingyan asked.

Lu Siguan frowned, was silent for a moment, and then said: "Nangong Yi is a little strange recently, but what is strange, I really can't speak." However, I just feel very unnatural in my heart. ”

Liu Qingyan also became serious together: "I have to say, I also feel this way." ”

Lu Siguan looked at her: "Then tell me, what do you think is different about him?" There should be a lot of differences from the past, you know him better than me, after all, the two of you have more contact. ”

Liu Qingyan smiled: "I thought you were going to talk about drinking vinegar again, I and the little general are just friends." ”

After a pause, she added, "Actually, I think the most strange thing is that somehow, this little general seems to like being with you more and more. ”

Could it be that he was injured and poisoned again, so Nangong Yi turned to like men, and he fell in love with Lu Siguan without saying a word? This is definitely a huge shock for Liu Qingyan. Because this means that it will not be Lu Siguan who will drink vinegar in the future, but her.

"When you say this, I also have a very deep feeling," Lu Siguan didn't know what was going on in her mind, "Fang just hunted with the emperor, I was very close to Nangong Yi, he has been talking to me all the time, it seems that he is extremely close to me." ”

"And then?" Liu Qingyan looked at him a little nervously - could it be that he was kissed?

Lu Siguan frowned and said: "Originally, I didn't have any feelings, but then the emperor also noticed the relationship between me and Nangong Yi, and came to ask, Nangong Yi said that he and I were very good friends, and he even proposed to the emperor that I restore my authority." These things can be said to be his credit. ”

Liu Qingyan finally suddenly realized: "It turns out that you can restore your authority, and the little general has a lot of credit." ”

"That's true," Lu Si nodded, "but I don't understand, why is that?" Why? ”

Liu Qingyan thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Could it be because of ...... The little general doesn't like me anymore, but he likes you? Lu Siguan, I may drink vinegar in the future. ”

Lu Siguan glanced at her deeply: "It's normal, okay?" I'm talking to you about something very serious! ”

Liu Qingyan smiled and said, "I'm just joking." ”

"If you're not kidding, what do you think?" Lu Siguan asked her.

Liu Qingyan was silent for a moment, and was about to speak, when Nangong Yi, who was trotting over there, sounded: "Lord Wang! Princess, I've got something! ”

Hearing this, Liu Qingyan also swallowed the words she was going to say back into her stomach, and looked at Nangong Yi with Lu Siguan.

Nangong Yi ran to the two people and stopped, with a small bottle in the palm of his hand: "This is what I found under my sister's bed, it's poison." ”

Lu Siguan and Liu Qingyan glanced at each other, because Nangong Hui followed behind Nangong Yi: "Brother, what did you take from me?" ”
