"Lord Wang, then how to deal with this?" the guard asked puzzledly, after all, this matter is a big trouble, and it will soon alarm the emperor's people, Zhu Qingliu is not here.

Lu Yuanbai didn't look like he was in a hurry, and after making sure that the eldest lady really had no chance of living, he raised his feet and walked out: "Deal with it as you want." ”

He only promised Zhu Qingliu not to hand over people to the emperor, and he didn't say that he wouldn't report the incident tonight to the emperor.

The emperor quickly brought people over, the blood on the ground had been cleaned up, and the eldest lady lay on the ground with her eyes wide open, her eyes glazed away.

The eunuch glanced at it, and immediately asked people to carry the body down and dispose of it: "Your Majesty, eighty percent of the people have already gone and can't be saved." ”

"Who did it? Who else was here before me?" the Emperor closed his eyes, apparently unwilling to look any further.

"This ......," the eunuch hesitated.

The emperor saw his reaction, and scolded with a cold face in his unhappy voice: "Is there anything else I can't know? ”

"The slave heard that it was the fourth prince, he was present last night, it is possible that he witnessed the murder of the eldest lady?"

"Why is it him again?" the Emperor's brows furrowed, his face becoming more and more embarrassed, "Why did he appear in such a coincidence last night?"

The eunuch didn't dare to answer casually, the emperor's angry sleeves waved, and went directly to the Four Princes' Mansion, and Lu Yuanbai was held by the emperor when he wanted to salute.

The emperor looked at him for a moment, but he really couldn't see any clues, and then he retracted his gaze and asked, "In your eyes, what do you think of what the emperor is doing?"

"The emperor's brother has the world in his heart and puts the people first in everything, which is a model for the courtiers to learn from, and it is also a blessing for the people, and the courtiers are naturally admired. Lu Yuanbai was stunned, and then smiled.

"Is that what you mean?" the Emperor asked again.

Lu Yuanbai nodded without thinking: "The courtier brother will not deceive the imperial brother." ”

"With your words, I can feel at ease, but there are always people in Shangjing who want my throne hard, and I remember his old feelings for him, and my repeated relaxation is not for him to repeat it. ”

The Emperor seemed to inadvertently withdraw his gaze and tell the death of the eldest lady, his tone as if questioning, "You'd better tell me the truth, why you were there last night, and what did you see?"

"Has the emperor seen Lord Zhu today?"

The emperor's eyes were puzzled, and he suddenly had some bad premonitions in his heart: "How can you say this?"

Lu Yuanbai told the scene of last night one by one, including the fact that he asked people to follow Zhu Qingliu: "The younger brother suspects that he is trying to cover up the man in black before, but the younger brother has already asked people to follow him." ”

"I didn't expect it to be like this!" the emperor snorted angrily and raised his voice to the eunuch beside him, "Now go and find Zhu Qingliu for me." ”

"Yes. The eunuch was about to withdraw, but after thinking about it, he asked again, "...... Concubine Jing?"

The emperor was silent for a moment, and after a long time, he slowly opened his lips: "What she will know sooner or later, she doesn't have to hide it, bury the eldest lady with the etiquette of a first-class lady, and persuade her to mourn." ”

"Yes. ”

Lu Yuanbai curled the corners of his mouth, paused and asked, "If Lord Zhu comes, what does the emperor plan to do?"

"There will be no mercy according to the law. "The emperor said resolutely.

In less than half a pillar of incense, Zhu Qingliu came with the eunuch, and his face was calm and calm: "Your Majesty, what does the prince have to tell me to look for me?"

"Where were you last night?"

"Resting in the mansion, why did the prince ask like this?" Zhu Qingliu asked innocently, his eyes turned to the emperor, "Isn't there something happening in Beijing......

"Last night, the eldest lady was gone, and the fourth prince said that you did it. The emperor's gloomy gaze turned to him and said coldly, "You have to give me a reasonable explanation." ”

Zhu Qingliu knelt on the ground, didn't blink when he heard the words, and responded freely: "The minister has alibi evidence, but the prince is indeed at the scene, I don't know why the prince said those words to the emperor." ”

"Although the minister is soft-spoken, he will not admit what he has not done, and he will not dare to speculate that the prince framed him, so the minister believes that the emperor can give the prince innocence, and he can also return the minister's innocence!"

The smile in Lu Yuanbai's eyes faded, and he met his eyes and asked, "You mean that you haven't been to the prison last night, and you haven't seen the eldest lady?"

"That's true. ”

"Brother Huang, but believe his words......" Seeing this, Lu Yuanbai no longer continued to talk to him, but asked the emperor.

I thought that someone was going to kill the eldest lady, but it seemed that a bureau was set up for him in the dark, which not only got rid of the eldest lady, but also appeased the Protectorate Mansion, and also involved Lu Yuanbai, which shows that the people behind it are deeply thoughtful.

The emperor's face was condensed, and he couldn't see the true feelings in his complicated eyes, so he asked people to send Zhu Qingliu away: "I don't believe him, and I won't wronged you, but you shouldn't deceive me, this is what I hate the most." ”

"It's my brother's mistake. Lu Yuanbai lowered his eyes, quickly admitted it, and his mind spun rapidly, connecting everything together.

No matter what happens, there is always a person, if it is just a coincidence, but that person appears in time every time, and the clues seem to be looming......

"It doesn't matter if you toss in normal times, but I can't tolerate it, anyone who wants to move the throne!" After the emperor finished speaking, he strode away, and Lu Yuanbai swept towards his back.

Chi Yingchu heard that the emperor was coming, and was about to pass when she saw the emperor leaving, so she had to hide for the time being, and her every move was watched by Lu Yuanbai.

"What are you doing sneakily?" Lu Yuanbai reminded with a light cough.

She looked up at him, thinking of the conversation she had just overheard, and there was some schadenfreude: "I didn't, but the prince, have you been reprimanded?"

Lu Yuanbai didn't answer her words, and didn't admit or deny it: "What do you want to say?"

"Who told you not to tell me at the time, and you didn't play your cards according to common sense, otherwise I would be able to help you, and you wouldn't lose to Zhu Qingliu in front of the emperor. ”

"Who told you that this king lost?" he raised his eyebrows, his eyes teasing.

"Then what is the prince calculating?" she stepped forward curiously, "Is it convenient to tell me?"

"Inconvenient. He refused directly, not to mention face, and he didn't even leave her the inside.

"This king wants to play, ten Zhu Qingliu is not the opponent of this king, it is only a matter of minutes to kill him, besides, this king is not even afraid of the emperor, how can he be afraid of him?"

"......" arrogant, arrogant, domineering!

He even dared to say this kind of words from the Nine Clans, and Chi Yingchu's eyes lit up when he looked at him: "You dare to say this in front of the emperor again?"

If you chase it out now, will you still be able to catch up with the emperor's carriage?

"Childish. Lu Yuanbai pushed her away and turned to leave.

Chi Yingchu was disdainful in his heart, but thinking of the inexplicable death of the eldest lady, he still decided to ask the prince of the party, he must know what the inside story was!

On the other side, the Protector's Mansion was full of vegetarian food, crying and complaining, the eldest lady was lying in the coffin, and the Protector and Chu Jingshu were wearing linen and filial piety to burn paper money.

The Protector looked around, but he didn't see the figure of the second lady, and he wanted to let his subordinates shout, and if she was missing on this occasion, it would make outsiders talk about it.

The second lady appeared in white clothes, her face was cold: "Grandpa Guo doesn't need to bother, the concubine is here." ”

"Mother, I will definitely avenge you!" Chu Jingshu's eyes reflected a strong hatred, and she decided that it was Chu Yimiao's fault.
