After Chu Jinrong gave the order, the East Palace immediately sent heavy troops to surround the Fuyang Hou Mansion, interrogated all the people from the Hou Mansion, and even interrogated the Liu family and Li Luoyao that Li Qiuchi talked about, and the two refused to admit it, insisting that they had never done such a thing. After two busy days, I still don't have a clue. Chu Jinrong listened to the reports of the people below, and finally became angry, he slapped the table hard, "Everyone said that they didn't poison it, could it be that this poison was not done by themselves!" ”

The person reporting below knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak, and cold sweat gradually broke out on his forehead, and the pressure from above did not decrease for half a minute. When Zhao Xiaotang walked in from the outside, he saw Chu Jinrong's whole eyes gloomy, and the room was also covered with gloom like a storm, and he was immediately surprised, it was rare to see Chu Jinrong so angry, it seems that His Royal Highness really cares about Miss Li.

He strode over and clenched his fists, "Your Highness, it's worth the trip." ”

The gloom in Chu Jinrong's eyes subsided a little, "Oh? ”

Zhao Xiaotang took out the jade pendant in his arms and handed it to Chu Jinrong, his voice was quiet, "This is something I picked up by chance in a side courtyard, there is a smell in it that is very similar to the smell of oleander in the pastry, I looked left and right, it seems to be the courtyard where some people live." ”

Chu Jinrong took it and sniffed it, his eyes sank, and he quickly thought of the trick, "You mean that someone may assign someone in the Hou Mansion to do this?" ”

Zhao Xiaotang bowed slightly, "I don't rule out this possibility." ”

Chu Jinrong put away the jade pendant, "I know." After thinking of a way, he strode out of the main hall and went straight to the Autumn Rain Pavilion.

At this time, Li Qiuchi was studying the oleander juice in the pastry in the house, and he didn't raise his head after seeing Chu Jinrong walk in, "You're here." A few days of worrying made her face haggard, and even her voice became hoarse.

Chu Jinrong was a little distressed, strode to Li Qiuchi's side, pulled her to the edge of the bed and sat down, and said in a low voice, "Don't think about it yet, I will help you find out the real murderer." ”

Li Qiuchi let him pull him, his eyes full of exhaustion. Chu Jinrong could feel her sadness, but he didn't know where this sadness came from, his emotions were so complicated that he didn't know how to comfort her. And so the two fell silent.

"In the past two days, I have asked people to interrogate Liu and Li Luoyao," Chu Jinrong suddenly broke the silence, "None of them admit that they did it themselves." He glanced at Li Qiuchi, but found that Li Qiuchi was unexpectedly calm, as if expected.

Li Qiuchi took a deep breath, feeling a dull pain from the inside out in his heart, the sourness spread little by little, and suddenly there was a mist in his eyes, and this emotion did not come from her, but from the original owner.

For some reason, her face was cold, she opened her mouth, and her voice was choked, "Back then, my mother was also poisoned." ”

Chu Jinrong rarely saw her so depressed, she was always very arrogant in the past, as if she didn't care about anything, but suddenly she exposed such a fragile side, and his heart was as uncomfortable as being blocked by a big stone.

Li Qiuchi was in a trance, and suddenly there was a burst of warmth in her hand, she slowly turned her head, but saw Chu Jinrong holding her hand tightly, with a gentle smile, "Big Fat just went to another place, presumably, it doesn't want to see you sad and cry, let's go and bury it, so that it can rest in peace." ”

Li Qiuchi naturally knew that there was something in this, and she paused in her heart, and she was also full of gratitude to Chu Jinrong.

In a sunny place in the back garden, Li Qiuchi and Chu Jinrong buried Da Pang at the foot of the rockery, the surrounding flowers were fragrant, and the environment was also very quiet.

Her eyes were still a little red, and when she looked at the grave in front of her, she suddenly thought of something, and felt sad in her heart.

Chu Jinrong grilled the grilled fish in front of the big fat grave, the smell of the fish was fragrant, he even pretended to pick up the grilled fish skewers and circled in front of the big fat grave, "Big fat, big fat, if you are over there, you have to eat better, this palace personally grilled the fish for you, if other cats know, I don't know how envious I am." ”

Li Qiuchi listened to his words, and immediately burst into tears and laughed, "Narcissist, who is rare about your grilled fish." ”

was disturbed by him like that, and the sadness of losing his big fat was diluted a lot.

When Chu Jinrong heard her laugh, he immediately smiled, took the grilled fish skewer in his hand, and deliberately circled in front of Li Qiuchi, the freshly grilled fish still exuded a charming fragrance at this time, and the tip of Li Qiuchi's nose couldn't help but move.

However, a certain prince directly turned the grilled fish skewers back and raised his eyebrows, "Look at what?" This is the big fat one given by the palace himself, and you are not allowed to eat it secretly. ”

Li Qiuchi snorted, and was about to grab it immediately, Chu Jinrong was agile, and after a circle of footsteps, he bypassed Li Qiuchi's snatching.

She twitched the corner of her mouth, and saw Chu Jinrong in front of her looking at her with a wary face, for fear that she would snatch the grilled fish skewers in her hand, and suddenly became helpless, "Am I that kind of person?" Even a skewer of grilled fish has to be grabbed. ”

Chu Jinrong smiled and bent his eyebrows, "Naturally not, I believe you ......"

Suddenly, like a gust of wind blowing, Chu Jinrong was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, the skewers in his hand were gone, and Li Qiuchi was holding the skewers in his hand, raising his eyebrows proudly, seeing Chu Jinrong as if he had just woken up from a big dream, and suddenly she burst into laughter.

The sound of happy laughter echoed in the backyard in an instant, and Li Qiuchi couldn't stand up with a straight waist.

"......" Chu Jinrong.

Whatever trust you have, feed it to the dogs.

After the mood calmed down, Li Qiuchi and Chu Jinrong sat on the lawn, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, the sun was lazily sprinkled, and everything was very peaceful.

Chu Jinrong pillowed his head on one arm, and suddenly asked Li Qiuchi next to him curiously, "By the way, why have I never heard you talk about your mother?" ”

Li Qiuchi's heart paused, and his gaze became distant, "When I was in the prime of my life, my mother passed away. Chu Jinrong suddenly didn't know how to speak, but listened to Li Qiuchi continue.

"I was playing in the courtyard while she was mending my clothes, and I saw her fall and foam at the mouth, and she looked horrible." Recalling the past, Li Qiuchi's face suddenly turned pale, Chu Jinrong frowned, and hurriedly held her hand before she found a little strength.

"I don't know what's going on, I just know that later, I didn't have a mother, and the Liu family was originally a concubine, because of my mother's death, but my status was high." When she mentioned these past events, she still felt ridiculous, felt the anger of the original owner, and her heart burned like a flame.
