Chapter 45: Investigating the Background

"Who is it! Let me find him and not pick his skin! Qin Chen was extremely angry, and his face was pale.

Chu Jiao shrugged her shoulders, and then said with a smile: "Maybe it's a wild cat in the palace." ”

Qin Chen was willing to give up, she didn't give up, but she didn't even see that person's face just now, let alone find anyone.

"I hope you can discipline your subordinates well in the future!" After saying that, she brushed her sleeves and left.

Chu Jiao sat on the chair, her expression was a little fluctuating, and after a while, the red sleeves slipped in quietly from the door: "Master, are you okay?" ”

"Don't do this next time, do you know how dangerous it is? If I let her see you, I won't be able to protect you. Chu Jiao's tone was much colder, obviously angry.

Red Sleeves also knew that she was worried about her safety, so she hurriedly poured hot tea and said in a flattering tone: "I'm sorry, I definitely won't do this next time." But Lord, she is so arrogant, what should we do? ”

When Chu Jiao thought of this, her face was calm, it didn't matter how she was, but Mrs. Liu Chen's death was innocent, and she was a princess, how could anyone touch her?

"Don't worry, take your time in this matter." She said.

Qin Shao was not in the mansion during the day, and as soon as he came back at night, he heard Xiuying mention today's incident.

"What did she say?" Qin Shao asked.

She didn't fight back, but after the princess left, the princess was a little depressed and not in a very good mood. Xiuying said.

Qin Shao looked through the book for a while, and Aunt Ming sent someone over to invite her, saying that she wanted to go over tonight.

"Go to the Princess." Qin Shao threw away the book and left, without looking back.

The little maid saw that the prince left without looking back, and involuntarily sighed for her master, why can't it?

Before she could reach her house, she heard the sound of a harp, like a deep stagnant water, without a trace of waves, neither sad nor happy, neither angry nor hurt, just like the man who played the music.

Chu Jiao was in a calm mood, and after a song, she realized that there was still a person standing at the door.

"I heard that the princess is coming, and if you are not happy, just don't let her in in the future." Qin Shao said casually, but his eyes unconsciously followed her.

Chu Jiao didn't speak.

"She just came over, and she is a little uncomfortable, if she says something wrong, you don't mind." He said.

She still didn't speak.

His mood was inevitably a little anxious.

"By the way, I recently investigated that her identity is a little suspicious, whether she is a princess or not, it is not certain."

As soon as she said this, Chu Jiao's expression finally fluctuated slightly, as if she was finally interested in what he said.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I heard you haven't eaten all day, I'll tell you if you eat first." Qin Shao asked the red sleeves to send something in and said.

Chu Jiao barely ate a few bites, and she was still interested in the thing in his mouth.

"I've eaten, now you can say it." Chu Jiao's eyes were fixed on Qin Shao, as if she was afraid of missing something.

"Oh yes, it's not early now, Aunt Ming is still waiting for me, I still have something to do, wait for me to come to see you tomorrow, and then talk to you carefully." After saying that, Qin Shao left in a hurry, Chu Jiao always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't doubt his words too much.

Xiu Ying listened to his master's words clearly outside, and he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, but how could he not know that Princess Qinchen had a problem? Why didn't he remember that the prince asked him to investigate this matter?

Could it be...

Could it be that the prince is carrying him behind his back, and there is already a new secret guard?

As soon as he thought of this, his heart tightened, his eyes lit up, he must not let his master do this!

Qin Shao hurriedly walked out of it, looking at Xiuying's face was very bad, as if he was about to cry.

"Don't cry with a sad face, hurry up and investigate everything about Princess Qinchen, see if there is anything suspicious, don't let it go at all, and give me the results tomorrow."

Xiuying didn't react for a while.

"What? Don't hurry up yet! He said.

Xiuying hurriedly left.

Qin Shao saw that the light on Aunt Ming's side was still on, so he walked over, and when he went in, he saw Aunt Ming reading the account book, this time he was much more serious.

"That's good." There was a hint of relief in his tone.

Hearing the familiar voice, a hint of surprise appeared in Aunt Ming's eyes: "Lord Wang, why are you here?" Didn't you say you wouldn't be here today? ”

As she spoke, she began to busy tidying up, and the mattress and quilts were all laid out, but he held her shoulder, and her body shrank a little, but her heart was excited.

"Actually, I haven't touched you, every time in your room, you just fall asleep, if you want someone in the future, leave the palace."

There was a hint of pity in his tone, but there was no emotion.

Aunt Ming was like being struck by lightning, and the whole person froze.

"King, lord, are you kidding?" Her voice was hoarse.

"No, it's just that this king won't like you, and he won't touch you in the future, if you don't want to leave, you will grow old in the palace, if you meet someone you like, just go, this king will say that you are sick and dead, and he won't say anything outside."

Aunt Ming wanted to cry without tears, and after Qin Shao turned around and left, the last bit of her breath was gone, and the whole person sat on the ground, her whole heart contracted tightly.

"Lord Wang, I've been in the palace for so many years, can't I compare to her a few months?" Aunt Ming muttered.

"Lord, you are still young, maybe there are good men in other families?" Xiao Cui kindly persuaded.

Aunt Ming slapped her, and she shouted loudly while twitching: "What do you know about a dead girl!" How much have I done for this home? I don't want him to give me anything, and I'm not asking for a single favor, I just want him to be able to look at me more or less in his spare time, which is enough, and I also think that as long as he can give me a child in the future, I will be satisfied, and I won't be noisy or noisy, but I didn't expect that he would never touch me! ”

She became hysterical, and Xiaocui also started crying, and the two of them hugged each other and kept crying.

……

Before the chickens began to crow, the sky was slightly white like a fish's belly, and the sun and moon appeared on both sides of the sky at the same time.

At this time, a black figure kept shuttling through the palace, and then quietly entered the study.

I have to say that the efficiency of Xiuying is very high.

Soon all of Princess Qinchen's life history was investigated.

Qin Shao crawled out of the warm collapse, and then looked at all her things, his brows furrowed tightly.

After dawn, Chu Jiao was already dressed neatly, and Mrs. Shi's revenge could not be avenged.

As a result, when she waited until noon, Qin Shao didn't come, and when she went to look for it, it turned out that he had something to go out, so she had to wait.

Qin Shao came back in the middle of the night and saw that the candle in his study was still lit, so he deliberately slowed down and gently pushed the door open.

The candle flame flickered slightly, and it was about to burn out, Chu Jiao sat on the stool, supporting her forehead with one hand, and closed her eyes, as if she had fallen asleep, and the carbon fire was about to burn out.

He wanted to carry her back to rest, but he didn't expect that with a light touch, she woke up.

"Why did you come back so late?"

"I also said that I fell asleep in the study and caught a cold." He reproached in tone, but forgot that the clothes on his body when he first entered the house were all cool, so he draped them on her body, so that she was more energetic.

"What you want to know, I've investigated, where Qin Chen stayed before, in a small room next to Ganye Temple, there is another little girl who lives with her, and her life experience is also her own initiative to find people in the court, and then it was discovered, as for how the two girls survived, it was Liu Chen Shi Tai who picked them up and raised them." Qin Shao said.

Chu Jiao was shocked, she didn't expect that there was such a connection.

Since Mrs. Liu had adopted her, what else could she do like that?

"Because Mrs. Liu Chen's status is relatively high, people in the temple often come to look for her, so sometimes she can't be available, and the meditation around her will help to deliver food to the two girls." He continued.

Master Liu is dead, meditation is gone, and the only breakthrough is ......

"What about the other girl?" She asked hurriedly.

"Another girl has been missing for half a month, and her whereabouts are still unknown, according to my investigation, she should have fallen from the mountain, because the Ganye Temple was originally on the mountain, this possibility is very high, and the monks in the Ganye Temple also said so."

Chu Jiao felt that things were very strange, how could these things be so sudden.

She was a little discouraged, and the girl was the only clue.

"I want to go tomorrow, I hope Xiuying will follow me and show me the way." Chu Jiao said.

"Well, it's not early today, so you can go back to sleep first." Qin Shao said.

The next day, Qin Shao still followed.

Everyone went around to the foot of the mountain together, but the foot of the mountain was very barren and there was nothing, and when Chu Jiao saw the environment here, her heart was actually half cold.

Everywhere you look, you can't see any living creatures, and if someone falls down and survives, they will starve to death.

She was a little distracted, the soles of her feet suddenly stepped into the air, her body lost her balance, fortunately her hand was caught in time, she looked back at Qin Shao, her eyes grateful.

"There are a lot of potholes like this in front of you, and you just follow me if you don't know the depth." He held her behind him.

Chu Jiao was a little puzzled, and only heard Xiuying say: "Our master took someone to look here all day yesterday, but there are no clues. ”

After hearing this, she was a little touched in her heart, and the words of thanks were in her ears, but she didn't say them.
