The woman looked back at Xiao Shao and smiled stupidly, "Who are you?" ”

"I ......" Xiao Shao wanted to say and stopped.

"I don't know you, hee-hee......" The woman began to dance after she finished speaking.

Xiao Shao's eyes burst with hatred, "Then do you remember Xiao Qin?" ”

Xiao Qin......

Liu Yaoyao tilted her head, only feeling that the name was very familiar, and she couldn't remember where she had heard it for a while.

"Ah......h

The nurse rushed out and knelt in front of Xiao Shao, "Lord Wang, don't stimulate the mother anymore." ”

Xiao Shao stared at the woman and said hatefully: "Concubine Lian is noble and flawless, how can she remember her predecessors?" ”

The woman's eyes widened, and a line of tears slowly fell.

When Xiao Shao saw the tears, he seemed to be drained of his strength all of a sudden, and opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.

The woman suddenly ran towards the outside of the cold palace, and the nurse hurriedly followed.

Xiao Xu changed his clothes and stood helplessly in front of the door with red eyes.

Liu Yaoyao hurriedly walked to Xiao Xu's side, took his little hand, and changed the topic, "Don't stay too far away from the charcoal stove, be careful of catching a cold." ”

"Do you know my mother?" Xiao Xu asked aggrievedly.

Xiao Shao's eyes were a little fluttering, recalling some past events, and said self-deprecatingly: "It's all in the past." ”

"What about the prince's brother?"

Xiao Shao's pupils shrank suddenly, and he said resentfully, "He's dead." ”

Xiao Xu's neck shrank, and he was scared and cried again.

Liu Yaoyao glanced at the initiator blamefully, lowered his head and coaxed Xiao Xu softly.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she finally remembered Xiao Qin's identity.

Xiao Qinnai is the son-in-law of the founding emperor, and of course he was named the crown prince, he was amazingly talented, and everyone praised him, and then he got a strange disease, killed people when he saw them, and finally went crazy and died.

The founding emperor had no children under his knees, and later passed the throne to his cousin, who is now Emperor Jingyuan.

Liu Yaoyao was secretly frightened, and he was afraid that it would involve many royal secrets.

Xiao Shao looked at Xiao Xu's little face, which was like Xiao Qin, and exhaled deeply.

"Sister, why did you appear in the cold palace?" Xiao Xu turned to Liu Yaoyao.

"We're here for you." Liu Yaoyao didn't hide it.

"Did Hongu do something wrong?" Xiao Xu glanced at Xiao Shao secretly, obviously still thinking about Fang Cai's affairs in his heart.

"No, we're here to protect you."

"Protect me?"

Liu Yaoyao nodded, "Tell my sister, why did you go to the side hall alone?" ”

Xiao Xu replied without thinking about it: "The banquet is too boring, I want to go and play with you." ”

"Then when you went in, did you see anyone else except the sixth princess?"

Xiao Xu shook his head, "There is no light in the side hall, and when I go in, I can't see anything." ”

"Think about it again."

If he really didn't see anything, how could the murderer be in a hurry to kill him?

"Really no, after I climbed on the table and lit the lamp, I only saw the sixth sister fall to the ground, so I was so frightened that I ran out to call someone." Xiao Xu recalled seriously.

"Later, the second emperor brother and they came." Xiao Xu added.

"Second prince?" Xiao Shao interjected coldly.

"The guard next to him looked fierce and glared at me." Xiao Xu obviously had palpitations.

"Then how did you end up overboard?" Liu Yaoyao asked, not letting go of any detail.

"The nurse went to help the concubine get food, and I waited for her by the pond, as if someone had pushed me."

"Did you see what the man looked like?"

"No, I was facing a pond."

Liu Yaoyao was a little disappointed, it seemed that they had little chance of finding clues from the Nine Emperor Princes.

"By the way, when I was in the side hall, I smelled a fragrance, and I also smelled it by the pond."

"What's the scent?" Liu Yaoyao's eyes lit up.

"It seems to smell of ambergris." Xiao Xu was a little unsure.

"Does the prince know who used this incense?" Liu Yaoyao turned her head for help.

"Ambergris is very common in the capital, and the nobles like to use it, and it is not a special incense."

"That's right." Liu Yaoyao was a little disappointed.

"It seems to have almonds in it."

"The smell of almonds?" Liu Yaoyao was a little puzzled, and couldn't think of what it was like to mix these two flavors together.

"Will that person come to me again?" Xiao Xu was very worried.

Xiao Shao said disgustedly: "The sixth princess has woken up, it doesn't make much sense to kill you at this time, your little life has been saved." ”

"That's good." Xiao Xu's heart was also put down.

"Settle down and don't run around."

"Sister, will you often come to the palace to see me?" Xiao Xu grabbed Liu Yaoyao's arm.

"The inner courtyard of the palace, I ......"

Before Liu Yaoyao's words were finished, Xiao Xu looked like he was crying again.

Liu Yaoyao hurriedly changed her words: "I will definitely come to see you if I have the chance." ”

Xiao Xu turned cloudy and sunny at this time, and smiled.

Xiao Shao looked at the palace gate coldly, and the figures of the nurse and the woman gradually became clear.

"It's time to go."

With that, he straightened up and left.

Liu Yaoyao comforted Xiao Xu a few words, and hurriedly kept up with Xiao Shao's pace.

The two passed by the woman, and Xiao Shao didn't look at her.

"Lord Wang, there are no guards in the cold palace, if the murderer would rather kill the wrong one than let it go, wouldn't the Nine Emperor Princes be dangerous?"

Xiao Xu's crisis has not been completely resolved.

"This king will send people to guard the cold palace." Xiao Shao said coldly.

Liu Yaoyao nodded, Xiao Shao was willing to do this, naturally it was the best.

"The ...... of the Cold Palace"

Xiao Shao glanced at Liu Yaoyao warningly.

Liu Yaoyao instantly understood what he meant, and hurriedly promised: "Don't worry, the princess, the courtiers haven't seen anything, and they don't know anything." ”

"You're smart."

No one spoke between the two of them, and there was silence for a moment.

"Aren't you curious about the relationship between this king and Concubine Lian?" Xiao Shao asked suddenly.

"It turns out that she is a lotus concubine, no wonder the lotus seed cake is also very delicious."

Xiao Shao glared at Liu Yaoyao with a fool-like look, is there any relationship between the two?

Liu Yaoyao smiled and said seriously: "Curiosity kills cats, and besides, there are some secrets between people, which is a normal thing." ”

"Oh?" Xiao Shao raised his eyebrows.

"As long as it doesn't affect our cooperation, nothing else matters."

In other words, they are just passers-by in each other's lives, and after the transaction is over, the world is separated, so what's the use of knowing so much?

Xiao Shao nodded with satisfaction, obviously admiring Liu Yaoyao's acquaintance.

"You can recognize your position best, and this king hates insatiable people the most." Xiao Shao said arrogantly.

Liu Yaoyao said yes, but she didn't know that the fate between her and Concubine Lian was more than that.
