In Qilan Garden, Bai Shihuan was resting on the bed, and the discomfort in recent days made her not want to get out of bed and walk around.

The door opened, Feihe walked quickly to the bed, looked at Bai Shihuan, who was sleeping at this time, and did not speak.

Opening his eyes, Bai Shihuan saw Feihe standing next to the bed, and frowned slightly: "What's the matter?" ”

"Princess, Lord Liu asks to see!" When Liu Bin visited, Feihe knew that he couldn't slack off, but he didn't want to disturb Bai Shihuan's sleep, so he didn't dare to disturb him.

For Liu Bin, although he is only a small civil official, Bai Shihuan also knows that his father trusts him. Don't offend him much immediately, "Let him come in~"

Feihe pulled down the curtain and quickly withdrew to reply to Liu Bin.

When Liu Bin entered the house, Bai Shihuan also sat on the bed with the pillow behind him, "Lord Liu, is there something wrong?" ”

"Princess, Weichen came this time to take the princess out of Mowang's Mansion on the order of the lord of the country." Liu Bin looked at Bai Shihuan in front of him respectfully, and explained his intentions.

Bai Shihuan undoubtedly didn't want to leave now, but Liu Bin was talking about her father, which made her have to think more. Seeing this, Feihe left with interest, she knew that Bai Shihuan would not miss her at this time.

Seeing Bai Shihuan's hesitation, Liu Bin said again: "Princess, the lord of the country ordered you to come to Xuanwu Kingdom this time, did the princess forget her duties?" If you miss the big thing of the lord, whether it is a princess or a minister, you can't afford it. ”

Bai Shihuan, who was still a little hesitant, listened to Liu Bin's words, and what she hated the most was being threatened. Immediately, Bai Shihuan snorted coldly, "Lord Liu, are you threatening this princess?" How daring! ”

"It's not that Weichen threatens the princess, Weichen's words are just to let the princess see more clearly. What can be done and what cannot be done, even if it is involuntary, it is also a last resort. Liu Bin is neither humble nor arrogant, and admonishes with every word, which makes Bai Shihuan even more disliked.

"You...... cough cough ......" was extremely angry, Bai Shihuan couldn't help coughing violently, but Liu Bin still didn't show the slightest pity, "Princess, you'd better make up your mind as soon as possible, the lord of the country will not allow his plan to deviate, you should know very well." ”

Finally stopped coughing, Bai Shihuan stared at Liu Bin hatefully, "Liu Bin, I know my father's plan, but it's okay to let Lord Xue enter the palace, isn't it?" ”

The slightly frowning brows still did not loosen, Liu Bin looked at Bai Shihuan in front of him, his eyes revealed unknown thoughts, "Wechen will give the princess a day to think about it, if the princess still thinks like this tomorrow, Wechen will inform the princess of the princess's decision, and the lord will decide." ”

"There is no need for tomorrow, this princess has already decided to stay in the Mo Palace. As for entering the palace, let the Lord of Snow County enter the palace. Bai Shihuan didn't talk nonsense, and she didn't feel that she needed time to think about it, "Liu Bin, you go directly to inform your father, I believe that my father will agree to my request." ”

The ridicule in his eyes became more and more obvious, but unfortunately Bai Shihuan couldn't see it, in Liu Bin's eyes, Bai Shihuan was a pathetic woman who only coveted personal love, "Since this is the case, then Weichen will return to the lord of the country as the princess wishes." ”

For some reason, Bai Shihuan suddenly felt a sense of panic......

Three days later, in the early morning, Ye Zhining and Dongfang Mo were woken up by a noise, listening to the sound outside the house, Dongfang Mo patted Ye Zhining, who had not woken up yet, "You sleep for a while, I'll go out and have a look." ”

"Hmm~" With a faint hum, Ye Zhining closed her eyes slightly and continued to sleep.

Putting on his clothes, Dongfang Mo walked out of the room, and Xiao Tao, who was discussing anxiously at the door at this time, was relieved when she saw Dongfang Mo. Without waiting for Dongfang Mo to ask, Steward Wang hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, something is wrong, Princess Shihuan was killed in the room." ”

Hearing such news early in the morning is obviously not a good sign, especially someone is still in his mansion...... "Tell me clearly, what's going on?" ”

"That's the kind of prince, this morning Feihe entered Princess Shihuan's room at the beginning of Chenshi as usual, but found that Princess Shihuan died in the room." Steward Wang briefly explained the matter, if this matter is not handled well, it is indeed a very troublesome matter.

Now that the diplomatic relations between the White Tiger Kingdom and the Xuanwu Kingdom are just better, the envoy has not left, but the princess sent to him died in the Mowang Mansion. Such a situation has to make people wonder if it is a provocation by the Xuanwu Kingdom to the White Tiger Kingdom.

The door behind her opened, and Ye Zhining got up as early as she realized that something was wrong. At this time, I happened to hear Steward Wang's words, "Is there anyone guarding the scene?" ”

"Back to the princess, I have asked the family to guard Princess Shihuan's room and not let people enter at will." Steward Wang protected the scene as soon as possible, and no matter what the result was, he had to do what he could do well.

With a slight bow, Ye Zhining looked at Xiao Tao and said, "Go and fetch water for me and the prince to wash, Steward Wang, you go to Qilan Yuan first, and the prince and I will come later." In addition, don't publicize this matter now, otherwise it will easily cause unnecessary trouble to our palace. ”

"Yes, Princess!" Steward Wang received Ye Zhining's order and left in a hurry. Dongfang Mo had no opinion on Ye Zhining directly passing over him and giving orders, for him, this was a manifestation of Ye Zhining's trust in him, and vice versa.

After the two washed up, they didn't eat breakfast, and rushed directly to Qilan Garden, where the accident occurred. At this time, Qilan Yuan had been blocked, although some people were strange about what had happened, but without their orders, no one dared to say anything.

Let people be curious about Lan Yuan, Ye Zhining and Dongfang Mo stepped straight into the courtyard, and they were greeted by Bai Xuehui. When she saw Bai Xuehui, Ye Zhining thought that Bai Xuehui also lived in this Qilan Garden, "Lord Xue, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

"Princess Mo, take a step to speak!" At this time, everyone is still at the gate of the courtyard, so people outside the door can still hear what they talk here. Ye Zhining glanced at the family at the door, and walked with Bai Xuehui with Dongfang Mo for a while, before Bai Xuehui stopped, "Princess Mo, Princess Shihuan's death can't be hidden." ”

Ye Zhining was not surprised that Bai Xuehui knew about Bai Shihuan's death, as normal, a person would definitely scream when he found a corpse. And usually such a voice will also attract the attention of people nearby, Bai Xuehui, who lives not far from Bai Shihuan, has no reason not to know about Bai Shihuan's death. But now, what does she mean by that? "Make it clear!"

Seeing Ye Zhining's slightly cold face, Bai Xuehui didn't say anything more, and said straightforwardly: "Feihe is no longer in Qilan Garden, I guess she left to find Liu Bin." Once Liu Bin knows, it means that the White Tiger Kingdom will soon know, and His Majesty Xuanwu will also know. ”

What Bai Xuehui said was not wrong, if Feihe was really not in Qilan Garden, then most likely he would not be able to hide this matter. Although she originally just wanted to hide it, not all the time, but in the eyes of others, it was different.

"Mo, go to Steward Wang and ask if Xia Feihe is really not in Qilan Garden. If so, ask the guards guarding the gate of Qilan Garden and the gate of Mowang's Mansion, if you are sure that the person has walked out of Mowang's Mansion, then find someone with the best light skills, and rush to the palace to explain the murder of Princess Shihuan. After Ye Zhining finished speaking calmly, Dongfang Mo didn't ask anything and left directly.

Ye Zhining did this as a last resort, if she really wanted people to know, it would be better for them to say it than to leak it out from someone else's mouth. According to today's battle, if the Mowang Mansion does not send someone to pay tribute, I am afraid that he will be deducted from the hat of a bully. In case of provoking a dispute between the two countries, then the most likely thing is to be sent out directly as a substitute for the dead.

And the fact is that Feihe has indeed left the Mowang Mansion, but it has not been out for a long time. Feihe has no internal strength and will not work lightly, Dongfang Mo directly asked one of the guards with better light skills to let him report it, and he must be in front of Feihe.

When Dongfang Mo returned to Qilan Garden, he was informed by the guards at the door, and the princess asked him to go directly to the room where the accident occurred. When Dongfang Mo arrived, Ye Zhining was inspecting some of the items in the house......

There was still residual powder in the incense burner, although the smell in the air had faded a lot, but Ye Zhining smelled a little familiar, as if she had smelled it somewhere. When she saw Dongfang Mo coming, Ye Zhining let him go straight to him, and with the powder on her fingertips, Ye Zhining put it under Dongfang Mo's nose, "Smell it, this smell is a little familiar." ”

Because she didn't know, Ye Zhining didn't think there was anything, but Dongfang Mo smelled what it was. The faint musky scent, if he guessed correctly, should be ......" is an aphrodisiac. ”

"Aphrodisiac?" Ye Zhining was a little surprised, it was actually this kind of thing. Bai Xuehui had been standing at a certain distance from the corpse, according to her thoughts, she didn't want to cause any trouble, it was better to stay away.

Bai Shihuan died in bed, spitting blood from his mouth, and he didn't blink his eyes. At first glance, there were no external injuries on her body, so the cause of death still needs to be investigated, as far as it is now, Bai Shihuan's clothes are disheveled, and there are many signs of tearing, but her pants are still intact under the quilt, and there are no traces of tearing, so she has not been violated.

It's just that, if that's the case, who ordered the aphrodisiac incense? If it was a murderer, then in the end she didn't do anything, if it was Bai Shihuan, it was impossible, a princess, there was no need to use such a trivial thing, and who would she use it on?

"Now that Feihe is not here, I can't ask if I want to ask about the situation, I'm afraid we will have to wait for Feihe to appear before we can know something." Ye Zhining took the handkerchief and wiped her fingers carefully, and suddenly thought that Bai Xuehui had been living not far away, so she ......, "Lord Xue, did you hear any strange sounds last night?" ”

Shaking her head slightly, Bai Xuehui said lightly: "My room is a certain distance from here, if it weren't for the cry like Feihe in the morning, I'm afraid I wouldn't have heard it." ”

Ye Zhining was just curious to ask, most of the time she couldn't hear it, and she also knew.
