Chapter 710: Who is the Murderer?
Because of Xiao Huanxi's poison, Zhong Xiaoshu threw himself on his daughter, so he didn't have much mood to pay attention to Xia Zhitao's affairs.
In the post station outside the palace, Qin Xiang heard the people below say that Xiao Huanxi was poisoned.
said that it was done by a maid named Xia Zhitao next to Zhong Xiaoshu, and immediately frowned and wanted to enter the palace.
Zhong Xiaoshu didn't sleep well these days because he was worried about Xiao Huanxi, and his spirit didn't seem to be very good.
When Qin Xiang saw Zhong Xiaoshu like this, he immediately took her hand with concern and cared about her.
"Are you okay? Is there anything wrong with Xiao Huanxi? ”
Zhong Xiaoshu nodded, "The poison has been resolved, just recuperate for a few more days." ”
Qin Xiang nodded when he heard this, and said some other words of comfort.
It wasn't until the end that Qin Xiang asked about Xia Zhitao's disposal.
Although Zhong Xiaoshu felt that this Qin Xiang was weird today, he didn't say anything, Qin Xiang thought she was soft-hearted and hesitated when he saw her like this.
"She dares to treat Xiao Huanxi like this, if she is ruthless, maybe she will attack you, or even Yuanyuan.
Such a ruthless person, do you dare to keep her by your side? ”
Qin Xiang looked at her with a frown, and Zhong Xiaoshu glanced at her silently.
"There is no definite evidence to prove that Xia Zhitao did this, this ......"
She was a little embarrassed, Qin Xiang didn't say anything more when she saw her like this, and after chatting about other things, she left.
As soon as Qin Xiang walked on his front foot, Zhong Xiaoshu felt a little weird in his heart.
She didn't say who the murderer was, how could Qin Xiang know that it was Xia Zhitao who was arrested, and she was so eager to persuade her to deal with Xia Zhitao.
Zhong Xiaoshu wanted to do something wrong, and then sent two secret guards to secretly follow Qin Xiang.
The dark guard followed him for two or three days without noticing anything unusual.
Just when Zhong Xiaoshu thought she was thinking too much, the secret guard suddenly came late at night to report that Qin Xiang had gone out.
Qin Xiang is not from Xichuan, and she is not familiar with the capital, where is she going back so late?
Zhong Xiaoshu only felt that his brows kept jumping.
"Let people follow, be careful, don't get discovered."
Now it is extraordinary, Xiao Huanxi has just been poisoned, and Qin Xiang entered the palace to persuade her to dispose of Xia Zhitao.
It's strange how you think about this behavior, not to mention that now she's out late at night.
Zhong Xiaoshu didn't dare to continue to think about it, she shook her head, so she had to let the dark guard keep an eye on it all the time, not to startle the snake.
If she really misunderstood, she wouldn't tear her face.
It was almost dawn that the Dark Guard returned.
said that he saw Qin Xiang meeting with a mysterious man, because he was afraid of being discovered, so the secret guard didn't get too close, so he couldn't hear what they were saying.
Zhong Xiaoshu's hand on the table subconsciously tightened, and she pursed her lips that were a little dry.
"Don't act rashly for the time being, do everything that is opportunistic."
Just because of a meeting, she suspected that the other party was poisoned, which is not credible at all, and she wants to investigate it clearly.
She recalled Xia Zhitao's cry again, and her mood was very complicated for a while.
The secret guard got the order, so he didn't startle the snake, he was still guarding in secret, and the day after the secret guard came to report, Qin Xiang entered the palace again.
As soon as she entered the room, her eyes were the first to look at Xiao Huanxi who was lying on the bed.
Zhong Xiaoshu silently paid attention to her dynamics, and when she saw her action, her fingers trembled twice.
The doubts in my heart slowly came up.
Sure enough, Qin Xiang mentioned the words of disposing of Xia Zhitao as usual.
With a look of wanting to do it herself, it's really easy to believe that she really thinks about herself.
But Zhong Xiaoshu has experienced so many emergencies along the way, and she began to become a little suspicious.
Looking at Qin Xiang's appearance, she even had some doubts about whether the decision she made was right.
After Qin Xiang left the palace, he went out again in the middle of the night.
When the dark guard sent the news, Zhong Xiaoshu only felt that his heart was being pulled hard.
The hand under her sleeve slowly tightened.
She forced herself to endure the feeling that she wanted to ask immediately, and kept watch for two more days.
Sure enough, Qin Xiang really entered the palace again, and the two of them still just talked and dispersed.
But this time it was different, as soon as Qin Xiang walked on the front foot, Zhong Xiaoshu followed on the back foot.
The secret guard took her to the place where Qin Xiang, who had been squatting, and the mysterious man and hid her.
After waiting for the hour, Qin Xiang went out of the post station again, and soon after she arrived at the place, a dark shadow appeared not far away.
The two stood opposite each other, not knowing what they were talking about.
Zhong Xiaoshu held his breath and listened carefully for a while, only then did he vaguely hear a little bit, they were discussing Xiao Huanxi.
"The little princess has been suffering from fever recently, and she was found to be poisoned by the imperial doctor.
Now that the poison has almost been resolved, I went to the palace again today......"
Hearing Qin Xiang say this, Zhong Xiaoshu only felt that the blood in his body was gathered together, and his brain was also buzzing.
Did she really do it?
Reason disappeared in an instant behind Zhong Xiaoshu's head, and she rushed out of the hiding place.
The two people who were talking, when they saw Zhong Xiaoshu who suddenly appeared, both of them were stunned in place.
"You, why are you here?"
Qin Xiang looked at Zhong Xiaoshu with a surprised expression, but Zhong Xiaoshu didn't have the time to look at her.
She stared at the hooded man with a fire in her eyes.
Judging by this figure, it should be a man, and she doesn't seem to have provoked anyone recently.
She wanted to see what kind of person was so ruthless, even a child would not let go.
As he spoke, he was about to lift his hat, but Qin Xiang saw that the situation was not good, and immediately went to stop Zhong Xiaoshu.
"Xiao Shu, what are you doing, calm down, you listen to my explanation!"
Zhong Xiaoshu waved her hand away and glared at her fiercely.
"Qin Xiang, I don't think there's anything that can't stand you, right?
Even if I did something wrong, you just said it, why are you so ruthless to a child! ”
She decided in her heart that it was Qin Xiang who united with outsiders to poison Xiao Huanxi, so naturally she couldn't listen to anything.
Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment, completely unaware of what she was talking about.
"How could I have poisoned the little princess, Xiao Shu, haven't you already caught the murderer? Why did you still wronged me for no reason. ”
The duty of the secret guard is to protect Zhong Xiaoshu's safety, but now Qin Xiang and the mysterious man are not murderous.
The dark guard was not easy to make a move for a while, so he had to stare vigilantly at the man wearing the hood, in case he hurt the queen.
"You're not a murderer?
Can you explain why you come here to see this person every night after entering the palace, and what are you talking about? ”
Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment by her question, she wanted to answer, but the words came to her mouth and she swallowed them back.
She glanced at the man standing next to her, pursed the corners of her lips and did not speak.
