In the Chuxiu Palace, the prince was seriously looking at the minister's excerpts.

He has been helping his father deal with government affairs for several years, and he is easily unknown to outsiders, especially the idiot of the second prince, and when he is closed in Chuxiu Palace, he is still because he is weak and sick.

The palace maid who was originally called Taoxi, and was later renamed Ruyi by the prince, walked in, she was not very old, so she was dressed as an aunt, and said softly: "The prince, the little prince Yan asks to see." ”

"Oh? What did he come to do? ”

Since Yan Xiuyu successfully proposed to marry Yan Qingge, the crown prince had never seen him. Not only is Yan Xiuyu avoiding the prince, but the prince also has the intention to avoid Yan Xiuyu.

As long as it is a human being, it has seven emotions and six desires.

The prince knew very well that he had resentment and jealousy towards Yan Xiuyu in his heart, and these two feelings were very strong. He understood that the Yanwang Mansion was the minister of the humerus of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and his status was special, so it was best not to take revenge for personal gain. In this way, it is the best choice not to see.

"Little Lord Yan brought a gift, saying that it was for Concubine Yun's side." Ruyi replied.

"Really?" The prince's eyes darkened. After Hou Jingjing entered the Chuxiu Palace, she quickly made Yun Qianqian deflated everywhere. In order to achieve balance in his house and prevent any family from becoming powerful, he can only "spoil" Yun Qianqian even more, and does not hesitate to let her get pregnant.

Although this child was his first child, the prince knew in his heart that he would not have any feelings for this child.

"Call him in." The prince put the folds on the table in a suitcase, stepped forward obediently, and put the fold box in an inconspicuous place on the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, looking no different from ordinary ornaments.

When Yan Xiuyu came in, the table in front of the prince was empty, as if the prince was just sitting idle.

As soon as he entered the door, Yan Xiuyu felt that the air was suddenly hot, and charcoal had begun to burn in the copper furnace in the main hall. It's only mid-August, and even if the hall is extremely shady, there is no need to burn charcoal in broad daylight. No wonder there are rumors outside that the prince's body is getting weaker and weaker.

"What is the matter with Little Prince Yan coming to Chuxiu Palace?" The prince said with a smile, stepped forward to help Yan Xiuyu, who was saluting, and pulled him to sit down with the same intimate attitude as his own brother.

Ruyi stood quietly beside him to serve, his gaze drifting over Yan Xiuyu's body.

Yan Xiuyu was wearing a pure cyan autumn coat, with pale sky blue trim on the cuffs and placket, which added a bit of elegance to his tall and sturdy figure. His face is like a flower, like a bright moon, shining brightly.

Such a beauty, the most beautiful lady in the palace is not as beautiful as him, but it is a pity that she is a man.

Ruyi couldn't help but sigh in her heart, the young lady of the Yan family she served at the beginning was really a blessing. Not only is the prince fond of her, but the person he will marry in the future is also such a romantic talent.

Yan Xiuyu said: "Today, the ministers are here, and there is something important to inform His Royal Highness the Prince." A few days ago, there was a murder case in the Yan Mansion, and it was investigated and found on the daughter of the Yan family. The minister did not dare to make his own decisions, this is the transcript of this case. With that, Yan Xiuyu took out a thick roll of paper from his arms and handed it to the prince.

The prince took the paper, opened the file with his thin and slender fingers, his sparse and long eyelashes drooped slightly, and he read the transcript roughly in a few clicks, including the letter from Yan Qing's singer.

The prince once asked someone to collect Yan Qingge's ink in the White Deer Academy, and he was very familiar with her handwriting, and when he saw the handwriting, his fingers couldn't help but stop hidden.

He finished reading the records, held them in his hand, and said, "Thank you for telling me that I will deal with this matter alone." Does Little Prince Yan have anything else to do? "I actually want to leave the transcript and make it look like a send-off.

Yan Xiuyu said: "Don't you need to return these records to the Criminal Department?" ”

"No, I'll deal with it." The prince smiled brightly.

Yan Xiuyu sighed in his heart, it seems that the prince has made up his mind to protect Yan Shuyu, Sister Qingge will definitely be disappointed, he will immediately go to Yan's house to comfort Sister Qingge.

Before Yan Xiuyu said goodbye and left, the prince picked out the page of letter written by Yan Qingge in the transcript, admired it, put it away carefully, and threw the rest of the transcript into a ball and threw it into the copper furnace burning hot carbon. In an instant, those pieces of paper that could prove Yan Shuyu's sin were gray and charcoal, and there was no time to see the light of day again.

After leaving the palace, Yan Xiuyu went straight to Yan's house.

When I arrived at the door of Yan's house, I saw that the people from the Xinguo Mansion who had surrounded the Yan Mansion were gone, and it was so clean.

Yan Xiuyu stepped forward puzzled and knocked on the door, the concierge of the Yan family saw him, smiled on his face, and said loudly: "Little Lord Yan, it's you!" Our eldest lady didn't go out today. ”

"When did the people from the Xinguo Mansion leave?"

"I've been gone for a while."

"Why did they go, you know?" Yan Xiuyu asked. He estimated that the withdrawal of the Xinguo Mansion was unlikely to be due to the discovery of stolen goods.

"It was the Duchess in their house who called someone to give orders, and the little ones don't know."

Yan Xiuyu asked for a long time before he walked into Yan's Mansion and walked towards Yan Qingge's Qingxing Garden.

Halfway through, Yan Xiuyu smelled a strange smell, which came to his nose, and he almost took a detour. The smell was vaguely familiar, and it seemed to be the smell of corpses.

He chuckled in his heart, and the further he went, the stronger the smell became. When I was about to arrive at Qingxingyuan, I saw Yan Shuyu dressed in a silk robe, dressed in linen and filial piety, walking on the road with a large group of maids, among whom seven or eight maidservants worked together to carry the coffin with a pole and followed in the middle.

The stench that Yan Xiuyu smelled was coming from the coffin.

Looking at the direction they are traveling, where is it not Qingxingyuan?

Yan Xiuyu immediately understood Yan Shuyu's intentions, she was going to carry Aunt Hai's corpse and go to the gate of Qingxing Garden to block the door. She doesn't have a good time herself, and she doesn't want others to be happy.

No one saw Yan Xiuyu, who was single and caught up from behind.

Mrs. Wang used to be a close confidant of Aunt Hai, but she was not trusted by Yan Shuyu. After Aunt Hai's death, Mrs. Wang's life was not as good as before. Fortunately, she got a letter yesterday, and some people said that they saw Su Xin in Qingxingyuan, and she gave Yan Shuyu another trick, and came up with a "good" idea, Yan Shuyu immediately looked at her, no, even walking is willing to let her old woman help her walk, this is a unique honor.

Yan Xiuyu didn't care about the bad smell, grabbed it in a few steps, stood in front of the person, brushed it, pulled out the long sword in his hand, and slashed it at the head of a mother-in-law who was helping her beside Yan Shuyu.

The sword was as sharp as clay, and the maid who followed behind did not stop, and before she could see clearly what was going on in front of her, she saw that the body of the princess was divided into two halves, and fell down, and her internal organs were scattered all over the ground.

Only then did the blood gush out, and most of it splashed on Yan Shuyu's body, and in an instant, Yan Shuyu became a bloody person.

"Ahh

"Help! Kill! ”

The screams of the maids came and went, and they scattered and fled, and even the maids who carried the coffin couldn't care about Aunt Hai's corpse, and threw the coffin to the ground, running faster than anything else.

Yan Shuyu's body was covered with hot blood, and in the crook of her arm, there was also one arm of Mrs. Wang. She turned her head and looked down the arm, only to see that half of Mrs. Wang's bloody body was pressing on her strangely. And the terrifying half of Mrs. Wang's face still had a terrifying flattering smile that was confiscated back.

Yan Shuyu didn't even have time to scream, so she fell to the ground softly and fainted.

Yan Xiuyu looked at Yan Shuyu with disgust, stood up, his sword was horizontal, his voice was like thunder, and said, "Who drive it away!" ”

This shouting and scolding made those maids stop their tracks.

"Come here!" Yan Xiuyu raised his sword in a cold voice.

Don't look at Yan Shuyu's embarrassment, and Mrs. Wang's death is so miserable, but Yan Xiuyu's green clothes are not stained with any blood. The same is true of his sword, as bright as ever.

Those handmaidens came to Yan Xiuyu in horror, and they all felt that when the end of the world came, the sword in Yan Xiuyu's hand did not recognize people, and if he cut it down, he would definitely die.

"What's going on?" Yan Xiuyu's long sword pointed at the coffin.

"Yes...... Be...... It's Aunt Hai who has been suspended for seven days today, Second Miss...... The second lady asked us to carry the coffin to the various courtyards of the Yan family, and asked the ladies and aunts to send it away, and we came first...... First came to the Blue Star Garden. This...... It's not there yet......" replied a servant girl who was scared like a quail.

"Humph! Do you think I believe this statement? Let's be honest! Otherwise, she'll be your end. Yan Xiuyu pointed at the horizontal sword, and the tip of the sword was towards the princess on the ground.

The maid was so frightened that she kowtowed, and she didn't dare to stammer, and her voice became like a cannon: "Little prince, the slave doesn't dare, the slave doesn't know much, the slave and the maid heard that the second lady wants to take this opportunity to carry the aunt to the door of Qingxingyuan, and then excuse that she can't lift it, let the coffin stop in Qingxingyuan for a few days, and let the people there also taste the aunt's power." The slave and the maid are forced, the slave and the maid don't dare, the slave and the maid don't dare anymore! ”

Listening to the maid's words, Yan Xiuyu snorted coldly and said, "How to carry the coffin, how to carry it back." Also, clean up the dirt on the floor. ”

After finishing speaking, Yan Xiuyu turned around and left, heading towards Qingxing Garden.

The people of Qingxing Yuan obviously didn't know about the crisis that almost happened to them just now, and when they saw Yan Xiuyu coming, the group of little maids chattered happily around Yan Xiuyu. Because Yan Xiuyu has come many times, they know that Yan Xiuyu is good at talking and handsome, and he often sends good things to Qingxingyuan, and their good impression of him has skyrocketed.

Xunshuang pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, don't surround my uncle, tell him to go in, the eldest lady has seen it, be careful of your skin." ”

Yan Xiuyu hugged him into the study, Yan Qingge didn't expect Yan Xiuyu to come, so he immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Why are you idle today?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, her nose twitched twice and said, "Strange, what kind of smell is this, weird." ”

Yan Xiuyu hurriedly took a step back, not wanting Yan Qingge to know about the bloody scene that had just happened, and said, "I just came back from the Criminal Department, and I got the smell there. ”

Yan Qingge saw him hiding away, smiled and beckoned, and said, "What's the matter, I'm not a squeamish person, you come over to talk." What are you going to do in the Criminal Department? ”

Yan Xiuyu told Yan Qingge the news of his entry into the palace, and said that he went to the Criminal Department to return the record, so that he could get the words back.

Yan Qingge sighed and said, "The prince said he was in charge of this matter?" It can be seen that he is unwilling to punish his sister-in-law. That's a real bargain for her. ”

Yan Xiuyu smiled: "It's hard to say." ”

Yan Qingge was stunned for a moment, and said, "How can you say this?" ”
