Xiao Rui walked into the library and saw Yan Xiaoxiao's eyes glazed, and he hurriedly asked, "Yan Xiaoxiao, have you ever found a clue?" ”

Yan Xiaoxiao raised her head when she heard the voice, and her distracted expression returned to normal, and she hurriedly got up and handed back the rubbing pattern to Xiao Rui, and said: "Your Highness, I found it, no wonder I feel familiar with this waist card, it turns out that she is Ye Mei's." ”

"Who is Ye Mei?" Xiao Rui hurriedly asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao said: "Ye Mei entered the palace at the same time as me, and she was also a maid official, and she was a good friend I knew, the day before yesterday she was summoned by the queen and was transferred to the Changchun Palace to serve, I thought it would be time to run, but on the first day of service yesterday, I accidentally broke the treasure that His Majesty rewarded the queen mother, and was punished by the queen mother, and was handed over to the Inner Court Division, which changed her name and expelled the palace. It should have been in a hurry, and she didn't pack her wraps and clothes. Your Highness, what's wrong with her? Why do you have the waist card rubbing on her? ”

In Xiao Rui's mind, a prompt sound sounded, thinking that the first task had been completed, and the true identity of the deceased had been found.

What about the cause of death?

Could it be that because he offended the queen, Xiao Yiheng wanted to take revenge, wait for Ye Mei to leave the palace, and send someone to catch his mansion to punish and torture?

This doesn't make sense at all, Xiao Yiheng categorically won't do this.

Xiao Rui frowned deeply, always feeling that there were still clues that he hadn't caught.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with Ye Mei?" Yan Xiaoxiao's eyes showed panic, and she hurriedly asked.

Xiao Rui sighed and said, "She was killed." ”

"What?" Yan Xiaoxiao stumbled, and hurriedly helped the copywriter so that he didn't fall.

"She is such a good person, how can she be killed? Your Highness, have you ever caught the murderer? Yan Xiaoxiao asked.

Xiao Rui shook his head and said, "This case has been taken care of by Ying Tianfu, and the eldest prince King Jin is also intervening, you can rest assured that the murderer will be brought to justice." In addition, what I asked you today must be kept secret! ”

Yan Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, I understand." ”

Xiao Rui left the library at this time, and Yan Xiaoxiao sent him a few steps to the door. Just as Xiao Rui turned around and left, Xiao Yiheng's surprised voice suddenly came from behind him: "Ye Mei, why are you here?" ”

Xiao Rui's body shook, his steps slammed, and he turned to look at it with an unexpected face.

I saw Xiao Yiheng rushing to the library pavilion, stopping in front of Yan Xiaoxiao, and then with a honey smile on his face, he asked, "Are you on duty in the library pavilion?" ”

Yan Xiaoxiao saw Xiao Yiheng, a little at a loss, and hurriedly took two steps back, wanting to stay away from him, and saluted: "Meet... Meet His Royal Highness the King of Chu! ”

"Ye Mei, is it true that the Inner Court Division bullied you and arranged for you to be on duty in a deserted place like the Library Pavilion! This king will seek justice for you! Xiao Yiheng was indignant, that posture was completely different from the cold arrogance of the past.

Xiao Rui was dumbfounded and watched all this.

The deceased Ye Mei...

He called Yan Xiaoxiao for Ye Mei...

and so enthusiastic about Yan Xiaoxiao...

Xiao Rui seems to know something!

He turned around and walked back, and said with a smile: "Second brother, do you know her too?" ”

When Xiao Yiheng saw Xiao Rui walking back, he immediately blocked in front of Yan Xiaoxiao, like protecting his spoils, and said coldly: "Seventh brother, didn't you leave the palace first?" How did it take so long to get here? Also, do you know Ye Mei? ”

Xiao Rui nodded and said with a smile: "It's not just acquaintance, it's a lot of relationship, isn't it, Ye Mei?" ”

Yan Xiaoxiao bypassed Xiao Yiheng and said respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness the Seven." ”

Xiao Yiheng's face froze, his eyes were filled with anger, and he asked, "Oh? How did you meet? The seventh brother has never entered the palace, could it be that he met outside the palace? ”

Xiao Rui said: "Second brother, did you remember that before I opened the mansion, I left the capital to suppress bandits without permission, and it was a coincidence that I saved Ye Mei and her family from the bandits." I just came out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and I accidentally saw her, so I naturally want to talk about it, isn't it Ye Mei? ”

He bit the word "Ye Mei" a little harder, Yan Xiaoxiao heard Xiao Rui's intentions, nodded and said: "His Royal Highness King Xian is the little woman's life-saving benefactor, if it weren't for His Royal Highness, I would have been scattered by now." ”

Xiao Yiheng noticed Yan Xiaoxiao's eyes looking at Xiao Rui, and thought of the girl praying for blessings that night, including benefactors!

His heart suddenly felt as if it had been torn open, as if his beloved treasure had fallen into the hands of others, and he was allowed to be played with by others, and he was played with in front of him.

Jealousy burned brightly, making it difficult for him to stay calm.

Xiao Yiheng stared at Xiao Rui, without hiding the anger in his eyes, and said, "That's really thanks to the seventh brother, otherwise such a beautiful woman would really be a disaster in the world." Isn't the seventh brother going out of the palace? Still not leaving? ”

Xiao Rui nodded, and said deliberately: "I want to go, and I suddenly remembered something else!" ”

After that, Xiao Rui took two steps forward, stopped in front of Yan Xiaoxiao, and said with concern: "The weather is getting cooler, wear more clothes, if you are not used to staying in the library pavilion, wait for this king to tell me when he asks for peace, and I will find a way to help you transfer to other palaces." ”

Yan Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Rui blankly, and was shocked by his sudden gentleness, her pretty face was immediately ruddy like Caixia, she lowered her head shyly, her jade hands were intertwined, and she didn't dare to look directly at Xiao Rui.

"Hmm." For a moment, Yan Xiaoxiao snorted like a mosquito.

Xiao Rui's afterglow swept towards Xiao Yiheng, only to see the muscles on his cheeks trembling violently, believing that he was gritting his teeth, and the fists in his sleeves must be clenched.

"Seventh brother, in the palace, no matter how good the place is, it can't compare to Changchun Palace. This king will ask the queen mother to adjust the leaf eyebrows into the Changchun Palace, and be the head of the female officials, so he won't bother the seventh brother. Xiao Yiheng said.

Yan Xiaoxiao hurriedly refused: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the status of the slave is humble, and she can't bear the fear, how dare you bother His Highness to care so much?" ”

In the face of her refusal, Xiao Yiheng was willing to be cheap, and said in a gentle voice: "It's okay, this king is willing." ”

Xiao Rui confirmed the conjecture in his heart even more, but this conjecture made him feel incredible.

His Royal Highness the dignified King of Chu would fall in love with a female official in the palace? Even in order to occupy, operate under the pretense of the queen's hand?

"Ding Dong..."

The prompt sound came to mind again, Xiao Rui didn't check the content, and he knew that he guessed correctly, and he had already found out the cause of Ye Mei's death.

In this way, Ye Mei's death was all because Yan Xiaoxiao borrowed her name, so she was designed out of the palace and brought to the Chu Palace. Xiao Yiheng hurriedly returned to the house to enjoy the beauty, but found that it was not Yan Xiaoxiao, who insulted her in anger and strangled her?

No, no, since the wrong person was caught, then he wouldn't insult Ye Mei, he must be disgusted and didn't want to touch it, could it be that the two guards did it?

Not good!

Xiao Rui suddenly realized that the two guards were likely to be more than lucky.

After thinking about it, Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Yiheng, and knew in his heart that he couldn't let him transfer Yan Xiaoxiao to Changchun Palace, once he entered, he would be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.

"The second brother is willing, but the transfer is the job of the Inner Court Division, and it depends on whether she is willing or not, she is unwilling, is the second brother still forced? The younger brother couldn't understand what the second brother meant by being so eager? If this word reaches the ears of his father, it will be extremely unfavorable to the second brother. After all, she still chooses the status of a waiter. Xiao Rui said deliberately.

Xiao Yiheng's face turned cold, and he snorted lightly: "Ye Mei and I hit it off at first sight, and we intend to accept her as a righteous sister, even if this word reaches the ears of my father, my father will not blame it." ”

Although he said so, Xiao Yiheng didn't mention the matter of transferring Yan Xiaoxiao again, because he knew that he couldn't behave too abnormally, and once he was noticed by Emperor Xia, it would be difficult to do.

"Two highnesses, I still have something to do, so I'll retire first." Yan Xiaoxiao felt the tension of the atmosphere, and didn't want Xiao Rui to continue to entangle with Xiao Yiheng, so she took the initiative to say.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Xiao Yiheng smiled: "You are busy." ”

Just when Yan Xiaoxiao was about to enter the library pavilion, Xiao Rui suddenly said: "Yan Xiaoxiao, don't borrow your friend's name in the future, although your name is a little unpleasant, but after all, it is your own name." I deceived the king before, and now it seems that I also deceived the king of Chu. ”

Xiao Yiheng was slightly startled, and hurriedly looked at Yan Xiaoxiao.

Yan Xiaoxiao hurriedly apologized: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the slave maid is joking for a while, please forgive me." ”

Xiao Yiheng asked, "What is your real name?" ”

"Yan Xiaoxiao! The face of the face, the size is small! Yan Xiaoxiao said respectfully.

Xiao Yiheng was a little annoyed, but when she saw Yan Xiaoxiao's scared look, she was not angry at all, after all, she was abrupt that night, and it was understandable that she was wary and did not dare to tell her real name. So nodding, Yan Xiaoxiao turned around and entered the library and closed the Zhu Gate.

Xiao Yiheng's gaze shifted from the closed door to Xiao Rui, and then walked straight from Xiao Rui's side with an expressionless face, once again recovering his former cold arrogance.

Xiao Rui stood there, watching him leave, taking a deep breath and having a headache.

What now?

……

The matter in front of the Library Pavilion unsurprisingly reached the ears of Emperor Xia.

After all, there were forbidden troops all around, and it was difficult for the three of them to talk for so long in front of the library pavilion without attracting attention.

However, Hai Dafu got little information, and the forbidden army couldn't get close, so he couldn't get the specific content of the chat between the three people.

Emperor Xia was reading a book and didn't seem to care about it, but when Hai Dafu thought that Emperor Xia didn't care, Emperor Xia suddenly gave an edict: "Send a message to the Inner Court Division, and summon the female official of the Library Pavilion to serve in the Yang Xin Palace, and temporarily designate as the female official who holds the pen." ”

Hai Dafu said respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

The oracle immediately reached the Inner Division.

After Zhao Gaogao, the original head of the Inner Court, was killed with a cane, the deputy Gonggong Lu successfully ascended to the throne.

After receiving His Majesty's instructions, he immediately arranged for someone to arrange it, and when he had just made arrangements, King Jin also entered the palace, came directly to the Inner Court Division, and took out the waist card of the deceased Ye Mei.

Because the queen had confessed, Gonggong Lu replied truthfully: "Ye Mei, the maid who was selected, broke the imperial treasures, and was severely punished from the palace by the queen." ”

King Jin got Ye Mei's true identity, but he still had no clue if he wanted to find out whether she was the cause of death.

Now that he has entered the palace, King Jin naturally wants to visit Emperor Xia, and when chatting, he will naturally talk about this murder.

Near noon, King Jin asked to withdraw from the palace, and Yan Xiaoxiao had already received an order to come to the palace to serve.

Hai Dafu arranged for a eunuch to teach Yan Xiaoxiao the rules, he was on duty in the Palace of Heart Cultivation, and he must be careful, otherwise he would anger His Majesty, and nine lives would not be enough to cut off his head.

Yan Xiaoxiao was both frightened and scared, the library was staying well, why was she suddenly transferred to the Heart Cultivation Palace? Still a pen-wielding officer?

The female official with the pen is not an official position, but serves His Majesty, grinding and writing, in the past, Hai Dafu did it for her, and abruptly let a female official take on it, not only Hai Dafu was curious, but also the other eunuchs and eunuchs who served were stunned.

Women can't be in this position!
