He said this sentence with a little confidence, and he was quite regretful at the end of the sentence.

"Oh? That's a shame. Xiao Ba stared at Hong Liangcai for a long time and said slowly.

Follow Lang Zhong to the square, there is no destination, now it is possible where people are, Hong Yu will not be able to come back for a while.

"Princess Mingyue is captivating the country and the city, and she still wanted to be a cousin before, and Li Gongzi's appearance must not be much worse. Coincidentally, my sister is a beauty-lover, and when she was a child, she once said that she would not marry if she was not as good-looking. Speaking of this, Xiaoba smiled again, but his eyes did not have the slightest warmth, not missing every expression on Hong Liangcai's face, "I met Princess Mingyue on the street before, and shouted that she would not marry, but Princess Mingyue is a woman, not a man, how can I marry her!" ”

Hong Liangcai's expression froze for a moment, looking a little unnatural, but he was still smiling on his face.

"It's just ......"

Chihiro didn't expect that her occasional was taken by Hachi as a sword envoy, she pursed her lips and said in her heart: In the future, I will definitely find someone more handsome than you to take with you every day to anger you.

Thinking of this, her face turned red, and in Hong Liangcai's eyes, it was like her sister being teased by her brother's words.

"It's a pity that Li Gongzi is not here!" Hachi pretended to sigh.

The implication couldn't be more obvious.

"It's also that my son Hongyu is not blessed, and besides, Miss is so expensive, our family Hongyu can't afford it." Hong Liangcai smiled wryly, holding Chihiro high.

Chihiro felt a little awkward, she was complimenting her like this, wasn't she?

Xiao Hachi nodded, feeling that there was no need to continue digging deeper into this problem, and his fingers knocked on the table in front of him, and his face suddenly froze.

"Actually, there is another matter for our brother and sister to come here this time," Xiao Ba paused and continued, "I wonder if Princess Mingyue had any enemies before, or had a grudge against others?" ”

Talking about the assassination, Hong Liangcai's face immediately turned cloudy, and he thought seriously for a while before he replied: "The princess is well-behaved and sensible, and she rarely even goes out on weekdays, so I don't know who will harm her." ”

"Did the princess accidentally offend any nobleman in the emperor?"

It's not that Hachi and Chihiro haven't thought about this question, but they quickly denied it.

Obviously, the person who bought the murder knew the gender of Princess Mingyue, otherwise the two men in black would not have killed and set fire to each other.

However, Princess Mingyue was not found to have her real gender in the beauty pageant, and later moved to the princess's mansion, and those who circled around the princess's mansion would not find out.

"The princess is cautious and has not offended anyone in the imperial capital." Hachi shook his head and told the truth.

"That's weird." Hong Liangcai muttered, lost in thought.

For a moment, the three of them did not speak.

"Did you have a grudge with someone before we adopted her?" Hong Liangcai thought about it and spoke first, but his tone was very floating, and he had no confidence.

If you count the days, the days that Princess Mingyue and Hong Liangcai and his wife have been together for less than 3 months, and the possibility of wanting to make a feud with someone in Kushui Village in such a short period of time is too low.

However, it is not impossible that the probability is low.

Since Princess Mingyue did not object to the two of them coming here to investigate, it showed that he had a vague suspicion in his heart.

"It's not out of the question." Xiaoba looked at Hong Liangcai and smiled.

The time was almost up, and the two decided to take their leave.

When Hong Liangcai sent Hachi and Chihiro to the door, Hachi instructed: "If you think of something, you can send someone to the Fulai Inn to find us at any time, and our brother and sister will stay here for a while." ”

Hong Liangcai nodded again and again, agreeing.

When Hachi and Chihiro's carriage disappeared at the end of the street, he wiped the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead and closed the door himself.

There is a lot of information from Hong Liangcai, but there are also many doubts.

The old man's words were mixed, and none of the problems they had suspected before were solved, but new ones were added.

Chihiro sketches on rice paper, listing the information and doubts they have gotten.

At present, they still don't know who the murderer behind it is, but Hong Liangcai's motive can basically be ruled out.

If Princess Mingyue died, for Hong Liangcai, he would only be able to enjoy a few more years of wealth, besides, his concern for Mingyue was true, and he didn't know that Princess Mingyue was his daughter, not a niece!

The thought of her daughter gave rise to a chill in Chihiro's heart. How could she forget that this old man still wanted to marry Princess Mingyue to her son?

As for the various doubts in Hong Liangcai's words, Chihiro felt the need to visit again and let him explain honestly.

Hachi shook his head at this.

"It's not time to torture a confession yet. From what I observed, he really didn't know who the mastermind was. ”

"But why is he always evasive in his words, as if he has done something wrong?" Chihiro is in a commotion, Hong Liangcai's performance is too strange, "It stands to reason that he shouldn't be unclear about Mingyue's gender?" ”

Even if this Princess Mingyue was adopted by Hong Liangcai's brother, then Hong Liangcai shouldn't know whether Mingyue is a nephew or a niece.

"Is it possible that Princess Mingyue is lying to him? He deliberately concealed his gender? Chihiro suggested another possibility.

"No, compared to a daughter, it is more convenient for a man to go out. Moreover, Hong Liangcai shouldn't know Mingyue's gender, adding Ding to the family is a big deal, even if he and his brother are far away, his brother should write to inform him. ”

"yes." Chihiro nodded in agreement.

"Do you think he knows the gender of Princess Mingyue, so he speaks in a slurred and secretive way?" Chihiro said as she made notes on paper.

"There's a big possibility. When I mentioned the gender of Princess Mingyue, his expression was unnatural for a moment. Hachi nodded.

"Then if that's the case, why did he say he wanted Mingyue to be his daughter-in-law?"

Hachi frowned and stopped talking.

Chihiro thought for a while, but he really didn't have a clue, and said angrily: "Otherwise, let's repair a book and ask Mingyue well, why don't you tell us anything?" ”

"Nonsense!" Xiao Hachi glanced at her disapprovingly, "If Princess Mingyue really wants to tell us, there is a chance before we leave." ”

"I'm angry just thinking about it," Chihiro snapped and dropped the brush in her hand, "We are so dedicated to helping him, even if he is not grateful, it will be more difficult for us to take hostages and conceal the news." ”

"There will be a day when the mystery will be solved. Let's go around Kushui Village tomorrow and see if there are any clues. ”

"Just let Hong Liangcai go?" Chihiro is unwilling.
