Chapter 363: Retreat as Advance

The sudden murder last night caused an uproar in the palace, and everyone began to discuss the identity of the deceased and discuss the cause of the crime, but no one could provide useful clues.

In this case, Liu Li knew the murderer, but he couldn't deal with it directly, and he was helpless, fortunately, the deceased was not kind and pitiful, and several guards who plotted to molest the palace maid again late at night

Because Liu Li paid a lot of money to the family of the deceased, the palace people were red-eyed, and they couldn't hold it back, after all, the money was the sum of their decades of hard work.

There are many people who love money in the palace, and some people have provided some clues to Gao Hai for this reason, and obtained a hundred taels of silver, and people have come to report, expose, and prove one after another.

Liu Li was going to go out of the palace to greet the eldest prince and return to the court, but he was dragged by this incident and couldn't leave, because all the evidence pointed to Jianqiu.

Yukizawa was dressing himself with medicine, and Renko happily pushed the door in and jumped up to Yukizawa's side. "Senior sister, I'll come!"

"What happened to you? Are you coming back?"

Lianzi lowered her head and smiled, "Something happier than this, senior sister, guess what?"

Xue Ze shook her head, not wanting to guess, she remembered what she said to Liu Li last night.

The word "guess" is really difficult, and Xue Ze is not willing to speculate, suspicion, and decency, if you tell each other frankly, then trust if you hide it, then understand.

"There are so many things that happen every day in this world, do you have to be clear about everything? I'm not a person from Lanxin, and I don't care much about this thing that doesn't concern me!"

"Oh, what did Senior Sister say! Someone died in the garden last night, and now the murderer has been found!"

Xue Ze's eyes moved, and his mind trembled: When he and I left, there happened to be a patrol passing by, even if the deceased was found at that time, how could the case be solved so quickly?

"Where did you get the news?"

"This is the witness himself, they also painted a portrait, that person is the shearer! Now, all the evidence points to the shearer, I see how He Yu can escape! Although we can't punish the shear, but it is also a good thing to deal with He Yu first!"

"How do you find out?"

Lianzi thought for a while, and said the wind she had heard. It turned out that those people were a five-person gang, and two of them didn't follow closely, and ran away after glancing at the scene of cutting down and harming people.

This matter shouldn't have been made out, so the two of them took a fancy to the reward given by Liu Li and told the truth, and then they pulled out the matter of cutting autumn and cutting velvet

"It seems that the shearing is not careful!"

"Hey, senior sister, why don't you have compassion for the dead this time?" Lianzi poked Xue Ze's shoulder, "You don't know that those people are innocent of death, right?"

"Listen to your tone, and I'll know!"

Lianzi rolled her eyes and said helplessly: "Am I exposing myself so easily? Okay, those people have done so many bad things, and they have also harmed the life of the little palace maid, this is also a punishment! However, Shearing Velvet happened to come out to do bad things, can this matter be related to Shearing Qiu?"

"What do you want?"

"Of course I want to," Lotus Seed grinned and whispered, "Wouldn't it be nice if we could get rid of the rain by this?"

Xue Ze smiled indifferently, took the medicine bottle, and asked softly: "How do you know that He Yu will be brought down? She has been able to live in the palace for a long time, and she has never been contaminated with half a drop of wind and dust on her body, how can a single sin be a scourge?"

"But it's the emperor who investigates the case!" Lianzi couldn't bear to give up, she still wanted He Yu to get the punishment he deserved. "This case was personally supervised by the emperor, and those people began to fear retribution, but later they still succumbed to the temptation of wealth, and there is a lot of evidence! The emperor was originally handed over to Lord Gao to investigate and handle, but now he has taken over the matter, doesn't he have the intention to punish the crime? If it weren't for He Yu and Shearing Velvet who offended Drunken Yuexuan many times, how could the emperor care so much?"

"You're still thinking too simply!" Yukisawa smiled softly, already understanding everything. "The emperor didn't plan to investigate it in detail at first, so he handed it over to Gao Hai and later took over, and it was precisely because of the matter of Jianqiu that he had to intervene. You think he wants to do what you want, but in fact he wants to protect people, don't be foolish!"

Lianzi was startled, opened her mouth wide but couldn't speak, and her expression became more and more sad and angry.

"How can the emperor help that woman!"

Yukisawa coughed lightly, a little embarrassed. "Don't be like this, this matter is not simple, everyone has their own troubles!"

"How could the emperor be like this? Isn't this He Yu able to help him reconcile the rivers and lakes? Obviously he hates it so much, but he wants to laugh and greet him, not at all like that idiot who is desperate for you! If you think about it carefully, it's better to be a senior brother! If he was here, he would definitely kill that slut without hesitation!"

Xue Ze was stunned for a moment, and said with a little reproach: "Where did you learn to be rude and rude? No matter how bad others are, don't lose your own demeanor." Is it wise to be angry and sad for the sake of others? Besides, you can't look at the surface of everything, and you don't understand the bottom line. In this matter, the emperor must protect the autumn, and we must also back down. You should understand the meaning of retreating, right?!"

"But but, don't we care? This good opportunity should be used to give favors to the emperor?"

"That's not charity, He Yu is so smart, how can he not understand the deep meaning? This step back is better than going further, you have to understand that there are different ways to treat different people, and you have to treat her with the same strategy and depth."

Lianzi frowned, lying on the table listlessly, losing all interest, and asked reluctantly: "Then what good is it for you to do this? I am happy in vain, and so is Mu Fan, and the two of us still think that we can severely punish the wicked!"

"Now the affairs of Xihai Mansion and Kunlun Mountain are being dealt with, Yu Gongzi is also rising, and He Yu's position in the harem is stable, which is a matter that affects the whole body. If you take a step back, everything is easy to say, He Yu will do his best to help, and there will be no action for the time being!"

"Oh"

Xue Ze put the medicine bottle away, took a red lotus golden hairpin from the dresser, compared it with the lotus seed hair, and said with a smile: "Don't think about that, this hairpin is very suitable for you, I'll give it to you!"

"Really?" Lianzi took the hairpin and smiled happily, and suddenly felt refreshed.

"If you let others hear this, don't you say that I treat you stingy?"

"What's the matter? Senior sister is the most generous to me, but it's really rare for someone like this to give jewelry!"

Xue Ze pursed his lips and smiled, "So, you really don't doubt the person who sent the thing and the original intention?"

"Why is this a bit strange?" Lotus Seed touched the texture of the golden hairpin, and then carefully looked at the carving handiwork of the red lotus, and couldn't help but sigh: "Where does this quiet and delicate carving come from?

Xue Ze nodded, "Maybe he expected that you would have a bad heart, this gift has already been prepared! I went to see him last night, and he asked me to hand it over to you, the red lotus of the language was engraved by Feng Xing begging him, and the golden hairpin was his reward."

Lianzi smiled, "The emperor has a heart, I'm afraid that I won't accept it, and he still says this! It seems that I am touched by the blessing of my senior sister! This time, what he is most worried about is that you are too careful! Although you have the same mind, and you see everything thoroughly, but women are still easy to be dissatisfied with these and become jealous I guess, the emperor gave me a hairpin to give you other things, right?"

Yukisawa chuckled softly, sat down sideways, and didn't answer directly. "You seem to have some opinions about the popularity? You don't believe that he begged the emperor to engrave the red lotus, and avoided mentioning it to him. You said that this woman is prone to jealousy, it is you and him"

Lianzi blushed and shook her head, and said in a slurred voice: "I know him, he won't put his mind on these little things." This red lotus is so careful in selecting materials, and the carving is also extremely energetic, not Feng Xing can understand, and he will not beg the emperor to do these things for me."

"How not?"

A gentle and calm male voice came, which made Lianzi tremble, and Xue Ze smiled lightly, as if he had long known that Fengxing would come here.

"Senior sister, you?" Renzi looked at Xue Ze embarrassedly, not daring to turn her face to look at Feng Xing standing in the house.

Yukisawa winked playfully and got up and took a few steps. "Fengxing, you have been out for a long time, and you rarely have time to see lotus seeds. She likes to think cranky, don't you mind! If the two of you have a knot in your heart to meditate, just talk about it, and leave it to you here!"

Feng Xing smiled slightly and arched his hand. "Thank you, Xue Concubine!"

"Senior sister!" Lianzi stood up and asked awkwardly, "Where are you going?"

"Didn't you say that most women like to be jealous?" After Xue Ze finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at Feng Xing, and said with a playful smile: "I'll go to Jianqiu to show the jealousy that this concubine should have, let He Yu weigh it up, and strive to do something good to save the emperor's heart!

Feng Xing bowed to Xue Ze again, and said sincerely: "Feng Xing understands, thank you Xue Concubine for your advice!"

Xue Ze nodded and smiled, and walked out quickly, leaving Lianzi and Fengxing to look at each other with red faces.

At this moment, it seems that both of them have re-examined themselves and each other, including the feelings between the two.

I haven't seen you for a long time, or I haven't been honest with each other and revealed my sincerity for a long time. The two are busy with their own things, and it seems that the relationship has become a kind of thing as a gentleman's friendship, smiling when they meet, and saying goodbye when they leave, there is no other freshness and fun, and there is also a lack of courage and enthusiasm at the beginning.

Get it, be safe, and feel it. can't lift the joy, and is reluctant to give up, the relationship has entered a period of calm and arrogance.

At this stage, the blank time is not thinking about the deep love, but how deep is the other party's love?

This thought brought out complex emotions.

The wind and dust are coming, and the clothes and decorations have not yet been sorted out, with a sense of vicissitudes. When Lianzi saw it, her heart was a little touched, and she seemed to have regained some feeling, which was a feeling of pity, shame, and admiration.

"Why didn't you come here without packing up?"

"I'm afraid that you will wait for a long time, and I am even more afraid that you will have more jealousy and dissatisfaction!"

Lianzi blushed, bowed her head and said nothing, and her emotions spread.

"Don't worry too much, I actually can't stand the lovesickness!" Feng walked forward, hugged the lotus seed, and used his wide and thick chest to accommodate the petite lotus seed, giving her an endless sense of security.

"I" Lianzi wanted to speak several times and stopped, the emotions in my heart were indescribable, but I could only feel his temperature very pleasant.

"I'm sorry, I didn't accompany you well, and even a little affection has to be conveyed by others! You don't believe it, it's really normal! I also know that there are many gaps between us, and we need to fill in a little bit."

Lianzi's eyes were red, the dust in her heart was covered with warm currents, her mind was clear and clear, and she found her joy. "I don't blame you, I'm at fault! I shouldn't have been so indifferent to you in those days. Senior sister is important, and you are also important! When you leave, I know that the pain of longing has begun to torment people again!"

"I'm back, let's get back what we lost, okay?"

"Okay!" Lianzi nodded, hugged Fengxing tightly, snuggled into his arms and cried. "The feelings are so grinding!"

Feng Xing touched the head of the lotus seed and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I will accompany you!" 14
