Ye Qiao snorted and took the rice porridge on Jinpa's cheeks, pouted and said, "Sister Gu, why are you spraying my face, people have to wash their faces again." ”

Ling Ningshuang covered the corners of her mouth and smiled very hard.

Gu Ningyan glared at Ling Ningshuang to warn her not to laugh, and then apologized to the little girl, "Ye Qiao is embarrassed, I want to tell you, don't follow Ling Ningshuang in the future, some words can't be repeated, do you know?" ”

Although Ye Qiao didn't know what not to say and what to say, she was very obedient, "I know, I won't talk about dry firewood in the future." ”

Ahem! Ling Ningshuang pretended to cough to cover her smiling face, this Ye Qiao was really cute.

"Don't hold it back, you'll get internal injuries." Gu Ningyan continued to pick up the porridge and eat, reminding Ling Ningshuang that she could laugh.

"Haha..."Ling Ningshuang heard her words, so she laughed insolently.

Gu Ningyan glanced at her, and then looked at Ye Qiao, "Ye Qiao, how about Sister Gu invite you to watch the play today?" Do you want to go. ”

"Okay, then let's eat quickly, and then hurry up, so that we can occupy a good position." As soon as Ye Qiao heard Sister Gu's words, she immediately forgot what had just happened.

Gu Ningyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, if she didn't divert Ye Qiao's attention anymore, I really didn't know what else this girl could say.

Wei Qianlan didn't want to get involved in these women's topics, "You eat slowly, I'll be busy first." ”

"Go ahead." Gu Ningyan waved his hand to let him leave as soon as possible, he was also in a substantial danger.

Breakfast ended at Gu Ningyan's urging, and the three of them came to the opera garden all the way.

They came early, but what they didn't expect was that the theater was almost full of friends.

"Sister Gu, I'm not wrong, isn't there a lot of people." Ye Qiao pointed to the black heads around him and said.

Gu Ningyan pursed the corners of his mouth and agreed, "There are really a lot of people. ”

"Stop talking, quickly find a high position to sit down and talk." Ling Ningshuang looked upstairs and downstairs, there was an empty table on the second floor, and she pointed and motioned for the two of them to hurry up.

The three of them stepped onto the second floor, but unfortunately, the people who came up on the other side caused the three of them to regret choosing to watch the play from a high place

"Isn't this Aunt Lanhuang?" The fourth prince, Wei Yifan, also saw the three oncoming people.

Gu Ningyan smiled indifferently and said, "I didn't expect it to be so coincidental, the fourth prince and Miss She." "At first glance, the two of them are so blessed, as the saying goes, it's really good, like things gather, the two of them are a perfect match.

She Lianhua's face was obviously stunned when she saw Princess Lan and them, but she quickly recovered and greeted her with a smile, "Princess Lan, Princess Tanglin and Miss Ye are also here to see the play?" ”

"yes." Ye Qiao smiled sweetly and replied to She Lianhua's words.

"It's better to meet by chance and sit together." She Lianhua made an inviting gesture at the three of them.

The fourth prince also followed She Lianhua's words and spoke, "Let's go with Aunt Lan." "Don't give Aunt Lan a reason to refuse at all.

Gu Ningyan couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed, "Okay." After speaking, she beckoned Ye Qiao and Ling Ningshuang to sit next to her.

After a few people were seated, the drama in the opera garden also began.

The moment Ye Qiao saw the person come out, she excitedly grabbed Gu Ning beside her

Smoke's arm, "Sister Gu, look, the one in Tsing Yi is the anti-string of pity flowers I told you, isn't it beautiful?" After speaking, Ye Qiao didn't forget to say to She Lianhua, "Miss She, his pity flower is not your lotus." ”

She Lianhua smiled politely back at Ye Qiao, "Miss Ye is so interesting to say." ”

"Indeed, Miss Ye seems to like the Imperial City very much, how about marrying into the Imperial City? This prince can help you find a good in-law. The eyes of the four princes with a pair of thief-like eyes were fixed on Ye Qiao's body.

Ye Qiao was stunned by the words of the fourth prince, and didn't know how to answer at all.

However, Gu Ningyan and Ling Ningshuang both understood the purpose of the four princes, wanted to use the King of Jinyang, and wanted to use the strength of the King of Jinyang.

"Fourth prince, Ye Qiao is still a child, it's too early to tell her this."

The fourth prince looked at Princess Lan, who interrupted with words, even though he was angry in his heart, his face was smiling. "What Aunt Lan said is very right."

"Don't make noise, watch quietly." Ling Ningshuang opened her mouth in disgust to interrupt the crooked heart of the four princes.

For Ling Ningshuang's reminder, the four princes and She Lianhua glanced at each other, and then the opera garden suddenly made a noise.

Gu Ningyan immediately protected Ye Qiao and Ling Ningshuang behind him, and the stage opposite was already soaked in bright red blood.

Ye Qiao shook her fingers in fright and pointed to the opposite side and shouted, "Sister Gu, look, that pity flower is dead." ”

Gu Ningyan stopped Ye Qiao's hand, "I saw it." Then he asked Ling Ningshuang curiously, "How did he die?" ”

"I didn't see who moved it, it's a weird way to die." Ling Ningshuang didn't know how to describe it at all.

"I saw that it was he who exploded and died." The fourth prince Wei Yifan stretched his neck and looked at the stage not far away and said.

Gu Ningyan frowned, the people who watched the play were frightened and almost fled, and the only people left were the people in their theater.

"Let's leave too." There should be someone from the government to investigate this kind of matter immediately, Gu Ningyan didn't think it was right for them to stay, so he dragged the two of them away.

Ye Qiao was already frightened and couldn't walk, so she could only rely on Ling Ningshuang and Gu Ningyan to help her downstairs.

"Don't go, and arrest everyone outside the door."

As soon as they came downstairs, they were stopped by a member of the government and were not allowed to leave.

Wei Yifan stepped forward angrily, "The dog's eyes see clearly, the fourth prince of this prince." ”

"Ah, the fourth prince, I'm sorry, please forgive the minions for being clumsy, the minions are the new yamen catchers, Du Zhong."

As soon as the leader heard the identity of the other party, he immediately rushed forward to flatter. But he was complaining in his heart, and he encountered this kind of tricky case as soon as he arrived in the imperial city.

The fourth prince glanced at the catcher named Du Zhong in disgust, and asked, "Can you go now?" ”

"Yes, yes, but is it okay to ask the fourth prince to tell the slave about the situation? Knowing what you see is important to us. ”

Gu Ningyan raised his eyebrows, it seems that this catcher is not a fool.

When the fourth prince heard this, he turned his gaze to Gu Ningyan on the side, "Aunt Lanhuang, do we need to answer?" ”

Gu Ningyan replied calmly, "Of course I have to answer." ”

"What's good, just listen to the imperial aunt."

Du Zhong listened to the name of the fourth prince to women, so he asked carefully, "Dare to ask who this lady is?" ”

The fourth prince introduced Du Zhong and said, "This is Princess Lan. ”

Even though Du Zhong has just arrived in the imperial city, he still knows a little about Princess Lan's deeds, and I took revenge on my father, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law, which can be said to be ruthless, and the family of Prime Minister Gu was ruined. He really doesn't dare to provoke this kind of person! "It turned out to be Princess Lan, and you also came to listen to the play?"

Gu Ningyan saw the fear of himself from Du Zhong's face, "There's no need to be polite, but I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen." ”

"Please rest assured, Princess Lan and the four princes, the little one will definitely find out the reason." Eucommia is very confident in its assurance.

The fourth prince Wei Yifan didn't care about this, "The investigation is a matter for your government." ”

Gu Ningyan gestured to Ling Ningshuang. "Let's take Ye Qiao and let's go."

As soon as they stepped out of the opera garden, the lord of the palace got out of the carriage head-on, passed through the noisy crowd, and stopped the departure of the four princes, Princess Lan and others.

"Please don't leave the fourth prince and Princess Lan first, can you follow the officials to the county office

Go for a cup of tea. ”

Gu Ningyan and Ling Ningshuang looked at each other and smiled, I didn't expect this adult to be really direct and bold, but it was different from other officials, it was said that the imperial court had changed a lot of officials because of Wei Tingtang's incident, presumably this adult had just taken the position.

"You are from the county outside the city, and you are from the county government, and Lord Su Renqing Su is here." The Four Princes warned.

Gu Ningyan then said, "Master Su, my friend is too frightened, can you allow my people to send the child back, and I will follow you to the mansion." ”

Master Su glanced at the two women beside her, and one of them was indeed unconscious in the arms of the other.

"Of course you can, the lower official will arrange for someone to send these two young ladies back."

"Then thank you, Master Su." Gu Ningyan thought, it seems that he can't hide today.

"Du Zhong, arrange for someone to send these two young ladies back."

"Yes, sir."

The fourth prince was unwilling, "What do you mean, Lord Su, do you want to interrogate this prince." ”

Su Renqing waved his hand to the four princes. "Don't worry, the fourth prince, please understand the officials."

"Why do you want this prince to understand you."

"This..."

Su Renqing was speechless for a while by the question of the fourth prince.

At this time, She Lianhua, who had been silent, spoke, "Like Princess Lan, I agree to follow the adults to the mansion. ”

Gu Ningyan and She Lianhua both said this, and the four princes could only be silent for the time being.

After sending Ling Ningshuang and Ye Qiao away, Gu Ningyan made a gesture of please, "Master Su, if you want to investigate clearly, let's go to the scene first and take a look, and the people in the opera garden are still inside." ”

"Okay."

Gu Ningyan went in again, this time at close range, she looked very carefully. The entire stage was covered with broken corpses and blood.

The people in the theater fell under the stage one by one in fright, and when they saw the adults and officials coming in, they hurriedly pounced.

"My lord, a demon tore him apart."

"Yes, it fell apart out of thin air."

A few frightened people said that it meant the same thing, that is, it was not man-made.

Gu Ningyan couldn't see anything for the people in the opera garden for the time being, but she was a little surprised by She Lianhua beside her.

In this case, she was not afraid at all. Is it because she's seen too much, or is she... I knew it early.

Moreover, when She Lianhua saw the blood, her eyes obviously flashed with joy, and if someone else noticed this light, she would feel very terrifying.

"Master Su, what do you think after reading it?" The fourth prince was disgusted to stay away from the stage and asked Su Renqing.

I saw that Su Renqing cautiously walked onto the stage, lowered his head and dipped his fingers in blood and sniffed it between his noses, frowned and looked at Princess Lan and the fourth prince in the direction and said, "How can the smell of this blood have a rotten smell?" ”
