Xiao Yi was a little shocked after hearing the emperor's words, once he thought about committing suicide because of his disability, but later although he saw it, he always thought that he was a wasted person, and he never thought about making meritorious contributions, and now only the fourth of all the princes was crowned the king's mansion, can he really do it?

At this time, the emperor said: "I know that what you have been most concerned about over the years is Leng Er, so I can rest assured that Leng Er's affairs will be entrusted to you, and I believe that as long as you are willing to cheer up, you will still become my best son." ”

"Father......" Xiao Yi called the emperor in a choked voice, his father's love for him has always moved him very much, he knows that his father loves him the most, after meeting Xiao Leng last night, he also thought about it all night, or he really shouldn't live in such chaos anymore.

He thought that maybe it would be helpful for Ah Leng to take over this matter, so he promised the emperor that he would personally investigate Xiao Leng's assassination and track down Xiao Leng's whereabouts.

As soon as he took over this matter, he let Xiao Leng's friends go first, he knew that Xiao Leng was not dead, and Ah Leng didn't want people to know that he was alive now, so his focus was not on tracking down the truth at all, but symbolically sending people around to search for Xiao Leng's whereabouts.

When the officials knew that the emperor handed over this matter to Xiao Yi, who had always ignored the affairs of the court, everyone was unexpected, and they didn't know what the emperor meant. But in the eyes of some people, even if the emperor re-entrusts Xiao Yi with a heavy responsibility, it is insignificant, just a cripple, and it will never become a climate.

After He Shengnan went back, he waited for Wei Xiaosan and they were released the next day, but they were all scarred, either from the board or from whiplashes, He Shengnan couldn't help but shed tears when he looked at them in distress, and said sorry to them over and over again.

Wei Xiaosan smiled when he saw Qiang Yan: "Sheng Nan, what does this matter to you?" Why do you say you're sorry? ”

He Shengnan cried and said: "It's all me, it's all my self-righteousness, if I hadn't provoked those people, if I listened to you, we would have been ordinary beggars, and you wouldn't have been implicated in this matter, and you wouldn't have suffered from these flesh and skin......"

The more He Shengnan cried, the more she cried, she blamed herself for the past two days, Wei Xiaosan saw this, and held his still hot and sore ass and wanted to wipe He Shengnan's tears, at this time Xiaowei hurriedly said: "It's none of your business Shengnan, I don't want to be a beggar anymore, I also thank you for giving us the life we have now." ”

Wei Xiaosan also endured the pain and wiped He Shengnan's tears and said: "It's Shengnan, don't take my words to heart before, no one wants to be a beggar for the rest of my life, I was just a coward before, how good it is to live with dignity now, you can't be blamed for this matter at all, you see, aren't we all back well now." ”

The more they comforted, the more He Shengnan blamed herself, and she continued to cry: "It's okay, look at your injuries one by one, all of them are peeling and flesh open." ”

Tang Erdan hurriedly said: "We're fine, we don't hurt Sheng Nan, really, it doesn't hurt at all." ”

As soon as he said this, the others quickly chimed in: "Yes, yes, it doesn't hurt, we don't hurt." ”

They both moved He Shengnan one by one, and made He Shengnan feel distressed, at this time Mu Yuxue also came back, originally she was guilty, but the emperor looked at the face of the dead Concubine Yu, and added Xiao Yi's intercession, so he pardoned her, anyway, one of her daughters' family was also affected by her father, and she was not at fault, so let it go.

Seeing Mu Yuxue coming back, Tang Erdan hurriedly endured the pain and walked over to her and hurriedly asked, "Yuxue, are you okay?" ”

He was worried that Mu Yuxue would be tortured like them, but Mu Yuxue shook her head, she noticed that He Shengnan was also there, and hurriedly walked towards He Shengnan, grabbed He Shengnan's arm and said excitedly: "Shengnan, where is Brother Leng?" Is there anything wrong with him? Where is he? ”

He ...... He ...... "He Shengnan was speechless, she didn't know how to answer, she was afraid that she would be very sad to tell Mu Yuxue directly that Xiao Leng died, and finally she thought about it and said: "I don't know, I was knocked unconscious, and then I was thrown in a place that I don't know what to call, and I walked for several days before I came back." ”

Mu Yuxue was a little disappointed when she heard this, and muttered in her mouth: "It turns out that you are not with Brother Leng......"

Suddenly, she remembered something again, and hurriedly said to He Shengnan excitedly: "Didn't you say you knew that assassin that day?" Who is he? You come with me to see the emperor, we will let the emperor arrest him, as long as he is caught, he will definitely be able to rescue Brother Leng. ”

He Shengnan listened and hurriedly pushed Mu Yuxue away, she lowered her head, took two steps back and didn't know what to do, she felt that she couldn't confess Xiao Shi, otherwise Leng Guyue would definitely be implicated, he was injured now, and he would be in danger. Although she hated him a little now, she didn't want anything to happen to him either.

Seeing that He Shengnan didn't speak, Mu Yuxue walked over to her again and asked, "Are you talking Shengnan?" Who were those Assassins? ”

That day, she heard He Shengnan shout the name of the assassin leader, but it was too far away for her to hear clearly.

He Shengnan immediately shook his head and denied: "I don't know, when I saw that person's mask fall off in a panic, I thought it was a friend I knew, and I saw it clearly before I saw that I recognized the wrong person, he is not someone I know at all, if I know him, how can he even hurt me?" ”

Mu Yuxue was a little skeptical after hearing this, and she confirmed again: "Really? You really don't know him? ”

He Shengnan nodded and said: "Yes, I really don't know, although I haven't met Xiao Leng a few times, but I have also shared life and death with him, and I have long regarded him as a friend in my heart, if I know who those assassins are, how can I protect them?" ”

Mu Yuxue lowered her head in disappointment after hearing this, she was too far away at that time, and she only saw He Shengnan running over to stop those people, and she didn't hear what they were talking about at all, her tears fell down her eyes, and she said while crying: "Brother Leng...... Where the hell is he? ”

Looking at Mu Yuxue, He Shengnan felt a little self-blamed, but she really didn't want to confess Leng Guyue. She shielded the murderer, so has she also become a bad person?

"I ...... I'm going to get a doctor for you. He Shengnan looked at the injured Wei Xiaosan and hurriedly said, after saying that, she took the opportunity to run out, otherwise she really didn't know how to face Mu Yuxue.

Half a month later, several of their injuries were almost healed, and the beggar's nest teahouse was reopened, Mu Yuxue was now pardoned by the emperor, so she finally didn't have to wear a veil every day, while the others were still busy in their special beggar clothes, greeting guests.

Affected by the last closure, the business of the teahouse is much colder than before, but there are still many people who come to register for He Shengnan to paint portraits, and sketching is too novel for them.

And Mu Yuxue, who took off her veil, was even more charming when she played the guzheng in the store, but since Xiao Leng's whereabouts were unknown, there was no smile on her face anymore. lost her family before, it was Xiao Leng's love that supported her to regain her strength, and now even Xiao Leng's life and death are uncertain, she doesn't know what the meaning of her life is.

Now she plays the piano in the teahouse all day long, and her hands are shaking without stopping, and her piano sound is sad and sad, but it is extremely soothing and beautiful, and this sound has also attracted many outsiders.

Tang Erdan has always been by her side, although he knows that he can't comfort her, but he can at least make her feel that she is not alone, she still has him, even if she never sees him.

Today, He Shengnan finished painting all the registered people, and when she was idle, she made herself a pot of tea, and looked at Mu Yuxue, who had been playing with her head down, while drinking tea. In the past, the first beauty in the capital who was so beautiful and moving, now she has become a quiet and smiling ice beauty. She felt that she couldn't stand her, concealed Xiao Leng's death, and shielded the enemy who killed Xiao Leng, and slowly she felt, what is the difference between her and Leng Guyue's murderer? But she just didn't want Leng Guyue to have anything to do.

Seeing He Shengnan sitting there holding a teacup in a daze, and hadn't taken a sip for a long time, Zhang Fei walked over to her. He sat down opposite He Shengnan and poured himself a cup of tea, but he didn't drink it, but looked at Mu Yuxue who was playing the piano in the distance, and then looked at He Shengnan who was stunned.

He bowed his head and said nothing, dipped his fingers in the cup of tea, and wrote a name on the table - Leng Guyue.

"He is the murderer of Xiao Leng." Zhang Fei looked up at He Shengnan and said.

He Shengnan came back to his senses when he heard the voice, and saw Zhang Feizhong on the opposite side pointing to the tabletop, and she followed his gesture and glanced at it.

Seeing Leng Guyue's three words, her face was a little pale, and she looked up at Zhang Fei and asked nervously, "What do you mean?" ”

Zhang Fei stretched out his hand to erase the three words Leng Guyue on the table, looked up at He Shengnan, and said in his heart: "That day, Mu Yuxue said that you said that you knew the assassin who assassinated Xiao Leng, but you said that you admitted your mistake at that time, if you really admit your mistake, how can you look at Mu Yuxue every day with a guilty face and lose her mind all day long?" Among the people you know, the only one who has the ability and dares to kill the prince is Meihuazhuang. Your relationship with Meihuazhuang is incredible, you once said that Leng Guyue is your future husband, at that time we only talked nonsense when you were paranoid, but it turned out that you did fall into the hands of Meihuazhuang many times, not only were not hurt by them, but also helped by Meihuazhuang many times, which does not make sense for Meihuazhuang who kills people without blinking. ”

He Shengnan looked at Zhang Fei after listening, she had to admit that this Zhang Fei was too smart, she always knew that he and Xiao San were not the same person, and she never treated him as an ordinary person, and now it seems to be correct.

"Even if you guess correctly, the people from Meihuazhuang helped me a few times, but this doesn't prove that Xiao Leng's death has something to do with them, I did see the wrong person that day." Although He Shengnan is sitting far away from Mu Yuxue now, coupled with the sound of the piano and the conversation of the guests, her conversation with Zhang Fei will not be heard by Mu Yuxue at all, but she still doesn't want to admit it, and she doesn't want to say that the murderer is from Meihuazhuang.
