Chapter 40: Why Are You Again?
"Miss, you're fine."
After carefully checking Xiao Ruoxi up and down, after confirming that Xiao Ruoxi was fine, Lian Xiang was relieved.
"But because this incident happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, Chu Xiuhan handed over this matter to my father to investigate, but I suspect that someone deliberately pointed this matter to the Prime Minister's Mansion and asked my father to carry this black cauldron."
Xiao Ruoxi believes that her father will never do such an obvious stupid thing and do it to his son-in-law in his own house, no matter who it is, he will point the finger at him.
Besides, Daddy and Chu Xiuhan had no grudges in the past and no enmity in the near future, how could they kill Chu Xiuhan? It doesn't make sense at all.
"So miss, do you suspect that someone is deliberately trying to splash dirty water on the master?"
Lian Xiang looked at Xiao Ruoxi and asked.
"There were not a few guests who went to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, and there were the prince and several princes who stayed overnight, so I don't know who did the assassination yesterday, but Chu Xiuhan asked his father to investigate this matter in vain, which clearly means that this matter is related to his father!"
Xiao Ruoxi roughly talked about the situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, she was very dissatisfied with Chu Xiuhan's approach, but there was only one person around her who could talk, so she could only say it to Lianxiang.
Hearing this, Lian Xiang nodded thoughtfully and said:
"Between this prince and several princes, it may be that the most likely to cause a fight is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and our Royal Highness King Han, and it is rumored that our Royal Highness the King of Han will be the biggest obstacle to His Royal Highness the Prince's ascension to the throne in the future."
Lian Xiang listened to Xiao Ruoxi what she knew, hoping to help her to a certain extent.
"But I think it's unlikely that this matter was done by Chu Xiuran......"
Xiao Ruoxi said thoughtfully, of course she understood what Lianxiang meant, and she had also thought about it before, whether this matter would have anything to do with Chu Xiuran.
But then I thought about it, since Chu Xiuran can be the crown prince, then this person is definitely not to be underestimated, he will definitely not be stupid enough to stab Chu Xiuhan at that time, anyone with a little bit of intelligence will doubt him, okay?
Moreover, after the incident happened last night, Chu Xiuran also appeared at the scene of the crime for the first time, and he looked shocked at that time, not as if he knew about it in advance.
And Chu Xiuyi and Chu Xiuyan helped analyze this matter together yesterday, and it can be seen that they didn't know anything about this matter before.
"Who could it be?"
Xiao Ruoxi felt a mess in her heart at the moment, stretched out her hand and kept scratching her hair, and forcibly scratched her beautiful long hair like a bird's nest.
"Miss, calm down, we'll always find a way."
Lian Xiang grabbed Xiao Ruoxi's restless hand from her head and said with a serious face.
Xiao Ruoxi looked up at Lian Xiang helplessly, sighed, and fell onto the bed, staring straight at the top of the bed with his eyes like that, motionless.
After lying down for only two or three seconds, Xiao Ruoxi sat up suddenly.
"Lianxiang, help me freshen up, I want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Now? But didn't Miss just come back from the Prime Minister's Mansion? ”
Lian Xiang asked with some doubts, why did she go to the Prime Minister's Mansion again when she just came back.
Although she was puzzled, Lian Xiang also followed Xiao Ruoxi's steps and moved to the dresser, picked up the wooden comb and began to dress up Xiao Ruoxi.
In just a moment, the hair that was still a mess by Xiao Ruoxi just now was sorted out by Lian Xiang and fixed in the back of his head.
"All right, miss."
Lian Xiang put down the wooden comb, looked at her work with satisfaction, and said to Xiao Ruoxi.
"Then let's go!"
With that, Xiao Ruoxi got up and went out with Lianxiang.
"Princess, you are not allowed to leave the palace without the order of the prince."
Xiao Ruoxi took pity and incense, and just walked to the gate of the palace, and was stopped again.
Xiao Ruoxi paused, took a deep breath, suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, turned her head to look at the guard who stopped her, and gritted her teeth and said:
"I said, why are you again? Chengxin can't get along with me, right? ”
Perhaps frightened by Xiao Ruoxi's aggressive momentum, the guard stammered a little and said:
"No, Princess, you ...... Don't embarrass your subordinates? This is the prince's order, and there is no way for his subordinates! ”
As soon as Xiao Ruoxi heard that it was Chu Xiuhan, he immediately became angry, approached the guard step by step, and said:
"If you don't dare to disobey the prince's orders, do you dare to disobey the princess's words?"
Frightened by Xiao Ruoxi's approaching momentum, he stepped back step by step, and the guard's legs began to tremble.
"Princess, please don't embarrass your subordinates."
The guard begged, "He...... Whether it's the prince or the princess, he can't afford to offend any of them!
"If you let me out, I won't embarrass you."
Saying that, Xiao Ruoxi raised his feet and was about to go out, too lazy to entangle with this guard and waste time.
However, before the man could go out, he was stopped by the guards who stretched out their hands.
Xiao Ruoxi gritted her teeth and looked at the hand in front of her that made her want to cut off with a knife, and then turned her head to look at Lianxiang.
Then, without saying a word, he grabbed the guard's hand.
The guard was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Xiao Ruoxi was trying to do, but Xiao Ruoxi's next words made the guard frightened.
I saw Xiao Ruoxi grab the guard's hand tightly, and began to shout to the surroundings at the top of his voice:
"Someone! Help me! Indecent ......"
Her voice scared the guard a lot, and he couldn't afford the charge of indecent assault.
At that moment, the guard was full of strength, trying to break free from Xiao Ruoxi's shackles, and said tremblingly while breaking free from his mouth:
"Princess, don't shout...... If people hear this, their subordinates will die......"
The guard didn't know that Xiao Ruoxi looked like a weak woman, but this strength was not ordinarily great, he felt that he had exhausted all the strength of his body, and he couldn't break free from Xiao Ruoxi's shackles.
Looking at the guard's desperate struggle, the corners of Xiao Ruoxi's mouth hooked up an imperceptible arc, and suddenly turned his head and said to Lianxiang:
"Mercy, run......"
After speaking, his hand was slightly released, and the guard quickly took a few steps back due to an unstable center of gravity.
Xiao Ruoxi took advantage of this opportunity to rush out of the gate of the Hanwang Mansion with mercy and ran away.
When the guard stood still, he helped the hat on his head, and when he saw Xiao Ruoxi running out like this, he immediately followed, while talking to his mouth:
"Princess, come back soon! The prince said, you really can't leave the house! ”
But how could Xiao Ruoxi come back obediently?
The guard was chasing after him desperately, and Xiao Ruoxi was running desperately in front.
Not far away, a carriage stopped there, Xiao Ruoxi didn't say a word, and jumped up with mercy.
"Master, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion ......"
As soon as he jumped into the carriage, Xiao Ruoxi shouted to the coachman who was driving the carriage.
