Chapter 289: After the Trouble

Receiving the news of Zheng Peiquan's killing, Zheng Peilan is also very different, although she knows that this younger brother is not a weapon and is stubborn, but she always thinks that he is still young, and he will always be able to do things if he is well disciplined in the future, and she never thought that he would end up like this!

"Your Highness!" Zheng Peilan hurriedly asked with a pale face, she expected that her father would be heartbroken to lose his only son at this moment, and she should go back to the Xuanyuan Marquis Mansion with Li Changlong to comfort her father.

"Your Highness has not been back since he left in the evening!"

"Don't go find it yet!" Zheng Peilan scolded, "After finding His Highness, immediately let him rush to the Xuanyuan Marquis Mansion!"

"Yes!" his men hurriedly went out to find Li Changlong.

Zheng Peilan didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurried back to the Xuanyuan Marquis Mansion, only to see Zheng Peiquan's body being placed on the hall, covered with a white cloth, and Xuanyuan Hou sat on the top of the inquiry, hanging his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

"Father!" Zheng Peilan stepped forward slowly and called softly, "My brother has already gone, and the condolences are changing." ”

"You're back. Xuanyuan Hou raised his head, his tone was very calm, but his hair was gray, his face seemed to be covered with wrinkles overnight, and he was more than ten years old.

"Father, you must take care of yourself. Zheng Peilan knelt in front of Xuanyuan Hou and said, "You still have me, my sister, and the Zheng family, my father can't fall!"

"I'm not going to fall. Xuanyuan Hou said coldly, "How could I fall before I avenged Quan'er?"

"Father, what the hell is going on?" Zheng Peilan asked, "How could my brother suddenly ...... Could it be that the second prince did it?"

"Not necessarily!" Xuanyuan Hou said calmly, "I inquired about what Quan'er did today, after he went out today, he went to the Qinglou, according to the subordinates, he recently fell in love with a woman there, and it is said that he was jealous of the woman because of that woman today." I was sending someone to the Qinglou to find someone, but I found that the old bustard had been killed, but there was indeed a young son who had been jealous of him, but no one knew the identity of that son!"

"What about the Qinglou woman?" Zheng Peilan then asked.

"I also sent someone to look for her, but I didn't find her body, nor did I find her whereabouts. Xuanyuan Hou said, "Your brother usually rests in the mansion, and rarely spends the night outside, tonight is just for fear of bringing back a Qinglou woman who will be scolded by me, so he temporarily decided to go to the house outside, so if the second prince does it, then how do they know that your brother will not go home tonight? Unless they started following him a long time ago, but why? Why do they do it to your brother? Your brother can't threaten him at all!"

"Could it be that the woman in the Qinglou is the second prince's person, and she conspired with outsiders to kill her younger brother. Zheng Peilan's eyes rolled slightly, and said, "Otherwise, I can't explain why all the people in the house died, but I didn't see the woman." ”

"There is another possibility, it is the one who is jealous of your brother in the Qinglou. Xuanyuan Hou said, "Since he dares to confront your brother, his identity must be unusual, so it is also possible for him to do it, and the woman happened to be snatched back by him." ”

"It seems that now that I want to know who killed my brother, I must first find the whereabouts of the Qinglou woman. Zheng Peilan said, "I will definitely find out the real culprit behind the scenes and avenge my brother! Father, you go and rest, let me handle my brother's afterlife!"

Xuanyuan Hou was also exhausted, so he didn't say anything more, got up tremblingly, went back to his room, and handed over the rest to his daughter to take care of.

Zheng Peilan held back the grief in her heart, began to take care of Zheng Peiquan's funeral, called all the subordinates in charge of the house, and arranged the next time. It's just that until dawn, Li Changlong was not seen, and she had to continue to send people to find the whereabouts of the prince.

Li Changlong has always held a grudge against this brother-in-law who has been provoking his authority, and because of his bad mood last night, coupled with the fact that his authority was provoked again, he was angry, and naturally he didn't care about the consequences, so he ordered someone to follow Zheng Peiquan, and then sent a killer to snatch Xiangxue over.

However, when the person really brought Xiangxue to him, looking at the blood on the woman's body, he suddenly had a strong emotion of fear, which naturally exceeded his desire for a woman. If Marquis Xuanyuan knew the truth, what measures would he take in the face of the tragic death of his only son? Especially now that he was already being pressed step by step by the second prince, if his uncle made trouble behind his back again, he was afraid that there would be no hope!

A huge frustration welled up in his heart, which naturally made him explode all his emotions on the innocent woman in front of him.

"It's all your fault! You slut! If it weren't for you, this palace wouldn't have acted so impulsively!" Li Changlong stepped forward and slapped Xiangxue twice.

The corners of Xiangxue's mouth overflowed with blood, and she covered her face and looked at him with a cheerful and provocative gaze.

"Isn't it your men's favorite thing to do by throwing all your faults on women? In the past, there was the disaster of destroying the country, and now His Highness is angry and kills his brother-in-law. Xiangxue smiled sarcastically, "His Royal Highness has a deep grudge against Zheng Peiquan, I am just an outburst of triggers, even if there is no me today, there will be another person, another thing that makes His Highness hurt." Instead of blaming me here, Your Highness might as well think about how to properly deal with the trouble you have caused! There is already a deep feud between His Highness and Marquis Xuanyuan, and in the future, Marquis Xuanyuan will not only not be His Highness's help, but will be His Highness's enemy, His Highness should take the initiative to attack while the other party has not suspected His Highness's body!"

Li Changlong's eyes narrowed, he took two steps forward and grabbed Xiangxue's neck, and said coldly: "This remark is not something that you, a woman in a green building, can say, who are you?"

"I'm just a poor person who can't help myself!" Xiangxue smiled bitterly, "I used to be committed to Zheng Peiquan but had no choice, if I didn't obey, it would be a dead end, what place did I have a weak woman to resist? Now that His Royal Highness has obtained me, I am His Highness's person! Zheng Peiquan is dead, Xuanyuan Hou will definitely be completely angry with me, if I leave His Highness and fall into the hands of Xuanyuan Hou, I will definitely die, and now His Royal Highness is my only reliance." If Your Highness wants to kill, kill me, if Your Highness leaves the little girl's life, then Your Highness will be the master of the rest of her life!"

Li Changlong looked at Xiangxue's eyes, was silent for a moment, slowly withdrew his hand, and said coldly: "If you dare to deceive this palace, this palace will definitely want you to live rather than die!"

"I have already said that only if Your Highness is good, the little woman will have a way to live, otherwise the little woman will definitely die!" Xiangxue said, "Your Highness has done the matter now, you must make a decision as soon as possible, and you can't let the other party have a chance to fight back!"

"Bengong knows it in his heart, you don't need to talk too much!" Li Changlong said coldly, "Take her down, Bengong should calm down." ”

At this time, his subordinates entered and said, "Your Highness, the crown princess is looking for you everywhere, let Your Highness go to the Xuanyuan Marquis Mansion." ”

Li Changlong didn't know in his heart at this time whether Xuanyuan Hou already knew that this matter was done by himself, how could he have the courage to go to Xuanyuan Hou's Mansion, he rolled his eyes and hurriedly went out, but not to Xuanyuan Hou's Mansion, but to Fengxi Palace.

The news of Zheng Peiquan's accident naturally spread to Fengxi Palace, and the queen was woken up, and she was crying and sad at the moment, and when she heard that her son was coming, she hurriedly asked her son to come in.

"You must have known the news of Quan'er's accident, so you entered the palace to endanger your mother, right?" The queen wiped her tears, "The queen mother is fine, you go to your uncle's house, at this time, your uncle is fragile and sad, and it is the time for you to show your responsibility!"

Li Changlong calmly asked all the palace people in the room to retreat, hurriedly sat opposite the queen, and said, "Queen Mother, the son wants to tell you something. ”

"What's the matter?" asked the Queen.

"Zheng Peiquan, it was Erchen who made him kill!" Li Changlong hesitated and said.

"What!" the Queen's face changed dramatically, her eyes widened in surprise, and she stood up and asked, "What did you just say!"

"Zheng Peiquan was killed by his son!" Li Changlong said with annoyance.

"Why?" the queen calmed down, sat down and asked, "Why did you do that? Do you know the current situation of our mother and son? Prime Minister Bai has already offended, if there is no support from your uncle, do you know what awaits us?

"Erchen knows, Erchen knows!" Li Changlong said, "Zheng Peiquan has been provoking Erchen, thinking that Erchen is all due to his father's credit today, and he has never put Erchen in his eyes, and Erchen can't help but ...... However, although Erchen regrets that he was too impulsive now, but now whether it is regret or self-blame, I can't help it, our mother and son have to think about countermeasures, what should we do next!"

"What are you going to do?" the queen felt a tingling pain in her head, and she pressed her temple, "Since you have done it, you have to bear the consequences yourself!"

"Erchen doesn't know what to do yet,......" Li Changlong said hesitantly, "But I'm afraid that my uncle doesn't know that this matter is my so-called, if he finds out, he will definitely not let me go, maybe he will go back to support the second child, so we have to dare to strike first before he notices anything!"

"Since there is no way out, there is only that!" The queen's eyes slowly opened, and a touch of coldness burst out of her eyes, "If without your uncle's support, the status of our mother and son is in jeopardy, anyway, it is a desperate and desperate gamble, then we have to do more than this one thing!"
