Princess Ming'an is dead!

Shen Miao was stunned, what Luo Tan said was upside down, not very clear, but Shen Miao also understood it...... しw0。 There is no doubt that Princess Ming'an's death must have been Xie Jingxing's handiwork, and as for the two men mentioned, Shen Miao thought of the Xie brothers almost immediately. Thinking about it, I didn't just gasp. I have to say that Xie Jingxing is indeed a ruthless master. If Princess Ming'an was just an ordinary victim, there would probably be no problem. However, when Princess Ming'an and the Xie brothers were placed together in such a fragrant way, the focus of the people's attention was not the fact of being killed, but the private relationship between Princess Ming'an and the Xie brothers.

It is true that all this may be the hand of the murderer, but compared with a cold investigation, such a gimmicky and glamorous case is easier for the people to talk about. In any case, even if Emperor Fuhao or Emperor Wenhui suppressed it by force, or came forward to clarify, others would not believe it. Princess Ming'an is the body of a princess of a country, but everyone looks at it like a woman in a green building, but she is afraid that this matter will be transmitted back to Qin, which is also a joke of Qin.

Xie Jingxing is indeed an unrelenting master.

As for the Xie family brothers, Shen Miao's thoughts were slightly sinking, maybe Huangfu Hao would be furious, but no one could prove that the Xie family brothers really forced Princess Ming'an to do anything, because the Xie family brothers also died. It is impossible for Huangfu Hao to be angry with Lin'anhou, because Lin'anhou lost two sons one after another, which is also very tragic.

Seeing Shen Miao's thoughtful appearance, Luo Tan couldn't help but ask, "Little cousin, did you guess something? Who did you say was the person behind the scenes, who was so bold?"

Shen Miao smiled slightly: "I'm not good at investigating cases, if you want to know the result, just look at how the case is tried in Dali Temple." ”

"Anyway," Luo Tan said with a straightforward personality, "but I don't sympathize with her at all." The princess is flying and domineering, and she is the most vindictive when she hears it, and if she is still alive, she may have to find the fault of her little cousin one day, and it is good to do so now. I don't know which hero is like this, eliminating harm for the people. Luo Tan shook his hands, as if he wanted to make friends with the man.

Shen Miao glanced at her and said, "You are very fond of people who kill people and set fires, and your heart is quite broad." ”

Luo Tan said: "Our Luo family has always been so clear about grievances, love and hate!" She suddenly paused and said: "Speaking of grievances, you were kidnapped before, I went to ask King Da Liang Rui for help, and he rescued you immediately, and when you have time in the future, don't forget to thank him, little cousin." ”

Shen Miao: "...... Thank you for your concern. ”

Luo Tan patted her on the shoulder, but heard the stunned sting walking in from outside, and said with a smile: "Miss Luo, Imperial Doctor Gao has come to show you the pulse." ”

Luo Tan's face changed instantly, and he immediately stood up and said to Shen Miao: "That little cousin, I'll go first, think about the matter of Princess Ming'an today, if there is any result, hehe, tell me too, I want to find that brother!"

Shen Miao looked at Luo Tan's back and sighed, her eyes gradually sank.

Xie Jingxing made such a big move, and naturally gave people a bad breath. However, after all, she is a princess of a country, and there are many people involved in this, will it really pass peacefully? Shen Miao didn't think so.

......

The fact that Princess Ming'an and the Xie brothers of Dingjing City were made into ice sculptures soon spread throughout Dingjing City. The people of the Yamen quickly drove away the people around Wanli Lake and let the three of them go. As soon as Huangfu Hao saw the corpse of Princess Ming'an, he was furious, and even Emperor Wen Hui was a little overwhelmed by his anger.

Huang Fu Hao's face was gloomy and could drip water, and he sneered: "In the land of Your Majesty, my princess of Qin Kingdom has been insulted to death in such a way, this palace has to wonder what Ming Qi's intentions are? ”

Emperor Wen Hui pressed his forehead, and Huang Fuhao's somewhat threatening words made him very unhappy, and he didn't seem to take him, the emperor of Mingqi, in his eyes. However, this incident happened suddenly, and even Emperor Wen Hui himself didn't know why it happened. Lin'an Hou Xie Ding knelt down and said with tears: "I beg Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly!

The civil and military officials in the Jinluan Hall were all a little embarrassed. How was the Lin'an Hou Mansion full of flowers at the beginning, and how high-spirited the Lin'an Hou was when he was young, that is, he could even find an excuse not to listen to the emperor's orders outside, and finally married the noble Princess Yuqing of Ming Qi. But since the time of Princess Yuqing, the Lin'an Hou Mansion has gradually declined as if it had lost its spirit. Princess Yuqing's blood Xie Jingxing was originally a rare and rare talent, but he was also buried on the battlefield by the yellow sand. Emperor Wen Hui also planned to deal with the Lin'an Hou Mansion in the past, but later after seeing Xie Jingxing's death, Lin'an Hou himself was about to toss himself away, so he gradually stopped paying attention to the Lin'an Hou Mansion. Now the remaining two concubines of Lin'an Hou have also died so tragically, and there is no successor to the huge Lin'an Hou Mansion, and they will only disappear in the torrent of Ming and Qi history in the future. Recalling the glory of the past, and then looking at today's bleakness, everyone can't help but feel sad.

Huangfu Hao glanced at Xie Ding without a trace, and there was a hint of gloom in his eyes. Regardless of whether the Xie family brothers were the one who was killed, or whether they were put on such a posture after their deaths, there is no doubt that Princess Ming'an's innocence and dignity were destroyed because of the Xie family brothers, and the people behind the scenes are certainly hateful, but the Xie family cannot let them go, when did the royal family of the Qin State suffer such an insult? Huang Fu Hao looked at Xie Ding and had already made up his mind in his heart.

Emperor Wen Hui had a headache, waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is very bad, someone has committed such a heinous crime at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is to ignore the precepts of the Ming Qi Decree, and the crime is extremely heinous. I have already sent people from Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate this case, and I will definitely catch the people behind the scenes and give you an explanation!"

Having said that, Huang Fuhao was not very happy, and arched his hand: "Since it is the princess of the Qin State who suffers, I also ask Your Majesty to agree to let my Qin State's people follow to investigate this matter." Otherwise, when I return to China in the future, my father will ask him, and the palace will not be able to explain. ”

In his words, he didn't believe that Ming Qi would really investigate this matter thoroughly.

Emperor Wen Hui forcibly held back the anger in his heart and said, "Since this is the case, I am ready." ”

After Emperor Wen Hui left, most of the officials in the court were not familiar with Huang Fu Hao, so they would not take the initiative to get up. But Lin'an Hou is a big family of Mingqi, and when he suffered this bad luck, everyone stepped forward to comfort him.

In the midst of the comfort, one person walked in front of Huang Fuhao and said softly: "Please also ask the prince to mourn." ”

This person is none other than Fu Xiuyi, the king of Ding.

Huang Fu Hao was angry, and when he saw Fu Xiuyi, his face did not improve, and he arched his hand and was about to leave. But I heard Fu Xiuyi whispering behind him: "Regarding the murder of the princess, I also have some thoughts below, I don't know if the prince is willing to hear it." ”

Huangfu Hao was stunned for a moment, at this moment the hundred officials were busy comforting Lin'an Hou, and they happened to walk to the corner again, and no one saw the movements between the two. Huangfu Hao sneered and asked, "What else does King Feiding have to say?"

"I just noticed something strange. Fu Xiuyi smiled indifferently: "If the prince is interested and has free time, I am willing to explore it with the prince in detail." ”

Huangfu Hao turned his head, Fu Xiuyi smiled, turned around and left. Huangfu Hao stood in place for a while, glanced back at Xie Ding, who was surrounded by everyone, sneered, and strode away.

......

The people who investigated the case of Princess Ming'an acted quickly, because the princess of Qin was involved, and the people in Dali Temple did not dare to take it lightly. But this time, I don't know why, there is no trace left. After checking various scenes over and over again, I came to the fact that Princess Ming'an and the Xie brothers had an affair. It's just that this result naturally can't be shown to Emperor Wen Hui, otherwise let's not talk about Emperor Wen Hui, I'm afraid that the prince of Qin will also be furious.

The case seems to have reached an impasse.

In Shen's house, Shen Qiu entered Shen Miao's study, and saw Shen Miao casually flipping through the biography she bought outside, so she sat down opposite her.

Shen Miao glanced at Shen Qiu, and when she saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, she asked, "Big brother looks at me, but what do you have to say?"

"Sister. Shen Qiu hesitated, it seemed that it was extremely difficult to speak, and he looked quite entangled. Shen Miao felt a little strange and asked him, "If the eldest brother has anything to say, you might as well say it directly, don't worry." ”

Shen Qiu thought about it for a long time before asking, "Sister, did you do the matter of Princess Ming'an?"

Shen Miao was slightly stunned, but she didn't expect Shen Qiu to think of her here. However, she quickly smiled and said, "Why did the eldest brother say this? Princess Ming'an and the two brothers of the Xie family, I can't do it alone." ”

Shen Qiu looked at Shen Miao, his eyes were a little complicated, and after a while, he sighed and said, "Sister, my father and mother and I failed to protect you before, and we have let you live with those people with beastly hearts in the Shen Mansion all these years, what have you experienced, I didn't understand it at first, but then I understood." I know you know how to protect yourself, and I know you have some means, but ...... We are your family. He said seriously, seriously: "There are some things you don't have to solve by yourself, tell me and my father, although we don't cover the sky with one hand, we can also try our best to protect you." ”

Shen Miao lowered her eyes, put away the thousands of emotions in her heart, and said with a smile: "Big brother, what you said is right, although we are a family, but the matter of Princess Ming'an is indeed not my doing." I don't have that much ability, and I don't have that much courage. Besides," she asked rhetorically: "It's just Princess Ming'an, what does the Xie family brother have to do with me?"

Shen Qiu sighed and said, "You still don't want to be honest with me. ”

Shen Miao didn't say anything. For Shen Qiu, in fact, Shen Miao is also revealing her information to him little by little, one day in the future, if she really comes to a step of no return, at least Shen Qiu can understand why she did these things earlier. But not everything in this world can be done overnight, and she can't tell it all right now.

"Well, I just want to tell you that since I can guess that you have something to do with it, my father and mother may not be ignorant. Shen Qiu stared at Shen Miao, his face was serious: "You must know that Princess Ming'an has not had any holidays with anyone in Mingqi, if there is, she will be alone with you." When we think like this, the crown prince of Qin will naturally think that in fact, no matter whether you have anything to do with this matter or not, there will always be people who will set their eyes on you. Sister, you are very dangerous right now. ”

Shen Miao said: "But I have nothing to do with this matter, even if I can't find it, can't I?" In fact, Shen Qiu said, how could Shen Miao not think of it? Xie Jingxing can certainly seal the mouth of the entire Dingjing, so that the people of Dingjing City can't find any clues, but what will Huangfu Hao think in his heart? This Xie Jingxing can't stop it.

"Are you really so confident?" asked Shen Qiu.

Shen Miao said: "Don't worry, big brother, this matter really has nothing to do with me." ”

Shen Qiu breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and said: "These days, don't go out of the mansion, it's not peaceful in the Dingjing City, not to mention that there are still some people with ghosts in their hearts, and the mansion has increased guards, so it's safe to come." ”

Shen Miao bowed his head, Shen Qiu stood up, he still had military affairs with him, and he had to rush back, when he was about to go out, he suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at Shen Miao, and asked, "Sister, have you ever met a powerful person?"

Shen Miao's heart moved slightly, but her face was calm, and she shook her head and said, "No." ”

Shen Qiu didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

In fact, Shen Qiu's worries were really right, this night, a special guest came up to the Dingwang Mansion. This distinguished guest was none other than the crown prince Fu Hao, who had recently been furious because of the tragic death of his sister.

On the Jinluan Palace, Fu Xiuyi's fluttering words with Huang Fu Hao finally made the suspicious Huang Fu Hao decide to take this trip. Before Huang Fu Hao came, Fu Xiuyi asked Pei Lang to hide in the next room and listen to the conversation between the two through the open dark window.

Huangfu Hao put the tea cup in his hand heavily, but he didn't rub shoulders with Fu Xiuyi, and said straight to the point: "His Royal Highness King Ding said before that he thinks that there is something strange about his sister, can you explain one or two?"

"Why should the prince be in a hurry. Fu Xiuyi smiled faintly: "Princess Ming'an was killed, and I also deeply regret it." But the plan now is not to catch the murderer immediately. ”

Huangfu Hao frowned, looked at Fu Xiuyi and sneered: "Could it be that King Feiding also thinks that this palace should be peaceful?" I don't know what the rules of your Mingqi are, but in the Qin State, the murder of the princess of a country is the top priority, even if the matter is peaceful today, in the future, my father and emperor will know about it, and he will definitely seek justice with your majesty Mingqi." It's just a tributary banquet, but the princess of my Qin Kingdom died here, does King Ding think this is like words?"

There was a faint threat in the words.

Fu Xiuyi shook his head and said: "Since the prince is so anxious, then I won't play dumb riddles with the prince, generally speaking, there will always be a reason for the murder." This incident looked like the Xie brothers and Princess Ming'an were killed together, but the other party posed with the corpse as an insult, obviously deliberately discrediting Princess Ming'an. In other words, the other party is clearly coming for Princess Ming'an. ”

Huangfu Hao sneered: "I naturally know that it is not a small courage to dare to do such a thing." ”

"The prince might as well think about it, within Mingqi, who would have such a grudge with Princess Ming'an?"

Huangfu Hao was stunned for a moment, then frowned and thought deeply. Princess Ming'an has an arrogant temperament, and she treats her subordinates either by beating or scolding on weekdays, and there are naturally many people who complain about her. But since entering Mingqi, because his father and the emperor have asked for orders, they can't get into trouble with Emperor Wenhui when they come to Mingqi, so they let Princess Ming'an restrain herself. Therefore, although Princess Ming'an acted presumptuously, she did not offend anyone to the bureaucrats of Mingqi.

Unless...... Huang Fuhao suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and then he asked in a deep voice, "You said Shen Miao?"

Fu Xiuyi smiled silently.

"Impossible!" Huangfu Hao said: "Even if she had a holiday with Ming An, Ming An also teased her later, but Shen Miao is just a woman, and Ming An still has guards by her side, how can Shen Miao deal with it?"

Fu Xiuyi smiled and shook his head: "Shen Miao can't, but don't forget, she is Shen Xin's daughter, what does Shen Xin do to this daughter? ”

Huangfu Hao remembered that on the day of the tribute banquet, when Princess Ming'an and Shen Miao were in a stalemate, Shen Xin, as his father, stood by Shen Miao's side from beginning to end, and even did not hesitate to ignore Emperor Wenhui's face to show a tough posture. If Shen Xin stood up for his daughter, it was not impossible for Shen Xin's people to take action.

"What about the Xie family's concubine?" Huangfu Hao said in a deep voice: "Even if Shen Xin comes out for Shen Miao, he will not catch up with the Xie family for no reason. Xie Ding is still an official in Mingqi, and Shen Xin will not cause trouble. ”

Fu Xiuyi sighed and said, "Don't you understand the prince? In those days, I originally asked the Xie family brothers to entertain Princess Ming'an, and Princess Ming'an and the Xie family brothers were in the same place. The prince and the princess are both brothers and sisters, and they know the princess's temperament. Shen Miao and Princess Ming'an have been born, and if Princess Ming'an wants to deal with Shen Miao, it is understandable. It's just that the princess is from Qin after all, and Shen Miao is a young lady from the official family, so it is inconvenient to do it, but the Xie brothers are using it well. ”

Huangfu Hao was stunned and said angrily: "You shouldn't say ......." ”

"The prince doesn't have to be angry. The Xie family brothers originally wanted to cultivate them, and they could also fight in the future, but these two probably didn't have the fate to soar. You will understand the rest of the matter, probably because the Xie brothers made a mistake when they made a move, so it was the two of them who died in the end, and they also affected the princess. ”

Although Huang Fuhao still had a look of disbelief on his face, he had already begun to think about it in his heart. First of all, Shen Miao was kidnapped for no reason, and Huang Fuhao suspected that Princess Ming'an did it, but later saw that Princess Ming'an did not leave the house, and there was no one she knew in Mingqi, so she didn't think much about it. Later, Shen Miao was inexplicably sent back to the Shen Mansion by Princess Rongxin, and then Princess Ming'an and the Xie brothers had an accident.

Fu Xiuyi is right, Princess Ming'an is a very resentful character, if she had been embarrassed by Shen Miao before, she would indeed not have ended this matter so easily. In those days, it was true that the Xie brothers often appeared in the mansion, if it was for this reason, it would be in the past. But Shen Miao really has such great ability? Huangfu Hao always felt that something was wrong in his heart, that is, Shen Xin loved Shen Miao and had such ability, but it was not a wise move to openly confront the princess of a country. Especially now that Shen Xin has just returned to Beijing, many things are still unstable...... Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about other people in the Shen family, is Shen Xin so stupid?

Later, Fu Xiuyi said something, but Huangfu Hao didn't listen to anything. He felt that what Fu Xiuyi said made some sense, but he was hesitant in his heart. Seeing that Huangfu Hao was uneasy, Fu Xiuyi didn't say anything more later. After Fu Xiuyi left, Pei Lang walked out from behind the screen.

"Your Highness, what do you mean by this?" Pei Lang asked, "Why do you want to lead the conversation to the Shen family?"

Fu Xiuyi glanced at Pei Lang, shook his head and said, "Mr. doesn't know, I thought that Shen Miao might have something to do with King Rui of Da Liang." ”

Pei Lang's heart jumped, but his face was light, and he said, "Your Highness is still hesitating about the affairs of the prince's mansion." King Rui is a native of the Liang Dynasty, and Shen Miao also left Beijing two years ago, and there is no possibility that the two will know each other. If you get acquainted and have a friendship in just a few months, it is too far-fetched. ”

"I know that Mr. thinks this is incredible," Fu Xiuyi said, "but I have an intuition. There was something strange between Shen Miao and Rui Wang. There are many coincidences happening these days. It is precisely because if Shen Miao and Rui Wang have only become acquainted in just a few months, it is even more worthy of scrutiny. King Rui is arrogant, even his father is not easy to approach, and I also want to know what Shen Miao is capable of. ”

Pei Lang frowned and asked, "What does that have to do with Prince Qin today?"

Fu Xiuyi smiled and looked at Pei Lang: "Mr. thinks that Shen Miao can't do this alone, and Shen Xin is not a hot-headed impulsive person, just relying on the Shen family, he won't do such a rash murder and overselling things." ”

Pei Lang suddenly said: "Could it be that His Royal Highness thinks ......"

"Not bad. Fu Xiuyi said: "I suspect that this matter was done by King Rui. ”

Pei Lang stopped talking, and seeing that Pei Lang was silent, Fu Xiuyi took the initiative to mention it, and he said: "King Rui is arrogant, and there are many people who are cool and different. I think that if you rely on King Rui's ability, killing a princess is just a matter of being captured. It's just that as both you and I know, King Rui and Princess Ming'an have no grievances, and they have nothing to do with the Xie family. But if it's because of Shen Miao, everything makes sense. He smiled faintly: "Although there is a saying in this world that Chong Guan is angry and angry, but I don't think so, there must be some special relationship between King Rui and Shen Miao." ”

"So His Royal Highness asked Prince Qin to make a move, in order to lure the snake out of the hole?" Pei Lang asked.

"Not bad. Fu Xiuyi said with a smile: "Huangfu Hao is suspicious by nature, even if he doesn't believe my words, he will have more doubts in his heart, and he will always try to test it one day." Aim all the fingers at the Shen family, if King Rui is really involved with Shen Miao, he will definitely take action, and he will also know the relationship between the two of them when he intervenes, and then make other plans. ”

Pei Lang asked: "Then what if King Rui didn't make a move?"

"It's okay," Fu Xiuyi said: "If King Rui hadn't made a move, the Shen family had gone too far these days, and it would be a good thing for us to let Huangfu Hao deal with the Shen family and suppress the strength of the Shen family." ”

"Has His Highness already made up his mind to suppress the Shen family?" Pei Lang looked at him.

"If you can't use it for me, you won't leave any trouble. Fu Xiuyi smiled gently, but his tone was very cold. He turned his head to look at Pei Lang and said, "In the future, Mr. Amorous will have to give advice." ”

Pei Lang praised again and again that he didn't dare.

When Fu Xiuyi left and Pei Lang returned to his room, he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the light in front of him.

Two years ago, Shen Miao asked him to lurk beside Fu Xiuyi as an eyeliner, and Pei Lang had no choice but to go. He also has some skills, and he was lucky to get Fu Xiuyi's blue eyes, and now Fu Xiuyi regards Pei Lang even more

The first confidant. Even today, with Huangfu Hao's secret exploration of flowers, Fu Xiuyi did not deceive Pei Lang at all, but trusted him very much.

Maybe this is really Fu Xiuyi's defenselessness against Pei Lang, of course, maybe it is Fu Xiuyi's mastery of the subordination, ordinary people will inevitably have more loyalty when they see their master treating themselves so well, if Pei Lang is not Shen Miao's person.

The more he gets along with Fu Xiuyi, the more Pei Lang is amazed, Fu Xiuyi is indeed a man with a strong heart, and he has the viciousness of a husband, hiding a knife in his smile or being willing to be mediocre, which is indeed the means that an emperor should have. Pei Lang even felt that if he waited for a few years or more than ten years, the world would eventually fall into the hands of Fu Xiuyi, and Fu Xiuyi would eventually become the master of the world. For no other reason, among the princes of Ming Qi, there is no one more suitable for this position than Fu Xiuyi.

But Shen Miao wanted to go against Fu Xiuyi, Pei Lang was not optimistic about Shen Miao, that is, he was not optimistic about himself. It wasn't that he had selfishly thought about simply defecting, but Shen Miao firmly grasped his death hole. So this little bit of unwillingness and reluctance had to drift away with the wind. He glanced out the window, Fu Xiuyi treated him very well, a separate house, and no eyeliner to put on guard. Pei Lang took a piece of paper from the table, grinded the pen, and wrote quickly.

The night was like ink, in the Rui Wang's mansion, Xie Jingxing was teasing the white tiger under his feet, the white tiger had eaten a lot recently, and was fed by Ji Yushu five times a day, and his body began to swell rapidly, like an out-and-out hairball. Even when it comes to sprinkling joy, it is not as smart as in the past, and it always looks a little stupid. Xie Jingxing is such a picky person, even if he is too lazy to hug, he is quite perfunctory when he teases.

A man who looked like a guard walked outside, much younger than the iron coat, he took out a letter from his bosom, handed it to Xie Jingxing, and said: "This is a letter from King Ding's mansion, from King Ding's staff Pei Lang, to be sent to Miss Shen Wu of the Shen Mansion." ”

Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows, took out the letter paper from the confident cover, quickly glanced at it, and when he swept to the last line, he suddenly raised his lips, in the night, his eyebrows were handsome and picturesque, and his purple and gold robe was brilliant, like a person in a painting in a brocade robe at night. It was obviously a casual smile, but Nanqi shivered slightly, sensitively sensing that the master was unhappy again.

The last line reads: "Be sure to stay away from the King."

Brother Xie: It's endless!(╰_╯)
