Chapter 4 Calculation
"The prince confessed that it was instructed by Prince Yu, and he only said it with his last breath, but the young lady you said was also a ruthless person, and the prisoner was miserable below, and it is estimated that he has no ability to do that when he is alive, he also has a few broken ribs in his chest." After speaking, Xu Shi respectfully presented the guilty words of the painting.
The corners of Mu Linghan's mouth smiled slightly, and after a few glances at the criminal statements in front of him, he tore up the testimony, and when he saw Mu Linghan's behavior, Xu Shi immediately knelt down and said: "The subordinates are incompetent, and they failed to let him confess the real mastermind, and the subordinates are at the mercy of the prince." ”
"It's okay, let's go down." Mu Linghan waved his hand and said.
"Yes" Xu Shi looked incredulous, but he didn't have to face the wrath of the thunder, so he naturally slipped away, for fear that someone would regret it if he ran late.
"Wait, did you find any clues where that light appeared before?"
Xu Shi was so frightened at this moment that he replied: "I only found a woman's headdress at the scene, but that headdress is available to many female relatives in the entire capital, and my subordinates are trying to narrow the scope."
"Let's go" Mu Linghan didn't say anything anymore when he heard this, and waved his hand back.
Mu Linghan walked to the bed and looked at the bright moon, the figure of the woman's words and deeds during the day came to his mind, the man's face was drowned in the dark night, and he couldn't see his joy and anger clearly, and under the moonlight, he only saw the shadow of the tall side face reflected by the window.
In the Xiao Mansion, Meng Yao was dressed in a white shirt and looked at the bright moon in the sky that was covered by dark clouds, and repeatedly recited what the monk said during the day - just do whatever you want, fall into deep thought, can you really get what you want to rehabilitate your father and brother in the future, and find out the people who framed the Gu family one by one and make them pay, thinking about the face of the sixth prince during the day, suddenly popping out, scared himself into a spirit, and he had nothing to think about what the demon king was doing at night.
In Chen's house, Chen's experience of the high-ranking monk during the day was very uneasy, and he wondered in his heart that he couldn't let Meng Yao stay in the mansion for too long, and when she grew stronger and found a good husband, she would have to climb on her head completely.
After a few days, Chen wanted to take Meng Yao to visit Xungui on the pretext of regaining consciousness, and get acquainted with each other in front of the noble ladies so that he could finally find a suitable husband.
Prime Minister Xiao Cheng knew that he was naturally quite admired, and repeatedly exaggerated that the Chen family had the demeanor of being the head of the house, and also intimately asked Meng Yao to tell her eldest mother not to endure it when she was wronged outside.
Nan Lian listened with a burst of jealousy in her heart, her father would only educate herself not to cause trouble when she went out, and she was full of love and care for Meng Yao. But when I thought of the plan that my mother said, and thought that Meng Yao would be ruined today, I temporarily let go of my dissatisfaction.
When you come to the Changwang Mansion, you will see the splendid decoration, which is very magnificent. However, before being reborn, as the daughter of a general, she even entered the palace a few times, and she came to this Changwang Mansion no less than a few times, and she was even very familiar with the route, and compared to the magnificence of the palace, this place is simply a small thing. So he followed behind Chen with a calm face.
Nan Lian paid attention to Meng Yao's reaction, and couldn't imagine that a slut who stayed at home saw this scenery that was more luxurious than the match, since he was so calm, he couldn't help but be shocked and envious when he saw it at the beginning, and he originally wanted to see Meng Yao's ignorant stupid look, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face so much.
Meng Yao and his entourage sat down in the banquet under the guidance of the maid, waiting for the banquet to begin, when suddenly a small servant reported from outside: "The sixth prince has arrived"
Hearing the sound of Meng Yao through the male and female barrier saw a familiar figure slowly into the banquet, the eldest king was very surprised when he heard the small servant's report, and quickly left the table to greet the sixth prince: "Lord Wang, what kind of wind is blowing you here, greet me early so that I can go to the gate to meet you"
"Don't be like this, the eldest king is the owner and is responsible for receiving a group of guests, how can I trouble you to go out to greet you in person" Seeing the nervous looks of the guests, Mu Linghan said very modestly and amiably: "Everyone, just be an ordinary banquet." ”
The eldest king immediately ordered his subordinates to bring tables and chairs for the six princes to sit on his left, and the sound of staggering came from the men's seat, and the nobles in the women's seat looked at the six princes from time to time, showing the expression of a fan, and even Xiao Nanlian looked at the deer in the direction of the sixth prince, and for a time the entire women's seat was talking about the great achievements and handsome appearance of the six princes, so lively.
Meng Yao couldn't help but call out to the gods in her heart, she couldn't imagine that since that demon king was so popular with the nobles of the capital, when a person was powerful and beautiful, even if he had a brutal temperament, he could arouse the admiration of countless ignorant girls.
But at this moment, Meng Yao didn't think so much about emotion, and wondered in his heart how the Chen family wanted to frame himself when he brought him, saying that he would bring me to find a good husband with a mixed face, this excuse Meng Yao didn't believe it, Chen couldn't wait to eat himself alive, how could he really think about his life's events.
Just thinking about being distracted, a maid walked towards herself in a dignified manner, and a stumbling to pour tea on herself, and when Meng Yao reacted, it was too late, the tea instantly soaked her clothes, and the maid hurriedly knelt down to apologize, and the eldest princess was immediately worried when she saw it, and apologized and asked the maid to take it down to change some clean clothes.
Meng Yao didn't panic at all, quietly watching everyone's reactions, some gloating, some worried, and some watchers, while the Chen family nodded with a grateful look of the eldest princess, and Nan Lian lowered her head to eat and ate, unable to see her expression clearly. At this moment, Meng Yao had already guessed most of them, how well-trained the maid of the Changwang Mansion was and how could she make such a mistake, and couldn't help but laugh at the Chen family for being really stupid, since she dared to make this happen in the Changwang Mansion, I hope that the eldest princess will not be an insider and a participant.
Meng Yao followed the maid's leadership to the more and more rare courtyard, but Meng Yao was too familiar with the terrain here, so naturally she didn't panic at all, but in order not to make the maid suspicious, she still asked softly: "Dare to ask if this dressing room is set up in such a secluded place?" ”
The maid had already prepared her words and replied calmly: "Because there is a banquet today and there are male guests, I chose this remote place for the privacy of the young ladies." ”
"No wonder, Mrs. Changwang is really thoughtful"
After a while, Meng Yao was led to a room, and the maid saluted respectfully and said, "Let's find new clothes for Miss Xiao, wait for a while." With that, he walked out the door and closed the door.
Meng Yao looked around, smelled a strange fragrance in the room, and suddenly felt bad, so she quickly covered her mouth and nose with the corner of her clothes wet with tea while she didn't inhale much.
The door was suddenly opened and a man came in, the man walked towards Meng Yao who was lying on the bed, looking at the upper half of his face that was not covered by Meng Yao's sleeves, he couldn't help but feel itchy, and stretched out his hand towards Meng Yao. When the man's hand was about to touch Meng Yao's face, Meng Yao opened her eyes suddenly. The man reacted and wanted to use brute force to control Meng Yao, only to see Meng Yao turn over and dodge with a dexterous turn and mercilessly stretched out his foot and kicked the man's head, the man who was hit the head fell to the ground in an instant, and Meng Yao took advantage of the victory to chase and beat the man without the ability to fight back.
Seeing that the man was beaten to the point of dying and couldn't make the next move, Meng Yao took a rope to tie the mosquito curtain to tie the man's hands and feet, and after confirming that the man couldn't escape at all, he went out to find the figure of the maid just now.
Taking advantage of the action of closing the door, someone suddenly covered Meng Yao's mouth and nose from behind, Meng Yao struggled hard, only to see the male voice that was so familiar that it couldn't be familiar anymore whispered in Meng Yao's ear: "Miss Xiao, it's not like letting the Prime Minister's Mansion get into trouble." ”
