"Your Highness, Your Highness, please." Father-in-law Dai shook off the dust at the door, turned around and led the way.

The two walked straight to the bed in the innermost room, facing Qi Jinglin's silhouette through the curtain. There was no such thing as the old seat, and the two stood side by side.

Could it be that someone else on the bed is holding a knife against Qi Jinglin's neck? Otherwise, why can't you even show your face?

"Dade, you step down first, everyone step down." On the bed, Qi Jinglin commanded weakly.

Father-in-law Dai was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't want to leave, he let the other subordinates retreat first, and slowly retreated, looking at the bed very uneasily.

Qi Jinglin coughed, which was regarded as urging.

Only then did Grandpa Dai retreat.

Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyi exchanged glances, this Dai De was wrong, it was probably sent by Gao Manpeng to spy on the prince.

Although there were only his own people in the room, Pei Wuyi still couldn't go beyond the point of going directly to open the curtain.

Even when the two had a good personal relationship, Pei Wuyi couldn't do it, let alone now.

"Pei Qing said that Yao'er's case has another inside story, let's talk about it, what is the inside story." Qi Jinglin is still listless.

"Your Highness, do you remember the dart head Qu Zhijie?" Pei Wuyi still maintained the humility and arrogance of the last meeting.

"Remember, you said that Qu Zhijie was imprisoned for the shortest time and had the best health, so he recovered first. Does he have any problems? ”

"In the final analysis, it's Qu Zhijie who I'm involved in. Qi Yao's face drew a portrait of me according to her description, but he inadvertently drew Qu Zhijie's charm and said it. That's why Qi Yao chose Qu Zhijie as the goal. ”

"So what?"

"This is what the minister said." Pei Wuyi summed it up generously.

Qi Jinglin coughed angrily, and finally had emotions in his tone, and said angrily: "Pei Wuying, you are bold!" ”

"Your Highness is angry, but this is indeed what the minister has not mentioned to His Highness before - the inside story."

Pei Wuxian is serious, and the subtext is: I just lied to you, and I won't be able to see you at all if I don't lie to you. What are you going to do with me?

Qi Jinglin adjusted his breathing and calmed down, "Okay, Pei Wuyi, don't you have to see this palace, say it, what else do you have to say." ”

"What's going on with Cheng Minrong and the princess? Is His Highness under house arrest? Pei Wuyi was blunt.

Qi Jinglin snorted coldly, "Min Rong confessed to me that she is from the Thousand Machines Pavilion. The Pavilion Master of the Thousand Machines Pavilion wears an iron-headed mask, and his identity is unknown, but he is bent on assassinating me. Oh yes, Yu Sizhi should have known about this for a long time.

"Min Rong fell in love with me, betrayed the Thousand Machines Pavilion, and even though he did not die under the Seven Days Dementor Pill, he was hunted down as a traitor. In the East Palace, there are not only the meticulous works of Gonggong Gao, but also other killers sent by the Thousand Machine Pavilion to hide.

"A month ago, the killer operation, Min Rong almost died. As a last resort, the palace had no choice but to ask the envoys of the Great Britain Kingdom for help, and in the name of marriage, let him take Minrong to a safe place to recuperate from his injuries for a while. ”

Sure enough, Cheng Minrong's marriage is another hidden story. Yu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief.

"What about the Prince? How could he suddenly have a worsening cough? Yu Qingfeng asked.

"Hmph, the cough is getting worse, that's just an excuse to the outside world. The assassination of Min Rong by the fine work hidden in the East Palace was rescued by the prince in time, but he was seriously injured. A few days after Min Rong left, Wang Gonggong still couldn't hold on and went to ......"

Qi Jinglin's voice choked, but he quickly held back and returned to normal.

"It's really embarrassing for Your Highness."

Yu Qingfeng is quite sympathetic, Qi Jinglin has really been in trouble recently: first, his sister died; then broke up with his friend Pei Wuyi; Then there is the woman she loves, who almost dies, and has to be separated from her in order to protect her; In the end, even the prince of his confidants died. It's no wonder that he was so angry that he fell ill.

"Please mourn Your Highness." Pei Wuxian was finally moved, and changed his cold tone.

Qi Jinglin sighed for a long time, "This palace plans to recuperate for a while, wait until the body recovers, and then personally investigate the truth." This matter will no longer bother Master Pei from now on. ”

Yu Qingfeng pouted, Qi Jinglin had experienced so much, and he was still angry with Pei Wuxing. This is different from Qi Jinglin in Pei Wuyi's speculation, this qi is not like it can be dissipated in a month or two.

If you are a true friend, how can you still be angry and not say a word?

"Your Highness, to investigate the death of the former queen, if there are ministers who can ......"

"No need." Qi Jinglin interrupted Pei Wuyi and dismantled the steps that Pei Wuyi had set up with his own hands.

Yu Qingfeng whispered to Qi Jinglin: "Your Highness has suffered so much, and you are in a bad mood, don't worry about him." Let's get a little bit. ”

Pei Wuyi was not used to Qi Jinglin at all, and finally relented, but the other party didn't appreciate it, and he couldn't get over it on his face.

"In that case," Pei Wuyi resumed his cold tone again, "Since His Highness insists on drawing a line with the minister, then for the sake of fairness, the minister has ascertained the identity of the lord of the deceased regiment for His Highness, and His Highness should also fulfill his promise to the minister." ”

Qi Jinglin reacted for a moment, and then the mood that had just calmed down exploded again, grabbed the curtain, pulled it hard, and wanted to rush off the bed immediately. As a result, because the movement was suddenly too violent, I was dizzy for a while, and I hurriedly fixed it to relieve it.

Qi Jinglin, who had eased up slightly, showed half of his face, half of his face and half of his face angrily, "Pei Wuyi, you still dare to bargain with this palace!" You, you are really pampered and arrogant, presumptuous, presumptuous! ”

Yu Qingfeng pulled Pei Wuyi's sleeve, wanting him to coax Qi Jinglin. She could see that Qi Jinglin was really angry, at least she had never seen Qi Jinglin show such an angry face.

Pei Wuyi was unmoved, with a straight face, and bargained calmly, "Since His Royal Highness wants to draw a clear line with his ministers and break off friendship, then it is better not to owe each other." ”

Qi Jinglin coughed incessantly, so angry that he couldn't speak.

Pei Wuyi continued to arch the fire, "Your Highness, you know what the minister is asking for, as the minister said before, please ask Your Highness to ask Your Majesty for marriage." ”

"What are you kidding? Pei Wuyi, do you think this is a matter of this palace's words? Do you know Yu Sizhi's origin! ”

Pei Wuyi closed his eyes in pain, and opened his eyes after taking a deep breath, "Your Highness, the minister's background is not noble, and it is just right to be worthy of Yu Sizhi." ”

Yu Qingfeng's heart trembled.

Qi Jinglin snorted coldly, "This palace naturally understands, but you are now a Dali Siqing, and your marriage must be the right one." ”

"Your Highness is unwilling to fulfill his promise?" Pei Wuyi is insatiable and aggressive.

Qi Jinglin sat back in his place and gradually calmed down, "Lord Pei also failed to fulfill his promise to protect the sister of the palace, didn't he?" ”

Pei Wuxian snorted coldly, and said with a wry smile helplessly: "The minister thought that after such a long time, His Highness would be able to figure it out. Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness was obsessed, and the matter of Princess Pingyao was worthy of his heart. Sure enough, the Tao is different, and they don't conspire with each other. ”

"That's right, the Tao is not the same!" Qi Jinglin repeated.

"In that case, needless to say, the minister will retire." Pei Wuxian took Yu Qingfeng's hand, turned around and left.

Yu Qingfeng grabbed Pei Wuyi, "Don't, Your Highness has been hit one after another, why do you have to fall into the well at this time?" ”

"Didn't you think of turning to me for help after successive blows? It shows my place in his heart. It's because I'm too naïve, the prince and the courtiers, it's just taking advantage of each other. Above the throne, there is only power, where is friendship? ”

After Pei Wuyi finished speaking, he glared fiercely at Qi Jinglin's silhouette on the bed.

Pei Wuyi's glance made Yu Qingfeng completely speechless, because Pei Wuyi's eyes were cold to the freezing point, as if the person over there had never been a friend, but a heinous enemy.

The two exited the dormitory and greeted Dai's father-in-law, who was waiting at the door.

"Master Pei, Your Highness has ...... Has His Highness's condition changed? Grandpa Dai asked worriedly.

Pei Wuyi kept his feet and sent Father-in-law Dai away, "Please tell Your Highness that Dali Temple will not come to the East Palace to disturb you again." ”

Without taking a few steps, Yu Qingfeng just wanted to mention Qi Jinglin to Pei Wuyi, her eyes inadvertently swept over a dodging figure not far away, it was she who hooked her little finger to attract the young guard.

The reason why he was called over was because the little guard had evidence of her bribery in his hand, which was considered a handle, and could be used as a blackmail, and he could exchange some truth from his mouth, and the truth would not cost money.

By the way, take back that ingot.

Yu Qingfeng walked quickly to the rockery where the little guard was hiding.

Pei Wuxian walked all the way and watched all the way to avoid being followed and eavesdropped again.

"Yu Si forgives the sin, Yu Si forgives the sin, the little one should die, he doesn't know Taishan with his eyes......" The little guard knelt down, kowtowed again and again, and offered the ingot of silver with both hands.

Yu Qingfeng's eyes opened when he saw the money, not to mention that it was his own money, and his own money, which was returned to the original owner by others, was about to reach out and get it back.

"You can take the silver, and you can avoid the crime of blindness and bribery," Pei Wuxian raised his hand and grabbed Yu Qingfeng's hand, preventing her from getting her money back, and said to the kneeling little guard, "The premise is to answer the official's questions truthfully." ”

The little guard raised his head, looked back and forth at Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyi in disbelief, and took back the silver in his hand.

Yu Qingfeng pursed his mouth, Pei Wuyi is really generous to others, if it is not his silver, he is really not distressed.

"Was there any abnormality before the prince died?" Pei Wuyi asked.

The little guard tilted his head and thought for a while, "Well, I'm just a little guard, and I don't often see princes." ”

Pei Wuyi was disappointed, "What about other abnormalities?" If you can't think of it, the money will be returned. ”

Yu Qingfeng's mouth became grinning, and she reached out again to ask for money.

The little guard saw Yu Qingfeng stretching out his hand, and hurriedly scratched his head and meditated, "That, that, ah, there is!" ”

"What's up?" Yu Qingfeng asked.

"The night before the prince died of illness, there were assassins in the East Palace! At that time, Commander Xiao told us to arrest the assassins, and I followed the eldest brothers to the east gate, and saw an assassin with strong martial arts flying over the wall and jumping over the wall! ”

Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyi glanced at each other, thinking, isn't it the assassin who Qi Jinglin said about assassinating Cheng Minrong?

But it's not right, according to the timeline, it should be a month ago Cheng Minrong was assassinated by the assassins of the Thousand Machine Pavilion, 20 days ago Cheng Minrong left with the envoy, and the prince died of illness half a month ago.

The day before the prince died of illness, there was an assassin in the East Palace, could it be that this assassin went to kill the prince?

"That Assassin was very perverse, he was very light, and he jumped off the wall and flew away. But he left something behind, it should be said, that thing fell from him. "The little guard is a fool.

"What's that?" Yu Qingfeng's intuition must be the key.

The little guard pursed his lips and looked at Yu Qingfeng's purse expectantly.
