Chapter Forty-Eight: The Murderer Is Myself?
"This king is only suspicious, but since the county lord thinks it is strange, this king can check this matter, perhaps, there will be a result soon."
Lingyu fell silent.
She always had a feeling that this incident was related to Murong Cheyun, but she never found evidence.
"Then please ask Your Highness to help you check."
"No problem, this king will deal with this matter as soon as possible." Murong Cheyun nodded.
After Murong Cheyun left, Lingyu sat at the table and lost his mind for a long time.
"County Lord."
Tsui Er walked into the room and put dinner on the table.
Lingyu said: "Cui'er, you say...... Is this related to the prince? “
Cui'er was surprised: "This ...... Why does the county lord think so? “
Lingyu sighed: "Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a gentleman, he is also a very intelligent person, how could he not think of this incident?" Moreover, he also specially sent the guard named Qingshan to contact me, and he clearly wanted to use me to deal with Murong Qianqian. It's just a pity that he didn't expect Murong Qianqian to be dead. “
Cui'er said: "But what does this have to do with the prince?" “
Lingyu said, "Do you remember the man I saw at Steward Li's house yesterday?" “
Cui'er nodded.
Lingyu continued: "He has a great relationship with the prince. I think that Murong Qianqian's death must have nothing to do with him, so he let Qingshan follow me. “
Cui'er thought for a while and said, "Although the prince is arrogant, he is not a bad person, the county lord might as well look for him again, maybe there will be unexpected gains!" “
Lingyu shook her head.
Murong Qianqian is dead, and the people around Murong Qianqian have all become rootless duckweed, and they are also the last things Murong Qianqian left her, and she must not use them at will.
"Forget it, I don't want to provoke the prince anymore, besides, the prince's scheming is too complicated, it's better for me to stay away from him."
Cui'er thought for a while and said, "Then, what is the county lord going to do?" “
Lingyu said: "Cui'er, you go and inquire about the prince's recent itinerary." “
"The slave obeys."
......
Lingyu had been waiting, waiting for Murong Cheyun to come to the door, because Murong Cheyun was narrow-minded, and once she offended him, he would definitely find a way to take revenge on her.
She didn't want her identity to be exposed, so she had to find a way to keep Murong Qianqian's death as clean as Murong Cheyun as possible.
However, what she didn't expect was that Murong Cheyun never came.
Murong Qianqian's body was carried back to the princess's mansion, and the funeral was held in a very low-key manner, and few people knew about it.
Murong Cheyun's people did not find a clue, his methods were very subtle, even around the princess's mansion, there was not the slightest trace to be found.
"County Lord, the Eighth Highness has come down."
"What is he here for?"
When Murong Cheyun came, he happened to bump into Lingyu and Cui'er.
"Why are you here?" His brow furrowed, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Lingyu said lightly: "The courtiers came to visit the fourth princess. “
Murong Cheyun snorted coldly: "Do you need to be sneaky to visit the fourth sister?" “
Cui'er was angry in her heart, she didn't expect this Murong Cheyun to be so domineering and arrogant, why did he question his master!
"The county lord should come to see the fourth princess, could it be that His Royal Highness the Eighth thinks there is something wrong with such a thing?" Cui'er said angrily.
Murong Cheyun looked at Cui'er and said, "Are you the prince's person?" “
His words smacked of menace.
Cui'er's heart sank.
Most of the people in the Prince's Mansion are his people, and this Murong Cheyun is really not simple.
"County Lord, you better go out quickly, don't let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince misunderstand." Cui'er reminded in a whisper.
Murong Cheyun smiled coldly, ignored Cui'er, and walked straight into the princess's mansion.
"The prince has arrived--"
The eunuch's shrill voice spread throughout the Prince's Mansion.
Murong Cheyun strode to the lobby of the princess's mansion, and saw Murong Haoxuan sitting in the first place at a glance.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down quite early." Murong Cheyun said.
"It's a little worse than the Eighth Prince." Murong Haoxuan looked at him and replied indifferently.
"Oh?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really likes to joke." Murong Cheyun sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
The two of them didn't match each other before, so they weren't warm with each other.
"I heard that the seventh brother is seriously ill, I don't know what the situation is now?"
"Can't die, can't die." Murong Cheyun replied nonchalantly.
"That's a shame." Murong Haoxuan said, "However, I see that the imperial doctor is helpless, presumably, he will not live long." “
Murong Cheyun sneered: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this, this king is also the eighth prince of the emperor's own title, and my father is still counting on this king to share his worries." “
Murong Haoxuan said: "It's just a false name." “
Murong Cheyun said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, if my father knows that you are this kind of person, I am afraid that he will be very disappointed in you, I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can know the mistake?" “
Murong Haoxuan said: "Know your mistake? What's wrong with Lone? “
Murong Cheyun said: "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know how angry your father will be if you do this?" He has put his hope in you, and if you do something wrong, won't you disappoint your father? “
Murong Haoxuan smiled coldly.
"Lone won't let anyone down!"
Murong Cheyun said: "In this case, this king wants to see how many catties and taels His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has!" “
The two went toe-to-toe with each other, and an undercurrent quietly spread.
Lingyu watched the two of them fight each other, and her heart was anxious.
"Two highnesses, please calm your anger, now the mourning period of the fourth princess has not yet expired, and the first one is in the fourth princess's mansion, don't hurt the harmony, otherwise it will be bad for anyone." Lingyu stood up and dissuaded.
When the two of them heard this, they stopped arguing and sat down.
"The Seventh Prince's body has recovered?" Murong Cheyun asked suddenly.
Lingyu's heart was full of alarm bells, could he doubt himself?
"His Royal Highness's body has recovered as before, but he is still in a coma."
"Oh? Don't know when he'll wake up? “
Lingyu shook her head.
"The imperial physicians said that the Seventh Highness needs to recuperate and should not be disturbed, therefore, the condition of the Seventh Highness has not been told to the imperial doctor for the time being, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not need to worry."
The corners of Murong Cheyun's mouth were hooked, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Oh? What is the identity of the seventh brother, he can't see anyone from the Tai Hospital casually, so what is the condition of the seventh brother? “
Lingyu said: "This ...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should know better than me. His Royal Highness the Seventh was just suffering from the wind cold, which was not serious and was not in the way. “
"Oh?" Murong Cheyun didn't seem to believe this, and he continued to ask, "Is it true?" “
"Of course!"
"In that case, what happened to the seventh brother's illness?"
Lingyu's heart jumped, what did he want to do with such relentless pursuit?
"The day before yesterday, I went to visit the Seventh Highness, and the imperial doctor said that the Seventh Highness's body is fine."
"Oh? Then Lone can rest assured, Lone has a few bottles of good healing medicine here, you can send someone to send it to the seventh brother! “
Lingyu sneered in his heart, did he want to take this opportunity to attack the authority of the Eighth Prince?
Murong Haoxuan did have some healing elixirs on his body, but these were all used by him to bribe those court officials, if it was sent to the Seventh Prince, wouldn't it be digging his own grave?
No matter what, Lingyu didn't dare to offend Murong Haoxuan, so she smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince's kindness, I understand it in my heart, but His Royal Highness's body is really not suitable for drug treatment, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't dislike it, I will visit His Royal Highness the Seventh another day and send medicine to His Royal Highness, what does His Highness think?" “
Murong Cheyun said: "Then there will be Ling'er." “
Lingyu secretly scolded in her heart, you bastard, you blatantly bully people and pretend to ask for credit, it's really shameless!
She turned around and wanted to leave, but Murong Haoxuan stopped her: "Ling'er, please stay." “
Lingyu stopped, turned around, and said, "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince else commands?" “
"I heard that Ling'er is good at medical skills, I don't know what the condition of the seventh brother is, and whether Ling'er needs to diagnose the pulse."
Lingyu was stunned for a moment, and said: "Thank you for Your Highness's care, Ling'er doesn't dare to speculate, but His Royal Highness's body is indeed not as serious as the outside world has rumored, and he only needs to recuperate for a period of time to heal." “
"Oh?" Murong Haoxuan was interested, "In this way, the seventh brother's injuries have fully recovered?" “
Lingyu nodded: "Yes." “
"The seventh brother's injuries have completely healed, why don't you go back to the palace to face the saint?"
"Because his injuries are no longer in trouble, His Highness the Seventh wants to rest more."
Murong Haoxuan said: "That's ......"
"Is there anything else to do, Your Highness? If there is nothing to do, then Lingyu will leave first. “
Murong Haoxuan said: "That lonely will not be retained, but the seventh brother's body has not recovered yet, and he still needs someone to take care of him, and you often come to the mansion to walk around." “
"Ling'er knows, Ling'er retires."
Lingyu left in a hurry, and Murong Haoxuan's expression became gloomy.
"Ling'er, what are you doing?" He muttered to himself in a low voice.
In this matter, he will never allow Lingyu to get involved again!
Lingyu arrived at the carriage, and Cui'er couldn't help but say: "Why does the Seventh Prince have to find the county lord to deliver medicine, obviously the county lord is not too familiar with the Seventh Highness." “
Lingyu frowned slightly: "I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very problematic, what do you think?" “
"Lord, you say...... Could it be that His Highness the Seventh is hiding something? Cui'er said hesitantly, "The Seventh Highness has been lively before, but now he suddenly fell ill, there must be a purpose!" “
Lingyu pondered for a moment and said, "Anyway, we still have to be on guard against His Royal Highness the Prince, this time, he is determined to clean up His Royal Highness the Seventh." Not only that, but he also has to deal with the crown prince of the Sixth Prince, in the next big game of chess. “
Lingyu sat on the sedan chair and closed her eyes to recuperate, and her mind couldn't help but think of those gentle eyes like water.
He's doing now?
Lingyu was faintly worried in her heart.
When Lingyu arrived at the garden where Murong Cheyu lived, Murong Cheyu was resting on the bed.
His cheeks were pale, his eyes were closed, and his lips were bloodless.
