Cheng Mo died.

As soon as Xia Chu received the news that there was an accident in the Criminal Department, he had a very bad premonition.

When he arrived at the punishment department, what he saw was a cold corpse.

It's Cheng Mo.

Xia Chuyi didn't have any special sympathy for Cheng Mo, but this person was that woman's subordinate.

Judging from that woman's connivance and favor to Qin Liniang, if Cheng Mo died, she would never give up, and even be crazy.

"Lord Lu, I don't know what's going on?" Xia Chuyi asked coldly.

"Does the county king recognize this person?" Even if Lu Xuan was wearing an official uniform, he could not hide that ethereal fairy aura, as if it was extremely incommensurate with a bloody place like the prison of the Criminal Department.

His voice was so handsome and elegant that it was hard to imagine what it would be like for such a voice to discuss a bloody case in such a place.

"I don't know." Xia Chuyi replied lightly.

"I heard that I lost something in the princess's mansion last night, and the king of the county took someone to look for it all night,...... Coincidentally, this morning, as soon as I arrived at the Yamen, I heard people talk about what had happened. After careful inquiry, I found out that there was a dead body that was quietly thrown into the prison of the Criminal Department, and on his body, a rare night pearl was also found, this night pearl was the night pearl given by the emperor when Her Royal Highness the eldest princess returned from the victory of Western Xia, and the emperor gave it the night pearl named Xinghai. After Lu Xuan finished speaking, he ordered someone to hand over a box, opened the box, and handed it to Xia Chuyi in person.

And as soon as Xia Chu saw the night pearl, he understood everything.

That's right, this night pearl is indeed unique in this world, only this one, but this night pearl has allusions.

It was given by the emperor to Su Yiqing, but this night pearl came from the tribute of the Western Xia, and after the Western Xia reached a peace agreement with the Dongsheng Kingdom, the tribute of this night pearl was the sincerity of the peace talks. And in that peace talks, Qinghui contributed a lot. Therefore, this night pearl symbolizes the peace agreement between the two sides, and also symbolizes the love between Shu Yiqing and Qinghui, so the emperor gave this night pearl to Shu Yiqing, saying that he agreed to their family affairs and wanted to give them marriage.

This night pearl is equivalent to the love token between Yi Qing and Qing Hui.

However, the marriage went wrong, and it finally fell through.

Later, when he and Qingyu were married, Su Yiqing sent this night pearl to the Prime Minister's Mansion along with the token of the marriage, and "returning the pearl" also means that she and Qinghui have completely broken off their relationship.

So this night pearl has been left in the Prime Minister's Mansion, of course, outsiders don't know about this matter.

But now, this night pearl appeared next to Cheng Mo, who was already dead.

Illustrate...... Last night, when he claimed that the princess's mansion had lost something and searched the city on a large scale, Xiao Wan also sent someone to the prime minister's mansion to steal the night pearl, and then put the night pearl by Cheng Mo's side and sent it to the criminal department.

In this way, to warn Qing Yu that she already knew about the assassination, and also let Qing Yu see who won and who lost at the moment of the official game.

And using this night pearl as a raft is also testing his attitude to see if he is standing on Qingyu's side.

Heh, Xia Chuyi really only thought that Xiao Wan was smart in the past, but she didn't expect that she still had such a deep scheming, and she could calculate it so clearly every step.

However, Xia Chuyi tugged at the corners of his lips.
