Beauty on the side

Chapter 031 Banquet 2

I stared in that direction and saw a Nuo dancer at the far end turn around and sink into the darkness. That place happened to be between the dark light of the pillar of fire, and there was no one sitting there.

At this time, everyone was enjoying the dance happily, and no one seemed to notice this detail. I secretly looked at Princess Qin and Li Shimin and thought that Princess Qin must be safe beside Li Shimin, so I quietly retreated and turned out of the square.

Following the shadow of the Nuo dancer, he actually came to the Chengqian Hall. I am even more doubtful and have a trace of ominous foreboding. I followed him into Chengqian Hall. The direction he went was Li Shimin's bedroom. I lay behind the door and peeked at it. I saw him leaning down in front of the desk to check back and turning. I didn't know what he was going to do. At this time, I finally saw him take action and see him take something out of his arms and stuff it into the books that Li Shimin often reads.

I have a hunch that such a thing is not simple, but with my strength, I can't stop it. At this time, it is a critical moment, and far water can't solve the near fire. I was so anxious that I accidentally touched the vase behind me and made a "dang" sound. The person who was originally tiptoed was shocked by the sound and suddenly turned around and found me. There was still time to scream. He had already hugged me and covered my mouth.

"Is that you?" He whispered, but I heard it strangely. Does he know me? While he was shaking, I opened my mouth and bit his palm and pushed him away to run out. A burst of sword light flashed behind him. He caught up with him and suddenly touched another sword light between the sword flying. I tightened my waist and was held in my arms.

When the faint musk comes, I know who it is. Li Shimin held me and made a few moves to him, picked up the sword, and stabbed the sword into his arm from the palm of the Nuo dancer. Everything came so fast that the Nuo dancer rolled on the ground with his sword in his arms, and the bright red blood on the ground made my eyes dizzy. Li Shimin came forward to catch him, but he saw that the dancer grabbed the sword with his left hand, wiped his neck, and threw himself on the ground.

The people on the ground remained motionless and died. Fortunately, Li Shimin appeared in time, otherwise the person who fell into the pool of blood at this moment would be me. Why are you here?" I asked him. Li Shimin glanced at him and helped me say, "That's why you're here."

I glanced at the blood on the ground and tried to stabilize my pace and said, "When Nuo danced, everyone in the floating coat was wearing exotic patterns, but he was the only black, and only he quietly walked out of the Nuo dance team."

I remembered this person's previous action on the desk. I looked at Li Shimin and was about to come forward to bully a figure nearby. We were alert that the person who came was Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng looked at the people on the ground indifferently, opened his hand and made a move back. Immediately, several soldiers came out to drag the bodies of the Nuo dancers. Li Shimin stepped to stop them, and Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows: "He is dead. I'm afraid the second brother can't ask anything."

Li Shimin smiled and shook his head: "Since this person appeared in my Chengqian Hall, it should also be dealt with by me." Li Jiancheng also laughed and said, "Oh? In this case, it will be handled by the second brother. I watched the soldiers retreat and asked Li Jiancheng, "Prince, do you know that someone will break into the Chengqian Hall?" Li Jiancheng smiled softly at me and said, "I observed the strangeness of this man when Nuo Wu was spinning. I also saw you leave. I was afraid that you would be dangerous, so I secretly brought a few soldiers here." After saying that, Li Jiancheng walked into Li Shimin's bedroom by himself.

I followed him with Li Shimin. Li Shimin went to the table and asked me, "Huran, did you see him tamper here?"

I nodded and stood in the place where the Nuo dance clothes stood. Suddenly, I found that several books on the desk were pressed under a golden paper shell. At this time, Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng also saw the paper shell with my eyes. Li Shimin said strangely, "I just read these books today. Why is there such an inexplicable thing?" With that, he picked his sword and lifted the book off the paper shell, which stunned the people present.

The golden paper shell on the desk turned out to be a memorial!

Li Jiancheng asked Li Shimin with a solemn face, "Second brother, what's going on?" Li Shimin frowned at the memorial, and I quickly said, "Prince, we need to find out this matter. Although we don't know why the fake Nuo dancer came here, we can't easily be wasted by others. Li Jiancheng's eyes at me were also full of fierceness: "This memorial is unclear, and I will find out myself."

He is still talking to Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin has come forward to take the memorial. Li Jiancheng was quick-eyed and immediately grabbed it: "Only his father could criticize the memorial, but the second brother still accepted his curiosity." Li Jiancheng looked down at the memorial and ordered the soldiers outside, "Sneakly bring Meng Changde here and don't disturb anyone."

The soldiers outside had to leave, and Li Jiancheng went back to check the body of the Nuo dancer. It seemed that he was looking for some clues, but how did he turn it over? There was nothing hidden in the man. At this time, the soldier came with Meng Changde. Meng Changde was shocked when he saw the people on the ground and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin: "Prince Qin, spare his life!"

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows and said sharply, "Say everything clearly!"

"This, this..." Meng Changde glanced at Li Shimin and continued to kowtow and shouted for mercy. Seeing that he had no intention to tell the truth, Li Jiancheng waved his hand and dragged him to prison for a while.

At this time, Li Shimin looked at everything in front of him, and his face was not moved. He stepped forward and asked Li Jiancheng, "Brother, do you think of this...?" Li Jiancheng turned around and patted him on the shoulder and said, "This matter is very suspicious. Second brother, I think I still need to make it clear to my father.

"I understand." Li Shimin glanced at the body on the ground and stepped out comfortably: "Let's go. I'll go with you after Da Nuo!"

Back to the square, Da Nuo is still going on, and everything seems to have never happened. It's too safe.

Li Shimin suddenly came over and whispered in my ear, "Let's go back to Chengqian Hall first. Don't talk to her about this."

I quickly grabbed him and asked, "Is there any way to deal with it?"

Li Shimin laughed and said, "The clear man is self-clear, and I have nothing to fear!"

Da Nuo lasted for a long time. Li Shimin bowed his head and said a few words to Princess Qin and left with Li Jiancheng. I helped Princess Qin back to Chengqian Hall, and she did not ask anything along the way. After returning to Chengqian Hall for a long time, Princess Qin had not intended to sleep, and Li Shimin had not come back yet. I stayed with Princess Qin anxiously for fear that she would suddenly ask about Li Shimin.

"If you are tired, you can go back first." Princess Qin suddenly said to me. How can I rest assured to go back first? I shook my head and was about to speak. Princess Qin said, "If you don't come back so late, I'm afraid I won't go back to Chengqian Hall tonight."

"Princess Qin..." My heart was hazy. Did she say that she knew or didn't know? Princess Qin patted me on the back of her hand: "Go ahead." I looked into her eyes and immediately woke up and nodded vibly. At this time, someone outside issued an edict: "The emperor's order, don't be a palace girl."

From this, I looked at Princess Qin and left with the eunuch.

Yes, Princess Qin already knows about this. Ask me to leave, which means that I want to secretly explore the progress of this matter, and at this time, the purpose came. I followed the eunuch to the Liangyi Hall. Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng stood on both sides, and Li Yuan was on the main seat. I met Li Yuan. Li Yuan looked at me and said, "It turned out to be you. Did you find the person pretending to be a Nuo dancer in Chengqian Hall at the first time?

"Yes." I answered.

"Tecter about the situation at that time." Li Yuan leaned against the back chair and raised his chin to look at me.

"The maidservant found the same when watching the big Nuo dance, and found that someone had left the dance team, so she secretly followed them, and then came to Chengqian Hall. Later, he was accidentally found by this person. Fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Qin appeared and stopped the trespasser. I answered in detail.

"Oh?" Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and said, "Did you kill him?"

Li Shimin said, "No."

I saw that Li Yuan suspected Li Shimin and quickly explained, "Go back to the emperor, the truant broke off by himself."

Li Yuan didn't seem to hear what I said and looked at Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng stood up and bowed to him respectfully and said, "When my son arrived, the trespasser was dead." Li Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and spread Meng Changde, who was Guan by Li Jiancheng. Seeing this situation, Meng Changde could not stand firm and knelt on the ground and shouted for his life. Li Yuan asked, "What's wrong to spare your life?"

He dared not hide in front of the emperor, not to mention that Meng Changde is a greedy and afraid of death. Meng Changde looked up and shook his chin and said, "The sinner occasionally found that the candles in the palace were endless but paid tribute. He privately pressed down the imperial candles to the Shangshe Bureau to seek benefits from them!"

"Is that all?" Li Jiancheng asked, "What's the connection between the body of the trespasser you saw in Chengqian Hall tonight?" Meng Changde's eyes were full of fear: "The sinner doesn't know who he is!" Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng were shocked. Li Jiancheng said, "Don't make garlic! Didn't you plead guilty immediately when you saw him!"

When Meng Changde heard the words, his face turned white: "No! At that time, I thought that the matter had been discovered and thought that the body was the consequence of your punishment, so I made a mistake for a moment. What's more, the face of the body was stained with blood at that time. How could I recognize its appearance!"

The three of us couldn't help but be shocked by his words. Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "Since you admit the crime of corruption, let's stay in prison first. Come on, drag it down!"

Meng Changde bowed to Li Yuan and pulled down His Highness with a face of regret. Does Meng Changde really have nothing to do with this matter? Did he really just happen to be questioned for corruption? The investigation memorial was a great threat to Li Shimin. I stood and bowed to Li Yuan and said, "I have something to report."

"Excreme!"

Under Li Yuan's order, I said, "At that time, I saw the trespasser tampering in front of the table of His Royal Highness the King of Qin and saw him take something from his body and stuff it into the desk."

Li Yuan wink, and Li Jiancheng presented the memorial. He held it between his two fingers and asked, "Are you talking about it?"

At that time, I didn't see what the stuff was, so I had to say, "I dare not assert, only provide the emperor with a clue for reference."

Li Yuan opened the memorial, and as he frowned more and more tightly, the atmosphere in the hall became extremely tense. Suddenly, Li Yuan threw down the memorial and shot his sharp eyes at Li Shimin in the hall.
