Chapter 76 Hidden Murder
Su Qingxue's arms were slightly stretched and gently rubbed her swollen temples.
"Lu Fan, is there any movement on Mo Yuer's side?"
"When I returned to the princess, everything was safe and there was no movement. However, according to the report, Mo Yuer didn't sleep until the third watch last night, as if she had been painting in the study.
"Painting?!"
Hearing this, Su Qingxue couldn't help but wake up her twelve points of vigilance.
"Isn't it to send a message to the old fox Murong Hen by painting?
Lu Fan, you can find a few people to go in and secretly check the picture scroll, and pay attention to the interlayer of the drawing paper or the content of the painting. It's better to show me a copy. I'm worried that he will hide some mystery in the painting.
"Yes~"
While the two were whispering about Mo Yuer, Luo Xichen had already come out of the inner hall. Seeing Luo Xichen walk in, the two consciously silenced and said no more.
Su Qingxue just looked up at Luo Xichen and said indifferently:
"Your sister has no worries about life for the time being. You should be relieved. As long as she waits until tomorrow, she will recover. However, for the next day and night, I must wait day and night to prevent changes. Especially in the next three hours, the needle application after Shuang'er wakes up for a while is the most critical moment, so don't come in and disturb it without my permission within three hours from now.
"As long as you cure my sister, I will cooperate with you in everything else."
"Okay, during this period, you played my role well. You can't help but go out and make people suspicious. You can only be wronged by closing your door and waiting in the outer hall until tomorrow."
Su Qingxue nodded slightly, got up and walked to the inner hall.
"Princess, your breakfast."
"Forget it, I don't need it. Let's take it down!" Change some hot water, wormwood and red flowers for me later.
"Yes."
Lu Fan couldn't beat Su Qingxue, so he could only bow and agree. However, looking at Su Qingxue's slightly white face, there was still a trace of worry in her eyes.
At this time, in the national teacher's mansion, it is another scene.
Murong Hen, the national teacher, was furious. He raised his hand and threw the whole bowl of tea directly to the ground, and the fragments of tea and porcelain bowl fell to the ground. The two slaves kneeling in the hall had already trembled all over and knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to plead guilty.
"The national teacher spares my life, and I deserve to die."
"The national teacher spares my life, and I deserve to die."
It turned out that Muronghen inadvertently asked about the situation of Shuang'er this morning, but as soon as he mentioned it, the little bodyguard beside him kept trembling, stattering, pale and frightened. Muronghen suddenly became suspicious and asked people to take their children to court. Although the other maidservant's face was ulcerated, which made people unable to distinguish her appearance, her inadvertently ** skin behind her neck betrayed her identity.
It turns out that all the cronies sent by Muronghen will be printed with the Mu-style mark specially imprinted by Muronghen with red iron, which is the word "slave". However, although the double's face is ulcerated, the skin behind his neck is intact. It's really God's will. Without the brand of the word "slave", Muronghen naturally recognized his identity as a fake.
Murong's eyes glowed fiercely, and his legs were kicked on the backs of the two slaves. The two slaves lay on their backs, then turned over and got up, kowtowing their heads and begging for mercy.
"I deserve to die. Please forgive me. I dare not do it anymore!"
"Daw?! You really deserve to die! How dare you steal a dragon and turn a phoenix under my nose. Say it! Where is Shuang'er now?!"
"The national teacher spares his life!"
"I just need you to answer, where are they? Otherwise, you will never have to talk!"
"Please forgive your life, Shuang'er, Shuang'er's body is in the small pool in the backyard. It's a bad slave. When she healed her twins, she was already dead. I was afraid that the national teacher would blame me, so I came up with this strategy.
"Limit the time for you two to burn incense, and now go to the small pool to fish up people. Life wants to see people, and death wants to see corpses!"
"Yes, the slave will go, and the slave will go now."
The two little slaves kowtowed tremblingly, withdrew from the lobby and went straight to the small pool in the backyard.
However, the two children in the small pool had long been rescued by Su Qingxue, and the two little slaves finally fell to the ground in mud and knelt down in front of Murong Hen with empty hands.
"A bunch of waste! Presumably this time it has been caught by someone else's trick of stealing dragons and phoenixes! Who dares to be so rampant in our country's Shifu? Is it the boy Luo Xichen, or..."
Murong's eyes were slightly narrow, revealing a fierce light in his eyes.
"It seems that our stupid prince has really married a good concubine this time. Come on, prepare a sedan chair. Now let's go to the prince's mansion. I want to pay a good visit to our 18th crown princess, Su Qingxue.
"Yes, national teacher. So what should they do?
Murong's eyes were slightly slanted, and he glanced at the two people who kept kowtowing on the ground with great disgust, and said lightly:
"My native teacher hates cheating the most! Anyone who betrays, digs out his heart and lungs, and then pulls out to feed the dog.! However, don't stain my place. Remember, be sure to clean it up when you finish it.
"Yes."
"No, no!"
"The national teacher spares his life, don't..."
In the wailing of the two little slaves, Murong Hen slowly left the lobby. After that, I heard two sad screams. There was a line of silver light, and when I saw blood sealing my throat, it was the muffled sound of two human bodies falling to the ground.
Murong's clothes were fling and left with a blank face.
And it was not until Muronghen's back disappeared in the lobby that the woman in white with a tea bowl that had been hidden aside slowly came out of the side. Seeing such a scene, the woman's slightly white lips gently whispered three words "Su Qingxue", and there was a strange look in her eyes.
In a short time, Murong Hen's sedan chair had arrived at the prince's mansion. Murong Hen's unexpected visit immediately gave Lu Fan a headache. Lu Fan first sent someone to the mourning hall to invite the prince out, and then he immediately went into the crown princess's bedroom to prepare to report the situation.
However, Su Qingxue has just entered the needle, and she has told Lu Fan not to disturb the most critical three hours. When Lu Fan was about to lift the curtain to enter the inner hall, Luo Xichen put Lu Fan on his shoulder.
"Don't disturb her with the needle, I'll go with you. I will deal with Muronghen. Don't worry."
"You?!"
"Yes, I! Now she is at the most critical moment and can't go in and disturb her. Let me do it, believe me."
Lu Fan saw the determination in Luo Xichen's eyes. Time was urgent, so he could only do so.
"Okay, come to the lobby with me! If anything happens later, I will try my best to help you resolve it. Don't talk too much."
"Ye, let's go."
Luo Xichen straightened his clothes and learned Su Qingxue's walking posture. He walked gracefully. Lianbu gently followed Lu Fan and went out, but he looked at the inner hall before going out, and his eyes were full of expectations.
Please be sure to cure my sister for me, please, Su Qingxue.
After a while, everyone gathered in the lobby, but everyone's faces looked very different.
Mu Qingfeng, who had been waiting in the lobby, had a look of reluctance and helplessness on his face. He supported his elbow and leaned obliquely on the chair. His slender fingers fiddled the teacup in his hand and let him keep spinning around his fingertips. But the corner of those black eyes still secretly floated to the edge of the door from time to time, as if waiting for something. Mo Yuer beside her looks light, with a smile on the corners of her mouth and half a touch of tenderness in her eyes.
Only Muronghen looked solemn, his eyes were slightly narrow, and there was a trace of provocation in his eyes, and his eyes glanced at Mu Qingfeng and Mo Yuer, and finally stopped steadily to Yi, who was now stepping in.
"Muronghen has met the crown princess, and I would like to invite the crown princess Jin An."
"Mo Yuer respectfully invites the crown princess Jin'an~"
"The national teacher and Mexican housekeeper are polite, please get up~"
"Prince Xie~"
"Prince Xie~"
Luo Xichen slowly walked to Mu Qingfeng and bowed.
"I have seen the prince, and I respectfully invite the prince Jin An. If my concubine comes late, I hope the prince will forgive me.
Mu Qingfeng just glanced up and down on Su Qingxue's body when he heard the words. There was a touch of surprise in his eyes, and he was a little suspicious.
Concubine?! What strange words.
It seems that Su Qingxue has never been in front of herself before, and at most she just calls herself "Qingxue". In such a distant tone this time, is she still angry with herself about what happened before?
Mu Qingfeng coughed gently and then waved his hand, also with an impatient expression. Luo Xichen knew in advance that the two were in a state of cold war, so he got up, smiled indifferently at Muronghen, and said with his red lips:
"I don't know what's the important thing for the national teacher to come this time?"
Murong Hen just arched his hand slightly and deliberately opened his words in front of the princess:
"Oh, that's it. Weichen heard that the prince and the crown princess in the prince's mansion have been sick recently and bedridden. Weichen was just worried that it was Shuanger's bitch who brought some serious illness that should not be transmitted to the house. For a moment, he was worried, so he came to have a look.
Luo Xichen just lowered his eyes and said faintly:
"Thank you for your concern. It's almost done."
"As long as the prince and the princess are fine. However, Shuang'er's cheap maidservant has now fallen ill and died. So..."
Muronghen spit out his own words word by word, and his evil eyes have been staring at Luo Xichen and carefully observing every expression of Luo Xichen.
While listening to Murong Hen's slander, Luo Xichen's fists hidden in his sleeve were clenched, and a trace of anger flashed in his drooping eyes. However, now he plays the role of Su Qingxue and must not join his feelings. Feeling Murong's eyes staying on his body, Luo Xichen suppressed his anger and deliberately pretended to be surprised.
"Shuanger, is she dead?! What's the matter?"
