Liu Lanxin came in and bowed to Pei Yusheng behind the desk: "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"waived!"
"Your Highness, I heard that something happened at the Northern Frontier Envoy's place. I'm afraid that Your Highness might be involved, so I came here to ask about it." Liu Lanxin asked softly.
"The princess is really well-informed." Pei Yusheng's eyes fell on Liu Lanxin's face, and he examined her for a long time before answering slowly.
"It's spreading outside now. The maid next to me heard it when she went to the street to buy silk thread just now. I was afraid something might happen, so I came here to ask." Liu Lanxin said softly.
"When did the princess start to like needlework?" Pei Yusheng asked in a deep voice.
"Although my sewing skills are not very good, I still know the basics. I think my sewing skills are pretty good compared to the Princess of England." Liu Lanxin said with a smile, as if she didn't notice Pei Yusheng's scrutiny.
Although both of them had eye problems, Qu Moying had it since childhood, so it was normal that she was not good at sewing afterwards. Liu Lanxin grew up in the border area, where people didn't pay much attention to needlework. But she later met Tong Yuzhen, and she did improve on these aspects.
Although it's not outstanding, it does have some basic features.
However, on weekdays, Liu Lanxin didn't do much needlework, which showed that she was not happy about it.
"I heard that the princess went to Qingyun Temple and stayed there for one night?" Pei Yusheng asked.
"I mentioned it to the prince when we were traveling that day. Your Highness is so busy, could it be that he forgot?" Liu Lanxin said with a frank smile.
This matter had indeed been mentioned before, but Pei Yusheng didn't take it seriously at the time. He seldom stayed overnight at Liu Lanxin's place, so he just shook his head to indicate that he knew about this trivial matter.
"Who did the princess meet at Qingyun Temple?" Pei Yusheng continued to ask, his eyes fixed on Liu Lanxin.
"I met Princess Ying and had a conversation with her. Princess Ying's health is much better than before. Since I went there, I naturally had to visit her. I will be back the next day." Liu Lanxin was well prepared. When Pei Yusheng asked this, she answered without any "concealment".
After she finished speaking, she looked at Pei Yusheng in confusion: "Prince, is there something wrong here? Did something happen to the palace that made you interrogate me like this?"
"Princess Qiya almost got into trouble. You should know about this, right?" Pei Yusheng shook his hand to indicate that nothing happened.
"I do know about this. Could it be that the prince thinks I have something to do with this? How could I mobilize so many people?"
Liu Lanxin's eyes turned red with grievance, and she wiped her eyes gently with a handkerchief, "If you don't believe me, just go ahead and investigate. If you find that it has something to do with me, I will bear the consequences."
"It has nothing to do with the princess?" Pei Yusheng asked with a strange look.
"It has nothing to do with me." Liu Lanxin nodded. "Your Highness, do you believe that I have such great ability to do such a thing?"
Pei Yusheng really didn't believe that Liu Lanxin did this. Although Liu Lanxin didn't like Princess Qia, she didn't have the ability to make such a big deal out of this.
There are so many men in black, all of them are well-trained. How could Liu Lanxin hide so many people under her command? Even if the people sent to her by General Fuguo were only a few at most.
So, she didn't do this.
Seeing Liu Lanxin's confused and somewhat aggrieved face, he thought about how he was really influenced by Pei Luoan and felt that it was related to the backyard, which was ridiculous.
"It would be best if this matter has nothing to do with you. I am afraid that someone will investigate this aspect. After all, it was Princess Chia who died at that time."
Pei Yusheng's expression softened and he pointed to a chair on the side, motioning Liu Lanxin to sit down.
"What... who would think so?" Liu Lanxin took a step forward with a pale face and bit her lip in panic, "Who wants to deal with Prince Jing's Mansion and the prince?"
"I don't know." Pei Yusheng rubbed his eyebrows, where wrinkles formed a knot.
He still couldn't figure out the cause and effect of the incident, nor did he understand why someone wanted to assassinate the envoy from the Northern Frontier, whether it was for peace talks or really for Qiya.
I have a terrible headache.
"Your Highness, although you are not aware of this matter, someone may implicate you and me. Your Highness should find out as soon as possible. If there is any evidence left at that time, it can also clear your suspicion and prevent those people from saying something unpleasant and spreading it to the ears of the emperor, which would be detrimental to your Highness."
Liu Lanxin looked as if she was concerned about Pei Yusheng, and her expression became increasingly uneasy.
Seeing her panic, Pei Yusheng became more and more uneasy. He was sure that he did not do this, but he also knew that others would suspect that he did it.
It would be bad if my father thought the same way.
"You go down first. I will have someone keep an eye on the government office." Pei Yusheng said anxiously.
When something like this happened, no one could rest assured. He was suspicious of this and that, even his own princess, let alone others.
"Yes, I'll take my leave. Your Highness, please be careful." Liu Lanxin nodded obediently, bowed to Pei Yusheng, and walked out.
She let out a long sigh of relief when she stood outside the door. Although she had prepared for the response long ago, she was still flustered when she was asked.
After this happened, King Jing would definitely ask me, so it would be better for me to come here first, at least I would have the initiative.
This incident was really beyond her expectations. She did send people, and it was her people who assassinated Princess Qiya, but there were only three or four of them. How could there be so many men in black? Moreover, they made such a big fuss that Prince Qilie of Northern Frontier almost got killed.
I heard that the assassin even rushed in front of Prince Qilie.
Liu Lanxin was sure that he was not her man? Could it be that her father had secretly arranged this? But that was not what her father had said to her in the past...
How come there is no news about the earrings that I asked the assassin to drop? Could it be that no one has found them? What should I do
That bitch Qiya is fine, and the earrings were not picked up either. So the plan of killing two birds with one stone was a complete failure
At this moment, she couldn't send anyone to find her people. King Jing was a little suspicious of her, and she couldn't act rashly in the mansion. Now she could only wait for news.
I was extremely anxious. What went wrong? Who messed up my affairs? Or who knew my plan? Would this affect me in the future? The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the follow-up of this incident might implicate me...
Liu Lanxin was restless in Prince Jing's Mansion, and it was inconvenient for her to ask Pei Yusheng for information. However, Qu Moying knew everything very well in Qingyun Temple.
Pei Yuanjun was hurriedly summoned back. He had been away for a while. After something like this happened, the emperor would definitely summon Pei Yuanjun into the palace.
The cause of this incident was Liu Lanxin. Liu Lanxin took her own earrings, obviously in order to deal with Princess Qia. She used her own name to assassinate Princess Qia. No matter what the final result was, it had nothing to do with her.
What she didn't know was that her actions were not hard to guess...
"Princess, Lord Yue has sent news." An Dong came in from outside, wiped the sweat off his face, and said happily.
"What did you say?" Yuchun asked anxiously with a smile.
Yuxiu poured a glass of warm water for An Dong, who took it and drank it in big gulps, then thanked Yuxiu and reported to Qu Moying: "Princess, Lord Yue said that the font on it... is the word 'Qin', and this case has now been taken over by the West Prison."
The character "Qin" alone does not actually need such a big fanfare, but if this character "Qin" is somewhat similar to the original "Qin", then it would be a big deal.
During the Rebellion of the Three Kings, were they from the Qin dynasty
The War of the Three Kings happened so long ago, but it has been brought up again today, and what’s more, it involves the word “Qin”.
Some people in the Great Zhou knew that the Prince of Qin had fled to the northern border, but few people knew that the second prince was the descendant of the King of Qin and the son of the Prince of Qin.
This matter involved too many people. On the surface, it was handled by Jingzhao Yin of the Ministry of Justice, but in fact it had been transferred to the Dali Temple and the Western Prison. The Dali Temple was in the open, and the Western Prison was in secret.
The incident became such a big deal that many people couldn't cover it up anymore.
"Have you checked the Duke of Qi's Mansion?" Qu Moying asked with her long eyelashes fluttering. When the pair of earrings fell into her hands, she told Pei Yuanjun about it. Pei Yuanjun started to check and found that this set of jewelry was indeed returned to the Duke of Qi's Mansion by the palace. It can be said that it was a jewelry that had been passed down from the Duke of Qi's Mansion.
Originally, the booklet was to be given to Liu Jingyu by the Lady Dowager of the Duke of Qi's Mansion, but later it was sent to Qu Moying as an apology for Liu Jingyu's crime. It was previously recorded that it was sent to the Liu Mansion, so the booklet fell into Pei Yuanjun's hands, and Qu Moying had seen it.
Later I heard that the booklet was sent back...
"Master, rest assured. These earrings are already in the records... They have never belonged to you. You are still the Crown Princess. When the book was first delivered to me, I had someone make a copy. Later, the record that the Duke of Qi's Mansion wrote to you was written on the copy. Now I have someone send the original back."
An Dong explained with a smile.
According to the records of the Duke of Qi's Mansion, this thing is now in Liu Jingyu's hands...
As this line is followed, some things will come to light. The case that has been silent for more than 30 years and the mystery of Xiao Yue's life will slowly be revealed.
There is actually a loophole in this matter, that is the intention of the Grand Lady of the Duke of Qi's Mansion, but this is actually not a concern. The Grand Lady of the Duke of Qi's Mansion has always been seeking wealth and honor. At this moment, she will also make the most "appropriate" decision...
"Princess, the head of Qingyun Temple has sent someone over. Please come over." A maid's voice came from outside the door...
Qu Moying stood up. Calculating the time, the Qingyun Monastery Master should come over to ask him to go back...
