"I'll eat, I can't eat!" Ge Yueming angrily withdrew his eyes, stared at the dishes in the bowl in front of him, and opened his mouth to eat.
After being "full of wine and food", Ge Yueming fell asleep lying on c/huang/ without any scruples about his image. Mo Qingli shook her head, covered Ge Yueming with the quilt on c/huang/, and lay beside Ge Yueming with all her clothes.
In the early morning of the next day, when Ge Yueming was soundly asleep, a hasty knock on the door disturbed his lucid dream.
"Princess." Yueyao knocked on the door and called hurriedly at the door.
Ge Yueming covered the quilt over his head, turned over and continued to sleep.
Mo Qingli got up lightly, put on her coat, opened the door, looked at Yueyao who was full of haste between her brows, and reprimanded: "It's so early in the morning, what's going on in a hurry? Talk about something slowly."
"Princess," if it was an ordinary Yueyao, she would definitely bow her head and admit her mistake when she heard Mo Qingli blame her like this. But today's Yueyao really didn't care about anything else, she said eagerly: "Princess, Miss Mingxiang is gone."
"Disappeared?" Mo Qingli frowned slightly, and scolded: "How can a good person disappear, take your time."
"Yes, princess."
Yue Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "This morning, Mr. Yu Ge took breakfast to Miss Li Mingxiang's room, but found that Miss Li Mingxiang's room was empty. Then General Li sent someone to find After waiting for a long time, Dao has not found anyone for Miss Li Mingxiang."
"Yuge and Mingxiang didn't sleep last night, together?" Mo Qingli vaguely felt that something was wrong.
"This servant doesn't know." Yue-Yao replied.
Mo Qingli closed the door lightly, and followed Yueyao to Li Mingxiang's room.
At this moment, Yu Ge was crying bitterly on the table, and Li Mingxiang's father was also silently wiping away his tears.
"Mingxiang just disappeared, why are you crying like this?" Li Jing's angry voice was heard from a distance.
"General Li." Mo Qingli entered the room and called out,
Li Jing, who was originally heroic, also seemed to have turned white for a moment, and sat on the side sullenly. Although she scolded Yu Ge just now, she herself felt very sad.
"Princess." When Li Jing saw Mo Qingli, tears welled up in her eyes, and she was about to bend down and kneel down.
Mo Qingli hurried forward to support Li Jing, "General Li, what are you doing?"
"Princess, Mingxiang has played well with you since childhood, you must find Mingxiang for the old minister!" The disappearance of her own daughter made Li Jing, who was originally galloping on the battlefield, lose her mind.
Mo Qingli sighed softly, "What did General Li say? In Bengong's heart, Mingxiang is the same as Bengong's own sister. Now that she is gone, Bengong is also very anxious. The palace has already sent Yueyao to pick out the most elite soldiers to find Mingxiang. You still have to pay attention to your health and don’t worry too much. Maybe Mingxiang just came to a strange place, greedy for new things, and ran out to play. maybe."
After hearing Mo Qingli's comforting words, Li Jing also felt that it was possible. It's just that she was still a little uneasy, her heart was beating violently.
"I hope so, I hope so." Li Jing hugged her husband who was sobbing softly, comforting her softly, but it seemed that she was comforting herself.
Mo Qingli turned her eyes and saw Yu Ge who was lying on the table beside her, trembling slightly, frowned slightly, and said, "Yu Ge, when was the last time you saw Li Mingxiang?"
Hearing Mo Qingli's voice, Yu Ge, who was lying on the table, trembled for no reason, then raised his head, put the handkerchief at the corner of his eyes, and said, "Back to the princess, the last time this servant saw his wife was at dinner last night." Time. At that time, I saw that the wife-master seemed to have a sad look on his brows, and he didn't eat a few bites of the meal. The servant wondered if it was because of an assassin's assassination some time ago, and the wife-master was also injured because of it, so when eating dinner, the servant He even told the wife-master a few jokes, but the wife-master couldn't even bring up the slightest smile."
Mo Qingli thought of the hesitant appearance of Li Mingxiang who came to find her yesterday, and a bad premonition arose spontaneously. With Li Mingxiang's appearance yesterday, she obviously had something to say to her, but she didn't care about it at that time, and didn't ask any more questions, so she sent her back to have a good rest.
Mingxiang, Mingxiang, please don't let anything happen to you!
"After dinner, the wife-master didn't let the servant stay with her, saying that he wanted to be quiet. Later, the servant went to the small courtyard in the west wing for one night. In the early morning, the servant came in with breakfast At that time, I found that the wife-master had disappeared. Woooooo... It's because the slave is not good, it's because the slave didn't take good care of the princess. If something really happened to the princess, the slave really deserves death!"
Yuge lay down on the table and cried again while talking, and Li Mingxiang's father couldn't stop crying.
Although Yuge spoke with sincerity, Mo Qingli always felt that something was wrong, something strange.
After a while, Yueyao came back. Her face was pale, and as soon as she entered the room, she knelt down on the ground with a plop, "Princess, General, please forgive me."
Hearing this, Yuge cried even harder. Li Jing was startled, and she asked Yueyao cautiously, "Yueyao, what are you talking about? Why do I mourn, and no one died? What do you do? My condolences."
"Princess, General, Miss Li Mingxiang...she has already gone." Yueyao knelt on the ground and couldn't help sobbing.
Along the way, she also had a good impression of this Miss General. But for such a good person, he suddenly left like this, which made Yueyao feel a little uncomfortable.
"You're lying, you're talking nonsense." Yuge stood up suddenly, pointed at Yueyao and said loudly, "How can the wife kill herself so well, you must be lying."
Li Jing's husband even cried out in Li Jing's arms and passed out. Li Jing hugged her husband on c/huang//, and told the maid beside her, "Call the doctor."
The servant girl quickly backed away after being ordered.
Then Li Jing turned her eyes to Yueyao and said, "Yueyao, take... take me to have a look."
In an instant, Mo Qingli felt that Li Jing seemed to have aged decades, and her walking became a little unsteady. Yu Ge hurried forward to support Li Jing, and said, "Mother, I'll go with you."
Li Jing glanced at Yu Ge, but said nothing.
Mo Qingli signaled Yueyao to lead the way, and the three of them walked together to the place where Li Mingxiang was parked.
"Yueyao, where did you find Mingxiang?" Mo Qingli felt sad, but she never believed that Li Mingxiang, who was always lively, cheerful and optimistic, would commit suicide.
"Back to the princess, the servant girl found it in the lake not far from the house." Yueyao recalled the scene when she found Li Mingxiang, and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"What does Wu Zuo say?" Mo Qingli's doubts grew bigger and bigger.
Yue Yao said: "Wu Zuo said that fortunately the corpse was not soaked in the water for a long time, so it is still very easy to infer the time of the deceased's death. It was between last night and today's time."
During the time when Mo Qingli was asking Yueyao, everyone had arrived at the place where Li Mingxiang's body was parked.
Li Jing reached out tremblingly and slowly lifted the white cloth in front of her, revealing the slightly soaked and swollen corpse of Li Mingxiang. She couldn't bear it anymore, and threw herself on Li Mingxiang's body.
"My son, why do you have the heart to let me, a white-haired man, give you a black-haired man! My son, why are you so cruel, and you just left without saying a word. How do you let your mother and your father live? , how to live!"
Seeing Li Jing crying miserably, Yue Yao couldn't help but silently wiped a few tears from behind.
Mo Qingli approached and carefully observed the dead Li Mingxiang, the pale and slightly swollen face had lost the smile of the past, and there was only silence, a lifeless silence.
"Mingxiang, how could you just abandon me like this. Woooooo... I want to go with you." Yuge said as he was about to bump into the pillar next to him, but was pulled by Li Jing.
"Yu Ge, what are you doing? I already lost a daughter, so you still think I don't have a son?" Li Jing's tearful face was full of heartache.
Yu Ge's eyes widened in disbelief, "Mother, what do you mean..."
"You will be my Li Jing's son from now on." Li Jing looked at Li Mingxiang who was lying cold on the wooden plank, "I will treat you as well as I treat Mingxiang."
"Mother." Yuge hugged Li Mingxiang, his voice choked with sobs.
At this time, Mo Qingli, who had been carefully examining Li Mingxiang's body, seemed to have discovered something.
She pushed Li Mingxiang's clenched fist away, and a pearl fell out of her hand. Mo Qingli took the handkerchief from Yue Yao's hand, put the pearl in the handkerchief, then tightly held the handkerchief covering the pearl, and closed her eyes. Secretly using spiritual power, through the pearl in the handkerchief, she returned to the moment when Li Mingxiang died.
"Are you really going to kill me?"
Mo Qingli saw Li Mingxiang standing by the river, and said disappointedly to one of the two people standing opposite.
"Hmph... knowing so many of our secrets, I naturally want to kill you." Another woman pulled the man behind her and said to Li Mingxiang rudely.
Li Mingxiang's face was full of disappointment, but she refused to die like this. When she was about to flee, the woman stepped forward, holding a piece of cloth in her hand, covering Li Mingxiang's mouth.
Then Mo Qingli saw Li Mingxiang fainted in the woman's arms. On the eve of her fainting, Li Mingxiang used his last strength to tear off a pearl hanging from the woman's waist. , held tightly in his hand.
Then Li Mingxiang, who lost her mind, was pushed into the river by the woman.
Mo Qingli opened her eyes suddenly, and wiped the sweat from her forehead. Although she couldn't see the appearance of those people, she was sure that Li Mingxiang did not commit suicide, but homicide.
"Princess, did you find anything?" Yue-Yao couldn't help but ask. In fact, she did not want to believe that Li Mingxiang committed suicide.
