Qin Ruo agreed with Shen Zhiyan's conjecture, and said, "But why did Mr. Rong kill Miss Xia? Could it be that Mrs. Xia knew the secret of Mr. Rong's shame?"
Murong Ci's bright eyes narrowed slightly, and he speculated: "Mr. Rong went to Jinzhou to play, and ran into Miss Xia who was as beautiful as a flower, and felt that she was as fresh and graceful as a winter jasmine in the mountains, and she had a kind of touching feeling. Mr. Rong knows Xia The girl fell in love with her, and she didn't refuse the beautiful woman's embrace. Instead, she acted on every occasion and made a private decision with her for life. The two of them dated like glue for more than ten days, and Mr. Rong passed the freshness, so he lied about a letter from the imperial capital saying My father was seriously ill and had to rush back to the imperial capital. He bid farewell to Miss Xia and returned to Beijing without hesitation, poor Miss Xia was still waiting eagerly for him to marry him."
Shen Zhiyan and Qin Ruo listened intently, admiring His Highness's deduction ability.
"Miss Xia waited and waited, but she couldn't wait for Mr. Rong to marry her. After waiting for more than half a year, she really didn't want to wait any longer. She decided to go to Beijing to find her sweetheart and to pursue her own happiness. What she didn't expect was that the capital was hers. The place of burial." Murong Ci talked eloquently and calmly, "On the night when the case happened, Mr. Rong invited Miss Xia to a small temple in the west of the city, and finally met his sweetheart. It's not the young man she is familiar with."
"Maybe Mr. Rong said unfeelingly that he would not marry her, maybe he also said that he was engaged to the girl arranged by his parents, maybe he said some things that hurt Miss Xia, but Miss Xia is determined to marry her." Give it to him, even if he is low-key, he will admit it. The two of them don't know what happened, maybe Mr. Rong felt that she hindered his future or for other reasons, he decided to kill Miss Xia and make her disappear forever, so that he can once and for all .”
"Young Master Rong is really cruel." Shen Zhiyan clenched his fists, furious.
"All of this is just Ben Gong's speculation, without any real evidence." Murong Ci said sadly.
It was quiet in the carriage, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Qin Ruo sighed and said: "The slave thinks that the murderer who killed Miss Xia's master and servant was thoughtful, and he was a clever man who kept his secrets hidden."
Shen Zhiyan nodded and said: "From the murderer's arrangement that Ma Dong rapes first and then kills Miss Xia, it can be seen that the murderer is extremely intelligent."
After running to these places, one day just passed by.
At this time, the setting sun was like blood, and the roof tiles and walls seemed to be splashed with thick blood. The evening wind blew up, the heat receded a bit, and I finally felt a little better.
He suddenly said: "Remember, Your Highness, Sister She is hosting a banquet in the mansion tonight, and you must come later."
"Oh, I forgot if you didn't tell me."
In the past few days, Murong Ci was busy investigating the case, all he could think about were the three murder cases, and completely forgot about Shen Zhili's invitation to visit the Taifu's residence.
Qin Ruo said with a smile: "Master Shen, it's getting late now, let's go to Taifu's residence together."
Shen Zhiyan was right when he thought about it, when he returned to Dali Temple, the people in the yamen had almost left, so it was better to go back directly to the mansion.
Shen Zhili hosted a banquet in the mansion, and the guests were naturally His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Duanrou, as well as Yu Wang, who she wanted to see most.
When Murong Ci and Shen Zhiyan arrived, Princess Duanrou had already arrived for a while.
Seeing His Highness the Crown Prince, Murong Shi was overjoyed, and was about to run over when she suddenly thought of what Shen Zhili had repeatedly told her, so she stopped and bowed softly, "Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Shen Zhili also saluted, "Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince."
It was the first time for Murong Ci to see her so quiet and gentle, he couldn't help being surprised, and said, "There is no need to be too polite."
Shen Zhi got up politely, and looked behind them involuntarily, there was no one there, and Yu Wang didn't come with them.
Shen Zhiyan somewhat knew what his sister was thinking, and said, "I don't know if Yu Wang will come or not, princess, did Yu Wang tell you?"
"Third Uncle never mentioned it to me." Murong Shi said softly, deliberately pretending to be a well-educated, gentle and pleasant lady.
"Probably not coming." Murong Ci felt that Murong Yu would definitely not come to Tai Tuo's residence for a banquet, after all he always disdained this kind of banquet, let alone a girl's invitation.
Shen Zhili's heart suddenly sank, sinking bit by bit.
Today, she has been busy since the morning, striving to be the best, and she has spent endless thoughts on every delicious dish. Whenever she was thinking about how to do better, Yu Wang's voice and smile would appear in her mind, thinking about what he would say and how he would react, and she would be very satisfied at this time.
However, His Royal Highness's words were like a bucket of cold ice water pouring down from the top of her head, freezing the blood boiling all over her body, and the cold air spread crazily across her limbs and bones.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Sensing that something was wrong with her, Shen Zhiyan asked with concern.
"It's nothing." Her red lips trembled slightly, and she felt the biting cold all over her body in this midsummer.
"Your Highness, let's go in." He waved his hand to invite His Highness.
Murong Ci walked to the dining hall, Murong Shi followed behind, followed by Shen Zhiyan.
After standing blankly for a while, Shen Zhili regained his composure, and went in with stiff hands and feet.
Because it was a gathering of younger generations, Shen Zhiyan's parents did not show up, allowing the young people to eat, drink and play to their heart's content.
When the banquet started, Shen Zhiyan was about to greet the guests, and his servants came to report: "My lord, miss, Yu Wang has arrived."
Murong Ci's heart trembled, and his whole body froze, why did that guy come here
She had expected that Murong Yu would not come, so she came to Taifu's residence. This time it was wrong
Shen Zhili's heart was jumping for joy, joy filled her heart, and she could hardly breathe with excitement. She tried her best to restrain her emotions, stood up to greet her, and saluted dignifiedly, "My daughter pays homage to the prince."
Shen Zhiyan and Murong Shi also got up to salute, Murong Ci sat peacefully, feeling extremely depressed in his heart.
Is Murong Yu's brain trapped by the door
Shen Zhili's heart was pounding, he quietly raised his eyes, and the man who was thinking about him walked in like a dragon and a tiger, dressed in a bright light and shadow, which made people dazzled and fascinated.
He wore a black robe embroidered with gold thread, so rich in color, but he interpreted it elegantly, calmly, and proudly. shine.
She felt that all the words in the world could not perfectly describe his majestic demeanor, and all words could not describe his overwhelming demeanor. In her eyes, he was impeccably perfect.
Murong Yu sat next to Murong Ci, as if it was a matter of course, "Let's all sit down."
Shen Zhili was astonished and opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end.
She wanted him to take the main seat, and she herself sat at the lower end of the main seat, closest to him.
"My lord, please sit up." Shen Zhiyan understood her thoughts, and proposed on her behalf, with a respectful attitude.
"No, it's fine for me to sit here." Murong Yu said indifferently, his eyes casually glanced at Murong Ci on the right.
Shen Zhili scooped up a bowl of soup, his manner was elegant and pleasing to the eye. After that, she offered it with both hands, "My lord, this is the rabbit soup made by the cook in the house. It has a unique flavor. You can try it."
He took the porcelain bowl and placed it in front of Murong Ci, Shen Lang said: "Your Highness has worked hard in investigating cases recently, and the cleanliness has been reduced. Eat more to nourish your body."
The corners of her lips twitched, and she suddenly felt her cheeks warm up, "I don't like rabbit soup, the prince should eat it by himself."
It stands to reason that Shen Zhili is so considerate and thoughtful in treating guests, so she should be the one who came first to offer the rabbit soup. Why is it Murong Yu
Could it be that Shen Zhili has unusual thoughts about Murong Yu
Murong Ci looked at Shen Zhili, as expected, her expression was quite weird, it was the kind of embarrassment, embarrassment, disappointment, and sadness that her hard work was trampled on.
It's getting more and more interesting.
Shen Zhili sat down, quietly acting like a gentle and dignified lady.
Murong Yu's right hand moved down, and his fingertips lightly rested on Murong Ci's lap. He said calmly, "Your Highness should eat more."
Suddenly, Murong Ci's body trembled slightly, as if struck by a thunderbolt, smoke and creaking noises came from the top of his head.
Damn Murong Yu
"It smells pretty good, I have a try."
She gritted her teeth and almost broke her own teeth.
Shen Zhiyan knew His Highness to some extent, and felt that her voice was a little strange, as if she was very angry, um, she must be angry because she was forced to eat rabbit soup by King Yu.
Murong Yu raised his hand and began to eat, and from time to time, he picked up vegetables for His Highness the Crown Prince beside him.
Murong Ci's heart burst into tears, and he gritted his teeth secretly Murong Yu, are you feeding the pigs
I can't wait to throw the vegetables he picked up on his face
Shen Zhili didn't eat much, just watched them play tricks, frowning slightly, thoughtful.
It was the same in Yuwang Mansion last time, why did Yuwang like to serve food to His Royal Highness, they seem to be very familiar with it
Shen Zhiyan also felt more and more that something was wrong, whether the Yuwang and the prince were incompatible, or were they secretly keeping Chen Cang in the dark? Are they enemies or friends now
"The cooks in the mansion are not as good as those in the palace and the palace, but their cooking skills are not bad. The prince should eat more."
Shen Zhili's soft voice was like the breeze blowing, and the roses bloomed slowly.
Murong Yu nodded, "You're welcome." Then he asked Shen Zhiyan, "Is Dali Temple busy recently?"
Shen Zhiyan said calmly: "Master Gu is busy with official duties, it's okay to step down from office, there are three murder cases, but there is not much progress for the time being."
Murong Ci suddenly had a headache, why should he be so sincere. In front of Murong Yu, one must combine reality with fiction, and never reveal the truth.
Murong Shi was very depressed. Originally, she was sitting with His Highness the Crown Prince, so she could get the moon first if she was close to the water, but the third uncle stood between them and forcibly separated them, making her unable to do anything. Therefore, she pouted angrily, no matter how delicious the meal was, she couldn't taste it anymore.
She was most afraid of the third uncle, and now she dared not speak out, so she could only sulk herself.
Shen Zhili saw her thoughts, secretly patted her hand, and winked at her, telling her not to be impatient.
In fact, Shen Zhili was similar, as if there was a hand touching him, feeling uncomfortable, anxious, anxious, and lost, but he couldn't explain why.
Everyone has their own ideas for this dinner.
