Murong Xue's eyes flickered unnaturally: "I'm too busy, I don't have time..."
"Traveling in mountains and rivers and meeting lovers is busy?" Murong Ye squinted at Murong Xue, his eyes full of contempt.
Murong Xue's face darkened: "Who has traveled to the mountains and rivers to meet a lover?"
"You, you and Ouyang Shaochen are in love and are about to get married. You have been away from the capital for so long. What are you doing instead of traveling?" Murong Ye retorted unceremoniously.
Murong Xue's eyes narrowed slightly: "Who told you that we are getting married?"
"King Xiaoyao, Princess Xiaoyao." Murong Ye paused every word.
Murong Xue raised her eyebrows slightly: "Have you seen them?"
"En!" Murong Ye nodded: "Ten days ago, they came to the Hou Mansion and discussed with me about your marriage with Ouyang Shaochen. Come and hire…”
Murong Xue's eyelids twitched violently: Ji Ji will be hired? Then their wedding day is not far away...
"Sister, do you really want to marry?" Murong Ye looked at Murong Xue and asked uncertainly.
Murong Xue hummed vaguely: She can't go back to the 21st century, she can only live here, Ouyang Shaochen cares about her very much, and loves her very much, it's okay for her to marry him...
"After you get married, I'm really the only one left in this Zhen Guohou's mansion." Murong Ye sighed heavily, his slightly hoarse voice was full of deep melancholy.
"You can marry a wife and have children. When you and your sister-in-law have nephews and nieces, the Zhenguohou Mansion will be full of excitement..." Murong Xue smiled.
Murong Ye didn't take it seriously: "I'm only fifteen years old, what kind of wife will I marry? Even if I want to marry a wife, I have to be eighteen years old..."
Uh... Murong Xue wanted to tell him that men in Qingyan Kingdom can marry wives at the age of sixteen. However, from the perspective of modern people, it is best for Murong Ye to marry at the age of eighteen, and marry at the age of sixteen. , some are too small...
"Sister, where did you and Prince Ouyang go? Was it fun?" Murong Ye asked with a smile, looking at Murong Xue with sparkling eyes.
One second he was talking about her marriage with Ouyang Shaochen, and the next second he was on a trip to the mountains and rivers. His thoughts jumped really fast enough.
Murong Xue glared at him, and said angrily: "We didn't go for a play, we went to investigate the cause of father's death..."
Murong Ye is Murong Yue's biological son and has the right to know the truth about Murong Yue's death. Before he was in the military camp, she rarely saw him and could not tell him. Now that she sees him, she will tell the truth.
"Father's cause of death?" Murong Ye frowned slightly: "Didn't father die in battle?"
"Of course not!" Murong Xue shook her head: "Father was killed by someone's design, and his death in battle was just a cover."
"Really?" Murong Ye's eyes were full of shock and disbelief: For ten years, he had always thought that loving him and pampering his father meant dying in battle...
Murong Xue nodded heavily: "In the past, I always thought that my father was killed in battle. Until a few months ago, I accidentally learned that there was something strange about his death, so I ordered someone to investigate secretly, and found that my father's death in battle was full of doubts..."
"Who is the real culprit?" Murong Ye paused every word, his deep voice showing the taste of gnashing of teeth.
Murong Xue shook her head: "I haven't found it yet. The real culprit behind the scenes is very cunning. He never shows up to challenge me. He only sends minions to trouble me. As long as they are caught, the minions will commit suicide as quickly as possible. People can't stop it even if they want to, and until now, I haven't been able to get any useful news from them... "
Murong Ye's dark eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes is a cunning old fox..."
"Yes!" Murong Xue nodded: The person who can plot Murong Yue to death is definitely a thousand-year-old fox. It is not easy to find him...
"Miss!" Ge Hui walked over quickly, with a little bit of imperceptible joy in his sharp eyes.
"Uncle Hui, how is the investigation going?" After Murong Xue had a conversation with the Emperor of Xiliang, he sent a letter to Ge Hui and Ying Wei, asking them to secretly investigate every relative and friend around Murong Yue...
"Miss Hui, Lord Hou has many friends, and the closest ones are Old Prince Jing, Duke Cheng, and Prime Minister Xie!" Ge Hui said softly.
Murong Xue nodded: "Then among these three people, which one has the best relationship with my father?"
The more Murong was able to ask the Xiliang Emperor that question in such a sad tone, it can be seen that that friend has a very good relationship with him and holds a very heavy weight in his heart...
"This... each has its own merits. Cheng Guogong and Prime Minister Xie grew up with Lord Hou, and they were worshiped under the name of Shen Daru at the same time. Later, Lord Hou went to the military camp and had a relationship with Lord Jing, who is also a general in the army. Get closer..." Ge Hui truthfully reported.
Murong Xue's eyes were dark: "Then these three people, did they ever have conflicts with my father?" It is very common to plot to kill people because of conflicts.
Ge Hui shook his head: "No!"
"Not once?" Murong Xue's eyes were cold.
Ge Hui coughed a few times: "When I was young, there were small quarrels, and the quarrels were mostly about knowledge and martial arts. Old Prince Jing, Prime Minister Xie, and Duke Cheng are all sons of aristocratic families. They have broad vision, even if they are not big enough. You are frank, and you will never kill people because of these trivial matters... "
Murong Xue nodded lightly: "Old Prince Jing, Prime Minister Xie, and Duke Cheng are all descendants of aristocratic families. They have a good relationship with the Zhen Guohou's Mansion. It is true that they will not murder people because of minor conflicts when they are young. However, this cannot completely wash away their feelings." Suspicion, after all, Murong Yue has never had a big conflict with anyone, and he was killed by someone. It is very likely that a big conflict happened, but it happened very secretly, and others don't know...
"Where were these three people when my father was killed?"
"Prince Jing was fighting with the generals of Southern Xinjiang on the battlefield. Prime Minister Xie and Duke Cheng are both in the capital." Ge Hui said lightly.
A flash of meaning flashed in Murong Xue's eyes: "In this way, the deaths of Old Prince Jing, Prime Minister Xie, Duke Cheng and my father have nothing to do with each other..."
Ge Hui's eyes sank: "It seems so on the surface."
Murong Xue smiled, yes, it seems so on the surface, but they don't know the truth.
Many of the things that the shadow guards found are relatively hidden, but there should be something deeper. They didn't find out. The unfathomable secret should be in the "Return Alley" that matches the silver key. !
What exactly is 'Return to Lane'? Where is he (it)
The cool breeze blows, and if there is a seemingly nonexistent black bamboo fragrance lingering on the tip of the nose, Ouyang Shaochen's poetic and handsome face comes into view, Murong Xue is startled, and blinks hard, only to see Ouyang Shaochen's face is still close So close, lingering...
