After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

The next day, servants from the prince's mansion came to wake him up.

Early that morning, the servant went to the courtyard as usual, but as soon as he arrived at the backyard, he saw Li Siqi sleeping soundly with Xu Yingying under him.

Xu Yingying was still wearing men's clothes, and the servants in the palace didn't know that Xu Yingying was a girl. In their eyes, Li Siqi had come out!!!

The servant couldn't control his voice and screamed, waking up both Li Siqi and Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying had an impatient look on her face. When she opened her eyes, she met Li Siqi's big face. At this time, Li Siqi also woke up. The two of them looked at each other. For a moment, this world fell into a strange silence.

"Ahem, Your Highness, why don't you get up first?" Xu Yingying poked Li Siqi on her body, her face looking pale.

Li Siqi suddenly reacted and subconsciously got up from the ground. Xu Yingying had been pressed down by Li Siqi all night, and her blood circulation was a little blocked. She looked strange when she stood up.

But in the eyes of the servants, the meaning of this scene changed completely.

There was something wrong with the way he looked at Li Siqi and Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying yawned casually, then limped towards her yard, intending to go back and catch up on some sleep.

Li Siqi also felt uncomfortable, so he didn't stop Xu Yingying and let her leave. He didn't have the heart to worry about why Xu Yingying came here.

After tidying himself up, Li Siqi returned to the study to continue dealing with things.

But there was an uproar in the palace. No one knew who started it, but the story between Li Siqi and Xu Yingying began to spread throughout the palace.

What's more, they started to talk about the fact that both of them had a crush on each other, and Xu Yingying took over here, fearing that she had some intentions towards Li Siqi.

Some people also think that Li Siqi had bad intentions towards Xu Yingying, otherwise why would he hold Xu Yingying under him all night.

Anyway, there were many different opinions. When Li Siqi walked around the palace, he felt that the servants around him looked at him strangely, and each of them seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Li Siqi didn't have the energy to pursue these things now. After arriving at the study, he asked someone to call Cui Jiangyuan over.

When Cui Jiangyuan arrived at the prince's mansion, he saw scary people gathered in groups of three or four, and no one knew what they were talking about.

Li Siqi's men rarely acted like this. Cui Jiangyuan was a lively person to begin with, and seeing this, he also moved over, thinking that there was some new gossip in the prince's mansion.

Relying on his own "reputation", Cui Jiangyuan quickly figured out the whole story.

When he arrived at the study, the look in his eyes when he looked at Li Siqi was indescribably strange. Originally, he was quite close to Li Siqi.

But thinking of the information he had just found out, Cui Jiangyuan silently moved away from Li Siqi.

Li Siqi was already depressed, and seeing Cui Jiangyuan like this, he felt even more dissatisfied.

"Cui Jiangyuan, what are you doing?" Li Siqi's voice rang in Cui Jiangyuan's ears.

Cui Jiangyuan paused while moving, and met Li Siqi's unfriendly gaze. He smiled awkwardly, and then said, "It's nothing, it's just that I feel the air near the window is fresher."

"Tell me, what are you hiding from me?" Li Siqi was too lazy to chat with Cui Jiangyuan.

Seeing that Li Siqi was not joking, Cui Jiangyuan had no choice but to tell him everything he had just heard.

When he heard that he was suspected of coming out, Li Siqi's forehead twitched again and again. Resisting the urge to beat up the person in front of him, Li Siqi held his forehead and for a moment he didn't know how to explain himself.

Cui Jiangyuan's words were heard clearly by Xiao Zhi who was hiding outside the study. When he heard Cui Jiangyuan say that Li Siqi liked Xu Yingying, Xiao Zhi's eyes flickered, and then he left the study and went back to find Yang Huiwen, and thus missed what Li Siqi said later.

"Don't think about these nonsense. The relationship between me and County Magistrate Xu is not what you think. I had a cold poison attack last night, and I don't know why she appeared here. In short, don't spread this matter anymore. I am innocent."

However, Xiao Zhi relayed Cui Jiangyuan's words to Yang Huiwen verbatim.

Yang Huiwen has always liked Li Siqi. Although she knows that she is not worthy of Li Siqi, a prince, her dreams are not against the law. After knowing that Li Siqi "likes" Xu Yingying, Yang Huiwen almost broke her carefully maintained nails.

"Why? I can't even compare to a man. What's wrong with me, Yang Huiwen?" Jealousy can change a person beyond recognition. Yang Huiwen has completely regarded Xu Yingying as her love rival.

But Xu Yingying, her love rival, had no idea about this.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. We have almost finished investigating Yan Qingyin during this period. I called you here today to discuss matters concerning Yan Qingyin." Li Siqi said seriously.

During this period, he went out early and came back late, partly because of the cold poison in his body, and partly because of Yan Qingyin's matter.

"Yan Qingyin's target seems to be County Magistrate Xu, but she is not enough, we also need another ghost." Cui Jiangyuan also looked serious.

"Who?"

"Xiao Zhi, a subordinate of Yang Huiwen."

"Why him?"

"There should be a ghost following Yan Qingyin, but we have never seen it. She targeted County Magistrate Xu probably because of this ghost. According to my investigation, this ghost should have a close relationship with Xiao Zhi, so..."

After some discussion, Li Siqi finally made up his mind, but he still needed to inform Xu Yingying about this matter. After all, whether it was inviting Xiaozhi or carrying out the plan, Xu Yingying was an indispensable part.

Li Siqi wanted Cui Jiangyuan to talk to Xu Yingying because he didn't know how to face Xu Yingying because of what happened in the morning.

Cui Jiangyuan shook his head like a rattle, "I won't go. After all, she is the object of your gossip. It's not appropriate for me to get involved."

Li Siqi was so angry at Cui Jiangyuan's words that he wanted to hit him, but he held back.

After struggling for a while, Li Siqi finally stepped into Xu Yingying's yard.

Xu Yingying had just woken up at this time. When she saw Li Siqi, her mind was still a little dazed. It took her a while to slowly come back to her senses.

"Why did your highness come to see me?" Xu Yingying asked slowly.

Li Siqi was silent for a moment, and repeated the plan he had discussed with Cui Jiangyuan to Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying nodded happily. Why should she refuse to deal with Yan Qingyin? The weeds were still in Yan Qingyin's hands, and if this matter was not resolved, Yan Qingyin would keep keeping an eye on her.

After washing up, Xu Yingying followed Li Siqi to the brothel.
