The grass in the factory should be plucked

Chapter 378 Suspicion

The Princess of Zhongshan County was crying like a pear blossom in the rain. She looked so weak and pitiful that she was indeed much more beautiful than Princess Ruili.

The Prince of Zhongshan picked her up and said, "I promise that I will never see that foreign woman again!"

"I don't believe it! Let me go!"

The princess sobbed and half-heartedly hit him, "Speak clearly first, umm..."

Prince Zhongshan carried her directly into the inner room.

Jiang Li was stunned. These two people were arguing, and then they made up after fighting at the head of the bed?

Why did he act like he was possessed when he saw Princess Ruili? Why did he suddenly ask for a divorce at the palace banquet?

The princess has forgiven him before he even explains everything?

What should the three spectators on the roof do?

Jiang Li wanted to rush down and find out what was going on.

Xie Changan put the tile back in place and said angrily, "Aren't you afraid of getting stye?"

Jiang Li pouted: "Why don't you get stye after watching it, but I get stye after watching it?"

She had wanted to ask for a long time, is there a difference between men and women getting stye?

Xie Changan was speechless for a moment.

Yinjiu tried hard to hold back his laughter, and his face turned red.

Xie Changan had no choice but to say, "Let's release the rat quickly and go to the next one."

Yinjiu gently opened the cage.

The fat mouse directed the other mice: "Go, spread out and hide, and focus on keeping an eye on the two people in this room."

"Yes, boss!"

The fat rat said proudly: "Now you can call me General!"

"Yes, General!"

"Well, go ahead. Be careful and don't let the cat take you away."

Jiang Li praised: "Shu Shu, not bad, you have the demeanor of a great general!"

Fat Rat said proudly: "I will do the job, don't worry!"

The three of them took a cage of mice to Prince Gaoping's mansion.

Prince Gaoping was not at home. It was said that he was taken back to his own palace by Prince Yan and knelt in the ancestral hall.

A few more mice were released into Prince Gaoping's Mansion, and finally into Prince Runan's Mansion.

The Prince of Runan was having fun with a group of concubines, living a life of debauchery, and didn't care about his fiancée Princess Ruili at all.

After walking around, Jiang Li said to Fatty Mouse, "Shu Shu, you go to the posthouse in person and be responsible for monitoring Princess Ruili."

"Okay, no problem!"

Jiang Li said seriously: "That princess is a little weird and might be dangerous. Your safety is the first priority. If things get bad, run away quickly."

The fat rat nodded his head: "Yeah, I get it!"

In order not to alert the enemy, they did not stay in the inn. They watched Fat Rat and a few of his brothers slip into the house, and the three of them returned to the Duke's Mansion.

"Brother Yinjiu, the palace gates are locked and you can't go back. Stay in our house for one night."

Yin Jiu was very happy: "Great, thanks to the prince, I can also live in this fairy cave."

Xie Changan asked the kitchen to send over some midnight snacks, and the three of them went back to the study.

Jiang Li spread out the rice paper and wrote down the contents that needed to be investigated one by one.

"First, when and where did Princess Ruili meet the three princes? How did they get to know each other?"

"Second, the more detailed the story of their relationship, the better."

She thought about it, then picked up the pen and wrote the third one.

"Third, when and where did the Princess of Runan County die? What was the cause of death?"

Xie Changan looked solemn: "Do you think the death of the Princess of Runan County was strange?"

Jiang Li said: "I don't know, I just think it's too coincidental."

"Fourth, why are all the princesses seeking marriage? I remember that the King of Pagan said that it is also OK for a princess to marry a minister."

If Princess Ruili had any means to bewitch the three princes, why didn't she target the important officials in the court?

For example, the emperor's confidants, Cui Jue, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhang Huai, the commander of the Imperial Guards, and others, who hold real power, can bring more benefits to the Kingdom of Pagan than the three idle princes.

"Well, you are right." Xie Changan turned to Yin Jiu again, "Yin Jiu, what do you think? Do you have anything to add?"

Yin Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Prince Zhongshan said that he didn't know why, but he felt like he was possessed when he saw Princess Ruili. Little Sixteen, don't you think this situation is familiar?"

"Brother Yinjiu, you mean," Jiang Li was surprised, "Gu magic?"

The Kingdom of Pagan is adjacent to southern Xinjiang, so it is understandable that Princess Ruili knows witchcraft.

Xie Changan groaned: "It is indeed a bit similar. However, there is the Great Jin in the palace. Could it be that Princess Ruili has never encountered it?"

Yin Jiu said: "Let His Majesty find a reason to summon them to the palace, and then let Da Jin give it a try and we will know."

Jiang Li nodded: "Then bring Erjin and Sanjin into the palace as well, so that the three brothers can meet each other."

The three of them discussed for a while, and then the kitchen brought three bowls of hot wontons.

The wontons were made very delicately, like little goldfish, and were served with fragrant chicken soup. Yinjiu ate one bowl and ordered another.

Jiang Li also wanted to have another bowl, but Xie Changan held her back: "Eat too much at night, be careful of indigestion."

Jiang Li snorted: "For breakfast tomorrow, I want two bowls!"

Yinjiu was left holding a bowl of wontons, not knowing whether to eat it or not, feeling extremely resentful.

Why doesn’t anyone care whether he will get indigestion if he eats too much?

He's so full of dog food!

The next day, after Yin Jiu returned to the palace, he reported to the emperor and Governor Liao about what happened during their night visit to the Prince's Mansion last night.

"Gu magic?" Nangong Qinghe's eyebrows were twisted.

We finally eradicated the Miao Gu, could it be that it has resurfaced now?

Liao Wuyong also frowned: "If the Princess of Pagan really knows witchcraft, and now she has set her sights on the prince of the royal family, could she be... colluding with the rebellious king?"

I have to say, the old ones are the most experienced. After sorting out the information, they immediately found the key points.

Nangong Qinghe gasped. If Liao Wuyong's guess was true, it meant that the Mirror Demon wanted to attack the royal bloodline again!

Currently, both the Imperial Concubine and the Concubine Shu are pregnant. These two royal babies still in their belly must be the targets that the Mirror Monster wants to attack the most!

"Summon Prince Jing'an and Duke Dingguo to the palace."

Jiang Li and Xie Changan were hurriedly summoned into the palace again.

After listening to Liao Wuyong's analysis, the two of them couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

What Liao Wuyong said is very possible!

Jiang Li said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, as long as the two ladies carry the jade talisman, the dragon baby in their belly will be safe."

"Your Majesty and the Crown Prince should also pay attention. The jade talisman must be worn with you. Never take it off. Remember, remember!"

Nangong Qinghe was slightly relieved: "Okay, I'll remember that."

Yin Jiu said: "Can't we just take the princess..."

He made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Nangong Qinghe shook his head: "No. Pagan has made great contributions by offering cassava, and has just established diplomatic relations with the Great Chu. The princess who was married to the emperor died inexplicably not long after arriving in the capital. This will hurt the harmony between the two countries."

In this case, how can other countries feel at ease to establish diplomatic relations with Da Chu?

Liao Wuyong bowed and said, "Your Majesty is right. Please ask the Queen to hold another family banquet."

The banquet was for the royal family members in Beijing, and Princess Ruili, as the fiancée of the Prince of Runan, was also supposed to attend.

At that time, let Dajin and the other three roosters test it and we will know the result.

"Okay." Nangong Qinghe nodded.
