The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

King Jingyuan was so angry that his nose was about to smoke. I think the scenery in the courtyard is nice? What is in this courtyard?

But now is not the time to quarrel with Xiao Mubei. Xiao Zirui gritted his teeth and walked into the front hall. "I saw that the jasmine in my eighth brother's yard was blooming well, so I took a closer look."

"If Third Brother likes it, I'll have someone send it to your house later." Xiao Mubei picked up the tea, blew on it, and took a sip.

Xiao Zirui sat down, suppressed his anger, and then said, "Eighth brother, to be honest, in addition to coming to see you today after not seeing you for many years, Third Brother also has something else he wants to talk to you about."

"Please speak, third brother." Xiao Mubei's attitude was neither cold nor indifferent, and his face was as cold as ever.

When had Xiao Zirui ever been treated so coldly? If it weren't for his grand plan, he would have walked away long ago. Today, in order to talk to Xiao Mubei about this matter, he deliberately didn't even bring a follower.

Xiao Mubei, I will let you be proud for a few more days. When my plan is about to come true, I will trample your face under my feet and see if you can still put on this coffin face!

Xiao Zirui secretly took a few deep breaths to suppress the anger in his heart, then he approached Xiao Mubei and deliberately said mysteriously: "Eighth brother, do you know why my foolish brother was punished by the emperor to be confined a few days ago?"

Xiao Mubei shook his head. He didn’t know and didn’t want to know.

Unfortunately, Xiao Zirui wanted to speak, and Xiao Mubei could only listen.

Xiao Zirui looked around again and confirmed that even Baiyu and Heimu were not there. Then he lowered his voice and said, "I found that there is something strange about the death of Concubine Xian."

Xiao Mubei stood up suddenly, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Bai Yu and Hei Mu appeared like ghosts in an instant, and shouted together, "Your Highness!"

Xiao Mubei calmed himself down, waved his hand to let the two of them go out, then sat down again and asked anxiously, "What do you mean, Third Brother?"

Concubine Xian entered the palace at the age of fifteen, when Emperor Sui Ming was already forty-one. She gave birth to Xiao Mubei at the age of eighteen. When she was thirty-one, Xiao Mubei joined the military camp, and Concubine Xian asked to leave the palace and lived in a separate courtyard. She died of illness at the age of thirty-five. The disease came very suddenly, and Xiao Mubei tried his best to rush over, but still failed to see his mother for the last time!

Xiao Zirui was finally somewhat satisfied with Xiao Mubei's reaction, but he still didn't show it on his face. He moved closer to Xiao Mubei and said, "I was in the palace that day and passed by Fanghua Palace where Empress Xian once lived. Thinking of how good Empress Xian had been to me, I walked in and wanted to pay my respects to her. Unexpectedly, I secretly heard two palace maids gossiping that Empress Xian had suffered from an incurable disease when she was in the palace. They overheard the imperial physician saying that Empress Xian was not sick, but poisoned!"

Boom, it was like a bolt from the blue struck Xiao Mubei's head. He thought about the year he left, when his mother was always coughing, but he was so excited about joining the military camp that he ignored his mother's health.

The military camp was thousands of miles away. During the four years that his mother lived in the villa, he only came back once. At that time, his mother had put on makeup, and he did not notice anything unusual. Now that he thinks about it, his mother needed someone to support her when she walked, but she concealed it very well. Once, she almost fell and he saw her, but she just smiled and said the ground was too slippery.

The year his mother passed away, he was shocked to hear the sad news and rushed back to the capital overnight. However, the journey was too far and even though several horses died, his mother had already been buried when he returned. Qingxi cried and told him that it was his mother who did not allow anyone to notify him in advance, saying that she did not want him to see her last appearance.

Is there something else going on behind all this? Although Xiao Zirui must have some ulterior motive in telling him this, Xiao Mubei had to jump into it even if it was a trap. Since the matter involved Empress Xian, he had to get to the bottom of it no matter what!

Xiao Zirui was still talking, "I was so shocked when I heard it that I let the two maids go. I couldn't find them anymore. I had no choice but to tell my father about it and asked him to investigate it thoroughly. Unexpectedly, my father scolded me and even confined me to the mansion. I have been thinking about it for a while and I feel that I have to let you know about this. Concubine Xian treated me very well. I always regarded her as half a mother. Eighth brother, we can't let her die unclearly."

Xiao Mubei gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down. This was a serious matter and he couldn't lose his composure now!

"Thank you, Third Brother. I will get to the bottom of this matter and will never let my mother die in vain." Xiao Mubei's hands tightly grasped the back of the chair, veins bulging, and there seemed to be turbulent waves in his eyes, but he suppressed his emotions, making it impossible to peek into his inner thoughts.

Xiao Zirui achieved his goal, so he stood up and said, "Eighth brother, if you need any help from me, just tell me. I will do it as long as I can do it, no matter how hard it takes."

Xiao Mubei agreed, and Xiao Zirui kept nagging him to take care of his health, not to be impulsive, and not to go against his father, playing the role of a good brother to the fullest.

As soon as he walked out of the Dingbei Palace and got on the carriage, his face darkened. After the carriage went two intersections, Su Mochen got on in a flash.

"Your Highness, is everything done?"

"It's done. As long as Xiao Mubei starts investigating Concubine Xian, the Crown Prince will definitely deal with him. No matter who takes down the other, we just need to watch the fire from the other side of the river. By diverting his attention, he will have no time to care about the affairs of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion, and he will not hold on to Yue Haoran's affairs."

Xiao Zirui's eyes were gloomy, but then he turned to look at Su Mochen, "You used this trick of diverting trouble to someone else, it's a good use of it."

"Thanks to your great blessings, we were able to spy on the mystery of Concubine Xian's matter. Let the Crown Prince and King Dingbei fight first, and we will use this time to make plans. By then, we will have no worries about achieving great things."

Xiao Zirui finally showed a smile on his gloomy face, "This time, let me be the fisherman and see who will win in this fight between the snipe and the clam!"

"Oh, right, I met Chu Yunxi today. I saw that my eighth brother was quite protective of her. I'm afraid she was whispering in my eighth brother's ear. If there is a chance, it's better to deal with her so that she won't get in the way."

When Xiao Zirui thought of Chu Yunxi's rudeness and neglect towards him, he was filled with hatred. Why did the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion let her escape? If you don't remove the root of the problem, it will eventually lead to disaster! This woman doesn't look like a simple person.

But what he was thinking was not simple. He just wanted to persuade Xiao Mubei. He didn't take her seriously at all. In his heart, killing Chu Yunxi was as easy as killing an ant.

"Yes, Your Highness." Su Mochen responded in a deep voice, then stopped the carriage, jumped down, and soon disappeared in the crowd.

Xiao Zirui was left alone in the carriage, with a sinister gleam in his eyes!
