After his wife and daughter died tragically, the scumbag prince's hair turned white overnight

Suddenly, Shen Muxi thought of Shuyin.

How much time has passed now?

How is Shuyin?

Shen Muxi was anxious to get away from Gu Shi, so that she could go alone to check on her daughter's current situation and inquire about Shuyin's whereabouts.

Unexpectedly, she could only stay within half a foot of Gu Shi again.

It was already dusk.

Su Liuxi was very flattered by Gu Shi's appearance.

When Gu Shi explained his purpose, she was even more anxious and her eyes were red as she wanted to explain, "Brother Gu Shi, I..."

"I know Shuyin is putting you in a difficult position," Gu Shi said, seeing her eyes reddened. He couldn't help but slow down his tone. "You can only know a person's face but not his heart. You are also naive. I didn't expect Shuyin to be such a greedy person."

"Is she simple?"

Shen Muxi, who was standing aside, felt that she had lost the ability to control her facial expressions.

No matter how much I try to appear calm.

When she heard Gu Shi say a bunch of adjectives that had nothing to do with Su Liuxi's true appearance, her heart couldn't help but ache.

For myself, for my daughter, and especially for Zhuifeng and Shuyin.

It's not worth it for them to have given everything for such a person in the past.

On the other side, Su Liuxi had already thrown herself into Gu Shi's arms, crying, "Brother Gu Shi, did I cause you any trouble? Blame me for getting angry when Shu Yin provoked me..."

Gu Shi's hands stopped in mid-air, hesitating for a moment, and finally embraced Su Liuxi, "No, it's my fault. I should have listened to you and beaten Shuyin to death..."

"Brother Gu Shi, you know that I never care about the attitude of the servants. I just want you to be nice to me and me alone, that's enough."

Shen Muxi couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "Yeah, that's what you said to your cousin last time."

Even though he knew that the two were not related by blood, Shen Muxi still felt that his three views were shattered when he saw the relationship between Su Liuxi and her cousin.

Gu Shi responded absentmindedly, and Su Liuxi clearly felt his perfunctory attitude.

I looked up and was about to say something...

When Chen Shiliu appeared, the two separated immediately.

"Your Majesty, Master Pei is here."

Gu Shi has been dealing with Pei Wang every now and then these days and has gained some experience.

"Let him wait in the front hall."

After saying that, he ignored Su Liuxi's disappointed look and walked towards the front hall.

After taking a few steps, he stopped and told Chen Shiliu, "Go to Zhenbaozhai and ask the boss to reserve a few of the latest styles of hairpins."

It goes without saying who the hairpin is given to.

"Yes."

...

lobby.

"Master Pei, has the Dali Temple been very idle recently?"

When Gu Shi saw Pei Wang, he spoke very rudely.

Ever since a female corpse was found in Mulan Mountain a month ago, Pei Wang has been haunting the place.

If he hadn't wronged him before, he wouldn't have wanted to cooperate at all.

Pei Wang didn't care about Gu Shi's attitude. He just stood up and made a "please" gesture to Gu Shi.

"This time, I'm afraid Prince Rong will have to go there in person."

"Master Pei, what does this mean?"

Without the emperor's order, he wanted to summon him to the Dali Temple overnight.

How dare Pei Wang?

Without waiting for Gu Shi to get angry.

Du Zhong stepped forward, opened a package and handed it to Gu Shi.

Inside was a wooden box containing a handkerchief and a piece of completely cut wall.

"This is a maid from your mansion who was murdered at the hands of bandits. Before she died, she left behind a mark, the Su family crest."

The Su family is different from other aristocratic families. They rose to prominence during Su Kang's generation and do not have any aristocratic family background.

In order to match the Rongjun Prince's Mansion, Su Kang even asked Gu Shi to help draw the family emblem.

So Gu Shi was very familiar with it.

Seeing the familiar word "Su" on the wall, Gu Shi's eyebrows jumped, but his face remained calm as usual.

"so what?"

“We were just about to close in on the bandits who had escaped from Yueya Ao when we discovered the body of the maidservant.

But in the end it was still too late.

This maid committed suicide. She was so determined to do it, and she was also connected to bandits. I believe that the inner story does not need me to say more, and Prince Rong knows it too."

Pei Wang’s words were very clear.

Gu Shi was still pretending to be clueless, "You just took me back to the Dali Temple overnight based on the so-called clues left by a maid. This is too much of a joke..."

Originally, when Shen Muxi heard Pei Wang coming to say that someone else had died in Prince Rong's Mansion, she was just standing by and watching the show.

However, the moment she saw the embroidered handkerchief that was so worn out that the pattern and words on it could no longer be seen, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart, and her mood for watching the show was instantly gone.

Shuyin!!

That was the handkerchief Zhuifeng gave to Shuyin in Danyang!

So, the one who was killed was Shuyin!!

She suddenly looked at Gu Shi.

Gu Shi no longer knew how he had convinced Pei Wang.

Or maybe Pei Wang’s visit this time was just a test.

In short, at this time, Pei Wang no longer insisted that Gu Shi follow him back to the Dali Temple as he had just done, but was ready to get up and say goodbye.

Before leaving, he gave Gu Shi a meaningful look.

"Some things may be avoided the first time, but not necessarily the second time. I hope that Lord Rong can discern people."

"In that case, I will also give it to Lord Pei," Gu Shi said with a smile on his face, but his eyes looked as if he wanted to tear Pei Wang apart. "After all, Lord Pei has said harsh words to me more than once."

Pei Wang twitched the corner of his mouth, but in the end he said nothing and left.

Shen Muxi just felt that seeing Pei Wang this time felt different.

It wasn't until Pei Wang walked away that she realized: This time when Pei Wang appeared, she still had no freedom! !

Looking down, I saw that the area where she disappeared had spread to her thighs.

What exactly is going on?

...

Su Liuxi followed Gu Shi to the front hall and eavesdropped as soon as he arrived there.

With Chen Shiliu's tacit consent, she eavesdropped smoothly.

After seeing Pei Wang leave, she put away the sinister look on her face and spoke carefully to Gu Shi, "Brother Gu Shi, Lord Pei and father have always had different political views. It's my fault that you were targeted because of me."

Gu Shi comforted him gently, "It's none of your business. If Shuyin hadn't been so greedy and asked for too much, she wouldn't have brought disaster upon herself."

It turned out that as early as when Pei Wang mentioned the dead maid, Gu Shi already knew that it was Shuyin.

He even thought that Shuyin was murdered because she was too greedy and asked Su Liuxi for money!

“Gu Shi, you have no heart.”

Shen Muxi's mind was still filled with the resolute look on Shuyin's face when she burned paper for Zhuifeng for the last time.

Shuyin loves chasing the wind.

But because of Gu Shi's beastly behavior, he missed the chance to meet Zhui Feng...

"By the way, my mother's birthday is in a few days. You and I have almost made it clear. Your father has already arrived in Beijing. In a few days, you can ask your mother to come over and get acquainted with my mother."

Hearing Gu Shi's words, Su Liuxi pursed her lips and smiled, "The princess has already informed me, and I have sent someone back to the mansion to deliver the invitation."

"That's good."

"This year is Mother's first birthday in the capital. Unfortunately, I just returned, so I can't be too loud. I can only celebrate it behind closed doors with a few close friends."

Su Liuxi shook her head. "It's a great honor for Xixi to be by Brother Gu Shi's side."

Having said that, Su Liuxi raised her eyes that were shining with water, and slowly placed her soft hands on Gu Shi's shoulders, and then around his neck.

"Brother Gu Shi..."

Her voice was different from the gentle one she usually had.

This time, her gentle tone carried a unique charm. Gu Shi's body froze, and his hand, which was about to push her away, stopped mid-air...
