The general and I form a pair

The peaceful days didn't last long, and King Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty came to Beijing.

Xiao Lin, Prince of Yu, was a descendant of Concubine Li of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Although he and the Emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty were not brothers of the same mother, the two had a good relationship and were brothers and sisters.

King Yu was over half a hundred years old, but his appearance was very young, and he looked like a hermit in every gesture.Yu Wang served half his life as a soldier, but he had no heirs under his knees, nor had he ever had a wife or concubine.It is rumored that when King Yu was young, he fell in love with a woman so much that he couldn't get it. Since then, he has been disheartened and never married. It can be said that he is extremely infatuated.

"His Royal Highness Prince Yu, our princess died so badly. The Emperor Liang not only ignored it, but also put us under house arrest, not allowing us to escort the princess back to Southern Tang. The prince must make decisions for the princess." Qinglan complained indignantly.

"Qinglan, don't be rude." Qingying scolded. "The prince is here to ask the princess for an explanation, what are you in a hurry for?"

Qinglan pouted her lips, but kept silent.

Since Princess Qinghe and Monk Jing'an were poisoned to death by the same poison, the case is complicated and the real culprit can't be found immediately.Of course, it is not ruled out that there are other countries deliberately designing to separate Daliang and Southern Tang.Therefore, when the case was not solved, the envoys who came to congratulate him had not yet left Beijing.

Although Emperor Cheng Kang didn't explicitly ask them to stay, but at this time, whoever leaves is highly suspected.What's more, if you stay here, you can see the excitement in Daliang, so why not do it.

"I, Daliang, didn't do this carefully. I haven't solved the case so far. I asked all the envoys to stay in Beijing, and troubled the King of Yu to go there in person." Emperor Chengkang raised his glass and said, "This glass of wine is my right. I apologize to you all."

"Oh, my Majesty, you can't do this. This matter has a lot to do with it. Your Majesty's move shows how much you attach importance to Princess Qinghe of the Southern Tang Dynasty. We should cooperate with your Majesty." Yelu, the young prince of Beicang Kingdom, said.

"Princess Qinghe is the most beloved princess of the emperor's brother, and also the most beloved niece of the king. Now that someone died in Daliang for no reason, the emperor's heart is very uncomfortable. If it weren't for Xiao Wang's persuasion, even the emperor's brother would have I came to Daliang in person. Of course, Brother Huang has absolutely no intention of blaming the Holy Majesty, but it is hard to accept it in his heart, after all, he still hopes that Nantang can form a good relationship with Daliang in Qin and Jin Dynasties."

The words 'Qin and Jin are good', coming out of his mouth, seem to have a sense of irony.

After all, Xiao Lin seemed to glance at Gu Yan unintentionally, as well as Ah Qing who was beside him.His gaze stayed on Ah Qing's body for a moment without any trace, and he lowered his head halfway, his eyes were dim and unclear.

"He's putting pressure on the Holy One." Ah Qing said in a low voice.

"As the 'best' brother of the Southern Tang Emperor, it is understandable for King Yu to say that." Gu Yan said.

Ah Qing shook his head and sighed: "The so-called comer is not kind, the impression of King Yu is not simple."

"We looked at it slowly. It's a fox, and it will always show its tail. Now in the boundary of my Daliang, if we want to do something, it depends on whether we are willing or not."

"Indeed, if you dare to be dishonest, my magic bow and giant crossbow just took shape, so I can use him to test its power." Ah Qing bared her small white teeth and said arrogantly.

Gu Yan smoothed his hair for him, and looked at him with burning eyes. If it wasn't for the banquet, he tried his best to control himself, at this moment, he would have been...

"Ahem, let me ask if you two can pay more attention." Ji Kang couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to remind him aloud.Otherwise, these two masters who are not afraid of nothing may do something 'unfashionable'.

"My lord heard that the reason why Young General Gu refused to marry was because of this young general Xue. Seeing young general Xue's appearance now, my niece is not wronged."

"My lord, the princess is pleased with the young general Gu, so she inserted a man in. The slave always thought that it was this beautiful man who was afraid that the princess would marry into the general's mansion and rob him of his favor, so he murdered the princess. When she arrived in Daliang, she never had any enmity with anyone, how could the princess go there for no reason." said the guard Su Da.

"Guard Su's words are wrong. It's still the same sentence. At the palace banquet, Princess Qinghe explained in public that she would no longer be married to my general. The princess's adult beauty is too late for us to be grateful, so how can we harm her?" Ah Qing said.

"Su Da, there is no proof, how can you talk nonsense and still not back down." Xiao Lin reprimanded.

Su Da glared at Ah Qing gloomily, and stopped talking.

"Why do I feel that Su Da is honestly like a pug in front of King Yu? Does he remember that he is Princess Qinghe's bodyguard, not King Yu's bodyguard?"

Ah Qing looked over, and met Xiao Lin's gaze, his eyes met, Ah Qing didn't dodge, and raised his eyebrows happily at him, as if provocative.

This expression fell into Xiao Lin's eyes, which made him stunned for a moment, and even his eyes changed involuntarily.Said it was gentle, but with a hint of hostility and unwillingness.It's a bit complicated.

Ah Qing felt a little strange, and murmured to himself: "I'm just good-looking, so don't look at me that way."

Xu Shi realized his gaffe, Xiao Lin coughed a few times in embarrassment.

"The matter of Qinghe, I have to worry about it." Xiao Lin toasted Cheng Kangdi with a glass of wine.

"King Yu's words are serious."

Ah Qing rolled his eyes around, and murmured in his heart.

Gu Yan once said that if the murderer who killed Jing'an is found, the matter of Princess Qinghe will naturally come to light.

But Jing An died at the hands of Shu Ping, who later admitted that he was instigated by the Sixth Prince, but there was no trace of Hua Xin at the Sixth Prince's place, let alone any contacts with Nan Tang.

Then this distraction...

Ah Qing suddenly remembered that Li Mu had said that day that he had seen He Yang and the second prince seemed to be very close in the palace, could it be the second prince?

But after this period of investigation, although there is a shadow of the second prince in everything, his role in everything is nothing more than fueling the flames and getting some benefits from it.

After thinking about it, I got myself involved instead.

Ah Qing felt that he was really not good at these brain-intensive things, so he might as well ponder over his tentatively formed magic bow and giant crossbow.

The banquet this time is to welcome the king of Yu, and it is also to entertain the envoys from various countries, to express the negligence during this period.

Envoys from various countries stayed in Beijing for a long time, and naturally made many friends from Beijing and China.And the establishment of Martial Arts Hall also made all the family members become one.The atmosphere of this banquet was more relaxed than before.

Xiao Lin also gradually withdrew his posture, probably because he drank too much wine, his eyes were a little drunk.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell? This servant sees your complexion." The maid beside the Empress asked worriedly.

"Miss?"

The queen snapped back to her senses: "What's wrong?"

Cheng Kangdi noticed the strangeness of the queen, and frowned slightly: "If the queen is not feeling well, go back to the palace to rest first."

The queen's face was pale, and she forced a smile: "The concubine disturbed the interest of the Holy One, it really deserves to die."

"It's okay, your health is important, go back to the palace and ask the imperial doctor to take a good look, don't delay."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion."

The queen stood up tremblingly, and blessed Emperor Chengkang.

"The empress is in poor health, she should have a good rest. If I disturb the health of the empress because of me, wouldn't it be a crime." Xiao Lin looked at the empress with a half-smile.

The queen's body swayed violently, and the table was shaken, and the various fruit plates on the table fell to the ground.

Cheng Kangdi didn't say much, and just asked the maid to help the queen to leave.

Li Su looked worried, and asked the maid a few words, fidgeting a little in his seat.Xiao Rin's eyes fell on Li Su: "I think that when I first met Your Highness, His Highness was only ten years old. When I came to Daliang to congratulate him, His Highness often pestered me to play around. Now I am so grown up." It's gone. This king is old too."

"King Yu laughed at me. I was young at that time, and I didn't know how to be polite. I hope His Royal Highness Yu Wang will forgive me."

"Your Highness is unfamiliar when you say that. This king really likes His Highness from the bottom of his heart." He said with a smirk, "Perhaps we hit it off with His Highness. There are many feelings that are so subtle."

Li Su instinctively felt that there were other meanings in his words, but he couldn't comprehend them for a while, so he stopped talking.

After the queen left, I don't know if it was an illusion, but the atmosphere of the banquet was always a bit weird.

Ah Qing yawned boredly, and leaned against Gu Yan as if boneless.Gu Yan stretched out his hand from behind, wrapped his arms around his waist, and whispered: "Persist for a while, and it will be over soon."

Ah Qing rubbed the tears that came out of Ha, not forgetting to stare at Xiao Lin.

"I always feel that His Royal Highness Prince Yu speaks in a strange way. Hey, yes, he is an old man who lives alone, so it is reasonable to have a strange temper."

Ji Kang was sitting not far from Ah Qing. Hearing what he said, the wine he just drank almost spewed out.

He felt that he should think about life-long events.Otherwise, he will become the "old man living alone" in Ah Qing's mouth in the near future.

The case of Princess Qinghe still fell into Chu Xiao's hands.Of course, since the Jing'an case, Chu Xiao has been investigating the case, but there are too few clues and insufficient evidence.

That night, after the palace banquet was over, Chu Xiao came to the General's Mansion again without hesitation.

"Hey, Master Chu, you haven't changed your clothes for a few days." Ah Qing pinched his nose and said strangely.

Chu Xiao touched his nose in embarrassment. He has never rested for a moment since he took office.He was exhausted from the two cases.It would be nice to have time to sleep and change clothes!

"Okay, Ah Qing, isn't Master Chu doing his duty well? Look, it's already this hour, and Master Chu is still busy."

Gu Yan's words made it clear that Chu Xiao was disturbing Ah Qing's rest.

Chu Xiao is a straight-tempered person, and he can't tolerate anything other than things related to the case.Moreover, the case was entrusted to him by the Holy Majesty.But in fact, it was Gu Yan who really led the case.

He didn't dare to come to the door blatantly during the day, so he could only come at night.It so happened that today's palace banquet ended a bit late, and he didn't want to postpone today's affairs until tomorrow.As soon as the palace banquet was over, he quietly came to the general's mansion.

Unaware of Gu Yan's unhappy tone, Chu Xiaowu said by himself: "Princess Qinghe's death is too strange. I have investigated all the people who may be related to Princess Qinghe. The second prince is the most suspected one. Moreover, I do have evidence to prove that , the Second Prince did do something to Princess Qinghe, but those were not enough to kill Princess Qinghe."

"The reason you all know is that it is impossible for the second prince to marry Princess Qinghe. Since he can't get it, and he can't let others get it, the second prince must have tampered with it. But he will never let Princess Qinghe die in Daliang. Therefore , the Second Prince was not the murderer who directly killed Princess Qinghe."

"Although Huaxin was created by the Sixth Prince, from the Sixth Prince's point of view, his purpose is to try to marry Princess Qinghe. With Nantang's support, it is even more impossible to kill Princess Qinghe."

"...So, Lord Chu came here today just to say that there are no clues?"

Chu Xiao didn't understand the meaning of Gu Yan's words for a moment: "This..."

Ah Qing yawned, thinking to himself, there is no one who can make him as unsophisticated as he is.

"Master Chu, what do you think, if a person dies without warning and there is no direct evidence to prove that it was homicide?"

Chu Xiao was stunned for a while, then hesitated and said, "Could it be suicide?"
