Goddess of Heaven

Chapter 214 He's Not Here

The prince reported to him two days ago that the case of the murderer has already been figured out. If the prince speaks out on this occasion today, the emperor will undoubtedly build up the prestige for the prince.

Prince Qu Haoyu was a little overwhelmed by flattery, he quickly stood up and bowed to the emperor first, then bowed slightly to all the envoys present, with a humble and good attitude.

"The murderer was extremely cunning this time. Fortunately, Xiao Wang and his fourth brother personally supervised the investigation. Now there are some clues. I think the murderer will be arrested and brought to justice in a few days. Please rest assured, the Xiyang National Congress will try our best to protect you." .”

The words not only explained the current situation, but also expressed the position of the Xiran Kingdom. The emperor of the Xirang Kingdom nodded in satisfaction.

"Our crown prince is really shrewd and capable. The crown prince is in charge of Danbi this time, which saves the emperor a lot of worry." Yang Guifei said softly.

"That's right, even the matter of tracking down the murderer was only found out by Haoyu. No, that person is still in prison in the East Palace, and the original murderer will be found out sooner rather than later." I glanced at the pale Concubine Yang Gui, and sighed in my heart, wanting to fight me, hum.

Si Chenyue has watched many Gongdou dramas in modern times. Looking at the two hostesses above, she couldn't help sighing in her heart. There are palace fights everywhere in life. I didn't expect that I could participate in Gongdou so closely. It's really ironic. .

Concubine Yang had already heard what Concubine Yang said. Her son was dragged away by the prince as a backer, so she was naturally upset, but she was more worried about the safety of her son Qu Haotian. At this time, it was revealed that the prince was in charge of Danbi this time, and it was nothing more than a reminder to the emperor. Don't let your son be wronged because of the murderer, but the queen's four-two-handed method is obviously a step higher than that of Concubine Yang. It seems that Concubine Yang and the fourth prince Qu Haotian are not in a good situation.

When she first came to the Imperial Garden, she had already seen Qu Haotian, still in light armor, personally leading a team of guards to patrol the Imperial Garden, and when she saw them coming, she just nodded and greeted them from a distance.

At this time, the night has been covered, the palace lanterns have already been lit, and the lanterns are just lit up, colorful and full of light.

Seeing that Qu Haotian was not far away, Si Chenyue was talking to the guards, so she asked Baili Yixuan for a vacation and asked Yan Ya to accompany him to eat and drink, while she quietly left the table and walked towards Qu Haotian.

"Haotian."

It was already night, and Qu Haotian had just finished explaining to the guards before sending another team over, when he heard someone calling him, and turned his head to see Si Chenyue not far away.

"Why did you come here?" Looking at the brightly lit place, he saw that everyone was still eating, drinking and chatting there.

"I'm tired after sitting for a long time. Come and walk around. How are you? Why didn't you see Cao Jing? Didn't you say you were together?" Si Chenyue asked, looking around.

"Don't look for it, he's not here."

"Where is it not here? Shouldn't you be patrolling here on such an important day today?" Si Chenyue didn't understand what he said.

There was a trace of pain in Qu Haotian's eyes, and he whispered in a hoarse voice: "He was arrested by the prince."

"What? Why?" Si Chenyue asked in disbelief.

"The crown prince suspected that General Cao and his son colluded with the murderer, which made this murder case unsolved for a long time." Qu Haotian's words were full of helplessness.

"How is it possible?" Si Chenyue denied it casually, and then stopped talking, because she had already realized that it was impossible for the Cao family father and son to collude with the murderer. What the prince did was nothing more than to suppress Qu Haotian's party. Military power, Cao Jing and Qu Haotian are as close as brothers, how could he miss such a good opportunity, seeing the pain and helplessness in Qu Haotian's eyes, she thought, he must be blaming himself too.
