Peerless Forensic Doctor: Leng Wang's Waste Chai Concubine

Chapter 177
"By the way, has there been any news from Mr. Chu recently?" Xuanyuan Che's expression was calm, and so was his voice, with no trace of happiness or anger.

Xia Feng couldn't tell what mood he was in, so he could only hold his tone cautiously, and replied: "My lord, Mr. Chu has not heard any news back these days, and no one has been to Prince Yu's mansion. Basically haven't seen him for months."

"Understood." Xuanyuan Che pinched his brows wearily.

"My lord..." Xia Feng was shocked.

"It's okay, I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine when I go back and rest for a while." Xuanyuan Che waved his hand at him, stared at him for a moment, and then said: "Put some of our people into the Chu Mansion, follow them quietly, and make sure they are in the mansion. , don’t make any big movements.”

"Yes."

Ever since he had a disagreement with Chu Qianzhi in the restaurant last time, Chu Qianzhi left angrily that day and never appeared in front of him again.

It's not that he doesn't know that he is still angry with him in his heart, it's just that when he is not peaceful outside, it is better to have an extra layer of protection, knowing that he is within the scope of his ability to protect him is enough.

For the rest, let time dilute it.

When Xuanyuan Che returned to Prince Yu's Mansion, Lao Lin was walking around the door anxiously.

He was holding a candle-wick lantern in one hand, and he kept stroking his long beard with the other hand. He had an anxious expression on his face. When he raised his eyes, he caught the touch of the crisp white clothes, and his eyes lit up immediately. Hastily called out: "My lord!"

"Why are you standing here, what happened?" Xuanyuan Che couldn't help frowning.

Lao Lin has always been prudent and restrained, and it is rare for him to be so speechless and anxious, could it be...

When he was not around, what happened in the palace?

However, Lao Lin didn't answer his question at the first time. He jumped over his body and looked behind him on tiptoe. After looking at him for a long time, he said, "Did the concubine come back?"

Xuanyuan Che laughed. "She has a mansion, and she will be gossiped when she comes out."

"That's true...but it's going to be very fast, we're going to get married soon." Lao Lin nodded with a serious expression, and raised the lantern in his hand to Xuanyuan Che again.

"My lord, let's go back and talk."

Xuanyuan Che was brought back to Xuanfeng Hall by Lao Lin, and he wanted to wait for him to finish speaking, go wash himself, read a few memorials before going to bed.

Who knew that Lao Lin would not say anything about life and death, and insisted on waiting until he had finished everything.

Xuanyuan Che was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't say anything more, and went into the clean room with his middle clothes.After taking a warm bath, the discomfort on my body disappeared, and I felt very refreshed.

Her jet-black hair was like satin, with drops of water hanging down her hair, and her delicate and delicate face, like white jade, carried a touch of leisurely ease.He wiped his hair with a soft towel, lazily put it on his shoulders, and leaned casually on the couch outside, waiting for Lao Lin to come in and explain to him what he wanted to say to him just now.

Lao Lin was torn in his heart, and finally calmed down, so he leaned forward and quickly slipped in from the door, and closed the door thoughtfully.

Xuanyuan Che picked up a memorial and flipped through it in his hand. When he heard the movement, he didn't lift his head, his gaze was still fixed on the memorial in his hand.

"Go ahead."

Lao Lin straightened his expression, cleared his throat, and asked hesitantly: "Uh... my lord, do you know that there is something going on in the capital right now, and it's very... amazing Why?"

"Oh?" Xuanyuan Che slightly raised his eyebrows upon hearing this. "Since when did you start paying attention to these things?"

"It's not considered to be concerned, but I just heard a word or two from friends outside by chance, and felt... something was wrong."

Lao Lin twitched, and looked up at Xuanyuan Che, always feeling that this matter was something serious.

After being silent for a while, as if he had suddenly made up his mind, Lao Lin said quickly with witty words: "It is rumored that the brothel girl in the flower alley and His Royal Highness Yu Wang are in the same mind, oh, it is the Ningxiang room that you gave birth to Ge, I have already asked you about the girl, her name is Hua Xiangrong, I heard that she is indeed a beautiful person... Hey, hey, that's right."

Seeing that the topic was getting farther and farther away, Lao Lin stroked his beard in embarrassment, and said: "This old slave just feels... If Princess Xiran knows about this matter, wouldn't it be to add trouble to Princess Xiran's heart?" Is it? So I’m here to ask, my lord, your opinion.”

Right now, His Royal Highness King Yu and Princess Xiran have finally calmed down, and it's time to mix oil with honey, so how can they suffer any more turmoil from being cruel to others.

What's more, His Royal Highness King Yu of their family was brought up by Lao Lin since he was a child. Lao Lin is the latest to understand his temperament. How can he feel pity for a girl from such a place?

It must be that Hua Xiangrong who is spreading gossip!
That's why there are such a series of broken things coming out!

Lao Lin's thinking here is wild and unconstrained, and basically he has figured out the identities of those people who are behind the scenes.Xuanyuan Che at the other end froze in place for a moment, his long brows that entered his temples were tightly frowned, and a sternness suddenly appeared in his phoenix eyes.

"What did you say?"

That voice was as indifferent as the ice in February. It was an extremely hot early summer night, but it made people tremble from the cold. Lao Lin was almost frightened by the voice without the slightest emotion.

He subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and then repeated the words he said just now to Xuanyuan Che.

The more Lao Lin explained, the depth of Xuanyuan Che's phoenix eyes became more and more like a bottomless cold pool, and the trance seemed to gather a group of raging waves.

Only one opportunity is missing, and all those who look in can be crushed.

"Is that how it's spread?"

"...Yes, it has been spread outside for a long time." When Lao Lin saw that Xuanyuan Che was really angry, he quickly and softly comforted him: "But my lord, this old servant has already suppressed this news, and I thought it was true. Something was wrong and I didn't pay much attention to it, but the rumors in the market were very hot, so the old servant used some tricks to force it down."

"En, you did a good job this time." Xuanyuan Che calmed down a little when he heard that he had suppressed it, but the deepness in his eyes still didn't fade away, and it was still shockingly dark.

"My lord, does Princess Xiran know about this matter?" Lao Lin asked with some concern.

Does Yun Xiran know?
Xuanyuan Che was taken aback for a moment.

He... When he was in Youning Mansion just now, Yun Xiran didn't seem to have any abnormality?

Apart from the fact that this woman really didn't know about it, she deliberately didn't get in touch with her.

Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Che felt a little uncomfortable.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Yun Xiran stand up and confront him about this matter?

but……

There seemed to be no movement at all.

The water-colored thin lips were tightly pursed, Xuanyuan Che's expression was unpredictable, and a hint of helplessness in gnashing of teeth appeared in the phoenix eyes.

"This king doesn't know."

Xuanyuan Che really didn't know.

Lao Lin was taken aback, and asked tentatively: "Uh, then... did Princess Xiran show something... different from usual?"

"...No." As soon as Xuanyuan Che heard him ask such a question and thought about it carefully, he felt even more helpless.

Lao Lin raised his eyebrows, but he didn't stop stroking his beard. He walked up and down the outer hall of Xuanfeng Palace with his hands behind his back. After thinking for a long time, he said in a deep tone: "My lord... ..."

He raised his hand and patted Xuanyuan Che's shoulder, and looked into his line of sight with some sympathy.

Lao Lin only spoke half of what he said, but it was still more effective in warning people than if he had explained everything clearly to Xuanyuan Che.

"Go down and look into that Hua Xiangrong matter carefully, not letting go of any details." Xuanyuan Che snorted coldly, with a cold smile on his lips.

"You dare to make up bad things about this king, you really are impatient!"

The lights in Prince Yu's mansion were brightly lit all night, but the candles in Youning's mansion on the other side had not been extinguished.

The body exuded a refreshing fragrance just after bathing, and the dense mist still hovered over the clean room and did not dissipate.

Yun Xiran squinted lazily, and after walking out slowly from behind the bathtub, she casually put on the middle coat that was hanging on the side, and gently tied a knot in the button at the waist.

"Princess." Xiao Jiao was sitting on a chair, wiping the wet hair of the glutinous rice dumpling who had just taken a shower. honey water.

Yun Xiran took it, took a sip, and frowned.

"Not sweet, how many spoonfuls of honey did you add?"

"Not much, I added half a teaspoon."

"Oh, it's too little... This one isn't sweet anymore." Yun Xiran muttered, her eyes widened, and she looked at Xiao Jiao with an obedient baby look. "I'll add two more spoonfuls."

"Princess, it's bad for your health to drink too much sweet stuff at night." Xiao Jiao couldn't laugh or cry, "Besides, this stuff can't be found in the whole Nanxia market, and the prince doesn't know where he got two cans. I brought them here for you, you have already drank most of the jar, and when you are done, it will be gone."

When Yun Xiran heard it, she immediately felt like a leaking balloon, and even the light in those bright almond eyes dimmed a lot unconsciously.

"Okay, well..."

Yun Xiran had no choice but to obediently drink the warm water with a spoonful of honey, basically just a little bit of honey sweetness, to moisten her throat and satisfy her mouth craving.

The glutinous rice ball was lying obediently on the chair, enjoying the feeling of Xiao Jiao's slightly cold slender hands moving and wiping it, but suddenly smelled the familiar fragrance and a very special fragrance.

that aroma...

Very tempting!

The glutinous rice ball jumped up, sniffed and smelled everywhere, then glanced around several times, and finally fixed its eyes on the silver-white teacup in Yun Xiran's hand.
