Chapter 193

Li Huai thought that the resurrection tonight was safe, and when he heard the news, his expression changed drastically.

"Why is it gone?"

Immediately, he led several cronies of Wangfu Wei into the mourning hall to search, and sure enough, there was nothing in the courtyard except the empty coffin.

"Even if you can't recover your soul, it won't disappear with the corpse, right?" Li Huai asked her again because she didn't know, "Xi Lan, tell me honestly, is there any hidden secret in it?"

Because she said she wanted to revive Xue Ping'an, Li Huai specially read the ancient books about the revival.It mentioned that the resurrection of the soul must be blessed with a powerful magic weapon. Although he didn't ask her carefully, but seeing that she always ran to the backyard on weekdays, and still recognized the girl named Qin Yu as her god-sister, there must be some reason.

Now that Xue Ping'an's body and soul are gone, she didn't dare to hide any more, she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "The water ripples have been on Qin Yu's body, I persuaded him to help me bring Ping An back to life..."

"But why did you keep it from me?" They had come to this point, and Li Huai was a little disappointed to learn that she had concealed such an important event.

"I have a reason, that Shui Lianzhu has a weird personality, he doesn't want others to know his existence..."

Hearing this, the other party became even more angry, "Is this king also considered someone else?"

Of course she didn't mean that, she quickly shook her head and replied, "I just think you don't know much about it, why bother to make you think about it!"

Li Huaijun's face was sullen, and he said angrily: "Yes, where does your world need this king? You can do everything well by yourself, but this king is dragging you down!"

She anxiously explained: "Li Huai, I've never thought about it like this!"

"But you did!"

Hearing the other party's disappointment in her, Xi Lan also felt that it was really wrong for her to hide it from him, so she had to bow her head and admit her mistake: "I really didn't expect this to happen, I'm sorry."

Li Huai was a little angry at first, seeing her admitting her mistake like this, the anger in her heart suddenly subsided.

Letting out a long breath, he sighed helplessly: "You may be born with this kind of thinking and behavior, and you can't change it at all. This king forced you!"

Xi Lan looked over in confusion, and in the night, she couldn't see the expression on that face clearly, so she didn't know whether he accepted her apology, she reached out and pulled his wrist, as expected, held the warm big hands.

"Can you stop being angry?"

The other party didn't answer, but she felt that he was looking at herself in the dark, and asked again: "How are you?"

"Hmm..." After a while, such a voice came from over there.

She felt a little better.

The two then inspected the mourning hall again, and ordered the entire palace to start searching. After such a busy schedule, it was almost dawn.

Xi Lan sat wearily in the courtyard of Anrui Pavilion, resting her forehead with her hands and sighing long.

"Princess!" Qing Lian who was ordered by her to find Qin Yu came over to call her lightly.

As soon as she heard the voice, she knew the result.

"Qin Yu is gone?"

"Yes!"

"Okay, I got it, go down and rest!" She didn't lift her head, and waved her hand to send him down.

Qinglian said with concern: "Princess Wang didn't sleep all night, why don't I serve you to sleep?"

She suddenly raised her head and said: "My lord took someone to find Ping An's whereabouts. He hasn't come back yet. I'll wait for him to come back..."

Just as he was talking, Li Huai hurried into the courtyard.

Xi Lan had no hope of finding Xue Ping'an, but she still stood up from the stone bench.

"how?"

Li Huai shook his head at her.

After she sent Qinglian down, she said softly: "Qin Yu also seems to have disappeared out of thin air. I guess, Qin Yu may be Shui Lianzhu. I have been deceived by him these days! Back then in the inn in Linxi Town , I accidentally found something wrong with Qin Yu, that's why I discovered that Shui Lianzhu, looking at it now, I don't think it was my luck, it is very likely that Shui Lianzhu approached me on purpose!"

"You mean, Qin Yu is not a mortal at all?"

She shook her head, and said uncertainly: "Is Qin Yu alone, or the same person as Shui Lianzhu? It's not difficult, but I can't figure it out, why did he take away Ping An?"

"My lord! My lord! It's not good!" The two were talking, and someone ran in from outside shouting loudly.

He heard the voice of the butler Uncle Sun from afar, Li Huai turned around and asked, "But there is news of safety?"

Uncle Sun paused to catch his breath, and replied in denial: "No, it is the news from the Duke's Mansion..."

The expressions of both of them changed. It was just dawn, what will happen to the Duke's Mansion?

Li Huai asked with a sullen face, "What's the matter?"

Uncle Sun glanced at Xi Lan who was next to him with some worry, and he probably knew that it was not appropriate to talk to her about the affairs of the Duke's Mansion.

"Speak!" Li Huai repeated again.

Only then did the other party nod and replied: "Just now, someone from the Duke's Mansion spread the news that Princess Chaoyang...had hanged herself..."

"What?" Hearing this, Li Huai nervously took a big step forward.

Xi Lan was also shocked, seeing Ning Wanzhuo and Lou Kuo leave that day, thinking that the two would return to Mongolia soon, why did they commit suicide after only two days?

"I don't know the specific situation, so the people from the Duke's Mansion just came over and passed a message and then left!"

It's true that misfortunes never come singly, Xue Ping'an's whereabouts are still unknown, and something happened to Ning Wanzhu again!

"Go and have a look!" A clear voice sounded from the side of Li Huai, and he looked over with a solemn expression.

"Since the Duke's Mansion sent someone to pass on the message, how can you pass if you don't go?" Xi Lan knew that he wanted to go to the Duke's Mansion the first time he heard the news. Worried that she would think too much.

She took the initiative to bring it up with understanding, because she understood that what should come is the hit, and she can't hide it.

After hearing her words, Li Huai immediately walked anxiously towards the gate of the courtyard. Before he could leave, he remembered something. He turned his head, looked at her and said, "Xi Lan, why don't you go with me?"

Xi Lan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Li Huai, do you really want me to go with you?"

Li Huai nodded firmly and replied: "You are Princess Xu, you should accompany me wherever you go!"

Xi Lan was supposed to be moved, but when she thought of the vision she suddenly saw during the competition at the racetrack that day, her feeling became sad.

With her temperament, she herself was unwilling to go, but she did not refuse Li Huai's invitation.

The two of them left the mansion immediately without staying too long, got into the carriage that Uncle Sun had prepared long ago, and rushed to the Duke's mansion without stopping.

In the early morning, there was no one on Jinling Street, and it was as quiet as night.

The atmosphere inside the car is generally the same here.

None of them spoke, each with their own concerns, sitting peacefully.

But not long after, Xi Lan felt Li Huai holding her hand lightly. He didn't say anything, but exerted a slight force to make her feel his presence.

She asked him softly: "Li Huai, do you know why I came with you?"

"Huh?" He looked at her cheek with handsome eyes, those big eyes, in the dim carriage, were flexible and soft.

"I'm not afraid of what will happen when you go, but I want to spend this moment with you..."

Li Huai smiled in relief and took her into his arms.

She knew that he must not have understood the meaning of her words in time, so she smiled bitterly, that's all, he will understand soon!

Not long after, the carriage stopped firmly outside Duke Ningguo's mansion.

This is the first time Xi Lan has come to this place. Outside the gate, there is already a beautiful woman standing. She is dressed in a blue robe and is luxurious, but she is pure and spotless, which is eye-catching.

Xi Lan raised her head and looked up, just in time to meet the woman's still and moving eyes. She had never seen this person before, but she felt very familiar at a glance.

"Mrs. Rong Guo, how is she doing now?" Li Huai asked without any formalities, leading her up the stairs.

Only then did the other party withdraw his gaze from Xi Lan's face, "Why don't you go and see for yourself, my lord."

So under the guidance of Mrs. Rong Guo, they arrived at the courtyard where Ning Wanxiu lived.

Mrs. Rongguo stopped and pointed to Li Huai's wing room, which was surrounded by Duke Ning and other concubines.

Li Huai was about to take Xi Lan in to visit, but Mrs. Rong Guo shouted: "Xi Lan!"

She directly called Xi Lan's name, Xi Lan immediately stopped and said to Li Huai, "My lord, go in first!"

Li Huai left her here and walked into the compartment a few steps.

"You are born with the ability to predict, presumably you already know what will happen next, what are you going to do?"

Her heart tightened, and she asked the other party: "Mrs. Rong Guo has a wonderful plan, why do you need to ask more?"

Zhuge Nianci smiled slightly. In fact, he only knew that she had the ability to predict, but he didn't know where it was, so he deliberately asked.

"It seems that you really foresaw that Wanzhu is pregnant!"
