The foolish prince counterattacks the concubine

Chapter 98
When Mu Xirao left the mansion, she asked the peddlers in the nearby commercial street if she had seen a beauty in white. The most conspicuous thing was that she had a gold hairpin on her head.

Back when the palace was built, it was originally a bustling shop, and the back door was close to the lush forests and bamboos in the suburbs. It was quiet and quiet, suitable for leisure and bustle. This was chosen by the emperor for his favorite Prince Rui.

It's just a pity that so many years have passed, and the ups and downs have changed. It was the advantage of occupying the capital back then, which is no longer there.In the past ten years, Prince Rui was foolish and insane.In order to do what it likes, when the Ministry of Households rebuilt the city.All the good streets and markets were assigned to the First Prince and King Ling.

The streets at the side entrance of Prince Rui's Mansion were actually divided into poor areas, and every day, there would be beggars and homeless people in a mess.

In the past, Prince Rui's mansion was down and down, but it was peaceful.Now that the palace has improved and gradually has money, Mu Xiluo is afraid that there will be robbery and theft.In the future, several powerful guards of Kongwu will be added to the back garden, and on the first and fifteenth day of every month, a porridge factory will be opened at the back door to help the common people.

So the poor people here have a good impression of Prince Rui's Mansion, every time, Chu Luoyun would accompany Mu Xirao out to give porridge.So most people here recognize them.

After asking Mu Xirao, she knew which way Chu Luoyun was going.Mu Xirao exerted her inner strength in a remote place, Qinggong quickly caught up, and finally saw Chu Luoyun's figure in the chaotic market.

Today's Chu Luoyun is dressed in a particularly unique way. Although it looks the same as usual, the details are full of beauty.According to Mu Xirao's criminal investigation experience, Chu Luoyun should have an affair with another man.

She suddenly felt a little annoyed and angry. She originally wanted to find a good family for Chu Luoyun, so that she could not let her youth be wasted on Prince Rui.I didn't expect that I was worrying unfoundedly and pretending to be passionate!
She already has someone in her heart, and she can't help but miss her, so why didn't she tell her?Afraid that he would blame her?Why is she so confused!
I will help her, Su Ri actually did this kind of thing secretly, if someone else gets the handle, and it is on the cusp of such a storm, this is another headache and tricky thing for her!
Mu Xirao couldn't help feeling even more disappointed with Chu Luoyun.I wanted to go back home.But after thinking about it, I still have a little patience, and continue to look, who is this person?No matter what happens in the future?I and the palace must have the initiative.

After nine twists and eighteen bends, Chu Luoyun walked into a small courtyard.She stood outside the window and looked into the room, she thought she would see a very eclectic scene.

The result was nothing.This small courtyard seems to have been abandoned for a long time.Weeds were growing everywhere, Mu Xirao thought about it, she seemed to have seen the location of the house here in the ledger.This is a courtyard that was abandoned by Prince Rui's residence in the early years.

What is Chu Luoyun doing here?
I saw Chu Luoyun caressing the decayed carved pillars as if lost.There was a trace of wandering expression on her face, which could be said to be melancholy, more like boundless loss.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, no one had been here, Mu Xirao and others all yawned.

Chu Luoyun reluctantly left here.

Mu Xirao was puzzled, what was she doing here when she had nothing to do?And no one came to see it, and it didn't look like she was here to meet her lover. Could it be that she had something to do with Prince Rui before?It was a spy sent by others to attack Prince Rui's residence.

wrong.wrong.Get out of here first.

Mu Xirao returned to the mansion earlier than Chu Luoyun. After dressing up, she asked Xiangcao to tell Chu Luoyun that she would come to see her as soon as she returned to the mansion.

After Chu Luoyun returned to the mansion, his expression was still a bit deserted.She was dragging her weary steps to go back to her room.But at the corner, I saw vanilla looking for her.

"Princess Chu, you are finally back. Concubine Wang has been waiting for you in the inner hall. How long have you been waiting?" Xiang Cao hurriedly said.

"My sister wants to see me, then hurry up and take me to see my sister." When Chu Luoyun heard that Mu Xirao wanted to see him, he immediately cheered up and hurried forward with a forced smile.

In the main hall.On the sandalwood table in front of Mu Xirao, there were several bolts of shining silk and satin.As soon as he saw Chu Luoyun, he opened his mouth: "Today, I went to Mu's Mansion to get some newly imported silks and satins from the south of the Yangtze River. I was just about to make some clothes for you? Where did you go?"

"Sister." Chu Luoyun showed shyness. "Today, my father is not in good health. My mother sent home news and asked me to go home. I went home to visit my father."

Mu Xirao thought that she wasn't telling the truth, it seemed that she was indeed hiding something from him.

Mu Xirao smiled softly: "It's okay, next time if you want to go out of the house, remember to let me know, lest you can't find you when you come back, I'm afraid something will happen to you."

"Yes. Sister, don't worry, I won't let you worry next time."

Chu Luoyun replied respectfully, and Mu Xirao didn't make things difficult for her, and picked out the most beautiful pieces of material on several horses, and handed them to Chu Luoyun.

After Chu Luoyun got the materials, he withdrew gratefully.

Looking at Chu Luoyun's back, she couldn't help thinking even more, why did she lie to her?And why go to the yard that has long been abandoned!

She decided to go to the study to have a look, to find out what was the origin of that yard?What does it have to do with Chu Luoyun?
She stepped into the study room that she hadn't been in for a long time. Some of the utensils in this study room still retained the appearance of Prince Rui when he was a child. This was the study room that Prince Rui had arranged when he was ten years old, and it already had a generally exquisite style.

Ever since he went crazy overnight, this study has been abandoned here.

The only difference is that it has become clean. The servants of Prince Rui's mansion have always been lazy. This study has been rarely cleaned since Prince Rui became insane. There are many confidential documents, which may be useful next time, but this time they will come in handy.

All the ledgers, Mu Xirao, were placed on the sandalwood table.Account books for old debts like this should be locked in the carved wooden cabinet in the back room.

She walked to the inner room, where there was a beauty screen in front of the carved wooden cabinet.

The lightly swept crescent eyebrows are like willow branches casually sprinkled with spring colors.Dressed in green and green sleeves, she looks like a fair lady on the shore of the Book of Songs.The flower bushes under the skirt are full of flowers, competing for beauty in clusters.But they were all killed by the women on the painting.

This woman, her appearance, her smile, seems to have been seen somewhere?

Mu Xirao thought for a moment, then went to the inner room and took out the ledger from the cabinet.When she turned around, her foot tripped over the screen seat, and she let out an exclamation, it was very painful.

This screen obviously looks like pear blossom wood, but the base is so heavy, could it be that there is something strange about it?Mu Xirao had an idea, knocked on the base, and found that the echo inside was different.

She made up her mind, put the ledger on the table next to her, and carefully looked at the screen.

There was a wind blowing, blowing the books on the table and flipping them with the wind.She suddenly discovered that on the screen, the sleeves of the women's long skirts were not swaying in the direction of the wind in the painting.It's the other way around.Because of the direction the wind is blowing, the woman's long skirt happens to be a square corner on the screen.She couldn't see any marks, so she rubbed her hands carefully.

She felt it, it was like a round gem.This round gem, dark in color, almost blends with the screen and is completely embedded in it.You can't tell the difference without feeling.

What a screen, who dares to act as an organ in Prince Rui's residence right under her nose!

This screen, if she remembers correctly, has been there since the day she got married, when she tidied up the courtyard and took stock of her belongings.

This is the secret door that the ten-year-old Prince Rui made for himself?Or is it the concubine's back move?

Mu Xirao decided that she wanted to see what it was?Now anyone and anything can get in the way of Prince Rui's mansion, Chu Luoyun just got out of the mansion for no reason today, and when he comes back today, there is another organ in the mansion for unknown reasons?

She pressed it lightly, and the door of the inner cabinet was gently moved away, revealing a secret door with a pair of bronze jade nose rings on the secret door.The green is covered with rust. This secret door has been built for a long time.She knocked lightly, and the door opened.She walked in lightly, and found that there was a long corridor with four walls inside.The ground is covered with bluestone steps, and the fire pillars on the four walls are gathered by several luminous pearls for continuous lighting day and night.

Emerald cloud patterns are carved on the four walls.

This handwriting is really rich, the wine and meat of the wealthy family stinks, and the road is frozen to death, this sentence is definitely true.

She was still a little resentful and dissatisfied. At that time, she worked so hard to make the Chinese herbal mask because she hoped to bring more money to Prince Rui's residence.He also worked hard to reduce the number of people to farm, and as a result, there is such a luxurious bluestone road in his mansion.Picking out a random one is enough for the common people outside to enjoy for a lifetime.

She continued to walk in to see if there were a lot of gold and silver treasures buried at the end of the corridor. Could it be that the noble concubine used it for rebellion in order to support King Ling to ascend to the throne in the future?But what would Xiu do in Prince Rui's residence if he was used for rebellion?Could it be that if the rebellion fails, they still want to blame Prince Rui?
In an instant, all thoughts flooded into Mu Xirao's mind, she forced herself to be calm, and cleared away all these miscellaneous thoughts.

As she walked step by step, she suddenly felt that to be a crisp and sharp nobleman in ancient times, knowledge of criminal investigation and knowledge of Chinese herbal medicine were essential.

One is used to prevent being killed, and the other is used to find out who wants to mutilate oneself?

She accidentally saw a few shallow footprints on the Qingshi Yong.Ordinarily speaking, no matter who it is, no matter what kind of shoe prints, such a good stone will not leave footprints.Some time ago, there was a sudden heavy rain for a few days, and the water vapor must have subsided and flooded here.It is God's will that the footprints will appear on the fine bluestone, let her Mu Xiluo see these!

She walked forward along these footprints.

Whoever this is?No matter what ghosts and monsters are ahead?It will end with her!
