Originally, she wanted to investigate the matter with Lou Huai, but there were too many things to be busy with at the time, and things had to be prioritized, so she and Lou Huai chose the more urgent and important things to deal with.

As soon as it was delayed, the matter was never dealt with.

Now that Xiao Si Yi reminded her, she remembered that this matter still existed.

Xiao Siyi asked Zuo Weiyue carefully how they discovered that Lan Yuexuan was doing something secretive. He learned that the secret whereabouts of Lou Huai and his subordinate Lou Wan were leaked to Lou Heng, causing Lou Huai to be seriously injured.

After that, Xiao Siyi fell into deep thought, seeming to be thinking carefully about who it could be.

During this process, Zuo Weiyue also quickly controlled the flying magic carpet and followed Prince Gong Lou Gaoyi's carriage to the Maple Leaf Forest on the outskirts.

Considering that the city of Eternal Cold is like winter all year round and snows constantly, not many people usually go to the mountains and forests on the outskirts.

So when we arrived at the place, in addition to the red maple leaves mixed with the snow, we saw a very white blanket of snow, with almost no human hair visible.

Lou Gaoyi got off the carriage wearing a big cloak and walked onto the snow-covered road that was already well-trodden with his subordinates leading the way.

As I walked, I sprinkled some withered yellow flowers from my sleeves.

At first, Zuo Weiyue didn't understand what it was. It wasn't until she controlled the flying magic carpet, flew behind them at low altitude and smelled it for a while, and smelled the obvious scent of osmanthus, that she confirmed that the dried flowers sprinkled by Lou Gaoyi were osmanthus.

Of course, Lou Gaoyi, a grown man, would not have this eccentric habit of scattering flowers while walking. The only possibility is that this dried osmanthus flower may be related to Xiao Siyi's dead aunt.

Sure enough, when Lou Gaoyi and his subordinates arrived under a huge maple tree and saw the tombstone with Murong's name engraved on it, he took out a can of osmanthus wine and some osmanthus cakes wrapped in oil paper and placed them neatly in front of the tomb.

The man is only thirty-four years old now. He has a face that is roughly 40% similar to Lou Hanhai's, but his overall temperament looks completely different from Lou Hanhai's.

As an emperor, Lou Hanhai has a calm and authoritative temperament, while Prince Gong, Lou Gaoyi, looks like a more free and easy knight errant.

It's just that the heavy emotions now accumulated in his phoenix eyes suppressed the free and easy temperament without a trace, giving people a sense of heaviness for no reason.

He knelt down, took out the fire sticks he brought, lit the incense branches, inserted them into the incense altar in front of her tombstone, and said in a soft voice: "Rong'er, I'm here to see you. I'm sorry for coming so late."

When the man said these words with a lingering look, he reached out and touched the tombstone in front of him, as if he had touched Murong's face through the tombstone.

This kind of look was not unfamiliar to Zuo Weiyue, because the future Lou Huai would often look at her like this.

Seeing this, she has basically determined that Prince Gong Lou Gaoyi and Murong had an unusual relationship before, but she is still not sure what the relationship is.

After all, Murong is Lou Hanhai's concubine, and she is a relatively favored noble concubine. Lou Gaoyi, as Lou Hanhai's younger brother, got together with his concubine. It would be impossible to say that there were no hidden secrets and twists and turns in the process.

Fortunately, her doubts did not last long and were soon answered by Lou Gaoyi's continued mumbling.

"Those who have harmed you, one day I will personally hold their heads and come over to apologize to you, so that you will not be resentful and refuse to cross the Naihe Bridge."

"But Rong'er, do you know how uncomfortable it is for you to leave me alone in this world? If you and I were braver back then, maybe the outcome would not have been the worst. You should have been my princess."

When Xiao Siyi heard what Lou Gaoyi said, his frown never calmed down.

Just because when Murong entered the palace, Xiao Siyi clearly remembered that his biological mother told him that Murong had always longed for entering the palace. If Murong didn't like Lou Hanhai, given her status as the legitimate daughter of the Minister of War,

, who was completely qualified to resist the decree and marry Lou Gaoyi instead.

Zuo Weiyue was also a little confused when she heard it, but unfortunately, Lou Gaoyi said nothing after finishing the long words before, and just helped Murong clean the maple leaves and snow that fell on the tombstone with a gentle expression.

By the time everything was settled, it was already past five in the afternoon.

Prince Gong got on the carriage back to the Hot Spring Villa and found little Lou Heng who was still lying on the couch to rest and cough.

Xiao Lou Heng's condition was worse than what Zuo Weiyue had seen before. His face was a little red from the heat, and his eyes were a little confused.

"Uncle Emperor, okay, nephew, cough." Little Lou Heng wanted to lift the quilt and lie down, but because his health was so bad, he couldn't even speak completely, let alone stand up.

Seeing that he was about to fall off the bed, Lou Gaoyi stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Lou Heng's arm, gave his subordinate a look, and asked him to step aside first. Then he sat down by the bed, took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, and poured a pill for him: "

This is a pill for reducing fever, you should be able to feel better after taking it."

Little Lou Heng took the pills, but was not in a hurry to take them. Instead, he lowered his eyelashes and said, "Thank you, uncle. I just don't know why you came here today."

Seeing that Xiao Lou Heng was so vigilant, Lou Gaoyi was not annoyed at all. After retracting his gaze from Xiao Lou Heng's face, he looked at the room with relatively simple furnishings, and replied in an awkward tone, "Xiao Lou Heng"

Heng, your current situation doesn't look good, you must have thought about changing your life, right?"

The man's tone was still gentle, but the look in his phoenix eyes was very oppressive.

Xiao Lou Heng was shrouded in this sense of oppression, and after a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he finally nodded: "Of course I have thought about it, but in my current situation, it is not easy to realize this wish.

"

"Really?" When Lou Gaoyi said this, he suddenly stood up and looked down at the weak-looking little boy, "Aren't you too timid and worried too much?"

The man took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the sweat from Xiao Lou Heng's forehead before continuing:

"I already know something about your ability and character. I also know that you took the lives of the several servants you sent here before. If you want, I can help you achieve what you want, but the premise is

, when you are successful, you need to help me do three things."

Little Lou Heng didn't seem to expect that Lou Gaoyi would find out his details so clearly. After his pupils shrank, he clenched his fists and fell into silence.

After a long time, he loosened his fist, looked at Lou Gaoyi with trembling eyelashes and asked hoarsely: "Uncle, can you first tell me what three things I need to help you do? If you can make your nephew accept it, maybe you can give it a try."

Tsk, the royal family has really been cruel since childhood.
