Xia Lishuang, wearing a round-collar robe and a red gold-woven four-claw dragon suit, once again accepted the seal belonging to Prince Yu.
The prince beside him turned green.
The emperor also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Lao Qi is still under suspicion,...it is not bad to be able to check and balance the prince.
"Lao Wu, how's it going at Ci'an Temple?"
"Replying to my father, the renovation of Ci'an Temple has been completed, and now the temple has restarted its incense service!"
Xia Liyuan had a bit of weakness on his face. If it weren't for the imperial uniform he was wearing, he would have looked more like a frail scholar.
The emperor's brows finally relaxed, "Lao Wu did a good job this time! Reward!"
"My son, I dare not take credit!"
Xia Liyuan quickly saluted.
Throughout the morning, the emperor emphatically praised King Qingyun and King Yu. As for the prince, he did not even give him a glance from the beginning to the end.
The adults in the court exchanged glances with each other, but did not dare to say a word. The faces of the prince's party were even more ugly.
But for Xia Lishuang, this was both the emperor's recognition and encouragement.
In Prince Yu's palace, Wen Ranran was holding a gold-plated edict conferring the title of prince, almost drooling with joy.
Seeing this, Xia Lishuang pinched the other person's cheek in a funny way.
"Are you so happy that I have been crowned prince again?"
Wen Ranran's eyes were bright, "Of course!"
From a county prince to a prince, it seems that only one word has changed, but in reality, the food and salary have doubled.
Prince Yu's Mansion finally stood up and sang, no longer having to live a hard life.
"Then...when do you plan to become Princess Yu?"
Xia Lishuang hugged Wen Ranran's waist from behind and whispered.
Wen Ranran was slightly stunned and said nothing, but the base of her ears slowly turned red.
"Humph, I said before that I wanted to be your princess, but you still thought I was too high to reach it... Now, I have to think about it carefully!"
Wen Ranran raised her nose and snorted softly.
Xia Lishuang: "..."
Abusing my wife feels good for a while, chasing my wife to the crematorium.
…
Two days have passed since the Moat Corpse case, but there is still no other progress.
Xia Lishuang and Wen Ranran looked at the six black stones in front of them and sighed together.
The most deceiving part about the corpse of the Yan State envoy is that I know it was the prince who did it, but there is no evidence...
Wen Ranran picked up a black stone and played with it.
That day, I found only six black stones in the purse around the prince's waist, and one was still missing.
There was a knock on the door, and Qian Yu came to report in a neat outfit.
"My lord! It's been found! Some time ago, some villagers on the Qianjiang River outside the city said they saw ghosts nearby several times. They said there was a female ghost in red who specialized in sucking human essence and blood. People nearby were frightened.
"
Woman in red?
"It is said that the female ghost in red... appears at night. From a distance, it looks like a piece of clothing floating..."
Xia Lishuang raised her eyebrows, looked at Wen Ranran, and finally identified the murderer.
"Untie the red?!"
The people under the prince still like to wear red clothes. It is too dark to see people at night, so they can only wear red clothes.
With her goal in hand, Xia Lishuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hurry and invite the envoy from Yan!"
Qian Yu responded and left.
Not long after, someone came to report that an envoy from the State of Yan had arrived.
The envoy from the Yan Kingdom was named Chatu. He was over forty years old, dressed in mink fur, and his dark and thin face showed obvious regional characteristics.
As soon as he arrived, he sat down without saying anything.
"Prince Yu has found the murderer?!"
"Wei Zeng, I invited the envoy here today because I want to discuss the acting with the envoy!"
acting?
Wen Ranran didn't know why, what kind of trick did the husband want to do?
