Zhao Xiaole was stunned and asked: "How do you know that I have discovered the clue? Is there something written on my face?"
"That's not true. You stood in front of the corpse for a long time. If you didn't find anything, why did you stand for so long?" Princess Loulan explained.
"That's true. I have indeed discovered something." Zhao Xiaole nodded, "We just got the round pot and then we were attacked. I'm afraid it's not a coincidence!"
"You said before that the round pot was a clue that the criminal put it in deliberately. Since it was put in deliberately, we should be given time to verify it. There is no reason to attack us!" Princess Loulan said in confusion.
"Your Highness is indeed smart, but why don't you think about it the other way around?" Zhao Xiaole speculated: "The criminal thought that I didn't know that the round pot was false evidence, and we happened to find it, so he wanted to seize the opportunity through another attack.
Confirm this evidence!"
"So that's the case, it's possible!" Princess Loulan was stunned, and then she became confused, "Then you already have a theory about the murderer?"
"This issue cannot be determined yet. The murderer pointed by the round pot is fake, but the person who set up this situation must be the real murderer. Therefore, we can only continue to investigate according to the murderer's design. There is no other way!"
"Check who?"
"Prince Qianguo!"
"Why him?"
"Because the craftsmanship on that round pot is the style of the Qian Kingdom."
Princess Loulan took the round pot and looked at it carefully, "I think it's better to go sooner rather than later. Let's go now!"
Zhao Xiaole yawned, "No, I will invite you and Sining to Juxian Tower for dinner tonight. It won't be too late to go there tomorrow."
"Isn't the Marquis worried?" Princess Loulan said speechlessly, "What if someone else takes the lead?"
"Do you know why Manying gave this thing to me?" Zhao Xiaole said casually.
Princess Loulan didn't answer.
Zhao Xiaole continued: "Because he used me as a shield and hoped that I would wade in front."
"Let me tell you this!" Zhao Xiaole took the round pot, which still had a faint residual warmth. "If you find a round pot, someone will ambush you halfway. If you find any important clues, there might be a library explosion.
!”
"Are you doubting Liu Boxin?" Princess Loulan caught the hint in his words.
"I didn't say that!" Zhao Xiaole shook his head, continued to lean against the car wall, closed his eyes and rested.
Zhao Xiaole's words seemed to have a meaning, and Princess Loulan couldn't help but become suspicious.
Will Liu Boxin be the murderer behind this?
Juxian Tower arrived soon.
Because they had already reserved a private room, Zhao Xiaole and Princess Loulan went directly to the top floor, the Fulu Room.
The inside is very spacious. After opening the windows, you can look out at the Ruyi Lake. Although at night, you can't see much scenery.
But under the light of a few lights, the sparkling lake surface can be vaguely seen.
Zhao Xiaole and Princess Loulan hadn't sat there for long before the private room door was pushed open and Qin Sining ran in with an anxious look on his face.
"Xiao Le, are you okay?"
Zhao Xiaole felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "I'm fine, it's just a wave of assassins. Fortunately, Her Royal Highness's guards are here and they beat them away in a few strokes."
Qin Sining breathed a sigh of relief and said to Princess Loulan, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Princess Loulan just nodded, "It doesn't matter."
Qin Sining looked at Zhao Xiaole complainingly, "You are serious, you just go out to investigate the case yourself, and you also involve Her Highness the Princess. If something happens to Her Highness, even your ten heads will not be able to bear the responsibility."
Princess Loulan explained: "It was my idea to come out to investigate the case. The Marquis originally planned to take me sightseeing, so I don't blame him!"
Hearing this, Qin Sining looked at Zhao Xiaole with a sneer on his face.
Zhao Xiaole: "..."
This woman is indeed a disaster, and with her ability to sow dissension, I really feel inferior to her.
"Ahem...!" Zhao Xiaole coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment, "What about that? I'm tired after a long day of work, so hurry up and let someone serve the food!"
Qin Sining didn't say anything more and sat down with a sullen face.
Princess Loulan was full of sarcasm, looking like she was watching a good show.
The food came quickly.
Qin Sining picked up the chopsticks and took the initiative to pick up a piece of fish for Zhao Xiaole, "Master Hou, you have been working very hard. Eat more to replenish your body!"
When talking about hard work, she deliberately lengthened the syllables.
Zhao Xiaole: "..."
This sour taste is almost like stewing a pot of pickled fish.
In the awkward atmosphere, the three of them sat together and ate.
This time, Zhao Xiaole finally saw how Princess Loulan ate. She first put the vegetables on the plate, then lifted the veil and ate little by little.
Because the veil was lifted just facing Zhao Xiaole, he still couldn't see Princess Loulan's face.
After drinking for a while, Zhao Xiaole took the opportunity to ask: "Your Highness, may I ask you what your name should be?"
In fact, he had already known it through the West Factory information, but it was just an excuse to ask.
Hearing this, Qin Sining also looked at Princess Loulan curiously.
Princess Loulan put down her wine glass and said softly: "Xuanyi."
"This name is really outstanding!"
Zhao Xiaole couldn't help but praise.
Qin Sining immediately rolled her eyes at him, "Come on, I think it's better not to go out with His Highness tomorrow!"
"Why is this?" Princess Loulan looked puzzled.
Qin Sining sighed, "I received news before I came that except for you, most of the other candidates were also ambushed!"
Looking at Zhao Xiaole with a concerned face, Qin Sining felt warm in his heart, "I am in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and I was not ambushed!"
"In addition, Liu Boxin, who is still living in the prime minister's residence, was not ambushed. Everyone else encountered assassins to some extent!"
Princess Loulan heard this and looked at Zhao Xiaole.
Zhao Xiaole rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then said, "Sining, did you find any clues at the Chamber of Commerce today?"
Qin Sining shook his head, "No, what about you?"
Princess Loulan clapped her hands, and a guard brought the round pot in, showed it to Qin Sining and said:
"This is the clue we found today. According to Mr. Hou's analysis, the craftsmanship above is from Qianguo craftsmen!"
After hearing the whole story, Qin Sining asked: "Do you suspect that Prince Qian is the murderer?"
Princess Loulan glanced at Zhao Xiaole, "No, the Marquis suspects that Prince Qian was framed! The assassin is the real murderer!"
"However, everyone was ambushed. If you look at it this way, the person behind it is Liu Boxin, but why would he do such a thing? Moreover, Liu Boxin is just a bachelor with no power, how could he kidnap him?
Minister of the Ministry of Industry?"
Qin Sining expressed his doubts.
The two women couldn't think of an answer and could only look at Zhao Xiaole.
Zhao Xiaole stopped thinking and said: "This matter is complicated and confusing, so don't make any assumptions yet. Maybe we can find clues when we meet Prince Qian and Liu Boxin tomorrow!"
