Chu Jiaoli suddenly woke up from her sleep, looking at the black night outside the house, her heart trembled, she got up subconsciously, and looked towards the back door of the Prince's Mansion.

"Are you scared?" Liang Yi's shoulders sank slowly, Bei Gong Teng Xiao took her into his arms with hot palms, reached out to pick up her coat and put it on, took her hands and rubbed them gently, and turned her head Cold voice outside the house, "Presumptuous, who is making noise late at night?"

Jing Yue hurried in from outside the house, lowered her head and cupped her fists and said, "Your Majesty was frightened, it was Luo Cairen who fled in the middle of the night, luckily the guards arrived in time."

Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli frowned complicatedly, she had already ordered Luo Bai to escape smoothly, and the backyard was all her people, how could it be...

Putting on her clothes in a hurry, she got up and got off the couch.

"Li'er, it's cold and rainy at night, so wear more." Beigong Tengxiao didn't ask any more questions, picked up the cloak and followed her out.

As soon as they reached the back door, they could smell the rain mixed with the pungent smell of blood. Chu Jiaoli pursed her lips and quickened her pace, and saw the bright red bloody handprints on Luo Bai's face that was so pale that it was wet by the rain. , and in her arms, the man who was pierced by a sword was no longer alive.

Chu Jiaoli's eyes were full of astonishment, and she muttered with her lips and teeth: "How could it be... who is it..."

Just as she was thinking about it, a woman beside her ran over with her skirt in her hand, and said with a look of graciousness: "Your Highness, this temptress dared to run away in the middle of the night. Fortunately, my concubine was alert and realized that she was sneaky today and fell asleep late at night. This is the evidence that she escaped with her lover!"

Chu Jiaoli looked sideways, and the woman who asked for credit was Li Qingyuan, who was usually reticent.

Chu Jiaoli looked again at Luo Bai who was sitting slumped on the ground in a panic. The bloody handprint on his face was the last tenderness that man gave her, and it was being wiped away and faded by the rain at this moment.

"Brother...Brother..." Luo Bai said in a hoarse voice, the tears overflowing from his eyes mixed with the rain.

Jing Ling on the side reminded Beigong Tengxiao: "Your Highness, just now Luo Cairen said that the man and Luo Cairen are half-brothers, not lovers."

Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice, "Is it brother or lover?"

Chu Jiaoli frowned slightly invisibly, and she knew in her heart that she said it was her brother, but she was just trying to survive.

Li Qingyuan bit her lips, frowned resolutely and said: "Your Highness, Luo Cairen is the only daughter of General Luo, so how can she have an older brother? The concubine saw with her own eyes that the two behaved intimately, so they must be lovers!"

"Your Highness, we found it." Jing Yue rushed over and reported, "General Luo did have an illegitimate son who was about the same age as this man."

Hearing this, Li Qingyuan's heart skipped a beat, and subconsciously wanted to take a step back, but she saw Bei Gong Teng Xiao's sharp gaze glaring at her.

"Slap!" Beigong Tengxiao raised his hand and slapped Li Qingyuan on the face.

Li Qingyuan hurriedly knelt down, cried and begged for mercy: "I know my mistake! Don't dare to talk nonsense anymore! Please calm down, Your Highness! Please calm down, Your Highness!"

Beigong Tengxiao didn't look at her again, but looked at Luo Bai in front of him.

Luo Bai never saluted Beigong Tengxiao from the beginning to the end, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with her, but just repeated "Brother" repeatedly, his eyes were red, and his black pupils revealed unconcealable despair .

Seeing that Beigong Tengxiao was about to slap Luo Bai, Chu Jiaoli said, "Luo Cairen, if you marry into our prince's mansion, if your elder brother dies in the mansion, we will surely have a good burial. From now on, don't move." What a crooked mind, stay in the prince's mansion peacefully, don't be an example."
