Chapter 184 The prince is really not an ordinary person
As soon as the words fell, a smile appeared on Xiao Yu's face. Even though she didn't say anything, both Lu Shengming and He Li understood what she meant.

Silence speaks louder than words, and everything is said without words.

Lu Shengming pondered for a moment, then clapped his hands and sighed in admiration: "Your Majesty's thoughtful thoughts are beyond the reach of lower officials."

He Li nodded appreciatively: "It's the same for lower officials, so the prince just asked casually, no matter whether there is a mole or not, the few words the prince chatted at that time disturbed Zhao Lu's thoughts, and he was caught off guard by this sudden question. , will definitely refute, but no matter what he says, it can be proved that what he said later is adulterated, and it is very likely that this is not the first time he and the beggar have met."

"Hiss—then the water here is deep, why did the prince let him go?"

"It is because of the depth of the water that we cannot act rashly."

Xiao Yu stood up, "Yesterday I rescued someone casually, and learned some news about the beggar from that person, maybe you can check along this line."

Hearing this, Lu Shengming couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up and walked behind Xiao Yu: "My lord, please advise!"

"The beggar was not originally a beggar, but a man dressed as a scholar. Let's say he is a scholar. He met a lady who was robbed of his purse in Kyoto, and gave her all the money he had, saying that he would not need it anymore. .”

"It's useless? What's that called?"

He Li frowned, "Why does it sound so unlucky?"

"Well, I also think this remark has a deep meaning. At that time, the scholar left in a hurry. Madam didn't have time to ask his name, but she said that he was very upright and bookish. I thought that such a kind person would not make such a mistake in the street. The act of stealing money, of course, does not rule out that people are forced to arouse their evil side, but the gap between him and the front is so big, it is very suspicious."

"It's really suspicious that a good scholar has turned into a sloppy beggar."

"So the top priority for the two adults is to find out the identity of this person first. If he is from other places, there must not be many people who have seen him. You can first find the local beggars to identify him. They are running around, and some companions join them. It must be clearer than us. There are also soldiers guarding the city, you can show them the portraits, and the scholar who is less than [-] years old and has a handsome face must be quite easy to recognize."

Xiao Yu said while thinking: "There are also various inns, check the check-in records, and you will definitely be able to find clues. You should be better than me in this area, so I will leave it to you, and the speed will be faster. As for Zhao Lu, I will Get someone to watch."

"Yes, I will do it now, sir."

Lu Shengming and He Li were enlightened by Xiao Yu's advice, and immediately dispatched people to investigate the identity of the beggar.

Xiao Yu walked out of the courtroom, looked at Han Yi who was standing guard at the door, "Go and ask someone to keep an eye on Zhao Lu, he is far from being as simple as he looks."

"Why did the prince say such a thing?"

"He came prepared, the previous words were obviously well thought out, if a person killed someone by accident, even if he knew it was not his fault, he would not be so calm, as if nothing had happened, I have a hunch , he knew the beggar."

Xiao Yu stood with his hands behind his back, feeling more and more complicated and confusing about the case.

Han Yi was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Isn't he Hui Yuan? Seeing that he speaks clearly, it doesn't seem difficult to understand if he is calm."

Xiao Yu was startled, and something flashed through his mind.

She suddenly pressed Han Yi's shoulder: "You reminded me."

Han Yi: "Huh?"

"You ask the person looking for the driver to check the files of last year's general examination... No, starting from the township examination, I want to know all the results of Zhao Lu, as well as his performance in the academy, Huiyuan—" Xiao Yu lightly With a laugh: "It's a human or a ghost, let's take a good look at it."

"Yes, this subordinate obeys."

……

Xiao Yu was still thinking about this when she returned to the palace, she was so distracted during the meal that she almost fed the food to her chin, when Jun Rong saw it, she stretched out her hand and held her down: "Teacher, what are you thinking about so preoccupied? "

"Ah, it's nothing, I'm still thinking about the beggar in the alley."

Jun Rong put down his chopsticks and took a sip of soup, "Aren't you checking the identity of the beggar now? It will be easier when his identity is found out."

"Well, that's true." Xiao Yu put down his chopsticks after eating the last mouthful, "By the way, how is your Majesty practicing boxing with General Feng during this time?"

Jun Rong raised his arm with a smile: "It's much stronger, don't you believe that Taifu will try it with me?"

"How to try?"

Jun Rong waved at Ting Tzu's tricks: "Remove these."

"Yes."

The maids stepped forward to clean up the mess, Jun Rong got up and said to Xiao Yu, "Teacher, come and sit here."

Xiao Yu didn't know why and followed Jun Rong to sit on the soft couch. Jun Rong moved the little table to the middle, rolled up his sleeves, and put his arms on it, "Come on, let's wrestle your wrists."

Xiao Yu: "..."

She looked at Jun Rong who was eager to try, dumbfounded: "Break your wrist..."

"Try it, Taifu. Come on, my strength is really much stronger than before."

Seeing his bright eyes, Xiao Yu couldn't bear to touch his face, so she nodded, "All right, let's compare."

She rolled up her sleeves, revealing a small section of her wrist.

The two people's wrists are put together, and they don't know if they don't compare, but when they compare, it's black and white.

Junrong is not dark among men, even his face is like a crown jade, extremely handsome, but Xiao Yubai is too white, put together, it seems that his complexion is a bit dull.

"Could it be that Tai Fu grew up in a milk jar, how did he become so tender?"

Xiao Yu smiled, "It's natural, there's no way."

Junrong: "..."

As soon as he took hold of Xiao Yu's hand, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, not only did he look at Bai Nen, but his hands were also slippery and cold.

"Are you ready?"

Jun Rong asked, Xiao Yu nodded, and the next second a strong force came, Xiao Yu almost didn't hold back and was pressed down, she hurriedly exerted force, and the two secretly competed, Jun Rong wanted to prove himself, he really sucked I used all my strength.

His knuckles were so hard that they turned slightly white, his lips were tightly pressed, and his face was slightly red. Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and persisted for a while, but he had no strength at all, and was soon held and pressed by Xiao Yu on the small table.

"I lost."

She let out a breath and looked at Jun Rong with relief: "It seems that His Majesty has indeed made great progress."

Jun Rong was extremely satisfied, "General Feng said that when I become proficient in boxing, I can start learning archery and knife use."

"Okay, Your Majesty studies hard, and strives to become a generation of emperors with both martial arts and literary skills in the future."

Jun Rong nodded: "It doesn't need to be so powerful."

As long as you can protect Taifu.

He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but said it to himself silently in his heart.

"Since His Majesty's birthday is approaching, and the envoys from Feng Nation and Yun Nation are likely to arrive soon, the murder case should be solved as soon as possible."

Xiao Yu moved his wrist, then changed the subject and asked again: "What gift does Your Majesty want for his birthday?"
