Chapter 58 Superficial cooperation (6)

Fu Guan looked at Lou Xiyue quietly, and said: "Then according to Madam's high opinion, what should I do." He was unmoved on the surface, with the meaning of "I really want to hear what nonsense you are talking about".

Lou Xiyue said: "Two major events happened in the capital today. One is the assassination case of Huayueyan, and the other is the murder case of Mr. Qiu's entourage in the Fragrant Tea House."

She analyzed: "My lord just left Princess Anning's mansion when something happened at the Fragrant Tea Hall. The two cases involved the Fragrant Tea Hall at the same time. It's hard to say that there is no connection between the two.

"In addition, the case of the Huayueyan assassin that the prince wants to investigate is also related to me. Although it is not yet clear whether their assassination is aimed at me or the prince, I believe that the truth behind it is If one plan fails, another plan must be used."

Fu Guandao: "You can see clearly. According to what you mean, as long as you are in the palace for one day, they will find another opportunity to attack you. And you use yourself as bait to lure them to do it, and then let me come to attack you." Recruit the oriole in the back?"

Lou Xiyue was not that stupid, she obediently acted as a bait: "My lord is joking. I'm a weak girl, it's too risky to be a bait. What I want to say is——

"Assassins will not show up in Princess Anning's mansion for no reason. Even though Princess Anning doesn't know about it, it's hard to tell the people under her command."

Lou Xiyue said: "I can use the identity of Princess Xuanping to enter the Princess Mansion and secretly investigate the news, maybe I can get some useful clues. Wang Ye, what do you think?"

On the way back to the palace, she carefully sorted out the ins and outs of the Huayue Banquet.

First of all, judging from Princess Anning's reaction today, she is likely to be ignorant of the assassination; secondly, the Flower Moon Banquet is a banquet held by the noble ladies in the capital, so the list of the banquet is only hosted by Princess Anning and Yan Ruyu Just known.

The assassin knew that Princess Xuanping participated in the Huayue Banquet, which led to the subsequent assassination.

Even though Princess An Ning and Yan Ruyu didn't know the truth, the one who arranged for the assassin to enter the Princess Mansion must be the servants of the Princess Mansion and Yan's family.

As long as the investigation continues in these two directions, there must be results.

Hearing this, Fu Guan did not directly reject Lou Xiyue, but said: "Since this is the case, you can check it if you want. If you have any problems during the period, you can ask Xuan Yi to help solve it."

Lou Xiyue: "In that case, the prince and I have reached a cooperation?"

"Forget it." Fu Guan said: "As long as you can really find clues to the real murderer."

"Yes. Then it's a deal." After finishing speaking, Lou Xiyue stood up and said with a slight smile, "It's getting late, I won't bother the lord, so I'll take my leave."

Xuan Miao watched Lou Xiyue leave, then turned around and opened the door: "Master, do you just let her go?"

Fu Guan raised his eyes: "She is a princess, if she wants to leave, this king can still stop her."

"But if the prince really cooperates with her, if he betrays her in the future, then..."

Fu Guan: "She has no relatives and no reason in the capital. Even if she betrays Prince Xuanping's mansion in the future, what kind of disturbance will she cause? Besides, according to her character, if she really wants to investigate something, if we obstruct it in every possible way, she will definitely do something. It's a hundred times more serious than breaking into a tea shop alone.

"Rather than that, it's better to do what she wants. At least we can keep track of her whereabouts at all times, and save us from running around like headless chickens."

Xuan Miao: "But the concubine is a woman after all, let her investigate these things, will it be..."

"If she wants to investigate, let her do it." Fu Guan said: "If she is really capable and finds out the real culprit, then the king will praise her; if she can't find out, then it doesn't matter. Keep a close eye on her anyway. That's it."

As he said that, he changed his voice: "There is one more thing, I want you to track down the origin of the new princess, so hurry up and do it."

Xuan Miao lowered her head: "Yes, this subordinate understands."

 Ah, the condition is finally better today, although I still feel a little uncomfortable.The first two days seemed to have experienced all-round boulders in the chest, sore limbs, especially the back.I don't even know how I finished writing a thousand words two days ago, probably relying on ideas... I will check and check on the weekend to see if there is anything that is not smooth before I correct it.
