Geng Shulou stopped and looked at Geng Xingbing intently.

Geng Xingbing also looked back at him, but neither brother nor sister spoke.

"Fourth sister, I originally wanted to leave a way out for you. If King Ping loses power in the future, I will be your retreat. But now it seems that I have thought too much. Okay, from now on, our destiny will be We will be completely tied together. If the boat capsizes, we will both die. Now you can tell your secret."

Geng Xingbing came to see Geng Shulou today, and she never thought of telling Geng Shulou everything. After all, she might have to rely on the help of her good second brother for her promise to Prince Ping.

But she didn't expect that she still underestimated Geng Shulou's ability. In such a short period of time, he was not able to participate in the autumn examination, and he was so busy after his father's death that he still had the energy to take time out from the complicated affairs to think and think. After researching the news on the day Geng Cheng died, she was so sure that she had tampered with it.

But so what if he guessed correctly, he didn't tell who reported the message to Zhang, which meant that he didn't know who the maid was.

So she won't admit it.

As for his identity, Geng Xingbing suddenly changed his mind. This should not come from his own mouth.

Thinking like this, she stood up.

"Second brother, I came here today just to see you. I was worried that you were overworked and injured your body. I didn't expect you to say so many words that I couldn't understand. You said I had some secrets, and you even deducted a I don't know why you have these thoughts. As for His Highness, he has never told me that he wants to recruit you to be his staff. If you want to go, my second brother can go. No. If you are willing to wait until I come in, I will try my best to persuade His Highness. Second brother only needs to tell me before the day after tomorrow."

Geng Xingbing said, tears welling up in his eyelashes, "Second brother, in addition to my mother, I also have my eldest sister who is thousands of miles away. You are the person I am closest to. We have been relatives for more than ten years. I hope that we will always be together in the future." They will be close relatives.”

Beloved?

Geng Shulou squinted his eyes, and an incredible idea suddenly came to his mind. He himself was shocked by this idea.

Geng Xingbing's heart trembled. She knew her brother and knew that he was very smart, but she didn't expect that he was so sharp and could detect something from just a simple sentence.

She immediately regretted her talk, but she remained calm on her face and said goodbye calmly.

"The girl didn't say anything?" Chu Yin asked on the way.

Geng Xingbing looked forward and said in a calm tone, "Wouldn't it be better to wait for him to surrender to His Highness and let Your Highness tell him personally?"

Chu Yin didn't know what was good about it, but it was a trivial matter. His Highness only took a fancy to Geng Shulou's mind and talent, Geng Xingbing's beauty and the benefits she promised. As for the rest, I believe His Highness wouldn't mind too much. Say a few words.

A few days later, Tao's mother was buried, and Geng Xingshuang wished Yandu a farewell.

A few days after Tao's mother was buried, at the end of September, news finally came from the Yamen.

After an autopsy and interviews by government officials, it was determined that Tao Mu had been given a chronic poison. The poison was very common and was not colorless and odorless, but it was difficult to mix it with strong-smelling medicine. Make people aware.

"It's the medicine my mother took five days before she died. The Yamen went to investigate Shou'antang. They said that after these days of investigation, it had nothing to do with the shopkeeper or doctors of Shou'antang. It was the drug boy who took the medicine. He must have been bribed by someone, but the medicine boy quit his job two days before my mother's death. The Yamen searched for him for more than ten days, but no trace of him was found, so he might have left Ningdu."

When Tao Yuyu told Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan this, his voice was trembling with anger. After he finished speaking, his whole body was shaking like a leaf falling in the wind. "It must be her, it must be her, how could she...how dare..."

Yes, how could this be done? If Geng Xingbing was sure that he was not a flesh and blood member of the Tao family, then he would have nothing to do with the Tao family. Why would he silence someone who had no grievances or enmity?

If she was sure that she was the daughter of the Tao family, then Tao's mother was her biological mother. How could she dare to kill her mother?
But that's what happened. Geng Xingshuang expected it, but it was also unexpected.

She saw the crazy and selfish part of Geng Xingbing, but she hoped it wasn't to that extent.

"Has Geng Xingbing already entered Prince Ping's Mansion?" Zhu Yan asked.

Geng Xingshuang nodded, "Three days after my second uncle was buried, His Highness Prince Ping took him over."

A small sedan, two nannies, two maids, four young men holding the sedan, plus the four maids that Geng Xingbing brought as dowry, two bedrooms, and 64 dowries that Geng Xun and Yao helped to come up with. , looks majestic, but because there is no groom and the color is not so red, it looks a bit shabby and nondescript.

"What about this case..." Geng Xingshuang asked.

Tao Yuyu shook his head, "The Yamen said they would continue to investigate, but I heard their voices and knew that the escaped drug boy should not be found."

Sure enough, in the following days, the Tao family went to the yamen several times, and in the end they only received a small amount of consolation compensation from Shou'an Tang. There was still no trace of the escaped drug boy, even though the yamen painted a picture and posted a picture to capture him.

The Tao family was angry and helpless. They knew who the murderer was, but they watched helplessly as the murderer became a member of Prince Ping's palace without any evidence or strength to avenge his wife (mother).

When Tao Rong learned that his wife was really killed, he tried to go to the Yamen to tell them that Geng Xingbing might be the murderer. However, when the Yamen people heard that the matter was related to Prince Ping's Mansion, Although he didn't hit Tao Rong, he still kicked Tao Rong out and told him that if he dared to bite His Highness Prince Ping again, it would be more than just a slap in the face.

Tao Rong returned home defeated.

Even Zhu Yan couldn't do anything about this matter. She had once suspected that Tao Yuyu was her second aunt's daughter, but Zhu Ni was in the house, so she had no evidence. Besides, Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu were not in the house, so this matter It's really hard to handle.

As the autumn wind gradually ends and the chilly north wind appears, the autumn list of Sheng Ning's 14th year is released.

On the day when the results were released, Geng Shuhuai rushed back from Licai Academy. Yes, Yang Qingmo no longer had to go to Licai Academy, but Geng Shuhuai still had to go. The martial arts exam was not just about martial arts. Geng Shuhuai also needed to learn something. There are still many. If he doesn't study hard, he may be failed at the first level in the martial arts competition next year.

"Second brother, it's still early for the results to be released. Why do we have to come so early? It's already very cold in the morning."

Geng Xingshuang was wrapped in a cloak, and she didn't understand what kind of style her second brother was smoking.

"Sixth sister, I know why the second brother is leaving so early?" Geng Xingchen also joined in the fun and wanted to go to the list with them.

"Sister Chen, I also know why you want to go with me this time?" Geng Shuhuai smiled mischievously.
