Chapter 277 How did you die?

King Yan frowned slightly, and said playfully: "This is rare."

Xiao Huai was sweating profusely, and came out of the bath, only to see King Yan sitting behind his usual desk.

He paused for a moment, then straightened his clothes, walked over slowly, and sat opposite him: "Your Majesty, do you have something to order?"

His voice was contemptuous, his eyes were also contemptuous, and this sitting posture made him look very careless.

King Yan crossed his fingers, looked at him and said, "Did you quarrel?"

Xiao Huai paused for a moment, with ridicule in his eyes: "I don't understand what the prince said."

King Yan raised his eyebrows, his face did not change because of his attitude: "It seems that I overestimated you. This girl from the Shen family is not suitable for you."

Xiao Huai looked at him, with a cold light in his half-closed eyes: "Then who does the prince think is suitable for me?"

"Anyone who can make you mess up is not suitable for you." King Yan said, "I don't need a son who will hurt God for women, such a person can't afford King Yan's mansion."

"You don't have to be a cold-blooded and power-hungry person like you to afford it." Xiao Huai said.

"Don't look down on the word power and desire." Yan Wang raised his lips: "If I let you choose now, you can only choose between the title and her, how would you choose?"

Xiao Huai stared at him with condensed eyebrows, with a cold light in his eyes.

"You see, power is so powerful that it can easily make you face problems.

"And the reason why you are in trouble is because you can't let go of this power?"

Yan Wang lowered his eyes and stared at him: "You are not worth messing with yourself for a woman. She will make you lose more than you gain.

"If you have time, learn how to let go, other women will let you know that the so-called love between children is nothing more than that, how stupid it is to hang yourself on a tree.

"Yan Wang's Mansion doesn't need any love, it just needs a son who can keep a clear head in the face of all temptations and entanglements."

Xiao Huaiyang smirked and said: "Since that's the case, why don't you get some women to come back to warm the bed? As far as I know, there are quite a few people who want to recommend themselves as pillow mats!"

King Yan looked at him for a while in the dim light, then stood up with a flick of his sleeves: "I don't want it, it's because I'm already strong enough to not need these troubles, and you are far from me.

"When you are strong enough, you can naturally do whatever you want like me. At that time, no one will be able to influence you."

As soon as the voice fell, there was the sound of the bead curtain rattling behind him.

Xiao Huai was silent for a while, then poured the cold tea into his stomach in one gulp.

He spread his palms to look at the plum-shaped piece, and raised his hand to his forehead.

"Send a letter to Wang Xu, and ask him to pick ten agile fighters from the Shen Falcon camp."

He said.

After breakfast, Shen Xi took Qi Jiu to the place where the murderer was held.

He Lanzhun acted very safely, and the whole group of criminals were locked in a two-entry courtyard in a small alley behind the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion.

When Shen Xi arrived, there were two people standing at the door and squatting down, dressed in ordinary clothes, but their eyes and strong muscles did not look like ordinary people.

When they saw Qi Jiu, they raised their hands to say hello, and then the carriage drove directly into the door. Obviously, these two were sent by He Lanzhun to guard here.

When he got out of the car, there were two more people sitting on the porch, both equally strong.

After passing through the second gate, there were four more standing in the inner courtyard, all of them looked relaxed, but their eyes were sharp and their movements vigorous.

Without saying much, Qi Jiu greeted them and came forward to lead them to the locked room on the east side.

As soon as the door opened, Mi Xiang, who looked embarrassed, appeared in front of her eyes.

Shen Xi only remembered her appearance when she was young, but now the outline is still there.She sat down on the chair Qi Jiu brought and asked her, "Do you know me?"

Mi Xiang nodded apprehensively.

"Don't be afraid, you may not die." Shen Xi said, "Let me ask you a few words first. How did Han Shuhua die? What did Wen Chan tell her before she died?"

Mi Xiang swallowed her saliva and said: "The servant was not in the room when the aunt died. But the servant heard something."

As she spoke, she told what she had heard about the quarrel between Wen Chan and Han Shuhua.

"Later, the servant heard something was wrong in the room, pushed the door and went in, and saw the old lady holding scissors in her hand, and the blade went straight into the aunt's chest."

Xu was a little scared, and her throat rolled again.

Shen Xi didn't move after listening.

Although there are only seven or eight parts of the content, she can spell it completely.

With her witness, it was another great blow to the Han family.It was no wonder that Han Dun was so active in sending people to sue for peace.

"Do you know that Wen Chan killed Zhang Ying back then?" Shen Xi asked again.

Mi Xiang trembled, glanced at her, then quickly lowered her head. "The servant doesn't know. The old lady will never tell the outside world about this kind of thing."

Shen Xi didn't intend to ask anything from her.Then he asked, "How did Han Ruoju die? How is his relationship with Wen Chan?"

"The old lady died of illness." She licked her lower lip and said falteringly: "The relationship is actually not very good.

"The old lady doesn't like the old man. Although she is decent on the surface, she always dislikes his rudeness behind her back, but she has never left any big talk for the children to see.

"She has lived a very cautious life in her life. That is to say, after the change of dynasty, the Zhang family was wiped out, and she has obviously regained her confidence."

as predicted.

Wen Chan's heart is full of Xu Jing, so how could she have a crush on Han Ruoji?
She said: "Does she have any secrets? For example, I want to ask her something important. Is there any way to force her to tell me?"

Mi Xiang looked at her, and suddenly shivered.

Shen Xi raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

She bit her lower lip until it turned white, looked at her, lowered her eyes, looked at her again, and then said eagerly: "There is something... If the servant says it, can the girl keep the servant from dying?"

"That depends on what to look at."

"It's about the old man's sick bed!" She said quickly, and then she also knelt closer.

"When the old man was lingering on the sick bed, one night the old lady quarreled with him in the room.

"Then I didn't dare to go far because I was on duty at night. I quietly looked at the window and saw that she had sprinkled some powder into the old man's soup medicine—about three or four days later, the old man died of illness!"

Shen Xi narrowed his eyes: "You mean, she poisoned Han Ruoju to death?"

"You can't say that either!"

Mi Xiang said: "At that time, the old man was about to lose his temper. Even if he didn't do that, he wouldn't be able to delay it for long. But the powder was indeed suspicious. At that time, Liu Xu was also convicted because of this, and she was expelled under a different name."

"Is this why Liu Xu went out?" Shen Xi frowned.

"That's right!" Mi Xiang said, "On the second night when the servant saw the old lady pouring powder into the soup, the old lady sent her away.

"At that time, the uncle came forward to intercede, so she let it go. The servant suspects that Liu Xu must have seen it too, but the old lady noticed it, but she always thought I was behind the scenes.

"In addition, after she left, the old lady deliberately reused me, which made her even more convinced."
