Chapter 74 Questioning ([-])

"Yeah." Yang Xuan snorted lightly, seeing that Cheng Qian had clarified the crux of the matter in a few words, he was half happy and half jealous.

The green-robed man pointed at Cao Huang again and said, "This person used to be friends with Hongqiu, and later, under Hongqiu's signal, he showed his affection to Aunt Xiangxia who is beside Wangfei, in order to frame Her Royal Highness!"

"So it's like this!" Xiangxia suddenly rushed forward and slapped Cao Huang a few times.

The soldier kneeling on the ground trembled, and then glanced at Hongqiu next to him, gritted his teeth and resisted, until Mingjing sent someone to pull Xiangxia away.

"Come here! Take Cao Huang down and wait." Yang Xuan waved his hand wearily as he watched the farce in front of him.

Linghu Kong led the two Habayashi guards and led Cao Huang out of the tent.

The generals on the side were all embarrassed at this moment, looking at each other, not knowing how to end this matter.

"Master Cheng, the rest is my family's business, you can step back." The man in black looked at the man in blue with displeasure.His own princess was assassinated, and he was so active, what did he want to do?
"My lord's words are wrong. The assassination of the eldest princess, how can it be said that it is your housework?" Cheng Qian glanced at the gray-robed woman with drooping eyes and said, "Besides, I still have something to say. .”

"What's the matter?" Yang Xuan wished he could cut off his gaze.

"It's not the first time for Hong Qiu to assassinate the eldest princess." Cheng Qian had just said a word when he saw Zhao Shuang winking at him and timidly touching his face, not knowing what went wrong.

He was clearly speaking for her, why was she so nervous?

Seeing Cheng Qian and Zhao Shuang's flirtatious eyes, Yang Xuan hesitated to speak further, and Yang Xuan took a breath in his heart, and raised his voice and asked, "Isn't it the first time? What else?"

"No...not anymore, my lord." Zhao Shuang shook his head vigorously.

"Cheng Shaoqing, tell me." The soldier served a cup of tea, and Yang Xuan took a sip, then looked at the man in the blue robe maliciously.

"Last time in Lihua Lane, the princess was assassinated, and the official... happened to pass by and saved... the princess." Cheng Qian said, glanced shyly at the gray-robed woman, but saw her put a hand on her forehead, blocking the scene. Eye.

"Pear Blossom Lane?" Yang Xuan looked sideways at Zhao Shuang, his mind spinning a thousand times.

I remember that Lihua Lane seemed to be near the back door of the Marquis of Yongchang, what was Zhao Shuang doing there?
And this Cheng Qian, how could he happen to pass by?Although he tried his best to restrain Zhao Shuang, the way he looked at Zhao Shuang was full of greed and joy, which made Yang Xuan feel extremely pampered.

"So what?" The man in Xuanyi glanced at the two of them displeasedly, and deliberately snorted, "Catch the thief and seize the stolen goods, why does Cheng Shaoqing say that the assassin is Hongqiu?"

Ming Jing and Mao Hu scratched their heads, not sure what Wang Ye was thinking.He was obviously on the side of the princess just now, so why did he help Hongqiu to speak?

Only Pingfeng made two "tsk tsk" in his heart, knowing that this was his master's pretended toughness after being injured, that Cheng Shaoqing of the Weiwei's mansion really touched his back this time, and he will wait for the regent's crazy revenge in the future .

"When the assassin fled in a hurry, he left the dagger on the ground. Later, I went back to Lihua Lane to find the dagger," Cheng Qian said, taking out a fish-gut dagger from his sleeve, "Please look at it, my lord. , Is it a thing of red autumn?"

A soldier took the dagger and handed it to Yang Xuan.

When the kneeling woman in white saw the dagger, her eyes immediately filled with horror.

Yang Xuan only took a second look, then threw the dagger at the kneeling woman, and it hit her shoulder with a "slap", "You are the only one in the Yulin Guard who uses this sausage dagger! What else do you have to say?"

Hong Qiu picked up the dagger, looked at Zhao Shuang with resentment, and said, "Demon girl! I only hate that day in Meifang Courtyard, I was soft-hearted and didn't take your life!"

Zhao Shuang glanced at her, and said calmly, "Hongqiu, you are not soft-hearted, you are thinking...instead of taking my life, it would be better for the prince to hate me completely, which will relieve your hatred."

"My lord! This slave is not reconciled!" Hong Qiu's stubborn face suddenly showed a look of collapse, she wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, and choked up, "Since the princess woke up, you have loved her every night, and this servant is not reconciled... "

"You..." Yang Xuan didn't expect that this seemingly innocent woman would have such nasty thoughts about herself, "Hongqiu! You were originally one of the best hidden guards in the Habayashi Guards. I lost my composure, I was in the same room with you alone, and you would not enter the mansion as a concubine. This king has always felt that you have been wronged! If it weren’t for this king, you would have been able to rise to the top and become a female general..."

"My lord!" Hearing this, Hong Qiu couldn't help it anymore, stepped forward and hugged the man's long legs and cried, "Hong Qiu doesn't want to be a female general, Hong Qiu just wants to be by the lord's side, but Hong Qiu knows that the lord is right Hongqiu has no personal affair between men and women, otherwise you should have made the mistake that night in the northern border..."

Zhao Shuang felt very bored listening to the two people counting the past, so she stood up and said, "Xiangxia, let's go back."

"Shuang'er!" Yang Xuan hurriedly grabbed her hand, "You stay here."

"Joke! Didn't the lord just want Ben Gong to go back and wait for news? Now he wants Ben Gong to stay?" Zhao Shuang broke away from his hand, walked to Xiang Xia's side, helped her up, and said coldly to her, " Xiangxia, what happened today is also a lesson for you, just remember, don’t trust men’s words lightly. You can’t trust any fellow countrymen or lovers.”

The sergeants present all showed embarrassment and held their breath, for fear of making her angry again.

Ping Feng heard that there was something in her words, obviously there was resentment, so he proposed: "Princess, should I send you a carriage?"

"No need," Zhao Shuang helped Xiangxia walk to the door, "I want to take a walk."

Seeing Zhao Shuang leaving the door, Cheng Qian hurriedly said goodbye, and chased her and Xiangxia out of the big tent, but stayed a few steps away from them, not daring to approach them.

Inside the big tent, Hong Qiu was still holding on to Yang Xuan's clothes to prevent him from leaving.

"Hongqiu, this king told you that the princess is also your master, but instead of protecting her, you even assassinated her. According to the rules of the Habayashi Guard, a traitor will be punished with death." Jiao, stood up and said, "Mingjing, I will leave Hongqiu to you."

Just as Yang Xuan was about to go out to chase Zhao Shuang, she heard the woman in white behind her cry, "My lord! Back then we entered the Yuding Lake with a blood alliance and entrusted life and death to each other. Now Hongqiu knows his mistake, please punish me. "

As soon as these words came out, the big tent fell into an eerie silence.

All the generals know that although Hong Qiu said "please punish her", in fact, if the prince punishes her, the army will mistake her for someone who does not miss old love and crosses rivers and destroys bridges.

"when!"

The man in black walked to the door, and suddenly took out a metal soldier badge from his sleeve and threw it on the ground angrily, stirring up a cloud of dust, "No wonder the princess said you have a tricky mind. This king is sitting on this seat because of your talents, not because of fame. Not to mention dealing with a woman, even when dealing with the young emperor of Beiliang, why did this king blink?!"
