Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

The twilight was crumbling, and the gorgeous sunset glow painted half of the sky, dazzling like blood.When Fu Mingjue came back, he saw that the light was on in the attic to the east, and when he looked up, he happened to see Ling Youyao stepping on a stool looking for a book.

There are many books in the attic, not only books, but also the big and small affairs of the noble families in the capital, and even the secret affairs of Xin.

Ever since Ling Youyao found Ling Qingwei's letter in the attic last time, Fu Mingjue didn't hide it from her anymore, and allowed her to come and go as she wanted. If she wanted to know anything, she could come and find it by herself.

Speaking of it, it seems that Ling Youyao has never been here since that time.

And today again, it's because of Ling Qingwei.
When Fu Mingjue came up, Ling Youyao was standing on the stool, holding the file in his hand, with a serious expression.

Seeing her like this, Fu Mingjue was very curious. When he walked to her and read the contents of the file, his expression changed slightly: "Are you in King Channing?"

Ling Youyao was too engrossed in watching it, and was startled by him, the dossier fell to the ground suddenly, and fell back staggeringly.

Fu Mingjue hugged her, put her down, then picked up the file that fell on the floor, and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to check him?"

Ling Youyao hesitated for a moment, and said: "I remember my brother told me that King Ning wanted to use his sister to threaten you before he would attack her, but my brother also said that he didn't want to kill my sister."

Thinking of King Ning's appearance before his death, Fu Mingjue curled his lips into a sneer: "He did say such things before he died, but Qingwei was already dead at that time, no matter how much he said, it would not change the fact that he was about to die. "

"But." Ling Youyao looked at him seriously, "What if what he said is true?"

In the past, she also thought that King Ning killed her sister, but after hearing the small words today, she became suspicious of it.

Fu Mingjue's eyes were dark, and he couldn't guess what he was thinking at the moment. After a long silence, he said, "Even if what he said is true, he still deserves to die."

King Ning was ambitious, and after losing the battle for the throne, he was still unwilling to give up, and even joined forces with the Tatars in an attempt to seek power and usurp the throne.Such a person, even if he hadn't been beheaded by the sword, His Majesty would not easily spare him.

Now that the old matter is brought up again, Fu Mingjue has no regrets at all. In his eyes, his fourth brother should have died when His Majesty ascended the throne.It's just that His Majesty spared his life because he didn't want to get a bad name of murdering his brothers, but he didn't want it to cause a catastrophe.

Ling Youyao said: "I know he deserves to die, but didn't you say that when you arrived, the people in Prince Ning's Mansion had already been dragged away, so who could have shot arrows in the dark to kill sister?"

Fu Mingjue thought about it carefully, and said: "At that time, this king was only looking for you, and didn't see who shot the arrow."

The arrow shot out from the dark, with a strong killing intent, and aimed directly at Ling Qingwei.

At that time, Fu Mingjue saw the blood all over the ground, and his rationality was washed away. He looked around, but he didn't see Ling Youyao.When he noticed the arrow flying towards Ling Qingwei, it was too late, and he wanted to stop it, but it was still a step too late.

The cold arrow pierced through Ling Qingwei's heart, almost killing her on the spot.

Thinking back now, Fu Mingjue vaguely felt that something was wrong, and said: "The king sent someone to check that arrow, and it was shot by a crossbow. The range of the arrow of the crossbow is not far, and the assailant should have been nearby at that time. But then The scene was chaotic and two groups of people were fighting, if someone took advantage of the chaos to commit murder, it is not impossible."

Hearing these words, Ling Youyao's eyes gradually sank, and the terrible guess in her heart resurfaced in her mind.

Seeing that her face turned pale, Fu Mingjue frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

Ling Youyao suddenly came back to her senses, raised her eyes to meet his worried eyes, didn't know how to speak for a moment, reached out and hugged his waist tightly, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, the restless heart also quieted down down.

Fu Mingjue thought that she remembered the bloody scene back then, and was afraid, so he hugged her gently, and comforted her: "I know you can't let go of my sister, but everyone who made mistakes has been killed by me. You don’t need to be afraid, if you want to know something, just ask.”

Ling Youyao leaned into his arms, and said slowly: "Xiao Xiao told me today that Su Lingxi said before leaving that if she knew this, she should have gotten rid of me in the first place."

Suddenly, she raised her face to look at Fu Mingjue, and continued: "When I met Su Lingxi in the palace before, she also said similar things, but I didn't think about it at that time, but now I..."

"You suspect that Su Lingxi killed Qingwei?" Fu Mingjue said what she was thinking.

"Well," Ling Youyao was only skeptical and had no evidence, "But Su Lingxi was only 13 years old at the time, how dare she kill someone in that situation?"

No matter how bad Su Lingxi was, she was just playing tricks. At that time, they were all real swords and guns. If she was a little careless, she might even get involved.

Fu Mingjue didn't think so: "Su Lingxi grew up in the palace, and you have seen a lot of tricks. Besides, she was really loved by King Ping back then."

Prince Ping ranked sixth, with a flirtatious and lustful nature, seeing that Su Lingxi was born like a flower at a young age, and she is also the daughter of the Duke Yu's mansion, he naturally became interested.Although Fu Mingjue knew about this, he did not associate Su Lingxi with Ling Qingwei's death.

Now hearing Ling Youyao mention it, he also became suspicious.

"The bow and crossbow are small, and you only need to flip the mechanism to shoot the arrow." He pondered, "If you think about it, your doubts are not unreasonable."

"Really?" Ling Youyao withdrew from his arms and stared at him.

"It is indeed possible, but the key lies in the arrow." Fu Mingjue turned around, walked to the bookshelf, took out the arrow from the first hidden compartment in the fourth row, and then handed the arrow to Ling Youyao, Said: "This arrow came from Prince Ning's mansion, so I never thought it would be someone else."

Holding the arrow, Ling Youyao's fingertips trembled faintly. Such a sharp and cold arrow passing through her body should be very painful, very painful.
Fu Mingjue held her by the shoulder and said, "Although it has been so long, if you want to check, I will help you."

She shook her head: "I want to do it by myself this time."

No matter what the result is, no matter whether that person is Su Lingxi or not, this time, she wants to pay her sister justice by herself, and also wants to end all this with her own hands.

Fu Mingjue looked into her dark and firm eyes, leaned over and hugged her, and said softly: "Okay, but you have to promise me that no matter what the final truth is, you must tell me first, and you can't act impulsively."

He knew that Ling Qingwei was very important in Ling Youyao's heart, and he also knew that she just looked rational and stable.If Su Lingxi was really the murderer of Ling Qingwei, he was afraid that Ling Youyao would kill her in a fit of anger, and he didn't care about Su Lingxi's life or death, he just didn't want Ling Youyao's hands to be stained with blood.

Holding the cold arrow, Ling Youyao buried her face in his arms, and only after a while did she let out a muffled "hmm".

She also knows what Fu Mingjue is worried about, but whether she can be rational will have to wait until then.
