"What does Pei Tongxin want to do?" The sixth princess was very angry. She held up her skirt and walked out. She wanted to ask Mr. Pei.
"your Highness."
Before the Sixth Princess walked out of the door, Pei Tongxin came. Master Pei was very polite and stood in the courtyard without coming in.
The sixth princess did not wait for her maid, she pushed the door open and went out, standing in the yard to confront Pei Tongxin.
"Master Pei, now that there has been a murder in Baiyun Temple, and the noble daughter has been lost, it is so unsafe. Why don't you ask me to go to the palace to mobilize the imperial army? What are you afraid of, Master Pei?"
After the sixth princess finished speaking, she raised her chin habitually, like a little female cat that was always ready to fight, exposing its claws to provoke the enemy.
"The Forbidden Army protects His Majesty's safety. What's more, the Seventh Princess is very suspicious. Does the Sixth Princess want to go back and bring in reinforcements?"
The Sixth Princess laughed angrily, "Pei Tongxin! Who do you think I am? Why do you see me so clearly?"
Pei Tongxin was stunned and rubbed his fingers unconsciously. He paused before speaking again, "Does the princess really want to discuss the case in the courtyard?"
Ruan Mianmian pulled the sixth princess into the room who wanted to refute, and invited Pei Tongxin in.
This is the first time Pei Tongxin has met the third young lady of the Ruan family. She is very different from the rumors.
Pei Tongxin entered the side room and did not sit down. He just stood in the center and spoke loudly, his tone was calm and firm, which made people feel credible for no reason.
"According to Miss Li's maid, the seventh princess invited her to visit the garden, and she never came back after going out."
The sixth princess was stunned and looked at the seventh princess in disbelief.
"What did you do to provoke her?"
The daughter of a minister of the Ministry of War, and being friends with the princess of the current dynasty, her status is still not enough.
If the Seventh Princess hadn't taken the initiative, there wouldn't have been any interaction between the two.
The seventh princess, Xiao Anning, hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Last year at the palace banquet, Miss Li gave the Queen Mother a pair of embroidery. I saw that the Queen Mother liked it very much. Seeing that the Queen Mother's birthday was coming soon, I thought about it when I saw her today. So I just wanted to ask for advice.”
Excuse! And it's clumsy.
But no one present exposed her. Ruan Mianmian knew that Pei Tongxin, like her, wanted the seventh princess to let down her guard and expose her flaws.
The sixth princess just didn't know the inside story, she just wanted to protect her as a sister.
"Then the princess used the excuse of changing her clothes to meet Miss Li in the forest?" Pei Tongxin followed her words.
The seventh princess nodded immediately, "But before I went to see her, I met Wang...Miss Wang halfway, so I ran back."
"But her maid pointed out that the last person Miss Li saw was you!" Pei Tongxin's eyes were firm and his voice was like a bell.
"She lied, that maid lied, no, you blackmailed me, how dare you lie to the princess!"
Xiao Anning suddenly realized something, pointed at Pei Tongxin and shouted, she said it was impossible, no one would see her going to see Miss Li, and no one would know.
"The maid is awake, otherwise how could I know that it was the Seventh Princess who made an appointment with Miss Li."
Xiao Anning froze on the spot, as if someone had frozen him.
The next moment, her eyes were suddenly filled with fear, and she shook her head desperately in disbelief, silently saying "Impossible, impossible..."
"Why is it impossible? The maid identified the seventh princess as the last one to see her young lady. The seventh princess should give me an explanation!" "No, she lied, she deceived. I didn't see Miss Li at all. I went there. She was gone by then!”
Xiao Anning hugged her head and shouted, feeling that her brain couldn't move. Why was everything different from what she had planned.
"An Ning?!" The sixth princess looked at her in disbelief, "Didn't you just say that you didn't go find Miss Li?"
"Are you lying? Why are you lying?" The sixth princess stood in front of Xiao Anning and shook her shoulders, hoping to make her sober and explain the matter clearly.
Pei Tongguang glanced at the sixth princess. Although this princess was arrogant, she was still smart and had quick reactions.
"The seventh princess went to see Miss Li, but Miss Li disappeared, and her maid... died too!"
Pei Tongguang's words hit Xiao Anning's ears like thunder.
She suddenly went crazy and pushed the sixth princess in front of her away.
The sixth princess didn't check for a moment, staggered, and fell straight back.
The palace maid next to her had no time to react, and her head was about to hit the ground in the next second.
Ruan Mianmian wanted to step forward, but with sharp eyes she retracted her hand that wanted to hold the sixth princess.
The sixth princess closed her eyes, thinking that she would hit the ground hard, but suddenly she felt a light weight on her waist.
Then a strange breath came into her nose. The breath was warm and thick, making her feel much more at ease for no reason.
The sixth princess suddenly opened her eyes, and saw an unparalleled profile flashing before her eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.
When she realized that it was Pei Tongxin who saved her, she hurriedly took a few steps back and stood firm.
Pei Tongxin retracted his hand, put it behind his back, and subconsciously rubbed it with his fingertips. After calming down, he said, "The seventh princess's suspicion is serious, so let me leave it to my officer for trial."
"You are so presumptuous!" The seventh princess didn't know where the courage came from at this time. She pointed at Pei Tongxin's nose and shouted, "I am a princess after all and a relative of the emperor! What qualifications do you, a small official from the capital, have to judge me?" , get out of here! Get out!"
Pei Tongxin stood there with his expression unchanged, seemingly unfazed by the seventh princess's humiliation.
According to the law, Pei Tongxin is indeed not qualified to interrogate the Seventh Princess, but now there are two murder cases and a noble girl is missing. All the clues are on the Seventh Princess alone.
If there is no trial, I am afraid that time will be too late, and the missing Miss Li will be even more dangerous.
Just as Pei Tongxin was about to speak, he heard a loud slap.
"Xiao Anning! I don't believe you can kill anyone. Please explain the matter clearly to me!"
After all, the Sixth Princess is the most favored princess in the palace. She has a domineering aura about her that is easy to intimidate others.
Besides, the seventh princess had lived on her own for so many years. Since the emperor's sister believed that she would not kill someone, she suddenly felt that she might be able to escape this disaster.
Xiao Anning trembled and said, "It was Miss Li who I made an appointment with, but she was nowhere to be seen when I passed by. I walked around nearby, but I saw the maid next to her lying in the grass, covered with blood. I I was afraid that I couldn’t explain clearly, so I felt like I was running back, but I didn’t expect that I happened to meet Miss Wang..."
The credibility of this statement is too low. How could she be so lucky? She happened to meet two people, and the one who happened to be missing was her date.
But Pei Tongxin somewhat believed her, because the appearance of the seventh princess was very different from the murderer he speculated.
"There is another possibility. When the seventh princess passed by, the murderer was about to leave for the wing. He was hit by Miss Wang on the way, so he killed him and silenced him."
"your Highness."
Before the Sixth Princess walked out of the door, Pei Tongxin came. Master Pei was very polite and stood in the courtyard without coming in.
The sixth princess did not wait for her maid, she pushed the door open and went out, standing in the yard to confront Pei Tongxin.
