Chapter 214 Her Birthday Gift
Li Tianxiao said: "Young Master Wuqing is worried about the princess, and I know that too. It's just that the case needs to be solved step by step, and it can't be solved immediately. I guarantee that I will let the people below catch the murderer. Kingdom of Shu, what should be done and what should not be done, and I hope that Prince Wuqing has a clear idea."

Prince Wu Qing was taken aback by the coldness in Li Tianxiao's eyes, and he couldn't help but wiped his face when he recovered, "...Yes."

After Prince Wuqing left, Chu Qing looked at Li Tianxiao, but the latter didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, his eyes swept over her body inch by inch, Chu Qing's heart was trembling, and finally she could bear it. I couldn't stop, coughed lowly, and said: "Your Majesty, if there is nothing wrong, I will go out of the palace and continue investigating the case."

Who knows, Li Tianxiao still didn't say a word.

He didn't speak and Chu Qing didn't dare to leave, so he could only bite the bullet and stay there. Even with his head down, he could feel Li Tianxiao's gaze was on her all the time, which made Chu Qing feel extremely uncomfortable, and finally endured. Unable to stop, she secretly raised her head to glance at Li Tianxiao, and met the other's dark eyes. She was helpless, and called out again: "Your Majesty?"

Li Tianxiao pursed his thin lips: "Could it be that if I don't look for you, you don't know to come to me?"

Chu Qing screamed inwardly, and the other party was still thinking about the previous matter: "This...the reason why I didn't go to the palace to report these days is because the government office is too busy."

Li Tianxiao snorted coldly: "Do you think I don't know if the government office is busy or not?"

Chu Qing drooped her head: "Your Majesty..."

Seeing her looking up pitifully, Li Tianxiao finally softened his heart. It is impossible to be so cold with her: "You don't need to feel pressure about the case of Princess Ayiyue. If you can break it, you can break it. If you can't, you can break it. She I ran out and went missing and got into an accident, that Prince Wuqing wanted to use this reason to put pressure on me, he really took himself seriously, I never took Nanguo seriously, just do what you want."

Chu Qing breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Li Tianxiao's words, but she also knew that Li Tianxiao was angry. She might have said a lot of inappropriate things before she came, but she couldn't really let it go. Don't worry about it, after all, if there is a real disturbance, although Cangshu is not afraid of Nanguo, if Nanguo forms a partnership with several other subordinate countries, it will be a threat to Cangshu after all: "Yes, I know."

Li Tianxiao waved his hand: "Okay, you can go out of the palace."

Chu breathed a sigh of relief, and just turned around, but was stopped by Li Tianxiao again.

Chu Qing turned around strangely, but Li Tianxiao didn't speak again, just looked at her quietly.She asked strangely, "Your Majesty?"

Li Tianxiao pursed his thin lips tightly: "You have nothing else to tell me?"

"Ah? Say, say what?" Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat, feeling that Li Tianxiao was acting weird today.

Li Tianxiao seemed unhappy: "You go out."

Chu Qing touched his forehead and left. She didn't understand when she got outside the imperial study room, but he was willing to talk to him. It should be because he was not angry with the last time, but what else did he want to tell him?Does he have to wait for himself to apologize, but he did nothing wrong?Chu Qing hurriedly went back to the government office to check the corpses that had been retrieved, so she couldn't wait to leave the palace.

When the imperial chief came in, he found that the emperor was staring at a place in a daze.

He changed Li Tianxiao to a new cup of tea, and then quietly stood aside without speaking.

It took Li Tianxiao a long time to come back to his senses, seeing that he didn't speak, and spread out the memorial, but he couldn't read a single word.The chief steward looked at him, couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, and pushed the cup forward: "The emperor is tired, let's drink some tea."

Li Tianxiao was upset, pushed the memorial forward, and started to drink.

Just took a sip, thinking that Chu Qing, who was not enlightened, still had a headache, put down the cup, rubbed his brows, and heard the main pipe: "Your Majesty, speaking of it, Master Yu is quite caring."

Li Tianxiao's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't let go of his arms: "Which one are you referring to, Master Yu?"

The manager covered the smile in his eyes, and said in a warm voice: "This servant is talking about Yu Tixing. Earlier, this servant met Mr. Shi, the servant of the Ministry of Rites. He mentioned the birthday gift submitted by Yu Tixing. The name is interesting, so I told the servant more. A few words." The manager said these are just reasons, after all, he is the eunuch serving the emperor, so naturally he is not allowed to engage in politics, and the Minister of Rites will naturally not tell him these things, this is Master Yu Kuifeng, seeing that Li Tianxiao is not very happy these days, Find out specifically, and let him mention it in front of Li Tianxiao.

Sure enough, Li Tianxiao's face softened a bit: "What birthday gift did she give?"

Li Tianxiao knows that Chu Qing is doing that witty wedding these days, and he probably doesn't have much money in his hands, and his birthday gift is not very expensive, but he doesn't care, knowing that the other party hasn't given him at least yet. I forgot my birthday, and the pent-up in my heart for the past two days suddenly eased up a lot.

The steward smiled: "Speaking of which, Mr. Yu is also interesting. The gift he gave was directly named 'Fu Lu Shou', but it is festive and meaningful."

Li Tianxiao snorted softly: "What's 'Fu Lv Shou', she just has no money, I'm afraid she doesn't know where to get a cheap item, it's worthless, so she just named it like this, so that people can't go wrong Come." Even though he knew it was worthless, Li Tianxiao was still very happy in his heart. After holding back for a long time, he still couldn't help but glanced at the manager, seeing that the other party lowered his eyes and didn't notice anything, so he couldn't help but said: "What did she give you?" ?do you know?"

The steward shook his head and said: "The emperor is embarrassing this servant. If you want to talk about other adults, the servant may know, because they are all reported in the newspaper, but Mr. Yu is interesting. She even wrapped a special box. People from the Ministry of Rites studied it. For a long time, I don't know how to open it. It's not very reasonable, after all, it is a congratulatory gift to the emperor, and it needs to be inspected according to the usual practice, so..."

Li Tianxiao waved his hand: "No need, I trust her."

Even if he suspects who is going to kill him, he will not doubt Chu Qing. After all, if she wants to assassinate him, it is easier than anyone else.

Thinking of this, Li Tianxiao's eyes softened, and he sighed softly: "Forget it, since she doesn't understand, then he can just wait."

When Chu Qing returned to the government office, she saw that Ying Zhenxing just came back with a few servants, followed by people from the Ministry of Punishment, carrying several straw mats in a row. .When these yamen servants passed by, the common people stayed away, for fear of being bumped into and tainted with bad luck.

Chu Qing stood beside the stone lions in the government office, and counted, there were twelve straw mats in total, that is to say... there were actually twelve corpses.

This number flashed through Chu Qing's mind, and her expression changed: Who the hell is so cruel and merciless, killing so many people.

She gasped, Ying Zhenxing saw her, and hurried over: "My lord."

"All these were dug out from that dry well?" Chu Qing's voice was a little rough, and it took him a long time to find his own voice, and he rubbed the center of his brows.

"It's my lord. No wonder the people from the Ministry of Punishment didn't find anything unusual when they went to retrieve Amon's body. The dry well happened to be next to a towering tree, which completely blocked the light. It was also full of fallen leaves. It was covered with layers, and when people stepped on it, those leaves turned into mud-like things, and when people stepped on them, they all sank in. It took us a lot of effort to dig out those corpses. Although it was only three years, but Because of the humidity, the earlier corpses were all bones, and they looked... very bad, I'm afraid these corpses need to be cleaned up, otherwise they won't be able to see at all, and the smell...is not very good." Ying Zhenxing thought about Chu Qing is also a woman, I am afraid that she will be very concerned about the smell, but who knows, Chu Qing didn't even frown.

"No need, just carry it directly to the courtyard of the government office, and leave a space to carry the twelve corpses there. Also, ask the master to take my warrant and go to the government office and the Fusi of Nanbei Township. Call the young woman who disappeared in the capital within three years." After Chu Qing said, he went back and changed his official robe, fearing it would get dirty, so he changed into a simple service. When he came out, Ying Zhenxing had already arranged it. But when he saw her, he couldn't help but ask.

"My lord, how do you know that the missing women are all young?"

Chu Qing had already put on gloves and had ginger slices in her mouth. Hearing this, she turned her head and looked at him: "These people only want her life when they treat Amon, and they didn't take her silver bag, which means that the other party is not a murderer. Money kills, since it is not seeking money, it is plotting people, then, since plotting people, who is plotting, if it is Amon and Princess Ayiyue, then both of them will be there, but why only Amon was killed? Princess Yiyue's body was not found, which means that what the other party wants is not only a young woman, but also... an extremely beautiful woman." She had observed A Mu's face before, and it was not particularly outstanding, thinking about it, like A spoiled girl like Ayiyue is afraid of being extremely jealous. Naturally, no one is allowed to be more beautiful than her, but it is obvious that Ayiyue's jealousy is stronger than others, because she The selected Amu's appearance can't be said to be average, but not very good-looking, and she has seen a lot of Amon's corpses, it is indeed not outstanding, it can be said to be very ordinary.

So from these points, it is not difficult to find that the target of the other party...is a human being, and the target is also a human being, and the target is probably an extremely beautiful woman.

It's just that it's worth scrutinizing what the other party wants to do with these women.

Hearing this, Ying Zhenxing's face changed slightly. He has been in the government office for so long, and naturally he has handled many dirty cases, so he immediately thought of something: "What does your lord mean...the other party may take the princess Give……"

Chu Qing rubbed his brows: "I'm afraid it's good, at least they will save the princess' life, but the opponent's method is different from that kind of person, cruel and methodical, do you think if it is an ordinary robber, The other party will always commit crimes in the same place, so there is no fear?"
