Evil King's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 307

While Fang Chuchu was sleeping soundly, Ye Lingxu came to the inn where Yuxiu died tragically. Not only Yuxiu and Yunsheng, but even the subordinates pretending to be coachmen were killed by the knife.After checking one by one, it was found that those wounds were almost bloody. Ye Lingxu cast his cold eyes, "It was done by a master, go and investigate, and make sure to find out in the shortest possible time."

"Yes!" Yang Rong is now in the court, and he knows what the death of Yun Sheng and Yuxiu in Wei State means, presumably in a few days, the war between Wei and Liao will start.

In the prince's mansion, Fang Chuchu had just fallen asleep when she dreamed of children covered in blood with small hands walking towards her, "Mother, give me a hug."

"hug……"

"Go away, go away, you are not my family." Looking at the child with a wicked smile, Fang Chuchu waved her hands repeatedly to push her away.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" In front of the bed, Yilan grabbed Fang Chuchu's hands waving in the air, seeing her sweating profusely opening and closing her mouth, she didn't know what to say, so she could only try to wake her up.

Mu Pei came from the palace with news to bring to Fang Chuchu, but unexpectedly saw this scene.Without further ado, she stepped forward and pushed Yilan away, "Shh, don't wake her up, she is a nightmare, she has to wake up by herself. Otherwise, waking her up forcibly will only damage her heart."

"Ah..." Yilan gasped suddenly, fortunately her cry just now did not wake up the princess, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Mu Pei gently grasped Fang Chuchu's two hands waving in the air to prevent her from hurting herself or touching anything.Looking sideways, she looked at Yilan who was stunned at the side, "Go and light some soothing incense."

"Oh." Yilan nodded and left, only Mu Pei and Fang Chuchu were left in the hall.

Seeing Fang Chuchu frowning all the time, Mu Pei remembered the ditties from his hometown, took out a flute from his bosom and began to play it.

I don't know if the nightmare is over, or Mu Pei's music played a role. When Yilan came back with Anshenxiang, Fang Chuchu had calmed down and didn't need it anymore.

"So powerful?" Yilan stared at Mu Pei dumbfounded, and couldn't help feeling nympho, "You are so powerful, not only can you lead troops to fight, but you can also play tunes."

"Thank you." Mu Pei's tone was still calm, and his clear and caring eyes fell on Fang Chuchu's sleeping face, and he lowered his voice: "She should sleep for a while, I have something to say in the palace, I will leave first, Come visit again another day.”

Seeing that Mu Pei is good-looking, both civil and military, and still so self-effacing, Yilan couldn't help but stick her eyes to him, "Mr. Mu, why don't you wait in the side hall for a while, and it will be noon in a while. Eat and go."

Mu Pei was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Ye Lingxu's subordinates to hold him back like this, he raised his lips and smiled lightly, like the cool breeze in a shining summer, Yilan suddenly knew that his heart had changed.What Yan Mo is nothing compared to Mu Pei.

Sure enough, as Mu Pei said, Fang Chuchu woke up unsteadily after a short sleep, the nightmare was still lingering in her mind, and now she was in a trance.

When walking across the small bridge and down the stairs, Fang Chuchu inadvertently missed a step, and was about to have a close contact with the earth.

"Princess, be careful when walking." With a clear and sweet voice rang in his ears, a strong arm firmly caught Fang Chuchu.

Raising her eyes, meeting Mu Pei's clear eyes, Fang Chuchu smiled back to express her feelings.Stand firm and slightly distanced herself from Mu Pei, not because she was sincere, but because she didn't want to give Mu Pei too much hope.It is more painful to have hope and then to be disappointed than to never have hope.

Mu Pei withdrew his hand, and after a moment of embarrassment, he said calmly: "I have something I want to tell the princess, and I hope the princess can find a convenient place, after all, this matter is of great importance..."

After thinking about it, Fang Chuchu pointed to Ye Lingxu's study room. He usually handles some important matters in the study room, so people in the prince's mansion generally would not go to the study room without permission.Since Mu Pei has something important to say, it is most appropriate to go to the study.

When he came to the study room, although he saw the new decorations in the study room, Mu Pei didn't have the leisure time to look at it.Kneeling down in front of Fang Chuchu with a plop, "Please don't be angry after listening to what I said, the princess, no matter what His Highness the Crown Prince does, he has a reason."

His Royal Highness?Fang Chuchu was slightly taken aback, wondering if the prince he was talking about was Ye Lingxu or Su Qingyang.

"His Royal Highness and I grew up together, and I know him best."

Mu Pei then said such a sentence, which made Fang Chuchu suddenly realize, oh, so he was talking about Brother Qingyang.But, what did he do to make Mu Pei kneel here for him?Frowning slightly, she tried to lift Mu Pei up from the ground.

But Mu Pei was determined not to get up, and knelt straight in front of Fang Chuchu, hesitating for a while, before saying in a deep voice: "Actually, Yuxiu was killed by the crown prince."

Fang Chuchu looked at Mu Pei in shock, but figured it out after a while, Xiaoxin was dead, and Yuxiu was Ye Linfeng's helper back then, even if Ye Linfeng hadn't died in Qi Yun's hands, he would have been killed by Su Qingyang .He was avenging Xiaoxin, Fang Chuchu understood.

However, it was not good for him to intercept and kill Yuxiu and Yunsheng there, but it happened to be in Weiguo's territory.What's worse is that when Yuxiu died, there were Ye Lingxu's troops beside him, and King Liao would definitely conclude that Ye Lingxu killed Yuxiu.The conflict will only escalate, and the war between the two countries may not be far away...

Thinking of this, Fang Chuchu's eyes went dark and she sat on the grand teacher's chair, stretching out her hands to support her head, feeling sad and guilty at the same time.

"Princess, you must take care of yourself. No matter what the prince does, he is still your cousin and your closest relative. He will not harm you." Seeing Fang Chuchu's expression was gloomy, Mu Peiben stretched out his hand to want He patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, but remembering what Su Qingyang had said to him, he suppressed the desire and desire in his heart and took his hand back.

Suppressing the concern for her in his heart, he pretended to be indifferent: "Also, I have resigned from the position of commander of the imperial army, and I must set off to return to the country of Qi in a few days."

He thought for a while, and then said: "Princess, do you want to go back with me?"

Fang Chuchu shook her head slowly, Su Qingyang let Ye Lingxu take such a big blame, the Liao Kingdom will start a war against the Wei Kingdom in a few days, how could she abandon Ye Lingxu at this time.No matter how ruthless he is and how powerful the city is, Fang Chuchu believes that he will not treat her like this.

Mu Pei obviously understood Fang Chuchu's expression, but he smiled in disappointment. He had already expected that she would refuse, but fortunately, he didn't have any hope from the beginning. "Since that's the case, Mu Pei bids farewell. The sky will be high and the road will be far away in the future, please take care of the princess."

Fang Chuchu nodded slightly, and another trustworthy person left her. From now on, such separation is probably common.Even if she is sad, she must force herself to accept it. There is always a banquet in the world.

Ye Lingxu hurried back from the outside, just in time to meet Mu Pei who had left from the Prince's Mansion, seeing him dressed in white with a downcast expression, he couldn't help frowning.Get off the horse and hand over the whip to the butler, "Is Chu Chu awake?"

"The Crown Princess just met Commander Mu in the study, but I don't know what the two said. After Commander Mu left, the Crown Princess has been crying." The housekeeper told him everything he knew.

"Crying?" Ye Lingxu frowned even more, Chuchu was not a fragile person, let alone sentimental, there must be no small things that could make her cry.Thinking of this, Ye Lingxu strode towards the study.

Fang Chuchu in the study heard Ye Lingxu's footsteps, and hurriedly reached out to wipe the tears off her face, but it was still a step too late, and Ye Lingxu saw it after all.

"Did Mu Pei bully you?" Ye Lingxu rushed into the study in a hurry, just in time to see Fang Chuchu silently wiping tears, and immediately became furious.

Fang Chuchu shook her head, picked up a pen and wrote a few words on a piece of rice paper cut out on the case, "I beg you, don't investigate the cause of Yuxiu's death?"

Because he was standing opposite the desk case, every word Ye Lingxu saw was upside down, so it was a bit difficult to read.He recovered for a long time before he could see clearly what she had written. In an instant, his expression changed, "Do you know who killed Yuxiu?"

He didn't care about Yuxiu's death, but he wanted to know who killed the princess of Liao Kingdom on the territory of Wei Kingdom, and what was the purpose behind it.

Faced with Ye Lingxu's questioning, Fang Chuchu looked away, unwilling to tell him the truth that Su Qingyang was the murderer.After all, between brothers, the cutting of robes and righteousness had already hurt him. If he knew that Su Qingyang had framed him in this way, the brotherhood between the two would be irretrievable no matter what.

But Fang Chuchu's refusal to say didn't mean that Ye Lingxu couldn't figure it out. Thinking of Mu Pei who bumped into outside the mansion just now, an answer was ready to come out in his heart.But he didn't want to believe that although the two of them were not as close as brothers and sisters, at least they had the sympathy of heroes to cherish each other. He didn't expect that breaking up would be so simple...

"It's Su Qingyang." After a long silence, Ye Lingxu finally plucked up the courage to say the name.

Fang Chuchu nodded with difficulty, grabbed Ye Lingxu's sleeve, and looked at Ye Lingxu with eyes full of guilt.

He stretched out his hand to gently embrace Fang Chuchu, and caressed her ink-like hair condescendingly, "Don't feel guilty to me, we are husband and wife, and your brother is my brother. Besides, I was the one who was wrong first. , My men and horses went to rescue Xiaoxin from the mountainside, I thought I could save her, so I shot arrows at Qi Yun mercilessly on the cliff."

Thinking of what happened that day, Ye Lingxu admitted that he cared too much about Fang Chuchu, and only when he saw that she was going to risk her life, he made a choice between the two. "If I had given my subordinates more time at that time, perhaps it would not have become what it is today."

Regarding Xiaoxin's death, Ye Lingxu felt guilty as well, it was not what Su Qingyang thought, he was not a person with a hard heart and no conscience.

Fang Chuchu opened her eyes wide in disbelief, she looked at Ye Lingxu and asked silently.

Ye Lingxu nodded, "That's the truth. I won't lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can ask the subordinates who went with you that day. But what I didn't expect was that my people only found Qi Yun's body in the end. But looking along the vine in his hand, there is a small tree at the other end."

Fang Chuchu's eyes lit up, Xiaoshu?That means that Xiaoxin might not be dead yet, and it is very likely that she got away before Ye Lingxu shot and killed Qi Yun.With this thought in mind, Fang Chuchu picked up a pen and quickly wrote down his thoughts.

"I thought so too at first, so I didn't explain it to Su Qingyang, thinking that I would surprise Xiaoxin when he found it. But it has been a day and a night, and there is still no news." Ye Lingxu sighed, a bad one Thoughts emerged in his mind, in case Xiao Xin really died, how should he face Su Qingyang?
