Li'er raised her head in surprise and stared at Su Qiuyue.

Su Qiuyue made a determined expression and said in a gentle tone: "Li'er, I hope you can help me find the murderer who killed Xiying and avenge Xiying."

Li'er's eyes suddenly turned red. She recalled the glorious days when she served Mrs. Xiying. She also remembered that Mrs. Xiying was indeed very good to her despite her indifferent personality.

However, since the death of Mrs. Xiying, her situation has plummeted, which made her resentful towards the princess. However, the princess told her at this time that Mrs. Xiying was not killed by the princess. How could she believe it?

Seeing Li'er's doubts, Su Qiuyue continued: "Li'er, I will find the murderer. As long as you can help me find the murderer, I will return the deed of betrayal to you. You will be free like ordinary people from now on." body."

Li'er's eyes lit up. She had been sold into the palace as a slave since she was a child and had suffered a lot. Now she had the opportunity to get rid of her slave status, which made her very happy.

"I will tell the princess everything I know. I hope the princess can find the murderer as soon as possible and avenge Mrs. Xiying." Li'er knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

Seeing that she had successfully subdued Li'er, Su Qiuyue smiled and said: "Li'er, get up and tell me everything about the day Mrs. Xiying was killed."

"Yes", Li'er fell into memories and said slowly: "I remember that Ruxue did enter the small kitchen of our Zhilan Courtyard that day, and I even said hello to her. It seems that Ruxue was indeed instigated by someone. The pastry was poisoned."

"Is Ruyan still in the house?"

Li'er shook her head and said: "Ruyan was sent to Ren Yazi for sale from that day on, and Ruyun was sent to Zhuangzi."

Su Qiuyue sighed. In fact, Ruyun was a good girl, but it was a pity that she was implicated by what happened that day. When she got the opportunity, she went to Zhuangzi and took Ruyun to her place.

"Okay, I understand. You go back first and look for opportunities to help me find clues quietly."

"Yes." Li'er responded and retreated.

Su Qiuyue rubbed her eyebrows, thinking about what to do next.

Ruxue has been betrayed, and she doesn't know if she can still be found.

She ate a few bites of the dinner that Qian Hong brought in, then sat quietly in the room alone.

As the sky gradually darkened, Qianhong and a few girls brought them face wash, foot wash and a change of clothes.

Just when she finished washing and was about to go to bed, the window was opened and Ye jumped in through the window.

Su Qiuyue pretended to be surprised and said: "Who are you and why did you break into my boudoir? Get out quickly."

Ye Dan said calmly: "Stop pretending."

Su Qiuyue chuckled and said: "As expected of Xiaoye, you are really smart. How did you recognize that the person at home is not me?"

"You two look completely different to me."

"What's the difference?" You have to ask clearly to avoid being recognized by people in the palace.

"The temperament is different, the eyes are different, the demeanor is different, everything is different."

Su Qiuyue rolled her eyes, saying that she didn't say anything.

"By the way, Xiaoye, what are you doing here?"

"I don't want you out of my sight."

"I'm not a child, do you need to keep an eye on me?"

"It comes in handy."

"Okay, okay, if I don't want to be poor with you, help me find Ruxue, the maid I used to have. She was sold to Ren Yazi."

"Okay, should I ask Qin Yan to do it?"

"Why don't you check it yourself?"

"I have to watch you."

Su Qiuyue rolled her eyes again.

After jumping out of the window at night, Su Qiuyue lay down on the bed. The bed had obviously been replaced. The material was more precious, and even the bedding was higher than what she had slept on.

However, her heart felt much more at ease. After all, with Ye by her side, how could she be afraid of a mere thief from the underworld?

The next day, Su Qiuyue, who got up early, felt very uncomfortable. It had been a long time since she had gotten up so early.

She had dark circles under her eyes and asked Qian Hong to do her makeup. Several little maids walked in and out to wash Su Qiuyue. This reminded Su Qiuyue of when she was still a fake princess, and Xiangning Ruyun and the others were chattering around her. days, but things have changed now.

After finishing dressing up, Su Qiuyue sat on the main seat in the flower hall. After a while, Xie Wanqing and Lin Weiyu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, came to say hello.

Wan Qing and Wei Yu were still as pretty and charming as before. They walked into the flower hall and bowed to Su Qiuyue.

Su Qiuyue was overjoyed to see the two of them. She smiled and held their hands: "Wan Qing, Wei Yu, how are you?"

Lin Weiyu and Xie Wanqing looked at each other, wondering why the princess was acting strange today.

When Su Qiuyue saw this, she immediately realized that she had done something wrong in her excitement. She quickly stopped her smile, let go of their hands, and said, "Sit down, Qianhong, and serve tea to Wanqing and Weiyu."

Xie Wanqing and Lin Weiyu each sat in their own seats and started chatting. After a few words, a strange woman walked in.

This woman is slender and wears a rose-red skirt. She has a round face and looks cute and cute.

The woman smiled slightly, revealing two shallow dimples: "Tingting has met the princess."

Su Qiuyue smiled slightly and said: "Tingting, sit down."

Zhu Yingyue told her yesterday that Qiutingting was the youngest daughter of Qiu Zhufeng, the Minister of Rites, and was now Chu Feng's concubine.

Qiu Zhufeng and Chu Feng got close. He sent his youngest daughter to the palace in the hope that Chu Feng would one day seize the throne. Qiu Tingting would be named a concubine in the future, which would ensure the prosperity of his Qiu family for the rest of his life.

After Qiu Tingting greeted Xie Wanqing and Lin Weiyu, she sat down in her seat. She just took a sip of tea when she saw Shen Xianyun walking in in a hurry.

Shen Xianyun is the only daughter of Xing Anbo, who was once a powerful general on the battlefield and was awarded the title of earl by virtue of his military exploits.

This Shen Xianyun came from a general family. She had the dignity and calmness of a lady from a famous family, and the heroic appearance of a tiger girl from a general family. The two temperaments in her were not only unobtrusive, but actually appeared very natural, which made Su Qiuyue couldn't help but feel more I looked at her several times.

Su Qiuyue also noticed that Shen Xianyun was holding a silk flower in her hand, and she suddenly remembered that there was a similar silk flower in Zhu Yingyue's room.

After Shen Xianyun greeted Su Qiuyue, she angrily threw the silk flower in her hand into Qiu Tingting's hand.

Su Qiuyue and everyone were stunned by this sudden scene. What was going on.

Shen Xianyun sneered: "Qiu Tingting, don't use these things to irritate me. I don't lack this silk flower like you."

Qiu Tingting blinked her eyes and said in an innocent tone: "I don't know what sister means. I got a few silk flowers and wanted to give them to my sisters to share. Instead of thanking me, my sister complained. Didn't I do something wrong by giving you something? ?”
