But Cui Yingying, who was just wandering around, didn't notice this at all. She was walking around behind the rockery with her waist low, protecting the little cub in her arms.

The original owner knew the old house very well, and it was easy to get rid of these people.

"Brother! I'll make you cry later, and you'll cry, you know?" After a while, Cui Yingying poked her head out of the cellar with her little boy in her arms.

Cui Shaoyuan is also well-behaved. He eats and drinks enough every day, never cries or makes trouble, and his big eyes blink as if he can understand her words.

Speaking of which, the stone well is located just opposite the kitchen, and there is a cellar in the kitchen, which is specially used to store some ingredients to ensure freshness. Later, when the old man of the Cui family was telling fortunes, a gentleman said that the cellar had bad feng shui and that he had to dig deeper. One dig.

This dig led directly to a large locust tree that had long since died outside the old house.

The two of them poked their heads out furtively, one big and one small, staring at the group of people outside like curious babies.

The distance was a bit far and it was hard to see who was there.

Cui Yonggui raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his head, observing the ancestor's face from time to time.

Your Majesty has always valued his concubine brother, but something happened to Cui Yingying not long after his death. Now even Cui Shaoyuan is nowhere to be found. If the investigation continues, the Cui family will definitely not be able to survive.

Feeling anxious in his heart, he stepped forward bravely and tried to stop Xiao Su from checking, "Your Highness, why don't you rest nearby. It's so gloomy here that there may be some evil energy that has hit His Royal Highness's noble body."

"You're here all alone. If you don't take a look, wouldn't it be a waste of time?" The man's voice was very nice, like the breeze blowing from the deep valley, but if you listened carefully, it seemed that there was a chill hidden in it that was not easy to detect.

Cui Yonggui said in embarrassment: "This... this is also the case with lower officials..."

"Master Cui, what is your intention of repeatedly stopping His Highness from investigating the case?" Tang Yang stepped forward to isolate the person with the sword in his hand, and asked word by word.

"I don't dare, your highness knows everything." Cui Yonggui was so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.

Xiao Su walked towards the stone well without squinting. The people inside were still fishing. The water was not deep and very turbid. It was difficult to see clearly under the hot sunlight. The left and right sides were no bigger than a fart, so why bother to fish out a person so hard.

"Master Cui, the body is really missing. It seems that there is a lot of resentment!" He looked back and looked at the other party meaningfully, "Master Cui, Master Cui, this Cui Yingying is also the orphan of General Cui after all. General Cui is here for me. After Da Chu died on the battlefield, but your Cui family treated their loyal ministers like this, if my father finds out, I'm afraid the Cui family's lintel will not be saved, right?"

It was obviously a sunny day and the prince's tone was very gentle, but Cui Yonggui felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His head hit the ground hard and he kept kowtowing, "Your Highness is aware of it. This official is really unaware! This child Yingying She was disobedient to discipline and often went out. That day the Wei family broke off the engagement, and the official thought she was in a bad mood so she went out to relax, not knowing that the child had jumped into a well!"

He cried so miserably, as if he was the victim.

The Duke of Wei, who had been silent next to him, was also anxious. He quickly raised his hands and said, "Your Highness, this matter has nothing to do with my Wei family!"

"Uncle!" Xiao Su glanced sideways at him, "It is really against morality for the Wei family to cross the river and demolish the bridge. You asked your father for the original engagement in the court, and your father appointed it, even if you want to break off the engagement. , do we also need to ask my father’s opinion?”

"You and the Cui family just did it quietly. Don't you think this is bullying an orphan girl?"

He spoke with a cadence and a sad tone, which made the two people present feel embarrassed and ashamed.

Cui Yingying, who was at the entrance of the cellar where the kitchen was located, was so angry that she was so angry that Cui Yonggui had been stabbed a thousand times, yet she was still ruining her reputation here.

She touched Cui Shaoyuan's face with indignation. There was a candy stuck in the little boy's hand and he licked it vigorously. She snatched the candy away with a serious expression, "Cry now."

"Wow wow wow!"

Soon enough, the baby's cry suddenly sounded, startling everyone present.

Cui Yingying cleared her throat and said in a faint tone, "Uncle, why are you here? Yingying has had such a hard time waiting for you!"

"Ghost! There is a ghost!"

The woman's moans and the baby's cries ebbed and flowed with each other, making Cui Yonggui turn pale with fright. Even Liang Shangshu, who had been staying away from the incident, shivered and hid behind several guards.

"This, this, this...this is too evil."

The scene was in chaos, and the guards were already on the verge of retreating. The people who were fishing in the stone well were all so frightened that their hands and feet were weak. They struggled to crawl out of it, and immediately ran away without saying a word. gone.

Xiao Su glanced at the frightened people, turned his eyes to the dilapidated kitchen, narrowed his eyes into a line, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Tang Yang followed His Highness's gaze and immediately understood that someone was pretending to be a ghost. How could these people not notice it if they didn't have a guilty conscience?

The master and servant kept silent in a tacit agreement.

Xiao Su, who was watching the excitement, turned his head to Cui Yonggui and said, "Master Cui, what's going on? Where did the ghost come from?"

"Yes! Mr. Cui, Duke Wei, what are you afraid of? This is a clear day." Tang Yang said cooperatively.

Several people's eyes widened.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, didn't you hear anyone crying or talking?" Cui Yonggui looked at him in disbelief.

What's going on with these two people? Didn't you hear?

Xiao Su's eyes were sincere, "You really didn't hear anything!"

Cui Yonggui was even more frightened now and fainted from fear.

The Duke of Wei next to him also had his legs trembling, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, how about we end here today, my dear sir, my dear sir, will you go back first?"

Xiao Su clicked his tongue, "Uncle, isn't this bad? Gu Ke still doesn't understand anything!"

"Uncle Wei, why didn't you come with the book feast today! Why didn't he come to see me! I think he was thinking so hard!"

Before Wei Guogong could sneak away with his people, the voice had already called him.

This immediately scared people away. A group of guards supported the weak-legged and pale-faced Duke of Wei and fled in a hurry. Cui Yonggui, who had fainted on the ground, was also taken away by the Cui family.

Liang Shangshu was quite bold. His teeth were chattering and his scalp was numb. He strangled his neck and stepped forward: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why don't we go back?"

This place was so evil, he was afraid that he would end up here if he didn't leave.

Xiao Su smiled slightly, as if he was easy to talk to, "Then there will be Minister Lao Liang."

After the person left, Cui Yingying in the kitchen returned the candy to Xiao Zaizi and came out of the cellar with the person in her arms.

Fortunately for these cowards, she thought the other party would come in to search, so she was ready to run away at any moment.

Cui Shaoyuan stopped crying, but tears were covering his face.

She held the person in her arms and stuck her head out, glanced around outside, held Cui Shaoyuan's little paw, and said cautiously: "It's safe, you can go out."

There was a lot of dirt on the girl's white clothes. After ensuring that everyone had left, she took Cui Shaoyuan to the abandoned lotus pond and squatted to wash his hands. She put the child next to her and bent down to wash her skirt.

He was still muttering, "This female ghost is not easy to act! But the public opinion is enough, just wait a few more days."

She can use the topic to her advantage.

Cui Shaoyuan sat obediently on the lawn, looking around curiously. The child's watery eyes just met the peach blossom eyes of the man not far away.

The girl Tang Yang squatted beside the lotus pond, puzzled and said: "Your Highness, don't you plan to take the person back to see His Majesty?"

"Hasn't she finished her performance yet?" Xiao Su asked seriously.

Tang Yang: "..." You haven't finished watching the fun yet!

The two of them were so frightened today that they were afraid they would become seriously ill after they returned.
