Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

"I have had some contact with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Although I don't know him very well, I can see his preferences. He is a very polite person. He attaches great importance to the distinction between the noble and the humble. He will never befriend a maid."

"Miss, you are right. A man as noble as the Crown Prince can get any girl he wants. How can he care about a maid?"

"Hey."

Xu Xingyin sighed and said again.

"But Danying is indeed well-groomed and capable. It would be a bit too inhumane to bring her into the palace until she is 25 years old. I thought that I should send her to my grandmother before I get married. My grandmother is a kind person and will take good care of her."

Danying, who was eavesdropping outside, was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She had originally thought of currying favor with Xu Xingyin today so that she could serve her and enter the palace with her in the future.

But now Xu Xingyin just threw her into the hands of the old lady, and even said that it was for her own good?

Pooh!

I’m afraid he’s afraid that her beauty will win the favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

In that case, Xu Xingyin should not blame her!

Thinking of this, Danying turned around and ran outside.

As soon as Danying left, the two people in the room stopped their conversation. Xu Xingyin yawned boredly and waved at Dangui.

"Send someone to follow her and see which master she went to see."

"Yes, ma'am."

……

Xu Xingyin had just finished dinner when the maid who was supposed to reply came and said that she saw Danying enter the room of the fourth lady Xu Wanlin.

Xu Wanlin, this is indeed an expected answer.

Xu Xingyin stepped back, propped up his chin and thought for a while. When he thought about it carefully, it was really terrifying.

Looking back carefully, there were several incidents in which Xu Xingyin suffered great losses. On the surface, they were all caused by others targeting him, but Xu Wanlin's hand was probably involved!

At the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Xu Wanmian suffered from unbearable abdominal pain and pushed himself up to write a poem.

Although the latter was definitely Xu Wanmian's idea, the former was probably not a coincidence!

Xu Wanmian was a person who never suffered losses easily, so it was quite reasonable for him to take advantage of his illness to embarrass Xu Xingyin.

The same thing happened at Xiao Lu's tea-tasting party. Xu Wanjie's condition was obviously not right that day. She might have been drugged.

Therefore, Xu Wanjie, who has never been considered to be a courageous person, would be so cruel as to push herself into the water.

When Zhuangzi caught fire, almost everyone was killed in the fire. She risked her life, but that was not her fault...

If you think about it carefully, it is always like this every time. The one who suffers is always the evil person who rushes to the front, and the one who suffers the loss is yourself.

Xu Wanmian made his plans calmly and played a group of people around in his applause!

"The fourth young lady is young, but her mind is so deep, calculating people's hearts and strategizing, and she has gotten away with it!"

Dan Gui had obviously come to her senses and said angrily, "Miss, we can't just let this go."

"Of course, the bait has been cast, and all that remains is to wait patiently."

Xu Xingyin lowered his eyes and chuckled, "Tell the doorman that I will be leaving the house tomorrow."

"Yes, ma'am."

Therefore, Xu Xingyin, who had been feeling unwell for a few days, claimed the next day that he felt better and took his personal maid to go out and relax.

As soon as he walked out of Chenguang Courtyard, Xu Xingyin "accidentally met" many people who had been turned away when they went to visit him in the past few days.

There was no trace of the previous indifference on the smiling faces. Xu Xingyin boasted that he had seen many such faces since childhood and was able to handle them well.

Dan Feng was not so happy. As soon as everyone left, he started grumbling to Xu Xingyin in dissatisfaction.

"This really opened my eyes. A few days ago, I was still saying that our Chenguang Courtyard was in trouble because we were short of people, and I was deducting our food. Now, I want to stuff all the delicious food in. It would be even better if I could stuff some smart maids and old women in to enjoy the good life with us. I really change my mind faster than turning the pages of a book!"

Xu Xingyin smiled and glared at Danfeng.

"Girl, you speak without any taboos."

"This servant is not worthy of you, young lady."

Dan Feng said this and helped Xu Xingyin out the door.

"If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, my young lady would have been bullied to death by these people sooner or later! Fortunately, the imperial decree has been issued now, who dares to make things difficult for you? To me, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really treats my young lady well! He can't bear to see you suffer the slightest injustice, and he takes the initiative to give you face. Such a good man is hard to find even with a lantern. Being able to marry him shows that our young lady is very lucky!"

Xu Xingyin accepted Jing Zhichen's favor, so naturally he wouldn't say anything bad about him and just nodded.

"Your Highness is naturally good."

After saying this, the master and servant got into the carriage together.

No one noticed that in the alley beside Duke Xu's mansion, the tall figure of a man paused.

The rabbit candy in his hand fell to the ground and smashed into pieces.

The man must have been traveling for a long time, and he looked dusty and exhausted, and it was hard to tell whether he was handsome or ugly. His lips were as dry as a cracked field because he had not had any water for a long time.

His eyes were fixed on the tightly closed door of the Duke's Mansion, and his ears seemed to still be filled with the little girl's words, "Of course His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is fine."

The child who ran by recklessly bumped into the man, and the man who had practiced martial arts for many years was almost knocked to the ground by the three-year-old child.

The sight of him leaning against the wall with his lifeless eyes frightened the child so much that he burst into tears.

The sharp crying gave Lu Xu a headache. He growled in a hoarse voice like gravel:

"Shut up!"

The child was so frightened that he stopped crying and tried to hold back his tears while apologizing to Lu Xu in a wronged manner.

Lu Xu closed his eyes and came back to his senses. He took the lantern off the horse's back and handed it to the child.

"Stop crying," he said.

"Thank you, brother."

Children don't bear grudges. After receiving the lanterns, they thanked Lu Xu happily and asked:

"Brother, do you know anyone from this family? My mother said that the future Crown Princess lives in this house!"

The three words "Crown Princess" were like a sharp blade piercing into Lu Xu's heart. The pain was sharp.

"She...when did it happen?"

"Just a few days ago, many adults in brocade robes came and took the abbot's whisk. They looked very impressive. They also gave a lot of rewards. My mother said it was worth a lot of money!"

Is it just a matter of a few days?

Lu Xu smiled bitterly and sighed softly:

"I missed more than just a few days."

The children probably didn't understand what was said. They just stared at the bag of candies that Lu Xu hung on the horse, unable to take their eyes away.

Lu Xu reached out and handed the bag of candies to the child. The child was not greedy and only grabbed a few from the bag before handing the bag back to Lu Xu. However, Lu Xu had no intention of taking it.

The child scratched his head in confusion, "You don't want it anymore?"

"She doesn't want them anymore. I don't want the lanterns or the bunny candies, and I don't want them either..."

The tall man squatted down, and his eyes, which were once as gentle as a pool of spring water, had receded, leaving only a dull and wooden look.

“She doesn’t want any more.”
