Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again
Chapter 24 Grand Princess's Mansion
Xu Chaoge had originally planned to go together, but when he saw Xu Wanmian almost fall down because he had been kneeling for too long, he couldn't help but stay.
He personally helped Xu Wanmian up.
Xu Wanmian smiled gently upon seeing this, "Thank you, fifth brother."
"Why do you have to be so polite to me, Third Sister?"
Xu Chaoge and Xu Wanmian left Funing Courtyard together. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but speak.
"Thank you, Third Sister, for pleading for Seventh Sister today. Mother and Seventh Sister were just a little impatient. They didn't mean to make things difficult for Third Sister. I hope Third Sister won't blame me."
Xu Wanmian lowered his head slightly, without a trace of blame in his eyes.
"What are you talking about, Fifth Brother? Mother is the elder and Seventh Sister is the younger sister, how can I bother with them? Besides, even if Mother really makes things difficult for me, I will have the omnipotent Fifth Brother to protect me, right?"
Xu Chaoge was amused by Xu Wanmian's exaggerated tone, and the heavy expression on his face just now disappeared.
"Yes, Third Sister is such a good woman, she is worthy of my protection."
"Fifth brother still loves me the most."
Xu Xingyin, who was ordered by Chen to turn back to look for someone, felt a sudden pain in his teeth when he saw the warm sister-brother relationship between the two people in front of him.
After the toothache was over, I felt a little jealous again.
It turns out that Xu Chaoge would be so obedient to someone...
Xu Xingyin lowered his eyes and did not go forward to disturb the scene of deep affection between the sister and brother. He walked back to Zhilan Courtyard quickly and consciously.
Humph, isn’t he just a stupid brother who has been deceived by others without even realizing it?
She doesn't want it anymore!
It has to be said that the scene of Xu Chaoge and Xu Wanmian being together happily was like a needle that pierced Xu Xingyin's heart and could not be shaken off.
When Xu Xingyin tossed and turned in bed for the 32nd time, he slapped the bedstring in angrily and sat up.
Pooh!
Xu Xingyin's things have always been coveted by others. When has she ever given them up?
Want her brother?
It also depends on whether you have the ability to do so!
Dangui, who was resting outside, ran into the room in a daze and asked with concern.
"Miss, are you dreaming?"
"No. Dangui, tomorrow you go to the main room and remind your aunt, and say..."
In the darkness, the little girl's almond eyes were bright and clear, as if they were filled with stars. "If we can't find out where to start, why don't we start by finding out why the second sister went out?"
"Yes, ma'am."
The next day, Xu Xingyin went out openly under the pretext of going out to see a doctor.
When she knocked on Lu Xu's door, Lu Xu rubbed his eyes for a long time without coming back to his senses.
Before Xu Xingyin could speak, the door slammed and almost hit her in the face.
It was half an incense stick later when the guy opened the door again.
He changed into a cobalt blue suit, tied a jade belt around his waist, wore a jeweled silver crown on his head, and held a jade folding fan in his hand.
If you look at this man alone, he can truly be described as dashing and handsome.
"how?"
The man met Xu Xingyin's gaze, raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"You are really dressed up today..."
Xu Xingyin paused, and even his eyebrows showed a bit of a teasing smile, "How gorgeous!"
Lu Xu straightened his face when he heard this. "Xu Xingyin, have you ever been to school? Is "showy" used to describe men? Huh?"
Xu Xingyin was too lazy to argue with Lu Xu. He climbed onto the carriage using his hands and feet, ignoring the man's angry questioning.
"Let's go! Don't miss the time."
……
Today, they should also visit the other protagonist of the case——
The eldest princess.
The princess's mansion was built in the land-scarce north city, covering a vast area and heavily guarded.
After handing over their business cards, the two were led inside by the servants. However, before they even reached the front hall, they were frightened out of their wits by a whip without any reason.
The long whip was heading straight for Xu Xingyin's face, breaking through the air. He could feel the sharp wind before the whip even arrived.
Fortunately, Lu Xu had practiced martial arts since he was young, and he quickly rushed to the front of Xu Xing's invisible body.
He stretched out his long arm to gather the folding fan and quickly wrapped it around the long whip of the person who came. He tightened his arm again and the person who came was pulled to the ground.
His heart was beating wildly and Xu Xingyin stared for a long time before he came to his senses.
Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the servant who was leading the way shout nervously.
"County Lord!"
The woman holding the long whip was not wearing a gauze skirt or shawl like ordinary girls, but a tight-sleeved outfit.
Her hair was tied up on top of her head like a man's, with only a simple silver hairpin pinned on it.
There is a small black mole at the end of his eyebrow. His facial features are not very good-looking, but he has a heroic air.
She looks domineering and willful, and you can tell at first glance that she is a very proud girl.
This... is actually the Grand Princess' only daughter, Princess Yongyi?
"I am not as skilled as the other party. I am the one who lost."
The girl called the county lady got up from the ground, threw away the whip in her hand, pointed at the two men and started scolding them.
"But this is the princess's residence, you can't run wild!"
This was probably the first time that Lu Xu had seen a girl who looked even less like a girl than Xu Xingyin. His eyebrows twitched and he felt a headache. After a pause, he put on a smile and walked forward to bow.
"I hope the county lady is well. We are naturally in awe of the Grand Princess, but we have to come and bother her because of our duty. I hope the county lady will not blame us."
"Duty? Is your duty to wrongly accuse good people?"
"County Lady, the right and wrong must be thoroughly investigated before a judgment can be made."
Hearing Xu Xingyin's frown and reply, Princess Yongyi began to sneer with a half-smile.
"This county lady doesn't know when the Jinyiwei started to accept women."
Lu Xu stepped forward to block Princess Yongyi's sight.
"County Lady, there are naturally no women in the Jinyiwei. But now there are only women in your family, and it is not appropriate for a man like me to visit rashly, so I asked Miss Seven of the Xu family to come with me."
The implication is that what you are trying to save is your face.
Originally Xu Xingyin was worried that Princess Yongyi would get even angrier after hearing this, but unexpectedly her eyes lit up, and she reached out to push Lu Xu away and ask Xu Xingyin.
"Are you the Seventh Young Lady of Duke Xu's Mansion? The granddaughter of the General Guarding the Nation?"
Xu Xingyin was somewhat confused by the question, but he still answered honestly.
"Exactly."
"Xu Xingyin, my name is Tian Tian, and I love your grandfather very much."
After saying this, Tian Tian seemed to feel that what she said was inappropriate, and quickly added.
"The master who taught me martial arts was General Zhennan's apprentice. I grew up listening to General Zhennan's stories. In my eyes, General Zhennan is a first-class hero!"
Xu Xingyin smiled when he heard this, but then felt a little bitter after smiling.
"If grandpa knew, he would be extremely pleased."
Seeing Xu Xingyin's face change slightly, Tian Tian finally realized that General Zhennan had passed away.
He scratched his neck uncomfortably and quickly changed the subject.
"Since Xu Xingyin is here, I am relieved. You just need to investigate."
"Thank you, Princess Yongyi."
"No need to be so polite, just call me Tian Tian!"
After saying this, Tian Tian seemed dissatisfied with her overly sweet name, "Just call me Yongyi!"
Xu Xingyin smiled, accepted Tian Tian's kindness, and said it after thinking about it.
"If Yongyi doesn't mind, you can also call me Jiaojiao."
Tian Tian smiled cheerfully, "Bright as the moon between clouds, what a good name!"
Xu Xingyin was too embarrassed to tell Tian Tian the actual origin of this name.
The word "Jiaojiao" in my name actually comes from "Jiaojiao Baiju".
That’s right, my grandfather even praised the little girl for being beautiful, saying that she was as beautiful as his pure white war horse…
Xu Xingyin smiled a little guilty and replied, "Yongyi, you are too kind."
Lu Xu, who had been standing aside and ignored for a long time, rolled his eyes silently.
He let the two women exchange pleasantries on their own, talked for a few words with the servant who led the way, and then went to the eldest princess.
