Several people walked out of Qingfeng Pavilion together. Yan Qing led the carriage, but Yun Ting did not come along.
Su Lingyue was about to walk towards Jiang Siqi to talk to him about something.
Jiang Siqi looked at Xiao Yu. His expression was cold and he exuded a cold aura. He seemed to be in a very bad mood!
Without caring about Su Lingyue, he hurriedly bowed to Xiao Yu and said, "Your Majesty, I have something else to do. I'll leave first!"
Before Su Lingyue called him, he whipped the horse and drove away quickly.
As for the matter of a woman disguising herself as a man and being caught by her husband in a brothel, let my cousin handle it herself. The prince can't afford to offend him.
Su Lingyue was still confused as she watched Jiang Siqi leave in a hurry, when she heard Xiao Yu speak coldly.
"Su Lingyue, get in the car!"
It's a commanding tone.
Su Lingyue heard the dissatisfaction in Xiao Yu's tone, and without lingering any longer, she followed Xiao Yu into the carriage.
Xiao Yu sat in the main seat. Su Lingyue sat down nervously at the side and the carriage started moving.
"Su Lingyue, how do you explain?"
Su Lingyue turned her head to look at Xiao Yu, his deep eyes staring at her coldly, examining her, as if he wanted to see through her.
Su Lingyue didn't expect to meet Xiao Yu in the brothel today. Did he think that he was following him?
Su Lingyue's heart tightened. This needed to be explained clearly, so as to avoid having a hard time in the mansion in the future.
"Your Majesty, my cousin and I came here to do something. We definitely didn't come here to follow you. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will keep my mouth shut."
Xiao Yu understood what Su Lingyue meant. She thought he was here to have fun!
Xiao Yu's face darkened, and he did not explain, but said coldly: "What I want to ask is why you and Jiang Siqi were involved in the murder case?"
Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu and was shocked. How did he know that?
Xiao Yu kept staring at her, with no intention of letting her go!
Su Lingyue's eyes darkened. Since she had cooperated with Xiao Yu, he was half her own, so it would be okay to tell him now.
This will also prevent the two of them from adding more suspicion and causing greater misunderstandings.
She looked at Xiao Yu and explained, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I didn't do anything illegal. I just heard about the murder today, so I asked my cousin to tie up a servant and put him in the cabinet in the room to let the truth of the case come to light."
Xiao Yu still frowned and looked at Su Lingyue, as if he wanted to say something, looking very conflicted.
After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Take off your beard and eyebrows and explain the matter clearly."
Su Lingyue was stunned. Xiao Yu had been staring at her. Was he looking at her beard and eyebrows?
"Ah."
Su Lingyue responded and took off his eyebrows and beard.
"I overheard that someone wanted to use Lord Fang's son to remove him from his position as Minister of Personnel."
"He is a good official. I couldn't bear it, so I called my cousin over. Before Liu Yi, the son of Liu Zhun, the Minister of Personnel, killed the brothel girl, I had my cousin tie up a servant and put him in the cabinet to witness the killing process, thus clearing Fang Bingwen's name."
"This is what happened. I hope Your Majesty can help me keep it a secret."
"Why didn't you save that brothel girl?"
Most people would prioritize saving lives, but she is a rare example.
Xiao Yu looked at her calmly with his deep eyes, his tone no longer as cold as before, but more inquiring.
Su Lingyue thought for a moment and said, "It's a pity that the woman's life died, but if she was saved, Liu Yi wouldn't be convicted. He might harm more people in the future. How can such a person hold a high position? Choose the lesser of two evils."
Xiao Yu curled his lips and said lightly: "You are sober."
Xiao Yu was born handsome, with handsome eyebrows and deep eyes. Except for his pale face due to illness, he usually had a cold face and gave people a feeling of keeping away from strangers.
At this moment, the frost on his face was gone, his expression was indifferent, and there was a hint of smile, which made Su Lingyue stunned.
Su Lingyue's already bright and beautiful face was even more rosy, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water as she stared at Xiao Yu in a daze.
Xiao Yu was stunned when he saw Su Lingyue's cheeks gradually turning red and her autumn-water eyes.
"Princess, have you seen enough?" His tone was calm but with a hint of playfulness.
"Ah."
Su Lingyue was brought back to her senses by Xiao Yu's words. Her ears felt hot and she quickly turned her head forward, not looking at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu looked at the flustered Su Lingyue, and a smile appeared on his lips that he didn't even notice.
