A Hint of Spring

Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

"Your Majesty, I have no clue yet, please give me some more time."

"I limit you to three days."

"Weichen~"

Lu Yan frowned deeply. He searched for several days and found no clues. Three days seemed too short.

"not enough time?"

"Yes!"

"Before the Qionglin banquet, do you know that there are many dreams in the night?"

As the emperor, the lord of the world, how could he tolerate the thorns around him, like a thorn in his throat!

"Your Majesty, do your best!"

"If you can't finish it, come with your head up!"

The emperor would kill people at every turn, he was too cruel, Lu Yan made up his mind, he wanted to take revenge.

Lu Yan bought a little eunuch with money to monitor Fei'er's every move at all times, no, finally something happened.Fei'er looked left and right, came to a hidden corner of the imperial garden, saw no one around, secretly pressed the small note under the stone slab.Lu Yan coughed lightly, which startled Fei'er.

"Xia, Master Xia, you, why are you here?"

Fei'er was bumped into by Lu Yan, stuttering and unable to speak.

"Should I be the official asking you? Under the slate, is there anything good for someone to watch?"

Lu Yan pretended to be serious, and the court lady Fei'er leaned back again and again until her back was on the rockery.The day before yesterday Lu Yan played both soft and hard ways, but Mayfair would not accept that.He purposely put his hands against the mountain wall, encircling Fei'er's body, with his face only a palm away from her.A handsome face widened in front of her eyes, causing Fei'er to feel hot, her neck was white and red, and she didn't know where to put her hands.

"Is it Mayfair?"

Lu Yan resorted to the beauty trick of not being a beautiful man, which seems to have played a big role.Fortunately, the other person is not a beloved woman, otherwise how can I have such a calm mind?

"Slave...is..."

"I suddenly found Fei'er, it's really attractive, why didn't I notice it before!"

Lu Yan intentionally blew in her ear, Fei'er bit her lip, her ears were so red that she almost fell on top of him.Lu Yan opened his hands, walked under the stone slab and took out the note, only then did Fei'er recover.

"During the eighth day of the lunar new year, Yiran Pavilion."

The big characters on the note have nothing to do with the case.

"Two days later? Planning to take advantage of the Qionglin Banquet to poison? Such a vicious heart, now that all the internal organs are found, what else can I say?"

"My servant has never poisoned me before, I am wronged, please return my servant's innocence!"

"How do you explain the eight words on the paper? Who are you instigating?"

Fei'er hesitated for a long time but couldn't answer, and was taken directly to Jinyue Palace by Lu Yan.After all, Concubine Jin was a maid close to her. Regardless of whether it was related to the murder of the prince, it would be unreasonable for her to deal with the maid in private. It would be most appropriate to hand it over to her superiors. At that time, I could also help Concubine Jin find out who was behind the scenes.

Seeing that Lu Yan brought Fei'er to Jinyue Palace, Concubine Jin was very surprised and trembled all over, maybe it was caused by anger.

"Your Majesty, I found the secret hidden characters of the palace maid Fei'er in the imperial garden."

"Your Majesty, save the servant girl."

Fei'er knelt all the way beside Concubine Jin, tugging at her dress, but Concubine Jin didn't respond at all.

"My lord, Fei'er is extremely suspicious about the matter of the prince. Considering that she is a maid of honor, it's not easy for me to deal with it privately. I'd better ask you to interrogate her personally."

"Fei'er, in vain of my trust in you, you dare to poison the prince, the crime is not light."

Fei'er raised her head and looked at Concubine Jin in surprise. She did everything for her with all her heart. It was because she was grateful for her kindness that she was not sent to other places in the palace, or even disappeared. Besides, Concubine Jin cared so much for her parents.Fei'er bowed her head silently when Concubine Jin made a sharp glance, how could she not understand Concubine Jin's meaning.

"Your Majesty, Master Xia, this matter was done by a servant girl."

"Why did you poison the prince?"

"Servant, servant is jealous, jealous of Concubine Jin being favored by His Majesty, but servant does not have the Sacred Heart, this servant just wants to poke her pain."

"Damn slave, fortunately the prince rescued you in time, otherwise your ten lives would not be enough to pay back."

"Your Majesty, please spare the servant, it's all because the servant was confused for a while, so he made such a murderous move."

Lu Yan didn't say a word, only the master and the servant talked from beginning to end, and the content inevitably made people suspicious.Lu Yan knew that there were many doubts, since she pleaded guilty, she can turn to the emperor.As for the ulterior secrets of Concubine Jin and Fei'er, I have no control over them.He wished that the royal family would become more chaotic, so that he could take advantage of the chaos to rescue his father.He is a good person, but it also depends on who he is right.

"Your Majesty, I think it's better to hand over to the emperor for a sentence, and the emperor is very concerned about this matter."

"I am the master of this matter. Master Xia has contributed a lot to catching the real culprit. I will also report your achievements to the emperor. Step down!"

Concubine Jin issued an order to evict guests, so Lu Yan had no choice but to leave. He was even more sure that there must be something wrong with this matter.Glancing at Fei'er who was kneeling on the ground, she was staring at Lu Yan with resentful eyes, until he walked out of the palace gate, he was very uncomfortable.The emperor Lao Tzu asked him to hand over the murderer within three days, two days have passed, only today's harvest, he is under great pressure.Although it is a bit inhumane to arrest someone to replace him, it is better than putting a knife on his own neck. People are always selfish, and he still has a lot of things to do.He finally didn't have to worry about his own life, so he felt sorry for Miss Fei'er and prayed for her in his heart.

Naturally, Lu Yan also reported this matter to the emperor, who was dubious and prepared to interrogate Fei'er himself tomorrow.Unexpectedly, the next day, it was reported that the palace maid Fei Er committed suicide in fear of crime, and everyone knew that the little prince was not sick, but poisoned.

"Your Majesty, Mayfair did hang herself, and the time of death is ugly."

The coroner reported the time to the emperor. The emperor squinted his eyes, looked at Fei'er who died peacefully, and dragged her autographed suicide note, as if he was thinking about something.

"Yongbang, what do you think about this?"

"Your Majesty, there is no sign of struggle on Fei'er's body. If he committed suicide, there must be marks on his neck."

Lu Yan walked to the corpse and checked the strangle marks on Cha Fei'er's neck. It was in the shape of an upside-down character. It can be concluded that there was no dispute with anyone before his death.It's hard to say whether he committed suicide, after all, he can make people dizzy first, and then make the illusion of suicide.He didn't need to tell the emperor about this, he didn't want to take the matter on himself.

"Well, now that she has pleaded guilty, the matter is over."

"Xia Yongbang, you have made another contribution. I will appoint you as a son-in-law, reward you with a thousand taels of gold, and give you a house in the son-in-law's mansion. We will hold a big wedding after the Qionglin banquet."

"Your majesty, my humble minister..."

When Lu Yan heard about this reward, he instantly petrified, he didn't want to marry the princess, he didn't want to be a son-in-law, he should have asked the emperor to marry him and Xia Baisu.

"Why? Don't you want to? Qi'er is the treasure in my palm. Most people are still unwilling to entrust it to me. This matter is settled like this. There is no need to say more. The celestial master has measured the fifteenth day of this month, which is a good day. When the time comes, you will prepare Be my son-in-law. I will give you a one-month holiday and you don't have to go to court. It's good to prepare for these days, and I will personally arrange other matters."

"To tell you the truth, your majesty is married, your majesty has favored you, your majesty is grateful, please take back your order."

"true?"

"Your Majesty, what I said is indeed true."

"Well, Xia Yongbang, Xia Shan, you dare to deceive me, and you will be charged with deceiving the king! Do you think I really don't know your details? Do you want me to tell you?"

The emperor jumped up against the case, Lu Yan hurriedly knelt down when he saw this, and the emperor was already furious when he raised his eyes.The emperor knows him to the bottom, so does he know that he is Lu Yan? If he knew, he would not call him Xia Shan!

"Xia Shan, when he was in Yongzhou, he worked as a waiter for someone. He never married a wife, but he had been in contact with Xia Zuoling from time to time. Xia Zuoling, he has a good life. Maybe my princes will like it!"

Although the emperor said that he was obsessed with medicine and stones, the city that the emperor should have was not lost at all, so he threatened Lu Yan to submit.

"The humble minister is guilty, please punish the emperor."

"Punishment will be waived, as long as you marry Qi'er, although she is unruly and willful, but pure in nature, I will give her the best things in the world!"

"Your majesty, this humble minister is just a mere commoner, and I don't think I'm worthy of a golden branch or jade leaf."
