Kite falling into red dust

Red Butterfly played the qin beside her, and sang the famous poem "Guanguan Jujiu, in the continent of the river" from "The Book of Songs". In the middle of the water..."

The two were immediately immersed in her clear and mellow singing voice, and were amazed by her versatility.

After a song, the two hurriedly greeted her to take a break and have some wine and food.During the dinner, the three of them chatted freely, Hongdie's words were always appropriate and she had her own unique insights.

Inadvertently talking about the theft case at the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, she just said lightly: "A poor and humble person like Hongdie will not have such troubles. It can be seen that rich people are not always happier than ordinary people. .”

And Hong Yuan has been sitting on the sidelines, eating and drinking, without saying a word.

After drinking for three rounds, both Murong Mingyu and Xiao Langhao were a little tipsy.Hongdie said: "Please listen to Hongdie's new song." "Okay!" Xiao Langhao immediately replied enthusiastically.

As the zither sounded, Hong Yuan, who had drank a few cups of peach blossom wine, suddenly stood up, shook the hem of her clothes, and danced under the peach tree.

When the spring breeze hits, the peach blossoms fall one after another.

The red kite danced in the rain of flowers all over the sky.Its dancing posture is as graceful as a frightened bird, like a swimming dragon.Those bright eyes were full of longing for flying and freedom.

Murong Mingyu watched his dance, and suddenly felt a little afraid that he would really ride the spring breeze up to the blue sky, catch the stars and embrace the moon.

He was dressed in plain clothes, and in the peach forest, against the backdrop of the delicate and beautiful peach blossoms, not only did he not lose his color, but on the contrary, he was a bit more fresh and pure.

Hongdie's figure, appearance and singing voice are all beautiful, and she is versatile, elegant and generous in conversation and manner. Although she has a disability, it is difficult for any man not to be tempted when he sees her.Since meeting, Xiao Langhao's gaze has almost never left her body.

But at this moment, the Crown Prince of Yan Kingdom, Murong Mingyu, only sees that 16-year-old boy, Hong Yuan.

Hongdie and Hongyuan lived in a separate courtyard in the Prince's Mansion of the East Palace.

As soon as they entered the splendid hall, they saw a table covered with their rewards—silk and satin, fine vessels, and precious jewels.Murong Mingyu said from the side: "These are just my thoughts. I hope you two can do your best to bring joy to your father. After the matter is completed, there will be a big thank you."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Hong Die smiled lightly, and bowed her body to express her gratitude.He expected Hong Yuan to say something to him, or to smile, but he just saluted decently, without extra words or expressions.

From then on, Hongdie and Hongyuan rehearsed in the mansion every day, and they never stepped out of the other courtyard where they lived.Murong Mingyu also tried his best not to disturb them, but told the servants in the mansion that no matter what they wanted, they should try their best to satisfy them, and they don't need to report to him.

During this period, the second major theft occurred this month in Beijing.The king's younger brother was robbed from Pinglehou's mansion, and many treasures were stolen. The list is as follows: a jade ruyi, a rhinoceros horn cup, a string of pearl necklaces, three cat's eyes, an amber bracelet, and gold 20 taels.

Jingzhao Mansion, which was in charge of investigating the case, found a cinnabar painting of a flying eagle pattern on the wall of Pinglehou Mansion, and an identical pattern was also found in the Mansion of Wei Benrong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

"It's unreasonable!" Murong Ruiyan, king of Yan Kingdom, angrily threw the memorial to the ground, "This thief is really daring!" Murong Ruiyan will soon turn 50 years old, and he is still in good shape, with not much gray hair. Root, traces of his youthful handsomeness can still be seen from that face.

Under the steps stood Prime Minister Sima Shangde, Jingzhao Yin Gu Meng, and Crown Prince Murong Mingyu.Just listen to Gu Mengdao: "The time of the two cases was only seven days apart, the modus operandi is the same, the stolen items also have the same characteristics: a lot of jewelry, a small amount of gold and silver, overall the weight is not very heavy, easy to carry, but priceless. Moreover, the same patterns appeared at the two crime scenes, which may have been left by the thieves to provoke us. Based on the above, Wei Chen speculates that this is likely to be a premeditated serial theft."

"I'm afraid it's not just that," Sima Shangde said. "First the court ordered the officials, then the prince. At this time, it's just at the time of the king's birthday banquet. This thief seems to intend to provoke the court and has the intention of treason. Therefore, I suggest that you must Thoroughly investigate the case and find out the real culprit behind the scenes."

Murong Mingyu listened to their analysis quietly, and then said: "My lord, my son is willing to take orders to investigate this case with Mr. Gu and arrest the bandits." Murong Ruiyan thought for a while, and said: "That's how it is. I hope the crown prince and Gu Qing can arrest this daring thief as soon as possible." "I obey the order!" "I obey the order!"

Back at the Prince's Mansion, Mo Yuan immediately reported to Murong Mingyu: "My subordinates have heard that many orphans, widows, and wandering refugees in the streets and alleys of Tianjing have received food and silver from unknown people." He paused After a while, he asked again: "Does your Highness think that this matter is related to the two recent theft cases that happened in the Mansion of Ping Lehou, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry?" Murong Mingyu pondered for a moment, and said: "I can't say for sure, but Ben Gong always feels that the series of bizarre events that happened in the capital recently are not accidental."

"Your Highness!" The guard at the door suddenly ran in and reported: "The Sixth Highness, please see Your Highness!" Murong Mingyu's expression changed suddenly.There was a trace of worry between Mo Yuan's brows, and he looked at him.He sighed imperceptibly, and said, "Please come in."

"My brother, see Brother Wang!" "Ming Shuo is free, please sit down!" The prince in front of him, the sixth son of the king, has a heroic face with two flying eyebrows. The eyes of the twin stars are piercing, and there is a compelling arrogance between the brows. The corners of the mouth are always slightly raised, showing a smile of contempt or pride. The wheat-colored skin not only did not take away half of his handsomeness, but made him lose his childishness, making him appear more heroic.

Murong Mingyu looked at this brother who had grown into a man and was the most clingy to him, with mixed feelings in his heart, the urge to hug him hard and punch him hard came to his heart at the same time.

Fortunately, in the past three years after he was established as the crown prince, the power struggles with many ministers in the court have made him practice the ability to hide his emotions and anger, so he just smiled faintly and said: "Ming Shuo is When did you return to Beijing, why didn't Brother Wang get any news?"

"It will be the father's birthday soon, and the sons and servants will of course come back to celebrate the father's birthday." Murong Mingshuo raised his eyebrows, and a sharp flash of light flashed in his eyes, "Don't you think that brother Wang doesn't like my sons coming back?"

"Where is this? You have been away from Beijing for three years. Brother Wang misses you very much. He only hates that the border is so far away that you and I cannot see each other often."

Murong Mingshuo raised the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes, "That's good, I also miss Brother Wang very much, if Brother Wang doesn't want to see my brother, then I will die of grief."

Murong Mingyu returned a calm smile and said: "Mingshuo is paranoid, so how long can Mingshuo stay in Beijing when he comes back this time?"

"It's hard to say for the time being, but I hope that I can spend a few more days with my father, mother and brother, I'm afraid the brother will find my brother annoying!"

"How is it possible? Brother Wang is too happy!"

Murong Mingshuo stared at him with piercing eyes, and said word by word: "Brother Wang must keep his word, when the time comes, brother Chen will often come to play with Brother Wang, Brother Wang must not get bored."
