Chapter 703 Seeing that the Other Party Gave in, He Started to Become Promiscuous Again.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough!" Eunuch Hang deliberately coughed in succession, as if he wanted to cough out his lungs.
Xiang Yi glanced at Eunuch Hang, and then quickly turned his eyes back to Liu Wei. Looking at Liu Wei's livid face, his smile became more and more wanton.
Liu Wei tried her best to restrain herself, suppressing the anger in her heart, and looked at Xiang Yi with squinted eyes, looking at the other person's flamboyant smile, her fingers digging into the gaps in the armrests of the wooden chair.
Eunuch Hang saw that things were about to break out and seemed to be difficult to deal with. He quickly stood up, stood in front of Liu Wei, and said pleasantly: "Master Liu, it's getting late. Why don't we go out and take a look? We're just sitting here. It’s not an option, if you go out for a walk, you might meet the murderer.”
Liu Wei looked at Eunuch Hang with cold eyes.
Eunuch Hang hurriedly squeezed out two more smiles, but no matter how he looked at them, his smile was very forced.
Xiang Yi leaned back on the armchair. His line of sight was blocked. He couldn't see Liu Wei's angry and resentful face. He was not in a hurry. He just sat there leisurely and said with a leisurely smile: "If you go out You can meet the murderer just around the corner. I'm afraid it's too easy to investigate the case. Besides, Mr. Liu is fair and elegant. You want Mr. Liu with such a weak body to confront the murderer head-on. Mr. Hang, are you sure you can't do it? Are you bullying our Lord Liu? Tell the Zajia family that since Eunuch Hang wants to go, he can go alone. There are still a few couples here in the Zajia family who just want to spend some time with Lord Liu. What do you think, Lord Liu? "
They don't want to talk to you at all, and they want to make you look stupid!
Eunuch Hang secretly glared at Xiang Yi, thinking that you were the one causing trouble. Otherwise, who would be willing to wander around in the garden in this cold weather.
But obviously, if they continue to stay in the same space, there will definitely be trouble.
I don’t know if Eunuch Xiang had been drinking tonight, but he kept talking nonsense. Where has his usual poise and decorum gone? Why did he seem to be a different person overnight?
Eunuch Hang frowned secretly and had a splitting headache. He continued to look at Liu Wei, fearing that Liu Wei would get angry.
Liu Wei was not as serious as Eunuch Hang thought, but Liu Wei also felt that something was particularly wrong with Xiang Yi tonight. Although the two of them didn't get along well last time and had a rift, they could get over it in face of face. How could this happen? After the first meeting, it turned out like this?
Even if he wanted to do something to interfere with her solving the case tonight, Father-in-law Xiang would not use such clumsy means. What good would it do to him to provoke her?
Or, is this a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain?
Liu Wei fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Liu Wei didn't want to go out, Eunuch Hang had no choice but to sit back, but he stared at Xiang Yi warily, fearing that Eunuch Xiang would say something offensive again.
Xiang Yi lived up to expectations. Seeing that the other party gave in, he started to indulge again: "Actually, it's not a bad idea to go out for a walk. If you can invite Mr. Liu to go with you, we can spend time with you and me in front of flowers and under the moon. Come and think about it, it will have a unique flavor."
"Eunuch Xiang!" It was Eunuch Hang who spoke this time.
Eunuch Hang's eyes widened, he stared at Eunuch Xiang disapprovingly, and warned: "Master Liu is an official of the imperial court. My father-in-law is frivolous and dissolute, so aren't you afraid of embarrassing the concubine?"
Xiang Yi squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Wei teasingly. He turned away slightly and moved it to Eunuch Hang. Then he sneered and lowered his voice: "How about the concubine? I don't need to worry about Eunuch Hang. As for How is the miscellaneous family? It's not your turn to ask about it."
"You..." The other party's words were completely disrespectful to him, and Eunuch Hang was also angry.
Seeing the quarrel between the two of them, right before their eyes, a woman's scream suddenly sounded outside: "Ah——"
The sharp scream made the three people in the room stunned at the same time.
Liu Wei stood up suddenly and walked out directly.
Eunuch Hang glanced at Xiang Yi and followed him out.
Xiang Yi, on the other hand, didn't seem to care. He sat there indifferently, with his eyes turned to the door. But his focus didn't seem to be on the horrifying screams, but on someone walking away in a hurry. slender back.
Looking at the disappearing white figure, a playful smile appeared on Xiang Yi's face, and the shallow arc at the corner of his mouth had not changed for a long time.
After Liu Wei rushed out, he also found that Xiang Yi did not follow him.
Taking a breath, Liu Wei became more convinced of the guess in her heart, and said to Mr. Hang: "Send someone to keep an eye on Xiang Yi. He must not be allowed to leave without authorization."
Eunuch Hang didn't know what Liu Wei wanted to do, but seeing Liu Wei's solemn instructions, he agreed, turned around, and ordered two of his trusted aides to go back and keep watch.
The layout of Mengxiang Palace is not large. It is more solemn than Puxiang Palace and more grand than Suixiang Palace. It is also the residence of the princess, but it is simple and simple, which is better than the courtyard of a wealthy lady.
Not only is the place small, but the road is rugged.
Liu Wei and others walked for a while before they saw a bright light ahead.
It was the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on patrol who found the screaming woman.
Liu Wei walked over and saw a weak and little palace maid, squatting on the ground, her head buried between her arms, crying and breaking down.
Liu Wei frowned, leaned forward and asked, "Speak! What happened?"
The palace maid did not raise her head, but was trembling all over, crying and panting: "Ghosts, there are... there are ghosts..."
The surrounding palace people did not speak, and there was silence.
Even Eunuch Hang took a breath. He raised his head and looked around. He didn't see any ghosts, but the dark environment was indeed psychologically depressing.
Eunuch Hang swallowed his saliva, carefully leaned towards Liu Wei, and then said to the palace maid: "What the hell? How could there be a ghost in the palace? Think about it again, did you see someone suspicious?"
"No, it's a ghost, it's a ghost..." The palace maid shook her head nervously and crazily, and finally huddled herself into a ball again, hugging her own arms in fear, looking like she was scared to the point of unconsciousness.
Eunuch Hang asked Liu Wei: "What do you think, sir?"
Liu Wei stared at the palace maid on the ground for a while, and then said after a while: "She must have made a mistake. Send someone to send this palace maid back and keep a close guard on her. Don't let suspicious people get close to Princess Xinluo."
Speaking of this, Liu Wei paused again, and finally said simply: "Forget it, call everyone outside the princess's dormitory, surround the dormitory, and not even a mosquito is allowed in."
This order seemed to be somewhat contrary to what was going to be done today. What Eunuch Hang wanted to say, but Liu Wei was the first to say, "Everything puts the princess's life first."
When Liu Wei said this, Eunuch Hang had no choice but to obey.
After all, since they entered Suixiang Palace, they couldn't just investigate the case and ignore the princess's life.
Although Concubine Li's status is not high, and Princess Xinluo is not favored by the emperor, she is still a concubine, a royal princess, and ultimately her master.
The master's life is naturally the most important.
Liu Wei gave the order, and Eunuch Hang quickly carried it out. So, within half an hour, the entire Suixiang Palace went to guard Princess Xinluo.
Even Liu Wei went there in person.
