Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

After distributing the red envelopes to the people at the door, Luo Qingyan took Yunshang back to the mansion, and the housekeeper hurriedly said, "The prince and concubine should have breakfast in the flower hall today, I'm afraid they will pay New Year's greetings later." People will come to you.”

Luo responded lightly, and the butler quickly ordered someone to order, and put the breakfast in the flower hall.

Luo Qingyan and Yunshang went directly to the flower hall, and the servants had already arranged the meals, which were red bean porridge, some side dishes and pastries.

While eating, he suddenly saw Qian Zhuo rushing over, "My lord, my concubine, something happened." When he entered the door, he brought down the vase placed by the door, and the vase fell to the ground with a "bang", and fell to the ground. Broken. Qianzhuo staggered because of this, and almost couldn't stand still.

Seeing this, Qin Yi hurriedly stepped forward to support Qianzhuo, and said in a low voice: "It's a big Chinese New Year, what happened to make you so flustered." After speaking, she stared at the fragments of the vase on the ground and said, "Small peace, Peace of mind."

Yun Shang put down her chopsticks and looked at Qian Zhu, who seemed to be startled by the sound of the broken vase, and said softly, "What's the matter? You ran over in such a hurry, Zensheng is stupefied again?"

Only then did Qianzhuo come back to his senses, and quickly said: "Report to the lord, to the concubine, Liu Chuchu is dead."

"Dead?" Yun Chang slammed the chopsticks on the bowl, making a crisp sound, and even Luo Qingyan raised his head.

"How did he die? The mansion is heavily guarded. If someone approaches the courtyard where Liu Chuchu is being held, he will definitely be discovered. Could something be wrong?" Yun Shang asked repeatedly.

Qian Zhuo looked a little ugly, and shook his head, "There is nothing wrong with the guard, Liu Chuchu committed suicide. The servant did not notice that there was a piece of gold in the purse placed on Liu Chuchu's body, and Liu Chuchu swallowed the gold. She was dead, when I went to the guards to deliver food to Liu Chuchu yesterday, she was still fine. Just now when the slaves ordered someone to deliver breakfast to her, they found that she was dead."

"Why did she commit suicide?" Yun Chang frowned a bit puzzled. About the conversation with Liu Chuchu yesterday, Liu Chuchu was still begging them not to spread the news that she was still alive, and committed suicide by swallowing gold last night. why?

"Princess, what should I do now? What should I do with Liu Chuchu's body?" Qian Zhuo asked softly.

Yun Chang pondered for a moment, and was about to speak, but saw the butler coming over again, "Princess, the seventh prince and concubine, Mr. Liu and his wife, Mr. Liu, Mr. Li, the servant of the Ministry of punishment, and Mr. Qian, the servant of the household department, came to pay New Year's greetings to the prince and concubine. gone."

Luo Qingyan heard the words, but suddenly sneered, "These people came together, but it makes people feel that they are not here to pay New Year's greetings, or to find fault." Then he ordered Qianzhuo, "Think about it The disposal of that Liu Chuchu's body must be clean and tidy."

Qianzhuo responded and was about to leave, but Yunshang stopped her again and let her listen to her, Yunshang said softly, "You go back to the yard first, and stay in the cage you brought from Ningguo earlier. ..."

When Qian Zhuo heard the back, his eyes lit up, he nodded quickly, then stood up straight, and hurriedly walked towards the entrance of the flower hall.

Yun Chang's mind flashed, and he quickly raised his voice, "Be careful, don't let people see you."

Qianzhuo quickly agreed, and Yunshang then turned her head and ordered the housekeeper to bring the people who paid New Year's greetings to the flower hall, and asked the maid to remove the breakfast from the table, and ordered someone to make tea.

After a while, the housekeeper's voice sounded at the door, "Seventh Prince, Seventh Concubine, Master Liu Er, Mrs. Liu Er, Lord Li, Lord Qian, Mr. Liu, please come inside."

Then I saw the Seventh Prince and Hua Yutong coming in with a lot of people behind them, they walked into the hall together, saluted Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang, "Happy New Year, Lord Rui, Princess Rui."

"Happy New Year." Luo Qingyan and Yunshang also responded with a smile, calling them to sit down at will without courtesy.

Luo Qingyan turned his eyes to look at the Seventh Prince, and asked with concern on his face: "Is your body better? Seeing that your face is still a little pale..." He turned around and said to Yun Shang , "By the way, last time in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, the Empress asked you to feel Lao Qi's pulse, but you can see what's wrong with Lao Qi?"

After Luo Qingyan finished speaking, he looked at the Seventh Prince again, "Your sister-in-law's medical skills are learned from the abbot Ning Guowu. There is no cure for all of them, but maybe Ningguo has a prescription for the symptoms."

Yun Chang smiled and said: "Last time in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, the Seventh Prince woke up before he had time to take his pulse. If the Seventh Prince doesn't dislike my poor medical skills, it's okay to take a look."

The Seventh Prince never found a chance to speak, so he hurriedly said, "My body is just like this, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do about it, the current prescription seems to be effective, the imperial physician Say you can't change the prescription at will, so I don't bother my sister-in-law."

Yun Shang smiled slightly when she heard the words, nodded and said: "There is such a saying that a prescription can't be changed at will if you are used to it. If that's the case, forget it over there."

Yun Chang turned her eyes, but saw Liu Yinfeng looking at her, Yun Shang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly at Liu Yinfeng, and looked away.

The Seventh Prince smiled and said: "Ever since the eldest brother moved here, he hasn't seen the scenery of this mansion for a long time. If the eldest brother and sister-in-law don't dislike it, why don't you go shopping with us?"

When Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang heard what the Seventh Prince said, their hearts were full of alarm bells. After a moment of silence, Yun Shang laughed, "Brothers, why don't you dislike it? After the prince and I moved into the mansion, I haven't had time to take care of it all the time, except for the courtyard where we live, other places in the mansion are the same as before, not much has changed. If the Seventh Prince wants to go shopping, then let's go."

Luo Qingyan nodded, helped Yunshang to stand up, and a group of people went out from the other side of the flower hall.

"I remember, this should be a peach garden." The Seventh Prince said with a smile as he left the flower hall.

"Yeah, but now is not the time for the peach blossoms to bloom. In two months, the peach blossoms should be in full bloom. It will be so beautiful by then." Yun Shang responded with a smile.

Passing through the peach garden, entering a round door, the road diverges, with a lake in the middle and corridors on both sides. To the left is to the courtyard where Yunshang lives now, and to the right is to the main courtyard when the prince was still there.

The Seventh Prince went out the door, turned to the right, and said with a smile, "I used to fish in this lake before, and the elder brother of the prince was still there at that time. Once we had a dispute over some trivial matter, and the two of us fell apart. After entering the lake, we were reprimanded by the emperor afterwards."

Yun Chang smiled and didn't answer, but she was a little confused. The Seventh Prince didn't just come to pay New Year's greetings today, but he tried every means to enter the backyard. What's the purpose?

Yun Shang was thinking about it when she saw Qian Zhuo walking over from the front. Yun Shang paused slightly, and frowned, now the courtyard where they live is on the left, why did Qian Zhuo come out from this side?

After pondering in his heart for a while, he realized that Liu Chuchu was imprisoned in some yard here, and they ordered Qianzhuo to clean up Liu Chuchu's body just now.

And the Seventh Prince tried his best to lure all of them here, probably for this reason.

In this way, the Seventh Prince must have known that Liu Chuchu who was in the Seventh Prince's Mansion that day was not the real Liu Chuchu, and knew that Liu Chuchu was brought to Prince Rui's Mansion by her.

Liu Chuchu committed suicide last night, so today he brought Liu Chuchu's parents and the servant of the Ministry of Punishment here eagerly. From this point of view, it is very likely that he also knows that Liu Chuchu has committed suicide now.

There are only two possibilities for the Seventh Prince to know about these things, one is that he arranged for a spy to be in Prince Rui's Palace. But Prince Rui's Mansion has always been heavily guarded, and from the time Liu Chuchu was brought into the mansion until her death, she avoided everyone in the mansion, and the courtyard where Liu Chuchu was imprisoned was even guarded by many dark guards with strong martial arts skills. It is almost impossible to enter the yard to inquire.

Another possibility is that the Seventh Prince and the Liu Mansion have colluded with each other from the beginning to the end.

Including the fake Liu Chuchu's accident, the servant who led Yunshang to the yard where the accident happened, and the map of the Seventh Prince's Mansion with the word Rui tattooed on it, all were arranged by the Seventh Prince. The purpose is to get her attention and let her investigate the matter. Then, Madam Liu was asked to show her flaws deliberately, and went to visit the courtyard where Liu Chuchu was hiding, and took advantage of the opportunity to lead the secret guards sent by Yunshang to monitor the movement of Liu's mansion. Yunshang sent someone to bring Liu Chuchu to the mansion, I'm afraid it was also in his calculations, and in the end, Liu Chuchu committed suicide by swallowing gold... Everything is just a trap set by the Seventh Prince.

The purpose was to plunge Prince Rui's residence into a life-threatening lawsuit.

If something happened to Liu Chuchu in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, no matter how strong the evidence was, some people would suspect that the Seventh Prince had done something wrong. But if Liu Chuchu was found dead in Prince Rui's mansion, and supplemented with some other evidence, although it might not be enough to kill Luo Qingyan, it would certainly be able to discredit Prince Rui's mansion among the people of Jincheng.

Yun Chang hooked the corners of her lips, fortunately, this time, she was one step ahead...

Just thinking about it, I heard a "click", as if someone stepped on something, and then I heard Hua Yutong's exclamation. Yun Chang turned around and saw Hua Yutong leaning back and forth.

Seeing this, Qianzhu hurriedly stepped forward to support Hua Yutong's body.

"Is Seventh Princess okay?" Yun Shang asked with concern.

Hua Yutong seemed to be taken aback by surprise, but he still looked a little bit overwhelmed, and said after a while, "It's nothing, just stepped on something and slipped."

After everyone heard this, they looked at the ground, but they saw a white pearl lying on the ground, which seemed to have fallen from someone's shoe or a hairpin, and there was a red embroidered cloth on the pearl.

Qian Zhuo bent down to pick up the pearl, and said strangely: "What is this?"

Mrs. Liu's complexion suddenly changed, and she ran forward in two steps, staring fixedly at the pearl of Qianzhuo audience, her complexion suddenly turned pale, "It belongs to my daughter, this is the pearl on Chuchu's shoe."\u003c
