Xiao Qiming saw that they were in a state of dejection. Instead of feeling sorry, he took the opportunity to drop the stone.

"Do you know who the man standing with my sister just now is? He is your royal highness now. If you let him know what you have done, think for yourself, what will happen?"

Wu Yao and Lu Tianyi were so dark that they almost fainted.

Xiao Qiming sneered: "just wash your neck and die!"

Wu Yao and Lu Tianyi's mentality completely collapsed.

They rushed up, hugged Xiao Qiming's arm and neck, and began to cry desperately.

"Brother! You are our big brother now! Brother, help us, we are wrong, we dare not again!"

Xue Shi and Xiao Zhilan are ordering. Wen Yan looks up at them.

Xue frowned and said, "keep your voice down and don't disturb others."

Wu Yao and Lu Tianyi had to keep their voices down and continue to plead with Xiao Qiming.

Xiao Qiming was not moved at all.

Hum, I dare to flirt with his sister. I can't scare these two little bastards!

After ordering, Xue began to teach his son a lesson.

"I don't care what you think in your heart. I have to be respectful to your sister in the future. She is now the prince's favorite imperial concubine. If you don't respect her, be careful to make the prince dissatisfied with you."

Xiao Qiming snorted and didn't answer. He looked arrogant like "who you love".

Xue was so angry that he held him for a long time.

Wu Yao and Lu Tianyi sitting next to him were terrified.

They molested the prince's favorite imperial concubine!

Will the prince kill them both in a rage?

The more you think, the more you fear.

Xiao Zhilan poured each of them a cup of tea.

She noticed the difference between Wu Yao and Lu Tianyi and asked curiously, "what's the matter with you two? Why are you so ugly?"

Lu Tianyi asked carefully, "how is your relationship with your sister?"

Xiao Zhilan: "OK."

"Can you help us talk to your sister?"

Xiao Zhilan immediately became vigilant: "what do you say? What bad things have you done?"

Before Lu Tianyi spoke again, Xiao Qiming said first.

"Sister, don't pay attention to them. They're doing it for themselves."

Xiao Zhilan replied, "Oh."

Lu Tianyi and Wu Yao looked at Xiao Qiming with sad and angry eyes.

"Are you still a brother? Even if you don't save your life, you won't let your sister help us!"

Xiao Qiming gave them two words with a sneer——

"Deserved it!"

……

In another room.

Xiao Xi is eating vegetables.

The vegetarian food here really deserves its reputation!

Although it's all vegetarian dishes, it makes a delicious meat dish that doesn't lose. It's absolutely amazing!

Xiao Xi ate four bowls of rice in one breath. He felt that his stomach was seven or eight full. Just then he slowed down his eating speed and began to chew and swallow slowly.

She found that the prince sitting opposite had not finished a bowl of rice, so she couldn't help asking.

"Your Highness, why do you eat so little? Is the food not to your taste?"

Luo QingHan said faintly, "no, I'm just thinking about something."

Xiao Xi blinked and looked curious.

Luo QingHan: "the abbot gave Gu something just now."

He took out a small brocade bag from his sleeve.

This is a brown brocade bag embroidered with white pear flowers. It looks quite elegant.

Xiao Xi was surprised: "I didn't see the abbot give you this just now."

Luo QingHan: "when you went to the toilet, the abbot gave it to the orphan."

Xiao Xi knows clearly.

It seems that the old abbot didn't want others to know such things, so he deliberately avoided her and quietly gave the brocade bag to the crown prince.

But unexpectedly, the prince turned around and took out the brocade bag and put it in front of Xiao Xi.

Xiao Xixi picked up the brocade bag and took out a small and exquisite brass key from it.

At the end of the key, there is also a circular pattern.

Xiao Xi looked and saw nothing.

"Is this the key to something?"

Luo QingHan said slowly: "Gu doesn't know. According to the abbot, this brocade bag is the relic of the mother imperial concubine. The abbot had a little friendship with the mother imperial concubine before. The mother imperial concubine asked him to keep this brocade bag. Later, the mother imperial concubine died, and the brocade bag has been kept here by the abbot. Even he forgot about it. He didn't think of such a thing until he accidentally found this brocade bag when cleaning the meditation room this year."

Xiao Cuixi: "since it's a relic left by Shen Zhaoyi, you can keep it well. Even if you can't open the lock, you can at least be a thought."

Luo QingHan: "the key is not the key, but the pattern on the key. Do you remember Niu Hong?"

Xiao Xi nodded: "remember, he is Dong Shangshu's cousin. He wrote a letter to Dong Shangshu before and almost didn't kill Dong Shangshu."

"It's as like as two peas in the letter. It's the same as the design on the key. It was very familiar to the orphan before. Now, I think of myself alone. When I was a child, I saw a jade pattern with similar designs on my mother's body."

Xiao Xi quickly responded: "do you mean that Niu Hong has something to do with Shen Zhaoyi?"

Then she thought it sounded strange.

She hurriedly added, "my concubine wants to ask Niu Hong. Does the case have anything to do with Shen Zhaoyi?"

"Gu also has this suspicion. Unfortunately, Niu Hong is dead and the clue is broken. Gu has sent someone to Qiluo county to see if he can find some other clues."

Xiao Xi was quite surprised: "Niu Hong died? How did he die?"

Luo QingHan said the cause of Niu Hong's death about once. Finally, he said, "Niu Hong died too coincidentally. There must be something strange in it."

Xiao Xixi stuffed the key into the brocade bag and returned it to him.

Luo QingHan said, "put this brocade bag there first, and then give it to Gu when he needs it."

Xiao Xi was stunned.

This key should be very important to the prince. How can he put the key with her at ease?

Isn't he afraid that she has lost her key?

It seems to see her doubts. Luo QingHan explained: "the identity of Gu is too sensitive. Many people are staring at Gu. It's not safe to put this thing here. It's better to keep it for you."

At this point, he deliberately added.

"I only trust you in the whole palace."

Xiao Xi was a little moved and couldn't help giggling: "I won't live up to your trust."

She carefully stuffed the brocade bag into the inner bag of her clothes.

Luo QingHan suddenly said again.

"Gu plans to return the ashes of his mother's imperial concubine to his hometown for burial."

Xiao Xi looked up at him and didn't understand why he suddenly had such an idea?

Luo QingHan explained slowly.

"In fact, Gu had this idea for a long time. Although Shengguang temple is also good, it's not as good as falling leaves and returning to their roots. Coupled with the case investigated by Niu Hong, Gu thought there might be something strange about the death of his mother's concubine that year. Gu wanted to take this opportunity to go back to Chenliu county to investigate the past."
