Tuoba Han, who had been riding at the front, turned his horse around when he heard the report. "Sixth Prince, what is it?"
Xiao Yunyi pointed his horsewhip at the last carriage that was too quiet. "I heard from the officials of the Ministry of Rites that the envoys from your country exchanged treasures with the two countries. Including the princess' dowry, there should be a total of thirty-six carriages. Where did the thirty-seventh carriage come from and who is sitting inside?"
The vice envoy, Tuoba Han, glanced and said carelessly, "That is the Fourth Miss of our Southern Yan silk merchant's Baiyu family. Her father and I are close friends, so when he came back this time, he asked me to bring her back. Because it is not official business, I did not report it. Why, does Sixth Prince think there is something wrong with her?
If Sixth Prince is worried, you can check it. However, this child has a hard life and met with misfortune. She is injured and cannot come out to meet guests. I will have to trouble Sixth Prince to board the carriage and take a look. "
Xiao Yunyi glanced at Tuoba Han's careless expression and went forward to lift the corner of the curtain with his horsewhip. The mute girl's fingers immediately tightened.
Fortunately, she worried too much.
Because they were already prepared, the curtains of this carriage were specially chosen to be dark. Even though the sun was shining brightly outside and the sky was blue, the interior of the carriage was still a little dim. In addition, the face of the woman dressed in Southern Swallow's clothing was wrapped in layers of cloth, with specks of blood on it, making it impossible to see her face clearly. He could only feel that she was pitifully injured, which made Xiao Yunyi feel a sharp pain in his heart. He thought of how painful it must have been when Ning Shu was hit by the explosion.
The pain in that moment made him not want to investigate the identity of this woman. He put down the curtain and waved his hand. "Sorry to disturb you. Take care, Vice Envoy."
Tuoba Han cupped his fists and said goodbye to him again.
The mute girl and Pangui exhaled at the same time. They quickly lowered their heads and continued to follow the carriage in the direction away from the capital, moving further and further away from the flashy Imperial City.
In the other direction, in the western suburbs, among the crying crowd that was preparing to return home with the coffin, under the tall camphor tree, Xiahou Qing's heart suddenly jumped. He clenched his hands into fists and coughed violently.
"Young Master!" Hui Mo immediately took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket, took out a pill and handed it to him, but he refused to take it. Hui Mo was so anxious that he stamped his feet, "Your Highness, you've spat out blood twice in a short time. If you don't take the medicine, your body won't be able to stand it!"
Jiusi couldn't help but persuade from the side, "Now that things have come to this, no one can save the Milky Way. I know your heart is like a knife, but if you can't take care of yourself, how can you find the murderer who murdered Miss Ning?"
Xiahou Qing stubbornly pushed the medicine away. He smiled bleakly. "Do you know? Just now, I seemed to have heard her calling me by my ear, urging me to go and save her. She was going to be taken away and never come back. "
Hui Mo and the others looked at each other and sobbed, "Master said that if you regret or miss someone too much, you will have auditory hallucinations. Are you blaming yourself? But this was an accident. Who knew that she would pass by the firecracker workshop and the workshop would coincidentally explode … Your Highness, you've already used all your strength. "
Beside him, Tianwen, who had been chewing his nails, suddenly said, "Accident? I don't think so. "
Hui Mo frowned. "You mean it has something to do with Princess Changping? But we've searched all over her palace. The palace guards also saw Eldest Miss Ning leave the palace with their own eyes. Then, she headed west. If Princess Changping had the ability to do something, she wouldn't have to sadly accept the fate of the marriage. What's more, what good would it do her to murder Lady Ning? We've been trying to find ways to help her! "
Tianwen laughed and said, "I'm afraid you don't know. In the end, it wasn't the thirteenth princess who got married, but the fifth princess, Xiao Changyue!"
Hui Mo was stunned. "Wh-what?!"
