"Hahahaha, I told you that you are a wonderful person." Xiao Minglan stretched out his hand, half laughing and half crying. There were still traces of tears on his face. He said with drunken eyes, "Since you are not afraid of death, why are you still looking for me?"
Xiahou Qing raised his hand, indicating for Jiu Si to help him to sit opposite Xiao Minglan. He coughed a few times and laughed softly, "Xiahou Qing is indeed not afraid of death, but I am afraid of one thing."
Xiao Minglan raised his eyebrows.
The bright light behind his back made Xiahou Qing's face look exceptionally resolute, "That is going to the netherworld but not knowing why I died, going to hell but not knowing who stabbed me. Even if I die, Xiahou Qing will not be able to rest in peace. Your Highness the Prince is a very emotional person. Are you willing to do this? "
Xiao Minglan looked at empty space in confusion, "Even if I am not willing, what can I do? We can't win, no one can win … "
Xiahou Qing's eyebrows twitched. He sensed that Jiu Si obviously knew something. He stood up and said, "How would I know if I haven't tried? Your Highness, please send everyone away. "
Xiao Minglan raised his head to look at him. He was stunned for a moment before he waved his hand and ordered everyone in the hall to leave. Jiu Si was still not at ease and personally closed all the doors and windows.
Xiao Minglan frowned, "What do you want to tell me?"
Xiahou Qing did not say a word. He only opened his collar silently and pulled off the fake skin covering his neck, revealing the glaring blood red inside.
When he saw the blood red shape, Xiao Minglan's pupils shrank and he almost fell off the soft couch. His face was pale as he shouted, "You, where did you get this poison from!"
"I have been suffering from this poison since I was ten years old. After that, it would take away a sense from me every once in a while. Until now, my life is at stake. Since I entered the capital, I have been secretly investigating. I have suspected countless people, including Your Highness the Prince. " At this point, Xiahou Qing had no need to hide anymore. He went straight to the point, "Until the princess was killed on the street, I then knew that you and I were birds in the same cage. Over the years, there have been many questions that have been bothering me. Perhaps only the Grand Prince can give me some pointers. "
Xiao Minglan's lips were trembling and her eyes were in a mess. She turned around and asked, "How can you be so sure that I know something? Maybe I don't know anything. You've got the wrong person. "
Xiahou Qing smiled faintly, straightened his collar, and sat back down. He said in a low voice, "Your Highness' reaction and answer just now, isn't it? The Plum Blossom Kiss was the Plum Blossom Kiss that was closely related to Empress Zhou. There are not many people in the capital who still know about this strange poison and what happened twenty-five years ago. Among the few who do, the Prince is the one I trust the most. The Qinwang might not be afraid of death, but what about Rui Junzhu? She was fifteen years old, in the prime of her life. She hadn't even had the chance to experience the beauty of the world before she was killed. Was she willing to accept this? Could it be that the Grand Prince is willing to let the young Commandery Princess die with grievances? "
Hearing Rui's name, Xiao Minglan clenched her fist and bit down hard on the back of her hand.
Xiahou Qing lowered his voice and said word by word, "Now that the young Commandery Princess is dead, if we can't catch the culprit, will the next one to die be your only sister from the same mother — — Princess Royal Xiao Mingxue?"
Xiao Minglan's entire body shook. She felt as if she had fallen into a boundless whirlpool and was unable to extricate herself. The red mole under her eyes looked as if it was bleeding. She bit her fist until it was broken and her mouth was full of blood. She closed her eyes and exhaled deeply. Her throat was filled with gravel.
"When Empress Zhou died, I was only six years old."
