How can it be described in one word? It was so comfortable! Let's not talk about anything else, just this bedroom, there were warm walls on both sides, and the bed was not a bed but a warm kang. It was autumn, and the weather was getting colder. Su Bei called Xia Baoqiu to come together, and the three of them huddled on the warm kang, which was really comfortable.

But in the middle of the night, Nanny Gui came with her people.

Su Bei had no choice but to get up from the warm kang to receive the guest.

Aunt Gui's face looked a little older, probably because of the lack of nourishment from female hormones. Compared with Su Bei's chubby little face, it was like an old eggplant against a young cucumber.

"Miss Abei, the princess heard that you moved into Fengyao Pavilion, so she asked me to come and congratulate you!" said Nanny Gui with a fake smile.

"Thank you, Princess. It's all thanks to her." Su Bei also smiled with a forced smile.

"The princess said, young lady, please remember that you have an agreement with her." After sending everyone away, Nanny Gui went straight to the point.

Su Bei yawned, "I remember that the prince is so sick, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to consummate the marriage."

She sneered in her heart. Although she did not agree with the ancient practice of women remaining widows for the rest of their lives after their husbands died, she felt sorry for Chu Younan as Mo Qingying had been acting so promiscuous during their marriage.

Nanny Gui snorted coldly, "It's not necessary to consummate the marriage, but at least they should look like a couple, right? Even in the general's mansion, doesn't the general have to eat with the first lady on the first and fifteenth day of the month?"

"Oh, okay, I'll try to persuade the prince again!" Su Bei yawned again, "No, I'm so sleepy, Ma'am, go slowly, I'm going back to sleep first!"

After saying that, she stood up and left, and Aunt Gui behind her turned green in the face.

After she left, Su Bei slept, ate and drank. As for the plan to go to Peony Pavilion for dinner on the first and fifteenth day of every month, Chu Younan heard about it but did not agree. There was nothing she could do about it.

Although she spoke a little too softly and I don’t know if Chu Younan heard it, she did say it after all.

It should have been a good life, but just when Chu Younan's injury was almost healed, someone else came from the palace.

It was still Eunuch Wang, but this time, he looked solemn and sent all the servants away.

After a while, Eunuch Wang left. Su Bei went into Chu Younan's bedroom again and saw him half-opening his arms and saying, "Change clothes!"

Su Bei was stunned. "Isn't he still not fully recovered? Where are we going?"

Chu Younan's face was solemn, he pursed his lips and said nothing, and he was still like this when he came back in the evening.

Su Bei was a little puzzled, but no matter how he asked, he wouldn't say anything, as if something serious had happened.

She went out and asked Guizi, but Guizi shook his head. She asked Lingxiao, but Lingxiao pretended to be mute.

This is a bit strange, what's so serious?

Su Bei returned to the room with a puzzled mind, and saw Xia Baoqiu and the other one whispering about something.

Seeing her come in, Wen Xia grabbed her arm with a gossipy look on his face, "Abei! Have you heard about it? It's terrible!"

"What's wrong?"

"It's better to stay at home less at night in the future! I heard that a murderer has come to the capital!" Baoqiu looked terrified.

"Ah?!" Su Bei opened his mouth in shock.

Wen Xia added, "I heard that a girl died yesterday. Not only was her innocence ruined, but her body was also covered with tooth marks, and her flesh fell off piece by piece! How tragic!"

Su Bei suddenly felt the hairs on his back stand up, and he quickly hugged Wen Xia's arm, "Let's sleep together at night, I'm scared!"

"I'm scared too!" Baoqiu also came over.

Which little girl wouldn't be afraid of this?

Over the next seven days, three girls and two boys died in the capital city, all in the same horrific way.

At nightfall, no one dared to walk around in the capital, and people were in panic.

Chu Younan went out early and came back late with injuries, looking exhausted, but he found nothing in the case. The most important thing was that there was a brand on the back of each corpse, which clearly showed the badge of his personal army of Prince Su.

Therefore, during this period, none of his personal soldiers were allowed to go out, but even so, six people still died.

This is obviously a frame-up, but he must catch the real culprit to break this trap.

The emperor gave him seven days to solve the case.

Seven days...time is running out.

Su Bei looked at Chu Younan who was sitting silently at the table thinking, and handed him a bowl of Tai Sui soup. The arrow wound on his body was broken open once while riding a horse, so it should have healed, but now it was still bloody.

Chu Younan waved at him, "You go back first."

Su Bei responded and ran into Ling Xiao again in the yard.

Ling Xiao was talking to Guizi, and when they saw her, they both started pretending to be dumb again.

Su Bei rolled his eyes at the two of them, "I know everything, why are you still pretending!"

Guizi was the first to lose his temper. He sighed and said, "How could our prince be so unlucky? He couldn't even recover from his injuries, and this terrible thing happened!"

"That's right!" Su Bei pretended to be calm, "Your Highness is so unlucky!"

"You think the murderer might not be a human? How could he be so cruel?" Guizi grumbled.

Ling Xiao coughed dryly, "Don't scare her!"

Su Bei smiled indifferently, "I already knew it a long time ago. Everyone in the city knows it, but you two are the only ones who are still keeping it as a secret!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at the two of them with a reproachful look, "I say, you are really stupid. You should have told me about this a long time ago. The princess asked me to go out and buy her a midnight snack a few days ago. She said that the pigeon soup at Baiweilou is particularly delicious. It's a good thing that the prince called me here at the last minute, otherwise..."

Guizi immediately blamed himself, "Oh, yes! I told you, you must not go out at night! That ghost thing is too scary! Not only did he torture little girls, the little girls dared not go out these two days, he even tortured little boys!"

The corner of Su Bei's mouth twitched, "Shouldn't the city guards take charge of this matter? Or the Dali Temple, why is our prince so worried about it?"

Ling Xiao shook his head, "Someone is framing the prince. Behind those dead bodies are the marks of our Prince Su's personal soldiers."

Su Bei: Oh? You figured it out right away. You two, are you pretending to be me? You little brats!

"So, our prince was punished?" she asked tentatively.

Guizi said quickly, "It's more than just a punishment. The emperor has already said that he has seven days to find out. It's already the second day!"

"What are the people from the Dali Temple doing? Aren't they the ones who have to investigate the case?" Su Bei rolled his eyes.

Ling Xiao smacked his lips, "You really don't understand anything! Prince Mu is currently training at the Dali Temple, and he is very happy to see our prince being punished!"

Palace fighting! My head hurts! Su Bei smacked his lips, "What if we can't find out?"

Ling Xiao sighed, "If I can't find out and prove my innocence, I'm afraid I'll have to hand over my power to the 30,000 soldiers."

Su Bei sighed heavily, "Oh! This is difficult to handle!"

After saying that, she turned around and walked out.

Ling Xiao was a little disappointed. He thought that Ah Bei would stand up for him like last time. Although he was a little worried about her standing up for him.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Chu Younan rushing out of the house and running towards Fengyao Pavilion.
