"If that's the case, it's probably about eight out of ten?" He Yanxiu asked.
"Yes." Shi Ding nodded.
He Yanxiu was silent.
He Yande's original intention was to delay He Yanxiu's marriage, and he was willing to risk his own life to make the He family mourn.
So when his subordinates reported Fang's disappearance, He Yanxiu subconsciously concluded that it must have been done by He Yande.
He Yande killed Fang secretly so that if he suddenly became cowardly and backed down, Fang would still die.
But Fang's body was never found afterwards.
And now, Fang was found in a valley near Zhuangzi.
Or more than a month later.
If Fang had been killed by He Yande, her body should not have been hidden so secretly, but would have been discovered in such a high-profile manner.
Was it because He Yande hated Fang's harsh treatment of him after he became disabled, so he took revenge by throwing him into the mountains to feed the wild beasts?
Or is there something else going on? He Yanxiu suddenly felt as if a ray of light passed through his mind, and he unconsciously exclaimed "Huh".
"Master, do you think there is anything wrong?" Shi Ding asked.
"No." He Yanxiu reached out and rubbed his eyebrows.
He seemed to have thought of something just now, but he didn't know what it was.
"Tell someone to put the body away and find a way to examine it again. As for the Fang family..." He Yanxiu said, "There's no need to let them know for now."
The Fang family's intentions are obvious. They have long been abandoned by their superiors and have become a discarded pawn.
Fang Dianyi has been reprimanded many times and has now been suspended from his post. In the past two days, he has been impeached many times and will probably be tried and imprisoned soon. He probably has no time and energy to take care of this side.
"yes."
…
The next morning court session.
In Chongyang Palace, most of the things that happen every day are repeated.
The emperor routinely inquired about government affairs in various places. Some officials would come forward to report good news, while others would report worries. Then the censors would impeach them and the emperor would punish them...
About half an hour later, shouts of "adjourn the court" were heard from Chongyang Hall.
Everyone walked out of the hall one after another, in groups of three or four.
He Yanxiu walked slowly at the back.
"Minister He is very absent-minded today?" Qin Peiyou followed He Yanxiu's steps.
"Fortunately, the Ministry of Revenue has been stable these days, and nothing has happened. It's hard not to hear those people talking about nonsense, which is a bit boring."
He Yanxiu said, "Besides, my mother is going to a banquet today. She was worried that my grandmother would be lonely at home, so she asked me to invite Princess Ping'an to come home for lunch today."
"I see." Qin Peiyou nodded.
He Yanxiu would definitely care about anything related to Princess Ping'an. Now his mind was completely focused on having lunch with Princess Ping'an, so naturally he would not pay attention to other things.
"Come to think of it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has become much less talkative in the past two days." He Yanxiu said with a smile.
"I need to learn to do many of the tasks that my father has given me recently." Qin Peiyou said, "Since I need to learn to do them, I need to first learn to watch how others do them and observe them carefully, so that I can gain some insights."
"Not bad." He Yanxiu's eyes were full of approval.
Qin Peiyou is increasingly looking like a king.
"Since Your Highness the Crown Prince is so observant, has Your Highness the Crown Prince noticed any difference between me today and usual?" He Yanxiu asked.
How is He Yanxiu different today than usual?
Qin Peiyou looked He Yanxiu up and down carefully, and his eyes finally fell on the thing attached to He Yanxiu's waist.
"Your accessories are quite unique, but..."
It looks weird.
"Naturally unique." He Yanxiu raised his chin and interrupted Qin Peiyuan's words, "It was made by Princess Ping'an. The pattern is very special. There is only one of its kind in the world."
"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been a loner, so I don't think he understands the meaning of this."
As He Yanxiu spoke, he reached out and patted Qin Peiyou's shoulder with a smile.
Qin Peiyou, "..."
Fortunately, he didn't finish the sentence, otherwise today's incident would have been difficult to handle.
but……
What does it mean to be a loner? Are you mocking him for being single and unmarried? Did this prince's barking bother you and He Yanxiu?
Be a human being!
Qin Peiyou glared at He Yanxiu fiercely, then looked at the accessories hanging around He Yanxiu's waist again and gritted his teeth.
You know what, this thing looks better and better the more I look at it.
Humph, what's so great about it, as long as he wants it, he can have it! After separating from He Yanxiu, Qin Peiyou thought for a moment and went to visit the fifth princess.
"It's hard for Third Brother to think of coming to see me today." Seeing Qin Peiyou coming, the Fifth Princess smiled like a flower and took out some fresh fruits to entertain him. "But looking at Third Brother, it seems like he came to see me for something?"
"Fifth sister is right." Qin Peiyou smiled very flatteringly, "Fifth sister's needlework was taught by mother herself, and it is one of the best in the palace, so I would like to trouble fifth sister to make a little thing for me."
"No problem, but I don't know what kind of thing Third Brother wants, a fan pendant, a sachet or a purse?" The Fifth Princess and Qin Peiyou had a good relationship, so she agreed very readily.
"I don't want any of them. I want..."
Qin Peiyou picked up the paper and pen on the table next to him and drew exactly what He Yanxiu was wearing according to his memory.
After the drawing was completed, it was revised again and finally shown to the Fifth Princess. "Just follow this size and this style. It would be best if you could embroider some patterns on it."
"I need this urgently. If Fifth Sister is not busy, can you help me make it today?"
The fifth princess took the paper and studied it for a moment. "It doesn't look difficult, it should be possible to make. I will embroider the pattern on it into a green bamboo for my third brother. I will send someone to deliver it to my third brother when it's done in the evening."
"But this thing looks rare. Can you tell me, Third Brother, what is it used for?"
"It should be an accessory." Qin Peiyou raised his chin. "My cousin has one and he showed it off to me just now. I was thinking that I should have one that is more exquisite than his to surpass him."
The fifth princess: "..."
Is this the thing that Minister He showed off to you?
That's to show affection to you!
You are still foolishly comparing yourself with others.
It's okay to lose at the beginning?
The fifth princess didn't know what to say to her brother for a moment, and could only look at Qin Peiyou with sympathy, "Actually, third brother can also go out for a walk more often."
"Why do you say that?" Qin Peiyou was surprised.
Go out more often, maybe you'll run into the matchmaker who will tie the knot for you! "Ahem!" The Fifth Princess's mind raced, "Third brother is now the crown prince. Although he has to learn about government affairs, what the tutor and officials teach him is mostly superficial. If third brother wants to have his own opinions, he has to go out and see more, so that he can know for sure."
