Chapter 170: Take the King with You
Xie Yingmian said, "Xiao Lingxi had an accident at the flower viewing banquet."
"She fell from the pleasure boat and landed in an ice hole."
Yu Lingye: "So?"
Xie Yingmian narrowed his eyes and said, "You said, if I go out secretly, it will be known to heaven and earth, you and me, so it shouldn't be considered as disobeying the order, right?"
Yu Lingye said coldly, "Can you guarantee that heaven, earth, you, and I will all know?"
Forehead……
Xie Yingmian really couldn't guarantee it.
She is going to find Xiao Lingxi and is bound to meet many people.
In the era of imperial power, the emperor's orders were above everything else.
As long as the emperor pursues her, she will not be able to escape.
Xie Yingmian said, "Xiao Lingxi's life is hanging by a thread. I'm selling Tiger Tiger Pills with Xiao Lingxi, and it's not time to share the profits yet. I haven't received my dividend yet. If she dies like this, I'll be at a loss."
"I have to save my silver."
"To save the silver, I have to go to the Princess's Mansion. To go to the Princess's Mansion, I have to go out. If I go out, I have to disobey the order."
"So...if I disobey your order, will I be beheaded?"
Yu Lingye asked back, "Are you afraid of being beheaded?"
Xie Yingmian was speechless: "Nonsense, I only have one head, and if I cut it off it can't grow back, so of course I'm afraid."
"But I think that since I came back in time, I shouldn't be beheaded."
Yu Lingye put down his pen: "Not really, but there are ways to not disobey the order."
Xie Yingmian's eyes lit up: "I'm all ears."
Yu Lingye: "Take me with you."
Xie Yingmian let out an "Ah".
Yu Lingye said, "I am a prince and have the right to supervise. If I am with you the whole time and I supervise you, it will not be considered as disobeying your order."
Xie Yingmian:!
Why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?
She had long wanted to take the original owner's mother's belongings.
Because there was a ban, and based on the principle of less trouble is worse than more, she kept waiting.
After waiting for more than a month,
But Yu Lingye told her that as long as she went out with him, she wouldn't be considered disobeying his order?
Sensing Xie Yingmian's resentment,
Yu Lingye patiently explained, "The prince's supervisory authority does allow him to take you out, but there are conditions. Besides me, I also need a high-ranking official from the Six Criminal Department to supervise you."
"Upon your return, the prince and the official in charge will need to report your itinerary in detail to the emperor. If the prince's report and the official's report disagree, we will have to confront them face to face. This process is tedious and troublesome."
Xie Yingmian immediately stopped feeling resentful.
It would be better to hide at home and replicate delicious food than to be watched by the emperor and outsiders.
"Come with me to the Princess's Mansion." Xie Yingmian said.
Yu Lingye: "The case of Dead Man Ridge has not been fully investigated yet, and Xiao Lingxi was murdered at this time. Are you sure you want to get involved in this mess?"
Xie Yingmian: "How do you know that Xiao Lingxi was murdered?"
Yu Lingye said, "The weather is extremely cold, the lake is frozen, and the ice is thick enough to support a person."
"Xiao Lingxi has great skills. Even if he falls from the pleasure boat, he won't fall into the ice hole, unless someone is setting a trap for him."
Xie Yingmian sighed, "You were right."
"Fu Fu said that Xiao Lingxi was pushed down by some cousin. This was a conspiracy between the Duke and the cousin. It seems that their purpose was to find some key..."
Having said this, Xie Yingmian paused.
She had heard the word "key" from Xiao Qingyan.
Take the token to exchange for the key. Only after getting the key can you go to Baibaolou to get the relics of the original owner's mother.
I wonder if the key that Junma is looking for is related to the key that Xiao Qingyan mentioned.
Xie Yingmian said:
"I don't know if the water is muddy or not. I only know that my Tiger Tiger Pills cost money. It's my money, and I can't give up a penny."
Yu Lingye had wanted to ask since a while ago: "What is Tiger Tiger Pill?"
The name sounds fierce and powerful, like a powerful pill.
If this powerful pill is used in the military...
Xie Yingmian laughed twice when he heard this: "I checked it for you, you won't need it."
Yu Lingye:?
"If you want to use it, it's not impossible." Xie Yingmian introduced it very seriously.
"My Tiger-Tiger Pills are made with pure, all-natural ingredients, are pollution-free, and have no side effects. A man like Prince Ling, in his physical condition, can maintain his virility and have sex with several women in one night."
"When spring comes and Prince Ling's Mansion welcomes new people, I can give you a few for free to ensure that your backyard is always bustling with activity."
Yu Lingye: ...
He really shouldn't have expected anything from Xie Yingmian.
When Fu Fu learned that Xie Yingmian was going to the Princess's Mansion, he thanked her profusely.
She wanted to go back with Xie Yingmian, but quickly gave up the idea.
If Xie Yingmian went alone, the prince would not be alert.
If she went with him, the princess would immediately understand that Xie Yingmian was the reinforcement she had brought in.
The county horse might become desperate and do something very disadvantageous to the princess.
Fu Fu kowtowed heavily to Xie Yingmian several times without saying anything.
Yu Lingye is very efficient in his work.
In less than half an hour, an official named Li was invited to take charge.
Several people came to the Princess's Mansion together.
Just as Fu Fu said.
The Princess's Mansion is already in ruins.
The door was filled with white elegiac couplets and white wreaths.
Servants were busy coming in and out, taking down the red lanterns and replacing them with white ones.
The Prince's Mansion, now in ruins, was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye's carriage stopped.
The doorman immediately went to report.
Xiao Lingxi's horseman Pang Xuduan hurried over.
Pang Xuduan was wearing white mourning clothes, his eyes were red and his face was haggard.
He bowed deeply and said with great sorrow, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Ling, and Princess Ling."
"There's a family funeral, and I'm sorry I didn't come to greet you. I hope Prince Ling and Princess Ling will forgive me..."
When Pang Xuduan said this, he was heartbroken and on the verge of collapse.
Xie Yingmian watched Pang Xuduan's performance quietly.
Pang Xuduan is a typical scholar. Judging from his appearance alone, he is handsome and suave.
When she was chatting with Xiao Lingxi,
Xiao Lingxi always looked embarrassed whenever she mentioned her husband.
Before meeting Pang Xuduan, Xie Yingmian only thought Xiao Lingxi was a love-brained person.
After truly witnessing Pang Xuduan's acting skills, Xie Yingmian suddenly realized that it was true that Xiao Lingxi was love-brained and that the other party was very resourceful.
"Is Xiao Lingxi dead?" Xie Yingmian asked coldly.
Pang Xuduan didn't expect Xie Yingmian to be so indifferent.
He knew that Xiao Lingxi had been going to Prince Ling's Mansion frequently in the past month.
Xiao Lingxi also trusts Xie Yingmian very much and has told him more than once that she regards Xie Yingmian as her own sister.
He originally thought Xie Yingmian came to pay his respects.
Looking at Xie Yingmian's cold and ruthless look, it seemed that she had no intention of caring about Xiao Lingxi at all.
It’s good that you don’t care about Xiao Lingxi.
"Yes." Pang Xuduan was secretly delighted, but his tone was filled with sorrow. "The princess accidentally fell into an ice hole during the flower viewing banquet."
"She sank under the ice and was difficult to rescue. By the time she was rescued, she was already unconscious."
"It was freezing cold, and to make matters worse, she developed a high fever that wouldn't go away."
"The imperial doctors came in waves, but no one could help."
"The imperial physician has issued an ultimatum, saying that Lingxi might be...probably..."
Before Pang Xuduan finished speaking, tears were already streaming down his face.
