Su Shi slowly walked out of the room, gently closed the door, stood quietly in front of the door, sighed softly at the end, and turned around quietly to leave.
The sound of galloping horse hooves came like thunder, and suddenly it stopped like a heavy rain, and the world became quiet again.
Su Shi walked out of the hut and as soon as he came to the bamboo door, he saw two figures running towards him and arrived in front of him soon.
Su Zhou saw that although he was a little tired, he was in good health and could move freely. He felt happy and was about to speak. At this time, Su Shi waved his hand and stood in front of the bamboo door, looking inside with sadness.
Although Su Zhou didn't know what he was waiting for, he saw that Su Shi was worried, so he quietly walked to him and followed Su Shi's eyes to look inside curiously.
But wherever he looked, he didn't find anything strange.
After an unknown amount of time, two more carriages arrived.
Zhou Jin and Qin Yue got off the carriage and saw the twelve guards of the General's Mansion standing like javelins at the intersection. They were hesitating in their hearts when they looked up and saw Su Zhou, Su Shi and Lin Mo standing in front of the bamboo gate.
The two of them were immediately surprised and walked towards them quickly.
They had just arrived in front of the bamboo gate and had not yet spoken. When they saw Su Shi, they sighed softly, then pointed to a hut and told Lin Mo: "Go in and take a look. Be gentle and don't disturb the old man."
Lin Mo immediately replied: "Yes, Young Master."
After he entered the yard, he walked quietly to the door of the hut, then opened the door and walked in.
After a while, Zhou Jin and the others saw Lin Mo walking out with a surprised look on his face and quickly came to Su Shi's side.
Su Shi's eyes suddenly showed a trace of sadness, and he asked slowly: "Is the old man gone?"
Lin Mo lowered his head and replied: "Reporting to Young Master, yes."
"Does it hurt?"
Lin Mo said: "His expression is very peaceful, as if he is asleep."
The sadness in Su Shi's eyes deepened, and he remained silent for a long time before saying to Lin Mo, "You arranged for someone to bury the old man properly."
Lin Mo followed the order and left. Su Shi glanced at the faces of Zhou Jin, Su Zhou and Qin Yue, and said tiredly: "I know you have many questions, but I am very tired now and in a bad mood. I don't want to I don’t want to talk, I don’t want to explain, I just want to have a good sleep.”
Zhou Jin licked his lips a few times, but when he saw Su Shi was in a low mood and felt pity in his heart, he kept silent.
Su Zhou said: "Then let's go back first."
Su Shi nodded, and then the group walked silently to the intersection and came to the carriage.
Qin Yue said hurriedly: "My dear brother is in low spirits and should not ride a horse. Please take my carriage back."
Su Shi did not refuse and walked to the Qin Mansion's carriage. Just as he was about to climb on the carriage, he suddenly stopped again, looked back at Zhou Jin and Su Zhou, and said, "Your guess is not wrong. The prince is indeed Being murdered."
His gentle words were like thunder, making everyone stunned.
Although Zhou Jin and Su Zhou firmly believed that the prince was murdered, after ten years of investigation, they were still like headless flies. Not only did they not have any clues, they also had no direction.
Now that he heard Su Shi's affirmative answer, he naturally knew that Su Shi had found out the ins and outs of the whole matter.
Su Zhou clenched his fists tightly, his straight body trembling slightly. But Zhou Jin's long-cherished wish came to an end, and she felt as if she was empty. If it weren't for her maid Lan'er's quick eyesight and quick hands, she would have fallen to the ground on the spot.
Although Qin Yue didn't know what Su Shi was talking about, when he heard the words "prince" and "murder", he was frightened out of his wits and his mind went blank.
After Su Shi said this, he immediately got into the carriage and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept for. When Su Shi opened his eyes, it was already dark outside the window.
No moon, no stars.
There was only one oil lamp in the room. The lamp was dim and the flame was beating constantly.
Su Shi lay quietly on the bed, but his brain was running continuously.
Although the mystery of the prince's death has been solved, more mysteries remain in Su Shi's heart.
Why is Pei Xuan so sure that Daqian will decline from prosperity in half a year? What book did the prince leave behind that made Pei Xuan pay so much attention to it? Who were the other eleven people killed by Pei Xuan? How much impact did their deaths have on Daqian? Why did Pei Xuan know that Zhou Yi would become the emperor eleven years ago? What is Pei Hyun’s secret?
What did Pei Xuan mean by the last words he said to him?
Suddenly Su Shi couldn't think anymore because his stomach was already growling, and then he remembered that he only drank a bowl of white porridge today.
"Brother Lin."
A surprised voice immediately sounded outside the door: "Sir, are you awake?"
Then the door to the room was pushed open, and Su Shi immediately smelled a strong aroma of food, which made his index fingers move.
Su Shi immediately turned over and sat up, looking at Lin Mo curiously.
After Lin Mo put the food on the table, he said respectfully: "Master, please have a meal."
Su Shi asked in surprise: "Did you get struck by lightning today? You actually got enlightened."
Lin Mo looked at him awkwardly and murmured: "Miss Qin Nan ordered these to be prepared."
Su Shi was stunned for a moment, then felt warm in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Miss Qin is in the house?"
"Not only Miss Qin Nan, but also Her Royal Highness the Princess, Lord Qin, and Young Master Qin are all in the mansion."
Having said this, Lin Mo glanced at him again and said, "Even Eunuch Hu, who serves the emperor, is also in the mansion."
"Eunuch Hu?"
Lin Mo whispered: "Hu Cunyi, Eunuch Hu serves the Emperor closely and is deeply trusted by His Majesty."
Su Shi suddenly looked at Lin Mo with admiration: "You also know this?"
Lin Mo rubbed the back of his head: "Her Highness the Princess asked me to tell you this."
Su Shi immediately understood that this was Zhou Jin's reminder to him not to speak without restraint, as this conversation was meant to be heard by Datian.
He naturally knew why they came and knew that he would have to face them sooner or later, so he didn't care.
Su Shi picked up the bowls and chopsticks and said, "You go over first and come over after I finish eating."
Lin Mo came to the hall, and everyone stood up involuntarily, staring at him.
Su Zhou asked in a deep voice: "Second brother, is he awake?"
Even when facing life and death on the battlefield, Lin Mo did not feel any pressure, but at this time, under the gaze of these eyes, he actually felt an invisible pressure.
He immediately replied: "Second Young Master has woken up and said he would come over soon."
Su Zhou asked again: "Is his body okay?"
Lin Mo shook his head: "Second Young Master is just mentally tired and has fully recovered after waking up."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Su Shi was okay, and heard that he was coming soon, which meant that the prince's case was about to come to light. Everyone had mixed feelings in their hearts, their mood suddenly became nervous, and their breathing became rapid. stand up.
No one spoke, and the hall became quiet, but the atmosphere seemed extremely tense.
