Tang Lianhua, the leader of the Lotus Cult, slapped the table, "No, we must not leave. Once we leave, this matter will become an unsolved case. He said that he was helping to investigate, but I think Xiao Jingyun doesn't want to investigate at all."
With just one sentence, Princess Zhaoning next to her was asked to sit or stand, and her face suddenly turned red.
Nanhai Shenni raised his eyes and looked at the Lotus Leader. The Lotus Leader was immediately so frightened that he shut up and stepped aside.
"Master, you should go over and take a look and see what the prince has to say."
Shen Ziyan also quickly added, "Yes, Master, go and have a look. Miss Liu is also here, and she said the same."
Hearing this, Nanhai Shenni couldn't help but frown. She looked at Shen Ziyan with surprised eyes, "You mean Liu Rumei also came to persuade Chen Xiaobei to leave."
Shen Ziyan nodded, "Yes, she came with the prince."
Nanhai Shenni stopped and looked at Princess Zhaoning, "What did your elder brother say this morning?"
Princess Zhaoning was frightened and repeated what Xiao Jingyun said that morning, "Master, I swear to God, my elder brother really said that."
As she spoke, her face turned red and tears were about to fall out.
Nanhai Shenni nodded, "I believe this, or in the morning, the prince will still be as he told you, if we get to the bottom of it."
The Lotus Leader couldn't help but clasp his fists, "Master, why did he suddenly change his mind?"
Nanhai Shenni nodded, "Yes, not only did he change his mind, he also roped in Liu Rumei as a lobbyist."
"It is most likely that he was prompted by someone to prevent him from continuing to investigate." After that, she looked at the Lotus Cult Leader and then at Shen Ziyan.
Shen Ziyan understood. The master was hinting that their whereabouts were exposed last night, perhaps because of the pressure in the palace.
But there are some things that cannot be said in front of Princess Zhaoning.
Nanhai Shenni didn't speak again and walked out. As he walked, he had already made up his mind.
When Xiao Jingyun saw the Nanhai Shenni coming, he still showed great respect. He quickly stood up and clasped his fists, "The old man has always been kind."
Nanhai Shenni bowed and returned the salute, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Everything is fine with me."
"Is everything well with the Emperor? It's been many years since I last saw him."
"Everything is fine. Thanks to you, my father is in good health and has been doing well."
At this time, Chen Xiaobei stood up, stepped forward to support Nanhai Shenni, and asked her to sit in his seat.
This time, Nanhai Shenni was not polite and went directly to sit down. Then she got straight to the point, "I heard from Zi Yan that His Highness wants us to go back first."
Xiao Jingyun nodded and looked at Liu Rumei.
Liu Rumei immediately understood what Prince Xiao Jingyun meant, which was to let herself stand up and speak out.
Liu Rumei thought for a moment and then said directly, "Yes, senior, I think it's better to go back first. Let Sister Huang Ying be buried in peace first. I will try my best to find out what happened here."
Nanhai Shenni nodded slightly, which confirmed her judgment. She figured it out on the way here.
Huang Ying is his disciple. When he is buried in peace, he can let go of his obsessions to some extent.
Although the Nanhai Shenni could ignore Prince Xiao Jingyun's face, he had to consider Liu Rumei's face.
It's not that Liu Rumei has any deep friendship with her, if Liu Rumei wants to marry Chen Xiaobei next.
Chen Xiaobei is Huang Ying's man. Although Huang Ying is dead, for Huang Ying's sake, she still has to look up to him.
Moreover, Nanhai Shenni believed that if Huang Ying had a spirit underground, she would also want him to do this.
Thinking of this, he slowly said, "Miss Liu is right. In this case, I think it is better for us to return to Hetou Village after noon."
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyun was overjoyed in his heart, but he kept his expression on the surface. He once again raised his fists to Nanhai Shenni and saluted, "Thank you, old man, for your support. Since you want to leave, I will report it to your father."
Xiao Jingyun stood up and left, but Liu Rumei did not leave. She looked at Nanhai Shenni, as if she was hesitant to speak.
Nanhai Shenni raised his hand, "Okay, Miss Liu, you don't have to say anything. I know your difficulties. We might as well talk about it. I am giving you face this time, but from now on, I will have nothing to do with you, Liu Rumei." .”
After saying that, she turned and left.
Nanhai Shenni left, but Chen Xiaobei was very embarrassed. He didn't expect Nanhai Shenni to say such words to his face.
Of course, Nanhai Shenni's words made Liu Rumei very embarrassed.
Fortunately, Cui Hongyu still seemed considerate. She stepped forward and took Liu Rumei's hand, "Miss Liu, please don't think too much. Shenni is in a bad mood."
This also gave Liu Rumei a step up, and she nodded.
"Yes, I can understand. I believe that Mr. Shenni will not blame me."
Cui Hongyu nodded and turned to look at Chen Xiaobei, "Then let's pack up and prepare to leave."
At this time, Xiao Jingyun hurried to the palace to return his life to his father.
After listening to his report, Xiao An relaxed his frown.
"Okay, okay, let Huang Ying be buried as soon as possible."
"You can give Chen Xiaobei some more rewards on my behalf, and send officers and soldiers to escort him. Although we won't hold a state funeral for Huang Ying, we still have to express our gratitude."
Xiao Jingyun bowed and said, "Father, please rest assured, I will definitely comply with your instructions to show your great kindness."
After speaking, Jamel Xiao raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Shunzi next to him, then turned and left.
Seeing Jamel Xiao's look, Xiao An understood in his heart, which meant that Jamel Xiao already knew what was going on.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Bai Han and said, "Go ahead and prepare for what I told you. I believe there will be results soon."
Xiao Jingyun returned to his prince's residence and immediately issued an instruction.
Huang Ying was posthumously named a third-grade imperial guard. This is an honorary title, with a reward of about five thousand taels of silver.
Chen Xiaobei set up an altar to drive away evil spirits and lost ten thousand taels of silver. In addition, Lingluo Silk rewarded a bunch of horses, cattle and sheep.
The rest, Laldo, Yang Chun, Yang Zhi and others, all received rewards.
Then he ordered Zhou Quan to lead the five hundred guards of the Prince's Mansion and personally escort Huang Ying's coffin back to Hetou Village.
It is already a great honor for Huang Ying to be able to let the prince send his own guards to escort the coffin back.
But it was obvious that Nanhai Shenni had no interest in these things at all.
Shen Ni called the Lotus Cult Master into the room alone, "When we set out in the afternoon, you will walk with us. Find an opportunity to leave on the way and return to Wannian City."
"I speculate that after we leave, the Prince's Mansion will make arrangements for the body."
The leader of Lotus Hua understood instantly, "Master, you mean to let me stay there and follow the clues."
Nanhai Shenni nodded, "Yes, if it is really Xiao Dezi, then he will never be buried quietly."
