Li Chengye was the real culprit who killed Prince Li Chengji. Later, he put the blame on Dan Chi, claiming that they were the ones who assassinated the prince.
As the King of Danchi, Tiedal must have known that this was a frame-up and slander. Therefore, once the Dali Temple is interrogated, Li Chengye's lies will definitely be exposed.
But he did not dare to kill King Tiedal on the road, so he had to wait until the prisoner ceremony was over and transfer King Tiedal to Dali Temple before being killed.
In this way, the person responsible became the Dali Temple official, and he had nothing to do with Li Chengye. Moreover, most people in Dali Temple are involved with high ministers.
He could still vaguely point to the high minister for the death of King Tiedal. What he did was really killing two birds with one stone, I had to accept it!
"Abnormal is not normal, but I think no one will check it." Xiang Nan said.
Although King Tiedal's death was abnormal, no one would avenge him.
Because although he was involved in the death of the prince, the emperor had no intention of pursuing the truth, otherwise he would not have sent Li Chengye to investigate. Xiang Nan, Prime Minister Gao, and Chai Mu could all see this, but only Li Chengye had a guilty conscience and couldn't see it.
The emperor didn't even want to investigate the truth about the prince's death, so how could he investigate the death of King Tiedal. On the contrary, the emperor must have felt that he would be better off dead.
In this way, all secrets will be buried under the yellow sand with him. As long as Li Chengye behaves well as the prince from now on, he doesn't need to pursue the past matters.
When Chai Mu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.
As the king of Danchi Kingdom, King Tiedal was very prosperous for a while. It is said that even goshawks dare not land when they hear his name. Now, Xili Hutu died in prison, and there was not even a single person to care about him.
Right or wrong, success or failure turns to nothing, which makes people sigh.
"By the way, Mr. Chai, don't tell the Ninth Princess about this." Xiang Nan asked again.
Chai Mu nodded.
He originally didn't want to tell Qu Xiaofeng about this.
…
The convoy stayed at the posthouse at night.
After finishing the meal, Xiang Nan went to the upper room, took out a long flute, and blew it quietly.
The closer he got to Shangjing, the more confused he became.
Because compared to the real fighting with swords and guns on the battlefield in the Western Territory, the overt and covert attacks in Beijing are actually more difficult to guard against.
He couldn't help but feel melancholy when he thought that after returning, he would be involved in a power struggle, which was rarely happy.
Xiang Nan played Soujiro's classic "Original Scenery of Hometown".
The sound of whispers and resentment, like weeping and complaining, tell the story of the wanderer's longing for his hometown.
Everyone in the posthouse was moved after hearing this. Qu Xiaofeng and A'Du unknowingly had their eyes wet with tears.
"What kind of song is this? It's so sad." Qu Xiaofeng couldn't help but asked, then opened the window and looked out.
They saw Xiang Nan dressed in white, standing on the roof, quietly playing the cave flute. Under the moonlight, the gentle breeze blows, and the white clothes are fluttering, looking natural and ethereal, like an immortal.
"Wow~" Qu Xiaofeng's eyes widened for a moment, and he looked at it without blinking. He felt that Xiang Nan was really charming at this moment.
Even A'Du, who had always been hostile to Xiang Nan, couldn't help but feel surprised at this moment.
After the song was played, Xiang Nan floated down gracefully, with light movements, like a piece of floating catkins.
Qu Xiaofeng and A'Du's eyes lit up once again when they saw such light skills.
…
Turning around, Qu Xiaofeng asked Xiang Nan, "Li Chengyin, what piece of music did you play yesterday?"
"'Hometown'." Xiang Nan explained, "Does it sound good?"
"It turns out to be "Hometown"." Qu Xiaofeng murmured. No wonder after listening to it, she couldn't help but think of Xizhou, her family, the grasslands of Xizhou, and everything in Xizhou.
"It sounds good, can you play it again?" Qu Xiaofeng said to Xiang Nan with a smile.
"Call me good brother and I'll play it to you." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"You hate it, you want to take advantage of me again." Qu Xiaofeng said with a blush.
No matter how innocent she was, she now knew that Xiang Nan was deliberately teasing.
"Are you going to scream?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Good brother~" Qu Xiaofeng could only say.
"What are you doing calling me brother?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile upon hearing this.
"Hate it, you know I want to hear music, hurry up and play it for me." Qu Xiaofeng said angrily when he saw him pretending to be stupid.
"Ah, are you so arrogant when asking for help?" Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Be nicer to me~"
"You~" Qu Xiaofeng had no choice but to force out a smile, "Good brother, play a piece of music for me~"
"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded, then took out a long Xiao and played "Song of the Mountain Eagle" happily.
"Hey, this is not the same song as before." Qu Xiaofeng said in surprise.
"Yes, this song is "Song of the Mountain Eagle". Does it sound good?" Xiang Nan asked.
"'Song of the Mountain Eagle'?!" Qu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Compared with the song "Hometown" last night, it was sad and sad and made people cry. This song "Song of the Mountain Eagle" has a sense of perseverance, tranquility and loftiness.
"Li Chengyin, I also want to ride a horse, okay?" Qu Xiaofeng asked again.
She rode horses every day in Xizhou, but after leaving Xizhou for several days, she could only stay in the carriage every day, and she was really bored to death.
Because Duke An Guo always told her to abide by the rules and was not allowed to show up in public, wander around, or talk to anyone, it almost annoyed her to death.
"Well, I'll go and help you discuss it with Duke An Guo." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Really, thank you." Qu Xiaofeng said gratefully upon hearing this.
…
Xiang Nan then went to find Duke An Guo.
"Fifth Prince, how can this be done? Riding horses is not a joke. What if something happens to the Ninth Princess?" An Guogong heard this and flatly refused, "Besides, the Ninth Princess is the future Crown Princess, so she is not suitable to be here. Show your face in the market."
[In view of the general environment,
"Don't worry. I'm here. How can anything happen? If we are afraid that the princess will show her true appearance, why don't we put a veil on her." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Dong An, the ninth princess grew up on a horse. Not riding a horse for a day makes me feel bored, let alone several days.
If you get sick from being bored in the carriage, won't it be more troublesome then? So let her come out for some air. It's good for us all if she's happy, so why bother with the Crown Princess. "
An Guogong thought for a while and finally nodded.
Xiang Nan then found Qu Xiaofeng and said, "Come on, Duke An Guo agreed."
"Really?! That's great." Qu Xiaofeng said happily.
Xiang Nan immediately asked someone to help her choose the most docile horse.
Qu Xiaofeng changed into a military uniform, put on a veil, and got out of the carriage.
"Come on, give me your hand." Xiang Nan stretched out his hand.
Qu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, then handed his hand to him.
Xiang Nan held her hand and with a little force, Qu Xiaofeng was carried away by him and landed firmly on the saddle.
"Wow~" Qu Xiaofeng said in surprise, then grabbed the reins and chuckled, "It feels so good to come out. Li Chengyin, do you dare to compete with me, who can ride the fastest?"
"Princess, please calm down. It's already an exception to allow you to come out and ride a horse." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Besides, this is a post road, not a grassland. There are so many pedestrians coming and going, and it won't be good if we bump into anyone. Just ride it steadily."
"Humph, that's it~" Qu Xiaofeng pouted.
"There are still many differences between the Central Plains and the Western Region, and the princess needs more time to adapt." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
