King Qi, who looked relaxed just now, suddenly became cautious after hearing Su Qingyu's words.
He sat leaning against the armrest and looked at Su Qingyu up and down, as if he wanted to see her inside and out.
That look showed undisguised murderous intent.
If he were an ordinary person, he could fool him easily. But the woman in front of him was someone even his violinist couldn't deal with, and he had no chance of fooling her.
"Where did you know that there is this violinist in this king's house?"
He knew in his heart that whatever Su Qingyu could ask specifically about today must be what she knew.
Otherwise, under this situation, why would Su Qingyu want to ask a piano player.
Su Qingyu leaned on the chair, supported her chin with one hand, and then looked at King Qi with her big innocent eyes.
"King Qi still remembers that I also played this piece of music at the reception banquet for the envoys of Western Chu."
King Qi immediately sat up straight.
Of course he remembers! And he also informed the person in Taohua Courtyard about the matter after returning home.
The man smiled indifferently and said nothing more: "He is an opponent worthy of being taken seriously."
Su Qingyu continued: "So, as long as you have the ability to assassinate Prince Ling's house, don't I have the ability to get some information from your house?"
King Qi gradually tightened his grip on the armrest until veins popped out on the back of his hand.
"Su Qingyu, I really underestimate you!"
"Seventh brother is really lucky to marry a woman like you."
Su Qingyu nodded in agreement: "You are lucky to meet an opponent like me."
"After all, when you are pretending to be a fool, you are really ugly and stupid!"
Su Qingyu stood up without warning, and then patted the non-existent wrinkles on her body.
"Okay, I've finished what I want to ask. Now, I just want to go for a walk in His Highness Prince Qi's residence. His Highness Prince Qi won't mind, right?"
Su Qingyu put her hands behind her back and walked slowly towards the door.
Behind her were the footsteps of King Qi following closely.
When Su Qingyu was about to cross the threshold, King Qi raised his hand to stop her.
"Wait a minute."
Su Qingyu looked suspicious: "I just want to take a walk in your yard, isn't this okay?"
King Qi sneered: "Is this within the scope of your investigation?"
"Of course it is."
"Then what if I don't accept it?"
Su Qingyu frowned dissatisfied: "You are obstructing me from handling the case. I will report it to His Majesty truthfully."
Upon hearing that Su Qingyu had no plans to threaten him, King Qi immediately relaxed a lot.
"You should know that you even got your qualifications to investigate the case from your father. Do you think if you bring such a trivial matter to your father, will he stand on your side or on my side? "
Su Qingyu seemed to be angry: "Your Highness, Prince Qi! I just want to take a walk in your house. What are you afraid of?"
"I know His Majesty treats you differently, but there is no need for you to repeat it in front of me, right?"
Speaking of this, Su Qingyu suddenly came closer and asked in a mysterious manner: "Speaking of which, I'm quite curious. You've been pretending to be stupid all these years. Is Your Majesty an insider?"
King Qi's face became very ugly, but he did not reveal any flaws. Su Qingyu could not guess the answer from his face for a while.
"Su Qingyu, don't think that I don't know who you want to find in my yard."
As expected, that violinist lives in Prince Qi's Mansion!
Su Qingyu was of course not interested in visiting Prince Qi's Mansion. She just wanted to know if the piano master lived in Prince Qi's Mansion.
Now that she has the answer, she naturally has no need to stay.
However, now facing King Qi, she had to be more careful.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow. I hope King Qi can change his mind and let me meet this mysterious violinist in your house."
After saying these words, Su Qingyu left Qi Prince's Mansion with Mingyue in a swaggering manner.
By the time she went to Su Qingru's place to eat and sit for a while, it was already dark.
Su Qingru and her daughter took her all the way to the entrance of the alley, still worried.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have kept you chatting so much just now. It's so dark now, so you have to be careful on the road."
Aunt Qin was a little annoyed, and she looked around on the street from time to time, for fear that some unscrupulous people would really come out of the night to harm people.
Su Qingru held Su Qingyu's hand and whispered: "Both my mother and I already know the news of the second sister's death. Now many people are spreading the news that you killed the second sister. Mother is also worried that you will be killed by those bad people. It’s too bad, don’t bother her.”
Su Qingyu held her hand instead: "Others suspect that I killed her, are you so sure that I'm not the murderer?"
Su Qingru shook her head: "We don't know what others think, but my mother and I definitely don't believe that my eldest sister would do such a thing."
"The second sister has done too many wrong things. Even if the eldest sister wants to kill her, she will not use such despicable methods, not to mention that she has a child in her belly. How can you be so kind-hearted, how can you have the heart to kill her at this time? "
Su Qingru said these words not to make Su Qingyu happy, but from the bottom of her heart.
Although Su Qingyu has not come to see their mother and daughter during this period of time, mother and daughter will always pay special attention to anything about Su Qingyu.
So much has happened, but she is still as kind and beautiful as before. Based on this alone, Su Qingru and her daughter would not have any doubts about her at all.
Su Qingyu was moved in her heart, but she remained calm on her face: "I will be taken care of by Mingyue, so I will be fine. As for you, please don't argue with anyone about anything about me outside."
"Also, no matter who uses me as a cover to ask you to do anything, don't believe it easily."
"If I really come to you for something, I will only ask Mingyue and Caiwei to come. Do you remember that?"
Su Qingru suddenly became nervous: "Sister, are you in any danger?"
Is it dangerous?
She seems to have always had it.
But now she was face to face with the pervert King Qi, coupled with Emperor Ming's disgust and guard against her, and the mysterious piano player, there were too many dangerous factors around her.
He gave this instruction because he was worried that he would implicate the mother and daughter.
"There's no danger. Aren't you afraid of danger?"
"Okay, okay, come in quickly!"
Seeing the mother and daughter entering the yard with one step and three turns, Su Qingyu and Mingyue got on the carriage.
When they returned to the palace, Lu Yuncheng was nowhere to be seen.
Su Qingyu was eager to inform Lu Yuncheng of the clues she got at Prince Qi's Mansion today, so she called the housekeeper to ask about Lu Yuncheng's whereabouts, and then went to the study alone.
Just as she was about to knock on the door and go in, she heard a very familiar voice.
"My lord, are you serious about not investigating the matter about the Gu insects?"
It's Zhuang Zhou!
Zhuang Zhou turned out to be Lu Yuncheng's man!
Su Qingyu suppressed the shock in her heart and resisted pushing the door open and going in.
In the room, Lu Yuncheng was silent for a while, then seemed to have made up his mind: "No more investigating!"
"The Gu Chong case has clearly been traced to King Qi, but not only did he not have the intention to investigate thoroughly, he actually took away my right to investigate the Gu Chong case! All the evidence about the case was taken away by him. He It’s obvious enough that you want to keep King Qi’s heart.”
"I also know that the source of the Gu insects is the key to the case, but as the emperor, he no longer cares about it. What should I do if you ask me? I want to take it step by step, but no one is willing to give it to me. Opportunities like this.”
"I have tolerated this for five years! In these five years, I have not been able to avenge the eldest brother! If I continue to tolerate it, how can I have the face to see the eldest brother in the future?"
"They are the ones who forced me to seize the throne, so that I, the king, have no choice but to fight."
