Everyone in the hall was shocked.

"Did you kill someone?" The Empress Dowager let go of Yu Lingge, whose shoulders were curled up, and asked urgently. "Who did you kill? Pei Le's men?"

"No!" Yu Lingge was so flustered that he spoke incoherently, "No murder!"

The Queen Mother was a little angry, "But Mother clearly heard you say that you killed someone!"

"No," Yu Lingge wanted to explain, but her explanation made people feel conflicted. "I didn't kill anyone, Pei Le thought I did!"

"Sit down first and wait until you calm down a little before we talk." After saying that, the Queen Mother helped Yu Lingge to sit down on the chair.

Tang Lin took the tea that was originally poured for the Queen Mother and said, "Drink the tea and take your time."

Yu Lingge held the tea cup with both hands, and after taking a sip of warm tea, Yu Lingge took a long breath, and finally relaxed a little bit from the tension in her heart.

The Queen Mother sat down next to her and asked patiently: "What happened to you and Pei Le?"

"He..." Speaking of Pei Le, Yu Lingge's eyes would always be filled with mist at the first moment, "He received a letter this morning!"

"What letter?" asked the Queen Mother. "Just one letter can make you treat each other as enemies?"

Yu Lingge swallowed her throat several times before she dared to tell the person who sent the letter, "Yes, it was an urgent letter sent by his confidant Ba Baili. The content of the letter refers to me killing his beloved!"

The Empress Dowager frowned in confusion, "His beloved? His beloved, isn't it you? Why does the Queen Mother feel that something is wrong the more she listens to it?"

Yu Lingge sniffed and choked: "No, Queen Mother, from the very beginning, Pei Le loved me, not me!"

What! Tang Lin and Yu Shengjun were shocked.

Yu Lingge continued: "Before I got married, Pei Le had a woman he liked. He married me just to keep Chu City safe. Over the years, we have been husband and wife in name and treated each other as guests, but we are not married.

In fact, although we share the same bed, we have different dreams!"

"Hey, you girl," the Queen Mother was furious, "You have been married for five years, why are you telling your mother this now?"

Yu Lingge glanced at Yu Shengjun, then lowered his head and cried, "I married in order to stabilize Chu City. Lingge didn't complain at all. If he was so selfish for himself, he would go back to the court to inform his mother and brother.

Ling Ge was afraid of bringing inevitable war to both sides, so over the years, Ling Ge could only endure this and spent several years with Pei Le!"

Yu Shengjun picked up the tea cup and drank the tea in one gulp. Then, he sat down angrily and said, "I have never seen anyone as stupid as you!"

"I'm sorry, brother Huang." Yu Lingge blamed himself, "It's because Lingge is not good and I've caused you trouble."

Tang Lin asked: "Why does Pei Le think you killed his beloved?"

Yu Lingge revealed: "Over the years, although this woman did not live in the City Lord's Mansion, she always had the opportunity to find me. She told me that she was Pei Le's favorite, and it was because of me that Pei Le did not marry her. At first

At that time, I sympathized with her, but I could not give up my position as the wife of the city lord to her. I am a princess of a country, and my existence is for the safety of Chu City. However, later this woman became more and more unreasonable. She actually

He asked me to take the initiative to show weakness to Pei Le and get out of Chucheng. He also said that this was what Pei Le meant. One day, I finally broke out and asked Pei Le for the theory. He said that I was unreasonable and did not give me a word.

Since then, we have been in a cold war until now!"

"Is it for the sake of peace between the two parties that you show affection on the surface?" Tang Lin asked.

Yu Lingge nodded, "Yes! Before leaving Chucheng, we had a talk. We didn't want the conflicts between us to bring crisis to Chucheng and Dayu! But I am in Xindu at the moment, leaving Chucheng.

So far away, where is the chance to kill his woman?"

Tang Lin said: "The top priority is to find Pei Le and his confidant who sent the letter first, and then the matter will come to light."

At this time, Yu Tianjiao bought a few buns not far from the entrance of Dongcheng, and then walked towards the door.

Yu Chengyun saw his eldest brother from a distance. He originally looked serious when checking out people leaving the city, but when he saw his eldest brother, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Have you not seen the eldest brother-in-law yet?" Yu Tianjiao brought over the hot buns he bought for him.

After being hungry for a long time, Yu Chengyun took the bun and stuffed it into his mouth. He couldn't speak clearly and said, "I didn't even see a shadow!"

Yu Tianjiao patted his brother's arm and said, "Brother, thank you for your hard work."

Yu Chengyun asked: "Brother Wang, do you know what happened?"

Yu Tianjiao nodded, and then said: "It was the eldest imperial sister and the eldest brother-in-law who had a conflict, and then the eldest brother-in-law ran away from home!"

"Why did my eldest brother-in-law do this behavior that only a child can do?" Yu Chengyun felt funny when he thought about it.

At this moment, not far behind Yu Tianjiao, a petite little girl with noodles in clear soup was carrying a big baggage on her back. She was holding her elderly grandparents with both hands and walking towards the city gate. Her petite and thin body was carrying a big baggage on her back.

It's very difficult to carry a burden and have to hold someone else's back.

When Yu Chengyun saw the three people, he put the buns into his brother's hands without saying a word, and then walked towards them.

When he reached the little girl, Yu Chengyun stopped and said, "Little sister, why are you carrying so many things?"

The little girl opened her big, watery and clear eyes and said: "Brother, my grandparents and I have been looking for our father and mother in the city for several days, but we can't find them. Now we only have to pay the cost of returning to our hometown, and we can't go back to our hometown anymore."

Stay in the city."

Looking at the little girl in front of him, who was about thirteen or fourteen years old, Yu Chengyun felt pity in his heart, "Old ones and young ones, can you walk home?"

The little girl said: "Yes, our home is in the next county!"

Yu Chengyun looked at the sky, and then said to his grandfather and grandson: "The sun has set. After leaving the city, it will be night. It is difficult to travel at night, let alone on foot. Why don't you stay in the city one more night and go back tomorrow morning?

Hire a carriage and start again?”

"We have no money to stay in the inn." The little girl lowered her head sadly.

Yu Chengyun touched his arms and cuffs, and when he didn't find any money, he suddenly realized that he didn't bring any money with him when he went out today.

"Wait a minute," Yu Chengyun said, standing up and running to Yu Tianjiao. Without waiting for Yu Tianjiao to ask what he was doing, he groped Yu Tianjiao's body.

The itching was unbearable, so Yu Tianjiao plucked his brother's hand away several times, "Chengyun, what are you doing?"

After groping for a while, Yu Chengyun finally took out a hundred-tael silver note from Brother Wang's sleeve, then returned to the little girl and put the bank note into the little girl's hand, "Here, I'll use it tonight."

With the money my brother gave me, I can stay in an inn and stay in the city for a few days to visit your father and mother."

"Brother..." Holding the hundred taels of silver notes in her hand, the little girl was dumbfounded.

Yu Chengyun touched her head and said softly: "Go and settle your grandparents, they can't stand the torment of the night."

"Thank you brother!"

After thanking Yu Chengyun, the little girl held Grandpa's hand and walked back. After walking a few steps, she looked back and saw Yu Tianjiao's back, imprinted in her eyes...

Before nightfall, the little girl settled her grandparents in the inn and asked the waiter to serve food, then she left the inn.

The Yu Tianjiao brothers, who were still at the gate of Dongcheng, received a letter from Yu Chengyun.

Yu Tianjiao asked: "What did you say?"

Yu Chengyun said: "It's the emperor's order. The four city gates will be closed two hours earlier tonight. Two hours... isn't that now?"

"Follow the order." After saying that, Yu Tianjiao looked at the city gate and shouted loudly: "The emperor has ordered, close the city gate immediately!"

After witnessing the city gate closing, Yu Tianjiao asked Yu Chengyun: "Brother, Brother Wang will return to the Prince Consort's Mansion later, where are you?"

Yu Chengyun said: "I will also go to the Prince Consort's Mansion to see the eldest princess."

Not long after leaving the city gate, walking on the brightly lit streets with bustling people coming and going, Yu Tianjiao always noticed someone following him, but when he turned around several times, he didn't see any suspicious figures.

After walking for a while, Yu Tianjiao stopped and said to Yu Chengyun: "Brother, Brother Wang has a small matter to take care of. You go back to the Prince Consort's Mansion first. I'll see you at the Prince Consort's Mansion later."

"Okay!" Yu Chengyun responded and left first.

Yu Tianjiao turned around, his soft eyes mixed with a hint of anger. He walked over, grabbed the little girl hiding behind a stall, and warned in a cold voice: "Why are you following..." Look

After realizing that it was the little girl he had rescued that afternoon, he changed his words and said, "Don't follow me!"

The little girl said nothing and looked at him with two big watery eyes. It turned out that the savior was a beautiful big brother.

Yu Tianjiao stopped talking and turned around to leave, but the little girl didn't listen to him. When he left, she followed him.

He stopped suddenly, and so did she.

He turned around and glared at her, "I told you not to follow me, why are you still following me?"

She was still looking at him innocently with her big watery eyes as before.

Next, no matter what Yu Tianjiao said, the little girl refused to leave. Helplessly, he stopped talking and allowed the little girl to continue to follow him.

When he arrived outside the Prince Consort's house, Yu Tianjiao turned around. This time, he found that the little girl was missing. Unknowingly, a trace of disappointment appeared on his face.

After he turned around and entered the mansion, the little girl walked out from a dark corner not far from the Prince Consort's Mansion. She looked at the Prince Consort's Mansion with a calm face, the spacious Prince Consort's Mansion, the Prince Consort's Mansion with two big stone lions at the door...

A group of people were thinking about it in the hall, where would Pei Le go?

Tang Lin came in from the outside and informed everyone, "You are still wondering where Pei Le is. Dinner is ready. Think about it after you eat!"

"Sister Huang, think carefully about where my brother-in-law might go." Yu Jingchu said to Yu Lingge, who was also distressed.

Yu Lingge said with a bitter expression, "Although I have lived with him for several years, I never interfere with where he likes to go!"

Everyone was busy thinking about where Pei Le would go, completely forgetting that Tang Lin was reminding everyone that it was time to eat.

Seeing everyone in such distress, Tang Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly. She didn't ask everyone to eat anymore, turned around and walked out of the hall, but she didn't go back to the dining hall, but left the Prince Consort's Mansion.

Standing at the door of the Prince Consort's Mansion, Tang Lin looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said helplessly: "It seems that I should go out and find him personally!"
