The carriage was moving on the road, and it was not slow. The man followed the carriage all the way, gave a low response, and then disappeared again.
The guards surrounding Qinglan Lake also left cleanly. Song Qinghuan was lying on the ground motionless, the clothes on his abdomen were stained with blood, and he looked lifeless.
Xiao Jingchuan knelt down in front of her with a sad expression, his eyes were red, and he kowtowed three times without knowing what he said. Then he picked up Song Qinghuan and took his two attendants to Qinglan Lake.
Travel to a place less visited by people.
The two Chang Sui dug a pit that was not deep but not shallow. Xiao Jingchuan pursed his lips and then put Song Qinghuan into the pit. He found a clean handkerchief from his arms and covered her face, murmuring: "
Mother, I'm sorry."
He lowered his eyes, then stood up ruthlessly, turned his back, not daring to look at her, and ordered: "Cover the soil."
The two Chang Sui looked at each other without saying a word. They just followed the instructions and covered the lifeless Song Qinghuan with the soil they had just dug out one by one. They were not done until a lump bulged up on the flat ground.
Xiao Jingchuan's face was pale. He took one look at the grave without even a tombstone and did not dare to look at it a second time. He turned around and left in a hurry.
The three masters and servants left, and then the plainclothes guard who was hiding in the dark appeared, walked to the grave, stepped on it a few times, and then stabbed it twice with a knife, raising a sarcastic expression on his lips.
With a smile, he turned around and left with satisfaction.
Xiao Jingchuan didn't go far, and when he saw the man's sword with a cold light piercing into the grave, his heart was lifted. It wasn't until the man walked far away that he asked: "Is there anything strange?"
"Nothing found yet." A voice came from the darkness, but no one was seen.
Xiao Jingchuan nodded, and immediately went back with his two Chang Sui, dug out Song Qinghuan who had just been buried in the soil, quickly put him on the carriage, and left here.
Not long after, a female corpse of similar stature was brought here and the hole was filled.
Xiao Ci left Qinglan Lake and went directly back to Prince Rui's Mansion, but he was completely distracted and paced back and forth in the house in annoyance.
Xiao Jingtong didn't know what was going on outside, so he brought Xiao Jingrou to look for him, and asked: "Dad, have you found mother?"
Xiao Ci's eyes were full of scarlet and he looked at Xiao Jingtong, but he didn't say anything for a while and didn't know what to say.
Xiao Jingtong didn't notice anything was wrong with him. Seeing him like this, he pretended that Song Qinghuan hadn't been found. He frowned and said, "Dad, I really want you to coax mother. Why do you want to make her angry?"
It's fine now. Mom left a piece of letter and didn't say where she was going. How can I find it?"
Song Qinghuan was indeed smuggled out by Nan Yao. She disappeared, but she left a letter imitating her handwriting. The letter did not say where she was going, except that she couldn't face Xiao Ci and wanted to be quiet...
.
The handwriting was very similar, and even the tone of voice was exactly the same. When Xiao Ci saw the letter, he was not suspicious at all. He really thought that Song Qinghuan had run away from home in a fit of anger.
Nowadays, the situation in the DPRK is unstable, Xiao Enyin is scheming behind the scenes, and Song Qinghuan is likely to have clues about Yu Xi. It will be very dangerous for him to be alone outside.
Immediately, he ordered to go down and find the person no matter what.
Xiao En went to Beijing with Emperor Chengxing on his back, and had already done a lot of things secretly. Song Qinghuan was living outside, so Xiao Ci inevitably wanted to divert Xiao En's attention. The reason for the search fell on Xiao Jingchuan, and he had no choice but to stand still and meet Xiao En.
Xiao En will talk to you later.
Xiao Ci didn't speak for a while. Xiao Jingtong took it as a sign that he felt bad and stopped blaming him, then turned to comfort him: "Dad, don't worry too much. Mom has always been a smart person and nothing will happen to her."
Yes."
Then he said: "I just feel uncomfortable and want to go out for a breather. Once the anger subsides, I will come back naturally. Besides, how can she be so cruel to abandon us?"
Xiao Jingtong's voice was soft, and Xiao Ci's panic calmed down slightly. For a moment, he didn't know how to talk to Xiao Jingtong. Song Qinghuan was reluctant to leave them behind, and would not be able to return to Prince Rui's Mansion in a short time.
Looking at the innocent look in the two girls' eyes, Xiao Ci sighed deeply, and suddenly remembered the weirdness of the matter. He hurriedly found the letter left by Song Qinghuan on the bookshelf, and read it carefully from beginning to end.
When he realized something was wrong, his face suddenly turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words: "Nanyao..."
Xiao Jingtong didn't know what happened. He stretched his head and glanced at the letter. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Ci was silent for a while, but his face was horribly gloomy. After a long while, he said to Xiao Jingtong: "Take your sister back first. Don't let it freeze in the cold weather. Dad has something to do now. Let's talk later."
But not even a single sentence was written about Song Qinghuan.
Xiao Jingtong knew that Xiao Ci was always busy with many things every day, so he did not bother him at the moment. He nodded and agreed obediently, and then took Xiao Jingrou back to Hanliyuan.
After sending the two children away, Xiao Ci was about to go out with the letter in his arms, but he bumped into Xiao Jingchuan who was returning. He paused and asked, "How is it?"
Xiao Jingchuan was covered in mud and in a miserable state, but his expression looked determined: "The Eighth Emperor did send someone to watch. Someone came up to look at me just after I left."
He conveyed his fearful mood at that time, and then added: "It's not convenient on the road, so I had to bandage my mother casually and let Aunt Zhou escort her to Liaodong. I also secretly sent someone to follow her. She should be fine."
Only then did Xiao Ci let go of his thoughts. Xiao En had been hiding for many years. He used to look timid and timid, but in fact he was extremely ruthless.
The words he said at Qinglan Lake, and then stabbed Song Qinghuan and asked Xiao Jingchuan to bury her, only made Xiao En really think that he had got the thing and used Song Qinghuan completely.
Xiao En was always a person who would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one person go. If he didn't let his guard down like this, Song Qinghuan would also die in his hands sooner or later.
"As long as it's done." Xiao Ci responded tiredly, and then said: "You have someone secretly send a letter to Liaodong, and tell Uncle Song that he will be ready to send someone to take care of it as soon as possible."
Xiao Jingchuan worked carefully and immediately responded: "I have sent someone to deliver it."
The father and son exchanged a few words, and Xiao Ci was still waiting to go out. Aunt Zhou, who had followed Song Qinghuan to Liaodong all the way, suddenly turned back to the house.
As soon as he saw Xiao Ci, he panicked and said, "This subordinate deserves to die, something happened to the princess."
Xiao Ci's expression changed drastically and his heart became tense: "What's going on?"
Aunt Zhou said hurriedly: "Princess, the princess jumped off the cliff in her car.
