Xiao Xixi repeated what Shang Kui had just said to himself.

Luo QingHan looked up at her.

"Do you suspect that the incense attack hall has contact with Hongguo public?"

Xiao Xi held his cheek with one hand, rubbed his fingers along the edge of the chessboard, and murmured.

"In fact, it's not suspicious. I just think there's something strange about it. We just went to the attack incense hall yesterday. At night, a girl went to the Duke of Hong. Then the girl was killed the next day. It's too coincidental."

Luo QingHan: "since you think hongguogong may have a problem, you might as well go and meet him directly."

Xiao Cuixi: "can't you scare the snake?"

Luo QingHan: "maybe it will lead the snake out of the cave."

Xiao Xixi put down the last piece: "I won."

Luo QingHan looked at the stubborn white son on the chessboard, kept silent for a moment and said, "come again."

Xiao Xixi: "I'm not coming. I'm going to read the script."

Luo QingHan: "look at the script, where is it interesting to play chess?"

Xiao Xixi: "that's much more interesting!"

She stood up and ran back to read the script with Princess Li and Yao Jieyu.

The three didn't stop until noon.

Imperial concubine Li and Yao Jieyu borrowed their unfinished script and planned to take it back and read it. When they finished reading it, they would return it to the imperial concubine.

Xiao Xixi told him, "it's OK to read the story, but don't forget to give a pertinent evaluation after reading it. The palace has to give people a score."

Just a few comments, little meaning! Princess Li and Yao Jieyu readily agreed.

After lunch, Luo QingHan and Xiao Xixi left the palace and went to the Hongguo mansion.

As the younger brother of the empress dowager, Hong Guogong is not young. He is now 58 years old. He was born tall and thin. He always likes to dress up as a Taoist. He seems to be a pure hearted man with few desires. In fact, he is very lecherous inside.

When he was young, he often lingered among flowers. He slept all the slightly beautiful servant girls in his family. The concubine room was room after room. There were more outer rooms and pink confidants kept outside, and they couldn't count.

Later, I probably played too hard, hollowed out my body and got sick.

After he recovered from his illness, he restrained a lot, and went to the Taoist temple to burn incense and donate money every three or five times. He often wore a Taoist robe on weekdays.

It seems that doing so can make yourself really clear.

But in fact, he is just a little more restrained than before. There are still a lot of women in the backyard.

With so many women, disputes are inevitable. The Hongguo government has made a lot of jokes about this, which once became the laughing stock of aristocratic circles in aristocratic families.

But hongguogong himself doesn't care.

Anyway, those people don't feel what he should do or what he should do in front of him. No one can control him except the Empress Dowager.

When he learned that the emperor and his imperial concubine had suddenly visited, Hong Guogong was startled.

He pushed away his beloved concubine, put on his clothes and shoes in a hurry, and hurried out to pick him up.

Because he was in a hurry, when he ran out of the gate, he accidentally tripped over the threshold and almost fell in public.

If it was normal, he would be angry and let people dismantle the threshold.

But now the emperor's carriage was parked at the door. He dared not lose his temper. He had to pretend that nothing had happened, ran down the stairs and bowed respectfully.

"Wei Chen paid a visit to the emperor, the imperial concubine and empress."

When the door opened, Luo QingHan and Xiao Xixi walked down first.

Xiao Xi looked at the Duke of Hong.

From the aspect of appearance, this person has enjoyed rich clothes and food since he was a child. When he grew up, he enjoyed all his glory and wealth. He is a very good life.

However, this man has an evil heart and has an evil intention in his eyes.

I'm afraid it will end badly.

Luo QingHan said quietly, "I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen my uncle for a long time, so I wanted to come to your house and have a seat. I didn't say hello to you in advance. Don't you blame me for my abruptness?"

The Duke of Hong Kingdom hurriedly said, "how could it be? Your majesty can come to the cold house and make it shine. It's too late for me to be flattered. How can you blame you?"

He respectfully led people into the house and offered good tea.

Luo QingHan casually asked about the recent situation of the Duke of Hong.

Hongguogong naturally answers all questions.

One asked and one answered, and the conversation was very harmonious.

Xiao Xixi nibbled at the cake while quietly observing the words and deeds of the Duke of Hong.

She found that the Duke looked a little similar to the empress dowager, but because he was immersed in wine and lust all year round, he looked thin and drooping at the corners of his eyes.

When she finished a plate of cakes, she politely expressed that she wanted to go to the Gong room.

Hongguogong asked the steward Mammy to lead her.

Xiao Xixi came out of Gong's room, pretended to be curious and wandered in the yard for a while.

Mammy in charge did not stop, but followed her step by step.

Just once, Xiao Xi ran into two concubines.

Those two are the concubines of the Duke of Hong. They are making a noise about a small matter at the moment, and the noise is quite loud.

Xiao Xi wants to come over and see what's going on.

The steward Mammy, who had been silent, finally spoke.

"The imperial concubine and empress still don't want to pass. Don't let this back house trivia disturb your mood."

Xiao Xi had to stop.

When she turned and left, she happened to hear a concubine shouting and scolding.

"I knew you had a crush on Mr. Ye like the silver cream last night. You sluts eating a bowl and looking at the pot, I'm going to report you in front of the Lord!"

It seemed that someone was going to persuade the quarrel, and the noise gradually decreased.

Xiao Xixi returned to the house and continued to eat his tea as if nothing had happened.

When the conversation was over, Luo QingHan left the Hongguo mansion with Xiao Xixi.

After seeing them off, the Duke of Hong immediately put away the smile on his face, called the steward Mammy and asked the imperial concubine what she had done in the backyard? Why did you go to Gong's room for so long?

The steward didn't dare to hide and told the whole story.

After hearing this, Hong Guogong was so angry that he immediately asked someone to kill the quarrelling concubine and throw the body out to feed the dog.

Xiao Xixi and Luo QingHan take a carriage back to the palace.

As soon as they arrived at the palace, they heard that Shang Kui asked to see them.

Shangkui respectfully tunnel.

"The identity of the girl who died in the Museum of the fragrant house has been identified. Her name is silver frost. This year, she is sixteen years old. She is a famous prostitute in the Museum of Xiang Xiang, playing the pipa very well. There are few materials on her household registered residence, and they are very vague. They want to verify the truth and the false, and are very sleepy."

Xiao Xixi: "her name is yinshuang?"

Shang Kui nodded: "yes."

Xiao Xi thought of the quarrel he heard in the Hongguo mansion.

When the two concubines quarreled, they mentioned two people: yinshuang and Mr. Ye.

Originally, she thought that Yin Shuang went to the Hongguo mansion last night to find the Hongguo Duke. Now it doesn't seem so. The person Yin Shuang really wants to find should be Mr. Ye.

So here comes the question....

Who is that Mr. Ye?

……

Good morning, everyone~
