Chapter 412

Luo Qinghan said calmly: "Originally, Gu was going to find someone to pretend to be you and lure the killer into taking the bait, but I didn't expect you to follow me, so Gu had to respect your wishes."

Luo Yechen was ashamed and angry, her face flushed red.

"You can tell me clearly! As long as you say there will be assassins, I will definitely not come!"

"How does Gu know that the people around you are unreliable? What if you accidentally leak the news? For the sake of safety, it's better for Gu or not to tell you."

Luo Yechen was particularly unconvinced.

He is not stupid, how could he leak such an important matter? !

He also wanted to argue with the prince.

But Luo Qinghan didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, and said directly to Zhao Xian and Xiao Lingfeng.

"You take these two killers and the thief down with you, and interrogate them strictly."

"Here!"

The killers and thieves were rudely dragged away.

A part of Yulinwei was taken away, and most of the rest were left in place.

At this time, they were all wearing the clothes of ordinary people, and at first glance, it really looked like that.

In addition to Yulinwei, there are many people present who are pretending to be catchers and yamen. They are seconded by the prince from the county government. Since they are all locals, they pretend to be more real, so that the killers are not aware of it. strange.

The magistrate had been hiding in a nearby teahouse. When he saw that the killer had been caught, he immediately ran out of the teahouse and knelt down and saluted the prince.

"Wei Chen pays respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Luo Qinghan asked him to get up and answer.

After the county magistrate stood up, he was still slightly hunched over, looking carefully to please.

"Congratulations to Your Highness for successfully catching the killer. Your Highness is wise and martial. No matter how cunning those killers are, they are no match for you!"

Luo Qinghan said in a low voice, "Thanks to you for borrowing manpower to Gu, Gu will remember your merits."

The county magistrate was flattered: "It is an honor for Wei Chen to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

He originally learned that the prince, the county magistrate's nemesis, was coming to Huaizhao County, and he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep well for several days, and he was even mentally prepared to return to his hometown in advance.

Fortunately, the prince did not attack this poor county magistrate, but instead gave him a chance to perform.

It felt like a dream, so beautiful that it was a little unreal.

The county magistrate graciously sent the prince and his party back to the inn.

Eunuch Chang had already prepared hot water, and when he saw the prince and Concubine Xiao came back, he immediately brought the hot water to the house and let the two masters bathe.

The two of them were sitting in the tub and taking a bath, separated by a screen.

Xiao Xixi soaked her whole body lazily, and felt so comfortable.

She remembered what happened at the temple fair, and there were some things she didn't quite understand.

"How can His Highness be sure that those killers will act at the temple fair?"

Luo Qinghan said slowly: "Last night, I asked people to check the local stronghold of Xueyulou. The stronghold was already empty, but according to the descriptions of the surrounding residents, there were still people in that stronghold the day before yesterday.

Gu guessed that the killers should not go far, but hid in Huaizhao County, looking for opportunities to start.

It happens to be New Year's Eve today, and there will be a temple fair in the evening. There are people everywhere at the temple fair, which is obviously a great opportunity to do it.

As long as you and the eldest prince go out to the temple fair alone, the killers who are hiding in the dark will definitely take action. "

Killers are people who lick blood on the tip of a knife.

Even if they guessed that the other party may have taken precautions, under the temptation of huge money, they still can't help but want to take risks.

Xiao Xixi sighed with emotion: "People die for wealth, and birds die for food."

From the other side of the screen came the sound of rushing water.

Xiao Xixi asked, "Have you washed it?"

Luo Qinghan replied in a low voice, "Yeah."

Instead of calling someone in to serve him, he wiped the water off himself, put on his bedclothes, and sat down on the couch.

He took out a fat-headed fish jade pendant from the clothes he changed.

He found this by accident when he was visiting the temple fair just now. He thought it was quite cute, so he bought it.

The material used for this jade pendant is not very good. There are a lot of cotton wool and cracks in it, but the carving is good.

When he saw it for the first time, he inexplicably felt that it was suitable for Xiao Xixi.

Luo Qinghan found a red rope, put on the pendant, and then hid it under the pillow.

Xiao Xixi finished taking a bath and got dressed,

Luo Qinghan called someone in to pour out the bath water.

After everyone left, only the prince and Xiao Xixi were left in the house.

Xiao Xixi suddenly conjured a small purse like a magic trick.

"Dangdang! Your Highness, guess what this is?"

Luo Qinghan calmly spit out four words: "Your wallet."

Xiao Xixi: "No, it's your wallet now!"

After speaking, she put the purse into the prince's hand.

Luo Qinghan didn't know why: "What are you doing with the purse for Gu?"

Xiao Xixi said with bright eyes, "This is the lucky money for you."

"I'm not a child, so I don't need New Year's money."

Xiao Xixi: "It's just for auspiciousness, so don't take it seriously."

Luo Qinghan opened the purse and found three copper plates inside.

The first prince gave Xiao Xixi three taels of silver before, and Xiao Xixi used that money to buy a lot of food. Luo Qinghan kept watching, knowing that she had three cents left in the end.

It seemed that the lucky money she gave him was the remaining three cents.

Luo Qinghan: "You really know how to live without wasting a penny."

Xiao Xixi smiled, then stretched out her two claws and said eagerly: "Now it's your turn to give your concubine some lucky money."

Luo Qinghan put the small purse into his arms and said slowly.

"Gu didn't prepare New Year's money for you."

Xiao Xixi was disappointed: "You didn't care about such an important link."

Luo Qinghan: "But Gu has prepared something else for you."

Xiao Xixi immediately regained her spirits.

"What is it?"

Luo Qinghan took out the jade pendant from under the pillow and handed it to her.

"It's for you."

With the dim light of the candlelight, Xiao Xixi could see clearly that it was the jade pendant of a fat-headed fish, she couldn't help but smile and rolled her eyes: "This fish looks so fat, it looks delicious!"

Luo Qinghan looked at her little face and agreed: "Gu also thinks so."

Xiao Xixi put the pendant on her neck.

She asked ostentatiously, "Does it look good?"

Luo Qinghan looked at it carefully for a moment, and answered truthfully: "It's normal."

Xiao Xixi: "..."

Isn't this the pendant you gave me? Are you saying it's normal? Who are you trying to piss off? !

Luo Qinghan: "The material of this pendant is not good, and it is not suitable for you. I will look back and find another good material and re-carve a pendant for you."

Xiao Xixi's blasted hair was instantly smoothed out.

That's about it!

She sat down next to the prince and announced.

"Tonight is New Year's Eve, we have to keep the year old, and we can't go to bed until after midnight."

...

There are only three chapters tonight, good night everyone~
