C236 (2/2)

Su Li smiled at them, ”I know what you guys are thinking, I will let you carry me after I wash up.”

”Yes.” The two maidservants then smiled and went to prepare the bath water.

Mo Lianjin's face was sullen, he bent down and whispered into Su Li's ear, ”After you wash yourself, how can you still let them hug you? If you want to hug, it's me. ”

Su Li retorted, ”You don't seem to be serious, on this trip to the capital, haven't you eaten enough?”

After showering, he changed into a new set of clothes.

Nanny Chu and the others had also prepared dinner. Although it was not as good as the food at the palace feast, it still had a homey taste.

Zhu Qian also came out to eat dinner. Seeing her red eyes, Su Li could not help but ask, ”Did my big senior bully you?”

”He won't marry me.”

”Err …” Su Li picked up a chicken leg for Zhu Qian, ”What about you?”

”If I'm full, I'll continue pestering him. If he doesn't marry me, I'll pester him everyday.”

Zhu Qian was not an unreasonable person, he only took the chicken leg and gnawed on it, his small appearance made him look like a soldier who was about to enter the battlefield.

Su Li could not help but laugh. No wonder Feng Jiu was afraid of him, the girl was not afraid of hurting others, she was proficient in fighting techniques, a person who loved freedom like Feng Jiu, could she not hide?

Zhu Qian finished his meal and continued to pester Feng Jiu.

After Nanny Chu left the front hall with the servant girls, only Su Li and Mo Lianjin remained.

”Did something happen when we went to the Palace of Gentle Snow today?”

Su Li remembered the empress dowager's awkward question, he didn't mention it and just shook his head. ”Nothing much, I just gave her a prescription.”

”What do you think of this case?” Mo Lianjin's stern face had a trace of an imposing aura, his brows knitted tightly, as though he was feeling anxious.

Su Li's expression became more serious as well.

”The murderer left the next victim's name, this is a provocation, and also a self-inflating action. He only attacked the officials in the court, I think, the names of the dead shouldn't be random, but they have some deep meaning. For example, he thinks the dead deserve death, and the dead are still alive, so, he wants to take justice for the heavens.”

”You mean …”

”This is just my guess. To be specific, I need to see what Minister Liu and the others found at the scene of death.” Su Li bit his lower lip, ”Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that the culprit is psychologically perverted, paranoid, just like the Lin Sanniang.”

Mo Lianjin no longer spoke, retracted his gaze, and retracted all of his emotions.

The next day.

Su Li hurriedly finished his breakfast and changed the medicine for Feng Jiu. Then, he prepared to go to the justice courts to see what was related to the case.

Mo Lianjin did not return early in the morning, so Stars Pet Chain Supermarket waited outside the Duke Palace.

Just as she was about to board the carriage, a little boy suddenly ran over with something in his hand.

”Elder sister, there is an elder brother that asked me to give this to you.”

Su Li took the things, and the little boy ran off without a trace.

When she opened it, she found that it was about some jargon and insights about watching the stars.

Floating Life!

Su Li looked around, but he did not see anyone around him.

Right now, the Emperor An was sending people everywhere to find him, how could he stay in the capital city?

Sighing, he put his things away and got on the carriage, telling Stars Pet Chain Supermarket to hurry to the justice courts.

In the justice courts of the Supreme Court, Liu Ming paced back and forth, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

Today was the final day. Tomorrow was the day the murderer would come knocking for his life. How could he not be anxious?

Seeing Su Li walk in, he couldn't wait and went to receive him. Wiping away his cold sweat, he said, ”Prince's Wife, I've waited for you for a long time, you've finally come. The relevant evidence has already been prepared and is just waiting for you to take a look.”
