Chapter 530 Li Huaizhi came to the door
When Su Lingyue woke up, she was still holding Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu, without clothes on, is indeed easy to hug.
Xiao Yu was still sleeping soundly.
Xiao Yu had spent a lot of energy yesterday, so it seemed that he would need to sleep a little longer than usual.
Thinking of what Xiao Yu said last night, Su Lingyue's heart moved slightly, and she gently moved her hand on Xiao Yu's belly.
Xiao Yu didn't react much, but Su Lingyue backed out on her own.
Even if she had to do something, she hoped to convey her love to Xiao Yu when he was awake.
Su Lingyue got up carefully, folded Xiao Yu's underwear and placed it on the bedside, then called the maid to wash up.
"Miss, you were tired yesterday. Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Caidie asked in a concerned voice.
Su Lingyue said: "Your Highness was tired yesterday, and the recent diet and medicine need to be adjusted. I will rewrite the prescription later."
After washing up, Su Lingyue rewrote the diet therapy prescription and decoction prescription and gave them to Caidie.
But as soon as I came out of the bedroom, I met Yan Qing who was in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" Su Lingyue asked.
Yan Qing paused for a moment and asked anxiously, "Princess, is the prince awake?
"no, what happened?"
Yan Qing lowered his head and thought for a moment, then he made up his mind and told the story of the fire in Prince Jing's mansion last night.
"Why burn Prince Jing's mansion?" Su Lingyue was puzzled.
Thinking that Su Lingyue also knew that King Jing Xiao Changan had ill intentions towards her, Yan Qing told Su Lingyue what he saw in the attic.
Su Lingyue didn't expect that Xiao Changan would be like this.
She didn't know when Xiao Changan had such dirty thoughts about her, but when she thought of the situation in the attic, Su Lingyue felt nauseous and chilled.
Yan Qing said angrily, "How dare the King of Jing defile the princess like this? Not to mention the prince, even we cannot tolerate it. We just didn't expect the Dali Temple to come to our door so soon."
It turned out that Prince Su's Mansion and Duke Dingguo's Mansion were distributing porridge and spreading good karma yesterday, which coincided with the time when thieves broke into Prince Jing's Mansion and people from Li's Mansion were assassinated. Naturally, Marble also suspected Xiao Yu and Su Heng.
However, one of them was a member of the royal family, and the other was related to the royal family. It was not easy for the Dali Temple to arrest and interrogate them directly, so Duan Xu and Li Huaizhi went to their homes to inquire in person early in the morning.
It was said to be an inquiry, but in fact it was an interrogation.
Butler Wu gave a general idea based on Yan Qing's instructions. The Dali Temple could not believe it completely, so they naturally had to ask the master of the mansion.
Xiao Yu was supposed to handle this matter, but Xiao Yu fell asleep. Yan Qing was worried that Su Lingyue did not have as much experience as Xiao Yu and would not be able to deal with those old foxes.
Su Lingyue also understood Yan Qing’s concerns.
After explaining this to Yan Qing, Su Lingyue walked straight towards the palace hall without much hesitation.

Outside the hall, there were five or six guards with swords standing. Li Huaizhi stood in the hall with his hands behind his back.
Su Lingyue walked to the entrance of the hall and spoke first. "Sir Li, I wonder what brings you to your house so early in the morning?"
When Li Huaizhi saw that the person coming was Su Lingyue, he bowed and then stated his purpose.
"I shouldn't have disturbed the prince and princess, but something happened at the Jing Palace and the Li Palace yesterday, and the princess must have heard about it. Due to my duties, I have no choice but to come here to ask the prince and princess a few questions."
Su Lingyue smiled and said, "Of course, Lord Li also knows that the prince is ill. He accompanied me to my mother's house for sacrifice yesterday and is tired. He hasn't gotten up yet. If you have any questions, Lord Li can ask me."
Li Huaizhi cupped his hands, "Yes, then I will dare to do so."
After saying this, Li Huaizhi put on his usual stern and majestic expression, which was the same expression he had when he was trying prisoners in the Dali Temple.
"Princess, as far as I know, you have never distributed porridge or money on your mother's death anniversary before. Why did you start distributing porridge and money this year?"
Su Lingyue looked at Li Huaizhi with a hint of sadness and said, "Lord Li should know that yesterday was the eighteenth anniversary of my mother's death. In Buddhism, eighteen is not a good number, so it is different from previous years. I just hope that my deceased mother will accumulate blessings."
"I have investigated. The prince and princess came to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion yesterday. They were accompanied by two guards and a maid. However, when they left, the patrol saw three guards and two maids. Can I see the extra two people?"
Su Lingyue's heart tightened.
Li Huaizhi has been to Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
Considering the feud between his father and the palace, he must have exaggerated it, which is why Li Huaizhi pressed on so relentlessly.
Su Lingyue frowned slightly and questioned Li Huaizhi unhappily, "Lord Li, do you suspect that the riot last night was caused by Prince Su's mansion?"
Li Huaizhi looked straight at Su Lingyue, not giving in. "Princess, you are worrying too much. It's just a matter of official business, a normal process. If it wasn't done by those two, I will clarify it for the palace."
Su Lingyue breathed a sigh of relief, compromising. "Never mind. They are just a maid and an ordinary servant. Neither of them knows martial arts. Lord Li can meet them if he wants. But I don't want this kind of suspicion to happen again."
She turned around and told Caidie beside her, "Call Ajing and Xiaoyan."
Caidie looked at Su Lingyue, stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, "Yes, Miss."
Walking out of the hall, Caidie recalled what Su Lingyue had just said. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind and she strode towards the inner courtyard.
After waiting for a cup of tea, Caidie appeared in the hall with Caiyi and several other people.
They are all the people on the carriage yesterday.
Li Huaizhi looked at these people and called out to them to come in.
A few patrol soldiers came in, saluted, and accurately picked out Yan Qing and Li Jing who joined later from among the few people.
Su Lingyue said, "These two maids and the boy went to meet the prince and me yesterday. If you have any questions, please ask."
Li Huaizhi looked at the two of them.
This maid named Ajing wore the same clothes as the other maids, but her figure was not as delicate as the others, and she had a heroic look. Her cold almond eyes were lowered, and she looked very submissive.
The guard named Xiaoyan had a square face that was not really good-looking. His big round eyes revealed a clear stupidity. He stood there stiffly, stealing glances at Li Huaizhi from time to time.
The maid looked even more suspicious.
Li Huaizhi winked and a guard outside the hall strode in, holding the wrists of the two men with both hands.
Ajing and Yanqing showed pain on their faces. Yanqing bared his teeth and cried out in pain. Ajing bit his lip, sweat broke out on his forehead, but he didn't utter a word.
"Master Li, that's enough!"
Su Lingyue scolded coldly: "It is your job to call people to cooperate with your investigation. Now you want to kill my servants in the palace, in front of me!"
"How is it?" Li Huaizhi asked the guard who was holding their wrists.
The guard shook his head, "I can't detect any internal energy in their bodies! They don't know Kung Fu."
Li Huaizhi then bowed his hands to Su Lingyue to apologize, "Princess, I must investigate thoroughly. I have offended you just now. Please forgive me, Princess."
Su Lingyue held her temper, looked at Li Huaizhi coldly and said in a deep voice: "It's not that I don't understand that Lord Li is handling the case, but I don't want to see this kind of slander against the palace again. The prince is not in good health. If this makes him angry and hurts his body, I will definitely put the blame on Lord Li."
After saying that, Su Lingyue pointed at the man who had hurt Yan Qing and A Jing, and ordered the guards in the palace: "You, give him two slaps, and this matter will be even. Otherwise, others will think that we are from Prince Su's palace and are easy to bully."
After receiving the order, the guard raised his hand and slapped the man who had just tested Ajing and Yan Qing's martial arts on the shoulder. With a click, the man's shoulder was dislocated.
Li Huaizhi was in the wrong and dared not say more. He ordered his men to help the man away.

After the others left, Yan Qing asked Su Lingyue: "Princess, when can our skills be restored?"
Su Lingyue asked Caidie beside her, "How much medicine did you give them?"
Caidie blinked and said, "One bottle per person."
Su Lingyue held his forehead with his hand.
She remembered telling Caidie and Caiyi about the "Qugong Powder". One pill would make ordinary martial artists unable to use their martial arts for an hour, but Caidie actually gave them a bottle!
"Probably about ten days!" Su Lingyue felt a little guilty.
Yan Qing looked indifferent and laughed, "That's good now. I can play chess and drink tea with the prince, and let others do the hard work."
Li Jing folded her arms and glanced at Su Lingyue and Caidie, the look in her eyes that wanted to kill someone could not be hidden.
Caidie was so scared that she shrank her head and stammered, "I don't know how long they will stay, and I'm not sure if Yanqing and Sister Ajing are so good at martial arts, whether the medicine will work..."
