Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 925

Luo Qingyan paused for a while and continued, "But I want to know what Xia Huanyu said about what happened that year? Why shouldn't Xia Houjing know about it and keep everyone under wraps?"

Yun Shang gently stroked Bao'er's back while Looking at the ripples on the lake that were blown by the wind. After a long silence, she said, "First of all, you have to figure out which year it was. Since Xia Huanyu had told Liu Yinfeng not to tell Xia Houjing, Liu Yinfeng must have known it. Xia Huanyu knew Liu Yinfeng after Lady Liu entered the palace. What happened after Lady Liu entered the palace that Xia Huanyu tried every means to hide?"

A light flashed in Yun Shang's mind. She suddenly turned to Luo Qingyan and asked, "Is it about the death of Lady Liu?"

Perhaps it was because Yun Shang turned around too fast and Bao'er in her arms was a little uncomfortable. He groaned. Yun Shang quickly patted him on the back to comfort him and made him fall asleep again.

"I've heard a lot about Lady Liu's death. I once asked Liu Yinfeng why Xia Huanyu favored the seventh Prince. Liu Yinfeng said that maybe it was because Xia Huanyu felt guilty for the seventh Prince. Many people in the Palace said that Lady Liu was killed by Xia Huanyu himself. Most rumors said that it was because Xia Huanyu suddenly went crazy on the anniversary of the Empress Hua's death that he killed Lady Liu. The seventh Prince was also seriously injured by his former majesty, leaving behind the root of his disease. It was said that Empress Hua killed Lady Liu because she couldn't bear to see the emperor had a new wife. Xia Huanyu had also specially invited many Taoists and monks. The so-called masters also said so, and the rumors had become more and more serious. Later, Xia Huanyu also killed some servants as a warning to others, which stopped the rumor."

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, with a gleam shining in them. "I felt it was very strange before. It was most likely that someone made use of Empress Hua to deal with Lady Liu and the seventh Prince. However, Xia Huanyu didn't defend Empress Hua, nor did he investigate the truth. He just ordered the palace to keep the secret. But this method seems to acquiesce in the fact that those rumors are true."

Luo Qingyan had never taken this matter into account. Hearing Yun Shang's words, he also felt that it was full of doubts, especially Xia Huanyu's attitude. It seemed that he was trying to hide something. Perhaps, the saying of ghosts came from Xia Huanyu himself.

Yun Shang thought for a while and said, "It's worth investigating. Although Xia Huanyu had killed some people, he couldn't kill all of them. I'll order people to look for some old people in the palace, especially those who have served Lady Liu. As long as it has happened, it can't be concealed forever."

Luo Qingyan nodded slightly. After a moment of silence, he said, "Then I'll send someone to look for the people who used to serve in the Mansion of the Liu clan, and even Liu Jin's hometown. Hearing you talk about this, I think of one thing that I suspected before."

Luo Qingyan touched his sleeve and sat down in the pavilion. "In the past, the people of the Liu Mansion became rich because Lady Liu entered the palace. They all got a lot of benefits. Liu Jin was just a teacher in a small town before, but he had been promoted to the Field Marshal. No matter how favored Lady Liu was, Xia Huanyu wouldn't be so stupid. Besides, Liu Yinfeng is the adopted son of Liu Jin. You have seen Liu Yinfeng's talent, but what do you think of Liu Jin? "
