Sure enough, not long after, the palaces received news that Sun Zhao was seriously injured and needed to rest, and even the funeral of Emperor Jingduan was unable to attend.

Meng Hui and Princess Xian pursed their lips almost at the same time, considering whether to pretend to visit.

"It seems unreasonable not to go. We will take a walk after dinner later, and then send someone back home to send him something to show his wish." As cousin's aunt, the princess of the Virtue had completely disappointed with this nephew.

"Well, go out and find out what the assassin is." Meng Hui saw the assassin's face very clearly. A young man in his early twenties looked very outstanding and a little feminine. He was a type that he would never forget at first glance.

She vaguely felt that this person was probably Song Ming, who had admired Sun Zhao for a long time and was willing to seduce Sun Yian for him!

When Meng Hui read all this again, he felt that Sun Zhao must have been familiar with books such as "One Hundred Ways of Rebellion", "The Art of Palace Fighting", and "How to Become a Great Winner of the Royal Family". If the Emperor and the Queen were not an old fry, he might have really been able to sit on the throne firmly.

"What are you thinking?" Princess Xian suddenly asked.

"I was thinking that the assassin is likely to be Song Ming." Meng Hui answered honestly.

"Oh? Is it the one that Pingyang is obsessed with?" Princess Xian listened to the whole process of entering the palace from Meng Hui, and was naturally familiar with this name.

Meng Hui nodded, then sorted out his thoughts and said, "After I returned home, I asked Duofu to inquire. Song Ming had been obsessed with the third prince since he was a teenager. Not only that, he did not die suddenly because of Sister Pingyang's affairs, but instead entered Buddhism and went to Ruoshou Temple to become a monk!"

"If so, then the assassin may be him." The Princess Xian said lightly, "He is loyal to Sun Zhao and dares to do anything."

That's right? The princess was so fucked up and didn't give her life, so she came and sent her again.

"Are he not afraid of the Song family suffering?" This is not just a cheating father, it is simply a cheating of the Nine Clans!

The Princess Xian snorted and said, "If such a big young man doesn't see you, you will disappear. Do you think the Song family is unaware of it? It's just a life that suppresses Song Ming, and bets that Sun Zhao will bring them a greater future."

Meng Hui was shocked, but he didn't expect there was such a layer.

"It's a pity that Pingyang is aware of someone who is not good, so he has to look at such a thing!" The Princess of the Virtue still has a family affection for Sun Yian, and he couldn't help but feel depressed as soon as he mentioned it. "The officials who investigated the case also do not work. After so long, they have not even found any new clues!"

Meng Hui then realized that Princess Xian hadn't expected Sun Yian to commit suicide.

"The officials who investigated the case dared not investigate, and there was no need for more clues. The so-called secret room murder case was actually created by the third prince, Liang Fei, and Pingyang sister."

The Princess Xian was a little surprised after hearing this: "How could it be...I believe that your aunt and the third prince were involved, but why was Pingyang so stupid!"

Meng Huixian told the story of the young prince back then, and of course he did not skip the past Sun Yian begged Sun Youyi not to tell him. "So when Prince Pingchuan and Prince Xian came to visit, I just said I forgot and saw nothing."

The Prince and Prince Pingchuan not only found her, but also went to find every child who participated in hide-and-seek. Even the princes and princesses in the palace did not miss it. However, the answers they received were always "I don't know", "I didn't see", "He hid there himself."

Later, Prince Pingchuan began to believe that his son did not die in a conspiracy, but was really competitive and wanted to hide in a place that was difficult to find, which led to this tragedy.

"The Princess of the County never believed it. She said that she knew her son. The little prince was not a naughty and competitive person, so it was impossible for him to hide in that kind of place on purpose." The Princess of the Virtuous recalled the past and felt a little sad.

"She also said that before leaving home, she had warned the young prince many times that he must behave properly after entering the palace, be friendly to others, be honest and obedient, and not cause trouble."

Meng recalled the scene in his memory and thought that the little prince was too friendly and obedient. Sun Zhao told him to hide wherever he would hide. Obviously, he knew that the third prince was someone he could not mess with.

"Oh, later, whenever there was a party in the palace or in various prefectures, she would pull the relatives of the children to ask questions. She gradually became a little confused and then became sick." The Princess Xian looked at Meng Hui with a complicated expression, and then shook her head. "I didn't expect that from then on, Sun Zhao had already..."

Meng Hui did not give her much time to recall, and soon continued the topic just now.

"From this incident, Sister Pingyang is definitely not disgusted with Sun Zhao, but will help him secretly." Meng Hui analyzed the reason for Sun Yian's suicide to Princess from beginning to end, and then she saw that her face gradually changed.

"Why is Pingyang so stupid?" Princess Xian sighed, sitting there and not talking anymore. She only felt sorry for Sun Yian's behavior. As for Liangfei and Sun Zhao's actions, she had expected them.

For concubines in each palace, only sons deserve attention. No matter how smart or beautiful a daughter is, she will sooner or later marry someone else’s wife.

No matter how well a daughter is married, they cannot make their status higher. Only when a son is successful can they reach the top, become winners in the harem, and enjoy all their glory.

Liang Fei had high hopes for Sun Zhao. In order to allow him to steadily reach a high position, he could do anything, including sacrificing Sun Yian.

Her ruthlessness made the Princess Xian feel unbelievable; but her madness and sadness made the Princess Xian feel extremely sad.

After a long time, the Xian Princess asked in a low voice: "What's going on in that secret room? Even the people from Dali Temple didn't figure it out, so how did you figure it out?"

Meng replied: "Short after I arrived at Ningxi Palace, the third prince left the envoy of the vassal state and rushed over. Later, I thought about it, maybe I received a notice from Fangqing to prevent Liangfei from saying what she shouldn't have said. So I began to recall every word that Fangqing said."

When Fangqing mentioned the eldest prince's concubine and Yupin, she was obviously skeptical and wanted to mislead Meng Hui to think that they were the murderers.

When talking about Sun Yian's death, she deliberately pointed out that Sun Yian was stabbed to death from the rear, and emphasized that the scars were very big and the weapon was very big, so she wanted someone to completely rule out the possibility of suicide.

However, when Meng Hui had questions about the source and where the weapon was located, Fangqing immediately turned on the topic and said that even the case officials could not figure it out, implying that this was a dead end and there was no need to think about it.

"I couldn't figure out at first what could cause such great damage, but I had to operate it myself? Besides, no one could find it afterwards."

Liang Fei also became curious: "Isn't that so, what's so strange?"

"Actually, it's not surprising at all." Meng Hui pointed to the ice sculpture beside him, "Because the weapon is the ice that can melt into water!"
