In mid-November, the second prince Xiao Mo finally returned. As soon as he came back, he heard that Su Wan had been sent back to the countryside, and immediately rushed to the Su Mansion without stopping.

The servants did not dare to stop Xiao Mo, so Xiao Mo directly found Su Xiangguo who was busy with official duties in the study.

"Su Xiangguo!"

Su Xiangguo was not surprised by his arrival and immediately stood up to greet him, "His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

Then, Su Xiangguo ordered his servants: "Go and make tea."

"No need." Xiao Mo raised his hand, no longer as gentle as before, and refused with force. Then he strode into the study, "I have a few words to say to Mr. Xiangguo, and I will leave after I finish speaking."

"Okay, you guys step back."

After the servants left, the study door was closed again.

Xiao Mo put his hands behind his back and said straight to the point, "Su Xiangguo, I would like to ask, why did you send Wan'er to the countryside?"

Su Xiangguo sighed, "Wan'er did something wrong, this is just her punishment."

"Oh? What did Wan'er do wrong?"

However, Su Xiangguo refused to say: "This is a private matter of the minister's family. His Highness the Second Prince asked too much."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his mouth, "If I guessed correctly, this matter has something to do with Su Xiang, right?"

Su Xiangguo's expression suddenly turned cold.

"This time, based on Su Qing's confession, we went to find the two thieves. We followed the traces all the way to Shangzhou, but the prisoner suddenly committed suicide there and lost the clue. On the way back, we were puzzled. Suddenly, we I found an interesting pattern." Xiao Mo raised his index finger, "Whether it's Su Qing or Chen Yuanzhou, they all have a bad relationship with one person, and that person is Su Xiang."

Su Xiangguo sat down, with nothing on his face, but a slight warning in his tone: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, you must pay attention to evidence in everything, and it is better not to make random guesses. How could a woman like this be possible? Big ability?"

"Of course Su Xiang doesn't, but the person behind her may not. We suspect that there is a force that none of us know is secretly helping Su Xiang behind the scenes." Xiao Mo smiled, "Of course, all this is just speculation. That’s all.”

Su Xiangguo frowned, "Is there a force helping Xiang'er?"

Although Su Xiangguo didn't want to believe it, he still inadvertently thought of the tragic death of the two kidnappers and Chen Yuanzhou. After Xiao Mo's reminder, it was indeed a bit strange.

"The Prime Minister doesn't know?" Xiao Mo came to a conclusion when he saw that Su Xiangguo didn't act like he was acting.

"This matter is just an inference. We still need to investigate further. In addition, we would like to ask, when does the Prime Minister plan to release Wan'er back?"

Su Xiangguo came to his senses, "Wan'er made a big mistake this time. If there are no special circumstances, I'm afraid it will take a year or two to come back."

"One or two years..." Xiao Mo murmured and asked: "Then... wouldn't it be okay for me to ask for a favor for her?"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, please don't embarrass me."

"Okay, I understand." Xiao Mo nodded and asked in a different way, "Is it okay for me to go see Wan'er?"

"nature."

"Okay, Su Xiangguo will stay." Xiao Mo nodded to him, turned around, opened the door, and strode out.

When walking halfway, a beautiful girl with snow-skinned face walked towards him. When she saw Xiao Mo, the girl didn't even move her eyelids and directly lowered her head to salute.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

"Miss Su Er, I haven't seen you for a long time." Xiao Mo lowered his head and looked at Su Xiang calmly. He couldn't imagine that there was an extremely powerful force behind this girl helping her.

I just don't know if she knows or not.

So, Xiao Mo said tentatively: "Miss Su Er, the prisoners involved in the Taiwan Prison case have been captured by this palace. I believe Su Qing will be back soon."

If Su wants to know the inside story, she will definitely be disgusted with Su Qing's return, and will also be worried about the prisoners who helped her.

Even if she had the slightest reaction, Xiao Mo was confident that he could catch it.

However, Xiao Mo was disappointed.

Su Xiang raised his head, his expression was very calm, his eyes were calm, and he replied: "It seems that this matter is coming to an end, which is good. As for Su Qing, he has learned his lesson anyway, I don't care."

Xiao Mo pursed his lips and nodded, "Miss Su Er is generous. I wonder if Miss Su Er can do me a favor?"

Su Xiang said without blinking, "If Your Highness wants me to plead for my sister, it's probably useless. My sister made a bigger mistake this time. My father and ancestors are very angry and won't let me plead. I'm sorry that I can't do anything." .”

Xiao Mo just asked tentatively and didn't expect her. After hearing this, he nodded and prepared to leave.

"Then I'll take my leave now."

""Your Highness walked slowly.

Su Xiang returned the gift, and after Xiao Mo left first, he slowly walked inside with his maid.

During this period, Xiao Mo looked back and saw only the girl's retreating back.

This second Miss Su is neither humble nor arrogant, and has no flaws at all. She is not at all like the arrogant, domineering and ignorant of etiquette as rumored. If it's not that she really doesn't know, it's because her acting skills are too good...

After Su Xiang returned to his yard, he reviewed what Xiao Mo had just said and made sure that he was testing her. When he goes to Amelia Su to ask questions again, he may become more suspicious of himself.

She had to let the other person take care of himself.

Su Xiang tapped the table thoughtfully, and after a while he said, "Qingyun, bring me some paper. I want to send a letter to the princess."

"Yes."

The next day.

The Taiwan prison case could not be delayed any longer, so Xiao Mo had to report it first and then go to Su Wan after the matter was resolved.

Xiao Mo reported that he had actually found the two thieves, but it was a pity that they would rather die than surrender and committed suicide by biting their tongues.

The princeling immediately became angry, and the grandmaster's party was busy defending Xiao Mo. The emperor looked at this inconspicuous son with an unpredictable expression, and remembered an incident that happened two days ago.

The emperor believed in Buddhism and often invited the abbot of Changlin Temple to recite sutras for him. In the last conversation, the emperor casually asked the abbot who among his princes had the deepest impression.

The master abbot said "Amitabha" and said: "But the people all praise the second prince for his crane-like appearance, gentleness, courtesy and thrift. I am a little curious about the second prince."

The emperor has always been suspicious. After hearing these words, he was surprised that the second prince was so popular with the people. Therefore, he immediately asked someone to investigate Xiao Mo. After getting to know him, he realized that his second son, who had always been indifferent to fame and fortune, was hiding so much.

Xiao Mo looked at the emperor's slightly thoughtful eyes, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He always felt that something was different.

Finally, the emperor relented and said that the matter was over.

After the morning meeting, Xiao Mo and Master Li looked at each other in tacit understanding, and their expressions became gloomy.

After Xiao Mo finished handling the matter, he immediately went to find Su Wan, but Li Zhiyu came over for some unknown reason, crying and making trouble, and refused to let him leave.

Xiao Mo had a severe headache and could hardly maintain his usual gentle expression.
