Chapter 432 Sending a Message by Pigeon to Find the Tenth Prince
Unexpectedly, Qian Musheng appeared in his sister's new room and stabbed her to death.

Would he let Qian Musheng off the hook? All the guests here are prominent figures, and this matter is rather strange, yet no one dares to step forward to uphold justice for Qian Musheng.

Who dares to come over!
The main problem is that they don't understand the reason behind this. What they see when they enter the bridal chamber is Qian Musheng drunk and passed out on the bride's bed, and the bride is dead on the bed, disheveled. The evidence is conclusive, so what else is there to say? All of this shows that Qian Musheng killed the bride here.

None of those people dared to stand up for Qian Musheng, who now felt certain he had been framed. What else was there to say? Although he did drink, he always had a limit, especially in such a setting where he was even more careful not to drink too much. His original intention was to have a few drinks and then go straight home; he didn't want to stay here any longer. Now it seemed to confirm one thing: he really had been framed.

Qian Musheng's head felt like it was splitting open, and he really couldn't remember who had poured the wine for him last night.

He looked like a young man, very handsome?
But even though I don't know that person, could someone who comes to Prince Gong's mansion to offer congratulations be an ordinary person?
Qian Musheng was imprisoned on death row, and the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review personally came to hear the case. This matter alarmed the Emperor, after all, she was the daughter of a princess, and a county princess in no way was an exile.

This was no small matter, and Qian Musheng was ultimately sentenced to death and to be executed in the autumn.

It seems this matter is not so simple. After Qian Musheng was arrested by someone, Xiaodeng and Xiaozhuo were terrified.

After they calmed down, they realized that their young master had been wronged.

But what could they do? They didn't know how to investigate. Neither of them had been with Qian Musheng that day, so they naturally didn't know what had happened at the bridal chamber. The two were frantic in the capital, but there was nothing they could do. They knew that Prince Gong now held absolute power; whatever he said went. Moreover, this involved the Princess Consort's most beloved daughter; naturally, she wouldn't allow Qian Musheng to stab her to death at her wedding banquet. Would she agree to that?
The little table and the little stool went home to beg Master Qian, but Master Qian's face darkened and he said, "It's a misfortune for our family to have such a disobedient son! I've decided to sever ties with him, and I'm not going to get involved in this matter anymore!"

No matter how much Aunt Yun pleaded and begged, it was no use; Master Qian simply turned his back on her.

Aunt Yun was crying her eyes out. She called out from behind Master Qian, "Qian Musheng is also your son! Is your eldest son the only one in your heart?"

All that awaited her was the sound of indifferent footsteps. What could Aunt Yun do? She was just a woman at home.

Seeing this, the little table and the little stool had given up hope that Master Qian would send someone to rescue Qian Musheng.

The two rushed back to their home in town, only to be coldly rejected by Master Qian. What could they do? Now, the only person they could think of to save Qian Musheng was probably the Tenth Prince.

The two packed their things, preparing to return to the capital to find the Tenth Prince, but the Tenth Prince's whereabouts were unknown, and they didn't even know if he was at his residence.

They were extremely anxious; Xiao Zhuozi even had blisters on his lips. But what could they do? There was no other way. Now, it was said that Prince Gong's mother had fallen seriously ill after her daughter's death, which had enraged the Emperor, who might have executed Qian Musheng ahead of schedule.

Su Xiaoxiao planned to go to the Qian residence to see if Qian Musheng had returned from his business in the capital, and to discuss with him the matter of setting up a private school in the village.

When they arrived at the Qian residence, they saw Xiaozhuozi and Xiaodengzi preparing the carriage for the capital. Su Xiaoxiao asked them if Qian Musheng had returned. As soon as Xiaodengzi saw Su Xiaoxiao, he immediately cried as if he had seen a relative and told her what had happened to Qian Musheng in the capital.

In fact, they only had a vague understanding, since they hadn't gone with Qian Musheng that day.

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao was astonished. What kind of person was Qian Musheng? Would he really let alcohol cause him trouble?
Su Xiaoxiao had never met him before, but Qian Musheng, who was a very upright person, would not have taken a liking to someone at their wedding and then kill them if he failed to assault them, right?
Qian Musheng was kind to people and I never saw him abuse anyone. It was impossible for such a kind-hearted person to do such a thing.

However, it seems that this matter is not so simple. When Su Xiaoxiao heard that it happened at Prince Gong's Mansion, she didn't even need to think that Qian Musheng was being wronged.

But then Su Xiaoxiao thought again, Prince Gong wouldn't go so far as to use his sister's life as a bargaining chip to frame Qian Musheng, would he?

This matter certainly doesn't seem simple. What we need to do now is to quickly find out through some connections that Qian Musheng is in prison and find out what exactly happened at the wedding banquet that day.

The matter that Qian Musheng encountered this time was no small matter. After Su Xiaoxiao found out, she said to the small table and stool, "We still need to find the Tenth Prince. Only with his help can we see Young Master Qian and overturn his case."

Xiao Zhuozi said, "Yes, that's what we thought too, but the Tenth Prince's whereabouts are unpredictable, and we're afraid we won't be able to find him!"

Su Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said to Xiaozhuozi, "I remember that Qian Musheng once sent a letter with the Tenth Prince by carrier pigeon. That pigeon was kept in the study of Qian Musheng's family in the capital."

Upon hearing this, the little table and the little stool were both taken aback and exclaimed, "How come we didn't know?"

No one was allowed to enter Qian Musheng's study, and the small table and stools were rarely used. As for the pigeons he kept, they had no idea. But who was feeding the pigeons? They hadn't heard of any servants going into Qian Musheng's study to feed them.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly explained, "The pigeons aren't kept in your study; they roam freely outside. Sometimes they fly back to Qian Musheng's study, and your young master Qian feeds them something."

The two then realized what was going on.

Without further ado, the two of them returned to the capital first, hoping to find the carrier pigeon and send a message to the Tenth Prince.

Su Xiaoxiao said she would go back to the village first, take care of things at home, and then head to Beijing.

On her way home, Su Xiaoxiao's heart was pounding. Why? Because she hadn't seen Qian Musheng for days and was feeling worried; her right eyelid had been twitching. She never imagined that something had really happened to Qian Musheng.
