Chapter 289: The Sooner the Better (One Update)
"My lord, the people of Changxin Palace replied, saying that they had never sent anyone to the dining room yesterday, and said that the food of Duan Meiren in the past two days was prepared in the small dining room of Changxin Palace, and only a few snacks were handed over to the big dining room, but they did not send anyone to inquire and urge, and the father-in-law in charge also said that if he didn't believe it, he could call everyone to let the attendants in the dining room identify him. ”
Sun Qian pulled his head deafly, his tone was quite helpless, this clue was broken when he found it here, and the father-in-law in charge dared to reply like this, then this matter must have nothing to do with Changxin Palace, and it is not certain whether the palace maid that the two servants said was the murderer, Sun Qian scolded in a low voice, "The case in the palace is really aggrieved, this can't be moved and that can't be touched, but there are many people with mixed eyes, how many eunuchs and palace maids are in this palace, and they always love to have an accident......"
Sun Zhao didn't react when he heard Sun Qian's words, and only asked, "Is there any news from the Imperial Punishment Division?"
Sun Qian immediately stepped forward, "I was about to report to you, Ling Shi went to check, sure enough, it was the morning dew and frost, our people went up to the roof to take a look, and found that the roof was originally repaired and the leak was opened again, and the leakage could not be seen whether it was man-made, but the remnants of the morning dew and frost were found in the tile cracks of the roof, which must be man-made." ”
The Imperial Punishment Division is heavily guarded, who wants to enter from the main gate to poison it is impossible, only to come up with such a method, it really rained in the two days of partial birth, Sun Zhao raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "The person who did it left no traces?"
Sun Qian shook his head, "No, it's very clean except for the remnants of poison." ”
"The poison that poisoned the palace maid was also the morning dew frost, this morning dew and frost is so good?" Sun Zhao muttered.
Sun Qian's eyes lit up, "This can be regarded as a check, the villain specially went to check, the morning dew frost is produced in the East China Sea, and it is extracted from a poisonous aquatic plant on the bottom of the East China Sea, and this poison first appeared in Yue Kingdom." ”
Sun Zhao bowed slightly, "Yue Guo...... There are no Yue girls in the palace. ”
Sun Qian snorted lightly, "Why is it not the Yue Nu, if you have money, someone can buy it at a high price, but the current morning dew frost is only afraid that there is no market, and I heard that the family that made drugs has long ceased to exist." ”
After a slight pause, Sun Qian looked at Sun Zhao's slightly tired face and stared for a while, "My lord, what's wrong?"
Sun Zhao has experienced too many cases, not to mention that he is an iron face, Sun Qian has followed him for a long time, and it is rare to see him show such a face, so he can't help but ask more, Sun Zhao sighed and said, "I'm afraid this case will become a headless case." ”
Sun Qian was slightly surprised, "Why, although it is not very convenient to tie hands and feet in this palace, we can continue to investigate." ”
Sun Zhao shook his head again, "When I went to meet the king this morning, the king said eight words. ”
Sun Qian couldn't help but lean closer and take a step closer, "Which eight words?"
Sun Zhao's eyes were slightly dark, and he said in a deep voice, "Fight quickly, and turn big things into small ones." ”
Sun Qian was stunned for a moment, and then gritted his teeth and said, "How can this investigation be solved quickly? It's in the palace again, it's even more ridiculous if this big thing is small, how should it be how it is, how can it be called a big thing into a small one?"
Sun Qian has been following Sun Zhao for a long time, and his body is also stained with the righteousness in his body, Sun Zhao listened to this voice slightly cool, "There have been too many things in the palace in recent days, the king is tired of dealing with the harem, and now it is the time when Zhao envoy is courting, if the murder of the Shu palace is exaggerated, it will definitely damage the national body, so the king asked me to make a big thing small, saying so, I am afraid that there is also a meaning of turning a small matter." ”
Sun Qian moved his lips, but he really didn't know what to say, they, the king, couldn't look at their inner palace, and they involved the Tingwei Mansion but didn't want the ugly yin of the inner palace to be exposed to the world, in this case, why let them investigate?
"Then what are you going to do with such an adult?" Sun Qian was worried that with Sun Zhao's temperament, he was likely to anger Jun Yan.
What should I do?" Sun Zhao narrowed his eyes, "As a courtier, you can only obey the king's wishes. ”
Sun Qian's eyes lit up slightly, and then his expression darkened, bright because Sun Zhao understood the way of the monarch and the minister, so that he would not anger the king and protect himself, but secretly understood that Sun Zhao's temperament must be very annoyed, sighed, Sun Qian said, "My lord, since it is always inevitable to be an official in the court, anyway, it is the king's inner palace that is chaotic in this inner palace, and the victim is also his wife and daughter. ”
After Sun Qian said this, he only felt a cool breeze on the back of his neck, looked around, and was relieved to see that no one was there, these words were to comfort Sun Zhao, but if Feng Qin knew it, it would be a real disrespect-
Sun Zhao's eyes were dark and gloomy, "I know it in my heart, don't worry." ”
Sun Qian breathed a sigh of relief, looked left and right and said sneakily, "Have you heard the rumors in the palace?"
Sun Zhao stared, "What rumors?"
Sun Qian coughed lightly, "Everyone is saying that Liu Meiren died at a good time." ”
"What do you mean?" Sun Zhao obviously didn't know about the open and secret battles in the palace, and he didn't have Sun Qian's mind to watch the excitement.
Sun Qian lowered his voice a little, "Zhao envoy begged for marriage, and the king of Shu asked Zhao envoy to choose one between the ninth princess and the tenth princess, and Zhao envoy chose half of the ninth princess and half of the tenth princess, so the stalemate was inconclusive for a few days, but now that this Liu beauty is dead, the ninth prince mainly guards filial piety and mourns, where can he still marry, so Zhao Envoy's choice is only one of the ten princesses." ”
Seeing Sun Zhao's narrow eyes, Sun Qian's eyes widened, "What's the matter?"
Sun Zhao shook his head, "There is no evidence yet, so don't speculate." ”
Sun Qian straightened up, "The villain knows, that's what he said." ”
Sun Zhao's eyes flashed two points of deep thought, "As for the motive, the tenth princess has this motive, anyway, this matter will be investigated, but ......" Sun Zhao suddenly frowned, "Did the king also think of this, so he explained to me like that?" The king must know the rumors in the palace before me, Zhao can only ask the tenth princess now, and the king wants the ten princesses to be safe and sound." ”
Sun Qian sighed lightly, "Then Liu Meiren is too wronged by his wife......"
Sun Zhao pursed his lips and didn't speak, he naturally understood Liu Meiren's wrongs, but he understood even more that none of the current ten princesses could move.
The mourning in the Hanlin Hall has not stopped, the purple kite in the Jiaofang Hall entered the inner room with a happy face, Feng Nianrong in the inner room is copying Buddhist scriptures, she likes to copy Buddhist scriptures on weekdays or dedicated to Feng Qin or dedicated to Duan Jinyi, and today she copied more seriously and piously, so that when the purple kite walked in, she pressed her face before gently approaching her.
"Princess, Zhao Envoy and the King of Shu have agreed! I want you to marry Zhao and become the wife of the prince!"
"Let's click", even if her face is not obvious, but the sudden drop of thick ink on the paper still proves that Feng Nianrong's heart is not small, she pursed her lips and slowly raised her eyes, "Really...... It's set?"
Purple Kite smiled brightly at this time, "It's really decided! It was the prince who sent the inner servants of the Chongzheng Palace to communicate, and now it has been agreed, just wait for the Zhao envoy to send the news back to Zhao and discuss with the prince of Zhao to set the time for the wedding! Princess, you are about to be the person who is the wife of the prince of Zhao Guo, congratulations to the princess, Princess Hexi, you have finally come out......"
Putting down the pen, Feng Nianrong frowned slightly, she didn't like the sentence "boiled out", "It's decided, it's decided, although it's a good thing, but Liu Meiren is still in mourning, let's be quiet here, you go and explain." After a pause, she added, "I'll go to Zhaoren Palace in the evening, and I still have to tell my aunt the news." ”
Feng Nianrong's tone was slow when she said this, as if she had already decided that the person who married Zhao Guo must be herself, and she was not a little surprised, and the purple kite nodded busily, "Okay, good, slave knows." ”
was about to turn around and go out to command, but the purple kite took a step out and turned back, "When does the princess want to set the wedding date?" The big wedding between Princess Shaoguang and the prince of Yan Guo is scheduled for the beginning of winter, and there is still so far to start preparations, and you haven't prepared yet, I'm afraid it will be after the beginning of winter." Saying that, Purple Kite's expression changed slightly, "Although it is a good thing to marry Zhao Guo to be the wife of the prince, but we all grew up in Shu since childhood, don't say it, I am quite reluctant to leave Shu Country at the bottom of my heart." ”
Zi Kite's voice had already sank as she spoke, and Feng Nianrong glanced at her, but her face was not shocked.
She picked up the pen again, and closed her eyes to hide the overflowing color under her eyes.
"I think the sooner the better. ”
