Chapter 1018 Did You Ever Expect You to Have Today Too
Qing Yan smiled mysteriously and said, "Madam, don't you know, when the fifth princess got married, didn't you pretend to be taken by Steward Zhou and fainted? At that time, Jing Yan met Li Ruolin in the front yard of the main hall, and he had a good impression of her. ”
Zhuo Nan's eyes flashed with a light and said coldly: "Then he is destined to be disappointed." "The Qiu family will never let him marry Li Ruolin.
As he spoke, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the green butler approaching him.
After the green housekeeper approached, he bowed his head and saluted: "Madam, the Prime Minister's Mansion sent someone to spread the word, and the Prime Minister's wife is dead." ”
Zhuo Nan: "......" was silent for a while before he said, "Prepare the car immediately." ”
"The car is ready. After the green housekeeper finished speaking, he led the way, and sent Zhuo Nan to the gate of Jingfu all the way, and only then turned around and left after seeing her get into the carriage.
On the carriage, Zhuo Nan swept Qing Yan and Qing Liu with cold eyes, and asked coldly, "Which of you two said?"
Aoyagi said expressionlessly: "In the middle of the night last night, Zhuo Ziao sneaked into Tianyinju and strangled the prime minister's wife and fled. ”
Zhuo Nan: "......" turned out to be Zhuo Ziao who killed his mother...... Retribution. Remembering something, he asked, "What about the secret guard next to her?"
Aoyagi: "The Venerable Lord has ordered the Bloody Demon Gate to be recalled. ”
Zhuo Nan understood everything in an instant and closed his eyes.
The secret guard beside my mother was a meticulous work planted by the bloody gate back then, in order to monitor the movements of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Now that my father is dead, the secret guard naturally has to withdraw.
It seems that Zhuo Ziao's killing of her mother is retribution, but she knows very well that Jing Fox must have done it intentionally.
He could have easily killed the Li family, but instead borrowed a knife to kill people, just to help her avenge, and was worried that she would resent him, which can be described as well-intentioned.
She only ...... I don't know anything.
Seeing that Zhuo Nan had already guessed the truth with his eyes closed, Qing Yan opened his mouth and just wanted to explain a few sentences for Jing Rong, but when he saw her suddenly open her eyes, her expression was calm, and she immediately understood that she did not blame Jing Rong for Li's death, so she was relieved.
Aoyagi saw that Zhuo Nan had obviously guessed the truth about Li's death, but he quickly regained his composure, and he didn't plan to pursue Jing Rong to settle accounts at all. He lowered his head, his eyes slightly constricted.
Situ House.
Zhuo Qing was having breakfast because she was pregnant, but suddenly received a report from the Prime Minister's Mansion that the Li family had been killed!
Zhuo Qing blinked in disbelief at Aster. "Did you hear me wrong?"
Zi Yuan said with a serious face: "The slave has already confirmed it again and again with the little maid who came to report the news. ”
Zhuo Qing believed it. How dare a slave joke about the life of the prime minister's wife, and suddenly asked: "When did you die? How did you die? Who killed it? Did the murderer catch it?" ”
"I heard that he was strangled to death in the middle of the night last night, and it is not clear who the murderer is. "The murderer's guts are too fat! Even the prime minister's wife dares to strangle to death!
It seems that the Li family is really dead! Zhuo Qing looked at Ziyuan and ordered, "You prepare the car immediately." ”
Shion turned and left.
Zhuo Qing stood up and walked into the inner room, sat in front of the dresser and stared at himself in the bronze mirror, and said fiercely with a hideous face: "Li! You don't even let go of a dead person, but you never thought that you would have today!"
For the sake of the dead third aunt, she originally planned to find an opportunity to seek revenge on the Li family.
Now it's easier, there's no need for it, and her enemy is one less!
The Five Princes' Mansion, Fuxi Pavilion.
The fifth prince sat in front of the bed, looking at Zhuo Ran, who still didn't want to wake up, his face was gloomy. His gaze slowly moved down to her bulging lower abdomen, and her anger swept away and instantly became gentle.
A maid suddenly hurried in and knelt down. "Master, Wang Zuo has an urgent matter to see. ”
The fifth prince turned around and walked out of the house to the courtyard.
Wang Zuo immediately stepped forward and replied: "Master, the spy came to report that the prime minister's wife was strangled to death last night, and the queen mother was furious when she learned that she ordered the queen to stay in the harem, and she went to the prime minister's mansion in person, and the prince and Lord Jing accompanied him. When Mrs. Jing and the general's wife heard the news, they immediately rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion by car. ”
"Who did it?" He admired the murderer very much, and dared to ignore the Queen Mother and risk the destruction of the Nine Clans to kill the Prime Minister's wife!
Wang Zuo said with an affirmative face: "Zhuo Ziao, he has fled now and is missing." ”
"Zhuo Ziao?" The fifth prince was slightly stunned, and then remembered that Zhuo Ziao, the eldest prince of the Prime Minister's Mansion who had been forgotten by him for a long time, had relied on the favor of the Queen Mother to run rampant and domineering in the entire capital, and disregarded people's lives.
In the past, even he, the prince, did everything he could to please him!
Suddenly he looked up and laughed. "Hahahaha! Good kill! Good kill!"
It's best that the Queen Mother is overly sad because of Li's death, and she can't catch Zhuo Ziao, the real culprit, and punish him severely, so she 'goes' with grief and anger, it will be better!
Looking at Wang Zuo, he ordered in a good mood: "Go! This prince will go to worship her mother-in-law on behalf of the princess!
In front of the gate of the Prime Minister's Palace.
The carriage of Jingfu slowly stopped, Zhuo Nan got out of the carriage, and saw that the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was full of Praetorian Guards, and he had already guessed that the Li family was dead, which alarmed the queen mother in the palace.
The sound of horses' hooves came from behind him again, and Zhuo Nan looked back to see that a team of officers and soldiers on horseback escorted Situfu's carriage and slowly stopped.
Aster helped Zhuo Qing to get out of the carriage.
The two glanced at each other, and Zhuo Nan turned around and took Qing Yan and Aoyagi to step into the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion first.
He had barely taken two steps when he heard the cold voice of the Praetorian Guard behind him. "Please leave the guards behind!"
Zhuo Nan couldn't help but turn around again, and caught a glimpse of the Praetorian Guards guarding the gate blocking all the officers and soldiers brought by Zhuo Qing from entering the gate.
Zhuo Qing had to leave the officers and soldiers left by Situ Weiguo to her, and took Ziyuan to step into the threshold of the Prime Minister's Mansion alone.
The two of them stepped into Tianyinju with their respective maids one after the other.
After stepping into the inner courtyard through the front yard, I heard the cry of the Queen Mother from inside the house.
There were many eunuchs and palace maids standing in the corners of the courtyard, and Wu An, the head of the guards, was also there.
Wu An saw Zhuo Nan, who was the first to walk in, and immediately stepped forward to salute. "Mrs. Jing, the Queen Mother is in the house. The prince and Lord Jing were also inside. Seeing Zhuo Nan's indifferent expression, as if he didn't care about Li's death at all, he couldn't help but have some opinions in his heart.
"Hmm. Zhuo Nan nodded at him slightly, left Qing Yan and Qing Liu in the courtyard, and stepped into the house alone.
Wu An then saluted Zhuo Qing, who was one step behind. "Madame General. ”
Zhuo Qing asked in a low voice with a sad face, "My mother, she ...... Really......
Wu An nodded.
The tears swirling in Zhuo Qing's eyes fell instantly because of Wu An's nod, crossing her beautiful face, which made people feel distressed and pitiful.
Wu An saw Zhuo Qing crying, and Zhuo Nan's indifferent look just now appeared in his mind, and he sighed slightly in his heart, people who didn't know thought that the general's wife was the Li family's biological daughter.
Zhuo Qing took out a handkerchief and quickly wiped away her tears, leaving the asters, and then stepped into the house.
Seeing that the prince and Jingrong were standing together, there was no Zhuo Nan, and he stepped forward to salute the prince.
