407 I don't know the real murderer
In the Imperial Study
When Xuanyuan Haodi and Wang Fu arrived at the imperial study, Xuanyuan Chen had already restrained all his emotions, returned straight to the imperial case and sat down, and returned to the indifferent and serious emperor.
Just looked at Concubine Liu Shu, who was re-covered with a white cloth on the ground and continued to lie there lifeless, a trace of sadness couldn't help but be revealed.
Wang Fu gently pushed open the door, walked in front of Xuanyuan Chen without the corpse on the ground, bowed down and whispered:
"Your Majesty, the old slave has invited the prince. ”
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen came back to his senses, wiped away the sadness on his face, and raised his eyes to look at Xuanyuan Haodi.
Seeing that he hadn't seen him for two months, Xuanyuan Haodi had lost a lot of weight, and Xuanyuan Chen couldn't help but be stunned.
Although he doesn't have much love for Xuanyuan Haodi's son, he is the first child born to himself and Concubine Liu Shu, and his first eldest son.
It seems that in the past two months, he has suffered a lot in Dianxi Garden, otherwise he would not have lost so much weight.
But thinking of Xuanyuan Haodi's crime, Xuanyuan Chen hid his shallow distress again, and said to Xuanyuan Haodi in a deep voice:
"You're here. ”
Xuanyuan Haodi withdrew his puzzled gaze from the two corpses on the ground, walked to the imperial case, lifted his robe, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xuanyuan Chen:
"Yes, my son will visit my father. ”
Seeing Xuanyuan Haodi's respectful appearance, Xuanyuan Chen's heart softened slightly, nodded and then said:
"Well, get up. ”
"The son thanked his father. Xuanyuan Haodi kowtowed respectfully, and then stood in place without saying a word.
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his head to Wang Fudao:
"You stand down, you can leave the Peace King here. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. Wang Fu saluted respectfully to the two, and then gently withdrew from the imperial study.
The door shut, and the room was so quiet that almost no sound could be heard.
Xuanyuan Chen looked at Xuanyuan Haodi, who was standing with his head down, then looked at the corpse below, sighed softly, and then looked at Xuanyuan Haodi and said in a deep voice:
"You know what I called you for. ”
"The son doesn't know, please ask my father to explain it. Xuanyuan Haodi raised his head and looked puzzled.
Xuanyuan Chen stared at this eldest son, endured the grief in his heart and said:
"See the corpse on the ground behind you?"
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Haodi turned his head to look at the two corpses covered with white cloths on the ground, nodded, and then looked back at Xuanyuan Chen and said in confusion:
"Father, what is this ......?"
"This is your mother, and her personal maid Mei Yan. Xuanyuan Chen changed his ways.
When Xuanyuan Haodi heard this, he was immediately petrified in place, staring at Xuanyuan Chen with disbelief in his eyes.
Turning his head to look at the corpse on the ground again, he turned back with red eyes and clenched fists and roared:
"No! This can't be! Mother concubine, isn't she doing well in Bitong Palace? Why did she die suddenly? This must be your father's deception to your son!"
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Chen couldn't help but sigh softly, and then closed his eyes as if he was extremely tired:
"I don't believe that Cheng Jun died like this, I always thought that the scene in front of me was just a dream, but she was really dead. ”
"Mother concubine, she will not die, she will definitely not die, the person lying here is definitely not a mother concubine!" Xuanyuan Haodi pointed to the corpse on the ground with disbelief in his eyes.
"I called you here to give you one last look at her, and she is indeed dead. Xuanyuan Chen endured the grief in his heart and said this dead word.
Despite this, Xuanyuan Haodi still didn't believe that Concubine Liu Shu was dead like this, turned around and walked to the two corpses with difficulty, squatted down and uncovered the white cloth on the right with his intuition.
The white cloth was uncovered, revealing Concubine Liu Shu's calm and gray face, Xuanyuan Haodi was stunned in his hands, and two lines of tears couldn't help but flow in his eyes.
Looking at the beautiful and charming mother concubine in the past, but at this time she was lying quietly on the ground and lifeless, Xuanyuan Haodi couldn't help but let out a beast-like roar, and then hugged Liu Shufei's body and called in a choked voice:
"Mother, mother, the son-in-law is here, open your eyes and look at the son-in-law......"
"The Mother ......"
No matter how Xuanyuan Haodi shook, Concubine Liu Shufei no longer had a trace of response, there was an obvious sadness in the air, and Xuanyuan Chen couldn't help but slip a tear down his closed eyes.
A stick of incense passed
Xuanyuan Haodi hugged Concubine Liu Shufei's cold body, from sadness to the end full of hatred, the yin owl under his eyes seemed to be rooted and could no longer be hidden.
Gently put Liu Shufei in his arms on the ground, Xuanyuan Haodi held Liu Shufei's cold right hand, and put it to his mouth and couldn't help but shed tears of pain.
Concubine Liu Shu has always relied on herself, because she is here, her mother and son are expensive, even if she is not favored by her father, but the treatment is no worse than Xuanyuan Haoling.
Because of her, even if his father was jealous of himself and knew about his cooperation with Fengli, he only put himself under house arrest, not with murderous intentions.
It is also because of the presence of the mother concubine that the Liu family will stand on their side.
The existence of Concubine Liu can be described as a bridge to balance Xuanyuan Chen and the Liu family, because with this bridge, her own path has gone much smoother.
But now that Concubine Liu Shu is dead, the bridge has fallen, and the road in the future can only be walked alone, but from then on, the road will become very difficult, and it may fall into the hands of Xuanyuan Haoling.
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Haodi couldn't help but slide down two lines with tears in his eyes.
raised his eyes to look at Concubine Liu Shu's colorless face, and suddenly saw a scar on the side of her neck, and her eyes suddenly tightened.
Xuanyuan Haodi turned over Concubine Liu Shu's head and looked at the scar carefully, the blood stains of the wound had long since dried up, and it looked like it was brown at this time.
Raising his hand and touching the wound, he found that the wound was slender and deep, as if it had been slipped by some sharp blade.
Looking at the extent to which the wound was deep enough to see the bone, Xuanyuan Haodi could be sure that this was the real cause of Concubine Liu's death.
Thinking that Concubine Liu Shufei was killed, Xuanyuan Haodi's red eyes showed a strong hatred at this time, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xuanyuan Chen, who suppressed the killing intent in his heart and spoke:
"Father, who killed my mother?"
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen opened his eyes, looked at Xuanyuan Haodi's face full of yin owls, hesitated for a moment before saying:
"I'll send someone to investigate this matter, so don't worry about it. ”
"Father, you know who killed my mother, aren't you?You're shielding the murderer, right?!" Xuanyuan Haodi roared with red eyes.
Seeing this, a trace of hesitation slipped across Xuanyuan Chen's face, not knowing whether to say that Xuanyuan Haoling had something to do with this matter.
But thinking of the relationship between the two, Xuanyuan Chen said in a deep voice:
"When the palace people found your mother in the Imperial Garden, she was already dead, and there was no one around but her and her personal servant, so I don't know who killed her now. ”
