Chapter 039: Fallen Soul
"Which maid?" Long Yu'er staggered to the edge of the chair and sat down, and after steadying her breath, she said, "There are so many maids in this princess's courtyard, how can they remember all of them." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"This was discovered from a well," Zhuang Hanxue said, "and if we hadn't found it early, we wouldn't know how long we would have been drinking dirty water these days." ”
Long Yu'er suppressed her desire to vomit and said to Yang An: "Lord Wang, this kind of thing Yu'er won't come forward, and it will be uncomfortable to look at it." ”
Yang An said, "Huanxi, go over and see if this person is a maid from Furong Courtyard?"
Huanxi couldn't hold back his fear and walked up to identify it, and said, "Back to the prince, this person is indeed our new maid Xiaobi." It's just that none of us knew about her falling into the well. ”
Hearing the word new, Cheng Jingjing had an ominous premonition in her heart, she secretly looked inside, and was immediately shocked. The corpse lying on the ground was actually the little maid she met today, why did she suddenly jump into the well and die?
"Lord Wang, someone said to the concubine just now that this maid was scolded by Sister Long for doing something wrong today, so she must have gone to death if she couldn't think about it, right?"
Hearing Zhuang Hanxue say this, Yang An asked Long Yu'er: "Is there such a thing?"
"Yu'er just reprimanded her......" Long Yu'er saw that she had no way to quibble, so she pretended to be aggrieved and said: "This girl is working roughly, and she knocked over the cherries that the prince brought back from the palace, Yu'er scolded her a few words when she was angry, who knew that she couldn't think about it, so she ran to find death......
"Forcing people to seek death, I'm afraid Sister Long is not just a simple scolding. Zhuang Hanxue said with oil and vinegar on the side.
"Now that the identity of the deceased has been ascertained, let's disperse," Yang An instructed Lone Ying at this time: "You check the body again tonight and determine the cause of death." ”
On the way back, Cheng Jingjing always felt that this matter was not simple after thinking about it. Seeing her tangled expression, Wen Miao asked, "What's the matter, do you know the dead maid?"
"I really know her," Cheng Jingjing whispered, "I met her by chance this morning, and I went up to comfort her when I saw her crying." What Long Yu'er said was indeed true, but that girl stabilized after comforting me, how could she run to jump into the well in the blink of an eye?"
"What do you mean...... Was she killed?" Wen Miao's heart jumped.
"Maybe," Cheng Jingjing said in a deep voice, "Only when the cause of death is found out can we make a conclusion." This girl is also a bitter fate, she died as soon as she entered King An's mansion, if she was really scolded to death by Long Yu'er, Lord An would definitely not indulge her again this time. ”
On the other side, after Long Yu'er returned to the Furong Courtyard, she angrily asked Huanxi: "What the hell is going on, how could that dead girl run to seek death? ”
"The princess is angry," Huanxi whispered, "that girl ran out crying this morning, and you were still angry, and we didn't dare to follow her to stop her......"
"Say a few words to her and go to death!" Ouch," Long Yu'er suddenly held her stomach and said in pain: "Quickly call the imperial doctor, this princess's stomach hurts so much." ”
"Princess, don't be angry anymore," Huanxi anxiously supported her: "Last time, the imperial doctor also said that this is the most dangerous in the third month of pregnancy, and if you don't pay attention to the fetus, you will have a miscarriage." ”
"Shut your crow's mouth!"
Long Yu'er glared at her and was helped to the bedroom.
The next day, Lone Ying told Yang An the cause of Xiaobi's death, the maid did fall into the well and died, and there were no scars or traces of a fight on her body, as for whether she couldn't think about it or stumbled, no one knew.
Yang An sent someone to inform Xiaobi's family of the news, and sent a large amount of consolation money as compensation, and the matter passed silently.
However, these days, there are rumors in the Tian'an Palace, where there are female ghosts returning to take revenge. Everyone was talking about saying that it was the Dragon Princess who reprimanded her excessively and killed the little maid. It is even rumored that if you pass by the well at night, you will see a white shadow floating around, and you will say, "Give me my life...... Give me back my life......"
"Which dog slave eats the bear's heart and the leopard dares to spread the gossip of this princess! If you are caught by this princess, you must tear her dog's mouth!"
In the Furong courtyard, Long Yu'er threw a teacup to the ground, and the servants below knelt on the ground in fright. Huanxi comforted her in a good voice on the side: "The princess is angry, it's not good to hurt the fetus for some unfounded rumors, those dog slaves are too idle on weekdays, wait for you to give birth to the little prince, see if they dare to talk nonsense!"
"Hmph, they have itchy skin when they see that this princess can't move," Long Yu'er gritted her teeth and said, "After this princess gives birth, she has to catch them all and beat them all out." ”
"However, the princess ......" said happily and hesitantly: "That Xiaobi is a little unjust to die...... Why don't we find someone to secretly go to the well and burn some paper money for her, so that she won't make trouble? ”
"You dead girl, you also think that this princess killed her?" Long Yu'er twisted her ears and scolded: "What a little thing that doesn't have a long heart, this princess has been hurting you for so long!"
"The princess spares her life, the slave and maid don't dare anymore!"
On this day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and the spring day had also fallen, and Huaizhu came to send a letter to Wen Miao, saying that Princess Zhuang invited her to go to the garden to enjoy the peach blossoms.
"The princess specially instructed that as long as Mrs. Wen and you go alone. ”
After listening to Huaizhu's words, Wen Miao hesitated and walked out with her, without telling anyone else her whereabouts.
"How can my sister be interested in enjoying the peach blossoms today?"
After Wen Miao followed Huaizhu to the garden, she saw Zhuang Hanxue standing there waiting for her. The other party saw her coming, and said with a smile: "This peach blossom is blooming beautifully, and it is a pity to enjoy it alone, so I thought of letting my sister and you come to watch it together." ”
"Princess, Mrs. Wen, the slave and maid will not bother you. ”
At this time, Huaizhu bent down and retreated, and only the two of them were left in the garden. Zhuang Hanxue said to Wen Miao: "Sister, sit down, there are only you and me here, so there is no need for too much etiquette." ”
Wen Miao saw that the other party didn't put up a fight with her, so she sat down with confidence. After the two talked and laughed for a while, Zhuang Hanxue suddenly asked: "I heard that my sister was embarrassed by the Dragon Princess some time ago and was splashed with tea in public, is there anything wrong?"
"Who did my sister listen to?" Wen Miao said with an embarrassed face: "We didn't serve well that day, and it wasn't the Dragon Princess who deliberately embarrassed me......"
"You don't have to be reckless in front of me," Zhuang Hanxue held her hand and said softly: "You were wantonly bullied by the Dragon Princess, we all see it in our eyes, if there is any grievance that is inconvenient to tell the prince, just tell my sister." ”
