18 Death of Madame Shang
readx;
Chu Rongqin covered her heart, frowning, a little puzzled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
She has never felt this way, but just now, her heart was a little blocked.
Chu Rongzhen smiled slightly, "It's because I saw Big Brother Qi holding Miss Qian, so I felt uncomfortable?" ”
Chu Rongqin thought for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.
Stretching out her hand to put on a dress for her, Chu Rongzhen smiled softly, "You don't like Miss Qian being held by Brother Qi, then Brother Qi is holding other young ladies, is it okay?" ”
Chu Rongqin tried to think about that kind of picture, frowned very unhappily, and shook his head vigorously, "I don't like it!" ”
"Then think about it, are you angry or happy when you are held in the arms of Big Brother Qi?"
Very obediently following Chu Rongzhen's words, imagining that he was being held in his arms by Yan Qi, his heart suddenly trembled slightly, and his little face slowly turned red......
Chu Rongzhen took in her expression and smiled playfully.
The two are happy!
"How? Are you in a hurry to push away the big chess brother and get angry, or do you want time to stop and be happy? ”
Chu Rongqin's little face became redder and redder, and she was very embarrassed.
With a red face, he turned his head, and his voice was like a mosquito, "Happy!" ”
"What? I didn't hear it! ”
"I said it, it's fun!" Chu Rongqin raised his voice.
"Sister, be louder, I really didn't hear clearly!" Chu Rongzhen smiled suspiciously.
Chu Rongqin lifted her ear and yelled: "I'm very happy to be held by Big Brother Qi!" ”
Suddenly, Yan Qi, who reached out to open the tent and walked in, stopped like a stake as if he had been stunned by lightning.
Chu Rongqin raised her head and glanced at him, her little face flushed and shy.
Chu Rongzhen smiled slightly, walked to Yan Qi's side, pushed him hard, pushed him into the tent, walked out, and stood by the door......
Yan Qi came back to his senses and understood that this was a good opportunity for Chu Rongzhen to stab him, so he glanced at her gratefully and looked at Chu Rongqin softly.
"Chess...... What did Big Brother Chess do when he came in...... I'm changing clothes......" For the first time, she stuttered with Yanqi.
"Isn't the piano changed?" As soon as the qin sounded, Chu Rongqin's little face turned red, turned his head, and glared angrily.
"Don't call someone Qin'er, it sounds too shy, it's been called Anning for several years......"
Walking to Chu Rongqin's side, Yan Qi pulled her and looked at her tenderly, "Qin'er, can I call you that?" ”
My heart was beating wildly, and I wanted to go straight to a hole in the ground, I was too shy.
"You...... Didn't you call them all? What do you have to ask now? ”
Chu Rongqin blushed and looked shy, looking at Yan Qi's eyes, she only felt that it was extremely attractive, or her arrogant mouth was hard, it was really cute.
I used to think she was cute, but now it's even cuter......
"Then I'll call you Qin'er in the future, just agree." Yanqi looked at her lovingly, and said tenderly: "Qin'er, I like you, I've liked you since I was a child......"
"No kidding, big chess brother ......"
"You know, I'm never joking!"
His eyes looked at her affectionately, his eyes were full of soft affection, and the gentle gaze seemed to burn her heart, which was both sweet and painful.
"Qin'er, believe it or not, I like you, I like you, I like you!"
A few likes in succession, which made Chu Rongqin, who blushed shyly, hurriedly stretched out his hand, covered his lips, and stopped the more shy words from coming out.
"Don't say it, I know!"
The soft touch on her lips, Yan Qi looked at her gently, stretched out her hand, held her hand, kissed gently, and her handsome face was full of love and affection.
"Let it go...... Let go! With a sudden kiss, Chu Rongqin stammered, her blood rushed to her brain, and she was a little dizzy.
"Don't let it go!" Yan Qi suddenly smiled evilly, looked at the red-faced Chu Rongqin, stretched out his hand, held her in his arms, rested his head on her ear, and his low and hoarse voice carried a hint of temptation, "Qin'er, my embrace, do you like it?" ”
"I don't like it, let it go quickly, men and women can't stand it!"
"Little liar, I just said I wanted to be hugged!"
"That's, that's ......"
Gently rubbing Chu Rongzhen's side face, the slight breath blew on the tips of her ears, causing Chu Rongqin's body to be numb and sour......
She had never been so teased, her body was weak, and she fell into Yan Qi's arms, her little face was flushed, and she opened her mouth and gasped for breath.
"Big Brother Chess......
Hooked her chin, lightly imprinted her red lips, and quickly fled.
He didn't want to scare her, but finally this girl opened her mind, and went too far, what if she scared her away?
The soft touch on his lips, Chu Rongqin's heart beat wildly, buried his head in Yanqi's chest, and refused to raise his face.
"Qin'er, be careful of being suffocated!"
"Ignore me!" Chu Rongqin blushed, tugging at the placket of Yan Qi's chest with both hands, and secretly hooked his lips.
Without meeting his hot and loving eyes, Chu Rongqin's mood gradually calmed down, and his brain, which almost exploded, also returned to thinking, shy and timid, and slowly calmed down.
"Big brother chess, I'm ...... I don't seem to like you hugging Miss Qian......"
Yan Qi's expression was suddenly gentle, and his big hand stroked her head, loving and happy.
Before, she was too young to understand love, so he was waiting.
After leaving the capital for a few years, he didn't expect him to get closer and closer to Ling Liang, and they had a very good relationship with each other so closely, which made him a little worried.
Fortunately, Ling Liang had no intention of Qin'er, and Qin'er didn't open up at all.
The sudden move opened her mind, and she really had to thank Chu Rongzhen and Qian Shuirou.
"Why don't you like it?"
"I don't know, anyway, I don't like Brother Qi holding other women!" is a little willful, Chu Rongqin doesn't understand this feeling.
"Qin'er likes me too?" Yanqi's eyes lit up, and he hooked his lips happily.
Chu Rongqin got up from Yanqi's embrace, her little face was a little puzzled, and she didn't know whether to nod or shake her head.
obviously didn't understand this, and Yanqi was not discouraged, but lured.
"Qin'er, if, if I marry another woman in the future, can you accept it?"
As soon as Yan Qi's words came out, Chu Rongqin's smile froze, and he looked at him in disbelief, "Yan Daqi wants to marry a wife?" ”
She had never thought about the problem, and the heart, suddenly began to ache, so painful that she couldn't breathe.
Tears flowed uncontrollably, Chu Rongqin felt the strangeness on her face, stretched out her hand, and looked at the tears in her hand, "Huh? Why? Why do you cry? Why can't you stop? ”
Reaching out to wipe the tears on her face, she couldn't stop it, looking up at Yan Qi, her face was full of tears, and she couldn't understand the doubts and pain.
With a soft sigh, he took her into his arms again.
"Lie to you!"
This sentence was like a switch, Chu Rongqin's tears flowed even more fiercely, and she fell into her arms and cried softly.
In an instant, I understood why my heart hurt and why I couldn't stop crying......
Because she doesn't want to, doesn't want to see the woman with whom Brother Qi becomes her own child, she doesn't want to see that scene.
After a long time, Chu Rongzhen's quarrel came from the tent, and the two came back to their senses, sorted out their clothes, and looked good.
Outside the tent, Chu Rongzhen stopped Wang Nan outside and said coldly: "Wang Shizi stops!" ”
"Get out of here!" Wang Nan stared at her unhappily, and was about to rush in, but he saw that Yan Qi and Chu Rongqin were here.
Hmph, he must go in, and it's best to let the two of them fall into disrepute.
Wang Nan was followed by a group of powerful young ladies who stood far away and did not step forward.
Although Chu Rongzhen is a concubine, her rank is in her body, so she is not too rude to her.
"My sister is changing clothes inside, Wang Shizi forcibly broke in, this is a villain's behavior!"
"Ben Shizi saw that Yan Qi also went in, why, he can go in, Ben Shizi can't do it?"
Chu Rongzhen sneered and raised her eyes, "Wang Shizi's ability to speak in the vernacular is not small, who doesn't know that Wang Shizi loves Sister Lin, so he also thinks that it was the people of the Chu Wangfu who killed her, and he has always been full of hatred for the people of my Chu Wangfu, even if you slipped your hands at the intersection just now, you didn't care, why, if you don't slander my Chu Wangfu, you won't be reconciled?" ”
"Bold, you are a little county lord, you dare to be rude to this son, what a big boldness!"
"As the prince of the world, Wang Shizi should understand that catching thieves and taking thieves and slandering his sister's reputation without evidence or Wang Shizi is fearless?"
"Get out of the way, otherwise don't blame this son for being polite!"
Wang Nanyin stared at Chu Rongzhen fiercely, very angry at her ignorance.
Chu Rongzhen's hands moved slightly in his sleeves, looked at Wang Shizi who stepped forward, rushed forward, pushed vigorously, and his little face was full of anger: "Don't enter!" ”
Wang Nan didn't notice it for a while, was pushed back two steps, angrily pulled out the long sword at his waist, and stabbed at her......
At this time, Yan Qi, who was going around from behind, rushed out of the crowd, and at the same time, Chu Rongqin rushed out of the tent, flying with a long whip, and the mission was pumped, his little face was full of anger, and he scolded while smoking.
"Wang Nan, you bastard, and you still have the face to appear in front of the county lord? What's the matter, this time it's time to blame again? I, Chu Rongqin, are inseparable from you! ”
"Tranquility, degassing!" The two guards beside the crown prince Chu Chenyu stepped forward and grabbed Chu Rongqin's whip, not letting her smoke Wang Nan's body.
Chu Chenyu stepped forward to act as a peacemaker.
Wang Gonghou was already on the side of the prince, and it was not surprising that he would come forward to relieve the siege.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, if you don't kill this bastard, I'll be angry!" Chu Rongqin held the soft whip, and he couldn't wait to step forward and bite off a piece of his flesh before he was willing.
She was really angry, and targeted her one after another, and she was not a saint, so it was strange if she was not angry.
"Wang Shizi didn't mean it, don't be angry with An Ning, now the misunderstanding has been resolved, everyone is gone!"
Chu Chenyu's tone was strong, and when everyone heard this, they could only leave obediently.
With Wang Nan, Chu Chenyu nodded slightly at a few people, then turned around and left.
Chu Rongqin's anger did not subside, and Yan Qi comforted, "Don't be angry, don't worry, he will never be better!" ”
"Hmph, dare to appear in front of me, I'll smoke it once I see it!"
Angry, Chu Rongqin pulled Chu Rongzhen away, and she really had no interest in staying.
There were as many people as they came, and as many as they returned, but there was one more horse.
When leaving, Chu Rongzhen also went to see Chasing the Wind, and said goodbye, I didn't want to chase the wind and follow the carriage leisurely, so I wanted to go back to the house with her.
There is some hesitation, if it is raised, will it be rubbed away from the wildness.
She likes to chase the wind, wild and free, unrestrained, and she yearns for it as a human being.
However, Chu Rongqin patted his chest and said that the Chu Wangfu was big enough to let it walk, so there was no need to worry about it.
In the end, she had to agree that if she really wanted to go back with her, she would let it go.
In the dark around the corner, Chu Chenyu had a gloomy face, staring at their departing backs, staring at Wang Nan with displeasure, and his tone was cold, "Useless things, let you get Chu Rongqin, you can't get it, this time I did this kind of thing, this palace didn't have the leisure to follow behind your ass to clean up the aftermath for you." ”
"Your Highness is angry, and Weichen knows his mistake!" Wang Nan bent over and stared at Chu Rongqin's back with hatred.
When he woke up that day because of pain, he found himself lying in the alley, with a pain in his lower body.
His roots are considered useless.
Chu Rongqin's whereabouts are unknown, and he has become what he is now, and he is absolutely inseparable from her.
dares to destroy his life, he is the only seedling of the Wang family......
After crying to his father about this, his father slapped him directly in the face and scolded him for being useless.
Although it will deal with this matter, there is no information on how to deal with it......
"Get Chu Rongqin in your hands, no matter what method you use!" Chu Chenyu was very dissatisfied with his failure, of course, he didn't know about Wang Nan's life root being abolished, and it was impossible for Wang Gonghou to tell about it.
The Wang family cut off the incense, but they could only endure it, and the resentment was naturally not small.
"Yes!"
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared into their eyes that the two turned to leave.
Suddenly, Wang Nan reached out behind his ear and stopped.
"What's wrong?"
"It's fine!"
Just now it feels like my ears are a little itchy, and it seems to be an illusion.
Turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
After Chu Rongqin and Chu Rongzhen said goodbye to Ling Liang, the two returned to the Chu Palace, holding hands, followed by a black steed behind them, and headed towards the courtyard of the princess of Chu.
"Mother, mother, mother......" As soon as Chu Rongqin began to call.
Princess Chu and Old Prince Chu were drinking tea and talking about things, and when they heard her voice, they raised their heads one after another.
He frowned slightly as he looked at the tall black horse that followed.
When the prince of Chu saw the chasing wind, his eyes lit up, even at his age, the allure of a good horse was very huge.
got up, walked to Chasing Feng beside Chu Rongzhen, looked carefully, touched his beard and nodded, "Good horse, where did you come from?" ”
"Grandpa, let me tell you, it's chasing the wind, it's the king of horses, the crown prince, the king of Xi, and the cousin...... Many people tried to tame it, but none of it wanted to admit its master, and finally took the initiative to follow Zhen'er back, isn't Zhen'er very powerful? ”
"Zhen'er tamed it?"
Chu Rongqin hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, "No, Zhen'er doesn't know how to ride and shoot, so I'm not interested in it at all." It somehow stuck to Zhen'er, and finally followed it with a beggar face...... Yes...... Get out, you're biting me again......"
Chu Rongqin's head sank, and he immediately jumped to his feet, waving his pink fist and glaring at the wind.
It was bitten again, damn it, is it a dog or a horse?
Chu Rongzhen looked at one person and one horse with a smile, "Sure enough, Chasing the wind likes my sister very much?" Look, it's very close to my sister......"
"Fart, it's a horse, okay? What's it like to gnaw people's heads like a dog every time? Chu Rongzhen pointed at Chasing the Wind, Chasing the Wind stretched his head over, opened his mouth, and bit off all her hands in one bite......
"Ah......" There was another scream, pushing the head of the chasing wind hard, Chu Rongzhen shouted without an image, causing everyone in the house to think that something had happened.
Old Prince Chu laughed, looking at Chasing the Wind with great appreciation, touching his beard, and smiling in his eyes, "Yes, it is indeed human, and it is full of wildness, it is really a good horse!" ”
"A good horse is a good horse, but it bites ......"
Looking at the saliva on her hands in disgust, Chu Rongqin wanted to cry without tears.
"My sister has a really good relationship with Chasing Wind, and sure enough, Chasing Wind likes my sister very much!" Chu Rongzhen looked at the interaction of one person and one horse, and smiled lightly.
Even Princess Chu couldn't help but smile.
"Cut, a brute's favorite, the county lord disdains!" Disgusted glanced at the chasing wind, saw it bite again, and immediately retreated.
"My sister has a good relationship with Chasing the Wind, maybe I will have the opportunity to go for a walk and compete together in the future, and my sister also knows the speed and ability of Chasing the Wind, which should be rare in the world, right?"
"It's not rare in the world, it's unique!" Chu Rongqin's appreciation was very clear in his words.
"Chasing the wind is a wild horse at first glance, living in the palace, will it destroy its wildness?" Princess Chu was worried, she didn't understand how powerful the existence of chasing the wind was, but she could faintly feel the wildness on it.
Judging from the action of gnawing people, it is full of wildness.
Old Prince Chu was also a little worried, this is a rare good horse in the world, it is a pity to destroy the wildness in vain.
"What's this, wouldn't it be nice to let it live freely in the house? My palace is so big, isn't there no one living in the west? They knocked down the yard and made it flat, and the land was big enough for it to live on. Wouldn't it be nice to let Chasing the Wind live there? ”
The old prince of Chu also liked it, thought for a while, and nodded: "By the way, the mansion next door has been deserted for a long time, Yu'er, you go and inquire, see if the other party sells it, buy it and expand it to Chasing the wind,"
"Yes!"
"Grandpa is so good, thank you Grandpa!" Chu Rongqin smiled happily, and didn't forget to turn her head and smile proudly at the wind, "Miss Ben has found such a good place for you, if you dare to bite Miss Ben in the future, you will wait......"
"Ah...... You're biting again...... I'm not done with you......"
The mansion suddenly became lively, and occasionally you could see a black horse running and jumping in the mansion, and occasionally appearing in the front yard, provoking the little maid to hide far away.
The old prince ordered that no one should harm this horse.
Chu Rongzhen sat in Princess Chu's room, listening to the cheerful hissing of chasing the wind, and smiled slightly.
"Zhen'er, there's news from Feng Wei, take this!" handed Chu Rongzhen a piece of jade pendant, the unique pattern seems ordinary.
If you look closely, you can find that this is an extremely low-grade jade, but the carving skills are first-class, and it is not inferior to the handwriting of the carving master.
took the jade pendant and said nothing.
"From now on, the assessment begins, and by the end of His Majesty's birthday, get the jade pendants of the other two, then you will be the winner!" Princess Chu looked at her seriously and told her carefully.
"Must you get both?"
"Not necessarily, as long as you have two in your hand, you are the winner! From now until His Majesty's birthday, this is the assessment time. ”
Chu Rongzhen played with the jade pendant in her hand, her eyes were different, and she slowly raised her hand, and when Princess Chu saw this, she got up and tied it around her neck for her.
"For the sake of fairness, this jade pendant must be carried with you!"
"I don't carry it with me and no one knows, there's nothing fair or unfair at all." Chu Rongzhen lightly hooked her lips.
"That being said, as one of the captains, I deserve to be fair and impartial, so you can't afford not to wear it,"
"I understand, as long as I hide from your eyeliner!"
"......" Princess Chu smiled faintly and nodded, "Yes, there is no fairness, as long as you can avoid my sight, it doesn't matter if you will wear it closely." ”
"Is that okay? You should be one of the proctors too, right? ”
"There is no rule that says I must stare at your jade pendant every day......"
"The mother concubine is so bad, she takes advantage of the loopholes of the rules."
The two looked at each other and smiled, revealing a touch of treachery, and a touch of inevitability.
has no love for Princess Chu, but she admires Princess Chu's character to some extent.
Although she was a little unhappy about being abandoned some time ago, it didn't matter more, just like she had told Princess Chu before, without prejudice to her wishes, any abandonment of her could be forgiven.
And her only wish is to live a few more years.
It is estimated that it is because of the somewhat similar personalities, perhaps the princess of Chu also knows that she will not admit her as a concubine, so now their relationship is almost the same as friends.
I don't know each other well, and without the burden of my mother, I get along a lot more casually and easily.
The thief smiled, Princess Chu narrowed her eyes, picked up the teacup and drank slowly, her eyes showing a fine light.
"By the way, I have already informed my father about this, once there is a candidate, I will take the jade pendant for you first, you don't have to rush to deal with it, just hand it over to your grandfather!"
Chu Rongzhen was slightly surprised, with the heart of the old prince of Chu, he shouldn't be able to do this kind of thing, right?
Just as he was about to speak, outside the door, Xia Ling ran over, his face full of panic: "Niangniang, it's not good, something is wrong, Mrs. Shang is dead......
"What's going on?" Princess Chu looked serious.
"I don't know, Mrs. Shang is dead, and someone found Concubine Wan standing next to her with a bloody dagger, so she was temporarily escorted down ......"
"Check it out!"
Princess Chu and Chu Rongzhen got up and walked to Mrs. Shang's courtyard.
There were many people in Mrs. Shang's courtyard, one by one, probing their brains and discussing.
"What's going on?" The majestic voice of the King of Chu came, and everyone got out of the way and bent down to salute.
Somewhere in the courtyard, Mrs. Shang was lying on the ground, with a large amount of blood flowing from her chest, a bloody dagger scattered around her, and Concubine Wan, who was forcibly held to the ground by the guards and kept shouting that she had been wronged.
I haven't seen her for a few months, Concubine Wan is as thin as a bone, her original plump body has disappeared, and she is getting a lot older.
His cloudy and yellowish eyes rolled wildly, and he kept struggling and shouting.
"Let go...... Let go of the concubine ......"
"Who found out first?" Princess Chu and Chu Rongzhen walked in, looked at the scene, and immediately asked.
"Back to the princess, she is a slave, and the slave is the lady's personal maid!" Mrs. Shang's body maid walked out and knelt in front of Princess Chu, her eyes were red and swollen, and she was obviously sad and cried.
"Tell me about it!"
"Yes, the slave maid accompanied the lady to the yard for a walk, and suddenly the lady said that she wanted to eat something sour, so she asked the slave and maid to go to the room to get the preserved fruit that she usually eats, and when the slave and maid brought it, she found that the lady was no longer in the same place, and after looking around, she found the lady who fell to the ground here......"
Listening to Su'er's testimony, Princess Chu's eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked coldly, "How much time did it take from the time you left to the time you arrived?" ”
"About five hours!"
"So long?" Princess Chu frowned.
"Yes, because Madame was not in the same place, I sent people to look around, but I found Madame nowhere else. When I was looking for a confession to tell the princess about this, the slave maid found the lady who fell to the ground here, or Concubine Wan, who also fainted on the ground with a dagger......"
Princess Chu thought for a while, and when she looked at Chu Rongzhen and shook her head, she ordered with a cold face: "Go and ask for help!" ”
Chu Rongzhen took the pulse, and the fetus was not saved.
Waiting in place for almost half an hour, Chu Rongzhen took advantage of this time to look around the environment, swept the blood stains on Concubine Wan's body, and carefully examined Mrs. Shang's body.
"Zhen'er, what did you find?"
Chu Rongzhen shook his head, his eyes were on Mrs. Shang's earrings, and a pair of Zhuzhen earrings were missing.
After a brief salute, he sent someone to pull up the white cloth and conduct an autopsy on the spot, and after a pillar of incense, he slowly walked out.
"Princess Qi, the cause of death of the deceased was a stab in the heart, and there were no other scars on the body. The temperature of the corpse dropped slightly, and it should only be about an hour after death......"
Chu Rongzhen didn't understand the autopsy, and was a little curious, "How can you tell how long you have been dead?" ”
"Now the weather temperature we can feel cold, the best season for food and meat preservation, after death, in this environment every time the body temperature will drop a little, the longer the time, the colder the body temperature, the body will be stiff in about four hours, that is, the servants often say zombie. Mortis is the most important symptom in determining the time of a person's death......"
Chu Rongzhen nodded.
"In the summer, when people die, it also cools down?"
"In summer, if it is the hottest time at noon, the corpse will not change in any way, it will not cool down and it will not stiffen, and the corpse spots will appear extremely quickly......"
Looking at the conversation between Chu Rongzhen and Qi Zuo, Princess Chu said lightly: "It means that the time of Mrs. Shang's death is about an hour?" ”
"No more than two hours at most!"
"Well, I'm tired!"
"Don't dare, don't dare!" He hurriedly bent down and packed up his eating tools.
Died for one to two hours, then Concubine Wan was a major suspect, and the blood stains on the dagger were about to dry......
"Concubine Wan, did you kill Mrs. Shang?" Princess Chu asked lightly.
"No, I didn't kill it, I don't know anything, I woke up and got here, I didn't kill it......" Concubine Wan shook her head vigorously, she didn't want to admit it at all, and she couldn't admit it.
Struggling vigorously like a madman, Chu Rongzhen retreated, threw the main matter to Princess Chu, and retreated as a bystander.
"What happened?" Behind her back, Chu Rongqin wrapped her waist around her back and put her head on her shoulder.
With a slight smile, Chu Rongzhen's body relaxed as soon as she stiffened, "Mrs. Shang died, and Concubine Wan was taken on the spot and treated as a murderer." ”
"Huh? Then she's the murderer? ”
"I don't know, the concubine is still investigating!" Chu Rongzhen shook his head.
Mrs. Shang died for one or two hours, and there was no corpse stiffness, indicating that the time of death did not exceed four hours. There was only a very slight stiffness, indicating that the time of death was not long at all, so it was assumed that it was one or two hours.
The dagger in Concubine Wan's hand was exactly the same as the wound on Mrs. Shang's heart, and the murder weapon was the one in Concubine Wan's hand.
However, Concubine Wan's testimony said that she was here when she came back to her senses because she suddenly lost consciousness, and she was completely unaware of everything.
Concubine Wan's motive for killing Mrs. Shang is not enough, she is completely unable to protect herself now, why did she kill Mrs. Shang?
"Sister, do you want to go to Concubine Wan's courtyard to have a look?"
"Okay, Zhen'er wants to learn from Master Qingtian to investigate the case?" Chu Rongqin was very interested.
"It's not, it's just that Concubine Wan said that she suddenly lost consciousness and came here, so how did she come out? It's better to ask the guards, she's grounded now......"
agreed with Chu Rongzhen's analysis, pulled her, and took the lead towards Concubine Wan's courtyard.
Because Concubine Wan and Zai had an affair and the child was abandoned, she had been locked in her room, guarded by two guards outside the door, and she was not allowed to go out for a step.
There was no sign of damage to the door lock, except for the mess in the back room, which was probably something she threw away to vent her feelings.
"There's nothing here at all? The lock seems to be slammed open from the inside out, which I do a lot......"
Chu Rongqin and Chu Rongzhen both stood at the door lock, quietly watching the broken lock, which was indeed destroyed from the inside out.
"Sister, don't think that everyone is as savage as you, it's impossible for Concubine Wan to break this lock, even if I have a little internal force now, how can she? Even if it hits it open, it will be hit many times, and the guards outside will not be able to hear it? ”
Throwing out a few doubts one after another, Chu Rongqin touched his chin and nodded.
Suddenly, "No, who do you say is barbaric?" ”
The wolf's claws stretched out to Chu Rongzhen, and Chu Rongzhen dodged directly......
Chu Rongzhen thought carefully, and after checking Concubine Wan's room again, she and Chu Rongqin came to Princess Chu.
Princess Chu here because Concubine Wan could not provide evidence, and the dagger in Concubine Wan's hand and the time of Mrs. Shang's death, she determined that Concubine Wan was the murderer, imprisoned her, and waited for the prince of Chu to return to the house to deal with it.
The body of Mrs. Shang was carried away, the empty house was placed, and the mourning hall was erected.
Chu Rongzhen watched this scene quietly and did not interject, she didn't care about whether Concubine Wan was the murderer or not.
She didn't want to be kind enough to clear Concubine Wan's name, but she was a little curious.
If what Concubine Wan said was true, and someone really knocked her out and brought her here, then that person was the murderer.
But who is that man?
While thinking, he walked towards his yard......
It's just a little Borun, for her......
When I looked down and thought about it, I accidentally swept a touch of white, which was more special in the snowless present.
Walking to the grass to the side, a pure white and round pearl was lying quietly on the grass, which had just sprouted.
Isn't this Madame Shang's pearl earrings?
Looking at the pearl earrings in the palm of her hand, Chu Rongzhen tilted her head and looked puzzled.
This is not near Madame Shang's yard, why did her earrings fall here?
After looking around, looking up at his yard in the distance, Chu Rongzhen pursed his lips.
"Lian, look around, is there anything unusual."
"Yes!"
Chu Rongzhen clenched the pearl and did not go back to the courtyard, but went to Mrs. Shang's mourning hall.
Because she was a little puzzled, wondering where the earrings came from.
Mrs. Shang's mourning hall had just been set up, and Su Er was sobbing softly with red and swollen eyes burning paper money.
Hearing the voice, he turned around and saw Chu Rongzhen, kneeling on the ground and turning around, supporting the ground with both hands, "County Lord!" ”
"These earrings, but Mrs. Shang's?" Take out the pearl in your hand.
Su'er took it, walked to the side of Mrs. Shang's corpse, compared it carefully, and nodded half-loudly: "Yes, this is confirmed to be Madame's earrings, and the slave maid put it on her in the morning......"
"Did Mrs. Shang say where she was going out of the yard today?"
Chu Rongzhen walked over to Mrs. Shang's corpse, stretched out his hand, and put the slippery arm back on his abdomen.
Feeling the feeling of her skin, Chu Rongzhen was slightly stunned, and a flash of light flashed in her mind, as if she felt something strange......
"Madame didn't say it, but Madame said that she wanted to dress up well, so she took out earrings that are not usually used, this pearl is the Nanhu pearl that the prince gave to Madame, and it is Madame's most precious jewelry......"
Put on your best jewelry, and it looks like you're really going to go out.
After a brief exchange, Chu Rongzhen left Mrs. Shang's mourning hall.
"Lian, how is the investigation?" While leaving, Chu Rongzhen's expression was dark.
Youyou showed a complicated smile, and it was really like the side concubine was not a murderer.
However, she won't say!
"Near the pearl fall, five hundred meters to the southeast, there were traces of new earth, about the size of an adult. Bury a person just ......"
After being confirmed, Chu Kongzhen nodded with satisfaction.
When she returned to the courtyard, she got the news that after Concubine Wan was scolded by the cane for twenty boards, the prince of Chu waved his pen and threw a letter of resignation to her and ignored her.
Let her bang on the door of the Chu Palace, the gate is closed, not allowing her to enter.
Concubine Wan cried until the evening, and then she was unwilling to leave......
When Chu Rongzhen learned everything, he just smiled slightly, "Lian, you want to find a way to go to Luofu and let Luo Qi do things well!" ”
"Yes!"
Luo Qi fell for her Gu poison, and if she obediently did things for her, she would feel better.
I don't worry that Luo Qi will resist at all, Gu poison is not poison, and there are not many people who can solve it.
"Does Miss know the truth about Mrs. Shang's death?" Shu'er squatted on the ground, nibbling on the spicy beef in her hand, and looked up to ask.
"Why do you think so?" A little surprised, when did Shu'er become so shrewd?
Swallowing the beef in his hand in one gulp, he licked his fingers, "Seeing that you are smiling like a fox now, you must know something!" ”
Chu Rongzhen looked at her funny, it is estimated that Shu'er has been by her side for a long time, and she more or less understands the meaning of her expression.
"Hmm!"
When Shu'er heard this, her eyes lit up slightly, "Who is who?" It's not Concubine Wan, right? ”
Chu Rongzhen shook her head, "I don't know, but something will happen tonight, if the murderer is someone else, the other party will do it!" ”
Looking at Chu Rongzhen in confusion, Shu'er picked up another piece of beef and ate it slowly.
Shu'er had a happy smile on her face, and sure enough, she was able to eat enough beef for half a year, hehe......
Chu Rongzhen's words were verified that night, and a fire woke everyone up.
Mrs. Shang's mourning hall suddenly caught fire, and the girl Su'er was burned to death in the mourning hall together.
When everyone woke up from the fire, the fire was out of control, and they could only watch Mrs. Shang's mourning hall be destroyed by the fire.
Standing quietly in the crowd, looking at the skyrocketing fire, Chu Rongzhen hooked her lips slightly.
Sure enough, it did.
"Oh my God, why did it burn for no reason?" Chu Rongqin ran over wearing a coat, looked at the fire in front of him, and opened his mouth to sigh.
Burning a mansion was nothing to her, but now she was surprised.
How did this fire burn in the middle of the night?
Princess Chu commanded the little maid to clean up the surrounding courtyards, so as not to be affected by the fire.
The maids carried buckets of water in the nearby lake, and a long water dragon was not extinguished until the early hours of the morning......
It's just that the inside was burned beyond recognition, and not even a single bone could be found, and it was completely turned into ashes......
Chu Rongzhen stretched out his hand and yawned, "Lian, how is it?" ”
"As Miss guessed, a man in black set fire and fled there!"
"Is that really her? Why did you kill Mrs. Shang for no reason? Chu Rongzhen was slightly stunned and smiled strangely.
As she thought, it seemed that the murderer was the one......
Looks like it's time to look it up......
Early the next morning, I briefly disposed of Mrs. Shang's ashes and buried her.
Mrs. Shang's personal maid Su'er disappeared and was judged to have died in the fire, but a maid who signed a death deed could not cause any turmoil whether she was dead or alive.
The only one who caused the wind and waves should be Concubine Wan.
That night, Concubine Wan went back to Luofu, but Luofu closed the door and drove her out, completely refusing to accept her.
I don't know what she said, Concubine Wan was brought into Luo's Mansion for only an hour, and she was driven out again, accompanied by the old master of Luo's family standing at the gate and announcing that Luo Wan was no longer his daughter of Luofu.
Early this morning, the announcement of the disconnection from Concubine Wan was posted......
Luo Wan was officially swept out of the house.
was abandoned by the Chu Palace, disconnected from the Luo family, and the concubine lived on the streets, causing everyone to talk about it......
In the end, the concubine who received Jiwan was the princess of war, Luo Xue.
After Concubine Wan lived on the streets for a few days, Luo Xue bought a small courtyard for her.
She is the only living mouth in the War King's Mansion.
It's not so much a living mouth, it's better to be lucky.
After the king of war left, she went back to Luo's house, because the old master of Luo's family was not in good health, so she went back to the house to ask for peace and stayed for a while.
Perfectly brushed shoulders with death, and she was lucky to survive.
"Third sister, you live here first, sister, I don't have any land to live in, that's all I can help. By the way, there is some silver here, which can be relieved somewhat......" Princess Zhan took out a silver ticket from her hand, the denomination was not large.
Because of the destruction of the War King's Mansion, all her dowry and silver tickets were destroyed, and the gold was turned into water and could barely be exchanged, but the silver tickets were completely burned and suffered heavy losses.
"When you lose power, you know people's hearts, thank you second sister!" Concubine Wan's expression was very bad, because of the recent bad luck and blows, she felt pale for dozens of years.
The gray hair around the ears is like a dying old man.
"Sister, I can't help you more, I don't know what to do when something happens to the Zhanwang Mansion, so I can only deal with it after the prince comes back. So the third sister will live here for the time being, although this yard is small, but it can barely live......"
"Thank you, sister!"
After the war princess talked to Wan Fang Concubine for a few words, the war king got up and left.
However, after the princess left, Luo Qi came to the door.
In the middle of the night, a man in black appeared at her bedside and brought a message asking her to care more about Concubine Wan.
It's best to be enlightened and enlightened......
"Third sister!" Luo Qi walked in cautiously, looking at Concubine Wan, who was a lot older, and was slightly stunned.
"What are you going to do?" Luo Qi and Concubine Wan are more than ten years apart, because they were picked from the sidelines, so Concubine Wan rarely sees this titular sister.
Naturally, the relationship is not good!
"I heard that the third sister had an accident, and as a younger sister, I naturally want to help, and my grandfather is too ruthless, how can I say that we are also a family, how can I say that we will be cut off?"
Concubine Wan stared at her unhappily, "What the hell are you here for?" ”
Luo Qi put the silver ticket in his hand in front of Concubine Wan and smiled slightly, "It's nothing, I just want to sigh with the third sister, it turns out that we are just chess pieces in the eyes of our grandfather, if we are useful, we will be petted, and if we are useless, we will throw it away." My sister, my grandfather knew about my disappearance some time ago, and now my face is getting worse and worse, and I heard that my grandfather plans to marry me to the prince as a concubine! ”
"......" Concubine Wan stared at her suspiciously, silent.
"The third sister knows the age and appearance of Wang Gonghou, and I feel wronged if I marry her as my sister, but my grandfather plans to give me to Wang Gonghou as a concubine...... Whining...... Think about our sisters, which one is not the main room and the side room? Who is like me who is given as a gift as a concubine? ”
seemed to be sympathetic to each other, and Concubine Wan was slightly moved.
She couldn't imagine that one day she would be abandoned, she would be so ruthlessly abandoned.
"Third sister, I don't want to marry someone as a concubine, but no one listens to me, I heard that the eldest sister asked her father, obviously they are all sisters, how can the eldest sister bear to let my sister and me go to other people's concubines......"
Throwing herself into Concubine Wan's arms, Luo Qi cried very sadly.
Concubine Wan listened to her words and was slightly stunned, "The eldest sister said that she wanted you to go to the concubine?" ”
"Yes, what I overheard was proposed by the eldest sister to my grandfather, and I also heard that the eldest sister sent someone to set up an eyeliner in the Chu Palace, I wanted you to cooperate with the poisoning of the county lord of Anning, but I didn't expect you to be locked up ......"
"What? What did you say? Concubine Wan pinched her shoulders vigorously and shook them vigorously.
"It hurts, third sister, you hurt me......"
"Eighth sister, what's the matter with the poisoning you said?" Concubine Wan was very excited, and her face was weirdly twisted.
Luo Qi had tears in the corners of his eyes, and hurriedly said: "I don't know, I just secretly heard that the aunt next to the eldest sister was talking to her grandfather, complaining that the third sister was useless and had no ability to master the Chu Palace, so I want you to fend for yourself......"
Concubine Wan twisted her face and sat back in her chair with a fierce expression.
"Sure enough, it was her, I knew that it was she who killed Lin'er, it was her ......"
The cause of Chu Ronglin's death could not be found, Princess Chu told her so at the beginning, and then made a lot of noise to find a doctor, but she couldn't find the cause of Chu Ronglin's death.
The cause of Chu Ronglin's death was unknown, coupled with Chu Rongzhen's words, she had a guess.
"Third sister, what's wrong with you?"
Concubine Wan had tears on her face, and her eyes were full of cruelty and hatred, which shocked Luo Qi.
As if she couldn't hear Luo Qi's words, Concubine Wan went crazy, crying and laughing, so startled that Luo Qi kept retreating, and finally turned to leave......
walked to the door of the small courtyard of Concubine Wan, and walked to the corner, a man in black held his chest with his hands and leaned quietly against the wall.
He looked at her with a sneer and was silent.
Luo Qi looked at the figure in the distance and walked over quickly, "I've said everything I need to say, what about the antidote?" ”
Lian took out a glass bottle from her bosom and threw it over, and there were still five antidotes inside.
Luo Qi hurriedly caught it and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was intact.
Some time ago, there was news that Chu Rongzhen was unconscious in the Chu Palace, and she had the antidote at that time, and that pain made her remember her soul.
Not daring to resist anything, she didn't want to go through that pain again.
Holding the pill tightly, Luo Qi pursed his lips, unwilling and afraid.
Behind Lian, Chu Rongzhen's figure walked out, looking at her figure, Luo Qi's eyes quickly flashed with fear.
Bow your head, bow low and make small.
Chu Rongzhen smiled slightly, and took out a packet of medicinal powder from her arms, "You did a good job this time, in order to make up for the last time because of an accident, I didn't have time to give you the antidote, this is for you!" ”
"No...... Don't dare to ......" Luo Qi raised his head and couldn't help but eagerness when he looked at the paper bag in front of him.
She seemed to have guessed what it was, and she wanted to ......
"Take it, it's not a highly poisonous drug, it's just a simple drug, colorless and tasteless, and you can't find out the calendar!"
If you can't find out the history, it means that you can't find out the traces of her buying drugs, Luo Qi heard it, reached out and took it, showing a happy smile.
"Thank you...... Thank you ......"
Chu Rongzhen looked at her docile appearance with satisfaction and nodded, "I won't be a ruthless person, you do things for me, I will give what you should give." If I do one thing and do another behind my back, I will not give up......"
"No, it won't...... Don't dare ......"
"Well, that's for the best!" After speaking, Chu Rongzhen turned around and left.
It wasn't until her figure completely disappeared that Luo Qi breathed a sigh of relief, held the antidote and the paper bag tightly, looked left and right, and walked away quickly......
Lian disappeared into the dark, Shu'er jumped up and down by her side, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why did you give her medicine?" Obviously, you don't usually give me a game to play, but you give her ......"
Shu Er was full of dissatisfaction, she thought Chu Rongzhen's medicine was very magical, and she secretly took it out and accidentally got the highly toxic Gu poison, and it was poisoned by skin contact, which scared Chu Rongzhen to strictly prohibit it, and she was not allowed to confirm her Gu poison again.
If you find it once, you will not be allowed to touch the meat for three months.
was so strictly restrained that Shu'er couldn't bear her curiosity.
"I just hope that she can make a little trouble in Luofu, and it may be of great use in the future." Chu Rongzhen smiled slightly, and took Shu'er to the Moon Restaurant.
In the Moon Restaurant, there is an exclusive room for her.
Stretched out his hand and hugged the jade pendant in his hand to the palm counter, and walked directly to the second floor.
The shopkeeper who was directly dealing with the chores looked at the jade pendant in front of him, quietly put away the jade pendant, and continued to deal with his own affairs as if nothing had happened.
When going upstairs, Chu Rongzhen collided with a figure.
It was the other party who collided directly, no matter how fast she retreated, she was still knocked back a step.
didn't want to worry about it, and didn't want to make trouble, Chu Rongzhen lowered her head and was about to leave.
The man's words came, "Stop, hit this son and leave like this, what a big guts!" ”
Chu Rongzhen stopped, raised his head, and looked at the man in front of him, very displeased.
"Childe walked and bumped into him, Hugh blamed others!"
The robe is luxurious, and it seems that he is the son of a rich family or a powerful person.
It's just that she has never seen him, and she has no memory of this face in the snow banquet, which son is this?
"Yo, it's the first time I've heard a woman with such a big tone, where are you? Do you know who this son is? The man on the other side folded the fan, hooked her chin with the fan, looked at it carefully, and his eyes flashed*.
Lustful, arrogant......
Disgusting!
Chu Rongzhen pursed her lips and sneered, "Gongzi is not a powerful person, so naturally I haven't heard of it." But it's just a cloth, I understand! ”
She is dressed in white, giving people a cold and clean feeling, and her unsmiling appearance often arouses men's desire to conquer.
The man looked at her beautiful countenance, and his eyes lit up.
is a good young man, his eyes are black, his hall is gray, and his face is abnormally sickly white, and he looks like an overindulgent son.
"What a sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed person, he dared to quibble when he hit this son, come on, take it away!"
"Why?" Chu Rongzhen sneered.
"Just take it with your son!" The man raised his eyebrows, disdainful and sneering.
Seeing this, Shu'er reached out with one hand, held his folding fan, and rubbed it in front of him, and the folding fan turned into pieces......
"You ......"
"My young lady is the county lord of Zhenning, if she is guilty, she will be judged by Jingzhao Mansion Yin or His Majesty, which onion is the son?"
As soon as he heard Chu Rongzhen's identity, panic flashed in the other party's eyes, and when he subconsciously retreated, Shu'er quickly kicked his knee, and the man's foot slipped and rolled directly down the steps.
There was a thumping thumping sound, and many people frowned.
It hurts to listen to the sound.
"Haha......" Shu'er laughed loudly, looked at his appearance happily, and helped Chu Rongzhen turn around.
Chu Rongzhen glanced at the jade pendant that slipped out of the man's neck and squinted slightly.
After Chu Rongzhen and Shu'er left, the man got up and stared at Chu Rongzhen's back, revealing a grim smile.
"Go back!"
This was just a small episode, but Chu Rongzhen remembered him.
When he went to the box, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the man's back, "Who is he?" ”
The waiter bent down, "It's the son of the Lin family!" ”
"The Lin family? That Lin Chamber of Commerce? ”
"Yes!"
Chu Rongzhen nodded, narrowed her eyes, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Is she too lucky? Met so quickly?
Walking to her exclusive box, Yan Qi sat quietly in the room, looked at her walking in, smiled slightly, and showed a soft breath.
Chu Rongzhen was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "Big Brother Qi is in a good mood, what good happened?" ”
Yan Qi smiled lightly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and was silent.
Chu Rongzhen walked across from him, sat down, and quipped, "Is it because my sister has opened her mind?" ”
Yan Qi's eyes flashed softly, and he nodded, "Well, Qin'er told me today that she likes me too!" ”
"Congratulations to Brother Qi, I have a good relationship with my sister!"
"Thank you!"
In the past few days, his relationship with Chu Rongqin has changed like a fly, because he knows Chu Rongqin's thoughts, so he attacked very fiercely, and in less than a few days, he successfully made Chu Rongqin relent, admitting that he liked him and was willing to marry him.
Drinking fruit tea, Chu Rongzhen looked helplessly at Chang Chang smirked and sighed lightly.
Sure enough, the IQ of both men and women in love will decrease.
"What I've been asking you to check, how is it going?"
Yan Qi smirked, coughed lightly, and sat up straight, "It's more troublesome for you to investigate, but now that you have found out, you can't imagine that the person you want is in the capital!" ”
"Beijing?" Chu Rongzhen raised her eyebrows in surprise, which was really unexpected by her.
"Yes, she has become a beggar, but I sent people to look for her, and it took so much time to know that she was hiding in the capital, and she was brought by others, do you need me to avoid it?"
Chu Rongzhen shook his head, "No, it's not a big deal anyway, where are the people?" ”
Yan Qi nodded, stretched out his hand, pulled the bell rope in the room, and a waiter walked in.
"Bring someone here!"
The waiter stooped down, bowed respectfully, and then turned to leave.
"I don't understand, why are you investigating the matter of Princess Chu? Do you have a grudge against her? ”
