Chapter 215 Zhaoqing Palace Murder Case
"Ah," Leng Qinlan seemed to be taken aback, and suddenly came back to her senses, "Who wants to die?"
She said it, but she would never admit it
"You just said that someone is going to die," Shangguan Pingyun wanted to make things difficult for Leng Qinlan, and his mind was much stronger than that of the president of the Martial Alliance
"I didn't say anything," Leng Qinlan's eyes were full of doubt, as if she couldn't remember what she had said
"Miss, you just said that someone died," Ziling pulled Leng Qinlan with concern, "Miss must have been frightened, and Miss's body was not very good just now."
"If it's a good person, it's dead," Leng Qinlan stroked her heart with palpitations
Now there are two corpses in front of her, a man and a woman, especially the man's palm broke his skull, and he died a miserable death
"Can the emperor let the young lady go to rest," Ziling pleaded again
"She's not feeling well," Shangguan Pingyun didn't believe it
Although he also doubted his ears, the president of the Martial Arts Alliance could also mishear what the people around him heard
"Yes, Lord Shangguan, if it weren't for the emperor's order, Miss Xuan was still waiting for Mu Gongzi in the pavilion, but Mu Gongzi and Miss Shangguan would testify," Ziling said
"Qingqing" Shangguan Pingyun was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect to pull out his daughter
"Yes," Ziling confirmed
This accident made Shangguan Pingyun not know what to say again
The emperor was not interested in paying attention to their words, ordered the two corpses to be dragged down, and after a few more explanations, he planned to return to the gilded corridor
Halfway through, Leng Qinlan's words came true
The flustered and hurried footsteps made people know from a distance that something had happened again
"The emperor, the emperor's dumb slave died"
This time, it was not a neat palace guard who came to report the news, but an old woman, whose legs and feet were not as agile as those of young people, but she still hurried towards the imperial garden, and she didn't know how many times she fell down along the way, just to pass the message in person
"Mama Sun, you said that the dumb slave uncle is dead," Luo Chenfeng asked first despite the emperor's presence
Of all the people, he is the only one who is most qualified to be so uncalm
He also heard what Leng Qinlan said in the Imperial Tablet Garden, although he was fooled by Ziling's cooperation, but he was sure that Shangguan Pingyun heard it correctly, Leng Qinlan did say that someone was going to die, full of five words
He was silently waiting for Leng Qinlan's words to come true, but he didn't expect that the one who died would be a dumb slave
The dumb slave was not dumb in the first place, but an old man who stayed at the residence of his father, the fourth highness, and the fourth highness woke up one night after the absence, and found that his tongue was completely rotten and could no longer speak
The dumb slave couldn't write, and the whole person was confused, and no one knew what he had encountered, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that he had a strange disease, and Fang Daozhì's tongue festered
But a little minion doesn't do it
Later, the dumb slave has been staying in the garden of the fourth highness, and it stands to reason that only Mama Sun is accompanied by him
Since Luo Chenfeng had the Chu Palace, he hadn't been to that garden for a long time
That garden is also the place where he lived after following the Fourth Highness back to the palace, as long as he stepped in, he would unconsciously recall, the more he thought about it, the deeper he wanted to search for his lost memories
The process of meditation was painful, so gradually he began to avoid it, and one of the ways to avoid it was not to touch it, and rarely set foot in that place again
"Yes, Your Royal Highness, the dumb slave died, and died a miserable death," Mama Sun's voice was trembling all the time, and the fright was stronger than the grief
A long time ago, the emperor had explained that he had to directly report to the emperor about the residence of the four highnesses, even if a piece of brick and tile was broken due to dilapidation, he had to tell the emperor, and the emperor would personally send someone to repair it
This special order has always been regarded as the emperor's remembrance of the late Fourth Highness
And at this time today, he came directly to the emperor for the death of an old slave
"Move Zhaoqing Palace" The emperor immediately ordered
Zhaoqing Palace is the name of the palace where the Four Highnesses lived
The Fourth Highness has never been crowned a king, nor has he ever had a mansion outside the palace, and has been replaced by the Four Highnesses, and the only residence after the Four Highnesses were taken back to Lin'an City from the people was Zhaoqing Palace
Leng Qinlan with Ziling red sleeves has been following the emperor's team at the end
The emperor wants to take someone to move to Zhaoqing Palace, and she should not be included among these people, but she can see the dead body "with her own eyes", which means that she must have gone too
Sure enough, Leng Qinlan paused, and the eunuch on duty behind him urged, "Hurry up, haven't you heard the emperor's will?"
The Emperor's decree did not specifically name who it was, and it was aimed at everyone present
Leng Qinlan no longer hesitated, followed the pace of everyone, and rushed to Zhaoqing Palace to join in the fun
"Man is beaten to death by a short sharp weapon into the heavenly spirit cover"
As the president of the Martial Arts Alliance, he also has some vision
Seeing the body of the dumb slave, he roughly examined it and confirmed
Due to the sharp weapon penetrating deep into the brain, ** and blood burst out a lot, and the dumb slave was full of faces, looking like a bloody man
"At this time, the dumb slave will lean on this rattan chair and squint for a while," Grandma Sun wiped away her tears
But today, she planned to put a thin quilt on the dumb slave as usual, but saw that the dumb slave died
"The body is still warm, and it has not been long since he died, at most half an hour," said the president of the Martial Alliance
"What kind of short weapon was killed?" asked the old emperor
The leader of the Martial Alliance, Yunli, sucked out a small short arrow from the top of the dumb slave's head
It is said that it is an arrow, and it is like a thick needle, and it is said to be a needle, and it has a bunch of arrow feathers mixed in the hair of the dumb slave
"This is ......," the old emperor pinched the murder weapon sent by the chairman of the Martial Alliance, and his eyes shrank suddenly
"This is the palm arrow that my father makes good use of," Luo Chenfeng blurted out
When His Royal Highness was living among the people, he had a whim, and made a small bow and arrow that was only the size of a palm, and the bow and arrow were matched with this kind of short arrow
Although this kind of bow and arrow is small, it has good shooting power and is easy to carry, so His Royal Highness will always carry it as a defensive weapon when he goes out on the expedition
Just because the old emperor also recognized it, his expression changed so much
"Go and find out who else is suspicious of the people who participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet today," the old emperor ordered again
The Hundred Flowers Banquet has been held for so many years, and there has never been such a disaster as today
The people who participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet were carefully recorded, not to mention that the qualifications were rare, even if they entered the palace, they would be examined in detail, and it was really not easy to get in
But the old emperor believed that this was done by outsiders, because Luo Chenfeng mentioned that the stack of evidence about the Imperial Tablet Garden was that there was a mysterious person for him
In other words, the person who had led him to Panlong Mountain had been secretly watching his people or his comrades had already infiltrated the palace, and it was most likely among the people who participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet
"Yes"
This time, it was not the head of the guards, but the president of the Martial Alliance, who personally received the order, and everyone knew that the emperor's concern for the four highnesses was a sign of obedience to the holy will
After the decree was given, the old emperor also hurried back to the imperial garden
Luo Chenfeng stood beside the dumb slave and did not move
Leng Qinlan was at the end of the line, and she had to wait for the person in front of her to leave before she could move, which gave her more opportunities to observe
Behind the rattan chair where the dumb slave was lying, there were large traces of water on the wall that blocked the window, which attracted Leng Qinlan's attention
The trail of water was quickly dried up in the sun's rays, and if she hadn't seen it in time, it would have easily been annihilated
At this time, on a clear day, there was no rain at all, and there was no one to do, so I had nothing to do, so I smeared a piece of water on the wall
Retracting his gaze, Leng Qinlan followed the team in front of him and left Zhaoqing Palace
From the time they saw Luo Chenfeng in the Imperial Monument Garden, they didn't say a word, they didn't make eye contact, and they didn't feel indifferent, as if they had never met, he was His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and she was the widow of a "lowly" Guogong
"Qinlan, are you okay?" As soon as he saw Leng Qinlan, Leng Zhuoheng greeted him with concern and asked
Because the gilded corridor was strictly guarded after the accident of the imperial monument, no one was allowed to go out again, he was trapped here, he was not clear about the things outside, and he couldn't wait to go back, Leng Qinlan was really anxious
"Big brother, I'm fine, it's just that the king of Chu caught the palace empress who lied to me and summoned me to interrogate," Leng Qinlan said
"Miss Leng, it's a pity that I didn't find the imperial doctor for you, there is no will, the imperial doctor didn't dare to run to the emperor without permission to see you, and I learned that you were announced by the emperor and slipped away by yourself," and then followed Mu Nandao, who returned, apologized to Leng Qinlan from the other position
"Xie Mu Gongzi has a small problem, Qin Lan is no longer in the way," Leng Qin Lan politely thanked Mu Nandao
"You're sick," Leng Zhuoheng looked at Leng Qinlan carefully with concern
"Big brother, don't worry, I'm fine now, it's just a small problem that I already had in Baiyun Temple before, don't worry about it," Leng Qinlan comforted
Leng Zhuoheng saw that Leng Qinlan's expression was indeed the same now, so he didn't ask any more
After all, this is at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and the emperor still has important matters to investigate, so it is inconvenient to say more in private
"After returning to the emperor, after a thorough investigation, the people who left the gilded corridor and did not return in time were not only His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Mu Gongzi, Miss Shangguan and Miss Leng, but also the personal maid of the household Liu Da's family, Miss Liu, and left with his hind feet," He Gonggong reported after counting
The sound fell, and everyone looked at Miss Liu in unison
"The slave maid of the courtier is in a hurry," Miss Liu quickly got up and explained
As a master, this is also a time to take responsibility
The slave standing behind Miss Liu bowed her head dutifully
"The toilet has been occupied by Leng Qinlan, and I don't see anyone going."
Unfortunately, this Miss Liu is one of the few people who are unwilling to submit to Shangguan Qingqing's forces, and as soon as the words came out, Shangguan Qingqing unceremoniously counterattacked
"If you don't believe it, ask Mu Gongzi and Leng Qinlan," Shangguan Qingqing did not forget to pull out one witness after another
"Miss Leng was later announced by the emperor to go to the maidservant, and she went after Miss Leng left," the maidservant quickly explained carefully
"The emperor, this slave and maid, has been with the little girl since she was a child, and the lower officials can guarantee her innocence and will never cause trouble," Lord Liu also got up and swore a promise
