381 Aftermath
On April 20 of the 27th year of Hongyuan, even after decades, this day is still deeply engraved in the memory of the people of Beijing, and the memory will never fade.
Dead!
On the day of the final election, in the eyes of all the palace concubines and noblewomen, the noble girl from the Weiguo Mansion died of strange and inexplicable bleeding.
What's even more weird and terrifying for the people of the capital is that when the noble girl agreed to the "gift" of the Queen Mother and was willing to enter the Qin Palace, she suddenly died violently.
Since the news of King Qin's wife was safely married to Princess Qin and had an heir, this rumor has been self-defeating and ended without a problem.
And because in the past three years, the Qin Palace's palace has been calm, whether it is the princess of Qin or the little prince, they are all healthy, disease-free, and the people of Kyoto take it for granted that the disease of the king of Qin earlier should be "cured without medicine", or rather, it was disappeared by the princess of Qin.
However, what about the King of Qin who said that he was good is now one of the best beloveds in the minds of the nobles of Great Wei?
Why is it that the advantages of the good man have not yet been revealed, but his ability to overcome people has become more and more profound?!!
The earlier "fiancΓ©es" were more or less able to resist for a day or half a day after the news about their marriage spread, and then died violently, why did this noble girl suddenly die on the spot?
What happened in Chuxiu Palace, even if several palace concubines came back to their senses, they immediately gave an order to "silence", but in the end, the news still spread rapidly from the palace to the capital with the momentum of a prairie fire, and it was only a short hour of effort, and everyone in the streets and alleys of the capital knew about it.
Then the frightened and curious women couldn't help but gossip with their thoughts: "This is the sixth." If you want me to say...... The girl in the Guogong Mansion can't be poisoned, right? β
"How can it be so coincidental? Didn't you listen to the father-in-law in the palace? The girl opened her mouth and said that she was willing to enter the Qin Palace, and suddenly she bled and fell to the ground. Oh, my God, isn't this being caught by King Qin? β
"Don't talk nonsense, didn't King Qin stop his wife a long time ago? Now that Princess Qin is fine, where is she going to be a person again? β
"You can't say that. It's not Qin Wangke's, so what else do you say? Hey, let me say oh. It was also the girl's bad luck. There are many noble sons in Beijing, why does she have to fall in love with King Qin? King Qin's Mansion is good, but who let her not have the blessing of Princess Qin. Can't you deter the evil qi on King Qin's body? No, I thought that I shouldn't have started, and I was immediately retributed by the world! β
"Alas, it would have to be said that Qin Wangke killed her. That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it? After saying that, the person is gone, why I listen to it in my heart. Does it always feel like a haunt? β
"But no, my heart trembled when I heard it, I think this thing is very ghostly, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight......"
All of Kyoto is in the streets. The bookstore teahouse, the restaurant and the fireworks, or the mansions of the nobles of Kyoto who have been carefully watching the draft in the palace. No matter what everyone was doing before, now they are all in the mood and beaten again. After gathering three or five people, they talked impassionedly about the death of the sixth woman by King Qin.
There are even those who originally had the idea in their hearts to send their girls to the noble family of the Qin Wangfu, but now the inner house is a mess.
has sent her daughter to the palace and found a good way to prepare for the queen mother to enter the palace of the king of Qin, the mother of those show girls, hearing this bad news, even looked up to the sky and cried "My poor son", after that, she rolled her eyes, and fainted as if she was greatly stimulated.
Such a situation was staged in countless mansions in Kyoto, and for a time, there were countless fainting people, and every family took the name of the house to go to the Tai Hospital to ask the Tai Doctor to see a doctor, and the Tai Hospital instantly became the most lively place in the entire capital except for Chuxiu Palace.
Kyoto is now in full commotion, like a pebble thrown on the surface of a calm lake, which immediately caused an uproar.
And just when the enthusiasm of the people in Kyoto was getting higher and higher, they all began to change from "the noble lady of the Guogong Mansion was killed by the King of Qin", and then said, "Wait to see a good show, there must be more than one death, not that there were many little girls who wanted to enter the Qin Palace, oh, I see, at least two more will die", the old ladies and the ladies in charge of the mansions of the lords also fainted again after finally waking up.
Rumors are running around in the capital, and at this time, the palace gate is even more unpeaceful.
Although it is unlikely that all the noble ladies are murderers, and they have no motive and time to kill, who let them witness the tragic death of the noble lady of the Weiguo Mansion on the spot?
Therefore, even if each of these noble ladies has a good mother's family, a reliable husband's family, and they are usually at the top of the pyramid in the capital, after the incident caused Emperor Hongyuan to order a thorough investigation, they had to be regarded as "witnesses" and "objects of suspicion", and were temporarily imprisoned in the Chuxiu Palace by the Imperial Forest Army.
Because of this, everyone had to wait for the imperial doctor, the puppet, and the most famous case-solving master in the entire Great Wei Kingdom to come over to collect evidence before being released from the palace.
At this time, the time has come to the end of the hour, nearly three o'clock in the afternoon, all the noble ladies entered the palace early in the morning, and even had lunch in the middle, and they all witnessed such a fearful "murder" incident, hunger and cold, panic, and so out of the palace, everyone's legs are soft, and the weakness can only rely on the full support of the maids around them to lift their feet.
Finally arrived at the gate of the palace, the noblewomen who usually talked and laughed, and who was better at talking than anyone else, didn't care about greetings, but they were all busy getting into their own carriages, and asked the coachman to hurry back to the house.
Chi Linglong got into the carriage with the help of June and July, and as soon as she sat on the couch of the carriage, she fell crookedly.
She was a little frightened, although she was overly hungry, and she didn't feel hungry at all now, but the horror of witnessing the tragic death of the noble daughter of the Weiguo Mansion earlier, and the fear of seeing her cousin in Chuxiu Palace, all oppressed her, making her body tremble and have no energy until now.
Therefore, when July took out warm snacks and goat's milk from the box on the wall of the car and asked her to cushion the mat first, Chi Linglong shook her head laboriously and refused, lying on the couch unwilling to move.
The carriage entered the Qin Wang's Mansion smoothly, and Chi Linglong had fallen asleep unconsciously at this time.
When she woke up from the nightmare, it was already the middle of the night, and the man beside her sensed her abnormality, immediately woke up from her sleep, patted her on the back, and asked her in a hoarse voice, "Awake?" β
Chi Linglong let out a "hmm" and drilled into the man's blazing embrace, "What time is it now?" β
"Just after the third watch." Qin Chengsi replied: "I haven't eaten for a day, and I won't wake up when I call you in the middle, but you're hungry?" β
Chi Linglong let out a sullen "hmm", her feelings were still a little low, but she was indeed awakened by hunger.
It's all three watches, around the early hours of the night, she got up early at six o'clock for breakfast, and lasted for such a day, no wonder she is so hungry now.
Qin Chengsi listened to her answer, and couldn't help but touch her stomach funny, and at this moment, Chi Linglong's stomach "growled", which showed that she was really hungry.
Chi Linglong was so ashamed that she drilled her little head into Qin Chengsi's arms, but Qin Chengsi couldn't help laughing heartily, and even his chest was sullenly agitated.
The sound of Biyue's light footsteps came from the outer room, and Chi Linglong knew that the girl must have been awakened by them, so she also pushed Qin Chengsi beside her, "You let go of your hand, let me get up, I'll go eat something." β
"Well, I'll be with you."
Qin Chengsi lifted the curtain, took her coat and put it on her body, and without waiting for her to put on her shoes, he wrapped her in a ball and hugged her and walked out.
Biyue and July turned on all the lights in the morning, and hurriedly saluted at this time.
Biyue said: "The princess is hungry? The prince asked the slave maid to cook bird's nest and stew chicken soup for you earlier, and now it is still warm on the fire, can the princess use some? β
Chi Linglong nodded, rubbed her sleepy eyes and instructed Biyue, "Just hold a bowl of bird's nest porridge and get two simple side dishes." β
Thinking of Qin Chengsi beside him, he also pulled his collar, raised his head and asked him, "Do you want to eat something too?" β
"No, you can use it yourself."
Chi Linglong didn't listen to him, although he knew that this person didn't have the habit of using supper, but since he touched it this time, it didn't hurt to use some.
Then he said to Biyue again, "Use chicken soup to cook some more wontons and noodle soup, just get a little more, it's hard to eat too much at night." β
Biyue and Qiyue both went down, Qin Chengsi took the warm and damp handkerchief that Fang had just received from Qiyue, and held Chi Linglong's slender and white skin, and under the light, it seemed to exude a jade-like glowing finger, and wiped it carefully for her.
Chi Linglong remained motionless, letting the man take care of her, looking up at Qin Chenghe's incredible side face with soft lines and gentle contours, and looking at his deep and dark eyes, she didn't have time to hide the joy and affection in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in annoyance, lying in his arms.
Qin Chengsi was in a very happy mood, laughed sullenly, and asked her, "Why are you sighing?" β
"That girl in the Weiguo Mansion is my cousin's hand." Chi Linglong said this quietly.
originally thought that Qin Chengsi would be surprised, but he didn't expect that the person just let out a faint "um" indifferently, as if he was not interested in this news, and seemed to have known that this was Sun Liuli's handiwork, and it had also been verified, so he was not surprised.
"Did you already know?"
Qin Chengsi let out another "um" and said casually: "It's not early." The dark guard found out that Sun Liuli was also in Chuxiu Palace at the time of the incident, and he just guessed it. β
"Oh......" Chi Linglong let out an "oh" for a long time, and her tone contained feelings that she couldn't tell.
"Are you sorry that woman died? Still is...... Don't like Sun Liuli to kill innocents so indiscriminately? β
"How is that possible!" (To be continued)
