Chapter 357: Involved

Location: Lotus pond.

Time of the incident: Half an hour ago.

The deceased: A guest of the Horse Master.

Cause of death: A hole in the neck was poked by a golden hairpin.

Chonghua covered half of his face and frowned slightly at the watery people on the ground. She's a little too accurate. It's just a random stab, and it can actually stab that person in the neck?!

With some guilt in his heart, Chonghua looked at the man, and his heart was numb for a while.

Killed. The second time. This person clearly wanted to save her, but she was killed by mistake. Don't look away, Chonghua's eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Lin Qingsheng inspected the scene of the crime and checked the situation on the deceased. The focus of attention was naturally focused on the hairpin.

There is a hairpin, which means that it is done by a female dependent. Being able to stab the hairpin directly into the other party's neck is obviously done by an acquaintance. Otherwise, how can any man stand still in a daze, waiting for someone to poke himself to death with a hairpin.

But this hairpin ......

"Who was in the backyard at the time of the crime?" Lin Qingsheng asked routinely.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all look at Chonghua in unison.

Lin Qingsheng raised his eyebrows: "Crown princess? ”

Chonghua nodded: "I was in the backyard at the time. Because the hem of my skirt was spilled with tea, I went to the backyard to change my clothes. ”

Lin Qingsheng glanced at Chonghua coldly, and explained in such detail, if it was really her doing, she should be a little more nervous.

"Who did the princess see?" Lin Qingsheng asked.

Chonghua shook his head: "Originally, there was a little maid who led the way, but after walking not far away, the person disappeared." I don't go out much on weekdays, and I don't move around much among my relatives. Also unfamiliar with the backyard. Just get lost. ”

The attitude is sincere and the language is authentic. Lin Qingsheng was really a little confused about Chonghua's foundation for a while.

She really didn't do it? With such obvious evidence here, how can she get out?

Chonghua's expression was calm. Although she did it accidentally. But the golden hairpin wasn't hers. Besides, the clothes are also specially prepared, so there will be no flaws.

Even if you feel sorry, get through it. Lin Qingsheng can't be allowed to catch the handle.

Lin Qingsheng swept shallowly between Chonghua's eyebrows, and he couldn't stare at her deadly. The brocade guard over there picked up the golden hairpin.

"This hairpin, is it the crown princess's?" Lin Qingsheng asked.

Chonghua shook his head: "I didn't wear a hairpin when I came today." In addition to the rewards given by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, together with the rewards of the father, the queen and the queen mothers, they are all at home. The maid in charge of the keys is also there. It is possible to count. ”

One sentence blocked all the roads behind. Don't you suspect that the hairpin is mine? All right. You go to my house and check. All jewelry is numbered and guarded, and you are not afraid of you even if you have a list.

This texture of the hairpin. It's not just for everyone. That's a real golden hairpin. The people of this era are still simple. There is no zĂ i gold mixed with other metals to increase the weight. The style of the golden hairpin is also uncommon, and it seems that it should be rewarded by the palace.

Lin Qingsheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, could it be that it wasn't really her?

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." Someone sang and drank.

Everyone was stunned. The fan covered his face and looked at the gate of the courtyard. Sure enough, Luo Chen, dressed in a snow-white python robe, walked in.

Chonghua blinked. Usually it's black, royal blue, dark green, and I don't look at him in white, which is quite good-looking.

Luo Chen respectfully saluted the eldest princess Hua Guifei and Concubine Xian, and Lin Qingsheng walked directly towards Chonghua without a bird.

"I've waited so long and I haven't come out. Auntie is here like this? Luo Chen frowned and complained with a cold face.

Chonghua glanced at him, and he was too deep into the play, boy. whispered, "Something happened." ”

Only then did Luo Chen turn his face to look at the one lying on the ground, and glanced at Lin Qingsheng by the way.

"Can't you find out the brocade guard?"

Lin Qingsheng had a smile on the corner of his mouth. His eyes were cold: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Jin An, this matter involves the Crown Princess." I also hope that the prince will be accommodating. ”

Luo Chen frowned and looked down at Chonghua: "You killed someone?" ”

Chonghua was silent for a moment and shook his head: "No." ”

Nonsense, you can't say it at this juncture if you really kill someone. This is simply death left and right, admitting that she killed her, not only is there a crime of murder, but she may also have to bear the charge of having a private meeting with a strange man. If you don't admit it, the most you will be interrogated is, and the only one who knows the truth, Yuwen Yaoqin's eyes are already popping out at this time.

This is the pain of holding the secret but not being able to say it.

She could have shouted that Chonghua couldn't drag it out, but then she had to admit that she pushed Chonghua into the water. Anyone has done this kind of thing in private, but how can this thing be said on the surface.

If it is really investigated, people will know that she was poisoned because she hated the princess for taking away the attention of the prince of Tongjiang.

The problem is that it doesn't make sense. The current identity of the crown princess has never been to the capital before she got married, how did she hook up with the prince of Tongjiang?

Answer: The crown princess is actually the orphan of the Ling family, and it is because the prince of Tongjiang pit the Ling family to death that she is involved in such a bad fate.

Don't say that the eldest princess won't let her say it, even the virtuous concubine will gag her mouth. Secrets should be buried in memories forever, and this kind of thing that goes along the vine and touches the melon, and if you pull one of them, you will pull out a bunch of them. What kind of person is Lin Qingsheng, that is Jinyiwei, who is lying on the pillow of the emperor's relatives every day waiting for the person who bites them to death, how can this kind of thing let him know.

Chonghua looked at Yuwen Yaoqin's almost distorted face, and slowly turned his face away from her.

Yuwen Yaoqin clenched her fists tightly, and her nails pierced into her palms without even knowing it. She couldn't speak, she couldn't say a word. Zhou Wenyuan is not in Beijing now, if he knows that what she did in secret is known, especially by Lin Qingsheng, it is not certain that Zhou Wenyuan will do anything.

Luo Chen can be regarded as the only one who has no baggage in his heart, and his face is arrogant: "What if you kill it?" ”

Chonghua's eyes drifted away, now is not the time to show off his imperial power, hey!

Lin Qingsheng's facial muscles twitched, and sometimes he really couldn't figure out whether the prince had brains or no brains. The things I usually do do are not leaky, and the outside is not oily and salty. I thought he was a shrewd person, but sometimes I can't wait for others to think he was like a gentleman. Death to death.

The onlookers couldn't help but twitch their cheeks, listening to what the prince said. That is, the prince, no one thinks something is wrong when he says this.

The eldest princess narrowed her eyes slightly: "Chen'er's words are inappropriate, the prince should be guilty of the same crime as the common people when he breaks the law." How can such appeasement be worthy of the emperor's benevolence. ”

Luo Chen glanced at the eldest princess coldly: "What does the eldest aunt mean is planning to investigate deeply?" ”

The eldest princess lowered her eyebrows and stroked the Buddha beads on her wrist: "You must always give an explanation to the dead." ”

Chonghua's heart was stunned, this feeling ...... What's weird?

The eldest princess's reaction is indeed a little strange. It is said that in addition to bad luck, the death of an irrelevant person in his own family should be more about trying to solve this matter. Or simply let people pull out to study and quickly wipe the floor.

But the eldest princess did not show any disgust for the deceased comrade, but instead bit the murderer.

Come to think of it, it is indeed strange that this eldest princess, who can reach the prince with her flamboyant and domineering hands, can say such bluffing words as the prince breaking the law and committing the same crime as the common people.

Chonghua recalled the face of the man he saw in his panic when he had just fallen into the water. An uncontrollable thought crept into her head.

"This hairpin seems to belong to the princess of the king of Tongjiang." The crowd didn't know who said weakly.

Yuwen Yaoqin exploded directly as if she had been poked by a needle: "Presumptuous! ”

Lin Qingsheng glanced at her lightly. This reaction, slightly bigger, right?

It is not easy to find that the ladies have more hair ornaments or less, but today Yuwen Yaoqin is wearing this hairpin called the Mandarin Duck Hairpin, which was rewarded by the queen at the wedding, in pairs.

Yuwen Yaoqin glared at Chonghua deadly: "It's her, it's her who ripped off my hairpin." ”

Before Chonghua could react, Luo Chen leaned sideways in front of Chonghua: "My cousin's words are interesting, although this palace is not as rich as Cousin Wen, but the hairpin can still afford it." Why does the concubine of this palace pull your hairpin? ”

Because the moment I pushed her into the water, she ripped her off. Yuwen Yaoqin gritted her teeth tightly: "The crown princess doesn't like me." ”

Luo Chen smiled coldly: "My cousin's words don't make sense, no matter how you look at it, it's all because you don't like the concubine in this palace." ”

One glared angrily, the other bowed his head and was silent, no matter how he looked at it, he was looking at the one who was looking for fault.

The eldest princess's eyebrows were locked, and she had originally arranged for people to be by the lotus pond in case of emergency. If Chonghua was touched by someone, even if he was not criticized, it would be enough for Luo Chen to be disgusting. But he never thought that the man had been stabbed to death. This can also be relied on on Chonghua's head. Who would have thought that this hairpin would be on his daughter's head.

I am really not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like relatives and friends. For the first time, the eldest princess felt physically and mentally haggard.

Lin Qingsheng smiled slightly: "Please describe in detail how the princess of Tongjiang pulled the hairpin on your head." ”

Yuwen Yaoqin clenched her fists tightly, only feeling that all the people in this world were standing by and watching the excitement. They all wanted to see how she died, why, why!

"The hairpin was indeed ripped off by me." Chonghua, who had been standing behind Luo Chen, whispered.

Everyone looked at Chonghua in unison. Today is a turning point. That's enough information for the year ahead.

Luo Chen turned sideways slightly and exposed Chonghua, only to see Chonghua's eyes red and pear blossoms pinching the handkerchief with rain.

"The princess of the king of Tongjiang...... Said that the son of the world is devoted to me. ”

All:...... Will he be killed by the prince? (To be continued) R655
