Chapter 287: Shrine Maiden
"Dead?" Yuan Yinglan and Yuan Yingjia exclaimed together.
Yuan Yinglan's heart even mentioned his throat.
How could he suddenly die?!
The two of them hurriedly ran to the courtyard where Princess Lu Yue'er of Qi came out, rushed to the door, and the first thing they saw was Princess Lu Yue'er of Qi lying on the ground with her body twisted.
The look of horror on her face was frozen by death, and she looked even more terrifying.
"What's going on?! How the hell did you die?! Yuan Yingjia roared sharply, and his eyes swept over to the two mothers-in-law kneeling in the room.
Yuan Yinglan pursed her lips, walked over quickly, stretched out her hand and tried it in front of Lu Yue'er's nose, and found that there was really no breath at all.
She fell to her knees in despair, covered her face with her hands, and began to cry with a whimper.
Yuan Yingjia hurriedly stepped forward, hugged her by the shoulders, and comforted her in a low voice: "Sister, don't cry, our top priority is to find the murderer of the mother concubine as soon as possible!" ”
The two kneeling mothers-in-law glanced at each other.
The mother-in-law kneeling on Lu Yue'er's left raised her head and said, "Back to the words of the county king and the county lord." Today, Princess Qi has been playing villains in the corner like usual. As a result, Princess Yuan suddenly came in with someone, saying that she was at the behest of the queen mother, to see how our princess was, and to take her into the palace to serve the queen mother. But our princess is like this, everyone knows that she has to be taken care of by others, how can she serve the sick? ”
The mother-in-law who was kneeling on Lu Yue'er's right continued: "Exactly." But we couldn't stop it, and Princess Yuan still brought her subordinates in. She saw the villain beaten by Princess Qi at a glance. At that time, she was angry and ordered her mother-in-law to beat our princess and take away the yellow mounted paper. After Princess Yuan and they left. We dared to step forward, and it turned out that our princess was already like this. We didn't dare to touch the princess, so we were just busy going to report to the county king and the county lord, and ask the two to preside over the overall situation. ”
"So, it was Princess Yuan's descendants who beat the mother to death?" Yuan Yingjia's eyes were full of anger, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "Someone!" Follow me to the Yuanwang Mansion. Find Princess Yuan and ask for a question! ”
"Brother! You can't go! Yuan Yinglan grabbed Yuan Yingjia at once, "As the saying goes, catch a thief and take the stolen goods, and catch a traitor and take a double." They're all gone, how can they admit that they did it?! ”
"So what to do? We weren't at home at the time, otherwise how could they rush to the mother's place! Yuan Yingjia clenched his fist and slammed the wall hard.
Yuan Yinglan hurriedly pulled Yuan Yingjia's hand that was beating the wall. Gave him a gentle blow. Said: "Brother carefully hands hurt. ”
The back of Yuan Yingjia's hand was already smashing blood.
"Could it be that the mother died in vain?!" Yuan Yingjia held Yuan Yinglan's hand with his backhand, shook his head and said, "My hand doesn't hurt." ”
Yuan Yinglan let go of his hand, turned his gaze to Lu Yue'er, who was lying on the ground, and said in a quiet voice: "First go to find a husband to conduct an autopsy, and then report to the Zongren Mansion, as well as the imperial grandfather and grandmother." Let's report all the causes and consequences, and see how the imperial grandfather and grandmother will make decisions for us! ”
There was a hint of anger in her eyes, as if she was tired of everything. It's like a desperate gamble to achieve the purpose and desire that she has buried deep in her heart.
"Okay." Yuan Yingjia glanced at Yuan Yinglan deeply. "One more thing, I personally went to Dali Temple to beat the drum and voice the grievances! We can't let my mother die in vain! ”
Yuan Yinglan nodded, exchanged a look with Yuan Yingjia, and already understood what each other was thinking.
They are twins, and they have a lot more feelings in their hearts than the average brother and sister.
……
With Yuan Yingjia wearing linen and wearing filial piety to beat the drum in front of Dali Temple, and the servants of Dali Temple came to give Lu Yue'er an autopsy, proving that she was "frightened" and died, Princess Yuan bullied people and scared Princess Qi to death, and the news spread in the capital.
Ying Sleeve heard this from Shen Yule, who came in a hurry, and was so angry that she couldn't wait to go to the palace to find the emperor's grandfather theory, and even wanted to confront Yuan Yinglan and Yuan Yingjia face to face to see how her mother could "scare" Princess Lu Yue'er of Qi alive!
"This matter is obviously very strange, why did I convict my mother!" Ying sleeves were furious, and immediately thought of Zhao Mengxu, the leader of the celebration class who hooked up with Princess Qi Lu Yue'er. She subconsciously felt that this Zhao Mengxu should be related to the sudden death of Princess Qi.
"Cousin, you go to accompany my mother, I'll go out and find someone." Yingsleeves went back to the room and changed into an ordinary green cloth shirt, wore a curtain to cover his face, took a very ordinary car on the street, and went to the boundary of the Beicheng Qingxi class to find Zhao Mengxu.
But as soon as the car she was in arrived in Beichengfang District, she found that it was full of people, so crowded that the car couldn't pass at all.
Yingsleeve had no choice but to get out of the car and squeeze through step by step.
At the door of the Qingxi class, she actually saw that there were countless yacha running in and out, and a long rope was pulled at the door, and no one was allowed to enter and leave at will.
"What's going on?" Yingsleeve hurriedly pulled a chubby aunt and asked.
The aunt is a neighbor here, and when someone asked her, she said very enthusiastically, "You don't know yet, do you?" A murder has just been discovered here. More than 60 lives in the Qingxi class were poisoned! ”
"What?!" Yingsleeve exclaimed, almost unable to stand still.
How could it be that when Princess Qi Lu Yue'er had just died, all the people in this celebration class died?!
"Just now someone came to the celebration class to look for them, they originally took over the church meeting of a family in Dongcheng today, but they waited for them not to come, so they sent someone to look for them, but as soon as the person came in, he was so frightened that he ran out crying, saying that the people inside were all dead, and the death was very weird!"
"What's the weird way?" Yingsleeve's eyebrows were raised even higher, if it weren't for the curtain in the way, the aunt would have been surprised to see it.
"Listen to my mouth, oh, my mouth is the henchman of the Fang Zheng here, and he said, ah, this person in the celebration class is terrible to die. It seems that they died together at the same time. And they're all doing something else. ”
“…… I still don't get it. ”
"Ah, he said. When I went in, I saw someone pulling their legs in the courtyard, and someone raised their heads. It seems to be hanging their throats, there are a few people sitting and eating breakfast in the hall, someone is burning a fire in the kitchen, someone is chopping vegetables, someone is changing costumes in the theater, someone is putting on makeup, and there are people. Going to the latrine...... But it's such a strange look, everyone's face is blue, and they are already dead. Someone else pushes. And they fell......" said the aunt, shaking her head incessantly, "I have lived to be over forty years old, and I have never heard of such a strange death. ”
Yingsleeve's heart is also moved.
If it was really poisoned. She really didn't know. What kind of poison can be used in heaven and earth to ensure that these people die at the same time, and when they die, they can still keep their movements unchanged before death......
What the hell is going on?
Maybe it's true that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world......
Ying Sleeve thought of Master at this moment.
Can he do all of this with his ability?
But she quickly dismissed the idea again.
Because Master would never do such a thing.
Although he cares about himself very much, Yingsleeve can feel that the master is in his bones. He is a person who is indifferent and isolated from the world.
And he can't get along with the people in these troupes, how can he do such a dirty thing?
Who could that be?
Ying Sleeve quickly thought of the person who planted the Heart Erosion Gu on Murong Changqing's chest at the beginning.
This way of dying. It should only be able to be made by those who know the evil art of southern Xinjiang such as Gu art, right?
Yingsleeve's heart tightened suddenly.
That kind of heart-eroding Gu person, is he still in the capital? Is it still with her?
She looked around around in some panic, and suddenly noticed that the lightsaber bracelet on her wrist emitted a burst of heat, scorching the skin on her wrist.
It's a lightsaber warning, and there's evil around it.
Yingsleeve snorted, clutched his wrist against the wall, and gasped for air.
"Girl, what's wrong with you? Aren't you scared? The chubby aunt was startled, "Go back quickly, what's so nice about this kind of excitement?" ”
Yingsleeve nodded in a complicated mood, turned around and left the Beichengfang District, returned to his car, and left.
Yuan Yinglan also came, she was also sitting in an inconspicuous car, looking at the door of the celebration class from the curtain of the car.
After a long time, she said to the driver of the car: "Let's go, it's too crowded here, let's go back." ”
The driver responded and sent her back to Dongchengfang.
Yuan Yinglan changed his vehicle from Dongchengfang District before returning to Qi Wangfu in Xichengfang District.
At this time, the palace of the king of Qi had hung white cloth and white lanterns, set up a filial piety shed, invited drummers to blow and beat, fifty monks, fifty Taoist priests and fifty nuns, to recite the Sutra of the Past to Princess Qi.
Emperor Yuanhong and Empress Qi Xueyun in the palace were surprised when they learned the cause of Princess Qi's death.
Empress Qi Xueyun's tears flowed out at once, and she ran to Emperor Yuan Hong and cried: "Although the daughter-in-law of the concubine is not from a high background, she has no merit and hard work. She left Qi'er with blood, but she died so inexplicably, and the concubine was unwilling. Please let Your Majesty call the shots for the concubines, for Qi'er, and for Jia'er and Lan'er! ”
Emperor Yuan Hong's heart was also very uncomfortable, he was silent for a while, and then said: "This matter, I have asked Dali Temple to investigate thoroughly to see how Princess Qi died." You can rest assured, Dali Temple will definitely give you justice. ”
However, the judgment of Dali Temple is about evidence.
Lu Yue'er's death, if you talk about evidence, except for the two mothers-in-law around her who testified against Princess Yuan's mother-in-law, there is no other evidence, even the scars on the corpse that claim to have been beaten are not obvious, and there are no secret injuries, and in the end the case can only be closed with "scared death".
And the conclusion of "scared to death" is completely nonsense that cannot be found to be the cause of death.
The Yuan Wangfu only sent a steward to understand this matter.
Because there is no real evidence of Princess Qi's death, how can we determine who the murderer is?
Princess Yuan's mother-in-law naturally can't be locked.
Queen Qi Xueyun's crying stopped for a moment, and then she cried again: "We all know how she died, but we can't hold the murderer responsible." In the final analysis, it's still our mother and son who are suffering! ”
Emperor Yuan Hong didn't make a sound, let her cry alone, and buried herself in reviewing the chapters.
Empress Qi Xueyun was also very unhappy when she saw that Emperor Yuanhong made it clear that she wanted to protect Shen Yongjie, but she had nothing to do for a while, so she ordered someone to prepare Luan, and she wanted to go to the Qi Palace's mansion to mourn in person.
When she went, it happened that the people of the Lu family also came, crying and shouting in the palace of King Qi.
Princess Qi Lu Yue'er is their only pillar.
Lu Yue'er died, and the pillar of their Lu family fell.
Yuan Yingjia and Yuan Yinglan were not close to them, and they didn't dare to pull these two children to support them.
Seeing that the queen mother was coming, the people of the Lu family cried even more.
Queen Qi Xueyun put a stick of incense on the spirit of Princess Qi Lu Yue'er, and choked up: "Yue'er, the queen mother is incompetent and has not protected you." If you know who harmed you, you will be wronged and revenged. As he spoke, he sat on the chair in front of the spirit and wept again.
When the people of the Lu family saw the queen mother say this, they immediately became confident.
After Queen Qi Xueyun left, the people of the Lu family said that they would go to the Yuan Wangfu to make a big fuss.
According to their habits, their family is dead, that is reasonable, as usual, they have to go to the murderer's house to smash and rob before they can count!
Yuan Yingjia and Yuan Yinglan happened to send Queen Qi Xueyun back to the palace, not in the Qi Palace.
Therefore, the head of the Lu family and Mrs. Lu carried Lu Yue'er's coffin and went to the Yuanwang Mansion in Dongchengfang District to make trouble.
Ying Sleeve and Shen Yongjie were also discussing the cause of Lu Yue'er's death at home, and both of them knew that someone was making trouble behind their backs and blaming Yuan Wangfu.
Fortunately, the troublemakers were too cautious, not only did they fail to succeed, but they couldn't even find out the cause of Lu Yue'er's death.
Yingsleeve felt a little uneasy in her heart, and said to Shen Yongjie: "Mother, I always feel that Princess Qi and the people in the Qingxi class died too coincidentally. ”
Shen Yongjie sneered: "This is a sound attacking the west." I thought that if I did this, your imperial grandfather would not send Yuan Yingjia to Nanzheng Kingdom to be a proton. ”
Yingsleeve scratched his head and pondered: "Is this what it is?" "That's too cruel, isn't it?
In her heart, she didn't regard going to Nan Zhengguo as a proton as an unacceptable thing.
After all, take a look at Zheng Hao, isn't he happy to be a proton in Dongyuan Kingdom?
Xiao Lei followed beside him: "Or, I'll go and tell the imperial grandfather that I will go to Nan Zhengguo to be a proton, right?" It will also kill fewer people. ”
"No way!" Ying Sleeve and Shen Yongjie rejected him in unison.
Ying Sleeve is because she feels sorry for her younger brother's young age, but there is no other reason.
Shen Yongjie knew better, she paused, and said in a low voice: "You don't know." Nan Zheng Guo is much more complicated than our Dongyuan Kingdom. Lately I've been feeling restless. There are many people in the Southern Zheng Kingdom, and the military strength is no worse than that of the Northern Qi, and more importantly, the Southern Zheng State has a witch in charge of the national lineage. Once you go to Nanzheng Kingdom to be a proton, you will be a waste person when you return to Dongyuan Kingdom. For example, Zhan Shirong of the Zhan family, you see that he has made such a great contribution to the Dongyuan Kingdom, but when he returns to the Dongyuan Kingdom, the court does not dare to use him. ”
"Huh? There are witches in the country of Nanzheng?! Yingsleeve's eyes widened, "Why haven't I heard of it?" ”
"How did you hear that? This kind of thing, even Nan Zhengguo is not known to a few people. There are witches in the Nanzheng country. The inheritance of the shrine maiden does not depend on blood, but on empowerment. There is only one person per generation. Ordinary people only know that there is a witch in the country in charge of the country in Nanzheng, but who this witch is, except for the emperor of Nanzheng State, no one else knows. ”
