Chapter Ninety-One: The Princess Is Missing
Tang Jingchen was terrified all night, and always felt as if something big had happened, but she couldn't figure out what it was.
Xinyun is now written in the name of Queen Duolun, and she has already decided to marry Jungar, no one dares to abuse and bully her openly, only heart pity, thinking of that nightmare, Tang Jingchen is breathless, her heart is pitiful, six-year-old heart is pitiful.
Thinking about tossing and turning, although the room was cold, she was sweating, the high fever had subsided, touching her forehead, Tang Jingchen couldn't help but smile mockingly, this body is more and more able to withstand torture, if you had such a high fever in the past, you had to take medicine to go down.
Outside the window, it snowed heavily all night.
On the second day, someone came to inform them, asking the slaves of Xin Zheku to put down their work and go to clear the snow, but they couldn't go to the inner palace, so they only swept on the periphery.
In fact, this is the work of the rough eunuchs, but compared to the guilty slaves of Xinzhiku, the rough eunuchs are undoubtedly one level higher, and they can be instructed at will.
"Sweep all these places for me, and if there is a little left, be careful of your life!" After the reprimand, several eunuchs sat under the wall and gossiped.
"I heard that no, there is a princess missing, and I haven't found it all morning."
"Hey, what is missing or not, this is in the palace, maybe it is harmful."
"Whoever is full of food and supports to kill a princess, it is not a concubine who is jealous, and it is not a prince who takes the heir."
"Then who can say for sure, I heard that the princess's mother is dead, and the motherless child is not bullied."
Tang Jingchen lowered her head to sweep the snow, while pricking up her ears to listen to a few eunuchs talking, at first she couldn't help but be frightened, and when she heard the back, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, she wasn't dead yet, so what these people said must not be pitiful.
No, she has been in the palace for all these years, and the princes and princesses all know that there is no princess who died of her own mother.
Cold sweat trickled down, Tang Jingchen could barely stand on his feet, he could barely stand up straight with a broom on the ground, and slowly walked in front of a few eunuchs, "Dare to ask my father-in-law, what is the name of the missing princess you just mentioned?" ”
The eunuch was not angry, "Sin slave, what is your name, what does it matter to you, go and sweep the snow well!" ”
Tang Jingchen thought about the pity, thinking of that dream, tears fell in his eyes, "My father-in-law is good, just tell me, just tell me a name." ”
She prayed frantically in her heart, don't be pity, don't be pity.
The eunuch was annoyed, "Hey! You're a sin slave and shameless, I think you're trying to be lazy, right? I'll warn you again, go and clear the snow honestly, don't ask here about these things that have anything to do with you! ”
The other eunuch suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but look Tang Jingchen up and down, and after a while, he shook his head and sneered: "Look at you like this, get out, get out." ”
Tang Jingchen refused to leave, because of the eunuch's actions, she had a vague idea in her heart, and hurriedly said: "You guessed right, I am the former Concubine Jing, and my two daughters are still in the harem, I just want to know who the missing princess you are talking about." ”
The eunuch was very mean, "Yo, it's really Concubine Jing, I really can't see it, you can be favored with this honor?" ”
Tang Jingchen looked in the mirror that day and knew that her appearance was haggard now, which was very different from Concubine Jing who was favored in the palace at the beginning, but she didn't care anymore.
It's been almost half a month since she came to Xinzhiku, and she has been working every day, she has long lost hope in the emperor, no one will come to save her, and as for revenge, she can only think about it.
A sin slave, Xin Zheku can't get out, even if he can, he is also assigned to do some manual work like now, and there are people around him, where can he do anything, and looking at the attitude of this group of eunuchs, you can know that they are not afraid of themselves at all, and they can see that they can no longer turn over.
Yes, a sin slave, who was personally sent by the Queen Mother, and her daughters were adopted by others, what hope is there left?
The longer you spend in the Xinzhiku, the more likely you are to be forgotten.
Faced with the ridicule and ridicule of the eunuchs, Tang Jingchen just said indifferently: "Please tell me the name of the missing princess." ”
"I won't tell you." A eunuch pulled the male duck's throat, "Hurry you to death!" ”
The surrounding eunuchs all laughed, and one of them was even more perverted, and said to Tang Jingchen: "You kneel down and kowtow to us a few times, and we will tell you." ”
In the face of humiliation, Tang Jingchen gritted her teeth, isn't it just kowtowing, as long as they are willing to tell her the news.
With a bend of her knees, she knelt down, but the eunuchs exclaimed, and then dispersed in a hurry, they were the lowest servants in the palace, and the humility had already been carved into their bones, although they had the courage to mock Tang Jingchen, but they didn't dare to let her kowtow seriously.
"Come back, come back!" Tang Jingchen burst into tears, "I'll kowtow to you, you tell me, where is my daughter, mercy, are you okay-"
Xu Xinyue woke up and saw the corpse of her heart, and she was indeed half frightened to death as Duolun expected, but she soon calmed down.
The heart is cold, it can be seen that he has been dead for a long time, and he can't be saved, so he must think of the aftermath.
Xu Xinyue's big eyes and bones were spinning, she couldn't tell the emperor that she didn't know how Xinlian died, the emperor definitely didn't believe it, and the most important thing was that the emperor would definitely order the imperial doctor to examine the body, and she couldn't hide her abuse of Xinlian.
At this time, Xu Xinyue couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately there was a Concubine Wan who restrained the emperor, the emperor was favored these days and nights, and she didn't have time to take care of the affairs of the harem, so her cruelty was not exposed.
However, whether it is one thing for the emperor to die, it is another thing for his daughter to die inexplicably, and he must find out.
Even if he is free of murder, he will not be able to escape the charge of negligence and causing the death of the princess.
Xu Xinyue gritted her teeth with hatred, "Which slut did this, and you still want to blame the palace?" ”
She decided that it was a concubine who kidnapped and killed Xinpi, and then let herself take the blame.
"This palace will not be easily framed by you." While nagging, she called her henchmen and asked her to drag her poor corpse to the Imperial Garden and bury it.
Then she made a look like she had just woken up, and went to Kunning Palace unkempt, "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, the big thing is not good, the princess is gone!" ”
Duolun was stupid, looking at Xu Xinyue sluggishly, when the emperor got the news and hurried over with Shu Ying, she was still stupid and didn't come back to her senses, and muttered in her mouth: "Why is it missing?" ”
was beaten like this, and no one doubted her.
Xu Xinyue is a good performer, her face is full of panic and worry, "Yesterday, she broke one of my things, I said a few words to her and she ran away, I think she went back to the room, so I ignored it, who knew that this morning the palace people came to report that she was gone." ”
