Chapter 35 The Emperor's Death Becomes a Mystery
Back to the noon when the palace maid named Kiyozakura was assassinated.
"Your Highness, the people have already dealt with it."
"What about the guard."
"I've already sent someone, but tonight, and tomorrow will be a dead end."
"You know, Hongu's temper."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The conversation in the cabinet of the East Palace was cautious and nuanced, and it was clear that the crown prince was not as gentle as folklore.
In the back lake of the Imperial Garden, "Isn't this Qingying, why was she stabbed?" ”
"yes, why was she pushed off the lake?"
"It's so ruthless."
"Let's let me, this is an important witness, who found her first?" A guard with a knife stopped the crowd of onlookers and surrounded the scene.
"It's me, I was about to go to the Shu embroidery workshop to deliver clothes, thinking of taking a shortcut, but I saw a person floating in the lake, so I called the guards to come and salvage." A palace maid was kneeling tremblingly, with a wooden plate of clothes in her hand.
"It's all gone." The leading guard told the people to disperse.
A guard in the crowd who didn't have a sword looked at the swept away Kiyozakura panicked, as if he thought of something again, and quickly escaped from the crowd and rushed out of the palace gate.
Ran out of the second palace gate, and was running the path leading to the big palace gate, as expected, vaguely felt that someone was following behind him. After all, this is a palace, and no one has yet blatantly killed people on the trail, so he still has time to think about how to escape, and he is familiar with this road.
The people behind don't think so much at all, just take on the task and perform the task well, because if you want to live yourself, you have to take other people's lives and make a living from it, there is no blood and reincarnation.
When he was about to arrive at the palace gate, the guard suddenly turned to the "clean room" on the side of the palace gate, as the name says, this is the place where some poor people can't afford to raise their sons, so they send their sons over to the palace, and some choose to enter the palace because they already have wives and children.
He also knew what he was going to face, and the only way to take his life under a group of killers was to do it. For two months after the first cleansing, he had to stay in the cleansing room to prevent some people from having some strange epidemics and infecting the nobles when they entered the palace, which was not just a matter of losing their heads.
The palace maid is not as good as the guards, the eunuch is not as good as the palace maid, and the most undignified work is the eunuch's livelihood.
"Qingying, you went wronged, I will definitely avenge you, wait for the revenge to be avenged, I will go to you, you know, I will not break my word."
The guard's name is Chengyu, and he is the good friend of the palace maid who was assassinated, and they didn't do anything wrong, but they were discovered by the queen's palace maid, and then they were used by the prince and put something in the emperor's tea, this Qingying is not stupid.
knew that what he was doing was a headless thing, and he also knew that the prince and the emperor would not let go of him, so he left a strip of cloth for Chengyu, and his only thought was him, and he just wanted to protect him with his cheap life. She wondered if it was the prince's people who promised her, or if she was too kind.
And that palace maid was indeed assassinated by the prince's people, but she was thrown into the well, and then she was pulled out and thrown into the lake.
This person is Gu Jue, and he was in a hurry to do something, so he asked Bai Yourong to go to the "Flower Building" and deliver a letter. Even Qing Yan didn't know about this matter, and it was at this time that Bai Yourong discovered that Gu Jue's power was far greater than what he had observed.
"Hualou" is a place where Gu Jue collects intelligence specifically for himself, as well as a killer raised by himself. The content of the letter was to throw the person into the lake after the prince's people moved, and then find the palace maid to expose it, yes, it was the palace maid who was from the clothes.
Looking at the East Palace in a blink of an eye, the prince threw the teacup angrily. The man sent replied that the guard had entered the "clean room" and could not approach it for a while, and that the place was almost second only to the palaces.
"This palace asks again, that palace maid, are you sure you have dealt with it?"
Before the black-clothed man kneeling on the ground could return to him, a guard came to report, "Your Highness, for some reason, someone found that palace maid in the lake." ”
The guards knew that the prince was already angry at this time, but they still had to tell the prince.
"Get out, get out."
How could this be, fortunately, the medicine I let the palace maid put was not enough to kill, and the palace maid was already dead, and when the time came, my father would find out, as long as I moved a little from it, I would leave myself clean, and Gu Jue would be in trouble.
He didn't know at the moment that the emperor was terminally ill, and all he had left was a few sticks of incense. Because the medicine that really works is not the medicine of the palace maid.
