The gifts from Princess Ji and Princess Qi have also arrived.

Princess Ji sent a jade Guanyin, carved very exquisitely, is a good product, worthy of a lot of silver, Princess Ji this time is a heavy investment, out of a lot of blood.

She will give heavy gifts, Yuan Qingling is not strange at all, Princess Ji's face is always done to the extreme.

In contrast, the gift sent by Princess Chu Mingcui of Qi was a little shabby.

It's two roots of ginseng, and some angelica.

Chu Mingcui is a pragmatic person, she doesn't do façade work, she doesn't like Yuan Qingling, and she doesn't want to see her pregnant, so she sent these things, probably because the retainers in the house were in charge and talked about their hearts.

After all, they are all their own concubines, and if they don't give anything, they don't ask, but they seem stingy and narrow.

If you really send food or medicinal herbs, and you know that Princess Chu won't eat it, then there is no need to be too good.

His grandmother found a place to place the Goddess of Mercy, but when she wiped it, she found that there was a crack in the back of the Goddess of Mercy.

This crack is not obvious, if you don't look closely, you think it's the texture of jadeite, jade root.

But all Buddha carvings must be intact.

What does it mean to send a broken statue of Guanyin?

His grandmother was very angry and told Xi Mama.

Xi Mama said: "Forget it, put it aside, just talk to the prince, don't tell the princess, lest she get angry." ”

His grandmother said angrily: "Princess Ji is also too deceitful, isn't this a curse?" I've never seen such a black-hearted woman. ”

Her grandmother has always spoken carefully and measuredly, and she would never criticize a princess and master like this, and even if Green Sprout sometimes spoke without words, she would scold.

But she felt that this kind of thing could not go wrong and be taboo.

This is a very ominous thing.

If you don't find it, take this statue and put it in the room, and the princess will face this cracked Guanyin day and night, it will be really unlucky.

Mama Xi was also angry.

However, being angry is angry, and there is no way to say this, after all, I didn't find it when I sent it back, and now I say that there are cracks, how do you know that it is not a false accusation?

She said, "Forget it, let's put it aside first." ”

When Yu Wenhao came back, his grandmother went to tell him about it.

Yu Wenhao listened, and the thunder was furious.

Lao Yuan vomited half to death in the past few days, although he didn't bleed in bed for a few days, but the situation still didn't get much better, he was so distressed, Princess Ji actually deliberately sent nausea, Lao Yuan is not in a good condition now, and he can't be angry, if she is told to know, once she is angry, won't she have fetal gas again?

Yu Wenhao was never so angry when he was assassinated.

It's okay to move him, but it's not negotiable to move his old yuan.

The next day, he returned to the yamen early in the morning, and went to the palace of King Ji with the head catcher and several officials, saying that the death of Concubine Liu was still suspicious and needed to be carefully investigated.

King Ji had already gone to Tingjiang Mansion to suppress the bandits, but even if he was there, Yuwen Hao couldn't swallow this breath.

When he took people to the outside of Princess Ji's courtyard, he said loudly: "You all bring me masks in, Princess Ji's illness is contagious, and if you get sick, it is a dead end, if you don't want to enter the ghost gate, you can wear a mask tightly." ”

One sentence by one ghost door, one dead word at a time, people are terrified to hear.

Princess Ji naturally heard it inside, her face was stiff, but she forced out a strange smile.

Yuwen Hao entered, Princess Ji sat on the couch with a sick face, and said lightly: "The fifth brother is here?" ”

Yu Wenhao stared at her and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to disturb you to recuperate, but there is one thing, I have to ask my sister-in-law again, and please don't hide it." ”

Princess Ji said: "It doesn't matter, listening to the tone of the fifth brother, I am a dying person, so naturally there is nothing to hide." ”

Yu Wenhao looked at her cold face, remembered the Guanyin she sent, and said angrily: "Sister-in-law don't have to be discouraged, this illness is not certain to die, listen to the doctor's words and take medicine regularly, maybe you can survive for two or three years." ”

Princess Ji's eyes jumped with anger, her hand held the white porcelain cup, and her fingers were pale, "The fifth brother hasn't said what happened to him." ”

Yu Wenhao's expression changed, and he changed his official face, "That's the case, a few days ago, this king received an anonymous informant, saying that Concubine Liu was forced to death by her sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law used Concubine Liu's family as a threat to force Concubine Liu to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake. ”

Princess Ji said coldly: "Why do I want to do this? ”

Yu Wenhao looked at her and said coldly: "The secret report said that Princess Ji has no possibility of having children, and she is afraid that the birth of her brother will threaten Princess Ji's status, so she has murderous intent, but if she does it herself, she will always be found out, so she coerced Concubine Liu to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake. ”

Princess Ji's expression changed several times, and finally, she smiled reluctantly and looked at Yu Wenhao, "Nonsense, the fifth brother also believes it?" ”

Yu Wenhao said: "So this king came to ask to understand, if Princess Ji denies it, this person is falsely accused, and this king should be investigated." ”

Princess Ji sneered, "Investigation? ”

Admitting it is impossible.

But the case continues to be investigated, and I don't know how long this trouble will last, and once the investigation is made public, even if it is finally verified to be a false accusation, the people will probably spread the news that she coerced the concubine to commit suicide.

She hated in her heart, but she could not speak.

After being silent for a moment, she softened and coughed, "The fifth brother is so entangled, is it for the matter of sending the son Guanyin?" ”

Yuwen Hao looked at her with pity, "What's the matter with sending the son Guanyin?" The king does not know. ”

Princess Ji said with a guilty face: "That Guanyin, I gave it to Princess Chu sincerely, but I don't know that the people below are hairy, and I don't know that Guanyin has cracks in the ground, so I sent it to ask me for guilt, if the fifth brother is because of this, my sister-in-law will compensate you." ”

As she spoke, she stood up and faced Yuwen Haofu.

Yu Wenhao looked at her with no expression on his face, "The people below have done something wrong, and the sister-in-law should teach her a lesson." ”

Princess Ji immediately shouted, "Come on, bring Xiaoqing to me." ”

At that moment, a little maid was dragged in and pressed to kneel in front of Yu Wenhao.

The little maid was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and her eyes were full of panic and panic, and her body trembled.

Princess Ji said angrily: "The concubine gave Princess Chu Guanyin, you accidentally fell to the ground, and you dared to send it to the princess if there was a crack?" How many lives do you have to give? Come on, call me! ”

The little maid sat down on the ground and shook her head subconsciously, her eyes full of tears.

A stout grandmother stepped forward, grabbed the neckline of the little maid, picked up her palm and fanned it hard, and said angrily: "Kill you ignorant little slut, dare to offend."

Yuwen Hao shouted, "Slow! ”

Mama was stunned for a moment, took a step back and looked at Yu Wenhao, "Lord Wang, please don't intercede for this little slut, she deserves it, fortunately, Princess Chu is not angry to come out, otherwise, her death is not enough to atone." ”
