Chapter 924: Familiar
"Niangniang, the old slave looks at the bracelet very familiarly, it seems to be from Concubine Mei's palace." Kexing, the eldest girl beside the queen, looked at the bracelet for a while, and said to the queen.
Hearing this, Concubine Mei's eyes looked at Ke Xing like sharp blades, and she looked at the bracelet for a while: "That bracelet was indeed the concubine's, but half a month ago, the concubine's bracelet was gone, but she lost a bracelet, and the concubine didn't pay too much attention to it. ”
"The deceased was a girl about sixteen years old, who was suffocated to death in a big black box, I wonder if there is a missing maid or something in the Niangniang Palace recently?" After saying this, his back was already wet.
This Concubine Mei is also a powerful one, not only gave birth to the five princes, but has always been pampered, and most importantly, Concubine Mei's maiden family is also very powerful, not comparable to ordinary concubines.
It can be said that if the emperor wants to abolish the crown prince, then the candidate to replace the crown prince is definitely the current five princes.
Now he is questioning Niangniang in person, which is to suspect that Niangniang is the murderer.
When Concubine Mei heard this, her face immediately turned cold: "This palace is the first of the four concubines, and it is just a matter of one sentence in this palace to kill a maid, if the maid makes a mistake, this palace can let the people of the Shen Criminal Division take it away, why do you have to do it yourself, Lord He, you are here to investigate the case, you have to investigate the case well, the thing is from the palace, yes, who can be sure that this person must be from the palace." ”
Of course, Concubine Mei was angry, and the prince came to target her as soon as he brought people, obviously against her.
"Niangniang, the lower officials are also acting on orders, I hope Niangniang will not be surprised." How scared to death.
The lady in this palace, none of them can be offended by him.
He was really afraid that he would lose his head if he said something wrong.
"What is Concubine Mei anxious about, this prince just brought him over to learn about the situation from all the mothers, and didn't say that it must have been done by Concubine Mei, could it be that Niangniang is empty-hearted." The prince hooked his lips, and looked at each other with a smile in his eyes.
"Concubine Mei, Lord He is just here to ask for a question, not from your palace, and everyone can't be wronged by you." The queen was naturally on her son's side.
If the son wants to investigate the case, the mother naturally has to cooperate.
"Lord He, the portrait can be restored, send it to the ladies of the palace to see, and see which palace the dead girl is."
"Yes." He Qiyou took out a picture scroll from his sleeve and slowly unfolded it.
The woman on the scroll is dressed as a palace maid, with a small nose, a palm-sized face, and curved eyebrows, looking delicate.
Everyone saw it and shook their heads.
"Haven't seen this person yet?" The prince felt strange, it stands to reason that this person is not of low rank, it must be the housekeeper in the Niangniang Palace, but no one knows him, could it be that he made a mistake.
The queen always felt a sense of acquaintance when she looked at the people on the scroll.
Thinking of something, he said to the prince: "Qi'er, this palace always looks at this person and the Zuo guard, why don't you invite the people of the Zuo family over and ask, but who is from their Zuo family?" ”
It is no secret that the daughter of the Zuo family got a strange illness and recuperated in Zhuangzi.
It was impossible for the queen to say that he would invite someone from the Zuo family for no reason, and the prince sent someone to invite Mrs. Zuo over.
Mrs. Zuo looked at the scroll on the scroll, and cried bitterly: "Niangniang, this is the daughter who is working hard, Niangniang, what's wrong with the daughter?" Isn't something wrong? ”
Mrs. Zuo is less than forty, and the maintenance is okay, and she doesn't look too old.
It's just that compared with a group of mothers, she still looks like the oldest.
"You mean it's your daughter?" The queen was surprised.
"The woman in the portrait is indeed a little girl, but this is what the little girl looked like three years ago, since the little girl had a strange disease, this appearance has not dared to show people, so the concubine took the lead and sent her to Zhuangzi to recuperate." Mrs. Zuo whimpered.
Mrs. Zuo wiped away her tears, and looked at the queen with teary eyes: "Niangniang, what happened to the little girl, the little girl has been guarding the Zhuangzi for ......." ”
"Master He, come and talk to her." The queen sighed, she didn't expect it to be Lord Zuo's beloved daughter.
Lord He didn't expect that the dead woman would be the daughter of the Zuo family, and he was a little stunned for a while.
"Lord Zuo." The prince reminded him.
"Mrs. Zuo, when we found Ling Qianjin, Jinqianjin's body had already decomposed, and she couldn't see her true face clearly, this is the face restored by the painter."
"What did you say?" Mrs. Zuo's body staggered, and her voice became urgent.
"Ling Qianjin was suffocated to death in a big black box." Lord He's voice was clear and light.
He has to be calm, he is not a murderer, what is he afraid of.
"Niangniang, please be the master of the little girl, it must be Natian Xiaomeng. The little girl had been to Jiangyin County under Jiangxia Prefecture with her brother once, and she had a bond with Tian Xiaocao, and the little girl has been sick since she came back from Jiangyin County, Tian Xiaomeng didn't go back to Beijing Xiaonu had nothing to do, she died as soon as she returned to Beijing, Niangniang, that Tian Xiaomeng is a female devil who kills people without blinking, begging Niangniang to execute Na Tian Xiaomeng, and give the little girl an innocence. Mrs. Zuo finished this sentence in a shrill voice, and fainted because she was too sad to cry.
The queen has a headache.
This is going on all the time, how is it going to be Tian Xiaomeng.
His eyes glanced at the prince lightly, and there were various meanings in his eyes, and there was a kind of prince who understood that the queen mother was blaming her for being nosy.
"Mrs. Zuo should go and identify it first, if it is really Ling Qianjin, Lord He will definitely give Ling Qianjin an explanation when he seriously investigates the case." The prince said lightly.
If this thing is really done by Tian Xiaomeng, it may not be a bad thing.
Now he wants to see how his good third brother can keep Tian Xiaomeng.
I don't know what the emperor thinks, if you put such a scourge in the capital, you will kill people now, but what should I do?" Concubine Mei sneered in her heart, the prince didn't know that the dead man was the daughter of the Zuo family at first, he thought that he could beat himself up, but he didn't expect this moth to come out in the middle.
Tian Xiaomeng is Tian Xiaomeng again.
She saw Hong'er several times looking at the portrait of the demon girl in a daze.
This demon girl should really die quickly, so as not to harm others.
"If this thing was really done by Tian Xiaomeng, the emperor would naturally not be able to get around her. Lord He, take Mrs. Zuo down to confess. ”
"Yes." Lord He led Mrs. Zuo down.
The news of Zuo Hanfang's death, Zuo Yifeng soon knew.
He went directly to see the emperor with a cold face.
The prince told him about this just now, Zuo Yifeng is here, it seems that a simple perfunctory will definitely not work.
