Chapter 122: Who is the murderer

Jiang Rong panicked in her heart, she killed a show girl on the second day after entering the palace, this is not a trivial matter, it will inevitably alarm the queen and the concubine, and what is more serious is that if Pei Shan's father Du Wei Haozhe knows, I am afraid that it will cause unease in the previous dynasty.

In any case, she must stabilize Chu Xiu Palace and not destroy this dead show girl.

The slave knelt tremblingly, did not dare to get up, kowtowed and asked, "Auntie, what should we do now?" ”

Jiang Rong settled down, hiding the turbulent emotions in her eyes, picked up a calm and calm look, and said loudly: "Send someone to carry Pei Shan's body over, you have all seen her, take a closer look, is it the daughter of Du Wei Haozhe?" It may be that a slave has died, Pei Shan is greedy and runs away, don't recognize the wrong person. ”

The slave hurriedly stumbled up: "Yes, yes, the slave will carry Miss Peishan over!" ”

The show girls in the courtyard were silent, and Pei Shan's disappearance made them feel very dangerous.

Tang Anxia lowered her eyelids, and her long, curly eyelashes covered the worry under her eyes.

Everyone knows that Pei Shan had a quarrel with her yesterday, and the suspicious eyes of Man Wen just now were clearly suspecting that she was poisoning her behind her back. This is inexplicable right and wrong, I'm afraid it will provoke me.

After a while, several sturdy minions hurried over with a shelf.

They placed the shelf in front of Jiang Rong, lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, and stepped back to the side in a playful manner.

Jiang Rong glanced at the drowning woman, her face was pale and even a little swollen, like a puffer fish. However, it can be vaguely seen that her face is charming, there is a black beauty mole above her lips, and her eyebrows and eyes are no different from Pei Shan's appearance.

Jiang Rong picked up the handkerchief, covered her nose in disgust, and commanded the terrified show girls in the middle of the courtyard: "Come here one by one to see, is this corpse Pei Shan?" ”

The show girls looked at each other, even though they were reluctant in their hearts, they still held a strong curiosity, slowly moved their steps, and approached the corpse lying on the ground that was soaked in the lake.

Whenever a woman came to see it, Jiang Rong would ask, "Are you sure it's Pei Shan?" ”

The woman would cover her lips and nod, not daring to say anything.

It wasn't until Manwen who came over, without waiting for Jiang Rong to ask first, she took the initiative to reply: "Auntie, she is Pei Shan, and her clothes are the ones she wore yesterday, so I guess that she fell into the lake and died last night, she must have been framed, and her temperament will definitely not kill herself!" ”

Jiang Rong looked at Manwen coldly, obviously very unhappy with her showy posture, so she directly ignored her existence and said indifferently: "You go back and stand up, next!" ”

Tang An Xia Lian moved slightly, walked in front of Pei Shan, stared at her quietly, and her flat tone was mixed with a little sadness: "Auntie, she is Pei Shan." ”

Jiang Rong frowned, a pair of bright eyes stared at Tang Anxia's expression, as if she wanted to detect clues from her cheeks, and asked, "I heard that you had an argument with Pei Shan yesterday and almost started a fight, but is there such a thing?" ”

Tang Anxia didn't want to hide it deliberately, so she simply looked directly at Jiang Rong's speculative gaze, and replied frankly: "Auntie, I'm not a woman who can endure it, Pei Shan slandered and abused me behind her back, so I taught her a few lessons." However, they were all trivial matters, and they were not worth her life. ”

"It's hard to guarantee that you pushed her into the lake and killed her for selfish revenge!"

Manwen's voice was neither loud nor small, and it happened to be clear to the people in the entire courtyard. She seemed to recognize Tang Anxia as the murderer, and she didn't leave half of her feelings between the words.

Tang Anxia turned to look at Manwen, and then, her clear eyes looked around, her beautiful face was fearless, and her voice was as delicate as a drop of bamboo leaves: "Why should I take revenge on Pei Shan?" First, I met her for the first time yesterday, and I was not familiar with it, it was just a verbal quarrel, if I wanted to take revenge, I only needed to sue the eldest prince, why should I involve a life? Second, I don't want her money, I don't want her people, I don't owe her anything, the same reason, she doesn't get much benefit from me, people will weigh the pros and cons, what's the use of me killing her? Why should I bother myself? ”

Immediately, Tang Anxia turned his head towards Jiang Rong and bowed respectfully: "I beg my aunt Mingjian, Pei Shan is jealous, but I believe that she just wants to drive me out of Chuxiu Palace, not to kill me." So her death has nothing to do with me. Between me and her, there is no deep hatred, there is no hatred or grudge, how can there be murderous intentions? ”

Tang Anxia's words were reasonable, Jiang Rong's brows furrowed even tighter, almost twisted into a ball, if Tang Anxia was left alone, who would kill Pei Shan?

In desperation, Jiang Rong summoned the minions of the main hall on the south side and asked sternly: "Tell me, where did your girl go last night?" Who did you meet? Why don't you come with her? As her subordinates, you can't even protect your master, what crime should you be guilty of? ”

The minion who took the lead kowtowed again and again, and replied aggrievedly: "Auntie, it's not our fault! Miss Pei Shan was furious last night, feeling that she had been wronged and had nowhere to appeal, and shouted that we had no chance of doing anything, and that we should go to the girl of the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss countermeasures and drive out the girl from the General's Mansion as soon as possible. We had to accompany her, but the girl didn't allow it, so she scolded us and drove us back, and went out alone. The servant waited on his knees for two hours, and did not see the girl returning, thinking that she might be living with Miss Manwen, and did not dare to go and disturb her, so he stayed up until early in the morning, how could he have thought that such a thing would happen! ”

Manwen's face changed suddenly, Xiumei provoked, her eyes were angry, she pointed at the minion in front of her and scolded: "Bastard, when did Pei Shan come to me?" The people of the entire east side of the dormitory can testify that I went to bed early last night, and I didn't see Pei Shan at all! If you dare to pour dirty water on my head, you won't die! ”

The minion was so frightened that his face turned pale, he knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, but his tone was extremely high, and he couldn't wait to get rid of the matter immediately: "The girl is angry, the slave's words are true, everyone in the hall can hear it clearly, Miss Peishan really went to look for you, as for what happened on the way...... Why did they fall into the lake, the minions really don't know! ”

Jiang Rong was dizzy when she heard this, although she had lived in the harem for many years, she had seen all kinds of intrigues. But now it is not the same as in the past, if a servant dies, throw it into the well.

The person who died now is the daughter of the dignified Duwei family, how can the show girl selected by the emperor and queen be neglected? I'm afraid that this matter will not be able to settle the matter!

Jiang Rong glanced at the people in the courtyard, and sighed helplessly: "All the show girls go back to the dormitory to rest first." ”

Then, he instructed the maidservant beside him: "You send someone to guard the servants in Peishan's palace, and none of them can be let go." In addition, find a few people to strictly control the front and back doors of Chuxiu Palace, and you can't let go of even a fly. ”

Immediately afterwards, he beckoned to the sturdy minions who were carrying the shelves: "You take Pei Shan's corpse with me, and follow me to the Fengyi Palace of the queen mother to ask for sin!" ”
