Chapter 136: Identity Confirmation
Feng Wei saw that Lan Baobao came late, so he took the initiative to introduce to her: "Lan, this Mama Jiang is the head of the Ayaqi Palace, and this Xiqiu girl is the big palace maid next to Concubine Qi, and they are the closest people around Concubine Qi. ”
Baby Blue saluted the two of them, and they returned the salute.
"The situation of the deceased is a bit special, you two are ready, don't be scared." After Feng Wei reminded him, he went straight to the point and slowly lifted the white cloth covering the corpse.
The first thing that was revealed was the top of the head and face, although the deceased's hair bun and face had been carefully treated after the autopsy, and the blood stains on the wounds had been cleaned up, but the horizontal and vertical cypress scars, the upside-out flesh and the blurred facial features still made the two people who saw these for the first time frightened and exclaimed.
Xiqiu sat directly on the ground, his pale face was instantly covered with tears, and his whole person shrank on the ground and trembled.
In contrast, that Mama Jiang seemed quite calm, Rao was like this, her eyes were still red in an instant, tears slowly slipped down her painful face, but her eyes were fixed on that terrible face, as if she wanted to see the face underneath through those intricate scars.
She seemed to be a little skeptical, or even incredulous, and her whole body was full of sadness.
"This ...... Is it really our mother? After a long time, Mama Jiang still asked this sentence.
Feng Wei said to her: "I invited the two of you to come over today, just to ask you to help take a look." Judging from the clothing and body shape, the deceased and the chess concubine are very close, you can take a look at this corpse first. ”
Mama Jiang trembled and held the corpse, her eyes trembled, and her expression collapsed even more after reading it.
Everything is in line with the mother, only this horrible face is unrecognizable.
Seeing that her legs and feet were weak, Lan Baobao hurriedly reached out to support the person, but Mama Jiang had completely unloaded her strength and could only cling to her arms.
Xiqiu has been sitting on the ground crying, looking even more collapsed than Mama Jiang, and I am afraid that I will not be able to calm down for a while.
Lan Baobao suddenly thought of a question, when the chess concubine Niangniang came down from the city tower, she should be followed by the palace maid, at least Xiqiu must be by her side.
But why didn't they see Xiqiu when the chess concubine went crazy?
After the chess concubine fell into the water, they had never seen Xiqiu, where was she at that time?
"My lord, can I look elsewhere?" Mama Jiang lay in the blue baby's arms for a while before regaining some strength, straightened her head and pleaded.
Feng Wei nodded, and pulled the white cloth down a little, revealing the upper body of the deceased.
The blue baby helped Mama Jiang to approach, and Mama Jiang leaned over to observe the corpse carefully, and her eyes did not dare to stagger for a moment.
After a while, Mama Jiang opened her mouth again and asked: "The old slave has a reluctant request, can you ask His Royal Highness and the adults to avoid it first, the old slave wants to see the situation under the clothes." ”
"You stay."
Lan Baobao was helping Mama Jiang, and suddenly heard His Royal Highness say, his two arms shook slightly, and he didn't react for a while.
Mama Jiang also raised her head in shock, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Highness, this ...... I'm afraid it's inappropriate. ”
The blue baby finally came back to his senses and nodded his head hurriedly.
It's really inappropriate, no matter whether this corpse is a chess concubine or not, she is now an internal servant, and she can be regarded as one or half a man, how can she peek at the woman's naked and physical body. In case this is really the corpse of the chess concubine, it will be a very serious offense.
If His Majesty knew about this matter, he would not gouge out her eyes, and his reputation for Niangniang would not be good.
"Your Highness, why don't you go down and find a reliable woman to come over?" Bai Xiao arched his hand and proposed.
Mama Jiang and Xiqiu are both people around Concubine Qi, no matter how they want to confirm the identity of Concubine Qi, someone must be watching next to them.
"Don't bother, Blue Baby stays." Jin Lingluo once again emphasized what he meant.
The rest of the heat all looked at each other, and the blue baby glanced at Mama Jiang next to her, and the other party's face was simply ...... It's hard to put into words.
"Rest assured, when the time comes... I'll turn my back, you can check it quickly, I promise I won't look around. Baby Blue assured with some tiredness.
Xu has been defending her since just now, so Mama Jiang has a good impression of her, and after listening to her assurance, she knew that there was no room for negotiation, so she pursed her lips and nodded in agreement.
After the three big men next to her all went out, Lan Baobao glanced at Xiqiu, who was still sitting on the ground, and the look on her face was still a little dazed.
Mama Jiang also looked at Xiqiu, and did not go over to call someone, but shifted her gaze to the blue baby again.
"Oh, I'll avoid it right away." After being stunned, the blue baby hurriedly turned around and walked forward a few steps.
Her eyes were glued to the door, her eyes all behind her.
She knew that His Highness had kept her here to prevent them from doing anything.
Soon there was a sound of squirming and undressing, and occasionally inhaling and sobbing lowly, it sounded like Mama Jiang couldn't help it anymore, but she didn't let herself make too loud noise.
About a quarter of an hour later, Mama Jiang said in a trembling voice, "Father-in-law Bao, you can turn around." ”
The blue baby breathed a sigh of relief silently, and as soon as she turned around, she saw Mama Jiang standing there with a faceless face, exuding a sad and painful aura all around her. Her eyes were red, and tears kept rolling in her eyes, as if they were about to roll out of her sockets each time, and soon miraculously rolled back again.
Blue Baby knew that Mama Jiang was trying her best to endure the pain in her heart.
Seeing such a scene, she felt that the identity of the deceased was beyond doubt.
With a sigh, he opened the door and invited the three men outside to come in.
Mama Jiang adjusted herself for a long time before she had the strength to salute them, and said in a dumb voice: "Your Highness, the old slave has already checked, this ...... It's really our mother. ”
By the time she had reached the last few words, her voice had been completely shattered and sounded very indistinct.
Rao is so, and everyone still hears clearly.
"How did Mama confirm?" Jin Lingluo asked.
There was no mention on the corpse that there were any obvious marks on the corpse that could identify it, so when they heard that Mama Jiang was so sure of the law, they couldn't help but have a trace of suspicion.
Mama Jiang has been trying to keep herself calm, and replied in a low voice: "Niangniang was brought up by the old slave, and the old slave is very familiar with her, and she will never mistake Niangniang's body." ”
"If you rely only on feelings, not evidence, how can this king believe you?" Jin Lingluo asked rhetorically.
Mama Jiang was dumbfounded.
At this time, Xiqiu finally relented, slowly got up from the ground, walked to Mama Jiang's side and saluted everyone, and when she opened her mouth, her voice was hoarse.
"On the day of her birth, she broke her head, and the wound was on the left side of the top of her head, about half an inch long, because the situation was urgent at that time, and the wound was not treated in time, and there was a scar there. Very shallow scars, Your Highness can ask someone to check it. ”
There was a scar in his hair, and the others were a little uplifted.
It would be great if the identity of the deceased could be confirmed.
Lan Baobao thought about checking the scar and estimated that it was going to fall on her head again, so he rolled up his sleeves at the moment, secretly emboldened himself, and was about to raise his feet and walk over to the ground, but His Royal Highness ordered: "Feng Wei, you go and check." ”
Stunned, the blue baby silently withdrew the half-step foot, and Feng Wei quickly passed in front of her, taking the opportunity to throw her a meaningful look.
The scar was hidden in the thick hair, peeling back layer after layer, and finally revealing a very shallow scar, so shallow that it seemed to be just an illusion of the human eye.
Such an inconspicuous scar could easily be overlooked unless someone reminded it and provided a location, and it is no wonder that it was not found during the post-mortem examination.
Feng Wei quickly returned to the original place and said to Jin Lingluo: "Your Highness, there is indeed a scar. ”
At this point, the identity of the deceased was finally conclusive by a shallow scar.
Blue Baby doesn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, is he finally relieved, or has he been covered up again?
Within two days, they finally confirmed the identity of the deceased, but if His Majesty learned of Concubine Qi's death, he didn't know what would happen.
Besides, once this case involves the palace concubine, it will be really difficult to handle.
Although Concubine Qi's maiden family is not in the capital, after all, it is also a century-old family, and now it is the festival envoy in the area of the northern town of Moqiong, which can be regarded as the overlord of the town guard.
His Majesty also attaches great importance to the Locke family, and the forces in the north that are about to move rely on the Locke family to secretly control them, which makes His Majesty have spare strength to rectify those who have dissenting intentions in the court and cultivate his own forces to consolidate the throne.
If the Locke family now knows the news of their daughter's death, once they come to the capital, they are afraid that it will not be good to deal with the aftermath.
"Your Highness, I want to ask Miss Xiqiu if I have some questions." Baby Blue stepped forward and asked for instructions.
Jin Lingluo nodded and motioned for her to ask.
Lan Baobao turned to look at Xiqiu, but the other party still didn't dare to look at her, and lowered his head slightly.
"Miss Xiqiu, where were you when Niangniang jumped into the river that day?" Blue Baby didn't care what she was thinking, just asked.
Xiqiu lowered her head, it was difficult to see what the expression on her face was, and she only heard her urn and replied angrily: "I stayed in the palace that day, not to follow Niangniang to the imperial tomb, but also to find out afterwards that Niangniang was actually ...... If I had known this was going to happen, I would have been by my mother's side that day. ”
In the end, she faintly cried again.
Lan Baobao ignored it and continued to ask, "Was Mama Jiang not there at that time?" Who followed the chess concubine at that time? ”
Mama Jiang came over and explained: "The day before Niangniang left the palace, some things happened in the Ayaqi Palace, and the old slave and Xiqiu stayed in the palace to deal with these things. The people who followed Niangniang that day were Lingyu and Chaoyu. ”
"How are the two of them doing now? Why didn't they stop the mother at that time? Blue Baby asked.
"They were punished when they were brought back to the palace, and now they are still lying in bed and can't get up."
It was still Mama Jiang who replied: "According to them, not long after going down the city tower, for some reason, Niangniang suddenly ran forward regardless of it. They didn't expect such a thing to happen, and they couldn't stop the mother in time. ”
"Later... Because there were too many people on the shore, the Yulin guards were also alarmed, and the scene was chaotic for a while, and they were scattered by the crowd immediately after, and later they heard the movement in the river to know that Niangniang had fallen into the water. ”
It sounds reasonable, after all, in addition to the two palace maids, there were many Yu Linwei who were following Concubine Qi at that time.
Even these athletic men didn't stop anyone, let alone the two delicate girls.
"Mama, what happened in the Ayaki Hall before? He has entangled both of you. Blue Baby asked.
Mama Jiang lowered her eyes with a deep face full of secrecy, and Xiqiu unconsciously raised her chin and looked at Mama Jiang nervously.
