Chapter 52: Finding Out the Truth

The third prince sobbed, and couldn't understand for a while, Concubine Li wiped her tears and said to the emperor: "Back to the emperor, Mo Qingrou was assassinated and killed in the middle of the night yesterday, and when the palace maids found her, her limbs were already stiff. ”

Concubine Li knelt down directly and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine feels that this matter is not trivial, Qingrou is very popular in the palace, presumably someone must have deliberately framed her, the concubine implores you to be the master of Qingrou!" ”

Concubine Li burst into tears when she spoke, and Rao is high up in heaven couldn't help but be moved when she heard it.

"Father, Sister Gentle is very good to Yu'er, she also healed Yu'er's face, you must find the murderer of Sister Gentle!"

The third prince put his arms around the emperor's neck and cried in pain.

The emperor wiped the tears of the third prince: "Okay, Yu'er, if the man has tears, he will not flick, and the father will definitely administer justice for your gentle sister." ”

"Father, the emperor's grandmother also said that she wants to seek justice for Sister Qingrou!" The third prince finally stopped crying.

"Okay, I'm going to ask the Queen Mother how she is investigating."

The emperor left Chuxiu Palace and went straight to the Empress Dowager's Cixiang Palace.

"The emperor has arrived."

The Queen Mother, who was secretly sad, heard that the emperor was coming and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

"The son asked the queen mother to say goodbye, why is the queen mother so sad?" The emperor saw that the queen mother was also crying, and asked inexplicably.

Mama Chang sighed: "The emperor doesn't know, the girl that the queen mother likes is not gentle, the queen mother has been crying non-stop, and the slave has persuaded the queen mother many times, but the queen mother just doesn't listen." ”

"It's this Mo Gentle again! Erchen doesn't know where this Mo is soft, so much so that you all cry about it. ”

The emperor took the queen mother's hand and said: "Queen Mother, don't be sad, Erchen has decided to investigate this matter thoroughly, I just heard Yu'er say that you are also investigating this matter, so Erchen came to ask you what the results of the investigation were." ”

The Queen Mother wiped her tears and said: "The mourning family has not investigated clearly, but the mourning family will definitely give the gentle girl a fair hand, no matter who the murderer is, the mourning family will never tolerate it." ”

"Don't worry, the queen mother, the son will definitely administer justice for this girl."

The Queen Mother nodded: "Gentle, this girl, I sent pastries to the mourning family yesterday, but I didn't expect to be murdered today, what a poor child." ”

The emperor finally reassured the queen mother, and ordered Li Sheng to send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.

At this time, Mo Qingrou was still sleeping in the general's mansion in An Shuangchi, and she didn't know that the palace had turned the sky upside down for her.

In order to show his feet, An Shuangchi did not tell Concubine Li and the third prince about Mo Qing's death, for fear that they would leak the news.

But he still has to go to the palace, after all, the murderer has not been found.

Concubine Li finally coaxed the third prince to sleep, and heard a rumor from Cui Xi outside, saying that An Shuang was late.

"Sister."

"You're here, you know? Gently died. ”

Concubine Li thought that An Shuangchi didn't know about it, but An Shuangchi's reaction greatly surprised her.

"Sister, I know about this, ...... Yu'er?"

"Yu'er is fine, it's just a sad cry, Bengong just coaxed him to sleep, but it's you, how do you know that he died softly?"

Concubine Li looked at An Shuangchi suspiciously.

An Shuang said impatiently: "Brother Chen accidentally caught the murderer. ”

"What?" Concubine Li looked at An Shuangchi in shock.

Then he quickly reacted: "This matter is not trivial, let's go and report it to the emperor and the queen mother!" ”

"That's what my brother wants."

The two of them hurried to the Lama Temple of Concubine Fang.

"Concubines/micro-ministers meet the emperor."

The emperor was reviewing the recital, and was a little surprised to see their sister and brother coming together: "It's strange today, you sister and brother actually came to look for me together." ”

"Your Majesty, Shuang Chi has something to say to Your Majesty about Mo Qing, you see ......."

The emperor immediately understood what Concubine Li meant, so he asked Li Sheng to invite the queen mother over.

When the Queen Mother heard that there was something about Mo Qingrou, she hurriedly asked someone to prepare a sedan chair and rushed over.

"The concubine/micro-minister asks the queen mother to say goodbye."

As soon as she got off the sedan chair, the Queen Mother let Mama Chang help her to walk into the Lama Temple quickly.

"Excuse me, Emperor, you said that the thing about the gentle girl is true?"

The Queen Mother asked the emperor anxiously, and the emperor asked the Queen Mother to sit next to him and let her breathe.

"Queen Mother, don't worry, listen to An Qing's family tell you in detail first."

"Okay, okay." The Queen Mother listened to the emperor's words and sat down.

An Shuangchi told the emperor and the queen mother what had happened.

"The soldier's soldier saw a sneaky person at the gate of the city, this person carried a package, holding a sword in his hand, he thought it was just a person from the rivers and lakes, until the soldier found that this person's package was full of blood, so he detained this person, but unexpectedly, this person ran away when he saw the officers and soldiers, and finally caught him under the siege of several officers and soldiers, and this person has been locked in the prison by the minister."

"Someone, bring me this murderer who escaped to me."

"No."

The Queen Mother held Concubine Li's hand worriedly, and Concubine Li patted the Queen Mother's hand to show comfort.

Soon, the Praetorian Guards brought up the murderer, who was trying to escape.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, this is a large number of silver tickets found on him by his subordinates, and the bloodstains on his clothes and sword in this package are consistent with the wounds on the body of the gentle girl."

Li Sheng presented the evidence brought by An Shuangchi to the emperor and the queen mother, and the emperor saw that the blood stains on it had not dried, which showed what the sword had done before.

So he slapped the table angrily: "Bold, dare to assassinate in the palace, and say, who is the mastermind behind the scenes." ”

The murderer snorted coldly: "There is no mastermind behind the scenes, it was because I saw that slut who was used to being domineering in the palace, so I killed her in a fit of anger." ”

"I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, the huge palace is heavily guarded, if there is no mastermind behind the scenes, how did you get into this palace, and how did you easily find Rong Fangxuan in these many palaces? You're so foolish, aren't you? The Praetorian Guards imprisoned this person in the Zongren Mansion and tortured him, but I didn't believe that he didn't tell the truth. ”

"No." The Praetorian Guard received the order and went down with the murderer.

At this time, in the Baoning Palace, Mama Xi got the news and hurriedly ran into the palace to tell the queen.

"Niangniang, the slave maid heard that the emperor is interrogating the murderer, and it was brought by General An."

When the queen heard this, she was so frightened that everything in her hand fell, "Why, how is it possible, didn't the palace give him silver and tell him to go far away?" Why didn't he listen to the persuasion and come back? ”

The queen angrily brushed the things on the desk to the ground.

Frightened, Mama Xi knelt on the ground and stumbled and said: "The slave maid heard that he had left the city, and it was General An's people who arrested him, but the specific slave and maid didn't know anything about it. ”

"Waste, waste, it's all a bunch of waste, what does this palace want you to do."

"Niangniang, Niangniang, don't worry, this organization is a well-known killer organization in the rivers and lakes, and what they do will be kept strictly secret no matter what they do, and their people are all trained, and they will definitely not confess to us."

In fact, Mama Xi was not sure whether the person would confess to them, and what she said was just to comfort the queen.

The queen sat on the soft couch angrily and looked at Mama Xi who was submissive below, and she was angry.

"Hurry up and think about it, so as not to get into trouble when you get it."

Mama Xi was also scolded for being stupid, and she actually came up with a method of poisoning.

The queen angrily threw the cup next to her hand: "Idiot, you poisoned? Who are you poisoning? The Queen Mother or the Emperor? Didn't you poison people to let people know that we did it? ”

"The slave is really helpless, the mother forgives the sin!" Mama Xi knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

When the queen saw her like this, it was not easy for her to have another seizure, after all, Mama Xi had been by her side for so many years, and she was still her nurse, so she couldn't bear it.

"Well, you go down first! We think long-term. ”

I hope that person will not confess them, and I hope that the emperor and the queen mother will not suspect them.

The queen rubbed her aching eyebrows and looked forward to it in her heart.

When Mo woke up gently, the housekeeper outside the door heard the movement and knocked on the door, "Girl, are you awake?" ”

Mo in the house stretched a big waist gently, and she was stunned when she heard the housekeeper's words, and then she realized that this was An Shuangchi's mansion, not Rong Fangxuan, and she was finally free.

She got dressed and walked out of the room, and saw the butler standing outside the door, looking at her with a smile.

"Girl, the general has ordered, if you wake up, go directly to the lobby to eat."

Mo gently touched his head embarrassedly, "What time is it?" Where did General Ahn go? ”

"Back to the girl, it's three o'clock in the afternoon, and the general has gone to the palace early in the morning to do business."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Mo Qingrou calculated for a long time before realizing that she had slept until noon, and her vigilance was too bad, she slept so dead in this strange place, and she didn't know how she died when she was killed.

An Shuangchi was conscientious, she entered the palace so early, and now that she has no Rong Fangxuan, she is idle.

The butler was overjoyed when he saw this girl with a rich expression, but he had never seen a general bring a woman to the mansion, and it seemed that this girl was a special existence for their generals.

Mo Qingrou didn't know what the housekeeper was thinking, she only knew that she was hungry now, and if she didn't give her food, her little life would be explained here today.

"Uncle housekeeper, where is there anything to eat? I'm dying of hunger. ”

The housekeeper quickly reacted, "I'm sorry girl, I was negligent with the villain, girl, please come with me." ”

followed the housekeeper around a garden and came to the lobby last night, Mo Qingrou saw that the table in the lobby was already full of food, and regardless of the image, he sat down and began to eat.
