Chapter 44: The Burial
Xing Tianze looked at the token stuffed into his hand and raised his eyebrows: "The princess is refreshing." ”
"Isn't this exactly what the prince wants?" Tao Mingxi rolled his eyes, and he was completely powerless to complain about this man, "Now that you have got the token, the prince should leave quickly, so I can't send it away." ”
It's really a good show! At present, he is talking about spoiling her alone, and he doesn't want to think about it, does she need his favor?
Tao Mingxi didn't bother to talk to him about those who didn't have it, so he directly opened his mouth to drive people away.
Xing Tianze wanted to say something, but saw Zhu'er walk in from outside at this time, saluted the two of them, and then walked to Tao Mingxi's side and wanted to say a few words in her ear.
But before he could speak, he heard Xing Tianze ask with a little displeasure: "Is there anything that this king can't hear?" ”
Zhu'er was a little embarrassed, and turned her eyes to Tao Mingxi for help, but she didn't dare to say the matter out loud immediately.
Tao Mingxi waved his hand, "Just say it directly, don't hide it, the prince is not an outsider." "The whole palace is his, whispering under his nose, and it will not be good if the other party thinks that he is collaborating with the enemy and treason or something.
She can't tell with 100 mouths!
Tao Mingxi thought so in his heart, but Xing Tianze didn't think so, and he was a little excited when he heard the sentence "The prince is not an outsider".
"That's the case," Zhu'er glanced at Tao Mingxi with a wincing look in her eyes, and then glanced at Xing Tianze, and still said truthfully,
"Xiaoyun's body has been in the morgue for a long time, although the weather is cold now, but it won't be long before the body will decompose, so the housekeeper sent me to ask Niangniang, when will Xiaoyun be buried?"
Tao Mingxi listened, and then remembered the existence of this No. 1 person!
I went to Yixian Tower to investigate the matter, but later I only cared about worshipping, and when I came back, I met the Queen Mother looking for trouble, and she forgot about it.
"Return her body to her family for burial, and take a sum of silver from the account room to bury it."
Tao Mingxi said lightly, Xiaoyun is also a poor person, she was instigated to do bad things at a young age, and she was ......
As soon as he thought of this, Tao Mingxi couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, if it weren't for her negligence, Xiaoyun wouldn't have died.
"That, Niangniang......" Hearing this, a look of embarrassment appeared on Zhu'er's face, and she didn't say everything for a while.
"Say." Tao Mingxi twisted his eyebrows and urged, how uncomfortable is this half of the hanging appetite?
"The funeral expenses and pensions have also passed before, but Xiaoyun's relatives have not appeared again since they took the silver, and they can't find it even if they send someone to look for it." Zhu'er opened her mouth and said everything she wanted to say in one breath, and then lowered her head and didn't dare to look at her master's expression.
"What? People are gone? Tao Mingxi's already wrinkled brows furrowed even deeper, "The relatives who died at home should be sad and sad, even if they don't dare to come to the palace to annoy, they shouldn't even want corpses!" There must be deception in this. ”
"The princess has a point." Xing Tianze nodded in agreement, agreeing with Tao Mingxi's words.
Tao Mingxi glanced at the other party, and didn't bother to talk to him, didn't this man still wonder if she killed someone before? What are you doing with her now?
"That's it," after thinking about it in his heart, Tao Mingxi opened his mouth and ordered: "Xiaoyun's body will be sent to the burial first, remember to do it beautifully, she lived a very pitiful life before her death, at least she will find a good place to return after death." ”
"Yes." Pearls nodded in response.
"There must be something strange in this matter, you send more people to search for the whereabouts of Xiaoyun's family, and tell me as soon as there is news."
She never gave up investigating this matter, and those maids all said that they had delivered meals and quilts on time, and Xiaoyun should not freeze to death!
As for letting people bury her, first, because she had already checked Xiaoyun's body, she really couldn't find anything.
Second, she has been dead for so many days, and if she is not buried, she will soon decay, so it is too disrespectful to the deceased!
"Yes." Zhu'er nodded, and after making sure that her master had nothing else to say, she turned around and withdrew.
There were only two people left in the courtyard, Tao Mingxi's attention returned to Xiaoyun's matter, and he didn't have the heart to care about Xing Tianze now, "If the prince has nothing to do, leave quickly, I won't entertain you." ”
Escaping is definitely wanted, but I can't think of anything for a while now, so let's put it aside.
And Xiaoyun's matter is a thorn in her heart, and if she doesn't find it out, she won't be at peace.
"What? Does the princess still plan to continue investigating the matter? Xing Tianze raised his eyebrows and asked, he was sure in his heart that Xiaoyun's death was caused by Tao Mingxi, but now it doesn't seem like it.
If they really blamed it, then why did Xiaoyun's relatives run away? Thinking of what he said earlier, it was really a bit excessive, and Xing Tianze couldn't help but feel a little weak and guilty.
"Check! It has to be looked up. Tao Mingxi said without thinking about it, and handed the other party a "Are you an idiot?" Then he said: "Whether it is to prove my innocence or to give Xiaoyun justice, this matter must be investigated clearly!" ”
If she doesn't get a result that satisfies her, she will definitely not give up!
Looking at Tao Mingxi's resolute eyes, Xing Tianze's heart moved slightly, and his indomitable look was really pleasing to the eye.
He was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, with a faint smile on his face: "In this case, how about the king of this investigation with you?" ”
"No, I don't." Tao Mingxi immediately opened his mouth to refuse, without the slightest hesitation in his tone, and he didn't even think about it: "Didn't the prince still believe me before?" Why do you want to mess around with me now? Don't you believe that I killed man? What else is there to look up? ”
"After all, is the princess blaming this king for wronging you?" Listening to the other party's yin and yang strange words, Xing Tianze was not angry, raised his eyebrows and asked, looking in a good mood.
"It's good to know some things, and you don't have to say them so bluntly." Tao Mingxi pouted, and his friend directly gave him a positive or negative answer, but said.
The implication is "yes".
"At that time, it was indeed the king who was reckless, mistakenly thinking that the princess was ruthless, and the king apologized to you for this matter." After all, it was he who was the first to lose, and Xing Tianze didn't cheat at this time, and honestly apologized.
Tao Mingxi's eyes widened when he listened, with an incredible expression, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
