Chapter 318: The Case Is Over
The palace of Linguo is not very peaceful. The six princes wanted to implement the new policy, but they were hindered by many obstacles.
Childe Qingqian has also been in a bad mood recently. In order to hide from the eighth princess, Xuanfei revolves around him all day long.
The eighth princess came to look for him from time to time, and the two of them met and quarreled together, which made the son very irritable.
The sixth prince came to Gongzi Qingqian's house to relax, but Gongzi Qingqian said that he was almost okay and wanted to go back to Xiyuan Anguo Temple to live.
"The conditions there are hard, and it's not conducive to your recovery!" The six princes are right.
"It's okay!" Childe Qingqian was really troubled and upset by Xuanfei and his wife.
Of course, Xuanfei went to Anguo Temple in Xiyuan with Gongzi Qingqian.
The Six Princes sent people to send brocade quilts and charcoal fires. The eighth princess also brought a lot of delicious food to Xuanfei.
Childe Qingqian sat in the quiet room before he felt that his heart had calmed down and his breath was much smoother.
Master Mahai came to Childe's shallow courtyard at night. Childe Qingqian got up to greet him personally.
The two of them talked for a long time in the ashram. Xuan Fei sat on the futon and slept deeply, and he didn't know when Master Mahajing left.
Childe Qingqian didn't move Xuanfei. He meditated and practiced until dawn.
Xuan Fei woke up in the morning and found himself in a very strange quiet room.
"Shallow! How could I sleep here? Xuanfei asked, rubbing his neck.
"Let's go have breakfast!" Childe Qingqian walked to Xuanfei's side and pulled him up.
The eighth princess couldn't enter the Xiyuan Huguo Temple to see Xuanfei. This is because the temple only holds pujas during royal sacrifices, hunting, or during ceremonies and funerals. On weekdays, the temple doors are usually closed and pilgrims are not accepted.
In the temple, Gongzi Qingqian continued to look at the ciphertext of the three people who might kill them sent by the six princes.
The Six Princes had already ascertained the identities of those who had assassinated him in the royal hunting grounds. They were all soldiers of the 8th Battalion in the south of the hunting ground.
The South Eighth Battalion is part of the Royal Guard. After the death of the fourth prince of Linguo, the commander of the South Eighth Battalion has been replaced. After this assassination, Commander Wen has been imprisoned.
Empress Dowager Yu is the biological mother of the four princes. Since the death of the first emperor and the fourth prince, he has not left his palace gate for half a step. But a woman who can bring out a prince like the Four Princes is not an idle person. She's the most suspicious!
Mama Fang is the most powerful mama in the harem. She manages the waist cards for the palace ladies to enter and leave the palace. If the people of the harem were involved in this matter, then it would be possible to find out from her who had been out of the palace during the royal hunt.
Concubine Cen is the fallen princess of the Fuya Kingdom that has been destroyed by the Linguo. She also had a motive to assassinate the Six Princes.
These three women were also important figures in the Imperial Palace. Their connections are even more powerful than the current emperor.
Gongzi Qingqian asked the six princes to start with Mama Fang first to find out which palace people had left the palace during the preparation for the hunt.
Three days later, Gonggong Xu personally sent a copied list of people leaving the palace and the positions they belonged to.
Childe Qingqian checked them one by one. Xuanfei not only didn't help, but also said cool things.
"They imprisoned you here, and you helped him solve the case! I don't know which of your tendons is wrong! ”
Gongzi Qingqian checked it and found that no one in the palace of the imperial concubine and Concubine Cen had left the palace during this period.
The most frequent person who goes out of the palace is a palace maid named Liu Chunxing. She is the palace maid in charge of Fenglai Palace.
Fenglai Palace lived in Jiang Meiren, the most unfavored concubine of the former emperor of Linguo. She doesn't like palace life, and is called a cold beauty by the palace people.
Liu Chunxing was secretly taken by the six princes to the residence of the son Qingqian of Anguo Temple.
Gongzi looked at Liu Chunxing who was kneeling on the ground, and knew that she was a woman who had seen the world.
This woman is in her twenties, with fine eyebrows and eyes, thin lips and pointed jaws, and she looks shrewd.
In front of her, one is the emperor of Linguo, and the other is the first son of Youjing. She was very calm and unflustered.
Childe Qingqian just drank tea slowly. The time of a stick of incense has passed, and Xuanfei has long been unable to sit still. He just wanted to get up, but was stopped by Childe's shallow eyes.
Xuanfei had no choice but to prop up one leg and pick up the teacup and drink the tea in the cup.
The six princes sat opposite Xuanfei and sipped tea. He glanced up at Liu Chunxing from time to time.
Liu Chunxing felt a little numb in her knees. She couldn't help but glance up slightly at Childe Qingqian.
Childe Qingqian has already drunk three cups of tea. He gently put down the teacup and said, "Why did you stay by Jiang Meiren's side?" ”
"Jiang Meiren is very good to slaves." Liu Chunxing's answer was very natural.
"If you have no intention of leaving the palace, you can choose Gao Zhi with your ability!" Childe said lightly.
Father-in-law Xu added tea to Gongzi Qingqian. Liu Chunxing waited for Gongzi Qingqian to pick up the teacup and said, "The slave maid has no such intention. ”
"You used to be the person next to Concubine Cen?" Childe's shallow words made Liu Chunxing's body shake slightly.
"Yes! The former emperor often went to Concubine Cen. Slaves are always on the side, so ...... Later, Concubine Cen found fault with the slave and maid, and then expelled me from her yard. I was sent to a cold beauty that everyone didn't like to see. ”
"You're from Fuya?" Childe Qingqian put down the teacup and asked.
"Yes!" Liu Chunxing's forehead began to sweat.
"What is your relationship with Qian Yi, the former commander of the Southern Eighth Battalion?" As soon as Childe's shallow words came out, the six princes were taken aback. He looked up at Liu Chunxing.
Liu Chunxing's face suddenly turned pale. Still, she replied calmly, "He's my cousin." ”
"Smack!" With a sound, Gongzi Qingqian and the others were taken aback.
The six princes' annoyed foreheads were exposed, and the tea set on the tea table was also "buzzing".
Liu Chunxing lay on the ground, she knew that there were some things that she couldn't hide.
"Grandpa Xu! Spread the decree to arrest the anti-thief Qian Yi! The voice of the sixth prince was majestic.
"Slow!" Childe said something to stop it. Liu Chunxing raised her head and looked at Gongzi Qingqian.
"Take her!" The six princes already knew the intentions of the prince.
"The eighth princess has become a relative to Xuanfei, and I hope that the emperor will show mercy!" Gongzi looked at the six princes who had already gotten up.
"I'll think about it!" The sixth prince and Gonggong Xu took Liu Chunxing away.
"Was it really instructed by Concubine Cen?" Xuanfei still doesn't believe it.
"I won't know until I catch the money." Childe knew that Xuanfei didn't want to involve the eighth princess.
Xuanfei has always stood in the courtyard restlessly for the past two days, looking at the courtyard gate and being distracted.
"Grandpa Xu!" Xuanfei saw that Gonggong Xu was coming with the holy decree, so he greeted him.
"Concubine Cen has been sent to prison! Liu Chunxing and Qian Yi committed suicide. The eighth princess has been demoted to a concubine and has left the palace! Gonggong Xu put the holy decree in Xuanfei's hand.
Xuanfei opened it and saw that his marriage contract with the eighth princess had been dissolved.
"Father-in-law Xu, please stay!" Childe Qingqian appeared at the door of the house.
"Childe, please!" Father-in-law Xu gave a salute to Gongzi Qingqian.
"You go and find out which one Liu Chunxing was waiting for when she entered the palace?" Childe said thoughtfully.
"Liu Chunxing is dead, and the case is closed. Childe, this is ......" Father-in-law Xu looked at Childe in confusion. Could it be that there is something hidden in this case?
