Chapter 12: Wave after Wave

Shen Qiaoqiao didn't want to listen to these frustrating words, "I shouldn't be offended, I'm offended, it's useless to say anything now, everyone be careful in the future, with me protecting you, I will definitely not let her hurt you." ”

Qing'er was a little stunned, princess, did she know that this deep palace was sinister, but it was useless to say this now, and Qing'er didn't know whether it was good or bad for the princess to become like this now, seeing that everyone was depressed, she tried to squeeze out a smile and said: "The princess is right, our princess's mansion is united, and we can get through any difficulties." ”

It's just that this has been all the way, and it has been a lot of hardships, and Liu Yunxi was also off-topic before, but now the princess is strong and can protect herself, which is also the most gratifying thing for everyone.

"Qing'er only hopes that the princess will marry safely."

"That's right, Qing'er, tell the dining room to make more delicious food, and let everyone make up for the pressure today." Things that have passed are no longer entangled, this is Shen Qiaoqiao's way of life.

Qing'er and the others didn't want her to worry about it, what the princess said, everyone just did it.

Next

Shen Qiaoqiao slept until three o'clock in the morning before waking up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Yuehua walking around anxiously by the bedside.

Shen Qiaoqiao rubbed his eyes and sat up, "Yuehua, what are you doing walking around, what's wrong with seeing you look anxious?" Where did Qing'er go. ”

Yuehua didn't know that the princess was startled when she woke up, so she clutched her chest and replied, "Princess, did I wake you up?" ”

Shen Qiaoqiao sighed and pointed out the window: "The sun is drying your buttocks, otherwise you woke me up earlier, what's wrong with you?" Why are their eyes red, what about them? Shen Qiaoqiao felt something strange and turned over and got out of bed, and walked around the dormitory, not finding Qing'er and the others.

"This ......"

"What are you doing with all your babbling, tell you the truth."

"Princess, Sister Qing... Sister Qing went out and didn't return, Xiaotong... Also. "Although Sister Qing couldn't tell the princess before she went out, she was really worried about their safety, and now the princess is not easy to fool, so she can't say that she doesn't know.

Shen Qiaoqiao frowned, an ominous premonition welled up in his heart, and he asked eagerly: "What the hell is going on, you hurry up!" Don't delay. ”

Yuehua knelt on the ground and couldn't help crying: "Princess, Concubine Niangniang said that she was unwell before dawn, and sent a message to Xiaotong to serve in the past, but she didn't return, Sister Qing was worried about her safety and went to inquire, but she hasn't come back yet, I asked Xiao Lizi and them to investigate, but there is no news yet." ”

Shen Qiaoqiao frowned at this time, and pointed to her head: "You!" Why didn't you wake me up early for such a big thing, what is Qing'er's status, do you think she can bring back Xiaotong from Concubine Niangniang, and you will change my clothes immediately. ”

Yuehua shook her head: "The princess atonements, but Sister Qing told me not to let you know, princess, you better not go." ”

Shen Qiaoqiao asked bluntly: "But I already know, do you want to watch Qing'er and Xiaotong die?" ”

Yuehua was stunned, and Shen Qiaoqiao patted her face: "Don't be in a daze, since you don't want them to have anything to do, change my clothes immediately, that damn mother-in-law, if you dare to attack them, I won't let her go." ”

Yuehua nodded, and hurriedly went to prepare, she and Qing'er grew up together since childhood, and like her own sisters, how could she be willing to let them die, seeing that the princess was so determined, she knew that she should believe in the princess.

Shen Qiaoqiao packed up his clothes and hurriedly went out, passing by the backyard and heard a noisy noise, which came from the rockery.

Vaguely heard that someone committed suicide, this is the only way to go to the palace of the concubine, Shen Qiaoqiao didn't think much about walking over, and then several guards walked out of the crowd with a corpse carried by a wooden plank, Shen Qiaoqiao was not in the mood to care about these idle things and continued to move forward, suddenly a gust of wind blew, Shen Qiaoqiao inadvertently glanced back, the white cloth floated, and the familiar face made her stop instantly, and her heart was clenched.

Shen Qiaoqiao shouted loudly: "Stop, carry me over!" ”

The guards and the group hurriedly saluted, Shen Qiaoqiao couldn't wait to step forward quickly, her scalp was numb, Xiao Tong's originally white and childish face was covered with bloodstains, she lifted the white cloth in disbelief, her neck was purple and black, and the joints of her limbs were bloodstained, which showed that she had been tortured inhumanly before her death, and was finally strangled to death.

Yuehua and a few little eunuchs gritted their teeth and didn't dare to cry, but when they saw the princess's hands trembling, they must have been very sad in their hearts, and they couldn't make the princess sad.

How so?

Why is it so good! Who the hell is the killer hand!

Calm down! Breathe deeply!

"This maid is from the princess's mansion, and now she has died tragically, where are you going to take her corpse?" Facing death for the first time, it was still so cruel, Shen Qiaoqiao's heart was shocked, she didn't have the heart to cheat, she just wanted to live her ancient travel days happily.

The guard replied respectfully: "Returning to the princess, this matter has been reported to the queen's mother, this woman has been verified to be self-killed, and according to the palace rules, she was sent out of the palace and thrown into a mass grave." ”

"Self-slaughter? Didn't you see the wounds on her body? That dereliction of duty should be diagnosed as self-inflicted, you bring him out for me, you are also the one with the knife, in all fairness, do you believe it? "Could it be that this deep palace has such an attitude towards the life and death of its subordinates.

The guards couldn't answer the questions, everyone knew the cruelty of the killing in the backyard of the deep palace, who dared to say it.

"Princess, don't embarrass us, we have to wait for the deal." The guards couldn't delay orders because of her.

Shen Qiaoqiao stopped: "She is my maid, how can she be thrown into a mass grave, not to mention the cause of her death, the master and servant, you let us take it back and clean it up, and we should give her a ride." Shen Qiaoqiao said that the tone behind her was already a plea, there were too few things for her to bow her head, but the deceased was big, poor Xiaotong was innocent and splendid, how could she bear to throw her to such a terrifying place.

Thinking of this, Shen Qiaoqiao couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, how terrible this deep palace was.

The chief of the guard waved his hand and asked someone to step forward to separate Princess Yunxi, and said sincerely: "Doesn't the princess know that the person who commits suicide without permission is against the palace rules, as usual, the family is connected, if the princess is merciful, she can intercede for the living, don't embarrass us here." ”

Shen Qiaoqiao frowned in disbelief, he didn't even give them the qualifications to die in this deep palace?

The chief guard sighed and persuaded: "The princess doesn't need to be sad, the slave maid in the harem is like an ant, her life is lowly, any master can control her life at will, I advise the princess not to care, and the princess will be in trouble when the time comes." As he spoke, he beckoned people to carry him away, leaving Shen Qiaoqiao standing in distraction.

Yuehua's palms were biting and bleeding, and she didn't dare to cry, Xiao Lizi and the two stepped forward to help her, and said sadly: "Princess, princess, don't be sad..."
