After seeing Sun Zhao leave, Meng Hui stood under the corridor with a frown, letting the hot wind blow on his face, silently chewing on the words and deeds of the prince in his heart.

When you think about it, his performance was perfect.

Regarding the murder of his sister, Sun Zhao showed obvious grief and anger;

Regarding the current situation that the murderer has never been identified and there are only two suspects, he behaves sensibly and restrainedly, and does not easily suspect anyone. He even said that he believed in the emperor and queen, believed in Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, and would definitely find out the truth;

He did not show any impatience with Concubine Liang's madness. Helpless and sad, he had to visit in person almost every day, and he accompanied the crazy concubine to speak, fulfilling his responsibility as a son of man.

It's just that Meng Hui shuddered when he thought of the death of the little prince more than ten years ago.

If Sun Zhao had murderous intentions towards the person who offended him when he was five years old, and he had the ability to take action, then this person was really terrible, and his appearance would definitely not be true.

And Sun Zhao's special advice when he left seemed a little strange. Even if he doesn't do this much, Meng Hui will be suspicious of the crazy words in Concubine Liang's mouth, and when he says this, it makes people feel that Concubine Liang knows something......

Meng Hui narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the direction Sun Zhao left, where only the overlapping shadows of the palace remained, and it looked a little infiltrating.

In this palace, there is really no simple person. Meng Hui sighed in his heart, and in line with the principle of doubting everything, he kept the crazy concubine in his heart in the small notebook, and as for Sun Zhao, he drew a red circle in a big way.

"Is the county lord here to send off the third prince? Why are you still standing here? Come in and sit and rest. Fangqing, who was sent to find Sun Yi'an, was carrying a food box in her hand, and she didn't know where she came out.

While beckoning Meng Hui to go inside, she held up the food box and explained softly: "This is Niangniang's medicine." The imperial doctor said that once the mother's mood fluctuates, she should drink it as soon as possible, which will help the condition somewhat. ”

The smell of the medicine is very pungent, it smells bitter, and the big bowl of black looks a little sticky.

"When did my aunt start...... In a trance? Meng Hui touched the temperature of the medicine bowl with his hand, and asked with concern, trying to be more in line with the original owner's personality and behavior.

Fang Qing saw that she was concerned, and replied without concealment: "Niangniang broke into the inner hall of Changning Palace on the day of the incident, we couldn't stop it, she saw the princess lying in a pool of blood, her expression was a little wrong, and she couldn't hear what she was saying. ”

Fang Qing paused, and then said: "The inner hall is full of blood, Niangniang has always loved the princess, and she naturally can't bear it when she sees this situation." ”

The inside and outside of the hall are bolted, and the outside is of course easy to open, in order to break the wooden bolt inside, the father-in-law and maid around Concubine Liang used all their strength. Fang Qing was next to her at the time, and she entered the inner hall with Concubine Liang.

"At the time, we all thought that the princess had committed suicide. After all, she was the only one in the temple, and there was no sign of damage to the windows. In addition, there was news recently that the emperor wanted the princess to go to the Ulan country to make peace, and the princess privately begged the emperor several times, but it seemed that there was no result. ”

"The princess is not in a good mood, she often closes herself in the inner hall and does not come out, she can't even eat, seeing that she is getting thinner and thinner, our mother and the third prince have tried to persuade her, but no one can persuade her."

Meng Hui didn't expect that Sun Yi'an would face peace before he died. Many dynasties have sacrificed princesses or county lords, once this kind of thing happens, it is useless to be favored by the emperor.

This matter should not have spread in the circle of officials and dependents, at least Sun Youyi did not hear the news, and the affairs of the previous dynasty should be spread to the harem and the backyards of various mansions, after all, it will still take a while.

Meng Hui saw that Fangqing had the heart to tell her, and hurriedly asked, "What happened later?" How can you be sure that Sister Pingyang didn't commit suicide? ”

"It was the adults from Dali Temple and the Criminal Department who came to find out that the princess was ......" Fang Qing bit her lip, her eyes couldn't bear it, and she breathed a sigh of relief before she continued, "She was stabbed in the center from behind, it is impossible to commit suicide!" ”

It is difficult for a person to pick up a sharp weapon and stab his backhand into his heart, at least Sun Yi'an, who has never practiced acrobatics, can do it. But the chamber was completely enclosed, the door was locked, the windows were not broken, and the roof was impassable, so it was impossible for anyone to enter or leave.

"And if the princess kills herself, who will tie the door outside?" Fang Qing snorted coldly and said, "Someone must be trying to lock up the princess and prevent her from coming out of it!" Otherwise, why lock the door from the outside? ”

Meng Hui felt justified after hearing it, but he still couldn't figure out how the murderer committed the crime. It suddenly occurred to her that there were already two suspects. "By the way, I heard that the eldest princess and the jade concubine are now being tried? How's it going? ”

"Right now, they're the most suspicious." Fang Qing stopped, asked the maids to step back, and talked about the eldest princess and the jade concubine, with obvious disgust in her expression.

"According to the investigation of Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, the eldest princess is the last person the princess has seen before her death. You know, the county lord, she and the princess have always been at odds with each other, and the two had a dispute some time ago because of their relatives, and finally went to the queen. ”

Meng Hui asked, "Because of a dispute with a relative?" This kind of big thing, even the eldest prince is not qualified to speak, where is the turn of the eldest princess to worry about it? "Sun Youyi has a special identity, and for the two parties of the eldest prince and the seventh prince, she must be mean in her words and cannot be kind.

Fang Qing saw that she was still speaking from her own point of view, and sure enough, she echoed: "Originally, it was not her turn, but she couldn't stop her from being active." ”

Since the eldest princess heard about the rumors of harmony, she began to come and go frequently to her mother's house, and asked her mother's family to play, and asked the emperor to settle the matter. The courtiers who held this intention were in the majority, and all parties made another effort, and Sun Yi'an's marriage to the Ulan Kingdom basically became a sure thing.

"On the morning of the princess's accident, she went to Changning Palace with great pride. The princess dismissed everyone and talked to her alone, as for whether the two quarreled or not, and what they said, now they can only listen to the words of the eldest princess! ”

"When the eldest princess left, she also told the maids outside that the princess was angry and didn't want to see anyone, so let them retreat."

When Sun Yi'an was in a bad mood, he never got angry at the attendants around him, and usually stayed alone in the inner hall without seeing anyone. The eldest princess relayed her instructions, and the maids didn't think much about it at all.

"Although the princess is often bored in the inner hall, don't you think it's too strange to let the eldest princess talk? Who knows if the eldest princess said that on purpose! ”
