Chapter 437

In the side hall, Liu Yun saw that Xiao Qinglang said so bluntly and ugly, and she didn't know how to argue for a while, so she could only bury her head in the quilt with tears in her eyes. At this time, where is she still in the mood to investigate deeply, don't say anything about the three princes who were killed, even her own situation, she is confused, and she doesn't know what to do.

At this moment, the emperor who had arranged everything came over with Yan Gongzi and Lou An and others, who arrived first.

He glanced at the room, and the undercurrents in his eyes finally calmed down, and there was no anger or abnormality. It's just that when he saw the corpses of Xiao Qinglang and his third son, the aura around him suddenly rose up, which made people feel terrified.

"The Praetorian Guards will exit first, guarding the front and back of the side hall, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without permission." The Emperor waved slightly, then looked at the leader of the Praetorian Guard.

Seeing this, the leader of the Praetorian Guard walked directly to Xiao Qinglang's side, bowed and saluted: "Lord Wang, please follow me to the Warm Pavilion to rest for a while." ”

Without waiting for Xiao Qinglang to speak again, Yan Ruming stared at the bed with red eyes, and then did not wait for others to dissuade him, and even walked directly to the bed regardless of the presence of the emperor and the two princes of this dynasty at this time. He didn't hesitate, he directly reached out and pulled away the brocade quilt that buried Liu Yun's face, and then saw that the person next to his pillow was looking at him with tears on his face.

Yan Ruming was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to react for a while. It wasn't until Liu Yun called him with tears in his eyes that he looked at Xiao Qinglang angrily, and he wanted to pounce on him and tear it apart regardless of his dignity and etiquette: "You beast with a human face and a beast's heart, I knew that you had a bad idea of Yun'er, but I didn't expect you to disregard the law and the royal face so much......"

Xiao Qinglang frowned, didn't care about his angry scolding, only glanced at him quietly, and said coldly: "This king is also curious, why Huan Rong died here, and the young lady of the Yan family was naked in the bedroom of the side hall. ”

His eyes were cold, but it calmed down a little for the people around him who had different thoughts. Looking at the appearance of the prince, it seems that he has no nostalgia and pity for Liu Yun, so what is going on today......

Yan Ruming saw that his expression was indifferent, his eyes were as sharp and cold as a sword, his heart trembled at first, and then he bent his neck and said with a white face: "You don't want to slander people, you must want to do something wrong, but you were broken by Prince Huan Rong, so you just don't do anything and kill people directly, so as to protect your reputation as King Jing'an." Gongzi Huan Rong walked with our husband and wife all the way, how could he do such a dirty thing if he was enthusiastic, not to mention that Gongzi Huan Rong is dead now, if you pour dirty water on him again, I'm afraid he won't be able to argue......"

"I said, how could you use the body of a prince to buy such a valuable dowry for the daughter of a small inspector, it turned out that you were a thief." Yan Ruming gritted his teeth and said, "At that time, I only thought you were a gentleman and an adult, but I didn't expect you to be ...... It turned out to be ......"

Yan Ruming stared at Xiao Qinglang deadly, as long as he thought of his wife's expression just now, he was like a fish in his throat, and his heart was extremely angry.

At this time, he kept roaring, struggling in the hands of the guards to pounce on Xiao Qinglang. On Xiao Qinglang's side, his eyes were calm, and he looked at him without any waves, just let him insult.

In contrast, it makes people more and more incomprehensible.

Seeing that the scene was becoming more and more chaotic, the emperor on the side couldn't help but scold: "Nonsense, come here, take Yan Ruming down for a while." In addition, based on Xu Chu of Dali Temple, the three law divisions will jointly investigate the case, and such things happen in the palace, no matter what the inside situation is, I will not tolerate it. ”

Yan Ruming is just a pampered son, and now that he is coldly reprimanded by the emperor, he naturally does not dare to make trouble again.

Just after this scene calmed down, Xu Chu also hurried over. Before, she was delayed on the road for a while in order to interrogate the palace maid, but now when she came and passed by Xiao Qinglang, she saw that Xiao Qinglang's expression was not abnormal, and he should not be injured, so she was a little relieved.

Xiao Qinglang saw Xu Chu looking worriedly, and shook his head silently to indicate that he was okay. Then, he went to the warm pavilion.

After entering the bedroom of the side hall, Xu Chu first saluted the emperor, then got up and looked around, and when he saw the situation on the bed, his eyes paused slightly, and his heart was inexplicably uncomfortable.

On the way here, it was enough for her to find out about the so-called rumors of the emotional entanglement between Mrs. Yan and Xiao Qinglang.

It turned out that this Young Lady Yan was the only woman who could make Xiao Qinglang treat each other exceptionally in the past.

To be honest, Xiao Qinglang had also explained this matter to herself before, and she was very unimpressed at that time. But now that I see it again, I realize that for myself, this person's existence is really not good, and it will even cause me to be more irritable.

Xu Chu never knew that he also had such a serious desire for exclusivity, so much so that he hoped that Xiao Qinglang would treat himself physically and mentally. She knew that there was something wrong with her mentality, but she still couldn't ignore the irritability in her heart.

She took a deep breath and glanced at the doors and windows around her, and saw that the windows were completely closed, and there was no fragrance in the room, and the openwork and bustling incense burner in the corner did not have any cigarettes wafting.

Looking at the neat tables and chairs in the room, there is no trace of fighting, and there is not even any trace of resistance.

On the vermilion round table, although there are cups and teapots, it is obvious that the teacups are neatly buckled on the side of the teapot, and there is no trace of being used. The water in the teapot has been cooled for at least half an hour.

Xu Chu frowned slightly, secretly calculating in his heart that Xiao Qinglang was the Lanzhi Hall that left a quarter of an hour ago. Except for the time to change his clothes, if he was deceived here at that time, the tea should be regarded as residual warmth at most, and according to his habits, he would never be wronged to drink cold tea.

Therefore, he should not have been exploited because of drinking tea. In the room, there is no incense, so it should not be incense.

Xu Chu looked around carefully, and finally only hindered caution and asked Lou An to send someone to take the teacup and teacup to the inner court for inspection.

On the floor of the room, because the Praetorian Guards and others had entered, the occasional footprints were really messy. However, for the sake of prudence, she still extracted a few obvious footprints and used them for future comparisons.

After confirming that there were no other clues in the room, Xu Chu took the toolbox that Tang Qiaozheng brought when he entered the palace, and then took out his gloves and put on his mask.

Because the matter is about the prince, although it is only the prince who has been demoted to the rank of concubine, the corpse is not something she can dispose of at will.

Therefore, before squatting down to check the corpse, Xu Chu still looked at the emperor and hesitated: "Your Majesty, I don't know if this autopsy can also be examined by the lower officials in their own way?" ”

The emperor's expression paused slightly, his eyes hesitated, and after a while, he frowned and said, "Try not to hurt Huan Rong's ......."

Xu Chu nodded yes, although if he didn't dissect the corpse, he might lose a lot of clues. However, it is not impossible. The reason why she asked this question was just to know what the emperor could allow her to do.

However, before she could reach out and remove Xiao Huanrong's clothes, she heard a cry. Immediately, Liu Deming hurriedly entered and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, Concubine De is here, and she also brought the wife of Prince Huan Rong...... Concubine De Niangniang ignored the sword of the Praetorian Guard, and rushed all the way in, and the Praetorian Guard was worried about hurting Niangniang's noble body, so she didn't know what to do. ”

When the emperor heard this, his face sank, and he was about to reprimand, but after all, he thought that it was Concubine De's son who died here. When she heard the bad news, she must have been heartbroken, so even if she lost her physique, it was understandable.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said a little helplessly: "Let Concubine De and the Third Prince Concubine go back to the Yang Palace first and wait, and when this case is revealed, I will naturally give them an explanation." ”

Liu Deming responded and bowed away.

But before they could take a moment, they heard a loud commotion, the sound of swords clashing with each other, and then a burst of exclamations.

didn't wait for the emperor to send someone out to check again, and saw Liu Deming trotting over with a pale face. Fortunately, there were no outsiders here, so he quickly announced: "Your Majesty, the third princess has committed suicide, Concubine De Niangniang is holding the injured body of the third princess and confronting the Praetorian Guards, and the old slave is very excited when he looks at Niangniang...... I'm afraid that there is also the meaning of desperate fighting......"

At this time, even the emperor couldn't help but become anxious, he waved his hand and said, "Then what are you still doing in a daze, don't you hurry up and ask for a doctor." Liu Deming, you go and bring Concubine De over in person. ”

At this time, his expression was really condensed, and he could see that the anger that had been suppressed was about to burst out.

Concubine De was brought covered in blood, and at this time, where did she still have any graceful and gorgeous posture. She didn't even look at the emperor anymore, and directly pounced on the corpse of her own son on the ground.

"Huan Rong, open your eyes and look at the concubine...... Huan Rong ......" Concubine De's tears were blurred, and she kept reaching out to shake her son, looking miserable and grief-stricken.

"The mother concubine will never force you again, you can marry whoever you want in the future, and you can accept whoever you want. Don't you like the little palace maids, the mother concubine went to beg your father and the emperor, and begged him to give you the permission of several little palace maids in the mother's palace. Concubine De even had a hint of madness at this time, she touched her son's face, and said with a gentle expression, "By the way, didn't you want the palace maid by the emperor's side before, and the concubine also asked for you to come over?" Are you happy? As long as you want it, the mother concubine will help you beg, the mother concubine will not have a position in the future, and she will not fight for any holy favor, and the mother concubine will guard you. Huan Rong, you should respond to your mother's voice......"

Concubine De swayed, but found that her skirt was stained with a lot of sticky blood, and immediately looked at the emperor with a pale face and said, "Your Majesty, you save Huan Rong, our Huan Rong has shed a lot of blood, you quickly let people save him." ”
