Chapter 64: The Truth Comes Out
"Princess!" Bazi ran to the room and saw Dina lying on the floor.
She tried to run in, but was stopped by the guards: "No one is allowed to approach here." ”
"This is my princess." Bazi ran over, but was stopped by the guards.
Han Lingzheng turned his head when he heard Baqi's words, her words had a foreign accent, but he could hear the princess sentence clearly. He said, "Bring her here." ”
When Bazi entered the house, the door was shut. She watched Han Lingzheng walk towards her, and all her dissatisfaction was vented: "My princess died in your Handing Kingdom, and the Handing Kingdom must give You Yiguo an explanation in this matter." ”
Han Lingzheng frowned: "What did you say?" Princess You Yiguo? ”
"That's right! Lily is the princess of You Yiguo, she just admires you, and has never had a bad heart, why would anyone kill her? The woman cried hysterically. Han Lingzheng commanded his subordinates beside him, and the woman was stuffed with a handkerchief and couldn't make any sound.
Han Lingzheng walked over and said, "I will definitely find out about Lily's matter, but I don't know that she is a princess." Girl, do you know that this will affect the relationship between the two countries? If there is a dispute between the two countries, it is the people who suffer. Handing and You Yi have always been friendly neighbors, and I hope the girl understands. ”
"Hmm...... Hmm...... "The woman tried to say something, but she was taken down.
"Inquire about all the people in the Hundred Flower Temple, all the people that Lily Girl has seen today, and the things she has touched." Han Lingzheng looked at the cold corpse on the ground, and felt pain in his heart, this woman has a great future, but she came to Handing Country for him, she just showed him the way when he was confused, who would harm this innocent woman.
"His Royal Highness the Prince." Qingge on the side shouted at him. "What now?"
"Everything will be done according to the yamen, but I will continue to supervise this matter." After finishing speaking, Han Lingzheng saw a box of rouge on the ground in his spare eyes, he walked over to pick it up, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and the smell of lilies spread. Someone gave it to her, and the Lily Girl, though known as the name of the flower, did not like this kind of fragrant rouge, and she only applied a touch of jasmine rouge. He handed the rouge to Qingge: "Go and check where this rouge came from, seeing that this box is so exquisite, it must not be something that ordinary women can afford." ”
"Yes!" Qingge took the rouge and exited the house.
After dealing with the Hundred Flowers Courtyard, Han Lingzheng came to the Yamen, who was so bold that he dared to commit a crime in the imperial city.
Han Lingzheng walked into the mortuary room, and an official hurriedly trotted in: "See His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Get up, can you find out the cause of death?"
"If you go back to His Royal Highness the Prince, Miss Lily was poisoned and died."
"What's poison?"
"There is a shallow wound on the hand of the Lily Girl, it should be that someone has smeared venom on the knife edge, and the poison is called 'Seeing Blood Seal', as long as there is a little wound, it can kill people." The officer replied cautiously.
"This palace knows, this case will be handed over to you, but all the evidence and physical evidence will be handed over to me, step down." Han Lingzheng waved his hand and walked out of the mortuary, "Bury the lily girl." ”
"Yes." Watching the prince walk out, the official pulled up his cuffs and wiped the cold sweat on his head, what did this lily girl come about, she actually alarmed the prince. Isn't it normal for a few people to die in this kind of fireworks land, how could the prince personally supervise it this time. It is said that the big man came to visit Peng Shengshi, but at this time, of course, he hoped that no one would come, wasn't there a maid in the prison, and she was charged with poisoning her master, and the case was naturally over. However, what did the prince's last sentence mean, 'The case will be handed over to you, and the human and material evidence will be handed over to me.' He patted his head, and that was what he meant.
The prince stood in front of the East Palace, he had not returned for a few days, it was time to go to see Fei Lixiang, he walked into the Qianqiu Palace, and saw Fei Lixiang pouring tea in the courtyard, she saw his hand shake, and almost took off the teapot.
"Xiang'er, just let your subordinates do these things." Han Lingzheng strode over and held her hand.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for concubines." Fei Lixiang stabilized her panicked heart and bowed forward.
"Get up, Xiang'er, I've been busy with official business these days, and I've snubbed you."
"Where, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is busy with major affairs, and naturally state affairs are more important." Concubine Lixiang sneered secretly, the prince's so-called official business was to go to the Baihua Courtyard, and now that the slut is dead, he knows that he is still the prince of the East Palace.
"Xiang'er, ...... in the future"
"My subordinates see His Royal Highness the Prince, the Crown Princess." Qingge broke in in a hurry, but saw Han Lingzheng hugging Fei Lixiang. He saluted knowingly: "My subordinates will come back later." ”
"Let's go." Han Lingzheng stopped Qingge, he let go of Fei Lixiang, and said to her, "I'll come to see you later." ”
Qingge saluted the crown princess before leaving, and there was something clear in her eyes, which made her a little flustered.
After they left, Fei Lixiang called Ling'er and said, "Do you have any flaws?" ”
"Back to the crown princess, no." Ling'er's eyes were rolling.
"That's fine, I always feel like my eyelids are jumping today, and I always feel like something is going to happen." Fei Lixiang rubbed her eyebrows, and closed her eyes with her head with a pestle.
Inside the side hall......
"Qingge, what can you find out?" Han Lingzheng asked.
"Your Highness, this matter ......" Qingge was a little uncomfortable today.
Han Lingzheng turned to look at him and said, "Come on, when did you become squirming?" ”
"Your Highness, I'm afraid this matter has something to do with the crown princess." Qing Ge lowered his head, not daring to look at Han Lingzheng.
"How can this matter be related to the crown princess?" Han Lingzheng looked at Qing Ge in disbelief and said, "Say it quickly." ”
"Your Royal Highness, the rouge in Lily's hand was bought from a shop called 'Chunlin Shop', and only her family sold this rouge in the whole imperial city, and this box of rouge was bought by Ling'er, the personal maid of the crown princess, and the shopkeeper showed me their account book."
"But even if Ling'er bought it, it can't be concluded that this matter is related to the crown princess."
The shopkeeper said that the box of rouge was indeed the box that Ling'er bought. There is a crack in this rouge box, which was discovered by a customer before and taken to his store to change. There are few people who buy this kind of rouge, and the shopkeeper doesn't remember it, but today Miss Ling'er went to buy it, and he sold the box to her. Qing Ge observed Han Lingzheng's reaction, and his face really got darker and darker.
"But what else?"
"Someone saw Miss Ling'er in Baihuayuan today."
"The crown princess has always been kind-hearted, how could she do such a thing." Han Lingzheng was a little difficult to accept this matter, "You and I went to search the princess's bedroom." ”
"Your Highness, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate." Qingge looked at Han Lingzheng and said: "The crown princess is the eldest lady of the concubine family, and the concubine is an important minister in the court, and her brother has a deep friendship with His Royal Highness. ”
"Yes, although she is the princess of You Yiguo, in the eyes of everyone, she is just a Qinglou woman, for the sake of a Qinglou woman, it is really inappropriate to offend the crown princess, if nothing is found, wouldn't it be difficult to ride a tiger." Han Lingzheng took out Qing Ge's sword and said: "There is an assassin, search the princess's bedroom, if it is really her, she will not deal with it so cleanly." Lily's case Yamen has been closed, and Lily is not good to the maid, so the maid has long hated the master, so she killed her. This is just an excuse to the outside world, in order to avoid disputes between the two countries, but I must find out the truth, which can be regarded as a reward for her. ”
"Yes!" Qingge shouted: "There are assassins, protect the crown princess, His Royal Highness the prince!" ”
The guards hurriedly gathered and said, "Your Highness! ”
"Why are you still stunned?" Han Lingzheng shouted, "The assassin ran to the crown princess's bedroom. ”
"Yes! Protect the crown princess. The guard shouted, and then a large group of people surrounded Fei Lixiang's dormitory.
Fei Lixiang was sitting in the house, and she heard the noise outside, she opened the door and was pulled into her arms by Han Lingzheng, "Xiang'er, there are assassins, have you seen them?" ”
"Nope." Fei Lixiang's eyes were dazed, which one is this singing, the East Palace is heavily guarded, and flies can't fly in on weekdays, how can there be assassins today.
"Xiang'er, don't panic." Han Lingzheng raised his sword and said to the guards: "Search for me, you can't let go of every place, especially under the bed and in the cabinet!" ”
"Your Highness, the concubine has been in the palace and has not seen the assassin." The uneasiness in Fei Lixiang's heart became stronger and stronger. "The palace of the concubine does not need to be searched."
"I don't have to worry until I search it." Han Lingzheng hugged Concubine Lixiang tightly. Xiang'er, I have decided to hold the hand of your son and grow old with your son, don't let me down.
"Tell Your Highness, no assassin has been found." After searching around, the guards didn't even see the shadow of a mosquito, and there were no assassins anywhere. Qingge found a small bottle in the cabinet and a dagger.
"Your Highness, I found it." Qing Ge leaned into Han Lingzheng's ear and said.
"Since there are no assassins, then step down, you must add guards, if you let the crown princess be frightened, this palace will not spare you." Han Lingzheng said fiercely. "Go down, Qingge stay."
"Yes!" The well-trained guards lined up and left the dormitory.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, what else is the matter?" Fei Lixiang took Han Lingzheng's hand and said.
Han Lingzheng shook off her hand, closed the door, and said to Qing Ge, "Take it out." ”
"Yes." Qing Ge walked to the side of the closet, lifted his clothes, took out a dagger and a small bottle, and handed them to Han Lingzheng.
"Crown Princess, what is this?" Han Lingzheng put things on the table.
Fei Lixiang panicked when she saw it, shouldn't Ling'er deal with these things, how could they be in her closet. "The concubine doesn't know."
"I don't know? Crown Princess, I always thought that you were compassionate and kind-hearted, but I didn't expect it to be pretended. Han Lingzheng looked at Fei Lixiang and said.
"Your Highness, what do you mean by this? The concubine really doesn't know what this is, the concubine has never seen it, and someone must have framed her. ”
"What about Ling'er? Call Ling'er over. Han Lingzheng didn't answer Fei Lixiang's words, and said to Qing Ge.
"Slaves and maids see His Royal Highness the Prince, the Crown Princess." Ling'er knelt on the ground as soon as she entered the house, she trembled and was scared like a mouse in a bottle.
"Ling'er! When the prince asks you, you must tell the truth. Qingge said sharply.
"Ling'er says everything, Ling'er says everything." Ling'er looked up at Fei Lixiang, her eyes were full of indebtedness and helplessness.
