The sun is shining, the flowers are blooming, and the birds and insects are intertwined into a unique summer tune.

Such a bright scene, but the people present were furious in their hearts, staring at the people who were planted upside down in the vat.

Emperor Jingming's expression was gloomy, and he said word for word: "Get people out." ”

Several attendants immediately stepped forward and worked together to get the people out of the water tank and put them on the ground.

The people were wet, and the ground was soon covered with water.

Looking at that pale face, someone exclaimed, "Isn't this Gonggong Deng?" ”

Yu Jin stepped forward, leaned over to check it, and then nodded slightly to Emperor Jingming: "This person has a facial injury, although there is no blood stain because he is immersed in water, but the hem of the shoe is dripping with blood, so he was tracked down by Erniu to ......"

"So, this is the one who harmed the princess?" Emperor Jingming asked in a deep voice.

Yu Jin replied: "This is the person who spilled blood on the shore of Bibo Lake. ”

Such a watertight answer made Emperor Jingming a little appreciative of his surprise, and said in his heart that once his son encountered something, he was still very reliable and thoughtful, which was also rare.

Emperor Jingming's impression of Yu Jin was a little better, and he asked the two attendants who rushed to the lake at the beginning: "You saw the back of the murderer, can you be sure that it is this person?" ”

was questioned by the emperor by name, and the two chamberlains couldn't help but tremble.

The empress standing beside Emperor Jingming said softly: "If the emperor asks, you will answer truthfully." ”

One of the chamberlains said boldly: "The slave only saw the back, and could only roughly recognize the figure--"

Emperor Jingming nodded slightly, and immediately two palace attendants picked up the chamberlain lying on the ground and ordered him to turn his back to the two chamberlains.

"How?" Seeing that the two chamberlains stared at each other for a long time, the queen asked.

This time, she will find out the cunning person behind the scenes, and no one will want to fool the past.

One of the chamberlains replied, "It looks like ...... At that time, the slave maid glanced at it hurriedly, and the man was of medium size, thin, about the same as this man......"

The other chamberlain nodded in agreement.

Emperor Jingming's expression was cold.

Erniu followed the smell and chased here, and his body was on the same again, who else could it be that harmed Fuqing and Fourteen?

"Who is this Gonggong Deng?" Emperor Jingming asked with a calm face.

Pan Hai hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, Xiao Dengzi is in charge of tea in Chunhua Palace." ”

Emperor Jingming's eyes were heavy and he looked at Concubine Ning.

Being remembered by Pan Hai shows that this person is in charge. And if you are in charge of Chunhua Palace, can you still get rid of Concubine Ning?

Concubine Ning was extremely annoyed by Emperor Jingming's glance.

With her temper, she would have quarreled with the emperor a long time ago, but now is not the time to be temperamental.

Concubine Ning bent her knees at Emperor Jingming, and said with a stiff face: "It's true that Xiao Dengzi is a person from Chunhua Palace, but the concubine doesn't know anything about what happened today, please ask the emperor to investigate thoroughly." ”

"Of course I'll get to the bottom of it!" Emperor Jingming said coldly.

Again and again, until the death of the fourteenth princess, completely angered the good-natured emperor.

This time I can't let it go easily, even if it's Concubine Ning--

Emperor Jingming looked at Concubine Ning with a gloomy expression.

No matter who it is, he will not spare it!

Concubine Ning gritted her teeth.

She is really sitting at home, disaster comes from the sky, Xiao Dengzi usually looks honest and duty, how could this happen?

Seeing that Yu Jin was inspecting the corpse of Gonggong Deng, Emperor Jingming instructed Pan Hai: "You go and ask." ”

Pan Hai quickly summoned the people of Chunhua Palace and began to interrogate.

There are clear hierarchies in the palace, and even more so for palace people, those low-level palace people have rules when and where they are on errands, and there is no opportunity to move around at will.

And an inner servant like Gonggong Deng, who has a certain amount of authority, is much freer, and finding a proper excuse to run out once will not attract much attention.

Pan Hai quickly asked when Gonggong Deng went out, which coincided with the time of the accident of the two princesses.

At this point, it has been confirmed that Gonggong Deng is the murderer.

Yu Jin's voice sounded: "This person is more likely to commit suicide." ”

"How are you sure?" Emperor Jingming asked with a calm face.

Yu Jin pointed to Gonggong Deng's mouth and nose and explained: "My son checked his mouth and nose, and there was mushroom-like foam on his mouth and nose. Mr. Zhen told me that this situation showed that his head sank into the water tank when he was breathing. ”

"Someone else couldn't have pressed him in?" The queen couldn't help but ask.

Intuitively, she didn't think it was Concubine Ning's doing, but once the clue was interrupted in Xiao Lezi, the crime could only be attributed to Concubine Ning.

No one would believe that a little eunuch did something to the princess for personal reasons.

This situation, of course, was instructed by the master.

If Gonggong Deng was killed by him, he could follow the clues to investigate deeply.

"I just observed his head and body, except for some facial injuries, there are no obvious external injuries in other places, and there are no signs of struggle, which means that he has not been attacked by external forces."

Regarding herself, Concubine Ning's mind spun quickly, and she blurted out: "Can't it be that she was put into the water tank after being drugged and falling into a coma?" In this way, he sank into the tank alive, and there would be no external injuries or signs of struggle on his body. ”

The queen's eyes when she looked at Concubine Ning suddenly became subtle.

That's how Fuqing was pushed into Bibo Lake.

Yu Jin bowed: "I can't rule out this possibility, which requires a doctor who is proficient in poisons to check it." But I'm more inclined to believe that he is suicidal. ”

"Why?" Emperor Jingming asked busily.

Facing many curious eyes, Yu Jin said calmly: "In most cases, it is unlikely that an adult man will be stunned by drugs in an instant without any struggle. ”

Although some of them are missing, the physical strength of the chamberlain is still not comparable to that of most women.

"Imperial Physician Chen--" Emperor Jingming shouted.

An old lady walked over with a hard head, took out silver needles and other items from the medicine box and began to examine the corpse, but he made up his mind to find an opportunity to return to his hometown.

It is not enough to serve the nobles carefully, but also to touch the corpses, and the days are simply unbearable.

After a long while, Imperial Physician Chen bowed his hand to Emperor Jingming: "Back to the emperor, this person has no obvious poison reaction. ”

There are thousands of poisons in the world, and there may be no abnormalities after causing death, then there is nothing he can do.

At this time, it is almost certain that Gonggong Deng committed suicide.

Pan Hai walked out of the room for special inquiries and bowed his hand to Emperor Jingming: "Your Majesty, I found out two things. ”

"Say!"

Pan Hai glanced at Concubine Ning, lowered his eyes and said, "Four years ago, Concubine Ning had a conflict with Chen Meiren--"

Concubine Ning's face changed slightly, and she said angrily: "A little beauty, she is already dead again, will this palace seek revenge on her daughter because of a little Chen sesame rotten grain?" Even if it's really revenge, what does it have to do with Princess Fuqing? Hongu's brain hasn't been caught by the door yet! ”

"What about the second thing?" Emperor Jingming did not comment on Concubine Ning's words, and continued to ask Pan Hai.

Pan Hai hesitated for a moment and said, "The second thing is related to Concubine Xian. ”
