The Queen Mother seemed to anticipate Emperor Jingming's doubts, and smiled faintly: "The person who just came back happened to see King Xiang at the gate of the palace and talked to the mourning family." ”

Emperor Jingming was stunned.

The people in Cining Palace occasionally go out of the palace to donate sesame oil money to the royal temple for the Queen Mother, and they happened to meet today.

The Queen Mother persuaded earnestly: "Young people will inevitably make mistakes, not to mention that if they are drunk, the emperor should not worry about the King of Xiang." ”

Emperor Jingming stared at the wrinkles at the corners of the Queen Mother's eyes, and opened his mouth to say nothing.

Rong Yang's death is still hidden from the Queen Mother, if the eighth child kills Cui Mingyue is told, Rong Yang's death may not be hidden.

Emperor Jingming was thinking like this, so he heard the Queen Mother sigh and said: "Think about the child of King Xiang, the mourning family will think of Mingyue, if Mingyue had kept her duty, she would have become the granddaughter-in-law of the mourning family, and now she even has a great-grandson ......"

"Yes—" Emperor Jingming smiled dryly, and his heart was beating with horror.

The Queen Mother stopped turning her rosary, and her expression looked a little sad: "I don't know what happened to Rongyang now, she has become a concubine, and her daughter has disappeared again, I'm afraid it's not good, right?" ”

Emperor Jingming was even more nervous, and he didn't dare to say anything.

Seeing that Emperor Jingming was silent, the Queen Mother laughed at herself: "The mourning family should not be difficult for the emperor, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, Rongyang has made a mistake, and she deserves to be punished, but after all, she was brought up by the mourning family, and she hasn't seen her for a long time, and she misses it a little in her heart......"

Emperor Jingming's palms began to sweat.

He sincerely respects the Queen Mother, and he really can't imagine that the Queen Mother will be hit if she learns about Rong Yang's death. For people of the Queen Mother's age, once she is hit, she is likely to be ill -

The more Emperor Jingming thought about it, the more determined he became, and continued to hide the idea of the Queen Mother.

"Okay, the mourning family is old, just nag a few words, the emperor is busy."

Emperor Jingming almost couldn't wait to get up: "That son will go first, and then come back to see the queen mother." ”

The Queen Mother nodded slowly, waited for Emperor Jingming to leave, reached out and picked up the tea cup on the small table, opened the tea lid and blew the tea leaves floating on the water.

Before the Qingming Festival arrived, Cining Palace had already changed to new tea.

Tea before the Ming Dynasty is as expensive as gold, and all the objects that enter the Cining Palace are naturally the best.

The queen looked expressionlessly at the buds and leaves in the cup, and the roots were clearly erected, and she squeezed the teacup slightly hard.

Emperor Jingming, who left Cining Palace and walked back, felt the wind on the soles of his feet, as if there was a tiger chasing after him, and when he was about to walk to the imperial study, he heard a dog barking and a cat barking, followed by the unique sharp barking of the inner servant.

Emperor Jingming paused, and couldn't help frowning.

He was already in a bad mood, and he only left for such a short time, so what's wrong?

Pan Hai saw that Emperor Jingming's expression was wrong, and rushed to the imperial study, and scolded in his mouth: "Xiao Lezi, are you doing death?" ”

When he rushed to the door of the imperial study to see the scene inside, the majesty of the eunuch Bingbi suddenly stopped, and he was only stunned.

Emperor Jingming set aside Pan Hai and finally saw the scene in the house: he saw a fat cat struggling in the pile of folds on the dragon case, and from time to time he got a fold to the ground.

Emperor Jingming couldn't help but fall back in anger, and said angrily: "What is this for? ”

Xiao Lezi was dumbfounded, and hurriedly kowtowed to Emperor Jingming with the song.

Pan Hai kicked Xiao Lezi and said angrily: "The emperor asked you!" ”

Xiao Lezi said with a pale face: "Not long after the emperor left, Jixiang and General Xiaotian fought, and the slave maid couldn't stop it——"

"Rubbish!" The good-tempered Emperor Jingming scolded angrily, take a look at the white cat, and then look at the big dog, and he was not sure which one was better to criticize first.

Jixiang didn't wait for Emperor Jingming to speak, he pounced, raised his head and meowed at his master.

Emperor Jing Ming smiled stiffly, and the anger at his fat cat disappeared immediately.

The auspiciousness that never paid attention to him actually called him!

After the excitement, Emperor Jingming didn't have the mind to worry about Erniu, rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Take Erniu and Jixiang out first." ”

A cat and a dog were asked away, and the chaotic study finally returned to quiet.

Emperor Jingming looked at Zhen Shicheng.

Zhen Shicheng is a little old man who even takes care of his beard seriously, and he is most unaccustomed to this kind of cat and dog scuffle, seeing that the emperor is finally back, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the case of Miss Cui's disappearance has been closed, if there is no other order, Weichen will retire first." ”

Emperor Jingming ignored Zhen Shicheng's words, and asked in a deep tone: "Zhen Aiqing, how do you think the King of Xiang should be convicted?" ”

Zhen Shicheng: "......" He is only interested in judging cases, and the princes don't want to get involved in the fight at all.

The jade pendant found from the well that could sit on the identity of the corpse actually aroused his suspicions.

The bones are only the inner clothes, and the rest of the clothes and ornaments have been removed, if it is possible to say that you forgot to take off the earrings, it is a little unreasonable for the jade pendant to forget to take it away.

Zhen Shicheng speculated that the jade pendant was quietly thrown into the well by the person who saw this scene, in order to one day reveal the truth of the case.

Thinking about Erniu, the hero who found the bones today, it is not difficult to guess who that person is.

Of course, these are just speculations, and they are beneficial to solving the case, Zhen Shicheng will not be full of food and support to investigate deeply.

"Weichen doesn't dare to put his beak, the king of Xiang is the prince, and if he makes a mistake, he will be executed by the emperor and the Zongren Mansion." Zhen Shicheng calmly kicked the ball back.

He also wants to sit in the seat of Shuntian Mansion Yin for a long time to judge the case, and he won't say what he shouldn't say.

Emperor Jingming looked at Yu Jin and the others again, and all those who were swept by the sight lowered their eyes to reduce their sense of existence as much as possible.

Emperor Jingming stood beside the messy dragon case and fell into deep thought.

At the beginning, Rongyang's murder of the mother of the seventh daughter-in-law was exposed, and he demoted Rongyang to a concubine on the grounds that the prince had committed the same crime as the common people, and now the eighth child has made the same mistake, and it is Rongyang's daughter who is harmed.

When Emperor Jingming thought of this, his eyes were cold, and he said in a dumb voice: "Pan Hai-"

Pan Hai's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "The slave is here." ”

"Spread my will, the king of Xiang lost his morality after drinking at the queen mother's birthday banquet, and found that he murdered his aunt and cousin, and he was guilty of no virtue, and the evidence is conclusive, so he will take away the prince of the county from now on and move to live in the garden......"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed immediately, and King Lu gasped and covered his mouth.

Did he hear it wrong, the old eight is not even the king of the county anymore?

This, this is simply an unexpected surprise!

When Emperor Jingming heard the movement, his cold gaze fell on King Lu's face: "What, do you have an opinion?" ”

King Lu hurriedly lowered his head: "Father's forgiveness, my son suddenly heard the disposition of the eighth brother, and he was frightened for a while, and I will definitely take this as a warning in the future, so as not to make my father angry!" ”

Other princes: "......" Lao Wu is really extraordinary.
