Chapter 48 Who is the murderer?
Cuicui's face was full of anger, and she said loudly, "Qingqing has never offended others, except for ......"
She was so spitting and spitting, which naturally aroused everyone's curiosity, and under the urging, she said with an open face, "Last night, the little princess didn't know why she insisted that Qingqing was a thief, stole the medicine of the little prince, and arrested her...... This is how early today ......"
"Ah...... It can't be that the little princess killed Qingqing, right......"
"That's right, the little princess is so fierce at first glance, always shouting and shouting to kill, I feel scared at a glance!"
The people immediately began to talk about it.
"By the way, what about the little princess? It can't be that you're still sleeping, right? Concubine Jiang sneered, "There is such a big thing in the house, can she still sleep peacefully?" It couldn't have been known for a long time that this was going to happen, right? ”
The meaning of Concubine Jiang's words is obvious, it is clear that Qingqing's death has something to do with Luo Yunshuang, and what her maids said before was also for this purpose.
She turned her gaze and landed on Pianpin, and said loudly, "Don't go and inform the little princess yet!" ”
Pian Pian was stunned, not knowing whether to tell the little princess what she couldn't find, and was hesitating, I don't know which maid whispered, "Didn't the little princess find it?" ”
Concubine Jiang was overjoyed when she heard this, "What? The little princess is gone? It can't be that he did something unsavory to hide, right? ”
It's really time for Luo Yunshuang to disappear! She was thinking about how to convict her of murder, so she gave her the opportunity to come......
"You are not allowed to slander our little princess!" Chu Chu was affected by Luo Yunshuang's personality, and he also had the strength to not be afraid of heaven and earth, when he was in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, although the Lou family and Luo Yunxiao always secretly stumbled Luo Yunshuang, but they didn't dare to blatantly disrespect Luo Yunshuang, where could Chu Chu stand someone who wronged Luo Yunshuang so much?
"Our little princess wouldn't do such a thing! Without evidence, you are not allowed to spew blood! ”
"Presumptuous! When does the master speak, when can a little maid interject at will? Concubine Jiang raised her eyebrows and said sharply, "I slandered your little princess? Hmph, do I need to slander her? If she hadn't done something wrong, how could she hide and not see anyone? Even if she hid, killing people paid for her life, did she think she could hide for the rest of her life? What a joke! ”
"Didn't our little princess hide?"
"What's not hiding?" Concubine Jiang was aggressive, "If you don't hide, you call your little princess out!" Let her come out, and we won't know if she's innocent? ”
Chu Chu was stunned, the little princess couldn't find it since the morning, where to call her out at this time? Concubine Jiang is clearly looking for fault!
Seeing that Chu Chu had nothing to say, Concubine Jiang was full of pride, "Didn't you say you were hiding?" Someone, the little princess is still in the mansion, hurry up and find her! ”
Concubine Jiang heard that Luo Yunshuang was missing early in the morning, and deliberately called the concierge to inquire, and the concierge said that she had not seen the shadow of the little princess at all, so she was very sure that Luo Yunshuang would definitely be in the palace.
Although I don't know what Luo Yunshuang is doing, I will find her out later...... Luo Yunshuang, you just wait to die!
Concubine Jiang was smug when she suddenly heard a crisp and bright voice coming, "What is the matter with Concubine Jiang who is so anxious to find me?" Do you want to invite me to dinner or pay me back? ”
"Little Princess!"
"Little Princess!"
Pian Pian and Chu Chu immediately greeted Luo Yunshuang happily when they heard Luo Yunshuang's voice, and hugged her arm one by one.
Pian Pian said, "Little princess, where have you been?" The slaves are worried to death! ”
Chu Chu raised his head defiantly and snorted at Concubine Jiang.
Luo Yunshuang soothed the hands of the two maids, and said crisply, "What are you worried about, can I still run?" ”
Concubine Jiang's face was very ugly, "Aren't you missing?" How did it end up here? ”
Luo Yunshuang looked surprised, "Missing? Who said I was missing? ”
"What happened?" While talking, the princess also came over, and as soon as she saw Luo Yunshuang, she said with concern, "Shuang'er, the maid said that she couldn't find you, are you okay?" ”
"Mother, I'm fine!" Luo Yunshuang personally helped the princess over, "I just slept in the room, I caught a thief last night and slept late." But Concubine Jiang said that I was missing, and she was asking someone to look for me! The palace is my home, why can I still disappear if I live in my own home? ”
"Okay, okay, Shuang'er is here, what are you doing? Concubine Jiang, you are too inconsiderate this time, how can you say that Shuang'er is missing without figuring it out? ”
was accused by the princess in front of her subordinates, Concubine Jiang's face was very ugly, she secretly gritted her teeth, and then said with a gentle and generous face, "Back to the princess, the concubine is in a hurry to find the little princess, because the little princess is related to a murder!" ”
"Homicide?" Qingqing's body had been blocked by the subordinates, and the princess didn't see it, and when she heard that there was a murder, her face immediately became serious, "Who died?" ”
The subordinates hurriedly got out of the way, and the princess stepped forward to take a closer look, but she didn't know the woman on the ground, frowned, and asked Concubine Jiang, "This is?" ”
All the affairs of the palace are in the hands of Concubine Jiang, not to mention that Qingqing is a second-class maid in Concubine Jiang's courtyard, and she usually doesn't come out much, and it is normal for the princess not to know her.
Without waiting for Concubine Jiang to speak, Luo Yunshuang said, "This woman Shuang'er knows, she is from the courtyard of Concubine Niang, her name is Qingqing, hey?" Concubine Niangniang, wasn't she still with you last night, how could this be? Ouch, what a human life! Concubine Niangniang, how did she die? ”
Everyone was still suspicious of Luo Yunshuang, and now that they heard this, they couldn't help but set their eyes on Concubine Jiang, it turned out that it was Concubine Jiang who was the last to be with Qingqing last night! She deliberately said those words just now, it seems that she was trying to misunderstand everyone!
Concubine Jiang naturally heard that Luo Yunshuang was drawing everyone's attention to her, and said with an aggrieved expression, "Little princess, what are you talking about?" Qingqing came back with me last night, and I was wondering how she died! I wonder what the little princess thinks about this? ”
"What can I think?" Luo Yunshuang waved her hand indifferently, "Maybe it made someone unhappy and killed her." ”
As she spoke, Luo Yunshuang's eyes rolled, and her face suddenly changed, and she pointed to Qingqing's corpse and shouted, "Look, did Qingqing's fingers move just now?" ”
Everyone hurriedly looked down, Concubine Jiang was so frightened that her face changed, and she hurriedly took a step back, "Don't talk nonsense, the doctor checked just now, Qingqing has been dead for a few hours, how can her hand still move?" ”
Looking at Concubine Jiang's panicked appearance, Luo Yunshuang sneered in her heart, but the expression on her face was extremely serious, "It's true, I really saw her fingers move!" He also pointed to the side concubine Niangniang......"
"Luo Yunshuang, stop me!" Concubine Jiang's frightened face turned white, "What is she pointing at me for!" ”
Concubine Jiang said, uneasily and quietly made a color to Mama Song beside her, those unsightly things were done by Mama Song herself, Mama Song understood, winked at her, and signaled that there was no problem, and Concubine Jiang was relieved.
"I don't know why?" Luo Yunshuang blinked innocently, "Maybe I feel that I have died unjustly, maybe I miss the strong master-servant relationship with the side concubine!" Anyway, this girl is also from the palace, and she is so young, it's a pity that she died, we must find out the cause of her death and bury her alive, what does the side concubine think? ”
Concubine Jiang nodded and agreed, "What the little princess said is very true, I think so too, I will send someone to thoroughly investigate who Qingqing contacted later last night, to see if I can find any clues." ”
"Don't worry, concubine," Luo Yunshuang said, "I have a way to quickly find out who killed Qingqing." ”
"Oh, Frost, what do you have to do?" The princess also asked with great interest.
Luo Yunshuang said, "When I was in Huyanbu, I once learned that when a person's blood coagulates when he dies, his pupils will imprint the shadow of the last person he sees, and the last person the deceased sees is usually the murderer, as long as we see whose shadow is printed in Qingqing's pupils, don't we know who killed her?" ”
"This ...... Is this true? It was the first time the princess had heard of such a thing, and asked in disbelief.
Concubine Jiang's face was a little ugly, "These are all false rumors, right?" If it's really that simple, why do you need someone to handle the case? Don't talk nonsense, let's see if there are any clues! ”
As he spoke, he began to distribute men.
Luo Yunshuang glanced at her suspiciously, "Concubine Niangniang, something that can be solved just by looking at it, why are you so scared?" Do you know who killed Qingqing, or are you afraid to see the shadow in Qingqing's eyes? ”
After speaking, she looked at Concubine Jiang with a very skeptical expression, "Concubine Niangniang can't be weak-hearted, right?" ”
When Mama Song heard this, she immediately said, "Little princess, no matter what you say, the side concubine Niangniang is also your elder, how can you talk like that?" Concubine Niangniang has been thinking about you, she was worried about whether you were missing just now, but how can you doubt her? Why should the side concubine be weak-hearted? She is so kind and never harms people, and if you want to say that she has a weak heart, she shouldn't be a side concubine! ”
"That's it!" Cuicui opened her mouth and said, "Our side concubine Niangniang has always been very good to the people below, this is something that Yingluo Academy can see!" ”
Hearing this, Concubine Jiang glanced at Luo Yunshuang proudly, and said very virtuously, "Okay, I know that the little princess doesn't know me, so she said this." ”
Luo Yunshuang smiled indifferently, "Even if I misunderstood the side concubine Niangniang!" Now let's take a look at whose shadow is in Qingqing's pupils, and everything will be understood. ”
With that, she walked towards Qingqing's corpse.
A trace of panic flashed on Concubine Jiang's face, she wasn't sure if the method Luo Yunshuang said was useful, but seeing her so confident and calm appearance, she was very worried in her heart, what if what she said was true? In case there is really any shadow in the dead girl's eyes, this matter is handled by Mama Song, isn't it directly involving her?
Thinking of this, she hurriedly glanced at Cuicui and glanced at Qingqing's corpse.
Cuicui nodded, and was about to speak, when suddenly a delicate voice next to her sounded, "Sister, this is not ...... That jade pendant of yours? ”
Everyone looked back and saw that Luo Yunxiao was accompanied by the maid and the warbler, and the weak willow helped the wind to come over, and as soon as they approached, they asked with a puzzled face.
Luo Yunxiao was secretly glad that God had given her a good opportunity to show favor to Concubine Jiang, when she returned to the door before, she had offended Concubine Jiang by not kneeling down to ask for peace, and was thinking about what opportunity to reconcile with Concubine Jiang, and the opportunity would be automatically sent to the door.
As soon as she approached just now, she happened to see Concubine Jiang glancing at Cuicui, and as soon as she glanced at the corpse on the ground, she understood what Concubine Jiang meant, so she spoke in place of Cuicui.
"I remember, it was given to the two of us by my father, one for each person, where, my sister's has always been wearing it on her body, and my sister must have carried it with her, right? How did it end up in this girl's hands...... Oh, it was given to her by her sister, right? However, how did my sister give the jade pendant given by my father to someone if I wanted to reward something, if my father knew, I am afraid he would be angry, right? ”
Luo Yunxiao has always played the role of a soft and weak person, and she has never been willing to speak to Luo Yunshuang in a slightly stronger tone, but this time in order to appease Concubine Jiang, she can be regarded as making an exception.
"What? The little princess's jade pendant? Concubine Jiang looked surprised, frowned and said to a rough envoy, "Quickly bring the jade pendant, ouch, I didn't look at it carefully just now, I actually ignored it, this has to be seen clearly, it can't be a mistake, right?" The little princess's jade pendant shouldn't be here! ”
Luo Yunxiao's appearance made Concubine Jiang very satisfied, if Cuicui said this, Cuicui was her person and a girl, and she naturally didn't speak much, but Luo Yunxiao was different, although she was just a side concubine, she was Luo Yunshuang's own sister, and her words were naturally very credible.
Unexpectedly, this Luo Yunxiao is really a usable person......
The rough mother-in-law took out the jade pendant that Qingqing was holding in her hand, and took it to Concubine Jiang with the handkerchief, and compared it with Luo Yunxiao's jade pendant, it was really a pair.
Concubine Jiang smiled proudly and said to her mother-in-law, "Show it to the princess and the little princess, this lesson must be clarified!" ”
There is no need to look at it carefully, as long as she glances at Luo Yunshuang, she believes that it is her jade pendant, the jade pendant she has always carried with her, Luo Yunxiao is right, it was given to her by her father, she has been putting it in the jewelry box on the dresser, but she didn't expect it to be here.
The two jade pendants are crescent-shaped, and together they are a circle, and it is obvious that they are a team, and the princess naturally saw it, she glanced at Luo Yunxiao in surprise, and frowned tightly.
Luo Yunshuang was expressionless, but she was very worried in her heart, of course she understood that this was Concubine Jiang's design to frame her, but the jade pendant was indeed hers, she couldn't rely on it at all, would the princess suspect her?
The princess is one of the few people that Luo Yunshuang trusts in the palace, and she really doesn't want to see her or trust her.
The princess glanced at Concubine Jiang with a serious expression, "It's too arbitrary to say that Shuang'er is a murderer with just a piece of jade pendant, I believe in Shuang'er, she can't do such a heart-wrenching thing!" Besides, this young girl was caught red-handed by Shuang'er last night and stolen in Jin'an Courtyard, and it is possible that she stole this jade pendant at that time, and this matter still has to be investigated. ”
"Isn't the princess a little biased towards the little princess when she talks like this?" Concubine Jiang said, "The concubine is not suspicious of the little princess, but this matter is related to human life after all, so you can't be hasty!" ”
"It's not that Concubine Ben is partial, apart from this jade pendant, what evidence might Concubine Jiang find to prove that Shuang'er killed someone? By the way, Shuang'er just said that the eyes of the deceased will leave the appearance of a murderer, so let's take a look at Qingqing's eyes! ”
"Princess, I don't think this method is appropriate, no one has verified it at all, who can guarantee that what the little princess said is true? I also checked it last night when Qingqing Club Yingluo Courtyard, she didn't take anything from Jin'an Courtyard at all, and besides, Qingqing was just sleepwalking, not stealing at all! ”
"In this case, we women don't have any ability, after all, this is a murder, let's report it to the official! I heard that Jingzhao Mansion Yin is very good at investigating the case, I believe that this case will be handed over to him to be able to find out very quickly, you know, even if the murderer is meticulous, he will leave clues, we can't see it, but Jingzhao Mansion Yin, who has many years of experience in handling cases, will definitely be able to find out! ”
Luo Yunshuang looked at Concubine Jiang and said with a smile.
"No way!" Concubine Jiang frowned, and hurriedly refused, of course she had heard of the name of Jingzhao Mansion Yin, and heard that even the emperor praised his ability to handle cases, how many difficult and big cases in the court were handed over to him, and he would soon be able to find out, if this matter was handed over to Jingzhao Mansion Yin to investigate, then what secrets were there?
"Concubine Jiang looks nervous?" Luo Yunshuang blinked, "Doesn't Concubine Jiang want to find out the cause of Qingqing's death as soon as possible?" She's your maid! Wouldn't you be too ruthless? It's chilling! ”
As he spoke, he shook his head with a look of regret.
Sure enough, the people present all lowered their heads, the rabbit died and the fox was sad, no one wanted to see Qingqing die and still be wronged, the master still didn't care so much.
Concubine Jiang gritted her teeth with hatred and forced a smile, "The little princess said that she was laughing, how could I not be willing to find out the cause of Qingqing's death?" She is my maid, and I naturally feel sorry for her. It's just that our palace is no better than ordinary people's homes, and the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, if it is known at this time, it will be detrimental to the reputation of the prince. ”
Concubine Jiang's words sounded quite stance, but Luo Yunshuang sneered very indifferently, "How much is fame worth?" Could it be that Qingqing, such a young girl, died inexplicably, and her life is not as valuable as her reputation? Human life is precious, everyone is raised by their parents, and no one's life can be cheap! Our prince is a hero on the battlefield, I believe he can understand the preciousness of human life better than anyone else, if he is here today, he will never ignore a girl's life because of a little fame! Besides, we Ning Wangfu respects every life, and outsiders will only praise us if they know it, how can it hinder the reputation of the prince? ”
