Chapter Forty-Eight: The Strange Affair of the Palace
The Mansion of the King of Xunche
After returning from the princess, the prince did not let her out of the garden gate for a few days, saying that there were wolves in the house without ropes.
I'm afraid that she will go out to swagger through the market and be swallowed by wolves.......
"Xin'er, has the prince slept?" Si Yanyin was depressed on the tea table.
"Sleep? No, the prince is still in the study! It's been all morning......"
"Isn't he taking a nap?"
"Who do you ask? When he was studying, only you could enter the study....... "Xin'er's helpless stall hand:
"Otherwise, you go in and take a look, and by the way, I will greet when the prince is going to rest, and I can make the bed for him?"
"Don't go, love to sleep or not!" Si Yanyin rolled her eyelids, not wanting to see his cunning look.
"What? Quarreled? I see that since you came back from the princess, you have been dry. ”
"I'm not dry, the prince won't let me go out, I'm annoyed!"
"Oh, auntie, isn't that also for your own good, in case you go out and turn a corner and bump into the eldest son, how can you get out?" Xin'er sat down beside her.
"The princess has agreed, and in the future, I will be allowed to stay in the Yuyuan and no longer have to pay attention to the affairs of the eldest prince." Si Yanyin explained.
"Miss, you don't know our eldest son too well, that Zhan Taixian, how can you be such a good master!" Xin'er shook her head.
"What? In addition to the fact that Da Shizi is not very bright, I think people are okay......."
"Hehe, it can be, Dashizi! Although he is a little more rampant, but he doesn't seem to have any city government to go straight, you say that the person who has a temper written on his face,
What can I hide in my heart? However, the arrogance of the eldest prince is purely connived at by the prince and princess. ”
"Because he is the son of the great world, why he is so pampered?"
"It's not all, it is said that the princess had a difficult birth when she gave birth to a big child, and the baby was out of breath when she was born.
Only then did he pick up a life, and the prince and princess lost and regained their beloved son, which was naturally held on the tip of their hearts, and over time, the eldest son became more and more lawless! ”
"National teacher? Do you mean that the national teacher who knows the destiny of heaven and knows Shoulu knows himself? Si Yanyin asked.
"That's right, it's Wen Guoshi, when Wen Guoshi was young, he was a warlock who walked the rivers and lakes, and at that time he was already a household name in the royal city of Xunche Kingdom!" Xun'er replied, "But that's not the point, the point is,
What I'm going to talk about next...... Maybe it will change your impression of Dashizi......"
"What's next? What's the matter? Si Yanyin picked up the teacup, I don't know what palace secrets this girl is going to talk about.
"Listening to the maid next to Concubine Yu, when the eldest prince was fifteen years old, he fell in love with the big girl next to Concubine Yu, as if she was called Ji Cheng, but she didn't want to follow.
But Concubine Yu didn't want to offend the eldest prince, so she gave the maid to the prince, and the result was ......" Speaking of this, Xin'er pretended to cover her mouth mysteriously.
"The result? The result? Si Yanyin poked her head curiously, what kind of thing is this girl selling.
"Alas! As a result, the day after the maid named Ji Cheng was transferred to Zhenglong Garden, she disappeared! ”
"Missing?" Si Yanyin asked suspiciously, "I'm afraid I didn't escape from the house at night, right?" ”
"At first, everyone thought so, Concubine Yu was also implicated and grounded for a month!" Xin'er pouted: "The result......"
"And what happened? Say it quickly! Si Yanyin really wanted a teacup to be buttoned into her bun.
"As a result, at the beginning of spring the next year, the ice and snow melted in the yard, and under the pear tree in the garden, I found the clothes of the concubine."
"Clothes?"
"In that pile of clothes, Ji Ming's stumps and broken arms are wrapped!"
"What? Remnant...... A severed limb? Si Yanyin's eyes were about to fall into the teacup.
"Well, only the human head is missing, only the limbs and body are left, and the death is extremely miserable!" Xin'er sighed embarrassedly, thinking that when she first heard about it, she had the same reaction as Si Yanyin.
"Really? That...... Did you investigate it later? Si Yanyin raised her chin that was about to dislocate.
"It is rumored that there is no reason for the investigation, and the great prince also said that he didn't know about it at all, and in the end it was over!"
"Nothing? That's a human life! Si Yanyin was a little angry.
"Human life is human life, this ...... This can't catch the murderer and has no clue, and the one who died was an inconsequential maid, so send some money to her relatives' house, and it will pass. ”
"Why can you say this big thing so easily..... This person died on the second day of going to Zhenglong Garden, and it would be unreasonable to say that this matter had nothing to do with the great prince! ”
Si Yanyin only felt a chill on her back, and remembered that Zhan Taixian had asked her to go to his side several times to be a personal maid, and she was shocked again.
If he really succeeds, will he also become the next concubine? No, no, after all, she is a princess, and no matter how strong the car country bullies the weak, he will not treat her like this.
"Hello? What's wrong? Scared? Xin'er looked at Si Yanyin's eyes and didn't know what she was staring at: "When I heard it for the first time, I was also scared!" I had nightmares at night! ”
"Stop..... Stop! Stop! Si Yanyin suddenly came back to her senses: "Don't say it, don't mention a word related to this!" ”
She covered her ears to try to dispel the inexplicable fear: "I don't want to have nightmares at night!" ”
"Hahaha, I didn't think you were less daring than me!" Xin'er looked at her and laughed as if she was facing a great enemy.
"Regardless of whether this matter is a rumor or a fact, I will never let myself enter Zhenglong Garden!" Si Yanyin secretly decided that even if she wanted to die, she would die in this honor courtyard, pestering the fox every day.
