Looking for Qin Zeng, the commander of Dongchang, to deal with this matter?

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they felt that the eldest princess's decision was not strange.

Qin Zeng, as a person who is very trusted by the emperor, has great ability, and is a eunuch, it is very appropriate to come to deal with this matter, and it is easy to convince people, and the situation of chaos will be greatly reduced.

Only Li Qingyi rolled his eyes in his heart, why did anyone who was in trouble have to go to his man to solve it......

While everyone was waiting, the eldest princess of Deqing summoned all the palace people in the Furong Hall to come and question.

Jade Comb and Linglong are the personal palace maids beside the nobles, so they are naturally the first to be asked in front of them.

Linglong was the palace maid who didn't know that she had dropped her shoes before, she was panicked, and her body was still trembling violently.

Hearing the question of the eldest princess of Deqing, her lips moved for a long time and she didn't speak, as if she couldn't find a voice.

The eldest princess was a little impatient, and reprimanded, "If you procrastinate and can't tell clearly, this palace will treat you as a suspect and put you in the criminal department for interrogation!"

Linglong was already frightened by the death of the good nobleman, and when she heard the eldest princess's scolding, she was even more paralyzed to the ground like a mess of mud, and she couldn't kneel anymore.

The jade comb on the side helped her and said, "Back to the eldest princess, Linglong is the first person to see the good nobleman have an accident, and she must be frightened."

No matter how gentle the eldest princess is, it is inevitable that she will get out of control when she encounters this kind of thing, how can she be in the mood to understand whether a maid is frightened, she snorted coldly and said, "Since this is the case, you will say it first!"

"Yes......"

Yucomb's face was also very bad, but he was calmer than Linglong.

She said, "When the good nobles came back from the feast, they said that they were tired, and they sent them out of the inner sanctum, leaving me and Linglong to keep watch in it. But since the noble man was pregnant, he was more trivial in eating, so he lay down and got up again in the blink of an eye and said that he wanted to eat walnut cheese."

When Yucomb said this, he paused, looked up at everyone slightly, and then said, "Because nobles often eat this on weekdays, the small kitchen will usually be prepared, and it won't take long to get it, so the slave didn't ask the little girls to get it, and went directly to the small kitchen."

"Yes...... In a short period of less than a cup of tea......

Jade Comb's narration stopped suddenly, the blood on her face faded instantly, and her lips trembled like dead leaves in the wind.

Everyone could feel that she was suppressing the fear in her heart, so they didn't rush her.

After a long pause, Jade Comb spoke again, "The sky was already a little dark, but the lantern under the porch had not yet been lit, and I approached from a distance with walnut cheese, and I saw something crawling out of the door of the inner sanctum. I was shocked into a cold sweat, and my steps froze in place. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the black shadow turned out to be exquisite!"

"I was so frightened that the box of walnut cheese in my hand fell to the ground with a crackling sound. The sound was especially loud in the empty palace. Linglong, who was crawling on the ground, seemed to be startled by the sound, so she leaned against the door and covered her ears and screamed. Then the maids and attendants in the Furong Hall came out to ask what had happened."

"But Linglong couldn't speak at all, I thought to myself that something had happened to my master, so I rushed into the house to see my master. Behold...... Noble her...... That's what it looks like now, lying in the room...... Blood was pouring all over the ground, but she seemed to have a breath of ...... at that time."

Yucomb didn't say any more, but everyone knew that even if there was still a breath, such an injury would not be saved.

Even if you go to Xuan Taiyi immediately, and wait for someone to come and go, the good nobles will already be out of breath.

Therefore, the eldest princess of Deqing did not ask her why she didn't announce the imperial doctor as soon as possible, but asked, "After that, you went to the banquet to make a confession?"

"Yes, after that, the slave and maid went to the Yuntai Hall to make a report."

The eldest princess's gaze fell on the jade comb for a long time, and then asked, "In other words, the good nobleman was killed, during the time when you went to get walnut cheese?" And Linglong is the only one in the hall to accompany the good noble?"

The jade comb nodded silently and looked at Linglong on the side

The other party still looked too frightened and couldn't come back to her senses, and she didn't realize that she was the biggest suspect in the case.

The eldest princess frowned and glanced at Linglong, looked at the other palace maids of the Furong Hall with a deep groan, and asked, "Where were you all at the time?" Didn't you hear a strange noise in the inner sanctum?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, they didn't dare to take the lead in speaking, so the eldest princess pointed to one of the older palace maids and asked, "You say."

The palace maid trembled a little, kowtowed and said, "Return, go back to the eldest princess, because the hour is not early, and the slave maid is not on duty tonight, so she plans to rest as soon as it gets dark, and she didn't hear any unusual noise...... I heard Linglong's screams before I went out to ask."

After hearing what the eldest princess said to her, she pointed to another chamberlain and said, "You say."

The chamberlain was pointed on the head, and could only bite the bullet and say, "The servant is on duty today, patrolling the palace, but he has not seen any suspicious people, but he ...... Before the incident, it seemed that I heard something falling and making a muffled "bang", but the sound was very small, like an illusion, so the slave didn't care, and then, after a while, it was the jade comb that said, the sound of crackling food boxes smashing down, and then the exquisite cry sounded......"...

Immediately afterward, the rest of the people also said a few words, but most of them were similar to what Fang Cai said.

The eldest princess frowned and looked at Linglong again, but the palace maid Ling Qiu came back and forth, interrupting the eldest princess's interrogation.

"The eldest princess, the slave has already led someone to search the Furong Hall inside and out, and no suspicious person has been found."

If there is a murder in Fanghua Palace, it is naturally not trivial, in case it is an assassin, he can quietly kill the noble person today, and he will be able to kill the eldest princess unknowingly tomorrow.

Therefore, the eldest princess stood up from her seat, paced back and forth a few steps, and said, "This matter must not be tolerated, you should immediately take someone to search the entire Fanghua Palace!" Don't ignore any corner!"

"Yes, the slave maid immediately asked people to search for it."

Li Qingyi listened to the eldest princess's question on the side, and paid attention to everyone.

Among the group of palace maids who knelt on the ground and were interrogated, Yucomb's words were clear, and they told the whole story from beginning to end, and the others were all east and west.

The eldest princess of Deqing looked at the jade comb and asked, "Are you the servant girl who has served since childhood by the side of the good noble?"

In the cold winter, Jade Comb knelt on the bluestone ground in the court, shrunk and stroked his arm, and replied: "Yes, the slave maid is a domestic slave in the Pan Yushi Mansion, and she has been serving by her master's side since she was a child. Linglong too, the two of us accompanied the master into the palace together."

Mrs. Tan, who had just woken up, heard Yucomb talk about her daughter's old affairs, and burst into a burst of grief-stricken crying, even if she covered her face, she could make everyone feel that kind of tragic and irrepressible emotion.

"So, you must be very familiar with the people around the nobles?"

The eldest princess of Deqing glanced at Linglong, whose expression almost collapsed, and asked Yucomb again, "What kind of person is Linglong?" Have you ever had a conflict with a good person?"

Yucomb glanced at Linglong beside her worriedly, and said, "The slave maid thinks that Linglong will not be a murderer, she is very timid on weekdays, she is honest, and there is nothing to conflict with her master. The master also treats us very well, after all, we have grown up with us since childhood."

The eldest princess of Deqing looked at the other palace maids and attendants, and they all nodded again and again. A younger palace maid also seemed to have a good relationship with Linglong, and said, "Yes, Sister Linglong has a good temper, and she is usually very down-to-earth, and she has never had a quarrel with anyone in the noble palace."

Tan listened from the sidelines, without any doubts, indicating that what Yucomb said was indeed true.

Everyone was silent, what good is it for a servant girl to kill her master without injustice or hatred?

After the emperor knew about it, it was not impossible to let them be buried with him in anger, it was really harmful and not beneficial.
