Chapter 215: Qian'er dies
Wang Gonggong shouted in surprise, always feeling that he had found the real murderer.
"This ...... The slave remembered that Qian'er said that she was not feeling well today, so she didn't go out of the room for a day, and it seemed that she hadn't even eaten lunch. ”
Peony had this memory, tilted her head and thought for a while, before speaking slowly.
"Which house does she live in?"
Wang Gonggong instantly became excited and followed Peony to Qian'er's room.
But the room was very messy, everything was messed up on the floor, and I don't know if it was because she was gone, or because she had just rummaged through it.
"Where's she?" The prince searched the entire room but did not find a single figure, and immediately turned his head and stared at Peony viciously.
finally found a suspicious person, but the person was gone, so how did he go to the emperor to explain?
"The slave doesn't know......" Peony was about to cry in fright, but she didn't dare to cry, so she could only hold back her tears, and her voice trembled.
"What's the use of you, you can't even look at yourself, you live together every day on weekdays, why don't you know her little actions!"
The prince hated it so much, but he also knew that now was not the time to punish these people, so he could only hurry back to the emperor's side and report the progress to the emperor.
"Dig three feet into the ground and find her for me, I want to see people alive, and corpses when I die, I don't believe that a living person can get rid of so much attention and run outside!"
There was a clear suppression of anger in the Emperor's voice, but it did not explode.
The prince didn't dare to say anything, so he could only nod his head and take the palace guards to find someone.
In the end, they searched all the way to the most remote palace of the palace and found Qian'er in the dry well.
"Who are you? How did you suddenly break into here? Jiang Qingqing was taken aback by this sudden change, trembling on the wooden strips that had been ground to smoothness, looking at the menacing person in front of him.
"Who are you?"
As he spoke, the prince looked the old woman in front of him up and down, and he really couldn't figure out her identity.
This can't be blamed on him, he entered the palace very late, and Jiang Qingqing was deliberately concealed by the emperor, he just wanted to know, but he had no way of knowing.
"I am the concubine of the first emperor," Jiang Qingqing frowned, and when he said this, he was not very confident.
After all, she was ......
Jiang Qingqing thought of what happened to him back then, and his eyes couldn't help but flash.
But this made the princess think that he had found a loophole in her words.
"The concubine of the first emperor has long been dismissed by the current saint, where did you come from? In my opinion, you are very suspicious, come and bring him to the emperor for me!" ”
The words of the prince still have some weight here, and as soon as his words fell, the two guards behind him hurriedly stepped forward to hold Jiang Qingqing, and regardless of her shouting, they took her directly to the emperor's side.
"Who are you?"
The emperor looked at Jiang Qingqing and didn't immediately remember her identity.
"Concubine body......" Jiang Qingqing was just about to speak, but he instantly realized that he was no longer the emperor's concubine, so he could only be stunned in place.
"Concubine?"
Gonggong Chen didn't miss the two words she spoke, and looked at her carefully for a long time before he suddenly remembered her identity, and hurriedly leaned into the emperor's ear and whispered an introduction.
"It turned out to be you," the emperor remembered smoothly under the advice of Gonggong Chen, but there was not much disgust in his eyes.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that someone is making a ghost, but the arrow is on the bow, and the first emperor has to send it, so it will be to this point.
This is also the reason why Jiang Qingqing was not executed after he ascended the throne.
But...... How could she, an old woman who had been forgotten all the time, suddenly have something to do with such a thing?
"Sinners don't know what this matter is," Jiang Qingqing saw that the emperor remembered, a wry smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he bowed and bowed.
"Come on," the emperor glanced at the prince who was kneeling next to Jiang Qingqing, and said with a frown.
"Yes," the prince hurriedly waved his hand and began to tell what had happened.
Jiang Qingqing didn't have much expression on his face when he first listened, but the more he heard it, the more shocked he became.
"How is this possible? Sinners rarely communicate with other people, how can they help people poison the emperor! ”
Jiang Qingqing's chest rose and fell excitedly, eager to explain it to the emperor.
This is simply nothing, she has been living in the palace for so many years, and the old people have passed away almost one by one, how can the struggle of the previous dynasty be related to her?
"And have you seen any strange people lately?" The emperor was not in a hurry, but just changed his posture and looked at Jiang Qingqing with a serious face.
Jiang Qingqing had no reason to poison him, and Jiang Qingqing didn't have the opportunity and ability, so there must be someone else who poisoned him, but since the things were found there, Jiang Qingqing might be impressed.
This......
Jiang Qingqing searched carefully in his mind, but he didn't find any clues.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to deny it, she suddenly remembered someone.
Cheng Shuiyao.
Jiang Qingqing's expression changed slightly, but she didn't want Cheng Shuiyao to be involved in this matter, so she didn't plan to confess her at all, but just spoke according to her initial thoughts, "I don't move around often on weekdays, and I only go out of the house a handful of times, so I don't know if anyone has been there." ”
"What you said is true?"
The Emperor frowned, always feeling that what she said was not quite right.
"Let's remind you, there are more guards in the palace, there are always people who know the situation on your side, if you lie here, you can ......"
Gonggong Chen spoke slowly, obviously threatening, but in fact it was a reminder.
Jiang Qingqing had helped him, and he was willing to give Jiang Qingqing a chance.
This......
Jiang Qingqing pursed her lips and began to hesitate whether her idea was right or not.
Cheng Shuiyao had no reason to poison the emperor at all, so she must not have done the poisoning, and she concealed her name, which would make her very passive.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qingqing raised his head and said hesitantly, "Recently, there was indeed a person who went to the sinner, and the sinner took the initiative to invite him. ”
"Who is it?"
The emperor doesn't care about how this person went at all, he only cares about who this person is.
"Cheng Shuiyao."
Jiang Qingqing sighed and slowly said three words.
The words fell, and the audience was instantly silent.
Gonggong Chen cautiously tilted his head to look at the emperor's face, and didn't even dare to speak for a while.
He didn't expect that these things could be related to Cheng Shuiyao, if he knew this, he wouldn't have reminded Jiang Qingqing.
