Chapter 162: The Strange Wei Mansion?
When Taifu Qing Wei Zhonglin heard this, he was so angry that he fainted on the spot.
The ladies outside the hall were all shocked, and they were all frightened and scattered.
A few of them were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they couldn't walk a step and could only lie on the steps and climb up, and a few of them ran back to the hall before they vomited again and again.
Although the people in the hall didn't know exactly what happened, they could guess seven or eight points.
Emperor Jing said solemnly: "Hurry up and send the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat Wei Tai Fuqing!" Kou Huai, go and see for yourself what happened?"
Kou Huai had to be ordered to go, and everyone present, except for those little ladies, all looked at Kou Huai, eager to grow their eyes on him, so that they could see the situation outside.
Human curiosity about the unknown is an innate instinct.
Zhan Xinglan and Fu Xuanlin were no exception, watching Kou Huai's every move.
But they're more worried.
Kou Huai stepped out of the threshold and leaned over to look down.
There were sixty steps, and there was a red trail of blood on each step from the middle section.
On the last step, there was a woman with her hair and clothes scattered, covered in blood, and her head and body almost bent in half.
Her death was extremely tragic and terrifying, and even Kou Huai, who had experienced countless winds and waves, couldn't help but be frightened.
Kou Huai courageously walked down the steps and gradually disappeared from the sight of everyone in the hall.
The steps were covered with blood, and Kou Huai could only cautiously walk around it.
Soon, he came to the twisted and horrific corpse.
Kou Huai was old, and he couldn't help but feel cruel when he looked at this picture.
He stretched out two withered yellow fingers and slowly stretched them out in front of Wei Xiu, whose face was full of blood.
Sure enough, there was no snort.
Although Kou Huai knew the answer a long time ago, he still felt very sorry after he was really sure.
It's just that this death is really terrible.
He hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and the moment he turned around, his back couldn't help but shudder.
When he was young, Kou Huai walked up in full view of everyone.
"Back to Your Majesty, Wei Xiu, the daughter of Taifu Qing, fell off the high platform for some reason, and she has already ...... Death to the jade!"
"What!"
"How so?"
"Someone died on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it was a big bad luck!"
"What the hell is going on, how can someone die?"
All the people in the temple were in a panic.
Zhan Xinglan and Fu Xuanlin both frowned, and a bad premonition sprouted in their hearts.
The envoys were in a foreign country, and they were already unsure, and they were even more afraid when they were killed at the palace banquet.
"This can't be some kind of curse, right?"
"Could it be that there are assassins in this palace?"
"If we're really assassins, aren't we dangerous? Who knows who the assassin is coming for!"
"No, we can't stay here any longer!"
The envoys are now cowardly as rats.
In the middle of the banquet, those images of pushing cups and changing lamps disappeared in an instant.
Emperor Jing watched the scene gradually get out of control, and shouted, "Everyone, tonight's banquet is not well received, you should go back and rest as soon as possible!" I will find out what happened when I fell to my death! Come on, send all the envoys back to Henghe Pavilion quickly! Send someone to guard it tightly! No suspicious person is to be allowed to enter!"
The envoys looked at each other, and finally left the Moon Hall of Toad Palace one after another with the support of the guards.
Wen Renzhuo glanced at Zhan Xinglan several times when she left, but she just lowered her head with a solemn face, and did not notice his gaze.
But none of this mattered, he just hoped that she would be safe.
Empress Yue frowned and said, "Your Majesty, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's leave as soon as possible, and leave the rest to the crown prince."
Emperor Jing locked his sword eyebrows deeply, and said contemplatively, "This matter is about an accident, Empress
Don't panic."
"But there was a death on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is not a good sign after all. Your Majesty, it's just for the sake of the cold luck, or it's better to taboo it."
"Father, what the queen mother said is very reasonable, if you are not at ease, it is better to let the eleventh brother and son deal with it together. It's not too early, my father has been tired all day, so let's go back to the palace early to rest."
"Okay, since the prince knows the general situation like this, then I will order you and King Ling to investigate this matter thoroughly, and within five days, be sure to give me a reasonable explanation. It's late tonight, settle down the Wei Tai Mansion, and then you will go back and rest."
Emperor Jing glanced at the two of them meaningfully.
"Yes, son, obey!"
The jade plate is still hanging in the air, but the people under the jade plate are each preoccupied. Chinese Net
On the way back to the house, Zhan Xinglan kept frowning, holding the double koi bracelet that Fu Xuanlin gave her tightly with one hand.
Suddenly, Fu Xuanlin's hand covered her hand.
"Lan'er seems to have something on her mind?"
"I'm worried about you."
"Worried about me? Why?"
"The prince has always regarded you as a thorn in his side, how could he take the initiative to deal with this matter with you? He must have other intentions, but I can't think of how he could hurt you."
"Lan'er, don't think about it so much, her husband will be careful."
"Well, by the way, and what His Majesty just said, can you hear the meaning?"
"What does Lan'er think?"
"Your Majesty said that within five days, you must give him a reasonable explanation. Lan'er felt that this statement had a deep meaning, and His Majesty must be telling you that what he wants is not the truth of Wei Xiu's death, but a statement that can convince the whole world and will not damage the prestige of the country."
"Lan'er is so smart, how can she be embarrassed by her husband's affection?"
"It turns out that my husband also heard it."
"The coming of all nations is the long-awaited dignity and dignity. At such a time, there is a fatality, and the father must have put the state in front of the truth."
"Presumably, even if Your Majesty doesn't say that, my husband already knows it."
"Born in the family of the emperor, you can only live if you can understand the sound outside the strings, and you can climb up if you can figure out the sacred heart, and Gonggong Kou is the best example."
"No wonder Your Majesty likes her husband the most, I think Fu Tingxuan is still complacent because His Majesty agrees to his proposal."
"The crown prince's reaction when he heard that Wei Xiu had fallen to death today was very strange, maybe he is the key to cracking the truth."
At this time, the East Palace-
Because of the death in the palace tonight, Fu Tingxuan sent Ke Wanning back to Chongren Hall for the first time.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Why doesn't the crown princess invite the palace into the palace to sit?"
"Presumably, at this time, Concubine Xi is still waiting for His Highness to be lucky, how can the concubine drag His Highness."
"Concubine Xi is waiting for the palace, what about the crown princess?"
Ke Wanning hung her head, her hands were half-on the side of the door, and she looked very delicate when she wanted to speak.
"The concubine is waiting for His Highness, what can she do? Instead of waiting for someone who can't wait, it's better to let yourself go, the concubine body can be figured out, and Your Highness doesn't need to worry about the concubine body."
"In this way, the crown princess has a palace in her heart."
"Is there any, does it still matter to Your Highness?"
Ke Wanning raised her eyes slightly, a pair of eyes flowed, and Fu Tingxuan, who was flirtatious, was itching.
"Of course it's important for a husband to care about whether his wife has himself in her heart."
"Your Highness......
"It's getting late tonight, the palace is lacking, is the crown princess willing to take in the palace?"
Fu Tingxuan raised his hand and hooked Ke Wanning's chin, just like the candle night in the cave room on the day of their wedding.
The night was long and mysterious.
As night fell, we ushered in Xiwei.
The Moon Hall of the Toad Palace has been surrounded by Chi Qianniuwei and others.
Fu Xuanlin came here early in the morning.
"His Royal Highness King Ling."
"Chi Qianniu Wei is exempt, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come?"
"Not yet."
"What anomalies can be found here?"
Chi Qianniuwei shook his head, "At present, it seems that Wei Niangzi is more likely to stumble."
"Where is the body of the lady now?"
"This morning, before dawn, he was taken away by Wei Tai Fuqing."
"The body has not been autopsied, how can it be taken away?"
"That's what we said to Wei Tai Fu Qing, but Wei Tai Fu Qing is a third-grade master, and it is the year of the sixtieth year, so we can't conflict with it."
Fu Xuanlin lowered his eyes, "Spread the word, go to the Wei Mansion for an autopsy!"
"Yes!"
A white tent was hung in front of the gate of the Wei Mansion, a bleak scene, diametrically opposed to the jubilant atmosphere of the whole street.
When the little servant in the house saw Fu Xuanlin coming, his expression was a little surprised, but he still respectfully invited Fu Xuanlin into the door.
Ordinary people have mourning at home, and if someone comes to mourn, whether they are really sad or not, the little guy should look sad.
But this little guy's expression is too strange.
There is a feeling of stealing chickens and petting dogs.
But what makes Fu Xuanlin feel even stranger is still to come.
He walked all the way to the front hall, but found that there was no mourning hall in front of the front hall except for some white tents and mourning flags.
An hour has passed since they brought back the body.
They had absolutely enough time to set up the mourning hall.
Just as Fu Xuanlin was standing still in front of the front hall, full of doubts, a dignified and beautiful woman walked over.
"His Royal Highness King Ling is fine, and the concubine Wei Xu has seen His Royal Highness King Ling."
Fu Xuanlin turned his head to see that it was Wei Taifuqing's little wife, Xu Jumei.
"Xu Niangzi is exempt."
"His Royal Highness King Ling, my husband and wife are too sad and inconvenient to come out to meet guests. The concubine will lead you to the side hall to sit down for a while."
"Don't bother, this king is here to see the corpse of the second lady again."
"The second lady died miserably, and His Royal Highness King Ling still doesn't think it's good. Besides, my family Langjun and his wife have instructed that no one is allowed to see the body of Wei Erniang. The concubine is just a little woman who can't speak in the mansion, and she can't be the lord of Langjun and his wife, so His Royal Highness King Ling might as well come back later."
Xu Jumei looked deferential and gentle, not like a liar.
But what she said, no matter how it sounded, sounded like a pretext prepared in advance.
Fu Xuanlin knew that there would be no result from dealing with Xu Jumei any longer, so he said, "Since this is the case, then the king will leave first. Please ask Lady Xu to convey her condolences to Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Cui on behalf of this king."
Xu Jumei owed a debt and said, "The concubine must convey it on her behalf."
Fu Xuanlin walked out of the Wei Mansion with a step.
As soon as he turned around, he saw that the little guy breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he was feeling relaxed about Fu Xuanlin's departure.
There must be something quirky about this Wei Mansion!
Baili Mo raised his eyes and asked, "Lord Wang, where are we going now?"
Fu Xuanlin looked at the gradually closing gate of the Wei Mansion, and a layer of mist was wrapped around his eyebrows.
"Don't go anywhere, go home!"
"Huh?"
