The wound was two inches above the opening of the heart and an inch below the shoulder.

It's not too big, but it's very deep, and you can see that it took a lot of force.

It's just that that kind of wound, and that position, is a penetrating wound, which can only lose blood, and it will not be fatal in a short time.

Shen Lingxi could see at a glance that this was an injury from a hairpin pierced into the flesh.

Mu Huaian glanced at her and motioned for her not to make a sound.

Shen Lingxi frowned, full of doubts, put down the hand that opened the corpse's clothes, and fell silent.

Dong Lixin saw that she was no longer speechless, and he thought that the corpse had almost been experienced, so he said to Chu Yan: "Your Highness, there are still some details about this case, and please move to Yuxiu Palace." ”

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she straightened up and said, "Deputy Commander Dong, but there is a new suspect?" I heard that my daughter had a dispute with Xu Ziyao, the daughter of Zhenguo Gong, and Li Yuejiao, the daughter of the Marquis of Yiyang, at dusk yesterday. ”

Shen Lingxi looked at her strangely.

This mother is really no one.

She really doesn't know what virtues her daughter has outside, does she?

Mu Xue'e doesn't embarrass others, she's already thankful, who will be idle and have nothing to do to embarrass her.

"Please also forgive me, during the investigation of the case, the family must recuse themselves." Dong Lixin said in a good voice: "Don't say that it's you, even if it's Mu Shaoqing, you can't intervene in the investigation." ”

Mrs. Zhou's eyebrows raised, "Then I'll go find the queen's mother......"

"That's it!" Mu Tiangang interrupted her words and scolded in a deep voice, "In front of Your Highness, there is no place for you to speak." Your Highness thinks that you and I have lost our daughter, and I have repeatedly not bothered with you, but I have taught you to make inches! If you pester, I'll have someone send you back to Beijing!" ”

As he spoke, he bowed respectfully to Chu Yan, "Neizi has no form, please forgive your highness." ”

"Cheng Engong should indeed restrain Mrs. Ling." Chu Yan's voice was extremely cold.

He raised his eyes to look at Shen Lingxi, "Miao Ling Dao Chief, go to Yuxiu Palace with Gu." ”

Shen Lingxi saluted, went to the side and carefully cleaned his hands, and then left with Chu Yan.

After the two left, Mrs. Zhou wiped her tears and looked at Cheng'en Gong, "Grandpa Guo, you have just seen it, that Miao Ling Dao Gu is a fox, hooking His Royal Highness to take her everywhere, if she knew this, the concubine would not let Xue'e come to the palace no matter what, and she would not have died because of this......"

"Mother is so forgetful."

Mu Huai'an, who was on the side, looked at her mockingly, "Yesterday, His Royal Highness threw the third sister out of Anhua Palace, what did you tell your father?" said that His Royal Highness didn't throw others, but threw the third sister, that is, he looked at the third sister differently, and in the name of his father, he ran to the queen and said this, to let the third sister fight for the position of the imperial concubine, why is it that now that my sister has suffered this catastrophe, she has forgotten what she said? ”

It's good that he didn't say this, but as soon as he heard this, Mu Tiangang's face instantly became extremely gloomy.

Mrs. Zhou saw that the situation was not good, her face changed slightly, and she hurriedly caused trouble, "Da Lang, I didn't see you shed a tear in front of Xue'e's corpse, but I spoke for that fox and charming Daogu everywhere, when you wanted to marry that Daogu, but people calculated to let her useless sister marry Erlang." I still think she is some kind of immortal fairy, but I didn't think about it, she had already climbed to the high branch of the emperor's grandson, and she didn't look down on the door of our Guogong Mansion at all. ”

As she spoke, she began to cry again.

This time, Cheng Engong didn't reprimand her again, but looked at Mu Huai'an, "Is what your mother said true?" Miao Ling Dao Chang is the daughter of Shen Ji, the one you asked to marry earlier? ”

Mu Huai'an's eyebrows sank slightly, and he did not forget to correct Shen Lingxi's name, "She is a heavenly master given by the emperor, with profound Taoism, noble character, and pure heart, the queen mother is full of praise for her, and she is definitely not the kind of woman her mother said." Moreover, there is no unclear relationship between her and His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun. He also asked his father to restrain his mother, be cautious in his words and deeds in the future, and refrain from insulting her again. If there is a next time, please forgive your son for being unfilial, and he will go to his aunt and ask her to administer justice. ”

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she was even more shocked.

"She stayed with the imperial grandson all night, and she was innocent? Such a fox with a heart higher than the sky, you didn't care about the face of the Chengen Mansion, and rushed to stick it on her, and I, as a mother, were all panicked for you. ”

said, and began to wipe his tears again, "It's also my son Xue'e's pitiful, well-behaved lady, who is the most important candidate for the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, and I don't know whose way is in the way...... In my opinion, she did it, and she is still pretending to perform an autopsy for Xue'e, but I want to see what they can find. ”

"Alright, you don't have to say a word!" Mu Tiangang shouted in a deep voice: "I see that girl knows how to measure and understand the general situation, if Da Lang can ask to marry her, and the Guogong Mansion will be handed over to the two of them in the future, and they will definitely be able to go to the next level." Today, that girl is kindly helping, and you are not allowed to say that she is not in the future, do you hear? ”

When Mu Huai'an heard this, his eyebrows drooped slightly, and his expression finally eased slightly.

Mrs. Zhou looked at her husband in disbelief with teary eyes.

She moved her lips and wanted to question him face to face, her daughter had just suffered a tragic disaster, her bones were not cold, as a father, she was not sad and sad, but she still remembered Da Lang's family affairs...... They are all biological children, why are they so hard-hearted to Huaijie and Xue'e......

But when the words came to her lips, Mrs. Zhou thought that although she now had no daughter and a son, she still had to fight for the position of the prince of the country, but she didn't reveal the anger and unwillingness in her heart, and bowed her head aggrievedly.

It's just that when he thought of Shen Lingxi, because of Cheng Engong's words "If Da Lang can marry her, he will hand over the Guogong Mansion to the two of them", a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes.

*

When Shen Lingxi left the Dizang Palace with Chu Yan, the dark night had faded a lot.

The wind and rain stopped, except for the water and mud on the ground, and last night's storm and rain seemed to have never happened at all.

They walked towards Yuxiu Palace with Dong Lixin.

Along the way, Dong Lixin confided in the hidden truth of the case-——

"When the internal guards found the body, there were two unconscious women at the scene, Xu Ziyao, the daughter of Zhenguo Gong, and Li Yuejiao, the daughter of Yiyang Hou. The emperor didn't want to make extraneous branches, so he specially asked us to hide the matter in front of Cheng'en Gong for the time being, and only wait for the truth to be revealed, and then make a decision. ”

Shen Lingxi's heart suddenly changed, no wonder no one mentioned this matter.

Just imagine, if Mrs. Zhou knew that there were still these two people at the scene of the crime, I am afraid that it would definitely be a quarrel and everyone would know about it.

At that time, it will be difficult to keep the reputation of these two girls, and how can Zhenguo Gong and Yiyang Hou give up.

It's a mess when you think about it.

"Xu Ziyao and Li Yuejiao once said, why are they in the Dizang Palace?" Chu Yan asked in a deep voice.

Dong Lixin: "Xu Ziyao said that after she went to bed at night, she didn't know anything. On the contrary, it was Li Yuejiao...... said in front of the emperor that she was blindfolded and tied to a place, and she didn't see who the person who tied her was, but in order to defend herself, she used the silver hairpin she carried with her to pierce two people, and then she was knocked unconscious. ”

When Shen Lingxi heard this, his apricot eyes were slightly raised.

The silver hairpin pierced someone-——

Isn't that wound on Mu Xue'e's corpse?
