Chapter 232: The maid dies

(Girls' Literature)

"Emperor. Princess. You're back. Woo woo...... "Baguio saw Wu Ling and Shuo come back. Then he knelt down in front of the two with a handful of snot and tears.

"What's going on?" Wu Ling had never seen this always very intelligent maid so flustered.

"Princess...... Woo woo...... "Baguio touched two handfuls of tears. Reluctantly calmed down and said, "The two days in the Weiyang Palace...... Three maids have died. And in the middle of the night, there is always the sound of Suosuo. Some people say that this Weiyang Palace is haunted. It scared everyone to sleep at night. ”

"There is such a thing." Shuo didn't believe in ghosts.

"Who died?" Wu Ling asked as she walked into the hall.

Baguio cried and sobbed in the back. As he walked, he replied, "Back to the princess." It was a little maid in the kitchen who died. and an old maid. The other is the little maid who waits for flowers and plants in the Sinong Palace. ”

"Got it. Stand down. Wu Ling replied lightly.

Seeing the princess, there was no reaction. Not surprised. Baguio was a little stunned. looked at Wu Ling in confusion. muttered, "Princess......"

"I'll check this later." Wu Ling walked directly into the hall. Sit on top of the main hall. Sip from your teacup.

After Baguio stepped back. Shuo sat beside Wu Ling. Before he could say anything. Wu Ling spoke.

"Isn't the emperor going to investigate?"

"What to look for?"

"Naturally, it's a trivial matter in my palace."

"Since it's in the Wuling Palace. Then Wu Ling has the final say. ”

The conversation between the two was extremely simple. One person answered one sentence and one sentence and answered quickly.

Wu Ling turned her head to look at Shuo. Seeing his eyes in full trust. He smiled slightly and said, "Congratulations to the emperor." ”

"Oops." Shuo sighed. Hanging his head and pretending to be dejected, he said, "I really don't like Wu Ling's unfamiliar appearance." ”

Wu Ling smiled slightly. Waving his hand to signal Shuo to leave.

Shuo rarely playfully pouted his thin lips like a child: "I'm afraid that Wu Ling is the only one in the world who is willing to drive me away." ”

Wu Ling had no choice but to ignore him. After he's gone. I started biting my lip and thinking about it.

There has never been a dead person in Weiyang Palace. And this time for what?

Two are the kitchen guys. One is from the Si Nong Temple. It doesn't seem to have much to do with itself.

The reason why Shuo was here was that Wu Ling didn't ask much. It was because of before she left. There was a fight with Wind Cliffs. Although the Wind Cliff was destroyed by her. But Wu Ling still had to guard against it.

She was more afraid that it was a matter of the spirit world or the demon world. If it is gratuitous, it will be rolled in. It's even worse.

That's why he didn't let Baguio say more in front of him.

Although at that time she seemed to be confident. But...... She wasn't really sure what was going on.

The only thing that knows for sure is. Weiyang Palace did not have any particularly large aura or demonic aura at this time. Except for Wu Ling herself. There was no breath.

If it has nothing to do with the two worlds of spirits and demons. Then Wu Ling can only suspect that it is Shilan.

Because before leaving. Wu Ling took the beads that Shi Lan had stolen. But he didn't punish her. If only she had the guts. It's possible to kill.

But she still really hopes that this matter has nothing to do with Shilan.

Put down the teacup. Wu Ling summoned Baguio and asked her to bring all the maids in the Weiyang Palace. Thirty-nine people in total.

At this time, Baguio, who was the main palace maid, knelt in front. There were five or six kneeling in the back, who looked like they were of relatively high status. At the end are the little maids and the cooks who are a little lower.

Wu Ling waved her hand. Signal for them to get up and speak. Don't be so kneeling. After all the handmaidens thanks. They all got up. Stand neatly.

After that, Baguio began to narrate intermittently. A couple of maids standing in the back added. Wu Ling sat on the throne and listened. Keep it in mind.

"The first maid to die was a new maid, Chunlan. Because it's new, it's always hairy. But because of its young age. Everyone is pretty nice to her. and help her in everything. ”

"He was found collapsed at the kitchen door at noon yesterday. Her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had cried. Everyone thought she was angry with someone and cried and fainted. But it's a touch. I found that it was cold and cold. Everyone's hearts are burned. I hurriedly called the doctor to take a look. But the doctor took a look. He waved away and said that there was no help......"

"My eyes are red and swollen. The doctor didn't say why. "Wu Ling, listen. Some questions were asked.

"Princess......" Baguio said with a sideways look: "The maid is humble." How can the doctor look at it more? Seeing that there was no help, he didn't say a word, brushed his sleeves and left......"

"It's fine. You continue. Wu Ling lowered her head. Biting his lip slightly.

"The second is an old maid. We usually call her Mama Wu. Because I've been doing it for a long time. used to be the one who served Xin Guifei. It's been a conscientious thing for so many years. There's nothing wrong with that. ”

"Yesterday at dusk. She was also found in the kitchen. She collapsed on the stove. The stove was on fire. Because I don't know when the princess will return. So every day Wu's mother will regularly go to boil some hot water. lest the princess come back useless. She was lying on top of the large steamer. When we found out......" Baguio choked slightly. He took a deep breath before he said slowly: "She has burned beyond recognition......

Wu Ling was silent.

"Although she was the second of the day...... But everyone thinks that Mother Wu is old. It is not necessarily impossible to say that it is a sudden infection emergency...... Therefore, he found the funeral officer in the palace and carried her away, ready to be buried......"

"But I didn't expect it...... It's not night. Then came the news. The small Qing of the Sinong Palace. At the time of pruning the chrysanthemum in the courtyard. Suddenly he fell to the ground. No more sound. When we go to see. Her whole body was swollen. Especially the hands. It was swollen as if it had been pumped through thin bamboo strips. ”

"Hmm." Wu Ling asked, "These three people can know each other." ”

"Acquaintance." Baguio nodded: "Chunlan and Mother Wu are both in charge of the kitchen meals. Therefore, they will be more familiar. Sometimes we often talk together. Although Xiaoqing does not have many intersections. But Xiaoqing has also been in Weiyang Palace for more than a year. Everyone will also make small talk during their lunch break. ”

"The body is still there." Wu Ling raised her eyes to look at all the maids. One of them visibly shuddered.

"Only Xiaoqing's has not been sent away." It was Baguio who answered.

"The other two, who sent them away." Wu Ling squinted at the trembling maid. Her heart was beating fast. It was as if it was about to pop out of the mouth. Breathing also becomes uneven.

"It's a slave." Baguio replied.

"You." Wu Ling pointed at her and said, "What's your name?" ”

"Slave slave slave...... Slaves...... Momotsuki ...... Yes Yes Yes ...... Si Nong Palace...... The maid ......" her answer stumbled. A pair of eyes also slipped around, not daring to look at Wu Ling.

"You're a stumbling stump." Wu Ling got up. Walk slowly towards her.

I watched as those demonic red eyes got closer and closer. She was so frightened that her nose ached. I started crying.

"Princess-in-law. This person is really not a slave and a maid to kill, it is really not a slave and a maid princess, and the slave and maid are really not killed. Momotsuki pounced and knelt on the ground. Kowtow under the line. There were red marks on his forehead.

If you say it's a stump just now. At this time, the bento was really eloquent, and he spoke very fast, and he didn't even have a tone or a frustration.

"Hehe......" Wu Ling bit her lower lip and slowly smiled. He didn't speak. Just watched her quietly.

"What are you doing. The princess didn't say that you killed the man. Baguio hurriedly held Momotsuki. Xiang Wu Ling explained: "Princess Mingjian." Momotsuki and the slave maid have known each other for a long time. Momotsuki is a timid girl. Never kill. ”

Baguio actually understands it in his heart. It's been so long. When the princess was in the Weiyang Palace. Momotsuki will subconsciously avoid walking. I also asked privately what was going on. But she only said that she was afraid of the princess. Baguio guessed. She may just be afraid of the princess's bloodthirsty eyes. I also explained to her what kind of person the princess is. But she was just scared. Even when I heard that the princess was going to call all the maids. It is also the fear of life and death that does not come.

However, the princess ordered and had to obey. She is not low. Can't stand in the back. I thought that if I endured it, it would be over. Unexpectedly, the princess would point her out directly.

Wu Ling tilted her head slightly. Look at her scared look. Didn't speak. He pointed to another maid and asked, "Do you know this Momotsuki?" ”

"Back to the princess. The slave and the maid know. The maid quickly knelt down. Don't dare to look up.

Although she was also a little scared. But there was no such thing as this woman who was so frightened that she almost lost her mind.

"Is she cowardly?" Wu Ling asked again.

"This ......," the maid glanced at Momotsuki. Some of them didn't dare to speak.

Wu Ling hooked the corners of her mouth. There was no superfluous expression on his face. It's just a little unpleasant to look at. She raised her hand and pointed to another maid she knew.

"Picking incense. You said. "It was the last time Wu Ling was in Shi Lan's body. The one who talks to himself a lot. Wu Ling still likes her.

Cai Xiang knelt at the back of the crowd. Her body shuddered when she heard the princess call her name. He looked incredulously at the princess sitting in front of him.

She was one of the maids who had a good relationship with Shilan. Now Shilan is down. Baguio is in charge. Even a few maids were not welcomed. None of the work done is the lightest work. Basically, the position has been lowered to the bottom.

And because the princess basically doesn't care about this kind of miscellaneous things. Therefore, even if it is suppressed. I didn't get a chance to say a word. I can only endure it.

She didn't expect it. She has been serving the princess for a long time. Always send things and meals with Sister Shilan. But I never spoke to the princess. How can this princess remember her name?

This is not a good opportunity to turn around.

But the princess looked at herself fixedly. Picking incense is not afraid or shaking. smiled. And he began to speak.
