Chapter 146: Refining
The fire burned overnight, and the next day, the entire Wangjiang Tower was reduced to ashes.
It took a lot of effort for the guards of the Zhao Mansion to find Zhao Li.
The corpse was left with only a pile of bones, which was chilling.
Zhao Mansion, the cry shook the sky.
Zhao Li's biological mother, Zhu, lay next to the corpse, wailing constantly.
"My son, my poor chestnut, how can you bear to let a white-haired person send a black-haired person for your mother!"
Zhu's eyes were swollen from crying, and the maidservant helped her up, "Madam, please mourn." ”
"Master, Li'er can't die in vain, you must avenge your son!" Zhu grabbed Zhao Gan's arm and cried heartbreakingly.
Zhao Qian lost his beloved son, his qi and blood were not smooth, and his liver also hurt badly.
He never thought that his son, who was alive and kicking around yesterday, would become a pile of bones today.
The revenge of killing the son must be avenged!
"The emperor will return to the palace today, I must play and let him be the master of our Zhao family. ”
After the blessing was over, the emperor and his entourage left the Taimiao, leaving only the second prince Xiao Linyuan.
The queen was reluctant, but the holy will had been decided, and she was powerless to change.
During the prayer period, her plan fell through, and Yuan'er was charged with plotting against her life, selflessly raising Gu worms, and murdering the princess, and everything she planned came to naught.
The more I think about it, the more unwilling I become!
On the way back to the palace, the emperor was worried about a lot of things, and his heart was depressed and panicked.
As soon as Zhao Li died, it is estimated that the Zhao Mansion has turned the world upside down.
In order to seek justice for his son, Zhu hurriedly returned to his parents' house.
Although the Zhu family is not as good as the Zhao family, it is also the queen of the third prince.
Hearing the bad news, the Zhu family was very sad.
Even if Zhao Li is no longer a thing, he is also the grandson of their Zhu family.
He died innocently in vain, and the Zhu family must not sit idly by.
"Sister, you don't need to say more, the eldest brother will definitely help you!
Zhu Shi wiped his tears with a handkerchief, "Thank you, big brother, with your words, I am relieved." ”
The sisters-in-law came to comfort her and make her want to open more.
But when she saw the Zhu family's children and grandchildren, she thought of her son who died in vain, and she became more and more sad.
Therefore, she didn't stay in the Zhu Mansion for long and left in a hurry.
"Madam, just now a small servant from the War King's Mansion came to pass the word, and the War Princess was drinking tea nearby, inviting you to sit over for a while. ”
"War Princess?!" Zhu suddenly became furious.
The king of war killed her Li'er, what kind of heart did his princess have, he actually dared to invite her to tea!
Did the woman deliberately provoke her!
She just died of her son, where is she still in the mood to drink tea and chat!
"Let people talk back, just say that Mrs. Ben is not available. ”
"Madam, that little guy said that it is about the truth of the child's vain death, so you must pass. ”
"Did he really say that?" a light flashed in Zhu's eyes and he stopped.
Wasn't her son killed by the King of War?
Zhu couldn't wait to figure it out, and hurriedly asked, "Where is Princess Zhan now?"
At this time, Mu Zhixi was sitting in a nearby teahouse,
The tea on the table was already cold, but her attention was all on the Zhenlong chess game, and she didn't notice it at all.
Qiushuang stood aside and waited, asking worriedly.
"Princess, we've been waiting for so long, so the Zhu family shouldn't come over. ”
In other words, if she were the Zhu family, she would definitely not see the enemy who killed her son,
I don't know what the princess thinks, so she went to great lengths to hide from the prince and ran out, just to see the Zhu family.
Mu Zhixi didn't care about what Qiushuang said, and it took half an hour to break the Zhenlong chess game.
The sound of falling children is crisp and pleasant, and the afternoon breeze is very pleasant.
"Princess, we've been out for half an hour, and if we don't go back, in case we are found by the prince......"
Mu Zhixi raised her head and glanced at Qiu Shuang.
"Wait, people will come. ”
Zhu's beloved son is heartfelt, and he will definitely not let Zhao Li die in vain.
She used the truth as bait, and the Zhu family would definitely come.
Smack!
The last piece is on the board.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Enter. ”
When Zhu saw Mu Zhixi, hatred suddenly rose.
For a moment, she really wanted to kill this woman, so that the war king could also taste the pain of losing her loved ones.
Mu Zhixi saw the killing intent in Zhu's eyes, but she was not afraid at all.
She instructed Qiushuang: "You go outside and guard, I will call you if there is something." ”
Of course Qiushuang refused, "Princess, the slave maid wants to stay here to protect you." ”
Mu Zhixi smiled faintly.
"I'm just chatting with Mrs. Zhao, how can it be dangerous. ”
Zhu was very discerning, and he also withdrew his handmaiden.
In the private room, Zhu didn't say much, and asked straight to the point.
"The princess of war sent someone to spread the word, saying that there is another truth about my son's death, what does it mean!"
Mu Zhixi spoke unhurriedly.
"Mrs. Zhao, please take a seat. ”
She has a gentle smile that gives the illusion that it is easy to see.
Zhu Shi was not worried about her small movements, and simply sat down neatly.
"Please also ask the princess to make it clear. She gritted her teeth, regretting that she didn't carry a dagger with her.
Her son died.
Risking this life, she also wants to avenge her son!
Mu Zhixi handed over a handkerchief and comforted.
"Mrs. Zhao, take care of your health. ”
Zhu didn't take the veil, his eyes stared straight at her.
This woman, isn't it possible that she is playing with her!
"Madame, do you know why Zhao Li was thrown into the fire?"
"I should ask the princess this. Zhu endured his grief, and his eyes gradually turned red.
Mu Zhixi poured the cold tea and added hot tea.
"The fire was set by Zhao Li, and he wanted to burn the people inside......"
"How could it be!" Zhu was a little surprised.
Her chestnuts are indeed delicate, but not enough to kill and set fires.
"When I say that, Madame may have a hard time understanding. Let's put it another way. Last night, someone used Zhao Lixing to assassinate the prince, and the entire Wangjiang Tower suffered. For assassins, the prince has never been merciful. Being burned to death by fire sounds a little cruel, but it is already the mercy of the prince. Otherwise, according to his temperament, Ling Gongzi will be skinned alive and cut by a thousand cuts. That kind of death is much more terrible than being buried in a fire. ”
Mu Zhixi pushed the brewed tea in front of Zhu, smiling like a flower, but her eyes were cold.
"What do you say, ma'am?"
Zhu felt creepy.
She had also heard of the methods used by the King of War to torture people.
If Li'er really assassinated the war king first, the way to die would definitely be a hundred times more cruel than now.
"Princess, you keep saying that Li'er assassinated, how is this possible? What reason does he have ......?"
Mu Zhixi did not refute Zhu's words.
"He is a gentleman, he walks the green building and walks the birds every day, and he has endless fun, so there is really no reason to do such a stupid thing. However, just because he didn't mean he didn't have the instigators behind him. ”
"Borrow a knife to kill people, as long as the knife is sharp enough. ”
Zhu Shi asked in surprise: "What does the princess mean, someone instigated my son Zhao Li to assassinate the war king?
Mu Zhixi's face was calm and looked at Zhu.
"Mrs. Zhao is so smart, she doesn't need me to explain, she has already guessed it. ”
Zhu's hands were slightly clenched.
She did think of someone, but, not sure.
