After being struck by lightning and being in the world of women
Chapter 197 Death by Poisoning
When Zhong Huaiqi saw Lou Yi being grabbed by the collar by the eighth princess Zhong Zhenhuang, she couldn't help but cough and put on the airs of the crown prince's granddaughter.
"Aunt Eighth, what Lou Yi said is true."
The Eighth Princess was not afraid of her: "You are talking nonsense, who do you think you are? You are just a little girl. That is my biological father. Don't I know?"
"you!"
Zhong Huaiqi glared at the Eighth Princess and was also angered by her words.
"Eighth Imperial Aunt, I am the granddaughter of the Imperial Crown Prince conferred by my Imperial Grandmother. Now that my Imperial Grandmother is gone, I am the legitimate heir."
The Eighth Princess snorted, "Now that our mother is gone, whatever you say is the truth. Someone like you would be the fastest to die in the palace. I don't believe that our mother would be interested in someone like you. Even if our mother didn't leave a will, she must have left a will to pass on the throne. Where is the will?"
The princesses who can survive in the palace are not simple people.
With just one sentence, the Eighth Princess strangled Zhong Huaiqi's lifeline.
Zhong Huaiqi said: "The incident happened suddenly, and the Royal Grandmother left in a hurry, so naturally she didn't stay, but I am indeed the Royal Crown Prince's granddaughter who was personally appointed."
While saying this, Zhong Huaiqi inadvertently glanced at Zhong Ruhuang not far away from the corner of his eye, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Ah!"
The eighth princess sneered and shook off Lou Yi in her hand.
"You don't think we will believe everything you say, do you? Are you treating us princesses like fools?"
"Even if the Queen Mother did not leave a will, it does not mean that she did not write one. Moreover, Hou Dajian was the Queen Mother's personal female supervisor and served her for decades. When the Queen Mother passed away, Hou Dajian disappeared. This shows that there is something wrong."
Despite her extreme sadness, the Eighth Princess' thoughts became clearer.
She understood that something must have happened in the palace last night, and there must be something else hidden in it.
Her father must have been murdered.
Among all the people right now, Zhong Huaiqi is the most suspicious.
Who makes her a vested interest?
Moreover, it was she who ordered the burial of Emperor Showa's body, and she was also the one who blocked the news in the palace. No matter how you look at it, she is suspicious.
I have to say, although the Eighth Princess is a little narrow-minded, her abilities are beyond doubt.
All of Emperor Showa's princesses are capable.
The Sixth Princess also didn't want to see Zhong Huaiqi come to power. She had even thought about rebelling and she spoke about it at this time.
"That's right. Where is the eunuch Hou? I want to see the eunuch Hou? Whether it is true or not, I will know it by asking the eunuch Hou. If it is not possible, then I can only offend the remains of the mother queen."
After these words were spoken, Zhong Huaiqi's expression changed slightly.
The Sixth Princess' words were very clear, that is, an autopsy was required.
The key point is that Emperor Showa's body cannot stand up to scrutiny.
Lou Yi didn't expect that these princesses were so difficult to deal with and not easy to fool at all.
"Eunuch Hou colluded with Servant Yan to kill Your Majesty, and has fled for fear of punishment."
As soon as Lou Yi said this, the Eighth Princess laughed out of anger.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Eunuch Hou would collude with my father? And flee for fear of crime? Do you think I will believe it?"
If Hou Songlin was at the mourning hall, the Eighth Princess might not suspect anything.
And now Hou Songlin is missing and his whereabouts are unknown, which makes the Eighth Princess even more certain that something is wrong.
Zhong Ruhuang looked at the confrontation between the few people, raised her brows slightly, and understood something in her heart.
Something must have happened last night.
She recalled the vague meaning that Zhong Chengfeng had conveyed when he spoke to her yesterday.
Her mother is confirming her strength.
Letting Zhong Chengfeng come to test it out was also to confirm something.
Judging from the look of it, it is obvious that he wants to change the heir, and he particularly favors her.
Zhong Chengfeng must know everything.
But Zhong Chengfeng is not here now.
Hou Songlin is also missing.
Zhong Huaiqi must have received some news, which is why he took action.
And now, the most direct evidence is the remains of Emperor Showa and the body of Yan Shijun.
You will know if there is any problem after reading it.
When Zhong Ruhuang thought of this, she glanced at the people who were still arguing with each other, moved the fingers in her sleeves, and a stream of internal force was ejected.
Bang!
The luxurious golden nanmu coffin lid suddenly flew up and fell heavily to the ground.
Everyone was shocked by this scene and thought that Emperor Showa had come back to life.
Zhong Huaiqi's legs suddenly went weak and he fell to the ground, his face pale.
The Eighth Princess was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Zhong Huaiqi, whose face was pale, and her expression became subtle.
She snorted, "You are such a guilty thief."
Then, he walked a few steps to the coffin and looked inside it.
In the coffin, Emperor Showa was wearing the imperial crown and robes, his face was bluish purple, and his fingers were black and blue.
When she saw the body of Emperor Showa, the eighth princess couldn't help but sneer.
"Zhong Huaiqi, you said that my mother was killed by my father? Then why did she look like she died of poisoning?"
Even if the eighth princess was blind, she would be able to see that Emperor Showa died of poisoning.
"I……"
Zhong Huaiqi was speechless and couldn't give a reason.
She made a bad move.
Emperor Showa should not have been buried, but the murderer should have been investigated openly.
She also didn't expect that Zhong Ruhuang was a congenital master, and it was easy for him to overturn the nailed coffin with his internal strength.
As a result, the fact that Emperor Showa died of poisoning was exposed.
At this moment, no one realized how the coffin suddenly opened. They just thought that it was Emperor Showa appearing and he didn't want the murderer to go unpunished.
The Imperial Noble Lady Xiao Jin took one look at Emperor Showa in the coffin and immediately felt that her opportunity had come.
"Sixth Brother, send someone to investigate."
Zhang Xianfu then said, "Third brother, send someone to investigate."
The third and sixth princesses nodded in agreement and sent someone to investigate.
The Eighth Princess glared at Zhong Huaiqi, who was obviously in big trouble, and decided to send someone to investigate.
"Since my mother died of poisoning, then my father must have been murdered as well."
The eighth princess wants to find her father's body.
When Zhong Huaiqi heard this, he suddenly panicked.
She climbed up from the ground with weak legs, her face grim.
"Somebody come!"
The eldest princess didn't say a word the whole time. She knew her daughter a little bit.
In fact, she realized something when she stepped into the mourning hall.
The eldest princess, Zhong Sihuang, was the first daughter of Emperor Showa and was born when she was in love with Emperor Zhaoxian. She was the most beloved by Emperor Showa.
Before Emperor Showa ascended the throne, he liked to hold the eldest princess in his arms all the time. After he ascended the throne and had more affairs to attend to, he still loved to hold the eldest princess in his spare time.
It can be said that the eldest princess was almost raised in Emperor Showa's arms before she went to study in the Qinshufang.
The eldest princess has not forgotten her childhood memories and remembers them very clearly.
She closed her eyes, unable to believe that her daughter was such a cruel person who killed her mother.
On one side is her biological mother, and on the other side is her biological daughter, the eldest princess' emotions are torn back and forth.
When Zhong Huaiqi called for someone to come out, the eldest princess kicked her to the ground.
"You beast."
When it comes to understanding Emperor Showa and Zhong Huaiqi, no one knows them better than the eldest princess.
Zhong Huaiqi was suddenly kicked to the ground by the eldest princess. He was stunned and glared at the eldest princess.
"Mother Queen, what are you doing? I am a beast? Then what are you?"
