Prime Minister Chasing Her Husband

Chapter 95 The Heart of Misfortune

Concubine Chen's body had already been lifted off the white silk and placed on a mat laid on the ground by the palace servants, with a white cloth covering her face.

"Your Majesty, I am responsible for the affairs of the Sixth Palace. Now that Concubine Chen has an accident, I will naturally come and take a look. Besides, there is indeed something wrong with her death." Leaning on Jing Wenhao, Li Xi affirmed.

"I know, how could she be willing to commit suicide? Someone is looking for trouble. Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." Jing Wenhao's words to Li Xi are always gentle, but it is not the case when he turns to the palace man up.

"Come on, all the servants in Concubine Chen's Palace will be assigned to the Clan's Mansion. Order to go down, open the ice cellar, and keep Concubine Chen's body for me. The guards from Dali Temple in Concubine Chen's Mansion will enter the palace for inspection. An autopsy record. If someone leaks a word about Concubine Chen's death, go with Concubine Chen." With Jing Wenhao's words, all the palace people present were shocked and wept.

The Chen family was really not peaceful during this time, the father had just been dismissed by the emperor, and the grandfather's barracks had been interrogated again, it just so happened that concubine Chen in the palace was murdered at this time, no one could believe that it was a coincidence.Concubine Chen's case meant that Xie Xuan would not be free for a while, but the emperor was considerate of him, thinking that Li Zhiyuan had never seen these things, he must have been frightened, and asked him to send him back first, and then go to the palace to "report on his work" .

On the return carriage, Xie Xuan hugged Li Zhiyuan tightly, and with his arms around him, he kissed Li Zhiyuan's forehead and then his nose. Li Zhiyuan didn't respond the whole time, and let Xie Xuan move.Xie Xuan thought that the child might be frightened, so he hugged him even tighter.

"Xie Xuan, are you crazy? I'm about to be strangled to death by you. Can you still have sex in broad daylight? Otherwise, if you persist, we will go home soon." Li Zhiyuan was hugged too tightly, and finally Unbearable.

Xie Xuan was a little confused when he heard this, he let go of Li Zhiyuan, looked at him and asked suspiciously: "Xiaoyuan, are you not afraid?"

"What are you afraid of? Concubine Chen? She often makes troubles when she is alive, and I am still afraid of him. Now that she is gone, what am I afraid of doing? Besides, her death is not terrible. It’s not messed up. It’s just a pity, no matter how beautiful it was at the time, it ended up like this today.”

Xie Xuan let go of his hand completely, pillowed his head, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Forget it, I was worrying too much. You didn't speak just now, and you scared me."

When Li Zhiyuan thought that Xie Xuan cared about him, he quickly squeezed towards the person, grabbed Xie Xuan's hand and put it on his heart, saying: "Actually, I'm a little scared. If you touch it, your heart will still be beating."

Xie Xuan couldn't help it, he wished he could hurt someone more.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that before you came, the empress had brought him for an autopsy. The empress said that the corpse was weird, and it shouldn't be as simple as committing suicide."

"What's weird?" Xie Xuan thought.

"Today's post-mortem examination, it was said that Concubine Chen had no other marks on her body except strangle marks, but the queen always felt weird, and asked the maid Wu Zuo many questions. For one thing, the ladies in the palace were all groomed by the maids, but last night The maid said that she brought the water in and was coaxed out by Concubine Chen, saying that she wanted to wash herself. As a result, when the body was found today, Concubine Chen's makeup was still in good condition, and there was no sign of grooming. But This also doesn't make sense, according to the rules, the water for grooming can't stay overnight, even if the ladies in the palaces turn off the lights, the maidservants will pour out the sewage, if this is the case, Chen Concubine's body should not have been discovered today. "

"It's indeed a little weird, but it's justified to punish a crime of dereliction of duty, it's not a big deal." Xie Xuan said.

"I thought so too, but the queen didn't. He looked at the body and asked Zuo, even if he hanged himself, is it possible that he did it later. The queen said that the strangle marks looked strange, and they were not like those recorded in "Washing the Wrongs", The bluish-purple color that appears after a person hangs himself, and it looks like he died first, and then was carried up to make a false impression of being hanged. The queen's statement has also been approved by the author. But the strangest thing is that they have tested for drugs, no matter what Neither the throat nor the abdomen showed any signs of poisoning."

Xie Xuan thought for a while, and asked him: "You mean that Concubine Chen may have died first and then was made to look like she was hanged, and it's because the cause of her previous death couldn't be found out. Xiaoyuan, Are you sure there are no other wounds on her body?"

Li Zhiyuan rubbed his head and said: "Be sure, this is what Wu Zuo said. I didn't read it when they did the autopsy, anyway, that's what they said."

Xie Xuan nodded, and stopped talking. Such a strange sudden death with no cause of death, he thought of the concubine brought home by the high priest, who died when they arrived that day, and no wound could be found , and there is no sign of poisoning, and I have read all the works in Beijing, but I can't find out why.After returning to the Xie Mansion, he didn't go directly to the palace, but sent someone to bring a letter to Lu Tan, asking him if he knew any way in this world to kill people invisible, not only that, but after killing, he couldn't find out of.

Coincidentally, in the palace, Li Xi told Jing Wenhao what was wrong, and mentioned that Concubine Chen was more like an illusion of suicide after a violent death. Jing Wenhao suddenly thought of his sister, Princess Wanling .Jing Wenhao has always loved this younger sister very much. What other elder brothers can do, he goes above and beyond.At that time, he had just ascended the throne, and Wanling told him that he had found the person she liked and that she must marry him.

He was very happy, and met the person Wanling mentioned. Although he was a poor scholar from a foreign country, he was indeed from a wealthy family. In the wing room of the Yin Temple.Speaking of which, the two met because Wanling sneaked out of the palace because of her love of fun, and happened to meet a scholar who sold calligraphy and painting, so one was talented and the other had a secret heart.Xiucai is not an abrupt person, he was surprised when Jing Wenhao announced him into the palace, and said that he deserved death for spying on the princess.Fortunately, Jing Wenhao is not a pedantic person, seeing the deep affection between the two, he agreed to the marriage, and planned to appoint an official to him in the spring of the next year. Anyway, his royal family's treasure is too shabby to marry.

Unexpectedly, Wanling was still discussing marriage with him in his palace the day before, and the news of the princess' death came from her palace the next day.Jing Wenhao was furious and ordered a strict investigation, but the result was not satisfactory.The conclusion given by all the works is sudden death.

Jing Wenhao frowned, and asked Li Xi tentatively: "Is there any poison in this world that can kill people immediately after eating it, but the autopsy can't detect it at all?"

Li Xi thought for a while, then suddenly got up and ran to the inner hall, searched in the box brought back from Li's Mansion, and finally took out a fragment that was too broken.He held up the book and shouted to Jing Wenhao excitedly: "I found it, I found it!"
