One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 296 A Mess of Chaos 2
At the end of the winter of the second year of Yongchang, the Princess Mansion in Dongping Lane ushered in another big cleansing, and a group of female officials and maids serving in Jiyue Pavilion were taken away.The servants sent by the Duke's Mansion came to wait on them, including Hawksbill, Coral and Amber.

For the time being, after the investigation is clear, those maids are brought back and then continue to serve.

The three aunts looked at Yuan Zhao, who was lying motionless on the couch, and complained distressedly while serving them.I told them to serve them earlier, but the little master refused to agree. Now it's all right, it's a big crime!
Of course, the three of them knew in their hearts that there was a reason for her not letting them come over.

Look, not only has there been a new batch of people serving at Dongpingxiang Mansion, but the current batch is not much better.After the news that the princess was poisoned, three people died overnight in the mansion.

There are servants and maidservants, and one of the maidservants is serving in Jiyue Pavilion.

The current evidence shows that she is quite suspected and motivated to poison her master.The reason is that her elder sister was among the group of maidservants who were beaten to death last time, and the reason for being beaten to death was that there was poison hidden in the house.

But some people know that [-]% of the executions in Dongping Lane were meticulous work, because the people they sent were among them.

The servant girl's so-called revenge for her elder sister is just a reason someone gave her to kill the master, a way to deceive others.In fact, the maid may be innocent and passively become a scapegoat for the real murderer.

Look, Yuan Zhao was poisoned, and the people who served in Jiyue Pavilion became the focus of investigation.A group of people, including Luo Yan and other female guards, were sent to the prison for interrogation.

Qinghe didn't go, she was a close guard, she repelled two groups of assassins in just a few days, she really didn't dare to leave.He didn't hesitate to hold his sword in a stalemate with the people from the Ting Wei Division and the Jing Wei Division, but in the end Luo Yan took Feng Lingwei's waist card as a guarantee, so he was able to stay.

Her Fenglingwei waist badge is the first one, bestowed by the late emperor, it is very important.Holding it can directly meet the former prince and today's majesty.

Luo Yan used it to protect Qinghe, and went to the Second Division for interrogation.

And Qinghe stayed in Jiyue Pavilion for interrogation, never leaving the courtyard.She didn't want to show up at first, but someone in the mansion had seen her, and she seemed guilty if she didn't see her.The situation was already chaotic enough, she didn't want to make Jiyue Pavilion worse.

Fortunately, the Second Division really investigated the case this time, and released the three doctors and a group of personal guards in just one day.Of the four female officials, only female official Yang who managed the private property came back alive, and the rest of the female officials were suspected of murdering the princess and were tortured.

It is reported that it was one of the female officials who poisoned the maidservant of Jiyue Pavilion, trying to fake the scene of the other party committing suicide in fear of crime to divert the attention of the second division.

The evidence for this matter is conclusive, and the current punishment is to find out the mastermind behind them.

There have been two accidents in which prisoners were silenced, but this time it will not happen.Not even a fly can fly in, and the mosquitoes inside can't fly out.

The matter is related to Dongping Lane, and there has always been a wave of unrest and another wave. The tragedy of assassinating officials happened again in the capital——

"Zhang Han is dead," said Jiyue Pavilion, in the deep twilight, Qu Tinglan sat on the big stone in the courtyard wiping weapons, chatting with Luo Yan and others about the gossip she had heard, "My father reminded him that he has not been peaceful recently. , let him not go back to the house..."

Mr. Zhang refused to listen, thinking that the current situation in Beijing and China was tense, and the murderer would not dare to show up easily and kill his insignificant old courtier.

Just that night, Mr. Zhang died in the study of his mansion with his throat cut.

"That's terrible!" Luo Yan regretted, "He is willing to say a few good words for our Highness and the Duke's Mansion in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. Once he dies, the situation of His Highness and the Duke's Mansion will only be more difficult in the future."

"Oh, it's not just difficult, it's like walking on thin ice!" Jin Shui sighed, looking at the main room involuntarily, "When His Highness wakes up, I don't know how angry I will be."

His words made everyone feel sad, yes, wait for His Highness to wake up... In fact, if he can wake up, it doesn't matter if he is angry or not.

Everyone invariably held hope in their hearts and sighed imperceptibly.

The body was poisoned by four kinds of poisons, which were given by different people.Fortunately, the four poisons restrained each other and only made her unconscious, not fatal.Unfortunately, if the detoxification is not done properly, the poisonous force will directly kill the heart due to the imbalance.

After lying in bed for more than a month, the doctors figured out the way and began to detoxify carefully.They said that if there were no accidents, His Highness might be able to wake up on New Year's Eve.

Yes or can, not necessarily.

In order to ensure that His Highness would definitely wake up that night, the current Jiyue Pavilion was surrounded by personal guards, and the enemy would never be allowed to take advantage of it.

……

On New Year's Eve, when thousands of houses are lit up, what hangs over the capital is no longer a bloody storm, but brilliant fireworks.The colorful fireworks bloom one after another, like a flash in the pan, blooming year after year.

The master of Dongping Lane hasn't woken up yet. The doctors said that the poisoning time is too long to infiltrate the internal organs, and it takes a period of rest to recover.

Only when you recover can you wake up.

The three gentlemen of the Duke's Mansion recovered from their injuries, but there was no festive atmosphere for the New Year in the mansion. They all sighed and frowned.Even the children in the mansion are deeply affected, unlike the children in the commoner's house who are free and unrestrained.

Zhuo Ji and Lan Ji are taking care of the children in the main hall, and their daughter and son-in-law have gone to Dongping Lane to visit Her Highness the Princess.Even if she hasn't woken up yet, as a relative, how can she have the heart to let her lie alone in that dangerous mansion for the new year?

Although there are three aunts there, it is not as convenient as my own family.

Ningxin Township Lord went away during the day, and A Niang caused the catastrophe of his sister-in-law. She wanted to stay and accompany A Niang to atone for her sins.Watching the New Year with a few younger sisters, it's a pity that the family she married doesn't allow her to stay outside for too long during the New Year's Eve.

Back to Bo's mansion, I had a lively feast with other people's family.Then go back to my own courtyard to chant scriptures and pray for my sister and brothers...

In just over a month, so many things happened, making the Eldest Princess Feng terrified and regretful.She usually recites scriptures, repents and prays for blessings in her own mansion, but right now, she is apologizing to the old Duke and his wife in the ancestral hall of the Duke's mansion.

"...I know I'm wrong, Lord Hou, sister, let Ah Zhao wake up quickly! I really know I'm wrong..."

Back then, Jiang told her before she died——

"Master Hou wants my daughter to be a shield, a shield for the sons of the Hou family! Sister, if my son can grow up, as an elder and a princess, you can be a shield to protect her, and a shield to hurt her." Spear, I hope my sister treats my son well.

If she dies, the son of the mansion...will die. "

Thinking of this sentence, Feng cried bitterly:

"My sister is unintentional, unintentional..."

She only wanted the children of the Duke's Mansion to live in harmony with her mother's nephews, and never thought of hurting Ah Zhao.It never occurred to her that once Ah Zhao fell, so many people wanted her sons' lives!terrible!

However, the emperor was wise and decisive, and he did not listen to or believe in Azhao and the Duke's government with just a secret letter!
This made her wonder, did the royal family want the lives of Ah Zhao and the Duke's mansion, or was the real culprit someone else, blaming her own mother clan?

No matter what the truth is, as long as the emperor is not biased!

Now she has nothing else to ask for, just pray that Ah Zhao gets well soon...
