Chapter 127 Chasing the murderer ([-])

Su Xianyu leaned over to salute, "I will take my leave first."

Meng Shoufu and others all backed out, and the little eunuch took off Xiao Mingshi's trousers.

Nian Yu took a look, then stretched out his hand to dial it, and pressed his lips hard, for fear of laughing out loud.

He adjusted his mood and tried his best to put on a look of bitterness and hatred. Fang slowly got up and signaled the little eunuch to put on his trousers for Xiao Mingshi.

Afterwards, he took off the shark skin gloves in his hands, threw them on the ground, wrote a prescription and handed it to the little eunuch, and bowed to salute, "The prince's life is safe and sound, and for the rest, this servant will do his best!"

But he is saying that he can't guarantee that he will be cured.

Zheng Hedi was silent, his eyes were heavy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Nian Yu also kept the motion of bending over and saluting, the atmosphere was sticky and cold, and the whole room of uterus did not dare to breathe out.

In the silence that weighed down one's heart almost to the abdomen, the palace man's deliberately low-pitched voice sounded, "Palmprint, the time has come."

Nian Yu moved his stiff limbs and said, "Your Majesty, this servant is going to take the emperor's needle."

Zheng Hedi didn't stay silent any longer, and hummed.

Nian Yu took the needle very quickly, "The emperor's headache is more serious than before, and it needs to be supplemented with a medicinal bath. The servant will prescribe a prescription, and the emperor can soak it on time."

Emperor Zhenghe nodded, remained silent for a while, and then said suddenly, "I only say that you can cure it."

But he was talking about Xiao Ming's injury.

"Yes".

Zhenghedi waved his hand, signaling him to back down.

Nian Yu maintained the posture of saluting, his eyes were bloodshot, as if he wanted to say something.

However, he didn't say anything in the end, and retreated respectfully. Immediately, the Imperial Guard stepped forward to escort him to the Ministry of Punishment.

The moment Nianyu stepped out of the main hall, Emperor Zhenghe's face darkened completely, and he said, "Come here, send the prince back to the East Palace to recuperate, Xuanhuang Noble Concubine".

After a while, the eunuch who sent the letter came back, and the imperial concubine Jiufang was still in a coma and could not answer the call.

Emperor Zhenghe asked, "The imperial concubine has been in a coma?"

"Yes, the servant has made it clear. The imperial concubine woke up once and said that she was going to see the second prince, but she passed out before leaving the palace gate. The two palace servants who served beside the imperial concubine did not leave at all."

"Keep staring".

The little eunuch bowed and retreated, and soon a black-clothed dark guard appeared, reporting exactly the same situation.

Zheng Hedi still ordered him to keep watching and let him back out.

Immediately, another black-clothed dark guard appeared, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, my subordinates have found out that the Second Prince slipped out with the two little eunuchs while the nurse was asleep during his lunch break.

The weather is hot now, at noon, it is not necessary, no one goes near Taiye Pool at all.

The lotus in the Taiye pool grew densely and tall, no one saw how the second prince and the two little eunuchs fell into the pool, and no one saw other people coming in and out.

The subordinates estimate that it is very likely that the two little eunuchs, or one of them, coaxed the second prince to go to Taiye Pool, and then took the opportunity to kill him."

Zheng Hedi only felt the headache suppressed by Nian Yu began to gurgle again, muttering, "I remember, Brother Zhao can swim."

"Yes, when the Second Miss Hua was in the palace last year, she taught Princess Mancheng to swim. The Second Prince heard about it, and begged the Emperor to learn it too.

Therefore, it is very possible that the two young eunuchs also threw themselves into the water because they knew that the second prince could swim, so they wanted to hold the second prince under the water and prevent the second prince from surviving."

Zheng Hedi imagined the scene where the little Xiao Mingzhao tried hard to swim up, but was entangled by two little eunuchs, and could only sink in despair, covering his head in pain.

Brother Zhao, his Brother Zhao——

The secret guard continued, "Because the emperor ordered the palaces to be guarded and not to be tampered with, no one dared to tamper with the second prince.

The second prince's nurse wanted to take the second prince back to the Changchun Palace several times, but Xu Bingbi didn't dare to do it alone, so he only ordered the brocade tent to be erected."

Nianyu is favored and has a tough wrist. These years, Eunuch Xu's status in the palace is almost transparent.

This time when Nianyu was in prison, Emperor Zhenghe handed over the affairs to Xu Bingbi for the time being.

"The second prince's nurse had no choice but to hold the second prince in her arms and weep bitterly, and all the palace servants in Changchun Palace cried around them.

The subordinates have already inquired clearly that the nurse has been crying in her arms with the second prince, and the palace people of Changchun Palace have been crying too, no one spoke, and no one left halfway.

A young eunuch was so incontinent that he didn't dare to leave."

No one left, and no one opened their mouths. Naturally, it was not the wet nurse who got the temporary order to hurt the prince.

Therefore, the wet nurse hurt the prince, either because she was really sad and jumped over the wall, or the wet nurse was colluding with the person who killed the second prince!
She had known for a long time that the second prince would die, so she used this name to harm the prince.

"The empress prince returned to the palace, heard about the second prince, and hurried to see it.

Because the second prince was surrounded by palace guards from Changchun Palace, the palace guards around the prince stood a little further away.

The second prince's nanny is also good at martial arts, so she made a sudden attack, but no one had time to stop her.

After everyone reacted, the second prince's nurse had committed suicide, and now her body has been sent to the Department of Punishment."

The secret guard said and handed over a thin document, "Your Majesty, this is the identity record of the two little eunuchs and the nurse when they entered the palace, please have a look at it."

Emperor Zhenghe took it over, and Xiao Mingzhao's nanny was selected by him personally. The milk is good, he can fight, and he is loyal, steady and strict. The nine noble concubines have praised him countless times for being able to choose a nanny.

He didn't expect that the nurse he had carefully selected for one son would one day turn into a knife for another son!

And those two little eunuchs, why didn't he choose them carefully?

"The prince returned to the palace, why didn't he come to greet me first, instead he went to Taiye Pond?"

At that time he had a headache, logically, Xiao Ming should have come to greet him as soon as he returned to the palace.

The dark guard was silent, and said, "At that time, the Crown Princess got the news and sent someone to guard the gate of the palace, so that His Highness will come and take care of His Majesty the next time she returns to the palace.

But the prince said that Taiye Pool was on the way to His Majesty's bedroom, and the second prince had an accident, so he didn't go to see it for fear of causing criticism, and he didn't waste time, so he went to Taiye Pool first."

He wanted to see if his brother was dead!

I can't even take care of my illness!
Emperor Zhenghe's face was ashen, "Xuan Xu Bingbi".

The hidden guard retreated, and Xu Bingbi trotted into the palace with his back bent. Behind him was a group of trembling palace servants.

He didn't wait for the government and the emperor to ask questions, so he knelt down and choked with sobs, "Your Majesty, this servant has already gotten acquainted with the second prince's nurse, the two little eunuchs, and the court ladies and eunuchs who have dealt with them recently." brought them all."

The palace people tremblingly told the story of their dealings with the three of them one by one, without flaws.

The two young eunuchs who served Xiao Mingzhao personally seemed to have just had a sudden whim today, and pushed Xiao Mingzhao into the pool of Taiye to drown, and threw himself into the water.

And the nanny really just fainted from grief, and dared to assassinate the prince in public!
Don't talk about flaws, there are not even any signs!

Emperor Zhenghe sneered, "All of them will be sent to the Punishment Department. If you can't find out who is behind the scenes, don't be a eunuch with a pen!"

He didn't believe that such a thing as murdering the prince could really be done without leaving any traces!

The group of palace people were terrified, and when they heard that they were going to enter the Punishment Division, they cried and fell to the ground, crying for innocence.

Xu Bingbi stopped sternly, but he also secretly complained, but he didn't dare to say a word, and ordered the group of palace people to be escorted out.

As soon as he left, another palace official came in to report, "Your Majesty, Princess Ninghe asked to see her, but the servant said that the emperor was discussing matters, so Princess Ninghe went to Changchun Palace first.

The eldest princess took the initiative to send the body of the second prince back to the Changchun Palace, and ordered the imperial physician to stab the imperial concubine with silver needles to wake up the imperial concubine.

I left a message, asking the emperor to go to Changchun Palace to discuss the second prince's funeral."

Only then did Zheng Hedi remember that Xiao Mingzhao's body had been left by the Taiye Pond all this time!
Just because there is no one in charge!
Brother Zhao had an accident, and he ordered the palaces not to move without authorization, but suddenly he had a headache and couldn't pay attention to the matter.

The queen mother is weak, and at this time his queen, the lord of the palace, should come forward to preside over the overall situation.

However, there is no master in the middle palace, and he has no queen.

His Yuan Empress was appointed by Emperor Xianxiao Ding, and she was the daughter of the Lian family. She died of depression shortly after the Huo family and the Lian family conspired to rebel and exterminate the clan.

Since then, he has not stood up again.

He suddenly remembered what Princess Ninghe said to persuade him to become a queen. The queen mother is weak and incompetent. There is no one who can take the lead!
As a result, Brother Zhao died and left his body by the Taiye Pond for so long, and the imperial sister was required to enter the palace to preside over the overall situation!

Zheng Hedi sat silently for a while, then said dejectedly, "Showing Changchun Palace".

……

……

The Changchun Palace was full of crying, but it was orderly, the palace people performed their duties, the mourning hall had already been set up, white silk was hung everywhere in the palace, and the palace people also changed into sackcloth.

Miss Huang has always been extremely capable.

Emperor Zhenghe raised his head, controlled the tears in his eyes, and then got off the imperial chariot.

Princess Ninghe came forward with Hua Pingle to meet her, and said with tears, "Please also ask the emperor to mourn and obey the changes, and take care of the dragon's body."

Zheng Hedi didn't know what to say, so he nodded silently.

"The whole city was taking a lunch break, and not long after I got the news, I cried several times and almost died.

I decided to ask the imperial physician to give her some tranquilizing medicine, and she is now asleep."

Princess Ninghe paused when she said this, but finally said, "Your Majesty, the pain of losing a child is so painful.

The imperial concubine has never done anything wrong, if there are any excessive words and deeds, I hope the emperor will be more considerate."

Emperor Zhenghe nodded, "I naturally know about this."

After a while, a few people entered the mourning hall. From a distance, Emperor Zhenghe heard the mournful sobs of the concubine Jiufang, and his heart ached.

After offering incense to brother Zhao, I must comfort her well!

Just as he was thinking, the all white concubine Jiufang rushed out from the back hall and pushed him violently!
The servants in the palace screamed for escorts, and the black-clothed dark guards quickly gathered over.

Concubine Jiufang is a weak woman, her whole body is weak under grief, this push looks like a huge force, but actually she doesn't have much strength at all.

Emperor Zhenghe only leaned back slightly, and stood firm, staring at the Jiufang imperial concubine who was blocking the door with her body, as if she was guarding something, "What is Aifei doing?"

The noble concubine Jiufang cried so much that her eyes were swollen and she could barely open her eyes, but the hatred in her eyes was unambiguously directed at Zheng Hedi, and she yelled, "You still ask me! You still ask me!

Nian Yu is obviously not a traitor, why don't you let him back?
What are you saying that my mother and son can live in peace and stability because of your protection!
Now that Nianyu has been away for less than ten days, that bitch in the East Palace killed Brother Zhao!

Are you satisfied now?Brother Zhao can no longer compete with the prince!The Nianyu has nothing to rely on!You are satisfied!
I don't know about your family and country affairs, I don't know about your overall situation, I only know that Brother Zhao is gone!It was you who killed me!You are not allowed to see him! "

She yelled and covered her face and cried bitterly, "Brother Zhao, brother Zhao! It's useless to be the concubine mother! The concubine mother is useless! The concubine mother can't protect you, can't protect you..."

Zheng Hedi's face was gloomy, but he finally endured it.

Princess Ninghe sighed and stepped forward to help the noble concubine Jiufang, "Your Majesty, the emperor doesn't want to.

Brother Zhao admired his father the most at that time, Madam, let the emperor go in and offer incense to Brother Zhao, ah! "

Hua Pingle hurriedly stepped forward to support her from the other side, and said, "Grandmother, I'll help you, don't be tired."

She was so strong that she held the Jiufang noble concubine firmly.

Concubine Jiufang limply in her arms like a marionette, let her help her to walk in, muttering in her mouth, it seems that the explosion just now consumed all her strength and exhausted her Wisdom...

……

……

Xiao Mingzhao died young or violently. Although Emperor Zhenghe loved him and made him a prince, the funeral was simple.

On the day of Xiao Mingzhao's burial, the noble concubine of Jiufang cried so many times that she passed out, and begged Zhenghe to allow her to stay in the imperial mausoleum to guard Xiao Mingzhao's tomb in front of civil and military officials, but Zhenghe refused.

In the palace, more and more eunuchs and maids were arrested by the Punishment Department, but no useful clues could be found.

Emperor Zhenghe was furious, dismissed Xu Bingbi from his post, and personally accused Su Xianyu to investigate.

Let the foreign ministers investigate the affairs of the inner palace!
This is the first time since the founding of the Great Xiao!
The emperor really favors Su Shangshu!

I'm afraid that once Meng Shoufu dies, he will be the next Shoufu!
There have been frequent changes in the imperial palace recently, and the entire capital has been eerily peaceful. Even the imperial censor dared not say a word about such a major event.

As the elder of the cabinet, Su Xianyu entered the Department of Punishment and Punishment without hindrance.

Su Xianyu didn't use Xu Bing's method of torture, but first carefully inspected the bodies of Xiao Mingzhao and the two young eunuchs, and then checked the personal belongings and residences of several people, and then asked questions, one by one, little by little. , Meticulous and patient.

Hua Ping was pleased with Princess Ninghe's instructions, and stayed in Fuchen Hall to accompany Xiao Mingqing these days.

Qi Meiren also came here often, before she used to come to Fuchen Hall to ask Hua Pingle when he would enter the palace, she wanted to be a teacher, and she became acquainted with Xiao Mingqing after coming and going.

Both of them have simple and straightforward temperaments, and they hit it off quite well.

Hua Pingle was afraid that Xiao Mingqing's heart and lungs would be damaged due to excessive grief, so he persuaded her to catch the murderer herself, and took her along to watch Su Xianyu investigate the case.

Su Xianyu didn't shy away from them, at first he checked the whole palace, but gradually the scope became smaller and smaller.

On the third day, he went to Xiao Mingzhao's study.

This place has been sealed up since Xiao Mingzhao's tragic death.

Su Xianyu rummaged through almost every book with her slender fingers, and her light-colored pupils scanned the corners over and over again.

Xiao Mingqing felt that he had looked at every crack in the floor at least three times!
Even though she was very worried about whether she could find the evidence that the murderer killed Xiao Mingzhao, she almost fell asleep watching it.

She thought that Hua Pingle must be the same as her, but in a blink of an eye, she saw that Hua Pingle had the same serious expression on Su Xianyu's face, her face was tense, and her eyes closely followed Su Xianyu's every move.

She is too impatient!
