Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 650 Can't Protect Her (1 More)
Song Yuanbao thought of what he saw when he first entered Qingfang Palace, and felt a chill from his feet to his head, and smiled coldly at Zhao Xi, "What's the matter, shouldn't you ask yourself this question?"

Zhao Xi was stunned for a moment, and then he was shooed away. He got down and walked towards Song Yuanbao along the stone arch bridge.

Song Yuanbao stood there without moving, his whole body was covered with an aura of regret, self-blame and sadness.

Zhao Xi had already come to him, and it was obvious that Ban Qiu was out of breath.

His heart sank, "What happened?"

Song Yuanbao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. After all, he didn't have an attack on the spot. He just lowered his eyes and said, "Arrange a maid to wash her body, so I can send her to An Le Tang."

"Is there anything you can't say?"

Zhao Xi's voice was calmer and more restrained than before.

But Song Yuanbao understood that Zhao Xi's calm appearance at this time represented how angry he was inside.

"Zhixia did it." Song Yuanbao tried his best to control his emotions, "Don't ask me, you can ask those women in your backyard what they did to compete for favor. Don't you always respect the rules? No no Are servants allowed to intrigue? Isn’t it quite capable? Why can’t even protect a female officer? Huh?”

Zhao Xi pursed his lips and didn't say a word.

At this moment, Eunuch Sanbao came forward, seeing clearly the filth all over Wanqiu's body and his dead face, his whole body froze, "What the hell is going on, Miss Wanqiu..."

Song Yuanbao didn't want to explain, but looked at Zhao Xi coldly, "If you don't find a way to explain to her, I won't see you again in the future!"

Eunuch Sanbao was busy trying to smooth things over, "Master Song, give me the man!"

"Go away!"

Song Yuanbao scolded, and walked up the bridge with heavy steps, holding Wanqiu in his arms.

Since he was a child, he liked to be lively, and he was most fond of women and jade. When he was in Yutang Palace, he often played with the four of them in his spare time.

He once joked that if Zhao Xi didn't want them in the end, he would follow him.

At that time, how innocent Zhixia was?She is young and has no plans, everyone takes care of her and spoils her.

Such a lively and lovely little girl, how dare she do such insane and humiliating things?
Eunuch Sanbao did not catch up with Song Yuanbao, so he could only look at Zhao Xi for help, "Your Highness, what should I do?"

"Investigate!" Zhao Xi's face was chillingly cold, "No matter what method you use, you must find out in the shortest possible time what Zhixia has done."

Eunuch Sanbao trembled, and hurriedly responded, "No."

After finishing speaking, he asked in a low voice, "Then shall we go back to the palace?"

Zhao Xidao: "Let them go back first, there is no need to follow."

Seeing that his master was in a bad mood, Eunuch Sanbao didn't dare to say any more, he gave the little eunuchs who were waiting quietly at Qiaotou a wink, signaling them to go back to the palace first.

Afterwards, Eunuch Sanbao was also sent away by Zhao Xi, and he asked him to mobilize all the servants in the vicinity to ask questions, and arranged for two court ladies to wash Pan Qiu's body by the way.

After Eunuch Sanbao left, Zhao Xi followed Song Yuanbao's route, and soon followed him. Song Yuanbao was sitting in front of the Anle Hall, with the body of Wan Qiu lying on his side.

He was leaning against the wall, looking depressed and depressed, and the bloodshot eyes were still aroused.

Seeing Zhao Xi following, he lowered his gaze, and said in an indescribably uncomfortable voice, "If I had pushed the door and walked in, she wouldn't have been humiliated, and she wouldn't have died."

Zhao Xi clenched his fists in his sleeves as he listened.

Silence spread between the two, and after an unknown amount of time, Song Yuanbao suddenly gave a wry smile: "Your Highness is used to being pure-hearted and ascetic, I probably don't know how many women in the world can be driven crazy by your face. You like it, the conspiracy and tricks they use are three points more poisonous than the most severe poison in the world. Have you never thought that as long as there are more women in your backyard, such things will only happen frequently in the future?"

At the end, Song Yuanbao's eyes were a little moist, "It's the first time I've seen someone die in front of me when I grew up so big. She wouldn't let me touch her until she died. I told you, but why didn't I tell you, all this is because of you, you are the murderer who killed her with your own hands!"

Knowing that Song Yuanbao was in a fit of anger, Zhao Xi didn't bother with him, closed his eyes and said, "I will find out who is behind the scenes and give her justice."

"Fairness?" Song Yuanbao sneered, "If you get justice, can you restore her innocence and her body?"

Zhao Xi frowned slightly, "Everyone is gone, what else do you want?"

Song Yuanbao stood up suddenly and stared at Zhao Xi, "What can I do? It's also your right. But can you think about these girls, you only need to wait close to her every day, and you think you are good to her, but in fact, you have pushed her to the forefront and put her under much pressure , You haven’t thought about it, have you? Maybe the bullying she suffered behind the scenes, you think she’s living a good life without even seeing it. She was sent to a group of eunuchs by someone, she was humiliated to death, and turned into a corpse lying in front of you, are you satisfied?"

"Song Hao!" Zhao Xi said in a cold voice, "Wan Qiu's death was beyond my expectation. The matter has come to this point. You can settle accounts with Qiu Hou and I can't make her come back to life. You hand her over to me, and I will arrange for it." People gave her a lavish burial."

Song Yuanbao clenched his fists, his eyes were red.

Zhao Xi is the crown prince, while Wan Qiu is just a female official in charge of serving the bed.

It stands to reason that with such a disparity in status, Wan Qiu, not to mention being humiliated to death, even if he was personally bestowed to death by the crown prince, he would not have the right to speak as a bystander. , can't go up and down.

Zhao Xi walked over and bent down.

Song Yuanbao realized what he wanted to do, and said angrily, "Don't touch her!"

Zhao Xi said with a deep voice, "She is from the East Palace."

Song Yuanbao said coldly: "Her last words before death are that she doesn't want you to touch her again. If you want her to go away without worries, just follow her."

Zhao Xi paused for a moment with his outstretched hand.

Not long after, the two maids who were named by Zhao Xi last night to wait on Pan Qiu rushed to the An Le Hall panting. When they saw Pan Qiu who had passed away, they both trembled twice in fear .

Song Yuanbao ordered, "Bring the person in and clean it up, and ask the female officer inside to be cremated."

Zhao Xi frowned deeply, "I said I would bury her generously, why do you insist on cremating her?"

"Up to now, you still don't understand that it's because you are different from her that you hurt her. It's all over, and you still want her to die?"

Zhao Xi's expression turned ugly, "Song Hao!"

Song Yuanbao was not afraid at all, and met his gaze, "You can protect whoever you want, can't you? You can't even protect a female official, how can you protect so many women in the Sixth Court of Sangong in the future? Or do you think?" See more people end up like Ban Qiu?"

Zhao Xi froze completely, unable to recover for a long time.

Song Yuanbao told the two court ladies, "Send it in."

After watching people enter the Anle Hall, Song Yuanbao turned his head, but saw Zhao Xi staying where he was, as if he had been immobilized by someone. Song Yuanbao said "Hey", "Are you still going?"

Zhao Xi's expression was slightly blank, he turned around and walked towards the East Palace, Song Yuanbao could only follow behind him.

After such a big event happened, Zhao Xi was no longer in the mood to find out why Song Yuanbao hadn't left the palace and stayed around the Qingfang Palace. After returning to the palace, he asked Mr. Mu to go to Dongkuayuan to call the three of them.

Although Eunuch Mu didn't know what happened, but seeing His Highness's face darkened, he knew that the matter was serious, so he hurried to Dongkuayuan.

Only after I went there did I realize that neither Wanqiu nor Zhixia was there, and there were only Nianchun and Xiudong in the courtyard.

"Where did Miss Wanqiu and Miss Zhixia go?" Eunuch Mu asked.

Nianchun shook his head and said, "It seems that I haven't seen it since lunch, what is father-in-law looking for with the two of them?"

Eunuch Mu sighed: "It's not me looking for it, it's His Highness who wants you to go to Chengming Hall."

Nianchun and Xiudong looked at each other and roughly guessed the reason.

In the morning, Father-in-Law Sanbao came to deliver a message, saying that only Wanqiu, a maidservant, will be left in the East Palace, and the rest will move out before the sixth day. Now that His Highness wants to see you suddenly, maybe he has changed his mind and wants them to leave earlier. People feel nothing.

Nian Chun said: "The two of them are not here, father-in-law might as well wait a little longer?"

Eunuch Mu was very anxious, "Wait any longer, the miscellaneous family can't do business, or else, you two will follow me first, Your Highness, I will explain."

A quarter of an hour later, the two of them followed Eunuch Mu to Chengming Palace.

Zhao Xi was sitting on the red sandalwood enamel throne in the main hall, and Song Yuanbao was sitting on the dark wood armchair at the lower head, both of them had serious expressions on their faces.

Eunuch Mu stayed outside and urged Nianchun and Xiudong to go in.

As soon as the two entered the hall, they both shuddered, did not dare to look up at the people above, knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty, my servant, kowtows to His Royal Highness."

Zhao Xi didn't let the two of them be excused, his cold eyes swept down, "Do you two know where Wan Qiu has gone?"

Nianchun shook his head and said: "It was still there in the morning, since Father-in-law Sanbao came to deliver the news, he disappeared not long ago, and the slaves knocked on the door, but Sister Wanqiu and Sister Zhixia were not there."

Xiudong also echoed, "Maybe it's the empress who passed on the lecture."

Song Yuanbao asked: "Then, Wan Qiu's death has nothing to do with you?"

"What?!" The two asked in unison, with unbelievable disbelief and horror on their faces.
