I hide my concubine in a golden house

Chapter 53 She deserves to die!
"The thing inside the white cloth is... a dead body."

Su Tian took a step back abruptly.

Jiu Lixiang heard it in the palace, and saw a lot, but her face remained normal: "Your Highness, let's leave quickly, this kind of thing is the most unclean, don't let it get you into trouble."

Su Tian didn't hide when she heard the words, but frowned and looked over: "Ah Jiu, who died? Why did he die?"

The white cloth was randomly thrown on the ground by the two young eunuchs, and it was slightly unraveled, with a few strands of black hair faintly poking out from above. Looking carefully, there seemed to be red marks on the white cloth, like blood.

Could it be that someone in the palace used lynching?
Seeing Su Tian's curiosity grow stronger, Jiu Lixiang stomped her feet anxiously: "Your Highness, people around here have no time to hide when encountering this kind of thing, why do you still move forward?"

"Hiding for what?" Su Tian patted her chest and said solemnly: "I am the future emperor, and I have a dragon protecting my body."

Jiulixiang smiled: "Yes, your daughter's body, the future emperor, is so precious, don't get involved in these dirty things, go back with your slaves."

"Okay, I'll just ask, it's okay, Ah Jiu." She shook Jiu Lixiang's wrist reassuringly, and Su Tian stepped forward and said, "Get up, which temple are you two from? Who is it?"

"Back, back to Your Highness, the servants are served by the Minghui Palace, and the one who died is... the first-class maid Axiu who was served by the Minghui Palace..."

"Shen Xiao?" Su Tian said silently.

Isn't Minghui Hall the place where Shen Xiao lives?

After thinking about it, Su Tian ignored Jiu Lixiang's obstruction and walked straight forward. She stretched out her hand, and just about to lift the white cloth from the corpse, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly came from beside her: "Your Highness, wait a minute."

Su Tian paused and turned around slowly: "Shen Xiao?"

Jiu Lixiang waved his hand, signaling the two little eunuchs carrying the corpse to hurry down.

Shen Xiao was wearing some wrinkled white brocade clothes, with a burnt wisp on the right side of his temple, which hung short on his cheek, but even though he was in a mess, he still straightened his back and looked straight at her with gentle and firm eyes. .

As he approached, Shen Xiao bowed to Su Tian neither humble nor overbearing, and said, "Your Highness, Shen Xiao is guilty."

"What crime?" Su Tian glanced at the blood on the white cloth.

"Shen Xiao doesn't know, but today he made His Highness wait for a long time, it really deserves to die."

He said apologetic words, but he was not humble at all. On the contrary, he was born to be superior, and no one could make him bow down.

The instigator, Su Tian, ​​slapped two hahas, and said, "What are you talking about, Shaojun? It's only natural for students to wait for you, but I just heard that Shaojun's palace was on fire. I was shocked, are you okay?"

Shen Xiao smiled, "It's nothing, but His Royal Highness is worried about it."

"Then I can rest assured." With a smile in her eyes, Su Tian glanced at Shen Xiao, wanting to ask him why he came here, but swallowed the words again.

The person who died belonged to Shen Xiao's Ming Hui Palace, and the people under Shen Xiao's subordinates, maybe Shen Xiao had done something shady by himself. He was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he hurried over to hide the truth from her.

Changing his words temporarily, Su Tian joked: "But the fire suddenly fell from the sky, didn't Shen Shaojun do something wrong?"

"There seems to be something in your Highness's words."

"Young Master is thinking too much." Su Tian said coldly.

Seeing Su Tian's eyes flicking to the white cloth beside him, Shen Xiao didn't panic, his face was still warm and smiling, but he said the most ruthless words: "Is your highness referring to the maid? I think she is not enough to die." pity."

Su Tian frowned, and said word by word in a calm voice: "Isn't it inappropriate for Shaojun to say that?"

Is this the attitude one should have after killing someone?It's a bit too reckless, right?
"Your Highness thinks that the person who recommends himself as a pillow should die?" Shen Xiao asked.

He was telling the truth.

He never separated from Xiao Xiao on weekdays. Today, he placed Xiao Xiao in the hall because of Su Tian's consideration for the lecture, but he was told by his attendants that the Minghui Hall was on fire. Seeing the naked palace lady who was poisoned by the snake and died of poison.

"Hehehe." Su Tian laughed dryly, without answering.

It seems that more than one place in her backyard is on fire.

"Your Highness has a big heart, so it's fine as a subject, but..." Shen Xiao frowned, and then explained: "She deserves to die!"

"Can the palace allow you to be lynched? Shen Xiao, even if she really had some wrong thoughts, there will still be female officials to punish her. You shouldn't be so careless about human life!"

Shen Xiao sighed: "When I rushed back to the palace, she was already poisoned and died!"

"So, Shen Shaojun is acting like a snake?"

"Yes, I don't deny that she was poisoned by my snake and died, but she deserves to die!"

Xiao Xiao understands human nature and will not easily hurt others unless someone provokes him. Moreover, Xiao Xiao usually takes a nap on the top beam of the bed. bite.

He had ordered before that no one was allowed to enter his bedroom, and everything inside was cleaned up by himself.

There was no expression on Shen Xiao's face, but Su Tian could see a bit of gloom from it.

That feeling made Su Tian shiver suddenly.

"Shen Xiao, in your eyes, a human life is worse than a mere snake?"

"It's not just a snake." Shen Xiao corrected her: "Your Highness, Xiao Xiao is very important."

Su Tian didn't know that in Shen Xiao's heart, "Xiao Xiao" was not as simple as pets and weapons, but more comparable to his life. This time the main hall of Minghui Palace was burned, and Xiao Xiao was also injured.

If it wasn't Su Tian who set the fire this time, he would have made someone pay a hundred times the price.

I felt that Shen Xiao was too cold-blooded, but Su Tian remained calm, "Shen Shaojun, the state owns the state laws, and the family has family rules. I don't want you to be held accountable if you are not at the scene, but you have to pay for her to be buried richly, and then you will get another sum of money." The pension money came out to her family."

"Okay, I'll take care of it."

"Also, a life is worth a life, Xiao Xiao killed this court lady, and the young master handed it over..."

Su Tian didn't know that these few words of hers stirred up thousands of waves, and when she looked at Shen Xiao again, her expression had changed.

It was a rare expression of cruelty and coldness: "Impossible!"

This is the first time Shen Xiao showed such an expression, Su Tian felt that she probably found Shen Xiao's weakness.

However, Shen Xiao quickly returned to normal, and said word by word: "If His Highness insists on punishing this matter, then punish Shen Xiao, Shen Xiao will never complain."

Su Tian froze for a moment, and slowly shifted her gaze to Shen Xiao's face, "Are you serious?"

Shen Xiao lowered his eyelids slightly, and looked at her: "Shen Xiao is at His Highness' disposal."

"Ah Jiu, you come and tell Shaojun." Su Tian stared at Shen Xiao without turning back, but she didn't speak to him: "If you don't have eyes and ears, don't think carefully, what is the crime of causing someone's death through negligence?"
