Chapter 730: Lots of Cheats 51
But who believes it? In the end, King An planned to beat this man to death.
King An did not send this servant to the official because there was no strong evidence to prove that this servant killed Concubine Cao. He was afraid of sending this servant to the official and the official would not sentence her to death. How could that be allowed? ! His concubine is gone, someone must be responsible! So he killed him himself. Anyway, no one would hold him accountable for killing a servant who had made a big mistake.
Although at the last moment, the servant still let Miss Cao poison Princess Anjiang. In the end, I don’t know why Princess Anjiang was fine, but something happened to Concubine Cao and Miss Cao. This is very strange. She spoke out in an attempt to lead everyone to doubt Princess Anjiang and see if she could find a way to survive for herself.
As expected, others thought she was trying to scapegoat the blame, so they said this deliberately and beat her to death.
Of course, even if King An believed what she said, King An would not let her go, because King An was sad that Concubine Cao was poisoned to death, so he would rather kill her by mistake than let her go.
So although Wang An scolded the servant for talking nonsense on the surface and wanted to pass the blame, secretly, he was still a little suspicious. After all, the man was about to die, so what he said was not a lie.
If what he said is true, then just like that servant thought, he must think about why the person who was obviously killed was Princess Anjiang, but the last ones to die were Concubine Cao and Miss Cao. These two murderers are indeed a bit strange.
So afterwards, King An brought Linlang over for questioning.
Of course, this is all done quietly and not announced. After all, if it is made public, others may ask why they are suspicious of Princess Anjiang. After all, nothing was found in Princess Anjiang. Arsenic, on the contrary, was found in Miss Cao and the servant.
At that time, he could tell outsiders that it was because Miss Cao wanted to marry the Prince of Anjiang County, so he and the servant planned to kill Princess Anjiang. Then Concubine Cao acquiesced, but the last people to die were Concubine Cao and Miss Cao. , so he suspects something is wrong with Princess Anjiang?
Everyone has to think that there is something wrong with him. After all, instead of blaming Miss Cao and others for wanting to kill a princess, they blame the princess for not being dead. If the murderer is dead, then they feel that there is something wrong with the princess.
Linlang saw King An coming to question her. She had been paying attention to the situation here, so she was naturally prepared.
Now I heard what King An said to the servant, and then said: "She originally planned to listen to Miss Cao and harm you, but in the end nothing happened to you. On the contrary, Miss Cao and Concubine Cao Something happened, and she thinks it may be related to you. What do you have to say?”
He didn’t say that he doubted her, only that the servant did.
After saying that, he stared at Linlang closely.
As a prince, he had survived in the palace for many years. He often dealt with his father, the queen, and important ministers who held high positions in the palace before, and he knew very well that oppression by the superiors was a He knew what was going on, and knew how to behave, so he kept a close eye on Linlang to see if she was even the slightest bit panicked. If she was, it must have been her doing.
He felt that under his oppressive gaze, a little folk girl would not be able to bear it. After all, as far as he knew, his daughter-in-law, who was the legitimate daughter of his youngest son, only came from an earl's palace. Moreover, he is still young and has seen many big scenes, so how can he withstand the pressure and questioning from the superiors.
As a father-in-law, Prince An naturally cannot be alone with his daughter-in-law, so when Linlang came to see Prince An, he was accompanied by Prince Anjiang. After all, Prince An did not want his servants to know about this, so as not to let anyone know about it. People were lax and spread rumors everywhere, which gave Concubine Cao a bad reputation, so she had no one around her, but it was not easy to see her daughter-in-law alone, so she asked the Prince of Anjiang County to accompany her.
At this moment, Prince Anjiang heard what Prince An said, and before Linlang could say anything, he couldn't help but said: "Father, what those servants said makes no sense. They want to harm the Shen family. Nothing happened to the Shen family. , On the contrary, something happened to them, and as a result, the servant said that it was Shen who harmed them. Is there any connection between this?" He was a little afraid that Linlang would be frightened by his father, so he spoke up for Linlang.
He knew that his father was very angry because of the death of Concubine Cao. When Linlang spoke, he couldn't say anything wrong, otherwise his father would definitely note it and cause trouble, so Now he told Linlang this.
Linlang couldn't help but be surprised when Prince Anjiang spoke for her, secretly thinking that he was not as cold-hearted as she thought.
On the other hand, King An was not very happy after hearing this, and said: "Don't interrupt, let your wife speak."
It was the blame for King Anjiang to interrupt, breaking the oppressive atmosphere he created, So King An was naturally unhappy at the moment.
After hearing Prince Anjiang's defense and Prince An's accusation, Linlang quickly said: "Father, my daughter-in-law, I don't know what you mean. I usually don't like to hang out outside. I only stay in my own house." Staying in the courtyard..."
It looks like I am alone in a daze, but I am actually practicing martial arts. Sometimes I will find some movies, TV novels and games to play in my brain.
“Everyone knows this, and my father will know it when he asks. I don’t know why they didn’t harm me even though they wanted to harm me. Something happened to me, but in the end they suspected me. I am too innocent, I am just sitting at home, and trouble comes from the sky."
After hearing what Linlang and Prince Anjiang said, King An found no flaws, and felt that he couldn't ask anything. He waved his hand and let them go.
Actually, before calling Linlang over for questioning, King An had already sent someone to investigate Linlang. It was indeed as Linlang said, his legitimate daughter-in-law was a person who had nothing to do with the world.
Others like to grab the housekeeping rights in the house and want to get more. As for her, the Crown Princess asked her to take over the housekeeping, but she didn't care. She stayed in her yard all day long and was in a daze. Her only hobby was probably eating delicious food. , I built a small kitchen in my yard, and asked a kitchen expert brought from my parents' family to cook delicious food for her every day, and usually did not eat the regular meals of the middle school.
For such a person, it is indeed unlikely that Cao’s concubine’s matter was caused by her. King An estimated that this matter might have been caused by the Cao family.
Miss Cao did buy arsenic, but the purpose was to kill Mr. Shen. The reason why the arsenic got into the lotus root powder was probably someone from the Cao family who was jealous of Miss Cao being favored by Cao's concubine and saw that she had arsenic. , so he started to harm her, probably because he thought, Concubine Cao is dead, let's see how you can survive.
I guess the other party never thought about it. Every time Miss Cao came to the palace, she would personally make a bowl for Concubine Cao and drink a bowl herself. In the end, not only Concubine Cao died, but Miss Cao also Also dead.
Of course, maybe the other party knows this, but still strikes because the other party doesn't care whether Miss Cao dies or not, as long as she takes care of Miss Cao.
