Chapter 487 The Zhao family’s frustration
The second prince's concubine had previously isolated the sixth prince's concubine, and the queen had already had a problem with Zhao Wanyi, but because of the second prince's troubles, she didn't want to cause trouble again, so she turned a blind eye.
After learning about Zhao Furong's actions today, she really couldn't bear it anymore.
The Queen Mother shook her head and sighed again, "That's all, she is Qingkang's daughter after all, and she also retains half of the royal blood. Now that she is gone, let's not worry about it. I hope there won't be any more trouble in Jinlan Courtyard. ”
The emperor and empress looked at each other and remained silent. The situation in Jinlan Court was obviously much bigger than Zhao Furong's. They didn't want to make the empress dowager unhappy until the investigation made no progress.
This side of Jinlan Courtyard.
Liu Laosan led the imperial guards around the well. No one spoke first. However, Xiong Feng, a newborn calf they brought to assist in the investigation, was not afraid of tigers and kept stretching his head to look into the well.
With this stretch, he fell straight down.
Fortunately, one of the Imperial Guardsmen quickly grabbed her leg, and the others hurried over to help.
After a while, Xiong Feng's horrified and shrill cry came from the well, "Hair, there are hairs in the water! Lots and lots of hair!"
"Damn it!" Liu Laosan's last trace of luck was gone.
Quickly ask people to pull Xiong Feng up, and at the same time arrange for soldiers with good water skills to go down and salvage.
Half a day passed.
When Liu Laosan came to the imperial study room again.
The emperor immediately put down the ink pen in his hand and asked impatiently: "How is it? Is there nothing wrong?"
Liu Laosan looked at the emperor sympathetically, took a deep breath, knelt down with his fists clasped, "Your Majesty, we fished out a corpse from the well, plus twenty-three skeletons."
The words just fell.
Liu Laosan felt that the palace was so quiet that he could hear a pin drop.
After a while, the emperor shouted angrily from the Imperial Study Room, "Here, find out the identities of those people! I will never take mercy lightly!"
Within half a day, the news about Jinlan Court spread.
Zhao Mansion.
Zhao Qinghe angrily entered Princess Qingkang's yard and angrily accused, "What a good thing you have done! Our whole family will be killed by you sooner or later!"
Princess Qingkang pushed Zhao Qinghe hard and yelled heartbreakingly, "Zhao Qinghe! My daughter is dead! She was killed! What happened to me seeking justice for her? Isn't she your daughter?"< br>
Zhao Qinghe was furious, "Did you know that because of Furong's incident, the emperor found a corpse buried in Jinlan Courtyard! Don't you know where Jinlan Courtyard is? If something like this happens, how will the emperor view our Zhao family in the future?" ”
Princess Qingkang looked stubborn, "I don't care! I must catch the real culprit who killed my daughter! I want him to die a good death!"
"Pah!" Zhao Qinghe slapped Princess Qingkang in anger and warned nervously, "Don't talk nonsense! Furong is my daughter, and I'm just as sad as you are when she's gone! But then again, she You have become Shen Congrong's scapegoat! Even if you want to take revenge, you should confront Yong'an Houfu and Shen Congrong! If you dare to make nonsense and bring trouble to the Zhao family, see how I will deal with you!"
Princess Qingkang covered her face and looked at Zhao Qinghe resentfully.
Zhao Qinghe came back to his senses and realized that he had struck too hard, so he coaxed: "I was too angry just now. You are the princess, so you should be able to guess something. Our Zhao family cannot afford to offend you. If you are angry, Just go to Yong'an Houfu and Shen Congrong, don't mention anything else, don't pursue it anymore, understand?" Princess Qingkang understood immediately when she heard this, and suddenly burst out laughing mockingly, until she burst into tears.
Zhao Qinghe's eyes flickered, he did not dare to face Princess Qingkang anymore, and hurried to Taifu Zhao's study.
"Dad, I have warned Qingkang. For the sake of her son, she will not act recklessly."
Mr. Zhao nodded expressionlessly, his eyes slightly red, and said: "Hand out Furong's funeral well. Also, take back the things the second prince gave you and don't make any noise."
Originally, the plan was for the Second Prince to target the Marquis of Yong'an, and wanted to teach him a lesson. Unexpectedly, there would be an accident, and the one who died turned out to be a young lady from his Zhao family. They knew the truth, but they still had to endure it, cover it up for the Second Prince, and transfer it. The sight of others.
Only Taifu Zhao can understand the feeling.
Murong Xu had no unnecessary expression when he learned that the Zhao family had accepted those things. Now, all his attention was on Jinlan Courtyard.
"Idiot! I just asked you to kill a ten-year-old child, but you have caused such a big mess for me! What do I want from you?"
The housekeeper knelt on the ground, trembling with fear, "Your Highness, the little one has been taken care of. It was originally foolproof. If Miss Zhao hadn't made trouble, Shen Congrong would have passed away long ago!"
Murong Xu became more and more angry as he listened, "What's the use of talking so much! You'd better think carefully about whether the Jinlan Courtyard affairs will be leaked now! If my father finds out about me, I will definitely put you in jail Broken into pieces!”

All parties are staring at Jinlan Academy.
Chu Heng followed the people from the Criminal Department to investigate and saw the bones all over the ground. Even though he had done psychological training early, he still couldn't bear it. He went out and vomited for a while before he managed to adapt.
When Liu Laosan saw him like that, he immediately shook his head and said, "I'm already working in the Ministry of Justice, but I haven't grown in courage at all! Why don't we be as calm as my family?"
"Calm? What's wrong with him?" Chu Heng said reluctantly with a pale face.
Liu Laosan pointed to the body covered with white cloth, "Congrong and Xiong Feng just came over to identify the body. They have confirmed that this person is the little eunuch who took the gold cake. Eunuch Zhou has sent someone to investigate this person's identity. It will be soon." There is a result.”
"What about these?" Chu Heng pointed to the scattered skeletons, one with a head and two big ones.
Liu Laosan pointed to the group of imperial guards who were still salvaging, "Now we can only hope that they will find some clues from the well."
Chu Heng touched his chin thoughtfully, "Have many people disappeared from the palace in recent years?"
Liu Laosan nodded dejectedly, "There are dozens if not hundreds. Anyway, I don't understand. I'll leave it to you! I still have to go to the emperor to investigate the matter of the Academy."
There must be a relationship between the little eunuch's food delivery and the Academy's malicious intent to cut off food, and perhaps it could provide some useful clues.
After this investigation, Liu Laosan did not return to Yong'an Marquis Mansion until Mao the next day.
Shen Congrong and the others were not qualified to go to the morning court. They could just enter the palace at Chenshi. The three of them had just gotten up and came over to see Liu Laosan immediately.
"Grandpa, how is the situation? Can we still go to the Institute of Ph.D. today?"
Liu Laosan touched Shen Rongrong's head and smiled gently, "Go! It's the same as usual. That manager Qi and several officials from the Bo College were all arrested. I also beat up those people yesterday. In the future, this kind of It won't happen again!
However, there are endless conspiracies and intrigues in the palace. For the sake of safety, you should not eat randomly in the palace. Our family is not short of food. From today on, you will bring your own food into the palace. After entering the Academy, don’t come out again. After you leave your job, Leave immediately.
Stop meddling, stop gossiping, and come back and ask me if you have any questions. ”
