Chapter 216 Chunniang's funeral
"The Empress Dowager had no son in her early years. In order to consolidate her status, she adopted the prince born to the palace maid, and was the current emperor. The first two years of mother's kindness and filial son is also a good story."
If the prince died naturally, it would be fine. It was considered that he was not lucky and no one else could blame him.
But if the prince died of poisoning first, he would not dare to think about the things behind him.
No wonder Duke Huguo and Dali Temple Minister were disgusted with the "black mud". What the royal family is pursuing is not just the death of Concubine Yu. What they investigated was clearly the death of the crown prince first!
The truth behind it may change the world a lot when it comes to the orthodoxy of the country.
Wen Wan frowned, her heart was like a drum of war.
There is a saying that the more you know, the faster you die.
She regretted it so much that she shouldn't have accepted Shen Yu's head's order. Now she's getting into trouble!
The old lady sighed, "Maybe the prince had a spirit in heaven first. After eighteen years, she still found this case. The Empress Dowager took the opportunity to investigate the inner palace and really discovered something unusual. "
"The prince died first, and there were no princesses in the mansion, only a few wards. After the prince died first, the imperial physician took the pulse of several wards to confirm that they were not pregnant , and they were asked to bury the prince for the first time. "
At this point, the old lady looked up at Wen Wan meaningfully.
Wenwan received her gaze and her heart thumped, and she immediately knew that what the old lady wanted to say next should be Zhou Lingling's life experience.
Sure enough, the old lady said, "The Empress Dowager remembers that there were six people in the Tongfang Palace, but only five people recorded in the book of the burial of death. When the pulse of the Tongfang Palace was taken care of by the envoy Chen of the Imperial Hospital, I found out after pursuing it. The existence of King Cang. "

When he came out of the old lady's yard, Wen Wan's mood became heavier and heavier.
The moonlight was shattering and the shadows of the trees were swaying. She walked dejectedly on the path in the backyard, her thoughts were chaotic.
Wen Wan doesn't believe what the prince has in heaven first.
She was more willing to believe that there were humans behind all this.
When the concubine Yu was having funeral, a wild dog accidentally collided with the funeral team?
The soles of the Concubine Yu's feet were revealed by coincidence, so that Master Xuantong, who was accompanying him could see it?
There are standards for the imperial concubines to be funerals. The clothes, shoes and socks worn by the corpse are all palace standards. Not to mention how thick it is, but there is always a pair of socks, right?
When the body of Concubine Yu rolled out of the coffin, it happened to rub off her shoes and socks?
"Auntie Wan."
Agui, holding a lantern, walked from a distance and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wen Wan's figure. "Auntie Wan, you haven't returned to the yard for a long time, we are all worried." Wen Wan then realized that she had walked to a remote place without realizing it.
She forced a smile, "It's okay, I'll never get lost even if I'm in the General's Mansion."
"After that being said, the current general's mansion..." Agui didn't finish his words, but Wen Wan understood.
Even Chunniang, who was closest to her, was a spy sent by the Duke of Guru, not to mention other people in the back house.
When Wenwan thought of Chunniang, she couldn't help but sigh. "By the way, how did Chunniang arrange her affairs?"
Agui led the way with a lantern in front, and his voice seemed cool and quiet in the night.
"Mrs. said that traitors from the general's mansion like Chunniang are not qualified to be buried in peace, so she asked the manager to find a straw mat and wrap Chunniang's body. She planned to send someone to the suburbs of the city tomorrow to find an empty space , set dry firewood and burn it clean with a handful of fire."
Hearing this, Wen Wan lowered her head and didn't say anything for a while.
After a long time, she asked softly: "Chunniang is in her hometown, do you have any relatives?" Agui: "I knew Aunt Wan was in her heart and would definitely ask about this matter, so she was in charge of the matter in advance." I asked there. "
" Chunniang also has a 70-year-old grandmother and an eight-year-old brother in Linqiu City."
Wen Wan looked up in surprise, with a stunned expression, "There are old people and young people above."
Agui did not agree, "I heard that Linqiu City had a flood a few years ago, and the government office pulled all the young and middle-aged people in the city. When I went to fight the flood, who knew that the upstream broke the dam and washed away most of the people who went to fight the flood. Chunniang's parents were among them. "
This was something Wen Wan didn't expect. Chunniang never used to be Referring to the situation at home.
"Since it was organized by the government office, they were all heroes of flood control. Didn't the government office give me some pensions or something?"
Agui shook his head, "I don't know about these things." It's been a long time since the company, and when he was passing by Linqiu City, he helped Chunniang visit her grandmother and brother, and then he found out a rough idea. "
The two walked in the night for a while, and Wen Wan paused. "I want to go to see Chunniang off for the last trip tomorrow." Agui was stunned and nodded.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read! "Okay. When they set off tomorrow, I'll call you and I'll go with you."
Wen Wan responded lightly.
*
That night, Wen Wan tossed and turned all night and could hardly close her eyes.
As soon as you close your eyes, the scene of Chunniang before her death will appear in her mind.
After three years of getting along, in her memory, Chunniang is just an ordinary girl with a little timid personality, a girl who gently blows breath to comfort the bird when she encounters an injured bird.
Therefore, Wen Wan couldn't accept Chunniang's attempt to do such a shocking thing.
When Agui came to call her, he saw her holding two huge dark circles.
Agui sighed helplessly, and could only hold a quilt and stuff it into the carriage, allowing her to take a nap in the carriage.
Wenwan climbed onto the carriage in a daze, rested half asleep and half awake for a while. She didn't know how long she had walked. When the carriage stopped, Agui called her out.
What comes to your eyes is an open space at the foot of the mountain.
Several servants from the General's Mansion piled dry firewood in the open space. Next to the dry firewood was Chunniang wrapped in a straw mat, and a manager was preparing tinder oil next to her.
There is no one here except them.
Soon, the straw mat was carried onto the dry firewood, the manager poured tinders on it, and then took out the fire stick and threw it on it.
The flames rushed up instantly, and in a short while, a raging fire ignited.
The fire fell on Wen Wan's face, making her cheeks flush.
Agui turned his head and stared at Wen Wan, frowned slightly, "Auntie Wan, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Wen Wan was stunned, feeling that her thinking was a little slow, "No?" What, is it wrong? "
Agui couldn't tell why, he just felt that she looked a little different from usual.
Wen Wan raised her hand and touched her forehead. It was warm. Could it be that she had a fever?
Agui advised, "When you go back later, find a doctor to see it. You have been in a hurry these days, and you are just ready to prescribe a prescription to calm the mind to condition it."
