Jade Without Fragrance: Chapter 220 third person

   Chapter 220 The Third Person

   In the face of the fierce Yuliu messenger, Emperor Tai'an could only comfort him with a gentle voice: "Envoy, don't be in a hurry, wait until I ask clearly."

   "Your Majesty must give Yuliu an explanation!" The Yuliu messenger flicked his sleeves and his tone was cold.

   Emperor Tai'an was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

   It was less than 30 years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Later, it experienced the change of imperial power. The consumption of human and financial resources was huge, which gave Yuliu an opportunity to develop. Now that the Northern Qi Dynasty is about to move, Yu Liu's position is very important.

  The Yuliu messenger obviously understands this, and his attitude is so strong.

   "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and Princess Yian have arrived."

   Hearing that the Queen Mother was also here, Emperor Tai'an frowned subconsciously.

  The queen mother is very fond of Yi'an, and it is inevitable that she will be apprehensive when she asks about it later.

   "Envoys may wish to rest in the side hall first."

  The Yuliu messenger stood still: "The princess was killed, and as a courtier, it is difficult to sit still. Please allow me to stay here and listen to how the princess was killed."

   Those who came with the Yuliu messenger, as well as the maids and guards who went out with Princess Lingque today.

   Emperor Tai'an motioned to the servant to invite the Queen Mother to come in.

   After a while, the Queen Mother appeared in front of everyone, and a girl with a pale face followed behind her, it was Princess Yian.

   "Why doesn't the mother have a good rest in the palace?" Tai'an Emperor got up and greeted him.

  The Queen Mother swept over the people in the hall and said lightly: "How can Aijia rest when such a big thing happened."

   "I'm worrying my mother."

   "Your Majesty, let's ask things clearly. Yi'an was raised by Ai's family, and Ai's family understands her. No matter what, she can't do anything to kill her."

   The Empress Dowager said more to Princess Yi'an.

   Along the way, the Queen Mother has long wanted to understand the pros and cons. The crime of killing Princess Lingque cannot be easily pinned on Princess Yi'an. This is not only the grievance between the two little girls, but also the relationship between the two countries.

   Emperor Tai'an helped the Queen Mother to sit down and looked at Princess Yian: "Yian, tell me."

   Many eyes came over, and Princess Yian opened her mouth with trembling bloodless lips: "I don't know... I didn't kill it, I didn't kill it..."

   "Yian!" The Empress Dowager called her heavily, "If you only say this, then the Grandmother will not be able to help you."

Princess Yi'an trembled, and her chaotic mind finally cleared up a bit: "At that time, I had a fight with Princess Lingque -- it wasn't a fight, it was just that she said a word, I said a word, and stood up when she was excited -- "

   "And then?" Seeing that Princess Yian stopped again, Emperor Tai'an asked.

   Princess Yian's eyelids trembled, showing a confused look in her eyes: "I suddenly became dizzy, and when I saw it clearly, I saw Princess Lingque sitting on the chair with blood flowing from her chest—"

   "She lied!" Yuliu maid interrupted Princess Yian, "The servant saw Princess Yian holding a blood-stained dagger with her own eyes, and when she saw us rushing in, she threw the dagger and ran out."

   She said, and took out the veil wrapped from her sleeve: "This is the dagger. Many people saw it at the time. The guards were afraid that they would lose this important evidence in the chaos, so they picked it up and handed it to the slaves."

  The servant took the dagger wrapped in white pa and presented it to Emperor Tai'an.

   It was a dagger inlaid with gems, exquisite and gorgeous, and the Queen Mother recognized at a glance that it belonged to Princess Yian.

   This kind of dagger was popular among noble ladies in the capital for a while, and she was rewarded after hearing Yian mention it.

   "Yian, is this your dagger?"

   Princess Yian bit her lip and nodded: "Yes."

  Tian Di's eyes flashed with disappointment.

   "Your Majesty, there were only two princesses in the private room at that time, with all the evidence and evidence, you can't say that our princess committed suicide, right?" Yuliu envoy said aggressively.

   "It's not me!" Princess Yian's eyes changed, "I remembered, there is someone, someone is by my side!"

   "Who?" Tai'an asked immediately.

"I was dizzy and didn't see it at the time, but I could feel what he put into my hands—" Knowing that her words sounded absurd, Princess Yi'an burst into tears, "Father, you must believe me, There is really a third person, and I can smell the sweet-scented osmanthus on him!"

The maid    Yuliu immediately retorted: "Impossible, we didn't see the third person after we went in."

  The envoy Yuliu sneered: "Your Majesty won't believe this kind of words?"

   Emperor Tai'an coughed lightly and said solemnly, "Such important matters should not be taken lightly. Since there are doubts, we should investigate them carefully."

   "Your Majesty!" The Yuliu messenger was shocked.

  Emperor Da Zhou can say such shameless words?

   "I believe that the envoys don't want your country and Da Zhou to have a bad relationship because of misunderstandings?" Tai'an asked warmly.

  The Yuliu messenger shook his lips and held back for the time being.

   After all, it's on the site of Dazhou, so it's too stiff to talk about it. The most urgent task is to quietly transmit the news of the princess's murder back to Yuliu as soon as possible, and the king will decide.

   "Princess Lingque was unfortunately killed, I can fully understand the grief of the envoy and others. I need some time to find out the matter, and I will give you an explanation when that time comes."

   The envoy Yuliu and others were sent away, and Emperor Tai'an immediately ordered: "Arrange people to quietly surround the inn, and never let a piece of paper reach Yuliu."

   Yuliu was thousands of miles away, so she watched these people, and it was okay to hide the news of Princess Lingque's death for the time being.

   Emperor Tai'an never underestimated the wolf ambitions of the Qi people. When the situation in the north was tense, his cavalry was also stepping up training. It's just that compared to the Qi people who grew up on horseback, Da Zhou was at a natural disadvantage in the cavalry, and it was not an overnight success to cultivate it.

   What is lacking is time.

   Emperor Tai'an looked at the north and sighed, then called Princess Yi'an to him: "Yian, tell the truth, was there really a third person at that time?"

   "Really, Yi'an dare not lie to you."

   Emperor Tai'an nodded. He didn't say whether he believed it or didn't believe it. He handed it over to the Ministry of Justice to investigate the case.

   As expected by Lin Hao, soon an official came to the flower shop to inquire.

   The leader of the punishment department was in his thirties. Seeing Qi Shuo sitting opposite Lin Hao, he was stunned for a moment: "Is the prince too?"

   Qi Shuo happened to know this person: "Master Jia is here for Princess Lingque, right?"

   "Exactly."

   "Then Master Jia should know that this shop is the property of the General's Mansion?"

   "This is the property of the General's Mansion?" Director Jia looked at Lin Hao subconsciously.

   I only heard that the two princesses visited this flower shop before entering the tea house, but I don't know the details.

  Qi Shuo smiled politely: "Yes, so I'm here too. Just ask if Master Jia has anything."

   Director Jia touched his nose.

   It turned out to be supporting the daughter-in-law who had never been there.

   Director Jia also heard about Lin Hao: "Will the second lady Lin be present when the two princesses come?"

   Lin Hao nodded.

   "Can you elaborate on the words and deeds of the two princesses?"

   Lin Hao said it exactly.

"So, the conversation between the two princesses was not pleasant." Director Jia glanced at Qi Shuo and changed the subject, "It is said that after Princess Yi'an ran out of the teahouse, she ran directly into the flower shop, and Er Lin can talk about The reason?"

   It is recommended to find the lost love new book "Feng Jun", the story is wonderful, the update is stable, welcome to the pit.
