Creation: Make figures and become a top boss
Chapter 39 Substitute Puppet
Inside the waterside pavilion of Zuo Xiangfu.
Different from the time when Jin Yan was under house arrest, there was a lot more life in the waterside pavilion today.
Several maids were surrounding the puppet sitting in front of the dressing table, dressing her up.
You can see in the mirror that there is a tall and stiff nanny standing not far behind the puppet. Judging from the dress, she must be from the palace establishment, and she is constantly admonishing her.
The puppet himself frowned and sobbed, with tears in his eyes that had not fallen for a long time, looking like I felt pity for him.
When Jin Yan was distracted and attached the puppet mark, she saw such a scene and couldn't help but be shocked.
The walk to Longyin Peak was quite smooth, and there was almost no rest along the way. The journey of more than 2,000 kilometers was almost completed in more than ten days.
Logically speaking, there is still some time before marriage, so why does the scene now seem like a big wedding?
Jin Yan looked around carefully, and after listening to what her grandma said, she understood the reason.
That Su Hai was truly a demon king, and he rushed back to the capital before Emperor Su on the pretext of missing Jin Yan.
As soon as they entered the capital, without even returning to the Prince's Mansion, the Second Prince Su Hai entered the Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion. Yan Ming heard the rumor that Jin Yan was unwilling to marry him, "Heartbroken to the core. Yan'er and I have known each other since childhood. We are childhood sweethearts. She How could she not want to marry me? No, I must ask her face to face."
Prime Minister Zuo hurried back to his residence. He was also shocked by the second prince's rude request, but for the moment he couldn't find any reason to stop him except "it was inconsistent with etiquette".
However, the second prince was impatient to waste time with him, and in his usual willful manner, he called the nanny in the mansion to "invite" Jin Yan to the inner courtyard.
The Prime Minister Zuo couldn't stop him, so he called the maid to dress the puppet, and arranged for the second prince to take a nap in his study.
The puppet packed up and walked slowly to the study behind Mammy. He saw the second prince's attendants and personal guards, plus the guards of Zuo Xiangfu, surrounding the small study.
Entering the study, the second prince was probably used to this battle and didn't take it seriously. He lay leisurely and contentedly on the small couch in the study, waiting for Jin Yan to come to pay her respects.
The chessboard on the small platform has been removed and replaced with a small table with refreshment fruits. One of the two maids is peeling the fruit and the other is feeding the second prince. If some singing and dancing are added, this wonderful Zuoxiangfu study will be perfect. It is no different from the wing room where you listen to music in Hualou.
Although Jin Yan was mentally prepared and knew from the original owner's suicide note that the second prince was not a decent person, she was shaking her head at his behavior.
A good prince, who is still a young boy, has such a greasy look. The person who taught him to look like this must be an old pervert.
At this time, Jin Yan did not expect that her rants would reveal the truth. She just followed the puppet's footsteps and walked up to the second prince. Fortunately, she didn't know what play the puppet was acting in, and she spoke. She said with shyness, "Yan'er has met the second prince."
The second prince laughed loudly after hearing this: "We haven't seen each other for a few days, and Yan'er has become so interesting. Is it because she is the king's concubine that she is different from usual?"
When Jin Yan heard this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. The eldest daughter of the Prime Minister Zuo did not want to marry the second prince. I had clearly told the puppet about this setting. Why did she act like this?
"Father has been confining me for these days, so Yan'er naturally thought it through." The puppet answered calmly and firmly.
"Oh?" The second prince's wild expression calmed down a little, but the corner of his mouth slanted upward, and he straightened up and looked at the puppet with a half-smile, "What have you thought clearly? Come closer and let me have a clear look. "
After hearing this, the puppet stood up and walked up to the second prince. He squatted down and almost leaned against the second prince's legs, looking up at him.
Although Jin Yan couldn't see it, she could feel that the puppet's eyes were full of deep affection.
"Don't seduce him! Be afraid of him!" Even though he was a stand-in puppet, Jin Yan still felt seriously uncomfortable and immediately ordered the puppet.
The puppet obeyed the order and immediately shrank back slightly, his expression turning into one of fear.
Fortunately, the second prince just happened to move closer to the puppet's face at this time, teasing: "It's not close enough, it has to be this close."
The puppet's timely fright seemed to please the second prince. He leaned forward and let out a screeching laugh like the friction of wheels when braking suddenly. He pulled the maid feeding beside him with one hand and picked up his chin to take a closer look.
"Look, let me just say that your eyes are not as bright as Yan'er's! You lose." Before the second prince finished speaking, he saw him pull out a luxuriously decorated dagger from his waist and stab the maid in the eye.
After such an action, the second prince showed no cruel expression. Instead, his face remained as usual. After stabbing him, he calmly released his hand, took a piece of tea and stuffed it into his mouth.
The maid who peeled the fruit immediately leaned down to the ground, her whole body trembling but motionless.
The puppet covered the scream that was about to come out with both hands, as if it was frightened to the point of stiffness, and remained kneeling on the ground, like a sculpture.
The maid who was stabbed did not scream or react in pain, as if it was not her eye that was stabbed.
She quickly pulled out the dagger from her eyes with her backhand, turned around and slit the puppet's throat with a knife, causing blood to spray everywhere.
The puppet opened its mouth wide and could only make a weak "gurgling" sound of bubbles breaking. The heavy protection outside the study was of no use to her at this time.
The maid who completed the surprise assassination did not hesitate to take out a small clay pot from her arms and pour the liquid inside.
As the liquid flowed down, she melted into a pool of blood like a candle, mixed with the blood of the puppet, and seeped into the ground along the gaps in the bluestone floor.
Within a moment, there was only a circle of half-dried blood left on the ground, the clay pot containing the liquid, and the second prince's ornately decorated dagger that didn't look like a murder weapon at all.
Jin Yan was stunned by this turn of events. It wasn't until the man in black suddenly appeared in the study and approached the puppet that she hurriedly ordered the puppet to pretend to be dead.
Fortunately, as Si Yin said, living puppets may still be noticed, but puppets pretending to be dead will definitely not be discovered.
After checking the puppet and confirming its death, the man in black disappeared in the blink of an eye, presumably to report it to the Prime Minister.
The second prince stood up leisurely at this time and looked at the puppet's "corpse" carefully. After a while, he said to the puppet gently in a voice that only he could hear clearly: "I didn't marry a boring person like you to suffocate him to death. Yes...it's all the fault of the left prime minister...but if he knew that his most beloved daughter died at the hands of the eunuch he hated most, his expression would be very interesting. Blah blah blah."
The second prince laughed slightly proudly, and the left prime minister also rushed into the study with an angry look on his face.
When the second prince saw Zuo Xiang, he straightened up with a nonchalant look on his face. Without waiting for Zuo Xiang to speak, he said: "It is unfavorable for my king to have a maid dare to be dissatisfied and jealous of the princess. When I return, I will offer the heads of all the maids in the palace to be buried with the princess.
Yan'er and this king's childhood sweethearts suffered such a tragedy, and this king was very heartbroken. Although he did not pass the palace, he was buried as a princess. "
The words left Prime Minister Zuo's anger stuck in his heart and he didn't know how to vent it.
Seeing that Zuo Xiang was still silent, the second prince stepped forward and helped Zuo Xiang sit down, and continued: "Whether Yan'er marries or not, in my heart, she is my princess, and Zuo Xiang is my father-in-law. We are a family, don’t hurt the harmony for one person.”
The left prime minister also calmed down at this time. Looking at the corpse of the puppet on the ground, his eyes were full of gloom, but he said perfunctorily: "People can't be resurrected after death, so what's the use of having all the maids in your house buried with you? It's the assassin. Maid, we must find out whether there is someone behind this who is trying to use this matter to sow discord between you and me."
The second prince looked obedient and obedient: "What my father-in-law said is that after the princess is buried properly, I will report it to my father and do my best to investigate."
