After I became a widow

The next day, Su Jingqing was waiting in the mansion for someone from the palace to call him into the palace, but the people in the palace didn't wait, but saw the steward who was brought by Uncle Zhong first.

The manager manages the shop under Xiao Beihuai's name, and is also a gift from the Ye family. His name is Chang Rong.

Chang Rong was sweating profusely, looking very anxious.

Su Jingqing put down his new script and asked Chang Rong, "But what happened?"

"People are dead," Chang Rong gasped, "Two people died in the jade shop today. Both the customers who entered and the passers-by saw it."

"How did you die?" Su Jingqing asked.

"One burned himself alive with fire coming from his mouth, and the other had his head severed by something and bled profusely."

"The weirdest thing is that no one has touched them. It is rumored that it is the prince, the prince's..."

Chang Rong didn't dare to say it, Su Jingqing added for him, "It's the ghost of the prince who came back to kill people."

"These gossips are talking nonsense again!" Uncle Zhong was very angry.

Su Jingqing was not surprised at all. Since Xiao Yunyi was talking about ghosts, how could he let the rumors end before the results came out.

He asked Chang Rong, "Do you know what your identity is?"

Chang Rong shook his head, "It looks very rich, but I have never seen it before. When I entered the door, I pointed out several jade pendants to wrap up, as if I just made a fortune."

"Where's the corpse?"

Chang Rong said: "They were all carried away by the people in the yamen. The one who was burnt to death was completely charred and turned into a charred corpse; the people in the yamen said that they would sew their heads back on after the autopsy."

"Do you remember what those two looked like?"

"Remember, remember," Chang Rong nodded repeatedly, "The old slave was sent to the palace by the old general because he was good at remembering people."

Just remember, Su Jingqing called out, "Baishu, grind."

He sat down at the desk, "The looks of those two people, according to what you remember."

Knowing that the princess wanted a portrait, Chang Rong quickly described it, and after a while, the two portraits appeared vividly on the paper.

Chang Rong repeatedly praised, "Like, it's so similar, it's exactly the same as those two."

Bai Shu raised his head proudly beside him, "That's right, what the princess is best at is painting."

The portrait is vivid, and Si Yan also recognized these two people at a glance, and shouted: "Aren't these two of them who went to the princess mansion yesterday, when they caught the rape, they ran the fastest and yelled the loudest."

Si Yan poohed at the portrait, "Deserve it, a good death!"

But at the same time, they all had a bad premonition, Bai Shu said: "No one who came back to make trouble in the bridal chamber will die."

The people who went to the banquet at Princess Pingjia's mansion yesterday, even if the young ladies and servants from various families were excluded, there were still 30 to [-] people.

If so many people were killed by Duke Huai's "ghost", who would not be afraid of Duke Huai, who would dare not believe it.

Today is probably just the beginning, and tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the court will also stage a good show of asking the national teacher to divination to calculate the life and death of King Huai.

Xiao Yunyi wanted to force the emperor to admit that Duke Huai was dead.

Chang Rong asked for instructions: "Princess, how many shops are still under the name of the prince, do you want to close them first?"

Chang Rong is afraid that tomorrow's dead people will appear in other shops, and it will be difficult for shops that have died to open their doors to do business in the future.

Su Jingqing: "Turn it off, there will be no business if it's on."

Today, someone died in the shop under Xiao Beihuai's name, or was killed by his "ghost", how could anyone dare to come to buy things.

Su Jingqing told Chang Rong, "If someone comes to return the product, it will be refunded according to the price."

"This..." Chang Rong hesitated a little, he was afraid that it would damage the prince's reputation, the things he sold were all good goods, at real prices, and the business of several shops was good, if he returned the goods, it would not be a small sum.

"Xiang Yu, bring the stack of bank notes," Su Jingqing ordered.

Hearing what he said, Xiang Yu naturally understood that what the princess wanted was the "filial piety" from the second son.

Xiang Yu handed the box and bank notes to Chang Rong.

Su Jingqing said: "Use it, don't feel bad about it."

Chang Rong refused to accept it, "Princess, there is still money in the account of the shop, how can I use your dowry."

Uncle Zhong also said: "Princess, the palace is still short of some compensation money, you can take it back."

Xiang Yu smiled slightly, and explained: "This is not the dowry of the princess, but a gift from the God of Wealth, so just use it if you are in charge."

Not enough, maybe the God of Wealth will give it away.

Both Chang Rong and Zhong Bo were a little confused, but the princess said so, and Chang Rong didn't refuse.

After thanking Su Jingqing, Chang Rong said: "Princess, please rest assured, this old slave will definitely handle the matter of the shop well."

Su Jingqing nodded. Seeing that Chang Rong was about to leave, he got up and said, "I'll go to the shop with you."

Bai Shu went out to prepare the carriage, Su Jingqing asked Siyan to follow him, leaving Xiangyu in the mansion to wait for news, "If anyone comes from the palace, go to the shop and look for me."

Su Jingqing led the people out of the yard, and when he reached the arch, he ran into the nanny who stretched her neck and looked inside.

Si Yan stepped forward and asked: "Is Mammy looking for the princess?"

The nanny coughed and saluted Su Jingqing, "I have seen the princess."

Before Su Jingqing could speak, she stood up and said seriously, "It's not a big deal, but I just heard some rumors outside."

The nanny raised her airs and began to say Su Jingqing, "Princess, this old slave said something that should not be said. You used to be a good man, but now you are the concubine who married into Duke Huai's mansion. Now that you are married, you should feel at ease." Staying in the backyard to take charge of Zhongfu for the prince, you can no longer go out at will like before, and it is less easy to spread some gossip. Before the prince returns to the mansion, the princess should abide by the rules and stay at the mansion to worship the Buddha and pray for the prince, so that the Buddha can bless the prince as soon as possible return."

"The old slave's words are not pleasant, but the old slave is also for the good of the prince and the princess. The prince has such a good reputation in the past, and the princess cannot be dragged down."

The nanny twisted her body, looking proud and disdainful.

"If the princess doesn't know how to be a wife, you can ask the old slave for advice. The old slave came from the palace and taught many little girls."

Siyan puffed up her face, wanting to curse.

Uncle Zhong took the lead, "Nurse Li, it's not your turn to point fingers at the princess's affairs."

Su Jingqing raised his hand to stop Uncle Zhong, "It's okay."

"Mommy, my princess is curious about something, and I hope Mommy can explain it."

Hearing Su Jingqing speak politely, the nanny was even more proud, "Princess, please tell me, this old slave must know everything without saying anything."

Su Jingqing: "The lord's nanny doesn't take care of the lord, but also serves as the little maid?"

The nanny's face froze, she poked her neck and said, "It's just to share the empress's worries in my spare time."

Also moved out the late queen.

Thinking about the cigarette holder quickly, she immediately took the conversation, "Mammy still has time to take care of the prince. Is it because there are so many people serving the prince that the mammy can't squeeze in, or is it because the mammy is not dedicated to serving the prince?"

Siyan looked curious and full of thirst for knowledge.

Naturally, it is impossible for the prince to have only one nanny, not to mention that Xiao Beihuai is both born and raised.

It's just that the people who took care of him back then, some died of illness, some left the palace and returned home, only this one surnamed Li came to the palace, bossed around as Xiao Beihuai's nanny in the palace, and wanted to take care of Xiao Beihuai Woolen cloth.

Xiao Beihuai had no time to talk to her, and now Su Jingqing was in charge.

Being stunned by Siyan's words, Nanny's face was very ugly.

But she still refused to give up and questioned Su Jingqing, "The princess thinks the old slave is talking too much?"

Siyan was not polite at all, "You know how to talk too much, you still say, you come out of the palace, don't you know what is the difference between superiority and inferiority? You are a servant who keeps your mouth shut and wants to teach the princess, and you don't even look at what you are."

"You!" Being ridiculed by Siyan, the nanny blushed with anger.

"The old slave grew up watching the prince, but because the prince was not around, he asked the princess to try to persuade him for the sake of the prince's reputation, but the princess asked the servants to say such ugly words. Is the princess dissatisfied with the old slave, or is the prince also dissatisfied? Didn't take it to heart."

"Hey, you," Si Yan rolled up his sleeves, "Can you be a little self-aware and compare yourself with the prince, I'm sorry, you deserve it too!"

"Rarely, don't talk about the prince. You watched the prince grow up, but there are many people who watched the prince grow up. You are a fart."

"You, you are a servant, you are so mean and vulgar, you really have no education at all." The nanny called Siyan to scold her and started to jump, and she stopped talking about Su Jingqing, and directly aimed at Siyan.

Siyan is not afraid of her, "It's none of your business, I'm eating your rice, take care of your own stinky mouth, and if you see me grinning in front of the princess, I'll smash your mouth."

Siyan slapped her face in the air, bringing a gust of cold wind, which scared the nurse so much that her neck shrank.

After watching the play, it was time for Su Jingqing to appear on the stage. He said: "My concubine has always been disobedient to discipline. She used to be in the Hou's mansion, but now she is in the mansion. She was born to be the master, and she doesn't like people jumping on her head."

"If you don't want to see this princess doing things, you can go home."

Hearing Su Jingqing chase people away, the nanny started to panic.

Except for the time when he met the servant, Su Jingqing never took care of the affairs of the palace, which made her forget that Su Jingqing said that he would drive out people as soon as he said they would, and he would not show mercy.

The nanny's attitude softened immediately, and she stepped aside, "This old slave knows his mistake, it's this old slave who overstepped."

Si Yan curled her lips in disgust, this man always tears when he sees the coffin.

Su Jingqing didn't say that she must go, but he ignored her and walked away.

Siyan walked at the end, walked a few steps and turned back, "Nurse, we didn't hear any rumors about the princess being bad outside, only you said, if I heard it outside, it must be Mammy, you passed it on."

"If you slander your master, you will be punished when you meet an official."

The nanny was so frightened that she sat on the ground trembling, saying that it had nothing to do with her, but no one paid attention to it.

After leaving the palace, he got into the carriage and walked on the street for half an hour before arriving at the shop where the accident happened.

Although Chang Rong had ordered the door to be closed, there were still many people around outside pointing and pointing.

Chang Rong said: "Old slave, please go and ask them to leave."

Uncle Zhong didn't think so, and suggested: "Princess, it's better to enter from the backyard through the side door."

This shop is big, the front door is open for business, and the waiter in the shop lives in the backyard.

Su Jingqing shook his head and refused, "No, just open the door, if you want to see it, just look at it openly."

The more sneaky a person is, the more suspicious he is.

"Okay, listen to the princess."

Chang Rong went to open the door and led Su Jingqing in to check.

The people from the yamen searched the body once when they were carrying it, and it was estimated that they would come later, so everything remained in place, and the blood on the ground was not wiped.

As soon as the door was opened, the voices of the people outside became louder, but it was inseparable from the murder of ghosts anyway.

Su Jingqing walked around avoiding the bloodstains, but found nothing wrong.

He asked Chang Rong, "Do you still remember what other people were doing when these two died?"

Su Jingqing pointed to the blood on the ground, "It's mainly when this person died."

Burning the mouth can be an early move, but decapitation is an instant kill.

Chang Rong had a good memory, so he gave a rough description, afraid of making mistakes, so he went to call the waiter in the store.

Su Jingqing asked Bai Shu to take the pen and paper again, and compared what Chang Rong and Xiao Er said, he drew down the scene at that time.

This painting reveals a lot of problems.

Su Jingqing asked Bai Shu to send the painting to the yamen. There are not many idiots in the yamen in Kyoto, and there are some who can really investigate cases. If you look at Su Jingqing's painting, you will understand what it means.

He didn't leave the shop in a hurry, but went upstairs. There was a private room on the second floor for distinguished guests.

Chang Rong took Xiao Er to boil water and prepare tea, while Uncle Zhong stood guard outside the door.

Siyan guards him closely.

Su Jingqing opened the window and saw a pastry shop across the street. He touched his stomach that was almost digested, "I want to eat mung bean cakes."

Siyan: "Okay."

She was sent to buy mung bean cakes.

As soon as the person walks on the front foot, a shadow appears behind the screen on the back foot.

Su Jingqing looked at the other party and said: "My lord, I really doubt whether you are a master of the screen."

Otherwise, why would it come out from behind the screen every time.

The author has something to say:

The prince finally reappeared, although there was only a shadow...
