sick princess

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were on the eunuch.

The eunuch waved his hands again and again: "Your Majesty, even if there is blood here, it doesn't mean anything? Maybe someone accidentally walked here and knocked?"

These words are really feeble, who would come to such a place for no reason?

"I really don't repent. Father, according to Erchen, it's better to take off the eunuch's shoes and see if the shoe prints match the footprints on it, so you can know if this person has been here. "

"As for whether the two people who were murdered were Concubine Rong and Moxiang, it's easy to confirm. Find the shoes of Concubine Rong and Moxiang, compare them with the shoe prints left here, and you will know. "

As soon as Baoluo finished speaking, the clever guards immediately restrained the eunuch, took off his shoes, and pressed them on the ground.The shoe prints that were pressed were exactly the same as one of the shoe prints.

Everyone believed Baoluo's analysis immediately. Although they hadn't checked who belonged to those two pairs of petite footprints, they already somewhat believed in their hearts that these two pairs of footprints belonged to Concubine Rong and Maid Hexiang. Otherwise, who else has been here by coincidence in these two days?

These few pairs of footprints can be seen to have been printed recently.If it has been a long time, with the wind blowing the sand, the footprints on it will naturally not stay.

Fortunately, Princess Longevity found these evidences in time, otherwise, I am afraid that Concubine Rong will really go there for no apparent reason.

The people around looked at Baoluo with a hint of admiration in their eyes.Among them, Rui Xiaoyi was the worst.

For Rui Xiaoyi, even the people around her betrayed her, and she no longer expected anyone to help her prove her innocence, but who would have thought that after Baoluo participated in this incident, everything would turn around.At this time, in Rui Xiaoyi's heart, Baoluo's slender body was very tall.

After a while, Concubine Rong and Moxiang's shoes were brought.

After comparison, the footprints of those two pairs stretching all the way to the water's edge and never coming back were indeed those of Concubine Rong and Moxiang's master and servant.

Emperor Zhaode's face was full of coldness.Almost, almost, he was blinded by the thief who called "Stop the thief."

Who would have thought that someone would dare to openly murder a high-ranking concubine in the palace, and then try to blame another concubine afterwards!

"Bring him to me and interrogate him carefully! Be sure to find out who the other accomplice is!"

The eunuch was soon dragged down with his mouth covered, just like the maid next to Rui Xiaoyi.After a while, the sound of the board hitting the meat and the eunuch's wailing sound could be heard not far away...

The court lady who betrayed Rui Xiaoyi could not help but flinch when she heard the eunuch's wailing.

The maid named Hong Xing, before Hongling's arrival, was also highly valued by Rui Xiaoyi. When walking in the palace in the past, she often used Rui Xiaoyi's name to show her prestige.

But since Hong Ling fell into Rui Xiaoyi's eyes, she gradually replaced Hong Xing's position and became Rui Xiaoyi's number one confidant.Under Hong Ling's persuasion, Rui Xiaoyi kept a low profile on weekdays.Later, one time, Hong Xing was caught by Hong Ling and pretended to be a tiger outside. Rui Xiaoyi severely punished Hong Xing, saying that Hong Xing was ruining her reputation outside.

Since then, Hongxing has been more and more separated from Rui Xiaoyi.Hong Xing deeply feels that she cannot be reused by Rui Xiaoyi's side, and wants to change herself to another master.At this moment, Gao Zhi'er took the initiative to bow his head to her, how could she not be ecstatic?If she completes the errand for that master and makes meritorious service, wouldn't she be able to be transferred to that one's side in the future and be that one's confidant maid?

And then, as quickly as hope comes, so quickly does disillusionment come.When the eunuch was caught, Hong Xing knew that she was finished.

If she had known, she would not have wishful thinking.If you don't do those things, although you will lose a good future, at least your life is still alive!

The man in charge of guarding Hongxing said: "See? This is the end of murdering the master. Some people think that they are perfect and can deceive the master, but they don't know that everything they do is seen by the master. The master just I just want to see if they are telling the truth! To show off your cleverness in front of your masters is courting death!"

"Why do you think that the person behind the scenes doesn't let his cronies do it, but use you? Could it be that that person really wants to train you to be her cronies? Don't be stupid, that person treats you as a scapegoat." If something goes wrong, that person will throw you out as scapegoats, and she can sit back and relax as her mother.”

"Why, at this point, do you still keep your mouth shut for that person?" The man shook his head: "I'm really not worth it for you. If you recruit, maybe I can still ask the emperor for a favor and treat you forever Light hair down..."

"I recruit! I recruit! The person who pushed Concubine Rong into the water was indeed not Rui Xiaoyi. Rui Xiaoyi only said hello to Concubine Rong and left. I don't know who did it, but I I know that the person who actually murdered Concubine Rong was Li Ronghua!"

"Li Ronghua? What evidence do you have? There is no proof for what you say. I'm afraid the emperor won't believe it."

Hong Xing nodded her head like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, yes, I have a hairpin left by Li Ronghua as a token."

At this moment, Hongxing's heart is full of hatred for Li Ronghua.If she hadn't known that Li Ronghua was the number one favorite person around Concubine Zhou, if Li Ronghua hadn't used tokens to win her trust, how could she have fallen for it so easily?It's all Li Ronghua's fault, everything about her has been ruined by this woman!

Not long after, Hongxing's confession and the hairpin were presented to Emperor Zhaode.

At the same time, the eunuch finally couldn't bear the punishment and spit out a name.

"Father, if you want to know whether what the eunuch said is true, there is another way." Baoluo said, "Moxiang is a smart court lady. Trying to resist is to leave more evidence on the side of the sand, so that the truth can be revealed to the world."

"Someone just examined Moxiang's body. Moxiang had two broken nails, and the murderer's flesh remained in the other two nails. Since the eunuch had no wounds on his body, the injured must have been murdered." Another murderer of Concubine Rong and Moxiang. Call all the people who were on duty at that time and see who is injured, and you can initially judge whether the eunuch is lying or not."

Emperor Zhaode is very convinced by Baoluo's words now, upon hearing the words, he immediately ordered people to follow suit.

All the eunuchs and guards on duty were brought up, and three of them were wounded.One was wounded in the stomach, another in the left arm and a third in the shoulder.

The person identified by the eunuch happened to be the guard who was wounded in the stomach.

Emperor Zhaode's complexion was very ugly, because even if he didn't guess, he could tell that according to Moxiang's height, it was impossible for her to stab a person in the stomach when she was fighting for her life.However, when someone took off the man's shoes, the shape of the man's foot was quite similar to that of another murderer.If it wasn't for Baoluo's careful observation, they would have been deceived.

Once again, he was fooled by the eunuch.Having reached this point, the eunuch still refused to tell him the truth!

That being the case, it is useless to keep the eunuch.Anyway, even without him, they would be able to find out the truth!

"Give that eunuch to Zhen-alive-cut, punish the three clans, and sacrifice the spirit of Concubine Rong in the sky!"

Emperor Zhaode's light words made many people around feel chills.

However, no one dared to say anything.Murdering concubines, repeatedly deceiving the emperor, and fooling the emperor's father are unforgivable crimes.

"The guard with the shoulder injury is tall and burly, but Moxiang is quite petite, so it is unlikely that he will leave a scar on his shoulder. Furthermore, the guard's shoulder injury was obviously hit by a sharp weapon left behind, not scratches left by people."

"Princess has good eyesight. It is true that I was accidentally injured by my companion during practice recently." Hearing Baoluo's words, the man's expression became obviously much lighter.

"In this way, the only thing left is..." Baoluo glanced at the guard who was injured on his left forearm.Emperor Zhaode said before her: "Take off this person's shoes from me, and see if the shoe prints match the other pair of footprints on the sand."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the man was quickly stripped of his shoes.

Everyone around could see that this man's shoes had left the same imprint on the sand as another pair of men's shoes.

"What else do you have to say? Who gave you the courage to murder Concubine Rong!"

"Reporting to the emperor, all this was done by the minister. I am entrusted by others, and the matter of loyalty, forgive me for not being able to explain clearly to the emperor."

"No, stop him!" Baoluo yelled, and the people around heard her words and quickly stepped forward.

However, it was too late after all.

Everyone saw him turn black and fall to the ground.

In his hand, he held a wooden pendant, and a little milky white juice slowly flowed out of the wooden pendant.

"Your Majesty, don't you think this pendant looks familiar, as if you've seen it somewhere before?" Queen Xu squinted her eyes and thought hard.

"I also feel familiar."

"Father, when the court lady next to Concubine Hui committed suicide, she carried this pendant with her. I remember that this tree is called 'See Blood Sealing Throat', and the white juice is very deadly."

Concubine Hui was here today to watch the fun, but at this moment, her face turned pale with fright: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with my concubine. 'Seeing blood to seal your throat' is very precious, how can it be something that a concubine can get! Didn’t the maid next to Rui Xiaoyi recruit just now? It was Li Ronghua who ordered her, and she has nothing to do with the concubine!”
