The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

   Chapter 511 Not him

   After leaving the Yaoguang Palace, Song Jingchen returned to Yugan Palace on the same road. On the palace road outside the palace, he happened to meet the Yu family who was leaving the palace.

   A sedan chair followed behind Mrs. Yu, Song Jingchen withdrew his gaze at a glance, stopped and retreated slightly to the side of the road.

   "Sir Song." Yu shi stopped in front of him.

  Song Jingchen cupped his hands: "Princess Jing'an."

   Mrs. Yu asked, "Did Master Song really search for the prince last night to return the token?"

   After asking, she seemed to sense something was wrong, and she smiled bitterly: "I mean if Lord Song could find the prince earlier last night, the prince might not have an accident."

  Song Jingchen ignored her question directly, and said gratefully: "It turns out that Princess Jing'an also felt that the prince was not harmed by her wife, so the foreign ministers are relieved."

  Yu:  …

   "I naturally hope it's not her, otherwise the lord would not know how sad he was at the time... But no matter what, I still hope that Lord Song can find the real murderer within five days, otherwise Mrs. Song..."

  Song Jingchen: "Borrow the princess's auspicious words."

  Yu:  …

  Song Jingchen didn't play cards according to the routine at all, Yu shi knew that it was impossible to tell whether he knew something from his mouth, so he had to wipe his tears and lead people away.

   "Princess Jing'an is also very pitiful. In the past, the prince... didn't return to Fengcheng very often, but now he left suddenly, His Majesty wants him to be mourned in the palace."

   "Your Majesty is too concerned about the lord, but if the princess hadn't come forward this time, those ministers would not be able to convince your majesty..."

  The two servants whispered and walked over, Song Jingchen came back to his senses, glanced at the sedan chair that was far away, and turned to go to the Imperial Palace.

   "What? Sorry? Or do you want to tell me that five days is not enough?" Xuanyuan Qi looked at him condescendingly.

  Song Jingchen shook his head: "The foreign minister wants to see the servant of the other courtyard again."

   Xuanyuan Qi paused for a while, stared at him with a gloomy expression for a long time, took off a token from his waist and threw it on the imperial case.

   Eunuch Wu understood, stepped forward, picked up the token and handed it to Song Jingchen.

  The servants of the other courtyard are now in prison.

   After coming out of the prison, Song Jingchen rubbed his swollen eyebrows.

   "Achen."

  A carriage stopped in front of him, Song Jingchen paused: "Mother, why are you here?"

   Ji Luo twitched the corners of his lips: "I've heard about him..."

  Looking around and not seeing Shen Yijia, she asked, "Why are you alone, Jiajia?"

   "Jiajia is still in the palace." Afraid that she would be worried, Song Jingchen just wanted to explain, when the other end of the carriage curtain was lifted and Xuanyuan Ziming stuck his head out.

   "The palace is my territory, you don't have to worry, I will cover my sister-in-law."

  After Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen were taken away by the Guards, Ji Luo immediately took Mo Yuan to find Xuanyuan Ce, not wanting that the other courtyard in Jinyu Hutong was empty, and went to the palace to ask, those servants also refused to say anything.

   Ji Luo had no choice but to go to Xuanyuan Ziming.

   At that time, Xuanyuan Ziming had just received the news of Xuanyuance's accident and learned that the husband and wife were taken away by the Imperial Guard, so he planned to take Ji Luo into the palace together.

  Song Jingchen said: "Jiajia is fine."

   Xuanyuan Ziming's guarantee did not make Ji Luo rest assured, but Song Jingchen's words made her temporarily hold back the idea of ​​going to the palace to save people immediately.

  Why use the word "save", because Ji Luo knew that Song Jingchen would not have left Jiajia alone in the palace if he was not forced to.

   "Let's go back first," she said.

   When he got home, Song Jingchen explained everything that happened in the palace.

   Didn't hear Ji Luo speak for a long time, Song Jingchen looked up, only to find her expression a little dazed.

   "Xuanyuan Ce, this bastard, does nothing when he is alive, and will implicate my daughter when he dies." She suddenly scolded in a low voice.

  Song Jingchen swallowed her comforting words, and heard her ask again: "You went to see the servants of the other courtyard, what did you find?"

  Song Jingchen frowned slightly: "There is indeed something wrong..."

   In fact, those people's words were similar to what they said in front of the monarch, but Song Jingchen still found a problem in it.

  The guard said that King Jing'an didn't say anything after learning that he had gone to look for him!

   Ji Luo frowned.

Thirty thousand blurted out: "That's not right, if it's a subordinate, knowing that someone came to look for his subordinate in the middle of the night, he would definitely wonder if he is in a hurry, even if the subordinate doesn't go back to look for him, he will leave it for the concierge. If, for example, if that person comes again, bring it in directly..."

  Song Jingchen nodded: "That's the reason, but the lord didn't say anything, and..."

   "According to the servants who met the prince last night, the prince didn't say a word from beginning to end after returning to the mansion."

   This is actually nothing strange in normal times. After all, many times, the master makes one look and one action, and the servant can know what it means.

  If the master is in a bad mood, it is common for him not to speak.

   But who caused the prince to have an accident? This had to make Song Jingchen think more.

   He continued: "If you don't speak, do you want to speak, or can't speak? Why can't you speak, is it because once you speak, it will be exposed..."

   Before he could finish speaking, Ji Luo asked, "Do you think that the person who died in the study was not Xuanyuan Ce at all?"

  There is no sign of any fighting in the study...

  If that person was not Xuanyuan Ce, the cause of death was suicide, or he was willing to be killed, naturally there would be no trace of fighting...

  Only in this way can it be completely matched.

   As for the veiled woman, it was only intentional for people to see that she wanted to put the blame on Jiajia.

  Song Jingchen nodded, hesitated for a moment before saying unsure: "But I observed carefully, there is no trace of disguise on the body."

  Mo Yuan can make a human skin mask. He had watched it from the sidelines. Although the mask can be faked, if you observe it carefully, you can still see clues.

  I don't know what to think, Ji Luo's face suddenly turned pale, and there was anger in his eyes: "What if it was someone who looked exactly the same?"

  Song Jingchen looked at her suspiciously.

   "I..." Ji Luo clenched his fists and took a deep breath: "Back then, I didn't actually leave directly."

  Xuanyuance said those humiliating words in public, and she was ready to walk away with her temper, but the child in her stomach calmed her down.

   She thought that Xuanyuance might have difficulties.

   Since she had this suspicion, she would naturally find out, so she sent a letter to the palace to ask him to meet.

   "Your Highness didn't come to the appointment?" Song Jingchen asked.

   After all, if they went to the appointment, the misunderstanding between the two would not be so deep.

   "No, he's here." Ji Luo's eyes were filled with undisguised hatred: "But not to explain, but to kill me."

   This is also the reason why Xuanyuan Ce did not intend to forgive no matter how much she had to explain herself.

   No matter how much trouble he had and how much he regretted later, it couldn't change the fact that he had murdered her.

   She didn't die because her life was big, it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

   Song Jingchen didn't expect that there was such a stubble among them, and she didn't want to say that she didn't want Jiajia to be under pressure.

Can……

   "It's impossible for the lord to do that." He said firmly.

   "What if it wasn't him who came."

   Ji Luo's jaw trembled when he said this.

   The hurdle that she couldn't overcome was very likely a misunderstanding, how ridiculous.

   "Mother..." Song Jingchen didn't know how to comfort her.

   Ji Luo closed his eyes and tried to calm down: "If there really is a person who looks like Xuanyuan Ce in this world, where is Xuanyuan Ce really? Is it possible...he is still alive?"

  Song Jingchen stood up: "I'll go look for it."

   "Achen." Ji Luo stopped him. "You didn't rest all night yesterday, even if you want to look for it, eat something before you go."

   Song Jingchen wanted to say no, but Ji Luo had already asked Mo Yuan to prepare food.

   After instructing her, she found another 30,000 yuan and took three copper plates, and went back to the room alone.

  Song Jingchen paused, because Ji Luo had never shown it before, he almost forgot that people in Tianji Valley were good at divination. As the owner of the valley, Ji Luo is naturally good at this.

   It should not be difficult to calculate a life and death through divination.

   Not long after, Mo Yuan brought a bowl of hot noodles.

   The aroma was tangy, and Song Jingchen felt hungry, but he picked up the chopsticks and lost his appetite for a while.

   That girl is in the palace, and I don't know if she is hungry.

   Yugan Palace, the **** repeated what Song Jingchen had asked in the Heavenly Prison.

   Waiting for the person to leave, Eunuch Wu gave him a careful look.

   "Just say anything." Xuanyuan Qi said.

   "The old slave is wondering if Mrs. Song will really be wronged."

   Xuanyuan Qi paused and said coldly, "I only believe the evidence."

   Eunuch Wu opened his mouth. This does not mean that if Lord Song cannot produce evidence within five days, Mrs. Song will...

   Xuanyuan Qi glanced at him, Eunuch Wu understood and waved the other servants back.

   "You've been staring at it for the past few days. Someone serving here can send messages to the outside world." Xuanyuan Qi said solemnly: "If you find out, you don't need to be alarmed. You just need to figure out where the message went."

  Although he was puzzled, Eunuch Wu still bowed his head.

   "How?" Xuanyuan Qi suddenly asked again.

   Knowing that he was not asking himself, Eunuch Wu obediently stepped aside.

  A spear guard appeared in the temple.

   "There is nothing unusual about Wu's envoy."

   "Where's Princess Jing'an?" he asked again.

   "As soon as I returned to the mansion, the princess personally led someone to set up the mourning hall, and then stayed by the prince's side, and didn't go anywhere."

   Xuanyuan Qi frowned: "Continue to stare."

"Yes."

   Eunuch Wu almost thought he was hallucinating. His Majesty made people stare at Wu's envoys, but why should people stare at Princess Jing'an?

   Could it be that His Majesty suspects that the death of the prince has something to do with the princess?

  God, he knows so much, won't he be silenced?

   But he has no money to buy his life!

   Xuanyuan Qi didn't know what he was thinking. After he finished the command, he leaned back on the dragon chair tiredly, staring at a certain place with dark eyes.

   At this moment, the inner servant's voice came from outside: "Your Majesty, the imperial kitchen has brought lunch."

   Xuanyuan Qi closed his eyes.

   Eunuch Wu thought for a while, and bravely stepped forward to persuade: "Your Majesty, the real culprit who killed the prince has not yet been found, so you can't fall down first."

   Seeing that he had no objection, Eunuch Wu hurriedly went out and brought in the maid who delivered the meal.

   Xuanyuan Qi doesn't like extravagance and waste. The people in the imperial kitchen know this, and the meals prepared for him on weekdays are as simple as possible.

   But today, as soon as the food box was opened, Eunuch Wu was angry: "Be bold, the imperial kitchen will send this kind of thing to His Majesty?"

  I saw a bowl with a clear bottom in the food box... Let's just call it porridge, but it also sank a few grains of rice.

   In addition, a plate of green cabbage was added. The leaves of the cabbage are still yellow, not to mention, there are not many pieces in total.

   The waiter who delivered the meal was also dumbfounded, and hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Injustice, wronged, this, this..."

  The food he put in the food box is obviously not these.

   Xuanyuan Qi looked over and frowned: "What is this?"

  Thinking that he walked away for a while after filling the food box, the waiter in the food delivery hurriedly said: "This, this should be the servant who took the wrong food box."

   Eunuch Wu sternly reprimanded: "The imperial pantry has always provided meals for His Majesty and the Empress Dowager. You said it was wrong. Do you mean that it was originally intended for the Empress Dowager?"

  The concubines in the harem either opened a small kitchen in their own palace, or they were provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It was impossible for them to be wrong.

   Besides, that's all... not to mention the concubines and concubines of the harem, even the servants like them can't eat it.

   "But slave... slave..." The waiter in the meal delivery trembled and was speechless.

  The imperial palace is a place that eats people. If it is not good, it is easy to lose one's life.

   Not to mention when he ran into Xuanyuan Qi when he was in a bad mood.

   Impatiently listening to his explanation, Xuanyuan Qi closed his eyes again.

   "Drag down..." The word stick and death came to his mouth, and he paused for some reason.

   "Go down," he said.

   Eunuch Wu was astonished, when did His Majesty become so... good to talk?

   saved his life, and the waiter kowtowed several times: "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you Your Majesty."

   Afraid that Xuanyuan Qi would retort at some point, he did not dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly exited with the food box.

   "Wu Zhengde." Xuanyuan Qi knocked on the imperial case: "Go and check, what food did the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepare for the girl surnamed Shen."

   Eunuch Wu was slightly startled, and replied that he was going to do it.

   As the general manager of the big inner circle, the popular person beside the monarch, there are many people in the palace who are flattering to Eunuch Wu. Besides, this is not a difficult thing to investigate.

   Not long after, Eunuch Wu came back with a complicated look.

"Say."

   "If the old slave guessed correctly, it should be Mrs. Song who changed His Majesty's food box."

  The palace is mostly people who watch the dishes and order the dishes. Knowing why Mrs. Song was kept in the palace, she...

   "Huh." Xuanyuan Qi sneered: "I don't know that there are still people in this palace who dare to be my master."

  If he didn't find out this time, what else would they dare to do in these five days?

   "Go and find out who had the idea and find a way to deal with it."

   Eunuch Wu understood, no matter what the reason was, the crime could not be because of the harsh treatment of Mrs. Song.

   I can't help but secretly think that those people are really mindless. No matter what, Madam Song is the daughter of the prince. As long as she is not convicted for a day, it is not something they can bully.

   "It's not good, it's not good." Just as Eunuch Wu left, a servant hurried in.

   Xuanyuan Qi's eyes suddenly turned cold.

   The inner servant knelt down tremblingly and said, "Song... Mrs. Song smashed to death the crane that the county master gave to the queen mother."

   Xuanyuan Qi:  …

  ————

   The prince who can't eat: I don't know if the palace will prepare meals for the daughter-in-law, oh.

  Jiajia: Won’t you give me food? I grab it myself.

   Monarch: If you stole my meal, why did you smash the cranes of the mother queen to death?

  Shen Yijia, who was told by the Prime Minister to let her have a good time: I'm not full!
