If Empress Dowager Zhou were to know that Princess Zhaorong had been killed at this time, Empress Dowager Zhou would definitely be shocked and sad, and she would be greatly irritated again.
What's more, this matter was obviously framed by someone deliberately, trying to pin the charge of killing Princess Zhaorong on Shen Ning.
Mo Chuan himself absolutely did not believe that Shen Ning could be the murderer, but that didn't mean that others didn't believe it, and it didn't mean that Queen Mother Zhou didn't believe it.
When almost everyone sees this scene, especially the bloody words Zhao Rong left before his death, they will conclude that the murderer must be Shen Ning!
Because dead men don't lie.
Xiao Si and Zhui Feng hurriedly ordered the guards to take away the group of eunuchs and maids.
But it's too late.
"Such a big event happened in the palace, does the emperor still want to hide it from the Ai family?"
A majestic old voice rang from not far away, it was Queen Mother Zhou.
Mo Chuan's eyebrows suddenly tightened.
Mother came back so quickly!
This thing is even weirder.
From the time when the palace people screamed outside and the discovery of the body, there was not even time for a cup of tea, and it took at least half a cup of tea to get from Shoukang Palace to Guanju Palace.
This is enough to show that after the body was discovered, someone immediately rushed to Shoukang Palace to inform the Empress Dowager Zhou.
This person who tipped off the information is very suspicious!
Mo Chuan's eyes immediately swept over the people following Queen Mother Zhou.
In addition to Su Jin and Eunuch Kang, there were several old faces from Shoukang Palace, and no one looked suspicious at first glance.
"Mother."
Mo Chuan stepped forward to help Queen Mother Zhou get out of the sedan chair, and then closed her mouth.
Empress Dowager Zhou held Mo Chuan's hand, but her body was trembling. Obviously, the news of Princess Zhaorong's death had shocked her so much that she still can't come back to her senses, and she can't believe what she heard. fact.
Zhaorong is dead
How could Zhaorong die
Isn't she in the Ningguo Duke's mansion just fine
How could he die in the palace
When she heard the bad news, Queen Mother Zhou's first reaction was that she was dreaming, and then she became angry. How could someone be so vicious as to curse Zhaorong and even curse her to death!
But then she realized that no one dared to lie to her, and no one dared to curse Princess Zhaorong in front of her.
So this is true
Was Zhaorong really killed
Just die outside the palace wall of Guanju Palace
Empress Dowager Zhou walked over tremblingly until she reached the body of Princess Zhaorong. She held Mo Chuan's hand tightly, but closed her eyes and did not dare to look.
Taking a deep breath, she finally opened her eyes.
"Shoei!"
As soon as she saw the face of the corpse, Queen Mother Zhou let out a loud cry and stepped back in disbelief.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?"
"Who killed Zhaorong? Who was it?"
"It's you, isn't it!"
Queen Mother Zhou asked three questions in a row, then suddenly turned around and stared directly at Shen Ning, her eyes full of disgust and hatred.
Shen Ning looked as usual and said calmly: "It's not me."
"Who are you? Zhaorong died outside your Guanju Palace, how dare you argue?" Empress Dowager Zhou's voice was stern. If Mo Chuan hadn't grabbed her hand hard, she would have wanted to rush towards Shen Ning.
Shen Ning said calmly: "Queen Mother, please calm down. Zhaorong was indeed killed outside Guanju Palace, but there were so many people inside and outside Guanju Palace, including palace maids and eunuchs. Why did the Queen Mother know for sure that it was me?" Kill Zhaorong?"
"You... are sharp-tongued! Who else has a grudge against Zhaorong except you! No one else will harm her except you!" Queen Mother Zhou was choked by her question, and then became furious.
