"It's really a big pawn for this guy." Sang Qian was stomping her feet in a hurry, and at the same time she quickly began to think about how to deal with the aftermath.
In her capacity, King Qi would probably not kill her, but rushing to the palace at night to plot a misconduct is a major event, and it is impossible to go on the line and kill her head into exile.
My father finally got back up, and he probably lost his office because of this. After all, in the eyes of others, his father was a firm royalist.
King Qi might even use this as a threat to win over the Sang family to join the line of King Qi, so that the Sang family would be completely passive.
She was about to confess to Zuan and teach him how to make the crime lighter when he was caught later, who knew that the other party took him and jumped into the pool on the side.
Sang Qian thought to herself what was the use, the guards in the palace were all experienced people, and such a big movement in the water would definitely disturb them.
But she was shocked right away, the two fell into the water and there was a slight noise!
She recalled the details just now. When the two entered the water, the surface of the water seemed to be pushed apart by a pair of invisible hands, and a gap was automatically separated. Then after the two were submerged in the water, the surface of the water naturally closed. Looking up from below, the surface of the water did not produce any ripples. .
What surprised her even more was that she was already ready to hold her breath, and even wondered what to do if the other party didn't get enough breath later and wanted to get her breath together.
To refuse or not to refuse
After all, those romantic stories have many such plots.
"What are you staring at my mouth for?" Zuan's puzzled voice rang.
"Who...who is staring at your mouth." Sang Qian flushed and hurriedly turned her face away.
But she was stunned immediately, because she didn't feel drowning at all. The surroundings were empty with fresh air, and the two of them seemed to be in a transparent blister.
"This... what's the situation?" Sang Qian was shocked. At this time, the guards on patrol had already walked nearby. She was worried that her voice would be exposed, so she had to approach Zuan's ear and whispered. The girl was really exasperated.
"Is Sister Qian'er teasing me when she is so close? I have a family." Zu An also leaned into her ear and whispered back.
Sang Qian: "..."
She seemed to be a frightened rabbit and pushed him away instantly, pulling them apart.
Why isn't this guy going to die
After the guards left, Zu An grabbed Sang Qian and floated out of the water.
Feeling that there was no water stains on her body, Sang Qian couldn't care about getting angry, and asked quietly, "How did you do it?"
"Secret." Zuan smiled. Of course, all this is due to the effect of the blue water element affinity, but he could be used in this way or Mili taught him. In the late stage of the secret realm, Mili fell into a deep sleep and didn't know how to recover. How's it going
Sang Qian puffed up her small mouth, this guy really made people have the urge to take a bite.
But then her mood was quickly replaced by admiration, I saw that Zuan sometimes took her to walk slowly, sometimes took her to leap quickly, sometimes even a while ago and a while later... But this is a series of operations. After coming down, the two of them had never been discovered by the royal guards.
Soon the two came to a remote yard, where white lanterns were hung around, and a lot of paper money, dead branches and fallen leaves were scattered on the ground.
A big inscription in the center looked gloomy under the dim candlelight.
During the day, Zu'an had asked his subordinates to inquire about it, and this was the place where the coffin on the side of King Qi was parked.
According to the customs of this world, the soul will remain in the world for a period of time after death and cannot be buried immediately.
Only on the seventh day after death, that is, the first seven days, the soul will go home and have a look, then will it enter the cycle of reincarnation.
That is, at least seven days have passed before the burial.
Counting it down, today is exactly the seventh day after the death of King Qi's side concubine.
"Why is there no one in the yard?" Sang Qian was cautious, but she looked around and found that there was no one in the mourning hall. She couldn't help asking.
"Because today is the first seven of King Qi's side concubine." Zuan used Jade Cong to control the small animals around and checked. There was indeed no one nearby, and he was relieved.
Sang Qian immediately understood that the ancient custom believes that the soul of the deceased will return home in the "first seven", and the family should prepare a meal for the soul of the deceased before the soul returns, and then must avoid it; if the soul of the deceased is allowed to see his family or other familiar People will make her remember and affect her reincarnation as a human being.
She couldn't help but glanced at Zu'an. Although this person is careless, but with such a delicate mind, it is no wonder that he will choose to investigate the remains of the side concubine today.
Zuan came to the mourning hall, with a huge coffin in the center. After all, the other party was the prince's woman, and these details would not be wronged to her.
He stretched out his hand and felt it on the surface of the coffin, and then he was shocked. He directly shook the nails that sealed the coffin out, and then opened the coffin to one side: "Sister Qian'er, it's your turn."
As soon as the lid of the coffin was opened, a chill came oncoming, as if it was a big freezer inside.
Inside, the side concubine Qi Wang lay quietly, with beautiful appearance and lifelike whole person.
He immediately understood that this coffin should be a magic circle engraved with a cold storage effect, so as to keep the opponent's body from decay. I have to say that all aspects of the lives of these powerful and powerful people are very luxurious.
Sang Qian gave him a white glance, apparently blaming him for his rudeness, and hurriedly ran to the coffin with her hands folded and saluted: "No wonder the princess, we just want to find out the truth about your death, so that you will be unfairly ill."
She came to the coffin to check it after she was done. She couldn't help but sigh when she saw the other party: "The concubine is so young and beautiful. It's a shameless beauty."
Zuan smiled: "I think she is not as pretty as Sister Qian'er."
"Bah, greasy mouth and tongue." Sang Qian took a sip, but she didn't feel any anger in her heart. On the contrary, the corners of her lips rose slightly. It was obvious that women like to listen to compliments.
Hey, how can my eldest brother be able to fight him with his male chauvinistic appearance on weekdays? No wonder his sister-in-law...
She raised the hand of King Qi’s side concubine while she began to make judgments: “When most people drown, they are nervous before death, struggling hurriedly, scratching with both hands, and there will be water plants, sand and other things embedded in the nails, but she does not have it. Of course, it is also possible that the man in the palace cleaned her up when she was embarrassed. But I also checked her mouth and nose just now, and there was no red foam, which is one of the most important characteristics of a drowning person."
While talking, he began to untie the dress for the side concubine Qi, and suddenly realized something in the middle of the solution, and looked back at Zuan.
Zuan knows how to turn around immediately. He has no necrophilia and doesn't want to see the body of the dead, even if the other person still looks as beautiful as before.
After a while, Sang Qian’s voice came again: "Although his palms, soles and body skin are wrinkled and white, it is not serious. It should be that the time soaked in water is not too long. There is almost no sand in her mouth and nose, so in general, she was thrown into the pool after death and made the illusion of drowning."
"Unsurprisingly," Zuan nodded, "Then what is the real cause of her death?"
Sang Qian replied: "I checked her whole body, and there was no trauma, and there was no sign of poisoning, but her eyes did show signs of bleeding. No accident should have been a head injury, and she was treated with tenderness. It directly hurt the inside of the brain, but she was a dignified concubine of Prince Qi, how could she be killed like this in the heavily guarded Prince Qi mansion."
Zuan sighed: "Actually, only that person can do this."
Sang Qian was about to say something, Zuan's expression suddenly changed: "A team of guards are coming here."
"Could it be that we were discovered?" Sang Qian asked in amazement.
"It should not be." Zuan shook his head. Seeing Sang Qian anxiously trying to escape from the other side window, he hurriedly pulled the other person, "It's too late."
After speaking, she jumped into the coffin directly, and the people outside entered the house almost as soon as the coffin lid was closed.
