Chapter 97

East Palace.

The prince paced anxiously, feeling faintly flustered when he thought of the two female corpses that Ji Anmin brought back from Yizhuang.

"Call Zheng Quan to Gu!"

He shouldn't be afraid. Most of the women who brought Fang Yuan were unrelated and unreasonable people. After they died, there were special people who stripped their faces off with special methods, and after removing their jewelry and clothing, they sent them to Yi Zhuang for burning in secret. Someone will recognize their identities, and there have been no mistakes over the years.

However, the old eunuch who went to Dali Temple to deliver the message said that the Dali Temple Minister promised well, but two or three days passed, but there has been no news of the death of the Sun brothers. On the contrary, Xing Prison of Dali Temple is guarded so that no water leaks, not even a fly can fly in.

Suppressing the irritability in his heart, the prince reluctantly took a sip of tea when he saw Zheng Quan came in with a hunched waist: "His Royal Highness."

If Sister Shen and Brother Sun were here, they would definitely recognize that this old eunuch was the one who came back to pick up people or deliver corpses.

"Are you sure all the corpses of those sluts have been cleaned up?" The prince stared at him sullenly.

"This... yes." The old eunuch bent over, stared at the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then gave a positive answer.

"You just need to determine the answer! Are you sure they've all dealt with it? It's better to think about it before answering!"

A cup of hot tea smashed his head on the head of the old eunuch, pouring tea on his face. The old eunuch knelt down on the ground, tremblingly kowtowed: "In the past two years, the old slave watched them burn with his own eyes, but... I just got familiar with it later and knew that the Sun brothers were doing things properly, and it happened that there were still things at hand. Right, just, just…”

"You didn't stare yourself?" The prince squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.

"Your Highness, spare your life!" The old eunuch, familiar with his temperament, was so frightened that he kowtowed repeatedly.

The crown prince looked at him like a dead man, and with a wave of his hand, two guards stepped forward and dragged him down: "It's hard to keep you, and the old aunts who brought Fang Yuan also cleaned up together. , don't leave the beginning and end."

The guards took orders, and the prince's heart eased a little, remembering that the princess was also aware of this, so she turned around and went to the palace of the prince.

The crown princess has not yet settled down in this child, and has been raising the child these days. When the prince passed by, he saw a sedan car parked in the front yard again. He frowned and asked the guards on both sides: "Prince Princess invited that Taoist aunt again?"

Guard: "Yes. Every five or six days, I have to invite you back."

The prince was displeased, and his face darkened a bit. Emperor Anqing recruited many Taoist priests for the longevity technique, but he almost lost his life instead of increasing his lifespan. Therefore, he disliked these Taoist priests very much. It's just that the Crown Princess was pregnant, and he didn't rest here often, so he endured these tricky ox noses and entered the East Palace repeatedly, as if he was accompanying the Crown Princess to relieve the boredom.

It's just that his patience is limited.

He strode to the dormitory, but saw that the two maids who were serving the Crown Princess were waiting outside. Seeing him coming, they looked a little flustered, so they wanted to salute. The prince raised his hand to signal that they did not have to bow, and walked to the inner hall.

Incense was burning in the inner hall, and behind the curtains, the Crown Princess sat opposite a tall and thin Taoist nun, discussing the Tao in a soft voice.

Seeing the prince coming, the concubine just got up and saluted: "Didn't your highness say that you are busy these few days and won't come?"

"I want you to tell me something." Glancing at the books that were spread out, the prince sneered, "When did the crown princess start to believe this?"

The Crown Princess sat down and whispered softly: "These days, I'm restless, please ask the real person to teach the scriptures for my concubine, so I can calm down a little."

The prince's eyes turned around the Taoist nun. After the other party came in from him, he kept his head down and said nothing. He tapped the table with his finger, and the prince said, "Aren't you all very proud of you who cultivate? Are you afraid of looking at loneliness?"

The Taoist nun raised her head when she heard the words, her voice was a little hoarse: "Pindao is just afraid of bumping into the prince."

This voice... The prince's brows were furrowed, and his eyes fell on her, only to see that the aunt was tall and thin, not to mention the curves of a woman, and even her hands were thick-boned, as if—

The prince's eyes narrowed, and he leaned forward abruptly and pulled away her tightly wrapped collar. When he saw the obvious protruding Adam's apple, he only felt a surge of anger rushing to the sky, and slapped the princess with his backhand: "Slut !"

The Crown Princess screamed and was about to say something when she heard the Crown Prince call someone in with a gloomy face: "Take this traitor—" He paused, then changed his words: "Drag this traitor down and beat him to death! Keep his mouth shut!"

"His Royal Highness!" The Crown Princess looked flustered: "His Royal Highness spare your life!"

The man disguised as a Taoist nun had already been gagged and dragged down. He seemed to want to struggle, but the two guards were holding him and couldn't break free, so he could only be dragged down abruptly.

"Bitch," the prince said with a grim face, grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up: "How dare you beg for mercy for him?"

The crown princess waved his hand in vain, and when Bai was out of breath, the crown prince threw her to the ground like a furious beast.

"Dare to steal love under Gu's eyelids?" The prince bent down and pinched her chin. His voice sounded like a demon, soft and cold: "Tell me, what are you doing here every day?"

The Crown Princess was forced to look up at him, the weakness on her face gradually faded, her eyes and brows were full of admiration, and she said with a smirk: "What is a man and a woman doing on the bed, doesn't Your Highness know?"

"Blue Gourd Sword Fairy"

"The concubine is pregnant with His Highness's seed and is happy with other men on this bed."

Forcefully breaking open the hand holding her chin, she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and stood up staggeringly: "The man outside is very considerate and gentle on the bed, unlike His Royal Highness, if you don't take medicine, you will be afraid Don't you dare to share the room with me?"

"Who would have thought that His Royal Highness, a wise and martial prince, can only be a man by abusing women? It's really wronging His Highness to have sex with a concubine on weekdays." She covered her mouth and smiled tenderly.

The most humiliating secret was revealed, the prince's face twisted for a while, and he pinched her neck again, with killing intent in his eyes: "You... seek... death!"

The crown princess was breathing hard, but she didn't show weakness at all, her eyes widened and she said: "Your Highness better kill me now. Call it the queen dowager in the palace, call it Manchao Wenwu, call it all people in the world, all know it. The prince of a country is actually worse than a beast!"

"Do you think you are alone?" The prince's chest heaved and his fingers tightened.

"Kill you!" The Crown Princess roared, "I've had enough! You are a beast! Monster! Do you know how I feel when I look at you every day? I just feel sick!"

"Bitch!"

The prince threw her to the ground, her pale face twitched uncontrollably, but he didn't kill her immediately. Finally, he glanced at the paralyzed Crown Princess, and the Crown Prince turned to go out, and a voice came from outside the hall: "Continue to beat, kill the body and chop it up to feed the dogs."

The Crown Princess got up from the ground, staggered and chased out, looking at the man in the yard who had stopped moving like a bloody man, and said hoarsely: "Xiao Qi'an, you will have retribution, I will wait to see you being killed by thousands of cuts. Cut that day!"

The guards in the yard didn't seem to have heard these words, only the servant girl who was close to the Crown Princess screamed in panic: "Miss, child!"

The Crown Princess glanced down and saw that the hem of the water-red palace dress had been dyed crimson with blood, and a long blood trail was trailing behind her. She stared at it for a while, then turned to look at the person who was dragged down with blood and flesh, rubbed her stomach numbly and said, "Forget it, I shouldn't have left you. Now that your father is gone, you don't have to follow suffer."

Saying that, he didn't call the imperial doctor, and returned to the inner hall in despair.

"There is no Jurchen in the view?" Xiao Zhige asked curiously, "Where did the Crown Princess invite the Taoist nun?"

"My subordinates look at the appearance and figure of the Taoist nun, but it is similar to a young Taoist priest in the view. Xu is-"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a knock on the study door, and An Changqing's voice came from outside the door: "There is an accident in the East Palace."

Xiao Zhige motioned for the spy to wait aside, and called out to him to come in: "What happened again?" Ji Anmin probably hadn't acted so quickly, right

An Changqing's expression was a bit indescribable: "You can see the letter that Kui Er sent back."

Picking up the letter paper, Xiao Zhige quickly read it, and said with a strange expression: "This crown princess is very courageous." Then he said to the waiting spy, "There is no need to check the identity of the Taoist nun, you go back first."

"Did you ask someone to check that Daoist aunt?" An Changqing was surprised to hear this. He had wanted to find out the adulterer of the Crown Princess, and he might be able to use it in the future, but the spies didn't find anything unusual at all, and since there were too many things later, this matter was temporarily left behind by him.

Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess was so courageous that in broad daylight, she dared to ask the adulterer to pretend to be a Taoist nun and enter the private meeting in the East Palace.

"It's useless to find out, everyone is dead." Xiao Zhige said: "But the princess is afraid that she will hate the prince this time. I asked Kui Er to try to get in touch with her, maybe I can use it."

An Changqing was a little strange: "Why didn't the prince kill her directly? The prince's temperament should not be put down so easily."

Xiao Zhige laughed: "He doesn't dare. Ji Anmin hasn't made any moves here, and if the scandal spreads from the East Palace, he will have no place to turn around. If you don't believe me, there will never be any rumors about this in the East Palace. Come."

Sure enough, just as Xiao Zhige said, news came out from the East Palace the next day, saying that the Crown Princess was worried that the Crown Prince was too worried and would not have a miscarriage.

I heard that the Empress Dowager Zhao and the Empress in the palace took turns to find Emperor Anqing to defend the prince, but Emperor Anqing was also annoying, and this case was not what he wanted to investigate. The people who sued the imperial court came to him, and they just bumped into the hands of the doctor of the imperial censor. If he still insisted on not allowing the investigation, then he should be the emperor who was criticized.

The troubled Anqing Emperor perfunctory said a few words and hid in the palace of Concubine Shu Gui, out of sight and out of mind.

And the prince could only sit in the East Palace, waiting for Ji Anmin's next move - before, whether it was him, the queen or even the queen mother, the people who sent to Dali Temple and Ji's house to inquire about the news were all blocked back. Obviously this time, Dali Temple has reached a consensus with Ji Anmin.

After waiting anxiously for two days, Ji Anmin finally gathered all the witnesses, and asked Emperor Anqing and the prince to move to Dali Temple for the hearing.

Emperor Anqing was not very willing to go, but it was about the prince, so he could only pretend and drive to Dali Temple.

Emperor Anqing and the Crown Prince were sitting in the upper positions, while the two presiding judges were sitting at the bottom, arraigning witnesses in turn.

The further back, the uglier the Anqing Emperor's face became. It was not until the last two female corpses were covered with white cloth that Ji Anmin got up and presented the roster to Emperor Anqing, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please take a look, the corpses of these two women have already been examined, and the roster is exactly on the right side. ."

All the evidence shows that the Sun brothers did not lie, the roster is true, the nineteen women who were tortured and killed are true, and it is true that Donggong was involved.

The prince on the side looked gloomy, and he regretted that he agreed to a thorough investigation at the beginning, but it was too late to regret it, and he could only try to argue for himself.

"It seems that it has something to do with the East Palace at this time. Master Ji knows the name of the old eunuch and ordered someone to arrest him for questioning."

Ji Anmin took a deep look at him and said, "I do have this idea, but the two brothers can't tell the old eunuch's appearance. I don't know if I can ask the prince to show mercy and ask the old minister to take them to the East Palace to identify them."

The prince subconsciously wanted to refuse, and then looked at Emperor Anqing's gloomy face, and could only agree reluctantly: "Yes."

Ji Anmin didn't give him a chance to regret: "Then Prince Lao will lead the way."

Emperor Anqing, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said, "I will walk with you."

The prince was slightly startled, but he could only grit his teeth and smiled.

The group went to the East Palace in a mighty way. The prince asked the chief eunuch to summon all the palace members and let the Sun brothers identify them one by one. Ji Anmin glanced at the palace servants with low eyebrows, and knew that there would be no more old eunuch in this group of people.

He is not in a hurry, the old gods are waiting on the ground for the Sun brothers to recognize people one by one.

Everyone worked for about a cup of tea, and suddenly heard the screams one after another from the inner courtyard.

Ji Anmin got up: "What happened?"

The voice clearly came from the direction of the princess's palace. The prince's expression changed slightly. He didn't want to let them in, so he got up and said, "I tell someone to go and have a look."

But I heard Emperor Anqing say to the eunuch behind him: "You also follow along."

The prince took a step and led them to the inner courtyard.

Ji Anmin sat down again, as if he was not at all curious about the screams coming from the inner courtyard, but Emperor Anqing on the side had a gloomy face and didn't know what he was thinking.

After about half a cup of tea, I saw the eunuch beside the emperor hurried out and said in a panic, "Your Majesty, it's going to happen!"

"What's the matter?" Emperor Anqing looked displeased.

The eunuch wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said tremblingly: "I don't know where the evil dog came from. It broke into the prince's palace with a peeled human face in its mouth, and bumped into the prince..."

"Human face?" Emperor Anqing was startled.

Ji Anmin's eyes flashed, and he said, "This is a strange thing, the women who were killed have also been stripped of their skins, it is better to ask someone to search, in case there are others hiding elsewhere and scaring the Crown Princess. ."

Emperor Anqing was silent, looked at Ji Anmin for a long time, closed his eyes tiredly, and waved his hand: "Forget it, let's check."

"Yes."

Ji Anmin made a look at the people in Dali Temple, and these people filed in and searched the inner courtyard.

Prince: ... you motherfucker!
