"The Queen of Heaven..."
Jiang Chuan stood behind her, wearing a dark purple eunuch uniform that made him look more elegant: "Mu Qianqian died, and her body was sent to Dali Temple."
Jiang Xinyue didn't even raise her head, looking at the "battle situation" on the table, and tentatively threw out a Yaoji: "Let the Ministry of Punishment investigate carefully, who does Mu Qianqian belong to?"
Jiang Chuan hesitated for a moment, looked at the other three empresses, and then said: "When she was killed by the assassin today, the human skin mask fell off her face. Empress, she does not look very similar to you. It’s done with paint.”
Concubine Shu's hand trembled, and the flowering rooster head she was planning to put on her hand fell onto Jiang Xinyue's rooster. She had no time to take care of it, and widened her innocent eyes: "Skin painting? Could it be a martial art? It’s a popular skin-painting technique of skinning living people to make human skin masks, right?”
Jiang Chuan nodded: "That's exactly what Concubine Shu said."
Liang Fei grinned when she heard this, and even touched her face, as if she had been skinned.
The ability to empathize is a bit too strong.
Ye Guiren's expression didn't improve much, and he stopped playing cards. He held his face and said, "Skin...skin a living person? How could there be such a disgusting person?"
The wages of avarice is death.
As long as people have desires, they can do any incredible thing for their own desires.
None of the people sitting here dare to pat their chests and say that they have not done anything bad.
Even Jiang Xinyue doesn't think she is a kind person.
She is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve her goals.
It's just that she has a bottom line and can stick to her true heart, not make a deal with the devil or sell her soul.
"Skin painting..."
Jiang Xinyue recited silently, which touched upon her blind spot of knowledge.
But it doesn't matter. There is no shortage of professional talents under the Jiang family. It is of course better to let people from the Criminal Department handle matters like solving cases.
"Let Ma Yiyang go to Dali Temple in person and tell the Dali Temple Minister that Mu Qianqian is also a member of the harem. Although he has no status, he has served the emperor after all. I cannot sit idly by and ignore this case. This case is different from the assassination case. I The palace needs to find out who painted Mu Qianqian's skin."
"To find out."
Concubine Liang nodded in agreement: "The man's skin-painting skills are so superb and he painted the face of the empress so much. He must be someone who often sees the empress in the palace. He can't be someone who is around the three of us!"
As soon as these words came out, Concubine Shu and Ye Guiren quickly observed the maids and eunuchs around them, hugging themselves tightly with their hands in a state of self-protection, their eyes full of fear.
Jiang Xinyue watched the two of them playing tricks and couldn't help complaining: "Persecuted paranoia! If they are face-cutting monsters, then my face has been peeled off countless times."
The people serving in Kunning Palace are all the Queen of Heaven's people.
Just like she said, if it had been done by someone from Kunning Palace, that person would have peeled off the empress's face and put it on his own.
Only in this way will the emperor see the fake and miss the moonlight.
"ah!"
Only then did Concubine Shu see the chicken she had dropped on the table, and cried out: "My penis is blooming... Damn face-cutting monster..."
"It can't be taken back."
Liang Fei grabbed her dishonest hand and said, "You have made a decision on the gambling table and left it with no regrets. Do you still want to take the cards back?"
Concubine Shu could only look sad, and reluctantly put her cheating hand back under the table.
Qingyang Palace——
"Bang!"
Jin Guibi was knocked to the ground by a heavy object, and the Gong bucket in her hand fell to the ground with a dull sound.
The blood soaked into the cracks of the bluestone road, dyeing the soil black and red.
"Ah wu wu wu..."
The cry of the seventh prince broke the tranquility of Kunning Palace, and the lights in the palace lit up one after another.
"Ahhh...dead...dead!"
"Jin Gui's concubine...Jin Gui's concubine is dead!"
Before Jiang Xinyue finished her breakfast, the servants from Qingyang Palace brought Hui Yuan, who was in tears, to Kunning Palace.
"You wait here for now. The Queen of Heaven is still having breakfast. She will summon you later."
Hui Yuan nodded, her face full of gratitude, and her eyes were bloodshot from crying. The palace maid was so moved by her crying that she patted her shoulder to comfort her.
After the meal, Prince Xi and the Crown Prince were about to go to the library to listen to Master Jing's class. When Jiang Chuan and Xiao Xiangzi came in, the two little ones had already finished eating.
They bowed to Jiang Xinyue in a decent manner: "Queen Mother, my sons and ministers are full, and I would like to bid farewell to the Queen Mother."
After jumping to the door, the little prince poked his head out from behind the door: "Mother, see you in the evening. Please don't let Rourou and Yuanyuan go to bed too early. They have to wait for me to come back."
The youngest prince turned into two little fleshy brothers overnight. He has become addicted to being an older brother recently. Every day when he comes back from the library, he bullies his younger siblings to show his majesty as an older brother.
After the two young highnesses left, Jiang Chuan and Xiao Xiangzi looked at each other and whispered: "Empress, Imperial Concubine Jin was found dead in the palace of Qingyang Palace by her personal maid this morning. Her body became stiff. ”
That was a pretty miserable death.
A dignified princess of a country died in the most filthy place in the palace, and she was discovered after she was completely dead.
She nodded understandingly: "What are you saying now?"
Mu Qianqian had just died, and it was discovered that her face was made of painted skin.
By such a coincidence, the Goguryeo princess who was best at makeup died.
Jiang Xinyue knew with her toes that this was another conspiracy. If it was not targeting the person behind the scenes who really knew how to paint skin, it must be targeting her.
Xiao Xiangzi did not hesitate and replied first: "People in the palace are spreading rumors that Jin Gui's concubine hated you for punishing her and ordered the palace people to bully her, so she deliberately found one among the newly promoted beautiful girls who has the same appearance as you. Somewhat similar, her skin was changed. This aroused your dissatisfaction, so you killed the person who changed her skin."
Look, look!
She knew that even if it had nothing to do with her, those people would try their best to discredit her.
Xiao Xiangzi saw her expression and said hurriedly: "The news came from Qingyang Palace, and the slaves have taken control of it immediately, but after all, Qingyang Palace was the first to discover it, and there are still some rumors. ”
"The good concubine really hit the mark by mistake. The person who changed his skin is right next to me."
"He is someone very close to me!"
Jiangchuan was puzzled: "What does the empress mean..."
The person who knows how to change skin is hiding in Kunning Palace?
That was too scary.
In other words, are the people around them really still the same people who shared weal and woe before?
Could it be that he had been killed, and the person carrying the skin now was the real culprit who had ulterior motives for their mother-in-law?
