2431. Chapter 2431 The mystery of Xiao Xian's life experience [45]
Concubine Xie was stunned for a moment, remembering what she and Prince Yan had said before. Could it be that someone knew about it, so now someone is trying to silence it?
if it is like this……
Shen Mingzhu saw that her face was not very good, so she said with concern: "Taifei, it doesn't matter. People have gone to Jingzhao Mansion and Dali Temple. They will find out soon. There is no need to worry, Taifei."
Concubine Xie was still scared, she shook her head gently and the corners of her lips twitched slightly.
Shen Mingzhu stood up and poured her a glass of warm water to calm her down.
Concubine Xie raised her head and looked at Shen Mingzhu, "Mingzhu, tell me, do you think they will doubt me? After all, the prince has been coming to the palace frequently these days, and I am very annoyed. Maybe it will arouse people's suspicion."
Shen Mingzhu smiled and said: "Don't worry, Princess. Although he is not welcome to the Princess, this is not your motive for killing him. Besides, the Princess is a kind person. If someone comes to make excessive demands, you have no choice but to do so."
I promised to help, so how could I have thought of this. Princess, don’t worry about it, it has nothing to do with you. I have already gone to the Prince’s Mansion as soon as possible, and his death should be at the hands of someone around him.”
Concubine Xie thought of something and her face became nervous again. She was thinking of the IOU she had given him. In order to prevent him from mentioning Xian'er's affairs in the future, she threatened him with the IOU.
She helped him request an order to confer Xiao Yu as a Marquis, and then he was not allowed to mention what happened back then, and it had to be kept secret.
In this case, will the IOU be searched? If it is discovered, if someone investigates it, I wonder if the matter will be found.
"Taifei, do you have any clues against Prince Yan?" Shen Mingzhu asked.
Concubine Xie opened her mouth, but didn't know how to say it, so she shook her head, "How could it be? He just came to ask for help, and he insisted that I ask your majesty to give Xiao Yu a title, so as not to save his own son a hundred years later.
Without support, he can’t afford much incense.”
Shen Mingzhu nodded, "I know this too. He wrote the letter to me before. I asked him to talk about the affairs of the palace. Originally, I wanted him not to bother the concubine again, so that the prince would not know about it.
There's going to be trouble."
She paused and then said: "Please don't blame me, Princess. I concealed this matter at the time."
Concubine Xie did not expect that things would change so quickly and that Shen Mingzhu would be involved. She said anxiously: "They won't doubt you, right?"
If people suspect that Shen Mingzhu killed Prince Yan just to vent his anger on the concubine, it might be possible.
Shen Mingzhu shook her head and comforted: "Don't be nervous, Princess. I didn't do anything, so I'm naturally not afraid of ghosts calling the door. Besides, I just don't want him to harass the Princess. I just want to scare him. Why kill him?"
Well, it’s nothing at all. But I asked him not to disturb the concubine at will in the future without her permission. But he made a few requests and wanted me to help the concubine petition your majesty and give him a sum of money.
I just protect him on a daily basis, there is no other problem. I am not afraid to tell Dali Temple these things, so the concubine does not have to worry."
Concubine Xie knew what Shen Mingzhu was capable of, and she was relieved when she saw how easy it was for her to speak, "That's good, so as not to be relied upon by someone who wants to take advantage of him. I'm curious, if he is so poor now, who else would kill him?"
