As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Shang saw Su Qi and the Seventh Prince walking out of the palace gate together. Yun Shang narrowed his eyes slightly, lowered his head and said, "Su Qi and the Seventh Prince are out."
The Duke's wife was stunned and stretched her hand out of the window. The brocade handkerchief in her hand floated down. Then the Duke's wife spoke with a somewhat excited voice, "Don't say these words of condolences to me.
I just want to know whether the person in the coffin is my grandson's wife. Although His Majesty has confirmed it, I don't believe it. I heard that Your Majesty once praised Mr. Li for his ability in solving cases, so I want to ask Mr. Li to help me.
Let's find out who is the person who tried every possible means to harm Princess Rui. If we find out who that person is, we, the Duke of Hua, will fight him to the death."
Yun Shang bent down and picked up the brocade handkerchief on the ground, handed it to the Duke's wife, and said softly, "Madam..."
The Duke's wife snorted coldly, took the brocade handkerchief and said in a loud voice, "Let's go."
The groom quickly looked at Li Qianmo and said apologetically, "Master Li, could you please make way for me, Master Li?"
Li Qianmo quickly stood aside, the coachman raised his whip, and the carriage slowly drove towards the main road.
As soon as the Duke's wife's car drove away, the voice of the Seventh Prince rang out, "Master Li."
Li Qianmo frowned, turned around quickly, looked at the palace entrance, walked up to the Seventh Prince in three steps, and saluted, "Seventh Prince."
The Seventh Prince smoothed his sleeves, raised his eyes lightly, glanced at Li Qianmo and said, "Looking at this, Master Li has made the Duke's wife angry?"
Li Qianmo quickly raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his forehead, nodded and said, "Yes. Just now, the official came out and saw the Duke's wife's carriage parked there, and there seemed to be a sound of sobbing coming from inside. The official thought
Just now when His Majesty told Prince Rui's Mansion to prepare the funeral arrangements, the Duke's wife looked a little bad, so she wanted to come over and persuade the Duke's wife to let her mourn and accept the funeral. Unexpectedly, she went to scold me, it was really...
..." Before he finished speaking, Li Qianmo just sighed softly, seemingly with a bit of dissatisfaction.
Su Qi stood aside and smiled coldly, "What's the matter? Concubine Shen Shu is now at the end of her strength and has no one to rely on. She has decided to go to the Duke's Mansion? Don't think about it carefully. The Duke of Hua is Prince Rui's maternal grandfather.
How could he join forces with that bastard woman?" There was a hint of sarcasm in his voice.
Li Qianmo's face changed slightly, and after being silent for a long time, she responded in a low voice, "Concubine Shen Shu and Xiaguan had the grace to meet each other, but Xiaguan also knew that the harem and the former dynasty should not be involved, and Xiaguan has always been cautious.
Keep your duty and ask Taiwei Su to pay attention to your words. No matter how unbearable Concubine Shen Shu is, she is still His Majesty's concubine and concubine Shu... And how Empress Hua went there back then, I'm afraid, the Queen and the Taiwei
I also know it well. By the way, when something happened to Empress Hua, Concubine Shen Shu was still serving the Empress."
When Su Qi heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he looked at Li Qianmo with a bit of murderous intent in his eyes. The Seventh Prince on the side seemed to be watching a big show, watching with a smile on his face, seeing that Su Qi seemed to be angry.
, then spoke, "What are you two doing? They are both officials in the same dynasty and serve their father, so why should they be so tit-for-tat?"
When Li Qianmo heard this, he lowered his eyes, lowered his eyebrows and said calmly, "I have some matters to deal with, so I left first. Seventh Prince, Lieutenant Su, please excuse me." After saying that, he turned around and got into his carriage.
After returning to Li Mansion, Yun Shang asked the doubt that had been lingering in her heart just now, "You just said that the death of Queen Hua seemed to be related to the Queen and Taiwei Su?"
Li Qianmo was stunned when he heard the words, and then remembered what he and Taiwei Su had just said, and said quickly, "I'm just talking nonsense, but when I heard Su Qi mention Concubine Shen Shu and Duke Hua, I remembered the story of Empress Hua."
If you want to die, just say that as a matter of course. In fact, Concubine Shen Shu does not fully trust her subordinates, so how can she tell her such secret things to her subordinates."
Hearing this, Yun Shang knocked on the table, narrowed her eyes, and talked nonsense. Just looking at Su Qi's reaction just now, it seemed that the incident was really related to them.
In the evening, the secret guard came to report that the queen had sent someone to the imperial mausoleum.
Yun Shang didn't flip through the book in her hand for a long time. She kept thinking about what she was doing in the imperial mausoleum at this juncture. She went over the recent events in her mind, but still had no clue, so she had to ask the secret guard to continue staring.
Report any news to her at any time.
Early on the next morning, Yun Shang quietly followed the servants purchased by the Li Mansion out of the house and walked in front of Prince Rui's Mansion. White soul-inducing flowers had been hung at the door of Prince Rui's Mansion, and the obituary had been posted on the door.
At the door, Yun Shang saw many people gathered around the obituary to look at it, so she also squeezed past, but her eyes were always paying attention to what was going on around her.
There are two beggars sitting about ten meters away from the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion, but the shoes they wear are clean and tidy. Not far away on the other side is a vendor selling bean curds, and his movements are not very skillful.
.
Yun Shang smiled coldly, turned around and left.
I'm afraid that the person who was chasing her that day knew that she was not dead, but couldn't find her for a while, so they thought of this method to lure her out.
Thinking about it, she had just experienced an assassination and had gone through a lot of hardships to escape, but what she didn't want to hear was the news of her own death. If she were an ordinary person, she would definitely jump out and tell everyone that she was still alive.
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, but it was a pity that the person behind the scenes was obviously not very familiar with her temperament. What she was best at was patience. She could smile and pretend to treat her enemies like that in her previous life.
Nothing has ever happened, let alone just knowing the news of his own death. Isn't it just that he is more patient than anyone else? She can just accompany him.
Occasionally, news came from the Ya clan about those deformed babies, which caused an uproar within the Ya clan. Those who had left deformed babies only knew that they had given birth to them. At that time, they were panicked and hurriedly
I asked the clan leader to deal with it, but he probably swore a poisonous oath and kept it secret. But I didn't expect that the forbidden area would be burned down like this, but it would burn out such a big baby pit.
And on the second day after those pits were discovered, a stone tablet suddenly appeared next to it, with only eight words written on it, "Those who seek rebellion will be punished by God."
For a time, it caused continuous civil strife in the Ya clan.
Princess Rui's condolences are still continuing, and there has been an endless stream of people going to Prince Rui's Mansion to offer incense in the past few days.
On the fifth day after Yun Shang returned to Jincheng, Yun Shang also knew why the queen sent people to the imperial mausoleum. (To be continued)
