It was as if the panic had reached the extreme. Everyone present, whether they were drinking and ordering, singing and dancing girls, or people who were arguing passionately, were all stunned.
The scene of the Qionglin Banquet, which had been extremely noisy just a moment ago, suddenly fell silent.
Not to mention an occasion like today, even in the palace on weekdays, the rules are strict, and if something big happens, there will be no such shouting, "It's bad."
"What's going on?" Emperor Jing frowned slightly.
Immediately some eunuchs looked for the palace maid's screams. Although the eunuchs who looked for her didn't know what happened, Princess Ningyang had been acting a little crazy since she lost her tongue. She was thinking in her heart that she fell into the water again or hit someone.
, or something like going crazy suddenly?
However, when the eunuch found the screaming palace maid and saw the scene in front of him, he was so horrified that he even fell back a few times and almost staggered to his feet! Not to mention the palace maid who fell to the ground and completely lost her soul!
The nearby guards happened to rush over at this moment. When they saw the situation on the ground clearly, they were also shocked and immediately turned their backs.
After all, the eunuch was working for Emperor Jing. Although he was still trembling with fear, he tried his best to control himself and calm down as much as possible. He sniffed the breath of Princess Ningyang on the ground, and then trembled with fear and ran back quickly.
"Your Majesty...Princess Ningyang...she..."
The eunuch found it difficult to speak, so Emperor Jing said in a deep voice, "What happened to Ningyang!"
"Your Royal Highness, she..."
Emperor Jing, who never lost his temper very often, became angry when he saw him hesitating like this, "Useless thing! Lead the way, I'll go and see for myself!"
The eunuch immediately fell to his knees on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, you can't go!" He gritted his teeth, "Your Highness, she, she, is naked, covered with injuries, her lower body... her lower body
A lot of blood...it's gone...it's gone!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
The expression on Emperor Jing's face was blank for a few seconds. Gradually, emotions began to appear in his eyes, and his raised fingers began to tremble.
"Bastard! Bastard! Inform the Ministry of Punishment and the Imperial Physician!!
People from the Ministry of Punishment and imperial doctors came one after another. But no one present at the Qionglin Banquet, no matter the courtiers or the emperor's move this time, made no sound.
Soon, the Royal Forest Army came over and surrounded everyone in the audience!
When this happened, many official ladies and new imperial examination candidates were a little panicked. After all, they were not as experienced as the court officials.
Ling Duannian lowered his voice and said, "Sister, this Princess Ningyang, did you meet her before when you went to see the Queen Mother?"
"Met."
Have you met? Ling Duan Nian's clear and beautiful eyes turned a little unfathomable, "I feel a little bit not good..." After all, this Princess Ningyang and her sister had a holiday at the Spring Hunting Club. Princess Ningyang
This is how his tongue was cut off.
It's indeed not good. Ning Yang is dead? Although the guards patrolling the palace have some things they can't take care of, and there are gaps in their shifts. But what more time is there? Ning Yang is dead? The way of death is still so... subtle
?
Although she and Ning Yang had little friendship, she didn't want to see her die. If Ning Yang died, she wouldn't laugh at it, but she really didn't have any fluctuations or pity.
Ha, whether this is a coincidence or something else, since it has happened, let's just watch.
He said calmly, "Just wait and see what happens."
Today, Mu Qing's father from the Criminal Department and Wang Shangshu were on official business trips to handle cases and did not come to attend the Qionglin Banquet. It was another minister who led someone there to investigate.
The people of the Criminal Department are famous for only focusing on the case. At present, the left minister of the Criminal Department led his people back to the Qionglin Banquet and said solemnly, "Back to Your Majesty, based on the preliminary inference of the minister, the Princess was... raped and killed.
"
What??
Rape and murder!
In the heart of the palace, the majestic princess was raped and murdered in broad daylight? Is there anything more terrifying and unbelievable than this?
Although the people present heard what the eunuch said before and felt that the way Princess Ningyang died was a bit weird, they didn't think about rape and murder even if they had a thousand brains!
Emperor Jing sat down on the dragon chair, his face darkened and his youth revealed!
Not to mention he is the supreme emperor, he is just an ordinary man. He heard that his daughter had been raped and killed... raped and killed... "Check! Check! Find out and kill the nine tribes! Divide him into pieces!! I will cut him into pieces!!
"
When the emperor was angry, he laid down millions of corpses!
At present, there are not millions of corpses lying on the ground, and the courtiers all said in unison, "Your Majesty, please calm down and take care of the dragon body!"
But no man can calm down this kind of anger. Not even the emperor.
Originally, since this was the way to die, as a princess, no matter for the dignity of the princess, the emperor or the royal family, you should get rid of the person first, and it is best to investigate in private. Generally speaking, you will be silenced afterwards.
, there are other reasons for dealing with the murderer. It makes no sense to investigate like this in public, after all, it is about the face of the royal family.
But Emperor Jing was so angry that he searched the words several times again.
They quickly built a simple cloth shed and reluctantly put Princess Ningyang inside. In the shed, there were only people from the Ministry of Punishment and the gangsters.
Most of the people present quietly glanced at the simple shed not far away without daring to express their anger.
Until a female voice screamed miserably, "Ningyang!! Ningyang!!"
That was Concubine Shu who woke up from a coma and came here to look for Princess Ningyang. Concubine Shu's clothes still had blood stains from her previous vomiting. Like a madman, Concubine Shu threw herself into the shed regardless.
A howl like a cuckoo's cry of blood rang out, "Ningyang~Ningyang, what's wrong with you!"
In order not to affect the work of the Ministry of Justice, Emperor Jing waved his hand, and Concubine Shu was taken out by the guards.
"Ning Yang~! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! My concubine's Ning Yang... my concubine's Ning Yang... let me go!! Ning Yang...!"
The work of the Ministry of Justice was almost the best in Da Jing. Soon, the work of the work came up with a tray.
"Your Majesty, according to further confirmation by the minister, there are traces of flesh and blood in the fingernails of the Princess, which should have been caught on the murderer. There is male bodily fluid in the Princess, and it is indeed the result of... multiple lacerations on her lower body. As for the Princess
The cause of death, judging from the marks on her neck, was suffocation. In addition, this is the embroidered handkerchief that Her Royal Highness held tightly in her hand. According to Xiao Chen's speculation, this embroidered handkerchief is unlikely to be the princess's own.
, maybe it was pulled from the gangster."
After all, when a person is in danger, he may have anything in his hand that can be used to fight back. There is no reason to be raped... and kill him while holding on to his embroidered handkerchief tightly.
Unless the embroidered handkerchief has special meaning to her, so she still does her job and said calmly, "However, I still need Concubine Shu or the palace attendants serving Her Highness to confirm whether this embroidered handkerchief belongs to Her Highness the Princess."
As for Su Yi and Ji Hua, who had been standing behind Baili Feiyue, Ji Hua only frowned slightly. When Su Yi saw the embroidered handkerchief, her whole body trembled.
