Pretty Consort: Prince, Don’t Run away - C148

At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was opened and a person came out. He smiled and said, “The Empress asked me to come out and ask you guys if you’ve made preparations.”

When the two heard this, they immediately nodded and said, “It’s all prepared, the person is already gone, although he was captured, but I think that since he’s already gone, there shouldn’t be any loopholes, and the key is also in his hand. Now that everything is ready, only the east wind is left. ”

After saying that, a person stepped forward and spoke in a flattering tone, “I hope that this servant can guarantee her success in this matter.”

He then took out two gold ingots from his sleeve and placed it in the hands of the two men. He said in a low voice, “Empress, it is a blessing to have you two help out. I’ll go back and speak for you guys, as long as you do your job properly, okay? ”

“Yes!” “We will not disappoint the Empress!” The two maidservants held the gold and immediately kneeled.

When the Chief Eunuch heard this, he turned around and got into the carriage with a smile.

The horse carriage moved steadily along the small road and slowly disappeared into the night without a trace. The two maidservants also took the opportunity to turn around and disappear into the streets.

On the side of the Duke Palaces, Xi Mengyao however, felt a little sad.

She spent some time to read all the letters she had taken from the old man, but there was not much useful information in them.

Most of them were ordering him about when and where to do something.

What he said the most was to get rid of her.

Moreover, one could tell from this handwriting that it belonged to Xi Mengge. She had thought that based on Xi Mengge’s personality, she wouldn’t actually be that exquisite. But now, it seemed that she had underestimated him …

Or perhaps, she had also fallen into some kind of misunderstanding.

Think about it. She secretly gritted her teeth and sighed.

“I wonder how the situation is over there …”

As she said this, she sent someone to interrogate them. However, she was told that the two people over there were spouting nonsense, and that they would likely be interrogated for a period of time.

Song Chongjing only asked someone to pass the message that he no longer needed to wait.

Xi Mengyao was confused, but since she trusted Song Chongjing, she did not question him further. After being silent for a moment, she shook her head and went to sleep.

This day, her good offices were exhausted. When it was time to rest, she immediately fell asleep on her bed, not caring about anything else.

The next day, all the people outside were clamoring. The next moment, a piece of news quickly spread throughout the capital.

“Then… Last night, the princess from one of the neighboring countries, who was close to him, died suddenly and unknowingly in her bridal chamber. Her death was miserable and unrecognizable! ”

Even she could clearly hear the Attendant’s howls from the manor.

When the news spread throughout the imperial court, the Prince Jing was immediately summoned to the palace on horseback.

Xi Mengyao didn’t even have the time to gossip when she could only see Song Chongjing’s cart leaving.

“What’s wrong? The princess is fine, why would she suddenly die?” Could it be that you have done so many bad things recently that even the heavens can’t stand watching on and you want to take her in? ”

Xi Mengyao just thought it was strange and said a few words to himself. When Lu Ming heard this, he could only sigh. “Princess Hua-Yang is really funny.”

“It’s not because I’m funny, but because something has happened to this princess and she has to urgently recruit Prince Jing, don’t you find it strange?”

However, something had happened to the princess. This matter was caused by the Board of War.

“Isn’t he just an idle prince? He could also be in charge of the city’s patrolling camp. What is he going to do? Go investigate a case?” You don’t mind overstepping your authority? ”

Hearing this, Lu Ming shook his head and said, “You don’t understand, the safety of the citizens in the city is the responsibility of the Patrol Battalion. Now that the Prince is in charge of them, he naturally has responsibilities.”

Just look at how he died, if he was killed, the relationship between the Prince Jing and himself, would not be able to escape.

“You can do this?” Xi Mengyao was suspicious.

“Naturally.”

Lu Ming said as he slightly nodded his head, a trace of darkness also flashed past his eyes.

In truth, it was impossible to calculate it all, but Song Chongjing was helpless. With such a critical situation, the matter was extremely serious, and Song Chongjing was like a hot potato in hot water.

How many ministers in the imperial court would dare to take over?

The Emperor was not a fool, so he naturally understood all of this. That was why he was summoning the Prince Jing to the palace so urgently.

As if he wanted to confirm that Song Chongjing had always had a divine-like foresight, he returned to the Duke Palace four hours later. His face was already ashen, and it seemed as if some good thing had happened.

Xi Mengyao went over to ask, and Song Chongjing also told the truth.

As expected, the Emperor had already handed this matter to him, and he had even issued a death order.

“Yesterday, Song Qian reported that the princess from a neighboring country caught a disease, so she didn’t expect to die suddenly in her room today. She died miserably, and there were signs of her corpse being torn apart.

As Song Chongjing spoke, his tone couldn’t help but carry a trace of anger, “If the emperor doesn’t ask the reason, then say that my patrols are not strict. He has a time limit of half a month.

Song Chongjing’s tone was cold, but his eyes were filled with killing intent.

He wasn’t an idiot. The Emperor of Nature had wanted to use this opportunity to kill him. These words were said by all the important members of the court.

Thinking about it, before he said these things, he already had a plan.

“Looks like the emperor isn’t stupid. He knew about this and couldn’t bear it all by himself, so he wanted to shake the pot everywhere and find someone to help him shoulder this heavy responsibility.” However, Xi Mengyao raised her eyebrows and spoke with a very calm tone.

Song Chongjing looked at her, and only saw that in her beautiful eyes, there was not the slightest bit of smile.

“Whatever, let’s not talk about anything else. I’ll go check out the corpse first.” That princess’ corpse is placed outside the city in a memorial hall. I’m afraid that I’ll have to delay this a little and won’t be able to return by noon. ”

“Wait?” Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Xi Mengyao called out to him.

Song Chongjing puzzledly turned his head around to look, only to see Xi Mengyao patting her own arm, and following him: “For such an interesting thing, I also want to go and take a look.”

“This is a lawsuit, what’s interesting about it?” Hearing her like this, Song Chongjing frowned. It seemed like she was only going outside to join in the fun.

However, he did not expect Xi Mengyao to speak in such a cold manner, and he sneered: “What did you say? If this wasn’t interesting, then it wouldn’t be your turn. Now that the matter is settled, even if I don’t go and look, there will still be people coming looking for me. ”

As she said that, she turned her head, deep in thought. Old Housekeeper, who was standing not far behind her, bowed as if she had aged ten years in an instant.

Song Chongjing also understood what was going on and shook his head: “Up to you.”

With that, the group of people headed for the memorial hall outside the city.
