Pretty Consort: Prince, Don’t Run away - C162
He remembered then that he had smelled a faint fragrance of pollen in the air. This smell was very strange, like an orchid, but also had a hint of the sweet fragrance of jasmine. It was a very comfortable fragrance, not strong at all.
At this moment, it was likely that only the high imperial concubine’s pollen possessed such effects.
Adding to the connection between these things, it should only be the Noble Consort Yun.
He actually didn’t notice something like this at all …
Lu Ming’s face changed slightly.
As Xi Mengyao spoke, she checked inside and outside the memorial hall again.
She had purposely circled back to the door to see that the place where she had previously sprinkled the green liquid had already turned black and was covered in mud and blood.
However, this could not completely cover it. The only thing he could do was make the black color even more dense.
She lowered her head and carefully sniffed it, confirming that it was something she had prepared earlier. The fragrance of this item would have been more lingering, but the conditions here were limited, so she didn’t have many materials to use, thus the effect would be greatly reduced.
Fortunately, it did not fail.
The smell of this thing couldn’t be washed clean after it was stuck to his body.
As she thought of this, she went back to inspect the corpses of the maids once more. She found traces and fragrance of them on the corner of their dresses, but they were cleaned by someone.
Thinking about it, perhaps this was the case, which was why he suffered such a calamity …
Xi Mengyao’s eyes dimmed for a moment.
The only person who could be questioned was most likely the woodcutter. But the woodcutter had fled at high speed; he should have sensed this little trick as well.
She thought, frowning as she turned to look at Lu Ming, and said in a low voice, “Send someone to take a look outside the city, especially in the wheat field, to see if there are any places where bees can gather. If there are, go and dig deeper, and find anything strange inside, and bring it back.”
Xi Mengyao said as she slightly narrowed her eyes: “Maybe I can find something good.”
“What exactly do you mean? “If the king finds out about all these things, I’m afraid …” He spoke carefully.
Song Chongjing did not like this kind of thing where people were suspicious and suspicious. Although he believed in Xi Mengyao, Song Chongjing might not do this …
Xi Mengyao also understood his meaning, she only shook her head and said: “I am not being mysterious, it is fine to tell you.”
As she spoke, she told him about her special medicine.
I thought it was strange earlier. That woman was probably knocked out outside and had suffered quite a bit before. Furthermore, I can vaguely see that someone has cleaned up the blood traces on the woman’s body from the loot.
She had taken the body with her after a round of investigation.
Those people were so careful, how could they not come over to check?
“That’s why I left such a hole. Originally, I wanted to lure the people who were checking out from behind out and catch them on the spot. However, now that you’ve seen it, my little trick must have been seen through. That’s why that woodcutter slipped away.”
However, she was sure that the person didn’t know how difficult it was to deal with.
The reason he escaped was definitely because he wanted to go to the outskirts of the city and wash his stuff. There were not many places that could discard things without anyone discovering them.
“If you can find some more of his clothes, you’ll be ironclad after that. “Although it might not be of much help, we can’t let it go at all.”
Hearing this, Lu Ming’s heart was filled with admiration. He continued to speak about other things, nodded, and turned to leave.
Xi Mengyao looked at the calmness, but her heart was a little uneasy.
She had originally thought that such a thing wouldn’t be discovered, but now it seemed that his meticulousness was far beyond her imagination.
“An eventful autumn …” In the end, she could only sigh and slowly walk out with her hands behind her back.
Deep in the palace.
The palace in Noble Consort Yun was also filled with an uneasy atmosphere. The servants at the side did not even dare to breathe loudly, they had a sluggish and careful look, and thought that they were all made out of puppets.
Song Chongjing did not say anything, but his movements were extremely rough.
He held the teacup and drank the tea, but it was as if he was drinking medicine.
“I have already ordered someone to go invite the Prince Jing. I believe he will not refuse.” Seeing that, the Noble Consort Yun was helpless, and could only try to persuade him.
Song Chongjing heard this and nodded his head, but he was still a bit angry.
He had no idea what exactly Xi Mengyao was doing!
Previously in the memorial hall, he had swindled the corpse and taken it away. Leaving behind such a thing, it was obviously a show of force!
“She …” Will you find us? ” Song Chongjing thought for a while and could not help but ask. His tone was extremely displeased and already carried some killing intent, but facing his Consort Mother, he still restrained himself a little.
Noble Consort Yun leaned on the soft couch and had a headache.
Song Chongjing had said these words many times. Although she was annoyed, but in the end …
She frowned as she thought about it. She was merely recalling what they had done during this period of time … After thinking for a while and confirming that there were no major flaws, he shook his head and said, “Don’t be in such a hurry. It’s not something that can be done in a hurry.”
She poured him a cup of tea herself as she spoke.
“Since they have already begun their investigation, we have to retract the thread here. Those people …” Are you sure they’ve all been chased out? ” She turned her head to look back into the room. “You can temporarily rest assured that she is with me.”
After saying that, Noble Consort Yun’s expression did not look good, but she added.
“However, hiding someone in the palace is not a good idea right now. If you have any good places to go, quickly arrange for her to leave. Don’t let them get in before they do, and they’ll put her in too.”
At the mention of this person, her eyes couldn’t help but reveal a look of disgust.
When he invited this person over, he was kind. However, he didn’t know if it was because of her identity and status that he didn’t have any respect for her!
In the past and present, she had suffered this injustice.
To think that a little girl would point a finger at his nose and scold him …
As she thought about it, the loathing in her eyes deepened. Seeing that, Song Chongjing knew that the person who angered Consort Mother was actually this person. Although she was unhappy in her heart, she still advised: “She has a bad temper …”
“But since you have connections behind her, do not argue with her. If you are displeased, then …” We still have something to talk about! ”
As Song Qian was speaking, he had already raised one of his hands and made a gesture.
He lowered his voice when he said this, as if he was afraid that the people in the room might hear him, but this made him look even more sinister.
