Chapter 2440 Waste Princess 28

died?

It's both unexpected and not unexpected. With this guy's daily pace of committing suicide, the fact that he's still alive today is a credit to his mother, Madam Jiang Shu, who is very capable, and to his good fortune.

The Queen Mother sighed: "Let's go and take a look." She raised her hands, and Xining and Ziling quickly supported her on both sides and walked out of the hall.

The palace maid who knew about the incident followed along the way and spoke softly about it.

After the banquet ended yesterday, Gongzi Chong went back to sleep. In the morning, the servants discovered that he was missing.

After searching everywhere, I found it by the lake.

The young master was lying on the edge of the lake with his face submerged in the water. He had already died. There were no injuries on his body. He had been sent to Madam Jiang Shu's Jinhua Palace.

"Madam Jiang Shu has fainted from crying twice. It is said that..." The palace maid hesitated.

The Queen Mother said in a deep voice: "Speak~"

The maid plucked up her courage and lowered her voice, moving her lips: "She said that she got drunk last night and went to play by the lake, where she fell asleep. Her face happened to be submerged in the water, and that's when..."

When Xining heard this, his scalp exploded. He had been dealing with this matter for a long time, and now it happened to him.

Come to think of it, if the young master hadn't drunk too much, how could he have run to the lake and drowned himself while drunk? Moreover, his body was on the shore and his face was in the water. He drowned himself.

As soon as the maid finished speaking, the empress dowager stopped abruptly and glared at her fiercely, which scared the maid so much that she immediately shut up and stood there with her head down.

"What does it have to do with Mo'er?" The Queen Mother was not able to raise her voice despite the accident. After thinking for a while, she gently patted Xining's hand and said, "You go back first. The almond peanut juice we made last time tasted good. Please make some for me. I'll need it when I come back."

"Yes, grandma." Xining bent his knees slightly, took three steps back, and then turned and left.

When she got to the kitchen, she grabbed a handful of red-skinned peanuts and soaked them in hot water so that the peanut skins would swell up as quickly as possible.

The Queen Mother wanted to protect her. If she went, Madam Jiang Shu, who was just grieving the loss of her son, would rush up and beat her without any reason, and that would be in vain.

After waiting for an hour, the Queen Mother came back and brought over some chilled cheese.

The Queen Mother picked up the spoon, scooped some cheese from the ceramic dish, put it in her mouth, squinted her eyes, and nodded slightly: "The cheese made from almonds, peanuts and milk is cool, refreshing, fragrant and smooth. It's very delicious. It's thoughtful."

While eating, he glanced at Zi Ling who was beside him. Zi Ling understood and talked about Jinhua Palace: "Young Master Zhong has changed his clothes, packed up, and is lying on the bed. Madam Jiang Shu has disheveled hair and has not put on makeup. She is like a madman, shouting that Princess Mo should pay with her life."

She frowned. It was indeed her fault. What did it have to do with her?

Zi Ling continued, "The court judge came to examine the body and said that he drowned in his sleep and smelled of alcohol, but to determine whether he was drunk or not, he had to open his body."

Hearing this, Xining sighed helplessly. There was no need to think about it, Mrs. Jiang Shu would definitely not agree.

As expected, Ziling said, "Mrs. Jiang Shu refused to open the body for an autopsy, so this is the only way to go for now."

Xining frowned and thought for a moment: "Each master has a night watchman. Each palace has a maid to watch the door, and there are patrolling guards outside. Didn't anyone know that the young master left the palace again and went to the lake?"

Zi Ling replied, "Wei Xun also asked about it, and he said that the eunuchs and maids who were on night watch last night were so soundly asleep that no one noticed. It just so happened that they missed the guard. This is what they said before they died. Madam Jiang Shu was too sad, and in a rage, she beat all the eunuchs and maids who served Master Zhong, a total of eight people, to death or poisoned them, and buried them with him."

Oh my god, even if it's for burial alive, it's better to kill someone later. What's there to investigate now? Everyone is dead. The Queen Mother had finished her cheese and wiped it with a towel: "The court judge called this time is also doing his job well. Jiang Shu was anxious to kill you, but the court judge said that there was insufficient evidence and the case could not be closed. No matter how much Jiang Shu cried and screamed, the whole palace was searched, even the incense burner ash and incense bag were not spared. It is said that if the person is knocked unconscious and then dragged to the water, he can drown without any injuries."

This court judge had some brains. He could have knocked someone unconscious and dragged him to the waterside, and he could have drowned him. And everyone in the palace was sleeping so soundly, and they missed the patrolling guards. Such a coincidence might have happened, but it was impossible.

Ziling placed the tea on the tray brought by the maid next to her on the table one by one. "It was Lieutenant Li. He has served in the Imperial Court for generations and has solved countless cases. It's a pity that when Lieutenant Li came, Master Zhong had already washed himself and dressed neatly. No one can remember whether his feet were dirty or clean. If they were clean, Princess Mo would be able to get away with it."

"Young Master Zhong went to the lake barefoot?" Xining frowned.

The Queen Mother and Zi Ling looked at each other, and then the Queen Mother replied: "That's right, what did Moer think of?"

Xining analyzed, "Madam Jiang Shu dotes on Master Zhong. The shoes that Master Zhong wears are made of silk. When he takes off his shoes for class every day, you can see that the insoles are made of reed fluff in summer and chicken and duck down in winter. Master Zhong's feet must be more delicate than his hands. If he walked to the lake without shoes, there must be traces."

The Queen Mother nodded approvingly: "Captain Li said the same thing, so he concluded that Master Zhong was taken to the lake and drowned. But Jiang Shu refused to admit it."

Zi Ling said with dissatisfaction: "Madam Jiang Shu wants to pin the blame on Princess Mo, and even said that she wants Princess Mo to be buried alive with her to make amends for her crime."

"Bah, she dares!" The Queen Mother spat, took her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, Mo'er. If she dares to make trouble again, I will kill her tomorrow and bury her in the tomb of the previous king to show my filial piety. Or I can let her choose and bury her with her son, and continue to be mother and son underground."

Oh my god, the Queen Mother is so awesome! Xining secretly gave a thumbs up. Sure enough, hugging the big thick legs can keep you alive.

However, if Madam Jiang Shu continues to make trouble like this, it will not be good for the body owner's reputation... Xining stroked his chin and began to think of a way.

"Chong'er, my Chong'er..." Heart-wrenching cries were heard from Jinhua Palace.

Madam Jiang Shu lay on a coffin, patting it and crying bitterly: "My only son is gone, gone. It's all because of that bitch Liang Mo, it's all because of her! If my Chong'er hadn't been drunk, how could he have died?"

Then he pointed at the King of Liang and cried, "Such a bitch is nothing compared to my Chong'er. I want her to be buried with me!"

Mrs. Jiang Shu was so grief-stricken that she didn't even call herself "concubine".

"Oh my~" Prince Liang was overwhelmed. "Even if Mo'er is a concubine's daughter, she is still my flesh and blood. Now she is fostered by the Queen Mother. She is deeply loved by the Queen Mother. Don't make a fuss."

"What did I do? This is her fault. For committing such a big mistake, shouldn't she die to atone for her sin and be buried with my son?" Madam Jiang Shu stared at him with her eyes red from crying. The whites of her eyes were bloodshot and her expression was ferocious, like that of a ghost.

I've been trying to persuade him for a long time, but he's still like this.

"The Supreme Court said that it cannot be confirmed that it is related to alcohol. You have cleared all the evidence."

King Liang was also furious, and he threw his sleeves and said, "Stop being unreasonable!"

"I am being unreasonable?" Madam Jiang Shu looked at King Liang in disbelief and suddenly cried out, "I will not live any longer, I will not live any longer, my son..."

"Oh~" King Liang was really being driven crazy.

At this time, a eunuch hurried in and knelt down to report: "Your Majesty, Madam, Princess Mo is by the lake, by the lake..."

King Liang was extremely irritable: "Go on, how about by the lake?"
