Chapter 2441 Waste Princess 29

Mrs. Jiang Shu climbed up from the coffin and stared with bloodshot eyes: "What is she doing at the lake? Is she looking for evidence to exonerate her, or is she watching something funny?"

As he spoke, a hideous smile appeared on his face. He waved his hands and yelled, "Go, throw this bitch into the lake and drown her to accompany my Chong'er in death!"

"Stop talking! If you keep making trouble, I will kill you first!!!" King Liang was completely furious. Normally, it would be easy for him to deal with her, but at this moment, Madam Jiang Shu had disheveled hair and looked like a mad woman. She was not as charming as usual, and she kept saying that she wanted to kill her own daughter, which was really disgusting.

If he really died, the Queen Mother would not let him go. Then the elders of the clan jumped out one by one to impeach him, saying that he favored his concubines and killed his daughters, doted on his wife and killed the royal descendants at will, and his record would be recorded in history books as a bad name for thousands of years.

When King Liang got angry, Madam Jiang Shu was stunned at first, then she turned around and lay on the coffin, patting it and crying: "Son, they say no one dares to bully a son. You just left and your father bullied me. I'm just waiting for them to force me to go with you, ah ah ah~~"

King Liang's eyes rolled back and he sighed to the sky, "My life is so miserable. That's right..."

He remembered something and asked the eunuch who was still kneeling in front of him, looking down in fear and not saying a word, "What is Princess Mo doing by the lake?"

The eunuch replied in fear and trepidation: "Princess Mo is serving wine by the lake."

King Liang thought he had misheard, but no matter how panicked the eunuch was, the voice was indeed clear and crisp: "You said she was distributing wine by the lake, what was she doing?"

The eunuch said, "Princess Mo said that peach wine is hard to get drunk with. Moreover, King Liang loves his children, and the amount given to each prince and princess last night was only half a cup. So Princess Mo distributed wine by the lake to show her innocence. Anyone who is resting or not on duty that day can go to the lake to get half a cup of wine. They are required to drink it on the spot and sleep on the mat set up next to it for half an hour."

Is this still possible? It seems feasible.

The eunuch continued, "It will be held for seven consecutive days. There will be incense burners and fire basins next to them. Everyone will light a stick of incense and burn some paper before receiving the wine, until the young master's funeral is held again, to show their condolences."

When Prince Liang and Lady Jiang Shu arrived, there were already five or six people lying by the lake. As there were not enough mats, some people simply brought their own mats or coarse linen, or even found a clean spot under the shade of trees to sleep on.

There are also those who just arrived. Only the king, queen, princes and princesses can drink. They must try it no matter what. I will give them seven days in a row. There will always be one day off duty during these seven days. It would be nice to sleep by the lake after drinking. It happened to be sunny today. If it rained, it might be cancelled.

"The King is here! Madam Jiang Shu is here!" As soon as they were shouted, everyone knelt down and saluted.

Madam Jiang Shu looked around but didn't see Princess Mo. The people distributing the wine were all palace servants. On the table next to her, there were some tribute fruits, and a few incense sticks were burning in the incense burner in the middle. There was also a brazier in front of the table, and someone was kneeling there, burning paper non-stop.

Seeing that everything was going well, King Liang turned around and asked, "Look, do you still want Mo'er to be buried alive with you?"

Mrs. Jiang Shu was speechless for a moment. She looked at the table next to her where wine was being distributed. There were still a few bottles of wine. The amount was indeed not large, only enough to pour three or four small cups.

She could only wipe her tears with her sleeves: "My son died unjustly, wuwuwu..."

King Liang sighed and said, "Order the Duwei Mansion to solve the case as soon as possible. Five days is the deadline."

There were several golden osmanthus trees outside the small kitchen, and the osmanthus flowers were in full bloom. Xining leaned on the recliner and watched Chun'er collecting osmanthus flowers. On the small low table next to him, there was a cup of boiled tea, two kinds of dried fruits, and a plate of candied date steamed cake.

This is life. Even in an era of scarce resources, we should try our best to live a better life.

Chun Er came over with a small dustpan and asked with a smile, "Princess, is this enough?"

She took a look and just covered the bottom flatly: "Not enough, at least half. When you need it, it will be too little."

"Okay, I'll do it again." Chun'er went back happily, picked up a bamboo pole and kept hitting the branches. The osmanthus flowers fell like rain on the linen spread on the ground.

In the past, people usually dried the osmanthus flowers, but she wanted to pickle them. In winter, she would make rice dumpling soup with fermented rice wine and scoop some of them. The fresh and plump osmanthus flowers should make the empress dowager happy.

A maid came over and told Ziling that not long ago, King Liang ordered to solve the case as soon as possible.

"Got it. Thank Aunt Ziling for me." After the maid left, she sighed slightly. This matter would most likely remain an unsolved case.

The days passed like this, and the death of Prince Chong still cast a shadow over the palace.

Xining went to school with Chun'er by his side.

Halfway through the journey, I heard a noise coming from not far away.

"What's the matter?" She stopped and looked over.

There was a group of people there, going in and out, coming and going, at the gate of a courtyard.

Chun Er said softly, "It's because the Imperial Court is investigating the case. The rooms of the palace maids and eunuchs have been searched over the past few days. That's where the imperial concubine Ling Ji lives."

Ling Ji was born in a humble family. Most slaves had no names. Ling Ji was originally called Ling Er. She was a foot-washing maid of a beauty among the concubines of Teng who were married to Liang Jiang. After the beauty died, in order not to be buried alive with her, she used all her savings to buy a piece of information about the actions of the King of Liang.

Let King Liang "accidentally" see her and burn paper for his master in a corner.

There were not so many taboos in the palace at that time, and during festivals, palace servants were allowed to burn paper to commemorate their masters and families.

The King of Liang was immediately attracted to this maidservant and favored her. Because Ling Ji was of humble status, she was given the title of imperial concubine.

Ling Ji has never been pregnant, so she has always been a concubine.

Chun'er whispered in her ear, trying to lower her voice: "It is said that someone gave her a decoction that would end her heir's family. Could it be Madam Jiang Shu?"

I felt a little pity for her. Ling Ji could only save her life temporarily. If she had no offspring, she would still be buried alive with the King of Liang when he died.

Fortunately, she held on to the Queen Mother's thigh. In the past two days, those in high positions were still better off. From time to time, people from the Imperial Court would come with the Royal Palace Guards to search the places where beauties and below lived. Because they were following the orders of King Liang, those who were checked dared not speak out, and could only consider themselves unlucky and pick up their messed-up clothes.

"No, I won't go. Help, my king, save me!" Ling Ji was actually dragged out of the yard and taken away.

Chun Er hid behind her in fear and whispered, "I heard they started arresting people last night."

Three days had passed, and there were less than two days left before the five-day deadline. But still no clues were found, so the Supreme Court began to bring people in to torture him.

Xining thought about it and walked over.

Chun Er was anxious: "Princess, let's not get involved in this matter. Who cared for us when we were down and out?"

After a few days of good life, they were meddling in other people's business. That was the Imperial Court, where many ministers and dignitaries were convicted and killed. If a child cried and made a fuss, they would just say be careful or they would be caught by the Imperial Court, and they would not dare to make a fuss again.

As he spoke, he was already facing him.

Seeing a girl about ten years old in front of them, with a maid holding bamboo slips and a study box, the group of people couldn't help but stop.

  Someone actually dared to stop the people from the Supreme Court!

Anyone who dares to block the way, since this is the royal palace, must be either extremely bold or have some power.

The leader frowned slightly, and the subordinate next to him stepped forward, raised a hand to block the whisper, "It's the fourteenth princess Mo, who is fostered under the name of the queen mother."
