Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 715 It’s been three quarters of an hour

Su Yixin hopes to have a son because she simply hopes to have both children.

After all, as long as her and Gu Qingjue's genes are not genetically mutated, even if they are a son, he should not be a little bully who goes to the house to steal tiles, goes down to the river to fish, and refuses to be disciplined.

Su Yixin never imagined that all the things she had vaguely thought about would one day come true.

Looking at the sweet-tongued eldest daughter again, in stark contrast, she just wished she could sigh with emotion every day: It’s okay if she doesn’t want this son!

On the fifth day after Baili Yuqiong came back, Wuji Sect informed the sect about her return.

On the tenth day, Feng Sheng sent the betrothal gift to Wuji Sect in a very high-profile manner.

Both of them were almost sixty years old, and their daughter was pregnant with her second daughter. What was there to be embarrassed about? They happily accepted the betrothal gift, and Situ Ying also started busy preparing for her daughter's marriage.

At this time, Situ Ying no longer felt lonely as her daughter got married and would have fewer opportunities to see her in the future.

Compared to more than 20 years, where life and death were uncertain, where the person was, and where he was never seen, it was just that he was married to the Xuanyin Sect and could never see him whenever he wanted.

As long as the child is happy.

After the New Year, the day for the two of them to get married was approaching.

But on the second day of the new year, Gu Qingjue received an urgent letter from Kyoto, saying that Princess Qi had died.

Princess Qi is a marriage princess from Dali.

Just die.

The emperor has handed this matter over to Bao Zheng for investigation.

During this period, His Majesty also asked Pan Gong to assist Bao Zheng in the investigation, but after seven days, there was still no progress.

There is no doubt about Bao Gong's ability to solve crimes.

But after seven days, even he couldn't find any clues, and the court began to discuss whether Princess Qi committed suicide.

However, since the protector princess came to Song Dynasty to get married, Dali had a special office in Kyoto.

To put it bluntly, it is convenient for communicating between the two countries.

Their princess died. They checked for seven days but found nothing. In the end, they said it was suicide.

How could Dali agree?

So rumors were spread that the concubine of King Qi had killed Princess Qi in order to ascend to the throne. This was a provocation to Dali.

If the concubine of King Qi is not executed, Dali will soon raise troops to attack Song Dynasty.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t win, they took advantage of the gift!

I don’t believe that after Daliao was defeated the year before last, they didn’t want to find an opportunity to take a bite back.

A Dali, of course, I am not afraid.

But Dali spread such rumors, and they were the ones at the wrong end.

Not only Daliao, but also Jiaozhi and Tibet in the west will take advantage of this opportunity to send troops under the banner of seeking justice for Dali.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Su Yixin received a private message from Queen Cao asking her to return to Kyoto.

Only half an hour later, Gu Qingjue also received a summons from His Majesty, asking him to rush to Beijing to investigate the cause of Princess Qi's death with Mr. Bao.

At this time, Su Yixin was almost five months pregnant. After having a baby, she placed Gu Yanxiao in the Wuji Sect. She took Gu Qingjue to Kyoto at noon.

After entering the city, they did not go directly to the palace, but went to Kaifeng Mansion to check the body of Princess Qi.

Mr. Bao happened to be there at that time.

"Master Bao!"

"Master Gu, Princess Ruian!"

After greeting each other, Bao Zheng told Gu Qingjue what happened in the past few days.

It was her personal maid named Chunya who found Princess Qi dead around the second day of the first lunar month.

Su Yixin was confused. The ugly time was when people began to sleep deeply. Even the servants who kept watch at night also had to take a nap at this time. Unless Princess Qi woke up at this time and asked Chunya to serve, how could Chunya, the maid, take the initiative to lift the bed curtain?

Totally unreasonable.

Su Yixin could think of it, how could Master Bao not think of it.

Chun Ya was immediately brought up for interrogation.

After asking, I found out that Chunya heard Princess Qi shouting, so she opened the bed curtain and looked, but there was no movement after shouting several times. Only then did Chunya realize that something was wrong and tested it with her hands. At that time, Princess Qi There is no breath anymore.

Bao Zheng said: "I asked for an autopsy. There were no external injuries on Princess Qi's body, and there were no signs of poisoning. I suspect that there was someone else in Princess Qi's bedroom at that time."

Just from Chunya finding out that Princess Qi was dead, to her running to the yard of King Qi's side concubine to inform King Qi, to King Qi going to Princess Qi's yard to check, to to King Qi reporting to the official, this series of processes went down. It's almost dawn.

Even if there was someone in the room at the time, they would have fled long ago.

"From what point did Mr. Bao conclude that Princess Qi did not commit suicide but committed suicide?"

Could it be that just based on what Chunya said she heard the cry?

People also lie.

Even if she wasn't lying, Chunya might have heard wrongly or was in a trance when she was already napping.

Master Lu, who was standing next to Bao Zheng, raised his eyebrows: "Master Gu, do you mean that Princess Qi committed suicide?"

Gu Qingjue smiled and looked at Lu Gongchuo: "Master Tang, when did Ziyuan say that Princess Qi committed suicide?"

"But you just asked Mr. Bao how he concluded that it was homicide rather than suicide!"

"Master Lu, it has been half a year since you were promoted to governor, and you have been taught by your father before. How could you say such childish words?"

"Gu Ziyuan, you!"

"Master Bao, I want to meet Chunya."

Chunya was the first to discover the death of Princess Qi. Although she had no motive to kill Princess Qi, she was the easiest to succeed.

So now he is locked up in the dungeon of Kaifeng Mansion.

Gu Qingjue was called back to Kyoto by His Majesty to take charge of this case. He proposed to meet Chunya, which was reasonable. Bao Zheng took Gu Qingjue and Su Yixin to the dungeon.

No one expected that what they would see in the dungeon would be Chun Ya's body, with bulging eyes and a look of extreme horror.

Most likely he was scared to death.

It's really hard to judge whether she saw something herself or someone deliberately let her see something terrifying and scared her to death.

Bao Zheng was horrified and asked the jailer: "How do you take care of the prisoners? You don't even know if they are dead."

"Master Bao, I don't know!"

The jailer was frightened and knelt down with a bang: "The villain will patrol every half an hour. The last time he patrolled, this prisoner was still fine."

Gu Qingjue asked the jailer: "How long has it been since your last patrol?"

"It's been three quarters of an hour!"

Gu Qingjue was still asking the jailer for details, but Su Yixin had already entered the cell and was looking around.

After going around, I found no trace of anyone else entering.

She used the Five Elements Qi to check again and found that Chun Ya's soul was no longer in her body.

Bao Zheng's anger had now transferred from the jailer to Lu Gongchuo. As a governor of Kaifeng, a prisoner died in a cell, and he could not escape his involvement.

Your Majesty must know that the prisoner is dead, so Bao Zheng, Lu Gongchuo and Gu Qingjue went to the palace to see His Majesty. (End of chapter)
