The little queen is squeamish, and the tyrant of prey coaxes her every night

Chapter 46
Strangled to death by kite string?

This method of death sounds extremely cruel, but even though he was mentally prepared, Wang Guiren almost slipped off the chair in surprise.

"Wuyue, how can you tell such dirty things in front of all the nobles?" The queen mother said calmly.

I've already said it all, and now I just remembered that I can't say it?

An Chengyue went to see Fu Yao helplessly.

I thought that the queen would be frightened, and she would lose her appearance in front of the palace just like the nobleman Wang, but I didn't expect her to be quite indifferent, sitting in the seat.

No wonder the Queen Mother always suspected that Fu Yao was just pretending.

She was wearing an elegant and luxurious dress today, originally to hide the wooden knife, so she wore layers of clothes, which added a bit of arrogance to her body.

When she was not speaking, although her complexion was a bit immature, she still carried a lot of dignity, even the queen mother was stunned when she saw it.

With such a dignified and majestic appearance, who can see that he is a fool?

And at this moment, what is Fu Yao thinking about?

"Kite, string?" Fu Yao asked in a low voice.

No one explained it for her, but Concubine Jing said:

"The queen doesn't know yet. Although the string of the kite is thin, it can kill people, and it is much more vicious than those daggers. I heard that there are many signs of struggle on the dead maid. You must have suffered a lot before.”

Concubine Jing stared at Fu Yao's face, but she spoke with a bit of playfulness, as if she wanted to see how frightened the foolish queen looked.

Fu Yao was not frightened. Instead, she opened her hand, looked at it for a while, and then went to see the Queen Mother.

"Traces on the hands." Fu Yao said to the Queen Mother.

What does this mean?
The Queen Mother didn't understand, but saw An Chengyue's eyes light up.

"Since someone killed someone with a kite string, Queen Mother, and there are many marks on the body of the dead maid, it means that there should be many marks on the palm of the murderer's hand. On weekdays, only one hand of a kite flyer has a mark of being cut by the string. But if someone uses a kite string to commit murder..."

An Chengyue didn't clarify what happened next, but everyone present knew that since the victim had so many marks on his body, the murderer must also have many traces of being strangled by kite strings in his heart.

An Gui, who usually looks silent, still has such abilities?

Could it be that Mr. An also wants to compete for favor?
Concubine Jing was thinking a lot in her heart, and said in a cold voice:

"Mr. Angui is still too naive. I don't know who brought it up these few days. The whole palace is flying kites. You mean that anyone who has flown a kite has traces of strings on his palms. Is it possible to kill this maid?"

Wang Guiren became anxious when she heard that, she personally participated in the kite making, and she also had many wounds on her hands.

The queen mother can scold Fu Yao with weird reasons, so she won't be suspected, right?

Wang Guiren quickly pulled An Chengyue, and defended his background: "Yes, sister An, I also flew a kite, and there were marks of being strangled on the palm of my hand, how can I judge this?"

An Chengyue grabbed Wang Guiren's hand, showed it to everyone, and said, "The traces left by flying a kite in the past are different from the traces that were eaten back when killing people with kite strings."

"Everyone can see that the mark on the palm of Wang Guiren's hand is very shallow. The rest of the marks are all made of the bamboo used to tie the kite. The difference is obvious. And there is only one mark. It hurts the surface at most and does not go deep."

This explanation made many people open their palms to see the traces inside.

There were many people present who wanted to seduce the emperor, those who deliberately flew kites on the emperor's only way yesterday, now looked at their palms, there was indeed a trace that could be traced.

"Oh, there is indeed a mark on the palm of my hand."

"You have it too, alas, but we are all a trace, Mr. An Gui said, this is normal."

The maids in the Empress Dowager's Palace were all talking, but the originally angry Empress Dowager had no expression on her face at the moment, making it difficult to see whether she was angry, happy, or disgusted.

An Chengyue didn't care what the Queen Mother was thinking.

She continued: "As for the person who killed the maid, I am afraid that there is more than one mark on the palm of the hand, and it is more likely that the kite string will strangle it and leave a wound. Why don't you check thoroughly to see if there is anyone with the injured palm around the maid."

An Chengyue said in a cold voice, after shedding the suspicion, she went to see Fu Yao again.

Sure enough, there was a bit of admiration in Fu Yao's eyes.

That's right, that's what she meant. I didn't expect Sister An to be so powerful that she would say all this in a few words. She is really too stupid. It would be great if she could speak clearly!

"Go and check everyone around that maid."

After a while, a crying little palace lady was pushed in. When she saw the queen mother, she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and dared not move.

"How did you kill the court lady next to you!" said the nanny who pressed the person over in a cold voice.

The maid who was already crying cried even louder, almost shouting: "Your maidservant knew she was wrong, I made the kite, she went out with the maidservant's kite, and said that she saw the queen, and she will die in a few days." Going to work with the queen, this should be a good job for a servant! So I killed him at the first thought..."

The maid was crying so hard, An Chengyue walked over with a cold face, and opened her hand to look at it.

Sure enough, there were several dense ditches in the palm of the hand, and there were some signs of healing around the wound.

"It's really you." An Chengyue shook her head, "Queen Mother, it seems that this little maid did it now, but I don't know who deliberately wanted to slander the Queen and spread it on purpose, saying that the Empress Dowager did it. Please The Empress Dowager informed the whole palace about this matter, so as not to damage the reputation of the Empress Dowager."

Seeing the dense wounds in the maid's hands, the queen mother couldn't help moving the beads a little faster, and her mouth seemed to be opening and closing, chanting Amitabha.

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes, as if she wanted to drive people away: "Forget it, since this matter has nothing to do with the Empress, you guys should go back. This matter is too shocking, so there is no need for everyone in the palace to know about it."

Fu Yao, who was called over for no reason, felt a little sad.

When suspecting that she was a murderer, the appearance of the Queen Mother scolding her is vivid.Now that the truth is out, the queen mother is not even willing to tell the truth.

Fu Yao immediately stepped forward and knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager, looked up at the Empress Dowager, with a firm look in her eyes: "Say, tell me clearly, no."

An Chengyue immediately understood what Fu Yao meant, knelt down and said, "No, now the entire palace is discussing that it was the empress who killed the murderer, but the empress clearly did not do such a thing!"

Seeing the Queen and An Guiren kneeling, Wang Guiren quickly knelt down as well.

There are only four concubines in the palace, and now all three of them knelt down and begged the Queen Mother to tell the story.

If they don't say it, these three people are afraid that they will publicize this matter by themselves, and the empress dowager's reputation will drop a bit by then.
