Poor children

Chapter 270 Funeral
一
Although she had only met Lai Bao in the past few days, Xiao Baihe knew in her heart the importance of Lai Bao to the queen. She was very panicked. Although she did not know why Lai Bao died in the well of her palace, she was smart. Like her, she also knows that this matter is not that simple

With Miss Libao's personality, she would never choose to commit suicide without any reason, but now that she has the words to explain it, she can't explain it.
"Xiao Guiren, go and call all the people in your palace. I have something to ask them." Pao'er had a cold face and felt that his eyes were really scary.

Xiao Baihe hurriedly called the maids around him to call all the people in his palace over.
The pauper knelt down next to Laibao and stopped looking at her.

"Go find some beautiful clothes for our girl, get some hot water, and help her wash up." The poor man stroked Lai Bao's swollen cheeks, which were so swollen that he couldn't even see his face, and then took her tightly clenched hand, as if watching See what she is holding

The pauper tried his best to pry her fingers apart, and saw a corner of red cloth in her hand. It seemed to be a good thing. After being soaked in water for so many days, the color was still bright.

The pauper held the corner of the cloth in her hand. She knew that the corner of the cloth must be related to the cause of Laibao's death, otherwise she would not have let it go until her death.
Where does this red cloth come from and what is it used for? The poor man searched in his mind for places where red cloth is commonly used, and it is also a good-quality silk satin.

While the pauper was thinking, the people serving in Xiao Guiren's palace were already kneeling on the ground.

The pauper was helped by Qiutao to stand up. She looked at them as if they were enemies. Those servants kneeling there naturally knew the seriousness of the matter. They were all too frightened to say anything.
"Have you seen Miss Noble a few nights ago?" Paoer asked.

Everyone said no
"What kind of heresy can be seen at night?" Paoer asked again.

Everyone said no
"Your Highness the Queen, that courtyard has always been abandoned. There are few people in my palace, and few people go to the backyard. The matter of Miss Laibao really has nothing to do with the people in my palace," Xiao Baihe said hurriedly

"Xiao Guiren, take your people back." Pao'er said nothing more and just told them to leave.
Hearing this, Xiao Baihe felt a little surprised, she didn't dare to think that the poor boy would let her go like this

"Xiao Guiren, please go back and let His Highness calm down for a while. If anything happens, just come back." Qiu Huai hurriedly helped Xiao Baihe up.

Xiao Baihe is a smart man. He stood up and hurriedly said goodbye and went back.

When the prince came down from the court, he saw Xiao Dunzi waiting outside the Changping Hall. He saw an anxious look on his face, so he knew something had happened to the queen, so he went up to him and asked.
"Your Highness, the servants really have no idea. Your Highness the Queen looks very scary. The servants really don't know what to do." Xiao Dunzi's eyes were filled with tears and his emotions were about to get out of control.

"What happened?" The prince grabbed Xiao Dunzi's arm and felt that something terrible must have happened.
"Miss Laibao is gone." Xiao Dunzi started crying after saying this.
"Who?" The prince seemed unable to believe the name he heard.
"Miss Laibao, I've been gone for a few days, and I thought I was going to the Regent's Palace. But yesterday someone came from the palace and asked me how many days I've been looking for. I just found it in the well in the backyard of Ningde Palace today."

Hongwen felt dizzy in his head, and it took him a while to wake up. "Does the Regent know this?" Hongwen asked.

"I haven't reported the news yet," Xiaodunzi wiped away his tears.

"Whose palace did you find it in?" Hongwen asked again

"I found it in Xiao Guiren's palace," Xiao Dunzi replied.
"Master Xiao?" The prince thought in his mind, "Does Master Xiao know?"

"There is no news from outside the palace. The Queen is not allowing anyone to leave the palace now." Xiao Dunzi said again, "Prince, please go over and take a look. Her Highness the Queen is not crying, but is so calm that it scares all the servants."

After hearing this, the prince took Xiaodunzi to Ruihua Hall. At this time, Laibao had been washed and dressed by them, and was placed on the bed in the side hall, covered with a white cotton cloth.
Pao'er sat quietly on the edge of the bed, just looking at her blankly.

Hongwen walked into the side hall and saw Laibao's death in a miserable state. He couldn't help but feel sad and burst into tears.

Pao'er raised his head and saw Hongwen coming, so he asked, "Going to court?"

"Mom, if you are sad, just cry," Hongwen advised.

The pauper shook his head when he heard this, and took out the piece of red cloth from his arms. "Look, what is it on? She has been holding it tightly in her hand."

Hongwen hurriedly took it and looked at it carefully, but he couldn't tell what it was. "Does mother think my aunt's death is related to this?"

Paoer nodded, "Sooner or later, let me know who it is, and I have to chop him up."

"Do you want to send a letter to uncle?" Hongwen asked

Pao'er nodded, "Call a few people and send her to the Regent's Palace. That's where her husband's family is. Go to Daliang City and call your uncle back. Let her be laid to rest first."

"Mother" Hongwen was still worried when he saw her being too calm.
"I'm fine, don't worry." After saying this, Paoer took the corner of the red cloth from Hongwen's hand and walked out of the hall.

Pao'er recalled the day when Laibao left Ruihua Palace and followed the path she might have taken, watching as she walked until she reached the backyard of Xiao Guiren's palace.
But along the way, I didn’t find anything unusual.

Chengzhe came back in less than three days
Yiang lost his mother when he was still so young, and the second wife cried to death several times.
The regent's palace just held a [-]-day banquet for my grandson, and the funeral was held just a few days later.
Pao'er didn't come to attend Lai Bao's funeral. After the funeral, Chengzhe wanted to ask for a visit, but Pao'er also refused.

Word spread from the palace that the pauper had locked herself in the palace, without eating, drinking or seeing anyone, so no one could enter the palace or see her.
Zi Tong, Chan Yu, and Wu'er, the few people who could see her, were all pregnant. Two were about to give birth, and one was old and had unstable fetal air. The orderer was not allowed to tell the news to them, for fear that they would get into trouble again.

The palace was anxious, the prince and the regent were both anxious. They didn't know if something would happen to the pauper if things continued like this. However, Tian Xing didn't see him being anxious. He no longer cared about the pauper.

Chengzhe couldn't see the pauper, and he couldn't live without him in the northwest. He stayed at home for two days before setting off to go back.

Before leaving, the old prince asked him to ask a suitable person to invite Master Sanyang back. Perhaps at this time, only Master Sanyang could save her.

Chengzhe agreed. From the time he learned the news of Laibao's death to now, Chengzhe had not eaten a grain of rice, was too sad, and had become extremely thin. Now he could only leave Yiang to his mother. Taking care of him, not long ago, he was a happy family, but now he is alone, leaving alone. He doesn't know how to vent the sadness and hatred in his heart.
The pauper was so quiet that Chunya was a little scared. She didn't understand why she didn't make a fuss and didn't see any action. She just locked herself in the room all day long. This was not like the way she used to be. After all, she What are you thinking about?

As for Pao'er, he was really heartbroken. Because of Lai Bao and Tian Xing, something so big happened to her. Even if he was thinking about the relationship between husband and wife, he shouldn't be like a normal person, even half of him The shadow has never been seen
