As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 315 The Murderer
"I don't know. He suddenly disappeared when I was taking him to change clothes. When he heard the noise, he fell into the water." Xie Zhaozhao took off Yun Qi's clothes. "Brother is soaked all over. Give it to him."

Yun Qi said: "Brother Xie is all wet, and putting on some clothes won't do much good. I'll have someone take him to change."

Xie Changyu didn't seem to be far away.

Xie Zhaozhao knew that he was worried about the child, so he said: "My father, mother and sister have already gone to Xianfei Palace to look after the child. Brother, just change your clothes and go over quickly."

"...That's fine." Xie Changyu responded and turned around to leave.

As soon as he left, Yun Qi said: "You also go to Xianfu Palace to see the child, and change your clothes while I'm here to check."

"No need." Xie Zhaozhao shook his head and said, "I'm just a little wet on my sleeves. It's okay. Let's go together."

Yun Qi looked at her carefully and saw that she was indeed dry except for her sleeves, so he wrung out the water on her sleeves, and then carefully gathered his robe for Xie Zhaozhao before calling in the patrolling imperial troops. Ask about the investigation.

Today is the birthday banquet of Emperor Xuanwu. There is a lot of movement in the palace, and it is still under this night.

It is not easy to find a young eunuch whose face has not been seen.

After asking around, Yun Qi did not get any useful information, so he said to Xie Zhaozhao: "Ask the child when he wakes up."

"Hmm." Xie Zhaozhao thought for a while, "Let's go see that child. Why did he suddenly come to Yuhe? There should be someone around him to take care of him."

"Maybe we can know something."

Yun Qidang took Xie Zhaozhao's hand and went to Chu He.

Chu He still lives in Concubine Ning's palace.

Concubine Ning has been on the sickbed for a long time, and Chu He has always been the nun and maid in the palace taking care of her.

Tonight, Chu He fell into the water and fell ill. The imperial doctor was doing his best to treat him. The palace maids and the attendants all turned pale with shock. They all knelt in the palace courtyard and did not dare to breathe.

Chu He's identity is no longer a secret in this palace.

Although Concubine Ning is now in disgrace to Emperor Xuanwu, and King Liang is dead and King Zhou is in a coma, Chu He is still the royal heir.

Emperor Xuanwu would occasionally reward the child with something.

Now that something happened to this child, how could these servants not be frightened and lose half of their lives?

After Yun Qi brought Xie Zhaozhao in, the servants didn't even react to salute. The eunuch who was accompanying him scolded him, and everyone reacted and greeted Yun Qi.

"No need." Yun Qi said indifferently: "How is the child's condition?"

An old woman quickly replied: "The imperial doctor is treating her, but she hasn't heard anything yet."

Yun Qi asked: "Who is following him tonight?"

"It's the old slave." The old nun knelt down a little closer and answered cautiously: "Mr. He is accompanied by Aunt Chu during the day and the old slave at night."

"Then why did he go to the Yuhe River?"

"I don't know... During the day, Young Master He had a stomachache, so he slept all day. In the afternoon, he heard the bustle in front of him and insisted on going to have a look. I was afraid that he would disturb His Majesty's birthday banquet, so I didn't want him to. I took him there, but he was really annoying——"

The old mama said tremblingly: "I was afraid that he would disturb Concubine Ning while she was resting, so I had no choice but to take him over, but, but -"

At this point, the grandma started to stutter.

"But what?" Xie Zhaozhao asked, "The cry for help at that time seemed to be from a eunuch, so you were not with him when he fell into the water? Then where were you?"

The old lady turned pale, "Old slave, old slave was right next to the young master, and then she was so frightened that she was really——"

Yun Qi sneered: "Liar! The child has already floated some distance away from the shore, and you are still so frightened that you don't even know how to call for help? Are you trying to kill this child?"

"I don't have the courage, Your Highness, I don't dare!" The old nanny immediately kowtowed her head, "Your Highness is aware of it, and I have confessed everything..."

"Master He ran too fast, and the old slave couldn't catch up with him, so he lazily didn't follow him and let the other young eunuchs chase him."

"Who would have known that the little eunuch saw the child falling into the water when he came over?" "Your Highness, please check carefully. What the old slave said this time is true. Even if the old slave has ten courages, he would never dare to murder anyone in the palace. Life!"

Yun Qi looked down at the old woman kneeling on the ground and kowtowed, eyebrows raised.

Xie Zhaozhao whispered: "It doesn't look like he was lying."

"Yes." Yun Qi nodded, "Where is the eunuch who called for help?"

"The little guy is here!"

A little eunuch in blue came forward, and Xie Zhaozhao looked at this man without revealing any trace.

She thought to herself that maybe the person who took Xie Huan away at that time did have ulterior motives, but accidentally met Chu He again. Knowing that Chu He was of high status, the little eunuch was scared again, so it was not impossible to call for help at the critical moment.

But the figure of this eunuch was not the one Xie Zhaozhao saw at that time.

Xie Zhaozhao frowned.

The little eunuch said that when he ran over, the two children had already fallen into the water.

At this point, I can only ask the two children why they fell into the water.

But the situation on Chu He's side seemed to be more serious. Yun Qi finally separated from Xie Zhaozhao. He stayed here to wait for the imperial doctor's diagnosis results. Xie Zhaozhao went to Xianfu Palace to check on Xie Huan's condition.

……

Xie Zhaozhao left Concubine Ning's place and went all the way to Xianfu Palace.

Because she was worried about Xie Huan's situation, she walked slowly. When she passed the corner of the palace corridor, she suddenly took half a step back and hid behind a pillar.

Hong Xiu and Hong Xia, who were following behind, immediately retreated and kept silent, carefully looking out.

I saw a woman standing by the rockery, she was clearly Mrs. Jiangninghou.

Mrs. Jiangning Hou looked very anxious. She paced back and forth for a moment, and another woman came out of the rockery.

Xie Zhaozhao recognized that it was Su Yueming, and then the mother and daughter left in a hurry.

Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows and said, "Go over and have a look."

"Yes."

Hong Xiu quickly ran over to investigate for a while and then came back and said: "There are footprints in the rockery, and there is a gap behind it. The person they saw must have gotten out from behind."

"..." Xie Zhaozhao pondered for a moment, "In this case, you go to Concubine Ning's palace and inform His Highness of the matter. I will go to Xianfu Palace to see what Huan'er has to say."

"Yes."

Xie Zhaozhao glanced at the gap in the rockery again and left quickly.

When she arrived at Xianfu Palace, Xie Huan was already awake.

Almost everyone in the Xie family is here.

Xie Huan is now the only child of the third generation of the Xie family. This time, everyone was really frightened. There was a hint of disaster on everyone's face.

Xie Changyu had already changed his clothes. When he saw Xie Zhaozhao, he came over and asked, "How are you doing?"

"Nothing has been found yet." Xie Zhaozhao said, "I want to ask Huan'er, he may know something."

"Then go in."

Xie Changyu came forward. At this time, Mrs. Yu was still sitting on the bed, calling her child dearly. Seeing Xie Zhaozhao coming over, he hurriedly asked what he had found. He was filled with indignation, "What kind of dog who can kill a thousand swords dares to You are plotting against such a young child in the palace!”
