Chapter 147 Murder Case
Concubine Rong's face was ugly, as if she had thought of something, she pulled up Rong Xian'er in her arms, and stared at her fiercely, the latter looked bewildered, not knowing what was going on.

Emperor Feng's face turned livid after being stunned for a moment, feeling that today's events would never end one after another, and angrily shouted at the imperial guards on the left and right: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you go and see what's going on?"

There was a murder case under his nose, so Emperor Feng naturally couldn't leave without heeding it, at least he had to listen to a news report.

A group of people then entered the main hall, several maidservants were busy back and forth, tea and fruit snacks were placed on the couch after a while, but a few people were not thinking about it, just waiting for the news report from outside the hall .

Concubine Rong's complexion was not good, but she still held her own, and said a few words from time to time in a soft voice.

About a quarter of an hour later, soldiers from the Royal Forest Army entered the palace to report.

The person who died was a palace maid named Xiaotao, who personally served His Royal Highness the Second Princess. There was a sound in the door, and when she went to knock on the door, she was found lying on the ground in pain, and died within two strokes.

It's just a little servant girl, Emperor Feng didn't want to stay any longer after getting the report, and was about to say "Let the Punishment Division take over" when Feng Wei interrupted, "Xiaotao? Isn't it me?" Is the palace maid you want to ask? Why did he die?"

Emperor Feng frowned at her mention, "That's her?"

Feng Wei nodded, "That's right, there was almost no one around Yuhu Lake on the day Yao'er fell into the lake, so I expanded the time range a little bit, someone saw Chuntao haunting around Yuhu Lake at that point, and wanted to call her here Ask about the situation." She paused here, as if she wanted to understand, and suddenly sneered, "Now it seems that there is no need to ask!"

Ever since Rong Xian'er heard that it was Xiaotao who died, she was in a daze. Now that she heard Fengwei's last sentence, she almost jumped up in panic like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and shouted: "Fengwei! What are you saying? What means?"

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Feng snorted and said angrily, "What do you look like? What are you going to do with your imperial sister who yells like this?"

Concubine Rong grabbed Rong Xian'er's sleeve, pulled it hard, stretched out her hand to press the back of her hand, and didn't care about scolding her, she explained softly to Emperor Feng: "Xiao Tao has been by Xian'er's side since she was a child. The most important thing is friendship, now that I hear the bad news, I can't accept it for a while and I'm dizzy."

As she said that, she lowered her head and scolded Rong Xian'er, "No matter how deep your master-servant friendship is, it can't surpass you and your imperial sister! Are you deceived?!"

Rong Xian'er's body trembled slightly, she was close to her, she lowered her head and said nothing, Concubine Rong raised her head after saying a few words, and said to Feng Wei, "Wei'er, Xian'er is still young, please take care of me .”

"Oh." Fengwei didn't want to bicker and play with her back and forth, so she responded in a low voice and didn't talk to her again. There are some things that she doesn't need to say. If she said it, it would have the opposite effect .

Moreover, the father has already received the report and will leave at any time. As long as she accepts Concubine Rong's words, the latter will have a way to talk about other things. Isn't that the idea?
Looking up at the impatient Emperor Feng below, Feng Wei asked the soldier, "Where did you find out the poison?" After the inspection by Wu and the Tai Hospital's research and judgment, it will be impossible to know what the poison is for a while.

"Put it in a cup of water inside the house."

"Is there any poison in the pot?"

"none."

"Someone has been in and out of the deceased's house, do you know?"

The soldier hesitated for a moment, and replied, "I haven't checked yet."

Feng Wei looked at Emperor Feng, "Father, why don't you ask me? I'm curious, why did this happen when I wanted to ask someone to ask questions, could it be that I killed a person with just one word?"

She said this with sarcasm, as if she meant something, when it came to this point, if Emperor Feng refused to agree, it would be unreasonable, so he nodded with a sullen face.

The soldier retreated after he got the words, and the hall fell silent, Fengwei glanced at Concubine Rong and her daughter from time to time, with a complacent expression, but the smile on her lips was cold.

After a while, I heard the report, the person who came was no longer the soldier before, but a servant of the Punishment Department, knelt on the ground and told the details of the question one by one, and also attached a letter the survey results.

"According to the servant girl in the same courtyard, Xiaotao was supposed to be on duty today, but she was sent back to the room by the second princess for some reason, and kept the door tightly closed. Some maids wanted to ask her for a needle and thread, so they knocked on the door. But there was no voice at the door, so I thought she wasn't there. But just as she left, she saw Qin Xin, who was next to the second princess, knocked on the door and entered, and left after a while. No more."

"Wu Zuo's investigation found that the onset of poisoning will not exceed a quarter of an hour. This kind of poison is widely distributed in the outside world. It is superficial and poisonous. People who are poisoned will suffer great pain before they die. I don't know how it will appear in the court."

The people in the hall heard the waiter's words clearly, Feng Wei's face became tense at some point, and she asked coldly: "So, after she returned to her room, only Qin Xin came to her room, did she not come to her room?" Others?"

"Yes." Strictly speaking, there is also the maidservant who heard the movement and found Xiaotao dead, but when she heard the movement, there were other people by her side, and she immediately screamed to attract people, and there was no time for poisoning , was excluded by the Department of Punishment.

"Father, you can ask my sister to tell me what's going on."

"I... I don't know anything." Rong Xianer's face was pale, she raised her head and looked at Emperor Feng in pain, tears streaming down her face, "Father, I really don't know! She was not feeling well, so I allowed her to go back to her room to rest, Qin Xin went to visit her, I really don't know how this happened!"

Rong Xian'er was stunned, and she didn't know how it came to be like this. When Feng Wei brought someone to ask Xiao Tao for questioning, she bumped into her at the palace gate. It was Xiaotao who took her with her, and she was the one who came to change her clothes when she came back. She only said that she had gone to the garden, and the maidservants around her had also concealed it from her, but only Xiaotao, her panic and bewilderment that day was gone. In her eyes, I'm afraid she has a guess in her heart.

Rong Xian'er knew about Fengwei's big moves in Liushang Palace, and saw her naming important people by name. She thought she had found out something, and only hated herself for not being cruel enough to deal with Xiaotao together!In a panic, she quietly sent Xiaotao back to her room, and told Fengwei that she was not here to wait on her when she was sick, and that it was quite serious, and that she would take her to Zhiwei Palace when she was well.

Unexpectedly, Feng Wei insisted on going in to have a look, of course Rong Xian'er would stop her, Xiao Tao was pretending to be sick, so naturally she needed some time to make up the pretense, but Feng Wei's attitude was tough, and the two maidservants brought back from Feng's house by her side were very skilled. It's not so good, but fortunately, she sent someone to inform Emperor Feng, thinking that as long as it takes a while, even if she sees Xiaotao, Fengwei will ignore her!The father has always disliked her, and he will definitely stand by his side when the time comes, and after Feng Wei is dismissed, he will discuss with the concubine mother what to do.

Qin Xin was sent by her to give advice and help Xiao Tao. After all, her father is coming, so how can she not pretend to be a little bit, but why did Xiao Tao die in the end? !
