Princess she is arrogant

Chapter 143 The Cracked Clue

After the chief guard left, the emperor suppressed his soaring anger, and glanced at the ministers present: "My dear ministers, what do you think?"

Who would dare to express his opinion on such a difficult matter, but when the emperor asked, no one could say anything.

Therefore, under the pressure of the emperor, an old courtier came out from the side, and secretly suppressed the fear in his heart: "Back to the emperor, the old courtier thought that the murderer was going to sneak into the palace with the body of Concubine Rong. It needs superior internal strength, this person must have extremely high martial arts. However, after throwing away the body, he suddenly disappeared without anyone noticing the clues, which is a little unbelievable, the old minister thought that the person must be hiding somewhere in the palace."

There was a long series of words, and the emperor's face turned darker even after he said it as if he hadn't said it. But after all, everyone knew how tricky this matter was.

Originally, this was a question that everyone wanted to avoid, but there was one person who made everyone's eyes widen.

Meng Rushuang, who had been by the prince's side all the time, walked into the hall step by step. She covered her red hijab, but walked steadily.

When Meng Rushuang came out, Gu Bainan paid attention to the prince from the corner of his eye, and saw that the prince retracted his outstretched hand, frowning tightly.It seems that Meng Rushuang's coming out was not discussed with the prince.

"My father, I know a thing or two about the fragrance of the three corpses." It has already been done, so even if Meng Rushuang is still covering her red hijab, she is still a serious princess.

The emperor hesitated for a moment before letting Meng Rushuang continue.

"I have heard in the south two years ago that the fragrance of the three corpses is not easy to remove once it is contaminated. Perhaps the smell of this corpse can be used as a clue to search. Another point is that although the refined corpse is not perishable, But the surface is very fragile. If you travel a long distance, the surface of the corpse will definitely crack. Since you can easily recognize that it is the corpse of Concubine Rong, then Erchen thinks that there must be no cracks on the corpse. It was even refined in the imperial city near the city."

Under the red hijab, Meng Rushuang spoke word by word.Her words made the people in Zijin Palace look at each other again.

Gu Bainan bent his lips, quietly watching Meng Rushuang speak there.This had nothing to do with Donggong, it had nothing to do with her Meng Rushuang, how could she be so active all of a sudden.

After Meng Rushuang finished speaking, the emperor looked at Feng Xuzi: "Follow the smell to check! No matter where, as long as there is the smell of three corpses, let me go in and search!"

Feng Xuzi cupped his hands, answered "Yes" and hurried out of the Zijin Palace.

Meng Rushuang, who was standing in the palace, should have retreated to the Prince's side after she had finished speaking, but at this moment she tilted her head, and turned her face under the red hijab to the seat of the royal family where Gu Bainan was: "I heard that Princess Qin is intelligent Extraordinary, I don't know what the princess thinks about this matter?"

When Meng Rushuang asked, everyone looked towards Gu Bainan, even the emperor's gaze was extremely ambiguous.

This is the purpose of Meng Rushuang coming out to speak, right?

Gu Bainan smiled secretly, got up slowly, stood on the seat and casually gave the emperor his hand: "The minister's wit is too clever to discuss politics."

She wouldn't say a word about this kind of thing.Not to mention that she didn't know about Sanshixiang, even if she knew, she couldn't talk about such an exciting thing.Because Bao Buqi now just wanted her to talk, and then set up a trap for her to dig a hole and bury herself.

Obviously, the emperor was dissatisfied with Gu Bainan's answer.He didn't think of asking her at first, but when Meng Rushuang said it, he really wanted to see what she would say, but she actually said she wouldn't discuss politics.

"It's just talking, not discussing politics." The emperor's tone was a little cold, as if he was hiding a thorn.

Jun Yechen obviously felt that something was wrong, he glanced at Gu Bainan, stood in the hall without thinking, and respectfully saluted the emperor: "Father, how many people have never heard of the scent of three corpses, the emperor's aunt can only tell stories , and have never been to the South China Sea, my son thinks that the Emperor's Aunt should not know as much as the Crown Princess about this matter."

Seeing Jun Yechen come out to speak for Gu Bainan, the queen above was startled, and kept winking at Jun Yechen.But Jun Yechen not only didn't see it, but turned to Meng Rushuang: "Since the princess is so well-informed, she must be able to come up with a better plan."

Even saying a few words was just throwing the burden on Gu Bainan, Jun Yechen's actions made the emperor even more dissatisfied.

Sensing the cold breath coming from above, Gu Bainan smiled, walked slowly into the hall step by step, and said softly: "Although this is the first time I have heard of the fragrance of the three corpses, but according to what the Crown Princess said just now, it should be possible to investigate. There will be gains. But since this matter is related to Concubine Rong, can it be connected with the theft of Concubine Rong's body earlier, and everything related to Concubine Rong should be checked again?"

She didn't want Jun Yechen to be involved in the first place, and the end of the crane was really annoying, so she couldn't do it if she wanted to keep her mouth shut.

Her words finally eased the emperor's face, but Jun Yechen frowned and sweated secretly.But after she finished speaking, Jun Yechen couldn't protect her too much, otherwise it would only make people think there was a problem.

The emperor stared at Gu Bainan deeply for a moment, and then said: "In your opinion, the palace, servants, and even the mausoleum of Concubine Rong should be checked again?"

His cold words somewhat confirmed the meaning of Gu Bainan's words, Gu Bainan held back his nerves, and said lightly without fear: "My wife is just expressing her own thoughts, as for how to investigate, I believe the emperor will make his own decision."

"Well," the emperor nodded, waved his hand, motioned them all to return to their original positions, and said seriously, "Dali Temple, re-examine all those who have served Concubine Rong, and search the palace and tomb carefully."

"Yes." Dali Siqing took the order and left.

Concubine Rong's body completely messed up the prince's marriage. The ministers left one by one to investigate. Although the others were not under the pressure of investigating the case, they were nervous enough to bear the pressure of the emperor in the Zijin Palace.

Gu Bainan solved Meng Rushuang's attack and sat quietly on the jade chair, but she felt more and more weird in her heart, the whole thing happened unexpectedly, and the connection was fragmented, as if someone threw an The broken clues made it seem like a new breakthrough in the theft of Concubine Rong's body, but it was actually more complicated.

Time passed little by little, and when everyone was exhausted from waiting, Feng Xuzi who went out to investigate finally returned.

"Your Majesty, what the Crown Princess said is indeed true. The smell of the fragrance of the three corpses is indeed not easy to dissipate. The ministers have found the path in the palace after searching for the smell, and it has spread to the outside of the palace, but," Feng Xuzi said, Looking sideways at Gu Bainan, "The smell is outside the palace gate, so it doesn't spread anymore."

The implication is that the point outside the palace gate is either the beginning or the end.

Sensing Feng Xuzi's strange gaze, Gu Bainan frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes froze: Oh no!
