Chapter 444 Investigation (2)
"Really? Isn't it because of what you said to her?"

"I, I... I didn't say anything to her..."

"You are her personal servant girl. She was punished by the rod and you didn't guard her to serve her at night. Where are you? How did you find out that her body was so cold? What were you doing that night?" Han Qian asked repeatedly.

"I, I, I..."

"What did Gu Ningshuang say to Zhao Yuan that night? What did Liu Ying say to you? What did you say to Zhao Yuan?"

"Servant, servant... I don't remember."

"Don't remember?" Han Qian sneered, "It's okay if you don't remember, come and help her remember it well."

"Yes." Sun Defu who was next to him hurriedly nodded in agreement, waved his hand to the outside, and someone came in immediately and pulled Qianfen out.

The palace supervisors naturally have their own set of torture methods, those methods will not leave any traces on people, but will make life worse than death.

After a while, Qian Fen was brought back. Although she was still the same person, it seemed like a different person.

The two eunuchs threw her to the ground, and she fell to the ground as if she had no bones.

"Do you remember?" Han Qian asked lightly.

"Your servant... I really didn't say anything, my servant just tried to persuade our girl to think about it..."

"It seems that I still haven't remembered it." Han Qian sneered, "I'll remind her again."

"No—no!" Qian Fan wailed and crawled forward twice, "No, the slave said, the slave said..."

"Speak. Bengong is listening." Han Qian snorted coldly.

"That day, that day... Sister Liuying told me that there are actually many ways for one person to remember another person's words, and one of the best ways is to regret it. She said, if our girl dies because of this stick If there is any malice, Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely feel guilty and regret it. Also, Sister Liuying said that our girl was punished twenty times and her leg bones were broken. The imperial doctor said that her leg will definitely be disabled. Well, our girl will become crippled. The servant accidentally told us all these words, and our girl just... just couldn't think about it for a while, so she hanged herself..."

"Who said that Zhao Yuan's leg was broken, and who said that she would become crippled in the future?" Han Qian asked with a frown.

"Yes... Sister Liuying told me."

"Then where were you when your girls hanged themselves? Why didn't you find out in time?"

"I, I... I fell asleep."

"Can you fall asleep at that time?"

"I really fell asleep. Sister Liuying brought our girl a bowl of chicken soup. Our girl didn't want to drink it. I... I drank it. I fell asleep after a while, until someone told our girl to hang herself I just woke up, I asked Sister Liuying, she said that she was afraid of our girl's pain, so she put two calming medicines..."

"Hmph!" Han Qian glanced at Sun Defu, "This girl is still not telling the truth. Sun Defu..."

"Your Majesty—" Qian Fan wailed again after hearing this, "Your Majesty, forgive me!"

"If you want to save your life, tell the truth. Your empress' patience is limited!" Sun Defu scolded dissatisfied.

"Your servant deserves to die, it's because your servant has thoughts that you shouldn't have, slave...you should die!"

"Say!" A eunuch next to him stepped forward and poked the light powder hard.

"Your servant... I was thinking, thinking that if our girl left like this, His Majesty would feel guilty, and I would, would...will come to find my servant... So, at that time, my servant knew that there was a tranquilizing medicine in that bowl of soup. So I, I, I drink."

"Pfft!" Han Qian laughed all of a sudden.

Pingguo'er and the others standing beside him, including Sun Defu, all stared wide-eyed, looking at the light powder lying on the ground as if they were looking at a monster.

"You... like Your Majesty?" After laughing, Han Qian realized that the last thing he should do is to laugh, so his face sullen again.

"Your Majesty, don't get me wrong, this servant just, just admires His Majesty... This servant never dares to have any unreasonable thoughts about His Majesty..."

"Okay, don't talk about it." Han Qian didn't bother to know what kind of thoughts this little girl had for Yun Shuo. She looked coldly at the eunuch who was in charge of recording the statement in the palace supervisor: "Remember everything that should be remembered." Is it down?"

"Going back to the Empress, the confession has been recorded, and the only thing left is to sign and draw."

"Give it to her." Han Qian raised his chin.

The eunuch took the statement and stepped forward, and Qian Fan signed it, and then fell to the ground slumped, unable to even cry.

Han Qian got up, frowned and glanced at Qian Fen, then sighed softly: "Let's go."

"Yes." Sun Defu bowed in response, and turned to tell the palace supervisor: "Take care of her, and don't allow anyone to visit her, and don't allow her to commit suicide."

"Yes, Eunuch Sun." The palace supervisor hurriedly agreed to go up and pick him up and take him to the palace supervisor.

Liuying has been panicking since the sudden disappearance of Qianfen.Especially at night, when no one was seen, Liu Ying became more and more anxious and uneasy.

When Gu Ningshuang found out that Liuying was panicking, Liuying had already walked around the Fanghua Pavilion many times.

"What are you looking for?" Gu Ningshuang asked in confusion.

"Back to Miss, I haven't seen Qianfan since yesterday, so I don't know where she has gone." Liu Ying asked worriedly.

"Where can she go at such a big age?" Gu Ningshuang didn't care much, "Didn't you ask if other people saw her? Or, where did she go to find someone to play with?"

"She has no acquaintance in this palace at all, who can she find to play with?" Liu Ying always felt a little bad, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Gu Ningshuang sighed softly when she saw her distraught look: "Okay, don't worry about it. Go and pour me a cup of tea."

"Yes." Liuying agreed and turned around, before she could leave, she saw Sun Defu coming in with two eunuchs.So he smiled in surprise, stepped forward and saluted, "Ah, Eunuch Sun is here?"

"Miss Liuying, we have something to ask you, so come with us." Sun Defu said lightly.

"Eunuch Sun, what's the matter with you?" Liuying smiled sweetly.

Sun Defu glanced at Gu Ningshuang who came out from inside, smiled lightly, and said, "It's business, let's go."

"Eunuch, what's the matter?" Gu Ningshuang walked over with a smile and stood in front of Liuying.

Sun Defu bowed, and said with a smile: "Girl, there was a murder case in the palace, and the servant is just a routine matter. Take Miss Liuying to ask a question."

"Homicide?!" Gu Ningshuang was taken aback, "Who died again?"

"No one died again, it's a previous case. Girl, don't worry, I just asked Miss Liuying to go over and ask a question." Sun Defu's answer was watertight.
