Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 552 The real murderer (1)
Shangguan Zhao was shocked, and tried his best to climb out of the car. The moment his body rolled off the car, he quickly pulled the car and fell into Duanya...

Shangguan Zhao dragged his seriously injured body, stood up slowly, and staggered towards the hot spring villa, with only one thought in his mind: He wanted to meet the emperor, expose Xiao Qingyu's true identity, and tear him into pieces...

The emperor came to the hot spring villa in person to take a bath in the hot spring. Apart from the maids, eunuchs, imperial army, the queen, the prince, and the concubine Jiang were accompanying him.

Mu Yutang stood at the entrance of the hot spring villa, and followed Xiao Qingyu to kneel down and bow to Ruyi: "Welcome to the emperor, empress."

"Normal body." The emperor was wearing a bright yellow uniform, his hair was loosely pulled up with only a jade hairpin, and he didn't wear a crown, but his majestic aura became more and more compelling. Looking at Xiao Qingyu and Mu Yutang who were clasping their fingers, their eyes sank Shen, jokingly said: "I suddenly came to the villa, didn't I disturb you?"

"The emperor's visit to the hot spring villa is the glory of Prince Qi's mansion, so why bother?" Xiao Qingyu said in a low voice, the sound of no wind and waves could not hear the meaning of glory.

"The bedroom is ready, please, Your Majesty!" Xiao Qingyu's complexion was clear and light, the snow-colored brocade robe hung lightly on the ground, spotless, and his every move was so elegant and noble that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

There was a burst of waves in the emperor's dark eyes, and he returned to normal in an instant. He hummed lightly, and was about to enter the villa when a panicked shout came through the air: "Your Majesty!"

The cries were shattering, terrified, the emperor, empress, and Concubine Jiang could not help but turn around and look over, only to see the Shangguan Taiwei running over staggeringly, the brocade robe on his body was tattered, and strands of blood spilled from his mouth , dripping down the chin to the front of the clothes, staining a large area of ​​the clothes red, the handsome face was blood red, the chest was heaving rapidly, and he rushed over desperately.

What happened?How did he become like this?
"Your Majesty, it's dangerous. He's...he's..." Shangguan Taiwei pointed at Xiao Qingyu, his face flushed red, and he roared out of breath. Suddenly, his throat seemed to be blocked by something. He couldn't utter a single word, his eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, and he could only utter a single-syllable ahhh with all his strength.

Shangguan Taiwei's complexion changed drastically, his hands pinched his neck fiercely, his eyes were filled with fear: voice... his voice...how can he be speechless...

what happened?What's going on?

Frightened eyes met Xiao Qingyu's black eyes, the coldness and bloodthirsty hidden in those eyes, and the arrogance that everything was under control, made Shangguan Zhao suddenly understand: Xiao Qingyu didn't really want his life when he hit him with two palms, Instead, he wanted to use him. He thought he was clever enough to escape Xiao Qingyu's clutches, but he didn't want to. His every move was under Xiao Qingyu's control. The current scene was also in Xiao Qingyu's plan, and he fell into Xiao Qingyu's tricks!
Shangguan Zhao looked at Xiao Qingyu, his face full of anxiety, and the fright, horror, and despair in his eyes almost made him collapse. He opened his mouth wide and said silently: "Xiao Qingyu is the son of Prince Chen, and he wants to wash the palace with blood."

Everyone didn't understand what he meant, but Xiao Qingyu understood. The corners of his mouth curled up into a slight smile, which contained indescribable coldness and resentment: Blood debts are paid with blood, it's only right and proper.

Shangguanzhao's chest was in severe pain, and his body's strength was drained instantly. He couldn't stand upright, and fell heavily to the ground. He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't breathe in, like a fish on the verge of death.

He opened his eyes wide and stared at Xiao Qingyu fiercely. Stars flashed in front of his eyes. He couldn't see Xiao Qingyu's expression clearly. His lips were moving, but he couldn't say a word. His eyes gradually protruded and he stopped breathing...

Seeing his frightened expression, the emperor came back to his senses and shouted loudly: "The imperial physician. The imperial physician..."

"The old minister is here." The imperial doctor hurried forward with the medicine box, squatted down and tried Shangguan Zhao's breathing, and sighed softly: "Your Majesty, Shangguan Taiwei has passed away."

The emperor's sharp eyes flickered with coldness. A meritorious court official died in front of him with eyes full of horror. The matter was not simple: "How did he die?"

The imperial doctor carefully inspected Shangguan Zhao's body, and said in a deep voice: "Back to the emperor, Shangguan Taiwei's heart veins were first injured by internal force, and then suffered violent jolts, plus running all the way, causing the heart veins to rupture, resulting in death. !"

The emperor's eyes froze, and he followed Shangguan Zhao's finger to look at Xiao Qingyu, and there was a hint of meaning in his eyes: "Qingyu has seen Shangguan Taiwei before today!"

"I've never seen it before." Xiao Qingyu lied without changing his expression.

"Then why did he point to you before he died?" The emperor looked at Xiao Qingyu with a dark light flashing in his pupils.

"Shangguan Taiwei just pointed in the direction of Weichen, not directly at Weichen. There are many people standing beside Weichen." Xiao Qingyu said softly, his pupils were calm and unwavering.

The emperor's eyes were dark. He came to the hot spring villa in person. The owners, servants, and guests of the villa all went out to greet Xiao Qingyu. There were dozens of people standing beside Xiao Qingyu, and the direction pointed by Shangguan Taiwei was not perpendicular to Xiao Qingyu. There was no conclusive evidence. It is true that the death of Shangguan Taiwei cannot be arbitrarily assigned to Xiao Qingyu.

"My Majesty, I found the broken carriage of the Shangguan Taiwei under the cliff. I found this in the ruins." A royal guard hurried forward and presented a large cotton handkerchief. The cotton handkerchief was pure white. , soft and skin-friendly, with the dark blue Qiwangfu logo embroidered on the corners, small and exquisite, beautiful.

"Shangguan Taiwei has been to the Hot Spring Villa!" The emperor's dark eyes flickered with meaning, and he glanced at Xiao Qingyu intentionally or unintentionally.

It is unavoidable to use a cotton towel to wipe the water when soaking in hot springs. Xiao Qingyu likes white, so the cotton towels prepared in the hot spring villa are all white, soft and comfortable, and have excellent water absorption. They are deeply loved by the nobles. Don't bring your own cotton handkerchief, just use the one from the villa.

Xiao Qingyu's obsidian-like pupils were calm and unwavering, and he looked lightly at the butler of the hot spring villa beside him: "Has the Taiwei ever been to the villa?"

The housekeeper took a step forward and saluted politely: "Return to the emperor, son, Shangguan Taiwei did come to the hot spring villa an hour ago, and the grassroots greeted him, but he didn't even enter the Nuan Pavilion, so he left in a hurry."

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, and said thoughtfully, "Why did you leave in such a hurry?"

"This..." The housekeeper's eyes flickered unnaturally, and his eyelids slightly lowered.

"Why don't you talk?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and his majestic voice was full of anger. The trembling butler's body trembled, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He hurriedly said: "Go back to the emperor, Mrs. Shangguan Wei and Taifu Gu had a big fight, and left the villa in a car angrily."

The queen was startled, how could it involve her father?Looking at Taifu Gu with worried eyes, he saw his gloomy complexion, and a dark light flashed in his pupils!

The emperor glanced at Gu Taifu, and said calmly: "Did you hear what they were arguing about?"
