Chapter 78 The Death of Concubine Shu (4)
Murong Zhen's heart felt inexplicably relieved, and he nodded lightly in response.

Behind him, Nalan was still standing where he was, just looking at the backs of the two men, rubbing his chin thoughtfully, then Ban Xing sighed faintly, shaking his head and said: "It's really a girl who doesn't want to stay! Think about it, how much dowry should I ask Shangguan Yunqing for?"

Shangguan Yunqing and Murong Zhen came to the front yard, and the housekeeper who didn't know what he was busy with hurriedly appeared in front of them, leaned forward and said: "My lord, my concubine, I heard that when Concubine Shu returned to the bedroom, she was still in pain all over. It is also said that there is no serious problem, and it will be fine after a period of cultivation, but in a blink of an eye, it suddenly starts to vomit blood, and it takes less than half an hour to die."

"Explain clearly." Shangguan Yunqing said in a deep voice.

"Yes, the old slave inquired carefully again, and learned that the imperial doctor did not find any discomfort in her body when she first diagnosed Concubine Shu, but after a second examination, she found that the back of Concubine Shu's head had been severely impacted. The root was injured so that the gods couldn't save it, and the people who approached Concubine Shu at that time were all her palace servants."

Murong Zhen couldn't help pointing at himself when he heard this, and said, "In other words, I'm the most suspicious?"

"Returning to the princess, more correctly, it can only be you."

"Why is this?"

"During the first diagnosis by the imperial physician, no concubine Shu's body was found to have any discomfort, and there were not too many serious injuries, but the concubine Shu was clearly in pain all over her body, which meant that the princess must have a special method that no one else knew about. .”

"And this method, maybe you can temporarily hide the injury, and wait until a certain time before it explodes suddenly, which is the fatal impact on the back of Concubine Shu's head?" Murong Zhen immediately understood the problem, and couldn't help frowning slightly Raising eyebrows, murmured, "I'm not a god, how can I do that?"

Shangguan Yunqing held her hand tightly, and continued to ask: "After we left today, has anyone approached Concubine Shu? Especially during the period after the imperial physician's first diagnosis, who has approached Concubine Shu?" concubine?"

The butler thought for a while, then bent down, and said, "My lord, forgive me, time is running short, and the old slave hasn't found anything yet."

Murong Zhen squinted his eyes and let the light shine, then turned his head and asked, "If things go on like this, what will happen to me?"

"Zhen'er?"

"Murdering the concubine, even if I am the concubine, I can pay for it with my life, right?"

A murderous look flashed across Shangguan Yunqing's eyes, then he smiled and squeezed her hand tightly, and said, "You didn't kill Concubine Shu, so what are you worried about? By the way, Zhen'er, how did you manage to make Concubine Shu feel so painful? No wound?"

Although asking this now may seem like a diversion, he is indeed very curious about this matter. He didn't know that Zhen'er of his family had such abilities before.

Murong Zhen cast a slanted glance at him, and said, "Have you heard of it?"

"No." His Royal Highness King Ning shook his head honestly, with doubts on his face, and said, "I am also familiar with the world's martial arts, but I have never heard of such a weak hand. here?"

"Haven't heard of it?" Murong Zhen was surprised now, she thought that in this world of martial arts, there must be such a thing.

But she was soon relieved that it was normal for these two completely different worlds to be somewhat different, and what she needed to solve first was Concubine Shu's death.

But before they figured out why, the people Shangguan Yunqing sent out to investigate secretly had not returned any news. Suddenly, soldiers from the Ministry of Punishment came in full outfit, some of them surrounded the gate of King Ning's Mansion, and others directly rushed into the mansion.

"The imperial edict is here!" A white-faced eunuch walked into the palace first holding the imperial edict aloft. Behind him were a group of soldiers from the Ministry of Punishment. Accept the order."

Shangguan Yunqing looked at him with a smile, and then swept across the soldiers of the Ministry of Punishment lined up in two rows behind him. Shi Shiran stood up but did not kneel down, and said casually, "Read it."

The father-in-law shivered, and slowly unfolded the imperial decree held high in both hands, and read: "By God's blessing, the emperor's decree said: Princess Ning Murong dares to harm the imperial concubine, such a cruel and vicious woman, it is intolerable in the world, it is a crime." Deserving of death, I will be sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for strict guarding, and will be executed at noon three days later! Hereby!"

Shangguan Yunqing suddenly raised his head, staring at the scroll of bright yellow imperial decree, something was bubbling out uncontrollably, dark and bitingly cold.

"You don't even need to interrogate and collect evidence?" Murong Zhen's face was calm, only his eyes were full of sarcasm.

The father-in-law shook his face again, under such strong pressure, it was inevitable that a thin layer of cold sweat would break out on his forehead, he gathered up the imperial edict again, handed it to Murong Zhen, and said: "Princess, please accept the edict."

As soon as Murong Zhen stretched out his hand, Shangguan Yunqing stretched out his hand one step ahead and picked it lightly, and flew the imperial decree far away, drawing a bright yellow arc in the air, and then there was a "pounce" Scattered on the ground in an extremely humble gesture.

All the people were frightened by this situation and their faces changed. Although they had heard that His Royal Highness King Ning was deviant and disregarded the imperial decree, but what he heard was what he heard after all. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would definitely not feel it. That tremor.

"My lord, you..."

"Shut up!" Shangguan Yunqing shouted coldly, almost stepped forward to step on the imperial decree, and coldly glanced at the soldiers of the Ministry of Punishment who were facing the enemy, and said, "I want to see, who can do it today?" Take Zhen'er out of Prince Ning's Mansion!"

As soon as his words fell, the guards of the palace immediately appeared and stood in front of Murong Zhen.

"Shangguan Yunqing, are you crazy?" Suddenly a discordant voice sounded from outside the door, and then Prince Feng, who should never have appeared here, walked in leisurely, without being greeted by anyone. The guest picked a chair and sat down, looked at the situation in front of him with interest, and asked, "Are you not clear about the current situation, or are you willing to risk the disgrace of the world for your princess?"
