Chapter 426 The Death of Tianhe
After a while, everyone gathered in the square, including Tong Zhuzhu and Xiao Ninglang.

When she came to the well, seeing so many people, she was a little curious, looked at Xiao Ninglang and said:

"What happened to you? Why did you call us here suddenly?"

Xiao Ninglang frowned, looked at the crowds of people in front of him, and said in a deep voice:
"I'm afraid it's a big deal, Tongtong will be more careful in a while."

There was also a trace of caution in her eyes, and she nodded vigorously.

Han Xiang took Nianyan and they went to find some court ladies they knew in the crowd to inquire about.

"Xiaoyan, what happened? Do you know?"

The maid named Xiaoyan turned her head and saw that it was someone she knew, and quickly whispered:
"Sister Hanxiang, I heard that a court lady died, her face was so ruined that she couldn't be seen, that's why the emperor asked people from various palaces to identify her."

The three of Hanxiang heard this, and their faces were full of sighs. It has been a long time since the death of the maids happened. The lives of their maids should be the least valuable in this place that eats people but does not spit out their bones.

Several people returned to Tong girl's side with sad faces, and when she saw the three of them returning with mournful faces, she asked puzzledly:
"Didn't the three of you say you were going to inquire? Why are you so sad?"

Xiaolan pursed her mouth, looked at her with some melancholy, and said in a low voice:
"Girl, it was a little maid who died in the well."

She was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that it was a dead person, and she suddenly understood why the three of them were crying?In this palace, the lives of the ladies of the first palace are thinner than paper, let alone little palace ladies like them.

"Okay, don't think too much, at least when you follow me, I will definitely not let you have any accidents."

Speaking of this, Hanxiang and the others felt a little relieved in their hearts. After getting along with each other for the past few days, they already knew that Miss Tong was a good person and treated them like a friend.

Although they knew that Miss Tong didn't have any rights or status, they were full of confidence in her because she could take care of Nanny Li.

Hanxiang looked at Xiaolan and Nianyan beside her, held their hands, and said with a smile:

"We should trust the Tong girl and stop crying."

"Ah."

Both of them nodded, and their expressions were not as depressed as before.

She looked at the three of them with a relieved smile.

Finally, when they went to the Tianyue Pavilion to identify them, Helian Tianjue looked at her and said lightly:
"Just go up and see if it's someone from your palace?"

I don't know if it's because she's afraid, but I couldn't help reminding him, which made all the concubines jealous.

It's really unbalanced that a country girl can make the emperor treat her so politely, so for a moment, all eyes are on the people in her palace.

She cast her eyes on the person lying on the ground, and she was shocked at first glance, that she died so terribly!There is no good skin all over the body, and the face is full of whip wounds, which are white and swollen with blisters, and look extremely inferior.

Seeing that her complexion didn't look very good, Xiao Ninglang who was standing beside her said in a low voice:
"Don't read it if you can't stand it, you don't know him anyway, just let Hanxiang and the others take a look."

Hearing the voice next to her, she really turned her eyes away a little, just in time to meet a pair of charming eyes, the viciousness in them flashed past, she squinted her eyes and looked at Concubine Liang, as if she was very happy, What are you doing smiling so happily?
At this moment, there was a bitter cry in his ear.

"Tianhe! She is Tianhe!"

The voice of Nian Yan resounded in the crowd, and Han Xiang and Xiao Lan were also stunned. They looked at the lying person, and couldn't believe it, this person could be Tianhe!

Han Xiang frowned, looked at the people around, walked over, held Nian Yan, and asked sharply:

"Nianyan, are you sure you didn't admit your mistake? Is she really Tianhe?"

Nianyan, whose face was full of tears, was already sobbing. He pointed to a spot on the female corpse with his white finger, and said in pain:
"Sister Hanxiang, I really did not admit my mistake. She is Tianhe. I gave her the pouch around her waist, and there are my names and her names on it."

Hearing this, the crowd instantly exploded.

Helian Tianjue said with an ugly expression:
"Eunuch Chen, go and verify whether what she said is true?"

"Yes, the old slave is going."

As expected of an old man in the palace, he went straight forward, without fear of the horror of the female corpse, he directly grabbed the purse from her waist, and sure enough, he saw the words Tianhe Nianyan on it.

"Back to the emperor, what she said is true, and they do have their names."

Tong Zhuzhu suddenly felt something was wrong, and suddenly looked in the direction of the red.

Concubine Liang's eyes never left her, and the smile on her face was even better.

By the way, this matter must have something to do with her again, she chose to find Tianhe, and I am afraid that the ultimate goal is herself.

Xiao Ninglang obviously also noticed that there was nothing like this in the world, but it was the people in her palace who died.

The people from the Qin Tianjian had already arrived, and a man with a box came to the emperor.

"My humble minister sees the emperor, long live my emperor."

"Excuse me, take a good look at the cause of this maid's death."

"Yes! As ordered."

After speaking, he carried the suitcase and came to Tianhe's side. Seeing the miserable state of his whole body, he took a breath of cold air on his face.

Take out the silver needle, insert it into the throat, and pull it out again.After checking the scars on his face and the marks on his body, he finally came to a conclusion.

"Report to the emperor, this court lady shows no signs of poisoning, she was beaten to death with a whip."

When the people present heard it, there was an uproar, everyone gasped, and looked at Tong Zhuzhu and the others with expressions of fear.

"Also, I found out that the whips used to whip the maid's body and face were two different kinds of whips."

After he finished speaking, he paused, this method was really crueler than their Qin Tianjian, and he couldn't bear to continue talking.

His face was gloomy, his eyes were full of hostility, and he said sharply:
"Go on."

"Yes, the body was whipped with a tool with blades, and the face was beaten with a tool with barbs, so this court lady should be hurt to death."

After finishing speaking, his resolute face was already covered with sweat. Even if he was himself, he had never heard of this kind of punishment tool. It was too inhuman.

"Your Majesty, since she is the one who was lost in the girl's palace, should I ask her first? If she beat the one, wouldn't there be another person with a vicious heart in our palace? She is not worthy of cooking. The emperor ate it."

Helian Tianjue stared dangerously at Concubine Liang Guifei in front of him. Looking at her red dress, he felt dazzling. Only that person would look the best in this color.

"She is not such a person. The person who did this matter is someone else."

Hearing this, all the concubines around couldn't believe it, the emperor didn't even check it, but just protected that country girl?
