cold heart prince

Chapter 36

Early the next morning, a servant brought breakfast to Ji Ke in the dungeon, but was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him, and the basket in his hand fell to the ground. After a long time, the servant came back to his senses Come, scream.

"what!"

Stumbled all the way and ran out.

Seeing the guards seemed to have found a glimmer of light.Tightly tugging at his clothes: "Dead, dead."

The guard was confused and asked puzzledly, "Dead? What died?"

"Ke...Master Ke...he hanged himself." The servant said tremblingly, still in shock.

As soon as the guard finished listening, he threw off the subordinate who was dragging him, and quickly ran to the prison to check. As the man said, Ji Ke hanged himself.

The lifeless body floated back and forth in the air, and the woman had long lost her delicate face. At this moment, her face turned blue and purple, so scary.

"Quick, put her down quickly." The guard hurriedly ordered the people beside him, while he ran out like the wind.Now that the prince is unconscious from poisoning, if something like this happens, he can only report to the manager first.

The manager quickly rushed to the dungeon with the guards, and soon after, the assistant who sent someone to invite him also arrived in a hurry. In the prison, Ji Ke had been put on the ground, waiting for further inspection by the assistant.

Wu Zuo squatted down, inspected Ji Ke's body carefully, and reported.

"The woman died around Haishi, and the method of death was to hang herself until she died."

Ding Shan was stunned, then turned to glance coldly at the guards guarding the prison, and said coldly: "How did you guard it, and no one found out that you died all night?"

The guards were shocked, and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty: "I have neglected my duty, please punish me."

They don't know why they were so groggy last night that they actually fell asleep. When they woke up, they only thought of guarding their posts. They were afraid that if someone found out that they had neglected their duties, they would never think of this master. Will choose to hang himself in the middle of the night, and what's even more strange is that they never heard a sound.

Ding Shan's eyes widened, and he said fiercely: "Go down and bring back thirty boards each."

The guards didn't dare to say more, but they knew in their hearts that this was the lightest thing. If it was the prince who knew about this at this moment, they might not have given such a light punishment: "Thank you, sir, this servant will accept the punishment."

Ding Shan took a deep look at the dead Ji Ke, with a gloomy face, waved his hand, and ordered his servants to carry Ji Ke out and bury him.

Ji Ke's death was widely circulated in the palace. Some said that she was framed to death, while more people believed that she committed suicide because of poisoning the prince.

Everyone blamed Ji Ke, thinking that she deserved to die.

Yushan came to Concubine Xue's room early to help Concubine Xue get up, her face was pale, obviously she hadn't recovered from what happened last night, and the hands that combed Ji Xueer's hair were shaking violently.

"Ah!" Ji Xueer cried out in pain, turned her head quickly, and glared at Yushan angrily: "You have eaten the guts of a leopard."

Yushan was startled suddenly, the comb in his hand fell off, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed hard.

"Your maidservant deserves to die, your maidservant deserves to die, your majesty, please forgive me..." As she spoke, she began to cry, dripping drop by drop into the thick blanket, before disappearing immediately.

Concubine Xue's heart softened, and she got up to help Yushan on the ground: "Yushan, I know you are still afraid of what happened last night, don't worry, if you are loyal to me, I will ensure that you are safe and well."

Yushan kowtowed again and again, swallowing hard: "Thank you, thank you, my servant, I swear to be loyal to my mother."

Last night was the first time she killed someone. Throughout the night, her heart was always uneasy, and her mind kept circling about the eyes that Master Ke stared at her before she died, which made her unable to sleep peacefully.

"I see that you are not in good spirits. I think you didn't sleep well last night. I don't need you to take care of me. Go and rest."

Ji Xue rolled up her embroidered hair in front of the mirror, and said to Yushan who was still kneeling on the ground with concern.

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Yushan panicked and left in a daze.

Because Keyi wanted to use her own blood to save the prince, Ding Shan made the decision to let her have a good rest during this time and not have to serve Concubine Xue for the time being.

One of the reasons why he did this was the prince, and the most important thing was that he really treated her like a master and served her. In addition to ordering An An to serve her well, he even ordered the kitchen to stew large and small tonics and send them to her. A room with Ann.

Concubine Xue was dissatisfied when she heard about it, but there was nothing she could do about it. After all, the prince still relied on her to save him, and he also saved the chief steward.

An An returned to the room with the bird's nest porridge that the manager had just ordered her to go to the kitchen to get, and couldn't wait to tell Keyi the news she had just heard.

"Princess, I just heard some maids on the road saying that Master Ke committed suicide last night in fear of crime and hanged himself to death."

Ke Yi heard this, her beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at An An in disbelief.

"Did Miss Ke admit that she did it?"

An An scooped up a bowl of porridge and put it in front of Keyi, and then said: "I didn't hear what they said, but everyone believes that Master Ke did the poisoning of the prince. Otherwise, why did she hang herself when she was so good?"

Ke Yi lowered her head and thought, the scene of Ji Ke begging her to save her was still in front of her eyes yesterday, she always felt that she was not pretending, if she was really wronged, then why did Concubine Xue want to poison the prince and want to blame Ji Ke? There are many other ways. It is impossible for Concubine Xue to use the prince's life to frame her, not to mention that she may not be sure that the prince will touch the piano in advance, and if the prince has something to do, it will not be good for her.

So, is Ji Ke lying, acting to deceive her sympathy?If that's the case, then she's acting too realistically.

After thinking for a long time, Ke Yi didn't come up with a reason.

An An saw that Keyi was frowning, as if he couldn't figure it out, so he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him.

"Princess, don't even think about it, this master is already dead, even if you want to investigate, you can't find anything. You, you should drink this porridge and take care of yourself."

At first, I thought that the prince would be able to wake up with the bowl of blood from the concubine yesterday, but later I heard the concubine said that it would take 20 days, and she was scared to death on the spot.

"I don't understand why you have to bear all the hardships alone, while the other concubines of the prince are still happy and carefree every day. From time to time, they run to Concubine Xue for a while, but you have to bleed a bowl of blood here every day." , servant girl... I am really afraid that you will not be able to hold on."

As she said that, An An's eye sockets gradually turned red, and there was a suffocation in her heart, with nowhere to vent.

Ke Yi supported An An's shoulders, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Don't worry, don't be sad, I'm fine, look, didn't Director Ding order them to cook a lot of supplements for me?"

An An mumbled her mouth, and whispered seemingly dissatisfied: "What's the use of more supplements, the princess's blood has not been donated, if it wasn't for saving the prince, I don't think they would be so kind, I hate it."

Suddenly, An An seemed to have thought of something, raised her head suddenly, and said: "By the way, princess, I heard that eating more red dates can replenish blood. You wait, my servant will cook it for you."

After finishing speaking, Ke Yi ran out in a hurry, but Ke Yi was stunned for a moment, put down her hand that was still in mid-air, and looked at An An's back with a smile.
