Chapter 343 Murder
"Your Majesty is the ruler of a country. Of course, there are many opportunities to deal with. But now that you are in poor health, don't work too hard. The Ai family has inquired and said that the flood in the south has been brought under control. You should also go to rest. "

"Mother, after I have finished processing these memorials, I will naturally go to rest."

"Oh, you, the queen mother still says she doesn't listen to you?"

The empress dowager became emotional, and sat down beside the emperor, "Okay, if you don't leave, the Ai family will not leave either. The Ai family will be here watching you and seeing when you are willing to rest."

Now, the emperor couldn't laugh or cry, "Mother, I will go to rest in a while."

"Go to sleep for an hour first, it's not too late to deal with it." The empress dowager refused to let go.

The emperor had no choice.

The old lady's temper came up.

He put down the vermilion pen, "Okay, I'll go and rest, and Queen Mother, you can also go and rest together."

"That's fine."

The emperor stood up and smoothed the folds of his clothes.

Outside, the boss came in quickly.

"emperor."

"What's the matter?" The Empress Dowager looked displeased, "If there is no major matter, don't bother the Emperor."

The boss hesitated for a moment, "The Queen Mother, Your Majesty, is Qingrong's side concubine, who was arrested by the Ministry of War."

"what!"

The empress dowager and the emperor looked at each other in disbelief.

"What nonsense are you talking about? People from the Ministry of War dare to arrest the concubine of the Fifteenth Palace." The empress dowager didn't believe it.

The boss said: "Your Majesty, it's true. It was ordered by the Seventeenth Prince. Say, it's because Qingrong's side concubine murdered Princess Yihuan."

"What? Murder!"

This is so surprising.

How is this possible?
Even the emperor never thought that such a thing would happen.

He was stunned for a moment, and after a while, "What the hell is going on? You brought Princess Yihuan to me. You also have Qing Rong, and Shi Qi and the son-in-law. And Fifteen."

The Empress Dowager also didn't leave, "The Ai family is waiting to see here too! Qingrong and Qianyan are good boys, how could there be such a murder, the Ai family must look at it, it must be a misunderstanding."

"I think so too."

The boss has gone to the son-in-law's mansion to pass the decree.

Meng Qianyan just woke up from the son-in-law's mansion.

"Is the father looking for me?"

"That's right, princess, the emperor is looking for you."

"The emperor is looking for me because of my business?"

"That's right, the Minister of the Ministry of War went to the palace to report to the emperor, saying that the seventeenth prince ordered it, that the side concubine Qingrong murdered you, princess, isn't it true?"

Meng Qianyan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "It's true."

The boss was surprised, "Hurry up and go into the palace with this old slave!"

In the Palace of Qinzheng.

Both the emperor and the empress dowager were seated.

Meng Qianyan walked in and fell down on his knees, "My ministers see the emperor, see the emperor's grandmother."

"Get up."

She stood up, and the emperor kept looking at her.

Her face was ugly, she was injured and frightened after all.

"Taohua, are you alright?" the emperor asked worriedly.

Meng Qianyan nodded, "My son is fine, nothing serious."

"Well, wait a moment, I want to investigate this matter thoroughly. Come, give the princess a seat."

Meng Qianyan sat down and waited.

Not long after, Luo Ziyan, Mo Yun, Qingrong and others all arrived one after another.

"The sons and ministers see the father, see the emperor's grandmother."

"Get up, all of you!" said the Empress Dowager.

Several people got up.

Luo Ziyan stood beside Meng Qianyan.

Mo Yun also subconsciously distanced himself from Qing Rong.

On Qingrong's face, shock was still undecided.

"What about fifteen?" The Empress Dowager asked again.

Mo Yun said: "Brother Fifteen, my grandson didn't see it either."

Waited a while longer.

Mo Yan just arrived in a hurry, he knelt on the ground and saluted, while looking around, with a look of astonishment on his face, as if he didn't know anything.

The emperor asked him to stand up too, and then opened his mouth.

"I heard that the Ministry of War arrested Qingrong and said that Qingrong murdered Princess Yihuan. Is this true?"

The emperor asked directly, Meng Qianyan hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "It's true."

Qingrong's body trembled, and she opened her mouth.

The emperor raised his hand, signaling her not to speak yet.Then he asked Meng Qianyan: "How could it be? What kind of enmity is there between you?"

"I don't know if it's enmity or not, but last time, Concubine Yang was pushed by Brother Fifteen, and Brother Fifteen and Qingrong have always hated Erchen, probably because at that time, some things were said by Erchen. That's right, sister-in-law Qingrong, is that the reason?"

Qingrong gritted his teeth, "I, I didn't murder you, you made a false accusation."

"Who murdered me then?" Meng Qianyan asked coldly.

Qingrong's eyes wandered, "How do I know?"

The emperor paused, "Since you said that Qingrong murdered you, why did Qingrong want to kill you?"

"It's a long story."

"Then you say yes!"

"It's like this. Both the father and the emperor's grandmother know that the son's surname is not Mo, but Meng. The son is the adopted daughter of the father and the concubine Yuegui."

The emperor nodded, "That's right."

"Outsiders only think that I married a son-in-law because I became a princess, but my father knows that my son-in-law and my son-in-law have always been husband and wife. The son-in-law's surname is Luo, and everyone in Mingzhou in the south. When the son-in-law is at home, there is an older brother named Luo Ziqing. Luo Ziqing once married a wife named Xu Jiaqiao, who is from the capital. Last spring, Xu Jiaqiao once used our eldest brother to occupy our Luo family's property."

The emperor thought for a while, "I have heard about this matter."

"Yes, later my elder brother figured it out and divorced Xu Jiaqiao. Xu Jiaqiao came back to the capital."

"Then what's the relationship between her and Qing Rong?"

"This is what Erchen wants to say. Xu Jiaqiao has nothing to do with the Luo family, but Xu Jiaqiao was divorced, so life is miserable. My elder brother misses the old relationship, so he still has some contacts with her. Yesterday, Xu Jiaqiao Jia Qiao told Eldest Brother that she is going to marry far away, and before leaving, she must apologize to Er Chen."

Meng Qianyan calmly narrated, "My elder brother helped her ask me out, but when we arrived at the school, we didn't wait for Xu Jiaqiao, but waited for the men in black. These men in black knocked out my elder brother and arrested me. up."

"Oh my God, what happened next?" the Empress Dowager asked, covering her mouth.

"later--"

"Hehe!" Meng Qianyan hadn't finished speaking, Mo Yan sneered, "Sister Yihuan, what you said, a man in black appeared in the capital to arrest you. Is there no law in the capital?"

"I'm telling the truth."

"Where's the evidence?" Mo Yan asked in disbelief.

That attitude was like when Concubine Yang was pushed.

Meng Qianyan asked her the same question.

What a vengeful inkstone.

Luo Ziyan spoke at this time, "Evidence, isn't the princess's injury the evidence? And when I was rescuing the princess, she was tied up in a house. All the people I took with me saw it with their own eyes. "

"What does that mean? Qingrong must have done the princess' injury?" Mo Yan said.
