Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 749
Shen Cheng said: "The case is full of doubts. It is even more difficult than the ones we have encountered before. I can't think of any clues for a while. It is better to go back to the house and have dinner. Only when you are full will you have the strength to continue investigating the case."

Looking at the bright sky outside, Rong Jiu said with a smile, "Go into the palace to see the good show."

Empress Dowager Xiao would get up at midnight every day, and Nanny Zhang pushed open the hall door, and saw a row of wet footprints on the ground, from the hall door all the way to the bed.

She frowned, lifted the curtain and looked, she was frightened out of her wits, and passed out screaming.

Outside the hall, a maid heard the screams, hurried in to have a look, and also screamed in fright.

In the sleeping hall, horrified screams came and went, Empress Dowager Xiao was woken up, and angrily reprimanded: "It's so early in the morning, yelling, what's the point?"

The maid was trembling, her whole body was shaking like chaff, even her teeth were chattering, and she said in a timid voice: "Madam, it's haunted!"

Empress Dowager Xiao's face darkened, and she asked sharply, "The sky is bright and the sun is shining, where did the ghost come from?"

The maid's face was pale, and a smell of urine came from her body. Because she was too frightened, her voice trembled and her tone was out of tune: "It's right next to you."

Empress Dowager Xiao looked down, only to find that the entire bed was soaked with water, her body was also wet, and then she saw the heads of Hongrui and Concubine Jia, lying on the left and right beside her.

"what"

Empress Dowager Xiao rolled her eyes and fainted from fright.

"Queen, Queen,"

"Quickly pass on to the imperial physician!"

"Go and report to His Majesty."

Shoukang Palace panicked, and Eunuch Kang strangled Nanny Zhang to death. Nanny Zhang woke up and saw Hongrui's dead face, and was so frightened that she was about to faint again.

Eunuch Kang said anxiously: "The queen mother is dizzy, quickly change into clean clothes for the queen mother, if the queen mother has something good or bad, be careful of your life and mine."

Grandma Zhang was too frightened to faint again, called two maids, hurriedly helped Empress Xiao behind the screen, changed into clean clothes, and then helped her to the soft couch.

When Emperor Chu came over to take a look, he was also quite frightened, and said angrily, "Go and call Wei Zheng!"

"Yes." Eunuch Zhao quickly asked the little eunuch beside him to summon Wei Zheng.

When Rong Jiu and Shen Cheng entered the palace, they happened to see Wei Zheng hurrying to Shoukang Palace.

"Commander Wei," Rong Jiu called to stop him, "What happened?"

Wei Zheng wept sadly: "Shoukang Palace is haunted by ghosts, Your Majesty Longyan is furious, accidents happen one after another in the palace, I am afraid that I, the commander of the imperial guards, cannot escape the blame."

"Haunted?" Rong Jiu was surprised.

Wei Zheng said the matter again, Rong Jiu said: "Go and have a look first."

As soon as they arrived at Shoukang Palace, Emperor Chu yelled at Wei Zheng, "Wei Zheng, what is wrong with you?"

Hongrui's body and Concubine Jia's head were still lying on the bed. Wei Zheng glanced at it, and quickly withdrew his gaze: "Your Majesty, calm down."

"There are many guards in the palace, but you let the murderer feel like he is in no one's land. The last time the assassin assassinated Xiao Jue in front of me, this time, he carried a dead body and broke into Shoukang silently." Gong, how do you let me calm down? How do you believe that you can protect the palace?"

"The guard is weak, and he is willing to accept the punishment."

"Come here, drag Wei Zheng down, and give him fifty sticks."

"Father," Rong Jiu stopped.

Emperor Chu didn't even look at her, and said coldly, "Drag on!"

Wei Zheng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and he was punished with fifty sticks. It was better to suffer a little flesh and blood than to lose his official position.

Emperor Chu looked furious and punished him, but in fact it was to keep him.

Concubine Shu is now under confinement, and the phoenix seal has already fallen into the hands of the Xiao family. If the Empress Dowager Xiao took advantage of this and waited for an opportunity to make trouble, it would not be as simple as being blamed.

The harem and imperial guards will once again be in the hands of the Xiao family, and everything they have done before will be in vain.
