Concubine Mad Concubine

Chapter 269

Although she and Bingchu had only met each other a few times and were not familiar with each other, Xi Yan felt that the person lying on the ground was undoubtedly Bingchu the first time she saw the corpse.

"When was the body found?"

Standing behind the servant, Xiyan asked the soldier beside him.

"At Yinshi this morning, she was discovered by an old man who was fishing. We reported to the officials. We found the deed of prostitution from Prince Gong's residence in her bag, so we reported the letter to the prince's residence."

"Princess, it's Bingchu, that's right."

The man on the ground tore off the clothes that were tied together, and pointed to the position on Bingchu's chest: "There is a butterfly-shaped birthmark on Bingchu's chest, and this one also has it."

"You are a servant, how do you know that she has a butterfly birthmark? Could it be that you had an affair with her?"

Those who joined in the fun couldn't help laughing out loud when they heard what he said, it was very obscene.

Hearing what they said, the man couldn't help but blush: "Princess, I don't have it. It's Bingchu and Steward Wang. I accidentally saw it from the side."

The voice was very low, but Xi Yan understood it quite clearly, and nodded: "Understood, you go down first."

As long as they behave themselves, don't do anything out of the ordinary, don't lose face of the palace, they can do whatever they like, love between men and women, this is everyone's freedom, not to mention that this is a previous thing, she Even more reluctant to care about.

"How did you die, do you know?"

Xi Yan continued to ask Wu Zuo at the side.

"Except for the sprain on the foot, there were no other wounds, and it wasn't poisoning. When it was discovered, he was completely naked, and there were no traces of rape on his body. He probably died of accidental drowning while bathing."

How can there be so many coincidences in this world? Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, Xiyan is sure that this person's death must have something to do with Xia Yebai. She remembers clearly that night that Hongdou said she would kick him hard. She threw her two feet into the water, and she added that she had to take off her clothes. In this hot summer, taking a cold bath is really comfortable. However, although that woman in Bingchu is annoying, she is a shrewd person. Water, absolutely dare not bathe in such a deep river.

Xi Yan squatted down and stretched her hand across her face. Although she had never had a corpse autopsy, she still had common sense. Her skin was wrinkled after being soaked in water for a long time, but her face was swollen and couldn't see its original appearance. , but it is extremely smooth and delicate, like a newborn baby, Xi Yan propped her hands on the ground, squatting slightly, the sun reflected, and she could faintly see scratches on the pale skin, Xi Yan He took a few steps back, took her hand, and carefully looked at her fingertips. There was a little bit of red on them, which had penetrated into the skin like the water. Before she died, she must have eaten something. Then it was thrown into the water. As for what it was, although she didn't know, it definitely wasn't a good thing.

That person's heart is as ruthless as hers, but he does things even more ruthlessly than her. If she kills someone, she must be killed with a knife. Give it a good time. If she doesn't kill, it's a small punishment. Make life worse than death, or lose face.

"What's the high opinion of the princess?"

Seeing Xiyan fiddling with Bingchu's corpse back and forth, the coward thought she was doubting her own ability, so her tone was very unpleasant.

Xiyan smiled and shook her head: "I just want to make sure if she is the maidservant of my lord, now it seems that she should be Bingchu, that's right, pity such a young maid, she was also shrewd in the past, why not?" You will be drowned while taking a bath, the river is so deep, and there are river grass, if you don’t know how to swim, how can you take risks? Hey.”

Xiyan sighed regretfully, and naturally she would not foolishly tell the real reason for her inspection. Although this ancient times is not a complete murder, it is always troublesome to get involved in such a thing. Although she is angry with Xia Yebai, But my heart still favors him.

"It can be regarded as taking care of my prince. If you determine the cause of death, let me take her back and find a place to bury her. After all, she is a member of our palace, so we can't let her be a lonely ghost."

Hearing what Xi Yan said, that scorpion suddenly felt that he was treating a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, and secretly felt embarrassed: "Since you are a member of the palace, and you have taken care of the prince, naturally you should take it back."

Xiyan nodded, walked to the river, and washed her hands vigorously: "I'm not feeling well, so I'm going back first. If the matter here is over, just ask someone to report to Prince Gong's Mansion, and someone will come naturally. Yamen is amazing."

After Xiyan finished speaking, she turned around and left. Hongdou, who had been standing outside, saw Xiyan coming out, and hurriedly greeted her: "Princess."

Xiyan nodded her head, and said to the servants of the palace behind her, "You all should leave too, and go back to the palace and go about your own affairs."

The servants of the palace nodded, turned around and went back to the palace one after another.

"Princess, why are you walking so fast?"

Xiyan walked like flying, and Hongdou trotted behind to catch up.

Xiyan stopped suddenly, her face was flushed red, Hongdou failed to stop in time, her whole body bumped into Xiyan's body, she took two steps back, the moment she looked up, she saw Xiyan's face was gloomy and frightening, her eyes were like It was as if it was about to freeze, and he couldn't help swallowing: "Princess, are you angry because the prince didn't come?"

Xiyan didn't speak, just snorted, and walked faster than before.

Who said that it was because of this, and it wasn't because of this, if she didn't come, she wouldn't come, what's the big deal, whoever insisted on seeing him.

"It's not that the princess doesn't know. The prince is timid, so he is naturally afraid of seeing the corpse. Besides, before Bingchu, he served her and soaked in the water for more than half a month. Thinking about it like that is scary, the prince How dare you come here? The concubine is not by the prince's side, what if the prince has a nightmare in the middle of the night? The prince is not feeling well during this time, and he is haggard."

Hongdou thought that Xiyan was angry because of Xia Yebai's absence, she was right about this, but the reason was a thousand miles away.

From Xiyan's point of view, Bingchu is just a dispensable servant of the palace. If she doesn't want to come, she doesn't have to come to recognize him in person today. She came here thinking that Xia Yebai was here too, to apologize to him She hated and hated the chance, yes, I'm sorry, but now that she meets that exceptional person, naturally she won't beat him to death like before.

Since their wedding, no matter what happened between the two of them, no matter who was right or who was wrong, she always bowed her head first, but this time, although she was considerate of him in her heart, although she also had feelings for this matter. Wrong, but she has already decided that Xia Yebai must bow her head, why should she apologize to the victim who was blinded in the valley.
