Eighth Ye's Savage Concubine

Chapter 89: The Source of the Plague
Bai Jinchu looked at him and waved his hands: "Where is that female corpse?"

"there!"

Turning around, Jiang Ling pointed forward.

Looking in the direction his fingertips were pointing at, Bai Jinchu and Yuan Hua saw a dead body lying flat on the ground.

Seeing this, Yuan Hua stepped forward quickly, and Lei Yu also pushed Bai Jinchu to follow quickly.

When they came to the corpse, they found that the corpse was so swollen that they could no longer recognize the appearance of the deceased.

"This female corpse was salvaged by the soldiers from the well water. It has been dead for many days. And this village is the place where the plague first appeared."

Looking at the well next to the female corpse, Jiang Ling explained tirelessly.

Hearing his words, Bai Jinchu's expression froze: "Have you found out who the deceased is?"

"It's Huan's concubine's maid."

Hearing this, Yuan Hua was slightly taken aback, and raised her eyes to look at Jiang Ling: "The body has swollen into this appearance, how did you recognize her?"

"The bracelet on her wrist was given to her by Concubine Huan. I saw it with my own eyes when I was interrogating her before." As he spoke, Jiang Ling paused, with a trace of doubt in his eyes: "But it makes me What is puzzling is that her body has already been buried by my people, why is it here now?"

After what he said, Yuan Hua looked down at the left wrist of the female corpse, and found that she was wearing a white jade bracelet on her wrist.

It was just because the body of the female corpse became very swollen, and the jade bracelet had tightly strangled her wrist.

"It seems that it is really her." Looking away from the female corpse, Yuan Hua suddenly raised her head: "General Jiang Ling, I suspect that the maidservant's corpse will appear here, and it may have something to do with the plague. May I first put the Take her body back and let the regent princess take a look."

"This……"

Frowning slightly, Jiang Ling felt a little embarrassed.

The queen was infected with the plague, which made His Majesty pay more attention to this matter.

And he was ordered to investigate the source of the plague, and now he finally got a clue. If Yuan Hua were to be taken away like this, he might not be able to explain it in front of the emperor.

Bai Jinchu caught Jiang Ling's expressions one by one.

Seeing his embarrassment, Bai Jinchu smiled and comforted him: "General Jiang Ling doesn't need to worry about the assignment. I will take care of my father's place."

"If that's the case, then take the corpse away."

"Thank you."

Nodding slightly, Bai Jinchu thanked Jiang Ling.

Jiang Ling turned to look at the two soldiers at the side, and ordered: "You two are responsible for sending the corpse to the prince's other courtyard, so that no one will find out."

"promise!"

……

Under the night sky, a carriage galloped quickly in the suburbs.

Behind the carriage, followed by a wooden cart.

A horse was tied in front of the wooden cart, and two soldiers were driving the horse, while the other was guarding the female corpse lying on the wooden cart.

The female corpse lay flat on the wooden cart, her body was soaked in well water for too long and became very swollen.

The cold moonlight poured down and sprinkled on the body of the female corpse, which looked a little weird and frightening.

Before coming to the other courtyard, the people guarding the door had already gone home to rest.

Two soldiers carried the female body into the woodshed in the other courtyard, then turned and left.

As soon as the two soldiers left the firewood room, Bai Jinchu immediately sent someone to lock the door of the firewood room, lest someone accidentally break in in the middle of the night and be frightened by the appearance of the female corpse.
