Chapter 884

Hua Qian opened her eyes wide and stared at Wuli in disbelief, "You said Mrs. Chen is dead, but what about Mrs. Chen and Cui Jin'er?"

"I don't know, this is a letter from Dong Lai who is next to Young Master Li, and that's all it says." Wu Li handed the note he just received to Hua Qian.

Looking at the content above, Hua Qian'e frowned.

It was fine yesterday, but now the person is dead, which is strange.

Yue Xia patted Hua Qian's cheek lightly, and said softly: "Xian'er, I'll go and have a look, you wait in the palace, I'll tell you the details when I come back."

"Then Ayue, go quickly." Brother Mancai should have rushed over by now.

It was his grandmother who died, and he probably didn't deal with it calmly. With A Yue following him, things should go smoothly.

As soon as Yue Xia rushed to the city gate, he bumped into Li Yan who was about to leave the city.

"Ayan, why are you still here?" Yue Xia Ning asked with an eyebrow.

Li Yan's head was covered with sweat, and when he saw Yue Xia, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "The policeman who came to deliver the letter, when he told Mancai, grandpa happened to be beside him, and he fainted from fright.

Mancai was worried about the situation of his mother-in-law, so he had already rushed over. I stayed and took care of my grandfather. When he woke up, he was worried and asked me to follow him. "

"In that case, let's go there quickly." Yue Xia said, and rode out of the city gate.

Li Yan immediately followed, followed by a pair of Habayashi guards, the movement was not small.

An hour later, Yue Xia, Li Yan and others finally arrived at the nearest town near the capital.

Because of its proximity to the capital, the town was named Linjing Town.

At this time, outside the largest inn in Linjing Town, the arresters had already been guarded tightly.

When Yue Xia and Li Yan approached, one of them immediately stepped forward and said, "A murder has occurred in this inn, please stay in another inn."

Habayashi Wei, who followed, immediately took out his waist card, and when the arrester saw him, he immediately knelt on the ground, "The little one has seen the adults."

Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Yue Xia walked straight into the inn without saying a word.

The homicide took place in the guest room on the second floor.

At this time, Hua Mancai was coming out from the inside, and beside him was Gu Manrong who had just returned from inspecting the Dragon and Tiger Camp with Prince Xiao.

The two saw Yue Xia and Li Yan downstairs at a glance.

"Your Highness, why are you here?" Hua Mancai asked in surprise.

"The princess is worried about you, so I came here, how, have you found the murderer?" Yue Xia asked coldly.

Knowing that Hua Qian was worried about him, Hua Man wanted to show a smile, but couldn't, and sighed deeply, "The murderer is currently determined to be Cui Jin'er, but she ran away, and the county magistrate is taking People went to arrest."

After hearing this, Yue Xia seemed to have guessed why Cui Jin'er wanted to kill Chen Shi, and said: "Auntie, is she okay?"

"Mum, she has been stabbed several times and has been sent to the hospital. I don't know if she will wake up." Speaking of Xiao Chen, Hua Mancai was filled with helplessness and heartache.

If she and her grandmother Chen were not so snobbish and insisted on marrying a daughter of a high family, how could such a thing happen.

In the final analysis, it was their greed and dissatisfaction that harmed themselves.

It's just that grandpa suffered a lot and had to bear the pain of losing his wife.

"Where's the servant who followed them on the road, is he dead?" That person insulted Cui Jin'er, and he thought his death would be even worse.

However, Yue Xia was completely wrong.

"He didn't die, he fled with Cui Jin'er. During the autopsy, he said that the knife wounds on Grandma and Mother's bodies were calculated based on the depth of the penetration, and they were done by men."

Hua Mancai sat weakly on the steps of the stairs, her eyes were red and swollen, presumably she had cried.

Gu Manrong was not much better, with scarlet eyes, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Although he has only been in Hua's family for a few years, Chen's grandmother treated him really well.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry you've been troubled. Brother Weichen will investigate this matter. You should go back to the palace and take care of the Crown Princess so that she won't worry about it." Hua Mancai said with a wry smile.

Yue Xia thought about it, and felt that even if he was here, he might not be able to help, so he said: "Well, I will go back to the palace first, and Habayashi Wei will leave it for you."

There were no more than 13 Habayashi guards who came with them, no more, no less.

"Your Highness, you can keep the three of them, and you can take the rest back." Hua Mancai didn't want to keep so many Habayashi guards, food and lodging was just a problem.

What's more, as Yue Xia is the crown prince, his safety is more important.

Although he has excellent martial arts skills, he may not be safe all the way back to Beijing.

"Okay." Yue Xia didn't refute, and left with ten Habayashi guards, Li Yan stayed behind.

Seeing this, Hua Mancai immediately said: "Brother-in-law, you go back with the crown prince, grandpa still needs someone to take care of him."

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, looked at Gu Manrong, and said, "It's better for Man Rong to go back. He must be very tired after visiting the Dragon and Tiger Camp with Xiao Shizi. Let him go back to take care of Grandpa and take a good rest along the way."

Only then did Hua Mancai take a closer look at Gu Manrong, and found that he was much darker and thinner than before. It seems that he must have suffered a lot in the military camp during this period.

"Brother Manrong, then you go back with the prince." Hua Mancai said.

Gu Manrong hadn't seen the village head for a while, and he really wanted to go back to see him now, so he rode away on Li Yan's horse without delay.

at the same time.

Hua Qian, who was in the East Palace, suddenly felt a pain in her stomach not long after Yue Xia left.

"This is... going to give birth..." Hua Qian clutched her stomach, sat on the bed, and said to Wuli who was outside the door: "Wuli, I'm going to give birth, hurry and find Mrs. Wen."

In the East Palace, Wen Po has already been prepared, so Hua Qian is not worried.

Moreover, this is her second child, which is easier than the first child.

At this time, Wuli ran out to call the lady Wen who lived in the East Palace, and ordered the other maids to prepare hot water, scissors, clean cloth, and egg brown sugar water to replenish energy.

Hua Qian waited for the labor pain to pass, then got up and walked around so that she could give birth later.

But the three steady women who came in a hurry saw this, and immediately carried her to lie down on the bed, "Crown Princess, you'd better lie on the bed now and don't move around."

Hua Qian was stunned, and then said dissatisfiedly: "I'm not about to give birth yet, let's walk around first, ouch..."

At this time, the labor pain came again, Hua Qian broke into a cold sweat from the pain, the pain was even worse than when Nian'er was born.

The two stable women pressed Hua Qian's arms to prevent her from moving, but the third stable woman suddenly squeezed Hua Qian's stomach with her hand.

Seeing this, Hua Qian turned pale with fright, "You...what are you going to do? Wuli...uh..."

Hua Qian sensed that the situation was not good, and was about to call for help, but a woman with a dark complexion covered her mouth.

Because Hua Qian was going to have a baby, the shadow guards who were secretly protecting her retreated outside the bedroom, and didn't think much about it when they heard a little movement. After all, it is impossible to have a baby without making any noise.
