Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 258 The Death of the Princess (3)
Ling Xihan took it over and took a look, only to find that there was only one line written on it.

"Concubine Ping died unjustly, be careful of Concubine Wang." There were two scrawled words written in the corner, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the word 'poison'.Ling Xihan's eyes turned cold, it was indeed poisoning.

Hanyu already had tears in her eyes, "Mother has been talking about the nurse before she died, go find the nurse..."

Ling Xihan's eyes narrowed slightly, "What are you talking about, the nurse is still alive?" Her eyes were astonished, with indescribable shock and joy.I didn't expect that the wet nurse was still alive, how could this not make her excited?
Hanyu nodded, "Mother said, the wet nurse is gone, so I don't care about anything."

Ling Xihan frowned and called out.

"If it rains, if it snows."

Ruoyu Ruoxue immediately opened the door and walked in, not surprised to see Hanyu.

"Miss."

Ling Xihan said in a deep voice, "Is the father back?"

"Hurry up, I should return to the palace in about half an hour." Ruo Yu said.

"Understood, you go out." Ling Xihan turned his head and said to Han Yu: "I will take you to see my father later, don't be afraid when the time comes, you can say whatever your father asks you, understand? ?”

"En" Hanyu nodded vigorously.

Just about to leave, Ling Xihan frowned again.Her original intention was to let Hanyu appear in front of her father, and then use her father's hand to find the nurse to testify against the princess.But if Hanyu is exposed, the nanny will definitely be in danger, and the only witness who knows the cause of her mother's death will also be lost.

Thinking of this, her face darkened.At this time, Fengying turned back again, with joy in his eyes.

"Miss, I found it."

Ling Xihan suddenly raised his eyes, the light in his eyes was clear, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.It's really hard to find a place to go through iron shoes, and it doesn't take much effort to get it.

In Qingxin Pavilion, the princess was kneeling on the futon and chanting scriptures when heavy footsteps came from the door and stopped beside her.She heard it, but did not open her eyes.

After a long while, I heard the woman say solemnly: "Cuihong is dead, but her daughter was rescued by the third sister." Ling Xiqing looked at her mother with a complicated expression, and really didn't know why she could still act like that at this moment. calm.

The princess paused slightly as she turned the prayer beads, and opened her eyes that were as cool as water.The smiling Maitreya Buddha in front of him is reflected in the pupils. At this moment, the kind and wise eyes that seem to be able to see through people's hearts seem to contain a trace of pity and redemption.

The corners of her mouth curled up, and the vicissitudes and loneliness in her eyes suddenly returned to calm as water.

"Mother!" Ling Xiqing couldn't help raising her voice, "Did you hear what I said? Hanyu was rescued by the third sister's people, and she must be in the Yunmeng residence of the third sister now. Is it true that you want to kill someone now? It's possible, the father will be back soon, and the third sister will definitely bring her to the father and let her testify against you." She was a little impatient, although the relationship between the princess and her was not close, but anyway She is also the mother who gave birth to herself.After so many years, she also understood that Princess Ping's death must be related to her mother.

"Why panic? It's time to come, I can't hide."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Xia hurried in with a panicked expression.

"Princess, the prince is back, and the queen is also in the palace. I want you to go there immediately."

Ling Xiqing's face darkened, but the corner of Wang Hao's mouth curled up. This day finally came.She stood up unhurriedly, her brows were as calm as water, her demeanor was elegant and noble, her steps were calm and gentle.Suddenly, Ling Xiqing felt that her mother had become different.In the past, my mother always looked calm and breezy as if she had left the world.But she knew that her mother's heart was very dark.It's just that at this moment, my mother seems to have really left the world, as if she is about to become a fairy and become a fairy.Such a mother made her stunned on the spot for a while, and she even forgot her earlier anxiety and worry.

In the hall, the empress sat in the first seat, her expression was indifferent and peaceful, her phoenix eyes were clear and clear.King Zhongyi sat on the lower left of her, with a solemn and tired face.Several concubines in the mansion, as well as Ling Hong, Ling Xihan and others also sat down one by one, with different expressions.

Not long after, the servant girl came to report that it was the princess who came.

The queen raised her eyebrows, "Let her in." She looked calm, neither happy nor angry.

Ling Xihan glanced at the queen, Fengying and others brought Hanyu to the palace, and the queen followed her father to the palace. I have to say that the queen's news was really fast.

The maid retreated, and the princess walked in calmly. When she saw the queen sitting there, her eyes were a little dazed, and she saluted calmly.

"The minister's wife sees the empress."

The queen groaned, and didn't let her get up, but just looked at her deeply, as if she wanted to see her into the depths of her soul.

I don't know how long it took before the queen said softly: "Huansha, I am not here today as a queen, so I don't want to beat around the bush with you." Drinking tea leisurely. "Tell yourself, how Yunshang died, don't tell me that it has nothing to do with you. Since I'm here today, I won't allow you to fool me anymore." She put down the teacup, her eyes were deep and her tone was flat.

"Anyway, you and I used to be masters and servants. Now I will give you a chance. You should be honest and explain the whole process clearly. You should know my character. Even if you don't tell me, I have a way to let you Open your mouth." Her eyes were sharp as ice, "Remember 'drunk life and dreaming death'." She suddenly pulled Hanyu who had been bowing her head by her side, "You should know who she is, and I won't talk nonsense to you now .” She directly took out the blood book that Ling Xihan had given her before, and played with it in her hand.

"I know that you are secretive. Although Cuihong just noticed that you poisoned Yunshang, she doesn't know how you poisoned her, right?" There was a sneer and sarcasm in the corner of her mouth, "Yunshang She is a native of Jianghu, with high martial arts skills, ordinary people can't poison her at all. Even if she is accidentally captured by you, she will definitely be aware of it. She will never die silently like this."

The princess raised her eyes, with an elegant smile on her lips.

"Your Majesty has always been known as Zhuge, but you don't know that you need evidence for everything."

The queen narrowed her eyes, "Do you feel wronged?" She sneered, "Then, do you still remember her?"

The princess was startled, and followed the queen's gaze.I saw a woman, about fifty years old, walking out of the mirror heart screen carved with red sandalwood inlaid with the word "Shou", wearing a coarse linen dress, with deep wrinkles on her face after years of immersion.

The concubine's face changed, but she saw the old woman kneeling in front of the queen.

"Grassmen see the Empress Empress, Empress Wanan."

According to childhood memory, Ling Xihan can still recognize this person at a glance.Her wet nurse, Mother Cheng.The person who loved her the most when she was young.
