The Prince Regent’s Violent Medical Consort Chapter 398: The letter of divorce

Chapter three hundred and ninety-eight of the letter of divorce

Ziji didn't know anything and asked, "What's the matter with Mr. Liang?"

Master Liang hesitated for a while, then said with a smile, "That's right, I have something to ask the princess when I'm down."

"Okay, please sit down!" Zian said frankly.

As soon as Mr. Liang sat down, he heard Murong Jie coughed. He hurriedly stood up and said with a smirk: "Xiaguan has been sitting for a long time, and his waist is a little sore, so just stand."

This Jing Zhaoyin is not easy to do, and his position is not clear. Before, he cooperated with the Taifu and Prince to do some things that were not good for the princess. He knew that he was disgusting, and he did not dare to make trouble. This time, he did not want to come in person. , but I was afraid that sending officials here would offend the princess, so I had to come in person.

Horizontal and vertical this gas is fixed.

Zi An glared at Murong Jie, but Murong Jie pretended he couldn't see it, and drank the tea calmly.

"What do you want to ask me, sir?" Zi An asked politely.

Master Liang looked straight, "It's like this, Mrs. Xiao died last night, I wonder if the princess knows about this?"

Zi An said with a surprised expression: "Dead? How can you die?"

"The princess doesn't know?" Master Liang asked.

"Got it."

"Huh?"

Zi An smiled: "The lord just said that she died, so I know."

Master Liang was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, "Oh, yes, according to the servants of the General's Mansion, the princess went to Mrs. Xiao last night. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Zi An admitted: "Yes, I went to her, stayed in her house for about a quarter of an hour, said a few words, and then left."

Master Liang breathed a sigh of relief, he thought Xia Zian would not admit it.

Master Liang continued: "It's like this. We saw a hairpin flower at the crime scene. After identification, this hairpin flower was a royal family thing. After checking the inner palace, we found out that it was the princess who got married. At that time, the reward from the palace wanted to come and ask the princess if she lost it?"

Zian reached out and touched the bun, "Oh, it must have been lost when I went to Han Qingqiu last night."

"Wang Fei is so careless?" Master Liang looked at Zian, "It stands to reason that this hairpin is worn on the head, if there is no pulling, it should not fall off."

"Pull?" Zi An thought for a while, "When I went out, Mrs. Xiao kept me, does that count as a tug?"

Master Liang didn't say anything, just sneered, and after a pause, he said again: "By the way, a letter of divorce was also found at the scene, which was written by General Xiao Xiao, I don't know if the princess has seen this. A letter of leave?"

Zi An said in surprise: "Break out? I haven't seen it before."

She was really surprised. According to Xiaodao, after the woman poisoned Han Qingqiu last night, she only left the hairpins and no divorce papers.

Murong Jie was also attracted, and took the initiative to sit over, "What?"

Master Liang ordered Gao Cao to take out the head and hand it to Murong Jie. Murong Jie took it and opened it. It turned out to be a divorce letter.

"The date is the first year of Hongbao?" Zi An asked in surprise.

"That's right, it was written in the year the emperor ascended the throne. If this letter of divorce is true, then the subordinate officer must submit it to the empress dowager, and the empress dowager will convict General Xiao." Mr. Liang said.

Zi An folded the divorce letter and handed it to Mr. Liang, "You go to the palace immediately, and ask the empress dowager to ask Xiao Xiao to inquire about the crime. This divorce without a reason will result in a heavy punishment."

Murong Jie brought it over again, carefully identified the handwriting, it was indeed Xiao Xiao's, this kid, so he divorced his wife when he got married? Never heard him say it.

"There are still some details for the lower official..."

"You go to the palace, and then I will go to the yamen tomorrow to tell you in person." Zi An said.

When Master Liang heard this, he stood up and said, "Okay, then I will retire first."

"This king will accompany you in!" Murong Jie pulled Zian, "You go too."

Zi An knew what he wanted to do, so he said, "It's okay, it's better to tell the Empress Dowager what happened last night in person."

Master Liang was a little confused about the attitude of the two of them. He originally thought that they would withhold this letter of divorce. After all, it was related to Xiao Xiao's face. If the world knew that Xiao Xiao divorced his wife when he got married, one would be convicted. , and the second reputation is not good. I didn't expect that they would take the initiative to let him enter the palace to find the queen mother, but the matter of the case was not taken seriously.

Since the last time, Mr. Liang has not dared to interfere too much. He just wants to be his Jing Zhaoyin well. He was almost dismissed from office last time.

The three entered the palace. The Empress Dowager read the divorce letter handed over by Mr. Liang, looked at it, and asked Murong Jie, "Are you sure it was written by Xiao Xiao?"

"It's Xiao Xiao's handwriting." Murong Jie said.

"November 26, isn't it the day he got married?" the Queen Mother asked.

"Should be."

The Empress Dowager sighed slightly, "Master Liang, you go out first, and the Aijia have a few words with the prince."

"Yes!" Mr. Liang went out in response. He had been in the officialdom for a long time. He knew that the more he knew about some things, the more dangerous he would be, so he didn't want to know.

After Mr. Liang went out, the queen mother said: "The divorce letter was given on the day of the marriage. This is his protest to the emperor. However, this letter of divorce only divorces his wife as Xiao Xiao, and also promises Han Qingqiu. You can continue to live in the Hou Mansion. Han Qingqiu is determined not to make this letter of divorce public. She has to be her beautiful wife. Therefore, no one knows about his divorce, but in his heart, he clearly knows that he has no wife. ."

"Will the mother make this letter of divorce public?" Zi An asked.

The Empress Dowager hesitated, "It's not impossible to make it public, but the Lord Hou should admit this letter of divorce, but once the Hou House admits it, then Xiao Xiao will be offended."

The crime of resisting the decree is not trivial.

"Empress mother, merits and demerits are equal to each other. Xiao Xiao has done meritorious deeds stationed at the border all these years, and his guilt can be appropriately mitigated." Murong Jie reminded.

"It makes sense to say this, but now that his life and death are uncertain, ask him to be blamed. What kind of crime should I ask?" The Empress Dowager was worried.

"We'll discuss this later, but Erchen suggested that this letter of divorce be made public." Murong Jie said.

"A Jie, the Hou family may not be willing, because once this letter of divorce is made public, it means that the Xiao family has a charge of disobeying the decree. The emperor is still there, so why would the Xiao family be afraid of it? ."

Zi'an thought for a while, "What if it was because Han Qingqiu was suspected of murder?"

"Suspected of murder?" The Empress Dowager was startled, "What do you mean?"

Zi An said: "Han Qingqiu once killed Yao Zhi, the maid next to the princess. If it is said, Xiao Xiao gave her a divorce because she suspected that she had murdered Yao Zhi and committed murder."

"However, if he suspects that Han Qingqiu killed Yao Zhi, why didn't he report it to the government? If this is the case, Xiao Xiao still has the crime of covering up." The Empress Dowager said.

Zi An said: "That's why I say it's a suspicion, a suspicion, but not confirmed, because there has been no evidence, although it is a bit reckless to divorce my wife because of suspicion, but, when it comes to the truth, it is understandable that the guilt can be lighter, and more The Hou Mansion will not be implicated."

The Empress Dowager nodded, "Well, that's a good idea, it depends on what the Marquis has to say."
