Early on the next morning, Gu Qingtang was asked to leave by the guards of Tingwei Mansion. It was said that Li Kun discovered new clues about the case. This was expected. Gu Qingtang knew that she had to finish this scene no matter what, but it was a pity that the good night was short with her beloved wife in her arms.
Yin Ning changed Gu Qingtang's wound medicine with her own hands, watched her walk out of the bedroom, and then called out: "Xiao Xi, wait for me to change my clothes."
"Yes." Xiao Xi nodded and walked in with a blushing face.
When I saw the little princess in the bronze mirror, I felt that the little princess’s face was filled with a smile like a spring breeze. How was it different from usual?
Yin Ning felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Xiao Xi, "Xiao Xi, why are you always looking at me?"
Xiao Xi quickly lowered her head and said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just think that the princess today is more beautiful than before, so I couldn't help but look at her a few more times."
Yin Ning turned around with a smile and said, "You little girl, when have you ever been able to speak with honey?"
"My slave has said too much. I will comb the princess's hair right now." After Xiao Xi said apologetically, she picked up the wooden comb in front of the bronze mirror and prepared to comb Yin Ning's hair.
The black hair is a little more messy and tangled than in the past.
The scenes she saw last night reappeared in Xiao Xi's mind, and she couldn't help but blush, and lowered her head again and again in a panic.
"I seem to have forgotten to tell the consort to have breakfast. You go and ask the cook to bring it to the consort first." Yin Ning suddenly thought of this and couldn't help but curling up the corner of his mouth, "The case is the case, and the body is so hungry. It’s not good.”
"Yes." Xiao Xi was sure of the change in the little princess this time. From the time she first got up to now, she was probably filled with thoughts of the Prince Consort.
Xiao Xi smiled secretly, lowered her head and walked to the entrance of the dormitory, where she saw Xiao Wu already waiting in the courtyard with breakfast.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
"The consort ordered the cook to bring breakfast."
"Can the Prince Consort eat it?"
"I saw the prince-in-law happily took two buns and left. He must have eaten them."
"Two buns?"
Xiao Xi's cheeks burned even more intensely. She took the breakfast from Xiao Wu and said, "Go and do your work. I'll deliver it to the princess."
"Yeah."
Xiao Xi walked a few steps and found Xiao Wu still standing there. She turned back and glared at him, "Why don't you leave?"
"Just go, just go, hehe." Xiao Wu scratched his head, turned around and ran away.
Xiao Xi laughed dumbly, shook her head, carried the breakfast back to the bedroom, and put the breakfast on the table, "Back to the princess, the prince-in-law asked the cook to bring the breakfast."
"This nuisance is one step ahead of me again." Yin Ning muttered, stood up and walked to the table, glanced at the breakfast, and couldn't help but reach out to lift the small steamer.
Sure enough, there are again small buns shaped like spring peaches, but there are two missing.
"This steamed bun seems to be missing..." Yin Ning murmured to himself.
Xiao Xi coughed lightly and replied with a blushing face: "Xiao Wu said that the prince-in-law took two when he left..."
"This bastard...how much do you need to eat?" This time it was Yin Ning who blushed. She muttered in a low voice and glanced at Xiao Xi shyly, for fear that she would hear the deeper meaning of her words. He quickly sent her to clean up the rest, "Xiao Xi, go and pack up the yarn that the consort changed. I will have breakfast first."
"Yes." Xiao Xi nodded and walked straight to the bed. After bending down to pick up the used gauze on the ground, she couldn't help but glance at the bed - the brocade quilt was messy and the half-covered gauze was in disarray. Half-covered, there seemed to be some blood on the sheets.
Xiao Xi quickly looked away and looked down at the medicine gauze in her hand. It seemed to be faintly bloody. She couldn't help but secretly said in her heart: "This prince-in-law is really anxious. He is still injured. He bullies the princess like this. This bed sheet If someone had seen it, they would have thought that the prince-in-law bullied the princess so rudely that she was bleeding..."
Yin Ning heard Xiao Xi's rustling sound and suddenly realized something, and said quickly: "Xiao Xi, after packing up the yarn, help me throw away the sheets."
"Yes."
"I accidentally pulled the nasty guy's wound last night, so there was some blood on the sheets. If the women outside saw it, they would be talking nonsense again." Yin Ning explained guiltily.
Xiao Xi snickered and nodded, "I understand."
Yin Ning always felt that there seemed to be some deep meaning in Xiao Xi's words, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she could only deliberately darken her face and say, "Hurry up and clean up."
"Yes."
Not long after, Xiao Xi finished cleaning up and walked out with the rolled sheets in her arms, "Your Highness, this servant is going to throw away the sheets first."
"Well, throw it as far away as possible." Yin Ning ordered again.
Xiao Xi nodded and smiled, "Yes."
"Aning!"
As soon as Xiao Xi walked out of the dormitory, she almost bumped into the eldest princess Yin Ying who walked into the dormitory in a hurry.
"Meet the eldest princess!" Xiao Xi hurriedly saluted.
Yin Ying waved his hand repeatedly and said: "Everyone, step back!"
"Yes."
Yin Ning watched the imperial sister enter the palace in bewilderment, and closed the door tightly in panic, "Sister Huang, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm having my menstrual period today...today!"
"What?"
What Yin Ying meant was that she was not pregnant!
For such a big thing, the imperial doctor diagnosed the wrong pulse, which is a serious matter that will cause your head to fall off! Moreover, if the imperial sister was not pregnant, the Taiwei would have made an attack on her at any time to bury her.
Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Yin Ning cautiously stood up and leaned against the door of the palace. After carefully listening to the sounds outside and confirming that no one was there, she turned around and held Yin Ying's hand, "What on earth is going on?"
Yin Ying shook her head blankly, "I don't know what happened. On the day Nian Huai'an had an accident, His Majesty suddenly sent Bafen to take me back to the palace. The imperial doctor checked my pulse and didn't look back. I went to the main hall and was told that I was pregnant."
"I originally thought that marrying an unlucky man in this life would be a tragedy. This child is the greatest blessing God has given me, but why, why do I still have menstruation?" Yin Ying said sadly, with circles under her eyes. Gradually she turned red, "Aning, I have an ominous feeling. Something big is going to happen in the capital!"
"Sister Huang, please don't be anxious. This matter..." Yin Ning thought for a moment, "You and I have to hide this matter first. When Qingtang comes back later, we will discuss it together in the long term."
After speaking, Yin Ning couldn't help but ask again, "Sister Huang, do your personal maids know about this?"
"They probably don't know, but Wan Niang knows." Yin Yinghou took a breath in fear, "She came to see me early in the morning, and suddenly she seemed to smell some blood, so she turned away from the maid and pointed at me I suddenly realized that I was menstruating."
"Wan Niang is from the Nian family after all. No, I have to beg her to hide this matter." Yin Ning patted Yin Ying's hand to calm her panic, "Sister Huang, don't panic. "Yin Ning turned sideways and looked at the dark skirt that Yin Ying had changed into, "I have a new menstrual bag in the closet here. Sister, please put it on first, and I will go find Wan Niang to stop this matter."
"Yeah."
"I believe that with Qingtang here, the Prince Consort's Mansion will be a safe place. Sister Huang, you can rest here with peace of mind." After Yin Ning finished speaking, he opened the palace door and faced the maid in the courtyard. He said, "You go and invite Miss Nian."
"Yes."
But what Yin Ning and Yin Ying waited for was what they feared most - Nian Wanniang had left the house!
"Aning, this...what should we do?!"
Looking at the panicked imperial sister, Yin Ning's heart was also very confused, "This matter must be told to Qingtang as soon as possible."
"But isn't he investigating the case? If the case is not solved in three days, I'm afraid his head will be hanging."
"She told me last night that she already knew who the real culprit was. If word got out that you are not pregnant, Sister Huang, I am afraid that Brother Huang would not be able to save your life." Yin Ning thought for a moment and walked to the palace immediately. At the door, he raised his voice and said to the maid in the courtyard, "I sent Xiao Wu to find the consort, saying that I suddenly fell ill and was very serious."
"Yes!"
At this time in Tingwei Mansion, Li Kun happily raised his hand and ordered people to bring all the witnesses and material evidence to the court.
Gu Qingtang stood in the hall and watched the witness slowly walk into the lobby of Tingwei Mansion. He always felt that this lady looked very familiar.
"Although this matter has become broad daylight, it is not appropriate for me to conclude the case." Li Kun's words had already made it too obvious, "This lady is the wife of General Zuo, the commander of Taiwei Nian."
No wonder she looks familiar, she turns out to be the beloved wife of General Zuo Meng Yu, wait a minute! How could the beloved wife of General Zuo Meng Yu be related to this case?
"Master Nian and Mrs. Meng met many years ago, so their personal relationship continues to this day."
When he heard Li Kun's words, Gu Qingtang suddenly realized that what Yin Changan said about taking advantage of the opportunity to reduce power was to dismount Mengyu, and directly cut off one of Taiwei Nian's left arms and took Mengyu's seat away. 50,000 men and horses.
Gu Qingtang looked at Mrs. Meng up and down. This person's life was really moving. She thought about it again. It seemed like three years ago that Meng Yu married this person.
Three years ago again...
Gu Qingtang suddenly felt that the game set by Yin Changan was too big and too broad. Three years ago, not only did he send her chess piece to Captain Nian, but he also sent Mrs. Meng's chess piece silently. He was buried in the home of Taiwei Nian, his most capable general.
Nian Huai'an's death was not an accident at all, but a sign of a storm to come.
As long as Nian Huaian has an affair with Mrs. Meng, it is natural for Meng Yu to kill someone. After all, only acquaintances can make Nian Huaian let down his guard and make it easier to kill.
This can be regarded as an explanation. There are clearly two family generals following him, but two people are missing. The only one who died was Nian Huai'an.
"These are the letters between Mrs. Meng and Mr. Nian over the years." Li Kun handed the so-called physical evidence to Gu Qingtang, as if throwing a hot potato to Gu Qingtang, "I can really only rely on Mr. Gu for the rest. House."
Needless to say, the contents of these letters must have been written by this woman who had deliberately tried to induce Nian Huai'an to write them over the past few years.
Such a watertight game is indeed brilliant.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. This time, Gu Qingtang finally understood the meaning of this sentence.
"Prince-in-law!" Suddenly, Xiao Wu's voice rang outside the hall.
Gu Qingtang was slightly startled, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Wu ran in panting, "Prince-in-law, it's not good, the princess suddenly fell ill."
"Obviously..." Gu Qingtang stopped suddenly in the middle of his words. The little princess suddenly fell ill. There was definitely a reason for it, and it just gave her a reason to leave Tingwei Mansion temporarily, "Master Li, these people Leave the evidence here for now and I will pick it up later."
"Okay."
"So, I'll take my leave now."
"The princess suddenly fell ill and she really should go back and take a look."
"Farewell."
