Chapter 514 Pool of Blood
After drinking half a cup of tea, Wei Mingzhu went to wash her hands and asked Chen Wan, "Would you like to come with me?"
Shen Wan shook his head, “I don’t need it.”
Qin Nian'er, Wei Mingzhu and Zhao Ru left the pavilion together.
Chen Wan sat in the pavilion. A gust of wind blew, and peach blossoms fell like rain, which was beautiful beyond words.
Chen Wan also wanted to plant a peach orchard.
She remembered that there was a farm given to her by the Yun family on the outskirts of the city. It was very big and empty anyway. She could have peach trees planted there. After three to five years, when the peach trees grew up, she could build a bamboo house there and live there for a few days every year when the peach blossoms were in full bloom. Just thinking about it made her feel very comfortable.
Princess Shunyang really knows how to enjoy life as Queen Song said.
After finishing a cup of tea, Shen Wan prepared to walk around. Qin Nian'er came over and Shen Wan asked, "Why are you the only one here? Where's Mingzhu?"
Qin Nian'er asked, "Did she go to change clothes?"
Chen Wan didn't think much about it, thinking that Wei Mingzhu was feeling unwell and needed to change clothes. But Qin Nian'er said, "Princess Shouzhen and Madam Wen were playing around, and Mingzhu accidentally bumped into the peach tree and sat down, staining her skirt..."
Qin Nian'er emphasized the word "accidentally".
It was not an accident at all, it was clearly done on purpose by Princess Shouzhen and Song Nanyue. They couldn't defeat Chen Wan, so they took it out on these people and used some unspeakable means. Qin Nian'er really despised them.
Originally, Qin Nian'er was going to accompany Wei Mingzhu to change her dress. Wei Mingzhu was worried about Shen Wan staying alone in the pavilion. Although there was a maid by her side, she was still worried and asked Qin Nian'er to accompany her.
Zhao Ru accompanied Wei Mingzhu to change clothes, and Qin Nian'er came back.
Wei Mingzhu was worried about Chen Wan, and Chen Wan was also worried about her. She was afraid that Princess Shouzhen and Song Nanyue would do more than just push her to the ground. When these people became ruthless, God knew how cruel they could be.
Shen Wan asked, "Where do they change clothes?"
Qin Nian'er raised her hand and pointed, "It's over there..."
"Don't clash with Queen Song..."
Shen Wan immediately raised his foot and walked over there, and Qin Nian'er hurriedly followed.
Coral followed, and two maids also followed.
After passing through the peach forest, they could see a wooden house hidden in the forest from afar. However, when they got there, they saw Wei Mingzhu and Zhao Ru coming out and walking to the other side.
"Pearl."
Shen Wan shouted.
Wei Mingzhu stopped and Shen Wan noticed that the back of her skirt was a little dirty, but it was not noticeable without careful observation.
Shen Wan asked, "Aren't you going to change clothes? What are you doing over there?"
Wei Mingzhu said, "I thought I heard someone shouting for help just now, but Zhao Ru said she didn't hear it. I was worried, so I went to check..."
Shen Wan looked at Zhao Ru, and Zhao Ru said, "I was admiring the paintings hanging in the hut and didn't pay attention."
Qin Nian'er asked, "Why would someone shout for help?"
Wei Mingzhu said, "I really heard it..."
Shen Wan said, “Let’s go and have a look.”
With so many of them here and Chen An guarding in the dark, there won't be any problem.
Several people walked towards that direction. The peach forest at Princess Shunyang's mansion was really big. Wei Mingzhu only heard a cry for help, vaguely coming from this direction. After walking for a long time, she didn't see anything. She wondered if she was hallucinating.
Wei Mingzhu said, "Maybe I heard it wrong. Not many people are coming here. Why don't we..."
"Princess, there's someone lying on the ground over there!"
Before Wei Mingzhu could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shanhu's anxious voice.
Shen Wan turned his head and saw Shanhu standing on a big rock. He could see far because of his high position.
Shanhu jumped down from the rock. Wei Mingzhu went up and said, "There really is someone lying on the ground..."
Wei Mingzhu pointed in the direction, and Shen Wan and the others hurried over.
After walking fifty or sixty steps, I saw someone. They were dressed in an elegant palace dress and looked very familiar. They seemed to be...
"Princess Qiyang!"
Wei Mingzhu exclaimed in surprise.
The two maids following behind reluctantly followed behind, thinking that Chen Wan and Wei Mingzhu were too idle. They were clearly here to enjoy the peach blossoms, not to cause trouble as the county lady worried.
Just as they were wondering in their hearts, they suddenly heard Wei Mingzhu calling Princess Qi Yang. The two maids were startled and walked forward quickly, only to see Princess Qi Yang lying in a pool of blood.
The moment they saw Princess Qi Yang, the two maids turned pale and ran over quickly.
Shen Wan, Qin Nian'er and the others were also frightened. Wei Mingzhu's face turned pale, "Help!"
Shanhu and several maids helped shout.
The two maids squatted down and stretched out their hands to feel Princess Qi Yang's breath. They were so scared that they sat down on the ground, "Dead, dead..."
Several maids shouted at the top of their lungs, and people nearby heard the noise and came over.
Seeing that the one in trouble was Princess Qi Yang, everyone's face turned pale.
Princess Shunyang, who came after hearing the news, felt her knees go weak when she saw this. If her maid had not supported her in time, Princess Shunyang would have fallen to the ground.
Princess Shunyang hurriedly said, "Imperial Physician! Quickly call the Imperial Physician!"
Regardless of whether Princess Qi Yang can be saved or not, we must do our best to save her.
Princess Shunyang looked at Chen Wan and the others, "Why is Princess Qiyang here? What are you doing here?!"
Her voice was trembling.
Princess Qi Yang was the empress dowager's daughter. Even if she wasn't, she could not escape blame for the fact that a princess came to appreciate the peach blossoms but died in Princess Shun Yang's mansion.
Shen Wan was glad that she didn't come alone. She was with Wei Mingzhu, Qin Nian'er and the others, and the maid sent by the Yaoguang County Master followed her.
Otherwise, someone would definitely suspect that she killed Princess Qi Yang.
Shen Wan didn't say anything. Wei Mingzhu said, "I was in the wooden house over there, getting ready to change clothes. I heard someone shouting for help, so we came here..."
Princess Shunyang didn't dare to think about what would happen if the Queen Mother knew...
"Where is the Yaoguang County Master?"
"She is with Princess Qiyang. Where is she?"
Suddenly someone thought of Lady Yaoguang.
Princess Shunyang's heart trembled violently.
Princess Qi Yang has already gotten into trouble, so Princess Yao Guang must not make any more mistakes.
Princess Shunyang prayed in her heart when the maidservant screamed and ran over, "Blood, there's a huge pool of blood over there..."
Princess Shunyang hurried over, and Shen Wan also went to take a look.
From a distance, I saw a pool of blood on the ground, but no one was there.
This blood does not belong to Princess Qi Yang.
Zhao Ru's eyes were sharp. "There's an earring in the blood..."
The maid quickly picked up the ruby earring."
The maid sent by Yaoguang County Master to follow Chen Wan was so disappointed that she said in a trembling voice, "This, this is my County Master's earring..."
Something must have happened to Lady Yaoguang as well.
But where did she go?
With so much blood lost, I'm afraid it's very dangerous.
A group of young men from aristocratic families came over here. As soon as they reached the entrance of the peach forest, they learned the news that Princess Qi Yang had been murdered. They were all shocked beyond words.
Even Xie Jingyu was shocked.
Those young men from aristocratic families quickened their pace and came over. As Xie Jingyu walked up the stairs, a sharp whistle was heard.
Xie Jingyu stopped, and Chen Ping walked over quickly and whispered something in Xie Jingyu's ear.
Xie Jingyu stepped forward. Young Master Zhao was talking to Prince Yuzhang over there. Suddenly, his shoulder was grabbed, which scared him.
Young Master Zhao turned around.
Xie Jingyu said, "Follow me."
