Chapter 109 Heartbroken
The murderer was finally found.
She was just a little girl with no relatives or friends, and no one knew why she wanted to do such a cruel thing to Concubine Ying.
I wanted to follow the clues and find the person behind her.
But it turned out that the little girl died very cleanly, without giving any chance to the investigators.
So in the end, the body was simply torn into pieces.
In the Yuan Dynasty, it was said that people who died like this would not have a good end in hell.
But for the people who cherish this child, this is far from enough.
Furthermore, the person is already dead, so any criminal law is of no consequence.
"Help me change my clothes." Yun Ju'an pointed to the plain dress and removed the complicated hairpin on her head, leaving only a pure jade hairpin.
Today she is going to pay a visit to Concubine Ying Guifei, so it is not appropriate for her to wear colorful clothes.
After the worship, she was about to leave the palace.
Changchun Palace was really quiet. The child had not yet come into the world and had not yet been named. Emperor Yuan was afraid that Concubine Ying Gui would be sad, so he did not give the child a ranking.
Just say that he died young, and let the historian make a note of it.
The entire Changchun Palace was filled with the smell of medicine, thick mugwort mixed with other bitter smells.
The smell of blood and medicine made Yun Zhuan's heart tremble.
Hongzhi just came out to pour out the medicine residue, and saw Yunzhu standing there with a sad look in his eyes. He was reluctant to kick it in, and felt a little uncomfortable.
Princess Yuling was a good person and young, so she could understand the feeling of losing a child.
Otherwise it wouldn't be like this, with everything clean and pure, just standing in this courtyard.
"Are you here to visit the Imperial Concubine?" Hongzhi's eyes were still slightly red. "Why don't you go in with me? I don't need to tell anyone. The Imperial Concubine is inside and is awake now."
Yun Zhuan hesitated and said tentatively: "Will Queen Ying be unhappy if she sees me? If not..."
Hongzhi shook her head: "The Queen likes you, I can see it, it doesn't matter!"
Only then did Yun Zhuan follow Hongzhi in.
For some unknown reason, the hall no longer looked as prosperous as before. Concubine Ying Gui was leaning on the bed, staring at a certain place foolishly with a pale face. When she heard the sound of Yun Zhuan coming in, her eyes moved slightly and she turned to look at Yun Zhuan.
I have indeed lost weight and am not as happy as before.
Yun Zhuan saluted and said, "I am Yun Zhuan, your servant, and I am honored to meet the Queen Ying."
"Jiaojiao is here..." Concubine Ying Gui seemed to suddenly regain some energy, "I'm sorry you can't see your brother's birth..."
As he spoke, tears fell from his suppressed and bloodshot eyes.
She had been looking forward to the birth of this child, and she was not young anymore, so this was a gift from God.
But...
"It's okay, madam. You will still have children in the future." Yun Zhuan suppressed her trembling, her eyes reddened, "The wound on your back is almost healed, and I will leave the palace today."
Concubine Ying Gui asked Yun Zhuan to come closer, held her hand, and said:
"Jiaojiao, you are so smart, do you know who killed my child?"
His eyes were fixed on Yun Ju'an.
[Yun Zhuan, is it you? Is it you? As long as you say it’s not you, I will believe you.]
[I trust you so much, why did you come to this palace? ]
Yun Zhuan felt as if struck by lightning. It turned out that this was what Concubine Ying Gui thought.
She felt that she had harmed her child.
Yun Zhuan smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, it's not me. I appreciate your care and love, and I will definitely not do such a thing."
Concubine Ying Gui seemed to relax all of a sudden, and then she leaned against the soft pillow on the bed, looking completely different from the crazy person just now:
"Hongzhi, send the princess away."
"I am still in the period of confinement. It's unlucky."
Hongzhi understood that Concubine Ying wanted to see the guest off, and Yun Zhuan looked at Concubine Ying deeply.
Her face was full of fatigue, and Yun Zhuan was a little afraid that Concubine Ying Gui would do anything to avenge her child.
Yun Yu'an bowed deeply and walked out.
His face was expressionless, but there was a look of hostility between his brows, and Yuan Qi saw through him thoroughly.
"Yun Zhuan." Yuan Qi called her.
Lian Yuanqi himself didn't know what he was doing. Perhaps such an expression shouldn't appear on a face as handsome as Yun Zhuan's.
Yun Zhuan tilted his head and smiled feebly: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"What did your mother say to you?" The last time she saw Yun Zhuan in Heyuan Palace, there was still some tenderness on her face, but now it has completely disappeared.
I'm afraid it's not something nice to hear.
Yun Zhuan said calmly, "Nothing to say, Your Highness. I have something else to do at home, so I'll take my leave now. The last verbal clash was not my intention, and I have no intention of standing against Your Highness."
Having said these words, she turned and left.
"Hongzhi?" Yuan Qi called, "What did mother tell her?"
Hongzhi said respectfully: "Concubine Ying asked the princess if she was the one who killed the little prince."
When asking about Yun Zhuan's well-being that day, Yuan Qi was acting like that because of the emotions of the four of them and his lack of rationality.
But the mother is such a gentle person. If she gets fierce, it will surely break Yun Zhuan's heart.
"I understand." Yuan Qi looked at Yun Zhuan's receding back and was silent for a long time before going back in.
When Yun Zhuan came back, he happened to see Sun Fuqiu. Sun Fuqiu had not done anything in the past two days and seemed very honest.
No one knows what evil things she is planning, but she doesn't think Sun Fuqiu has changed her personality.
In the past two days, Yun Ke wanted to follow Yun Rui's superficial idea, move Sun Fuqiu to another courtyard, and then have someone monitor her every move.
"Mr. Bai." Yun Zhuan walked into the garden and saw the servant pushing Bai Ye to bask in the sun. "I'm back."
Bai Ye was still the same as usual: "Does your back still hurt?"
"It's just a minor injury. If it weren't for that injury, I might have been injured in the assassination." Yun Ju'an perked up, "Sir, I saw Lan A."
Bai Ye's expression suddenly turned bad: "How do you know his name?"
This person is very strange. Yun Zhuan is one of the very few people who knows his name and can still survive safely.
"Lan'a is Nanzhao's eternal enemy." Bai Ye's face was heavy. "I don't care what agreement you reach with Lan'a, you must remember that working with Lan'a is like plotting against a tiger."
Yun Zhuan had not seen Bai Ye speak so angrily for a long time. "Let's talk about this later, sir. I have no idea about the murder of the dragon fetus in Concubine Ying's belly."
Bai Ye asked someone to push him back:
"Don't get involved in things that are not your business, and don't think you have great abilities."
"People like this often die the fastest."
