Chapter 372: Found the Corpse Part 2 (1/2)



"Let someone follow." Chen Fu sat in the sedan chair, looking at the backs of the two people heading towards the lotus pond, and spoke leisurely with her eyes.

"See what these two are planning to do."

When Xiao Guizi heard this, she bent her knees and bowed to the ground.

He immediately ran in the direction where the two eunuchs disappeared.

Seeing Xiao Guizi's figure disappearing before her eyes, Shen Fu gave the order.

Along the way, Shen Fu couldn't help but feel worried.

After all, the scene I saw was really too creepy.

When Shen Fu thought of the scene she had just seen, she couldn't help but be shocked.

She clearly saw the four people carried on the shoulders of the two young eunuchs.

I just don't know whether this person is alive or dead.

Chen Fu had been thinking about this all the way, and only when she arrived at the Hehuan Palace did she feel relieved.

"My queen, don't worry." Zi Su knew the worry in Shen Fu's heart, and took a few steps forward to rub Shen Fu's eyebrows.

"It will definitely be fine. Besides, Xiao Guizi has passed by here, so we will know what happened sooner or later."

Zi Su rubbed Chen Fu's brow, feeling distressed. The Empress has seen a lot of the affairs in the harem, and every step she takes is dangerous.

She stood behind Shen Fu and sighed deeply: "My queen, don't think too much, or you will hurt yourself."

Zi Su tried to comfort her for a long time, but Chen Fu remained silent.

There was a sound of footsteps at the door, and Lin An walked in hurriedly: "Madam."

Xiao Guizi knelt on one knee and saluted Chen Fu.

Shen Fu immediately said, “Get up!”

"Did you see what those two eunuchs were carrying just now?"

Xiao Guizi had just stood up from the ground, and when he raised his head, his face looked a little grim.

There was some sweat on his forehead. He raised his sleeves and wiped his forehead. Then he said tremblingly: "Madam, those two eunuchs are carrying a corpse!"

As soon as Xiao Guizi finished speaking, Zi Su's hand holding the teacup trembled.

The teacup fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Chen Fu glanced at her without blinking, and then looked at Xiao Guizi:

"Go on." What she just saw was indeed correct.

What the two young eunuchs were carrying was indeed a corpse!

"Did you see who it was?"

"Slave...slave..." Xiao Guizi knelt on the ground, stammering.

He looked towards Chen Fu, but was trembling and dared not utter a word.

Chen Fu looked at Xiao Guizi's face and her heart sank: "If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to hide it."

After hearing this, Xiao Guizi felt relieved instantly.

"Madam." Xiao Guizi knelt on the ground and raised her head to Chen Fu and said, "It was too dark at that time. I followed the two eunuchs all the way to the lotus pond and saw with my own eyes that the two men threw the dead man into the pond."

"It's just that I was so far away that I couldn't see it clearly." Xiao Guizi paused when she said this:

"But I vaguely saw that face, and it looked a bit like Miss Rong Qi who had just been punished..." Rong Qi's face was not that eye-catching.

But her face had just been punished, and it was swollen like a pig's head. There was no one else like her in the entire harem.

Xiao Guizi didn't actually see it clearly, but this was the only thing that made him feel sure.

"After that, I followed behind them and watched with my own eyes as the two young eunuchs entered the Ronghua Palace."

As soon as the words fell, Shen Fu's brows couldn't help but tighten.

"Rong Qi?" Rong Fei's sister?

Is it true that she was the one who died?

Chen Fu sat on the chair, thinking deeply in her mind.

If the dead person was really Rong Qi, then the person who harmed her must be Rong Fei without a doubt.

But Chen Fu really couldn't imagine that Concubine Rong would really be so cruel.

No matter what, Rong Qi was her biological sister, so how could he really want to take her life?

Shen Fu really couldn't figure it out and felt uneasy.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to go over and get the person out?" Xiao Guizi stepped forward and lowered her voice as she leaned close to Shen Bian.

"Whether it is Miss Rong Qi or not, we will know it once we fish her out and take a look."

"No." Shen Fu's face changed immediately when she thought of something.

She raised her hand to stop him: "Don't act rashly."

Rong Qi's death was obviously not something that could be made public, and Concubine Rong handled it so carefully, obviously wanting to keep it secret.

Not only was she the daughter of a minister and the empress dowager's own niece, but she died so quietly.

It was also thrown into the lotus pond silently.

Just by thinking about this place, Chen Fu could guess how many secrets were hidden here.

If you alert the enemy...

Chen Fu's fingertips fell on the armrest, and she couldn't help but tap it up and down: "Don't pass it easily."

Was this a trap or was it done by Concubine Rong herself?

It's all a mystery now.

Chen Fu closed her eyes and pondered, "If you want to know whether the dead person is Rong Qi, just follow me to Ronghua Palace today."

Whether it is true or not, you will know it at a glance.

*******

The next morning, Chen Fu walked towards Ronghua Palace.

The sedan chair arrived at the gate of Ronghua Palace, and the leading eunuch was just entering the house to report.

In Ronghua Palace, when Concubine Rong heard this, she was apparently a little stunned.

Concubine Rong was sitting on a beauty couch made of small-leaf red sandalwood, with a handkerchief covering half of her face.

Only a pair of eyes were fixed on the outside, with a bit of viciousness between his eyebrows: "Who did you say is here?"

"The sedan chair of Concubine Zhao has arrived at the gate of Ronghua Palace." The young eunuch knelt on the ground and reminded, "My lady, do you want to see her or not?"

When Rong Fei thought of Chen Fu's expression, she couldn't help but tighten her fingertips on the armrest.

Half of her current fate was caused by Shen Fu.

If it weren't for Shen Fu, how could she have fallen to this state today?

"Tell her to tell me that I don't want to see her!" After Rong Fei finished speaking, the little eunuch kneeling on the ground raised his head.

He hesitated and knelt there, refusing to leave.

"Mother...Mother." The young eunuch knelt on the ground, full of hesitation.

When Concubine Rong saw her like this, she was about to get angry. It was Nanny Qin who stepped forward and reminded, "Your Majesty, it is Consort Zhao who is here now."

Nanny Qin spoke softly, but she pronounced the word "Zhao Fei" very loudly.

Things are different now, Chen Fu is now Concubine Zhao, and in terms of status, she sits on the same level as Concubine Rong.

Not to mention, Zhao Fei has a title, so if we really talk about seniority, she is superior to Rong Fei.

Now that she is here, Concubine Rong can no longer act the same as before.

If you want to see someone, you can see him. If you don’t want to see him, you can disappear.

Although Nanny Qin's reminder was obscure, Concubine Rong at least understood it.

Her face turned red and then pale.

The hands in her sleeves clenched several times: "What does she want to do here?"

"Empress Zhao has just been promoted, and all the concubines in the palace have come to congratulate her."

Nanny Qin thought of something and stood aside to remind her, "You are the only one who is not good."

"I'm going to congratulate her?" Rong Fei gritted her teeth and said, "Is she worthy?!"
