Chapter 84 The plot has changed
Shen Qing sat in front of the mirror, looking at his face, thoughts surging in his mind.
This plot doesn’t make sense. How could the second prince die?
She had finished reading the original novel "Linglong Biography". Although the whole text revolved around the heroine, she clearly remembered that the second prince was framed and had his leg broken in the late stage of the fight between the heroine and Concubine Yu. Later, when the heroine supported her son to ascend to the throne, because of his disabled leg, he posed no threat, so the second prince ended up becoming an idle prince.
Although Concubine Yu was killed by the heroine, the second prince was not really dead.
But now, the second prince is dead?
Has the plot changed?
Did the plot just change the second prince? Or is it that there is no going back?
Shen Qing had no habit of deceiving herself. She had to admit that when she heard about the second prince falling into the water, a voice in her heart told her that the plot had changed, and it might be more outrageous than she thought, and it couldn't be changed back. After all, without the second prince, could Concubine Yu still be as domineering as before? Could she still wantonly provoke the new female owner in the palace?
It's impossible. The plot has really gone astray and it may not even be able to return to the main storyline.
Now she doesn't know how the plot will go. Will the heroine enter the palace? Will the emperor die young because of the plague? Will Concubine Yu die? Will the queen fight with the heroine until she dies? Although Concubine Ru and Concubine Chun don't have many roles in the later period, they still have roles. Shen Qing remembers that there are three people in the palace fighting champion group in the original ending.
One of the heroines was Chu Linglong, one was Concubine Chun, and the other was Concubine An. The rest were all wiped out.
As for Concubine Chun and Concubine An, as far as Shen Qing knew, they were very low-key. She rarely saw them and they didn't even have much communication.
But there is no need for that. Now it seems that the plot she already knows can no longer be used as a reference. It is probably better to take it one step at a time to avoid being misled by the original work.
What else can she do now? Anyway, she can only think of herself as not traveling through a book, but traveling to a strange world. At most, she would be a little more reserved when the heroine of the original novel appears. If she really wants to curry favor with him, she still has to consider the current situation.
After figuring this out, Shen Qing let out a long breath, and then silently twitched her mouth. Damn, she is really the most aggrieved book-traveler, right?
She also traveled through books, and she also controlled the script and dominated everyone. But she traveled through the wrong time. Not only was it two years earlier than the original, but now the plot has been changed. God knows how it will develop later. It's really fucked up.
Then he began to think about the second prince falling into the water.
It is impossible that the second prince fell into the water for no reason.
To identify the murderer, we naturally have to look at who benefits the most from this incident.
The one who benefited the most was the queen.
But no matter whether the Queen sent someone to do this or not, given Xuanyuan Ling's distrust of the Queen, she might now suspect the Queen. Just like the incident with the contraceptive pills, the Queen suffered a loss because of the contraceptive pills. So this time the Queen will definitely find someone to distance herself from the matter.
Thinking of this, Shen Qing shouted outside: “Chunhua.”
Chunhua was waiting outside because she thought Shen Qing was in a bad mood, and she came in immediately: "What do you want, my lord?"
"Go and ask Wang Lu to close the gate of Zhaohua Palace. Something has happened to the Second Prince. Don't go out until the truth is revealed."
"yes."
At this juncture, the Queen could catch anyone to be a scapegoat. She was actually still lucky. After all, the matter of the contraceptive pills was still there, and the Queen should not touch her. She still needed her. As for whether she would be implicated in this matter, she could only wait. Going out and jumping around would only increase suspicion, so it was better for her to stay quiet.
Xuanyuan Ling was comforting Concubine Yu and asking people to deal with the Second Prince's matter. The Third Princess was frightened at the time because she fell down, and now she was crying and shouting when she saw Concubine Yu like that. Only after Concubine Yu hugged the Third Princess did she come back to her senses from her intense grief.
She hugged the third princess and couldn't hold back her tears.
When the Third Princess cried herself to sleep, Concubine Yu refused to let go. She already had no child, and now that the child was no longer in front of her, she felt like she would have lost him too.
Xuanyuan Ling immediately gave the order: "From now on, the Third Princess must be accompanied by six more guards. Concubine Yu, you should have a good rest, or you will collapse."
How can Concubine Yu rest?
After Xuanyuan Ling spoke, she handed the Third Princess to the maid who was serving her, and then she knelt in front of Xuanyuan Ling. She said, "I am a domineering concubine and have done many wrong things. I deserve to die, but the Second Prince is still young and innocent. He suffered such a catastrophic disaster today. Someone must have harmed him. Please, Your Majesty, make sure to investigate and avenge the Second Prince!"
"I know that the Second Prince is my child. I will not let him go in such an unclear way."
Concubine Yu's heart was twisted into a ball of grief and bitterness, and she was extremely fragile. She stood up at this moment, and couldn't help it. She hadn't seen Xuanyuan Ling for a long time, and she was worried that he was angry with her and would never see her again. Now that she encountered such a thing, he was still there. Concubine Yu needed someone to accompany and rely on her the most at this moment, and she finally couldn't help but hugged Xuanyuan Ling.
"Your Majesty, our child..."
Xuanyuan Ling frowned subconsciously when he hugged her suddenly. Seeing her crying and fainting several times, he felt a little pity in his heart and did not push her away: "Go and have a rest. I will not let the Queen investigate this matter."
This is a reassurance to Concubine Yu.
When Concubine Yu heard this, tears welled up in her eyes again: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
This night can be said to be stormy.
No one slept well.
Zhao Hai didn't dare to be negligent. After all, the inner palace was sealed. He would be able to find clues by checking one by one.
When the investigation reached Concubine Fang's palace, problems arose.
A eunuch in Concubine Fang's palace went missing.
At this critical juncture, the sudden disappearance of a eunuch would inevitably lead to people thinking of something wrong.
The second prince was pushed into the water by a eunuch.
Zhao Hai was in a dilemma. After all, Concubine Fang was pregnant. He couldn't offend her at this moment. He could only suppress the news and continue to investigate. Zhao Hai was afraid. If Concubine Fang really did it, then...
As luck would have it, someone reported that Suqiu was burning something in the house.
At this time, it would be better to arrest the wrong person than to let him go, so Zhao Hai immediately brought Su Qiu over for interrogation.
Concubine Shen didn't expect that after she had done everything and the matter was over, the scapegoat that Concubine Fang had originally buried was dug out, and it turned out that the problem was the heart knot. She just ordered Suqiu to burn it, but it actually attracted attention.
How could it be such a coincidence?
When she asked someone to investigate, she heard a piece of news that one of the guards who was patrolling that night had left without reason and asked to be caught, and the eunuch's clothes were found in his room.
The moment Concubine Shen heard the news, she was completely stunned. Then she finally realized something was wrong. She was being targeted.
Just when she realized it, two palace maids she had never seen before suddenly entered her room.
Concubine Shen already felt something was wrong: "What are you going to do?"
