Chapter 402: Homicide? ?
Yanyan said to Nanny Wang with a cold face, "Send someone to guard the yard. Don't touch anything inside! Someone will come to check tomorrow!"
Nanny Wang was startled and nodded respectfully, "I obey your command!"
When Yanyan saw her nod, she took Yuzhu away! She left the yard and walked back to the sedan chair, then said to the maid who followed her, "You stay to accompany Nanny Wang, and the others follow me back!"
"Slave, you obey!"
Yanyan held a hot water bottle in her hand and leaned quietly on the sedan chair! She muttered in her heart, "Who dares to lay a hand on Concubine He? This is the Regent's Mansion! Aren't Nanny Wang and the others guarding it all the time? How come they didn't hear any movement? This shouldn't be the case! The maids and servants were guarding the door. How could this person strangle Concubine He to death without anyone noticing, and pretend that she committed suicide out of fear of punishment! This is not so easy to do! Concubine He is a living person, it is impossible for her not to struggle at all!"
Yuzhu followed the sedan chair and said to the boy carrying it, "Lift the sedan chair!"
Yanyan leaned on the sedan chair, her thoughts were not disturbed at all, she felt distressed and a little frightened, frightened by the audacity of these people, people in the palace, they killed them just like that? She secretly said, "Fortunately, there are secret guards and guards in the main courtyard, otherwise we would have to live in fear every day! But who on earth is this, who has such means! Wang Ma took action? This shouldn't be the case! Wang Ma doesn't know martial arts, and there are several maids and servants in the courtyard, she can't send them all away, right?!"
Back in the main courtyard, Yanyan took off her cloak and handed it to Yuzhu, saying to Liu Wu in the dark, "Tell the prince about this tomorrow morning. This concubine He doesn't seem to have committed suicide for her own sins, but rather it seems like she was murdered! This matter must be investigated thoroughly!"
Liu Wu nodded and then disappeared into the darkness!
Yanyan took off the fur hat on her head and placed it on the table. Then she walked into the inner room. After a few steps into the room, she lay down on the bed and curled up in the quilt, feeling the long-lost warmth. "Really? It's so cold to go out in the middle of the night! I feel like I've caught a cold!"
I held the hot water bottle on the bed in my arms, and then I felt a little warmer. The warm passion spread and I fell asleep immediately!
Seeing that the princess was sleeping well, Yuzhu left quietly, yawned, and fell asleep on the small bed!
forecourt
Butler Zhou heard the servant come to report, "Butler Zhou, Butler Zhou, something bad has happened to Concubine He!"
Housekeeper Zhou frowned and pulled the servant aside. "Shh, you are so tactless. The prince is sleeping! Why are you making so much noise? If your concubine He feels unwell, can't she call a doctor? The prince doesn't know any medical skills, so what's the point of calling him? How can a concubine like her disturb the prince's sleep? Why is she becoming more and more ignorant!"
The servant lowered his head and whispered, "Housekeeper Zhou, Concubine He is not sick. Nanny Wang said that she committed suicide by hanging herself out of fear of punishment! The princess just went to see her! She just returned now!"
Butler Zhou had a cold face and frowned, "Dead? What did the princess say!"
"Princess, please tell the prince later!"
Butler Zhou nodded slightly, looked at the closed door, and said in a cold voice, "Go back! I'll talk to the prince after he wakes up. The prince has just fallen asleep, and we can't disturb him!" There is no need to be so anxious about a concubine, she is just a toy of the prince!
The servant looked at Butler Zhou and respectfully withdrew. He walked out of the main courtyard and couldn't help muttering, "Is a human life so worthless? You can't even wake the prince up?!" After that, he walked dejectedly to his room, walked quietly to the innermost of the big bunk bed, and lay down on the thin quilt! Tears couldn't help but fall! He sighed, "Life is cheap!"
next day
Yanyan was wearing her official robes and eating when Zhou Yanze came over with his men. "Yanyan, why are you eating so late?"
Yanyan yawned and said, "Last night, something happened to Concubine He, so I went to check on her. It would be too late if I went back to sleep! I just woke up!"
Zhou Yanze sat down next to her and said to her, "Thank you for your hard work last night. This concubine He committed suicide for her crime, and she deserved it! Don't be too sad!"
Yanyan put down the silver spoon in her hand in surprise, looked at him and said, "Yan Ze, I looked carefully last night, and Concubine He didn't seem to commit suicide. I felt that she was strangled to death and hanged! Who told you to commit suicide out of fear of punishment!?"
Butler Zhou looked at Butler Zhou with a cold face, "Didn't you say that she committed suicide out of fear of punishment? How could she be strangled to death?"
Housekeeper Zhou was so scared that he swallowed his saliva and said guiltily, "It was Nanny Wang who said that she committed suicide by hanging. I haven't had time to go over and check! I can only repeat what Nanny Wang said!"
Zhou Yanze glared at Zhou Yanze fiercely, took Yanyan's hand apologetically, and said gently and tenderly, "I'll go over and take a look. If this is homicide, this house will have to be cleaned up again!" It was becoming more and more unsafe, and the hand was even reaching into the house!
Yanyan raised her eyes to look at him and said softly, "Yan Ze, go over there! This mansion really needs to be cleaned out! They are all other people's spies, so the safety issue is very worrying!"
Zhou Yanze placed a kiss on Yanyan's hair, and then he was reluctant to leave! As soon as he walked out of the door, his face turned cold. "This concubine He is dead, why did you say it now! You didn't send someone to check it out. Nanny Wang said that she committed suicide by hanging herself out of fear of punishment. Did she commit suicide out of fear of punishment? How can a wet nurse like her understand these things?! She has been trapped in the backyard all her life, how can she understand so much!"
Zhou Yanze followed quickly, lowering his head and saying guiltily, "Your Highness, this is all my negligence. I trusted Nanny Wang too much, so I didn't send anyone over! Please punish me, Your Highness! I will definitely be more careful next time!"
Zhou Yanze said in a cold voice, "You go back and get five sticks. If you kill Concubine He quietly, you can kill others quietly. This matter must be investigated thoroughly! The princess is in the mansion! If anything happens to the princess, you will be beheaded!"
Housekeeper Zhou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead as he walked, cursing in his heart, "Madame Wang is really useless. There is a huge difference between committing suicide by hanging and being strangled, how can you not tell the difference? You made me get scolded! She is really useless, but the prince favors her!"
Zhou Yanze came to the outside of Concubine He's yard with a cold face, walked in, and saw that Nanny Wang was not in a good mood for the first time!
Nanny Wang bowed in confusion and said, "I pay my respects to the prince. Last night, the concubine He committed suicide out of fear of punishment. I have been guarding the courtyard except for calling the princess!"
Zhou Yanze walked straight in with a cold face, pushed open the door, looked at the stiff concubine He inside, and after a careful look, he said to housekeeper Zhou, "Investigate carefully, I want to see who has put their hands in the mansion!"
"Slave, you obey!"
Zhou Yanze looked at Concubine He's miserable state, feeling annoyed. He raised his hand and rubbed his swollen head, cursing inwardly, "This Concubine He died inexplicably, and I'm afraid Concubine Li will make trouble again. It gives me a headache just thinking about it!"
