In the past, it would have been a very unusual thing for a lady like her to kill someone, but today, it seems normal for anyone to kill anyone.
After all, there was a person lying on the bed who had been killed, and he was still a woman, and the perpetrator was also a noble concubine.
Zhao Mingxi felt more and more upset, "Okay, we understand, you can go down first! This look is scary to death, and it also makes His Highness feel uncomfortable looking at it."
She sighed heavily, then turned to the prince next to her and said, "Your Highness, it's a mess outside. I'd better go outside and sort things out first! Otherwise, we don't know what kind of trouble is going to happen."
Seeing her about to leave, Jiang Shuhua seemed frightened and quickly grabbed her hand, "No! I killed someone, I killed..."
When she said this, she seemed to be so frightened that she could not speak. She was trembling, and then she said one word at a time: "The third...emperor...son."
The prince, who had no interest in looking at her, suddenly turned his head, his eyes piercing her like two sharp swords, "What did you say?"
Jiang Shuhua shook her head while crying, as if she was explaining, but also as if she was evading, "I don't know what's going on. I originally comforted the little princess and wanted to go over and see the situation on the Queen's side, but who knew there was something going on outside?
It was chaotic. I was hesitating whether to go to the Royal Garden or not when he held me hostage."
She spoke hurriedly and quickly, and she looked a little crazy. Every word came out of her mouth in a hurry.
"He asked me to take him away. He asked me to take him to the East Palace. He said that there was the safest place. I didn't know what he meant or what he wanted to do, so I refused. I didn't
Yes, he has a knife in his hand, he wants me to go, I still have the little princess! My daughter is still in Ciqing Palace, I don’t want to, I don’t want to go...".
She suddenly grabbed the princess's hand with force, "I don't want to go! There is no one in Ciqing Palace at all, and he is carrying a knife! There is blood on his body, and I am very scared."
Who knows what he suddenly said at this time. I was going to marry him and my daughter was supposed to be his daughter. He threatened me and said that if I didn’t take him, he would immediately tell others that my daughter was his.
My daughter, how could he say such things, how could he talk such nonsense?"
Jiang Shuhua said and knelt down in front of the prince, "Your Highness, he is talking nonsense! Your Highness, you know that he is talking nonsense!"
The prince had already been angered by her repeated words, and he clamped her arms firmly with both hands, "What do you mean, what did you say? You killed me.
three?!"
"I can't help it!" Jiang Shuhua suddenly cried loudly, "I can't help it, he forced me! He threatened me, he wanted to go to Ciqing Palace, he wanted to find our daughter, I...I
There is no way, there is really no way! Your Highness!"
Jiang Shuhua wanted to bow down to the prince, "Your Highness, please help me. I really didn't mean to kill him. He forced me too hard. I..."
Zhao Mingxi saw the prince's eyes staring at Jiang Shuhua as if they were shining brightly. "So, did you really kill him?"
Jiang Shuhua nodded while crying, "Your Highness, save me! I will be tortured! I don't want to die!"
"No!" The prince's eyes were probably a little red from exerting too much effort. He gritted his teeth and sneered, "Of course you won't die, you have simply accomplished a great feat! Hahahahahaha!"
In Kunning Palace, in front of the queen's body, the prince's smile looked a little ghostly, and even more frightening.
Zhao Mingxi was stunned for a while, and then slowly came to her senses. She reached out and gently put her hand on Jiang Shuhua's shoulder, "Jiang Liangdi, did anyone else see this?"
Jiang Shuhua was stunned and shook her head slightly, "No!"
After saying that, he immediately shook his head and said, "I didn't see anyone around. I was scared to death. I was afraid that others would see me. I looked around and there was no one."
Zhao Mingxi's eyebrows slowly widened, "Then remember, the third prince was not killed by you. He was killed by his ministers who were dissatisfied with him in today's chaos. It was the work of the rebel army and had nothing to do with you."
Jiang Shuhua looked at Zhao Mingxi blankly, and then
Turning to look at the prince on the other side.
The prince seemed to be in a trance at this time, and was obviously too excited to pay attention to her.
Jiang Shuhua turned her gaze back, looked at Zhao Mingxi and said obediently: "I listen to the Crown Princess."
Originally, she wanted Ye Jinxi to reveal it to the prince, so as not to let her say it herself and make the prince suspicious.
Unexpectedly, the other party did not follow her original plan, so she had to use this trick, hoping that the prince would not notice anything.
As long as the prince does not suspect anything else, she will be a big help when the prince ascends the throne in the future. A concubine cannot escape the throne no matter what.
Or, in less than two days, she could be promoted as a concubine.
As for Ye Jinxi, she was originally given a chance to survive.
Now that she has become an unjust ghost in this palace incident, I can't blame her.
Ye Jinxi, who had become an innocent soul at this time, was trembling behind Xie Songhua, with seven or eight people in uniform falling in front of her.
What stood in front of her and Xie Songhua was a man who appeared from nowhere.
He was dressed in gray clothes and looked much smaller than an ordinary person. His face...
Very unremarkable.
It's like being thrown into a crowd and immediately unrecognizable.
However, this person appeared like a ghost, and then quietly got rid of the few people in front of him.
Then, Ye Jinxi saw the man disappear quietly again.
Ye Jinxi couldn't help but glance around a few times to make sure she didn't see that person, and then asked nervously: "Thank you... Princess, then... who was that person just now..."
Xie Songhua patted her hand, which had always seemed a little too nervous, and it really hurt her. "It's the secret guard given to me by the prince. You don't have to be afraid. He is always here and will get us out safely."
I don't know whether it was Xie Songhua's words that had an effect, or whether the person's action just now made people feel safe. Ye Jinxi really relaxed a lot.
The carriages at the entrance of the palace were already in disarray. Xie Songhua searched for half a day but could not find the British Duke's carriage.
At this moment, there was the sound of horse hoofbeats, and the palace's carriage rushed over.
"Forget it, you'd better follow me back to the palace first! When things get quiet outside later, I'll have someone take you back."
Ye Jinxi was nervous at this time. When she heard what she said, she didn't care about being polite at all, and immediately climbed into the carriage.
She could see that there were two guards in golden uniforms driving the car in front, and there was also a secret guard hidden in the dark. It was safest to follow Xie Songhua.
All the way back, the once bustling and lively market was now completely deserted.
There were trampled objects everywhere, the shops on both sides had their doors closed, and you could occasionally see blood stains on the road that no one had cleaned up.
I don’t know how the third prince entered the city, or whether anything happened after entering the city.
When they arrived at the palace, they saw Butler Huo and a group of people waiting eagerly at the door.
When she saw the carriage bringing her back, she seemed to let out a long sigh of relief, "It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."
