Qian Ertong glanced at the two women lying on the ground, and told the secret guard: "Even if this matter is settled, leave one person to deal with the body of "Gu Meiren", and the others can report it to your prince."
The secret guard carefully left with the body of "little maid", while the remaining secret guard walked towards the body of "Gu Meiren".
He turned Gu Meiren's body over, and the face under the red clothes was naturally that of the little maid Chuntao.
Qian Ertong glanced at the bright red robe and smiled mockingly, "It's a waste of this fine red dress."
The secret guard dragged the body of "Gu Meiren" and followed Qian Ertong.
Qian Ertong returned to the gate of Prince Huai's Mansion, but Zhu Sha was still controlled by Xie Xun at the gate of Prince Huai's Mansion and could not move.
Qian Ertong walked up to Zhu Sha and asked, "General Zhu, I have taken care of it. Gu Meiren's body is in the courtyard. Do you want to take a last look at her?"
Zhu Sha asked with a trembling voice, "What do you mean by looking at her for the last time? Her body should be handed over to me..."
Qian Ertong glanced at him with pity and said, "Your Majesty has a destiny. Beauty Gu can deceive people's hearts. After death, the body should be burned completely without leaving a trace."
Hearing this, the tough-minded man shed tears in his eyes.
"My lord, how much do you hate her?! You hate her so much that you are not even willing to leave her a complete body after her death!!"
Xie Xun was silent for a while and then said, "Meimei Gu has harmed the country with her beauty, deceived people's hearts, and is suspected of being involved in witchcraft. Your Majesty's orders are just to act in accordance with the law."
"Do you want to see her for the last time?"
Through the gate of Prince Huai's Mansion, you can see a fallen body lying next to a secret guard.
She was wearing a red dress, and her black hair was soft and shiny, flowing down her neck, covering half of her face.
Zhu Sha stood up and staggered to the side of the corpse, and a hoarse cry came from his mouth.
The soldiers around him could not help but look away, unwilling to look at General Zhu's fragile side.
After a while, Qian Ertong said to Zhu Sha: "Master Zhu, when the time is up, I will take this body away. From now on... Master Zhu, please look away."
The secret guard dragged Gu Meiren's body and followed Qian Ertong, and next to Qian Ertong was the "little maid" who appeared from the air with her at some unknown time.
It's just that the little maid seemed to be moved by the scene, her head hung so low that people couldn't see her face clearly.
After a while, Qian Ertong led people to the mass grave.
The secret guard set "Gu Meiren"'s body on fire.
Qian Ertong stayed by the side until the corpse was completely burned, leaving only withered bones and its original appearance could no longer be seen. Then he raised his head and said to "Chun Tao" on the side, "Young lady, please pretend to be Chuntao and come out with me.
Next, you can follow the secret guards back to your home.
The little maid nodded, then raised her head. Where was the Chuntao? It was clearly the little maid serving Qin Rushuang.
The secret guard couldn't help but ask: "What about you, Mr. Qian?"
Qian Ertong replied, "Of course I have to go back to the palace to recover my life."
"But when you came out with that little maid, there were two of you, and when you went back there was only one. How can you explain this to His Majesty?"
Qian Ertong smiled and said in a low voice, "It's only when I go back alone that I can explain."
After a while, Qian Ertong returned to the palace and immediately went to see Emperor Qi.
"Your Majesty, everything has been settled. I watched Gu Meiren die with my own eyes, and personally ordered her body to be taken to a mass grave and burned."
"When I went there, I brought a little maid named Chuntao with me. When the little maid returned to the palace, she "slipped" and fell into the water. When she was picked up, she was no longer there. Your Majesty, look at this..."
Emperor Qi waved his hand and said, "If she's not here, she's not here anymore. Who asked her to walk carelessly? It's good to do this, so that she won't spread some inappropriate words in the palace after she comes back."
Emperor Qi said this, but in his heart he was very satisfied with what Qian Ertong had done.
He knew that the little maid Chuntao probably didn't slip and fall into the water, but Qian Ertong "handled it" for him.
That's fine, it's a scandal of the Heavenly Family, and the fewer people know about it, the better.
Qian Ertong took care of the little palace maid outside the palace for him, saving him from having to find excuses to deal with it in the palace.
After finishing speaking, he told Qian Ertong: "This matter is over here. I don't want to hear any more news about this matter from spreading among the people."
Qian Ertong lowered his head and replied, "I understand."
…
In the palace of Prince Huai.
Zhu Sha, who saw Gu Meiren for the last time, left Prince Huai's Mansion in despair, without even saying hello to Xie Xun.
After he left, a black figure in the alley in the distance silently retreated, making many twists and turns, and finally returned to the mansion of the fourth prince Xie Yang.
The subordinate told Xie Yang and Xiao Shan everything he saw and heard today.
After hearing this, Xie Yang said: "Okay, I know. It's a pity that you couldn't enter Prince Huai's mansion and didn't see how Gu Meiren died in the end... But I can see Zhu Sha and Xie Xun's jokes.
I feel completely satisfied.”
"You should go back and rest first. Chuntao will probably spread the news about the affairs in Prince Huai's Mansion, so there is no need for you to inquire."
Xie Yang ordered his men like this, but they waited and waited but no news came from Chuntao.
It was not until he sent someone to inquire that he found out that Chuntao was following Qian Ertong to dispose of the body today and "lost his footing and fell into the water" and the person was gone.
Xie Yang was a little angry.
"Okay! No wonder Qian Ertong wanted to take this little girl with him. It turned out that he had long seen that this little girl was my spy planted beside him, and he used the excuse of doing this matter for His Majesty to kill people and silence her!
When we get to my father's place, he will definitely be worried about this little girl talking too much."
Xiao Shan said calmly: "If you kill a servant, just kill him."
Compared to Xie Yang's anger, Xiao Shan acted very calmly.
"Well, we will benefit more from this matter this time. It will make Zhu Sha and Xie Xun separate. You just lost an informant. Just think of it as Xie Xun venting his anger."
"I was originally monitoring Qian Ertong, and he is not an important figure. If he dies, he will die."
Xie Yang nodded, this matter was finally revealed.
The third day after Gu Meiren's death.
Xie Xun went to the general's mansion to invite Qin Rushuang again, and this time Qin Rushuang was finally willing to let him in.
Xie Xun's face was full of surprise, and he quickly ordered the people behind him, "Hurry up and bring in all the gifts I have prepared for the princess!"
Xie Xun was followed by many soldiers, who carried seven or eight large boxes and locked them tightly.
One of them accidentally opened some, revealing the gold, silver, jewelry, calligraphy and painting curios inside.
I think I found a lot of treasures to please Qin Rushuang.
No one thinks there's anything wrong with any of this.
And one of the boxes containing Gu Meiren followed him into the general's mansion like a fool.
Those boxes followed Xie Xun all the way and were carried into Qin Rushuang's courtyard. Qin Rushuang ordered his servants to carry them to Mrs. Qin's courtyard.
The moment he saw Qin Rushuang, Xie Xun truly relaxed.
"This matter is finally settled. Now we just have to wait for the storm to pass and arrange a new identity for Gu Ren."
Qin Rushuang also felt a big stone falling from her heart.
I think of the scene when Zhu Sha made a big fuss at the gate of Prince Huai's Mansion when the secret guard came to report Gu Meiren's death...
Qin Rushuang couldn't help but said, "I didn't expect General Zhu to be so realistic. I even cried when I heard about it."
Xie Xun smiled and said: "The woman I admired went around in circles, but in the end she didn't mean anything to him. I guess it was sadness that came from my heart, so I couldn't help but cry."
"General Zhu these days..."
"I ordered him to stay in the mansion for the next few days and go to His Majesty in a few days to ask for a favor."
"What grace?"
"I have asked you to lower your military rank and serve under the top military officer in the Imperial City Army."
