Chapter 588 Interrogation

Chen Xiao handed a scroll of portrait to Princess Yongen. Princess Yongen hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it.

This portrait is the original work of Ye Xing, not copied by other artists, and the original work has a higher degree of restoration.

The portrait was unfolded in Princess Yongen's hand. Just halfway through, Princess Yongen's hand suddenly burst out. Although her expression was still calm, the shock in her eyes exposed her fear.

She has seen and known the people in the portrait!

"What's wrong with him? What's wrong with you, ah?"

A trace of mockery flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes: "Do you know me?"

"I..." Princess Yongen swallowed the words to her mouth with difficulty. She shook her head, "It's just familiar, I can't remember it."

"He died and buried outside your back window under the peony flowers."

If you die under the peony flowers, you will be romantic even if you become a ghost. Only he himself knows whether Zhu Wanhua thinks the same way.

"What are you talking about? You talk nonsense, you talk nonsense."

Princess Yongen stood up, her face pale as paper, her lips trembled, and the barely maintained honor disappeared.

"This person is Zhu Wanhua. He is the corner of the leopard room and is very entangled with many men with good male style. He is also the real murderer of the Hawk Hutong murder case. Shuntian Mansion has issued a sea arrest document. A few days ago, someone saw him appearing at the back door of your mansion. Today we dug out his body in your third yard. Now your daughter has been escorted to Shuntian Mansion. Princess, do you think I need to lie to you?"

Chen Xiao’s voice was cold, like an ice spring bursting out from the cold peaks and cold rocks, which penetrated the heart.

Princess Yongen was so excited that she murmured: "No, how could he be? How could he go to that kind of place? No, that's not him, it must be not."

"Tell me, who is the person you know, whose surname and what is your relationship with you?" Chen Xiao asked.

Princess Yongen suddenly realized, and woke up from her dream. She raised her head and looked directly at Chen Xiao: "There is a birthmark on his right arm, the size of a copper coin..."

"Everyone who has been to the Leopard Room knows that Zhu Wanhua has tattoos on his back and both arms, and there is a picture of a magpies climbing on his right arm. Even if there is a birthmark, it will be covered long ago." Chen Xiao said.

Princess Yongen sat back on the chair dejectedly, and she suddenly laughed: "Why, why bother, why bother?"

"From last year to now, you have sent Mrs. Gu six times. Mrs. Gu returned these clothes the next day. Princess, are those clothes still there?"

Perhaps Chen Xiao's words turned too fast, and he was still talking about Zhu Wanhua just now, but suddenly he talked about delivering clothes to Mrs. Gu. Princess Yongen was caught off guard: "Clothing, what clothes?"

"You have sent the clothes you gave to Mrs. Gu, the Prince of Long'an Palace, six times."

After the death of the Prince of Long'an, Mrs. Gu was confined to the Longan Palace. The front and back doors of the palace were built, and only a small door was opened to allow only one person to pass through, which was used to deliver rice, flour and food. There were even an imperial guard outside.

Princess Yongen was stunned: "Six times? I only sent it once. She refused to accept it. She returned it to me the next day. She was locked up and wanted to refute me to face. Why did I still want to curry favor with her? Who is she, a slut from a palace maid!"

When Gu first entered the palace, there was rumors that Gu was favored by the late emperor. This matter has passed for many years and there is no way to test it. Even if Gu was really lucky to give it to Zhao Bai'an after the late emperor, so what? Gu is not a concubine, but just a concubine, but a concubine. To put it bluntly, it is just a play. The emperor rewarded the subjects with the plays he had played with, just like a inkstone and a fan. People in the world would not slander the emperor, but would only laugh at Zhao Bai'an for treating a play as a treasure. Not only did he not marry the concubine, he also allowed a concubine to give birth to his eldest son.

Speaking of which, the embarrassing thing is the Longan Palace.

The Gu family has been in the Longan Palace for many years, and Princess Yongen scolded her for many years. Before she married into Shu in her early years, she cursed Gu every now and then, and it was even more common to punish her kneel.

She is the real princess, and Gu is just her brother's concubine.

Now Shen Xiao actually said that she went to curry favor with that concubine, and she also cursed with him six times. How could Princess Yongen agree?

At the spring banquet that year, Zheng Wan offended the third princess and completely lost favor with the mother and daughter in front of the empress dowager.

At that time, Princess Yongen really wanted to go over to find Gu, but when she thought of Gu's appearance, she still didn't go.

Until last year, Zheng Yu, who became the Crown Princess, also neglected the mother and daughter. Except for her daughter, Princess Yongen had no one to discuss. Until then, she remembered Gu again.

In any case, Gu was also a wife from the Zhao family, and she broke her bones and connected her tendons.

So Princess Yongen asked someone to make a few autumn clothes and send them to Gu.

But unexpectedly, Gu did not appreciate it and returned the next day.

Princess Yongen was very angry and broke several cups, scolding Gu for being shameless.

"I only sent it once, only once. After she returned it, I never sent it again. You can check it or ask Gu himself."

Princess Yongen took a deep breath, bitch, he is such a bitch. He is still banned and wants to drag her into the water, dreaming!

"Who else knows about sending clothes to the Longan Prince's Mansion?"

Princess Yongen was stunned. What does Shen Xiao mean?

Does anyone know that she gave Gu something and wanted to blame her?

A shadow flashed through Princess Yongen's mind. No, it's impossible!

"My close maid and mother know that the clothes were sent by Madam Chai, but it could not be her."

"Where is your daughter Zheng Wan, does she know?" Shen Xiao asked.

Princess Yongen's eyes flashed, and Zheng Wan of course knew that they were both mother and daughter who depended on each other and she would not hide it from Zheng Wan. In fact, even if she wanted to hide it, she could not hide it.

This is not the Zheng family in Shu, nor is it the Longan Prince's Mansion.

Except for the few elderly people they brought from Shu, everyone else went to the capital to buy them.

Princess Yongen herself didn't know when those people stopped obeying her orders.

They only listened to Zheng Wan's mansion. Except for Madam Chai who had followed her for many years and the people she brought back from Shu, everyone else was Zheng Wan's.

But she couldn't say these things, at least she couldn't say them to Shen Xiao.

Shen Xiao is Zhaoyang's son-in-law, and she cannot let Zhaoyang laugh at her. Her daughter is better and more filial than Zhaoyang's daughter!

"My daughter is a lady from a family, and she is all about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is not interested in these things."

As soon as he said that, Princess Yongen suddenly remembered Shen Xiao and told her that Zheng Wan was taken away by Shuntian Mansion.

how so?

Zheng Wan is her daughter, and Shuntian Mansion has no right to take people away.

It's so strange. When Shen Xiao talked to her just now, she didn't even think much about it.
