Chapter 542: dead
Afterwards, the congregation invited the Great Immortal Bailian back and served him devoutly every day.
Su Ying finished eating all the dim sum, and ordered some on the table with her fingertips, "Then, have you heard what this White Lotus Immortal has done?"
Zhou Qingdao: "It\'s just something that sounds a little mysterious, nothing too special."
Su Ying thinks it is right to have faith, but she is afraid that this kind of faith will be used by those who are interested, "Go to Director Zhang in a while, and ask her to find two clever people who can punch and kick for you, and let them break into this Bailian Great Immortal. Among the congregation, tell them to report immediately if there is anything abnormal."
"The servant understands."
…
King Yu was assassinated, and his whereabouts are unknown now. After the early court, Xiao Jin called several trusted ministers to discuss the solution to this matter.
After some discussions, several ministers unanimously decided to explain the situation to the monarch of the Southern Kingdom first, and see how the other party responds. The remaining southerners should be sent abroad as soon as possible to avoid troubles.
However, for Xiao Jin, the important thing is not the life and death of King Yu, but the person who assassinated King Yu behind his back, clearly wanting to stir up disputes between the two countries.
When Xiao Jin wrote to the Nanguo monarch, he emphasized that someone wanted to sow dissension. As long as the Nanguo monarch is not stupid, he will not make this matter a big deal, otherwise no one will be able to step down.
After the ministers retreated, Zhang Shuming came to the case with a stack of drawings.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty said the day before yesterday that she wanted to build a playground for the eldest prince and princesses in the open space of the harem. The craftsman got the instructions from your Majesty and went back to discuss it. After some discussions, he drew up the blueprint and asked the Emperor to look at it."
This drawing showed Xiao Jin the process of starting work.
Xiao Jin had already heard from Su Ying last night, and he was also very curious about what the playground would look like after it was built.
"Just do what your mother tells you."
"yes."
The playground started working in three days.
The open space has been abandoned for so long, and it is covered with weeds. Workers need to clean up the weeds and lay green bricks.
On the morning when work started, Su Ying woke up early.
"Mother, the workers over there have already started working, do you want to go and have a look?" Zhou Qing knew that Su Ying cared about this playground, so she kept reporting the situation there to Su Ying.
Su Ying nodded, "Well, go and have a look."
After having breakfast, Su Ying went to the open space, where the workers were busy repairing the walls and plastering green bricks.
This space is not very big, it looks like there are only a few hundred bungalows in total, but it is enough for children to play and relax.
There is also an abandoned palace beside the open space. While building the playground, Zhang Shuming also asked someone to finish the palace by the way. When the time comes, the masters will have a place to rest when they are tired from playing.
"Your Majesty, see if there is anything else you need to arrange. Tell the old slave, and the old slave will let someone arrange it immediately."
Zhang Shuming is very thoughtful, he can think of everything she can\'t think of, so just leave the matter to him, "I can\'t think of it for the time being, if you think of it, you can tell me."
"yes."
In fact, it is not difficult at all to make children\'s entertainment facilities, and because Su Ying needs them, the workers and craftsmen worked very hard, and they were all ready in less than half a month.
Su Ying likes this kind of efficiency.
As soon as the maid who sent the message stepped back, Zhou Qing smiled and said: "It\'s already dark today, and the empress can take the eldest prince and the others to have a look tomorrow." Although the empress didn\'t say anything, she could feel that she was looking forward to it even more than the elder prince and the others. This playground is built!
Su Yingen made a sound, and happily talked with the two treasures about how to play tomorrow.
The three mother and son were talking enthusiastically, and Zhang Shuming arrived outside the door.
"Your Majesty, there is a message from the Ministry of Punishment."
The smile on Su Ying\'s face faded slightly, she immediately got up and walked outside, there were some things she didn\'t want her child to hear too much.
"What\'s up?"
Zhang Shuming said softly: "Zhou Xiangrong is dead."
Su Ying frowned, she had guessed just now, it has been more than half a month, and she should die, "Why did you die?"
"Exhausted to death." He strangled himself to death with an iron chain.
In the past half a month, she has been immersed in an infinite loop of pain that can tear her apart. Zhou Xiangrong chose to die while there was still a glimmer of clarity.
"However, the people at the Ministry of Criminal Justice said that her corpse is a bit strange."
The people in the Ministry of Criminal Justice have never seen any strange people. If they feel strange, there must be something wrong.
After listening to Zhang Shuming\'s words, Su Ying decided to go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to have a look.
Zhou Xiangrong\'s body has been transported out of the cell and placed in the mortuary room.
Looking from a distance, there is only one single lamp in the entire mortuary room, which looks gloomy and terrifying.
The guards outside the house did not expect someone to come over in the middle of the night, so they hurried over with a lantern to see what happened.
After revealing his identity, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment brought Su Ying to Zhou Xiangrong\'s corpse.
Under the dim light, Zhou Xiangrong\'s face was as pale as a ghost, and he had completely lost his breath.
Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice lifted the white cloth from Zhou Xiangrong\'s body, and found that all the clothes on her body had been taken off.
There are still marks from two barbs on her shoulders, which are **** and disgusting, but other than that, there are no other scars on her body. Su Ying said that anyone who does not go through her It is allowed not to open the door of the cell without permission, and no one dares to disobey Su Ying\'s order.
"Look, ma\'am, the strange thing Weichen said is in her body."
The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice pointed to the bloodstains on Zhou Xiangrong\'s body. He didn\'t know when Zhou Xiangrong got them there. There were streaks of dried blood on her pale body. These bloodstains didn\'t seem to flow naturally, but were thought to be painted on. , even Zhou Xiangrong\'s palm was painted with these bloodstains.
"What is this?" Su Ying looked in several directions, feeling that these bloodstains looked like some kind of special talisman paper.
"What happened to the clothes on her body, did you take them off?"
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice shook his head repeatedly and said: "Mrs. Hui, after you left that day, no one opened the door of that cell. It was just that one person went to deliver food every day, but that person would not go in. When we found out that something was wrong , she had died, and her dress was torn to the ground when she died, Wei Chen felt that she looked a little strange, so he asked someone to tell the empress."
Su Ying asked someone to come in with a pen and paper, and drew all the talismans on Zhou Xiangrong\'s body. She will ask someone to see what it is tomorrow.
