Chapter 173 Night Party
Prince Zhong sighed for a while, finally calmed down his emotions and sighed, "As you said, maybe she wanted to be free. Get up, if this happens, Heng'er's marriage negotiations will be slow. The swallow asked me to take it away. How many pieces can Miaojiang have? When will it arrive?"
"There were four pieces of Swallow Orders lost to Miaojiang by King Jingnan. There should be news in June." Liang Zhan heard the matter of discussing marriage slowed down, and his heart was sinking, afraid that there would be more dreams at night... but he knew that this happened now and he was powerless.
He had to stand up and stand in front of Prince Zhong without any hesitation.
"There are two in the palace. If we get all the Miaojiangs, we will be only two." Prince Zhong held his forehead with his hand, closed his eyes, looked very tired, and waved his hand, "You retreat, I'll wait alone."
Yan Nan was awakened by the noise outside, and her head hurt a little. She turned over and swayed behind the ground cover. Suqin immediately lifted the curtain and came in.
"Madam!" Suqin helped her get up first, "Do you think it's better?"
Yan Nan came down on her arm, "What are you doing outside?"
Suqin helped her sit down in front of the dressing table and whispered: "It was said that the eldest princess committed suicide by drinking poisonous wine!"
Yan Nan opened her mouth in shock, "Die?"
"Yes." Suqin walked to the window and set up a partition, "Sir Shaozai passed by there early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."
Yan Nan changed into the sackclothed clothes and mourning clothes sent by Mrs. Liang. When she arrived at the Princess's Mansion, there were already many palace servants coming in and out, including white silk, white silk, ice cubes, and candles, and they were already rushing to arrange them everywhere.
Suqin went to the doorman to ask, and came back to report Yan's mouth, "Prince Zhong is inside, I'm afraid someone will come to the palace next time. The lord said, "You wait for a moment and he will come to pick him up in person."
Yan Nan nodded, and after waiting for a cup of tea, Liang Zhan, who had already changed into plain clothes, came out to greet him.
"The prince is inside. You can sit with me in the side hall for a while, wait until the inside is cleaned up, and then go and incense sticks first."
"Dad." Yan Nan saw that Liang Zhan's expression was still calm, and she felt a little relieved, so she followed him to the side hall to sit down.
"What the hell is going on? How could the eldest princess?"
Seeing that there was tea on the table, Liang Zhan brought a pot and poured a bowl and drank it all, and exhaled, "I know what you want to ask, it has nothing to do with me."
He looked outside the door and lowered his voice, "I did come to argue with her that day and threatened her to stop dealing with you, but I didn't think about taking her life. I heard that she had drunk a day yesterday, and this morning it was like this."
Yan Nan listened and frowned, "Is it a suicide?"
Liang Zhan nodded, "Confirm."
Yan Nan still felt something was wrong, yes, motivation...
"The eldest princess committed suicide because of your threats and disputes?"
Liang Zhan's eyebrows were twisted into the character "Chuan" and shook his head, "I think it's not true. If she was so angry, why didn't she commit suicide that night?"
“Are there no signs of others appearing?”
"No." Liang Zhan was a little surprised that Yan Mu was so curious about this, "This is the conclusion that Xing Ming and the coroner invited by the prince, after reading it, it was indeed a suicide by drinking poison wine. There was no trace of a second person in the house, except for Madam Feng who came in in the morning. What's more, the Princess's Mansion was strictly guarded and brightly lit outside, so even if outsiders wanted to poison, it would not be easy to get in."
The most important thing is that the Swallow Order is still there, and except for the Swallow Order, the eldest princess has nothing else to make plans.
Although he was a little confused, he had no other clues.
Yan Nan stopped talking. She just wondered if the death of the eldest princess had anything to do with this father, and she also suspected that her mother's current situation was related to the eldest princess. But now that the light is out of the dead, the clue will be cut off.
However, when the eldest princess died, she and Xiao Heng had to push back the matter of her marriage, which was a good thing for her.
After a while, the inside was collected and buried, the hall was simply placed in the incense pot and white silk spirit banner. Yan Nan and Liang Wanru went into the hall to worship three times, then after raising the incense, they retreated to the side.
Yan Nan came to Anyang who was kneeling beside her and bent her knees at her, "Sister, please feel sorry for me."
An Yangsi only noticed her arrival. He raised his eyelids. The usual charm in his phoenix eyes disappeared, all with a cold feeling, staring at Yan Nan empty.
After a while, he was a little slow, and nodded silently, without saying anything.
Yan Nan shivered secretly. Anyang hated her, scolded her, and expelled her from her, and felt that she could understand it.
After all, after the eldest princess died after she was injured by Taoism, Anyang should have seen something. She had a bad temper and was inexplicably disliked her. If something happened like this, it would be strange if she didn't cause trouble for her.
But her unresponsiveness made Yan Nan feel more terrifying than her taking out a knife.
At night, the shadow of the tree covered with white silk on the eldest princess's mansion seemed even more fluttering.
People from the palace were rushing to build a spirit shed. White silk and silk were already everywhere in the courtyard, and white paper was pasted on lanterns, hanging them all over the mansion. The whole courtyard was like a paper-pasteed dark house, reflecting the creepy white light.
Liang Weiqing, Hou of Jingyang, knelt in front of the red coffin wearing mourning clothes, curled up his back, and occasionally twitched his shoulders.
When an old woman brought him tea, he took the teacup, looked up and asked with his nose in his mouth, "Where is the county lord?"
"The county lord just said he was uncomfortable, so he would come back after a while."
Liang Weiqing sighed, her tears seemed to have dried up, and she sat silently in front of the spirit and stopped sobbing.
After the third update, the mourning hall was built and the palace people dispersed, leaving only the sound of chanting scriptures and the rhythmic sound of wooden fish, which were rising and falling in the mansion surrounded by trees.
It's getting late...
When the night was so quiet that everyone almost fell asleep, a figure came out of the backyard of the Princess's Mansion quietly like a ghost. The thin shadow was reflected by the pale lanterns, twisted on the ground like a snake, and passed by.
The figure hid into the laurel forest, and suddenly a low cry in the darkness, "Stop!"
The black figure in the night froze instantly, and a short blue-black blade suddenly appeared on the right hand in the sleeve.
"I know you will definitely come!" The voice under the osmanthus tree was cold. I don't know if it was scared or excited, but it was filled with trembling.
The man slightly retracted his short blade to his cuff, turned around, and looked at the girl who was walking through the shadow, "The county lord knows?"
One corner of his mouth tilted, and he seemed to be smiling.
"I knew it when I was ten years old." An Yang was familiar with his body shape, but it was the first time he saw his true face. This was a man as gloomy and dark as the night. He was no more than thirty years old, with a narrow nose and a cold eyes. He was indeed suitable for appearing at night.
"You, do you love my mother?" After An Yang said this, he felt that he could feed himself a cockroach and swallow it alive.
He was one of the people she hated the most, but for so many years, he was the only comfort in his mother's twisted and ugly life.
At this time, the only one who can help her, is this one, right?
