Chapter 608: Grass Uprooted
Yujie felt relieved when she realized that only her legs and arms had been torn and that medicine had been applied. His Royal Highness should have given the medicine to the young lady himself. However, he still took care of the safety of men and women and did not help the young lady change her clothes. , I was appreciative and happy for the young lady.
Of course she knew that her young lady had been promised to King Chen by the Queen Mother. Although it was excessive at this time, it was also because King Chen was worried about his young lady!
After thinking about this clearly, Yu Jie breathed a sigh of relief, took out a piece of clothing from the closet, and carefully changed it for Shao Wanru.
This yard was prepared by the eldest princess for her young lady. It has been prepared for almost three years. It is also filled with the young lady’s clothes, which the eldest princess prepared for her. They are not only numerous but also very beautiful.
Knowing Shao Wanru's liking, Yujie chose a piece of light and comfortable clothes and changed the torn clothes for Shao Wanru. Even though she changed Shao Wanru's clothes, Shao Wanru didn't wake up, which shows that she was really Tired, Yujie became more careful with her movements.
She also had injuries on her body, but she had grown up in Jingxin Temple since she was a child. She would also collect medicine with Master Mingqiu on weekdays. I don’t know how many scratches she had suffered. Although she and Shao Wanru were hanging on a tree branch before, in fact, There weren't many cuts, and they weren't as deep as those on Shao Wanru's body.
Thinking about how her young lady had never suffered such an injury when she was raised in a boudoir in the past, Yu Jie's hands felt very distressed. Both Miss Qin and Miss Shao were vicious people, but this time, let's see how dog bites dog. …
This night is destined to be an unusual night, especially the place where the incident occurred at the foot of Yu Hui'an has now been taken over by people from the Ministry of Punishment.
Because it was getting late now, I wanted to check everything, but couldn't find anything for a while. The people from the Ministry of Punishment left a few people here, but they didn't check for traces immediately. Many people who saw it said that it must be a slippery road. , it was the way down the mountain again, and something like this happened just because the coachman was slacking off. Although it was an accident, no one else could blame him.
As for what the maid said, she was so crazy that of course it couldn't be true.
Few people think this is true.
The eldest princess of Ruian came here at this time. When the eldest princess's people came to pick up Shao Wanru before, the eldest princess didn't come, but this time she came with a large group of people aggressively, and there were still people in the whole tea shop. The people chatting immediately stopped talking.
When the people from the Criminal Department saw that the driver was the eldest princess, they hurriedly found someone to come over. The eldest princess looked up from the car and saw that it was Qiu Yu.
"I wonder what the eldest princess means by coming here at this time?" Qiu Yu said cautiously after saluting.
After he and Shao Wanru met privately, he asked the department for a job to come and stay overnight so that he could know the progress of this case as soon as possible in the future.
"Master Qiu, I want to go to the mountain to explore the mountain. Why did something like this happen to my granddaughter's carriage? I heard that there were people going down the mountain before, but nothing happened!" The eldest princess sat tall in the carriage, She looked at Qiu Yu coldly and said, Qiu Yu is the youngest son of Uncle Li Yang, so she has naturally seen him before.
"Princess Princess, it's so late at this time, so you'd better not read it. If something happens, I won't be able to resist it!" Qiu Yu said with a bitter smile.
"You don't have to bear it. I will bear it myself. I just want to see who Zhuo Zhuo has offended. I can't tolerate her so much, and yet I have secretly plotted this kind of evil plan!" Princess Ruian said sternly, supporting her. The woman next to her got off the carriage and looked at Qiu Yu coldly with her hands behind her back.
Qiu Yu began to sweat on his forehead, but he didn't bother to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead at this moment: "Princess, this may be an accident, no one wants this, and now this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly. , It’s wrong for Fifth Miss to rush down the mountain at this time, why..."
"Does that mean that Zhuo Zhuo is seeking his own death, and it has nothing to do with others?" The eldest princess sneered, her eyes falling on Qiu Yu with a bit of coldness, her aura was astonishing.
"Princess, I don't mean to be a minister like this. We have to wait until the Ministry of Punishment finds out the details tomorrow before we can give the princess an answer." Although Qiu Yu was afraid, she couldn't allow him not to say anything at the moment, so he could only hold on. scalp said.
"We can't find out until tomorrow. It's too late. I want to find out now! I want to find out whether it was the eldest lady from the Qin Mansion or the eldest lady from the Shao Mansion who wanted to kill Zhuo Zhuo, or the two of them conspired together!" The eldest princess of Ruian said coldly, turned around and straightened her back and walked towards the mountain intersection.
A large group of maids and the mother-in-law followed behind.
Seeing this formation, Qiu Yu knew that he couldn't stop her even if she wanted to, so she could only wave her hand to signal several people from the Criminal Department to follow and accompany Princess Ruian up the mountain.
He couldn't let the eldest princess Ruian talk nonsense. In fact, he had asked someone to check before and nothing was found. Naturally, he didn't think there would be anything at this time.
Therefore, I am not nervous at all. No matter how powerful the eldest princess is, the Xingguo Duke's mansion is not bad, and it is impossible to let the eldest princess talk nonsense. As for the Qin mansion, it is certainly not among Qiu Yu's considerations.
Some idle people saw them all going up, and they followed suit to watch the fun.
The people brought by the eldest princess placed many lights around, illuminating the scene as if it were daytime. A woman came forward to check, and the wheel marks were obvious. She just rushed out without hesitation or worry. There are no other traces.
Several attentive women in the eldest princess's house started to check it out. Half an hour later, all the women shook their heads and reported to the eldest princess that there was really nothing suspicious about it. Just such a wheel seal, and suddenly, Rushing down and deepening, it can be seen that the speed has skyrocketed here. This is the main reason for sliding down the cliff.
It has nothing to do with anyone else!
Qiu Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the eldest princess Ruian would be rude and make trouble, and there were no senior officials from the Ministry of Punishment here. He was afraid that he would not be able to suppress the arrogant eldest princess. But at the moment, the eldest princess Ruian had no idea. After checking, there is nothing suspicious, and we can't make trouble even if we want to.
But before Qiu Yu's heart was completely at ease, he saw a woman running to the eldest princess in a hurry, holding something that looked like a grass in her hand, "Princess eldest daughter, why are these grasses pulled out by their roots?" Yes, even if the wheels press down on the grass, it can’t be pulled out by the roots!”
The eldest princess Ruian took a piece of grass from her mother-in-law's hand with a cold face, frowned and looked at it, and the people around her also looked at the eldest princess's hand under the light.
A very ordinary piece of grass, just like ordinary grass, does not look outstanding. There is mud on this piece of grass, and there are marks on the mud. It is obvious that the wheels of the carriage at that time should have pressed against this piece of grass. past.
The roots of the grass are not short, and there are a few bruised leaves, but the roots and stems are intact.
"Yes, this wheel is rolling over very fast. It is possible that the grass will be crushed. How can it be uprooted? This is unreasonable!" Someone looked at it carefully and couldn't help but said.
"The grass can be broken or crushed, but it cannot be uprooted!" Someone else affirmed.
These people are all traveling and have experienced many things. After they said this, many people nodded, thinking that this grass was suspicious.
"Princess, this slave also found a piece of grass like this, and it was not broken up or uprooted!" Another woman picked up a piece of grass and said.
Then I picked up a few more grasses. All the grasses looked the same, and they all had marks on them. It could be guaranteed that the wheels had indeed crushed them, but none of them were broken. Only a few pieces of grass were crushed, but the roots came out of the soil. Pulled it out.
This phenomenon is very abnormal. Qiu Yu only relaxed and raised her head again. If this matter did not slide down normally, it might involve the Xingguo Duke's Mansion. He had promised Miss Shao before that this matter would not happen. It was hard for him to explain what was involved in her.
He took two steps forward and squeezed to the side of the eldest princess. Qiu Yu said with a smile: "Princess, eldest princess, it's just a few grasses. It's nothing. Maybe this kind of grass is like this. It has good softness but is easy to break." Uproot the grass, and when the wheels run over it, the weak roots of the grass will be uprooted!"
The eldest princess Ruian glanced at Qiu Yu coldly: "Since this matter has been sent to the Ministry of Justice for filing, it naturally means that it is not a small matter. My granddaughter almost died. Even if this matter is brought to the imperial court, I believe the emperor will not He will give me a speech, and he will never give me a very annoying reason like Master Qiu."
"Princess Princess, this matter has not been decided yet..." Qiu Yu explained in detail with a red face.
"Okay, I won't tell you anymore. I have to go back to take care of my granddaughter. She hasn't woken up yet. As for these few grasses, I will hand them over to the Ministry of Punishments tomorrow." Princess Ruian handed over a few grasses. The grass he found was picked up by someone, and he turned around and led a large group of people towards the tea shop.
The carriage was waiting outside the tea shop.
After the eldest princess and the others passed through the tea shop, they got on the carriage. The carriage turned around and drove away, leaving only a bored man and the people guarding the place from the Ministry of Punishment.
"Sir, what should I do?" A person from the Ministry of Justice came over and asked Qiu Yu, who was in a daze.
"Have someone monitor the scene. No one can come in or out at will!" Qiu Yu calmed down and gritted his teeth. Before the matter was clear, the scene could not be disturbed at will.
But the person just now was the eldest princess Ruian, and it was done under his nose, so it was not considered a dereliction of duty on his part...
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning this incident caused an uproar in the entire capital.
The reason for such commotion is not because of the previous vigorously calling Miss Shao Wu a "disaster". I didn't expect that just a short time ago, something happened to Miss Shao Wu again. Thinking about the big fuss before, The "disaster" incident even prompted the emperor to take action. Looking at the sudden descent, he almost lost his life.
Could it be that someone really framed Miss Shao Wu?
Princess Ruian's people arrived at the Punishment Department early in the morning, and they also beat the big drum at the entrance of the Punishment Department, bringing a message from Princess Ruian and a few pieces of grass found under the wheel marks.
The chief officer of the criminal officer had just come to the Yamen and was disturbed by this incident. However, the other party was the eldest princess. They could not do anything. They could only check the scene again in a hurry and picked up two more grasses on the cliff. return.
Since then, these strange grasses have attracted everyone's attention, but no one knows what is abnormal about these grasses, and things have become deadlocked.
But the next day, someone suddenly came to the door of the Punishment Department...
