Chapter 2542 Getting Cuter and Cuter
"Prince Tiantian and his companions came at the hour of Hai. At that time, I happened to look at the hourglass and prepared to record the time when the princess went to bed. About an hour later, the two left. After they left, I watched the princess fall asleep. When it was almost the hour of Chou, I went to the compartment. As for the thunder I heard, it should have been the hour of Yin. I am not sure, I just know that I didn't sleep for long." A Lu thought about it and said.
Gu Xin nodded, sorted out the time in her mind, and then looked at A Yin who had been silent.
"A Yin, what about you? Have you been following A Lu?" Gu Xin asked.
A Yin, who was called by name, suddenly raised her head and looked at Gu Xin, her eyes were a little confused, then she came to her senses, realized that it was wrong to look directly at the noble, and lowered her head again.
"I followed Ah Lu. I went outside to pour more medicine only after the princess knocked over the medicine bowl for the first time. After that, I slept soundly and didn't hear the thunder. Ah Lu called me up from behind." Ah Yin said in a low voice.
Although she looked calmer than Ah Lu, her voice was too soft to be heard without careful listening.
"Ah Lu, go out and ask your Lord Jiang to invite the eldest prince Tian Tian. If he doesn't want to, let my father, Lord Gu, send someone to invite him. I'll wait here." Gu Xin thought for a while and ordered.
Ah Lu withdrew.
Ah Yin still stood there very calmly, with her head down. Gu Xin glanced at her and ignored her, but went to the bedside to see Zheng Qiu.
"What's wrong?" Gu Xin asked.
"Third Miss, help me." Zheng Qiu said.
Gu Xin saw what Zheng Qiu was doing and picked up the plate next to him very skillfully. Zheng Qiu took something out of Princess Nanlin's stomach and put it on the plate.
Gu Xin has worked with Zheng Qiu for several times, and now she can fully face these things.
She looked at the things on the plate, which were a little black, and asked: "Is it poisoned?"
Zheng Qiu nodded: "There are signs of poisoning. But the body does not show it on the surface. We have to see what is on the plate."
Gu Xin glanced at the body: "Anything else?"
Zheng Qiu nodded: "She ate a lot. But most of it was normal."
Gu Xin asked again: "What about the time of death?"
Zheng Qiu said: "It should be around the time of Chou."
Gu Xin pursed her lips.
In other words, when Ah Lu watched Princess Nanlin fall asleep, she was not dead yet, but died in her sleep.
If she was poisoned, there is a time for the poison to take effect, which makes sense.
Soon, Zheng Qiu finished the examination and sewed up the body of the deceased.
The two of them gathered in the plate and dug around, but they didn't know what kind of poison it was, whether it was poison in the medicine or poison in the food.
It was already dawn.
Outside, the eldest prince Tian Tian was brought in by the deputy general of Jia Cang State.
Gu Xin raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Shouxin. Gu Shouxin glanced at her. Gu Xin understood that look without saying anything. Her father must be saying, do you still need me to hire people? Aren’t you looking down on me?
Gu Xin was happy. Her father became cuter as he got older. He used to be so fierce.
“Princess Xinxin, why did you ask me to come? I wanted to come before, but didn’t the people of Nanlin stop me from seeing Long Zhuer for the last time?” The eldest prince Tiantian complained.
