The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 297 Planting (2)

Jiang Ruan glanced lightly at Princess Heyi.At this time, Fang approached and could see clearly that on the stone table, Princess Heyi buried her face on the table, as if she was asleep, and she couldn't see her face clearly.The closer you get, the more you can smell the strong fragrance emanating from Princess Heyi.

It's normal for noble ladies in the palace to like to use powder and balm, but the more expensive the balm, the more light-scented it is.The lighter the smell, the more elegant it feels, and Princess He Yi's strong smell is almost like those famous brothel actresses.

Luzhu first glanced at Princess Heyi with some doubts, then widened her eyes as if thinking of something, fearing that the two maids would find out, she quickly lowered her head, feeling extremely shocked.How Princess Heyi used such a strong fragrance, she would not have been able to figure it out on weekdays, but listening to Jiang Ruan's words yesterday, it seemed like a breakthrough for her doubts at this moment.The fragrance is too strong, it doesn't look like it's used to dress up, but it seems to be covering something.

cover up what?It must be to cover up the smell of blood and rot!
Luzhu's heart skipped a beat. The dead Princess Heyi sat in this place, and someone posted a message to Jiang Ruan in her name. What purpose could there be? It was clearly a game against Jiang Ruan!

"Girl." Luzhu called out in a hurry.

Jiang Ruan turned her head and glanced at her, the clarity and calmness in her eyes made Luzhu slightly startled, for some reason, Luzhu only felt that Jiang Ruan's glance swept away her uneasiness just now, and slowly calmed down, Thinking that my girl is always strategizing, I am afraid that what happened today has already been expected, so I might as well wait and see what happens.

Although Zi Su didn't understand what was going on, she felt that Princess Heyi's post today was inexplicable, but she had always been calmer, just stared at Jiang Ruan closely, and didn't think about other things.

The two maids stood in place without saying a word, Jiang Ruan raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly: "Is Princess Heyi asleep?"

A court lady who served Princess He Yi nodded and said: "Exactly, the slaves dare not disturb the princess at will."

"Then how about I wake her up?" Jiang Ruan asked with a faint smile.The somewhat unpredictable tone made the two court ladies startled for a moment. They didn't expect Jiang Ruan to answer so readily, which saved them trouble.But when I heard Jiang Ruan's tone for some reason, I always felt uneasy, as if someone was spying on me.The two looked at each other, and both lowered their heads.

Jiang Ruan slowly stretched out her hand, and pressed Princess Heyi's shoulder. As soon as she touched it, it was really stiff. A smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she suddenly pushed Princess Heyi back.

With a sound of "bang", Princess He Yi fell down from the stone bench, rolled over on the ground, and lay face up on the ground.At this time, it was clear that Princess Heyi had a delicate dagger stuck in her abdomen, and the blood on it was bright, covering up the original traces.Princess Heyi's eyes were wide open, her lips were pale, and she had obviously been dead for a long time.

Luzhu was startled because she was mentally prepared before, but Zisu cried out in fright, Princess Heyi's eyes happened to be facing Jiang Ruan, as if she had experienced great pain and disbelief before she died, There was hatred and fear in the eyes, like a ghost seeking his life.

"Princess!" The two maids shouted in unison, their complexions suddenly changed, and one of them pointed at Jiang Ruan and said, "You actually killed the princess!"

Jiang Ruan was neither happy nor angry, and said calmly: "Oh, how do you see it?"

From just now to the present, when she suddenly saw the body of Princess Heyi, she didn't change the slightest expression. If she was not thinking deeply, she had already expected what would happen.No matter which one it is, it is terrifying, but Jiang Ruan's nonchalant attitude is even more confusing.The two maids were terrified, but they had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue acting according to the previous script.One of them said angrily: "Princess Hong'an is so cruel. The servants and servants saw with their own eyes that Princess Hong'an and Princess Heyi had a dispute. Princess Hong'an killed her. Even in front of His Majesty, Princess Hong'an also killed someone." murderer!"

"Did you see it with your own eyes?" Jiang Ruan smiled lowly: "There are two of you, but I also have two people here. What you saw with your own eyes is that I killed Heyi. I am afraid that the two maids saw something strange. It's different."

After the initial fear, Zisu also recognized the situation, and was very angry when she heard that the maid was talking nonsense with her eyes open and wanted to frame Jiang Ruan.Hearing what Jiang Ruan said right now, he immediately reacted, and said: "Exactly, the two sisters spoke so strangely. When our girl came, the princess had already died."

"That's true." Luzhu said: "The two sisters have no problem with their two mouths, and our three pairs of eyes are also right."

The palace maid did not expect that Jiang Ruan was still so calm at this moment, and even thought of having a verbal argument with them. She didn't know what to say for a while, so at this moment, she only heard a voice from behind: "Jun The Lord is really courageous, and the enemy is talking and laughing in front of him, which makes this hall also admire him."

Jiang Ruan turned around, only to see a person coming from outside the corridor, dressed in simple brown clothes as usual, who is it if it's not the fourth prince Ye Lang?

Although he didn't catch the person behind it, at least this trip was not all fruitless.Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "Fourth Highness."

"Princess, there are not only two people now." Ye Lang smiled very kindly and gently, with some joy from the bottom of his heart: "This palace also witnessed the process of the princess's murder, even if the words of the two maids are not enough Weight, don’t know if the words of this hall can be counted?”

Both Luzhu and Zisu stared at Ye Lang bitterly, even if he was the prince who was no longer favored in the palace, with his status and status, if Ye Lang really came out to testify, Jiang Ruan would not have the upper hand at all.Especially now that Jiang Xin's whereabouts are unknown, many people in the court are watching Jiang Ruan's every move, hoping that she will make a mistake. If she is really charged with this crime, everyone will step on it. Standing up again, I'm afraid it will be very difficult.

"Your Highness, you might as well get straight to the point." Jiang Ruan sighed: "It's really tiring to talk in circles like this."

Ye Lang nodded: "This hall also thinks so. This hall believes that the princess was just impulsive, not intentional. In fact, the eighth younger brother has admired the princess for a long time. Since the princess is the eighth brother's sweetheart, this hall will not Too much embarrassing the princess."

Jiang Ruan didn't speak, just looked at Ye Lang quietly and smiled.Ye Lang seemed a little embarrassed when she didn't answer Ye Lang's words, but Ye Lang wasn't really what he looked like on the surface, he was very vulnerable when people talked about it.In some matters, Ye Lang is more persistent than Jiang Dan, and he is also much less shy.Even though he was coldly received by Jiang Ruan, he continued without hesitation: "Although this matter has developed to the current situation, it is not completely hopeless. If there is anyone in the palace who can keep the princess, Then there is only the eighth brother. If the princess can get the protection of the eighth brother, it will not be difficult to solve this matter perfectly."
