The Emperor's eyes drooped as he tried to suppress the anger in his heart. Then, he coldly said, "I'll give you three incense sticks of time. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer after three incense sticks of time, I'll punish you as well!"
Ning Shu bowed and said, "This little girl obeys."
After temporarily dealing with the Emperor, Ning Shu turned around and walked towards the crying Qi Family. Madam Qi had already fainted from crying. Qi Daren was nearly fifty years old and had lost a son and a daughter in succession. At this moment, he was extremely sad and his eyes were filled with tears. His chest was filled with anger and he wanted to vent it on everyone present. He wanted them all to be buried with his precious daughter! However, he blankly looked around and found that other than his own sister, the Concubine Qi who had always been the pride of the Qi family but had used a cup of holy water to burn his youngest daughter to death, there was no one else he could blame.
This huge anger and confusion made his blood boil. His throat was hoarse and he couldn't say a single word. He vaguely remembered that not long ago, that delicate and tender little baby was sent out of the delivery room. That soft little bundle wrapped in swaddling clothes was sent to him.
He had several sons before and had always strictly adhered to the Qi Family's ancestral teachings. This caused them to respect and fear him, but they didn't get close to him. Only this little girl, who had been crying when the midwife brought her to him, smiled as soon as she saw him. From then on, he held her in the palm of his hand, afraid she would fall. He held her in his mouth, afraid she would melt. He couldn't wait to send the best things in the world to her. Therefore, even though he clearly knew that her temperament was a bit too spoiled and domineering, he still couldn't bear to discipline her. He only thought that with him and the Qi Family's plaque, nothing big would happen.
But who knew that in the end, his baby would still die. She would die in the hands of his own family. Qi Daren's eyes darkened and his legs staggered. He almost fell down and was supported by the servants. In his dry throat, the only sound he could make was the sound of weeping.
Because her death was too tragic, in order to preserve the last trace of dignity, Qi Daren ordered Mother Hui to quickly find a white cloth to cover her.
When Ning Shu pushed her way through the crowd to examine the corpse, Lord Qi said in a hoarse voice, "Do you really have a conjecture in your heart, or are you just beating around the bush? If it's the latter, don't touch my daughter! "
Right now, the Qi family was in a dilemma. His daughter, Yun Ying, had died a tragic death before she was married. If her body was dissected in public, he wouldn't even be able to keep his face after death. How would he be able to see his daughter in the Yellow Springs in the future? It would be fine if the culprit was found, but if there was no result in the end, then the blame would be pushed onto Concubine Qi. This would be a fatal blow to the Qi family that had already been deeply cut twice.
"Lord Qi, don't worry. My daughter wouldn't dare to commit the crime of deceiving the monarch. In a moment, this humble girl will ask the surrounding people to avoid arousing suspicion, leaving only a few female servants as assistants to roughly examine the surface of Fourth Young Miss' body. We will definitely not disgrace Fourth Young Miss. "
Lord Qi opened his mouth silently, but in the end, he turned his face away. "Then, go ahead and investigate … If you find out who harmed my Yu 'er and my Qi family in the end, I will definitely crush that person! Corpse! Ten thousand! Duan! "
Ning Shu gave a few simple instructions, and a few maidservants immediately went to find a few wide cloths to surround the corpse, separating it from the view of others. Then, she led Forsythia in.
It had to be said that Qi Juanyu had really died a tragic death. As soon as the white cloth was lifted, Forsythia subconsciously turned her face away.
After being burned by the raging fire, the clothes on her body had almost been burned to ashes, leaving only a few tattered pieces stuck to the corpse. Her skin and flesh had long been burned and stuck together into a piece of charcoal, emitting a suffocating smell.
Looking at the horrifying scene in front of her, Ning Shu let out a soft sigh in her heart.
Not long ago, in Weiyang Palace, Qi Juanyu's appearance when she found out that she had been selected seemed to still be in front of Ning Shu.
At that time, a crimson blush immediately dyed her cheeks, her fingers entangled, and she was so excited that she almost shed tears. She used the most expectant eyes in the world to look at her sweetheart walking towards her from behind the screen. She did not have her usual arrogance, nor did she have her usual arrogance and cruelty. What was left was only a young and infatuated girl, wholeheartedly infatuated with her sweetheart.
In just a few short days, she had become like this. Was this really God's punishment? Perhaps in a sense, it was the cycle of the heavens, and retribution was not good. Back then, she had planted the poisonous seed with her own hands, and in the end, it bore the evil fruit, and it was on her own body …
