The prince longs for me every night after mastering thought-reading

Chapter 115 Only the dead don’t lie



I heard a woman crying last night. It turned out to be Chuntao who was crying. Who did I think she was? "

"No, it's so noisy that I can't even sleep."

Chang Liangdi listened calmly and did not say anything.

When Concubine Xu heard that Chuntao was dead, she thought of Xiao Fuzi who came out of Xiyun Pavilion early in the morning. Xiao Fuzi was still locked up. If it weren't for Chuntao, she would have forgotten about it.

Shen Mingzhu glanced at the body that was far away and covered with white cloth. She held up her handkerchief and said sadly: "Sister, Chuntao was from Xiyun Pavilion early in the morning. You were promoted to Liangdi and there were not enough people to serve you, so I let Chuntao back. , Chuntao was fine and suddenly died yesterday?"

Shen Chu has been a salty fish for more than ten years, but where has he seen dead people?

After she got up, Xiao Guizi and Xiao Anzi covered the body with a cloth.

She didn't know the specific cause of death.

Shen Chu said lightly: "I don't know why Chuntao is crying at Shen Liangyuan's place and wants to go back to Xiyun Pavilion?"

Shen Mingzhu said with a sad face: "I have to ask my sister. I do good things, but I didn't expect Chuntao to end up like this. If I had known, I wouldn't have let her back yesterday."

Concubine Xu didn't deal with Xiao and Shen Liangdi, and when she heard what she said, she felt uncomfortable.

"Shen Liangyuan, what you mean is that Chuntao was killed by people in Xiyun Pavilion?"

When Shen Mingzhu saw Concubine Xu coming, she tried to stay as far away from her as possible. She stood next to Chang Liangdi.

"Concubine Xu, this is not what I said. I'm just curious. How can such a good person be gone?"

After Shen Mingzhu finished speaking, she looked at Shen Chuwei again, questioning in her tone: "Could it be that my sister said something to Chuntao that made her unable to think about it?"

Shen Chu said softly: "I haven't even seen Chuntao's face, so how can I talk to her?"

"Then how could Chuntao be fine and then disappear? I saw her yesterday and she was still fine. If someone hadn't said something, she wouldn't have committed suicide." Shen Mingzhu sighed regretfully after speaking.

At this time, Liu Xi's high-pitched voice came from the door: "His Royal Highness has arrived."

Xiao Jinyan strode in wearing black court clothes.

Shen Chuwei and others wished His Highness good health and said, "Your Highness, may you be blessed and safe."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at everyone and said, "Get up."

He glanced at Chuntao, who was covered with a white cloth not far away, and told Wei Chi, "Go and check the cause of death."

"As ordered." Wei Chi took the order and strode towards the corpse.

Xiao Jinyan looked at Shen Chuwei again, "What's going on?"

Shen Chuwei told the whole story one by one, "Your Highness, this is what happened."

"Your Highness, Chuntao was originally a maid in Xiyun Pavilion, and later came to work for me. Because my sister was promoted to Liangdi, I was afraid that there were not enough people to serve, so I sent Chuntao back. Yesterday, Chuntao left Lanyue Palace happily. I never thought that people would be gone after one night.”

Shen Mingzhu just wanted to blame Shen Chuwei for Chuntao's death and let His Highness know that she was a vicious-hearted person. How could she still be favored?

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Mingzhu coldly, and he could see through her hypocrisy and scheming at a glance. He also guessed that it was her fault. Worried about not having a chance, she rushed to the door to deliver it.

"It is possible that Chuntao has not gone to Xiyun Pavilion since she left. Shen Liangdi's promotion to Liangdi did not happen in the past two days. Why did you suddenly think of letting Chuntao return to Xiyun Pavilion?"

"Your Highness, I and Shen Liangdi are biological sisters. I was grounded a few days ago and I was not feeling well. I just thought about it. I didn't expect it to be like this. Normally, Chuntao is also a neat maid. Otherwise, I would not have thought of letting Chuntao go back to serve my sister." Shen Mingzhu said so deeply that she almost burst into tears.

Xiao Jinyan listened to Shen Mingzhu's hypocritical words and didn't even want to look at her. He looked at Wei Chi not far away, waiting for his autopsy results.

When Chang Liangdi saw that His Highness was silent, she thought that she must be protecting Shen Chuwei. She stepped forward and heard the voice: "Your Highness, there must be something wrong with Chuntao's death. Your Highness needs to find out."

Xiao Jinyan said coldly: "I will find out who is behind this, I will punish you severely!"

Shen Mingzhu subconsciously clenched the handkerchief in her hand with a guilty conscience.

After Wei Chi finished the inspection, he strode over and reported, "Your Highness, Chuntao died of poisoning an hour ago. There were no obvious injuries on his body."

Shen Chuwei felt something strange when she heard the words. She turned around and walked towards the body to take a look.

Xiao Jinyan saw her and called out: "What are you doing?"

Shen Chuwei didn't hide anything, "I want to take a look."

"What's there to see about a dead person?" Xiao Jinyan was afraid that Shen Chuwei would have nightmares at night if he saw it. After all, death can look like anything.

Shen Chuwei said seriously: "I want to ask her how her life is in Lanyue Palace."

"Sister, are you okay? Chuntao is dead. I can't answer your question." Shen Mingzhu looked worried on the surface, but sneered in her heart. A dead person can't answer your question. Chuntao died in Xiyun Pavilion. You It cannot be separated.

Shen Chuwei said: "Only dead people can't lie."

Xiao Jinyan stood up and said softly to Shen Chu: "I will go with you to have a look."

Shen Chu slightly arched his eyebrows and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

The two walked side by side towards the body.

Shen Mingzhu couldn't help complaining when she saw it. Is there something wrong with Your Highness's brain? Do you actually believe that Shen Chuwei said that dead people can't lie? I want to see how the dead can talk?

Chang Liangdi grabbed her handkerchief and looked at the backs of the two people in front of her, feeling full of reluctance.

Shen Chuwei came to the body. She grabbed Xiao Jinyan's sleeve with one hand, fearing that she would suddenly see the horrific death scene.

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and glanced at the hand that was tightly grasping his sleeve. His eyes moved up and landed on that delicate little face. "If you are afraid, stop looking."

"Your Highness, I'm just going to take a look." Shen Chuwei was already ready and said to Wei Chi, "Open it."

Wei Chi squatted in front of the body and lifted up the white cloth with one hand.

Shen Chu took a quick glance and committed suicide by taking poison. The death scene was not that terrifying, but it still made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"alright."

When Wei Chi heard this, he immediately covered himself with a white cloth.

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and asked, "Did you see anything?"

Shen Chu said slightly: "Your Highness, Chuntao used to be much more plump than Chunxi. Now Chuntao is much thinner than before. At a glance, it is obvious that it is caused by insufficient food for a long time. In addition, her face is yellow-gray, and the yellowish face is due to malnutrition. This shows that she was not living well during this period, and she did not have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. "

Hedinghong is a high-grade poison that the maid cannot buy even with money.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense. I didn't treat Chuntao badly when she was in Lanyue Palace. It was she who said she needed to lose weight that made her lose weight."

After Shen Mingzhu finished speaking, she looked at the prince and said, "Your Highness, everything I said is true. I dare not deceive Your Highness."
