In the afternoon, as soon as Yunshang had lunch, Li Qianmo walked in and said in a low voice, "Master, Princess Rui's body has entered the city, and my subordinates are going to bring Wu Zuo to the palace for an autopsy immediately. Do you want to go with me?"

Yun Chang nodded, "Since the autopsy is going to be done, of course we have to go." Then she ordered Qianyin to call the secret guards to tidy up her disguise. Yun Chang looked in the bronze mirror, but her eyes were still Some flaws can be seen, but if she pretends to be Li Qianmo's attendant, she only needs to lower her head, which is fine.

Yunshang asked Qianyin to clean her hands, made them rough, and took a pair of big shoes to tie her feet firmly, then nodded slightly, stood up, "Let's go."

When Li Qianmo and Yun Chang walked out of the inner courtyard, they saw two sages already waiting by the side. The two swans were carrying a cloth bag on their backs. The bag was handed to Yun Shang. Li Qianmo frowned, but Yun Shang quickly picked it up, and signaled Li Qianmo with his eyes not to care, Li Qianmo raised his hand, covered his mouth and coughed lightly, to cover up his expression of something wrong.

Li Qianmo got into the carriage, and Yun Shang walked behind the carriage with the two assistants. Yun Shang watched Li Qianmo poke his head out of the window several times along the way, and all of them focused on Yun Shang intentionally or unintentionally. Yun Shang knew that he was worried about himself, after all, he was indeed a noble person, and he seldom walked like this.

However, she was afraid that she would have to find a chance to remind Li Qianmo that since she had disguised herself, he should only treat her as the person she is now. If he continues to look like this, he may be spotted sooner or later when he enters the palace.

At the gate of the palace, Yun Chang hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Qianmo get out of the carriage, whispered her request in his ear, and Li Qianmo quickly agreed. After entering the palace, she really didn't look down on her. Yun Chang is on her body.

The fake Princess Rui's body was parked in the meeting hall, and when Yun Shang followed Li Qianmo in, she could smell a rotting corpse, which was very pungent. There were quite a few people standing in the hall, Su Qi, the Seventh Prince, and the Duke's wife were also there, as was her butler of Prince Rui's residence.

Li Qianmo went forward to salute Xia Huanyu, Xia Huanyu called Pingshen, frowned and said to Li Qianmo, "Let me take a look, the corpse in this palace is Princess Rui herself."

Li Qianmo responded, and turned to look at the two coffins. The two coffins hurriedly walked towards the coffin containing the corpse. Yun Shang also hurriedly followed with two cloth bags on her back, and untied the two cloth bags. When I got down, I opened it in front of everyone. There were all kinds of tools in the cloth bag, including tweezers, a small hammer, wooden sticks, silver needles, and some things that Yun Shang couldn't name.

The two foremen each took their tools and began to rush away. Yun Chang stood up, and her eyes fell on the corpse in the coffin.

The woman was wearing a water pink skirt, from the skirt to the jewelry that Yun Shang was familiar with. Yun Chang thought, there are indeed these things in her mansion, but she doesn't know if they were stolen by people in the mansion or imitated. The corpse's hair was not combed, and the hair was scattered, covering the coffin. The face was as Yun Shang thought, it had rotted a lot, but the general appearance could barely be recognized. Yun Chang looked at it for a while, and had to say that the people behind the scenes had given up a lot of thought. Looking at it like this, they looked very similar to Yun Chang. There is no disguise, if it is disguised, it will be obvious that the corpse is rotten.

"Five feet two inches in length, wounded by a sharp weapon, pierced by an arrow in the chest and died thirteen days ago, without disguise, with well-maintained skin, should live in a wealthy family all year round, with feet six inches long, and good-looking There is no disguise." Wu Zuo looked at it for a long time, and slowly said the conclusions one by one.

"According to what you say, this person is really Princess Rui?" Xia Huanyu frowned, his expression a little cold.

Wu Zuo hastily said, "I can only confirm that this woman's appearance has not been changed. She is five feet two inches tall, has good skin quality, and her feet are six inches long, and the time of death is consistent with the time when Princess Rui disappeared. Others cannot be released yet. In conclusion, I'm afraid it needs someone in Prince Rui's residence to confirm, it's better to be someone who is close to Princess Rui, and it's best to know that Princess Rui's height and feet are long, so you can know."

Xia Huanyu squinted his eyes and remained silent for a moment, then looked at the housekeeper of Prince Rui's residence, "Does Steward Luo understand?"

The steward hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Your servant understands, but the concubine never likes to be served by too many people, she has always been served by Miss Qianyin personally, but now Miss Qianyin is also missing, the slave really doesn't know , who can confirm these things."

"It's easy to talk about long feet. You can find out by looking for a pair of shoes worn by Princess Rui, but with this height..." The Seventh Prince was silent for a moment, then looked at the coffin in a low voice, "Princess Rui should also often make clothes, right? Just look at the measurements for Princess Rui when making the clothes and you will know."

Hearing the words, the butler quickly responded, "Yes, the servant will go and prepare."

Xia Huanyu nodded, and the butler left in a hurry. Yun Chang lowered her head, looked at her own toes, stood aside silently, and then heard the Duke's wife say, "Princess Rui is just a girl, yet someone is so vicious and wants her name every day! I can't wait to see you." , Skinned that murderer!" Gritting his teeth, he seemed to be furious.

It was only then that Yunshang suddenly remembered that she had sent letters to Ning Qian and Luo Qingyan, but she had forgotten about the Duke's Mansion. Mrs. Guogong loved her very much, and it must be difficult to accept her death .

Xia Huanyu sighed lightly, "Mrs. Duchess, don't be angry. It's not yet confirmed that this is Princess Rui. That maid is shrewd. She definitely won't die so easily."

Upon hearing this, the Duke's wife stomped on her crutches, and then said nothing.

It was the Seventh Prince who spoke, "After learning about this matter, I sent people to Na Qilan Town to investigate. The owner of the only inn in Na Qilan Town said that Princess Rui lived in their inn. After one night, because of her outstanding appearance, the memory was very deep. Princess Rui also left the inn early in the morning on the day she was killed, and she never saw her again. Others in the town said that after the murder of Princess Rui, the second On the same day, someone went door to door in the town to inquire about the whereabouts of Princess Rui, and said that it was their master who was assassinated in the mountains half a day away from Qilan Town and disappeared. The minister sent people to the mountain I searched, but there are many traces of fighting in the mountain, but it seems that they have been cleaned up, and the corpses have disappeared.”

Yun Shang frowned when she heard the words, she had heard that people were looking for her from house to house when she was waiting for Qian Yin to wake up in Qilan Town, but she never expected that they were still looking for her in the name of her subordinates of.

No one spoke in the hall for a while, Yun Shang heard the Duke's wife's crutches fall heavily to the ground.

After a while, the butler came back out of breath again and said, "I got it, this is the size that the princess measured when she made clothes and shoes last time." After saying that, he offered the paper in his hands with both hands.

Seeing this, Liu Wen'an quickly took the paper from the housekeeper and presented it to Xia Huanyu. Xia Huanyu looked down and frowned. That's exactly what it said.

Yun Chang curled her lips coldly, now she is sure that there may not be spies in her house, but there must be spies among the people who make clothes for her.

Xia Huanyu's voice fell silent for a long time, and no one in the hall spoke. Xia Huanyu sighed, frowned and said, "That's all, let's prepare for the funeral."

Yun Chang quietly raised her eyes and glanced at the expressions of the people in the palace, and saw that the Seventh Prince frowned and did not speak. Su Qi's face was also full of sadness, but the corners of his mouth were raised, and there was a bit of gloating in his eyes, and Only Mrs. Guo, with a livid complexion and pale lips, stood up abruptly after a while, but swayed, and managed to stand still after a while, "My wife is not feeling well, please allow my wife to leave first." After speaking, he turned around and left the meeting hall.

Xia Huanyu sighed again, and said to Liu Wen'an, "Order, Princess Rui is gone, and Prince Rui is not here, so let's send some people from the palace to assist Prince Rui's residence with the funeral." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Li Qianmo again Said, "Li Aiqing, you all step back first."

Li Qianmo responded quickly, Yun Shang stepped forward and packed up the two cloth bags on the ground, and followed Li Qianmo and the two assistants out of the meeting hall. After leaving the palace, Li Qianmo let the two assistants leave on their own .

Seeing that the carriage of the Duke's Mansion hadn't left, Yunshang approached Li Qianmo and said something in a low voice. Li Qianmo pondered for a moment, then responded, turned around and walked towards the carriage of the Duke's Mansion, cupping his hands towards the people inside. , "Is the Duke's wife here? Li Qianmo, the official of the Ministry of Punishment, I have something to see."

The window of the carriage was opened, and Yun Chang saw Mrs. Guo sitting inside, with a cold expression on her face, before she opened her mouth for a while, "What's the matter, Mr. Li?"

Li Qianmo cupped his hands, and said in a loud voice, "I just heard the news of Princess Rui's death. It must be very sad to remember the Duke's wife who nursed Prince Rui's grandmother. Please, Mrs. Guo's condolences."

The words are a bit blunt, but they are barely reasonable. While he was speaking loudly, Yunshang moved to the window and whispered to the Duke and Duchess, "Grandmother, it's me..."

Mrs. Guo was stunned, and looked at Li Qianmo, who had been speaking loudly all the time, only to hear him still saying, "Princess Rui is well educated, gentle and generous, but she is a beauty..."

Mrs. Guo turned her eyes to the side, and finally saw Yunshang.

Yun Chang opened her mouth and said, "Grandmother, it's me. I'm not dead. The corpse in the palace just now is a fake corpse. I haven't had a chance to tell my grandmother that she's safe. It's Chang'er's fault that I made my grandmother worry."

A look of surprise suddenly appeared in the eyes of Mrs. Guogong, "Shang'er?"

Yun Shang nodded again and again, "I will explain this matter to my grandmother in detail in the future. It is a little inconvenient now. I am now living in the mansion of the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. There are people watching around the Duke's mansion. My grandmother does not need to contact me. I am fine. , grandma don't worry..."\u003c
