An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 1267

After Yun Shang dressing up properly, the stewards were already waiting outside.

Yun Shang stood up and left the bedroom to deal with today's affairs.

There was no important things today. After every steward reported, Yun Shang asked them to leave.

As soon as she got up and was about to go back to her bedroom to change into her daily clothes and go out of the palace, she heard Pei Lan standing beside her saying, "Isn't that Cui Wei from Her Former Majesty' palace?"

Yun Shang followed Pei Lan's gaze and saw a servant slowly walking towards them. She looked familiar, and it seemed that she had indeed seen her in Taihe Palace yesterday.

Yun Shang sat back and said, "Bring her in."

The servant came in and bowed to Yun Shang. "Greetings, your majesty."

Yun Shang smiled. "Get up. What's wrong? Is there anything happened to Her Former Majesty? "

Cui Wei shook her head slightly and said, "Her Former Majesty asked me to tell your majesty that Steward Wang from Imperial Library has.... been dead. "

Yun Shang was stunned as she didn't expect this to happen. "Dead? When did it happen? How did she die? "

"Last night, the imperial physician came and said that it should have happened between midnight and 3 am. She was killed and her throat was cut directly."

Yun Shang felt a sharp pain in her throat, "Her throat was cut? Wasn't Steward Wang locked up in the side hall of the Taihe Palace? The Taihe Palace was heavily guarded. How could no one notice it? Besides, I saw someone guarding Steward Wang outside, right? "

"All the guards were killed, leaving no one alive."

Yun Shang loosened her grip on the handrail, "No one is alive? Isn't there any trace? "

After that, Yun Shang stood up again and said, "I'll go and have a look myself. Tell me more on the way."

Cui Wei nodded and followed Yun Shang out of the main hall.

As soon as they walked out of the main hall, they saw Qian Zhuo coming over with two boxes in her hands.

Qian Zhuo was surprised to see Yun Shang in a hurry. "Where are you going, your majesty? Aren't you going out of the palace? "

"I'm afraid we can't get out of the palace today. Steward Wang from Imperial Library was killed last night." Yun Shang stopped and said, "Send the gifts to Qian Yin and congratulate them for me."

"Yes." Qian Zhuo came back to her senses and watched Yun Shang walking out of Weiyang Palace.

When they arrived at the Taihe Palace, the maid took Yun Shang straight to the side hall. Many people stood outside the side hall and greeted Yun Shang when they saw Yun Shang coming in.

Yun Shang ignored him and went straight in.

Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling were there, and there were also two people standing in front of Xia Huanyu. One was Zhao Guang from the Imperial Hospital, and the other was Dai Tingyu, the deputy commander of the imperial guards.

"Except for the fatal wound on her neck, there is no other wound on Wang Wenxiang's body. She died without any trace of struggle. It was most likely that she was killed in her sleep." The imperial physician reported.

Yun Shang frowned and looked at them carefully. There was no blood on their bodies except the clotted blood between their eyebrows.

It was not strange at all. The position between the eyebrows was important. If one was slightly injured by an external force here, he would be easily killed.

Yun Shang looked at the corpses and frowned slightly. From the positions of the corpses, their faces were facing the door.

What was outside the door? Were they checking something?

Yun Shang stood up and went into the room where Steward Wang was imprisoned.

There was still a stink in the room. Yun Shang frowned and looked around. It seemed to be the same as yesterday when she came.

There was no bed in the room, and Steward Wang was dead on the ground.

However, just as the imperial physician said, she was lying on the ground with her eyes closed, and there was no expression of pain on her face. There was a wound on her neck and the blood flew all over the ground. Several hours later, the blood had already seeped to the ground, leaving only the brown stains.

Yun Shang walked to the corpse of Wang Wenxiang, looked down at it for a long time, and then turned around and walked out.

Xia Huanyu was talking to Hua Ling. When he heard the footsteps, he turned around and asked, "Have you found anything?"

Yun Shang shook her head and said, "The wounds between the guards' eyebrows should have been hit by something. From the shape, it should be a small round thing. And from the corpse layout, that person should have walked in from the outside, and he should have made some noise to attract the guards' attention."

"As for Wang Wenxiang..." Yun Shang pressed her lips and said, "She was lying on the ground when she died, so it's difficult to tell the height of the murderer. The clues left at the scene... There is actually no clue. "
