Chapter 835 Mutual Suspicion
Zhang Anyu explained, "I'm not doubting your majesty. It's just that the Fourth Princess' kneeling posture was very strange. She was kneeling on the ground at such a short height, with her back to the door. How could the assassin have cut her neck with the wire from a distance? It must have been done at close range. But it's also very strange at a close distance. According to what your majesty said, there was no one outside the door."
Zhang Anyu was just analyzing the true facts of the case. Jiang Fenghua understood what he meant. She couldn't say that she had been to the Fourth Prince to find Zhang Yurou, otherwise she would be the murderer.
At that time, she did feel a gust of cold wind and the shadows of trees swaying outside the door, but she immediately ran out to check, but there was no one there.
She said, "Then the only thing left is the roof. Could the assassin be hiding on the beam? But it's impossible that there would be no noise at all."
Her five senses have always been very good, and she didn't notice anything before the assassin attacked her.
"If the assassin escaped from the roof as the Empress said, and there was no sound, it means that his martial arts skills are very good, so he didn't make any sound at all." Zhang Anyu said again.
Jiang Fenghua said in a deep voice: "No matter what, killing someone in front of me means that the other party is either trying to provoke me on purpose, or trying to frame me."
Jiang Fenghua didn't get any useful information from Zhang Anyu, so she just made the best of it!
She decided to leave first, maybe the person behind her would come to her on his own initiative.
Seeing that they were about to leave, Zhang Anyu said, "Where are you going, Your Majesty? I will take you there."
"Let's go back to Jiang Mansion first." Jiang Fenghua said, "Our carriage is outside the government office, please stay, Mr. Zhang!"
After knowing the cause of Zhang Yurou's death, she never went to see her body again.
Zhang Anyu stared at their backs as they left, murmuring, "When will the Queen let Miss Hongxiu go out of the palace to handle the case again? This case is so complicated, and the Queen is the person involved, she will definitely send Miss Hongxiu to stay outside the palace!"
Feng Sheng suddenly appeared behind Zhang Anyu and patted him, "Sir."
Zhang Anyu was startled and scolded, "You walk without making any sound? You want to scare people to death. Don't you know that there is a body with its head and body separated in the morgue of the government office?"
Feng Sheng touched his neck and thought that the corpse of the Fourth Princess was indeed a little creepy. He said, "I came here openly and honestly, and I don't know what you were mumbling to yourself that I didn't hear any sound, and you still blame me..."
Zhang Anyu slapped him on the head and said, "Go and investigate the case and find clues. If you can't find the murderer, I will hold you accountable."
"If Miss Hongxiu knew that the master is so fierce, she would definitely be afraid of you." Feng Sheng has been following the master for so long, so he knows what the master is thinking.
"Am I fierce? How am I fierce?" Zhang Anyu slowed down his voice.
"Of course I know that the prefect is not a vicious person. Not only is he not a vicious person, he is also very kind. But Miss Hongxiu doesn't know that!
You like Miss Hongxiu, right? But every time she comes, she acts like she is just doing business. It seems like she has no interest in you at all!"
Zhang Anyu watched the Queen's carriage leave Jingzhao Mansion. He said, "I believe that sincerity can move mountains and stones. Sooner or later, she will be moved."
"But it seems that you haven't taken the first step!" He added: "Last time when we were investigating a case, the red-sleeved lady was there too, why didn't you express your feelings?"
"Stop talking too much and go solve the case." Zhang Anyu immediately drove the man away and stood at the gate of the yamen, acting like a fangirl.
If he could see Miss Hongxiu every day, he would be happy to handle any difficult case.
Jiang Fenghua came out of the government office, and Hongxiu said, "There is no news. Now Lord Zhang knows that the queen went to the Fourth Prince's Mansion and suspects that the queen killed the Fourth Prince's Consort. I guess this matter will be reported back to the palace soon."
If Jiang Fenghua dared to go to Jingzhao Prefecture and tell Zhang Anyu about the situation, he would not be afraid that Xie Shang would also know that Zhang Yurou was dead. This news would probably spread throughout the streets and alleys tomorrow.
However, her reputation has been ruined, and no one will speak up for Zhang Yurou even if she dies.
She couldn't hide the fact that she went to see Zhang Yurou from Xie Shang, and now the only thing she had to think about was how to avoid the topic of Su Qingqing.
The secret guards sent by Xie Shang have both advantages and disadvantages. If she doesn't get rid of them, she will always be under Xie Shang's surveillance.

royal palace.
As soon as Xie Shang came back, he was busy dealing with state affairs. When the secret guard reported the news of the queen's disappearance to the emperor, he knew about it.
He said in a cold voice: "I asked you to protect the queen, how could she, a living person, disappear?"
The secret guard said: "The Jiang Mansion has its own guards, and they are the ones who protect the Queen when she leaves the mansion. The Queen intends to hide from us, and we have no way to stop her."
Xie Shang knew that Jiang Fenghua and Lin Yu had their own power outside, and she would not put herself in danger, but why should she avoid his secret guards?
Soon, the news of the assassination of the Fourth Prince's wife reached Xie Shang's ears, and he also learned that Jiang Fenghua had gone to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
"How is the Queen? Has the assassin been caught?"
"Your Highness is safe and sound. The government is still investigating who assassinated the Fourth Princess. Your Highness went to the Jingzhao Prefecture Yamen to meet with Lord Zhang, and then left and returned to the Jiang Mansion."
Xie Shang fell into deep thought. Why did Ruan Ruan go to find Zhang Yurou? Who killed Zhang Yurou? Why didn't the other party hurt Jiang Fenghua and let her leave the Fourth Prince's Mansion in the end?
Who is it? Is Xie Yang hiding something else?
"Summon Zhang Anyu to the palace to see the emperor." Xie Shang added, "Don't make it public, bring him to the palace quietly."
Zhang Anyu was also very troubled by having to go to the palace so late at night. In his memory, he seemed to always go to the palace at night.
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Majesty." Zhang Anyu bowed respectfully.
"How did the Fourth Princess die?" This was the first thing Xie Shang said.
Zhang Anyu did not dare to hide anything and told the whole story in detail.
After hearing this, Xie Shang asked, "Did the Queen see it with her own eyes?"
"That's what the queen said." Zhang Anyu said, "I was also confused at the time. I also led people to search the Fourth Prince's Mansion. There were people guarding the door all the time. According to what the queen said, I suspect the murderer didn't escape at all, so the most likely possibility now is that the murderer is still hiding in the Fourth Prince's Mansion."
Xie Shang understood what they meant, and also understood Zhang Anyu's worries. "Since the Queen has jumped out of this matter, she has never been to the Four Princes' Palace. You have to keep this matter to yourself."
Zhang Anyu was stunned at first and wanted to say yes, but when the queen was leaving, she said that she would definitely catch the real culprit.
He said, "Have the emperor discussed this with the queen? If the investigation continues, what the queen said will definitely be mentioned again, which will be very disadvantageous to the queen."
Xie Shang frowned. Who killed Zhang Yurou in front of Ruan Ruan? He didn't know.
