The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 143
Everything that has happened in the palace lately has made things chaotic in the palace. One by one, events unfolded and attracted attention. But all the bad and good things cannot be hidden from Suri's mother for a while until the state of the woman who was once the number one woman in Shao's empire improves and is ready to receive shocking news.
The imperial physician declared that Suri's mother was unable to receive any shocking news. Moreover, the state of the queen mother who had just improved after the imperial healer thought of Lu Jing Yu's words that day and finally reduced the prescription of the medicine as Lu Jing Yu said. Every day Emperor Pei An Long came to see the condition of his mother was very happy with this development. Although her mood deteriorated after the many times that happened to her, the news of the improved state of Suri's mother slightly reduced the burden of her mind.

Zhu Yao Yan immediately looked up when he heard the clattering of steps entering the room where he was. Pei Zhang Xi walked definitely towards him with Mo Han behind him. The waiter who escorted her back to work after showing her the room.
"Zhu Yao Yan saluted His Highness the Crown Prince." Zhu Yao Yan stood up and saluted.
"Old Master Zhu, please don't embarrass me. Junior like me doesn't deserve your respect."
"Although the age of the servant is older, the status of His Majesty is higher. So it is appropriate for the servant to pay respect. Otherwise, the servant will not be able to bear sins if it does not honor you."
"I have always lost to you, Old Master Zhu. Please sit down." Pei Zhang Xi knew that the man would not sit down before he sat down. So he immediately sat down and allowed the others to sit down as well.
"Old Master Zhu would definitely like to meet me because of the matter of Miss Zhu's death. I'm sure old master Zhu must already have an opinion on this matter." Pei Zhang Xi said without further ado.
"I know my granddaughter was indeed outrageous this time, but she is still a human being who deserves justice to be revealed who killed her."
"Sir, just calm down. This matter also concerned the Empire's good name. Miss Zhu is still a member of the royal family after all. Killing a royal is a big crime."
"Then I can calm down. Although the servant was also very disappointed at his bad behavior, Xie'er was still a granddaughter born from my flesh and blood."
"Actually I have an idea to uncover the culprit. But I need your help."
"If the servant is able, the servant will do anything to help."

Zhu Man Xie's lifeless body was already stuffed into the coffin. Her face was already beautiful with red lips cinabar but looked so cold. His eyes that were glaring were already closed and he was beautifully dressed. Pale white cheeks meet red. A beautiful pattern was drawn on her forehead between her beautifully drawn curved eyebrows.
The red wedding dress wrapped her slender body. The three very small pieces of the hole looked striking compared to the pale white skin and the red dress worn. It would be very easy to see and recognize that the hole was a hole made by a needle that would immediately raise questions about the cause of the needle marks on Zhu Man Xie's body when there were people who saw him while paying his last respects to him.
Although Zhu Man Xie did not die as an empress after the title of Pei Qin Yang was removed, there were still many people who came to pay their last respects that came from various factions. After all despite being without the status of a King, Pei Qin Yang was still a prince of the Shao empire. Zhu Man Xie was also from the famous Zhu family.
The more people saw the needle marks on Zhu Man Xie's neck, the more people started whispering about the awkwardness. They began to question the cause of Zhu Man Xie's death. They also realized that Zhu Man Xie's death was impossible just because he received the huiman of twenty lashes which was the lightest punishment.
"Did you see the three dots on Miss Zhu's neck? I feel like it's a needle prick. Is that really so?"
"Yes. But why is there a puncture wound on Miss Zhu's neck?"
"Didn't you remember what happened at the palace when Empress Rui escaped danger by pricking a needle?"
"Is it possible that Empress Rui did it?"
"Are you kidding me? Empress Rui was only conscious at this moment. To walk alone must be assisted. How could he come unnoticed and kill people?"
"Then who else in this empire could do something like this? This ability is not only great. But it must also be difficult to learn it. Not everyone can do it."
One by one, people began to express their opinions about who the killer really was. Concubine Su who had come heard the people's talk and was worried about Lu Jing Yu's state. What if his daughter-in-law hears this?
But in fact, concubine Su's worries were useless. Everything was going according to the plan made by Lu Jing Yu himself.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Princess, I've done something you've commanded." Quan Yuan came to report.
"good job. Now tell Your Majesty if all the preparations have been completed."
"Your Majesty." Quan Yuan acknowledged the order. Bend down and return out of the room to go to Pei Qin Yang's reception to deliver a message to Pei Zhang Xi.
"Xiao Bei, call physician Xue to come over to change my bandage. It's time I went to perfect the plan."
