第192章 烧个干净(一更)
这话分量极重,罗菀菀唇上的最后一丝血色尽数褪去。

得罪叶初棠不算什么,可长公主与定北侯世子,却是他们万万招惹不起的啊!
罗菀菀越想越害怕,摇摇晃晃几欲昏倒。

她身边坐着的另一个少女见状伸出了手,似乎想去扶她,转念一想,却又还是停下了动作,复又低眉垂眼,生怕牵连到自己。

沁阳郡主也注意到了她的模样,扬声问道:“罗小姐脸色好似不太好,可是需要请太医来看上一看?”

罗菀菀是真的怕了,周围无数各色目光压在她身上,她竟两眼一翻,昏了过去。

“菀菀!”

罗英棋连忙上前。

瞧着这烦乱的场景,如贵妃趁时开了口:“不管怎样,救人要紧,先把罗姑娘带下去吧。”

看穆武帝没有出言反对的意思,罗英棋如蒙大赦,千恩万谢,拖着罗菀菀速速告退。

看着那远去的狼狈身影,沁阳郡主撇撇嘴,轻哼一声:“还以为有多大的胆儿,原也是个外强中干的,只会背后嚼舌根罢了!”

这话很是难听,众人听见,却也不敢多说什么。

长公主和定北侯世子的态度再鲜明不过,那是铁了心要给叶初棠撑腰的,罗家如今把人得罪了,以后还不知道会落个什么境地!
如贵妃打圆场:“好了,沁阳,不过是些不懂事的人说了几句,也无须抓着不放。叶二姑娘身正不怕影子斜,又何惧那些流言?她这次舍命救了延川,合该多多赏赐才是。”

沈延川修长的指腹轻轻摩挲着茶杯,旋即轻轻颔首:“贵妃娘娘所言甚是,不过她这个人不贪名利,那些身外之物,对她而言无关紧要。倒是……她父兄当年遇刺一案,或许真有蹊跷,若能查清真相,还她一个说法,许是再好不过了。”

如贵妃嘴角笑意微凝。

“世子的意思是……”

沈延川侧首,看向苏圩。

“方才苏大人说,韩尧当众指认叶恒与叶铮之死有关,不知苏大人那边可有进展?”

所有人都是一愣,没想到沈延川竟又主动提起这件事。

然而下一刻,就见苏圩双手抱拳,恭声道:

“启禀陛下,微臣的确于昨夜收到过一封匿名举报信。而那封信的内容,也意指叶铮当年并非死于意外,而是死于他那位亲弟弟的谋算!”

短暂的死寂后,众人一片哗然!
“什么!?”

“叶铮一家当年遭遇的那场意外,真有叶恒的手笔?!”

“还以为韩尧是狗急跳墙,胡言乱语,可现在这怎么还有匿名信?”

穆武帝神色冰冷。

“到底是怎么回事儿,你一五一十,说个明白!”

萧成煊手掌收紧,下颌紧绷,目光冷沉地朝着苏圩扫了过去。

然而只是片刻,他便收回了视线,神色恢复如常。

苏圩双手抱拳:“启禀陛下,那封信上说,叶铮当初带着全家人离开京城北上梧州,十分低调,知道的人并不多,连送行之人都少之又少。彼时天寒地冻,大雪封路,即便是流寇横行,也不该选在那么偏僻的路段。应当是有人故意泄露了他们的行踪,派刺客伪装成流寇暗中劫杀。而将消息透露出去的那个人……极有可能就是叶恒!”

侯爷的掌心娇是朵黑心莲
Author:

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
