At this moment.
Eunuch Zhou was also stunned on the spot.
He didn't hear anything else clearly, but he only heard the sentence "Little Zheng Zi is dead".
You know, Li Shimin personally ordered him to find Xiao Zhengzi.
Now that he is gone, how can he explain to Li Shimin?
Eunuch Zhou immediately grabbed Xiao Chuzi's lapel and said, "Where is the well? Take me there and have a look!"
"Yes Yes Yes."
"I'll take you to see it, little one."
While talking, little Chuzi also led Eunuch Zhou towards the backyard with big strides.
Li Chengqian also winked at the people around him and followed them leisurely.
When approaching the backyard.
Li Chengqian suddenly stopped, turned to look at Li Tai and said, "Qingque, this is your palace, why don't you come with us to see it?"
Li Tai clenched his fist tightly.
Then, he sneered and said, "Go, of course."
While talking.
He didn't hesitate and followed Li Chengqian's footsteps.
And at this same time.
Eunuch Zhou also came to the backyard with Xiao Chuzi.
Little Chuzi was familiar with the road and led Eunuch Zhou to a dry well in the backyard that had been abandoned for an unknown period of time.
On the dry well, there was originally a stone, but now it has been lifted.
"People are inside!"
Little Chuzi stood by the dry well and pointed into the dry well.
Eunuch Zhou lowered his head to look, and his eyes suddenly widened.
Little Chuzi did not lie, little Zhengzi was lying in the dry well.
The limbs were strangely turned out, the eyes were wide open, blood was visible in five of the seven orifices, and there was a huge depression in the chest. He was already dead and could no longer die.
And judging from his body shape and his expression before death.
He was obviously in great pain when he died.
certainly.
This is not over.
Next to the body of little Zhengzi, there were dozens of corpses of various kinds.
Most of these corpses have become rotten and their original appearance cannot be seen.
What's more, there are some scattered skeletons scattered next to the corpses.
At this moment.
As bold as Eunuch Zhou, his scalp felt numb for a while.
Of course, he was not frightened by the corpse, but by his own thoughts.
When he saw these corpses, Eunuch Zhou already had the scene of Li Shimin being furious in his mind.
People are dead, people are dead in the palace, so many people are still dead.
But as the head of the secret guard and the palace's internal affairs manager, he didn't know anything about it.
This is no longer a matter of guilt or innocence.
If Li Shimin showed mercy outside the law, even cutting his head off would be a light thing.
Eunuch Zhou took a deep breath and turned to the young eunuchs who were following him: "Go find some hemp rope and come here. You guys, wait for him to get the hemp rope and go down and clean it up."
"You'll have to watch me carefully when you're working."
"No matter what's going on down there, please hold it back and don't destroy the scene."
"Also, please clean it carefully and don't leave anything behind. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
Several young eunuchs responded quickly.
not long time.
The little eunuch took the hemp rope back.
Immediately afterwards, a group of young eunuchs went down to the dry well as requested by Eunuch Zhou.
Because they were standing far away just now, they didn't see clearly what was going on under the dry well.
It was also at this time that everyone knew.
What does Eunuch Zhou mean by cleaning up?
at the beginning.
Everyone can still bear it.
But when I went down to the dry well and smelled the smell inside the dry well.
Under the dry well, a burst of vomiting suddenly broke out.
Eunuch Zhou opened his mouth to curse, but Li Chengqian stopped him.
"alright."
"This is human nature."
Li Chengqian patted him on the shoulder and said, "No one can bear it after watching this kind of scene."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Eunuch Zhou raised his head and glanced at Li Chengqian, paused, and seemed hesitant to speak.
"If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later. Do things now."
Li Chengqian said slowly: "After all, this little Zhengzi is a close relative of mine..."
Close friends?
If he had said this before, Eunuch Zhou would still believe it.
But now, Eunuch Zhou also saw what Li Chengqian was thinking.
I can’t say whether this little Zhengzi is a close relative of Li Chengqian.
But Li Chengqian must have known about his death.
Eunuch Zhou had served Li Shimin for many years, and what he saw and heard was already incomparable to others.
Seeing Li Chengqian's attitude at this moment.
He knew that he could not ask about this matter.
Therefore, he focused all his attention on cleaning up the mine.
"Make your movements more agile!"
"Check everything carefully for me. Make sure there are no mistakes."
"Otherwise, I will force you to walk around without food."
The eunuchs below were all responding.
But I was complaining in my heart.
It didn't take long before some relatively complete bodies were brought up.
Among them was Xiao Zhengzi.
It was also at this time that everyone saw the state of Xiao Zhengzi's body.
At that moment, everyone's eyes fell on Li Tai.
Especially Li Ke clenched his fists.
This little Zheng Zi was a living person he had just sent over, but in the blink of an eye he had become like this.
He also didn't expect that Li Tai's methods would be so cruel.
But Li Tai's reaction was dull and somewhat intriguing.
He walked slowly to the pavilion on the side and sat slowly on the stone steps.
at the same time.
He also waved people to bring him tea, and while drinking tea happily, he looked at the dry well as if watching a play.
Because there are too many corpses underground.
It took a total of an hour to clean up.
The corpses and dead bones were also brought up.
Looking around, the huge space was occupied by corpses and skeletons.
At this moment.
Xiao Chuzi walked up to Li Chengqian and said softly: "I have taken a look at it. Added together, there are thirty-one corpses in total."
Thirty-one bodies.
That’s thirty-one lives.
Li Ke also heard this and looked at Li Tai with even sharper eyes.
But Li Tai still didn't react at all, as if nothing happened.
Li Chengqian didn't care how the two of them fought secretly.
He walked slowly to Xiao Zhengzi's side and tidied the broken hair on his head.
"This is a miserable child."
"I'd like to trouble Eunuch Zhou to help me bury him alive."
"His funeral expenses will be charged to our East Palace's account. If there are any relatives, our East Palace will also pay to support him."
Li Chengqian looked up at Eunuch Zhou and said, "Eunuch Zhou, since little Zhengzi's people are gone, then there is no need for me to stay."
"It's about this."
"It's up to you."
"Whether you report it to my father or not, I don't care."
"I have to go back to the East Palace to rest..."
After speaking, Li Chengqian led Xiao Chuzi and Yuan Yuan away with three shaking steps.
When he walked to the door, he still looked presentable and raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes.
Saw this scene.
The eyes of everyone in the field were very complicated.
Eunuch Zhou and Li Ke were ambiguous, while Li Tai was mocking.
The young eunuchs in the audience were all moved, as if they wished they were the ones who died here...
