Chapter 474 Is It Possible that She Is Not Dead?

Master Gu, who was recuperating in the princess's mansion, couldn't help but tear up when he learned that Shen Siyi's death was caused by Concubine Qi.

When mentioning Concubine Qi, he gritted his teeth and wished he could kill her with his own hands.

Shen Ningning was also quite regretful.

"My mother drowned in the water. It was not an accident, but was killed by someone. My father has been blaming himself these days and locked himself in the room. So I have to spare a few days to comfort him and accompany him. I won't come to visit Mr. Gu often. If you need anything, just tell the maids and guards here."

After she finished speaking, Master Gu suddenly stood up: "Princess, what did you say? The general was killed and fell into the water and drowned?"

Shen Ningning was about to leave, but turned around and nodded with her big eyes blinking.

Master Gu's face was full of suspicion.

"How is this possible..."

"Mr. Gu, have you thought of anything? Is there a hidden story behind my mother's death?"

"Whether there is a hidden story or not, I really don't know, but I do know that General Shen, who was selected as the captain, has already undergone rigorous physical training. Not to mention her, I alone can now live normally in a place with thin air. Our lungs are different from yours. We can hold our breath underwater for more than an hour."

After the cruel training of the end of the world, their bodies have already had subtle differences from those of the ancients.

Let alone drowning, Shen Siyi, as a general in charge of 300 people and going to open a new base on the moon, is even more physically strong.

There is no reason for her to be drowned like this.

"Could the general have discovered some secrets underwater, so he left?" Master Gu thought of this possibility and his eyes widened suddenly.

Shen Ningning was shocked by his conjecture.

She shook her head decisively: "Impossible, I also asked my father, if my mother is really that powerful, she should not die so easily, but my father said that he personally put my mother into the coffin, and he also watched the coffin buried with his own hands."

Master Gu was skeptical about this.

"Princess, if the Prime Minister doesn't mind, I think it's better to open the coffin and check it out. The general is very capable, maybe... he is really not dead!"

He came from the end of the world, and his concept of life and death was not so serious.

But for Xie Suzhi, many years after Shen Siyi's death, he actually wanted to open her grave, which was to hinder her peace.

So, even if it was Shen Ningning who proposed it, he immediately rejected it.

"No, absolutely not!" He stood up immediately in a hurry.

Xie Suzhi walked quickly to Shen Ningning and bent down to communicate with his daughter.

"Ningning," he said with indelible sadness in his eyes: "Daddy knows it's hard for you to believe that your mother has passed away, but Daddy told you that I saw her body with my own eyes and buried her with my own hands."

Said Xie Suzhi, a little annoyed: "Whoever is talking nonsense in front of you must have bad intentions, bring him here immediately."

Shen Ningning heard the murderous intent in his tone and quickly grabbed her father's sleeve with her little hand.

"Daddy, I know it's hard for you to accept it for a while, but I think what that person said makes sense. Since mother is so powerful, maybe she is not dead?"

Xie Suzhi's eyes were red, and he stood up and turned his back.

His voice became a little serious and cold: "Ningning, don't say anything more, go, let Daddy be alone for a while."

Shen Ningning hesitated to speak, and her watery black eyes could only reveal a trace of regret.

She nodded obediently: "Daddy, think about it carefully. I'm going to the National Academy."

To ask Xie Suzhi to open the coffin, for him, is tantamount to asking him to hurt his deceased wife with his own hands.

Since ancient times, people have always paid attention to being buried in peace. How could he really dig up the grave because of a few words from others?

Shen Ningning knew that she had to give him some time.

The little girl went to the National Academy and happened to meet Lu Shaoyuan.

"Shen Ningning!" Lu Shaoyuan trotted over. The young man wearing a golden mink fur coat had a handsome face.

At this time, he frowned: "Today I heard from my brother that the national teacher ran away."

Long before Qi Jingchun was executed, Shen Ningning reminded the emperor to arrest the national teacher.

Unexpectedly, the cheating national teacher was put in prison and could escape!

"He must not be able to escape by himself. Someone must help him." Shen Ningning pondered and felt very strange.

Since Qi Jingchun is dead and the forces related to her have been removed, could it be that she has an insider hiding in the capital?

Lu Shaoyuan nodded: "But the emperor has issued an imperial decree to post wanted notices everywhere. I don't believe he can run away anywhere!"

Just then, a gentle call came from their side.

"Ningning~"

The little girl turned around and saw that it was Qi Xiuwei.

She had a heart disease because of her marriage, but fortunately, because she broke off the engagement, she didn't have to marry someone she didn't like, and she recovered again.

Seeing Qi Xiuwei again, Shen Ningning felt that she was smiling and delicate, and even her eyes were shining.

"Xiaowei, you haven't been to the National Academy for a long time."

"I have been recuperating for some time, and I haven't had time to thank you. If it weren't for you helping me, I'm afraid I would really be someone else's second wife."

Qi Xiuwei patted her chest and said, looking like she was in danger.

Recently, the Qi family has been deeply affected by Qi Jingchun. Old Madam Qi has been ill, and even Lord Qi is walking on thin ice in the officialdom.

In the whole family, Qi Xiuwei is the happiest.

No one oppresses her anymore.

Shen Ningning laughed: "It's good that the problem has been solved!"

After a while, Ye Shangyi also came, and the few of them went to class talking and laughing.

Passing outside Master Han's study, I saw Mo Zhirou standing inside with her head down, as if wiping tears.

Ye Shangyi stood there with a gossipy heart, and pulled Shen Ningning and Qi Xiuwei, and the others watched the fun together.

"Why is she crying?"

"She must have been scolded by Master Han."

At this time, Liang Yici, who was passing by, glanced at them and said, "The Princess of Shu is going back to Shuzhou. Mo Zhirou doesn't want to go with her and wants to stay in the capital, so she wants Master Han to come forward and persuade the Princess of Shu to stay for her studies."

Before Shen Ningning could say anything, Ye Shangyi stood up for the Princess of Shu.

"The King of Shu has done such a treasonous thing, and the emperor didn't blame his family, which is good enough. How can Mo Zhirou still be so ungrateful? She doesn't want to go back, so she wants the Princess of Shu to stay. She is so selfish!"

But Shen Ningning guessed why Mo Zhirou insisted on staying in the capital.

Because the Princess of Shu was disappointed with the King of Shu, and after the King of Shu got into trouble, the Emperor issued an order to return her freedom and innocence.

This means that after the Princess of Shu returns to Shuzhou, she can marry again without any impact.

And Mo Zhirou has seen the prosperity of the capital, and she just wants to stay here.

Besides, she is not the biological daughter of the Princess of Shu, but she was adopted by her.

Master Han obviously rejected her request.

He is just a teacher, how can he have the nerve to discipline the Princess of Shu?

Mo Zhirou left crying, and when she went out, she saw Shen Ningning and the others nearby, as if watching her excitement, and Mo Zhirou's eyes flashed with more unwillingness.

She quickened her pace and left.

Qi Xiuwei sighed: "I think she will definitely find another way to stay."

"Let her do whatever she wants, it has nothing to do with us anyway!" Shen Ningning said, and several people left together.

A few days later, news of the emperor's anger came from the palace.

"Have you heard that someone secretly reported to the emperor that the Ninth Prince is not his biological son, but the son of the King of Shu and Concubine Qi!"
