Lantern Xiao didn't know Ye Yining, so when he saw that Ye Yining had been staring at the wine in the emperor's hand, he thought that Ye Yining had really poisoned the wine, so he fell for the trick.

Ye Yining didn't know who the eavesdropping person was at that time, so he took such a risk.

He Linwan guessed Ye Yining's plan, but she knew that the emperor was suspicious, so she would speak out before Ye Yining, so that the emperor would be less suspicious of Ye Yining.

As for the palace maid who assassinated, it should be the dead soldier arranged by the Zhao family before, she was told to obey Ye Yining's orders, but she didn't want to be used by Ye Yining.

He Linwan was thinking about what happened tonight in his heart, and suddenly a palace maid hurriedly walked in from outside the hall, and the original sound of talking and laughing in the hall suddenly disappeared, and then continued to sound, but everyone's eyes were paying attention to the palace maid who hurriedly walked in.

The palace maid walked up to Mama Shen and whispered a few words, Mama Shen frowned, and then leaned into the queen's ear to pass the word.

He Linwan's hearing was very good, although the palace maid's voice was not loud, but she still heard the words "across the courtyard" and "famous father-in-law", and immediately understood that it was the body of the old eunuch in the courtyard that was discovered.

The old eunuch died in this Luhua Palace, the queen was probably afraid of causing panic, and after listening to Mama Shen's words, she didn't say anything, just nodded and explained a few words to Mama Shen, and then turned her head to talk to Concubine Xian.

It's just that this banquet still can't go on after all, and after about a quarter of an hour, the queen holds her head and says, "This palace is a little overwhelmed. ”

Concubine Xian immediately said empathetically: "Since that's the case, why don't today's banquet end here?"

Concubine De smiled lazily with a bit of alcohol: "Then let's disperse, it just so happens that the palace is also a little tired." ”

The queen said to everyone: "Today is Daughter's Day, the palace has prepared some gifts for the girls who entered the palace today, and the palace people will hand them over to your entourage when you leave the palace in a while." ”

Everyone got up one after another to thank the queen.

The queen took Mama Shen's hand and got up and left, followed by Concubine De, Concubine Xian and other concubines also left one after another.

The other people in the main hall were led by the palace people and left in turn according to the value of their status.

Da Yu helped the drunk Nanyang princess over, and the Nanyang princess's steps were a little staggering, and she walked crookedly. She sang there as she walked, "...... I have the heart to smash the thief for the master, and I lack a murderous knife in my hand. The chairman sat down to treacherously Cao Cao. Sitting on the civil and military crowds ......"

Da Yu originally wanted to come over and say a few words to Wei, but seeing this situation, he could only help the princess and nodded helplessly at Wei: "I'll talk to you when I'm free." ”

Da Yu helped Princess Nanyang to walk away, and He Linwan could still hear Princess Nanyang's babbling voice: "You two don't have to laugh, there are generations of ancients who listen to the roots and seedlings...... Hugh treats the tiger as a tanuki. Someday it will arrive. Draw your sword to cut the ...... of the seabed."

Mrs. Yuan Xiang was also led out of the palace by the palace people, and Mrs. Yuan asked Wei if she wanted to go with her, but she didn't want a palace person to come over and say to Wei at this time: "Madam, the queen is invited." ”

Wei Shi and He Linwan were shocked when they heard this, and Mrs. Yuan was also a little surprised.

Mrs. Yuan said to Wei: "In that case, you should go and see the queen first." Xiang'er and I went back first. ”

After Mrs. Yuan left with Yuan Xiang, Wei and He Linwan followed the palace people to the Fengxu Palace of the Queen Mother.

Luhua Palace and Fengxu Palace are close to the central axis of the entire palace, the distance between the two palaces is not too far, but compared to the Luhua Palace that has just been brightly lit and colorful satin, Fengxu Palace shows a bit of cold silence and depression, looking at it from a distance, it seems that only the main hall with lights is a little popular.

When Wei and He Linwan walked to the front of the main hall of Fengxu Palace, Mama Shen was already waiting outside the hall.

"Madame, please come with me. Mama Shen said to Wei.

He Linwan originally thought that she could go in with the Wei family, but she didn't want Mama Shen to tell the palace maid who led her over: "Take Miss He to Linqing Pond for a walk." The beggar building there must not have been removed, the little girls love to be lively, and this Fengxu Palace is cold at night. ”

Wei nodded to He Linwan and whispered to her, "Be good, don't be naughty!"

Mama Shen glanced at He Linwan on the side and smiled: "Miss He is so smart and well-behaved, and Madame is too careful." ”

Wei Shi was also not good at mentioning He Linwan's previous great achievements to Shen Mama, so he just shook his head and smiled when he heard this, glanced at He Linwan warningly, and then followed Shen Mama away.

"Miss He, Linqingchi is here. The palace maid saw that He Linwan was still standing. Reminded her softly.

He Linwan watched Wei enter the main hall, bowed slightly at the palace maid, and followed her.

Linqing Pond is an artificial lake dug out of the groundwater by the Emperor Shun of the previous dynasty, and it has been repaired and dug several times later. It has become an artificial river, and the willow trees are planted on both sides of the river, and the pavilions and water pavilions have been built, which is a good place for the palace people to escape the heat in summer.

It was not far from Fengxu Palace to Linqing Pond, and He Linwan followed the palace maid for about half an hour before he saw the "Qiqiao Building" that Shen Mama said. The "Qiqiao Building" built in the palace has seven floors, and in addition to colored satin, it is also decorated with various gems of glazed gold and jade. It is very dazzling under the lamp.

He Linwan knew at a glance that it was not the queen's style, and couldn't help laughing: "This year's Cailou looks a little different from previous years." ”

The palace maid was not very old, and she looked at the magnificent Qiqiaolou with an exclamation on her face: "This is built according to the meaning of Princess Huyang, it is so beautiful." ”

He Linwan couldn't help but sigh when she recalled the miserable crying of Princess Huyang just now, and the disgust in her eyes when she looked at her.

The palace maid looked at He Linwan and asked hopefully, "Do you want to go upstairs to have a look?" ”

He Linwan shook his head: "I just drank some wine and got a little dizzy, just take a look by this river." ”

The palace maid was a little disappointed when she heard this, He Linwan knew that she wanted to go upstairs to take a look, thought about it, and said with a smile: "You go up to see if there is a happy spider prepared, and ask the sister in the building to give me one." ”

The palace maid's eyes lit up, and she immediately said: "Okay, I know the sister who guards the building, so I'll help you get it!"

This palace maid is in the queen's palace, and the queen has always been very tolerant of the little palace maids, so this little palace maid's temperament still retains a bit of liveliness, and she doesn't have too many eyes.

He Linwan nodded: "Don't worry, I'll wait for you by this river, you can help me pick a good one." ”

The palace maid answered, and ran into the building with her skirt.

He Linwan really didn't go away, just leaned under a willow tree next to Linqing Pond, looking at the lanterns reflected in the lake and was stunned.

I don't know who put a few "floats" in the lake, and they floated and sank to the shore and ran aground, not moving. "Water floating" is generally carved with yellow wax into the appearance of mandarin ducks or geese, and there are also carved into the image of men, women or cows, and then painted with color, placed in the water, used to worship morning glory and Vega.

He Linwan casually broke a willow branch and walked to the lake, bent down to push the stranded "float" into the lake, but when she was doing this, she was a little absent-minded because she was thinking about things in her heart, and accidentally stepped on a smooth stone, and her feet slipped-

He Linwan was taken aback, and immediately wanted to squat down and lower her center of gravity to avoid falling into the lake, but the arm of her right hand was grabbed violently, and then she slammed into the arms of the person behind her.

He Linwan immediately stood firm with the help of the visitor, and the man immediately withdrew his hand after she stood firm.

He Linwan turned around and wanted to thank the visitor, but he didn't want to see a familiar handsome face.

Li Yu frowned slightly and looked at He Linwan: "Why do you want to be so engrossed?"

He Linwan looked at him and said lightly: "The soft willows are dotted with green branches, the blue water is clear and the waves are clear, the warm breeze is drunk, and the beauty is seen under the lamp." ”

Li Yu was stunned, and when he looked up, he was standing under a glass lantern.

Li Yu: "......"

He Linwan smiled, glanced at Li Yu, pointed to the "floating on the water" carved into the shape of a beauty in the water, and said: "What do you think! I said it! You are confident enough!"

Li Yu laughed instead of being angry when he heard this: "It seems that you are in a pretty good mood." ”

He Linwan looked at the "floating on the water" that continued to float in the lake, and said in a cold tone: "It's a good festival, why should I be in a bad mood." ”

Li Yu got straight to the point: "Have you been to the small cross courtyard of Luhua Palace today?"

He Linwan glanced at Li Yu: "Is it Li Xiaoheng's little complainant who is looking for you to sue?"

Li Yu raised his eyebrows: "You know what I'm asking." ”

He Linwan took half a step back, leaned on the willow branch, and looked at Li Yu without speaking.

Li Yu continued: "Who killed Mingyuan, the head of the Criminal Prison Division?"

He Linwan still didn't say anything.

Li Yu smiled and said a name word by word: "Ye Yining?"

He Linwan's face turned cold: "Li Yu, are you too idle to panic?"

Li Yu said: "I said to keep you away from him!"

He Linwan looked at Li Yu and smiled sarcastically: "You guessed wrong, I killed Mingyuan." ”

Li Yu's face also turned cold.

He Linwan was not afraid of him, she looked at Li Yu and chuckled: "The Jin Palace's mansion is about to be in a catastrophe, you still have the leisure to care about who killed an inner servant? Now that the external disaster is stable, His Majesty should free up his hands to rectify the internal troubles. ”

Li Yu squinted slightly.

He Linwan sighed: "I heard that the Gongsun family, who has made great contributions this time, used to be the retainers of General Luo, although the Luo family has been disarmed and returned to the field for more than ten years, but the prestige in the army is still unmatched, if I am Your Majesty, I will not feel at ease." ”

The Luo family has always been able to fight well, and it is said that Luo Chengqian, the old general of Luo, has never been defeated in his life, and is regarded as a generation of war gods.

And the princess of Lao Jin, that is, Li Yu's grandmother, is the daughter of General Luo.
