"Dangchang!"

Luan Ge's hand holding the cup trembled, and he dropped the celadon tea cup to the ground, and the sound of the cup breaking sounded in the small warm pavilion, which was unusually clear and transparent.

But what shocked her was not that Qi Mingxiang knew that she was not the real Chu Luange, but-

"That kid, you killed it?"

Even if it is not his own daughter, how innocent is a child who is only nine years old? No matter how much he dislikes it, even if he is a fool, he is still a person who has lived with him for nine years, and that is a living person! What kind of threat can a child pose to such a murderer?

Luan Ge looked at the person in front of him, his eyes were full of anger, is this how life is used to despise?

Could it be that even a little sympathy, even the last bit of kindness, has been drowned out by this deep palace?

Qi Mingxiang looked at Luan Ge, who was holding back her anger, knowing that she must have misunderstood herself, looked into her eyes, and said silently: "How could I kill her? Besides, over the years, although I am not very close to Luan Ge, at least I will not harm her. Besides, do you think I'm stupid enough to kill my own 'own daughter'? She doesn't run away at all, and who will be the first person to be held accountable if something happens?"

The eyes in front of him were clean and clear, without the slightest timidity or evasion. The air froze for a moment, and even the breathing seemed a little abrupt.

Luan Ge looked at her honest gaze, a little embarrassed, and slowly spoke: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." ”

"No problem. If you and I guessed correctly, you are the female corpse, right?" Qi Mingxiang smiled at her, and when she mentioned the "female corpse", there was a slight flicker, but it disappeared in an instant.

Anyone who has lived under the same roof with a long dead person for a while, and now talks together, will feel uncomfortable, right?

It is rare that she can negotiate terms with herself so calmly when she finds out that she is a dead person. Luan Ge has a little more appreciation for this fourth sister in his heart.

"Who killed her?" Even so, Luan Ge didn't answer her question, just asked again. In contrast, she is more concerned about who did such a bad thing to a mere ten-year-old girl.

Since she knew about the female corpse, she must know who killed the real Chu Luange, right?

Although she will have a chance to survive precisely because the real Chu Luange died, no matter how she thinks about it, she still has some apologies and gratitude for the true owner of this body, right?

"Isn't it you?" Qi Mingxiang looked at her in surprise, her eyes widened wide and round, even more surprised than Luan Ge, "Didn't you kill her and then occupy her body?"

Luan Ge looked at her for a long time and slowly shook her head, "It's not me, she was dead before I found her." It was poisoning and died. ”

With that, both of them fell into deep thought.

If the matter has nothing to do with Qi Mingxiang, then who wants to kill a child who is only nine years old and stupid? Why did he not make any more moves after doing it once?

Is the real Chu Luange's death a conspiracy or a coincidence?

Also, why did Xiang'er marry instead of herself? Why was Xiaoyi so alienated from Xiang'er's pretended self? What happened back then?

Also, why has Xiang'er been living with her own face for more than ten years, playing the role of the eldest princess of Qi?

Why can't she marry into Chu as the fourth princess of Qi State?

What is the connection between these things?

There was a long silence in the room, and the green smoke in the smoker drifted away, and the whole room became dull, and only the breathing of the two could be faintly heard.

Luan Ge rubbed her sideburns, things are getting more and more complicated, those familiar people, what role are they playing in this conspiracy?

Luan Ge raised his head, looked at the person in front of him, and took a deep breath: "I can help you, but I have the conditions." ”

"Don't you ask what's the matter?" Qi Mingxiang didn't understand why she agreed so quickly, she had been prevaricating a moment ago, but she agreed so smoothly at this moment.

"As you know, I am only a man who died young, and I do not belong to any of the forces in this court, and nothing will endanger my interests. Luan Ge filled himself with tea, "Isn't it exactly what you fancy about me?"

"What if it's a matter of life and death?"

"What you say is certainly not life-threatening. After all, you don't have anything worth trading my life for. ”

"You're smart. Qi Mingxiang smiled approvingly at her, without the slightest awareness that he was making a deal with ghosts, "What are your conditions?"

"It's simple, you can do it. I'm not going to embarrass you. As long as you answer me truthfully whatever I ask you after the deed is done. But before that, I want you to sue me first, since it wasn't you who harmed Xiaoluange, why did you know about the corpse?"

After Luan Ge finished talking about his conditions, he slowly tasted the tea in the cup, waiting for Qi Mingxiang's reply.

This tea is different, just smelling there is a faint aroma, although the entrance is slightly bitter, but the taste is refreshing bamboo fragrance and a slight sweetness.

It seems that the tea made from the young bamboo leaves in the courtyard is mixed with a little honey, right?

Moisturizing the lungs and clearing the spleen, moistening the intestines and laxative, is of great benefit to the exuberance of the void fire.

"When Luan Ge was young, because she was stupid, no princess liked to play with her, and I didn't go out much on weekdays, so Su Yun and they would only take her out to play for a while occasionally. In the end, she grew up slowly, and often took advantage of the palace maids who guarded her to sneak away to play and play in other places. Several times Su Yun found her, it was near the rockery outside the cold palace. Including that time, when you returned. Qi Mingxiang said slowly.

Luan Ge suddenly remembered that day, Aunt Yun's shocked and frightened eyes when she saw her.

At that time, Aunt Yun already knew that she was not the real third princess, right?

On that day, Su Yun went out to look for Luan Ge, but in the end she found her face black and collapsed in the dry well of the cold palace. Since the concubines of the cold palace were dismissed, there were no soldiers guarding nearby. Su Yun had no way to ask for help for a while, so she hurriedly ran back and told me about the incident, I asked her to bring someone to save Luan Ge, but she didn't let her speak out, so as not to poison the person again.

"Who knew that when she was about to rush over, Qianhua sent you back.

"Luange's dementia suddenly improved that day, which surprised both Su Yun and me. I asked her to go to the dry well to take a second look, but she found a decomposing corpse. She feared that the man who framed you would also go to the dry well to check on it, so she added dry grass to the well and lit a fire, destroying all traces.

"After that, as you know, outsiders only said that the imperial concubine devoted herself to seeking Buddha, and the third princess's dementia improved, but they didn't know that there was a master who stole peaches for plums and moved flowers and trees.

"That's what I know. Qi Mingxiang looked at Luan Ge, got up and half-squatted and saluted: "I am so disrespectful to your corpse, I still hope that the girl Haihan." ”

Since ancient times, people have regarded the corpse as very important, because they believe that when a person dies, the soul temporarily leaves the body, and only the whole corpse can be buried in the earth.

Thinking of this, Luan Ge understood why Aunt Yun would say that it was all her fault on the way here. Come to think of it, it's about incinerating corpses, right?

Knowing the cause and effect of the matter, Luan Ge smiled slightly, after all, the corpse was not really herself, and if it wasn't for that kind of burning, who knows if there would be any more trouble? She turned sideways slightly, and at the same time stepped forward to help her up:

"The mother concubine was too worried, what she saw that day, I think my aunt was dazzled, and there was no corpse, the child just ran to the wrong place for a while, bumped into Concubine Zhen in the imperial garden, and was finally sent back by the eldest princess. You and I are mother and daughter, so why should we be so polite?"

Qi Mingxiang slowly got up with her strength, but listened to Luan Ge continue: "If the mother concubine has any orders, her daughter will do her best. ”
