The maid led the way in front.

Red Big and Red Seven followed. The two of them didn't say anything, one is that there are many eyes and ears in the palace, and many words are not easy to say in front of others; The second is that the most important thing now is to see Red Eight first. No matter how important it is, it has to be ranked after this one.

It's just that the closer to Chuxiu Palace, the higher Hongda's heart is raised, God willing, Hongba's injury must not be too serious, otherwise, how to explain to his mother?

Hongda's heart was full of worry, and the hand in her sleeve unconsciously grasped the handkerchief tightly.

The atmosphere was silent and depressing, and the steps of the palace maid who led the way in front of her unconsciously became a little faster. When she finally arrived at the gate of Chuxiu Palace, the palace maid who led the way secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Princess Runan, this is it."

Hongda nodded.

The gate of Chuxiu Palace was closed, and the door was guarded by several eunuchs. The palace maid took out the queen's token, which allowed them to open the door.

Chuxiu Palace has always been a temporary residence for the show girls of the draft, and it is composed of multiple courtyards. After entering, a palace maid greeted him and greeted him with Hongda. She is the aunt in charge of this courtyard, surnamed Mo. After the palace maid who brought Hongqi and them handed over Princess Runan to this aunt, she went back to pay the errand. Aunt Mo personally took Hongda and Hongqi to see Hongba.

"Aunt Mo, how is my sister now? Is it very strict? ”

After the palace maids in the queen's palace left, Hongda finally couldn't help but ask again-

Although there are people in the palace in Runan Palace, Chuxiu Palace is not an important place, just a place where the draft women stay temporarily. When I wasn't drafting, it was very deserted. It costs a lot to buy spies in the palace, and it is extremely difficult to install spies, so naturally it will not be wasted in such a place.

Therefore, Hongda doesn't know much more than Hongqi.

Aunt Mo was still very respectful to Hongda, the princess of Runan, but she didn't sell it, and said: "Back to the princess, Miss Hongba's injury, it is not strict to say that it is not strict, it is just a little flesh injury, and after applying medicine, the bleeding stopped, and it will be fine." ”

Hongda let out a long breath, and the heart that had been hanging in the air fell.

Hong Qi was not relieved so early, she saw that this Aunt Mo's expression was not relaxed, it was obviously not so simple. asked in a deep voice: "Looking at my aunt's appearance, is there anything wrong with the eighth sister's injury?" ”

Aunt Mo was a little surprised that Hong Qi hit the nail on the head as soon as she opened her mouth, not Hongda.

However, those who have lived in the palace for a long time have hidden their hearts very well, and they have not revealed this surprise. When Hongda heard Hong Qi's question, his eyes also moved to Aunt Mo's body.

"Is that the case?"

Aunt Mo nodded and said, "Although the injury is not strict, it is just on the face, it is too medical to treat the best wound medicine, but it is still possible to leave a scar." ”

"How so?"

Hongda was shocked. How important is the appearance of the daughter's family, if it really leaves a scar on the face, then how can Hongba marry in the future?

"The doctor said that there may be a scar, but the wound is not too deep, and it may be obvious at first, and after a long time, it should be much better, and if it is five or six years, maybe it won't be obvious."

Aunt Mo added.

"Five or six years?"

Hongda smiled bitterly, the question is, Hongba is now fifteen, can she afford to wait?

While talking, several people entered the courtyard where Red Eight and the others lived. This courtyard, like the other courtyards, also houses one or twenty young ladies who have passed the primary and secondary elections. However, at this time, none of them could be seen, they were all locked in their respective rooms, and in front of the door, there were palace maids guarding them, and they couldn't come out.

Aunt Mo pointed to one of the several rooms in the main room and said, "Miss Hongba is in there now, please come with me." ”

Yes!!

At this moment, the piercing scream suddenly pierced the air, piercing people's eardrums in pain.

"Oh no, come and help!"

"Miss Red Eight hanged herself!"

Aunt Mo's face changed.

"Lan'er!"

Red screamed, his head dizzy.

A figure flashed, and Red Seven passed the two of them and rushed towards the commotion. The originally quiet rooms were also in a commotion at this time, and a pair of eyes peeked at this side through the cracks in the windows. The door of one of the rooms was pushed open with force, and Red Three and Red Nine appeared at the door, their faces white with fright.

"Let us out!"

"Don't stop us!"

The two rushed out, and the palace maids guarding the room stopped them, and they couldn't read;

Red Qi rushed to the house first, and saw that the house was in chaos. Hongba hung in mid-air, and the two palace maids held her legs, desperately stilting down.

Red Seven Qi Knot, is this saving people? Or murder?

Hurriedly shouted: "Don't go down, carry me up." "Unless the knot is tied very loosely and can be dragged down, in most cases, the more you pull the neck, the tighter it becomes, and there is still a breath left, but it is also strangled, and if you don't die, you have to die. The palace maids were panicking at this time, and they were used to hearing orders, and when they heard the tone of Hong Qi's order, they didn't think who made it, so they subconsciously did it.

Hong Qi took three steps and did two steps, without delaying for a moment, ran to the dresser and rummaged around, and sure enough, he found scissors for her.

When Aunt Mo and Hong Da arrived, Hong Qi happened to be standing on a chair and cut the clothes belt hanging on the beam, and Hong Ba fell. The two palace maids followed, but they were also a little struggling, staggering, just when Hongda and Aunt Mo arrived, they hurriedly helped stabilize it, and they didn't care about putting it on the bed or anything, so they just put it on the ground.

Hongda hurriedly untied the belt wrapped around Hongba's neck, and when he saw the deep strangulation marks on her neck, the tears that he had been holding back fell without money.

Hongda patted Honghachi's face with his hand and called anxiously.

"Lan'er, Lan'er!"

Hongba didn't react, and Hongda's face turned even whiter.

Aunt Mo hurriedly reached out to probe Hong Ba's snort, and at this time, Hong Ba's upper body suddenly trembled, and then, after a long breath, she coughed violently.

Hongda hurriedly patted her on the back and asked again and again, "Lan'er, how do you feel?" Is there anything wrong with it? ”

Honghachi coughed for a while, and finally got better.

After he was ready, when he saw Hongda, he cried: "Sister, what are you doing to save me?" Now like this, who else will marry me? I don't want to live anymore. At this time, Hongda saw Hongba's face, and suddenly gasped. Aunt Mo also said that the wound is not deep, but it is not called deep? A long red wound scratched most of Honghachi's cheeks from top to bottom, and Hongba's originally beautiful face suddenly became hideous. Hongda held back the horror in his heart, but the two palace maids took several steps back in unison, and the horror and disgust in their eyes deeply pierced Hongba's heart.
