Chapter Seventy-Eight: Night Visit to Collect Evidence

At night, in the dead of night, in the northeast corner of the Jade Immortal Palace, two agile figures quickly flew out. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The figure ran all the way, avoiding the palace maids, eunuchs, guards and secret guards, and came all the way to the place in the palace that everyone has avoided so far, the Changde Palace, Concubine Ning's bedroom.

Although there has just been a murder in this palace, because Concubine Ning's body has not yet been buried, it is still placed in the main hall, that is, in the dormitory where Concubine Ning once lived. The lights were bright, and no one had come in since Concubine Ning died.

Mo Yu took off the black face towel that covered his face, probably looked around the whole room, and said to the person behind him: "Hey, don't touch it for me!" ”

Yetian spread out his hands to show his innocence, and said with evil peach blossom eyes: "How unlucky it is to come here and be in the company of the dead on this big night!" Otherwise, let's go now! ”

"If you want to go, you can go by yourself, don't scare me."

Mo Yu looked at the whole room, and always felt that something was wrong in this room, but he couldn't say it. There is a human figure drawn on the ground, and it should be the shape of Concubine Ning after her death! From the shape, it can be seen that Concubine Ning was half-sideways when she died, her left hand raised above her head, and her right hand was parallel to her chest, falling under the left armpit. What was she clutching? Or do you want to hold on to something?

I looked in the direction of my right hand, and sure enough, I saw the drapery that had been pulled a foot away, and there were folds in some places. Before Concubine Ning died, she must have been in great pain, she pulled the curtain to find a support point for her body, but unfortunately she finally fell to the ground helplessly, becoming the current position.

"See what?"

A voice came from behind him, Mo Yu was startled, glared at him slightly angrily, and said, "Don't sneakily appear behind me in the future, it will scare people to death." ”

"Hehehe, it turns out that you are also afraid!"

"You keep quiet, if you have the heart to help, or stay there and don't talk." After Mo Yu finished speaking, he turned and walked to the window. Behind him, Yetian looked at the curtain and smiled.

The doors and windows are closed, last night there was a great wind and snow, the weather was very cold, and it is normal to close the doors and windows. There were some quilts on the bed, and the coat hung on the railing beside it, apparently the owner had rested, and a pair of dark blue shoes were placed on the shoes under the bed.

Mo Yu frowned, walked over and picked up the shoes, there was a slight dust under the soles, which should be the shoes she wears on weekdays. However, Concubine Ning got up in the middle of the night, why didn't she even wear shoes, and walked so far away?

There was an unburned candle under the windowsill, and Mo Yu sniffed it, and there was no problem. There are a few plum blossoms in the room, and there is no problem, that is to say, the poison did not enter Concubine Ning's body by burning, and Concubine Ning had no wounds on her body, nor did she enter through the wounds, that is, she drank it herself.

Drink? That's right. Finally found something wrong in the house. Seeing her brows stretched, Yetian asked, "Did you figure out something?" ”

Pacing to the round table, looking at the flat tablecloth, he smiled: "As soon as I entered the door, I felt that something was wrong, I always felt that something was missing in this room." Now I finally understand what's missing. ”

"What's missing?"

"Teapot and teacups. Generally, in order to make it convenient for the masters to drink water at night, the palace maids will put a pot of boiling water on the table before the masters go to bed. But there is no such thing in this room. ”

Ye Tian said in a deep voice: "You mean to say that the poison is put in this tea, and Concubine Ning is poisoned by drinking tea?" ”

"Well, there's one thing I don't understand. How did this murderer calculate that Concubine Ning would definitely drink water last night, so she poisoned this water? ”

"Could it be that she is poisoned every day, when will Concubine Ning drink and when will she die?"

Mo Yu shook his head and said, "No." He counted the time. Because this period of time happened to be when I came back, if this is the case, this murderer, among the patrolling guards, must have an internal response. Or, in the Jade Immortal Palace, there are his eyes. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the time of her death coincided with the time of my return! ”

"Could it be that you came back last night out of the blue, and they happened to push it on you."

"It's also possible. By the way, go get me the shoes. ”

Yetian looked at the collapsed shoes and wondered, "What are you doing?" ”

Mo Yu had already turned around and walked out of the inner room, and a light voice came, "Let you take it, what are you doing with so many questions?" ”

Yetian reluctantly walked over, picked up his shoes, and complained secretly, "When did I become you, hum." ”

On the main hall. Mo Yu watched Concubine Ning lying in this coffin. Half a year ago, she was still high-spirited and deeply favored by the emperor, Concubine Ningniang, and the mother of the proud Princess Jingde. But I didn't expect that no matter how beautiful the surface was, it was just a soul in this palace, and I died under the blade of the struggle of interests. When she died, the last thing she thought of was the emperor or the daughter she was thinking of?

Concubine Ning had already changed into clean clothes and shoes, the nails on her hands, the eyes on her face, and her lips were black, and she was obviously poisoned and died. Mo Yu took off the shoes on Concubine Ning's feet and put the shoes inside, the size was just right, there was no doubt that it was indeed Concubine Ning's shoes.

There is no big gain, as long as she reads the testimony, I hope that God will favor her, and there is no testimony that is not good for her.

Return to the Jade Immortal Palace.

"Don't be discouraged, it may be good news that you can't find any evidence." Yetian handed her a cup of tea and comforted her softly.

"I just can't figure out why so many people want me dead. Am I really that valuable? ”

Yetian looked at her side face under the candlelight, she changed, she became crying and laughing, sad and angry, she is real alive now, living a little fleshy, emotional and emotional, not like before, always looking calm and light, not caring about everything and not caring about everything. Is this the change that the man gave her? What about him, he is in her psyche, but he is still in his original position. He was suddenly a little scared, what would happen to him if one day, when she really threw herself into the arms of another man?

"Moyu, I'll take you away!"

Mo Yu looked at the steaming tea in his hand and said lightly, "Don't be kidding. ”

"Moyu, what I said last time was sincere, and this time too. Let's go, go to a place where no one can find it, you can plant a lot of azaleas, read books and play the piano every day, and live freely. I will be by your side and take you to watch the sunrise and sunset. ”

"Actually, the **** said that you should go to the house to propose marriage, half true and half false. If you really come, I may not go with you, because of my mother, I thought my mother was still alive. But later, you still didn't come, which proves that you never took me to heart. Yetian, so to speak, you are the first man I met on Wuyan Mountain, I believe in you, rely on you, and love you. You know my mind, but why do you never pretend you don't know? ”

Because of his identity, he still wasn't sure if she would still be able to listen to him as quietly as she did now. "Moyu, I love you. I love you before and now. ”

"Can you tell me, then, what is holding you back from loving me?"

Seeing him with his head down and tangled, Mo Yu raised his head, held back the tears in his eyes, and said quietly: "If you are embarrassed, you don't have to say it!" I'll talk about it when you want to talk about it someday. I'm afraid I can't go now. When I leave, I don't know how much trouble will be made? ”

Ye Tian smiled and said quietly: "Although you hate the people of the Ji family, you still care about them, don't you?" ”

"Hate can't be talked about, life is short for decades, there are so many beautiful things to enjoy, why waste useless time on hate? Zhong Ting once told me that he wanted to see the beautiful scenery of the world, but in fact, that was the life I wanted the most, but, hehe, I'm afraid I don't have that opportunity. ”

Night, I say that, do you understand?

Yetian raised his head, looked into her eyes, covered her hand holding the teacup, and said in a trembling voice: "Moyu, will you fall in love with him?" ”

Will you fall in love with him? This "he" refers to the emperor. To be honest, he and she have only been with her for less than a month, but in this month, she has changed a lot. She didn't know if it was him who changed her, or if circumstances changed her, or both. "I don't know."

I don't know, it means that her heart has been shaken, right? "Promise me not to fall in love with him, okay?"

"Yetian, I'm just a mortal, I have seven emotions and six desires, I can't control my heart."

"If you fall in love with him, I'll ruin him. So, Moyu, don't love him. ”

ruined his country. Chai Rong's country can be destroyed if it is said to be destroyed.

Moyu looked at the sky outside the window, it's time! Thinking of this time last night, her appearance of Hell Shura, even she was shocked. Hehe, "It's late at night, you can go back and rest!" Pay attention to Tian'er, she has martial arts. ”

"I know, what I just said, I mean it, promise me."

After a long time, Mo Yu nodded slightly and said, "Well, go to sleep!" In her heart, she still prefers the night sky.

The wall between the two of them seemed to be getting clearer and clearer. Mo Yu didn't know if she had the courage or the ability to destroy that wall, and then walked over, took his hand, and walked far away to live the life she wanted.

Following.

Ji Feicui returned to the palace from Jifu with great fanfare early in the morning, originally wanting to meet the emperor, but he didn't expect the emperor to be gone. So he had to reroute to the Jade Immortal Palace, wanting to find Moyu's bad luck, but he was stopped outside the palace gate and was not allowed to enter. Later, I had to go to the Queen Mother to cry angrily.

The Queen Mother looked at Ji Feicui, who was crying endlessly in front of her, and was very irritable, but it was not easy to show it on the surface, so she could only patiently comfort: "Jade, your temper has to be changed, the emperor doesn't like women who are always crying." ”

This trick really worked, Ji Feicui immediately listened to the sobbing sound and said, "Really? The concubine stopped crying. ”

"That's right. Come, have a cup of tea and moisten your throat. ”

Ji Feicui took the tea, took a sip, and said: "Queen Mother, don't you know, Ji Moyu is too arrogant, she not only threatened the concubine's mother with a knife, but also seriously injured the concubine's brother, and finally set fire to the Ji family's ancestral hall. If it weren't for the blessing of our ancestors, we would all be dead souls in the fire. ”

The Queen Mother is not a fool, she knows best what kind of character Ji Moyu is, if something hadn't forced her to be anxious, she wouldn't be like this. "Concubine Li is not a reckless person, she acts steadily, if it weren't for something that annoyed her, would it be like this?"

"What could annoy her? It's just that she sees that the concubine is her sister, but her status is higher than her, and she is jealous. Queen Mother, don't you know, even the old lady can't do anything about her. She also asked her father to drive her mother out of the capital, saying that after a month, if she still saw the concubine's mother in the capital, she would definitely kill her. ”

"This Concubine Li is indeed too much, isn't she afraid that the world will scold her and be punished by God if she does this?"

"Queen Mother, you must save the concubine's mother, you must punish this Ji Moyu, and let her know who is the most powerful person in this world."

This was taught to her by the Yuan family, and the Yuan family is worthy of being a woman in a big family, and she knows what words are the most impactful language. Ji Moyu can be so presumptuous, and it is not that the emperor is behind him. The emperor spoiled her and got used to her, making her so proud that she didn't even know who she was. She wanted Concubine Li to know that she had the protection of the emperor, but the emperor still listened to her mother, in the final analysis, she, the queen mother, was the most powerful woman in the Zhou State.

The Queen Mother said in a deep voice: "This matter is decided by the mourning family." As long as there is a mourning family, your mother will be fine. Besides, now Concubine Li is also too busy to take care of herself. ”

"Oh, by the way, the Queen Mother, the concubine went to the Jade Immortal Palace just now, but she was stopped outside, and there are still many guards at the door, what happened?"

"In the early morning of last night, Concubine Ning died in her palace, and there is all kinds of evidence in Dali Temple to prove that Concubine Li is the murderer, so the mourning family put her under house arrest in the Yuxian Palace, waiting for the results to be found."

Ji Feicui was so happy in her heart that she almost jumped up and jumped a few times. But in front of the Queen Mother, he could only restrain his behavior, but his happiness was beyond words. "Queen Mother, you see, she really does everything, if she dares to kill Concubine Ning, she dares to kill her mother. Queen Mother, this kind of person should be immediately put to prison and executed by Ling Chi, why is it just house arrest? ”

The Queen Mother's face turned cold and said, "I didn't expect Concubine Xian to look lively and cute, but I didn't expect her mind to be so cruel." No matter what Concubine Li says, she is also your sister! ”

Ji Feicui was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and explained: "The concubine doesn't mean that, the concubine just thinks that killing people pays for her life, even if Concubine Li is the sister of the concubine, the concubine can't cover it up." ”

"Dali Temple just said that Concubine Xian was suspected of murder, and there was no sufficient evidence, so the mourning family couldn't help her. However, in the past few days, you don't want to go to the Jade Immortal Palace, take care of your body, and pull the emperor to your Lanyue Palace is the right thing. ”

"Yes, the concubine Jin obeys the will of the Queen Mother." Ji Feicui took out a letter from his cuff, raised it above his head, and said, "This is the letter that the old lady asked the concubine to bring to the Queen Mother, please ask the Queen Mother to take a look." ”

The Queen Mother took the letter, was not in a hurry to read it, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, get up!" You just returned to the palace, you must be tired, so go back and rest first! ”

"Yes."

After Ji Feiyu retreated, the Queen Mother slowly removed the letter and read it. At first glance, my heart almost jumped to my throat, and the letter in my hand trembled a little before falling to the ground flutteringly.

There are only a few words in the letter: Concubine Li knows about the matter of Shengping Building.
