Chapter XXV: Punishment
Ying Wanrou was the farthest away from Shangguan Haiyin, and before Shangguan Haiyin could react, Ying Wanrou didn't even have time to call, so she fell down instantly, lying on the ground staring straight ahead with her eyes wide open, and she was no longer breathing.

Everything was too fast, and the show girls and palace maids around didn't have time to react.
The first one to come back to his senses was Zhang Wenlan, who had just been frightened, his body was weak, and he sat directly on the ground, and within a few days of entering the palace, the second person had already died, when was it a head? Zhang Wenlan looked at Shangguan Haiyin with watery eyes, but Shangguan Haiyin didn't know how to react.
My mind was spinning rapidly, and I remembered that the master had a book called "The Strange Poison of the World", which explained in detail what the habits of the seven-star snake were, because the seven-star snake is very poisonous, and it will definitely appear near the one-day broken intestine grass. So she thought that with Shen Yueming's recognition of herbs, it was normal to raise a little snake like this, but how did the snake rush towards Ying Wanrou?
Could it be that it was designed that day, but ...... She was still thinking about it. Aunt Xue came back to her senses: "Go to the Tai Hospital and call someone!" What are you doing in a daze! The rest of the show girls are here to stay! I'm going to call someone! When leaving, he turned his head and looked at Shangguan Haiyin: "Shangguan Little Master ......" After saying a few words, he took the words back and ran away without looking back.
Shangguan Haiyin looked sideways at the rest of the show girls, and they all looked at her with evasive eyes, especially Shen Yueming.
Qi Zexuan rushed up and slapped Shangguan Haiyin hard: "It's just a palace maid!" You're now killing a show girl! ”
Shangguan Haiyin looked at Qi Zexuan in disbelief, the two of them had not had much contact since they entered the pre-show pavilion, and they were impressed that she stood by her side when she stood on the pile yesterday. But today, anyone can see that the poison is hidden on the head of the show girl next to her, and the purple jade glass is still the show girl's thing, so it can't be counted on her head.
Qi Zexuan looked at her with blazing eyes: "I know you feel aggrieved and feel guilty." But she died because of you! No matter what the truth of the matter is, if this matter spreads out of the palace, it is that your Shangguan Haiyin has been planning to kill the daughter of the governor for a long time, how stupid! ”
Qi Zexuan's few words seemed to wake up the show girls around her, and Kang Xinyi suddenly covered her forehead and fell back: "I...... I have a headache, quick, help me ......" said and pretended to faint.
Qi Zexuan looked at her appearance, snorted coldly, and then glared at Shen Yueming. Shen Yueming's feet were weak, and he sat on the ground, looking at Ying Wanrou, whose face was like ashes but still his eyes were still wide, and he stopped making a sound.
Shangguan Luoxiang wanted to say something, but was pulled by the sleeve of the palace maid behind him, and Shangguan Haiyin heard the palace maid persuade in a low voice: "Little master, what is going on today...... It has nothing to do with Shangguan Xiaozhu. After hearing this, Shangguan Luoxiang looked back at her suspiciously, then looked at Shangguan Haiyin, and shrank when her eyes touched the gold-handled purple jade glazed hairpin on the ground.
In the huge courtyard, only the sound of Zhang Wenlan sobbing remained.
Qi Zexuan looked at Shangguan Haiyin: "If you want to live, you have to put away the edge on yourself." These words were very light, but they fell heavily on Shangguan Haiyin's heart. She's helping her? Why did Qi Zexuan help her?
There are a total of seven show girls in the East Chamber, and Shangguan Haiyin's family background among the seven show girls is not the best, nor is it the most pleasing to the queen, Qi Zexuan, as the queen's own sister, why should she help her.
Qi Zexuan didn't speak, but looked at the palace gate in a daze, and not long after, there was a noisy sound over there.
Several imperial doctors with official hats hurriedly came, and after seeing Ying Wanrou on the ground, one of the imperial doctors glanced at the imperial doctor next to him, then shook his head, got up and said loudly to the people behind: "Queen Mother, people are no longer saved." ”
The queen followed the people over, followed by Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu, Shangguan Haiyin saw that Concubine Qian and several similarly dressed concubines were also behind, and her heart tightened.
The queen looked at the status of several people and did not speak. But the virtuous concubine next to her spoke: "Are a few show girls scared stupid?" Are you scared of the etiquette you just learned? ”
Hearing this, the rest of the people suddenly realized, hurriedly straightened up and saluted, and said in their mouths: "The queen is blessed, and the ladies are Jin'an." ”
The queen didn't speak, and the six of them just lay on the ground.
Shangguan Haiyin saw the queen pacing to her side from the afterglow: "Shangguan Xiunu, does this matter have anything to do with you?" ”
When Shangguan Haiyin was thinking about whether to say it, Qi Zexuan, who was standing next to her, spoke first: "Back to the queen's mother, it's too strange at this time." ”
"Oh? What does Qi Xiunu have to say? What's the oddity? ”
"Witchcraft has always been forbidden in the palace, but ...... The folk girl felt that someone used witchcraft in the east wing of this pre-show pavilion, and killed Ying Xiunu because of this. ”
Shangguan Haiyin suddenly admired Qi Zexuan, in this case, he could still talk nonsense with his eyes open, but it was extremely useful, and the queen was silent for a long time and said, "A few show girls, get up." Qi Xiunu, you come with me, I want to know the specific circumstances of this matter. ”
Behind a few people, Qi Zexuan followed the queen out, and Concubine Ruixian looked at Ying Wanrou's corpse lying on the ground with some disgust, and called to the imperial doctor: "Hurry up, deal with it, don't leave it here anymore, bad luck." After finishing speaking, he glanced at several show girls, and after his eyes fell on Shangguan Haiyin, he showed an unfathomable smile: "Shangguan show girl, you are really an eventful person, you have only been in the palace for three days, two people died, and there are so many incidents for no reason, but it is better than your sister." ”
After listening, Shangguan Haiyin looked up at Concubine Ruixian a little strangely, and Concubine Qian, who was not far from her, wondering in her heart, what did Concubine Qian rush to make her comment like this.
Concubine Ruixian's willow eyebrows were raised, revealing a gentle smile, Concubine Ruixian's appearance was still a little childish compared to the queen's mother. The queen is beautiful and majestic, but Concubine Ruixian is willow leaves, curved eyebrows, cherry mouth, slender waist and narrow arms, and looks weak and windless. When the face is expressionless, it makes people feel bitter and mean, but when they laugh, they sweep away the snarky look, and it seems to be very gentle.
"Ladies and sisters, don't panic, the victim will not be spared, as long as the rest of the people don't cause trouble, they can spend the past 20 days peacefully. Please also sisters, don't run to places you shouldn't go because you're bored, and don't do something that disrupts the rules of the palace because you're curious. As he spoke, he glanced at Shangguan Haiyin.
Shangguan Haiyin knew that she was ordering herself openly and secretly, but she could only bite the bullet.
As soon as Concubine Ruixian's words fell, the queen walked back with Qi Zexuan, Qi Zexuan stood firmly beside Shangguan Haiyin, and listened to the queen's words: "Shen Yueming, perform witchcraft in the palace and kill Ying's show girl." Escort to the Zongren Mansion and obey the fate. ”
After finishing speaking, the queen's eyes swept to Shangguan Haiyin, her eyes were deep, and she didn't leave anything for her this time, but sighed softly, and left the pre-show pavilion with the rest of the concubines.
Shen Yueming was also taken away with a dead face. Aunt Xue looked tiredly at the birth of six show girls, suddenly knelt down, and said with tears in her eyes: "The slave maid is twenty-four years old this year, and she will be able to leave the palace next year." I also ask a few show girls to show mercy and leave the slaves and maids a way to live, I beg you, don't cause trouble again these days......"
Looking at Aunt Xue's appearance, although Shangguan Haiyin couldn't bear it, she was helpless.
Ying Wanrou's death is not clear, Shen Yueming was escorted away unclearly, and the rest of the people around her seem to be people who will not kill her, but how can she rest assured of others, such as the queen, such as Concubine Ruixian, who is inexplicably hostile to herself? She did achieve her goal, Shen Yueming reaped the consequences, but pushed herself into another confusion.
Aunt Xue asked a few maids to take the show girl back to the room, and Qi Zexuan followed Shangguan Haiyin and walked back.
After entering the room, Qi Zexuan asked with some concern: "Did that slap just now hurt?" ”
Shangguan Haiyin didn't answer this question, but just said, "Sister Qi, what's the matter." ”
Qi Zexuan sighed: "You really don't remember me?" ”
Shangguan Haiyin looked at her suspiciously, she didn't remember that she had seen Qi Zexuan, why did she ask that?
"A few days before entering the palace, we met in Defeng Pavilion." Qi Zexuan said softly, which made Shangguan Haiyin suddenly remember the day she secretly ran out before entering the palace.
