"But paper can't always contain the fire, and there is a little palace maid who risked death and overstepped her authority to beg the queen to save her little sister."

"The queen originally felt a little inexplicable, so she punished the little palace maid and drove her out of Kunning Palace."

"But the little palace maid still didn't give up, and still knelt outside the Kunning Palace and begged bitterly."

"The queen was moved by compassion and summoned the little palace maid in to inquire."

"The little palace maid wept and told the queen that her little sister had never come back since she was summoned away by the head of the imperial dining room."

"The head of the imperial dining room is the old man in the palace, although the queen mother listened to the words of the little palace maid at that time, she did not immediately send someone to arrest the chief of the imperial dining room to inquire."

"Oh? Why is that? Even if the head of the imperial dining room is an old man in the palace, the queen should not be so scrupulous. ”

"What Lord Luo said is not wrong, the queen mother does not dare to move the head of the imperial dining room easily because"

"It's better to guess Lord Luo."

"It's because the head of the imperial dining room is Concubine Ling's person, and Concubine Ling's mother and the queen's mother have always been incompatible."

After thinking about it for a while, Luo Wushuang gave his own answer.

The ancient palm servant nodded appreciatively.

"That's right, Concubine Ling Niangniang favored the harem at that time, and there was the support of General Chu who worked hard for the emperor."

"The honor and clothing of the year were close to Kunning Palace, and even the queen was robbed of the limelight by Concubine Ling."

"Although we are also secretly investigating the head of the imperial dining room, we have also collected some evidence."

"Since the queen mother has human and physical evidence. Why is the queen mother?"

"Why don't you go directly to the emperor?"

Gu Zhangshou laughed and continued: "A stunned young man like Lord Luo doesn't understand the depth of the harem, he just has some inconsequential evidence. What should I do if the other person bites back?"

Luo Wushuang originally deliberately created an image for the ancient palm servant that he didn't understand the affairs of the inner palace, and when he saw the ancient palm servant say that he was stunned, he knew that he had succeeded.

Of course, the queen can't go to the emperor with these innocuous evidence, Concubine Ling is already deeply loved by the emperor, and even if the head of the imperial dining room is Concubine Ling's person, can it be proved that Concubine Ling is the person who controls everything behind it?

Luo Wushuang suspected that the series of strange things in the imperial dining room should have nothing to do with Concubine Ling. It's inseparable from the queen.

But at present, it is not broken, but it is just going down according to the meaning of the ancient palm servant.

"If the queen didn't send someone to arrest the head of the imperial dining room, then why did the head of the imperial dining room end up like this?"

"What's more, he hanged himself not far from the concubine's palace?"

"Concubine Ling shouldn't have been in the palace at the time, right?"

Luo Wushuang asked three questions in a row. He looked up at the locust tree, trying to find clues from a distant era.

"It seems that the Empress Dowager has really found the right person, congratulations to Lord Luo for passing the Empress Dowager's test."

The ancient palm attendant looked at Luo Wushuang with an appreciative expression, Luo Wushuang would really be a little surprised.

Although knowing that the Empress Dowager would not leave herself behind for no reason. and let the maids beside him take him back to the place where the crime occurred. There must be a deep meaning in this.

But Luo Wushuang didn't know why it had anything to do with the test.

"Weichen doesn't understand what Gu Zhangshou means." Luo Wushuang humbly asked.

"The Empress Dowager told the old slave before that if Lord Luo smelled the foul smell in Qiluo Palace and didn't see any other clues, and didn't panic at all, then he had passed the first level."

Only then did Luo Wushuang remember that the foul smell in the Qiluo Palace must have the effect of interfering with people's emotions.

There are herbs on the rivers and lakes, but they are really messing with people's minds, which can make people lose control and go crazy, and at worst make people bloodthirsty.

It seems that the Empress Dowager really made a ******** in order to test herself.

But where does Luo Wushuang know. The smell in the side hall of Qiluo Palace was far from being as simple as she imagined.

Luo Wushuang thought about it, he was not an 'ordinary person' in the first place. Coupled with the lack of emotion, it is really difficult to affect yourself.

"The second level is to test the integrity of Lord Luo, and whether he can have the courage to report after mastering the evidence."

Luo Wushuang remembered that he had just followed the train of thought of the ancient palm servant, and asked the empress why he didn't just take the evidence to meet the emperor.

"The third level is to test whether Lord Luo can detect clues."

Luo Wushuang understood that it was his last three consecutive questions that moved the Gu Zhang, no one could threaten the life of the head of the imperial dining room, why did he hang himself quietly not far from the concubine's dormitory?

What's more, Concubine Ling can be regarded as the 'benefactor master' behind the head of the imperial dining room, after all, the position of the head of the imperial dining room is very rich, if it is just an ordinary slave, where can he rely on the power of the nobles to ascend to the position?

Since he relied on Concubine Ling to ascend to the throne, how could there be such a slave who would take revenge? If you don't die, you want to hang yourself in front of your benefactor's door?

Concubine Ling favored the harem at that time, even if the head of the imperial dining room had a private relationship with Concubine Ling, the head of the imperial dining room often came to Qiluo Palace to walk around.

Not to mention that the guards patrolling the night will find the body of the head of the imperial dining room for the first time, a huge Qiluo Palace, whether it is the outer hall or the inner hall, there will be people waiting on duty all night.

As soon as the head of the imperial dining room took out the rope and tied the knot, someone would come out to ask for a stop.

Or as soon as the head of the imperial dining room kicked off the bench, a group of little eunuchs would come crying and shouting to save the head of the imperial dining room, where could they die quietly?

Therefore, Luo Wushuang's judgment was that Concubine Ling was not in the palace at that time, maybe she went home to save her relatives, or she went out of the palace with the royal driver.

Therefore, there will be no one on duty in the outer hall of Qiluo Palace, and the guards who patrol the night know that the concubine is out of the palace, so they also reduce the number of times they inspect Qiluo Palace.

Therefore, the head of the imperial dining room can hang himself quietly.

The above is Luo Wushuang's judgment, but it is impossible for her to give it all up.

But the Gu Zhang's next words still surprised Luo Wushuang, and he only heard the Gu Zhang's words:

"The head of the imperial dining room was hanged naked and naked from the locust tree, and he was skinned."

After Luo Wushuang listened, he couldn't help but feel numb in his back.

One person was skinned and hung on a tree (to be continued.) )
