"Let's think about it from the perspective of 'people'." Xia Xiaodong reminded.

"People?"

"Yes, no matter what you do or how you do it, it must be about people. Can you sue me, who would want your mother to die? "There has to be a motivation for doing things.

"Those side concubines and concubines are naturally jealous of the main mother." Ning Junwu replied naturally.

These people have a variety of backgrounds, but no matter which one they are, they can't compare with Concubine Yan Wang, they must be envious, jealous and hateful in their hearts, and when the time is right, they will harm others.

And not only will it hurt its mother, but it will continue to harm itself.

Ning Junwu has heard similar statements since he was a child, and I don't know how many times.

"What kind of person is your mother?" Xia Xiaodong did not dwell on Ning Junwu's answer, but asked a new question.

Ning Junwu thought for a while and said with a smile: "My mother was born in Duansu Palace, she should be a very standard lady, and her temperament should be very gentle. I haven't heard anyone say anything bad about her. ”

"If you hurt your mother, any concubine or side concubine is fine, can you straighten it out?"

"No, you can't." Ning Junwu thought that Xia Xiaodong didn't understand this, and explained in detail: "If there is a side concubine with a good family background and a son, there are also people who can be corrected." But generally speaking, because it is possible to find a step-room with better conditions, it is rare to find a corrective situation. Moreover, my father did not have the right person around him. ”

"If not, do they know who will be your father's stepfamily?"

"I'm afraid that even my father himself doesn't know about this, how can they know."

"So, the concubine harmed his wife, the crime is not small, right?"

"Yes, if you send the official for conviction, you can delay it. It's not much better if you don't send it to the official. Ning Junwu replied without hesitation.

Don't send the official just to look good on the face. The concubine, who was said to have intentionally or unintentionally harmed Princess Yan, was killed.

"Even if you are executed, it is estimated that your family and your mother's maiden family will not let go of that person's family, right?"

"That's nature." Ning Junwu faintly felt Xia Xiaodong's meaning, and his face became more and more serious.

Xia Xiaodong didn't continue to ask, and instead silently dealt with his bowl of egg drop soup, giving Ning Junwu time to think carefully.

Don't look at it as just a bowl of egg drop soup in the small shop, but it is quite well done, the egg flowers are golden in color, with tender daylily and shredded cabbage, and a little mustard, the thickening is just right, the entrance is salty and fresh, and the taste is very good.

Ning Junwu is not stupid.

Sometimes, questions are more powerful than answers.

A concubine, risking that her family would be implicated, was deliberately killing the gentle and obedient concubine, for what? She's sick, huh?

For the impossible rectification, or for the next concubine who doesn't know who it is, but most of them are worse? You must know that the status of the stepfamily is much worse than the original match, so it is almost certain that Princess Yan's succession is not as good as Princess Yan's.

For years, all that has been buzzing in my ears is that your mother was killed by those little sluts. I always take it for granted, the problem is just to find out which slut it is.

But now I suddenly found that the little sluts ...... There seems to be no reason to harm the concubine.

Unless ......, the concubine has done something vicious, which makes people think about revenge. Ning Junwu shook his head vigorously, impossible! It must not be so.

"What's possible, you can talk about it." Ning Junwu suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, and his voice became weaker.

"Oh, do you know Peach Blossom?" Xia Xiaodong blinked, not knowing why Ning Junwu's love seemed to have gone bad.

"Peach Blossom?" What does this have to do with Princess Yan, there were no peach blossoms at that time.

"Peach blossom shop is that some people get peach blossoms, and they will have red rashes all over their bodies and become peach blossoms." Xia Xiaodong explained: "There is also a situation called sick wine, just drink a little wine, you will get drunk, you will be red, maybe you will vomit and faint or something, have you heard of it?" ”

"Yes." Ning Junwu was still sullen.

"Both of these are examples, that is, some people have a special reaction to something, and even some react violently and can be fatal." Xia Xiaodong pointed to the peanuts on the table: "For example, if someone eats only one peanut, his throat may be swollen and breathless, and he may die." ”

Ma Dan, is it easy to explain an allergy.

"Huh?" Ning Junwu came to his senses a little: "You mean, the food that the concubine brought from her hometown, although it is non-toxic, but maybe my mother has a special reaction to that kind of thing?" ”

"That's one possibility." Xia Xiaodong was a little distracted by the peanuts she had just pointed out, and then continued after a while: "Actually, sometimes things are complicated, but the truth is incredibly simple. Other times, on the contrary, it looks simple, but underneath it is complicated. ”

"Therefore, my opinion is that Ling Tang was either an accident, maybe he ate something that caused a special reaction, maybe it had nothing to do with that meal, but he just happened to have a heart attack after the meal, so he died."

"Or, it's actually killed." Xia Xiaodong's voice was cold: "If you think about this direction, you need to think about a few questions clearly. ”

"Who, there is a motive to harm her."

"She's dead, who, will get the benefits."

"Who has the ability to arrange an assassination against the princess."

"Before we think about that, though, there's one more thing to think about." Xia Xiaodong raised his eyes and looked at Ning Junwu carefully: "That is, do you really want to figure out this matter?" ”

Letting go is also an attitude.

"I have to go back." Xia Xiaodong didn't wait for Ning Junwu's thoughts, these were not something that could be decided at once.

"Don't go." The voice is low but resolute.

Xia Xiaodong paused for a moment.

"Don't go." This time the voice was a little higher.

"......" Xia Xiaodong continued to stay after all. After all, after talking about the old things of the palace together, they left immediately, which seems to be a little unkind.

didn't let Xia Xiaodong go, but Ning Junwu didn't continue to say anything, just silently added tea to her teacup.

The tea in the small shop is not really tea leaves, but fried barley, washed with boiling water, with a strong wheat fragrance, drinking it is very comfortable.

"Before, I really thought about Qiao Qiao'er." Ning Junwu suddenly mentioned this person they all knew.

The girl who was fair-skinned and beautiful and always liked to wear red clothes was naturally remembered by Xia Xiaodong. It's just that it's hard to get in touch with Ning Junwu.

Is this a confession to an ex? The corners of Xia Xiaodong's mouth curled slightly, waiting to hear the following.
