166. 166: Mid-Autumn Festival Murder

After the tea and food were full, the rest of the work to clean up was taken away by Qiaoxin, and Wu Ying was happy and relaxed, walking around to eat.

But by the moonlight, looking at the shadow of only one person, the fireworks in the world receded, and on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, she was still alone after all.

"Alas" a person with a lost heart, walking around the city wall, she did not give up the idea of leaving the palace, but this high wall, really trapped her body, regret why she didn't know to practice martial arts before.

When you are tired of walking, you sit down against the root of the wall, look at the bright moon, sure enough, the scenery you saw in the mountains before is different, at that time you can still hear the chirping of insects and birds in your ears, stretch out your hand and seem to be able to touch the outline of the bright moon, in this palace, no matter how you straighten your hand, you can no longer touch the previous touch.

The palace feast, the Imperial Forest Army had to guard it strictly, and it was not until about the third watch that the crowd slowly dispersed.

After Yu Hongchou finished handling the affairs at hand, he was about to go home, when the people from the Regent's Mansion came over at this time.

"It's good that Lord Wei sees you here."

"What?"

"This." The person who came raised the cloth bag in his hand, "The prince asked me to hand it over to you, but I didn't wait at your house, and then I remembered that today the emperor invited the ministers, and you should be guarding the imperial city before coming to the Imperial Forest Army to find you." ”

"I'm in trouble."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll leave it to you, and I'll complete the task." In fact, he was really afraid of facing a character like Lord Wei, he usually didn't speak, and a look scared him so much that he didn't dare to say a word of nonsense.

If it weren't for the fact that he had been on an errand in the Regent's Mansion for a long time, he knew that Lord Wei was so paralyzed, and those who didn't know it would really stay away from him.

It's Ying'er, the lines on this belt, only she would embroider it with such care.

Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, you and I husband and wife, but we can't see each other.

I understand your intentions, and you are always there for me, no matter where you are.

Looking at such moonlight, Yu Hongchou stopped his steps and sat down against the corner of the wall, he didn't know what was inside the high city wall, which made him feel an urge to leave, and it was here, his heart was beating so fast! It's as if Ying'er is by his side.

Holding the strap in his hand, the heart is sweet, and the smile on his face is satisfied, maybe because of it.

Two people look at the high wall across the wall, knowing that the other party is not around, but there is such an illusion, he is by his side, and God will not play tricks on a pair of people who truly love each other.

As long as they love each other, they can feel each other's breath.

"Ahh

A terrible scream pierced the beautiful Mid-Autumn night.

The palace people in the Mingyue Palace ran around.

A eunuch who came in from outside asked the palace maid who was hurrying across from him, "What's the matter?" ”

"Little Lizi, hurry, go and inform the emperor that the concubine has fainted in the lotus pond."

"How could this pass out for no reason?"

"It seems to be seeing something in the lotus pond, oops, anyway, I just saw something that shouldn't be seen, the concubine Niangniang has just entered the palace, she is timid, she is so scared that she is unconscious, I dare to go to the palace to serve."

"Have you declared the imperial doctor?"

"I've already asked people to invite, the emperor is now spoiling the master of Mingyue Palace, if there is anything wrong with the concubine, the people in our Mingyue Palace will suffer."

"That's right, I'll go now."

Tonight is destined to be a restless night.

****************

"My lord, why are you here now!" Xu Chong, who usually follows Yu Hongchou's side, has a feeling of uneasiness on his face.

However, Yu Hongchou is used to seeing it, and if there is a mouse in the room, he will do the same.

"What's wrong?" Usually at this time, he was not late.

"You don't know yet, the inner chamberlain just came to report that a corpse was found in the lotus pond in the Mingyue Palace, and the concubine was faint last night, and now the emperor ordered the Imperial Forest Army to investigate thoroughly."

It is very common for a person to die in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, but the other party is the personal palace maid of Zhou Guifei, who is now in the limelight, so he made such a movement, "Where is the corpse now?" ”

"It's been brought back, and it's being tested."

"You take someone to check first, cordon off the scene, wait for the cause of death to be examined, and report back if there is any suspicion."

It was the first time for Yu Hongchou to be an errand boy in the palace, and he naturally didn't know about those flattering methods, Xu Chong had been here for a long time, and he looked like he hated iron but not steel, "My lord, this dead slave is a personal maid brought by the noble concubine Niangniang from her family, and the lady cares so much, can you send someone to perfunctory at will." ”

"So what else?" When he, the head of the Royal Forest, is very idle, he has a bunch of things under his hands.

"Oh, my lord, why don't you open your mind, you have to go to investigate the case yourself!" Xu Chong just stepped forward and dragged him away, afraid of his cold eyes.

"Trouble, a lot of trouble!" Yu Hongchou glanced at him coldly, meddling in this kind of thing would only cause trouble.

"If you don't go, there will only be more trouble." In order for our Imperial Guards not to be troubled, he let it go.

Yu Hongchou pondered again and again, "You lead the way and go to Mingyue Palace." "It's not because of the guards' incessant preaching, but the purpose of his entry into the palace, he has not been able to get close to the inner guards to detect the person who took aconitine, this time, I hope it will be a good opportunity.

"That's right."

"Lu Gongzi is really interested, and he is still basking in the sun here." Such a big thing has happened in this harem, and he can still sit still, and he is not diligent to share the emperor's worries.

"Huh? It's Father-in-law Ming. ”

Wu Ying tugged at the corners of her mouth, she was very contemptuous of Xiao Mingzi's behavior of not going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, one thing that has been said in the palace today, the concubine of Mingyue Palace passed by the lotus pond, and saw the tragic death of the personal maid Huiming, and she was so frightened that she has not woken up yet.

"Master Lu, you don't know what happened last night."

"Yes." She was very frank.

"Why is that boy still sitting still?"

"I'm waiting for you to come, father-in-law."

"Huh?"

"Men are not allowed to enter and leave the harem, violators should be beheaded, Lu Nian still wants to keep his head to marry his daughter-in-law." This is what Wu Ying said in her heart, before she secretly hid the token to leave the palace, she was charged with causing trouble in the palace, and now she wishes that Qin Yu's harem is as chaotic as possible, so that she can take advantage of the chaos to get out of the palace.

Xiao Mingzi didn't think much about it, but wore the emperor's dictation, "Lu Gongzi must find out the murderer, the emperor attaches great importance to this matter." ”

Yu Ying nodded, knowing Qin Yu's plans, showing his concern for the concubine, making the prime minister believe in his heart for his daughter even more, so as to fully assist him.

"Another point, the slave wants to remind Gongzi, the head of the Royal Forest Army, don't get too close to him."

"Huh?" The Commander of the Guards? Who is it?

"The head of the Royal Forest Army was brought up by the regent, and Lu Gongzi is a smart man, so he knows what to do later."

Wu Ying nodded, but since it was promoted by Qin Yan, it shouldn't be bad.
