Hearing this news, Ling Ruo was not too surprised, but Shui Yue's hand shook, and the tip of the hairpin of the golden begonia bead flower accidentally crossed Ling Ruo's scalp, making her brows frown slightly, raised her hand to take the step shake from Shui Yue's hand, and steadily put it on the bun against herself in the mirror, and asked, "How did you die?" ”

"I heard that it was a hanging beam that committed suicide, and when it was found, the body was already stiff.|i^"

"What did Concubine Yi say?" The person died in Kangshou Palace, and the person who found it would naturally tell Concubine Yi as soon as possible.

"Concubine Jing committed suicide for no reason, and Concubine Yi couldn't think of a reason, and the most plausible thing was that Concubine Jing missed the first emperor too much and followed the first emperor; has sent someone to tell the emperor, as for Cining Palace, because the Queen Mother is still sick, I am afraid that it will aggravate the Queen Mother's condition, so Concubine Yi did not let people report. These words were all probed by Shui Xiu from the mouth of the little palace maid of Shoukang Palace.

The plain hand slowly stroked the neatly combed sideburns, one by one, the corners of the woman's mouth in the bronze mirror were slightly upturned, and more than ten or twenty years of forbearance were finally avenged at this moment.

joy, sorrow, pleasure, sadness; Countless emotions are intertwined in the bottom of my heart, and for a while, I can't tell what it tastes like; It's just that when she was a child, she was playing in the courtyard with Shi Qiuci, and she was really happy at that time......

If she hadn't wanted to enter the palace at the beginning, maybe it would have changed completely now.

Just, if exactly just if; Everything has passed, and from now on, there will be no such person as Shi Qiuci, and she will not think about it again.

Thinking of this, the complexity in his eyes gradually faded, and he returned to his usual calm, and got up and An'er and Shui Yue changed his clothes for himself.|i^

Just as An'er was squatting on the ground to smooth her skirt, there was a knock on the door outside, but it was Yang Hai, and An'er muttered a little strangely, "What is he doing so early in the morning?" ”

Ling Ruochen's washing up has always been the responsibility of a few of them who followed the palace from the palace, and Yang Hai and Nanqiu also knew about it, so they usually came over to say hello during breakfast, and it was rare to come over early in the morning.

Shui Xiu vaguely understood something, after she helped her master come back from Shoukang Palace last night, the master had ordered her to summon Yang Hai, and then saw Yang Hai leading a few little eunuchs to leave Chengqian Palace in the rain, and when she passed Yang Hai's room early this morning, she found that it was quiet, not like someone, and it was likely that she did not return overnight.

She didn't say anything, just pushed An'er and said, "Why don't you open the door quickly if you ask so much." ”

"Hey." An'er agreed, walked over to open the door, and as soon as the two-edged carved Zhu door was opened, she could hear her snort softly, and then said: "Gonggong Yang, where have you been, how did you get up and down the top and bottom, like you just fished out of the river?" ”

Because the door was only opened a small one, she was blocked there, and others couldn't see clearly, until she turned sideways and let Yang Hai in, only to see Yang Hai's appearance at this time, it was really miserable, soaked and soaked, not to mention, the brim of the hat kept dripping water, and there were water traces all the way where he walked.

Facing the dumbfounded feelings of Shui Xiu and the others, Yang Hai smiled slightly bitterly, walked up to Ling Ruo and said to Qian'er: "The slave asks the master for peace." ”

"How?" Ling Ruo asked, she was the only one in the hall who didn't show any surprise at Yang Hai's appearance.

Yang Hai hurriedly lifted his spirits and replied carefully: "The master is clever, the servants and others stayed outside the Shoukang Palace overnight, and sure enough, after dawn, they found that Juan'er beside Concubine Jing sneakily came out of it, and looked at the direction she went, it should be Kunning Palace." The minions followed along the road, grabbed her as they passed through an uninhabited alleyway, and retrieved a letter from her. ”

Yang Hai said as he took out a letter from his arms, because it was wrapped in oiled paper, the letter was not wet at all. Ling Ruo took it and opened it, and the next moment, a sarcastic smile immediately rose to the corner of her mouth, and it was exactly as she expected.

In addition to exposing her and Rong Yuan's previous affairs, she also said conclusively that even after marrying Yinzhen, she still maintained an improper relationship with Rong Yuan, and later alleged in the letter that she was afraid that the matter would be leaked, so she forced her to commit suicide.

If this letter falls into the hands of the queen, I am afraid that it will really be very troublesome, and I have an affair with the imperial doctor, forcing the concubine to commit suicide, and any one thing is enough to make myself irreversible. Shi Qiuci knew that he would not escape death, so he wrote this letter before he died, and his heart could not be described as vicious.

Until her death, she never had a trace of remorse. It is not a pity for such a person to die.

"Go and bring the brazier." Ling Ruo said coldly.

Shui Xiu and the others didn't know what the letter was, but seeing that Ling Ruo's face was not good, they knew that it would not be a good thing, so they quickly agreed to bring the brazier, and the flames were scorching and burning in the copper basin, and a little spark came out from time to time.

The letter paper was thrown into the brazier by Ling Ruo along with the envelope, and the paper was immediately swallowed up by the tongue of fire and turned into ashes, no matter what earth-shattering secrets were on the letter, they all turned into nothing at this moment.

After An'er brought the brazier down, Ling Ruo clapped his hands and said to Yang Hai and Yan, who were still kneeling on the ground: "This time you have done a good job, you all go down and change your clothes, don't catch a cold when it's cold." As for tonight......"

Yang Hai's heart sank, and he hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Master rest assured, the minions and others must be tight-lipped and will never leak half a word." ”

"This is the best, as long as you work hard and have a heart of loyalty to the Lord, this palace will naturally not treat you badly." Now that she is in the palace, she will only encounter more and more miscellaneous things than when she was in the palace before, although the people of Shui Xiu are loyal, but they alone are far from enough, she needs more available people.

"The minion will not disappoint his master." After saying this, Yang Hai said again: "Dare to ask the master, how to deal with Juan'er?" ”

Ling Ruo groaned and did not answer immediately, according to the usual practice in the palace, it was the most stable to extinguish her mouth, but Ran Juan'er just obeyed orders, and she did not have any grudges with herself.

Although her hands were already stained with a lot of blood, she still persevered, unwilling to do too much killing.

After thinking for a while, she spoke: "You can do it, if this person is still honest, leave her a way to live,; On the other hand, if you want to avenge her master, or have any other thoughts, you will hand it over to the Shen Criminal Division, and say that she stole Concubine Jing's things and wanted to run away and was caught by you, and the Shen Criminal Division will deal with it. ”

"Minions understand." Yang Hai bowed down, looking at the water trails all the way away, Shui Xiu whispered: "Does the master really believe him?" ”

Ling Ruo smiled lightly and said, "Have you seen that letter?" After Shui Xiu nodded, he said: "If Yang Hai has two hearts, then he will definitely try to fold it after the letter is in hand, and the letter on the left and right is just wrapped in oil paper and has not been sealed with wax." Yang Hai stayed outside Shoukang Palace all night, in order to hide people's eyes, several of them did not have umbrellas, and there was no place on their bodies that was not wet, if the letter was opened, then there would definitely be some traces left on it, but no, the letter was clean, it can be seen that Yang Hai had not read the letter; As for believing him or not, it's too early to tell, so let's take our time. ”
