"It's not." Ling Ruo hurriedly defended, and then knelt down and said earnestly: "The concubine didn't mean to hide the emperor, it's just that the concubine and Imperial Doctor Xu have long been in the past, and as early as the day the concubine entered the palace, it has nothing to do with him, so why mention it again." ”

"A good sentence, 'If it has nothing to do with it, why mention it again', you can't say anything to people, if you really don't have anything, why do you want to hide it from me?" Looking at this favorite concubine, Yinzhen was angry and hateful, if he changed to other concubines, he was afraid that he would have already been beaten into the cold palace, how could he still kneel here and answer. In addition to Mei'er, Ling Ruo is the woman he values the most, and this concern cannot be compared even with Nian's.

"The concubine also doesn't want the emperor to misunderstand." After saying this, Ling Ruo said solemnly: "Please believe in the concubine body, the concubine body and Imperial Physician Xu were in love and stopped at courtesy, and there was no way to exceed the etiquette; As for the relationship between the patient and the doctor after entering the palace, although they met unexpectedly, it was only a relationship between the patient and the doctor. ”

"Is that really all there is?" Yin Zhen sneered, and without waiting for Ling Ruo to answer, a series of questions were already coming to Ling Ruo like a storm, "Then please ask Concubine Xi to tell me, why did Xu Rongyuan enter the palace as a imperial doctor?" Why do you refuse to marry Jing Xue in every possible way? Why did he go to Tongzhou to make a special trip to resign to you? ”

The first two questions are just that, they are indeed related to themselves, but the last one, Rong Yuan came to change the medicine for Hongli in passing, why did he make a special trip to resign?

"Your Majesty ......" she wanted to explain, but unfortunately Yinzhen didn't want to listen, and after taking a few breaths, she pointed to the door of the palace and said: "I don't want to see you now, so I will go out of the house immediately, and without my order in the future, I am not allowed to set foot in this southern study again." ”

Seeing that Yinzhen was angry at the moment, Ling Ruo knew that no matter what she said, he would not be able to listen to it, so she had to leave gloomily, and soon after stepping out of the palace door, she could vaguely hear the sound of the bowl of porcelain falling to the ground, she shook her head, and helped Nanqiu's hand to leave.

Tonight's events are full of weirdness, and it is clear that someone is secretly calculating and slandering her, and she must quickly find out, otherwise this loss will only get bigger and bigger.

Back in Chengqian Palace, she had just summoned Shui Xiu and a few people to the front, and before she could speak, she saw that several of them had red eyes, and they looked like they wanted to speak and stopped, knowing that they must have something to say, and it was inconvenient to say it in front of Nanqiu and others. At the moment, under the pretext of being tired, he wanted to freshen up and rest, and Nanqiu and the others retreated.

Sure enough, after only a few of them were left in the house, Shui Xiu, the eldest person, stepped forward and choked up: "Master, a letter from outside the palace said that something happened to Xiaoluzi." ”

Ling Ruo was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shui Xiu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said: "The Mao brothers sent a letter to the slave and maid, saying that Xiaoluzi suddenly disappeared a few days ago, and no one was found, but they were afraid that the master would be worried, so they didn't dare to tell the master, but they sent someone to look for it in private, and it wasn't until yesterday that they accidentally found Xiaoluzi all over his body in the wild, and when they carried Xiaoluzi back, he was no longer good, and forced them to tell the master, saying that they must be careful of the people in the palace, someone is dealing with the master." ”

Ling Ruo didn't ask about this, but said anxiously: "What about Xiao Luzi, can he still be saved?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Shui Yue's tears that she had endured for a long time suddenly fell, and An'er, the youngest of them, couldn't stop crying, sobbing: "Xiaoluzi is dead, woo......"

In the past, when they were in the palace, they had a very good relationship, and if they were counted seriously, they were only two or three months apart, and the parting words at that time were still in their ears, and they never thought that they were separated by yin and yang, how could they not be sad.

He's dead? Xiao Luzi is dead? Ling Ruo sat there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time, he still remembered the nervous appearance of Xiao Luzi and Li Wei when they first came to Jingsiju, and for more than ten years, he had been loyal to his side, although he was not as smart and capable as Li Wei, but that loyalty was average.

She let go of the small way, because she couldn't bear him to be punished by the palace, so she thought about simply letting him get rid of the status of a slave, marry a virtuous wife, give birth to a few smart and clever children, and live the rest of his life happily, who knows......

Thinking of the sad place, Ling Ruo couldn't help but shed tears, dripping on his smoky-colored clothes, smudged like flowers, but it contained deep sadness.

"Master." Shui Xiu suddenly knelt down and cried: "You must avenge Xiao Luzi, when the Mao brothers were preparing for the burial of Xiao Luzi's body, they found that in addition to the miserable flesh wounds, his lower body was ...... The words behind the lower body ...... were a little difficult to speak, and it took a while to bite the fine silver teeth and say: "Even the lower body has been trampled on, which is no different from the eunuchs in the palace." ”

"It's the palace that can't stand the way." Ling Ruo couldn't stop crying, her expression was even more sad, she could already guess that someone must have asked Xiao Luzi about the matter between her and Imperial Doctor Xu, Xiao Luzi refused to say, so those people tortured him in different ways, and even came up with a way to purify his body, so Xiao Luzi is not a complete man when he dies. But they didn't expect that Xiao Luzi would rather die than do something like a traitor, so they threw Xiao Luzi who was dying in the wild, wanting him to be eaten by wild dogs and die.

And Yilan should be the second candidate after Xiao Luzi, but unfortunately she is not as loyal as Xiao Luzi, and told all her things, so she had the question in the south study tonight.

Ling Ruoqiang endured the grief in his heart, helped Shui Xiu and said, "Don't worry, the palace will never let go of the person who harms Xiaoluzi." The pain he inflicted on Xiao Luzi will be repaid by this palace in the coming day. ”

Shui Xiu nodded vigorously, got up with teary eyes and said, "The master has already guessed who wants to harm the master?" ”

"There are no more than three people in the palace who have grievances with the palace, and who have the ability to deal with the palace." After coldly saying this, she ordered: "At present, the palace gate guards have not been replaced, Shui Xiu, you go and ask, see if there is a strange woman entering the palace today, and if so, ask which palace the woman went to." ”

All people who enter and leave the palace gate will leave a record, including the time of entry and exit and the whereabouts, etc., which can be known by asking.

After Shui Xiu agreed, Ling Ruo ordered Shui Yue to find out which places Yinzhen had been to in the past few days and who he had seen, so as to be detailed.

The two went for a long time before coming back, but the answers they asked were surprisingly the same, both pointing to Kunning Palace.

Ling Ruo slapped his palm on the armrest hatefully, and said angrily: "Sure enough, it's her, the queen, what a queen, actually used such despicable and vicious means, even the snake and scorpion poisonous woman is afraid that it is not as good as her." ”

The remaining three people heard the word queen, and they also hated it so much that they couldn't wait to eat its flesh raw, but she was the queen, the lord of the six palaces, and she had always acted carefully, and it was difficult to find loopholes.

Ling Ruo also knows this problem, not to mention that in this matter, the Nala clan took the lead, and Yinzhen was angry with her again, she now wants to counter the Nala clan, how difficult is it.

It's just that no matter how difficult it is, she has to do it, and she must not let Xiaoluzi die in vain!

"Shui Xiu, tomorrow I will pass the edict of the palace to go out of the palace, and let Yilan come to the palace to see the palace." To solve the bell, you still need to tie the bell, and if you want to solve the current dilemma, you can only start from Yilan.
