"Doctor Han, please stay!" In Weiyang Palace, Han Yan was walking in a hurry and was suddenly stopped by someone.

Han Yan stopped, turned her head to look, and saw a woman dressed as a palace maid, Han Yan looked at the face and couldn't help but be surprised: "The girl is shouting?" ”

The woman nodded, stepped forward and said, "Doctor Han, I am a slave maid of Changle Palace, and the Queen Mother has summoned Doctor Han to the palace for deliberations." ”

"The Queen Mother has something to summon to discuss?" Han Yan was stunned, as a doctor, his duty is to stay in the palace and act according to the emperor's edict at any time.

"Girl, may I ask what is the matter with the Queen Mother's summons?" Although Han Yan wasn't sure if the palace maid knew, it was better to ask first.

The woman replied: "I don't know what the slave and maid are specifically, I just heard the Queen Mother say that it is a matter of Your Majesty, and I ask Dr. Han not to make a noise." ”

"Oh..."Han Yan bowed slightly, no wonder she wanted to send a little palace maid over to pass on the message, so she nodded immediately: "Okay!" Ask the girl to go back to the Queen Mother, and Han Yan will go later. ”

The woman bowed and turned away.

Not long after, Han Yan came to Changle Palace as ordered, but saw that the palace people on duty outside the Queen Mother's dormitory on weekdays were gone, Han Yan was greatly surprised, so she didn't dare to stay and walked into the palace quickly.

Entering the palace and looking around, but seeing that there was no one around, Han Yan leaned over and said loudly: "Your subordinate Han Yan entered the palace to meet the queen mother!" There was no movement in the middle of the sound, although Han Yan felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't leave just like that, so she had to stand in the hall and said loudly: "Your Majesty Han Yan has come to see the Queen Mother!" ”

After a long time, she still didn't see the queen mother come out, Han Yan didn't dare to stay for a long time when she saw this, and was about to turn around and leave, but she saw a person leaning under the lamppost in the northeast corner of the hall. ”

The maid didn't respond for a long time, Han Yan hurriedly approached, patted the maid on the shoulder, and said, "Girl..."

Unexpectedly, with this beat, the palace maid slowly fell to the ground, Han Yan looked at it fixedly, and couldn't help but be surprised, this was the woman who went to Weiyang Palace to spread the word about herself just now, only to see her lying on the ground with her hair scattered, her eyelids bleeding, her lips were cyanosis, and her torn clothes revealed blue and purple skin.

"Ahh Someone's coming! Someone's coming! Han Yan was wondering why the palace maid died violently in the palace, but she heard an exclamation behind her, and when she looked back, she saw that Prime Minister Tian Wei walked into the palace at some point, and looked at the scene in front of her and turned pale with fright and shouted loudly.

"Prime Minister, I..." Han Yan was about to argue, but was surrounded by the guards who rushed over after hearing the noise.

"Bold Han Yan, dare to enter the Queen Mother's bedroom to commit murder! Say, "What is your intention?" Tian Wei looked at Han Yan and shouted.

"The prime minister misunderstood, this person was not harmed by Han Yan!" Han Yan hurriedly explained.

Tian Wei snorted coldly and questioned, "If it weren't for you, how would you be here?" ”

Han Yan explained: "Prime Minister Rongyu, Han Yan entered Changle Palace at the mouth of the Queen Mother, and she didn't see the Queen Mother for a long time, but when she was about to leave, she saw this woman die violently here, and Han Yan didn't know what happened!" ”

While she was talking, there was a sound of the Queen Mother returning to the palace from outside the hall, which made Han Yan surprised again, didn't the Queen Mother summon herself to the palace to discuss matters, how could she go back to the palace? Han Yan had to be puzzled, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Liu Ling helping the Queen Mother slowly walking towards her.

"What happened?" Seeing a large group of people in the hall, the Queen Mother couldn't help frowning and asked.

Tian Wei hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Queen Mother, the upper doctor Han Yan committed murder in Changle Palace, and also killed a maidservant in the palace. ”

"What?" The Queen Mother was taken aback when she heard this, and looked at Tian Wei in disbelief, "Is this serious?" ”

"It's true!" Tian Wei said.

The Queen Mother's gaze turned to Han Yan and shouted, "Han Yan, you are so bold!" In broad daylight, you dare to commit murder in my Changle Palace! ”

"The Queen Mother is good, this person was definitely not killed by Han Yan, and I hope that the Queen Mother will be able to see it!" Han Yan hurriedly leaned over to explain.

"People are people in the palace of mourning, if you hadn't killed you, how would you be here?" The Queen Mother's tone was questioning inexplicably.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the maid did not go to the Weiyang Palace to pass the Queen Mother's message, saying that the Queen Mother had something to discuss with the minister, and the minister hurried to the Changle Palace, and did not see the Queen Mother for a long time, and when he wanted to leave, he saw this person die violently in the palace, and the minister did not know what happened!" Han Yan came one hundred and fifty ten.

"Ridiculous!" The Queen Mother said angrily, "When did the mourning family summon you? Your lie is too flawed! ”

"That's what the Queen Mother said! At that time, the minister also doubted why the queen mother's edict was not conveyed by the messenger of Changle Palace, but the servant girl instructed the minister to discuss the matter related to His Majesty, and asked the minister not to make a noise. Han Yan said, "Now that I think about it, there are indeed too many loopholes, and it is the minister's carelessness!" ”

"Hmph," the Queen Mother sneered, "the messenger is dead, and I don't let you talk nonsense!" ”

Han Yan hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, Han Yan is definitely not a woman!" When the maidservant girl passed on the message, someone would see it, and if the queen mother didn't believe it, she could summon the Weiyang palace guards to come and ask! ”

"Good! Hugh said that the mourners have wronged you! The Queen Mother's face sank, "Come on, go to Weiyang Palace!" ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Han Yan said.

"Hugh to thank you! Things haven't been clarified yet, and the mourning family is also convincing to you! The Queen Mother flicked her sleeves and sat down with Liu Ling's support.

After a while, the palace people who went to inquire came back and said, "Queen Mother, the maidservant Ping'er did go to Weiyang Palace from time to time!" ”

Han Yan was about to take a long breath, but unexpectedly, the palace man said again: "But they only saw Ping'er and Doctor Han talking privately and turned away, and they didn't know what the two were talking about." ”

"Han Yan, can you hear it, don't say that the mourning family wronged you, except for Ping'er, no one can prove that the mourning family called you. Now that Ping'er is dead, what else do you have to say? ”

Han Yan pondered for a moment and said, "The Queen Mother's matter is doubtful, if Han Yan wants to kill this person, why did she choose to do it in the Queen Mother's bedroom?" And why was the temple empty when it was started? ”

"This—" The Queen Mother was speechless for a moment.

"Doctor Han, who said that the palace was empty when you committed the murder?" Prime Minister Tian Wei said suddenly.

Han Yan raised her eyes in shock, only to see Tian Wei bowing to the Queen Mother and saying: "Queen Mother, today the courtier brother came to Changle Palace to say hello, just entered the queen mother's dormitory, I saw Han Yan covering this woman's mouth and nose, the courtier brother asked loudly when he saw this, Han Yan let go of his hands in a panic, but this woman had already died of anger. ”

"Prime Minister, why did you wronged me?" Hearing this, Han Yan said angrily, "When the prime minister entered the palace, this woman had already fallen to the ground, how could you see me covering her mouth and nose?" ”

"Second brother, is what you said true?" Seeing that the two of them insisted on their own words and argued, the Queen Mother couldn't help asking.

"Queen Mother, when did your brother lie in front of the Queen Mother?" Tian Wei looked at the Queen Mother earnestly, and her tone sank, "The younger brother has no holiday with Dr. Han, why should you wronged him?" Besides, Dr. Han is a popular person next to His Majesty, if his brother wrongs him, His Majesty will not spare the minister! ”

"Prime Minister, you..." Looking at Tian Wei's words, Han Yan was speechless.

The Queen Mother nodded and said sharply to Han Yan: "Han Yan, last time the Son of Heaven was in the car, the mourning family has already let you go." Now you have committed murder in the mourning palace again, the evidence of this matter is ironclad, you cannot deny it, human life is clear, and the mourning family is ruthless! "The Queen Mother has always trusted her younger brother, and she has a gap with Han Yan first, so she has long been convinced in her heart after listening to what Tian Wei said.

"Someone! Put Han Yan into the Tingwei Mansion to investigate! The Queen Mother said loudly. As soon as these words came out, Tian Wei and Liu Ling met their eyes, and an imperceptible smile appeared on their faces.

"Wait!" Liu Che, who rushed to the palace after hearing the news, hurriedly entered the palace, and when he heard the words, he walked quickly to the queen mother, bowed his head and said: "The son has seen the queen mother!" The queen mother, the son just heard about this, the son never believed that Han Yan would commit murder in Changle Palace, and asked the queen mother to investigate! ”

The Queen Mother was displeased when she heard this: "Your Majesty, now that the evidence is conclusive, could it be that the mourning family wronged him?" ”

"The queen mother, the sons and daughters definitely did not mean this, but this matter is full of suspicions, and I hope that the queen mother will allow the sons to investigate in detail!" Liu Che said in a deep voice.

The Queen Mother said: "This matter is clear, what are the doubts?" ”

Liu Cheyan said: "Queen Mother, if Han Yan wants to kill this palace maid, why did she choose to do it in the palace? This is one of them. If the person was really killed by Han Yan, what was the motive? This is the second one. Third, why is it too coincidental that Han Yan's murder is empty in the hall? ”

"Your Majesty has two doubts in advance, and the mourning family can't answer them, but your uncle can answer the third question." The Queen Mother said unhurriedly.

"Uncle?" Liu Che's eyes swept when he heard this, and when he saw Tian Wei on his side, he asked, "How does the prime minister answer?" ”

Tian Wei bowed forward and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has already told the Queen Mother about this just now, when Dr. Han committed the murder, he happened to be bumped into by the old minister, but unfortunately the old minister was powerless to stop it." ”

"What?" Liu Che frowned and questioned: "It is indeed what the prime minister saw with his own eyes, and the perpetrator is undoubtedly Han Yan?" ”

"It is indeed what the old minister saw with his own eyes." Tian Wei said, "When the old minister entered, I saw Dr. Han covering the woman's mouth and nose, although the old minister shouted loudly, it was too late!" ”

Liu Che looked at Han Yan when he heard this, Han Yan shook his head silently, Liu Che looked at Tian Wei, and said loudly: "Spread the word!" ”

After some inspection, he bent his knees and said: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, this maid was covered from behind, suffocated to death, and died in less than an hour. The subordinate carefully examined the body and found that she had been pregnant for more than a month. ”

"What?" Everyone was taken aback by what she said, and Han Yan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Han Yan never knows about this matter!" ”

"Have you checked carefully?" Seeing this, Liu Che asked sternly.

He said: "Back to Your Majesty, the subordinates will check carefully and confirm it without a doubt!" ”

"Humph! If you don't know, who else does? The Queen Mother looked at Han Yan and sneered, "No wonder you have to rush to the mourning palace, you must have had an affair with this maid, and you killed people in a hurry when the conversation was fruitless, what else do you have to say?" ”

Han Yan said: "Queen Mother, the minister is speechless, but the minister has never done this!" ”

Although Liu Che believed in Han Yan's innocence in his heart, all the evidence at the moment was directed at Han Yan, and he was at a loss for a while, pondering for a moment, Liu Che said: "Queen Mother, this matter will be investigated thoroughly, Han Yan will first take the Tingwei Mansion into custody, and when the matter is revealed, the son-in-law will give an explanation to the queen mother!" ”

"Your Majesty, you still have to investigate the matter thoroughly!" The queen mother covered her with frost and said unhappily: "Okay, the mourning family will give you time, let you investigate thoroughly, if the matter is really Han Yan's doing, you will not be spared!" ”

Liu Che glanced at Han Yan and responded, "No! ”
