Chapter 45: Clues
On the night of the second day of Fang Yushan's death, Frost Fall secretly ran to the most remote lake in the palace - Youyue Lake, where few people usually come, and now that most of the people in the palace have gone to the summer resort, Youyue Lake is even more deserted. Taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, the frost destroyed the talisman, she took out the fire fold and carefully lit the fire, but unfortunately it was difficult to ignite for a while and a half tonight. The bright and extinguished sparks emitted by the fire fold attracted the attention of Zixiao, who couldn't sleep and slipped out for a walk, Zixiao was born with a sensitive intuition, and she judged that the third watch ran to this dark and remote place in the middle of the night to fiddle with the fire fold either to set fire or to burn something unsightly. Zixiao was interested, and quietly touched the past to find out, only to see that Frostfall took out a talisman from his arms, and was about to put it directly on the fire fold to burn it, but was snatched away by the quick-eyed Zixiao and quickly turned around and lit a few acupoints on Frostfall's body, and when Frostfall landed, he couldn't move and couldn't speak. Zixiao hooked the talisman on his finger and turned around, and the frosty eyes turned and turned with it, Zixiao was happy at first, and then immediately changed his face and threatened: "What bad things must be done to sneak here without sleeping at night!" Now I'll ask you a few questions, and you answer me obediently, just blink your eyes, not just blink twice. Don't lie to me, or you'll take your life right away, understand? "Frost Fall was already weak in doing bad things, and when the quilt laughed so scared, he was even more scared and trembled, and quickly blinked his eyes.
"Well, good. You just wanted to burn this? This is ......" Zixiao opened the amulet bag and sniffed the smell of the remaining powder inside, frowning: "Musk? "How does Frostfall know what is in it, Shen Xiaoxiang only explained how she used it, and destroyed it when she used it, she didn't say what was in it at all, she could only blink again in order to save her life. Zixiao looked at the clothes on Shuang Xia's body like the unified uniform system of the palace maid of Ming Cuixuan, and combined with the musk talisman in his hand, he immediately thought of Concubine Lan who died in childbirth, I see! It seems that Fang Yushan's death was deliberately done. Zixiao's expression became even more cold: "Now I'm going to untie your dumb hole, but you are not allowed to shout, otherwise you will immediately crush your throat, do you hear?" Frost blinked vigorously, and then Zixiao untied her dumb hole, grabbed her neck with his hand and approached her and asked, "Who sent you to harm Concubine Lan?" Don't hide it for your master, she may kill you if you recruit now; But if you don't say it, I'll kill you right away! ”
"Don't kill me! It was the Hunan noble concubine who instructed the slaves! I'm also forced to ......" and then Zixiao pressed Xia Frost Fall step by step to summon the facts she knew. Zixiao knew the ins and outs of the matter, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart The darkness of the harem dispute, so that the harem like a pool of muddy water let her mix it up more turbidly! Zixiao smiled with a satisfied smile and whispered to Frostfall, "Look into my eyes, you have destroyed the amulet; You don't remember seeing me; When someone wants to harm you, go to Si Zhen's room to find Zhangzhen. Zixiao kept repeating this sentence, and finally hypnotized the frost. The hypnotized frost stared at Zi Xiao with distracted eyes, Zi Xiao snapped his fingers and immediately fainted to the ground, Zi Xiao put away the talisman and left, deciding to take advantage of the opportunity of Lan Guifei's funeral to go out of the palace.
On the twenty-seventh day of July after Fang Yushan's death for three days, Zixiao mixed in the funeral procession and followed out of the palace, and on the way to the concubine's tomb, Zixiao took the opportunity to escape, and then secretly returned to Qin Yan's secret courtyard. When he entered the other courtyard, he smiled and went straight to the study, and was stopped by Ah Mo as soon as he was halfway through: "No need to go, the master is not in the other courtyard." ”
"Where has the master gone?" Hearing that Qin Yan was not there, Zixiao, who had been excited, was suddenly a little lost.
"I went horseback riding with the second son. By the way, the second son also asked about your current situation, he cares about how you are doing in the palace! Ah Mo deliberately teased Zixiao, Qin Fu, the second son of the Qin family, has liked Zixiao since he was a child, which is a tacit thing for everyone in the Horse Mansion.
"Phew, don't have fun with this girl! I have made a new discovery this time to report to my master, and since my master is not here, I will tell you about it, and you can convey it to me. So Zixiao told Ah Mo everything she found out about Shen Xiaoxiang and Fang Yushan's death. After hearing this, Ah Mo did not have a surprised expression at all, as if he had already known it, but in fact, Ah Mo had already known the reason.
"Huh? You already know it! How would you know? That's the evidence I just got here! Zixiao was amazed at Amo's well-informed and quick action.
"Remember that goddess Mist? I escorted her back to Yong'an, and I saw that she was suspicious on the way, so I paid special attention to her every move. On the day I arrived at the inn, I found that someone had secretly sent her a bag of things, and at night I used the smoke to stun her and peeked into the contents of the baggage. Guess what I saw? Ah Mo also deliberately bought a pass, and he was so anxious that he couldn't laugh, urging him to hurry up. Ah Mo didn't go around the bend anymore, and told her directly: "There is a portrait inside, and there is also a series of relevant information such as the name and birth date of the person on the portrait." I guess you know better than I know who the person in this painting is. "That's right, that's the portrait of Huanyue that Shen Xiaoxiang sent to Wuyin. Since then, Mo has known that the so-called Demon Star Descent is just a play rehearsed by someone, in order to get rid of a little concubine! Amo was deeply ridiculous and worried about the future of the country with such a vexatious harem. However, Amo naturally thought that things would not be as simple as they seemed on the surface, and there must be a bigger conspiracy behind it. Considering the recent unannounced accidental death of Lan Guifei, it is not difficult to guess the connection, but there is no evidence to determine that Shen Xiaoxiang is the one behind it. And the news brought by Zixiao today and the talisman in her hand undoubtedly confirmed Ah Mo's conjecture.
"In this way, Wu Yin's certification and the physical evidence in my hand can convict Shen Xiaoxiang?" Zixiao pointed his index finger to his chin and thought, and suddenly shouted: "Oops! Amo, you stupid, Wu Yin is afraid that she has fled to the ends of the earth a long time ago, how can we find her! Amo was so shocked by her lion's roar that he plucked out his ears, and said angrily: "You are stupid, the stinky girl is noisy!" Do you really think I'm going to be that stupid? I found her suspicious and controlled her long ago after she left the palace. She was chased and killed the day after she left the palace, it is estimated that it was a group of people from the Shen family, or I saved her. She is now under house arrest by her master in a very safe place, and when she needs to, she will naturally release this person's certificate, don't worry, continue to pay attention to all the developments after returning to the palace. ”
"Then I'm relieved. By the way, I have to ask you for one more thing, Frostfall's mother and younger brother were controlled by the Shen family, and they found a way to rescue them...... Not really...... Kill them and blame the Shen family! In short, they can't be allowed to continue to fall into the hands of Shen Xiaoxiang. Okay, then I'm leaving, I'll have to wait for the funeral procession to come back and sneak back. When he said that he was going to kill the frostfall family, Zixiao didn't even blink his eyes, and even Amo, who was a killer, couldn't help but sigh that this little woman's heart was ruthless.
"Wait a minute! This is for you, and I will give Zimo a share when I go back. Mo threw Zixiao a packet of salted green plums, which were pickled with the fruit of the green plum trees in the backyard of the Fuma Mansion, and were their favorite childhood taste.
"Thanks! Do you have anything you want me to bring to Zimo? Although the three of them grew up together, Zixiao knew that compared to her, the relationship between Amo and Zimo was more intimate. And Zimo accidentally sprained his ankle before leaving the palace for summer vacation this time, and Mo didn't know where he learned the news, and he was very worried about Zimo's body.
"Stay safe. Both of you are. With that, he turned around and walked away coolly, Zixiao grimaced at his back, and then left the courtyard as well.
Zixiao hid in the place where she escaped and waited for the funeral procession to return the same way, and after waiting for more than an hour, the team appeared, Zixiao silently followed the end of the team and successfully mixed back into the team unknowingly, and returned to the palace safe and sound. After returning to the palace, she found an opportunity to ask Zimo, who was unable to drive because of a foot injury, to come out, and conveyed the salted green plums and the sentence "pay attention to safety" that Mo brought to her smoothly, and by the way, she also teased Mo for a while, exaggerating how much Mo missed her and worried about her! Zixiao was making up her own happiness, but found that Zimo was looking at her with idiotic eyes, Zixiao became angry all of a sudden, and she was about to pull Zimo's ears with a mouth shouting "Nizi who doesn't know what to do", Zimo dodged and dodged, and then fled in a puff of smoke, leaving Zixiao alone in the same place sulking.
Of course, Zixiao and Zimo met not only to quarrel and send green plums, but naturally to exchange their news with each other. Zixiao told Zimo about the persecution of Fang Yushan by Shen Xiaoxiang, and wanted to discuss with Zimo a perfect strategy to save Frostfall's life after Shen Xiaoxiang returned to the palace.
"Why are you hypnotizing that frost to make her lose her memory of that night? Tell her directly that after Shen Xiaoxiang returns to the palace, she will die, wouldn't it be better to control her before the holy car returns to Luan? Zimo didn't understand why Zixiao was simple.
"Frost's family is in the hands of Shen Xiaoxiang. She would not betray Shen Xiaoxiang without regard for the safety of her family, unless her family was not controlled by the Shen family. If it weren't for the fact that the conditions were not yet ripe, she would also want to use the simplest and most effective way to deal with the frost fall.
"So you went to Amo to help you rescue the frost family, and in exchange for you to coerce her to betray Shen Xiaoxiang?" Zimo immediately saw through Zixiao's trick.
"Clever, so as soon as there is news from Amo's side, I will immediately arrange for Frostfall to leave. However, it will not be easy to leave, so I need to ask for your help. Zixiao instantly revealed her characteristic flattering and scoundrel smile.
"How can I help?" Zimo knew that Zixiao must have some plan, and he would definitely make waves in the harem again.
"Concubine Zhuang hasn't been home for half a year, she must miss her family very much, why don't you propose Concubine Zhuang to leave the palace after returning to Luan this time?" Zixiao squeezed his eyes at Zimo and threw the problem to her. Then without waiting for Zimo to refuse, Zixiao began to exaggerate Amo's worry about her, and then there was a scene where Zixiao was despised and jumped to her feet in anger.
Zimo returned to Guanju Palace, counting the days when the holy driver returned to Luan for at least two months, and with Amo's efficiency, it should not be difficult to find the whereabouts of the frost family's family within two months, and she also had to think of a reasonable reason to persuade Li Jingxiao to go home. The last time she left the palace was on the Shangyuan Festival, so she hadn't seen the "Demon King of the Mixed World" for half a year...... Huh? How could she think of that madman for no reason! The distraught Zimo took a set of punches in the courtyard by moonlight, and silently recited the phrase "the demon retreats" in his mouth during the last move, and then went back to the house to sleep contentedly.
