The noisy noise outside the palace woke up the sleeping Jiang Wan, "What's the matter?" Jiang Wan looked out the window, the night was still very thick, but the dazzling firelight illuminated the sky, and he looked slightly flustered.

A panicked voice came from outside the door, "Niangniang, are you okay?" Ping'er rushed in and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Wan was fine, "I heard that there are assassins outside, and I'm still worried about your safety." ”

"Assassins?" Jiang Wan frowned, and an ominous premonition came to his heart, "The emperor is fine." Jiang Wan turned over and got out of bed, simply put on a cloak, and walked out the door.

"The emperor should be fine, but ......" Ping'er gritted her teeth and finally said it, "Concubine Qi is afraid that she will be gone." ”

"Hire! Be careful! Jiang Wan was shocked, "What the hell is going on, you can make it clear." "How could Concubine Qi suddenly have an accident?

Ping'er was about to cry, "Xiaomei, who just passed by, told me that Concubine Qi's face was blurred with flesh and blood, and the blood flowed all over the ground, and she couldn't see the appearance of a person clearly, or her palace maid Danqing pointed out that it was Concubine Qi's mother, and the emperor was furious and said that he would investigate the matter thoroughly!" ”

Jiang Wan looked at the sky-high fire outside the window in a daze, this harem is really a man-eating monster, and in just a few days, a quiet and elegant woman like Concubine Qi has become a victim of the harem.

Ping'er looked at Jiang Wan's expression, a little strange, "What's the matter, Niangniang, isn't this an assassin?" ”

"If it's an assassin, how can you hurt Concubine Qi's face? Rest assured! Concubine Qi must be fine," Jiang Wan said with a sneer, "I don't know what kind of benefits the person behind Concubine Qi can have if she is disfigured!" ”

Concubine Qi's bedroom is far away from Jiang Wan's cool palace, Jiang Wan can't sleep all night, so she simply walked towards Concubine Qi's bedroom.

As soon as Jiang Wan arrived at Concubine Qi's palace, she saw a basin of blood and water coming out, and the palace maid saw her and avoided it, "Concubine Hui Niang'an, please also ask Concubine Hui Niangniang to avoid it, don't be hit by blood." ”

Ping'er retreated a little frightened, but Jiang Wan's face remained unchanged and continued to walk forward. Lu Zhixing sat in the hall, his brows tightened, and he stretched his brows slightly after seeing Jiang Wan, "Why are you here?" Lu Zhixing was a little worried that this scene would scare Jiang Wan, obviously underestimating Jiang Wan's ability to accept it.

"How's Concubine Qi?" Jiang Wan did not answer Lu Zhixing's question, but looked straight at the location of Concubine Qi inside.

"The imperial doctor said that Concubine Qi's life was fine, but the wound on her face was too deep...... It's absolutely impossible to get back to the way it was. Lu Zhixing felt that the wound on Concubine Qi's face was really shocking, and he didn't know who had such a deep hatred for Concubine Qi.

Concubine Qi's palace maid Danqing rushed out from inside, her hair was messy, she cried and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed violently to Lu Xing and Jiang Wan, "The emperor and Niangniang want to be the master of my family!" What kind of person is so ruthless to make my mother look like this! ”

Jiang Wan was a little soft-hearted, and helped Danqing up, "Danqing girl, don't worry, Concubine Qi is a royal person, if someone has malicious intentions, we will never let go of the murderer." After speaking, she motioned to Lu Zhixing with her eyes to say something.

Lu Zhixing's face was as cold and hard as ever, and finally said, "I naturally won't let go of the murderer, and you will take good care of your mother." ”

"Yes." Danqing wiped her tears and sobbed in a low voice.

"Concubine Hui, come with me." Lu Zhixing turned his head and said to Jiang Wan. Lu Zhixing walked all the way to where he lived, and Jiang Wan silently followed behind him.

Lu Zhixing entered the study and nodded to Changge, who found a chair for Jiang Wan and placed an item in front of the two of them.

"This is something I found at the scene of the incident last night," Lu Zhixing took a sip of tea, "It should be a token of the killer, but some ...... difficult to explain"

Jiang Wan took a closer look, and it turned out to be a black token, and there was a note pressed underneath, "Come and go freely, the royal guards are really waste." The corners of Jiang Wan's eyes twitched again, she felt that in this world, she would sooner or later have crow's feet because of the twitching of the corners of her eyes.

"Wanwan, what do you think?" Lu Zhixing's words inexplicably reminded Jiang Wan of Di Renjie and Yuan Fang, when did she become an expert in solving cases.

"I think there must be something ......strange about this matter," Jiang Wan replied unconsciously in the Yuan Fang style, "This assassin is so proud, I think he has some strength, the trip to the palace was decided by the emperor on a whim, and you can check the people who have contact with external professional killer organizations these days." ”

"And...... Concubine Qi only had her face hurt, which made me a little concerned. Jiang Wan didn't finish her words, but Lu Zhixing already understood what she meant, this matter must have been done by the people of the harem.

"Your harem is really full of talents!" Jiang Wan couldn't help but say sarcastically, and felt a little sad in his heart, in this harem, what else can be trusted? The food may be poisonous, the clothes may be poisonous, you may be assassinated if you go out for a walk, and even if you stay in the palace and do nothing, you will be framed.

Jiang Wan hooked the corners of her mouth, "Why did Concubine Qi appear there last night?" "Concubine Qi doesn't take the palace maid out, what is she going to do? Did the Assassins come for Concubine Qi, or did they have another purpose?

"I haven't asked this yet," Lu Zhixing probably thought of this a long time ago, "Her palace maid is in an unstable mental state, she only knows how to cry, and it is estimated that she will not know until Concubine Qi wakes up." ”

"Wanwan, you go back first, be careful these days, the assassin may still be lurking in the palace."

Lu Zhixing said softly to Jiang Wan, Jiang Wan also felt a little tired, so he retreated to the dormitory and took a nap.

And during the time when Jiang Wan was asleep, Concubine Qi woke up. After she woke up, she kept hugging the quilt and shrunk in the corner, and even Danqing shouted that it might take her a long time to react, "Niangniang, Niangniang, are you okay?" Danqing's tears that he could not hold back flowed again.

"Concubine Qi's body is fine, but her spirit may have been stimulated." The white-bearded imperial physician said to Lu Zhixing, who rushed to hear the news, he looked at Lu Zhixing's face cautiously, although Concubine Qi was not favored, she was also an old man in the palace, and she had been by His Majesty's side since she was still a prince, and Concubine Qi's background was ...... The imperial doctor shook his head, feeling a little pity for Concubine Qi's child.

"Danqing, my face...... How's it going? Concubine Qi asked Danqing in a panic

Danqing looked at Concubine Qi with tears in her eyes, "Niangniang, I'm afraid your face can't be restored." Surprisingly, Concubine Qi did not cry out to the bottom, but nodded calmly.

Concubine Qi was naturally very bitter in her heart, but what had happened, she couldn't change it no matter what. She didn't want to look at the emperor, she didn't know what the emperor would think of her disfigured.

Lu Zhixing greeted Concubine Qi more gently than usual, "Niannian, you can recuperate with peace of mind first, and Concubine Hui and I will handle the matter." ”

Nian Nian, naturally it is Concubine Qi's name, Liu Niannian, she doesn't remember how long she hasn't been called like this by the emperor, the scene in her memory where the emperor called her Nian Nian has been blurred, she suddenly felt that maybe being disfigured is not a bad thing, a face, in exchange for the emperor's tenderness to her for a while, is actually quite cost-effective.

Compared with Liu Niannian's calmness, the court exploded, after all, although the Liu family has declined, its influence is still there.

Liu Niannian's grandfather, Liu Yi, is the most virtuous and respected bachelor since the opening of the Great Wei Dynasty, Liu Yi is gentle and elegant, knowledgeable, deeply loved by the first emperor and the people, everyone is proud to study under him, but unfortunately the first emperor died of illness, and the Liu family also declined.

Now in the imperial court, there are not a few of their disciples who are high-ranking officials, thinking of the teacher's care for them, naturally they can't see the teacher's only granddaughter being wronged, so they all ask the emperor for a thorough investigation of the matter.

Lu Zhixing was also taught by Liu Yi for a period of time when he was young, so although he didn't have any special love for Liu Niannian, Liu Niannian also sat on the concubine all the way, and he has been steady until today.

Lu Zhixing obviously blocked the news, but the rumors still spread in the palace, "I heard that it was because Concubine Hui was jealous that the emperor came to the palace this time to bring Concubine Qi, so people ruined Concubine Qi's face." Mrs. Wang gave full play to her gossip ability, and her eyebrows fluttered to tell Mrs. Chen about the news she had heard from nowhere.

"Huh? Unexpectedly, I don't know my heart. Mrs. Wang said that Mrs. Chen almost believed this statement, and was secretly worried about Chen Chuge, who was still there with Jiang Wan, "No, I will go and take Chen San back today!" Mrs. Chen made a quick decision and immediately took action.

"Niangniang, I think my Chu Ge has been nagging you for a long time, I'll take her back today." Mrs. Chen said to Jiang Wan with a sneer, Jiang Wan looked at her nose and nose, and felt that Mrs. Chen was a little strange.

"Madam, Chen San has only been here for two days, why do you want to talk about it, I like her very much." Jiang Wan did not agree to Mrs. Chen's request, it was okay to bring Chen Chuge back, she wanted to know why.

Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth and strengthened her determination to bring Chen Chuge back, "Niangniang, what do you mean by this, refusing to hand over Chu Ge, could it be that something happened to Chu Ge?" Mrs. Chen's voice was also tinged with tears.

Jiang Wan frowned, "What does Mrs. Chen mean, what did I do to Chen San?" ”

Mrs. Chen's frightened tears retreated, and she said curtly, "How dare I say that, I'm just worried about the safety of my family's Chu Ge." ”

Jiang Wan looked at Mrs. Chen's attitude, and her heart was clear, it is estimated that someone rumored that she made a move on Concubine Qi, Jiang Wan laughed self-deprecatingly, she really couldn't be at peace for a day.

"Alright, bring Chen San over." She closed her eyes tiredly, and had no intention of entanglement with Mrs. Chen.

"Mother, why are you here?" Chen Chuge was a little surprised, but before he could say anything, he was dragged out of the Liang Palace by Mrs. Chen.

Jiang Wan looked at the dim sky outside the window, the mountain rain was about to come, and the wind was full of buildings.
