"Shuang'er, I already warned you last time, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at us in this palace, and if we are not careful, we will be doomed!" Yin Suwan used a lot of strength in this slap, so while holding her chest, she gasped slightly: "The words you just said, if they are heard, even if there are ten heads, we are not enough to cut off!" ”

"Bang bang bang", Shuang'er hurriedly kowtowed and said: "The slave knows that she is wrong, the master is angry, the master is angry!" ”

"The slave and maid will never dare to talk nonsense in the future, please don't be angry, your body is important."

Yin Suwan didn't really want to pursue Shuang'er, but it was just because what Shuang'er said just now embarrassed Lin Sheng.

Besides, if she really cares, according to her temper back then, where is this slap so merciful?

Picking up the cup and taking a sip of tea, Yin Suwan moistened her throat and sighed, "That's it, you get up." ”

Shuang'er stood up and stood beside him nervously, not daring to breathe.

"Shuang'er, in this palace, only you and I depend on each other, and I beat you in the hope that you can have a long memory, do you know?" first slapped him, and then said two soft words, I have to say that Yin Suwan's "skill of controlling people" has also been improved.

After hearing this, the grievances in Shuang'er were really lightened a lot, and she nodded again and again: "Yes, the slave understands the master's hard work." ”

Yin Suwan looked at Shuang'er with satisfaction, and said gently: "It's good if you know, go and get me medicine." ”

Shuang'er picked up the prescription left by Lin Sheng on the table, rubbed his face and left.

Lin Sheng walked forward, thinking about the situation just now.

If Yin Suwan was disgusted with herself, she should have scolded her when she rubbed her palm with her fingernails.

But Yin Suwan not only did not, but also indulged herself to hold it on the back of her hand to "rub oil".

What does it mean for a woman to do this?

Needless to say, this must be thoughtful about this man!

However, Shuang'er, the little girl's reaction, was quite protective.

It would be interesting if the two of them turned against each other!

Thinking like this, the corners of Lin Sheng's mouth unconsciously hooked.

"Bang Bang!"

"Woooooooooo......oo The concubine is wronged, beg the mother to see it! ”

Hearing a whimper not far away, and a sound that seemed to be a crisp slap, Lin Sheng stopped his steps and couldn't help but stretch his neck to look at the place where the sound came from.

Because there was some distance between them, Lin Sheng could only vaguely see several gorgeously dressed women standing together, and there was a woman kneeling on the ground who didn't know who it was.

The woman was dressed in palace clothes, her hair was messy, and her side face was swollen and high.

It's none of your business, hang high, where there are women, there will be fighting.

Lin Sheng didn't plan to take care of the affairs in this palace, and as a "man", she was not qualified to care.

was just about to lift his feet and leave, but suddenly heard the queen shout: "Someone, drag Li Mei'er down and behead her!" ”

As soon as he heard the words "Li Meier", Lin Sheng's face changed.

Li Mei'er is an internal ghost arranged by the man in black to enter the palace, if something happens to her, how can she be in the palace?

After making a decision in his heart, Lin Sheng turned around and walked in the direction of the queen and Li Mei'er.

Hiding behind a big tree, Lin Sheng glanced at the ground and was shocked.

Concubine Li was lying on the ground, she was wet and pale, and she looked like she had just been fished out of the water.

"Queen Mother, the concubine is really wronged!" Li Mei'er was struggling to flutter, and the pear blossoms cried with rain: "Niangniang, the concubine has a certificate!" ”

There was a little eunuch kneeling on the side, and when he saw Li Mei'er pulling herself out, he hurriedly shrunk his neck, shook his head and said, "Queen Mother, the slave didn't see anything." ”

Zhao Qingqing, the other new concubine standing beside the queen, pursed her lips and snorted coldly: "Li Mei'er, did you hear it, this little eunuch didn't see anything he said!" ”

"Concubine Li must have been killed by you, you had better honestly explain to the queen mother, why did you kill Concubine Li!"

"Zhao Qingqing, don't spew blood!" Li Meier was very angry about Zhao Qingqing's fall.

But except for her own palace maid, she is really difficult to distinguish.

The only little eunuch who passed by pretended to be deaf and dumb.

The current situation is very dangerous for her.

She hasn't been blessed by the old emperor yet, and the task given to her by the man in black hasn't been completed, how can she die?

I have learned the means of seducing men and martial arts, but I have not learned how to fight in the battle of women.

If she could, she really wanted to slap the annoying Zhao Qingqing in front of her to death with one palm.

Lin Sheng glanced at Zhao Qingqing, and saw that she was standing very close to the queen, and immediately understood that this woman must have been secretly hugging the queen's thighs.

If the new concubine wants to gain a foothold in the harem for a long time, she must form a gang and choose an ally who is most beneficial to herself.

In other words, when your own ability is insufficient, you must find a strong backer.

Otherwise, if the strength is weak, it is like a small grass, and anyone can step on a few feet.

If you die, you will die in vain.

Concubine Li's palace maid Huan'er hurriedly ran over, looking panicked: "Master, master!" ”

"Poof" fell to the ground with a bang, Huan'er threw herself on Concubine Li's expression, and cried: "Master, the slave and maid are just going to the kitchen, why did you run out!" ”

"Woo...... Master, what happened to you, who killed you? Woooooo ”

Lin Sheng frowned, and from Li Mei'er and Huan'er's words, he probably knew what was going on.

Concubine Li died, and the queen decided that Li Meier was the murderer.

Regardless of whether Li Meier is the real murderer or not, Lin Sheng has to protect her.

What's more, if you think about it carefully, Li Mei'er has only been in the palace for a few days, and Concubine Li has been staying in Ruyi Palace because she has lost the spirit of the Qing King, and the two should not have too much intersection, so Li Mei'er doesn't seem to have a reason to kill Li Mei'er.

"The grass people have seen the queen mother." Walking out from behind the tree, Lin Sheng pretended to pass by and saluted the queen.

The queen said "um", waved her hand, and said loudly to the guards: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Drag people down! ”

As soon as Li Mei'er saw Lin Sheng, her eyes lit up, "Niangniang, if you don't believe in the concubine, you can find the imperial doctor to conduct an autopsy in person!" ”

"It's up to you to decide who is right and who is wrong!"

I have to say that Li Meier is very smart.

She didn't ask Lin Sheng for help directly, because her identity was a harem concubine, and Lin Sheng was a man outside the palace.

Even if they met at the concubine selection ceremony, the two could never be involved.

Therefore, Li Meier was talking about letting the imperial doctor perform the autopsy, not Lin Sheng.

"Hmph, if you didn't kill the person, why are you sneaky after seeing this palace?!" The queen insisted on Li Mei'er, and she continued to distinguish if she didn't allow it, "It's clear that you killed Concubine Li, and you're scared!" ”

Zhao Qingqing was like a microphone, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, you must be a thief!" ”

"The Queen." Lin Sheng coughed lightly twice, and suddenly said: "In addition to treating diseases and saving people, the grass people will also conduct autopsies, so it's better to let the grass people take a look." ”

"Who is Concubine Li, and who are you? How can you touch the body of a daughter? When the queen heard this, her face sank even more, and she looked at Lin Sheng's eyes like looking at a dirty and despicable bedbug in the gutter, and said in a mocking tone: "Besides, when will it be your turn to talk more about the affairs of the harem in this palace?" ”

"The queen mother, the doctor is benevolent." Lin Sheng didn't mind the queen's sarcasm, and said calmly: "Lin Sheng is a doctor, and he knows the preciousness of human life better than anyone else. ”

"If this lady is really innocent, her hands will be stained with blood."

"Of course, in the eyes of Niangniang, human life is like grass, but all beings are created equal, and anyone's life is life."

After that, she didn't wait for the queen's permission, she strode forward directly, squatted next to Concubine Li's corpse, and began to check it.

"Bold!" Except for the old emperor, no one in this palace seems to dare to contradict the queen in public.

Lin Sheng didn't give the queen face so much, which made the queen angry: "Dare to speak disrespectfully to the palace, point fingers, and drag it down!" Kill them all! ”

"Concubine De Niangniang has arrived!" Suddenly, the voice of a little eunuch sounded.

Concubine De held the hand of the palace maid and walked slowly.

"The concubine greets the queen." Slightly blessed with a blessed body, Concubine De behaved dignified and elegant.

After getting up, she looked at Concubine Li's corpse in surprise, covering her mouth as if frightened: "Queen Mother, Concubine Li, this is ......"

She staggered a few steps, and she felt like she was going to faint immediately.

"Dead, what else can happen?" The queen rolled her eyes angrily, as if she was dissatisfied with Concubine De's pretentiousness.

"Then this Concubine Mei ......" fell on Li Mei'er, and Concubine De was puzzled.

"Concubine De, you have to be the master of the concubine!" When Li Mei'er saw Concubine De asking, she immediately burst into tears and said: "The concubine just went to the lake to enjoy the flowers, but I don't know why Concubine Li's body floated up from the bottom of the lake, and the concubine didn't have time to send someone to tell her, but she saw the queen mother coming!" ”

"The queen said that the concubine killed Concubine Li, but the concubine and Concubine Li didn't know each other at all, where is the motive to kill her?!"

"What's more, if the concubine wants to kill people, it is impossible for people to come and go in broad daylight!"

"Woo, Concubine De, please give the concubine justice!"

Li Mei'er's speech was rapid, like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, crackling, full of grievances in and out of her words, and the accusation that the queen had wronged herself indiscriminately.

"Presumptuous!" After the queen heard the meaning of Li Mei'er's words, she pointed at her angrily, "Are you saying that there is no distinction between right and wrong in this palace?" ”

"Concubine De, the merits, there will be a conclusion after the autopsy." Lin Sheng stood up and even pleaded with Concubine De.

Zhao Qingqing saw that the queen's face turned red with anger, so she took the initiative to say: "The queen mother just said that Concubine Li is a precious body, not something you can touch casually!" ”

There is no shortage of beauties in the harem, and Concubine De has been able to survive in the deep palace until now, in addition to being low-key and humble, she also has brains.

It stands to reason that Concubine Mei kept her duty in the palace, and she did not go to various palaces like Zhao Qingqing to be courteous, she should not provoke the queen.

And now it is obvious that the queen wants Concubine Mei to die.

If it is said that because Concubine Mei won the love of the old emperor, this is understandable.

But the key is that Concubine Mei, like Zhao Qingqing, has not even seen the two of them face each other since she was admitted to the palace since she was admitted to the palace, and the old emperor was busy with physical reasons and court affairs, so the queen had no chance to be jealous.

To be precise, the old emperor accepted the concubine at that time, and he just treated the two of them as decorations.

Then, the reason why Concubine Mei had to die may be that the queen killed Concubine Li, and she happened to be touched by the unlucky Concubine Mei, so Concubine Mei became a scapegoat......

After some dispute, Lin Sheng has almost figured it out by now, otherwise he would not have asked Concubine De for help.

Concubine Li is dead, which is no harm to Concubine De.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Perhaps, Concubine De can also take the opportunity to take back the power of managing the harem from the queen.

Concubine De's eyes flickered, and her face became serious little by little: "Queen Mother, Concubine Li is not an ordinary concubine, and the concubine thinks it is better to let Lin Gongzi carefully examine the corpse." ”

The queen sneered, gritting her teeth: "Concubine De, you can't trust this palace anymore?" ”

"The concubine doesn't dare." Concubine De shook her head and said slowly: "For so many years, the queen mother has been in charge of the six palaces, no matter how big or small, everything is big or small. ”

"The concubine thinks that Concubine Li's death must also be investigated."

"After all, Concubine Li has also been by the emperor's side for many years, and when the emperor wakes up, the queen will have an explanation."

Concubine De's words, on the surface, are praising the queen for managing the harem well, but in fact, she is blaming the queen for negligence in management, so that Concubine Li died in vain.

Therefore, for the death of Concubine Li, the queen has an unshirkable responsibility as the lord of the six palaces.

When the old emperor knows, he will definitely get to the bottom of it and ask for an understanding.

"Confession?" When the queen heard Concubine De's words, she was really furious: "Concubine Li was killed by Li Mei'er, and the palace disposes of her in accordance with the palace rules, which is to give an explanation to the emperor!" ”

"But you people are hindering this palace from punishing the murderer, what does this mean?"

Seeing that the queen was beaten upside down, Concubine De's eyes darkened, and she didn't give an inch: "Queen Mother, the concubine doesn't want to stop you, she just wants to let things come to light." ”

"If the murderer is really Li Mei'er, then you will cut her with a thousand knives, and the concubine will not stop her."

"But if the murderer is not Li Mei'er, not only Li Mei'er died innocently, but even Concubine Li will die without seeing it."

As soon as Concubine De opened her mouth just now, she had already offended the queen.

And now that she is standing in Lin Sheng's position again, she is even more clearly going to tear her face with the queen.

With reinforcements, Lin Sheng's confidence is also more sufficient: "What Concubine De said is that if the real murderer is found, Concubine Li has a spirit in the sky, and she will be grateful to the queen." ”

"Concubine De, do you even want to go against this palace?" The queen squinted, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in her phoenix eyes.

Concubine De hurriedly lowered her head, her voice still respectful: "The concubine doesn't dare." ”

"If you don't dare, don't do much!" The queen is already angry, and the anger in her heart is burning fiercely.

This fire was not only lit by Lin Sheng, but also added by Concubine De.

However, Concubine De ignored the queen's anger and continued to say unhurriedly: "Queen Mother, if you insist on going your own way and reach the ears of the queen mother, things will not be so simple. ”

Although the queen is the niece of the queen mother, and the two are aunts and nephews, their goals are not the same.

The Queen Mother is old, and now she just wants to spend her old age in peace.

Her preferred candidate for the throne is the same as the old emperor, Qi Hao.

Qi Hao grew up under the knees of the Queen Mother, so the Queen Mother just wanted to wait for Qi Hao to ascend the throne as the emperor and continue to be her own queen mother.

The queen is bent on cultivating the Eight Princes, and she wants to rely on the Eight Princes to be the Queen Mother.

Therefore, two people have different interests, and it is impossible for their hearts to go together.

Moreover, in this harem, in terms of status and identity, the queen mother is the biggest.

It is true that the queen is the lord of the six palaces, but the queen mother pressed on her head.

If the queen mother is unhappy, she can also directly cross the old emperor and take back the queen's phoenix seal.

Of course, if it weren't for the fatal fault of the queen, the old emperor would have abolished the queen a long time ago, where would she still be allowed to show off her power to this day?

If the Queen Mother really took the phoenix seal away, the old emperor would definitely be happier than anyone else when she found out.

The most important thing is that although the queen is respectful and filial to the queen mother on the surface, and she also goes to say hello on time and at a fixed point, the queen mother knows in her heart that the queen is just a show at most, and she is afraid of falling into the hands of others.

In terms of filial piety, the queen's filial piety is not as true as Yin Suwan's.

"Good, good, what a usually taciturn concubine! Hongu is considered to have seen it! The queen was choked by Concubine De's words, her chest rose and fell, she said a few "yes" in a row, and finally gritted her teeth and flicked her sleeves, turned her head and glared at Lin Sheng angrily: "Check!" Check it out for Hongu! ”

"I can't find out why, this palace wants your heads!"

Anyway, Concubine Li was suffocated to death by Qiu Chan and threw her body into the lake.

At that time, Li Meier was the only one who appeared by the lake, and the murderer was not her or who?

King Qing is dead, Concubine Li has no trump card in her hand, and she has lost a pair of children and has no threat to the queen at all.

The reason why the queen suddenly killed her was because of an old grudge from many years ago.

Not long after Concubine De entered the palace, Concubine Li was accepted as a concubine by the old emperor.

Concubine Li is good-looking, charming, and knows how to capture the heart of the old emperor.

Although he is a little arrogant and willful, he is like a cat, and he is coquettish and arrogant at the right time, as long as it is not too excessive, the old emperor can always tolerate it.

After the death of the crown prince, the queen was pregnant with several children, but there were miscarriages without warning.

Last night, the queen knew the reason.

It turned out that at that time, the Fang family was dominant in the court, and Concubine Li was afraid that the queen would give birth to the old emperor and her son would be completely hopeless, so she had the audacity to let the queen be drugged.

When the queen learned the truth, she almost gritted her silver teeth with hatred.

If Qiu Chan hadn't stopped her in time, she would have really rushed into Concubine Li's palace desperately and dismantled Concubine Li with a dagger.

Under the persuasion of the autumn cicada, the queen gave up the idea of doing it herself.

Last time, Concubine Li made a fuss in front of the old emperor, and she fell out of favor in the palace.

Now it's no different from going crazy, so if Huan'er, the little palace maid who serves Concubine Li, continues to follow Concubine Li, there is no future at all.

Qiu Cicada bought Huan'er, and Huan'er suffocated Concubine Li with a pillow.

In the dead of night, in the second half of the night, when she couldn't see her fingers, Concubine Li's body sank into the lake.

Originally, the queen wanted to create a false impression of falling into the water for Concubine Li.

However, I didn't expect Li Mei'er to see Concubine Li's body, if the queen didn't use her, she was really sorry that she appeared in such a timely manner.

After Lin Sheng heard this, he stopped grinding, and immediately squatted down and checked Concubine Li with a serious face.

first touched Concubine Li's belly, and then Lin Sheng brushed aside the wet hair on Concubine Li's face and looked at her eyeballs.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Sheng continued to check Concubine Li's hands and feet, and said slowly: "Concubine Li was killed by someone. ”

"Hmph, the palace said that Li Mei'er is a murderer, you just want to ......" The queen snorted coldly, but unfortunately she was interrupted by Lin Sheng immediately.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother, please listen to what you have to say." Lin Sheng glanced at the queen and said quietly: "Concubine Li was killed first, and then her body sank into the water. ”

Li Mei'er's hanging heart finally let go, she clenched her fists and looked at Lin Sheng with blank eyes.

Knowing that the queen would not shed tears when she saw the coffin, Lin Sheng pointed to Concubine Li's hand and said in a deep voice: "If a living person falls into the water, he will definitely struggle." ”

"When the qi and veins come and go, the water is pumped in, the hands will naturally bend, and the hands and feet will also be stained with mud and sand."

"There is water foam coming out of the mouth and nose, and there is a feeling of water swelling when you press on the abdomen."

While speaking, Lin Sheng gently pressed Concubine Li's stomach and looked up at the queen's changed face: "However, Concubine Li's stomach is empty, so it can be seen that there is no water in it." ”

"The hand is also stiff forward, these deaths are enough to show that the murderer is not Li Meier."

Lin Sheng's head is the Tao, and the basis is full, which makes the queen unable to refute it for a while.

Even Concubine De, looking at Lin Sheng, her eyes were full of appreciation.

The queen's hand holding Qiu Cicada trembled a little, she looked at Lin Sheng with cold eyes, and said word by word: "Then you tell the palace that it was not Concubine Li who Li Meier killed, so who is it?" ”

These words were different from the question just now, but they were testing Lin Sheng.

Since Lin Sheng could see that Concubine Li was thrown into the lake after her death, he could also find any clues from Concubine Li's body to determine the murderer.

Shuang'er trembled, not knowing whether she was crying out of breath or frightened by hearing the queen's words.

Lin Sheng lowered his eyes, pretended to look at Concubine Li's body from beginning to end, shook his head and said regretfully: "There is a specialization in the art industry, and the grass people are ashamed, and they can't find out who is the person who threw Concubine Li's body in the lake." ”

She didn't directly say that she couldn't find the "real murderer", but said that she couldn't find the person who threw the body.

Because once she relented, it was difficult to guarantee that the queen would not be allowed to meet the stitches and put the charge back on Li Meier's head.

Li Mei'er just accidentally bumped into the corpse, as for when the corpse was sunk and who killed Concubine Li, it has nothing to do with Li Mei'er.

It's not that Lin Sheng's level is really limited, but she is afraid that she will really pull out the few silk threads blocked in Concubine Li's nose, and if she continues to investigate aggressively, she will force the queen to be anxious, and she will not be able to eat and walk away.

"Master, everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Li has been delirious for many days, maybe she really ran around at night and accidentally fell into the water." Qiu Cicada sighed, as if to comfort the queen, and seemed to suggest that the queen should calm down and not mess up.

Lin Sheng made concessions, and even if the queen was angry, she couldn't show it.

She held Qiu Chan's hand hard, and her slender nails dug through the back of Qiu Chan's hand, "Since this is the case, then this matter has nothing to do with Li Mei'er!" ”

"Come on, carry Concubine Li down and bury her well!"

waved his hand and motioned for the guards to let Li Mei'er go.

After Concubine Li's body was carried down, the queen raised her chin and pointed the finger at Concubine De, "Concubine De and Concubine Li entered the palace with their front and back feet, and this palace has not found that Concubine De has such a deep affection for Concubine Li over the years. ”

Concubine De knew that the queen was unwilling to swallow this breath, no matter what she said, she would definitely be grabbed by the queen.

Therefore, she might as well remain silent.

Seeing that Concubine De bowed her head and didn't speak, the queen was even more panicked, and flicked her sleeves and left angrily.

Seeing this, Zhao Qingqing followed behind him.

After the queen left, Concubine De looked at Li Mei'er, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said gently, "Get up." ”

Li Mei'er snorted, hurriedly saluted Concubine De, and said gratefully: "Concubine De, thank you, Concubine De, thank you Gongzi Lin." ”

Lin Sheng smiled, waved his hand and said: "No, no, it's Concubine De's kindness, justice and fairness, you just want to thank Concubine De alone." ”

gave Li Mei'er a look without a trace, and Li Mei'er understood now.

"Concubine De Niangniang, today you saved the concubine, if there is a need for concubines in the future, the concubines will definitely die!" After that, Li Meier "poofed" again and knelt in front of Concubine De, looking extremely sincere.

Concubine De didn't know what Li Mei'er meant to take refuge in, she smiled and helped Li Mei'er up, "We are all emperors, and sisters should be closer to each other." Usually there is nothing to do, you go to the main palace to sit and sit. ”

"Yes." Li Meier wiped her tears and hurriedly responded.

The corners of Lin Sheng's lips curved slightly, and then he left with his hand. ()
