The Queen Mother moved the agate Buddha skewers, her face was solemn, she looked at Yingyun, and said, "What do you think about this?" ”

Ying Yun thought about it and said: "Yi Concubine came out of the Buddha Hall, if she wants to go back to Yonghe Palace, it is said that she will not pass through the Imperial Pond, why would she give up the near and far?" She has been in the palace for nearly 20 years, and she knows how to walk with her eyes closed, and it is unreasonable to say that she fell into the water. But if someone murdered someone, why? ”

The Queen Mother sighed secretly and said: "This time there was a lot of trouble, and it can't be easily revealed, and there are people in the palace who harbor evil intentions, and they must not be kept." In my opinion, I passed on the work of the criminal department, and entered the palace for an autopsy to find out. ”

Yingyun nodded and said, "That's exactly what I thought." ”

In the Yonghe Palace, Yi Concubine was placed in the main hall, because of the Queen Mother's decree, no one could enter without permission to mourn, only waiting for the criminal department to arrive, and investigated the cause of Yi Concubine's death in detail.

Bai Chang was crying miserably, and when he saw that he was going to use a knife on Yi Concubine, he cried and grabbed the ground, and said, "My sister is gone, how can I tolerate desecration of my body?" ”

Wushun Dai Yingyun looked at it and persuaded: "Little master, this is what Lafayette meant, don't delay the time, only by finding out the truth, can you give Concubine Yi a justice, and the little lord doesn't want Concubine Yi to die." ”

Bai Chang was crying bitterly, and fell on Feiyan's body, as if she had a serious illness, and when Concubine Yi died, it was like taking half of her life.

Carrying the suitcase, he hurriedly entered the autopsy and carefully investigated from head to toe for most of the day.

After noon, he entered Cining Palace and resumed his life. There is no mistake

The criminal department has examined countless murder cases and has a lot of experience, but it has found many unusual things.

The Queen Mother withdrew everyone, leaving only Yingyun in the main hall, and asked, "What results did you find?" ”

He replied: "Yi Concubine Niangniang should have happened three days ago, Niangniang had bruises on her wrists, slight bleeding, and yellow scabs, which was an injury before her death, and she should have had a dispute with someone before she died." Niangniang has a lung effusion in her abdomen, which was infused when she drowned before her death and struggled. Moreover, the villain found paper ashes in the throat of the mother, presumably inhaled before dying. ”

"Paper ash?" Ying Yun interrupted: "Yi Concubine was copying scriptures in the Buddhist hall before, could it be that she sucked it in at that time?" ”

He replied: "The villain extracted a little paper ash and found that there was silver-white tin foil, which should be silver ingots and tin foil for sacrifices. ”

The Queen Mother said: "It is forbidden to burn paper privately in the palace, and there are only red candles and incense in the Buddhist hall." Now it can be seen that Yi Concubine did not fall into the water, but was murdered. Now that the silver ingots and tin foil have been found, they can be traced further, where did these things come from, and what palace used them? ”

Ying Yun said: "If the silver ingot tin foil enters the palace through the Internal Affairs Office, there must be a file to check. But if it is carried into the palace by the eunuch and the palace maid, there are so many people in the harem, I am afraid it will be difficult to investigate. ”

The Queen Mother's eyes were firm and said, "No matter how difficult this matter is, it must be investigated to the end." The emperor has been busy with state affairs recently, and I am afraid that he can't take care of the affairs of the harem, so we can only take care of it. Wait for us to release the news, if anyone reports that they have come into contact with silver ingots and tin foil, they will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, and those who conceal the report, if it is verified, have been murdered. In this way, it is expected that the results will be soon. ”

The Queen Mother thought about it, and said: "Concubine Yi died in vain, she is angry, and she has to do a few rituals in the palace to ask for peace of mind." ”

Yingyun nodded and responded.
