Chapter 507: Black Cauldron
Cui'er fell so fast that she probably landed before she could react.
There was not a single shout, only the muffled sound of flesh falling to the ground.
Mei Yi stood quietly by the well, and after listening to a muffled sound, she looked at the bottom of the well and confirmed that the person was dead before standing up straight.
After a long time, she said lightly, "Don't blame me, it's your own bad life, now that your mother uses you, it is also your blessing, and your family will help you take care of it." ”
After Mei Yi finished saying this, she turned around and left indifferently.
—
Kunluan Palace.
Lu Chun hurriedly ran into the house, "Niang Niang......"
Xiao Yueyao was eating secretly at this moment, and she was so frightened that she almost choked when she heard Lu Chun's voice.
"What, what's wrong?"
"Mother." Lu Chun breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a pale face, "Niangniang, you let people stare at the Jiaofang Palace, the little eunuch we sent over today saw that it was not Mei Yi who went to the Internal Affairs Mansion to receive things, but a palace maid with a face, so he secretly followed." ”
Green Spring's words stopped.
Xiao Yueyao couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" What the hell is going on? ”
Lu Chun took a deep breath before he said slowly, "The little eunuch watched with his own eyes that Yayi pushed the palace maid into the well, and the things that the palace maid brought out from the Internal Affairs Office also touched the well. ”
"Something's going to happen."
Xiao Yueyao's face was solemn.
Lu Chun's face was pale, because the masters he was serving were different, Lu Chun and Mei Yi also dealt with each other a few times, although each time it was not very pleasant. she
But she really didn't expect that Mei Yi could push people into the dry well without blinking her eyes.
Sure enough.
At night, something happened.
Just after dinner, Mei Yi brought someone to Changxi Palace to invite Concubine Zhen Niangniang.
"Concubine Zhen, the queen invites you to go to the Jiaofang Palace."
Concubine Zhen was reluctant at first.
Now that the queen is not favored and has no real power in her hands, if she has something to look for her, she should come here in person.
Instead, let her pass.
But the queen is still the queen, and she is now just a small concubine, so she can only go once.
Although Concubine Zhen went, she was still resentful in her heart.
I thought that she was a concubine with great power in her hands, why did she look at the face of a disgusted person.
At this time, Concubine Zhen had just stepped into the Jiaofang Palace.
I couldn't help but complain.
"What the hell is going on? There are still a bunch of ledgers in this palace that I haven't read yet. ”
When she said this, her voice was very loud, so that the queen could hear it clearly.
The queen sat on the floor, took a leisurely sip of tea, and her eyes fell lazily on Concubine Zhen, "Sister Concubine Zhen is here?" ”
"Sister Concubine Zhen is also a busy person now, and I can't see you even if I want to see you in this palace."
Before the queen could say sit down, Concubine Zhen had already sat down straight, she stroked her sideburns proudly, "It's not that I'm not busy, it's just that Your Majesty has handed over the power to control the six palaces to me, and I always have to share the worries for Your Majesty." ”
"I don't know why the queen is looking for me today? If it's not important, I'm going back. ”
"Eh, what's my sister anxious about?"
The queen pulled the person back, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said, "This palace is looking for my sister to come over, naturally there is something wrong, and it is a big deal." ”
"My sister forgot, this is the day when the palaces go to the internal affairs office to receive the moon and everything."
As soon as Concubine Zhen heard this, her whole person tensed her nerves, waiting for the queen's next words.
"But the girl who went to get the moon in Jiaofang Hall today hasn't sent anything back until night, and even no one has come back."
"This palace is reassuring in the end."
The queen glanced at Concubine Zhen, "Let Mei Yi go out with a few little eunuchs to look for it." ”
"Who knows, the palace maid is dead."
"Dead?" Concubine Zhen was stunned, "How could she die?" ”
"Is my sister making a show for Hongu now?" The queen smiled meaningfully, "This palace still wants to ask my sister about you, this palace maid...... How could he die!? ”
"It's true that as my sister said, this harem is managed by my sister, if other palace maids usually die, this palace can't be managed, but now it's the people in the palace who are dead, and this palace has to be managed."
Concubine Zhen's face was ugly, and she laughed twice, "It's just a palace maid, there are so many dog slaves serving in this palace, if you die today and die tomorrow, where can I take care of it." ”
"If there is really a shortage of such a palace maid in my sister's palace, I will ask Aoyagi to pick a clever one for my sister and send it over another day."
Concubine Zhen looked like she was making a fuss.
The queen chuckled twice, "If that's the case, the palace won't ask my sister to come over." But the death of this palace maid is really strange, it was ...... Pushed into a dry well. ”
Concubine Zhen looked at the queen puzzled,
I thought to myself, the queen is afraid that she is not crazy? A palace maid was pushed into a dry well, could it be that the queen felt that she pushed it?!
The queen looked at Mei Yi, who retreated respectfully, and brought a little eunuch with her after a while.
The little eunuch looked at the two masters sitting above, and knelt on the ground in fright, without even raising his head.
"See the queen's mother, see the concubine Zhen's mother."
"See the queen's mother, see the concubine Zhen's mother."
The queen interrupted him impatiently, "Speak, tell me everything you know and see." ”
The little eunuch glanced apprehensively in the direction of Concubine Zhen, and then said, "Slave, the slave is on an errand in the Internal Affairs Office, today the slave saw Cui'er from the Jiaofang Palace coming to fetch things, and saw that Gonggong He specially asked which palace Cui'er belonged to." As soon as Gonggong He heard that Cui'er was from Jiaofang Palace, he immediately refused to give her things......
The two had a quarrel, and the trouble became more and more ugly, Father-in-law He, Father-in-law He gave her things. ”
When Concubine Zhen heard this, her brows furrowed slightly.
After she remembered that incident, she clearly instructed He Yue not to deduct anything from the Jiaofang Hall in the future.
He Yue obviously promised her, how could he turn around and do it?
"Did you hear that? Younger sister. The queen looked at Concubine Zhen, "This matter is not as simple as you think. If it's just a palace maid who dies, this palace won't look for you in person. ”
"Now in this situation, it is clear that He Yue is dissatisfied with this palace!"
"After he had an argument with Cui'er, he was still dissatisfied that Cui'er took the things away, so he followed."
"Pushed Cui'er down along with the things."
Mei Yi said in a deep voice, "When Cui'er was salvaged, she was still clutching the things in her hand tightly. ”
The queen looked at Concubine Zhen, whose face was as white as paper, and smiled coldly, "A servant of the Internal Affairs Office, he doesn't dare to go against this palace, there must be someone behind him, are you right?" Sister Zhenfei. ”
Concubine Zhen's eyes flashed slightly, "This, this ......"
