“…… Oh? Ye Qingyan looked up at him, "Your Majesty promised the concubine before that she would never meet with Concubine Xue, and in the end, she didn't meet either, and she accepted as a concubine." ”

Xiao Changqi: "...... I was wrong! ”

The ancients were honest and did not deceive, and would rather offend villains than women. Because her ability to turn over accounts and hold grudges is absolutely unique in heaven and earth, and she can't prevent it, and the only way to admit her mistakes and beg for mercy is to do so.

In fact, the premise of his promise had long since been established, because as early as Wanjian Villa, he had seen Concubine Xue, but he didn't know her identity at that time.

……

The dark moonless night gives people a depressing and ominous feeling.

Ye Qingyan bathed early and changed his clothes and went to the bed.

Chunyu covered Ye Qingyan with a quilt, "Niangniang, Your Majesty asked the palace manager to come over, saying that he was too busy over there, and he would rest in the Qinzheng Hall tonight." ”

"Hmm." Ye Qingyan looked at the gold and jade ring on his little finger and turned it slightly.

"You go and make a trip to the palace, and let him help the palace find someone."

"Looking for someone? Who is it? ”

"A Taoist priest, Qiu Cicada."

"Autumn cicadas? Autumn cicadas? ”

"Oh, yes, the cicadas in autumn can't jump for two days, but they have to let him jump."

"Slave and maid, go now."

"Wait a minute, Qiu Cicada has recognized a righteous son, called Qiu Ruzi, you can ask Qiu Ruzi if you know the news of Qiu Cicada."

"Yes, sissy."

After serving Ye Qingyan to lie down, Chunyu put on a cloak and went to the Qinzheng Palace to find Gong Cheng.

After Chunyu left, Ye Qingyan quickly got up from the couch, and then took out the night clothes she asked Chunyu to prepare for her from the wardrobe.

Chunyu has one thing very good, that is, she doesn't ask what she shouldn't ask, but she won't let go of what she can. There is a natural sensitivity to the degree of the problem. For example, this nightdress, she asked her to prepare, she prepared, and she didn't ask her what she was doing in the nightdress. But if she had made her own night clothes, she would definitely break the casserole and ask the end.

After changing her clothes, Ye Qingyan let go of her mental power, and the entire Kunyuan Palace was within the range of her mental power. There are no small people entering the Kunyuan Palace, and those palace maids and eunuchs are also performing their own duties, or they will whisper, and they are all talking about other palaces, and they will not talk about her as the master.

After making sure that there was nothing abnormal, Ye Qingyan left Kunyuan Palace.

She was going to Qixiang Palace to see what Xue Yao was doing? When I said hello in the morning, it was obvious that something was wrong.

However, when she arrived at Qixiang Palace, she didn't find anything abnormal.

Concubine Xue has already rested, and her close-fitting bell of the palace maid is holding an embroidered bandage, slowly embroidering flowers to pass the loneliness of the vigil.

How so? Could it be that she was feeling wrong?

Ye Qingyan didn't leave, he kept staring at Concubine Xue, until he stared at Zi, and when he was about to be ugly, he quietly left Qixiang Palace.

Although nothing happened in Qixiang Palace, it was indeed not a peaceful night!

Ye Jingning, the seventh lady of Ye Mansion, ran away from home, no one knew where she went, and the entire Ye Mansion was a mess.

There is another place that is also brightly lit and chaotic.

The General's Palace!

……

Ye Qingyan stared at Concubine Xue for half a night, and when she returned to Kunyuan Palace, she immediately fell asleep.

When he was about to sleep, he also told the palace people that if there were concubines who came to ask for peace after dawn, they would let them go back, and they would be exempted from asking for peace today.

So, she didn't wake up until near noon.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Changqi wearing a bright yellow dragon robe on the couch by the window of the dormitory, playing a seemingly casual game with himself.

"Awake?" Xiao Changqi has been paying attention to Ye Qingyan distractedly.

Ye Qingyan rubbed his eyes and sat up, "Hmm." You should still be dealing with politics at this time, right? ”

Xiao Changqi's slender jade-white fingers took a black spot and landed on the chessboard.

"Something's in trouble." Xiao Changqi got up from the couch, "I'm waiting for you in the study." ”

"Okay." Ye Qingyan was ready to freshen up.

After almost a cup of tea, Ye Qingyan dressed in a regular palace dress, and his hair was casually tied in a simple bun and went to the study.

Xiao Changqi sat at the table, holding a book in his hand and reading.

Seeing that Ye Qingyan was coming, he put down the concerto.

"Ouyang Yulin died last night."

"What!?" As soon as Ye Qingyan heard the news, it was like hearing a thunderbolt from the sky.

Xiao Changqi continued: "The eyeballs burst out, the seven orifices bled to death, and there was no blood left when the skin was cut. ”

In just a few words, people can already imagine that the death must be extremely miserable!

Ye Qingyan was shocked when he heard it, "I'...... Last night, I stared at Concubine Xue in Qixiang Palace, and I didn't come back until I was ugly, so I woke up late. ”

"Is there anything unusual about Concubine Xue?"

"No, she slept well and didn't even get up all night. Ouyang Yulin's body, has it been examined? ”

"The maid of Dali Temple has checked it, and this is the result." Hand the piece to Ye Qingyan.

Ye Qingyan took it and opened it to look at it......

After reading it, he said: "There is no poisoning." The Ouyang family also has no history of any strange diseases. Shoumiya Sand is still there. The blood all over the body is all gone, there is not a drop left, the facial features are hideous, and it is suspected that he has been tortured by great pain. ”

"It's witchcraft." Xiao Changqi affirmed.

"Witchcraft? Curse?! Ye Qingyan suddenly remembered the conversation between Concubine Xue and her second senior brother, when Concubine Xue handed over the brocade box with hair to her second senior brother, she said that she wanted her to die, and her second senior brother said a life curse!

"Curse?" Xiao Changqi looked at her, "What do you know?" ”

Ye Qingyan told Xiao Changqi what she had heard about the conversation between Concubine Xue and her second senior brother Liu Yu, and the hair in the brocade box was not hers, and also told Xiao Changqi.

After listening to her words, Xiao Changqi's face had become extremely ugly!

"Whose hair did you change at the time?" Xiao Changqi asked.

Ye Qingyan swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, because of this incident, he was suspected of spring rain......

"That...... I didn't know what she wanted my hair to do, thinking that the most I could do was make me lose my hair and become bald, or have rashes and puffiness all over my body. ”

"Tell me, I won't cure you." Xiao Changqi said, and then added, "Including spring rain." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ye Qingyan raised his hand and scratched his ears a little embarrassed, "Concubine...... The concubine asked Chunyu to take a few strands of Zheng Xiunu's hair. ”

"Zheng Xiunu?" Xiao Changqi hadn't seen the roster portraits of those show girls, and he didn't know who this Zheng Xiu girl was for a while.

Ye Qingyan continued: "It's the daughter of Master Zheng, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Zheng Jun'er. ”

"I remember that the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and Ouyang Mansion are in-laws."

"Hmm. This Zheng Jun'er, who asked Jingning to kneel at the gate of Kunyuan Palace, and also went to Changle Palace to ask for peace, was very scheming, which really made the concubines dislike. ”
