Chapter 699: The Arrival of Madame Wang
Invite Lord Huang in. ”
Let the imperial doctor go down to decoct the medicine, and Murong Hui went to ask people to invite Lord Huang.
"Is this the inner palace, it's not appropriate to let the forbidden army in, or let the head of the Imperial Forest Army come over, what does Sister Hui want to ask?"
At this time, Murong Ning on the side suddenly spoke.
"I want to find someone with higher martial arts, check the injury on the head of the lord of Cheng County, if it is a person with martial arts, they will definitely be able to see it, so that at least the scope of the investigation can be narrowed."
As soon as Murong Hui said his thoughts, Murong An waved his hand and asked the guards around him to invite Lord Chen, the commander of the Royal Forest Army.
"Your Highness, it has been found out. The thief passed through the ice cellar and opened the wall to put the county lord in the dark room. ”
At this time, Qingyue came over and said with a sweat.
"It's hard work, you go back and rest for a while, and I'll tell others to do the rest."
Qingyue's injury is not yet healed, and now this toss looks a little embarrassed.
Qingyue lowered her head and glanced at her soiled shoes, and hurriedly replied, and hurriedly retired.
"An'er, Ning'er, I still have to bother you, to investigate the guards of the ice cellar, two big living people in and out of the ice cellar, these people can't be unaware."
Seeing the two of them coming, Murong Hui simply let them do it.
This matter does not seem to be big on the surface, but in fact, it does imply that there is a problem with the security of the imperial city, and even if these two don't care about everything on weekdays, it is impossible to sit idly by at this time.
Otherwise, someone may be stabbed to death in bed one day.
After Lord Chen, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, walked in, Murong An immediately informed Lord Chen of this time.
"Your Highness, rest assured, the minister has sent someone to control everyone on duty in the ice cellar today, check them one by one, and be sure to find out the results."
Lord Chen's attitude towards Murong Ning and Murong An was very respectful, although he looked very calm on the surface, the anger in his eyes was very obvious.
Even if the two of them don't mention this matter, he will definitely investigate it strictly, within his jurisdiction, losing the daughter of a Zhengerpin is definitely his dereliction of duty, and he will definitely have to bear the responsibility for it.
"Lord Chen, please take a look, the injury on the head of the lord of Cheng County, is it a person who knows martial arts?"
Seeing that the conversation was over, Murong Hui asked.
Lord Chen answered, walked up to the county lord of Cheng, touched her head a few times, then turned his head and said: "The minister was on the side in his early years, and he knows a lot about external injuries, and the injuries of the county lord of Cheng are like traces of being hit by sharp objects. ”
After speaking, he casually picked up the shoes of the county lord of Cheng and showed them to Murong Hui, and then pointed to the royal forest army who came in together and said, "Cover up for Your Highness." ”
The Ranger glanced at the obvious scratches under his shoes, then glanced around the room, and finally reached the corner of the table, pretending to fall with his head up, hitting his head right at the corner of the table.
However, this man's martial arts skills are good, and he controls his strength well, so he is not injured.
"Mama Huang, block Zhengyang Palace and go inside to check."
Murong Hui reacted immediately, and hurriedly ordered Mama Huang next to her.
"So the old slave remembered that in the place where he picked up the main hairband of Cheng County, there was indeed a Huanghuali table that was crooked, and the floor around it was also very clean, so it was wiped by someone."
Mama Huang thought about it carefully, then ordered someone to block Zhengyang Palace, and then said with a sudden face.
"That's right, if you are so seriously injured, you will definitely shed a lot of blood, if you don't know martial arts, it is very likely that you will think that the county lord of Cheng County will not survive in a panic, so she is in a hurry to hide her."
Murong Ning's face was pale, obviously angry, he really didn't expect that such a thing would happen in such a well-guarded palace.
"Go and tell those noble girls that the county lord of Cheng has been found, and she will wake up in a few days, and then she will know who harmed her."
Murong Hui listened to Murong Ning's words, and couldn't help but feel cold all over her body, she took a deep breath before she calmed herself down, and commanded Mama Huang.
Mama Huang sneered, and now she thinks with her toes, knowing that this matter must have something to do with the women in the study.
"It's not early today, I'm afraid it's not good to block the city gate again, and the Cheng County Lord is so seriously injured, it is obviously impossible to hide it."
Murong Ning glanced at Mama Huang, who was walking away, and naturally guessed what Murong Hui meant, since the matter here has been resolved, then the palace door can be opened and some irrelevant people can be released.
"Then notify Lord Huang to lift the blockade of the palace gate, but everyone who enters and leaves must be checked. Those noble ladies will be released later, I am frightened today, and I need them to stay in the palace with me for the night!" ”
Murong Hui decided that the girls in the study must be involved.
Murong An glanced at Murong Hui in some surprise, he had always been this cousin soft, very talkative, and there were a lot of things.
But now it seems that he knows too little about Murong Hui, and now he sees a little bit of his mother's shadow in Murong Hui.
After hearing this, Lord Chen answered, and left with his men.
"Since there's nothing to do, let's go back first."
Murong An came to his senses, saluted Murong Hui perfunctorily, and then pulled Murong Ning away.
Originally, assisting in the affairs of the palace was Murong Hui's job, if it wasn't for the fact that this time the matter was too big, he would definitely not be too lazy to take care of it.
Murong Ning looked helpless, he hurriedly saluted and said, "Sister Hui, if you have anything to help, just go to us, we will definitely try our best to help." ”
"If you have worked, you should rest early."
Murong Hui nodded, and couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, although these two brothers were not very close to her, but at the critical moment, they were quite cooperative, which was enough for her.
"Your Highness, you haven't had dinner yet, so it's better to go to the East Wing Hall to rest for a while."
At this time, Mama Zhang came over, helped Murong Hui sit down, and reminded.
If she didn't say it, Murong Hui really didn't feel hungry, hearing her say this, Murong Hui only felt her stomach gurgling.
She rubbed her stomach and glanced at the county lord of Cheng uneasily, she was afraid that some people would take the opportunity to kill the county lord of Cheng, and there would be no proof of death.
At this time, I saw Gao Ziyue and Xu Qing rushing back, both of them were not very good, and Gao Ziyue's hair was a little messy, as if she had fought with someone.
"How did you get this?"
Murong Hui hurriedly stood up, walked up to the two of them and asked.
"Of course, the little hooves...... They had to make trouble, so I got angry and reasoned with them. It doesn't matter, I won anyway! ”
Gao Ziyue raised her head proudly, and the little red flower on her head was shaken like this, and it fell down directly, and the atmosphere froze in an instant.
"Your Highness, don't you know how fierce those noble ladies were just now, if it weren't for the old slave who later opened and closed them, I'm afraid that the roof of the upper study would have been lifted."
Mama Huang walked in and said with a smile on her face.
"I have to work hard for you today, keep an eye on the county lord of Cheng, and don't let her have anything to do."
After Murong Hui finished speaking, she beckoned someone to set up a meal, and pulled Xu Qing and Gao Ziyue to have dinner together, so she planned to go to the study to see when these noble girls would persist before they would confess.
However, as soon as she finished eating, she saw Qingyan running in and whispered, "Your Highness, Mrs. Wang is here." ”
Murong Hui couldn't help but pause, and before she could react, Qingyan hurriedly explained: "It's the mother of the county lord of Cheng who came over." ”
"It's really fast."
Murong Hui smiled, then ordered someone to serve tea and waited for Mrs. Wang to come in.
Not long after, I saw a woman wearing a lotus-colored brocade pleated skirt, walking in quickly, with a lot of pearls and emeralds in her black hair, which was illuminated by the palace lamps of Ningcui Palace, and looked brilliant.
And this woman has exquisite makeup, obviously dressed up deliberately.
Afterwards, Gao Ziyue thought of this Mrs. Wang, and teased, if I didn't know that His Majesty has no concubines today, I would have thought she was the mother of which palace.
Seeing Mrs. Wang's dress, Murong Hui and the others were not surprised, after all, this Mrs. Wang was not the biological mother of the county lord of Cheng, but a stepmother.
If it weren't for this, which mother would have been in the mood to dress up after learning that her daughter had been seriously injured in the palace.
Or maybe she already knew that the Lord of Cheng County would have an accident in the palace, so she dressed up early, knowing that she would definitely enter the palace today.
"Meet Your Highness."
Mrs. Wang was quite decent, and came up to salute before looking towards the inner hall.
"Mrs. Wang, let's get even. Sit. ”
Murong Hui was not in a hurry to talk about the county lord of Cheng, she wanted to judge what the purpose of this Mrs. Wang entering the palace was.
"Your Highness, dare to ask Cheng'er how is her situation now?"
Mrs. Wang was straight to the point, she stared at Murong Hui's smile in her eyes, and felt that the other person was just a nine-year-old girl, and she was not afraid at all.
With a little coaxing, everything will be told.
"Mrs. Wang, do you know that today, who did the county lord of Cheng have a holiday with?"
Murong Hui looked at her calmly, but did not answer her question.
Mrs. Wang frowned, her willow eyebrows were slightly raised, and she looked very delicate.
"Your Highness, the courtiers want to bring Cheng'er back to the mansion to recuperate, and she looks like this now, it is really not appropriate to bother Your Highness."
Mrs. Wang quickly adjusted her expression and continued to speak gently.
"First, the doctor's medical skills in your house are definitely not as good as the imperial doctor, with the imperial doctor in the palace, the county lord of Cheng can get better faster.
Second, this happened in the palace, and she had to stay in the palace until I found out who the murderer was. ”
Murong Hui looked at Mrs. Wang expressionlessly, anyway, this is the palace, as long as she doesn't agree, no one will want to take anyone away.
"Your Highness, since you know that the murderer is still in the palace, wouldn't it be more dangerous for Cheng'er to stay in the palace?"
Mrs. Wang stood up a little excitedly, her voice was a few decibels higher, she realized that she was a little out of shape, and hurriedly sat down again.
"There is someone in the palace who takes care of her! I might as well tell you that all the noble ladies who went to the study to study today can't leave the palace, since you are so worried about the county lord of Cheng, then stay in the palace to take care of her, and the clothes and food are all deducted from my share. ”
Murong Hui looked at her very calmly, her tone was not hurried, she always felt that there was something wrong with Mrs. Wang, and it would be great if she could be detained in the palace.
