Xian Guifei didn't want Yun Guifei to know about this incident that made her lose face, and when Wan Lin and others were in trouble, she still relieved everyone.

"They're here to find Hongu, what does it have to do with you? The queen is grounded in the palace, and the palace is now temporarily in charge of the six palaces, what? Do you want to take charge of the affairs of the six palaces? ”

Concubine Xian has never been so aggressive, Concubine Yun was taken aback by her appearance, although there were 100,000 unconvinced in her heart, she couldn't make trouble in front of so many outsiders.

Seeing that she was silent, Concubine Xian said again: "We are doing business, if we delay, can you bear the responsibility?" What about the people, why don't you send Yun Guifei yet? ”

After Concubine Xian finished speaking, she walked over to a few eunuchs and palace maids to invite Concubine Yun out.

"Hmph, let's go! Anyway, Hongu will know sooner or later! ”

Yun Guifei flicked her sleeves away angrily, but everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After Fu Xiaojiu breathed a sigh of relief, his tone became a lot softer.

"Guifei Niangniang, I'm not here to embarrass you or question you, I just want to investigate that you are a palace maid by your side. As long as you are willing to cooperate with us to call all the palace maids in your palace, when we find the palace maid who colluded with the killer, the truth will be revealed. In fact, the concubine thinks that the biggest possibility is that someone is wronging His Royal Highness King Jie. Don't you really want me to wait for the truth to find out? ”

Fu Xiaojiu's words are not unreasonable, as long as Concubine Xian is willing to cooperate with them, even if she really finds out about the palace maid, she can blame the palace maid for everything.

Fu Xiaojiu and the others all think like this, if the emperor doesn't want to embarrass Concubine Xian and King Jie too much, he can also let the palace maid and Guo Yi carry the black pot.

Such an outcome, while unfair, is the most likely to happen.

Looking at Fu Xiaojiu's earnest eyes, Concubine Xian's expression also looked a little shaken.

Huo Jing said again at this time: "Guifei Niangniang, please help the ministers wait!" Otherwise, the ministers will not be able to explain to Your Majesty! ”

Concubine Yun Guifei watched the excitement just now, and Concubine Xian estimated that the entire harem would know about Huo Jing and others coming to her.

If this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, it will not only make more people see the joke, but also threaten her status in the palace, and it will make King Jie unable to get rid of suspicion.

After thinking about it for a while, Concubine Xian finally changed her attitude.

"Okay, since you want to investigate, then this palace will cooperate with you."

After Concubine Xian finished speaking, she called all the palace maids in her palace over and stood in a row.

Fu Xiaojiu didn't pay attention to her appearance when he smelled the smell of the palace maid today, so he had to re-identify the palace maid among these palace maids.

She first took a cursory look at the dozen or so palace maids, wanting to see if they were flustered from the expressions of the eyes.

But what disappointed Fu Xiaojiu was that if they either lowered their heads, or they looked dazed, they couldn't see who was flustered.

Fu Xiaojiu didn't smell them one by one from the beginning, but walked past them first.

After only one trip, Fu Xiaojiu could probably smell the smell of ginger powder on his body.

Fu Xiaojiu turned back and stopped in front of the palace maid.

"The person who has the same turmeric powder smell on the killer is her."

Fu Xiaojiu grabbed the palace maid's wrist as he spoke.

This palace maid's name is Han Yan, and she is a close palace maid who serves Xian Guifei to comb her hair.

Han Yan immediately retorted: "Ah, what are you talking about? Slaves don't understand! ”

When Concubine Xian saw that Fu Xiaojiu had actually testified against her, she was stunned at first, and then said, "Fu Langzhong, are you sure?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu explained affirmatively: "Ginger powder is made of one pound of raw rehmannia and four taels of ginger, after pounding and grinding and stirring evenly, wrap the wound in a cloth while it is hot, and replace it when it is cold. Originally, the smell would not stay on the applicator for a long time, but if she accidentally sprinkled the powder on her body during the application process, the smell of ginger powder would not easily dissipate. ”

After Fu Xiaojiu finished speaking, he approached Han Yan and sniffed her carefully.

Sure enough, near the skirt, the taste of ground ginger powder is particularly obvious.

Fu Xiaojiu pointed to the hem of her skirt and said, "Han Yan, you must not have noticed that the ginger powder was sprinkled on your skirt at the time, right?" If I'm not mistaken, the killer must have a lot to do with you, and you took care of him when he was injured. It's a pity that he has died by the sword of the Son, and you will never see him again. ”

Fu Xiaojiu's words stabbed Han Yan's heart like a sharp knife, Han Yan couldn't control his emotions anymore, and pounced on Fu Xiaojiu through gritted teeth.

"I'm going to kill you! If it weren't for you, my cousin wouldn't have died! ”

Without waiting for Fu Xiaojiu to dodge, Wan Lin rushed over with an arrow to protect her behind him, and Huo Jing quickly grabbed Han Yan.

Fu Xiaojiu couldn't sympathize with Han Yan, looked at her and sneered: "Hehe, there is really no royal law!" Your cousin wanted to kill me but was killed by someone, but you want to blame me for not dying? Your three views are simply distorted to grandma's house! ”

After Han Yan was controlled, Concubine Xian's face became extremely ugly.

Although Huo Jing is not afraid of heaven and earth, he still knows how to advance and retreat.

Their battle today is enough to let Concubine Xian know the seriousness of the matter, and today's matter should end here before it is the best policy.

"Concubine Niangniang, the person has been found. Nachen took her to Dali Temple for interrogation first. ”

Huo Jing said respectfully.

Concubine Xian also thought that she couldn't defend Han Yan, so she had a headache and said, "You can take it away." But this palace should explain one thing in advance, no matter what Han Yan did, this palace is not aware of it, and don't involve this palace. Of course, King Jie has nothing to do with these things, I hope you can investigate carefully and don't wronged our mother and son. ”

Huo Jing agreed: "Don't worry, the concubine Niangniang, the ministers will definitely handle the case impartially, and they will definitely not wronged anyone." ”

After Huo Jing finished speaking, he glanced at Wan Lin, who nodded at him slightly, signaling that he agreed with his statement.

Concubine Xian didn't want to see these people anymore, so she waved her sleeves impatiently and said, "Let's go, investigate this matter as soon as possible, so that you can give Your Majesty and the palace an explanation." ”

"Xie Guifei Niangniang!"

Huo Jing and the others said in unison.

When everyone was about to leave, another uninvited guest suddenly came.

"His Royal Highness?" Wan Lin's heart sank when he saw Queen Jie, "Your Highness, who are you?" ”

King Jie's face was gloomy, and when he saw Wan Lin, he said unceremoniously: "Do you really dare to come to this princess?" Are you really not afraid of losing your head? ”

Wan Lin asked indifferently: "The ministers act impartially, why should they be afraid of losing their heads?" ”

King Jie wanted to reprimand Wan Lin again, but Concubine Xian stopped him.

"Jie'er, don't embarrass them. They have identified those who colluded with the killers. Anyway, it has nothing to do with our mother and son at this time, they can check it as much as they want. ”

King Jie also saw Huo Jing holding Han Yan, and a look of uncertainty quickly flashed in his eyes.

"Mother, you are the only one in the entire harem who is easy to talk to, and you really let them mess around with you! But since you don't care about them anymore, Erchen won't say anything more. ”

As he spoke, King Jie turned sideways to make way for them.

"Where are you from?" Xian Guifei asked.

"Erchen went to see his father just now, and he talked to his father for a while."

When King Jie left Dali Temple, he said that he was going to find the emperor, and he really went.

Wan Lin and the others didn't care what he said to the emperor, all they had to do was to interrogate Han Yan immediately, even if they knew that she was behind the blame, they had to interrogate her clearly.

Everyone didn't stay any longer, and hurriedly took Hanyan back to Dali Temple.

Fu Xiaojiu still had to be present as a witness in this case, but Wan Lin was afraid that she would be tired after a few tosses like this, so he wanted her to go back to rest first, and then come back when she needed to testify.

Fu Xiaojiu insisted on going to Dali Temple with them, because she wanted to know the truth as soon as possible, after all, the most direct "victim" of this case was her.

When he arrived at Dali Temple, Xing Zhida saw that they had really brought people back, and he was both happy and afraid.

Huo Jing briefly told Xing Zhida about the experience of going to see Concubine Xian, and began to interrogate Han Yan.

Xing Zhida first told Han Yan about the case they had speculated, and then said to her in a fierce voice: "Han Yan, the evidence in this case is conclusive, don't quibble." As long as you name the main messenger behind you, the official can still treat you lightly. ”

Han Yan was as stubborn as Guo Yi, twisting two delicate eyebrows and stubbornly said: "The mastermind of this matter is Guo Yi." Slaves and maids are just taking people's money and doing things for others. To be precise, it was the slave's cousin who received Guo Yi's money to assassinate Fu Langzhong. Unfortunately, my cousin was wounded in the arm a few days before the assassination, and it was the slave maid who gave him the medicine, and you found out. ”

Han Yan's eyes were full of resentment, and he didn't seem to feel that he had done anything wrong at all.

Her answer may seem like a lie to others, but Xing Zhida is very satisfied with her answer.

In this way, this matter can be over with her to the end, and Xing Zhida no longer has to worry about offending Concubine Xian and King Jie.

But as soon as Han Yan's voice fell, Huo Jing asked again in a very unfamiliar manner: "Don't think that we will believe you when you say this!" Although Guo Yi is the cousin of King Jie, how can he have the courage to threaten Fulang Zhong to bring down the queen mother? And where can he find a killer like your cousin? Although they have become my sword ghosts, I can see that they are good at it, and they are also masters in the capital. Han Yan, if you don't tell the truth again, aren't you afraid that we will throw your cousin's body into a mass grave, so that he will not be able to rest in peace after death? ”

Huo Jing's words poked at Han Yan's sore spot again, but even if she felt pain in her heart, it was impossible to tell what she was doing behind the scenes.

"Everything the slave said is true! The slave's cousin told the slave that Guo Yi planned everything! The slave's cousin is dead, and if you don't believe what the slave says, the slave and the maid can't do anything! ”
