Chapter 523: Falling into the Well

523

Wei Yining listened to Aunt Chunhe's words, her eyebrows frowned slightly, Liu Cairen, who was originally favored, is now crazy and arrogant, while Xu Guifei, who was not very favored, is on the rise.

This may be a coincidence, or it may be the result of a deliberate attempt.

Although I don't know how good the relationship between the two of them was back then, but now, Xu Guifei didn't take care of this down-and-out sister.

Including Princess Qinghua, the people over there who haven't seen her have any sympathy for her, every time she is sick, she is not as good as the county lord Duanmin and others to visit.

Wei Yining only heard about Ding Neijian from Wei Zongyong's mouth, but now it seems that she has concluded that Xu Guifei was also involved in the affairs of the year.

still remembers the father-in-law Luo who was imprisoned in the cold palace and abused in disguise, he was originally the master of Ding Neijian and the head of Runzhi Palace.

The king was defeated, Luo's father-in-law lost power, and Ding Neijian took the throne, along with their masters.

There must be a thrilling inside story in this.

It's just that at present, the truth of the year cannot be deduced based on what she knows, and she still needs to be further investigated.

"By the way, auntie, when did the prince conceived by Liu Cairen die young? Do you remember? Wei Yining asked, if you want to find out what happened back then, you must figure out the time node to get the right number.

"Well, let me think about it, after all, it's been too long." Aunt Chunhe thought while tapping her fingers on her head, as if this could awaken the old memories: "At that time, the Empress Dowager Mingxian died, and the palace was in chaos. Then I heard about Liu Cairen's miscarriage. It's just that at that time, they were busy mourning, and they didn't care to pay attention to her side of things. Later, Rou Nu died, and I also left Cuiming Palace. ”

"I heard that the Empress Dowager Xian died of illness, but what is the disease, can my aunt tell me?" Wei Yining asked.

"Miss Wei, didn't you just ask one thing?" Aunt Chunhe said, "You better sit down first, and I'll pour you a bowl of tea." ”

Wei Yining smiled, he did ask more and more.

"Ouch, look at my memory, there's no water." Aunt Chunhe picked up the kettle and found that there was no water in it, and said embarrassedly, "Girl, wait a minute, I'll go get some water." ”

"Auntie doesn't have to bother, I'm not thirsty." Wei Yining said.

"Well, you've come here to see me. I always want to do my best to be a host, but I don't have good tea here, so don't dislike it. Aunt Chunhe looked apologetic.

Hearing her say this, Wei Yining couldn't refuse.

It can be seen that Aunt Chunhe is an upright and strong person, since she said so, she didn't treat Wei Yining as an outsider, if she was too polite, it would make her feel uncomfortable.

Aunt Chunhe put on an old cotton coat on the outside, and buttoned the top button.

"I'll turn off the lights first, and don't let anyone know that you're here with me." Aunt Chunhe blew out the oil lamp, walked out with a kettle, and deliberately closed the door before going out.

The doors and windows of the cold palace were old and old, and no one had repaired them, so Wei Yi sat quietly in the dark. Listen to the cold wind blowing and the screeching of doors and windows.

The old window paper has long been dilapidated after the wind and rain, and the cold wind blows into the house vigorously.

Wei Yining tried to wear through the events of the year in his mind, like a grass snake gray line, flickering and flickering.

"There are still a few joints that have not been figured out, as long as these are straightened out, we will be able to find out the truth of the year." Wei Yining thought silently in his heart.

The reason why she ran to Aunt Chunhe to ask about the relationship between Xu Guifei and Liu Cairen back then was just because she saw Ding Neijian go to Liu Cairen today, Wei Yining's first feeling was that this matter seemed very unreasonable, and there must be a reason behind the more unreasonable things were.

Originally, she thought that Liu Cairen had nothing to do with her father's wrongdoing, but now it seems that this may not be the case, it is likely that the events of the year were intertwined with each other, and these people also played some role.

It's a pity that these people are crazy, dumb, and dead.

Ding Neijian must have known, but he would never tell Wei Yining, she had to check it herself.

"Oh no! Come on, someone's falling into the well! Someone shouted hoarsely in the distance.

"Hurry, hurry! Fish people up, maybe there will be salvation. "Somebody started looking around for rope.

This voice immediately aroused Wei Yining's alarm, and she hurriedly stood up, opened the door and ran out.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, she hid behind a tree and watched the people gathered around the mouth of the well pull the people inside.

"Yo, isn't this Chunhe? How did she fall into the well? "Someone recognized the man who fell into the water.

"Don't look at it, it's already out of breath! Didn't you see that there was such a big blood hole in her head? Another said.

Wei Yining's heart suddenly fell, and Aunt Chunhe came out to carry water, but she actually fell into the well and died.

Was it an accident or a murderous act?

She endured and endured, so she didn't come forward.

In this palace, no one cares about an old palace maid in the cold palace falling into a well, but there will definitely be people who are interested in the appearance of Duanmin's companion in the cold palace at night.

Wei Yining's eyes flashed with the cold eyes of Ding Neijian and the corners of his mouth that were always upturned.

Before finding out the truth, Wei Yining will never allow himself to act rashly.

"Aunt Chunhe, please forgive me for not being able to come forward at this moment. I promise that I will pay tribute to you at four o'clock until I die." Wei Yining silently promised in his heart.

She didn't want to bother others, but Aunt Chunhe's death made her blame herself.

"If Aunt Chunhe's death is not an accident, then it is possible that Ding Neijian and others have already begun to guard against me." Wei Yining walked back, slowly thinking in his heart: "I have to be more careful." ”

When I returned to the Jin Pavilion, I happened to see my two palace maids Autumn Equinox and Bai Lu coming out to find her with lanterns.

When the two saw Wei Yining, they hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why has the girl been gone for so long?" The county lord didn't worry, so he sent us out to find it! ”

Wei Yining suppressed the emotions in his heart, and said gently as usual: "I just took a detour, so I came back late." Let's go inside! ”

"The queen mother has rewarded a lot of brocades, and the county lord said that you should choose a few of your favorite materials." The autumn equinox said: "It's all new tribute this year, and the tricks are good-looking." ”

Wei Yining was actually not interested in these, but still said: "Okay, then I'll take a look, I heard the county lord mention making clothes a few days ago." ”

Wei Yining walked in, and Lord Duanmin turned around and beckoned to her, "Yining, come and see, which ones do you like?" I also chose it for Lan Qi, and when she recovered from her illness and returned to the palace, her clothes would be ready. ”
