Xie Yunxiu originally wanted to enter the palace and explain to the six princes the current situation of the Wu family and others in Huangling Village, but he never thought that when he passed by the imperial garden, he heard several palace maids talking about it.

One of the slightly tall palace maids looked back and forth around, and after making sure that there was no one else, Fang deliberately lowered his voice and spoke to them, "Do you know, I heard that the spices thrown out by the Kunning Palace were eaten by the wild cats in the palace, and they suddenly died. ”

What kind of place Kunning Palace is, everyone knows it clearly.

They glanced at each other, and they couldn't believe what the palace maid at the head said.

"Are you telling the truth? You must know that it is Kunning Palace, how can there be a problem with the spices of the queen mother? ”

Several palace maids have been controversing over the spices of Kunning Palace, and they have never noticed Xie Yunxiu, who stopped not far away.

Xie Yunxiu never thought that she would hear these words so coincidentally.

He stretched out his hand to his chin, and after thinking carefully for a while, he still felt that this matter was indeed very strange, and perhaps there was some ulterior secret hidden behind this matter.

Xie Yunxiu had suspicion in her heart, and after all, she took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention to it and found the father-in-law of Kunning Palace.

He took out the silver ingots he had prepared in advance from his arms and handed them to his father-in-law in front of him, with a flattering smile on his face, "Father-in-law, this is some of my care, I still hope you can accept it." ”

Xie Yunxiu's identity is not comparable to ordinary people, and at this point, his father-in-law naturally knows it.

He obviously didn't expect Xie Yunxiu to come to him, he was inevitably stunned, and raised his eyes to look at Xie Yunxiu who had some intentions for some reason, "Is there anything that Lord Xie needs our family to do?" Our family is just an ordinary minion, and there is no need for Lord Xie to act like this. ”

Having said that, the father-in-law still did not hesitate to directly accept the silver ingots handed over by Xie Yunxiu.

Seeing his attitude, Xie Yunxiu reacted, this father-in-law agreed to help him.

He smiled without caring at all, and explained directly, "Father-in-law, I heard that the spices in Kunning Palace taste very good, so I just want to take some spice powder to find the source of this spice, and ask my father-in-law to understand." ”

Xie Yunxiu deliberately explained, and her father-in-law nodded without hesitation, revealing a look that I understood.

The father-in-law was originally a little eunuch who dealt with miscellaneous servants in Kunning Palace, and it was easy to get spices.

On this day, the father-in-law handed the spices he secretly took out to Xie Yunxiu, looked around cautiously, and only after making sure that there was no one else did he whisper, "Lord Xie, this is the spice you want, please accept it with a smile." ”

The spice looks unremarkable, nothing special at all.

But because there is no abnormality on the surface, Xie Yunxiu always feels that this spice is not as simple as it seems.

He thanked his father-in-law for his kindness, put away the powder left over from the spices, and left the palace in a hurry.

For a long time afterward, Xie Yunxiu kept studying this spice, but after Xie Yunxiu carefully flipped through the scroll, he realized that this was actually the acacia incense of the Western Regions.

Acacia incense is toxic, if it is used for a long time, I am afraid that it will be very harmful to the body.

When he thought of this, Xie Yunxiu's face became more and more solemn, he didn't expect the truth of this matter to be like this, and the whole person was full of surprise, even disbelief.

In order to further determine that this spice was acacia incense, Xie Yunxiu still tried to investigate through his father-in-law before.

But at this time, when Xie Yunxiu went to look for Xiao Li's father-in-law in Kunning Palace, he heard others say that Xiao Li's father-in-law threw himself into the well for no reason.

The little palace maid looked at Xie Yunxiu who was standing in front of her, and still couldn't help asking, "Why does Lord Xie care so much about Xiao Li's father-in-law?" Could it be that Master Xie, do you know why Xiao Li's father-in-law couldn't think of it and wanted to commit suicide by throwing himself into a well? ”

This incident really caught Xie Yunxiu by surprise.

He narrowed his eyes, and just shook his head gently, "I heard that Xiao Li's father-in-law is in the same place as my hometown, and some time ago I went back to my hometown and brought some hometown specialties, I wanted to give some to Xiao Li's father-in-law, so that he thought about it a little, but I never thought that Xiao Li's father-in-law was actually ......."

Knowing the reason, the little palace maid nodded, and then realized it.

Sensing that this matter was getting more and more weird, Xie Yunxiu still pretended to be sick, "I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, maybe it was because I didn't pay attention to the wind and cold recently, thank you Miss Qing'er for answering my questions, I will go back first." ”

Looking at Xie Yunxiu's back as she walked away, the little palace maid did not doubt this matter, but completely believed Xie Yunxiu's words.

According to common sense, there is a death in the palace of a little father-in-law who is not worth mentioning as a miscellaneous servant, and no one can care at all.

But because the people in the entire harem were watching Kunning Palace, as soon as Xiao Li's father-in-law died, someone secretly reported the matter to the six princes, and even added fuel and vinegar to say a lot of bad things about Xiao Wanyin.

The sixth prince couldn't get angry for a while, so he directly put down the fold in his hand and hurried over to Kunning Palace.

Looking at Xiao Wanyin, who was delicate and weak standing in front of him, the six princes only felt as if they had been deceived.

The sixth prince had a straight face, and his attitude was very stiff and cold, "Doesn't the queen feel that there are some things to explain to me?" ”

Hearing the words of the six princes suddenly, Xiao Wanyin probably knew the reason.

And long before this, Xiao Wanyin had already thought about how to answer the question of the six princes.

Xiao Wanyin gently raised her steps and stepped forward, stretched out her hand to pull the hand of the sixth prince, "Your Majesty, you listen to the concubine's explanation." ”

For Xiao Wanyin's coquettishness, the sixth prince turned a blind eye from beginning to end, he sat down directly on the chair, and opened his mouth again to question the reason for this matter, "Queen, don't you know that as the master of the harem, you can't do anything recklessly, lest when someone brings up this kind of thing in the future, your face will be gloomy." ”

Seeing that the six princes seemed to have identified the real reason, Xiao Wanyin raised her handkerchief to cover her face and sobbed in a low voice, "Your Majesty, why don't you want to listen to the concubine's explanation?" ”

Xiao Wanyin cried and cried, but the sixth prince couldn't bear to punish again, he waved his hand helplessly, and motioned for Xiao Wanyin to explain.

"Your Majesty, the concubine did not execute Xiao Li's father-in-law for no reason, but because he secretly stole the gold and silver jewelry that the concubine has always liked."

When she said this, Xiao Wanyin saw the six princes' brows furrowed, and she knew that he believed his words.

She calmed down her emotions a little, and continued, "Your Majesty, as the lord of the six palaces, the concubine naturally can't hold any sand in her eyes, and besides, Xiao Li's father-in-law has done this kind of immoral and shameless thing, if the concubine is not executed, I am afraid that there will be more and more such situations in the palace." ”

Xiao Wanyin directly shirked all the blame on Xiao Li's father-in-law, after all, no matter what, the current Xiao Li's father-in-law has lost his life, even if the sixth prince doesn't want to believe Xiao Wanyin's words at all, he is already dead without proof.

When the sixth prince listened to Xiao Wanyin's words, he didn't feel that this matter was Xiao Wanyin's fault, but felt that everything she did was reasonable, and she should also preside over the overall situation.

"Since this is the case, there is no need to continue to pursue it."

When Xiao Wanyin heard the words of the six princes, the big stone in her heart finally let go.

Because Hui Shangxian was worried about Qi Zhen's situation, Xie Yunxiu wanted to take the opportunity to rush over with Qi Zhen.

After all, no matter what, Qi Zhen is not a citizen of Shengguo, and even if she really leaves Huangling Village, no one can say anything more to her.

Xie Yunxiu packed up his things and came to Huangling Village, he gently raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Knock knock." ”

Because she had informed Qi Zhen in advance, she heard this voice and hurriedly went over to open the door.

Seeing Qi Zhen change into a neat robe, Xie Yunxiu asked with concern again, "Miss Qi Zhen, have you packed your things?" ”

Long before this, when Xie Yunxiu had just asked Qi Zhen if she wanted to visit Hui Shangxian, she was already fully prepared, and now everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed.

Qi Zhen nodded at Xie Yunxiu without the slightest hesitation, and took out the packed package, "I'm ready." ”

After saying goodbye to the Wu family, Qi Zhen followed Xie Yunxiu directly on the road.

There were bumps and bumps along the way, but Qi Zhen didn't cry out at all, but gritted his teeth and persevered.

Looking at Qi Zhen with this appearance, Xie Yunxiu felt that she was a little like Xiao Li before, not only was she able to bear hardships and stand hard work, but she would never be wronged because of the hardships of the road.

In order to be able to rush to the border as soon as possible and catch up with Hui Shangyi and his party, Xie Yunxiu specially asked him to travel day and night.

Even if Qi Zhen's body was unbearable at the beginning, she never gave up, but always insisted on it.

Fortunately, they never stopped, and it only took two days and one night to arrive.

But Qi Zhen and Xie Yunxiu never thought that they had worked hard for so long, and in the end, they were greeted by the arrest of the soldiers.
