Chapter 248: An Inexplicable Relationship

"What great mistake has been made, and it deserves a hundred rods?" Not to mention anything else, even if an adult man is punished with a hundred canes, he will go to half his life, let alone a woman like Lu Jinnian who has lived in the palace for a long time? The rod is a hundred, in fact, another meaning, isn't it to take her life.

Li Qixiu's eyes were filled with faint tears, and Ye Zhining also noticed that not only Li Qixiu, but even some of the other palace maids in the imperial dining room were also in tears at this time. But they know their duty, and no matter how sad and sad they are, they are still busy.

Because things were not as simple as imagined, Li Qixiu took Ye Zhining to the inner room, and the choked emotions calmed down a little, and Li Qixiu said: "On that day, Miss Nangong, the niece of the queen mother, entered the palace to play, and the queen mother knew that Miss Nangong liked lotus paste cake the most, so she ordered the imperial dining room to serve lotus paste cake. Originally, everything was fine, but Miss Nangong fell into a coma in bed after eating the lotus paste cake sent by the imperial dining room.

According to the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor, the lotus paste cake was mixed with a kind of poisonous substance, which was very rare, and it was only the imperial doctor who was well-informed to identify it. Because there was a problem with the lotus paste cake, the palace maids who participated in it that day, including the aunt of the housekeeper, were brought into the Zongren Mansion.

Aunt Jinnian was in the Zongren Mansion, and she was frequently troubled, and then the queen didn't know where she heard that Princess Mo and Aunt Jinnian had a good relationship. Miss Nangong talked about her holiday with you again, and in the end, the queen thought that Aunt Jinnian wanted to poison Miss Nangong with that rare poison because of your relationship.

And Aunt Jinnian, under the incomprehension of a hundred words, knew that someone wanted her to die. And she simply took all the blame on herself, but she never mentioned the poisoning. But despite this, the queen mother has also lowered the punishment, a hundred rods, indeed to ask for Aunt Jinnian's life. Because Miss Nangong had nothing else to do, the queen mother was also afraid that Princess Mo would pursue it, so she didn't directly give people to death. But in this way, it is more painful than letting her die directly. ”

For the rest, there is no need for Li Qixiu to say, Ye Zhining also knows. After the cane, the person's body itself is weak, and without medicine, even if he is not infected with wind and cold, I am afraid that he will not live long......

It's just, such a lame reason, "Queen Mother, do you really believe it?" Such a motive is not enough to constitute murder at all, and Aunt Jinnian has lived in the palace for decades, how can she be such a stupid person. Maybe it's really as you said, it's the queen who wants her to die. ”

Li Qixiu didn't say anything more, could it be that what she said today was beyond the scope of what she should say. It's just that such a thing will happen to Lu Jinnian, and one day, it will also happen to her Li Qixiu, if she is still like before.

Sighing slightly, Ye Zhining thought of what Lu Jinnian said before, that the murderer who killed Concubine Rong was in Fengluan Palace. Perhaps, that person secretly poisoned and wanted to blame...... Perhaps, is it Nangong Yanran?

It's just that if it was Nangong Yanran, why did she want to harm Lu Jinnian? Is it just because of yourself?

"Aunt Jinnian, did she see anyone before leaving?" Ye Zhining looked at Li Qixiu in front of her, and from Li Qixiu's words just now, she obviously had a sincere intention. Although Li Qixiu is just a female streamer and a housekeeper in the palace, her identity can also do a lot of things. Ye Zhining didn't mind, in the palace, she installed her own people, and this person was smart enough.

Nodding slightly, Li Qixiu said softly: "There is one person, if I am not mistaken, that person should be Aunt Xiaoqiu in Fengluan Palace." ”

It turned out to be that Xiaoqiu, but the black jade, which was given to Xiaoqiu at that time. Ye Zhining didn't show anything, and nodded slightly, "Who is this Aunt Xiaoqiu?" ”

"Aunt Xiaoqiu, the time to enter the palace is still short, but because it has to be reused by the queen's mother, she is promoted as the aunt in charge. I remember that at that time, Aunt Xiaoqiu should have been rewarded by the queen mother to the crown princess and went to the prince's mansion. So, when I met that night, I was also surprised. If she hadn't happened to send something to Lu Jinnian at that time, she wouldn't have seen it at all.

"Are they in the palace, do they have an intersection?" Ye Zhining asked softly.

Shaking his head slightly, Li Qixiu didn't know if it was really not, or if he didn't know, "At least in my opinion, Aunt Jinnian and Aunt Xiaoqiu should not know each other." But I've always had a bad relationship with Aunt Jinnian, maybe I don't know it. ”

Speaking of his bad relationship with Lu Jinnian, Li Qixiu was extremely calm, and seemed to have forgotten Ye Zhining in front of him and had a good relationship with Lu Jinnian. Perhaps, in her eyes, she doesn't care.

"I'll figure out their relationship, it seems that some people are secretly doing it, but I don't know the purpose of that person, it's me or Aunt Jinnian." If it were himself, then Lu Jinnian would have died because of himself. Thinking back to the time when she wanted to know the truth and visited often, was she wrong at that time? Perhaps, she should come secretly......

In Fengluan Palace, as long as you have a heart, you can know that you are investigating the death of Concubine Rong. And she frequently went to find Lu Jinnian, it was difficult for people not to doubt it, it was indeed her original self, and she underestimated those people.

Seeing that Ye Zhining was no longer speechless, Li Qixiu said softly: "Princess Mo, I have been fighting with her for decades, and now that she is gone, I just want to ask you for one thing." As long as you can find the murderer and avenge her, I, Li Qixiu, am willing to saddle the horse for Princess Mo. ”

"Aunt Qixiu has a heart, I believe that Aunt Jinnian will be happy if she knows what Aunt Qixiu said." Sometimes, enemies may be more righteous than friends. Because some enemies are not eternal enemies, and enemies are always the ones who know you best.

When Ye Zhining and Xiao Tao left the imperial dining room, it was still not late, but Ye Zhining's heart was sunk, gloomy and gloomy. From the imperial dining room to the palace gate, Ye Zhining did not speak along the way, and the little peach behind her looked at Ye Zhining like this, and she didn't dare to say anything. She had only vaguely heard something outside the door, but she hadn't made any effort to eavesdrop, so she didn't know what was being said.

It wasn't until she arrived at the gate of the palace that Ye Zhining saw Dongfang Mo who was still waiting at the gate of the palace, but she was a little surprised, she thought he had left...... Maybe it's something that people are feeling down, and they always want to be accompanied. So when she saw Dongfang Mo waiting, Ye Zhining's heart warmed slightly, and she stepped forward and threw herself into Dongfang Mo's arms.

Holding Ye Zhining in her arms, Dongfang Mo felt some changes in Ye Zhining, and she didn't understand, what was wrong with her? Thinking that what Ye Zhining said just now was to find someone, could it be that what happened to that person? There is no doubt that Dongfang Mo is the truth.

Leaning on Dongfang Mo's arms for a while, Ye Zhining let go of Dongfang Mo and herself. To be honest, wearing a hat is very inconvenient, Ye Zhining can't help but miss Cheng Jingran a little, and she doesn't know when his medicine will be adjusted......

"Let's go, I want to go home......" Ye Zhining looked up at Dongfang Mo, and said softly in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Hmm!" Nodding affirmatively, Dongfang Mo led Ye Zhining to the carriage, got on first, and then helped Ye Zhining up. Looking at the two people in the carriage, Xiao Tao consciously sat in front and didn't bother the two.

Ye Zhining, who was in the carriage, took off the hat on her head and kept leaning on Dongfang Mo's arms. The two didn't say a word along the way, but it was better than anything, because Dongfang Mo knew that Ye Zhining was in a bad mood at this time, so he would rather accompany her so quietly.

Before getting out of the car, Ye Zhining put on the hat again, and before removing the marks on her forehead, it was obvious that she still wanted to be accompanied by the hat. Looking at Ye Zhining's slightly frowning appearance, Dongfang Mo was also a little unbearable, "If you don't like it, we won't wear it." Because Ye Zhining didn't tell him that Cheng Jingran was making medicine, in his subconscious, Ye Zhining would be like this for the rest of his life. Since it is a lifetime, if Ye Zhining hates the hat, don't wear it, otherwise how aggrieved will it be for a lifetime?

Looking at Dongfang Mo funny, Ye Zhining shook her head slightly, "If you don't wear it, it will only cause more trouble." By the way, have you heard the rumors outside? ”

"You don't have to pay attention to all that nonsense, I'll take care of it." Dongfang Mo knew where Ye Zhining went during that time and what happened, although the people behind the scenes made it up well, but unfortunately he knew the complete truth. Even if no one believes, he will make those believe......

In fact, Ye Zhining wanted to say that she had already mastered a little clue, but looking at Dongfang Mo's determined look, she still didn't say it, anyway, her man was very motivated...... Ye Zhining smiled evilly in her heart, but Dongfang Mo didn't know that just such a sentence gave herself a lot of detours.

After returning to the palace, everything was as usual, but obviously, rumors from the outside world had spread into the Mowang Mansion. Because there are many rumors that people are being bullied, but in fact there are none, so not many people believe it. It's just a huge Mowang Mansion, and not everyone who believes in it doesn't have it, so it can only be said that it is a matter of time, and a person can also influence the people around him.

Steward Wang naturally stood by Ye Zhining's side, because he also knew about Ye Zhining's martial arts from Dongfang Mo's mouth, and more importantly, before Ye Zhining disappeared, Steward Wang already knew. pretended that Ye Zhining was taken away, and there was also a share of Steward Wang.

And Ye Zhining, who returned to the palace, had nothing abnormal when she staggered past the rest of the people. Although some people had a slightly strange gaze, she only glanced at it lightly. Returning to Moxuan Garden with Dongfang Mo, Ye Zhining did not hide from Dongfang Mo, and told Lu Jinnian that he might die because of himself.

And Dongfang Mo and Ye Zhining's conjecture is similar, I'm afraid that what that person wants to deal with should be Ye Zhining.
