After a long time, a palace maid walked out of the crowd tremblingly:

"Hui Niangniang, it's a slave."

Ling Ran glanced back at the pinching wound on Xian'er's neck again, and after confirming that it was correct, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend a clear smile, and looked back at her:

"Did you see anyone at the time? Has anyone been running in the opposite direction of the pool? ”

“…… When she returned to her mother, she saw a woman running towards her, but it was too late at night, and it was dark everywhere, and the slave and maid could not see her face clearly. The maid pointed in the direction and replied unhurriedly.

It's too late at night......

Combined with the fact that he couldn't find Xian'er's whereabouts a few days ago, Ling Ran suddenly felt that all this seemed to have been laid out a long time ago, but what were they doing to kill Xian'er? Could it be that Xian'er knows some big secret?

She frowned lightly and pondered, but at this moment, a eunuch's voice suddenly came:

"Emperor-up-on-drive-arrive!"

Chu Yijun was hurrying at this moment, and from a distance, he saw a clear and beautiful back standing there fixedly, facing Xian'er's body, and the quiet moonlight cast a silver silence on her three thousand green silks.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live." The men immediately made way for him, but he knew that he couldn't get too close to her, so he stopped at a distance.

Ling Ran slowly turned around and bowed slightly to him:

"I've seen the emperor."

The night was hazy, but Chu Yijun still saw her red eyes clearly, a trace of distress flashed in his eyes, turned to everyone, and said:

"What the hell is going on?"

The little palace maid stood up and repeated the story again, but after she finished speaking this time, she paused, and added:

"By the way, the slave maid suddenly remembered that the woman was still wearing a light green shawl at that time."

Chu Yijun was slightly stunned, and he already knew it in his heart:

"Ye Xun."

"Yes."

"Blockade Jingren Palace."

Everyone was in an uproar, Jingren Palace, isn't it the residence of another concubine?

However, how could another concubine kill this maid so much? Could it be that this lady did something that did not see the light of day before to make another concubine so cruel to her maid? ……

There were different opinions, but the suspicious eyes of those people all fell on Ling Ran's body, which made someone instantly angry, and roared:

"My beloved concubine, it's not your turn to discuss!"

In an instant, the audience was silent, and the few people who had just discussed the most intensely lowered their heads any longer.

Ling Ran looked at the yellow-robed man in front of him, and for the first time a burst of warmth welled up in his heart. But she quickly restrained this emotion again...... He is the emperor, he can also have a harem of three thousand, countless beauties, and the favor she has obtained now is just earned by the previous owner of this body, she has lost her Xian'er, and she is about to have nothing, the only thing she can keep is her own heart.

"Ruohe, give this palace maid a credit, and double the next month." With that, he turned and left, leaving only a handsome back, and countless guards followed neatly after him.

As soon as Chu Yijun left, the eyes of the maids fell back on Ling Ran again, only this time, it was more envy and jealousy.

Early the next morning.

Gyeongin Palace.

"Get out of the way!" Yan Bingbing crossed her hands on her hips and said sharply to the maid in front of her.

"Niangniang, the emperor has a decree, no one in Jingren Palace is allowed to take a step." The maid stopped her with her arms open, but the fearlessness in those eyes made Yan Bingbing angry.

"Smack——! She slapped her in the face, "You palace maid, you dare to stare at this concubine like this?!" ”

really bullied her and was not favored, Yan Bingbing's eyes once again flashed over the mocking smile that Xian'er had given her last night, and her heart was even more angry......

Then he raised his hand again, wanting to fan her face again, but someone grabbed her wrist violently, the strength was so great, the action was so familiar, it made her feel a little cold in the back, she slowly turned her head, and her heart had begun to pray, not him, not him......

But the moment she saw Chu Yijun, her heart was still desolate, like freezing.

Chu Yijun met her gaze, but he smiled coldly, suddenly let go of her, took a step back, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands:

"It's dirty my hands."

Yan Bingbing looked at his movements, and was speechless in a daze, only trembling his lips, as if to say:

"Your Majesty...... The emperor ......" and rolled his eyes suddenly, fell backwards, and fainted.

"Carry her into the small dark room over there, splash water, torture, and force her to find out the truth about last night."

"Yes."

——————

Ling Ran felt that his body had improved a lot.

At least, it won't be as frequent as it was the other day......

And after last night's battle, those subordinates no longer dared to talk about her, and they all treated her respectfully, and rushed to work for her......

Ling Ran couldn't laugh at this, but he also deeply understood the careful thinking of those people, and smiled at their enthusiasm every time.

So much so, in less than two days, the people in the palace spoke very highly of her, and everyone knew that in Changchun Palace, there lived a favored and easy-going master.

These praises quickly reached Chu Yijun's ears.

After listening to Ye Xun's description, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, picked up the bright yellow decree on the case, and rubbed the gold edge on it:

"Looks like it's time to put an end to this."

But he was about to deliver the decree, but a guard suddenly ran into the imperial study and hurriedly said:

"Report - Your Majesty, when I was patrolling this morning, I found that Concubine Yan seemed to have committed suicide in fear of crime, and she was still holding a dagger in her hand before she died."

"Dagger?" Chu Yijun frowned, according to common sense, he would be searched before the execution, how could those people make such a mistake? It seems that there is something strange about this......

He stood up abruptly, "Take me to see it." ”

Gyeongin Palace's small black house.

Several of the guards guarding the dark room knelt tremblingly in front of him.

"Your Majesty, for some reason last night, the little ones smelled a nice smell of flowers, so they all fell asleep while standing...... Wake up, wake up and that's it......"

"And what did you come up with?"

"The lady said that that night it was actually the dead maid who asked her to meet her in the Taiye Pool, and said some very fierce words to provoke her, and she didn't hold it for a while, so she accidentally pushed the maid down the ...... the lake."

"That's it? Anything else? ”

"This lady said she wanted to see you last night, and she has something very important to tell you...... Then I said, it's getting late today, and it's disturbing your rest, so it's better to talk about it tomorrow, and who knows, ......."
