Seeing that Imperial Physician Li had already turned on the complaining mode, Xu Xiangjin knew from experience that staying any longer would only be detrimental to himself, so he hurriedly found a reason to leave.

"Haven't I made progress already? It's only a matter of time before the murderer is found, I see that Imperial Doctor Li is also very busy, and I have to hurry up to investigate, so I won't bother you here, we'll see you next time. ”

When Imperial Physician Li mentioned the murderer just now, Xu Xiangjin suddenly remembered one thing, she didn't have to fight alone, since she was helping Concubine Zhen investigate the murderer, then she would naturally be willing to help her, and when the matter was investigated to this point, she felt that it was necessary to let Concubine Zhen know the progress, so she simply turned around and went to her.

In order to be able to welcome the emperor at any time, the palace door of the other concubines is open at any time, but Concubine Zhen has a closed palace door here, which makes people feel a little depressed.

She settled her mind and secretly prepared herself mentally before she was ready to knock on the door.

It was a young palace maid who opened the door and glanced at her, and she was not very welcome and wanted to close the door, "My mother's mother has been in poor health recently, and it is really inconvenient to see class, this girl should go back." ”

Xu Xiangjin was stunned, she didn't have time to say anything, she quickly stretched out her foot, and stuck on the door, asking her not to close the door.

"This sister, don't worry, listen to me first, I'm not here to find fault, I'm here because of Concubine Zhen's child, and I feel the need to tell her some truths."

The palace maid paused for a moment, directly let go of the hand that was about to close the door, and saluted her, and the attitude just now was like two people.

"I'll go and inform my mother immediately, please wait a while, there is something I may want to trouble this adult, my mother has been in a bad mood recently. Please be tactful when you speak, and don't irritate her. ”

Yes, even the name has been changed, and sure enough, the people here are snobbish enough.

Of course, the little palace maid ran out to welcome her in after a while, and Xu Xiangjin knew that her name was Yan'er, and it was the first time she saw the legendary Concubine Zhen.

It seems that she has been having a bad time in the past few days, and her whole person looks extremely weak, as if she will fall down at any time.

"Niangniang, introduce yourself, my name is Xu Xiangjin, you must have heard of me, now I am in charge of investigating your child's affairs, so far I have some eyebrows, I think you should have the right to know, I am short of some decisive evidence now, I think you are suitable to provide me with some useful information."

Concubine Zhen asked Yan'er to serve Xu Xiangjin tea, coughed twice in a low voice, and then spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice.

"If you ask me anything, I will definitely know everything and say everything, as long as I can catch the murderer who hurt my child, it doesn't matter what price I pay."

Xu Xiangjin is not a person who takes advantage of the fire to rob, so naturally she doesn't need to pay any price, she feels that this concubine may have some misunderstanding about herself.

"Concubine Zhen, this is my duty, not only for yourself, but also for the task assigned to me."

She directly cleared up the relationship, so that Concubine Zhen had no worries.

Maybe Concubine Zhen also realized that her state was too bad, so she asked Yan'er to take out the rouge in the room for her, trying to make her face more complex.

As soon as the box of Rouge was opened, Xu Xiangjin seemed to be consciously attracted to attention, and suddenly snatched Rouge from her hand as if she had thought of something.

How did she forget, even in ancient times, the women of this harem still wore makeup, in fact, the person who poisoned the poison could put the poison in the cosmetics, and no matter how bad it was, put some spices in the cosmetics that would attract butterflies, which can also understand why Concubine Zhen went to join in the fun later, and there will still be butterflies around her.

"Niangniang, can I take the liberty of asking, where did you get this rouge from?"

Concubine Zhen glanced at Yan'er with some confusion, "There shouldn't be any problems with this rouge, I've been using it for the past two days, and I don't feel anything at all." ”

"I don't think the rouge has been used much, it must have been newly delivered, and the mother still told me where this rouge came from, if there is a problem, I will have a decision in my heart."

Xu Xiangjin may look too serious now, not to mention that for Concubine Zhen, she has nothing to hide.

"This was given to me by the queen mother a few days ago, and when I debuted, I had already secretly asked the imperial doctor to check it, and there was nothing harmful to the child, so I could use it with confidence."

Xu Xiangjin smelled the smell of rouge, and he really couldn't smell anything abnormal, but this didn't mean that there was no problem with rouge.

"Please help me do an experiment, apply rouge and go to the garden for a walk, don't worry, it won't do you any harm."

Xu Xiangjin also specially picked a place where butterflies are infested, but she was disappointed to find that these butterflies didn't seem to have any reaction to the taste of rouge, could it be that she was wrong, maybe the taste that attracted butterflies would be placed somewhere else, after all, this is conclusive evidence, how could the murderer be so careless and let her be so easy to find!

"It seems that there is no problem with this rouge, trouble Niangniang, I still have something to be busy with, if there is any need, I will come to Niangniang again, and ask Niangniang to take care of her body these days, after all, only when you are in good health can you raise your spirit and take revenge, isn't it?"

Anyway, she had a good impression of this Concubine Zhen, even if it was to help Zhan Qing relieve his guilt a little, she still had to give Concubine Zhen some advice.

Since there is no problem with Concubine Zhen's cosmetics, maybe the problem lies with the other concubines, Xu Xiangjin simply used the right given to her by Zhan Qing to gather all the concubines who had been to the butterfly conference that day, and then asked Imperial Doctor Li to help investigate together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this time I may have to overstep, but it is a task assigned to me by His Majesty, I naturally have to do my best, if any lady is particularly cooperative, I will naturally feel that she is not suspicious, and I will naturally mention this to Your Majesty when I go back?"

If you fight a snake, you have to hit seven inches, these ladies and concubines or something, there is no shortage of food and drink, the only thing that is lacking is that there are men, but the only thing they can get close to in this palace is the emperor, Xu Xiangjin apologized to Zhan Qing in his heart, and for the sake of evidence, he could only wronged him to use him first.

"But we are all staying in our own palaces, what does it matter to us if something happens to Concubine Zhen's child, is it possible that you are doubting us, we are His Majesty's concubines, where did you come from to be so qualified to treat us like this?"

"That's enough." Xu Xiangjin took out the token and weighed it in his hand, although the concubine who had just spoken did not dare to speak again.

"I don't want to suspect you mothers, it's just that such a big thing happened in the palace, everyone can't get off the suspicion, and a few days ago I have found out that Concubine Zhen is contaminated with the snake venom brought by butterflies, so she will have a miscarriage, and all of you have participated in the butterfly conference, I naturally need to conduct a routine investigation, if you cooperate with the mothers, we will end it very early, if you really don't cooperate, I can only let Your Majesty come in person."

Isn't it just a threat, who wouldn't!

Originally, because she was interrogated like a prisoner, she was indignant and wanted to teach Xu Xiangjin a lesson, but she had already said this, after all, no one wanted to make the emperor hate, and they were all silent, even if they were dissatisfied, they could only hold back.

Concubine Ling stood at the back of the crowd, and when she heard Xu Xiangjin say those words, she didn't control her expression for a while, and suddenly raised her head to look at her in surprise, but fortunately she realized her gaffe in time, and quickly regained her composure, and then pretended to look at Xu Xiangjin as if nothing happened, and only after making sure that she didn't find her abnormality, she was slightly relieved.

She originally thought that she had done enough secrecy, but she didn't expect that she could find out even butterflies, it seemed that she really underestimated her before, but fortunately, after the incident, she had recovered all the butterflies in question, so that even if Xu Xiangjin went to find it, she would not be able to find evidence from her.

Let so many concubines in front of him like children who admit their mistakes, Xu Xiangjin felt that the pressure was really a lot, so he asked them all to move stools over, and he found an inconspicuous place to sit first.

"Since we want to investigate the matter, we naturally have to get all the people together, I have already informed the queen mother, and Your Majesty has allowed her to come out temporarily, presumably she can come over in a while, we will sit here and wait for a while."

These concubines thought that the reason why the queen didn't come was because Xu Xiangjin bullied the soft and was afraid of the hard, and didn't dare to invite her over, but now they know that she really went, which even the queen had to abide by, it seems that this woman named Xu Xiangjin is really not easy to mess with.

"Miss Xu, this is such a big shelf, this is not famous in the harem, dare to treat me like this, aren't you afraid that you will never be able to step into this harem in the future?"

Before the queen appeared, the voice arrived first, and the concubines who were originally sitting and whispering quickly stood up, and Xu Xiangjin also followed to greet them.

"Where the queen said, I'm just doing things for the emperor, where do I dare to offend all the mothers, as for the future, no one can be sure, now naturally there is no need to worry about uncertain things."

Xu Xiangjin has already sacrificed to the emperor, even if the queen has more dissatisfaction, she can only be honest and obedient.

The people finally arrived, Xu Xiangjin ordered the palace maid to close the door, and let all the subordinates go out, after all, there are too many secrets of these ladies, if it is passed out, these harem women will go crazy, and her life will not be guaranteed.
