Chapter 492: Deceiving Yourself
"Really? But if you don't get rid of it for a day, I won't be able to sleep, and you don't need to care about the death of the queen mother, and I, as her only child, will naturally arrest the murderer. ”
Qi Yan's words were obvious enough, it depended on whether Zhong Yihan could understand it, he didn't say anything, just lowered his eyes lonely and turned away.
Before the queen left, he hadn't affectionately called him the queen mother, maybe the fate of mother and son had ended, and this obsession had completely disappeared in his heart.
Late at night, Zhong Yihan went to find Hua Ziming, the two of them sat in the courtyard and drank, Hua Ziming looked at Zhong Yihan, who was overwhelmed, snatched the wine jug in his hand and said: "You drink like this and go back, be careful that your lady doesn't let you in!" ”
"My lady hasn't said anything yet, but you have a lot of opinions." Zhong Yihan looked at him with a playful face, and snatched the wine jug again, Hua Ziming knew that he was now gloomy, and the death of the queen must have hit him very hard.
"Okay, you entered the palace this time to see the queen's last face, the funeral of the harem is being done, and the whole country is sad."
Zhong Yihan smiled bitterly a few times, and instantly looked at him with a sober face and said, "What happened to the queen's death, does it have anything to do with Liu Jieyu?" Hua Ziming's expression suddenly became serious.
"I'll tell you the truth, the food the queen eats is fine, but there is a toxin in her body that slowly spreads, causing her expression to be a little confused that day, so she picked up the hairpin to assassinate Li Guifei, and then the force I used was not heavy, but the queen suddenly vomited blood and died, it was not caused by trauma, maybe she had been poisoned in advance."
Hearing Hua Ziming's answer, Zhong Yihan frowned tightly and said, "Then who will do this?" And who is secretly plotting all this? Hua Ziming stretched out her arms and looked at the night sky in the distance, "What is the woman in this harem thinking in her heart, it is deeper than the water in the sea." ”
"Have you noticed any movements of Liu Jieyu in the past few days?" Zhong Yihan looked at him curiously, he slowly turned his head, "This Liu Jieyu has been snubbed by the emperor, and now the queen is gone, and the ministers asked the emperor to appoint a new queen after a while." ”
"The fact that the queen has just died and made a new queen sounds really cruel." Zhong Yihan said, his face showed a gloomy expression again, Hua Ziming patted him on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Don't think about it so much, this is the rule in the palace, and it is not your backyard mansion." ”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and continued to drink and talk.
Lu Xiyi in the Guogong Mansion couldn't sleep while feeling her stomach and tossing and turning, and she didn't know what was going on today, she always couldn't sleep well, she sat up, and the breeze at the door heard the movement, so she said, "Madam, what's wrong with you?" The young master said, I won't be back tonight. ”
"It's okay, it's just uncomfortable to lie down, I want to sit for a while, Qingfeng, come and talk to me." Lu Xiyi said, I still have to find someone to relieve my boredom, Qingfeng walked in, with a faint smile on his face.
"Madam, you should be happy that you are pregnant with another child this time."
"I'm really not in the mood right now, my eyelids are always jumping and jumping, and I don't know if something is going to happen."
Lu Xiyi's intuition has always been very accurate, unless something really happens, otherwise he would not have such a sensitive intuition, and at this time, a small man came to the door and whispered: "Madam, Master Lu is looking for it." ”
"It's Lord Lu." Qingfeng is used to it, calling Lu Mingde Lord Lu, and when he hears the surname Lu, he naturally knows who it is, it seems that he is indeed an important person to come over at this time.
"Don't let people in yet." Lu Xiyi commanded and got dressed.
"Daddy."
As soon as Lu Xiyi's buttocks touched the bench, he saw Lu Mingde walking in in a hurry, hurriedly helped him aside, and said in a soft voice: "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Xi'er, you must make the decision for your sister!" Lu Mingde said, snorting and tearing up about Lu Ruoling.
After Lu Xiyi heard it, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"What do you say. Dad, my sister is dead? Where was the last person who found her? ”
Lu Xiyi felt strange at this time. asked the reason, Lu Mingde wiped his tears, "When the neighbors inquired, it was said that she walked near the prince's mansion, and then went in, and she didn't see her figure again, it must be that the prince killed her ruthlessly, and then sent her back." ”
Lu Mingde's expression of pain and crying was really distressing. Lu Xiyi slowly calmed down and said: "But I heard that the prince went to the palace early in the morning to mourn the queen's mother, and there should be only Bai Lan left in the prince's mansion." ”
Lu Xiyi vaguely felt that this matter should have nothing to do with Qi Yan, and it was very likely that the woman in Bailan had always held a grudge against Lu Ruoling, so she was brutally killed.
Lu Mingde thought of something, and took out a handkerchief, which was wrapped in the hairpin that killed Lu Ruoling, Lu Xiyi looked at the hairpin, and suddenly understood, he had seen Bai Lan wear this hairpin, and nine times out of ten it was Bai Lan.
She stroked Lu Mingde's shoulder and said, "Dad, don't worry, I must seek justice from her in this matter." ”
This happened. Lu Xiyi didn't sleep well all night, plus Zhong Yihan also arrived at the palace early in the morning to investigate the queen's affairs, he wanted to go to the prince's mansion to arrest people, but he didn't expect Bai Lanyi and the others to know where they went.
After inquiring, Lu Xiyi felt that it was very likely that these people had already received the news, perhaps because they were afraid that she would lead people to find trouble, so they left a long time ago.
Lu Xiyi returned disappointed, Mrs. Zhong brought her a cup of tea, and asked softly, "How is it?" Did you find the crown princess? ”
Lu Xiyi shook his head, his expression flashed a hint of loneliness and said: "How can they find people so quickly, they must have fled without a trace after receiving the news, and my sister's body is still in the yard, cold and cold." ”
When I think of Lu Ruoling's corpse, I will feel my scalp tingle.
Mrs. Zhong stroked her shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, one day the crown princess will come back, I'm afraid that they won't admit it at all." ”
The other party is a person from the Prince's Mansion, and their Guogong Mansion was originally going to move their family to Yangzhou, and if something big or small happens in the capital, it has nothing to do with them.
"But...... Mother. ”
"I know you're thinking about your poor sister, but it's not a mansion anymore, although the name is still hanging, but as soon as we leave, people will go to tea and cool ......"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Zhong's heart was sour, and she actually cried again, and when she saw her like this, even if she had a thousand words, it was difficult to say them.
"Hello, I promise you won't make a big deal about it, but the cause of my sister's death must be explained, and I keep this hatred in my heart."
