Chapter 110: There is a phoenix to come (middle)

Youwei helped Xiao Fu for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, you must stabilize your position at this time, don't panic." The royal brother is not in Beijing, and you still have to make up your mind about everything. ”

Xiao Fuhou's face changed greatly, and her lips trembled uncontrollably.

Youwei said to the internal official: "What is the situation in Zichen Hall now?" ”

Neiguan said: "The leader of the forbidden army has been alarmed, and now the Zichen Hall is heavily surrounded. ”

Youwei said: "You go down first, and wait for the queen's will." ”

The internal officer hurriedly stepped back.

Xiao Fu Hou said to the palace maid beside her: "You guys, you also step down." ”

After everyone retreated, Xiao Fu grabbed Youwei's hand and said, "This, what can I do about this?" Concubine Li Shu was dedicated by Wu Yueguo, although she usually doesn't like words, and she doesn't like the emperor, but after all, she involves foreign countries. It is said that she is also in a famous family, and she was killed in the palace like this, but I am afraid that it will be very important! ”

Youwei thought to herself, in this way, the queen is still the young girl who followed her sister in Yu Yao's mouth, and the shelf she pretended to be after becoming the queen was dispersed so quickly.

The door of the temple was locked from the inside, and it stands to reason that there was only one possibility of suicide.

But Concubine Li Shufei was hung in the air with her hands tied behind her back, it must not be a suicide, but only someone else's doing.

Who did it? Why did the murderers lock the door of the palace from the inside, and why did they hang the concubine?

By the way, that day's nameless blood book! Could it be that Concubine Li Shufei is asking for help?

While Youwei was thinking about it, Xiao Fu said later: "Now that there is no one around, we don't have to be formal, Sister Yong'an, you save me!" Whether it is the emperor, the emperor or my hard-working sister, they have praised you for your intelligence and cleverness, you teach me what to do? Now only you can help me! ”

Youwei said: "Don't worry, there is such a big thing, you can't publicize it, you have to press it down first." No matter how scared you are, it seems that we still have to go to the Zichen Palace. ”

Xiao Fuhou's eyes were filled with tears, and she said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

Youwei said: "You first tell me carefully, the origin of this Concubine Li Shufei and her temperament on weekdays, and what she likes?" Who do you associate with? ”

Xiao Fu said: "Concubine Li Shu and Concubine Du Guifei entered the palace with their front and back feet. After the emperor ascended the throne, the four seas surrendered, and the world returned to the heart. Wu Yueguo and Qingyuanguo, who were far away in the southeast of the Great Zhou, sent two beauties successively to show their loyalty. The emperor accepted their good intentions, and they were all collected in the harem and given the concubine the honorable position. ”

Youwei said: "Du Guifei came first?" So the concubine who became the head of the four concubines first? ”

Xiao Fu said: "Not bad." However, the later Li Shufei was even more outstanding. The land of Wuyue is rich in beauties, and it is indeed worthy of its reputation. Although the concubine is the head of the four concubines, you look at the cold and deserted in this palace, how can there be any four concubines? If it weren't for my sister's efforts to persuade the emperor to accept a few maids from the submerged mansion when she was alive, I am afraid that it would be even more deserted. The emperor is good at martial arts, and he rarely enters the harem. So no matter whether you are from a noble background or a lowly background, beautiful or plain, they are all just decorations in this Taiwei Palace. Not only did he not see the summons for a few months, but he couldn't even see the emperor's face. ”

Youwei sighed: "They have traveled thousands of miles and left their hometowns to come to Da Zhou, and they end up staying alone in the empty house every day, which is really pitiful. ”

Xiao Fu continued: "Who said it wasn't? Maybe it's sympathy, then Du Guifei and Concubine Li Shufei are quite close, and they can be considered talkable. As for Zhang Jieyu, I don't see any dealings between them. These two concubines from foreign countries must have been taught etiquette a long time ago, and they never spoke much, nor complained, and always kept their duty. Li Shufei is even more so. Although she is beautiful, she has never seen her invite favor in front of the emperor. ”

Youwei said: "It sounds very gentle and pure. But since she came from afar, she has no enemies, she doesn't compete for favor, and she doesn't make enemies, why was she killed for no reason? ”

Xiao Fu said: "If this matter can't be hidden, how can it be known by Wu Yue's people?" When it comes to state affairs, the emperor will definitely blame this palace! ”

Youwei said: "Yes, this matter must be pressed down first, and you must not rush to let Wu Yue get the news before finding out the truth." Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be disaster. ”

Xiao Fu nodded, and then suddenly said in a loud voice: "Come in and talk back!" ”

The official who had just reported the news walked in from outside the temple gate.

Xiao Fu said to him: "You go to the leader of the forbidden army to pass on the edict of the palace, today's Zichen Palace, don't leak out, if you get the news outside, the forbidden army will punish all the people!" ”

The inner official said: "Obey the order." ”

Xiao Fu said: "Arrange a soft sedan chair, and the palace and the eldest princess will immediately drive to Zichen Palace." ”

After a while, two soft sedan chairs carrying Xiao Fu Hou and Youwei arrived at the door of Zichen Palace.

The Zichen Hall was indeed surrounded by the forbidden army.

When everyone saw Xiao Fu and Youwei, they all knelt down and saluted.

They didn't have time to care, and went straight to the door of Concubine Li's bedroom.

Pushing open the door of the palace, I saw that Concubine Li Shu had been rescued by the palace people and lay flat on the bed.

It's just that her body is already stiff, so she still maintains the posture of hanging in the air.

His hands were tied behind his back, and his feet were tied.

The center of the foot is back, and the legs are also bent back.

There were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, he was neatly dressed, there were no external injuries, and he looked like he had died of poisoning. ”

Xiao Fu was already scared out of a cold sweat, unable to speak, standing at the door of the hall and not daring to enter.

Youwei said: "Where is the close palace maid of the lady concubine?" ”

The two little palace maids came out of the crowd, lowered their heads and said, "The slave is here." ”

Youwei said, "Raise your head." ”

The two palace maids raised their heads, and Youwei looked at them carefully for a moment, but she couldn't recognize at all whether it was the palace maid who sent the blood book that day.

Youwei said: "You came from Wuyue with Concubine Shuniang?" ”

A palace maid replied: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, we served Niangniang when we were young, and then followed Niangniang into the palace. ”

Youwei said: "Then you two serve the mother closely on weekdays?" ”

The two little palace maids replied: "Exactly." ”

Youwei said: "What is special about Concubine Niangniang's recent behavior? Or who has the lady seen in the last few days? ”

The two little palace maids looked at each other, and after a while, one of them said: "My mother has been missing her hometown recently, and she has fallen ill. The imperial doctor came to prescribe a few pairs of medicines to recuperate, but it was still not good. My mother lives in a simple house, doesn't like to travel, and rarely goes out when she gets sick. On weekdays, in addition to greeting the queen's mother, only the concubine often comes and goes, and the same is true these days, and there is no difference. ”
