Chapter 88: The cause of death is suspicious
The knock on the door came regularly, accompanied by Ande's deliberately lowered voice: "Your Majesty, it's time for the court." ”
Cang Linchen frowned, turned his head to look at Yin Huan beside him, and saw that she was unaffected, still sleeping sweetly, and her eyes unconsciously overflowed with a touch of pampering.
Ander waited for a while and didn't hear any movement from inside, swallowed his saliva, and after several hesitations, crawled to the door, raised his volume slightly, and shouted softly inside: "Your Majesty? Your Majesty, the ......"
Before he finished speaking, the door creaked open, and Cang Rinchen's slightly hoarse voice sounded: "Shut up." ”
Ander was startled, almost fell into a dog eating, hurriedly knelt down, didn't dare to speak, just kept kowtowing, and after kowtowing for a long time, he didn't see the squeak of the dust, and couldn't help but quietly raise the corner of his eyes to peek, except for the closed door, there was no one else in front of him. I couldn't help but be stunned at the door for a while.
When Yin Huan woke up, it was almost noon, a little stunned and wanted to sit up, raised his arm but found that his whole body was sore, and he inadvertently looked down to see his full body marks, and his mind was half awake in an instant, and he remembered the indulgence of last night, and gently turned his sore arm, Yin Huan couldn't help but secretly curse, Cang Linchen has been staying in the East Palace every night for the past few days, except for political affairs, she has never left half a step, and she has not been able to leave the palace for a few days.
After Cang Linchen left, Ande was waiting outside the house, and didn't dare to go in to disturb, it was noon, and he heard movement in the house, and asked busily: "Niangniang is awake?" The slave is called to pass the food. ”
"Hmm."
While eating, Yin Huan suddenly remembered something, looked at Ande, and asked in a deep voice, "Will Concubine Wan's body be sent back to her hometown for burial today?" "Count the days, it has been a month since Concubine Wan's accident to the present, and she should have been buried in the ground a long time ago, but Concubine Wan's father is the younger brother of Concubine Yu Gui, Concubine Wan died in vain, Concubine Yu Gui said that she would not stop there, and the matter dragged on until now.
"Huh?" Ander was slightly stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously, "Yes, Niangniang wants to go and see?" ”
Yin Huan nodded nonchalantly.
"Niangniang, Concubine Wan has always been Concubine Yu's person, this time she had an accident, the relationship between the Queen Mother and Concubine Yu Gui has also become delicate, you and the Queen Mother have just eased up, there is no need to offend the Queen Mother because of a person who is already dead." Ender's respectful exhortation.
Yin Huan looked at Ande, a little puzzled, when it came to the personnel relationship in the palace, Ande naturally knew more than him, so he turned his head to look at Ande, and didn't speak, "That's the case, Niangniang, Concubine Yu Gui is the mother of Prince Rui, and this noble concubine was also very proud in the harem in the early years." Until the emperor ascended the throne and everything was a foregone conclusion, Concubine Yu Gui was convenient for the harem to dispatch the day. Concubine Wan was able to enter the palace, which was also the introduction of Concubine Yu Gui. In fact, very few people know about it, because ......"
When Ander said this, he looked around a little nervously, and then said softly: "Concubine Wan's father was demoted to a commoner because of corruption and bribery in his early years, and Concubine Wan was able to enter the palace because of Concubine Yu's many visits, but it was never the climate, and she was not reused by Concubine Yu. But after all, she did die unexplained, how can the master in this harem not have an explanation? In addition, the Queen Mother once owed Yu Guifei a favor, and over the years, Yu Guifei's monthly routine and various expenses have been the same as the Queen Mother. ”
Yin Huan looked at Ande quietly, waiting for his next words, knowing that this guy has always had many ears and eyes, and the method of transmitting news between palace people is much faster than checking it herself.
"But these things are just speculations by the minions, and the minions dare not say it without real evidence." As soon as Ande finished speaking, he looked at Yin Huan's cold eyes, his eyes were sharp, and he couldn't help shrinking, "Niangniang, there is really no real evidence for this matter, I don't know where the news came from, saying that the emperor is actually the biological son of Concubine Yu Gui, the queen mother was still the queen back then, and she has not come out for many years, in order to keep the queen's position, she will be combined with Concubine Yu at that time." ”
Yin Huan calmed her eyes and gently put down the dishes and chopsticks, these methods in the harem, she naturally understood, Concubine Yu in order to seek the upper position, the queen mother in order to protect the queen position, the two of them combined, and used Cang Rinchen to rise step by step, this matter, since it has spread in the palace, it is impossible that Cang Rinchen has not heard of it at all? Xiu Mei frowned slightly, and turned her head to look at Ande, "However, it is not necessarily a matter that this corpse has been placed in the palace, and it always has to be sent back for burial." ”
Ander sighed, "It's inevitable, but according to the minion, it won't go too well. ”
Yin Huan shook his somewhat sore arm, and Ande couldn't help but laugh heartily when he looked at it, "The slave should also congratulate Niangniang first, the emperor's love for Niangniang has become deeper and deeper recently." Seeing that the two of you are together, those of us who are slaves are also happy for you. ”
Yin Huan just smiled faintly, "The king has always been kind, don't leave too much hope for yourself, and the day of disappointment will come, life will not be worse than death." Ande didn't understand Yin Huan's words, but at this moment she had already gotten up, "Since you think something will happen, as the queen, it is natural for this palace to appear there, and the queen mother will definitely not object." ”
Ander followed behind Yin Huan. But when he didn't want to pass the imperial garden, Yin Huan suddenly made a mistake, turned a corner, and ran to the back of a bunch of rockeries, Ande was a little surprised, his mouth moved, after all, he didn't say anything, and followed.
"Is Concubine Wan's death really something else? How do you know? ”
"How do I know? If it weren't for the ruthlessness of Concubine Yu Gui there, I really didn't know that Concubine Wan, who had never been eye-catching, was actually the old master's person. Luo Concubine was really unlucky, and she provoked Concubine Wan. The scapegoat of the station...... Don't say it, Concubine Luo, she actually ......."
The voice became lower and lower, Xia Yinhuan raised her eyebrows, her eyes were full of smiles, but she didn't reach the smile in her eyes, and gently waved her hand at Ande behind her, Yin Huan slowed down quietly, leaned over and walked quietly. I listened intently, but I couldn't hear anything.
Kindness? Yin Huan frowned and glanced back at Ender.
Yin Huan walked a long distance and didn't hear the footsteps coming up from behind, so he couldn't help but stop and look back to see what was going on.
Hehe, Yin Huan shook her head lightly, thought about it, didn't speak, turned around and walked back, now this Wanxian Palace, don't go, although she didn't see what the two palace maids looked like, but she remembered the voice, no matter what, there was always a clue, however, she went to the Wanfei Palace just for a temporary purpose, if no one can predict the prophet, then who was the director of today's play in the Imperial Garden? What is the motivation?
"Ande, let's go to the Palace of Tranquility immediately."
Yin Huan flicked his sleeves, turned around, and then changed his mind and headed towards the Palace of Tranquility.
In the Anning Palace, there was already tension between the Queen Mother and Concubine Yu Gui, "Recently, the palace and the palace are not peaceful, as the master of the harem, have you considered the country of Daqing?" It's been a month since such a corpse was left here, and although there is lime to protect it, it is still unlucky. No clues have been found in this case for a long time, and the deceased is gone, so why not let her rest in peace? ”
"The Queen Mother said this lightly, Wan'er is the only bloodline of the concubine's brother, and now she is dead in an unknown way, how can she say that? Before, you obviously said that the suspicious person was the queen, but in the blink of an eye, you said that there was no evidence, is it really a three-year-old doll when the concubine is a minister? ”
When Yin Huan came in from the palace gate, she happened to hear Concubine Yu Gui say this, she looked at the middle-aged woman standing in front of her, three thousand green silk was still as black as splashing ink, wearing a bright red robe, red, in the palace dress, with her identity is not qualified to wear it, it can be seen that her identity is really not ordinary. And the Queen Mother was speechless for a while when she was aggressive towards her, and when she saw Yin Huan come in, the Queen Mother couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"See the Queen Mother and Concubine Yugui."
Concubine Yu Gui turned around and glanced at Yin Huan coldly, on her flawless facial features, a pair of eyes as clear as a cold pool, willow eyebrows and cherry lips, unmatched. Wearing a Sulan robe and a crescent moon white palace suit inside, he asked in a cold voice, "Who are you?" ”
Yin Huan smiled faintly, "Concubine Xia Yin Huan." Knowing that today's Concubine Yu Gui Niangniang is unwilling to die for Concubine Wan, the concubine is the head of the six palaces, and this matter is unshirkable, and it has nothing to do with the Queen Mother. ”
"Hmph, you're the queen? I heard that since you sat on the back seat, there has been no shortage of things in the harem, and Wan'er's death is not clear......"
"Concubine Yu." Yin Huan interrupted Concubine Yu Gui's words with a faint smile, "In the harem, the concubines only know that they must abide by the palace rules, say less and do less, and try to share the worries of the queen mother and the emperor, rather than making something out of nothing." In a word, there is no lack of reprimanding Concubine Yu Gui for speaking too much. Yin Huan walked around her to the Queen Mother, and bent her knees and blessed her body, "Queen Mother, this matter has indeed been delayed for a long time, and the concubines have inquired many times, but they still haven't been able to find out the real culprit." ”
"I'm afraid, the thief shouts to catch the thief, and the real murderer can only get away with it forever." Concubine Yu Gui looked at Yin Huan coldly, and said mockingly: "The queen has made great contributions many times, and the people are looking forward to it, so naturally someone will cover it up, and the mourning family just feels sad for Wan'er." ”
"Concubine Yu." Yin Huan turned around and looked at her coldly, "If the concubine has a way to find out the real culprit within an hour, I don't know if the concubine Niangniang may promise the concubine one thing?" ”
"An hour? Hahahaha, it's ridiculous, you haven't gained anything for a month, and now, what can you do in an hour? ”
"Whether it can be done or not, the concubine has her own measure, and if the concubine does not believe in her words, please ask the queen mother to punish him heavily. What does the concubine think? She looked at Concubine Yu Gui with a faint smile, advancing and retreating appropriately, but she was protecting the Queen Mother everywhere.
"Yes, sister, since the queen said that she has a way, you might as well give her an extra hour, and there is nothing you and I can do if we continue to argue." The Queen Mother walked in front of Concubine Yu Gui with a smile, "Our two sisters haven't talked for a long time, come, you can chat with the mourning family here, and leave the investigation of the case to the queen." ”
Concubine Yu Gui pondered for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "The mourning family is according to what you two said, if there is no news of the real murderer after an hour, don't blame the mourning family for offending." ”
