The morning sun rises and dispelles the morning mist. The grass outside the post house was covered with night dewdrops, like pearls of jade. Hanging on the tip of the grass, it is crystal clear, reflecting the gorgeous morning glow.

The summer dawn was still early, and the first rays of light were revealed.

When the first rays of sunlight came through the cracks in the windows, Joan of Arc stood up. Li Jianzhi took the palace maids who served in front of the emperor to step forward, put on shoes for Emperor Zhende, and put on a middle shirt.

Emperor Joan of Arc looked down at the beads on the palace maid's head and trembled: "Did you send the things away?" ”

"Sent away." Li Jianzhi bent his waist beside him and replied respectfully: "The general is already waiting outside the door." ”

"Why so early." Emperor Joan of Arc muttered, bent down and stepped on his other shoe, and waved his hand to the palace lady who was serving next to him: "All stand down." Let him in. ”

"Yes." Li Jianzhi responded and walked out with the palace ladies. Not really.

Emperor Joan of Arc heard footsteps outside. He straightened his neckline and glanced up at Si Mu in armor. Just like yesterday before leaving. Emperor Zhende knew that Si Mu had not rested this night, and when he spoke again, his tone was much softer: "How is the investigation?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the words of the interrogation are all here." Si Mu said, took out a silk silk from his sleeve, and handed it to Emperor Joan of Arc.

Emperor Joan of Arc put on his shoes, took the silk silk handed by Si Mu, and unfolded it to look at it for a long time. Then he put it down and looked up at Si Mu: "She knows how to witch?" ”

"Yes." Compared with Wen Qingwu's silence and hesitation, Si Mu replied very simply: "Listen to her, she used to read witch books when she was a child, and she didn't know if she wouldn't know, but she did understand a little."

On that day, Qin Andao's body was dragged up, and Wen Cairen was playing chess with the crown princess. So they went to the deck together. ”

Emperor Zhende naturally knew about the autopsy of the crown princess Su Jinli: "The streamer actually brought that mallet?" Emperor Joan of Arc was puzzled: "What did she take her for?" ”

Si Mu frowned imperceptibly when he heard this: "I don't know."

But I think it was just the crown princess who brought it casually. ”

Emperor Joan of Arc didn't speak, and after a while, he looked at the silk silk in his hand again and asked, "Did you ask her what she saw that day?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Wen Cairen said that when she followed the crown princess to see the body that day, she knew that Qin Andao was a witch." Si Mu said. The rest is written on the silk silk.

Emperor Joan of Arc threw the silk silk in his hand on the bed: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?" "Since I checked the body with the crown princess, I saw something strange and said it. It caused them to go around and check for a long time.

"If, Wen Cairen reported to the emperor that day, would the emperor believe it?" Si Mu asked in a low voice.

Emperor Joan of Arc was stunned, and then raised his eyes and glanced at Si Mu: "You think too much." "I don't believe it or not, but he will definitely take it to heart and let people check it out. It's just that he won't let Wen Qingwu go in that case.

"That's it." Emperor Joan of Arc got up and began to fasten the buttons on the placket: "Arrange for her to go back from me." Yesterday's events are all sealed. As he spoke, he added: "Let her save some heart for me, and don't hang around outside all day." If I do anything more, I'll skin her. ”

"Yes." Si Mu's face was still the same, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The emperor let Wen Qingwu go, at least it shows that in his opinion, Wen Qingwu still has a certain use.

Looking at Si Mu, who had withdrawn, Emperor Joan of Arc tilted his head and looked at the closed window. Sharp eyes. There are only a handful of witches in Kyoto.

Either way, keep it for now.

Gao Qinqin sat in the middle of the house, pushed open the carved window, and looked at the rising sun outside the house with a demure and satisfied expression. The morning glow spreads everywhere, and the orange-red sky looks like long satin dyed with color. A red sun is rising, like the half-cooked egg yolk, red.

Gao Qinqin felt that this round of egg yolk like the rising sun was like herself. At last, the clouds and the sun were cleared, and the sky was lit up at dawn, and those unsightly and filthy things, what ghosts and ghosts, all dissipated in their own light!

This charm naturally refers to Wen Qingwu, a thing with sores on the top of his head and rotten soles on his feet.

Gao Qinqin closed her eyes, hooked the corners of her mouth with a shallow smile, and thought in her heart that when she returned to Haojing, how would Wen Qingwu's largest and brightest room in the Dafu Palace be placed? caught Wen Qingwu this time, she set up a big palace, and the emperor would not be reluctant to give even a room.

I thought of the eunuch beside Wen Qingwu who didn't eat oil and salt, and the willow leaf that bit his little hoof, how to humiliate him.

I'm definitely going to prison. Adultery by palace concubines is a big crime, and these serving slaves and maids unknowingly should be killed with a rod according to the palace rules.

But before she was killed, she had to teach the two of them a lesson.

"Talented, it's time to wash."

Gao Qinqin was still silently thinking in her heart, and she heard Chun Niang's voice. She opened her eyes and looked at Chun Niang who pushed the door in, holding a copper basin in her hand, and a towel was placed on the edge of the basin.

Chun Niang walked to the washing shelf by the window with the copper basin, put the copper basin, and took half a step back to look at Gao Qinqin.

Gao Qinqin had no intention of embarrassing Chunniang, and got up and saw the clothes on her body again. It was very late last night, and she was detained and interrogated by Li Ji, the secretary of the Ministry of War, for half a day before coming back. When I returned, it was already dawn. It's just that I haven't slept all night. I haven't even had time to change my clothes that were soiled overnight.

Thinking of this, Gao Qinqin felt tired all over her body.

"When do the fathers-in-law outside say they will leave?" She took the handkerchief handed by Chun Niang, and looked at the waiters who came and went downstairs outside the window.

I saw a group of chamberlains hurrying down with a simple chariot, and there seemed to be a man lying on the wooden board, who was covered with a dragon-patterned brocade quilt, and his whole body was covered, and his head and face were not exposed.

At this hour, many concubines and casual princes and princesses have not yet gotten up, and it seems that the person who is lifted above should be the concubine who was summoned to sleep last night.

Gao Qinqin couldn't help frowning and thinking: "In such a scene last night, when I turned around, the emperor actually recruited someone to sleep again?" ”

"I don't know which family's mother it is, and she was recruited by the emperor to sleep on the first day she left the palace." Chun Niang stood aside, looked under the window with Gao Qinqin's gaze, and spoke enviously.

It would be nice if it was your own talent. These slaves and maidservants all rise and fall with their masters. Only when the master is favored, can they also follow the rising tide.

Gao Qinqin didn't have time to pay attention to the envy in Chunniang's tone, threw the handkerchief in her hand into the water, turned around and hurried to the door. I opened the door and watched as I was being carried downstairs into the lobby.

She watched intently as the chariot was carried upstairs, and then looked at the chariot placed at the door next to her, and the door opened, and out of it came Yanagiha and Ruyoshi. The waiter lifted the brocade quilt with dragon patterns, and the extremely pale face was reflected in Gao Qinqin's eyes, making her petrify in place.
