Chapter 353: Suddenly Appearing Lotus Picking

No longer looking at Wei Huai's extremely tragic corpse, with a "hum" that was not light or heavy, Su Yunshu stood up, brushed his sleeves casually, looked at the bloodstains, walked a few steps forward, and came to another corpse.

The tattered palace maid's costume, her slender figure, her body was covered with scars, and the dark red blood coagulated on the wounds.

Looking at such a familiar appearance, as if he had thought of something, Su Yunshu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

A bony hand stretched out, and gentle spiritual power turned the corpse over, revealing a blood-stained face.

After looking at it carefully for a moment, Junlang's brows furrowed slightly, Su Yunshu's slender fingers trembled, and his hands slowly tightened.

Sensing the movement here, Nan Shiyan approached, turned his head slightly sideways to look, his eyes fell on Su Yunshu's gloomy face, glanced at the woman lightly, and asked softly:

"The third prince knows this woman?"

"Her name is Caihe, and she is the palace maid of Fengluan Palace."

Su Yunshu nodded, paused, took a deep breath, and continued: "It was sent by the queen mother to take care of Xiao Ran. ”

"Lotus?"

Gong Linggui's voice full of doubts came, and then, there was a slight sound in his ears, and a slender figure came to his side.

"Yes."

Su Yunshu nodded and spoke slowly, suppressing his deep emotions in his deep voice:

"Xiao Hua and I originally wanted to stay in the Wind Lotus Hall to take care of Xiao Ran, but Cai He said that the queen sent her to take care of Xiao Ran and insisted that I go back to the main hall with Xiao Hua."

Hearing this, Gong Ling squatted down suddenly, his spiritual power was running, he brushed away the hair on the side of the corpse's face, narrowed his eyes slightly, and carefully looked at the bloodstained face for a moment, and his brows furrowed a little tighter.

Seeing this, Su Yunshu's heart jumped, and his deep voice carried an obvious sense of nervousness.

"How? Any questions? ”

Retracting his spiritual power, Gong Linggui shook his head and said lightly: "This is indeed Caihe, this king has seen her." ”

"But"

After a pause, Gong Linggui looked at Su Yunshu, his eyes moved, he sighed, and his voice slowed down a little.

"This lotus picking is not the palace maid of Fengluan Palace."

"Isn't it the palace maid of Fengluan Palace?"

Su Yunshu exclaimed, frowning slightly, and his voice rose a little.

"You mean, Caihe is not the queen's mother?"

"That's right."

Gong Linggui nodded, glanced at Na Caihe, and continued to speak:

"Caihe was originally an ordinary palace maid in Concubine Wan's palace, but later because she exposed some conspiracies of the palace maids who originally took care of Concubine Wan, she became one of Concubine Wan's personal palace maids, and won the trust and favor of Concubine Wan."

"It's just that after Concubine Wan was imprisoned in the cold palace, everyone never saw her again."

"Concubine Wan"

Mo muttered softly a few times, and looked up at Gong Linggui, his voice with obvious doubt.

"That concubine Niangniang, but the biological mother of the little princess?"

"Exactly."

Gong Linggui nodded, his voice cold.

"Concubine Wan Niangniang is the biological mother of the little princess Gong Lingyu."

Mo Qing frowned and asked, "Then where is that Concubine Wan Niangniang now?" ”

glanced at Mo lightly, Gong Linggui's face remained unchanged, and replied: "Concubine Wan, now, she is still in the cold palace." ”

Mo Qing let out a thoughtful "um", and didn't specifically ask why Concubine Wan was sent to the cold palace, but just opened her mouth casually.

"Since this lotus picking disappeared from people's sight after Concubine Wan Niangniang was beaten into the cold palace, then King Jing knows that in this Eastern Dynasty palace, the concubines who were beaten into the cold palace, where will the original palace people in her palace be sent?"

After thinking for a moment, Gong Linggui slowly spoke: "Some were assigned to the Internal Affairs Office or the Imperial Dining Room to do some rough work, and some were sent to the Huanyi Bureau to be the lowest-level laundry palace maids. ”

"So"

Su Yunshu paused, muttered a little, and said slowly: "Where are the original palace people of Concubine Wan Niangniang now?" ”

"The palace people in Concubine Wanniang's palace didn't have any arrangements originally, so they still stayed in Concubine Wan's palace and guarded an empty hall."

As if thinking of something, Gong Linggui's gaze moved suddenly, and his voice rose a little.

"It's just that some time ago, because those palace people offended the queen mother, most of them were executed by His Majesty."

"At that time, because many people interceded for Caihe, the queen thanked Caihe for taking care of Concubine Wan for a long time, and she had always done her best, so she also pleaded with His Majesty, let Caihe and some other palace people go, and did not continue to investigate."

"It's just that after that, everyone has never seen Cai He again, and it is said that he was expelled from the palace."

As he spoke, Gong Linggui lowered his eyes, his gaze swept over the bloodstained face, and said lightly: "I really didn't expect that when I saw Caihe again, it would be here." ”

"Since this Caihe is the person of Concubine Wan, why does she claim to be the person of the queen's mother?"

Su Yunshu frowned, and his voice became deeper and lower.

"Moreover, why did she appear in the Wind Lotus Palace?"

The slender big hand touched his chin, his brows furrowed, and a deep thought appeared on his face, and Mo muttered a little softly, and slowly spoke.

"It seems that this matter is getting more and more complicated."

Gong Linggui let out a faint "um", then stood up, flicked his sleeves slightly, and his eyes swept over the other things in the dormitory, with a deep sense of inquiry.

"At that time, Caihe's unprovoked disappearance was already very strange, but Caihe was just a small palace maid, so everyone didn't pay much attention to it, and they didn't track it down carefully."

"However, put this aside in advance, it is important to find Xiao Dye first."

Mo replied with a "yes" and stood up as well, walking to the other side.

At this time, Nan Shiyan, who had been silent, frowned suddenly, his face suddenly condensed, and he shot extremely quickly, but in an instant, the sharp spiritual power had already flown out.

A slight muffled grunt was heard, followed by a crisp sound of landing.

Everyone came to their senses and looked out of the broken beaded curtain.

The Great Elder covered his right arm, his face was slightly gloomy, red blood flowed from between his fingers, and the long sword lay quietly at his feet, stained with a little blood.

Quietly closing his sleeves, Gong Linggui stood still not far from the Great Elder, and gathered all the emotions on his face, as if he was opening his mouth in doubt.

"Great Elder?"

Hearing this, the withered finger tapped the bloody right arm a few times, and the great elder leaned over, picked up the long sword, saluted Gong Linggui and the others, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Old minister, I've seen King Jing, I've seen King Sheng, I've seen Gongzi Yan, and I've seen the third son."

"No need to be polite."

Gong Linggui raised his hand, and gentle spiritual power poured out, helping the Great Elder to bend down slightly, and his voice was a little gentle.

"Great Elder, this is"

Looking at the bloodstained right arm, Gong Linggui couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but his face remained unchanged, still with a cold appearance.

"Great Elder, injured?"
