"I see, thank you, madam." He Angelica lowered his head and said respectfully.

"Where is Li Feng of the East Factory who investigated the case?" Mrs. Ge asked.

"Makeshift torture chambers, or dungeons." He Danggui thought for a while and replied.

"Let's go together."

Mrs. Ge got up and walked in front, followed by He Angelica. On the way, Mrs. Ge hesitated, and finally couldn't help asking: "How do you know that I am an embroiderer?" Even Lou Er didn't know about his mother's identity. ”

He Angelica replied: "One day, I found that the fabric he wore and used was embroidered with 'roses', so I tried to guess it." Mrs. Guan has a good relationship with Master Lu Tan, and the same goes for the Guan family and the Duan family, which corroborates such an idea. In fact, because she couldn't put down Duan Xiaolou's clothes and handkerchief, Duan Xiaolou gave them all to her.

"Smart to smart." After a long while, Mrs. Ge said, "Most of the time it's stupid." He Angelica was a little puzzled when he heard it, who was she talking about? Is her son Duan Xiaolou?

When the two of them came to the temporary torture chamber of the Guan Mansion, a faint bloody smell wafted over from a distance, and the timid or taboo would not dare to go there again. He Angelica said, "I'll go and call Master Li out." Mrs. Ge nodded and stopped.

"Who?" Master Lee, who has a good ear, caught the footsteps of outsiders.

"It's me." He Angelica walked in, and the first thing he saw was a row of ten people hanging on a shelf, their hair covered their faces, and they couldn't even tell whether they were men or women. At first glance there were no wounds, and then the nails were peeled off and covered with slaked lime. It was several black-clothed guards from Dongchang who peeled off the nails of those people, and they were also distributed, and they couldn't even find out which one was Master Li.

This is the temporary paradise of Dongchang. He Angelica frowned imperceptibly, stood at the door and said, "I have something to ask Master Li, I don't know if I can take a step to speak." ”

One of them looked up, the cool breeze poured into the corridor, and his hair spread out, and he was an extremely clear-looking man, about thirty years old, with small, focused eyes, a thin straight nose, and thin lips pursed into a straight line. It looks familiar, and it should have been seen before, but it is not the eunuch He Angelica is looking for. This man is the type with the Adam's apple.

"Get out!"

"You, that's what I'm talking about!" He waved his hand out to pick up He Angelica, and at the same time walked out himself, "This is not where you came from. ”

He Angelica was stunned and said, "I'm looking for Master Li from Dongchang." Who are you? ”

The man in black blocked the door, standing casually with a sense of oppression, his arms clasped to his chest, his eyes staring coldly at the top of He Angelica's head, and called out her name, "He Angelica?" ”

She nodded.

"Master Li from Dongchang is not here, I am the commander of Jinyi Mansion from Wupin, and my surname is Li. Tell me. "That's human.

When it came to Jinyi Mansion, He Angelica recognized this person.

The last time there was an accident in King Yan's mansion, many Jinyi guards went to investigate the case, and there was also this person. will conduct an autopsy, and be as silent as Gao Jue. The maid lotus root had taken a little drug, and he felt it out as soon as he touched the pulse, and he blushed when he touched the lotus root. A few days later, the lotus root came out of the Yanwang Mansion and insisted on asking for redemption. The straight eyes and the red glow on the cheeks are clearly the appearance of the eldest girl with spring.

Later, I heard that the lotus lotus hired a carriage to go to the Jinyiwei stronghold outside Yangzhou City, and never came out again......

"Hey." The other party interrupted He Angelica's memories and asked impatiently, "What's the matter?" ”

He Angelica met the other party's gaze and looked at it twice. The man was stunned, not beware of a woman who dared to look at each other boldly in such a situation, and the eyes were too bright for him to avoid uncomfortably. He Angelica pursed his lips and asked with a smile: "Has the prisoner who stole Xuemeitu been caught?" ”

The man didn't want to answer irrelevant questions from irrelevant people, but the answer came first: "It doesn't matter anymore." ”

"Not important?" He Angelica didn't understand. The small torture room of the Dongchang mixed Jinyi Mansion is still peeling off its nails.

"Master Li took Xue Meitu back to Beijing on a business trip, and I will take over here." The man seemed to understand that He Angelica's curiosity was strong, and he must ask the end before he was willing to rest, so he simply told everything he could say, "I examined the liver of the old lady, and found a poison in it, and ...... The poison found in Prince Yiwen's liver was exactly the same. ”

"Liver." An unpleasant picture comes to mind.

"That kind of poison, we have been looking for more than ten years, is a kind of poison that only remains in the liver. The Holy Lord once decreed that all the murders taken over by the yamen, and the corpses of those who died of poisoning, should be tested for poison by dissecting the liver, looking for the strange poison that killed the prince. I haven't found anything for ten years, but this time I accidentally found it in the Sekifu. It was confirmed that the prince had contact with the Guan government before he became ill. Now, everyone in the Kanfu is suspicious, but you can go. ”

I see!

Combined with the information I heard on the roof last time, it is not difficult to think that the poison in the prince's liver is cold green tea. There are only relevant governments in the whole world, so Jinyiwei has been looking for ten years without results. The cold green itself is non-toxic, and it is only fatal for people who drink it against the body, but Mrs. Guan can alleviate the symptoms when she drinks it, but because of her long-term drinking, there is residual poison left in the liver.

If the old lady died not so noticeably, but "died at the end of her life", it would be fine, but the old lady was not willing to be lonely. Is this called Skynet? The Guan family was very careful when they took the cold green tea out to entertain the guests, and they had to be diagnosed by the doctor to make sure that the physique was suitable for drinking before drinking, just for fear that there would be a second person who died in the same way as the prince. In the end, it was the old lady herself who exposed their secrets.

The factory guards still don't know that the poison is cold and green, and they are still being tortured one by one. Once they have more leads......

"Hey, you go. Leave Sekifu immediately. Lord Li of Jinyi Mansion said.

He Angelica said deliberately: "But the bottle of medicine that Mrs. Guan handed her before she died, and as of yesterday, I was still the most suspicious." Why don't the adults come and check on me? ”

In these days, anything strange can happen. Everyone avoids the factory guards like snakes and scorpions, and they are pestered to ask questions; Outside the slaughterhouse, there is a woman who is as thin as a child shouting, I may have something to do with the death of the emperor's beloved son, come and check me!

Li Roller recognized He Angelica because he had been ordered by the commander of Lord Lu and secretly protected this woman for a period of time. Is it a woman that Lord Lu values...... There is something wrong with the brain. Li Roller thought so.

"My lord? My lord? There are people in it who are willing to confess. A eunuch came out to report, took a look at He Angelica, and asked Li Roller, "Is there anything wrong here?" ”

"No, you go in and take a statement." Li Roller said stiffly.

After the eunuch left, Li Roller said coldly: "The year the prince passed away, you haven't given birth to a girl yet, don't be angry." There's nothing to see here, and I don't want to ask why you have to stay. If you lose your life, count it as your own. ”

"It's nature." He Angelica bent his lips and said, "I haven't heard of counting your fate on someone else's head." "This man-sama who peels off his nails is unexpectedly easy to talk to.

"Stay for one day at most," Li Roller said again, "if the official finds out that you are causing trouble, you will be expelled from the palace immediately." ”

It's true, to make her feel like a leper, and to be forcibly expelled. He Angelica's gaze fell on the belt of the man opposite, and he immediately froze, and his eyes revealed naked longing. Li Roller lowered his head and found that what she was staring at was a bunch of keys on his waist, and he couldn't help frowning: "This is a hundred keys to the inner mansion of the Guan Mansion, and only this official can pass unimpeded." ”

"Actually, I also have a talent for investigating cases," He Angelica said as he stared intently at his key, "just borrow me for a few hours......

“……”

He Angelica, who got the key, went back to find Mrs. Ge, but the other party was still waiting in place. He Angelica said apologetically: "I didn't expect that the matter of Xuemeitu, they will not pursue it, and they don't need the testimony of Master Lu Tan." It's really sorry to let Mrs. come over for a trip. As for condolences to the old lady of the Guan family, I advise you to come back after a while and return to the capital first......"

Mrs. Ge turned around and left, He Angelica was worried that she would not go back to Beijing directly, or that something would happen on the way, and wanted to find someone to send her. Coincidentally, I saw an acquaintance at a glance, who turned out to be a young man from the Feng family, shaking a fan of splashed ink and paper, looking very idle. Strong martial arts, nosy people, and the most suitable bodyguard candidates!

Feng Yang was chanting poems and appreciating flowers, and by the way, he followed He Angelica, and suddenly saw her smiling, waving his hand at him from afar, so he walked over.

"Well, are you free?" He Angelica asked kindly.

Feng Yang nodded. He is still here because He Angelica has not left. Meng Xuan left with the prince, and in exchange, he should also take on some of Meng Xuan's responsibilities. It's just that He Angelica has not been very friendly in the past two days, and he is ambushing in the distance. At this moment, he suddenly greeted him with a smile and a smile, and he was a little flattered.

He Angelica pointed to Mrs. Ge, who had not gone far, looked up at Feng Yang, and pleaded: "Follow her and escort her back to the Hou Mansion in the capital." ”

"But I can't leave you here." Feng Yang was embarrassed and said, "That would break the agreement." You love to cause trouble, and you want to use the key to turn over the antidote to the Gu poison in the Guanfu, and maybe you want to turn over something else...... No, no, if you lose a strand of hair, Meng Xuan will worry about me when he comes back. "Don't look at him as lazy and slack, he knows everything.

"Go ahead, I can't find a better fit than you." He Angelica insisted.

Feng Yang hesitated, put away the paper fan, knocked lightly on the door of his head, and stepped on Mrs. Ge and walked away.

He Angelica watched them walk away with satisfaction, and clenched the five keys in her hand, if there was no accident, what she wanted to find was in the study, the scripture pavilion or the meditation room. The Guan family is now unable to protect themselves, and it is too late to deal with the Jinyi guards, and it is the time when the guards are the most lax.

The five keys are all made of stone and are supposed to be used to open stone doors. Stone Gate, Stone Gate...... He pounded on every wall of the study, looking for something like a secret compartment or keyhole. Every study is the go-to place to hide secrets, and there must be secrets waiting to be unearthed......

"Squeak-"

Before He Angelica could find the keyhole, let alone any stone door, the stone door hidden in the wall opened by itself, and a person came out of it. At the same time, He Angelica was dizzy and fell backwards.
