"So amazing?" Yuehua was a little dumbfounded: "Isn't it comparable to the immortal technique?" ”

"It's even more powerful than magic, because this kind of kung fu can hurt people invisibly, directly shattering people's internal organs in the air, without knowing it, and dying violently the next day. It is precisely because of this great skill that when the old man Tiangang was sixty years old, he did not find a suitable disciple candidate, for fear of harming the rivers and lakes. ”

"Then according to this, could the assassin be the old man Tiangang?"

Mo Guhan shook his head: "It is rumored that the old man Tiangang has been missing for nearly twenty years, and it is still a mystery whether he is still alive now." ”

Chu Mubai let out a "hmm" and said categorically: "That assassin is clearly a young man, not an old man from Tiangang. ”

"Then did you interrogate what the assassin's intention was to enter the palace? Were there any other flaws left in the fight? ”

Wei Chen asked, when the Imperial Forest Army patrolled to the vicinity of the Guan Dove Palace, a guard discovered the assassin's whereabouts from the shadow of the tree on the ground, and immediately fought at that time, and the assassin did not say a word. Except for the number of martial arts, there are no clues, so the identity of the assassin is not clear. ”

"Near the Sekidoden?" Mo Guhan keenly caught the suspicions.

Chu Mubai nodded: "Wei Chen has repeatedly determined that the place where the assassin was hidden at that time was on a tree not far from Guan Jiu Palace. ”

"What about Lan Jieyu? Was there any movement in the Guan Jiu Hall at that time? What was she doing before the incident? ”

After the assassin left, Weichen ordered the Imperial Guards to knock on the door and ask if they had disturbed Lan Jieyu. Lan Jieyu then ordered someone to open the closed door of the hall, and she seemed to be so frightened that even her face was pale. She should have been in the Guan Dove Hall all the time, and she didn't go out, so Wei Chen didn't dare to commit a crime, and she interrogated more. ”

Mo Guhan frowned and groaned slightly: "This matter shouldn't be accidental, right?" Is it possible that your secret investigation of her was noticed by her comrades, and they came to the palace to report the news......"

Yuehua covered her lips and smiled: "I think that it was Concubine Ling who inadvertently killed the carrier pigeon that they transmitted, and they couldn't deliver the news, so they had to go out in person, and it may not be related to Huai'en." ”

Mo Guhan was noncommittal, and this matter was related to the harem concubines, Chu Mubai did not dare to assert it without permission.

Yuehua filled the two with wine: "The day after tomorrow is the queen mother's birthday, whether this matter has anything to do with Lan Jieyu or not, we will wait for the queen mother's birthday before we make a calculation." Don't make her old man feel uncomfortable. ”

Mo Guhan nodded: "No matter what the assassin wants, starting tomorrow, the palace will strengthen the guard patrol, this time it is a fluke, what if the assassin's target is really you and me?" ”

Mo Guhan's words are not alarmist, especially when the limelight has been tight recently, and the bloody dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, what kind of things can't be done?

Chu Mubai nodded and agreed: "Weichen asked Zijin to entrust friends on the rivers and lakes to inquire about the whereabouts of the old man Tiangang." Since the assassin was using the Heavenly Gang Qi, he must have a relationship with the old man Tiangang. From there, there may be more new discoveries. ”

Mo Guhan nodded: "This old man Tiangang was a martial arts master back then, and it sounds simple. However, what is the identity of this Lan Jieyu, but it is unbelievable to me. ”

Yuehua diligently persuaded the two to hurry up and eat vegetables, and drink on an empty stomach, which would inevitably hurt their stomachs.

"Does the emperor still remember the last time on the Yuan Festival, we joked about the rat marrying a girl, at that time Huaien was excited for a while, talking about their hometown, the rat marrying the girl on the day of the rat gluttony, and then threw it in through the window to see if the newlywed's first child was male or female."

Mo Guhan nodded: "Naturally, I remember that I really ordered a rat dumpling to be steamed in the imperial dining room at that time, but it scared you and threw it away." I also joked that in the future, I will definitely have both children and a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses. ”

When it came to the events at that time, the hearts of the two were full of joy, and it was the time when the love was hazy, and the fragrance was as mellow as a cellar wine, and their faces were red and their hearts beat when they drank it.

Yuehua glanced at him with a smile: "You only care about inquiring about this custom of throwing gluttony, didn't you ask Huai'en, where is this custom?" ”

Mo Guhan slapped his forehead: "Why didn't I think of it?" ”

Yuehua said with a smile: "Don't worry about the emperor, the concubine has already asked the old people in the palace, this is the custom in the area of Huangyang, Shaanxi." ”

"In other words, Lan Jieyu is very likely to be the person there?" Chu Mubai said excitedly.

"Even if you know, what? After all, I still don't know what her identity is and what the purpose of entering the palace is. Yuehua said sadly: "Wangyang is so big, and I don't know her real name and surname, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it can't be traced at all." ”

"If it's just an identity, it's nothing. I asked the eunuch who went to Xinyang to interrogate and interrogate whether he was deceived by someone or who he had benefited from, and he deliberately covered it up. There is no urgency in this matter, investigate slowly, and there will always be clues. Anyway, don't rush it, show clues, and make her alert. ”

The three of them talked about the late night, and Chu Mubai and Mo Guhan were all drunk and slightly drunk, so they left the palace.

On the second day, Yuehua got up and started to talk about the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother tomorrow, and she was very busy. He could only instruct Shui Youdai to visit Huaien in the Guan Dove Palace, to find out the truth and reality, and to send her two mountain ginseng that was shocking.

Came back with nothing. Lan Huaien faced Shui You's temptation, and his answer was like a stream, but he had palpitations and his face was not very good-looking.

At the beginning, because Yuehua was friendly with Huai'en, he didn't try his best to insert his own eyeliner into the Guan Jiu Palace, and he didn't know anything about what happened in the Guan Jiu Hall last night.

It was busy until the afternoon, and Yuehua took a breath and could take care of lunch.

The stewed chicken with spring bamboo shoots, the eight-treasure glutinous rice duck, and the hibiscus open-sided shrimp brought in the imperial dining room were made at noon, and they have been warmed in the cage drawer, changing their taste. However, the two fresh vegetables are just out of the pot, emerald green, and the garlic is ordered, which is relatively light and refreshing.

Yuehua was already hungry, so she ate a few bites of vegetables, and suddenly remembered that the birthday gift she gave to the Queen Mother hadn't been taken care of.

She secretly instructed the people of the Needlework Bureau to make a phoenix robe for the Queen Mother. The old man likes to be bright and lively, and chose the best Liuyun brocade satin, the gold and silver thread is embellished with gems to embroider the pattern of the phoenix in Fei, and the lining is made of the most comfortable, soft and breathable silk satin, after embroidery, the golden light is dazzling, gorgeous and bright.

Yuehua was very satisfied, and handed it over to the people of the Huanyi Bureau to wash and iron carefully, and prepared to present it to the Queen Mother today as a birthday gift.

As soon as I got busy, I forgot about it, and when I asked, the phoenix robe had not been sent to Qingqiu Palace for a long time. Yuehua sent the jade book to the Huanyi Bureau to pick it up in person, and the rest of the dishes were not touched, and it was a pity to lose it, so it was rewarded to the palace people below for a tooth sacrifice.

After a while, Yushu returned, followed by the trembling wife of the Huanyi Bureau.

Yushu turned around and glared at her mother-in-law angrily: "Say it yourself, I don't have the face to make a difference." ”

The mother-in-law stepped forward and knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic: "The old slave deserves to die, he has the orders of the queen, and begs the mother to forgive her sins." ”

There is no need to ask, Yuehua knew in her heart that something was wrong, something must have gone wrong with the phoenix robe.

Yushu blushed with anger, and snorted coldly with his sleeves on the side.

"Say, what about the phoenix robe?"

Before Yuehua opened her mouth to ask, the mother-in-law cried bitterly and begged: "It was the mother-in-law who was negligent and did not discipline the people below, and the phoenix robe was not kept well, and the mother spared her life." ”

Yuehua stood up and asked sharply, "What's going on?" ”

The mother-in-law was frightened, and she didn't dare to raise her head: "Qi Yu Niangniang, after the phoenix robe was washed yesterday, the old slave handed it over to the girl below to smoke incense, and there is a hundred flowers in the bureau that Nanzhao paid tribute to, no need to smoke the cage, just soak it in water for half an hour." And the aroma is rich and long-lasting. The old slave thought that the queen mother didn't like fireworks, and the old slave also wanted to please the mother, so he ordered the girl to soak it in potpourri essence.

Who would have thought that the girl was sloppy, and she actually wrapped her usual handkerchief in it and soaked it in the basin. As a result, the veil faded so badly that it was dyed on the phoenix robe. ”

"What?" Yuehua snorted angrily: "You are so careless about the phoenix robe that this palace presented to the Queen Mother, and you don't take it to heart? ”

The mother-in-law is afraid, this matter is not trivial, the previous dynasty is said to have a needlework bureau in the minions rushed to embroider the dragon robe, because too sleepy, when napping accidentally sprinkled the lamp oil on the dragon robe, the dragon robe burned a hole, it provoked the former emperor Thunder angry, thought that this was an unlucky thing, ordered to behead as many as five or six people.

This phoenix robe is worn by the Queen Mother on her birthday, which is extraordinary, can the Queen easily spare herself?

The mother-in-law walked all the way, her legs trembled, and at this time Yuehua blamed, and she was even more frightened: "The old slave has always been cautious and personally supervised the work, and only this last step is left, so he put his mind at ease and ordered someone to prepare the necessary supplies for ironing." With such an inadvertence, whoever wants to break into the goods below. The old slave has ordered the girl to kneel there and wait for the queen to fall, and the old slave is also derelict in his duties, so he begs the mother to be gracious. ”

The mother-in-law begged, and Yuehua's qi gradually dissipated. No matter how expensive this phoenix robe is, it is just an object. Could it be that they really condemned themselves and cut off their heads?

She sighed lightly and asked angrily, "Is the dyeing terrible?" Is there a remedy? ”

The mother-in-law looked up at her face and said cautiously: "The old slave has already ordered people to clean it in various ways, and it has been tossed for a day yesterday, but it is useless." ”

Yuehua thought, but a handkerchief, it shouldn't be dyed badly: "Present it to the palace to see, if it can be embroidered to cover it." ”

The phoenix robe was brought over together, and the palace people stepped forward, shook off the phoenix robe, and presented it in front of Yuehua. Yuehua squinted and saw that it was the eye-catching part of the placket, mottled with several stains, as if it had been stained by grass.

The phoenix robe was originally crimson, and the large green marks were particularly eye-catching, and there was no way to hide it at all. What's more, if such a gaudy fabric is covered by green silk thread embroidery, it is too silly.

Yuehua stomped her feet in annoyance and regret: "It's a pity how many craftsmen have worked hard for several days." So why does a small handkerchief fade so badly? ”

The mother-in-law whispered: "The mother-in-law thinks that maybe there is a problem with the potpourri essence, otherwise the veil has been watered a hundred and ten times, and it is used old, so it will not be so decolorized." ”

The mother-in-law didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and this sentence somewhat shirked the responsibility made Yuehua's heart move.
