Chapter 50: Veil
Everyone left, Tang Ruyan just breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to go out, when he suddenly felt that someone was walking towards here, if he didn't guess wrong-
His body flashed, and he changed his place to hide. Reaching out and taking out a pill from her waist and pinching it in her hand, she looked down at the thing in her hand, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she used to hate those devilish days, but now she found that she was very grateful for those days, if it weren't for those days, today, she would definitely die in this place.
A hidden woman, huh? It's really a bit of an expectation, is there three heads and six arms or seventy-two changes?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a conversation outside.
As soon as Long Zitian came out of the room, he noticed that someone was coming, and naturally guessed who it was, but the moment he saw Lan Xin, he still showed surprise, and hurriedly stepped forward, saluting respectfully, "Long Zitian, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, please say hello to the Emperor and Queen." ”
Lan Xin had a faint smile on her face, and her voice was as gentle as water, "Commander Long, please get up, I heard that Concubine Xiu had an accident here, so I hurried over, how about it?" Concubine Xiu is fine, right? ”
What a great woman. At least two people thought the same thing at the same time.
The dragon is tilting, the dragon is tilting! Tang Ruyan repeated the name, feeling very familiar, but he still couldn't think of anything else, he was the commander of the Praetorian Guard at such a young age, and he was really a hero.
"Please forgive the emperor and queen, she is a step too late, Concubine Xiu Niangniang, she has no power to return to the sky, and no trace of the assassin has been found." Long Zi poured out the truth.
Lan Xin looked at Long Zitian, a pair of eyes full of shrewdness, "Commander Long, please get up, since Concubine Xiu is dead, it is useless for this palace to blame you, but Commander Long is the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and the matter of the assassin must be explained, and Concubine Xiu must not be unjustly killed, otherwise if this matter spreads, I can't even catch an assassin in the Southern Capital Kingdom, wouldn't it make people laugh?" ”
"Yes, I know that I will do my best to arrest the Assassin." The dragon is duty-bound.
Lan Xin looked at him, a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes, and it was gone in a blink of an eye, "Go in the palace and take a look." He walked towards the room with light steps.
Tang Ruyan suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and continued to hold her breath and concentrate, what kind of world she hadn't seen, but an old fox, what was so terrible? Although Lan Xin tried her best to hide it, Tang Ruyan still noticed the difference from the sound of her walking, this person not only knew martial arts, but was also a master.
Long Zitian immediately got up and walked to Lan Xin's side, "The Empress Dowager has a noble status, let's let the lowly position lead the way in front, the assassin has not been caught yet, in case it disturbs the Empress Dowager, the lowly duty cannot afford it." ”
Lan Xin didn't refuse, nodded and motioned for Long Zitian to lead the way in front, and he followed behind with the support of several girls, looking at Long Zitian's back, with an imperceptible smile on his face. It's just a hairy boy, and you still want to play tricks with this palace?
When the group entered the room, Long Zitian behaved generously, and never looked at the place where Tang Ruyan was hiding.
Lan Xin walked around the room as if unintentionally, looked at the furnishings in the room, and sighed lightly. "Concubine Xiu's death is unjust. This is also to blame for this palace, today I was angry and let her come back first, if it weren't for this, she wouldn't have suffered this change, but she only took pity on my grandson, without the care of her own mother. ”
This was intentional, of course. Although she didn't notice anyone in the room, she was sure that her words would fall into the ears of those who cared about it.
"Please mourn the Queen Mother, don't hurt yourself. Life and death have their own destiny, Xiufei Niangniang has her own arrangements in the dark due to this change, and she should do her best to arrest the murderer to sacrifice Xiufei Niangniang's soul in the sky. Long Zi persuaded respectfully.
When the goal is achieved, Lan Xin does not want to stay longer.
"Hey, this palace has lived in this harem for decades, and it has long seen through life, old age, sickness and death, and this palace is also a half-buried person, and the matter of tracking down the assassin will be handed over to the dragon commander, and this palace will find someone to surpass the soul of Concubine Xiu." Lan Xin sighed and walked slowly outside.
Tang Ruyan didn't move, almost, almost she was exposed. When she heard the news about the child, there was a moment when she wanted to rush out desperately and force the woman to tell the whereabouts of the child.
But she immediately understood that this woman had deliberately said it to her, in order to stir it up and expose her. The women in the harem are all like the sea, and a seemingly casual sentence has already been repeatedly scrutinized in their hearts, the winners in such a team are definitely the dragons and phoenixes among people, those women who have no brains - like Concubine Xiu, they don't even know how they died.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother, please go slowly." Long Zitian's attitude was still respectful, but there was no stammering in his tone.
Lan Xin left, Long Zi poured away, and the guards also left the room.
Tang Ruyan came out of the hiding place and began to check in the room, Concubine Xiu's things are really a lot, all kinds of priceless jewelry, rare treasures, but these can't get into Tang Ruyan's eyes, what's the use of people who can't even save their lives? Actually, she wasn't sure, she just wanted to see if she could find a clue from this room.
Concubine Xiu's words had a great impact on her. She thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't fully understand her words, what did she seem to know? knows something that others don't know on the surface, maybe it's because of this that she will be killed!
Obviously, the person who killed the mouth should be Lan Xin.
But how could such a stupid woman have Lan Xin's handle? If she had been a dead person a long time ago, Lan Xin would never let anyone who held her handle in her hand live in this world. So why did she wait until now? Is it just to frame her?
With a mess in his mind, Tang Ruyan gently walked to the side of the bed and groped on the bed, but still found nothing. Sitting on the bed decadently, his hand was inadvertently pressed on the bed, and suddenly, Tang Ruyan turned around and reached out to grope in the place where he was just now. It turns out that there is a secret here.
Tang Ruyan showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, turned the mattress over slightly, and cut the back with a dagger, and a piece of silk cloth slipped off.
A white handkerchief fell into his hand, Tang Ruyan first laid out the mattress, holding the handkerchief, it looked like a very ordinary handkerchief, embroidered with a blooming epiphany, the embroidery is exquisite, the epiphany is lifelike, and there are two lines of beautiful italic small characters in the lower right corner.
Epiphany in the dark night, like a beautiful woman in a dream!
Tang Ruyan frowned, and muttered in his heart: The monologue of the dark night is like a beautiful woman in a dream! Like smoke in a dream! A hint of coldness floated up, this veil was originally very ordinary, but it was not unusual to be hidden in such a hidden place.
Thinking of what Concubine Xiu said, Tang Ruyan intuitively felt that this veil must be related to her. Maybe this handkerchief was originally hers, or it was given by the person in Concubine Xiu's mouth.
Who is that man? Tang Ruyan frowned slightly, but he didn't dare to think deeply, he always felt afraid in his heart, as if he thought a little more, something terrible would happen.
That kind of panic from the bottom of her heart, Rao is her, and she doesn't dare to touch it. Stuffing the handkerchief into his pocket, Tang Ruyan continued to check in the room, and found no other useful finds. So I observed the surrounding environment and waited for the dark and night with peace of mind, which was the best cover barrier.
