After King's Landing saw Mu Qingyan, the two of them walked towards the dungeon with a tacit understanding......

I don't know how long it took.

After Mu Qingyan came out of the dungeon's dissecting room, she said: "After my examination, the symptoms of the dead people inside are somewhat like the upgraded version of Spring Love that you have in the Imperial Palace. This medicine will make people have symptoms of congestion all over the body, and there will be a loss of martial arts and physical strength. However, the corpse obviously did not show signs of detachment, and the muscles of the corpse were tense when they died, which proved that the deceased had strength before death and was not an ordinary intensity exercise. ”

Hearing this, a gleam flashed in King's Landing's eyes.

"Are you trying to say that before Zhang Qing found him, someone was chasing him, but Zhang Qing just happened to appear and was mistaken for a pursuer. ”

Mu Qingyan nodded, paused for a moment, and was silent for a while before continuing: "That person died, and the final result should be those medicinal properties in the body that were not soothed, and the muscles and veins were broken, and the body was full of blood congestion......

The voice fell, looking at King's Landing's eyes a little more worried, if it was, at that time, Mu Rin didn't go back in time, or Zhang Heng didn't go over in time to send King's Landing back to the Four Kings' Mansion......

And if King's Landing insists on not complying, the consequences can be imagined how appalling!

King's Landing gently hugged Mu Qingyan and whispered in her ear, "This king is different from those people. ”

Mu Qingyan's eyes slowly relaxed, and said: "That thing should be at a specific distance to be effective, too far is definitely not good, then, close range is definitely easy to find." In this way, it is possible that the deceased was poisoned by someone close to him, or someone who might have let his guard down. In particular, a person like him who walks on the tip of a knife must be very sensitive to the changes around him. So, how to get him to inhale gas is even more puzzling. ”

When Zhang Qing found him, he was already very weak and seriously injured, but his mind was not unclear. King's Landing said lightly: "If he is really poisoned, it is really a bit unbelievable that he can escape from the pursuit of the pursuers." ”

After all, he knew very well how domineering the medicinal properties of that medicine were.

The people under Nangong Jin are absolutely impossible to be higher than him in martial arts, and it is difficult to suppress his high martial arts and internal strength.

Even if the medicine is lifted, the body still has some prostration, fatigue, fatigue, not to mention doing strenuous walking for a short time.

That's a very difficult thing to do......

How did this dead man escape?

Mu Qingyan also rubbed her temples and said quietly: "This is also a question that I have always been puzzled about, but unfortunately, you Chunqing did not find the smell, nor did you find the medicinal powder." ”

"Master, is it possible that this person's spring love is just ordinary, and that the master's love is strengthened?" Zhang Qing asked in a deep voice.

When Zhang Heng heard this, his expression also changed a little, and for the first time, he felt that Zhang Qing could speak differently!

At this time, Luan'er also seemed to think of something, and said: "Men are always easy to relax their police weapons in Gentle Township, and the dead person is Nangong Jin's subordinate, and Yihong Courtyard is their nest. So, is it possible that you have encountered a trap in the Gentle Country?"

Zhang Heng didn't know why, he always felt that when Luan'er said this, his eyes were looking at him, and he couldn't help but tighten his neck.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan's pupils constricted slightly, and said: "There is this possibility! This is typical of killing people and killing people, it is estimated that Nangong Jin should also be hunted down and killed now!"

King's Landing's expression changed, his eyes sank, and he asked, "Have you found Nangong Jin's whereabouts?"

When Zhang Heng heard this, he immediately replied: "Back to the master, the secret guard just reported it once, and Nangong Jin's whereabouts seem to have disappeared, and he hasn't found it yet." ”

"Also, Ye Xun drugged you that day, and it was the queen who let her enter the palace. Why, Ye Xun said goodbye without saying goodbye, but the queen is like a person who has nothing to do? Ye Xun has completely disappeared now, and the queen of the Guozhang Mansion has not moved at all, as if it is a matter of course. The matter of the imperial palace has arrested so many palace people, even if you deliberately suppressed the news, but, as the queen, how could you not know? How could you not ask Ye Xun if it mattered...... Their reaction is also too abnormal!" Mu Qingyan heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Can it be said that they are deliberately pretending not to know and avoiding the problem? ”

For such a reaction, Mu Qingyan only felt that they were very strange.

However, all the signs and evidence did not point to them, and the other party used poison invisibly, leaving no traces after using the medicine, and even in the body of the dead person, she did not find any clues, and the symptoms were the same as sudden death.

King's Landing couldn't help but think of the queen's deliberate silence in the palace.

At that time, I thought that the queen just didn't want to deal with the marriage between Jun Qingzhen and Mu Rin, after all, Jun Qingzhen was really tied to Mu Rin. Such a force is quite stressful on the crown prince Junyuan, and for the marriage of Jun Qingzhen and Mu Rin, she will not participate in or interfere, and the queen's attitude is right.

It's just that Ye Xun was called into the palace by the queen, and at that time, after the accident, he directly asked Ye Xun to be thrown into the barracks.

The queen didn't seem to be much surprised by Ye Xun's farewell, did she know it a long time ago, or was she afraid of being exposed......

"Zhang Heng, how about this king asking you to check the medicine for spring love in the palace?" This spring love is a commonly used aphrodisiac in the royal family, and it is very easy to get, which is really a very tricky thing.

Zhang Heng bowed his head, took out a note from his arms, and replied in a deep voice: "The subordinates have already given the spring love in the palace to the young master Baili, this is the result of the careful study of the young master Baili, and the medicinal properties of the medicines obtained by the subordinates are written on this." ”

King's Landing glanced at the note and said, "You read it!"

"Yes!" Zhang Heng took the note, looked at it, and said: "Young Master Baili said that the medicines in the palace are all common, and the medicinal properties are only for fun, mainly because they are mixed in water and drunk into the body to have an effect, no, the master was drugged that day." ”

Mu Qingyan looked at the note from beginning to end, and then said, "I want a detailed record of the palace people who were interrogated, and I think I should send someone to the Empress and the Prince's Mansion." ”

When Jun Lin heard this, he also agreed, and said to Zhang Heng on the side: "You go and send someone to check if the queen has any dealings with Ye Lingtian, her whereabouts these days, whether she has often gone anywhere, or who she has been dealing with! Also, Ye Xun's maid and grandmother in the mansion also asked Shao Dong to interrogate, Ye Xun is very close to other people, if there is, these people must focus on checking." ”

Zhang Heng responded and replied respectfully: "Yes, master!"

Looking at Zhang Heng's back as he exited, suddenly, Mu Qingyan opened her mouth and changed the topic.

"Zhang Qing, I heard that you are very familiar with the affairs of the Qinglou?" Mu Qingyan suddenly turned her head to look at Zhang Qing and said, "You tell me what men will do and what they will do in the Qinglou." ”

Zhang Qing cried with a sad face and said, "Princess, it is definitely a rumor, and my subordinates are not familiar with it at all. ”

Mu Qingyan said lightly: "Tell me casually, I can tell you responsibly and I won't punish you." Besides, there can't be a brothel in the capital that you haven't been to. ”

Zhang Qing: "......"

At this moment, I secretly glanced at King's Landing's face, and his face turned green.

"Princess, her subordinates are only on official business, and they have never messed around in the Qinglou. "He was really wronged, and he didn't know from whose mouth the princess knew it, and besides, the master didn't seem to like to hear it.

Mu Qingyan looked at Zhang Qing as if he was about to commit suicide, and asked very reluctantly: "Tell me, when are those men in the Qinglou the easiest to lose their guard?"

"Subordinate......

Say, the master is not happy, don't say, the princess is not happy, the princess is unhappy, the master is even more unhappy......

In the end, Zhang Qingkuo went out and described in detail what he saw in the Qinglou, and the discovery process of finding the dead man, and repeatedly emphasized that he really didn't find a woman in the Qinglou, all of them were just seen.

Zhang Heng was meticulous and cautious, and after receiving the order from King's Landing, he quickly deployed. Then, he took the interrogation file from Jiang Ming, and returned directly to the Four Princes' Mansion and sent it to Mu Qingyan's hands.

Of course, it is also about Zhang Heng being the most powerful guard around the fourth prince, so no one who is not long-sighted dares to get stuck.

It's a pity that there is nothing wrong with staring at the Guozhang Mansion as expected, and the Guozhang Mansion is very calm as before.

Ye Lingtian was also doing what he had to do as before, and the entire Guozhang Mansion was in order, and his face was as usual......

The palace is over, and the queen is even more relaxed about why Ye Xun left without invitation, and said it in a few words......

All the clues seem to have been completely broken all at once, although I want to check, but the time and place are favorable, and they don't have the same ......

It dragged on and on until the end of early spring.

The emperor's health became more and more deteriorating, but he still had to personally preside over the sacrifice of spring ploughing, and then he was dissuaded by the crown prince and civil and military officials.

In the end, the emperor had to comply with the request of the prince and the hundred officials, and let the prince go to the Taimiao on his behalf to sacrifice heaven and earth......

The spring ploughing sacrifice is very important, which means that the common people who face up and down can cultivate whether the wind and rain can be smooth.

This day is also celebrated by the whole world.

The emperor sat on the top of the Jinluan hall, the hundred officials bowed, and then reported the situation of the area under management, and the emperor listened quietly to the palace and let the hundred officials solve the problem together, and over, let the tea be given to the hundred officials.

After this link is completed, it will begin, the spring ploughing banquet at noon.

Spring ploughing banquet, in addition to the emperor who did not appear in the court for many days, the most eye-catching thing was that the four princes attended with the four princesses, and the second prince Jun Qingzhen, who had not seen guests for many days, actually sat intimately with Mu Rin.

The emperor granted Mu Rin the exemption from bowing and thoughtfully gave him tea.

And it is even more natural that the Four Princes and Mu Qingyan do not bow down to the emperor.

Mu Qingyan looked at the lively and festive banquet, and watched those officials harmoniously talking to each other, talking and laughing, and couldn't help but feel very interesting.

The Jinluan Hall and the Imperial Study are very far apart, and the emperor will not go back at this time, let alone the hundred officials.

Therefore, Mu Qingyan then urinated and walked out of the Jinluan Palace to the backyard of the palace.

Of course, her goal is very big, and there are eunuchs and palace maids all the way out, and officials who go out to use thatched houses salute her one after another.

In this regard, Mu Qingyan responded one by one, without any panic or discomfort.

Suddenly, Mu Qingyan squinted at the eunuch leading the way in front of her, and asked, "Why do you dare to keep your head down?" ”

The eunuch didn't expect Mu Qingyan to say this, he was stunned for a moment, turned around and replied respectfully: "Back to the fourth princess, the road led by the slave is this one that is not wrong, because today is the spring ploughing banquet, so the previous Gongfang has been sealed, and the new Gongfang has no slaves to lead the way, you can't go!"

Mu Qingyan stood in place and said lightly: "Oh, is it? It just so happens that the one in front of me is the little lianzi next to the chief manager Gui Gonggong, so ask him to lead the way for this princess!"

As soon as the eunuch heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked ahead, but he didn't see anyone in front of him, only to know that he had been tricked by Mu Qingyan, and then, with a frightened face, begged for mercy: "The fourth princess spares her life, the slave didn't bring you here on purpose......"

"It's not intentional, it's intentional!" Mu Qingyan said lightly, her eyes were cold, but she wanted to know who deliberately led her here.

Yan'er had already stepped forward, put the sword on the little eunuch's neck, and said coldly: "Say, who asked you to bring my princess here?"

The little eunuch knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "The slave just received a note saying that he wanted to bring the princess here, so he followed suit, and he didn't know who asked the slave to do it." ”

Yan'er listened, the sword in her hand stepped forward again, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you fooling!"

This is obviously not believing the little eunuch's statement.

The little eunuch was so frightened by the sword in Yan'er's hand that his whole person became weak, and he hurriedly said tremblingly: "Really, the slave really didn't lie, he was on an errand in the palace, and the less he knew, the longer he lived, this is well known." The slave is also pressed down by the big position, and the slave naturally does not dare to say much. Doing a good job is the foundation of life, so the slave really doesn't dare to deceive you, the fourth princess!"

When Mu Qingyan heard this, her eyes darkened slightly, and her head turned rapidly.

After a long time, Mu Qingyan spoke: "Yan'er, let him go!"

The little eunuch never dreamed that Mu Qingyan would let him go so easily, and hurriedly kowtowed and said, "The slave thanked the four princesses, and the slave thanked the four princesses......"

When Mu Qingyan heard this, her expression was just faint, she waved her hand at him and sent it away.

Luan'er looked at the little eunuch who was crawling and rolling, and asked, "Princess, why did you let him go?"

At this time, Yan'er had already taken back her sword and walked back to Mu Qingyan's side.

Mu Qingyan smiled faintly and said, "Looking at his timid and scared appearance, just now Yan'er drew his sword, he was so frightened that the six gods and no master said anything." Under the instinct of survival, what people say still has some credibility. Of course, even if it's not true, it won't kill the little eunuch. ”

Luan'er listened and responded: "Princess, that's what you said." It's just, now are we going to move on?"

Mu Qingyan looked at the palace in front of her and said lightly: "Since someone deliberately brought me here, let's go further and take a look, originally, I came out to personally confirm the environment around the imperial study." Once you've come here, let's take a walk. ”

I didn't walk a few steps.

Mu Qingyan stopped, looking at the somewhat ruined palace in front of her, her eyes deepened a lot.

At first glance, it looks like a place like a cold palace, so gloomy and unpopular, which makes people feel very bad.

Luan Er said softly: "Princess, it's too weird here, otherwise, let's go back to the Jinluan Palace, right?"

At this time, Yan'er also tensed her nerves, and her hand clenched her sword tightly.

Because of their previous experience, they really didn't want to take this risk, and they didn't know if they could really let Mu Qingyan be captured or disappeared again, and they would be as lucky as last time, and they could bring people back.

Mu Qingyan didn't respond, but looked at the palace in front of her, pondering something.

Luan'er didn't get a response, and said again with some depression: "Princess, ...... here"

At this time, Mu Qingyan looked sideways at Luan'er and said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”

"But......" Luan'er was about to persuade, but Mu Qingyan had already taken a step towards the dilapidated Zhumen in front of her.

When I walked in, I saw an old man in plain clothes and an old face sitting on the steps in a daze, with empty eyes, numb expression, withered face, and thin limbs......

If not, those empty eyes moved, and it was simply a dried corpse.

"You're finally here......"

A low, hoarse, ghostly voice came from the old man's dry lips.

Luan'er, Yan'er listened, and couldn't help but feel a chill in her back, and looked at the old man in a daze in front of her vigilantly.

"......" Mu Qingyan was a little strange and asked, "Old man, are you talking to me?"

The old man like a dry corpse turned his head slightly, cast a hollow gaze on Mu Qingyan's face, and said with a weird smile: "Of course, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I have been waiting for you for a long time......"

Mu Qingyan never dreamed that such a person would find her.

"I don't know, what's the matter with you going to such great lengths to see me?"

"Yes, in order to see you, I used up the last jewels that my mother left me, and all the vampires in the palace are not good people. When the old man said this, his face was full of hideousness and looked even more terrifying.

Mu Qingyan naturally didn't have much emotional ups and downs, and she didn't put the old man's resentment in her heart, but asked lightly: "You don't want to give them money and don't see me, I see that you should also be an old man in the palace, I don't know which master's person is next to you?"

The old man listened to Mu Qingyan's words and said, "I am Mama Li, and I am Li Xi's mother's nurse." ”

Li Xi! Mu Qingyan raised her eyebrows, isn't that Jun Qingzhen's biological mother? Why has she never heard the emperor say that the nurse next to Li Xi is still alive?

"Mama Li, what do you want to say to me when you came to me?" Mu Qingyan stepped forward at this time and asked.

Mama Li is very likely to be the one who knows everything back then, so even if there is danger, she still has to come forward and ask clearly.

Luan'er, Yan'er hurriedly followed, guarding left and right.

Mama Li slowly stood up from the steps, her numb eyes finally moved, her cloudy eyes reflected Mu Qingyan's appearance, raised a weird smile, and said: "The Queen Mother wants to kill me, I didn't die, what I was waiting for was this day." You are Ye Xin's daughter!"

Mu Qingyan saw that she was acting strangely and looked crazy, but her behavior was indeed very organized, so she simply said to her: "Yes, when you asked people to bring me over, shouldn't you have confirmed it." I don't think you want to be easily deceived, and if you can find someone to help you in this kind of place, you obviously won't be a fool. ”

Mama Li looked at Mu Qingyan and said, "You are very similar to Ye Xin, but you are both equally smart! But so what, it's not the same to be killed! And I am old and fragile, I thought that I would regret this remnant life like this, but I didn't expect that I would let me know about your existence." ”

"Why are you so happy to know my existence?" Mu Qingyan thought for a while and said, "Since you are Li Xi's nurse, why don't you find the second prince Jun Qingzhen to rescue you out?"

Although Jun Qingzhen is gentle, it is also possible to rescue an old lady from the palace.

"No, the second prince doesn't know the existence of the old slave!" Mama Li said in a deep voice: "If the old slave follows the second prince, it will only bring him endless pursuit." ”

"Who wants to hunt you down, why do you want to hunt you down?" Mu Qingyan was strange, this Mama Li in front of her was really a little beyond her thoughts.

Mama Li raised that weird smile on her face again, and said: "Because, I know that today's Queen Mother is not today's Queen Mother, she is a fake, she killed the first emperor, killed Ye Xin, killed my mother, and killed many, many people......"

As she spoke, she let out a strange cry of madness, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable when they heard it.

Mu Qingyan continued to look at Mama Li seriously and listened to her carefully.

Mama Li cried enough, and suddenly looked up at Mu Qingyan, with a fleeting smile on her face, and then said, "You have been married for so long and are not pregnant!"

Not a doubt, but an affirmation, a very affirmation.

Luan'er, Yan'er listened in a daze, but when she heard this, she seemed to understand what this crazy old woman wanted to say.

When Mu Qingyan heard this, her calm face suddenly changed, and she asked in a deep voice, "Do you know why?"

"That's because the Queen Mother added a cold medicine to the medicine that poisoned Ye Xin, if you don't eat it, you will cut off your offspring, and if you eat it, it will spread to the fetus......"

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan's face was as cold as ice.

At this time, the prince actually appeared with a group of guards, all of them Praetorian Guards with knives, and the leader of the Praetorian Guards pulled out his bow and arrow from a distance, and took advantage of Mu Qingyan's unpreparedness to shoot into Mama Li's heart.

Mu Qingyan hurriedly stepped forward to treat her, but unfortunately, she was already a step late.

"Fourth Emperor Aunt, are you okay?"

Mu Qingyan's face was cold, and the gaze of her eyes swept coldly over the prince and the others in the courtyard......
