The noon sun is like fire, burning the chill under the eyes of the sunset.

After rearranging the seats, Luoxi calmly said, "Go on." ”

The crowd in the audience seemed to have lost their souls, went to their minds, and mechanically repeated the actions of their predecessors, stiff and boring.

Everyone on the stage also lost their minds, they were waiting, waiting for Jade and Jingjing, waiting for the imperial doctor, waiting for the ending of life and death.

Linglong was also waiting, she knelt in front of the stage, her body couldn't stop shaking, big drops of sweat fell in the sand, her pale cheeks silently told of fear, and Mu Guifei opened her eyes.

The waiting time is the hardest. I don't know how long it took, Jingjing walked up to the stage with a green wooden tray in both hands, only to hear her say, "Back to all the mothers, I found a box of incense powder in the Linglong room." ”

Doctor Luo, who had just arrived, understood, stepped forward, picked up the box and unscrewed it for careful inspection.

Linglong's eyes were sharp, and she saw the box at a glance, and was shocked to look at the jade behind Jingjing.

Jade didn't know what she meant, and when she saw her look like she was broken, she shook her head slightly, motioning for her to wait and see.

Imperial Doctor Luo is about thirty or forty years old, but his medical skills are outstanding, and he looks like he is only in his twenties, at this moment he carefully picked out a little incense powder with his fingertips and smelled it, tasted it again, tasted it for a while, noticed something, and hurriedly spit out the things in his mouth.

Luo Xi asked, "Imperial Doctor Luo, is there anything special about this incense powder?" Can it make ordinary women like martial arts masters, with light steps? ”

"Yu Niangniang, this thing does have the effect of making a woman's body light."

As soon as these words came out, he Changgong breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, especially Linglong, tears of joy crossed the corners of her eyes, and she kowtowed excitedly, "Thank you, Niangniang, thank you, Doctor." ”

Mu Yudai was also happy, and left to salute the sunset, "Niangniang is upright and kind, which is the luck of the Chu Palace." ”

Luo Xi smiled and accepted Mu Yudai's salute, and said, "Sister is polite, this is what this palace should do." If my sister wants to thank Doctor Xie Luo, if he hadn't been well-informed, Linglong would have been wronged. ”

Everyone looked different, but their mouths were more than agreeable.

Mu Yudai nodded yes and looked at Imperial Physician Luo, "Thank you Imperial Physician Luo." ”

Luo Xi asked curiously, "What kind of fragrance powder is this, and it can have such an effect?" ”

Imperial Doctor Luo, who was praised by everyone, looked embarrassed, as if it was difficult to speak, and finally said, "This is the powder ground from the cold charm pill, not a fragrant powder." ”

Everyone gasped in shock, only Li Chengyong relaxed his body slightly, as if relieved, but everyone's attention was on the box of powder, except for Mu Yutao, no one noticed it, and even Mu Yutao himself suspected that he was wrong.

The cold charm pill is a good spice bustard blended, is a common rejuvenating pill in the inferior brothels, it can make the fragrance of the woman's body long and long, more moving, so it is all the rage, but because there is a musk in the medicinal herbs, it is forbidden by the palace.

Luo Xi's face turned red, and she said angrily, "How can there be such a dirty thing in the palace!" Linglong, you recruited it truthfully, where did this thing come from? ”

Linglong was stunned, from hell to the world to hell, but in a few blinks, she couldn't keep up with the development of things, and her arrogance and domineering on weekdays had turned into sand. She cried out loudly, "Slave doesn't know, that's not my box, I haven't seen this box." ”

Luoxi looked at Jingjing, and Jingjing said, "This box was found under the bed of the Linglong girl, and there was no dust on it when I found it, so it can be seen that it is often used." ”

Jingjing continued, "Niangniang, the slave and maid also know a little about medicine, can you listen to the slave and maid." ”

"Say."

"Just now, when the imperial doctor examined the body of the Linglong girl, the slave maid was also there, and the Linglong girl had no fragrance on her body, so it can be seen that she did not directly consume the cold charm pill herself."

Mu Yudai nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, Linglong serves by my side every day, and there has never been a strange fragrance on his body." ”

Luo Xi said suspiciously, "Then if she hasn't eaten it, how can she be as light as a master." ”

Imperial Physician Luo explained, "What can make the human body light is actually the Lang Dou in the cold charm pill, this medicinal material will naturally penetrate the texture with the breath when the time is extended, but it is slow to take effect compared to eating, at least about a month." The Linglong girl should have kept the medicinal powder of the cold charm pill in the room for a long time, although she can't smell it, but the medicinal properties are always permeating. ”

Saying that, Imperial Physician Luo opened the box again, and hesitantly reminded, "Niangniang, this box is very new, but only half of the medicinal powder in it is left......

Mu Yudai's feet were weak, he sat on the ground, and pointed at Linglong speechless.

"Miss, believe me, I really haven't seen this box, I don't know how it ended up in my room, miss...... Mother...... you watched me grow up, you know me......"

Luo Xi leaned on the phoenix throne with one hand on her forehead, her wide sleeves covered her face, her voice was full of disappointment and exhaustion, but the words she spit out were so chilling, "Pass on the decree of the palace, search the palace immediately, and be sure to find the remaining medicinal powder." ”

Putting down the hand that was shielding, Luo Xi looked at Mu Yutao with a solemn face and said, "General, that's all for today's investigation, the general has been busy all morning, and he is tired, so he will continue another day." ”

Mu Yutao understood Luoxi's meaning, and was grateful for Luoxi's thoughts, this was a scandal in the palace, and the Praetorian Guard, as a foreign minister, had better withdraw from the battle in the harem as soon as possible. He looked at his sister-in-law and sighed, and led Yu Zhou to leave Fengcai Building.

Only listen to the voice of the setting sun throughout the pavilion, "Today, without the permission of the palace, no one is allowed to leave the Fengcai Building." ”

……

Ten days after saying goodbye to the queen, Luo Xi'an was on the top of the phoenix platform, looking at the warbler Yanyan under the stage, with a peaceful and dignified face.

Accompanying Yu Dai is no longer the pretty and lively Linglong, but the old jade, who has not seen her for a few days, and life has added a few pounds of burden to her, and she can't stand up straight.

The opposite side of Yu Dai is no longer empty, Zhang Guiren has entered the concubine position, and the delicate green clothes add spring color, which shows that she is even more beautiful.

Originally, Li Chengyong's position was now vacant, and the old and frail chief steward had never stepped into Fengcai Building again, as people expected.

Mu Yutao accompanied the queen to watch the whole investigation without any danger, and left Fengcai Building calmly.

It wasn't until he returned to his barracks that he found an excuse to send away the gossip of his subordinates as soon as he came back, and Cao Zhou noticed that his expression was different, and he didn't move on the stool, Mu Yutao hesitated for a moment before he let go of his right hand, revealing the note in his palm.

Yu Zhou on the side said suspiciously, "The queen gave it to you?" When was it given to you? ”

"Jingjing stuffed it into my hand when she served tea."

Hearing this, Zhou felt embarrassed for a moment, it felt quite like his brother was sick and wanted to change the dressing, and he volunteered to help him, only to find out that he was changing hemorrhoids cream...... Unspeakably awkward, he turned his face away and deliberately walked to the window to fiddle with the tea set.

Mu Yutao opened the note with some trepidation, and said after a while, "The murder of the palace maid can be closed." ”

Zhou turned back suddenly, "Huh? ”

"That day, the queen ordered a search of the palace, and found the bloody clothes and murder weapon in the room of the palace maid Xiaoqing, which were verified to match the wound of the crescent moon."

"Is there still such a master in Changle Palace?"

Mu Yutao shook his head to show that he didn't know.

Cao Zhou frowned and asked, "Who is this Xiaoqing?" ”

"The letter didn't say, if you guessed it correctly, it was my father's person......" Seeing that Cao Zhou was full of suspicion, he explained, "It was the king who ordered the case to be closed." ”

Yu Zhou suddenly realized that in the palace, the only people who could make the king so protective were Mu Guifei and Mu Xiang.

He was a little dissatisfied in his heart, the two looked at each other for a moment, and they both saw helplessness and sorrow on each other's faces, Zeng Zhou added a touch of disappointment in his heart, but it was inconvenient to explain it in detail to Mu Yutao, so he made an appointment with the girl from Qingqin Pavilion and said goodbye.

Mu Yutao sent him to the door, watched him walk lonely through the wide city gate, and moved his gaze to the note in his hand again.

At the bottom of the note were a few small characters, and the handwriting was debauched and smooth, as atmospheric as Luoxi himself, completely different from the upright and beautiful handwriting above.

Mu Yutao took a closer look, and the faint fragrance of pear blossoms was blowing on his face, only to see that it said, "See you in three days, please take care of it." ”
