Out of the gate of Chengqian Palace, Chun Xi couldn't wait to ask Xuan Ye: "Why did the emperor get so much evidence today?" "Although I know that what Xuan Ye said is not true, it is good that the matter is resolved like this.

But there were many doubts in his heart, and curiosity finally drove Chunxi to ask.

"As soon as Li Yu dies, the matter will definitely involve others." Xuan Ye said helplessly: "I don't care about Li Yu's life and death, but I care about the reputation of Jing Guiren." Before coming to the Chengqian Palace, I had already received the news that the Shen Criminal Division's interrogation had yielded the result. originally thought that Rong Xuan had really confessed, but he didn't expect that Du Ruo would be involved in this matter. ”

"It's the concubine's failure to prevent trouble before it happens, which makes the emperor worried." Du Ruo, who was beside him, smiled embarrassedly: "I also bother the emperor to set up such a bureau to rescue the concubine." ”

"You have no fault, but there are always people who want to force all the crimes on you." Xuan Ye comforted Du Ruo and said: "A few of us understand that Li Yu has a problem, and naturally I also understand that Du Ruo can't arrange such a thing to frame Jing Guiren, and it is still Li Yu's hand." There must be something else going on in this matter. ”

"The emperor is wise." Du Ruo smiled warmly.

"For the past few days, I've been thinking about what to do with Jing Guiren. If the old lady finds out, Jing Guiren is not a virgin, and has been defiled by that guard. What am I going to do? Xuan Ye said with a solemn expression: "Regardless of whether Jing Guiren has a relationship with that guard or not, a woman's loss of virginity is a big deal, and if this happens in the palace, it is a capital crime." But Jing Guiren is the sister of Empress Renxiao and the aunt of the crown prince. For the sake of Empress Renxiao's reputation, and for the sake of the prince's future, I can't let such a crime be convicted. Jing nobles can't die, especially not like this. So the matter was delayed. Later, when I heard that Li Yu died, I thought that she was not an important person, and she entered the palace with a purpose, and she was already a lot of anxiety about staying by your side. It just so happened that Jing Guiren lived in Changchun Palace again. I thought of it, and laid all the blame on a dead man. Anyway, Rong Xuan is a dishonest person, and as soon as his evidence is overturned, no one knows who the person who really bought him is. It's good to know about this matter. ”

"Doesn't the emperor want to know who harmed Jing Guiren?" Chunxi raised her eyebrows and asked him.

Xuan Ye shook his head: "What if you know?" If you continue to track it down, will you really be able to catch the real culprit? Rong Xuan was bribed, since he could spit out such filthy words from his mouth, he would not find out the real culprit from his mouth. Do we have any other clues? ”

"What about Li Yu's death?" Du Ruo was also very curious: "How did Li Yu die?" ”

"How could a person pour hot water on himself on such a cold day and freeze himself into a popsicle?" Xuan Ye said: "It must be the real murderer who sent someone to do it, kill Li Yu, and blame you." ”

"Does the emperor think that it doesn't matter who the real culprit is?" Chun Xi asked.

Xuan Ye said: "It's not important. Left and right are just jealous of the grace that the noble people have received recently. Have you been less conspired against over the years? Who in this palace doesn't have a heart? ”

Xuan Ye knew in his heart that harem disputes could never be avoided. Just like those ministers in the DPRK and China, which one does not have the means?

People are good at being bullied, this is a way for them to protect themselves, but it is also a sharp blade to kill others. The winner is king, and this has been the case since ancient times.

Xuan Ye didn't want to worry too much, if he did, he would always involve more people and more things. When the time comes, it will be Li Yu who will die. I'm afraid that if it's quiet, I can really only spend it in the cold palace inexplicably. It's better to solve it in this way and block the mouths of the people.

Xuan Ye's words are good, and Xuan Xi also understands. There are many things, and it makes no sense to pursue the truth too much. As long as the current crisis is solved and there is an answer that everyone is satisfied with, everyone will take this answer as the truth.

Walking to the fork in the road, Xuan Ye returned to the Qianqing Palace, while Xuan Xi and Du Ruo walked in the direction of the Cold Palace.

"Do you think that today's Concubine De is not the same as usual?" Du Ruo is also a careful person, and she sees Lan Xin's performance today. It's only now that I talk about it.

"It's different." Chun Xi nodded: "Li Yu's death is still strange. This kind of death has never been seen in this palace. Although it was a situation of self-hanging, it left too many suspicious places, and it was not like the means of the imperial concubine. ”

With doubts, Chunxi and Du Ruo have already arrived in the cold palace again.

When she saw Jinghao, she sat on the bed, her red and swollen glasses were dry, and she didn't know how many times she cried.

"Hongu is here to pick you up." The sound of the voice sounded like heaven to the quiet ears.

Pity a girl who is like a flower and jade, and suffer such an insult at such a good time. If it is changed to ordinary people's homes, as soon as things go out, I am afraid that I will not even be able to get married.

In order to clean up quietly, Chunxi personally combed her hair bun and put on her own gold hairpin jewelry for her. That's why the palace people who often waited around her helped her to go outside.

"Jing Gui's heart is at ease, and the truth has been revealed. No one will talk about it anymore. Du Ruo walked beside Jing Hao and persuaded with good words.

Jinghao's eyes turned red again, she had been wronged for so many days, and finally walked out of that cold and dark place.

"Who is the one who harmed me?" Jing Hao stopped, took Du Ruo's hand and asked anxiously.

"It's Li Yu." Du Ruo glanced at Chun Xi and saw that she gave him an affirmative look, so he said to Jing Hao.

"Li Yu?" Jing Hao wondered, looking at Du Ruo a little overwhelmed: "Isn't Li Yu your person?" ”

"So far, this palace can only tell you clearly." Chun Xi was afraid that Jing Hao would embarrass Du Ruo, so she rushed in front of Du Ruo and explained: "Li Yu is not Du Ruo's person. At the beginning, the palace toured south with the emperor and met Li Yu on the road. She deliberately made the palace and the emperor mistakenly think that she was the palace maid next to Empress Renxiao and Du Ruo's sister, so she entered the palace. In fact, Li Yu is the person arranged by your uncle Suo Etu to be by his side in this palace. The reason why you will stay in Changchun Palace is also because he bothered to arrange it. With Li Yu here, he can know your every move. to protect you. It is precisely because of Li Yu's news that your uncle will send someone to the palace to rescue you as soon as possible. ”

"In that case, why does Li Yu still want to harm me?" Jing Hao was very puzzled, she couldn't understand, since Li Yu was the one who protected her, how could she become the one who killed her?

"The person who harmed you was not Li Yu." Chun Xi said: "But from now on, you can only identify it as Li Yu." ”

Jing Hao was even more dazed, not understanding what Chunxi meant at all.

"Li Yu has been killed by the real murderer, in order to preserve your reputation, in order to prevent things from getting worse, and in order to let you leave the cold palace as soon as possible. The emperor has already disposed of the guards who have defiled you, and all this has been borne by Li Yu. Chun Xi said frankly: "You have to understand your situation, if you want to turn the situation around, this is the best way." In the future, no matter how much doubt there is, it cannot be spoken. You can only think of it as discovering Li Yu's secret and being calculated by her. ”

Jing Hao couldn't understand why he couldn't track down the real culprit.

If someone else wanted to kill her, then why did the real murderer kill Li Yu?

Jing Hao looked at Du Ruo suspiciously, then looked at Chunxi, and continued to walk forward silently.

She doesn't ask anymore, and the more she asks, the farther she gets from the truth.

Perhaps, it was Li Yu who harmed her at all, but someone put everything on Li Yu in order to cover up the crime.

What Chunxi said was too far-fetched, and Jing Hao couldn't believe it.

When he returned to Changchun Palace, he closed the door and asked his only trustworthy Xin'er carefully everything that happened in Chengqian Palace and everything they said.

After listening to Xin'er's narration, Jing Hao felt that Chunxi's words were quibbles.

It seems that this matter has nothing to do with Du Ruo. Concubine Yi said that to me, but she wanted to excuse Du Ruo. Jing Hao hated very much in her heart, hated herself for being incompetent, hated herself for being plotted, but didn't know who the real murderer was.

She remembered the instructions in her ear after sending her back: "Don't pursue today's affairs, so as not to cause more fearless troubles because of small mistakes." Don't worry, the emperor understands that you have been wronged, and naturally he will not treat you badly. ”

A calm heart, a little calm from the waves, after this incident, she finally understood that this harem was far from as quiet as she imagined.

In countless lonely nights, these women not only miss their beloved, but also jealousy and dissatisfaction with other women. In this long, lonely night, they can always come up with a poisonous plan that kills people day by day.

"In the future, we can't do it like that before. The people in this palace are not trusted. Who knows that they are good on the surface, but they are stumbling in secret. Jing Hao said sadly.

"Little master, do you want to talk about today's grievances? Let Lord Suo think of ideas for us? Xin'er saw her with a sad face, but she couldn't find the words to comfort Jinghao.

Jing Hao said angrily: "What do you say? Say that my skills are not as good as others, and I have planted such a big heel? Since my uncle asked him to beg Concubine Yi to save me, he must have known about this matter, and he had no choice but to let Concubine Yi save me. What's the use of me complaining to him again? It's only going to make him think I'm useless more and more. Originally, when I entered the palace, he expected me to replace my sister and curry favor in front of the emperor. Let the emperor love me a little more, and also share some of the grace of Concubine Yi. In this way, the position of the crown prince can be preserved. But today, not only did I fail to do what he commanded, but I also lost such a face, how could I beg him to go again? ”

Xin'er didn't dare to say much, but was silently distressed.

Eating a sting and growing wisdom, Chunxi originally thought that Jing Hao had experienced such a thing and would grow. But I didn't expect such a sad and bitter feeling to make Jing Hao completely change.
