After saying a word, he just sighed lightly and took Jiang Fu into the palace.

Since it was summoned by the Queen Mother, Hua Zhen didn't dare to slack off, changed her clothes, and followed the eunuch into the palace.

Because Jiang Fu's identity was not allowed to enter the palace, he stayed outside the palace gate, but Hua Zhen walked to Cining Palace with the eunuch.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at Cining Palace, the little eunuch suddenly had a stomachache and couldn't even walk.

Thinking that if Hua Zhen didn't have him to lead him, Hua Zhen couldn't rush to Cining Palace, so he asked Hua Zhen to wait for a while, and he went to make it convenient first.

Because this kind of thing is not uncommon in the palace, Hua Zhen just nodded when she saw this, and stood in place.

The little eunuch was very grateful and hurried to find a room.

After waiting for a long time, the little eunuch had not yet returned, and Hua Zhen was waiting boredly, so she watched a figure sneakily walking towards the courtyard on the side.

However, at a glance, Hua Zhen felt that the person who walked over was very similar to Ruoyun, thinking about the words of Princess Dongjun, she suddenly became curious and wanted to follow and take a look.

Seeing that there was no one around, the little eunuch didn't know when he would come back.

Vera hesitated for a moment, then followed.

Because she was also familiar with the situation in the palace, she followed the person wearing the palace concubine's clothes in front of her all the way to a small courtyard next to Yanxi Palace.

Seeing people enter the courtyard, I couldn't help but pause.

Seeing that this place is not far from Yanxi Palace, I have been walking for a long time.

Immediately, I felt that something was wrong, and I turned around and prepared to go back.

But just as he turned around, he suddenly heard the sound of something smashing inside.

The sound was so loud that it could be heard clearly outside the door.

Hua Zhen thought about this movement, and Yanxi Palace should also be able to hear it.

There was no one living in this courtyard at all, if Qin Guifei heard about it, she would be suspicious and send someone over to take a look.

If there is anything, there is a response.

Immediately pushed the door and walked in.

At this moment, she just wanted to know what Ruoyun wanted to do, and when she saw a white shadow flashing, she immediately walked in quickly.

When she entered the room and looked at the scene in front of her, Hua Zhen was completely stunned.

There was a large pool of blood on the ground, and a woman in a gorgeous costume fell to the ground.

Judging from the figure alone, it looks like a county lord, and the palace clothes he wears are the place of the county lord.

With an ominous premonition in her heart, Hua Zhen was about to turn around, but she listened to the whisper* of the person on the ground, and the voice was very similar to Zhaoyang.

Suddenly, his mind was clouded, he squatted down and turned over the person lying on the ground, and sure enough, it was Zhaoyang.

It's just that at this moment, Zhaoyang was covered in blood, with a dagger stuck in his abdomen, and the blood had already flowed all over the ground.

It's just that this blow didn't seem to directly kill her, at this moment she is still breathing, holding on, looking at Hua Zhen, her bloody hand touched Hua Zhen's face, and then said: "Be careful behind!"

As he spoke, he didn't come up again, and his hand fell.

Hua Zhen watched Zhaoyang breathe in her arms, only to feel that her body was cold to the bone.

Even if Zhaoyang was like Xiao Huaijin to her, she never thought that Zhaoyang would die, and now that Zhaoyang was out of breath, she only felt that her brain seemed to have been struck by lightning, buzzing.

Holding Zhaoyang's body, he couldn't stop shaking: "Zhaoyang, wake up, Zhaoyang!"

After a while, she heard an exclamation at the door, and Hua Zhen turned around and saw Tang Wan'er standing at the door, her face full of fright, looking at Hua Zhen as if she was afraid, she retreated back, and her whole body fell to the ground.

"Killed, you killed the Zhaoyang County Lord! You killed the Zhaoyang County Lord!"

As he spoke, he moved back.

The sound was so loud that Hua Zhen only felt a little pain in her ears.

The palace eunuchs and guards outside were naturally also alarmed, and immediately rushed in.

Hua Zhen knew that something was wrong, and immediately put down Zhaoyang and stood up.

The gang watched Tang Wan'er sit on the ground, while Zhaoyang was lying on the ground, with a dagger stuck in his body and out of breath.

And Hua Zhen stood on the side, covered in blood, and her face was full of coldness.

Immediately, Jin Wuwei surrounded the entire small courtyard, and someone immediately went to inform the emperor and the imperial concubine.

There was a murder in the palace, and it was the only daughter of Prince Li who died, the county lord of Zhaoyang.

It didn't take long for the whole palace to spread, and Hua Zhen saw Jin Wuwei surrounding him, and he knew that it was not good.

But it was already late, so I could only stand in place and look at Zhaoyang lying on the ground.

For a long time, a tear fell from her dry eyes, she has always regarded Zhaoyang as her only friend, and watching her being killed at this moment, not to mention what will happen if she is framed.

Zhaoyang's death alone, her heart was also uncomfortable.

Tang Wan'er was still sitting on the ground, her eyes moved from Hua Zhen to Zhaoyang on the ground, with a trace of coldness in her eyes, as if she was resentful.

It's just that at this moment, everyone's eyes are on Hua Zhen and Zhaoyang, and no one notices her look.

The first to rush over was naturally Qin Guifei from Yanxi Palace, and when Qin Guifei got the news, she brought someone over.

Just looked at Hua Zhen and shook her head, and immediately understood in her heart.

But looking at Zhaoyang on the ground, my heart sank completely.

Prince Li regarded Zhaoyang as more important than his life, and for the sake of this daughter, he did not hesitate to go against the emperor's wishes and ask her to marry Xiao Huaijin.

At this moment, Zhaoyang died in the palace, no matter whether this matter was related to Hua Zhen or not, Prince Li was afraid that he would not spare Hua Zhen.

Even if Qin Guifei believed that Hua Zhen would never kill Zhaoyang, she was still worried at the moment.

Hua Zhen understood Qin Guifei's thoughts, and immediately squatted beside Zhaoyang, wiping the blood stains on her face with her clothes.

"You said to let me be careful behind my back, is it that the person who killed you is behind me. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the eunuch outside the door singing loudly: "The emperor has arrived, and the imperial concubine has arrived." ”

Immediately, everyone knelt down with Concubine Qin, and Hua Zhen also knelt on the ground.

As soon as the emperor entered the door, he looked at Zhaoyang's corpse, and immediately became furious: "What's going on?"

As he spoke, he saw Hua Zhen and immediately asked, "Zhen'er, what's going on?"

Hearing this, Hua Zhen hadn't spoken yet, but Tang Wan'er spoke first: "Your Majesty, the maiden accompanied the county lord into the palace, originally to meet the queen mother, and after the county lord said that he wanted to visit Qin Guifei Niangniang, he brought the folk girl over, but he walked here and twisted his foot, so he said that the folk girl should go to find the concubine Niangniang first and send two envoys to call the palace maid to come over to help her." The slave maid just went to Yanxi Palace, because the people in Yanxi Palace didn't know the people's daughter, and didn't let the people's daughter see the concubine Niangniang, the people's girl had to come back to find the county lord, but she didn't expect that as soon as she entered the door, she saw the county lord of Qinghe standing in front of the county lord of Zhaoyang, with a fierce look on his face, and the county lord of Zhaoyang was lying on the ground, covered in blood. The maiden sat down on the ground in fright, and then the guards and eunuchs in the vicinity followed in at the sound of the voice. ”

Hearing this, the emperor looked around and said sharply: "Is that so?"

Hearing this, Jin Wuwei, who was the leader, immediately said: "The minister is taking people on an inspection, and when he heard someone screaming, he rushed in, and the rest is just like what the girl said just now, the county lord of Zhaoyang was lying on the ground covered in blood, and the county lord of Qinghe was standing next to the body of the county lord of Zhaoyang. ”

Seeing Hua Zhen kneeling on the ground at this moment, the imperial concubine suddenly sneered in her heart.

She hates Hua Zhen almost to the bone at the moment.

Originally, he was counting on assisting Zhao Ting to ascend to the throne, and he could be the mother of the country, but now it is this Hua Zhen who ruined Zhao Ting and ruined his future.

As long as she thought of this, thinking of what Zhao Jinghe and Shen Yuxin said in front of her, the imperial concubine hated the root of her teeth, and hated to kill Hua Zhen to relieve her anger.

Seeing this situation now, he immediately refused to let it go, looked at Hua Zhen and said coldly: "Lord Qinghe, you are really bold, this is the palace, she is the only daughter of Prince Li, Princess Zhaoyang of Dayan." I didn't expect that for the sake of Xiao Huaijin, you would be able to poison Zhaoyang next time, you should be really ruthless. ”

Hearing this, Hua Zhen turned back to the eyes of the imperial concubine, and there was a hint of fierceness in her eyes.

Seeing this, the imperial concubine only felt her heart skip a beat, but it was only for a moment, and she recovered and looked at Hua Zhen: "You think that if you kill Zhaoyang, the emperor will be able to agree to this family business, Hua Zhen really didn't expect that you are such a person, and you will do anything for yourself." ”

"The imperial concubine spoke politely, I haven't known how this matter happened, this person is the county lord of Qinghe has not yet found out. The imperial concubine will now say that the county lord of Qinghe is the county lord of Zhaoyang who was killed for Xiao Shizi, if he wrongs a good person, what should he do. "Qin Guifei saw that the imperial concubine began to fall into the well like this, and she couldn't sit idly by.

immediately spoke and helped Hua Zhen.

Seeing this, the imperial concubine sneered: "Why is she the only one in this room, does Qin Guifei think that this matter has nothing to do with her." ”

"I don't know if it has anything to do with her, and it's not something I should worry about, since there was a murder, the criminal department should find out. I will not have any evidence, so I will make up my mind, say who is right and wrong, and ask the concubine to pay attention to it when she speaks, be cautious in her words and deeds, and don't say what you shouldn't say and regret it when the time comes. Qin Guifei said, with a faint expression on her face.

Suddenly the imperial concubine was angry, but she just wanted to speak up, but was stopped by Emperor Yan Wen coldly.

"Alright, you all shut up. ”

The imperial concubine didn't dare to say anything more immediately, but she looked at the look on her face that was very annoyed, and her eyes were full of hatred when she stared at Qin Guifei.

Emperor Yan Wen ignored the two of them, and just looked at Hua Zhen: "What the hell is going on?"

Hearing this, Hua Zhen knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Today, Zhen'er was ordered by the Queen Mother to enter the palace to see the driver, and she should have gone directly to Cining Palace, but the father-in-law who passed the decree was not feeling well, and wanted to go for convenience, so Zhen'er waited on the side, but she was looking at a person sneaky, and she was curious for a moment and followed her to see, but she didn't expect to follow her all the way here, and when she entered the door, she saw that Zhaoyang had fallen to the ground, and blood flowed all over the ground. Zhen'er wanted to hurry out to find someone, but before she could stand up, she had already shouted. Hua Zhen said and pointed to Tang Wan'er who was kneeling beside her.

Emperor Yan Wen's eyes immediately fell on Tang Wan'er.

Seeing this, the imperial concubine on the side immediately said sarcastically: "A good one to follow all the way, if the county lord of Qinghe wants to visit the queen mother, he should take Chongwenmen and cross the long street all the way to Cining Palace, this is already to Yanxi Palace, how long does the county lord have to follow to follow here." ”
