Is Concubine Gong's death really as the palace maid said, yes......

Murong didn't dare to continue thinking about it. Because he knew that if it was really her, it would be really tricky.

The palace maid stopped talking, as if she knew something.

Murong walked into the palace quickly, and when he walked to the Qianqing Gate, he remembered that he didn't even know the name of the palace maid, where to find this huge harem courtyard.

Changyang Palace! The palace maid served Concubine Gong in Changyang Palace before, so she must still be serving in Changyang Palace.

Murong had to go to Changyang Palace to meet Concubine Rong again, and he couldn't see Concubine Rong's face the most.

In front of the gate of Changyang Palace, two eunuchs were walking out carrying a stretcher, and Murong knew at a glance that there was a corpse on this stretcher, covered with a white cloth.

"Wait!" Murong stopped the two little eunuchs, looked at the two of them and asked, "Who is this?" ”

The two little eunuchs also knew Murong, put down the stretcher and bowed down and said, "Go back to your lord!" A palace maid died suddenly last night, and the two of us were about to lift it up and dispose of it! ”

Murong approached, lifted the white cloth, and saw that the palace maid from yesterday was lying there quietly.

"Who is she? The palace maid of Changyang Palace? ”

"This palace maid's name is Zijuan! I've been in Changyang Palace for three years! ”

"How did she die?" Murong continued to ask.

Both of them wondered: in this harem, there were countless cases of palace maids and eunuchs fighting to death, why did Murong care so much about the death of a palace maid.

"Presumably it's because she quarrels with her vegetable farmers or the food eaters!" The two little eunuchs laughed at each other.

This pair of eaters and vegetable households was originally taboo in the harem. But Murong is just a minister of the outer court, so there is no taboo.

"Where did you find her?"

"When I got up this morning to work, I found that she was not there, and I thought she must be lazy in the house! When I went to her room and called her, I didn't see her respond, so I gently pushed the door, and she was lying motionless on the ground, and I checked her pulse and saw that she was out of breath! I was so scared that I reported the matter to Concubine Rong, and Niangniang ordered the two of us to dispose of her body! ”

Murong saw that her face was swollen and purple, and her eyes were almost bulging. This palace maid obviously died of his murder.

Murong knew that it was not appropriate to inspect the corpse in this harem, so he said, "Carry this corpse to Jinyi Mansion!" ”

The two of them didn't ask much and followed Murong directly to Jinyi Mansion, which could make these two people tired enough along the way.

The two rubbed their sore shoulders and shook their stiff arms. The fact that these two people still did not leave was a hint of Murong's reward.

"Please go back, two of you!"

The two looked at each other a few times with embarrassed expressions, and wanted to retreat: "This ...... Isn't it ......?"

Murong knew what these two meant, and sneered: "You are asking for a reward? ”

The two of them smiled embarrassedly.

"Dare to ask for the reward of the brocade guard? All right! Murong's face changed suddenly, "Do you want to play the pipa or the tin snake?" ”

When the two of them heard this, their faces changed drastically, cold sweat was dripping on their foreheads, and they ran back to the palace in a puff of smoke.

Murong didn't have time to take care of these two minions, so he directly ordered someone to carry the corpse into the morgue and put it with Concubine Gong.

Murong saw that she was dying as if she was suffocating, and then he unfastened her collar and found that there was a crimson blood-colored handprint on her neck.

It must have been the murderer!

When Murong looked closely, he found that there was incense ash on this dark handprint, and this handprint ......

There was something strange about the handprints on the side of the neck.

"This murderer's right hand is missing a ring finger...... Murong muttered to himself.

Murong's mind suddenly came to mind the deacon eunuch who had knocked down in front of the door of the worship room today.

"It's him!" Murong's eyes lit up.

What Murong said in his heart was Zhang Bao! Today, I accidentally found that Zhang Bao was missing a ring finger, and this ring finger was also cut off by Wang Zhi.

At this time, he became more and more suspicious that Zijuan must know some secrets, and they found out before killing people.

There must be a secret behind this matter!

In front of the worship room, Murong was about to go in when he suddenly saw a eunuch come out and said, "What advice do you have here?" ”

"Where's Zhang Bao?"

"Are you looking for Master Zhang?" The eunuch's face suddenly sank, revealing a sad color, "You're late!" Zhang Ye, he suddenly died last night! ”

"Dead?" Murong couldn't believe it when he heard the news, and looked at the eunuch in front of him with a suspicious face, "Where are you buried?" ”

"If this eunuch dies, he will inevitably be buried in the grave of Zhongguan!" The eunuch said.

"Lead the way!" Murong said coldly, still not believing that Zhang Bao was dead.

Located at the foot of Wanshou Mountain, this Zhongguan Tomb is an excellent feng shui treasure. Generally, the old eunuchs don't want to be in the wilderness after a hundred years, so in order to find a resting place, they buy "righteous land" here, and gradually the eunuchs gather more and more, and it becomes a cemetery for eunuchs. Li Lianying, the great eunuch at the end of the Qing Dynasty, was buried here, which is all a later story.

Eunuchs who leave the palace in old age tend to live here for the rest of their lives, so there will be some eunuchs who live in cemeteries.

Ordinary cemeteries or mass graves can be cloudy and air-conditioned even during the day. But this Zhongguan tomb does not have a trace of cemetery feeling, it is surrounded by ancestral halls, temples, houses and mansions, and there is not a single mound of sealed soil in sight.

Murong looked at the eunuch beside him, and the eunuch seemed to be saying, "It's an eye-opener!"

Murong didn't pay attention to the eunuch, and saw him go directly to an old mansion and knock on the door.

"Zheng Ye! Zheng Ye! The eunuch shouted.

From time to time, an old hunchbacked old eunuch opened the door and came out, this old eunuch had silver snow, his face was full of knife marks, he looked like he was older than Zheng Yiwan, his eyes were swollen as if he couldn't open them, and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Zheng Ye! It's me! Come, King! The one who came this morning! ”

The old eunuch touched the back of his head and thought for a while and said, "Oh! I remember! ”

The old eunuch's hoarse voice sounded extremely uncomfortable, he glanced at Murong behind Wang Lai, and then his eyes widened and asked, "Why is this brocade guard here?" ”

"Zheng Ye allows me to introduce!" Wang Lai raised his hand and stretched out to Murong, "This is the Jinyi Guard's commander who commanded Murong Wuji!" Let's investigate the case! ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed at the old eunuch and said, "My lord, this is Zheng Ye!" The old man in the palace has been here for the elderly since the first year of Chenghua! ”

Murong didn't look down on any senior eunuchs at all, and asked bluntly, "Where is Zhang Bao's grave?" ”

This old eunuch used to be a well-known figure in the palace, and even if he had been retiring for the past few years, he was visited from time to time. Hearing that Murong was so rude, it was inevitable that there was fire in his heart, but he didn't dare to attack because of Murong's identity.

"My lord, come with me!" The old eunuch closed the door and led the two to a small alley.

This alley is lined with ancestral halls of mansions, and the back of these houses is very deep.

"Zhang Bao, this kid has been brought by me when he enters the palace, and he is not angry like Zheng Yiwan's kid, so Zheng Yiwan has become a leading eunuch, this kid is not blessed!"

Zheng Ye sighed and said.

Murong thought in his heart: Zheng Yiwan is also fifty or sixty years old, since Zheng Yiwan entered the palace with him, then this old eunuch is seventy or eighty years old.

Murong thought again: His surname is Zheng, and Zheng Yiwan is also surnamed Zheng, so it seems that he has a lot to do with him.

After walking for a while, there was a pile of graves behind this house, and it turned out that behind this house was the tomb of Zhongguan.

The old eunuch led the two to Zhang Bao's grave, Murong just saw that there was no tombstone in a tomb bag, he sneered: "How can such a tomb prove that it is Zhang Bao's tomb, are you teasing me?" ”

Murong squinted at the old eunuch, and the old eunuch smiled sadly, laughing extremely ugly: "Hehehehe...... This grave is here! Whether adults believe it or not, our family can't be decided! ”

Murong also sneered: "Then I have to dig the grave and inspect it!" ”

Wang Lai let out an "oops" and stepped forward to stop him: "My lord, I can't do it!" Zhang Ye has just entered the earth, and he has not yet enjoyed a moment of tranquility and cannot be disturbed! After all, the dead are great! ”

Murong said coldly: "Jinyi Wei has always dealt with the dead...... and was about to dig a grave, but was grabbed by the wrist of the old eunuch.

Murong suddenly felt an extremely powerful internal force wandering in his body, and he was suddenly shocked: this old eunuch seems to be a master with such a powerful internal strength!

Murong was looking at the old eunuch with murderous aura in his eyes. The body slowly accumulated, and a strong internal force that suddenly rose from the middle collided with it, and it was stalemate.

Wang Lai saw that the two of them had wrong faces, and was about to step forward to dissuade them, but was instantly stunned to the ground by the force of the two of them colliding with each other.

The old eunuch laughed miserably: "Murong Wuji! It's amazing! ”

Murong was shocked: Under such a powerful internal force struggle, this old eunuch could still speak and laugh, and his skill was so deep that Murong could not imagine it.

"The old man was originally a martial arts master!" Murong replied.

The internal force of the two became stronger and stronger, from the inside to the outside gradually, gradually, the mound of sealed soil beside them was flattened with a bang, and Wang Lai was shocked and rolled a few times.

"Thank you!" Murong suddenly withdrew his internal strength and ran towards the grave.

I saw that the tomb was empty, and not even the shadow of the coffin was gone. Murong knew that he was being teased, and when he looked back, he saw that the old eunuch had disappeared.

Murong was furious in his heart, and he couldn't find half a figure in the tomb, and even the king on the ground didn't know where to go, so it should have been rescued by the old eunuch.

Suddenly, there was a hoarse voice from the empty graveyard, it was the voice of the old eunuch: "Commander! ”

"Where are you?" Murong knew that this was the kung fu of thousands of miles of sound transmission, and with his strong internal force, he sent out his voice from his chest.

"Our family is advised to command your lordship! This matter of the concubine, adults should not pay attention to it! Concubine Gong is not the only person involved behind this, and it will never be the only one person, I hope you are interested! ”

"What if I insist on looking it out!" Murong Dao.

"This time, the emperor is not necessarily on your side! You have only one way to die, and you will never recover! ”

"Then I don't believe in evil!"

"You can get out of this Zhongguan grave first!"

Murong was still asking, but the voice became more and more ethereal, and gradually disappeared......

Murong spun around in place, only to find that the heaven and earth here suddenly changed color, and suddenly the yin wind gusted, and the piercing cold hit his whole body. He realized that he had entered a circle......

"Sure enough, the person who came was not good!" Murong muttered.

He knew that this time the magic circle was extremely tricky, and he was not completely sure that he would break out of the formation. He walked dozens of back and forth in this grave circle, but still couldn't find a way out, and his heart was very anxious.
