Chapter 13: A game within a game

Even the maid wouldn't let her take it.

Ye Fei's face was not wavering, and he handed Yu Ying and Hairpin a look, and said, "That's right, then you can go first." ”

After Ask Ying and Hairpin Hong left, the maid continued to walk forward with her.

Walking into the corridor and turning three corners, the maid stopped in front of a room and said, "The eldest princess is inside, Miss Ye, please." ”

Ye Scarlet narrowed her eyes, pushed open the door and walked in.

The moment I entered, there was a strong smell of blood.

Immediately afterwards, the little maid shouted loudly: "Kill, Doctor Ye kills!" ”

Leaf Crimson: ......

She knew there was no such thing as a good thing.

But why did the eldest princess harm her, she didn't offend the eldest princess.

Is it because of Yan Jifan?

Except for Yan Jifan, she couldn't think of a second reason.

Sure enough, he enjoyed the benefits of relying on Yan Jifan, and he also had to bear the corresponding responsibilities.

"What happened, who killed someone?"

The maid's voice seemed to be still lingering in Ye Scarlet's ears, and Song Yu rushed in with a group of people.

It came really fast.

Ye Crimson's eyes condensed.

Now that she has stepped into this game, she has already thought of a way out.

It's funny to think about it, using the clumsy excuse of killing people to frame her for a trick.

"Ye Scarlet, Lord Yan is here, you dare to kill people openly, do you have a royal law in your eyes!" Song Yu was indiscriminate, and had already put the murderous hat on Ye Scarlet's head.

Ye Scarlet glanced at the people who came in, and said unhurriedly: "I didn't kill this person." ”

"Hmph, which murderer in this world would take the initiative to admit that he killed someone, and when he was in prison and put on the torture instrument, he would naturally admit it."

Song Yu's face was filled with a smug smile, and he instructed the guards he brought: "Come on, take Ye Scarlet away!" ”

Ye Crimson did not move, nor did she justify.

She's waiting.

"Wait a minute!" From the back of the crowd, Yan Jifan's voice was deep.

Everyone subconsciously got out of the way.

Yan Jifan, the fifth prince, the eldest princess and others walked in.

"What's going on?" Yan Jifan asked again, and at the same time looked straight at Ye Crimson, who was cut by the guards.

When the two guards saw Yan Jifan's eyes, they didn't wait for Yan Jifan to say anything, and took the initiative to let go of Ye Scarlet.

Song Yu's face sank, and he seemed to salute Yan Jifan respectfully, but in fact, his face was full of disdain: "Lord Yan, the lower officials know that Ye Scarlet is your person, but the certification is undocumented, you yourself are Dali Siqing, it's not good to ignore the law like this, right?" ”

Today is the king of heaven Lao Tzu is here, this person was killed by Ye Scarlet, isn't it!

The guests heard Song Yu say that Ye Scarlet was Yan Jifan's person, and their faces were wonderful for a while, and their eyes stopped back and forth between Ye Scarlet and Yan Jifan

Yan Jifan's face was expressionless, and his tone was unwavering: "Is this how you ask about cases on weekdays?" The facts have not yet been asked, who do you say is the murderer, who is? ”

"You ......" Song Yu was choked for a moment, but still said stiffly: "It seems that Lord Yan is still going to shield the murderer." ”

Yan Jifan tugged at the corners of his mouth, glanced at Song Yu, and said unhurriedly: "What you said is also right, after all, Doctor Ye is the official's person, and the official should avoid suspicion, this is the eldest princess's mansion, so it's better to let the eldest princess ask." ”

Who are Yan Jifan's people?

Ye Scarlet glared at Yan Jifan angrily, Song Yu didn't mean to say this, even if Yan Jifan joined in the fun.

Yan Jifan didn't see Ye Crimson's eyes, and only arched his hand towards the eldest princess: "Please also ask the eldest princess to decide." ”

"What Lord Yan said is reasonable, since the matter happened in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, the palace has the power to dispose of it. Please also ask you to be a witness, if the palace is not properly handled, how about asking Lord Song to deal with it? ”

The eldest princess said and looked at Song Yu.

Song Yu didn't dare to say a word, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "The eldest princess is serious, and the lower officials just want to share the worries of the eldest princess." ”

"Okay, let's ask Lord Song to watch from the side." The eldest princess sat down unceremoniously.

Song Yu secretly glared at Yan Jifan fiercely, but he was helpless.

"Doctor Ye, many cases during this period of time can only be solved by you, and this palace has only heard that today is about you, and I also asked this palace to take a look at your ability," the eldest princess looked at Ye Crimson.

Ye Scarlet stepped forward and said slowly: "Eldest Princess Xie, but the lower official is a suspect in this matter, and even if it is the truth, it is easy to arouse suspicion, so it is better to ask Lord Song to conduct an autopsy with the lower official." ”

The eldest princess was slightly surprised when she heard her words, but she still said, "Yes." ”

Song Yu walked to Ye Scarlet's side with a cold face.

Ye Feise ignored Song Yu, but stepped forward to look at the deceased.

The deceased was a maid, with no obvious external injuries, but her lips were blue, and the deceased's hands scratched blood marks on the floor, and it seemed that she was not peacefully dead.

"You are ruthless, you don't know what poison you use, and death will make people so painful." Song Yu also saw that the maid's fingernails were scratched up.

Ye Scarlet didn't pay attention to him, but hurried up to the eldest princess: "Dare to ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who is the deceased?" ”

The eldest princess glanced at the maid beside her.

The maid understood, stepped forward and said, "This is the maid Qiao'er of the flower room." ”

It's a maid in a flower room.

She didn't know either, and using such a maid to frame her not only didn't look clever, but also stupid.

After pondering for a moment, she still felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface, and it was good to solve them quickly.

"Everyone, please see, the hands of this deceased, the blood on her hands has dried up, and her body has been cold and stiff, which shows that she definitely did not die in a short time. And I've been at the banquet all the time, she's the maid of the flower room, I have nothing to do with her, why should I murder her? ”

The eldest princess asked the maid to come forward and touch the maid's body, and after touching it, the maid said, "The corpse is indeed cold and stiff, and it did not die in a short time." ”

Hearing this, Yan Jifan's brows also furrowed, he looked at Ye Scarlet, and saw that Ye Scarlet's thin eyebrows were also frowning slightly.

Things are different, this girl is not the point!

He realized immediately.

"Oh no, no, Miss Xi is poisoned!" A maid ran in with a loud shout.

So that's it!

The real target of this group of people is Xi Shuqing!

Ye Scarlet and Yan Jifan glanced at each other, and they both realized this.

Song Yu stepped forward and grabbed Ye Scarlet's hand, sneered and said, "It turns out that what you really want to kill is Miss Xi, then it makes sense, you kill this maid in advance, attract everyone's attention, create an alibi, and then you poison Miss Xi!" ”

"Lord Song, please be cautious before you have evidence!" Ye Scarlet shook off Song Yu vigorously, and turned to the eldest princess and said, "Your Highness, please allow the lower officials to go and see Miss Xi first." ”

"You go!" The eldest princess said without thinking about it.

With the permission of the eldest princess, Ye Crimson did not delay, spread her legs and ran in the direction of the previous banquet.

Maybe Xi Shuqing can still be saved!

Song Yu's heart froze, and he couldn't help but say to the eldest princess: "Your Highness, don't believe the wrong person, what happened to Miss Xi in the eldest princess's mansion, now the eldest princess doesn't investigate thoroughly, and let the murderer contact the deceased alone, if the concubine and Lord Shoufu ask for guilt in the future, can the eldest princess afford it?" ”

Hearing this, a sneer rolled at the corner of the eldest princess's mouth, and her voice was sonorous: "Whether you can afford it or not is a matter of this palace, and in the end, you can't blame Lord Song, so Lord Song doesn't have to worry about this palace!" ”

After saying that, he shook his sleeves and walked out.

Song Yu saw that he couldn't stop the eldest princess, and said to Yan Jifan: "Lord Yan, the matter has come to this, do you still want to protect Ye Scarlet?" ”

"It's not your turn to put your beak in this official's business."

Yan Jifan coldly threw out a sentence, asked the guards to protect the scene here, and chased after the figure of the eldest princess.

Song Yu's hands at his side were clenched into fists, but he had to grit his teeth and follow.

At this time, Ye Scarlet came to the banquet and saw Xi Shuqing lying unconscious on the ground, his lips were purple.

She chuckled inwardly.

The person behind that should have wanted to target her before he would attack Xi Shuqing.

If Xi Shuqing hadn't come to talk to her, he wouldn't have suffered such a catastrophe.

A burst of guilt rose in her heart, and her steps towards Xi Shuqing were not slow at all, and she probed Xi Shuqing's pulse for the first time.

The pulse is completely gone!

Her heart sank, and she touched Xi Shuqing's neck again.

Fortunately, there is still a faint pulse in the neck, and there is still salvation!

She helped Xi Shuqing to sit up, took out a silver needle in her right hand, and quickly pierced several of Xi Shuqing's big holes.

When she was about to pierce the acupuncture points on the top of Xi Shuqing's head, Song Yu shouted: "What are you doing, it's not enough for you to poison Miss Xi, what else do you want to do!" ”

Now all she has to do is to hurry up and save Xi Shuqing, nothing else matters, so she ignored Song Yu.

"You're getting more and more aware of the rules." Yan Jifan blocked in front of Song Yu like a mountain: "Is it only here that you want to seek justice for Miss Xi?" ”

Song Yu confronted Yan Jifan and sneered: "Ye Scarlet is your person, of course you protect it, you are so dignified Dali Siqing who does not distinguish between public and private, what qualifications do you have to be this Dali Siqing!" ”

"If this official doesn't do this Dali Siqing, it won't be your turn." Yan Jifan's expressionless face showed obvious disdain.

When the two men confronted each other, Ye Scarlet placed Xi Shuqing lying flat on the ground and gave Xi Shuqing cardiac resuscitation.

"See for yourselves what she's doing!" Song Yu shouted and wanted to come forward again.

"Shut up!" The eldest princess finally couldn't bear it anymore, but said coldly to Yan Jifan: "Lord Yan, if you can't control the officials under your own hands, you are indeed guilty of this Dali Temple!" ”

Yan Jifan bowed slightly to the eldest princess, and turned to Song Yu and said, "If you say one more word, this official doesn't mind cutting your tongue!" ”

Looking at Yan Jifan's calm face and murderous gaze, Song Yu shuddered vividly.

He knew that Yan Jifan could do what he said, and his arrogance was suddenly extinguished, and he didn't dare to say a word.

Everyone's eyes fell on Ye Crimson's body.

Although Ye Scarlet has the name of a miracle doctor, this Xi Shuqing looks like he is really dead, no matter how powerful the doctor is, it is impossible to bring him back to life, and this Ye Scarlet doesn't know whether he really wants to save Xi Shuqing or make a show.

Just when everyone was suspicious, Xi Shuqing suddenly coughed, and at the same time spit out a large mouthful of black blood.

Saved!

Ye Scarlet was ecstatic, and quickly pulled out the silver needle inserted in the top of Xi Shuqing's head, and then patted Xi Shuqing's back to give him a smooth breath, and said loudly: "Water!" ”

Immediately, a maid brought water, Ye Scarlet took it and sniffed it first, and then took another sip, and only after feeling that it was okay did he feed it to Xi Shuqing, and said softly: "You rinse your mouth first, and then drink." ”

Xi Shuqing's eyes were still full of confusion, but he still did as he heard Ye Scarlet's words.

After two sips of water, she finally felt a little more relieved.

"What's going on?" She asked.

Ye Scarlet glanced at the wine jug on the table, and his tone sank: "Don't you really remember what happened?" ”
