"Witch Doll?" Lu Yuning stood up as if she was very shocked, and asked in a bit of a panic, "So what's going on now?" ”

Zhou Man bowed his head and replied: "The little one wanted to take the thing down, but the speed of the little dog was too fast, and the little one didn't pay attention to him and ran out of the yard, and after the little one chased out, the thing had already fallen into the hands of the grandmother next to the eldest princess." ”

"When the little one came to find the master, Concubine Jing seemed to have taken the doll to the Queen Mother's Shou'an Palace."

Hearing this, the concubine secretly curled the corners of her mouth, turned her head and frowned at Lu Yuning and said, "How can your Linglong Pavilion have such a thing?" Witchcraft is a big taboo, how can you do such a thing? ”

Lu Yuning listened to the words of the concubine, and couldn't help but show a hint of ridicule on her face, "What does the concubine mean by this?" The concubine is the cousin of the concubine, doesn't the concubine believe in the concubine? ”

"Why are you so excited?" The concubine took a sip of the teacup, and said in a good mood: "The clear is self-pure, the turbidity is self-turbid, if my sister hasn't done it, why don't I tell me, if my sister does it, do I believe that the emperor and the queen mother can let you go?" ”

The art of witchcraft was prevalent for a long time in the previous dynasty, and before the fall of the previous dynasty, the art of witchcraft in the harem flourished, and finally even spread to the previous dynasty, and many loyal ministers and good ministers were involved, resulting in death, which can be regarded as a reason for the demise of the previous dynasty.

After the founding emperor of Dayong established a new dynasty, he was also very afraid of witchcraft, and ordered that witchcraft in the harem was strictly forbidden, and once discovered, he would not be spared.

Lu Yuning looked at the concubine and said, "The concubine naturally hasn't done it, but the concubine's Linglong Pavilion has inexplicably appeared a witch doll, and it was so coincidentally found by the eldest princess's puppy, didn't the concubine Niangniang think that someone wanted to frame the concubine, or someone was targeting our Zhongyong Marquis Mansion?" ”

"The concubine is the girl of the loyal and brave Hou Mansion, in the eyes of the emperor and the queen mother, the words and deeds of the concubine may represent the Hou Mansion, and the witch doll was found in the Linglong Pavilion of the concubine, this thing is not good, but it is very likely that the Hou Mansion and the concubine Niangniang will be implicated."

"How so?" The concubine didn't care much and said, "You are you, and the Hou Mansion is the Hou Mansion?" The emperor is a virtuous monarch, the loyal and brave marquis has always been loyal and patriotic, guarding the desolate northern frontier for my Dayong Town, and fighting against the fierce Northern Desert people from time to time. ”

Lu Yuning thought to herself, the concubine originally thought like this, and felt that the emperor still used the Shangzhong Yonghou Mansion, even if she was punished for abusing the witchcraft technique, it would not implicate the Hou Mansion and her, so she thought of using the witchcraft to give her no chance to turn over.

"I hope it's as the concubine said!" Lu Yuning said lightly: "The concubine has to go back to deal with this matter, so don't bother the mother first, and the concubine will leave." ”

The concubine nodded, "Sister, go back first." ”

The Queen Mother is still receiving the maidens at this time, and Concubine Jing may still be waiting after she passes, and after the Empress Dowager meets Concubine Jing after meeting the maidens, she will definitely summon them soon.

Coming out of Zhaoyang Palace, Lu Yuning asked Zhou Mandao: "How was the witch doll discovered?" ”

Zhou Man replied: "The villain and Chen An were originally working in the yard, and the dog raised by the eldest princess ran in, and after the dog came in, he ran straight to Chen An's room and took out the witch doll from the pot of chrysanthemums. ”

Lu Yuning remembered the vague aroma she had smelled from the witch doll last night, and guessed that it might be that fragrance had a special attraction to the dog raised by the eldest princess.

"What about Chen An?" Lu Yuning asked.

The little one tied him up and tied him up in the room, and Qingzhi watched it.

Lu Yuning nodded and didn't ask anything more.

Back at Linglong Pavilion, Lu Yuning went to see Chen An.

"Chen An, tell me well, how could there be a witch doll hidden in that pot of flowers in your room?"

Chen An looked at Lu Yuning and said with a look of injustice: "Master, the little one is wronged, and the little one really doesn't know why there are witch dolls hidden in the flower pot." ”

"You don't know?" Lu Yuning had a calm face and said coldly: "I handed over the pot of flowers to you to take care of, don't you even know that there are things buried in it?" ”

Chen An shook his head and said, "The little one really doesn't know." ”

Chen An was actually very confused from what happened to this point, he didn't understand why there were witch dolls in the flower pots in his house when he had buried things in the yard.

Baoqing only asked him to bury things in the four corners of the courtyard of Linglong Pavilion before, and he didn't tell him about the rest of the matter, and he didn't know if the dog that suddenly ran into Linglong Pavilion was arranged by them.

And since the eldest princess's puppy found the doll in his house, he was tied up by Zhou Man, and now he doesn't know if the witch dolls he buried in the yard are still there.

"Do you know what's written on that doll?" Lu Yuning asked.

Chen An said: "This ...... The little one didn't know that the dog was too fast, and the little one hadn't realized that it had run out of the yard. ”

Lu Yuning glanced at Chen An again, as if she was weighing whether Chen An was telling the truth or a lie.

After a while, Lu Yuning left a sentence, "You can go back and talk to the emperor and the queen mother about these words." He turned and left.

Chen An looked at the back of Lu Yuning leaving, and lowered his eyes to hide the uneasiness in his eyes.

Lu Yuning sat in the room, waiting for the summons from the Queen Mother's side, but what she didn't expect was that the Queen Mother did not let people summon her, but came directly to Linglong Pavilion, along with the emperor and Concubine Jing.

"The concubines have seen the emperor, the queen mother, and the concubine." Lu Yuning saluted.

"Lu Jieyu, get up." The Queen Mother said with a cold tone: "Does Lu Jieyu know what the mourning family is talking about?" ”

Lu Yuning bowed her head and said respectfully: "The concubine heard that the people in the palace of the concubine said that it was a puppy raised by the eldest princess, and she found the witch doll from the concubine's exquisite pavilion. ”

After answering, Lu Yuning continued: "Please ask the queen mother and the emperor to believe in the concubine, the concubine really didn't do anything like witchcraft, and the concubine doesn't know how the concubine has a witch doll here." ”

"Of course the mourning family believes that Lu Jieyu, you didn't do anything like witchcraft." The Queen Mother looked at Lu Yuning and said, "Lu Jieyu doesn't know whose name and birth date are written on that witch doll?" ”

Lu Yuning said: "Back to the Queen Mother, the concubine asked the people who served in the palace of the concubine, the puppy raised by the eldest princess was very fast and sensitive, and they really didn't see what was written on the witch doll." ”
