"Hmm." Lu Jiuyuan's face was a little ugly.

"Who is it?" After Tao Yao was taken aback, he hurriedly asked.

"It's a eunuch next to the emperor." Lu Jiuyuan said.

Tao Yao was silent.

It turned out to be a eunuch.

"Could it be that this eunuch committed suicide in fear of sin?" For a moment, she asked with a frown.

In fact, if the eunuch was good, he mentioned the prince's birthday in front of the emperor, and others wouldn't think much about it, but on the contrary, he committed suicide.

If there is nothing in it, a fool will not believe it.

It's a pity that this eunuch is dead, and it is impossible to get it out of his mouth, who instructed him.

"Well, it should be." Lu Jiuyuan bowed.

Tao Yao sat down at the table, propped his chin and said, "Then what should I do next?" The only clue was also broken. ”

Lu Jiuyuan shook his head, "It's not clear yet, but I have someone secretly investigate who the eunuch had dealings with before he died." ”

Tao Yao thought for a while and asked, "If Wanrun can wake up, will it be the prince's crime and be cleared away?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan paused, "Although it is not enough to wash up, if Wan Jieyu can wake up, then at least ask the emperor again, and the emperor should be open to the prince."

But the problem is that Wan Jieyu hasn't woken up yet. ”

"What the hell is wrong with Wanrun? Was she sick, or was she poisoned? If it is poisoned, why can't the doctors find out? Tao Yao looked sad.

"Although the imperial doctors can't find out, it should not be life-threatening, otherwise the prince will not only be sent to prison." Lu Jiuyuan said.

"It would be nice if I could enter the palace and see Wanrun." Tao Yao said.

"What can I do when I see it, the imperial doctor is helpless." Lu Jiuyuan frowned slightly.

"Yes, we don't know how to heal, but maybe we can ask something useful from her maid Butterfly Leaf." Tao Yao said, "Also, I always feel that this matter has to do with the imperial concubine...... I can't get rid of it, but unfortunately there is no evidence. ”

Lu Jiuyuan was stunned, "Do you suspect the imperial concubine?" ”

Tao Yao's face pale, "Except for her, I can't think of who did it." After all, so many princes have been demoted and killed one after another, and now the crown prince has also been thrown into prison, only ...... Heng'er, it's fine. ”

Of course, she didn't expect Heng'er to be bad, on the contrary, Heng'er was innocent, and she also liked Heng'er very much, but Rong Niang was ruthless, she was able to abandon her without abandoning her back then, and she had the heart to harm her last year, so there was nothing she could do.

"Your suspicions are not unreasonable, in fact, Gu Changqing and I also suspect her, but there is no evidence." Lu Jiuyuan said.

Tao Yao nodded, "Yes, the only eunuch who has anything to do with this matter is also dead." By the way, in addition to looking for the clue of the eunuch, did you send someone to the East Palace to investigate?

For example, the box that suddenly appeared on the soft couch. I have been to the East Palace, and the East Palace is heavily guarded, especially the prince's bedroom, and people who are waiting for leisure cannot enter at all, let alone put such a box quietly on the soft couch in the prince's house.

I think that there must be a mole in the East Palace, and this mole may still be someone around the prince. ”

"Have you been to the East Palace?" Lu Jiuyuan looked at her thoughtfully.

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had leaked his mouth.

She sneered: "This is last year, when the imperial concubine held a chrysanthemum banquet, I got lost, and before I knew it, I walked to the East Palace......

"Still trying to hide it from me?" Lu Jiuyuan suddenly slapped the table, startling Tao Yao.

She stared at him with wide eyes and stammered, "You, you murder me?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan frowned, "Don't change the topic, explain honestly." ”

"I didn't lie to you, what are you honest? You're still trying me as a prisoner? Tao Yao complained.

Lu Jiuyuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "Even if you don't say it, I can guess something, did the imperial concubine calculate you at that chrysanthemum banquet, so you went to the East Palace to ask the prince for help?"

Also, you suddenly brought Wanrun into the palace to take revenge on the imperial concubine, is it also related to this matter? ”

Tao Yao "chuckled" in his heart, this man is really keen.

Now, there is no point in hiding it anymore, so she told the story of that time.

After Lu Jiuyuan heard this, his face was gloomy and ugly.

When he was away, Tao Yao actually encountered this kind of thing.

If it weren't for her cleverness, I'm afraid she would still be under house arrest in the palace.

Tao Yao saw that his face was ugly, and he was uneasy, so he pulled his sleeve and said: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, but you were not in Beijing at that time, and when I saw you again, it had been so long, and I felt that there was no need to mention it again, which made you worry." ”

When Lu Jiuyuan heard this, his face softened a little, took her over, and sat on her lap, "Next time there is such a thing, don't hide it anymore." ”

"Got it." Tao Yao obediently responded.

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Wu Ze reported outside the door: "Guogong, when his subordinates were ordered to investigate in the East Palace, they found a crazy palace maid, she kept muttering the name of Madame in her mouth, saying that Madame's words are not enough, and she said that she would take her to Yuming Lou for refreshments, but she has not fulfilled it, she cursed Madame for drinking water and being choked, and biting her tongue when eating......"

Tao Yao: "......"

Lu Jiuyuan's face sank, "Presumptuous!" ”

Wu Ze sneered: "When the subordinates saw that she was disrespectful to her wife, they took her out of the East Palace and wanted to teach her a lesson. ”

When Tao Yao heard this, he hurriedly walked out, "What is the name of the palace maid?" ”

"The subordinate asked someone else and said that her name was Bichun." Uze replied.

"And what about her now?" Tao Yao hurriedly asked.

"If Madame wants to see her, her subordinates will go and bring her at once." Uze Road.

"Then you go." Tao Yao said.

Uze went down quickly.

Lu Jiuyuan walked out and asked, "What's wrong with the palace maid?" ”

"That palace maid is a kind palace maid I met when I went to the East Palace to find the prince last year, if she hadn't helped me find the prince, I wouldn't have been able to leave the palace smoothly at that time." Tao Yao explained.

Bi Chun was quickly brought up.

When he saw her, Tao Yao almost didn't recognize her.

When she saw Bi Chun last year, Bi Chun was a little fat, but now she is very thin, and she is unkempt, and her dress is dirty.

"How could she be like this?" Tao Yao frowned and asked.

"The subordinates investigated in the East Palace, and accidentally found her, at that time, she was standing in the pond catching fish, and her mouth was still chanting your name, and the subordinates felt that something was wrong, so they brought her out." Uze replied.

After Tao Yao heard this, he stepped forward and brushed away the hair sticking to Bichun's face.

Seeing Tao Yao, her eyes rolled, and then he smiled, "It's you, you owe me a snack, bring it to ...... now"
