Chapter 229: Is It Wrong?

The first person to come to visit Hengyue was Concubine Wen.

Concubine Wen sighed: "I was very surprised to hear about this in the morning, how did I go out of the water?" It's so close to you, no wonder you're sick with fear. ā€

"It's my sister who is useless, I was frightened last night, and the wind blew again, and I got up early and had ......a headache and a tightness in my chest," Hengyue said, sighing.

Concubine Wen said: "You are still pregnant, you are already weak, how can you stand so much?" Let's lie down now, this morning is really scary......"

After Concubine Wen left, it was Concubine Cheng who came.

She said the same thing when she came in, but she confessed for Concubine Jing: "The second princess had a cough last night, because of the matter of the virtuous concubine, what she is most afraid of in the palace now is coughing...... She has to take care of the children again, and she is afraid that she will be sick and give you ......"

"Please also ask my sister to help me go to see the second princess, I'm fine here, just rest for a few days." Hengyue said gently.

Concubine Cheng nodded: "It's okay, you rest more." ā€

Obviously, she, like Concubine Wen, didn't know about Gu Meiren.

Shangguan Zheng temporarily concealed the news of Gu Meiren's death, and the palace people present last night were reminded one by one, and they were all told to keep their mouths shut and not to speak out.

So normally, the concubine should not know about Gu Meiren.

Whether it is a concubine or a concubine sincerely, the performance is very natural, and there is no stagnation when it comes to the matter of going to the water.

Either they don't know anything about the ancient beauty, or they ...... It's also too well disguised.

Hengyue took a sip of water and waited for the next visitor.

Expected and unexpected, the good concubine who came.

For some reason, she looked a little haggard, she had just been reprimanded by the emperor about the matter of Gu Meiren, her face was not very good, she came and left in a hurry, and she didn't say a few words to Hengyue.

Hengyue couldn't see if something was wrong with her, so she could only press it for the time being.

After that, Lan Concubine, Xin Jieyu and others also came to see her, but they just sat down and left, Hengyue had the intention to test her words, but she didn't see anything.

"What does the master think?" Midori asked.

Hengyue frowned and shook her head gently: "I can't see it yet, wait a minute." ā€

Lu Liu was puzzled: "What are you waiting for, master?" ā€

Hengyue still just shook her head.

She felt that Concubine Jing should come.

Although she has only been friends for two days, Concubine Jing's intelligence should not be underestimated, and Gu Meiren was originally her person, and now that she is dead, she can't know nothing.

When it was dark, Hengyue finally waited for the person he wanted to wait.

Concubine Jing looked hurried, but she was wearing the clothes of a palace maid, and she lowered her head, and the palace maid who accompanied her was panicked, but she could barely hold on.

"Why is my sister dressed like this?" Hengyue was surprised.

Concubine Jing shook her head: "I don't want people to know that I've been here." ā€

"Sister, Mo is not guarding...... Concubine Cheng? Hengyue guessed carefully, slightly shocked in her heart.

After Concubine Jing was silent, she said with a little difficulty: "Last night...... The one who dragged the ancient beauty away from the courtyard was Youxia. ā€

It's summer, that's the palace maid next to Concubine Cheng.

Hengyue couldn't help but be startled, straightened up, and then looked at Concubine Jing with a little doubt: "Sister knows that something happened to Gu Meiren?" ā€

Concubine Jing's eyelashes trembled for a moment, and she still said, "I know, Gu Meiren...... I'm afraid I'm no longer alive. ā€

Hengyue slowly relaxed her body and didn't say anything, just looked at Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing closed her eyes: "I know that the emperor was shocked when you walked near here last night, and he remembered the ...... Xia he saw before going to bed."

"Taking advantage of the fact that no one is paying attention, I went to the courtyard where Gu Meiren lived to take a sneak peek......"

Concubine Jing's pupils constricted, obviously remembering something terrible, "Although the blood in a place has been hastily cleaned up, but, I can see it, I can see it......"

"So when Concubine Cheng invited her sister to come over, did her sister refuse?" Hengyue asked softly.

Concubine Jing nodded lightly and covered her face again: "I don't know if it's her, but I'm really scared ......"

"Then, didn't my sister want to go over and tell the emperor? After all, Gu Meiren is a big living person, and she suddenly disappeared......"

Hengyue continued to watch Concubine Jing's reaction, but Concubine Jing's reaction was flawless, and she whispered while trembling, "I don't dare...... I—I have no evidence, and it's not something that involves such human lives......"

"Well, sister, don't be afraid, I know about this, and I will find a way with my sister." Hengyue said soothingly.

Concubine Jing covered her face with her hands, shook her head, and muttered, "How can this be, how can this be...... She has no grievances and no enmity with Gu Meiren, why should she ...... like this?"

"Perhaps, my sister is wrong?" Hengyue asked tentatively, "Concubine Liang came in the morning, I saw her look hurried, her face haggard, maybe ......"

"Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm wrong!" Concubine Jing immediately said, she sat there in a daze, muttering to herself, "Yes, I must have read it wrong, it's ......"
