Yixuan never eats these snacks on weekdays, but Chang Yue personally fed them, and he still swallowed them obediently.

Seeing that Chang Yue was eating happily, Yixuan actually brushed his lips and smiled for no reason, he was afraid that she would choke, so he intimately poured her a cup of tea.

But Chang Yue suddenly asked, "By the way, there's something I've always wanted to ask you." ”

"What?"

He handed the tea to Chang Yue, who gulped and drank it before saying, "It's Wei Zhong, did he really stumble and fall into the lake?" ”

Yixuan knew that she asked this to find out the secret at the bottom of the lake, so he explained the truth to her: "Wei Gui was thrown into the lake by someone with his hands and feet tied, because when the body was recovered, Wei Zhong's hands and feet were still tied with ropes. ”

The reason why it is declared to the public is that it is a misstep, but it is just to calm the quiet crowd, so as not to involve some people who should not be involved.

Chang Yue nodded thoughtfully, she had long expected Wei Zhong's death, but there were many ways to kill Wei Zhong, why did she throw him into that lake?

Thinking of this, Chang Yue put down the half-bitten pastry in her hand, mysteriously approached Yixuan, blinked her clear eyes, and asked him in a low voice, "Did your queen mother send someone to make it?" ”

She thought that since Queen Zhou could raise evil things, she would definitely be accompanied by some people who would be on the sidelines.

If Empress Zhou deliberately sent someone to throw Wei Zhong into the lake in the Imperial Garden, maybe Empress Zhou would know the secret at the bottom of the lake, so that she would have the direction to investigate.

Yixuan guessed her thoughts, but said with a straight face: "Wei Zhong's death has nothing to do with the queen mother. ”

This is a fact, he asked Pei Yuanshu to check, and after Concubine Rong beat Wei Zhong that day, Wei Zhong has been lying in the Internal Affairs Mansion and has never gone out at all, and no one in Zhaohua Palace has ever entered the Internal Affairs Mansion.

As for who tied Wei Zhong up and threw him into the lake, Pei Yuanshu, who came to solve the case quickly, didn't find a clue for a while.

Because the ropes on Wei Zhong's hands and feet were things in the affairs of the internal government, and the other party acted cautiously, he did not leave any clues in the internal affairs office, and even the palace people who were on duty that night did not see any suspicious people.

As a result, Wei Zhong's death has become an unsolved case to this day.

Chang Yue said: "The person who killed Wei Zhong must have something to do with the secret at the bottom of the lake. ”

In the past few days, she has checked a lot of books, but she has not found any secret techniques related to the bottom of the lake, which shows that she can trap so many powerful ghosts and souls at the bottom of the lake, and people can't find out the slightest bit of yin qi, the other party must be a master, and she also uses a spell that Chang Yue has never been involved in.

Yixuan patted her hand and signaled her not to look for the bottom of the lake for the time being, after all, her body had just recovered: "I will let Pei Yuanshu continue to investigate this matter, you are just right, don't worry." ”

"Okay!" Chang Yue impatiently agreed, she can't solve the secret of the bottom of the lake now, but she can't do anything, it's better to recuperate and wait until her spirit is restored.

"One more thing." Yixuan opened his mouth leisurely and said, "Yan Bei has already checked out, the fire in the cold palace before was set by Wei Zhong. ”

Chang Yue tightened her eyebrows, and it was Wei Zhong again.

I only heard Yixuan continue: "And it was not my mother who caused Xu Meiren to enter the cold palace at the beginning, but Concubine Rong." ”

Thinking about it all these years, Queen Zhou was not favored in the palace, and how could she be angry because of a little Xu beauty.

It was Concubine Rong, who saw that the emperor had been in and out of Xu Meiren's bedroom one after another in those days, and thought that the emperor had moved his mind about Xu Meiren and no longer favored her alone, so she became jealous.

So the grandmother beside her helped her with a little trick, so that Xu Meiren mistakenly received the brocade forging that should have belonged to Queen Zhou in the internal affairs.

It's also to blame that Xu Meiren's brain is not good, she is a little beauty, which round she used such a good thing, she thought that the emperor was very kind to her and specially rewarded her.

It was precisely because of this passover that Xu Meiren was beaten into the cold palace by the emperor.

From beginning to end, Empress Zhou never participated in this matter, but Xu Meiren thought that she was killed by Empress Zhou when she entered the cold palace.

As for the fire in the cold palace later, it was because Wei Zhong was afraid that one day Xu Meiren would turn over, if she came back to her senses and confessed that he deliberately gave her the batch of brocade forging, then he would definitely not be able to keep the post of head of the Internal Affairs Office.

Therefore, Wei Zhong directly set fire to the cold palace and burned it clean.

Thinking about it, Wei Zhong was a treacherous and sleek person, he sometimes flattered Concubine Rong, sometimes flattered Queen Zhou, and the main thing was not to offend both sides, and for his own future, burning a few people was just a trivial matter for him.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Chang Yue only felt that this Xu Meiren was just a poor person in the harem.

That night, Chang Yue went to the cold palace and told Xu Meiren all the truth, and she also brought two monks from Nanhua Temple to let them transcend those unjustly dead souls in the cold palace, so that they could enter reincarnation as soon as possible.

Xu Mei said goodbye to Chang Yue, if it weren't for Chang Yue's help, she probably would never know how she died.

Before leaving, she also said bitterly to Chang Yue: "I am very close to you, so I will talk to you about this, the harem is a bottomless abyss that kills people without seeing blood, you are still young, if you have the opportunity, you must stay away from the harem, don't be trapped in the cage of the deep palace." ”

After Chang Yue returned to the East Palace, she was also seriously thinking about Xu Meiren's words.

In fact, before she married to the north, she just wanted to stay in the south to be a carefree princess, loved by her father and queen mother, and had a few royal brothers who also spoiled her.

If she has nothing to do, she will go out to exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts, if the palace is boring, she can also go back to Wujiguan and play with her brothers all over the mountains.

This kind of day is what she wants to live.

However, as a princess, she shouldered her own mission, and the north asked to marry, and she had to marry for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Fortunately, she came to the Northern Palace, although there have always been strange things in the evil sect, but Yixuan is still good to her.

Moreover, they are also tied to marriage, it is impossible to separate in this life, as for whether she will be trapped in this deep palace for the rest of her life, that is a later story, she doesn't want to think about it for the time being, anyway, if she comes, she must first have a good state of mind in order to live a chic life, even if she is really trapped in the deep palace, she will not be depressed.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing that she came back from the cold palace, she was a little absent-minded, and Yixuan, who was lying on the bed and pretending to be out of her soul, came over and asked.

At this time, Chang Yue was lying on the couch, and there was a book about strange things in front of her, but she didn't move a page.

Yixuan squatted in front of the couch, staring at her with a pair of deep eyes.

Chang Yue met his eyes, and did not beat around the bush, but asked directly: "If you go to the emperor in the future, will you also have three palaces and six courts?" ”
