04 Who doesn't talk about people behind their backs

When Dong Yuanhe saw his daughter's corpse, he naturally cried a lot, which made Sima Lun depressed and upset, and almost fainted.

Luzhu has been in the palace for the longest time, she went out for a big turn, and only returned to the Tianyuan Hall in the evening, and when the sheep was having dinner, she whispered about the situation and rumors around the palace.

"Lord Dong didn't believe that his daughter drowned, so he agreed to the autopsy." The injuries on Luzhu's body were not neat, and Yang Xianrong didn't let her come forward to serve, but just asked Cuixi and Lan Xiang to help set up the dishes and chopsticks and eat a few bites.

Zhang Liang stood lame aside, watching Yang Xianrong only eat some green vegetables, and couldn't help but say out loud: "The queen can eat more minced meat." ”

Hearing this, she immediately remembered Lei Dayong's words that the emperor Sima Zhen told him to eat minced meat when he had no money, and couldn't help but sigh. "I'm tired today, let's eat something simple."

"This bowl of chicken soup is also good." Zhang Liang hoeed a bowl of chicken soup and brought it over.

Yang Xianrong only took a sip and handed it to Lan Xiang, "You drink it." ”

Lan Xiang held the bowl, thanked him, and then quickly drank it.

"Drink some of yourselves, too." Yang Xianrong pointed to the chicken soup, "It tastes good." ”

Cui Xi hurriedly knelt down, and Zhang Lianghoe and Luzhu also knelt down when they saw this.

Yang Xianrong originally wanted them not to do this, but when she saw Cuixi's solemn face, she suddenly thought that now that she was the queen, she couldn't be too casual with these people.

So he made a face, "Green bamboo, go on." ”

"Yes." Lu Zhu knelt on the spot and didn't stand up, "The slave maid and the slave maid Wumei in Concubine Li's palace are fellow villagers, and the relationship is slightly better." She said that Lord Dong's voice was hoarse, and she had to let King Zhao give an explanation for everything. King Zhao said that he wanted to give his family 10,000 taels of gold, but Lord Dong refused to ask for it, saying that someone in the palace must have killed Concubine Li. ”

"Why?" Yang Xianrong frowned.

Lu Zhu's expression was suddenly unnatural, and he glanced at Zhang Lianghoe.

Zhang Lianghoe also glanced at her, grinned, and coughed lightly.

"Hey, let's talk about it." Yang Xianrong obviously felt that this matter was related to him.

Master Dong said that there must be someone in the palace who is jealous of Concubine Li's favor recently, and the emperor often stays in her palace, especially on the emperor's wedding night a few days ago, he went to Concubine Li first, and then came to the queen's side...... cough cough cough ......"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Lu Zhu and Zhang Lianghoe both coughed lightly.

"So, he suspects that Bengong killed Concubine Li?" Yang Xianrong really wanted to roll his eyes, he had just entered the palace, why did he start the palace fight? "Hongu isn't going to kill people right now, right?"

As soon as this sentence came out, even Cui Xi and Lan Xiang began to cough lightly.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough......" As a result, the people who served her to eat all coughed.

She couldn't laugh or cry, and put down the chopsticks in her hand, "Okay, don't cough." What you mean, Bengu understands, but Bengu really doesn't bother to do such a thing. ”

"The queen is quieter." Zhang Lianghoe also knelt down, "There is a lot of blood and rain in the palace, especially the shadow of the abolished queen is still there, and those suspicions are normal." It's just that Lord Dong singled out this matter on the surface, and King Zhao should not be able to handle it. ”

"King Zhao said that he would wait for the results of the work, but Lord Dong did not relentlessly ask Concubine Li to bury the whole palace." Lu Zhu's expression was a little gloomy, "Concubine Li has only been favored again in the past half a year, and there are many maidservants and eunuchs who have just gone to her palace, this time it is really miserable." ”

"There is a debtor and a debtor, why Concubine Li died is still inconclusive, why do so many people be buried with her?" Lan Xiang couldn't help but sigh.

"Actually, it's easy to understand." Zhang Lianghoe analyzed, "Concubine Li is favored, and the one who benefits the most is Lord Dong's family, seeing that Lord Dong's two sons have been promoted to the position of Sanpin Sancai Cavalry Attendant......"

"When did this happen?" Yang Xianrong frowned, she is now the queen, and her eldest brother is the captain of the sixth rank horse, and the rank is not equal.

"It was the day Zhu Mo was demoted." Zhang Lianghoe said vaguely, but Yang Xianrong also understood instantly.

Zhu Mo is just Concubine Li's uncle, and the demotion did not shake the Dong family by half a point, but promoted the official positions of Concubine Li's brothers, this is just Sima Lun's trick of rising and descending secretly.

"So, now the Dong family has grown a lot?"

"Yes, in total, they are a little more powerful than your grandfather's Sun family." Zhang Lianghoe also knelt on the ground, "It is reasonable for Lord Dong to make such trouble. ”

"Understood." Yang Xianrong nodded, "Then let's see what the pretendence says, I'm afraid the palace won't be able to find out anything about this matter." ”

"However, this is a matter from the harem, and you still have to ...... At least symbolically to appease Lord Dong's ......"

"He suspects that Bengong has harmed his daughter......" Yang Xianrong stood up, "and he will yell at Bengong again......"

"Then it depends on what King Zhao means." Zhang Lianghoe was extremely bold, and they all began to speculate about Sima Lun's thoughts, "King Zhao is standing up for the queen's mother, and he will definitely not let Lord Dong make trouble." However, since the matter is in the harem, there still needs to be an explanation. ”

"Understood, let's talk about it when King Zhao comes over." Yang Xianrong pursed his lips, "Actually, why do you want to go to Yingliu Lake to play shakuhachi?" ”

"This is a secret story in the palace." Green bamboo is still a little mysterious, "Legend has it that there is a palace man who is good at playing shakuhachi, and later because he offended the abolition, he committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake." After she died, her resentment did not dissipate, so she became a water ghost in Yingliu Lake, and often came out ......"

"Murder?" Cui Xi clenched her fists.

"Not really." Luzhu hurriedly said, "According to legend, because she is good at playing shakuba-tone rhythm, if someone plays by the lake, they will get her guidance." The emperor likes this, and the concubines in the palace naturally want to learn it, so that they can get the emperor's favor. ”

"So? Concubine Li went over there to practice? Yang Xianrong also asked.

"The slave maid also heard about it." Luzhu became more and more mysterious, "Originally, Concubine Li was not favored, and she was often suppressed after being abolished, so she had no intention of competing for favor." Later, this was not gone, but she accidentally got a piece of music on the shore of Yingliu Lake, and was heard by the emperor when she played. Because it has the effect of sleeping peacefully, he goes to the emperor every night...... After a long time, I naturally became favored, and I dared to ...... on the emperor's wedding night."

For the big wedding night, it doesn't matter if the sheep is present, but he is very interested in the ghost music on the shore of Yingliu Lake: "Is there really a ghost?" ”

"It's just rumors." Green Bamboo whispered, "I can't tell where I got it." Master Dong is so powerful, he can even get Wang Kuang's copybook, and he must be able to write a tune. ”
