"She was the one who served the remnants of the princess before." An Lingrong said the identity of Hua Sui, and Zhen Huan's expression immediately changed, and Fu continued, "When she first came, she did it, and she had a lot of weight, and the cardamom next to me saw the clues, so I paid attention, at that time, my sister had just stopped the medicine, so she didn't let her get it." Later, my sister began to regulate her body again, and I couldn't talk about it clearly, so I could only let Cardamom find an opportunity to drop my sister's medicine jar, and for this reason, I also caused Huanbi and Cardamom to quarrel. ”

Huanbi happened to come in with Liuzhu and them at this time, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but blush on the ground.

"So that's the case, it's the slave who blames Cardamom, and the slave will go and apologize to her later." I don't know how Zhen Huan has been training these days, Huanbi is completely like a different person.

An Lingrong pursed his lips and smiled, noncommittal, and continued to talk about the matter of Hua Sui: "About that time, the incident was a bit big, and after changing to a new medicine jar, Hua Sui also stopped for a while. But I was still afraid that she would have a back hand, so I specially reminded my sister to pay attention to the Yuguan woman. ”

Zhen Huan nodded.

"But just the day before yesterday, Hua Sui did it again." An Lingrong looked at the flower spikes that were brought in by dill, her eyes were slightly cold, "This time she learned smartly, the amount was very small, only the lid of the medicine jar was put in the boiling water mixed with the medicine and rolled a few times, the lid was thoroughly eaten, and there was no need to do anything else when decocting the medicine, just waiting for the medicine to boil and roll, and the water vapor touched the lid, and she could mix the medicine into it unconsciously." Flower spike, yes and no? ”

When Hua Sui was tied up by Dill without saying a word, she knew that the matter was exposed, and with a cloth ball in her mouth, she knelt with a dejected face, and did not dare to raise her head.

Huanbi looked scared, but Liuzhu was full of resentment: "If you have the courage to do it, don't you have the courage to admit it?" Don't even look up, as if someone is going to eat you! ”

Flower Spike trembled and raised her head halfway.

"You do things carefully, you don't leave a trace, but if you don't want people to know, unless you don't do it, whenever you do something, there will always be clues." An Lingrong sneered at the flower spike, turned to look at Zhen Huan and said, "Things are not completely certain, I don't dare to startle the snake and stab in front of my sister, Dill carefully touched around the palace, and found a loose masonry under the palace wall, after taking it out, it was exactly a hole the size of an outstretcher, which was the channel for their joints." ”

Zhen Huan's face turned pale, looking at the flower spike, a trace of hidden anger appeared on her face: "Woe to Xiao Wall, someone must have done something on the portal." The ancients did not deceive me. Flower Spike, don't be honest yet! ”

"The slave doesn't know what Rong Chang is talking about, the slave is wronged." The flower spike was taken off the cloth ball in her mouth by dill, and when she opened her mouth, she shouted injustice.

An Lingrong smiled: "Now waiting by the side of the Yuguan woman is Xiao Yinzi, the former apprentice of Kang Luhai, if she has any orders, she will ask Xiao Yinzi to put a note in the corner of the wall, if you want to hand things in, it is also in this corner." The code he used to connect with you was three cuckoo calls, am I right? ”

Hua Suise shrank for a moment, her pupils widened, and she looked at An Lingrong in a daze, her face turned pale inch by inch.

Seeing this, Zhen Huan already knew it in her heart.

Cui Jinxi asked her coldly: "Did the Yu family teach you the treacherous method of soaking the lid in the potion and boiling it?" That medicine was also given to you by Yu? Seeing that Hua Sui was so frightened that she nodded with tears on her face, she asked sharply, "In this broken jade xuan, there are no other comrades?" ”

Hua Sui trembled in fright and kowtowed repeatedly: "No more, no more." ”

"Then Yu's, when will you hand over the note and medicine again?" Zhen Huan looked down at the flower spike and asked.

Hua Sui kowtowed a few more times, and cried and said, "Little Master Yu will let people put the medicine in the small hole every other day, and the slave maid will go to get it." ”

"You picked it up the day before yesterday, every other day, isn't it tonight?" An Lingrong calculated, looked at Zhen Huan and said.

Zhen Huan thought for a while and opened her mouth to arrange: "Xiao Yunzi, tie her up and go to the warehouse, don't ask her to find a short meeting, if anyone asks, just say that I sent her to Shen Guiren." Xiao Yunzi answered, dragged the flower spike down, Zhen Huan said again, "Jinxi, you pretend to be the flower spike tonight to get the medicine, and then call a few capable eunuchs, wait for the rabbit, and be sure to get the stolen goods." ”

"Yes, the slave will do it immediately." Cui Jinxi led the order to retreat.

Zhen Huan's brows were tightly locked, and she couldn't show her face.

"Sister, you're tired? In the future, such days will be long, if you don't raise the spirit of twelve, I am afraid that if you turn your head, you will fall into the trap of others, and there will be no place to die. An Lingrong motioned to Liuzhu to pour a cup of tea, "This time, fortunately, I was seen by Cardamom early, and I took precautions, but I don't know if my sister has caught the way, so I should ask Imperial Doctor Wen to take a good look." ”

Zhen Huan held her hand, her whole body was tired: "Sister Rong, why do you seem to be very familiar with the things in the palace, I only noticed many things when you mentioned me." ”

"Sister, when I first entered the palace, I was begging for a living under Concubine Hua." An Lingrong lowered his eyes, held her hand back, and said, "I can't compare to you and Sister Mei, the family is noble, the family style is clear, there are many aunts and concubines in my family, I have known since I was a child, where there are women, there are always disputes between right and wrong, these means, I just see a lot." This palace is more dangerous than the back house, to protect yourself, you must be ruthless, blindly retreating can only make people feel that you are a bully, and counterattack is the law of survival. ”

Zhen Huan looked at her in a daze, a little dazed.

She knew that in this palace, "seeking a one-hearted person, and the white head is not separated" is a delusional thing, but the emperor's actions in the past few days have been constantly shaking her firmness, and she still has expectations in her selfish heart, expecting the emperor to look down on her and truly love her and protect her, but she never thought that in addition to love and grace in this palace, there are so many conspiracies and tricks.

She is serious, can she face these bravely for the sake of the emperor?

Imperial Doctor Wen came over to check Zhen Huan's pulse, and checked it again: "The little master doesn't have to worry, this medicine is not a poison, but one of the flavors in Weichen's prescription, he added some more amounts, although it is not fatal, but if you take it for a long time according to this amount, the little master will be tired at first, often drowsy, and within half a year, he will be insane and describe dementia." He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, the little master didn't take too much, there is still room for turnaround, Weichen will open a new recipe, and the little master will eat it for a few days." ”

It was expected, but Zhen Huan still felt terrible when she heard it: "You really look up to me, and you thought of such a meticulous way to deal with me." ”

Imperial Physician Wen looked at Zhen Huan worriedly, but Zhen Huan didn't realize it and only asked him to go down and prescribe medicine.

In the evening, Zhen Huan stood in the courtyard with An Lingrong, quietly looking at the layout of the courtyard, shaking hands with each other, as if holding the only warmth.

Xiao Yunzi was lying on the eaves hiddenly, Cui Jinxi was guarding the corner of the wall, and the rest of the little eunuchs were guarding behind the door with sticks and ropes, just waiting for an order to rush out and tie up people.

"Xiao Yunzi's skills are good, such a high eaves is not something that ordinary people can go up to." An Lingrong comforted Zhen Huan, "He was lying on it, if he didn't pay close attention to it, he really couldn't see him on it." Sister rest assured, she will be able to catch that person. ”

"Hmm." Zhen Huan nodded, "You said that the person who connected with the flower spike is Xiaoyinzi?" Seeing An Lingrong nodding, she couldn't help but be a little angry, "When he was in my palace, I didn't treat him lightly, and that day he said that he would follow his master, and I didn't embarrass him much, and gave him the silver for dismissal, how can he be so wolf-hearted!" ”

"To each his own master." An Lingrong sighed and said, "He may not really want to harm his sister, it's just that he is now by the side of Yu Guannu and has to obey orders." Speaking of which, I would like to remind my sister that this matter clearly seems to be that the Yuguan woman wants to poison her sister, but has my sister ever thought about it, the Yuguan woman was born in the plum garden, and now she is rejected by the emperor, how can she come up with such a method? Where did the medicine come from? ”

Zhen Huan's eyes widened slightly: "You mean, there is another command behind the Yu family?" ”

"It's either Concubine Li, it's Concubine Hua, or rather, it's Concubine Hua's mastermind and Concubine Li's instructions, and the Yu family is just being used as a gun." An Lingrong said frankly.

This matter, even if An Lingrong didn't mention it, after a period of time, Zhen Huan could figure it out, but in the previous life, the Yu family died quickly, and even the flower spikes and small seals were dealt with, and in the end, they only brought down Concubine Li, and Concubine Hua was still in a stable position.

So in this life, An Lingrong wanted to fight back against Concubine Hua more powerfully, and she reminded Zhen Huan in advance.

Suddenly, hearing a cuckoo call, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong suddenly held their breath, and the entire courtyard fell silent.

Cui Jinxi squatted in the corner and cautiously replied twice.

I saw that the brick was removed from the outside, and then a white and tender hand was stretched in, holding a small paper bag in his hand, Cui Jinxi slowly reached over, and looked at the little eunuch on the side, the moment she took the medicine bag, the little eunuch grabbed the hand.

Cui Jinxi turned his head and shouted loudly, reminding Xiao Yunzi: "Caught it!" Yoshiko-chan, it's caught! Fast! ”

Xiao Yunzi flew out of the wall and landed directly behind Xiao Yinzi, a lock throat grabbed him, and the rest of the little eunuchs waiting behind the door all ran out, and after a while, they walked back with Xiao Yinzi tied up with five flowers, Xiao Yunzi threw him in front of An Lingrong and Zhen Huan, and knelt down on his shoulders.

"Father-in-law Yin, don't come unharmed." Zhen Huan's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and she ignored his pleas for mercy, and only said, "Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, we are also masters and servants, so I can ask you what to answer." ”

Xiao Yinzi lowered his head, silent, his eyes dodging, obviously not intending to cooperate.

An Lingrong glanced at dill.

Dill immediately understood, stepped forward, and reached out to the shoulder blade of the small seal.

I don't know how hard she tried, Xiao Yinzi suddenly screamed, and couldn't break free of Dill hand, so she had to kowtow and beg for mercy: "The nobleman spares his life, the nobleman spares his life, and the slaves all say and say." ”

Only then did dill withdraw her hand.

Zhen Huan nodded slightly at An Lingrong, turned to look at Xiao Yinzi, and asked knowingly, "Where are you on an errand now?" ”

It seemed a little difficult to speak, and Xiao Yinzi stumbled and said, "Yes, Yuguan Woman." ”

"That's really wronged you." Huanbi stood at the bottom of the steps, sneering.

Xiao Yinzi's face stiffened: "The one who is a slave just follows the little master, it's not good or bad." ”

"You can think about it." Zhen Huan tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Why haven't I seen you so loyal before?" Eat and drink well in the broken jade xuan, all day long thinking about running out, unwilling to do things faithfully, it is easy to go out, but after living a hard life, I want to be loyal. Your little master seems to be very kind to you! ”

Xiao Yinzi didn't dare to speak.

Where is he loyal, it is really a family whose lives are in the hands of others, since he came to Li Concubine's side, Kang Luhai is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, where do you remember him as an apprentice, plus later Kang Luhai thought about running back, offended Li Concubine, and even took him to be left out in the cold, so he had to find another way. As a result, he fell into the eyes of Li Concubine tiredly, and as soon as he turned his head, he threw him to the Yuguan woman and asked him to run errands to kill his head.

It's true that he is not blessed, if he had died and begged to stay in the Broken Jade Xuan that day, it would not be possible to be in such a situation today.

"Let me ask you, what are you doing sneakily outside my palace in the middle of the night?" Zhen Huan asked again, and seeing that Xiao Yinzi refused to speak, she immediately called Xiao Yunzi, "Give me a hard beating, until he can tell the truth." ”

Xiao Yunzi was about to make a move, but was stopped by An Lingrong raising his hand: "Sister, it's useful to keep him." She slowly walked down the steps, stood still in front of Xiao Yinzi, and said softly, "Does Father-in-law Yin know what kind of crime it is to kill the concubine?" Do you think you can get away with it if you don't say it today? Or do you think that as long as you bite yourself to death and confess your guilt, you can make your family safe for the rest of your life? Father-in-law Yin, who has been in the palace for many years, why is he still so naïve? ”

Xiao Yinzi raised his head suddenly, and looked at Shang'an Lingrong Gujing's waveless eyes, and suddenly felt cold all over: "No, no, Concubine Li promised ......" He was suddenly silent, but it was too late, and his face suddenly turned pale.
