A thunderclap flashed in the sky, and Xie Changyu stared at a figure in front of the window, but the time returned to calm in the blink of an eye.

Could it be that I was wrong?

Xie Changyu was bold, put on his coat, and pushed open the door: "Ye Qiu, is it you?"

didn't get a response, Xie Changyu looked at the sky, and said in his heart that it was not too late, Ye He and Magpie Xiaoshui should not have fallen asleep.

She didn't give up and called the magpie and the little water twice, but there was no response.

A wisp of wind blew her broken hair, suddenly, Xie Changyu's eyes widened, and the coolness behind her was sassy.

Strange voices rang out all around, accompanied by a cold and terrifying chuckle.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost? Get out of here!"

The terrifying chuckle grew louder and louder, and she could clearly sense that the monster was getting closer to her.

"Xie Changyu, you go die!"

She didn't even realize that the dagger had been plunged deep into her heart.

The eyes were filled with the grim smiling face of a woman, who leaned into her ear and whispered, "You're finally dead." ”

"Oh!

Xie Changyu opened his eyes in a hurry, but saw that the sky was still white, and there was a little light rain outside the window, and the rain was falling along the eaves, and the sound of ticking was very clear.

"It turned out to be a dream. She exhaled, her fingers touching the cold sweat on her forehead, how could she have nightmares again.

Ye He heard the voice and walked in in a panic: "Master, what happened?"

Xie Changyu waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's just a dream." ”

She got up, but her arm accidentally touched the table next to the chaise longue, and accidentally knocked over the bird's nest bowl, and the fine white porcelain bowl fell to the ground, broken and scattered.

Ye He saw Xie Changyu squatting down and frowned, "Master, I'd better come." ’

"Wait. ”

Xie Changyu picked up a fragment and put it into his cuff.

At this time, the magpie also heard the sound and came in, and saw that the young lady was actually picking up the pieces herself, and was shocked: "Miss, you are careful that your hand is scratched, and this kind of rough work is still done by the slave maid." ”

Xie Changyu and Ye He glanced at each other, and after the magpie left, Xie Changyu handed the porcelain piece on the cuff to Ye He.

Ye He looked down and saw that the porcelain was still stained with some dried bird's nest residues.

"Master, do you suspect that there is something wrong with the bird's nest?"

Xie Changyu sighed: "You take this to Lu Wenjing to check, I hope I think too much." ”

This nightmare came from a blur, and since Xie Changyu entered the door, he often dreamed of dead people in his previous life. When she broke through the Xiguang Pavilion Qin Girl level before, she already knew that the shadow in her heart was the eldest princess Xuanyuan Leng.

But it won't be dreamed every two days, there are too many times, Xie Changyu doesn't send someone to check which day like Jiang Yan in front of the four concubines was killed inexplicably.

Ye He's work efficiency is extremely fast, and he broke into the Lu Mansion late at night to find Lu Wenjing.

After informing the reason, Lu Wenjing quickly sent someone to take the porcelain piece to the eldest prince of the Li family to check, and the result was that the air-dried bird's nest on the porcelain piece contained a nightmare Gu.

As the name suggests, Nightmare Gu is not a strong Gu poison, even in Miao Jiang, it is just a kind of inappropriate prank played by children, except for making people have nightmares, it has no effect on people's bodies.

The next day, Xie Changyu got up early in the morning and dared to stop people before the Jiang banquet.

In front of the inner hall, Jiang Yan took the porcelain piece, and his eyebrows were dyed with a layer of impatience.

"I know it, and I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

Xie Changyu raised his hands, and his indifferent attitude towards Jiang Yan was commonplace.

"Jiang Yan, the four concubines in front of you are really unlucky. ”

"Prizes. ”

He threw up his sleeves and left, leaving Xie Changyu alone to sit at the table of the Eight Immortals.

After Jiang Yan left the house, he handed over the porcelain piece of Jinpari to Xuanyi: "Go and check if the Jiang family has mixed into the Miao Jiang people." ”

"Does the master think that the deaths of the previous ladies are all related to the Jiang Mansion?"

"Although Nightmare Gu is not lethal, long-term exposure to Nightmare Poison can cause people to have hallucinations, which is why they die so strangely. ”

......

Agarwood Garden, Xie Changyu put out a piece of rice paper on the desk, and she was dipping ink in ink and writing something on it.

Ye He looked carefully on the side.

"That's it!"

Xie Changyu handed the rice paper full of pen and ink to Ye He, and explained: "Zhao Yuanyuan, the first deceased concubine of Jiang Yan, walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion late one night and went to Xiangjiang, and when she found the body, she was so mutilated that she had no human form. At that time, everyone didn't care, just because Zhao Yuanyuan was dull and unhappy, and Dali Temple was only judged to be a suicide. ”

Ye He shook his head and sighed: "Then Zhao Yuanyuan is also a talented woman among the noble daughters of Shengjing, it's a pity." ”

Xie Changyu raised his eyes and continued: "Concubine Shihua, the daughter of the president of the procuratorate, has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her personality is outgoing, and she is a person with a completely opposite personality to Zhao Yuanyuan. admired Jiang Yan wholeheartedly, and was willing to surrender his identity as a concubine. Also late one night, Concubine Shihua was found tragically dead in her own boudoir of the concubine's family. Before she died, her eyes were gouged out alive. ”

"What a hatred this is, what a grievance~"

Ye He pointed to the third name on the line on the rice paper and said, "This Cui Zhinian is the young lady of the Cui family, Cui Zhiyue's half-sister." ”

"This one is the worst death. ”

Speaking of Cui Zhinian, Xie Changyu thought about it, and he had a relationship with this woman before.

Although Cui Zhinian is a concubine, she is deeply liked by the Cui family's housewife in Cui Mansion, and her reputation in the outside world is not as loud as Cui Zhiyue, and her status in Cui Mansion is not lower than Cui Zhiyue.

Ye He remembered one thing and said: "Master, if you want to say that this Cui Zhinian's temperament is really jealous, she is a two-faced person, jealous, and has a bad relationship with Cui Zhiyue." At that time, the master was able to marry Jiang Yan and have three points of credit, which was considered Cui Zhinian. If Cui Zhinian didn't get in the way, it would be Cui Zhiyue who would be married to Jiang Yan. ”

"Huh!"

Xie Changyu sneered: "So why do you want to squeeze your head to marry Jiang Yan, if Cui Zhinian doesn't have this thought, maybe he will marry the prince instead of Cui Zhiyue, and now no matter how bad it is, he is also the prince's side concubine, the future imperial concubine." ”

The Cui family has been married to the royal family for generations, and the queen has also been selected from the young ladies of the Cui family.

Everyone knows that Cui Zhiyue is interested in Jiang Yan, so the best candidate for the Cui family is placed on Cui Zhinian.

Although she is a concubine, she has the old lady as a guarantor, and the mother family is not weak, marrying the prince is not a high climb.

"By the way, how did Cui Zhinian die?"

Xie Changyu only knew that she was killed in the hunting ground of the palace on the Moon Worship Festival, and he didn't know the details inside.

I only heard Ye He say: "The same was in the middle of the night, that day the palace was hunting, Cui Zhinian was missing, when he found it, he was hit by several arrows on his body, and his limbs were eaten by wild beasts, leaving only his head and torso and white bones." According to the later inspection of Dali Temple, those arrows were not fatal, and Cui Zhiyue was conscious, and watched how he was eaten by the beast in one bite. ”
