Chapter 514: Assignment

"Thank you princess, slave maid, slave maid is really reluctant to her!" Aunt Shanhe turned her face away and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "The old people often say that people who die can't cross the Nai He Bridge, and ask the prince and the general for permission, let the slave and maid do a magic thing for Ah Qing to overtake her!"

Fang Du walked over and lifted the white cloth, and found that Ah Qing had a very obvious bruise-purple strangulation mark on her neck, coupled with the appearance of her eyes bulging and sticking out her tongue, she should have been strangled to death.

"The man is dead, and it seems that the man is determined not to leave any clues. Cong Miao said, "If you want to find Huaixing, you have to spend some hands and feet!" Busheng said, "It's just that we don't know what that person's purpose is, if it's for money, it's better to say." If it is something else, there is also a way to solve it. I'm afraid that the man doesn't want anything!"

"Don't want anything?" Zhan Xingran didn't seem to understand, "Then why did he do this? It's drugging and substitution, and now he's taking a human life." Fang Dui's eyebrows jumped, "This is the worst-case scenario, he just wants to break us all." It's Huaixing this time, and it won't be who next time!"

"We just entered the palace!" Sima Lu couldn't help but complain, "Except for those two bull-nosed old Taoists, who else can we offend......?"

"Stop, stop!" Mo Xuanji hurriedly interrupted her, lest she say anything rebellious, "Only one of the two arrived tonight, where did the other go, have you thought about it?" Rong Yue said, "You mean, it was Luo Xu who kidnapped Huaixing and killed this palace maid named Ah Qing!"

"I wonder if it's not easy for him to do it?" Fang Du said, "Wouldn't it be okay to visit this Luo Dao Chief?" Huang Xiaorong was a little worried, "Then in what name, if there is no convincing reason, I am afraid that it will startle the snake and push things to a worse point." ”

Fang Du pointed to the corpse covered with a white cloth and said, "The assassin was found in the palace, and the prince was worried about the safety of the two Taoist masters, so he went to comfort him. Not only them, but also Your Majesty, the Queen, the concubines of the palaces, the prince, and the concubine Degui are also going there!"

Cong Miao was so smart that he immediately understood what Fang Duan meant. In addition to Luo Xu, Concubine Degui also has a lot of suspicions. At that moment, Cong Miao immediately arranged manpower, and Fang Duan said, "Let me go to the queen's mother's place, after all, now Niangniang is my sister." Rong Yue, you go with me!"

The palace is so big, if there is no familiar person to guide the way, I am afraid that it will be like a fly on the brow. At this time, Aunt Shanhe took the initiative to ask, "If General Fang doesn't dislike it, let the slave send the general to the queen's palace!"

"Auntie is going, that's the best. Fang Du nodded at everyone, and many of the instructions were inconvenient to say, but they were all silent. Everyone understood what he meant, and secretly had an idea in their hearts, not only to find out Huaixing's whereabouts, but also to find out the origin and purpose of the two Taoist priests.

The Fengluan Palace, where the queen lives, is brightly lit at the moment, and the scolding is endless.

"What kind of thing is she, she hasn't given birth to a child yet, and she's already about to step on the head of the palace!" The queen was indignant, and vented the resentment in her heart, "Your Majesty was dazzled by this fox spirit, and Your Majesty couldn't listen to a word of the words of the palace, and yesterday she didn't reprimand the palace for the words of the palace!"

"Niangniang!" the imperial concubine called softly, and sent a stewed fragrant nectar soup to the queen herself, "You are the queen, why bother to get along with a concubine, isn't it worth it to get angry and hurt your body?"

"Concubine?" the queen snorted coldly, "Sister, if she blows the pillow wind in Your Majesty's ears one day, I'm afraid she will take your place!"

"So what?" the imperial concubine took a sip of the teacup, and the smile on her face did not diminish in the slightest. The queen was surprised, "What, aren't you worried?" The imperial concubine said, "The queen mother is Your Majesty's original wife, and she has been with Your Majesty for the longest time. My sister is not talented, she entered the palace a few years later than Niangniang, but she is also an old man in the palace. Over the years, there have been ups and downs in the harem, you are favored today, and she will be favored tomorrow, which is an ordinary thing. Position is not important to my sister, even if it is a talented person, as long as Your Majesty has this person in his heart, what are you afraid of?"

"You mean?" the queen's heart moved, and she secretly said that she was a little too anxious. For so many years, although there are many warblers and swallows around His Majesty, their husband and wife relationship has not changed at all. Since Concubine De entered the palace, the queen has somehow often been unable to control her temper, complaining to Her Majesty from time to time is quarrelling, every time Your Majesty comes to Fengluan Palace, she can't sit for a meal, and she is angry and left.

"Sister, now that Your Majesty is on the rise, why don't we sisters avoid this limelight?" The imperial concubine saw that there was a contemplative look on the queen's face, and knew that she had listened to her words, so she dared to persuade slowly, "It is said that a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a prostitute, and a prostitute is not as good as stealing." The more he stops, the more His Majesty will think that Concubine De is good. Just like a child, the sugar gourd that can't be eaten is always the most delicious, if you eat it in your mouth, after a long time, you will be tired of the taste, and you don't want to drop it. ”

These words are really good words for the queen. The queen was grateful in her heart, and said to the imperial concubine, "Sister, how many people in this palace are staring at the position of the queen in this palace, and they can't wait to find the fault of this palace and pull this palace off the horse, so that they can be queens." Only sister, you, are really good for this palace. Your words have been recorded in this palace, and this friendship has also been recorded in this palace!"

The imperial concubine put down the tea cup in her hand, walked to the queen, lifted her skirt and knelt down, and solemnly kowtowed, "The queen's mother treats the concubines like a mountain, and the concubines can sit in the position of the imperial concubines, all thanks to the kindness of the concubines, and the concubines are grateful!"

At this time, a palace maid came in to report, "Queen Mother, Imperial Concubine Niangniang, General Fang is here!" The queen was about to ask which General Fang, and suddenly understood that it was the younger brother she "received" tonight. She glanced at the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine got up and returned to her seat, and the queen said with a smile on her face, "Quick, quickly invite the younger brother of the palace in!"

Fang Du walked into the palace with Rong Yue, and after saluting, the queen asked, "Brother, it's so late, you came to see the palace, is there something wrong?" Fang Du said, "Yes, the younger brother is worried that his sister is drunk, so he came to visit, and there is another thing to tell!"

"Say it!" the queen casually wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. Fang Du said, "An assassin has entered the palace and killed a palace maid!"

"What!" When the queen heard this, she immediately stood up, and the imperial concubine hurriedly coughed, and then the queen sat down slowly, relieved her mind and asked, "Can you see clearly, who is the person, and who is the purpose of entering the palace to assassinate him?"
