Imperial Doctor Jiang's explanation brightened Leng Qingtang's eyes, which made him feel enlightened.
After thinking for a while, he nodded in agreement,
"Yes, the man probably replaced the abortion drug with poison, coaxed Gu Yunjin to eat it, and then killed Cai Yue who is in know. By the way, isn't there another eunuch in charge in her palace..."
Chang An, the eunuch in the Imperial Ceremony Office, thought of something and said behind the Master,
"Master, I have asked people of Weiyan Chamber just now. They all said that Mao was on duty last night. He was seen to go out of the Palace from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m., but he didn't come back yet. And yesterday, no strange people came in and out of Weiyan Chamber."
Leng Qingtang snorted,
"It's no doubt that the murderer is Mao."
Gu Yunxi's heart was filled with anger, like a huge stone on it, and her eyes condensed,
"Master, who da
"Oh, is there something interesting again?""Go and see!"Hearing the cry of the Third Princess Huanan Jixiang, the concubines gathered around and saw Prince Chen, who was covered with wet dirt and urine. Some people scoffed at him, while others covered their mouths and joked."Nanny Dong, what's going on!"Gu Yunyao raised her eyes and stared at Nanny Dong. The woman immediately looked wronged and bowed her head to hug the Seventh Prince in her arms.It happened suddenly. She really couldn't be blamed."Stop it! Don't do this!"With this angry rebuke, an exquisite figure in purple suddenly came into the surrounding circle."I'm Tu Muxue, the sword-bearing guard in the Eastern Depot. I'd like to meet you, Your Grace."Gu Yunxi tightened her small face and tried to suppress her great anger. After bowing around, she just saw Yu Xuanji."Was it you th
Night breeze was slightly cool in the Cold Palace.Outside the high wall, the branches of trees fluttered, and there was a black figure sitting on the branches.The man's square face covered by the bamboo hat looked solemn and his eyes kept searching inside the high wall."Finally, you are here."The woman in the light-colored ru skirt held the lantern in her hand and walked into the man's vision slowly."I got news from Xin'er."The man with only one arm was exactly Wenren Junzheng."Since you are here, it shows that you agree to help me."The woman showed an elegant smile on her gaunt face like a person who kept herself aloof from the world. It was hard to imagine that her heart was already covered with dark thorns.Seeing that Wenren Junzheng stopped speaking, the woman knew that he was actually reluctant. He agreed to help her only because of their affectio
Half a moment after the singing and dancing in Baohe Palace, the seat of Wan Li was already empty.With the melody of the bells ringing beautifully like wind chimes, a fiery red figure appeared at the entrance of the main hall.Emperor Jingxiao waved his hand to the audience when he saw the High Priest.Singing, dancing, and the orchestra stopped abruptly. After the dancers prostrated themselves before the golden stage, they left with deliberate steps through the small doors on both sides of the aisle.The hall fell into complete silence.Everyone held their breath and paid attention to this world-famous moment.Yu Xuanji, High Priest, cupped his hand in the other under the golden stage, saying loudly,"Your Majesty, I've ringed the blessing bell by your order and prayed to heaven for your longevity, Her Grace's health, and the prosperity and peace of Da Yi.""Great! The pr
In the Baohe Palace…Everyone looked back and saw Wan Li standing at the gate together with a Taoist priest in black. Wan Li also had a gold box in his hand. He slightly raised his jaw with arrogance and shouted,"Your Majesty, Priest Lei has come from far away with the Kunhuang Island map. Today the auspicious time arrives and I will give the true map to Your Majesty.""The Shenle Marquis?" Emperor frowned, feeling confused. He looked at the door and muttered,"How? Is there a false map?"Gradually, the onlookers began to discuss secretly. With permission, Lord Zhang waved the horsetail whisk and announced the two people at the gate into the hall.In full view of a large crowd, Wan Li walked fast and knelt down with Lei Huan under the golden platform.With a disdainful smile, Wan Li cast a sideways glance at Leng Qingtang and said loudly,"Your Majesty, the treasure map pr
"Hehe, does the medicine work so quickly?"Looking at the three corpses lying on the ground, Tu Muxue smiled wickedly,"Hey, it seemed that I put too much medicine. I haven't been on the carriage yet. I'll have trouble for a while..."She twisted her neck, making some grinding sounds, which were so harsh and horrible in the unusually quiet atmosphere.The girl tilted her head and an embroidered shoe slammed on Gu Yunyao's back. When she spoke, her voice was low and dumb, especially like a man, which was very different from that of lightness and sweetness just now."Concubine Yu, don't blame me. It is your sister Gu Yunxi who betrayed Your Highness and made us uneasy in this world. You are the most important person to Gu Yunxi. Killing you is equivalent to killing her. I don’t want to be the wife of that detestableEmperor and I will send that old man to the dwelling place of the dead to accompany you later. Hahah
At the dark night, the wheels rolled, rushing all the way to the west.Tu Muxue kept struggling constantly in the bumpy carriage. She was grabbed by An Hong and pressed firmly in the depths of the carriage.The girl was sweating profusely. Her face was sallow and she narrowed her sore eyes, trying to fix her eyes on Ming Lan's awl face in the blurred vision."Is that you? Ming Lan. Is that you?"Ming Lan sat there calmly, his thin body swaying slightly from side to side with the carriage."What's wrong? Were your eyes completely destroyed?He asked in a high voice with contempt and arrogance, raising one side of his eyebrows.Tu Muxue gritted her teeth bitterly and she looked so cold and resentful."D**n Eastern Depot! Leng Qingtang is so vicious!"Ming Lan sneered."Stop dreaming of being the concubine of Emperor. Emperor fainted on the spot at th
The woman dressed in phoenix robe and wearing the golden crown fell on her back from a high place to the blanket, making a heavy noise.Blood bubbles constantly streamed from her half-open mouth. Her eyes were wide open and her face was overcome with surprise and confusion.Time seemed to stand still..."Mother!"It was the heartbreaking call of the Fourth Princess that awakened everyone. And then bursts of screams broke out among concubines. Some concubines were so scared that they covered their faces and some fell directly from their chairs to hide under the table.Eunuchs, palace maids, and imperial doctors all surrounded Empress Qian, trying to save her."Mother... Mother!"Huanan Jiyan rushed to the side of Empress Qian, knelt down, and cried. Her two small hands shook the woman's half-dead body desperately."Mother, mother! Please wake up! Oh, come to save my mother..
On a paved path, Gu Yunxi was attracted by the fierce impact sound of the weaponry.Narrowing her eyes, Gu Yunxi found that the guard team of the Eastern Depot led by Ai Qing was fighting with two people.Both of them were in official suit of guards. One of them looked strange, while the other was Lu Qiange.On the periphery of the human wall, another person dressed as a guard was firmly pressed by people of the Eastern Depot, with his face pressed to the ground.Two eunuchs were Lu Qiange's subordinates Wuji and Dayan.Lu Qiange and they two had already prepared for the Spring Banquet this night to capture the Kunhuang Island map.Just before the start of the banquet, Wuji and Dayan wormed their ways into the Honour Guards who aimed at safeguarding according to their plan, waiting for the opportunity.In Baohe Palace, the Shenle Marquis competed with the Eastern Depot, and the differen
