Chapter 341: One Separation, Two Wisdoms, Finally Forming Thoughts 2
An hour ago, Yan Ming and his two left the East Palace, and intentionally or unintentionally avoided the guards and palace servants on the way.

"What are you going to do next?" Yan Mo asked in a low voice seeing the patrolling guards walking away.

"Go to Qingque Palace." Qi Ming replied softly, seeing that the other party seemed puzzled, he continued, "There are some things that we don't want to come forward."

As Yan Mo followed, he frowned and thought, if he goes to Qingque Palace, he must either invite Concubine Li or continue to use troublesome spirits!
Afterwards, under Qi Ming's instructions, King Xing really dispatched again. He first pretended to be playful, and ran around the inner courtyard of the palace. It seemed aimless, but in fact he was sending a message.

"Your Highness, you can't pick them." The palace servants were very embarrassed when they saw that His Highness Jiu's hands were full of broken flowers and branches.
"You guys are so stingy! Xiao Wang just folded two sweet-scented osmanthus trees, what's the matter?" King Xing pretended to be dissatisfied, pouted his mouth and pretended to stop, just when the palace people were relieved, he yelled with lightning speed I broke several branches!
The palace people were so shocked that they knelt down and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, Your Highness Ninth Prince—"

In the nearby Palace of Joy, Mother Leng heard the noise and confirmed it through the palace gate.

Although His Highness the Ninth Prince said that he was wanton, he seldom made such untimely and unreasonable actions.

"!" King Xing saw the figure in the Palace of Joy from a distance, and while the palace people were lying on the ground, he conveniently broke a branch with green leaves.
The branch shot straight through and hit the floor tiles in front of the gate of the Palace of Joy!Then, with just a snap, the branches folded vigorously, separating up and down!

The green branches are separated, and the pears are extracted!
Mother Leng understood immediately, and acted immediately!She avoided other people's eyes and ran all the way to her bedroom. After poisoning Cuili to death, she took Chen Shu out of her bosom and held it in her hand, swallowing the poison and killing herself!

In this way, when Eunuch Hai came to arrest him, Cuili and Mother Leng were already dead.

There were no corpses left in the palace, and Eunuch Hai was horrified after taking the self-Chen book and browsing through it!He ordered the palace servants to quickly collect the corpse, and he immediately returned to the Palace of Qinzheng to report!
The emperor took the book from Chen and read it:

The old servant is ashamed of his mother and His Majesty, and he will die without hesitation!
The corpse and the medicine man were decided by the old slave without authorization, and they ordered from Jiaoxiangfang while they were out of the palace to buy.The empress didn't know about this matter, it was all done by the old slave alone!
In order to frame the East Palace, the old slave bribed Eunuch Chou, and then embezzled the medicinal stone food materials in the palace to make him die due to excessive nourishment.

Seeing the empress suffering, this old slave can't bear it, I hope His Majesty will return the innocence of the concubine for the sake of this old slave's sincere service to the Lord!
The old slave knew very well that his sins were serious, and everything was caused by Cuili. After several days of treatment, Cuili did not improve, and the old slave resented in his heart.

Anyway, it's a dead end, so the old slave will take her away together!
kowtow!kowtow!kowtow!

After reading the letter, the emperor let out a long breath and fell silent for a while.
While Yan Mo was still secretly observing, Qi Ming never moved his eyes from the beginning to the end. He knew that, in order to protect the reputation of the crown prince, this "scapegoat" he bumped into, his father would never let go. Pass.What's more, strictly speaking, Nanny Leng was also an accomplice in this incident.

After Eunuch Hai gradually recovered from the horror of seeing the dead, he waved to the little Eunuch outside.

The little father-in-law respectfully served the maid's travel record.

"Your Majesty, this is Nanny Leng's travel record." Eunuch Hai took the booklet and presented it to the emperor, "Nurse Leng did leave the palace the day before the corpse appeared in the East Palace."

After the emperor took the travel record and confirmed it, he beckoned the rest of the people to leave.
"Father." Qi Ming suggested after seeing that he was safe, "I know what my father is worried about. However, the security in the palace has been leaked one after another, and Jiaoxiangfang has been evacuated early, so I am afraid."

"What are you afraid of?" The emperor interrupted in a cold voice, "Nurse Leng and Mr. Chou who are involved in this matter are all dead, and the Jiaoxiangfang you mentioned has also been burned down. This matter should be settled."

"Father, if you can send the medicine man and the corpse into the palace, there must be someone from the palace to respond! If you don't investigate thoroughly, there will be troubles in the future! My son suggested that Princess Yi'an continue to investigate secretly to catch those black sheep. Peace in the Wei palace!"

When Qi Ming suggested this, apart from the consideration of safety, he was more concerned about who is the "who" who guides Concubine Qi behind the scenes.In order to save Concubine Qi, he had no choice but to give up Nanny Leng.

"This is the end of this matter!" The emperor said coldly, thinking that now is the best time to end it!
"Brother Huang didn't suffer the slightest injury this time, it's luck out of ten thousand. What if the medicine is harmful?" Qi Ming argued, "Brother Huang is in danger"

"Enough! Minger!" The emperor reprimanded him! "Not to mention the guards in the palace, there are Lu Qi, Bai Xue and Lan Xue in the East Palace! You don't need to worry about the prince's safety!! I never thought that this matter would be so involved! No matter how secret the investigation is, Princess Yi'an often comes in and out. In the palace, what do you think the courtiers will think of it?! How will the prince deal with himself?!"

Qi Ming: "."

Yan Mo really didn't expect that the fox, who has always been sympathetic to His Majesty and his eyebrows, would be in a hurry!Is it because Brother Jin's attitude towards him has changed today?

After an embarrassing silence, before Yan Mo could open his mouth to persuade him, the emperor first controlled his emotions and said, "I've done the things in the palace, you don't need to worry about it, go back."

The night outside the palace had already quietly fallen. After Yan Ming and the two left, the emperor felt very tired and buried himself in his palms.
As the snowy night deepens, Deng's mansion.

Deng Shangshu was still hesitant to ask Princess Yi'an for help, but when he heard that the steward came to report that Nanny Leng had already taken the blame, his hope was instantly ignited!

"Great!" He gave up the idea of ​​visiting the Yi'an Palace without hesitation, folded his hands together and kowtowed, "Ancestor bless, ancestor bless! May the Deng family be released from prison as soon as possible."

At this time, in the Yi'an Palace, the guards went in and out, and went in and out again.

"My lord, Nanny Leng and Cuili have been settled."

After Lu Jiu finished his report and silently withdrew, Yan Mo finally couldn't help asking, "What did you do?"

Qi Ming replied flatly: "No one, it's just some fake death medicine. After this incident, Cuili can no longer stay in the palace, so I asked Mother Leng to bring her out together."

"At the same time, you let Mother Leng take all the blame for your crimes." Yan Mo continued, "This is to rescue Concubine Qi."

Qi Ming sighed deeply and said, "It's just that I don't know if Concubine Qi will repent after going through this calamity."

"I'm still confused." Yan Mo frowned, "The one Concubine Qi and Shangshu Deng seem to know everything about the Eastern Palace. Could it be that the "Eastern Palace is restless" refers to the matter of the medicine man?"

Hearing this, a strange expression flashed across Qi Ming's face: "You know everything about the Eastern Palace. How big should this person's fishing net be? Besides, the medicine man was set up by the emperor's brother in secret, and even the father didn't know about it. What about that person?" know?"

Yan Mo felt that the more he talked, the more chaotic he became, so he couldn't help scratching his hair: "Why don't you ask Deng Shangshu directly, if you don't want to tell him, threaten him directly!"

Qi Ming: "You can't say anything. Threatening courtiers is a felony."

Yan Mo: "Then pretend to be a bandit, just like sneaking into Yuan's mansion and the prime minister's mansion before!"

Qi Ming: "Now is the right time, if we pretend to be bandits, we will easily arouse suspicion. Don't worry, Senior One and Senior Two will take turns guarding Deng's Mansion, and any changes will not be missed. The problem now is, if Emperor Father releases Concubine Qi , how should we guard against it? And how should we pry out the news about 'that' from her mouth?"

Before the two had an agreement, Qian Su, who had just returned from outside, begged to see him outside the door.

"Come in."

"Prince and Concubine." Qian Su saluted, "So far, there is nothing unusual around Jiaoxiangfang, and there is nothing special under the ruins."

"It seems that they have completely evacuated." Qi Ming pinched the nose, trying to drive away some fatigue, and ordered, "Just in case, continue to monitor."

"Yes!"

Before Qian Su had gone far, Qiu Bo came to the Yanming Courtyard with an ugly face.

"Report to the lord. Is the old servant incompetent, or failed to catch the mouse in the back kitchen."

"Has the palace been stolen?" Yan Mo asked in disbelief when he heard the mouse!

"Small things, you don't need to worry about them." Qi Ming turned to ask, "What's missing?"

Uncle Qiu's face became even more ugly: "There are a few plates of stir-fried seasonal vegetables missing, and there is a plate of roast chicken that the princess likes to eat."

When Yan Mo heard that the big mouse was robbing him for food, he wanted to rush to the back kitchen to catch it!
"Disappearing wound medicine, tonic roast chicken and seasonal vegetables." Qi Ming thought about it, and ordered, "Uncle Qiu, check to see if anyone in the house has been injured."

"Yes."

"My lord!" As soon as Uncle Qiu went out, Uncle Lan came in with another letter. He was about to report when he saw the concubine was there, so he swallowed his words and silently handed the letter to the lord.

Qi Ming looked at Lan Bo with some strange eyes, and then took the letter. He knew that Lan Bo had received a sealed letter, but why didn't Yan Mo know about it?

After reading the contents of the letter, Qi Ming blinked and understood, and he led Lanbo out: "Yan'er, how to pry Concubine Qi's mouth, I will leave it to you."

"." Yan Mo watched the two leave helplessly, leaving himself embarrassed in the side room, "Lanbo is always so secretive, these two must be hiding something from me!" Squinting her eyes, she disdainfully Curling his lips, he muttered to himself.

Qi Ming led Lanbo all the way to the idle Yueming Yuan.

"Feng Zhi and Venerable Dongfeng chased the suspect all the way into Beijing." Lan Bo said with shining eyes, "I'm afraid the princess will act impulsively after she finds out."

"It's about internal power bombs. With her temperament, it's very possible. You should pay attention to this matter first. If there is any need, the whole house can call it."

Lan Bo just wanted to go back, when the two people standing in the courtyard door heard the slight sound inside the house!Not very real.
Just in case, the two looked at each other vigilantly and hurried into the depths of the courtyard!

Although the Yueming Courtyard is idle, there are always guards outside the courtyard. Qi Ming can't think of anyone who is so powerful to break into this place!

"My lord! Look!"

Qi Ming followed Lan Bo's expectations and found that a window of the main house was slightly open!

The two strode forward and found nothing unusual around the window. Afterwards, they entered the room and inspected it again. There was no strange smell or anything suspicious.

At this moment, the slightly opened window suddenly squeaked and moved with the wind, the range was not large, but the small sound made people feel hairy!

Lan Bo stepped forward to look at the connection between the window edge and the frame, and found that the wooden parts inside had shrunk due to the cold weather, and had not been replaced all year round, which was already overwhelmed.

"My lord, it's a false alarm."

"." Qi Ming was still worried, and checked the inner room carefully again, and at the same time turned on the maximum perception.

A moment later, he saw that all the decorations and important items had not been touched, so he calmed down and walked out.Afterwards, he ordered Lan Bo to change the old window, and then went back to Yanming Courtyard alone.

Back in the side room, he saw that the room was empty, looking through the full moon window, Yan Mo was pacing and thinking in the dimly lit place.

When he came to the tea table, Qi Ming warmed his hands with silver charcoal, and was about to pour himself a cup of tea, but unexpectedly there was a letter on the tea table!
"!" As soon as he became alert, he quickly looked around. If the guard brought a letter, he wouldn't put it directly on the tea table so sloppily!Zi Mo has never liked to write, and he will definitely say something when he has something to say, so where did this letter come from?

If he came from outside and could have such skills, the first thing he would think of would be Moyu!
After urgently opening the letter and browsing through it, Qi Ming's expression became more and more strange and dignified!

He confirmed the contents of the letter over and over again, and couldn't help but his eyes gradually turned red, and hot tears dripped down involuntarily. Because of the shock, he, who had always been prudent and reserved, couldn't help shaking his shoulders, and his face was full of disbelief! ! !

"How. Why. Why. Impossible."

Sadness and helplessness penetrated from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet in an instant!
Plop!Because he couldn't support himself, he fell to his knees directly. In order not to disturb Yan Mo, he tried his best to hold back his crying, but he couldn't resist the sadness that was running around in his body.
"Mother concubine, what should mother concubine and children do? All this, mother concubine, what is going on?"

Suddenly regaining consciousness, he barely stood up and began to search in the side room!The person who left the letter must have taken advantage of the little time between Yan Mo and him to leave the letter here, maybe, maybe it can catch a little bit of the other party's tail!
Of course!
"My lord!"

At this time, Lu Jiu came to report again.

Qi Ming was stunned, and then scolded: "Don't come in!"

"Huh?!" Lu Jiu suddenly bounced back as if hitting the south wall!He sneaked a peek inside, and found that the princess was not at the tea table, nor was the prince here, and the two of them went to each other? "Oh!" He hurriedly covered his red face, turned around and stood still, letting all kinds of imagination pass through him, and he laughed from time to time, making people daydream again and again.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qi Ming straightened his clothes, wiped away his tears, and after returning to his usual appearance, he hid the letter in his bosom before walking out slowly.

"What's the matter?"

Lu Jiu was afraid of seeing something she shouldn't have seen, so she dared to turn her back and said, "My lord, from yesterday to now, there has been no movement in the pharmacy. I just want to ask, do you want to expand the scope of the search?"

"There's no need to check, and I'll tell Uncle Qiu not to check either. A little medicine and ingredients are just a drop in the bucket for the palace." Qi Ming still had red eyes, and said in an indifferent voice, "Prepare the horse, I want to enter the palace."

"Huh? But my lord, it's already three o'clock in the unitary hour. At the end of the xu hour, the gate of the palace will be closed." Lu Jiu turned around as she spoke, not wanting to see the terribly tired look on the lord's face, as if she had been hit by something. Then, his eyes slanted, and through the big full moon window, he vaguely saw the princess pacing in the main room.

Oops bad!

He secretly screamed in his heart!Could it be that he came at the wrong time, and the prince and concubine got into an awkward situation again?

"Hurry up!" Seeing that the other party didn't move, Qi Ming shot at him coldly!

"Yes!!" Sensing the danger, Lu Jiu didn't dare to stay, turned around and ran away!
After Qi Ming watched the other party disappear, he took out the letter in his arms and wrote down all the contents, and then burned it completely with a candle.

When he left the house, his anxious footsteps stopped because of Yi Ren in his peripheral vision.
In the cold moon with pine branches, his Su Su figure was shrouded in moonlight, as if covered with a layer of sadness.

The blue ashes fade away,
Speechless, I choked on the moon and said goodbye.

Three thousand thoughts are thick with rolling curtains,
Why is Yiyi nostalgic for sin?
The cold wind was blowing his sleeves, and the corners of his skirt were wiping the snow. When Yan Mo looked back at the courtyard, there was no one there, only a gust of wind blowing ice crystals, leaving only a ray of warmth.
The horseshoes trampled, the plains splashed, and the whole capital city was covered with snow. The warm colored lanterns contrasted with the cold precious moon in the night sky, and the cold and warm alternated.

"Drive! Drive!!"

Because Qi Ming hurried on the road, the tip of his nose was frozen red by snowflakes. He got off his horse in front of the palace gate and went straight to the imperial mausoleum!

Seeing this, the guards were very nervous, and hurriedly informed His Majesty!

Flying and running, Qi Ming came to the imperial tomb at full speed almost without touching the ground!After entering the stone room, he did not let the guards follow him, but activated the mechanism himself, and closed the stone door firmly!
He came to Ming Concubine's tomb with strides, knelt down and said, "Mother Concubine. It's my child who is not filial. Today, my child must see you!" After speaking, he stood up, sucked in his sour nose, and together with his internal strength, opened the Ming Dynasty with the sword energy. Concubine's coffin! !

When the heavy coffin lid was about to fall heavily, a hand with well-knit joints firmly caught it!
Qi Ming carefully pushed the lid of the coffin away, and with a burst of smoke and dust, the flames finally shone into the coffin
"How could it be? Mother Concubine" He looked at the coffin with only clothes and hats, and hot tears fell, seeping into the neatly laid moon white dress, "Mother Concubine. Why are you not here? Why? What the hell is this? What's going on?!" With great doubts in his heart, he couldn't help shouting at the coffin, "Mother, tell me! What the hell is going on?!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Woo"

In the entire stone room, except for Qi Ming's own echo, there was no response, only the silver tail ring was shining brightly, like tears of heartbreak.
