Don't be defensive girl, I'm blind

Chapter 176 Mo Xier's Favor (Subscribe)

When Xiu'er led Xue Mu to Mo Xi'er's side, she left voluntarily and went outside the screen to wait.

Inside the screen, Mo Xi'er was seen leaning on the bed, looking at Xue Mu at the side, and said with some tears: "Master Xue."

Xue Mu immediately cupped his hands and responded, "Ma'am, what happened this morning?"

Seeing that he was unmoved, Mo Xi'er deliberately walked in front of him thinking that his eyes could not see.

Then use the petals to gently pass over the tip of his nose.

With a pursed mouth, he asked, "Master Xue, why don't you ask me if you were scared?"

Xue Mu had no choice but to pretend to ask: "Ma'am, are you okay? Do you need your subordinates to find Eunuch Cao for an imperial physician?"

"Hmph." Mo Xi'er threw the petals in his hand to his chest, and said angrily on purpose: "What's the use of seeking the imperial physician? If the imperial physician is useful, are there any incurable diseases in this world?"

"Your Majesty has always been in good health, and I believe that what happened today shouldn't be too frightening." Xue Mu changed the subject.

Mo Xi'er saw that he didn't want to eat, so he could only say: "I didn't actually see the dead eunuch this morning."

"Ah?" Xue Mu was a little surprised.

Mo Xi'er explained: "Xiu'er saw it, she told me about it immediately, and then I asked her to go to the imperial army."

Xue Mu nodded immediately: "So that's how it is. It's good that the lady wasn't frightened."

"What?" Mo Xi'er tentatively asked, "It seems that you still care about me."

"The subordinates were ordered to find out about the cat monster incident in the harem, and they must be responsible to the empress." Xue Mu naturally didn't dare to express his concern directly, so he could only turn a corner.

After hearing this, Mo Xi'er was also happy.

Immediately afterwards, she walked up to Xue Mu and asked in a low voice, "How was that day?"

"What date did the lady say?"

"How about I let Eunuch Cao come in and discuss the date together?" Mo Xier asked with a suppressed smile.

Xue Mu knew that she was teasing him, so naturally he couldn't be at a disadvantage, so he replied: "The main reason is that I have had too many contacts with the empress, and my subordinates have forgotten about it."

Hearing this, Mo Xi'er became angry: "Well, Xue Mu, you sat outside that day, and Bengong gave it to you personally, you forgot, right?!"

"Subordinates will never forget." Xue Mu pretended to be nervous.

"You really haven't forgotten?" Mo Xi'er frowned.

Xue Mu replied: "Your Majesty condescends to do these things for my subordinates, and my subordinates will never forget them in this lifetime."

When Mo Xi'er heard this, she became arrogant: "Hmph, now I know what to say, you wooden fish head."

"Your Majesty taught me that." Naturally, Xue Mu didn't dare to refute, after all, the person in front of him had just personally helped him two days ago.

And she was the imperial concubine of the Daqing Dynasty.

This kind of blessing is not something everyone can have.

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Mo Xi'er asked, "Did you go to Sister Weiwei's just now?"

Xue Mu nodded: "Yes."

"Did she hear the cat meow last night?" Mo Xi'er continued to ask.

Xue Mu replied: "That's right, I heard a cat meowing in Concubine Mu's bedroom last night, and the meowing was very miserable."

After Mo Xi'er heard this, she gloated and laughed: "She will definitely be so scared that she won't be able to sleep."

Then, she asked Xue Mu to sit down.

Xue Mu thought she was going to do that again, so he hurriedly stopped her, "Ma'am, I'm afraid."

At this moment, Mo Xi'er took a piece from her body.

She looked at Xue Mu and deliberately teased, "Why, don't you want it?"

"No. I'm afraid at this time." Of course, Xue Mu didn't dare to refuse to be too obvious. What if he didn't say it himself when he had the opportunity in the future?
Mo Xi'er handed the jade pendant she was wearing to Xue Mu, and said, "What are you thinking? Don't think that you can hold on for a long time. I haven't used my full strength yet, but let's forget it this time."

"You take this jade pendant to exorcise evil spirits. I hope you can find the mastermind behind the cat demon case."

After speaking, he tied it around his waist himself.

Seeing that Mo Xi'er loved him so much, Xue Mu was moved, but also a little surprised.

Then he probed: "Your Majesty, there is something unclear about this subordinate."

"Say."

"My empress and I are not related, why are you so kind to my subordinates?" Xue Mu asked.

Hearing this question, Mo Xi'er laughed.

She then said: "Because you are good-looking, you may not be able to see your own face, but every time I see you, I always feel that I should not stay in this palace. If I met you two years ago If that is the case, I will definitely not promise my parents to choose any concubine when they enter the palace."

"Your Majesty won the prize."

Xue Mu explained: "This subordinate is an ordinary person, so he is not worthy of your empress's love."

"Look at what you said, if you were an ordinary person, then I would have looked down on you a long time ago, well, don't say these things, if you are free in the future, come here often, I don't I'm asking too much of you, just talk to me when you have time."

Mo Xi'er walked up to his side, suddenly leaned her head in his arms, put her hands around Xue Mu's waist lightly, and said with a sigh: "If one day you marry a wife and have children, then I will break this relationship." One thought, of course, if you still miss the tenderness of that day, you can come to me at any time, you can rest assured that His Majesty will not come to the harem now."

Xue Mu was a little embarrassed, so he could only stand and let her hug him.

After a while, Mo Xi'er let go of him, and waved: "Okay, you can go now."

Xue Mu nodded: "Yes, ma'am."

After saying that, he left.

Mo Xi'er saw that he was extremely resolute in leaving, and knew that she hadn't really kept his heart.

However, it is normal.

After all, he used the method of light mouthing at the beginning, which made him have some changes in concept.

If you want to make him a little concerned, then you can only
Thinking of this, Mo Xi'er looked at the red bed.

Xue Mu walked out of the palace.

Immediately afterwards, he came in front of Nangong Xue.

Nangong Xue couldn't help frowning and said, "Why is it taking so long?"

Xue Mu explained: "I just heard your empress talk about what happened this morning."

"What happened this morning?" Nangong Xue asked.

Xue Mu replied embarrassingly: "Actually, the first person who found the little eunuch's body was the maid Xiu'er. When she found the eunuch in the water, she was already floating on it with her face up. It was very scary."

Nangong Xue looked at Eunuch Cao and asked, "Eunuch Cao, where is the little eunuch's body?"

"The two adults come with me."

Soon, Eunuch Cao took them to the morgue again.

Every time she passed by here, Nangong Xue always felt a little creepy.

There is a chilly feeling.

After opening the door, Eunuch Cao led them to the first corpse.

"Because after the cat demon case happened, the Empress specifically told us to keep the corpse and show it to the two adults."

"Yes, the empress is really careful." Nangongxue nodded.

Eunuch Cao seemed to feel a little flustered, he looked around, and finally said: "My lords, this old slave is still waiting outside."

After speaking, he left in small steps.

After closing the door, Xue Mu asked, "Sister Xueer, how is this corpse?"

"Soaked all night, the corpse is obviously a little swollen." Nangongxue checked.

Then she looked at the traces on the corpse and began to examine it.

Want to find some clues.

However, after a general look, there is still not much to discover.

Xue Mu suddenly thought of the obvious bruises on the forehead of the maid's body last time, so he asked Nangong Xue, "Sister Xue'er, take a look at the forehead."

Nangong Xue recalled it all at once.

Then he took a closer look.

really.

There is a turquoise scratch on the front left side of the forehead.

This kind of scrape wound is very fresh, and it looks like it should have been made before death.

In these two consecutive murders, the deceased had wounds on the front of his forehead.

Fall into the well and die.

For a moment, Nangong Xue didn't know what truth was hidden?
In the end, she and Xue Mu also walked out of the morgue.

Eunuch Cao, who was standing outside the door, hurried forward and asked, "My lords, how is the inspection going?"

Nangongxue explained: "There are not many discoveries."

"In that case, let's go to Kunning Palace and tell the empress about it." Eunuch Cao suggested.

Nangongxue nodded, motioning for him to lead the way.

Not long after, they arrived at Kunning Palace.

"Empress, this old slave is here with two adults." Eunuch Cao knelt on the ground.

At this time, the queen's tone was obviously anxious: "My lords, this cat demon incident happened again, do you have any clues?"

"Report to Empress, my subordinates inspected the deceased found this morning, and found that the two deceased had slight abrasions on the front of their foreheads, and there were no other injuries other than that, which means that they were indeed thrown into a well. and die."

"Did they throw themselves into the well?" Queen Empress Lan Jiuyun asked suddenly.

Xue Mu also knew that she would ask this question, so he explained: "Ms. Hui, I really don't know whether they threw themselves into the well or someone did it on purpose."

"Can you check?" Lan Jiuyun frowned.

Yes.

Since the cat demon incident this time, the harem has become even more disturbed.

Lan Jiuyun was worried that this incident would alarm the emperor.

At that time, as the mother of a country, she has the responsibility to manage the harem, and I am afraid she will be punished.

So she is also very worried now, whether the God Detective Division can handle this case well.

Nangongxue dare not give affirmation.

Because he didn't know if he could find out the behind-the-scenes of the cat demon incident.

After all, the harem is really too big.

They can't stay in one place like usual.

It is very possible that if you squat wrongly, you will lose another life the next day.

Xue Mu thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something.

So he asked, "Empress, can I ask you a question?"

"Say."

"Is there a well in every bedroom?" Xue Mu asked.

Lan Jiuyun nodded, but subconsciously shook her head again: "Not necessarily."

"Where is there a well, and where is it not?"

Lan Jiuyun was not too clear, she then looked at Eunuch Cao: "Eunuch Cao, do you know?"

Eunuch Cao also shook his head in embarrassment: "Go back to your mother, the old farmer really doesn't know."

"Empress, is there a map in the palace?"

Xue Mu's question made Nangongxue startled.

You know, the map of the palace is not something ordinary people can see.

How could he dare to open such a mouth so easily?
It's simply dead.

But the reason why Xue Mu said that.

It's all because he promised Master Murong Dai back then.

To get her a map of the palace.

Then it is just right to use this opportunity to get the map of the palace.

Lan Jiuyun, who was eager to solve the case, didn't think much about it, and felt that he really needed to investigate how many wells there were in the harem.

So she said to the maid behind her, "Go, go to the cabinet and get a map."

"Yes, ma'am."

The maid behind her immediately went behind the screen and took out a box.

Xue Mu said to Nangongxue at this time: "Sister Xue'er, you have to remember all the places with wells, and then make a mark. We need to investigate on the spot."

"it is good."

Nangongxue didn't expect Lan Jiuyun to actually show them the map of the palace.

This will also help a lot in solving the case.

As the map of the palace spread out.

Nangongxue looked at it seriously.

I have to say, until after looking at the map.

She just realized.

It turns out that the palace map of the Daqing Dynasty is so big.

If they squatted one by one, they might squat until the year of the monkey.

No wonder someone said that one might not be able to see the emperor once in a lifetime.

Lan Jiuyun looked at them, and then said, "Okay, hurry up and see if you can find some clues."

"Yes, ma'am."

talking.

Nangong Xue looked at it seriously.

Xue Mu was thinking of a way.

He had to find a way to get the map.

As time goes by.

Lan Jiuyun was also a little tired.

She simply said to Nangongxue: "You guys watch here, Ai's family should go and have a rest first."

"Yes, ma'am."

After Lan Jiuyun left, they felt a little more relaxed.

After all, there is no need to be so anxious in front of the queen.

Seeing that they were looking at the map seriously, Eunuch Cao stepped forward to remind them: "Actually, every bedroom is basically equipped with a water well. In this way, they can be self-sufficient in terms of draft."

"Eunuch Cao, so you know." Nangongxue was surprised.

Eunuch Cao smiled awkwardly: "After all, this old slave has been in this harem for decades, so I know the way well."

"Then why didn't you say it just now?" Nangong Xue asked back.

Xue Mu replied at this time: "Of course Eunuch Cao dare not say that he is familiar with driving, otherwise, if something happens in the future, he may have to think of Eunuch Cao."

When Eunuch Cao heard this, he could only wipe the sweat off his forehead: "It's still Mr. Xue hahaha."

Nangongxue knew that the old eunuch had a heavy heart, but she never expected to have this trick.

But Xue Mu also thanked him for his low profile, otherwise he would not have been able to touch this map.

The biggest question now is how to bring this map out.

It is definitely impossible to take away the original map.

If you want to redraw a picture, it will take a lot of time, and it is impossible for Lan Jiuyun to redraw it in front of her.

Therefore, Xue Mu was also thinking of a way.

On the other side, Murong Dai came out of the mountain again.

This time, she is going to find her good apprentice, planning to practice together.
