Feng Ming defies the sky: prostitutes do not become concubines

"Go back to your mother, some people here may have just passed away. The corpses in the morgue will be thrown to the mass grave every three days. These three days, these corpses will be parked here."

Shui Ningyan's delicate face was wrinkled by these few words of Lian Dong. In just three days, so many people died in the palace. Looking at the hands exposed under the white cloth, some of them were maids and some were eunuchs. The master punished them, and those who couldn't bear the pain should stay here.

That being the case, no one would pursue the death of so many court ladies and eunuchs, but this Qiaoer attracted so much attention, Shui Ningyan had to start to have doubts in her heart.

He glanced at Liandong who was standing beside him, seeing that her expression was as usual, she was not panicked by being in this eerie morgue, and a glint of praise flashed in her eyes.

Wu Zuo was soon brought in by the eunuch guarding the gate, and Shui Ningyan stood quietly aside, accepted their greetings, and ordered them to perform an autopsy on Qiaoer.

"Your Majesty, please don't be around during the autopsy, so as not to frighten you." Liandong suddenly spoke to Shui Ningyan at this moment.

Because she was sent by the queen to help her, Shui Ningyan also paid a little attention to her words, although she wanted to watch from the sidelines, she also felt that Liandong's words made sense, so she nodded and followed her out of the house.

A winking eunuch had already prepared a chair for Shui Ningyan and asked her to sit at the door and wait for her autopsy results.

After half an hour, the gatekeeper eunuch came out with Wu Zuo.

"Your Majesty." Wu Zuo knelt in front of Shui Ningyan.

"Get up, and tell me about your autopsy results." Shui Ningyan didn't look at the woman in front of her, just thought about connecting the whole thing together, and became very curious about Concubine Jing.

"Yes, ma'am, when the servant just dissected the corpse of Qiao'er, she was found to be nearly a month pregnant. Besides, there are signs of being whipped on Qiao'er's body." Turning his head to Shui Ningyan respectfully and truthfully replied.

Hearing this, Shui Ningyan was startled, stood up, and looked straight at the morgue.It was as if he wanted to penetrate the wall and see her directly.

"What did you say? How could the maid be pregnant?" Liandong immediately asked in a sharp voice, with a bit of disbelief in her voice.

Shui Ningyan, who was still a little suspicious at first, glanced at her lightly after Liandong finished her question, something moved in her heart, she turned her head to look at Wu Zuo, "But is there anything else I found?"

That clerk lowered his head, and handed a golden ring to Shui Ningyan, "I found this thing in Qiaoer's mouth."

Shui Ningyan reached out to take the ring, held it up in front of her eyes and looked at the ring quietly facing the sunlight.

Seeing Liandong beside him, he couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

Seeing this, Shui Ningyan turned her head to look at Lian Dong with an uncertain expression, held the ring in front of her eyes, and said in a calm and pretentious voice, "Do you know the origin of this ring?"

"Hui Niangniang, this ring has been worn by the imperial concubine before." Liandong lowered her head in fear, and said to Shui Ningyan.

A gleam of light flashed across her eyes, only to disappear in an instant.Because she buried her head too low, Shui Ningyan didn't see the look in her eyes.
