Chapter 687 Stepping over my corpse

Nalan Ying glared at her, did not speak, but walked outside as she wished.

However, when she reached the door, her footsteps stopped suddenly, and just that moment seemed to step on Nalan Qing's heart heavily, making her almost out of breath.

"What is that?" Nalan Ying felt a light flash in front of her eyes, and she looked over subconsciously.

Nalan Qing's heart skipped a beat, only to see a guard walking over, picking up an earring from the ground and holding it in his hand.

"It's a woman's earring!" The guard said in a deep voice.

"Earrings?" Nalan Ying glanced suspiciously.

Na Lanqing only felt her pupils constrict for a while, how could she be so negligent and drop her earrings in this place.

"Maybe some girl in the mansion lost it, let me ask the girls in the mansion!" Nalan Qing said with a frown.

"Really?" Nalan Ying glanced at her.

"In this small firewood house, there are often little girls who come to carry firewood and so on. They should belong to them!" Nalan Qing explained.

"Alright, anyway, these earrings are a pair. Since one is missing here, the other must be in their hands. Then please gather all the little girls in the mansion and put the other one together. Just find out!" Nalan Ying said in a deep voice.

"Okay!" Nalan Qing's eyes darkened, she agreed, and asked the girl next to her to gather all the female relatives in the mansion into the courtyard.

"All the female relatives are here, the empress can ask in person!" Nalan Qing said pretending to be calm.

"Okay!" Nalan Ying nodded, and stood still in the middle of the yard. After a long time, she raised the earring in her hand and said, "Who is a pair with this earring, can I put it together?"

After the words fell, everyone was full of doubts, and their eyes all fell on Nalan Qing, as if they were waiting for her to say something.

"You don't need to look at her, just look at yourself. Is it a pair with this earring?" Nalan Ying asked in a deep voice.

"This servant seems to have such an earring, but I really can't find the other one!" A little girl stood up timidly and said.

"Really?" Nalan Ying raised an eyebrow and glanced at her.

"Yes, I seem to remember it!" The little girl looked at Nalan Ying nervously.

"What do you do?" Nalan Ying looked at the little girl and asked.

"The servants are serving beside the concubine!" the little girl said with her head bowed.

"Oh, it turned out that she was serving beside the concubine, but I don't understand. Since she is a girl serving beside the concubine, how could she come to such a messy place as the woodshed? Prince Heshun's mansion cannot live without Is it a rough envoy girl?" Nalan Ying asked in a deep voice.

"Slave!" The little girl lowered her eyes guiltily.

"Tell me, explain to Ben Gong how you, a girl serving in the inner courtyard, came to this woodshed?" Nalan Ying asked aggressively in her tone.

"Servant!" The little girl was so frightened that she couldn't speak, her face was full of frightened tears.

"Your Majesty, it's not that you don't know that the maids in our mansion have always been pitifully few. There is no distinction between the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard. What's so strange about her coming to the firewood room?" Nalan Qing explained.

"Really?" Nalan Ying glanced at her and said, "Then let me ask you, what is the shape of these earrings?"

"Yes!" The little girl looked at Nalan Ying and then Nalan Qing in fear, unable to speak.

"You mean, don't you know what your things look like?" Nalan Ying asked sharply.

"I only remember the appearance of flower petals!" The little girl knelt on the ground and said.

"Petals? What kind of petals? How many petals are there?" Nalan Ying shouted.

"The servant doesn't remember!" The little girl shook her head violently.

"Since I don't remember, I will tell you that there are six-petal flowers!" Nalan Ying said in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes, there are six-petal flowers!" The little girl nodded repeatedly.

"Look clearly!" Nalan Ying threw the earring in front of the little girl, there were five petals in it, the little girl rolled her eyes in fright, and fainted immediately.

"Come here. Search this Heshun Palace for me!" Nalan Ying ordered coldly.

"Your Majesty, didn't we search for it before?" the commander of the guards looked at Nalan Ying and asked.

"Continue to search, dig three feet into the ground and search thoroughly!" Nalan Ying said with narrowed eyes.

"Yes!" The commander of the guards responded, and led the people to quickly and thoroughly search the entire Heshun Palace again.

Nalan Ying was sitting in the gazebo, and the night was gradually approaching. Feixue had already brought her a warm cloak, which wrapped her up and covered her hostility.

"You and my sister, why are you making things difficult for me?" Nalan Qing sat beside her and looked at the hazy moonlight and said.

"Why should I make things difficult for you?" Nalan Ying raised her eyebrows and glanced at her.

"You're targeting Heshun Palace so much, isn't it because you're making things difficult for me?" Nalan Qing asked, holding Jin Fear tightly in her hand.

"I'm just acting impartially!" Nalan Ying said.

"Acting impartially? Obviously nothing has been found out, so why don't people evacuate?" Nalan Qing looked at her dissatisfied.

"Didn't you find out?" Nalan Ying raised the earrings in Yang's hand.

"Which little girl left behind this, what's so strange?" Nalan Qing quibbled.

"It's fine if it's really a little girl who fell behind, but if a little girl who doesn't even know how many petals it is is to take the blame, then it's really worthy of attention!" Nalan Ying cast her a glance Said.

Nalan Qing gritted her teeth, and said angrily: "Actually, I should have known about your recalcitrant temperament a long time ago, and I shouldn't have any hope for you! But I always think that you and I are from Nalan My family, with the same blood flowing on my body, you are so vicious to me that you will kill me!"

"Nalan Qing, you are enough. Feng Lanyue committed the crime of treason, which should have implicated the entire government. The emperor is merciful, and has spared his life time and time again. However, he doesn't want to repent and let it go. You were rescued by the Blue Heart Queen, and your whereabouts are still unknown, and what about you? Why are you doing these murders?" Nalan Ying shouted sharply.

"We didn't do it!" Nalan Qing argued with flickering eyes.

"Since you haven't done it, why should you be afraid that I will send people to search?" Nalan Ying asked back.

"Report to Empress Qi, I found a secret room!" Suddenly a guard ran over and shouted loudly.

Nalan Ying's eyes sank, and she walked over quickly, while Nalan Qing turned pale, stomped her feet, and hurriedly followed.

"Whoever dares to go in, step over my corpse!" I saw Concubine Rong with disheveled hair, wearing a court dress given by the former emperor, sitting next to the secret room, looking at everyone with a stern look.
