Concubine Chang Sturdy: Overwhelming His Majesty Du Meng

Chapter 40 Revisiting Yuxiu Pavilion

After Hao Mei left, Hu Meiniang started to investigate, but like the Ministry of Criminal Justice, she couldn't find any useful clues at all, and the dead continued, and it was very regular once every three days.

And the scope of the dead is not limited to the newly arrived beauties, court ladies, eunuchs, and even guards... As a result, many people began to doubt whether the haunted rumors were true, but some still insisted that Hao Mei must have done it. .

In Qianfeng Palace, Hao Mei was fidgeting and pacing back and forth, with a worried look on her face. People in the palace would not feel at ease until the case was solved. As a queen, she naturally had the duty to protect everyone's safety.But now Hao Mei herself is not sure whether it will be her turn next.

She did see a shadow with several tails that night, but it was strange to say that the people from the Ministry of Punishment had also ambushed here before, but they didn't find anything, and they still died after they left.

It seems that that thing is deliberately targeting Hao Mei?In this way, it is very likely that Hao Mei will be the next target.Thinking of this, her heart couldn't help trembling, and she began to worry about her own safety. If it was as she had guessed, it would be a disaster.

These days, Hao Mei has always asked the maid to accompany her day and night, in order to have evidence of her alibi to convince others of her innocence.However, doing so still did not completely dispel the suspicion, but was said to be a guilty conscience by others.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Hu is here to visit." The eunuch came over to announce.

Hao Mei was stunned for a moment, what is Hu Meiniang doing here?This woman, Hao Mei, has always been extremely wary of her. Originally, she was just an unknown woman picked up by Shangguan Ran on the road, but she never expected that Jing Ri would become an imperial physician.

But since it's here, there's no reason not to disappear, "Let her in."

The eunuch bowed and saluted, then stepped back.

Not long after, Hu Meiniang came from outside, saluted very politely and called Empress Empress.

"I don't know why Imperial Physician Hu came to see me today?" Hao Mei asked indifferently, she has never let go of her guard against Hu Meiniang for so long.

Hu Meiniang didn't care about Hao Mei's attitude towards her, she said with a very respectful smile:

"The lower official was ordered by the emperor to investigate the mysterious murder case. As the head of the harem, you went to investigate it yourself. Tonight is the third day, so the lower official decided to go in and investigate like the queen, but you have to make sure It’s always good, so I dared to come here and ask the Empress what exactly did you see that night.”

"You want to visit Xiu Pavilion at night?" Hao Mei stood up from the chair and looked at her in surprise. Ever since Hao Mei encountered that incident last time, even the Ministry of Criminal Justice did not dare to stay at night, for fear of being with Hao Mei. An encounter, even if it is explained at that time, it will be difficult to avoid suspicion.

And this Hu Meiniang dared to go there, so Hao Mei's opinion of her changed a little.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. The lower official just wanted to solve the case as soon as possible, so if the empress knows, please tell the lower official the details." She looked fearless.

Hearing this, Hao Mei couldn't help but began to wonder if she was superstitious about her guess at the beginning.

"Meiniang, what you said is correct. If you don't go into the tiger's den, you won't get a tiger's cub. I will go there with you tonight."

The previous time I found nothing, and fainted out of nowhere. This time, with Hu Meiniang, I wouldn't be so scared if I had more people to accompany me. Secondly, since she knows martial arts, it shouldn't be so easy to faint.

Besides, having been there once before, Hao Mei knows how to be careful.

"But Queen, you are a man of gold, so it's better not to take this risk. When the officials find out, they will naturally restore your innocence and justice, and restore the peace of the harem." Hu Meiniang was obviously worried about Hao Mei's past, after all What happened last time is still vivid.

Hao Mei doesn't care about fainting again, besides, it doesn't happen so easily every time, "Ben Gong is naturally the head of the six palaces, so I have the responsibility to investigate this matter, so Mei Niang, don't try to persuade me again. The palace is over, we will meet behind the rockery outside the Xiu Pavilion at midnight tonight."

"This..." Hu Meiniang showed embarrassment, hesitated for a moment but still nodded in agreement.

Hao Mei nodded and told her what happened that night.Especially that strange shadow, but after discussing for a long time, the two of them still couldn't figure out what it was.It seems that we have to wait until the evening to take a look before we can draw a conclusion.

The two talked for a while before Hu Meiniang left. Hao Mei specifically told her to prepare well.

"Liuli!" Hao Mei shouted at the top of her voice.

Liuli immediately ran in from outside the house and stood in front of Hao Mei, "What's the matter calling your servant?"

"Prepare some things for me." Hao Mei's eyes narrowed and a light flashed through them, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she had already gained enough confidence.

Liuli tilted her head and looked at her suspiciously, but quickly walked out to prepare things for Hao Mei amidst a scolding.

It was night, and the entire imperial palace fell into panic again. After several incidents of dead people, almost everyone in the palace gathered together and stared.

Every time there is only one person who dies, there is no way for so many people to get together without a single murderer.

The black figure flashed quickly, ran towards Yuxiu Pavilion, leaned carefully behind the rockery not far from Yuxiu Pavilion, panting heavily.

"Empress?" A small voice came from beside my ear.

Hao Mei was startled, but soon calmed down, looked to the side, panted a bit, and asked, "Meiniang?"

"That's right." Hu Meiniang nodded and said the same black clothes, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and her eyes fell on a burden on Hao Mei's back.

"Ma'am, what are you reciting?" she asked.

Hao Mei sneered, waved her hands and replied, "Of course it's the guy I'm going to use to deal with those things."

"Guy?" Hu Meiniang repeated these two words in doubt.

"You'll know when the time comes." Hao Mei pretended to be mysterious and blinked her eyes. She asked Liuli to prepare it carefully for herself. She drew all kinds of mahogany swords, glutinous rice, ink strings, universe mirrors, and even spells by herself. I bought a few, and even prepared two bowls of black dog blood.

How can I say that Hao Mei's horror movies and zombie movies in the past ten years were not for nothing. Lin Zhengying used these things to fight zombies, so it should be useful to bring it yourself.

The last time I came here, the dead man was bouncing around like a zombie, so it is very likely that the murderer was a zombie!
Of course, this is only Hao Mei's speculation, but it is always right to carry.
