Chapter 251 Conspiracy
Qin Ming nodded: "Definitely, I didn't know it at first, it was just a coincidence, I happened to meet an official of King Zhao's Mansion, and I happened to know him. In front of the restaurant, this official of King Zhao's Mansion and that person After saying hello, the officials of King Zhao's Mansion asked the man why he was not in the East Palace today, but went out instead. Only then did I know that the man was from the East Palace, and the officials of King Zhao's Mansion treated him respectfully. The status of the East Palace must be high, but I don't know how such a person would come into contact with Murong Xianzhen, a manager. As I expected, this person from the East Palace must have talked to Princess Yunhe or Qin Erye. "

Qin He's expression changed after hearing this.

"Although I don't know what it is, it's not a trivial matter. We must report it to the princess at night. We must return to the city at night before the city gate is locked. I am in charge of the affairs of the outer courtyard. I am not allowed to enter the inner courtyard without summons, but you You can enter and leave the Fucui Pavilion at any time, if the princess does not come back, you must also report to the Lord."

Qin Ming answered "Yes".

Not to mention the two of them, when Qin Zhao returned to You's house, there was no one in the corner door. She successfully entered the backyard and returned to the secluded small courtyard where she rested. Da Qiao had already gone to help Jinwu greet the guests. Qiao, however, stayed in the courtyard with Yunshang and Yunwu.

Seeing Qin Zhao's return, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Yunshang helped Qin Zhao change his clothes, Qin Zhao lay down on the couch with his clothes on, and asked Yunshang, "Did someone come to see me just now?"

Yun Chang said in a low voice: "Princess Changning was worried, and sent Yan Yu over to take a look. When I heard that you were asleep, I went back to the front to answer."

Qin Zhao let out a "huh".

Because she drank some wine before and moved her hands again when she went out of the door, she was really a little confused at the moment, so she ordered: "I'm really sleepy, sleep for a while, let Yun Wu Pay attention to some movements, when the women in the front yard leave, if the second sister doesn't come by herself, she will definitely send someone to see if I can go back, wake me up when the time comes, and we will go back today too."

Yun Shang agreed.

After sleeping for about an hour, he heard faint voices outside, and from time to time he heard footsteps entering the room. Qin Zhao felt someone sitting on the edge of the couch, turned over in a daze, opened his eyes, and Seeing that Chang Ning was sitting in front of the bed with Yixing following behind her, seeing her wake up, Chang Ning said angrily, "Feeling better? Damn girl, I don't usually see you drinking, but I drank a lot today, even if you don't give it to me." A Niang is in the way, is it possible that someone really dares to drink A Niang's wine?"

Qin Zhao rubbed his eyes and said with a smile, "Isn't this a good day for Brother Qi? Wouldn't it be a disappointment if you get in the way of drinking? It's rare for me to be filial to my aunt, and my second sister tells me instead."

Seeing that Chang Ning still wanted to talk, Qin Zhao quickly changed the subject: "Second sister and third sister are here, are they going to leave? Let's go home now?"

Chang Ning nodded: "Aniang asked me to come and see you, and asked if you want to go back together."

"Go back, Cousin Jinwu must be busy today, so I won't make trouble for her here. Two sisters wait a moment, I will wash up, and then I will go ahead with my sisters."

After hearing this, Yun Shang asked Yun Wu and Xiao Qiao to bring some washing water, and helped Qin Zhao recomb his hair and straighten his clothes. Then, together with Chang Ning and Yi Xing, they went to the flower hall.

The female relatives have already left, and Jinwu is busy seeing off the guests.Seeing Qin Zhao, he laughed and said, "Seeing you were so drunk, I thought you were going to sleep until night. I just sent Da Qiao to have a look and said you were sleeping soundly, but I didn't wake you up. It's been a while. Are you going to go back with Changning and the others? If you don't feel well, it's okay to stay with me for one night. "

Qin Zhao smiled and shook his head: "I know my cousin is busy today, so I won't make trouble for you here, and besides, I'm sober from the wine, if I don't come back, my aunt will worry."

Jinwu didn't want to keep her either.

Qin Zhao stepped forward to salute the old ladies, and followed Jin Yang back to the palace.

Along the way, Jinyang and his mother were also chatting and joking with Jinyang, Jinyang laughed and scolded: "This is not allowed in the future, this is at You's house, you and Jinwu are like sisters, if you get drunk at someone else's house, you are not a thing."

Qin Zhao said with a smile: "Yes, I won't dare again in the future. Ah Zhao is not stupid, how dare he get drunk in other people's house?"

There are many secrets in the back house, even if you are not drunk, accidents are easy to happen, let alone drunk?Of course, Qin Zhao is not afraid of these things, she is highly skilled and bold, and it is good for her not to harm others, so how can she easily let others plot it?
Jin Yang also knew that there were not many people in this world who could make her suffer, so he just gave her a look, but didn't say anything more.

After returning to the palace, Qin Zhao accompanied Changning Yixing and accompanied Jinyang back to the main courtyard where she lived. As soon as he sat down, he saw Yan Hao enter the room and whispered a few words beside Jinyang. His expression changed, and he glanced at Qin Zhao, who pretended not to know, and talked to Changning Yixing.

Just listen to Jin Yang say: "Murong Xian, the steward of Sansheng Juli, was really killed, right next to the wall of the west courtyard of our mansion."

Both Changning and Yixing looked surprised: "How is this possible? Even if someone wanted to kill him, he would not choose a place close to our palace. Is there a mistake? Besides, Murong Xianzhen, I heard that he is very skilled. How could he be killed so easily? Could it be that he killed someone and threw him somewhere close to our palace? And the murderer's actions are really too... This is to hit our palace in the face?"

Jin Yang glared at Changning and Yixing: "He is just a manager of the Murong family. He belongs to your second aunt and not from our palace. Can he slap our palace in the face?" He said, turning his head to look at Qin Zhao, "Azhao, what do you think?"

Qin Zhao put away the slight astonishment on his face, showing just the right amount of joy, and said with a smile: "It's true that we can't slap our palace in the face, but it's just a manager. His surname is Murong, not Qin, and he will die if he dies. Zhao said, there is no need for Auntie to worry about this matter. The Jinwu Guard is in charge of the dead. Just report it to the Jinwu Guard for investigation. Besides, this is the matter of Juyun and the princess of the three provinces. Murong Xian is really not our Qin servants of the house."

Her schadenfreude made Jin Yang less suspicious, but Jin Yang still took a meaningful look at Qin Zhao, nodded, and told Yan Hao, "You can go to Sansheng Juli and ask yourself, can you report it?" Was it given to the Jinwu Guard? He Yunhe said to the princess, although Murong Xianzhen is not a servant of our palace, but after all, he is a member of the princess, I have sent Qin Louyue to personally go to the Jinwu Guard to question him. Before you go to the three provinces, Also tell Qin Louyue, let him go to the Jinwu Guard."

Yan Hao responded: "Qin Changshi is waiting outside the courtyard, I'll just let you go."

Saying that, he went out the door.

Sisters Qin Zhao and Changning helped Jinyang change his clothes, and then left and went back. Changning and Yixing also wanted to go back to Yulan Residence together.

Out of Jinyang's courtyard, Yixing said: "If you want me to tell you, Mother sent someone to the Jinwu Guard to ask something. I never liked the governor Murong. He is just a dick, but he really takes himself seriously. Look at him Walking in our palace with style, Qin Louyue is still the dignified chief historian of our palace, he looks more dignified than Qin Louyue. It would be better if he died. I am happy to hear it. "

Chang Ning shot her a look: "Just say this in front of us, but you are not allowed to say it outside, after all, Murong Xian is really Second Aunt's chief manager, so don't make people think that you slapped Second Aunt in the face. Speaking of which, you have already been betrothed, and you will become the eldest concubine of the palace in the future, why do you still not hide or block your words?"

"Here, you and Ah Zhao are not outsiders, am I stupid, can I say this in front of others?" Seeing that Chang Ning frowned and wanted to scold her again, Yixing quickly waved his hands, "Okay, okay, I Is it okay to know that I am wrong? You must think twice in the future, right?"

Qin Zhao also chimed in: "Second sister, don't worry, although the third sister is not smart enough to talk with us, she has never made a mistake in front of outsiders..."

Hearing this, Yixing gritted his teeth: "Azhao, you are the one who provoked me, you are nothing but brains, what is this called? Are you praising me or hurting me?"

The three of them arrived at Yulanju's courtyard while laughing and laughing. Qin Zhao bid farewell to the two of them and went back to Fucui Pavilion.

After walking for a while, Yunshang stepped forward and asked, "Does the county chief want to go to Sanshengjuli to have a look?"

Qin Zhaodao: "No need. It's just a dead steward, so why don't you have to work for me? He's not worthy."

Yun Chang thought for a while, and said again: "Why don't the servants go to inquire about it?"

Qin Zhao shook his head: "No need. Both Yun Yi and Yun Shu stayed in the mansion. I heard that Yun Shu has a younger sister who has always been close to a rough envoy girl from Sansheng Juli. If there is any news, Yun Shu must know Yes, there is no need for you to inquire again. You can ask Yun Shu to call me back later. "

The three of them returned to Fucui Pavilion, it was already sunset.

Listening to the little girls reporting that the Princess is back, Yun Yi and Yun Shu greeted him, went back to the house, and helped Qin Zhao change his clothes. After washing, Yun Chang led the people downstairs, leaving only Yun Shu there to serve .

Yun Shu reported: "At Shangwu, a passer-by found it. At first, they didn't know that it was someone who lived in the three provinces of our mansion, so they started shouting. Seeing the excitement, the concierge of our mansion came over to have a look, and only then did he recognize that it was Steward Murong. I hurried back to the mansion and said. I heard that Yun and the group leader got very angry. Although the second master's face was not good-looking, he didn't say anything. I only told the princess that this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated. And They sent someone to report to Murong Shizi's Mansion. The Jinwu Guard also came. But because it was quiet there, no one saw the fight. The woman guarding the corner gate on the west courtyard wall of our mansion said that she heard some movement, but Because it was far away from the place where the accident happened, I couldn't say anything. Jin Wuwei asked the woman a few words, and then asked someone to release her."

Qin Zhaodao: "You should pay more attention to the movements over there in Sanxingju. This matter has nothing to do with us, so you don't have to deliberately go over to inquire about it."

Yun Shu said with a smile: "I know that after this incident, I have ordered people to keep an eye on the door, so I don't allow people to move around easily. However, I am not in good health these days, I have been going back to see it every day Auntie. The princess knows about this too."

Qin Zhao nodded and said with a smile: "Your mother is not in good health, you should go back and have a look. Speaking of your mother, how about taking the medicine I gave you last time? If you need anything, just talk to Yun Chang said go."

Yun Shu smiled and thanked her: "Princess, don't worry, Sister Yunshang is the most sympathetic to the servants. Except for Princess Chang, I heard that the servant's mother is sick, and she even gave the servant five taels of silver."

Yunshang has a sharp mouth, and all the girls in the courtyard are not afraid of her, but this girl is not used to being strict, she uses both kindness and power, she plays smoothly, and the servants in Fucui Pavilion mention her, no one can help her. Not love and fear.

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "Your sister Yunshang has a bad mouth, but she has a good heart and knows how to sympathize with you."

Yun Shu replied: "Isn't it? The servants all know that she is a knife-mouthed bean curd, but she can't do it if she is not powerful, and it is difficult to control if she is not scary. There are many old people in our courtyard. The Lord has never changed people, if Sister Yunshang is not more powerful, how can those people be willing to stop so easily?"

Qin Zhao smiled, and told Yun Shu: "I heard that Qin Feng and the others went out of the city to visit the old brothers in the garrison camp. If Qin Ming comes back at night, you let him come to see me."

Yun Shu agreed, and retreated outside the screen to watch, letting Qin Zhao rest by himself.

Sansheng Curie, Yunhe's teeth are almost shattered.

Although there is no proof, she is very clear that they have only been back to the capital for three or four years, and Murong Xian is really just one of her supervisors, and he usually walks outside for the purpose of making friends with others, how could it be possible What enemies will there be?Even if there are enemies who want to kill him, it is absolutely impossible to choose to act in a place separated by a wall from the palace.

This was clearly a warning to her.

Besides the brothers and sisters of the Qin family, who else could there be?
It's just that they don't know how much the siblings know, whether they know that she let Murong Xian really touch the matters discussed by the officials of the East Palace.

No, as long as his brother and sister don't know the details of this matter, even if she is not afraid, she must hurry up.

She would never let the brother and sister get what they wanted.

If I knew she should have found a way to kill Qin Zhaocai first, she returned to Chang'an because of her own scruples, and something happened to Qin Zhao, which inevitably made people suspect herself, so she didn't do anything, I don't think it was because of raising a tiger. .

It's even more impossible to kill now.

As soon as Murong Xianzhen died, something happened to Qin Zhao.

A Qin Zhao, there is no need for her to ruin her reputation.

What's more, Anxi's big event is imminent, she can't ruin her natal family's big event just because of a little brother and sister of the Qin family.

As long as her family is successful, she will have support in Chang'an City.The Murong Clan controls the power in the entire Northwest, once the court cares about the Murong Clan, no one dares to offend them easily, even the royal family can only give them face and provide for them.

Yunhe asked Qin Yun and Qin Han to be taken down, hoping to find Qin Huai for discussion.

Qin Han didn't want to, but said: "Mother, this incident must have something to do with Qin Zhao. I suspect she already knew that Shan Xiaoying's death was caused by Supervisor Murong, and she was taking revenge. And she stopped Murong last time." Steward, verbal threats, who else could it be but her? We can't just let her go so easily. Send someone to investigate, I don't believe she hasn't left anything behind."

"Ahan, you don't need to say more, you and Ayun are still young, you don't need to bother about some things, A Niang knows it well. Last time she stopped Murong Xian from threatening with real words, do you think she is stupid? That bitch, she warned clearly It was Murong Xianzhen who was actually protesting against me. It is the same reason to kill Murong Xianzhen and choose a place separated from the palace by a wall. Since she dares to do this, she is not afraid of our investigation."

"If you don't check, why don't you just let her go?"

"Let her go?" Yunhe gritted his teeth and sneered, "Aniang has her own concerns, you don't have to worry about this matter. From today on, you and Ayun are not allowed to go out of Sanshengju's door casually, just go out, even if it is Going to Rongshouju to greet the concubine, there must be people around me, do you understand?"

Qin Yun curled his lips: "Aniang is too careful, but she is only a Qin Zhao, she can still attack me and sister in the palace? Besides, my son's martial arts these years are not for nothing. If you don't believe me, you can't beat her as a cheap girl."

Yun He turned cold, and said: "You and Ah Han are my mother's lifeblood, and my mother must not ask you to do anything. Isn't there a saying among the Han people that they should be careful to make a ten thousand year boat? Wait until she is swept out of the palace. After all, when she gets married, she will have no chance to go out even if she wants to go out late. This is just to harm you, and she has no such ability. These days, you and Ah Han must be careful. That bitch is nothing, Qin Zhe is Even more embarrassing."

Hearing her mention Qin Zhe, Qin Han said: "Brother has been treating me well. I usually cling to him, and I don't see him getting impatient. And sometimes I ask him for something, and he gives it every time. Ah Han thinks that he really likes me as a younger sister, and since he came back, I often go to play in the Yin Garden, why don't I let my daughter inquire about it when I pay in the Yin Garden?"

Yun He listened, thought for a while, and then nodded: "After all, you are a daughter's family, not to mention that you are young, Qin Zhe will not be on guard against you, and you usually act like a well-behaved sister in front of him , and listened to his words, I have a really good relationship with him. You go to inquire, and you won't leave any traces, and you won't be in danger. Even if you let him guard against you, he is a dignified man, and he is indeed your direct relative. Brother, I won't make things difficult for you. It's a good idea. But you have to be careful yourself."

Seeing that Yunhe agreed, Qin Han happily said, "Ah Han has a sense of propriety, mother doesn't have to worry."

Yunhe sent Qin Yun and Qin Han out, and then invited Qin Huailai: "Ah Lang, if Murong Xian really died, it must have been done by that girl Qin Zhao, and this girl should not be underestimated." , Murong Xianzhen happened to be the person from Donggong who went to meet today, if she spoils our affairs, it would be bad, tell me, what shall we do now?"

Qin Huaiyong said: "Even if we know that she did it, we can't touch her now. Not to mention that Qin Zhe is in the capital now, once something happens to Qin Zhao, Qin Zhe will find out the matter even if he is overwhelmed. It's not good for us. This is not the time for extra problems. Besides, even if you don't care about Qin Zhe, Murong Xianzhen just died, and something happened to Qin Zhao. Wouldn't it make people think too much? Those princes are not easy to get along with Let’s ignore Murong Xianzhen’s death for the time being. We’ve been planning on the matter of the East Palace until now. If it is leaked out, we must speed up the pace, and it is best to settle the matter in the next few days. In addition, since the marriage between Qin Zhe and Miss Li of the British government has been arranged, it is time for us to do it. We do not want to deal with this matter. It’s better to come forward, but not in secret. In the next two days, you can find an excuse to go to Shizi’s mansion and discuss with uncle. The affairs of the East Palace and the British government are all left to uncle. Murong Xianzhen Once we die, how many people will look at our house, and every movement we make will be marked."

"Ah Lang thinks the same as I do. I'll go to brother brother tomorrow."
