The first peasant concubine of the prosperous age

Chapter 284 Inquiring the Truth (3)
She opened her mouth, wanting to ask something, but couldn't ask, even though her heart was as cold as frost at this moment, she still maintained a moment of calmness in her mind, she knew why she entered the palace, so she had to think too much about everything. many layers.

Yu Muchen naturally also noticed Liu Aimeng's gaze, and shook her head at her, then Liu Aimeng understood what he meant, and quietly withdrew from this scene that did not belong to her.

The rest of the people seemed to have left one after another, so Yang Yaoyao ordered Eunuch Liu to arrange a job and a few officials to record pen and ink on the spot. She wanted to have the autopsy done and to record everything in Concubine Xiao's palace.

After the examination was completed and the officials recorded clearly, Yang Yaoyao was very dissatisfied. She pointed to some details and began to say: "Judging from the stiffness of Concubine Xiao's body, Concubine Xiao died within a quarter of an hour, that is to say, When someone notified me, she might still be angry at that time, but when everyone arrived at the scene, Concubine Xiao really died."

"Also, look, does this room have a strange smell?"

"Indeed, it is a light fragrance."

"Yes, according to the principle, this incense is used by the people, but it is burned in Concubine Xiao's bedroom, isn't it too strange, and Concubine Xiao eats and uses it, you have to check it carefully, Eunuch Liu, you Let all the maids and eunuchs serving Concubine Xiao gather here, I have something to ask them."

When Yang Yaoyao came out with a series of calm analysis, Eunuch Liu was greatly surprised. He looked at Yang Yaoyao with deep meaning, and his attitude was no longer loose.

The extreme officials present were also shocked, Yang Yaoyao was indeed unparalleled in wisdom.

When all the people gathered, Yang Yaoyao also saw the palace maid holding the corpse of Concubine Xiao Gui just now, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, if she dared to plot against her, she had to be prepared, it was useless to have a guilty conscience.

"I gathered everyone together to ask you a few things. If you answer honestly, you can live. If you lie, you must be careful of your lives. Since I entered the court, everyone seems to not know my code of conduct. , Well, now this officer will say that one thing I do is one, and the other is two. If I make a mistake, I will be punished, and if I do the right thing, I will also be rewarded. Today’s matter is obviously a big deal, so All kinds of torture and death may become punishments, I believe everyone will be familiar with it." Yang Yaoyao sat on the chair next to him and asked the guards to protect everything in Concubine Xiao's palace, then looked at everyone coldly and said.

After finishing speaking, Yang Yaoyao stopped speaking, but gave everyone time to react. After a while, Yang Yaoyao clapped his hands and asked people to take out the paper and pens for all the maids and eunuchs.

"Now all you hold are paper and pens. Those who can write can write, and those who can't write can draw. During the period when you are writing and drawing, no one can talk, let alone whisper. Once you find cheating, you will be punished on the spot." Responsibility, well, now you will start to write down what you know, about Concubine Xiao Gui’s every move in the past three days, as well as what she ate, what she said, who she had contact with, and how the decorations in the palace were arranged. , who arranged it, everything is fine and detailed, the more detailed the better, the more detailed the more rewards, the jewels here are the rewards, it depends on how everyone behaves, but some people think that you have helped the dark place If your master works, your family members will be well settled, but have you ever thought that once you die, your family members may also be killed and silenced? I want you to say, are you too naive to believe in the one you are loyal to behind your back? People, and if some of you are threatened and don't want to tell the truth, then I think this official is more ruthless than them. They are direct threats, but I am the one who directly deceives the emperor and participates in the murder of the harem noble concubine , It’s not an exaggeration to copy and chop all over the family..."

Yang Yaoyao almost acted both hard and soft. What he said made the hearts of the people present tremble. Some people with guilty conscience were a little unsteady while holding the paper.

Yang Yaoyao was not in a hurry, as if he was giving them time to prepare mentally.

Time passed little by little, and a quarter of an hour later, Yang Yaoyao called "start", and everyone began to write and draw on paper, not daring to raise their heads. Yang Yaoyao mobilized a few guards and asked them to watch everyone carefully. No, just pull it out.

Yang Yaoyao sat on the chair, directing everything, as if he had an illusion, and returned to the feeling of giving directions in modern times. At that time, she was the queen of the night, controlling everything, but now everything has changed, she changed Times have changed places, but the road to the peak of power has just begun.

After everyone finished writing, Yang Yaoyao asked someone to collect the paper, and only said that in a day later, everyone would be answered, and those who were rewarded and those who were punished would be selected. He also said that he was about to find the murderer. There is still time to break through.

After many maids and eunuchs left, Yang Yaoyao asked people to watch these people in the dark, and reported to himself whenever there was trouble.

In order to ensure that all those who framed her can be found out, Yang Yaoyao doesn't go home at night and lives directly in the palace.

It was dark at night, Yang Yaoyao was sitting in the yard, unable to fall asleep, she was thinking about the day's affairs, analyzing all the situation, fearing that Zhang Xi would be worried, someone sent a letter to him.

I sleep with Zhang Xi every day. Tonight without him by my side, I am not used to it, and I can't sleep. She is waiting for the news. I believe that after her knocking, someone will lose their composure and make some secret moves. If you follow the vine, everything will be easier to handle.

Just when she was waiting for the news and couldn't fall asleep, the sound of the flute suddenly came from the night sky. The sound of the flute carried a melodious and moving melody. There are too many stories, and too much sadness and helplessness.

For a moment, Yang Yaoyao's heart ached, she walked out of the room, and walked towards the direction of the sound step by step. When she saw the silver figure in the night, her footsteps paused. She didn't expect it to be the prince Luo Ranlian. Could it be that he also has an unknown sad story related to Ning Yuexin?
Seemingly hearing Yang Yaoyao's footsteps, the sound of the flute stopped abruptly. Luo Ranlian turned her head slowly, saw that it was Yang Yaoyao, turned her eyes slightly, and said lightly, "Girl, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Yang Yaoyao pouted, didn't he sleep too? "Why is His Royal Highness sad?"

"For the vagaries of the world, and the boundless world."

"The world is vast, but it is not as good as the human heart. If the human heart is broadened, everything will suddenly become clear." Yang Yao looked into the distance, thinking of his family in his heart, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"Girl has always been a transparent person, and has never changed." Luo Ranlian said suddenly, with a hint of loneliness but also a hint of joy in her tone.

Yang Yaoyao's heart skipped a beat. Looking at Luo Ranlian, she was puzzled by what he said just now. What is constant? Could it be that he knew herself before? It's impossible. She has been staying in Baihua Village, Yizhou all the time. How could it be possible to know someone like the prince in such a remote place? She was amused by the thought that just came to her.
