Chapter 445 Investigation (3)
"Oh." Gu Ningshuang nodded, looked back at Liuying, and ordered, "Tell Eunuch Sun everything you know, and don't have any reservations about Eunuch Sun, understand?"

"Yes." Liu Ying answered with a bow.

"Okay, Miss Gu, you six, Miss Liuying, come with us." Sun Defu flicked the Buddha dust in his hand, turned and left.

Liu Ying glanced at Gu Ningshuang again and followed slowly.

Gu Ningshuang watched Liuying go out with Sun Defu, and suddenly felt something was wrong, but she didn't know what was wrong.

Suddenly, she felt her throat was a little dry, and Fang remembered that she wanted to drink tea, but Liu Ying went out, and she was not used to ordering other maids in Fanghuaxuan, so she had to make tea by herself.

The top-quality white tea, washed with boiling water, exudes a faint fragrance.Even though the water in the imperial capital is different from the water in the south of the Yangtze River, the fragrance of the tea is not affected at all, just like at home.

Gu Ningshuang sat by the window alone, drinking tea while watching the flying snow outside, and sat for an hour.

Someone came in from the outside, it was two strange court ladies, Gu Ningshuang took a careful look at them, and made sure that she had never seen these two court ladies before, so she held the teacup for a while, and then put it on the table.

"Where does Miss Gu live?" A tall court lady asked the mother who was sweeping the snow outside.

The cleaning mother bowed and said, "Miss Gu lives here. I'll take a few there."

The two maids came in with the nanny, and when they saw Gu Ningshuang sitting by the window, she stepped forward to salute: "My servant Zisu (Qing He) has seen Miss Gu."

"Is there something you two came to see me for?" Gu Ningshuang looked at the two suspiciously.

"Back to the girl, Liu Ying can't come to serve the girl, Eunuch Sun sent the two of us to serve the girl." Zisu replied.

"What's wrong with Liuying?" Gu Ningshuang couldn't sit still for a while, she stood up from the couch, "What's the matter with her?"

"This servant doesn't know either." Zisu bowed her body and said gently, "The servant just listened to Eunuch Sun's orders to serve Miss Gu's food and daily life. If the girl has anything to do, just tell the two of us."

Gu Ningshuang knew that these two were trained by Sun Defu, and if they didn't want to talk, she couldn't ask anything.So he didn't say anything more, just waved his hands to signal them to back down, and sat back weakly.

What happened to Liuying?How could it be related to the murder case?Gu Ningshuang's heart was like a pot of boiling water, turbulent and disorderly.

The so-called homicide case... Thinking about it, there was only one homicide case in the harem these days, and that was Zhao Yuan's suicide by hanging herself, but Zhao Yuan...didn't she hang herself?How could Liu Ying be involved?

This can't be Liuying!Gu Ningshuang stood up suddenly again, Liuying knew many things about her, and she also relied on Liuying to communicate with the outside world, without her, she would really be a bird in this cage.

Gu Ningshuang walked to the hanger, took her cloak and went out, but when she reached the door, she was blocked by Zisu and Qinghe.

"Girl, you want to go out?" Zisu stepped forward and took the cloak from Gu Ningshuang's arm, unfolded it, and put it on her skillfully and considerately.

"I'm going to see the empress." Gu Ningshuang said, stretched out her hand to pull the strap of the cloak and walked out.

"Miss." Qing He stepped forward to stop Gu Ningshuang, "We can't go to Fengzhang Palace without the Queen's order. This is His Majesty's oral order."

Gu Ningshuang's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Girl, if you really have something to do, why don't you ask someone to invite Eunuch Sun?" Zi Su leaned forward and asked.

"Forget it." Gu Ningshuang snorted angrily and turned back to the room.It's just that after walking two steps, the cloak on his body was untied and he hadn't hung it back, a little eunuch just happened to come outside, and shouted in a shrill voice: "Miss Xuan Gu, the queen's empress, is going to Fengzhang Hall."

Gu Ningshuang looked back at Qinghe coldly: "Why, don't you put on a cloak for me?"

Qing He quickly reached out to take the cloak in Gu Ningshuang's hand and went forward to put it on her, and tied the palace sash carefully, even the wind hair was gently patted neatly, Fang leaned forward and said: "Girl, it's done."

Gu Ningshuang glanced at her coldly, turned and went out.

Liuying has already been imprisoned in the palace prison at this time, but she doesn't say anything.The palace warden showed Qian Fen's confession to her, and she insisted that it was Qian Fen who spat blood.However, the palace supervisors were not easy to deal with, even though she refused to admit anything, they still detained her in the palace supervisor just based on Qian Fan's testimony.

Gu Ningshuang entered the Fengzhang Hall, seeing that everyone inside and outside the Fengzhang Hall was sullen, not as casual as usual, her heart sank a little more.

The queen was still on the low couch where she drank tea and chatted. Behind her was a long window with magnificent lacquerwork carvings. The sun shone in through the window lattice and formed a dazzling halo behind her, hiding the expression on her face in the sunlight. inside.

"Ningshuang sees the empress." Gu Ningshuang knelt down and saluted after entering.

"Get up." Han Qian put the tea cup in his hand aside, looked at Gu Ningshuang who was kneeling in front of her, she hadn't seen her for a while, and she lost so much weight, it seems that the water and soil in the harem really don't support people .

"Thank you, empress." Gu Ningshuang bowed again, thanked her and stood up.

Han Qian looked at Gu Ningshuang Pingting's figure, smiled lightly and said, "Having lived in the palace for so long, are you still used to it?"

"Thank you for your concern, I'm still used to it." Gu Ningshuang leaned back and replied.

"But, I see you have lost a lot of weight!" Han Qian sighed.

"It's okay." Gu Ningshuang lowered her head.

"I called you here today to show you something." Han Qian said, winking at Apple.

Apple bowed, turned around and showed Gu Ningshuang a confession.

Gu Ningshuang didn't have time to ask any more questions, so she hurriedly unfolded it and took a rough look. Suddenly, she felt a chill down her spine, and she staggered and knelt on the ground.

"This is impossible..." Gu Ningshuang murmured.

"Liuying is your personal servant girl. Even if you don't instruct her to do what she does, you should understand it." Han Qian said lightly, "Gu Ningshuang, I think I know you well. You are scheming, but you are kind. However, I never thought that you would be such a person."

"Mother Mingjian! I don't know anything about this!" Gu Ningshuang knelt on the ground and begged, "Liuying has been with me for a long time, she likes to play tricks, but this... a matter of human life, she How dare you!"

"Whether she dares or not, things have already come out." Han Qian sneered, "Even if you really don't know, but she is your personal servant girl, you have at least one sin of lax teaching, right? Neither is the Zhao family. Xiaomen Xiaohu, Zhao Yuan died in the palace, the Zhao family now hates the palace, and Princess Jialan, Princess Heng... so many of them hate the palace, and Zhao Yuan's death is a fuse .”
