As a medical concubine

Chapter 298 The Murder in the Palace (4)
Qiao'er said it lightly, after all, she is a maid and dare not slander Lord Hou.What she wants to express is actually that since you have enjoyed this man's advantages, you should also bear his shortcomings. The person you marry is not a doll.Either Huazhu didn't understand these principles, or she held her breath and was unwilling to step down.

"Ma'am, you can't lose your temper completely, but you can't let your temper go too much. Yesterday, you were too disrespectful to Lord Hou in front of outsiders." Qiaoer sighed. The young maid, even a daughter as powerful as the eldest lady, knows the importance when getting along with the master.Madam, a listed prostitute, how can she disrespect Lord Hou?

Huazhu really didn't want to continue this topic, so she cut off the thread and said: "Bring the honey, and go to the palace to see the princess."

The palace, the morgue.

Five coffins, five skeletons.At the bottom of the coffin, signs were written: Meiren Li—Chuxiu Palace, Concubine Hui—Changqing Palace, Guiren Li—Chenghuan Hall, Di Bo Liang—East Palace, Concubine Chen—Xiyuan.They are all concubines who fulfill the curse of blood and tears every July.

Eunuch Wang covered his nose, his stomach tumbling: "Master Hou, have you finished checking? Did the water ghost do it?"

Liao Zicheng took off his gloves, closed the toolbox, and glanced at the corpse list written by the authors—according to the corpse list written by the previous authors—the face was bruised and cyanotic, and the swollen and petechial bleeding was obvious. The widespread corpses were cold and bleeding teeth slowly, and then they said expressionlessly: "All the skin and flesh are gone, only the skeleton is left. Judging from the skeleton alone, there are no fatal wounds and no signs of poisoning. Combined with the corpse list, they should be suffocated." die."

Eunuch Wang was shocked: "All... all are suffocated to death? Suffocation means not letting you breathe out? But how is it possible? I heard that if you want to strangle someone to death, you will leave marks on your body. I was present during their autopsies, and there were absolutely no injuries in this regard."

There are many causes of suffocation. In addition to strangulation, obstruction of the airway, compression of the chest and diaphragm, and inhalation of inert gas can all cause suffocation.But these, Liao Zicheng did not intend to discuss in depth with Wang Gonggong, so he said: "It is suffocation, it has nothing to do with the water ghost, and the murderer is more likely to be the same person."

"The same person?" Eunuch Wang's eyelids twitched, and Liao Zicheng asked again: "Where were they all found?"

Eunuch Wang raised his fly whisk and sighed: "They were all next to the white marble statue of Avalokitesvara in Yuhu. They were all wet when they died, but they were not in the lake. Everyone said that it was the water ghost who came ashore and killed them!" "

Liao Zicheng recalled Wu's list of corpses, and said thoughtfully: "That is not the scene of the first crime."

Eunuch Wang thought for a moment, then sighed: "I also ask Lord Hou to find out the truth of these murders and let them rest in peace under the Nine Springs."

Liao Zicheng said calmly, "I will try my best."

Eunuch Wang said: "It's not that I try my best, but I must! The Queen Mother has been so sad about this matter that she can't sleep well. Once in the middle of the night, she was awakened by a nightmare. She always blames herself for not taking good care of the harem, but You said, there are tens of thousands of people in the palace, but she only has one pair of eyes and one pair of hands, how can she manage it?"

After the words fell, a young eunuch ran in with small steps. When he smelled the strong corpse odor, he was so sick that he almost vomited. He covered his mouth and nose and whispered a few words in Eunuch Wang's ear.Eunuch Wang frowned, and said suspiciously: "Really?"

The little eunuch nodded.

Eunuch Wang waved his hand, and the little eunuch stepped back with wind on his feet.Eunuch Wang smiled at Liao Zicheng again: "Mrs. Hou has entered the palace to see the crown princess. The queen mother has newly obtained some colored glaze from the Fusu Kingdom. I want to give one or two pieces to Mrs. Hou. Since Mrs. Hou has entered the palace, it will save me Get out, I'll go get the colored glaze right now, Lord Hou wait a moment."

The East Palace and the Jingyang Palace were in a mess.The court lady and eunuch knelt on the ground outside, no one dared to go forward.

There was a sound of ping-pong-pong from Yilanxuan, and Wang Xin cried for help in pain, but no one dared to rush in.Because at this moment, it is the Northern Qi Prince He Liansheng who is tormenting Wang Xin.

Hua Zhu knocked on the door vigorously, shouting: "His Royal Highness, you open the door! What are you doing? Open the door quickly! Your Royal Highness!"

"Ah—" was Wang Xin's scream.

Yesterday when He Liansheng was sent back to the palace, Huazhu felt that he was not normal. After listening to Shuyun's description of Liu Feng, he was afraid that He Liansheng would become more like Liu Feng. Once he became mad, no one would recognize him. , She found an excuse to enter the palace today, just to find out the truth, and remind Wang Xin to avoid favor for the time being.

When she first arrived at the East Palace, He Liansheng was quite normal, they sat down and chatted for a while, and He Liansheng started to feel sleepy, so Wang Xin helped him back to Yilanxuan for a lunch break.But while he was resting, suddenly Wang Xin's scream was heard.At first, everyone thought they were prostitution in the daytime, and the fighting was too intense, so they didn't take it to heart, and the more they heard, the more something was wrong, so they knelt at the door.

Lady Wen's eyes were swollen from crying, she knelt down and knocked on the door and said, "Your Highness! Your Highness, come out quickly! Your Highness, please don't hurt the Crown Princess!"

Hua Zhu was sweating profusely in anxiety, and with a sharp sweep, the maids and eunuchs all lowered their heads, none of them dared to rush to the prince without fear of death.

Huazhu pushed Miss Wen, and said seriously: "Get out of the way."

Lady Wen got up as she said, and stood not far away.

Huazhu took a step back, lifted her skirt, and kicked it down!
Bang!
The door didn't budge.

Hua Zhu kicked again, kicked and kicked again...

When Liao Zicheng and Eunuch Wang rushed to the scene, they saw Hua Zhu lift up her skirt and kick the princess's door violently without any image.Eunuch Wang's face immediately turned pale with fright, oh my god, this Mrs. Hou is too tough.

Liao Zicheng hurried over, pulled Huazhu behind him, raised his foot and kicked, bang, the door was kicked open.

In the room, Wang Xin was pressed on the table by He Liansheng. He Liansheng's head was covered with scratches, some were made by himself, some were made by Wang Xin, and his powerful palm was pinching Wang Xin's neck tightly. Under the eyes, like a boundless demon realm, filled with the aura of destruction.

Liao Zicheng's cold eyes swept away, he picked up a wooden stick, and knocked it on the back of He Liansheng's neck.

He Liansheng's body froze suddenly, then he rolled his eyes and threw himself on Wang Xin.

Liao Zicheng twisted one hand, dragged He Liansheng and threw him on the bed.
