As a medical concubine

Chapter 307 The Truth Comes Out (3)
When he turned to the page "The Art of Suffering in the Eastern Palace", Wang Xin leaned over and saw a vague outline drawn on it, except for the clean and beautiful chin. He couldn't help asking, "Who did you draw? Liao Zicheng?"

Huazhu took a closer look and took a weak breath: "Huh? Don't tell me, it really looks a bit like it."

"Like?" Wang Xin caught the sensitive words in Huazhu's words, "Could it be that you didn't draw him?"

Huazhu shook her head, held the brush again, and drew a sedan chair: "The day Yan Hua and Yan Shu cursed the Holy One and framed you, I went to Yuhu Lake, and at that time, a large sedan chair carried by eight people passed by me. I only saw a chin, male and female indistinguishable, and then I smelled a faint familiar fragrance, which was somewhat similar to Liao Zicheng's, but not exactly the same. He also stopped at the white marble Guanyin for a while, which was strange."

"Who is following the sedan chair?" Wang Xin asked.

"A strange eunuch."

"Only one eunuch? In the imperial palace, only the queen mother, the emperor, the empress, the prince and I are eligible to use the eight-person sedan chair, but if we walk around the palace, it is impossible to be accompanied by only one palace man. It's like an intuition. Man, could it be Liao Zicheng?"

Huazhu shook her head again: "I asked him, he never sat in a sedan chair in the palace. Could it be the Holy One?"

"Let me think about it." Wang Xin raised her head, "Oh, to be honest, I have been in the palace for so long, and I haven't even seen the face of the Holy One. , so his heirs are weak. No, it can’t be the Holy One! I’m sure!”

"How to say?"

"You went to Yuhu Lake after you left the East Palace, right?"

"Correct."

"That's it." Wang Xin patted the table and said firmly, "After you leave, I will go to accompany the queen to have dinner. The maid of Fengqi Palace told me that the queen has gone to Longyang Palace, and the queen still rested at the palace that night. There. So I am sure that the person in the sedan chair is not the Holy One."

There are four doubts that surfaced.

[-]. Who is the person whose rape is like smoke?Why did Madam Yu cover up for him?Motivation for rape, infatuation (tentative).

Second, in the name of the curse of blood and tears, who was the murderer who killed the five concubines?The motive for the murder is unclear.

Three, who is in the sedan chair?I don't know what's going on in the palace.

Fourth, is there any connection between these three things?
Among them, the person who is raped and dyed like smoke should be the admirer who is dyed like smoke.But this condition alone cannot narrow down the search scope, because Ran Ruyan is too beautiful and excellent, and there are too many people who admire her.That night coincided with a palace banquet, and male guests gathered.

Here, Hua Zhu was doing analysis on the paper, and there, Wang Xin said thoughtfully, "If... it happened after Yan Hua's incident was revealed, I have a rough... guess."

"Tell me." Huazhu stopped writing and looked at her seriously.

"The Yan family was exempted from the misfortune of being implicated. It seems that the Queen Mother saw the face of you and Liao Zicheng. As for the Fuyang Hou Mansion, I think that the person in the sedan chair may have entered the palace to meet the Queen Mother, and pleaded with the Queen Mother to let the Queen Mother Spare the Xiangyang Marquis."

After Wang Xin finished speaking, Huazhu suddenly remembered the scene she saw through the window in Master Yu Er's room: Master Yu was leading the horse, and Princess Changle was riding on it with a smile...

Yu Shizi is about the same age as Princess Changle, so Marquis Yu...could it really be Princess Changle's father?
"What are you thinking?" Wang Xin shook Huazhu's little hand.

"Oh, something that has nothing to do with the case." Even if Marquis Yu is the Queen Mother's third man, it doesn't matter to her.Huazhu wrapped the hair hanging down her cheeks and fixed it with a hairpin.

At this time, Lady Wen knocked on the door, twisting the lychee rewarded by the queen in her hand.But Huazhu noticed that her hand shaking the lychee was slightly trembling, so she asked, "What's wrong?"

Lady Wen shuddered before answering in a low voice: "Fengqi Palace is dead."

It turned out that a little maid was suffocated to death in the underground storage room of Fengqi Palace. The little maid had been missing for three days. Everyone thought that she was the same as the previous medical lady, she made some mistakes and slipped out of the palace.Unexpectedly, Lady Wen went to visit the queen today in the name of Wang Xin. The queen felt relieved, so she asked Mammy Zhao to take out the lychee and give it to Wang Xin.But when Mother Zhao opened the storage room, she found that the little maid had died inside.It happened that Liao Zicheng was playing chess with the Queen Mother in the Taihe Palace, and the Queen invited him to have an autopsy.After the inspection, it was concluded that death was caused by suffocation.

Huazhu tapped the booklet a few times with a pen. The storage room of Fengqi Palace is a completely enclosed space. Could it be the first crime scene of the concubines?

If it is, then there will be a lot of entanglement, because the owner of Fengqi Palace... is the queen!

After leaving the East Palace, Huazhu found Liao Zicheng, who had played chess with the Queen Mother for an hour in the Taihe Palace, and his whole body exuded a smell of incense.

Hua Zhu's face sank.

Liao Zicheng pinched her cheeks and smiled softly: "I'm jealous again, that's the queen mother, she can be my grandmother at this age."

The queen mother is also a woman, but Huazhu feels uncomfortable when a female creature approaches him, even a fly.Especially during the Cold War, this kind of discomfort was magnified infinitely, but Huazhu couldn't go to the Taihe Palace to find the Queen Mother to be serious, so she could only vent her anger on him, brushed his hand away coldly, and said: " Don't put gold on your face, even if you go home and come out with three or five aunts, I won't say anything."

Liao Zicheng's eyes trembled slightly, as if he had suppressed some complicated emotions and an imperceptible grievance in his eyes, and said calmly: "Have you heard about the prince?"

"Ah."

"I didn't stay in the Taihe Palace to play chess for the sake of playing chess itself. I checked the Queen Mother's tone, and she seemed to... intend to dethrone He Liansheng."

Hua Zhu's eyebrows twitched. If even the queen mother agreed to abolish the prince, then the East Palace might really change hands... Is the mother-child relationship between the queen mother and the emperor really as cold as the rumors?

Liao Zicheng raised his hand, habitually going to hold the Huazhu, paused, then took it back, and put it behind his back: "The storage room of Fengxi Palace matches the characteristics of the first crime scene, go ask Ask the Queen."

In Fengqi Palace, the queen was holding on to the railing and was nauseated and retching. The prince killed the courtiers in the morning was enough to make her feel bad, how could she turn around and die another court lady?
