The rebirth of the demon concubine

Chapter 187

Things were just as Yuan Lie wanted to think. Before the sixth frontier at the beginning of the year, emergency documents came, saying that Simon had assembled soldiers and horses on the border to help Rongnu. After that, there were emergency documents every other day for four consecutive days. It was sealed that Simon's soldiers had already handed over soldiers at the border of Zhao Kingdom.

Emperor Qing'an was furious, and immediately ordered Su Guogong to be the Marshal of Zhengxi, and the fourth prince Yuanwei supervised the army to leave immediately. Not long after, it was reported that the bandits in the east were raging, and many officials in the east died unexpectedly, so he specially ordered the king of Shenjun to transfer the land soldiers Ma aids the eastern region.The prince personally went to the east to sit in town and direct the bandit rampage.

"Your Highness, be careful all the way. If there is anything uncertain, Dad's soldiers will definitely help you." Seeing Shangguan's weeping expression on his face, Huo Zhixin stood aside without saying a word, slightly lowered her head, Huo Zhixin finished what should be said at night, and now that there are so many women around, Huo Zhixin doesn't want to say anything more.

"Well, I know." Yuan Lie replied, but his eyes were on Huo Zhixin, rubbing the sachet on his waist with his right hand, it was given to him by Huo Zhixin the night before, and it contained medicine to cure all kinds of poisons pill.Yuan Lie saw a group of women crying, which made Yuan Lie feel a little disgusted in his heart. He didn't say anything more, and after leaving the mansion, all the women changed their expressions of dying just now, and wiped the corners of their eyes with handkerchiefs. leave.

"Miss, these people are really better at acting than the second lady." Gui He returned to the yard and complained helplessly, "Look at how crying when the crown prince was about to leave just now... Tsk tsk, he recovered in a blink of an eye."

Seeing Gui He shaking her head for a while, Huo Zhixin smiled and said nothing, but Nanny Wu (Wu's family) at the side said angrily: "You little hoof is used to chewing your tongue, so you can talk about this?" Gui He Subconsciously hiding behind Huo Zhixin, Madam Wu's eyes widened when she saw it, and then Huo Zhixin said: "Okay, don't say a few words, Gui He, you are too, if this happens someday, if the Crown Princess finds a reason I don't care about punishing you."

"Your maidservant knows." Gui He's heart trembled, the crown prince is not here now, her own lady is definitely not good at confronting the crown princess head-on, if she makes more trouble, she really can't make it through.Seeing Gui He's expression of knowing his mistake, Nanny Wu stopped talking, instead, she waited until she got back to the house, and when all the servants had retreated, Nanny Wu said, "Mother, Second Miss Su is missing. ..."

"Cousin Elegy is missing?" Huo Zhixin was taken aback, and even her voice was filled with urgency, she asked, "When did it happen?"

"The people in Su Guogong's mansion discovered it this morning, and they probably left last night." Nanny Wu reported the news from her own mouth to Huo Zhixin, "However, it seems that someone here secretly helped Second Miss Su leave."

"Who?" Huo Zhixin frowned, she couldn't believe that Su Yange had left and she didn't know that she had received the message until after she left.

"It seems to be Simon's." Mother Wu thought for a while, and said, "Could it be——the second young master?" The second young master Wu mother said was naturally Bai Dongming, Huo Zhixin's heart sank, since Bai Dongming went there After I got Simon, I sent back two letters, just saying that everything is fine, don't read it, and don't know anything else.

"Shan Xun went to his cousin, is there any news?" Although Huo Zhixin knew that Bai Dongming and Simon were inextricably linked, that didn't mean that the Simon who helped Su Elegy belonged to Bai Dongming.

"Not yet."

"Pass down the order to find out the traces of Elegy's cousin and the situation at all costs. Of course, we must be very careful about this matter. Now the relationship between Simon and Zhaoguo is very tense. If we don't act rashly, or something happens, we will be in a very difficult situation." passive."

"Slavery." After Madam Wu retreated, Huo Zhixin rubbed her forehead with a tired face. The matter of Bai Dongming, as well as the relationship between the Duke of Yu's mansion and Simon, made Huo Zhixin wonder, could it really be that at the beginning? The government of the State of Yu is collaborating with the enemy and treason?Huo Zhixin sat there quietly, and passed the morning without knowing it.

At noon, Huo Zhixin ate her lunch and went to sleep for a while. After the sun passed, Dang Gui came into the house to help Huo Zhixin dress and wash. Huo Zhixin listened to the quiet voice outside the house and asked, "Why is it so quiet this afternoon?"

"Back to your mother, it seems that the concubine Wang is beating up another slave in the afternoon and sent other slaves to watch the torture, so the other sisters have gone, and the slaves are staying to serve your mother." Angelica's voice trembled, "That scream The voice slaves can be heard here, but now they are gone anyway.”

"Hmm... let the small kitchen make some food, I'm a little hungry." Huo Zhixin's calm expression made Dang Gui secretly admire her: as expected of a lady, she is not afraid of such things!Huo Zhixin didn't feel it, and Wang Yuhui's violent nature Yuan Lie also told herself a lot, anyway, beating people to death was probably aimed at Shangguan, so what was she struggling with?

Sure enough, after Huo Zhixin finished her afternoon tea beautifully, Gui He came back with a disheveled face, Shan Yao had a sullen face but could faintly see her paleness, Yuan Tao's eyes were red, obviously she had already cried once.Huo Zhixin specially recruited the three of them to ask questions.

In the end, only Shan Yao honestly described the scene he just watched.

"The Concubine Wang just had someone beat a servant from the foot, every inch of the bone was beaten up until all the bones in the lower body were broken... The Concubine Wang said that this is the end of eating the inside out. The other servant, the Concubine Wang The empress ordered people to beat her from the hands, all her limbs were broken, and finally she was punished with a cane. Said, this is the fate of meddling in other people's yards."

"Then, where is the last servant?"

"Back to the lady, it's from Shangyijian." With Shan Yao saying this, Huo Zhixin could probably guess who the maid in Shangyijian was instructed by, and this time she was probably a scapegoat.And the person behind this who would rather be tortured than spit out is probably the Crown Princess Shangguan.

"Okay, come back and help me pick up some body-replenishing medicines and take them back to the concubine Wang." As soon as the crown prince left, Wang Yuhui dared to beat someone to death blatantly. Where's the concubine?
