The psychic Xi ​​Lan

Chapter 69

What made Concubine Yu Gui's face change was nothing else, but the wooden figure filled with silver needles in the box containing the Qianzhu dance clothes!

On the wooden figure, the words 'Yu Zhenqi' were written in red liquid, which was the boudoir name of Concubine Yu.

Seeing this filth, several maidservants who had handled the dance clothes immediately knelt down and explained, trembling and chattering: "Your concubine forgive me, my concubine forgive me, I don't know how this came about, last night When Concubine Li asked the servants to go to the small storeroom to get this dance dress, it was still fine!"

Long Xilan glanced at the wooden man in the box. This kind of thing used for cursing can be large or small. If the person who is cursing, what kind of divine power can he really use, such as a piece of powerful magic weapon, it can be cursed. There must be nothing good about the person, if not, it is just a bluff, playing a role in scaring.

Li Huai hurriedly comforted him: "Mother Concubine must not get angry and hurt her body, let Ji Hai handle this matter."

It seemed that Concubine Yu Gui was really frightened, her complexion, which was fine just now, collapsed in an instant.

Long Xilan filially helped her to rest on the couch in the inner room, but found that the other party's hands were shaking.

A woman like Concubine Yu, who spent half her life in the harem, was frightened like this by a wooden dummy?Looking at the situation, she felt that there was a reason for the incident, so she tentatively asked: "Mother Concubine, did that kind of wooden figure appear more than once?"

Concubine Yu looked over in a daze, gradually becoming suspicious. "Jin Hua, how do you know?"

If it was the first time it happened, she couldn't have lost her mind so much. It must have happened before and after, and the reason was still unknown, which made the person nervous.

"Jin Hua is just guessing!" She answered truthfully.

Xi Lan is now her son's concubine, so she is naturally someone Yu Guifei can trust. When asked this way, Yu Guifei said: "About two months ago, the first wooden figure like that was found in Luxi Pavilion. There is a name engraved on the wooden figurine."

Xi Lan asked: "How many are there in total, and under what circumstances were they discovered? Has the queen mother mentioned this to the prince?"

"Including today's one, there should be three. The first one is the clothes sent by the Shangyi Bureau to Ben Gong, and found a wooden figure wrapped in the clothes, and Abi's name was engraved on the wooden figure with blood."

"Abby?"

Concubine Yu explained: "That is the dowry maid who followed me into the palace before."

She nodded and asked, "Where is Abi now?"

When the other party heard this, there was another trace of panic in their eyes. "Abi, she... died suddenly two months ago!"

"Death?" Xi Lan's expression darkened, but she didn't have a trace of fear.

Concubine Yu saw it, she had heard from Li Huai earlier that this Miss Ji Er had extraordinary courage and courage, she was beyond comparison with ordinary women, seeing this, it was indeed as he said.

So when she asked about these things, Concubine Yu dared to tell her everything.

"What about the second wooden man?"

"The second wooden figure was found a month ago. It was on the bed of Ben Gong. The name of little Deng Zi was written on the wooden figure in blood." Concubine Yu pointed to the bed behind the screen. , stacked squarely.

Xi Lan guessed that if the wooden figure really used the curse effect, there should not be only one wooden figure, so she asked, "What else is there on the second wooden figure besides the name?"

"There was a thorn in the wooden man's throat. Later, little Dengzi died inexplicably in the room, and his throat was pierced by his chopsticks! He was still wearing pajamas." After finishing speaking, Concubine Yu's expression changed, " On the wooden figurine that appeared this time, Bengong's name was written on it, and so many needles were inserted on it..."

Xi Lan hurriedly comforted: "Mother, don't worry, there is a murderer in this palace, as long as we find this person, he will definitely not do anything to you."

After finishing, he called the other two maidservants to accompany Yu Guifei.He came out by himself and went to the living room, where Li Huai was interrogating the maidservants who had been in contact with Wu Yi.

Everyone was sure that apart from them, no one else could touch the dance clothes, so if it was artificial, the person who put the wooden dummy must be one of these three people.

Li Huai interrogated them one by one, but he didn't seem to find anything special, so he put the three of them under surveillance together.Seeing Xi Lan come out, he sent away the other people and told her: "I know a thing or two about that wooden man."

"Oh, is your lord willing to tell Jin Hua?" Long Xilan knew the name of Concubine Yu Gui that had been written on the wooden figurine. If the real culprit was not found and the curse was broken, Concubine Yu Guifei would die soon. It just so happened Let her hit, she naturally can't stand idly by.

And this matter has been in Li Huai's heart for some days, and he also has this intention, and wants to talk to her.

"15 years ago, when the king was still living in the palace, someone in the palace used this filthy technique to harm the king. At that time, the father was furious and searched the whole palace, and he was determined to find the person who practiced this technique. Come out, and then in the entire harem, there are a total of 33 people implicated in it, because it is not certain who among them did this, and the 33 people are all suspected, and finally..." Li Huai's eyes lighted up when he said this There was a slight flicker, and it could be seen that he felt very guilty for this matter.

Xi Lan asked speculatively, "In the end, these 33 people were all executed together?"

Li Huai nodded.

Her heart sank, among those 33 people back then, if there was a murderer among them, but most of them were wronged, it could not be ruled out that the murderer might not be among the 33 people, and is still alive in this palace. Even, live well.

"So, my lord, do you suspect that this wooden man has something to do with that old case 15 years ago?"

"Yes. This king has seen the wooden man with my name engraved back then. It is very similar to the one today, but it was not written in blood at that time, but engraved on it."

Hearing this, Long Xilan raised her eyebrows slightly, turned around and walked towards the room where the three maidservants were imprisoned.

Li Huai knew that she must have remembered something or discovered something, so he followed her there.

After she arrived in that room, she carefully looked at the three faces, and then pointed to one of them and asked, "What's your name?"

Like the other two maidservants, that maidservant was very frightened, and even her voice trembled when she asked her name!

"Peach... peach red!"

"Tao Hong, stretch out your hand and show it to Princess Ben."

Tao Hong obediently stretched out her hand to show her. She looked at the palm, then the back of the hand, and finally at the fingertips. She already had some eyebrows in her heart.

"Are you born in April?" she asked again.

"Yes, princess, the maidservant's birthday is the fourth day of April!"

At this moment, Tao Hong was very surprised. It was the first time she met the princess, and the princess knew that she was born in April.

"17 years old this year?"

Even Li Huai couldn't understand what she was doing now, but Li Huai didn't ask, and stood quietly by the side waiting for Tao Hong's answer.

"Yes, the princess, the maidservant is 17 years old this year! But how does the princess know?"

She straightened up and smiled.

"Her name is Taohong, she should have been born during the peach blossom season!"

Li Huai asked doubtfully: "So the princess guessed?"

"Well, I guess!" She answered readily.

However, how could it be guessed?She looked at the pink palmistry, and she could see that she was a yin face.

What is Yin Rong body?It is the kind of physique that is prone to evil spirits and is easily fascinated by ghosts.

But generally, it will be a person with a shady body, which can be seen in palmistry and horoscope.

She saw that Tao Hong was about the same age as her, and in the same year as her, the time coincided with Yin Rong's body, which was the fourth day of April.When she asked, she naturally didn't dare to ask people carefully if it was the fourth day of April, so she asked about April.

Since she can be sure that one of these maidservants has a yin body, and she saw that the fingertips of the other party have turned black, she must have lost a lot of yang recently, and there must be ghosts behind her. Come to think of it, it is really the same as that one 15 years ago. Things are related!
The murderer, most likely, is really not human!

Seeing what she was thinking secretly, Li Huai guessed that she must know something, so he asked, "Jin Hua, did you find any problems?"

She was about to answer when a woman's scream suddenly came from the main compartment over there.

Li Huai ran towards the main room together with her, and entered the bedroom where Concubine Yu lived, and saw Concubine Yu lying on the ground, screaming that her feet hurt.

"Ah, it hurts, there is something in Ben Gong's embroidered shoes..."

They saw that Concubine Yu's embroidered shoes were stained with blood, Li Huai couldn't care less, and immediately knelt down to check the condition of Concubine Mother's feet, Xi Lan had already ordered someone to call the imperial physician.

Because there was a lot of blood on the foot, but I couldn't find where the wound was, I had to wait for the imperial doctor to come, wash the sole of the foot, and carefully search for the place of bleeding. Yes, and Queen Nalan's.

But then, the imperial physician actually pulled out a three-inch steel needle from Concubine Yu's foot!
