Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 170 The Identity of the Palace Maid
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression changed immediately. Who doesn't know how much the Concubine Chen is favored in the palace?Unexpectedly, this little maidservant turned out to be the person next to Concubine Chen!

Immediately, in the courtyard, whether it was Yingchun or the head of the guards, everyone's expressions changed for a moment.

It was the head of the guards who came back to his senses first, and said to Chen Yetan, "Since you are the servant girl of the Xianya Palace, I will take you to find the concubine Chen."

Chen Yetan breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded to him, and that Yingchun didn't dare to trouble her any more.

When Zhi Zi's box of cream came to the imperial study, she was told that His Majesty had already gone to the Tai Hospital, so she turned to go to the Tai Hospital again.

At this time, Jin Yantang was standing in Li Chenxiu's pharmacy in the imperial hospital.

Li Chenxiu held the small box of cream in his hand, and said to Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty, I have already checked, and there is no poison in this box of cream, but although the medicinal materials in it can relieve the empress dowager's headache, But the empress dowager is allergic to this medicinal material, so her senses have changed."

So that's the case, so this box of cream is really just a filial piety from the empress to her mother, isn't it?
Jin Yantang always felt that there was something weird about it, but he still couldn't figure out where the weirdness was.

After Li Chenxiu finished speaking, he took a look at the box of cream, his eyes thoughtful.

At this time, Zhizi hurried in, and after saluting Jin Yantang at the door, she said respectfully: "Your Majesty, someone hid this box of cream in the Xianya Palace this morning, and it was discovered by the servants in time. The gel cream is delivered to His Majesty."

Didn't go into detail about the death of the palace maid, Zhizi only briefly explained the cream.

Seeing this, Jin Yantang's eyes froze, he looked at the small round box she handed over, and said in his heart: Cream?
So, he looked at Li Chenxiu, Li Chenxiu stared blankly, but he also understood, stepped forward to take the box of gel cream, and said to the two: "Your Majesty, Miss Zhizi, please let Rong Weichen check this gel cream paste."

The gel cream I received from Nanny Chen is fine, but what about this box?

Jin Yantang thought to himself, and stood patiently in the pharmacy waiting for the results. On the other side, he said lightly to Zhizi: "Don't go yet, just wait here for the results of the doctor Li's examination."

Zhizi breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, she also wanted to find out the result.

So, she bowed her knees to Jin Yantang and said, "My servant thanked Your Majesty!"

There must be something wrong with this box of cream, probably someone wants to repeat the old trick and murder the concubine Chen!
She must help the empress find the murderer...

Zhi Zi thought about it, and then sank down.

When Sishi is approaching, in Xianya Palace.

Shang Kelan followed Wen Chun to a firewood room, the firewood room was piled full of firewood, and the body of a maid was lying there.

The servant girl's eyes were wide open, and the blood dripping from the corners of her mouth was all black and purple. It seemed that she committed suicide by taking poison!

Shang Kelan came in front of her, knelt down, and looked at her face with a silk scarf wrapped around her hands, and couldn't help staring.

On the side, seeing this, Wen Chun couldn't help asking in surprise, "Ma'am, do you know this person?"

Shang Kelan frowned, looked at the maidservant's face, and said to Wen Chun, "I don't know her, but do you feel that this woman looks a lot like a Tatar?"

As soon as these words came out, Wen Chun's face changed, and he quickly squatted down to look at it.

I saw this maidservant with a high nose and deep eyes, unusually fair skin, and a colorful rope tied around her neck.

This colorful rope is the token of the Tatars and their belief in God.

People in the Central Plains do not have this custom.

Sure enough, this palace maid is really a Tatar!
"Your Majesty, if His Majesty finds out, I'm afraid that even if this matter has nothing to do with us, we will have to bear the blame..."

For a moment, Wen Chun's mind went blank, and he didn't know what to do.

Shang Kelan did not respond to her, but touched the muscles on both sides of the maidservant's thighs, and then said to her: "It seems that she is really a Tatar, she should be a Tatar. The muscles on both sides of her leg bones are very strong. The calves are also very strong, which only happens when you ride a horse all the time.”

When he just traveled to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Shang Kelan made up for the history of this dynasty in order to survive better.

The north and east were originally occupied by the white Turkic people. Later, the world was in chaos, and the Tatars attacked the city everywhere. The Turks were defeated by them. The power of the Tatars expanded further and launched an attack on the Great Zhou Dynasty ruled by the former emperor.

Under internal and external troubles, Jin Yantang united with the leftist minister, decisively defeated the late emperor, led the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty to beat the Tatars away, and seriously injured them. Now after three years of recuperation, it seems that the Tatars have become restless and began to infiltrate their power In the palace...

In an instant, these thoughts passed through Shang Kelan's mind one by one.

But who could it be?
In the palace, Concubine Jia had a grudge with her, but she would not use this method to destroy her. After all, she was also from the Great Zhou Dynasty and was the emperor's favorite princess. With her temper, she would disdain to cooperate with the Tatars .

And the rest, she really can't think of...

But in the dark, Shang Kelan always felt that there was something important that she had missed.

She frowned, looked at the face of the palace maid, but couldn't think of anything.

Wen Chun called her several times, but seeing that she didn't answer, he couldn't help but amplified his voice and called out, "Your Majesty?"

Shang Kelan came back to her senses, looked away from the maid's body, looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wen Chun sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, what should we do next, should we bury the body of this maid?"

Shang Kelan shook his head and said: "Get some ice to keep her body, don't let her rot too quickly, put it in the firewood room, you stay here, don't let anyone get close to her, this palace will Tell your Majesty about this."

For the current plan, the matter between the two countries has been involved, and it is no longer an ordinary palace fight relationship, and Jin Yantang must personally decide!
A dim light flashed in Shang Kelan's eyes, she got up and walked outside.

After Wen Chun heard this, he replied: "Yes, empress, I will do it now!"

As soon as the words fell, she followed Shang Kelan out and locked the door of the firewood room, and then went to the House of Internal Affairs to get ice cubes.

Now that Shang Kelan is favored, these people will not embarrass her, it is very easy to get ice.

It was just that Shang Kelan had just returned to the bedroom and sat down for a while, when she heard a noisy sound from the yard, and a little maid hurriedly ran in to report: "Your Majesty, there is a head of the guard outside who brought a maid to see you , to let you know if the palace maid is from our Xianya Palace."

As soon as these words came out, Shang Kelan couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows.

This early in the morning, things happened one after another, which really gave her a headache.

Shang Kelan nodded and said to her: "I know, help me to the main hall and let them in."

The palace maid nodded and said: "Yes, empress."

After that, she supported Shang Kelan and walked towards the main hall, and after waving to the maidservant guarding the door, the maidservant led her away.
