Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 181
In the side hall, Shang Kelan had a meal with all the concubines. After Zhizi served her a bowl of porridge, she asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to inquire about the news of those two in the hall?"

Before Shang Kelan could speak, Wen Chun frowned, and said thoughtfully: "It's not right to do this, then Wang Yifeng should be a person with extremely strong martial arts. When he came in just now, there were so many people, but this palace Only the sound of his footsteps could not be heard."

On the side, Chen Yetan unceremoniously took a piece of cake and ate it in his mouth, and said in agreement: "This is true, that Wang Yifeng is indeed not simple, his internal strength and lightness kung fu have reached a certain level of cultivation, and his age If you can achieve this level of accomplishment easily, if you put it in the Jianghu, then you will be a well-known master!"

Although eating and sleeping were silent, Shang Kelan gave everyone the authority to be free, and there were not so many rules to control them.

In addition, these concubines were already gossiping, and they are still whispering about who is the real culprit who murdered the Queen Mother.

Shang Kelan ate food quietly to replenish her strength, and did not participate in their conversation.

However, after Chen Yetan finished eating the pastry, he wiped his hands and whispered to Shang Kelan, "Hey, ma'am, I checked, that Wang Yifeng is really the guard who assassinated your elder brother!"

Hearing this, Shang Kelan paused slightly with the hand of the spoon.

She looked at Chen Yetan, then made a silent gesture to her, and said: "Don't tell anyone about this, since you have achieved your goal, find a chance to go out of the palace."

Chen Yetan's eyes widened, and he said, "Impossible, that guy shot me with a hidden weapon, and I haven't taken revenge yet, how can I leave the palace?"

On the side, Zhizi frowned, looked at her and said: "You are now Tan Xiang, the second-class maidservant next to the empress, and the maidservant has to look like a maidservant. In the palace, you can't follow your temper. Who will you be?" Everyone has to follow the rules.”

Chen Yetan blushed slightly, and said, "Oh, then I'd better behave myself and stop going out to cause trouble."

Wen Chun looked at Shang Kelan worriedly, because she still remembered that Shang Kelan spoke before, and they were in big trouble.

After everyone rested for a while, Jin Yantang ordered everyone to go to the main hall and start to rehear the case.

After the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, the queen mother looked much better, and her complexion was not so ugly.

Zhao Kehan ​​didn't care to focus on the concubine Chen and the empress, but only took care of the empress dowager, praying in his heart that the empress dowager would have nothing bad or bad.

And Nanny Chen was escorted back to the main hall.

The queen and concubine Chen stood beside Nanny Chen.

I only heard Fu Qingxi standing in the main hall and reporting: "Your Majesty, according to your instructions, the servant searched the entire Xianya Palace, but did not find the maid named Liu Mei, and the servant also checked the records of leaving the palace. , did not show Liu Mei's name."

"Afterwards, the servant went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and checked Liu Mei's files. He learned that Liu Mei was transferred to the Xianya Palace at the beginning of this month, and the time of her appearance basically coincided with what the empress said."

"Strange, according to what you said, there is indeed such a person named Liu Mei in Xianya Palace, but you can't find it?"

The Queen Mother frowned, and looked at Fu Qingxi dissatisfied.

Jin Yantang asked indifferently: "Have you checked anything suspicious?"

Fu Qingxi thought for a while, then replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have searched Xianya Palace and found that there is only one firewood room in the backyard that cannot be opened, because it was locked."

Isn't the woodshed the place where the dead bodies of the Tartars are hidden?
Shang Kelan's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously looked at the queen.

At this time, the queen lowered her eyebrows and bowed her head, saluting and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to search the firewood room? It may not be certain that you can find any clues from the firewood room, or let the concubines go directly to the firewood room It is also possible to investigate."

It turned out that the Tatars and the queen were in collusion!

In other words, the cream this morning was nothing more than a prop to deceive others, and it was the dead body of the Tatar who really played a role!
In other words, from the very beginning, Shang Kelan should not have focused on the cream.

The situation became serious from this moment on, and Shang Kelan could no longer wait and see what happened.

As the queen said, every step of hers was carefully planned, that's why she was so calm and composed, and she was so sure that her move was definitely not a dangerous move!
As soon as the queen's words fell, all the concubines echoed one after another, asking to go to the scene to have a look in person.

Jin Yantang frowned, raised his hand and said, "Okay, Fu Qingxi, order someone to open the woodshed."

Fu Qingxi nodded in response, Shang Kelan wanted to understand everything, and her heart was extraordinarily calm, just when everyone was about to leave, she suddenly said: "No need, the key is here in this palace."

As she spoke, she looked at Wen Chun, who hesitated for a moment, and handed her the key to the firewood room.

Shang Kelan handed the key to Fu Qingxi and said, "Director Fu, please go."

Everyone was puzzled, why Shang Kelan took out the key at this time, shouldn't ordinary people be more deceptive?

When the harem concubine was curious, even Jin Yantang gave her a puzzled look at the main seat.

But the queen urged me indifferently: "Your Majesty, can you go?"

After Jin Yantang was silent for a while, he waved to everyone, and Fu Qingxi led them to the woodshed.

Shang Kelan followed the queen and walked towards the woodshed.

The courtyard was planted with flowers, plants and trees, and there were rockery and flowing water, so it was not very hot and dry, but even so, a drop of sweat could not help but fall from Shang Kelan's forehead.

While walking, suddenly, the queen gave Shang Kelan a meaningful look, smiled slightly, and said, "Have you ever felt afraid in Concubine Chen's heart?"

Shang Kelan stared blankly, and subconsciously glanced at her, but the queen's eyes were so deep that she seemed to be sucking her in.

She withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyelids slightly, and said: "Because of fear, I never like the feeling of losing, even if the opponent is the empress."

At this time, in the small kitchen of an abandoned palace.

Zhiqiu, Xiaoxia, and Wandong gathered in the courtyard. Taoxiang was tied up on a chair by them, and a cloth was stuffed in her mouth. Therefore, even if she wanted to scream, Taoxiang couldn't scream, she could only utter a low voice. whimpering.

Xiao Xia chuckled, held a bowl of soup and looked at her maliciously, and said, "Tell me honestly, what kind of conspiracy and tricks are you planning to use against Concubine Chen? If you don't say anything, I won't be polite with this bowl of poison." !"

Wandong and Zhiqiu stood on her left and right with indifferent expressions, which could form a deterrent effect in terms of numbers.

Tao Xiang swallowed her saliva, a look of fear flashed in her eyes, and then she glared at them angrily, seeming to be whimpering again.

Xiaoxia glanced at her suspiciously, then tore off the cloth from her mouth, and said generously, "Now you can talk, right?"

"Pooh!"

Tao Xiang spat out a mouthful of saliva, looked at them indignantly and said: "The slaves are absolutely loyal to the empress, even if you torture me abusively and force me to die, I will not betray the empress!"

Xiaoxia was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously said: "So you are still a tough one."

Zhiqiu frowned, took the medicine in her hand and poured it directly into Taoxiang.

On the side, Wan Dong sneered and said: "If you don't say it, it's useless to keep you!"
