Imperial concubine always has good luck

"Buried alive?"

Li Rusu looked around, and sure enough, he found a big pit beside him. He looked down at his clothes, and then suddenly came back to his mind. The memory before he fainted came to his mind.

Later, chef Li was beaten on the ground by Lu Pei and couldn't get up. She used to have a few mouths and said angrily, "it was you who attacked me behind my back. How did I offend you?"

Chef Li's face was already swollen, but in the face of Li Rusu's question, he kept silent, only stood up and said, "Lady Li, don't be too arrogant. I'm in your hands today. Let you handle it. Don't talk nonsense!"

Murdering a female official in the palace is the crime of beheading. If Li Rushu wants him to die, he only needs to ask Duke Liu and Lu Li to go to the emperor and tell him. However, in the face of his heroic death, it seems that there is something hidden behind him. Li Rushu hesitated.

Lu Li also hesitated. He calmed down and asked, "I remember you. You are one of the chefs in the dining room. Have you been in the palace for several years? I've always been low-key. How can I bury a person alive now? "

Just now he strangled him with the truth, but thinking that someone dared to murder Li Rujing's life and worried that there were others behind him, he didn't dare to start, or even report to his father. If his father ordered him to be executed, wouldn't the person hiding in the dark to harm people be found out?

"Why do you want to kill lady Li?" Grandpa Liu was also worried. He remembered that chef Li's meal was very delicious. After the Palace Banquet, their fathers in law could share some of the dishes left on the table, so they had a good impression on the skilled imperial chef. They didn't explain anything when they saw him. Their angry nose was almost crooked.

"Grandpa Liu, don't ask. Lock him up first and don't say anything to others." Lu Li's eyes were cold. After giving orders, he led Li Rushu out of the palace.

She didn't dare to let her go back to Li's house, but took her to the king's house. Lu Li asked someone to change her clothes and ordered her to cook ginseng soup. Only then did she come in to see her. When she saw her drinking soup one mouthful at a time, her eyes were hot.

If Grandpa Liu didn't see it, she wouldn't be in front of him at the moment. If he went late, she would die. Lu Li felt terrible pain in his heart as long as he thought about it.

"Don't go into the palace these days. I'll ask for leave with the queen."

Li Rushu drank the ginseng soup and felt that his strength had recovered. Then he felt relieved and said, "why don't you enter the palace? It's just a shock. "

Ignoring Lu Li's cold face, she recalled how she had been knocked out. Her mind was still in a mess. She frowned and said, "do you think I offended him unintentionally? After all, I've been very strict in checking accounts these days, but I haven't found many mistakes in the imperial chef. "

"Don't worry about it. I'll deal with it and help you find out the cause." Lu Li's eyes were determined, which made people feel inexplicably safe. Li Rushu couldn't help nodding when he saw it, and there was a burst of warmth in his heart.

In the evening two days later, Lu Li came to the place where chef Li was detained in the palace. Grandpa Liu found an empty room in the stable. Usually, no one went. Only he sent some food three times a day these two days, so the palace didn't know he was locked here.

Chef Li, with his hands tied, sat down in his chair like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. When he saw Lu Li coming in, he smiled miserably and said, "Your Highness, don't ask, just kill me."

"So anxious to die?"

Lu Li Leng snorted, stopped opposite him, looked down, and suddenly asked, "it seems that you are willing to do these for Mei Fei."

A word exploded in the room like a thunder. Chef Li looked up with fear in his eyes. His voice changed and said, "how do you know?"

"Isn't it easy to know this?" Lu Li was calm and said, "I must hate female official Li very much because Princess Mei was banned recently. I asked someone to investigate the people who contacted Princess Mei these days, and I found you."

Chef Li's face trembled, his eyes turned for a long time, and asked tentatively, "Your Highness, this matter will not involve Princess Mei. Although I met her, she wanted to eat my jujube cake. We didn't say anything else."

"Who believes?" Lu Liqi smiled and said, "you are smart, but you are mistaken by smart. If you are not so eager to pick up Mei Fei, the king can only guess that she bought you with money, but now... There are other secrets between you."

"Yes, yes, she bought me with money." Chef Li seemed to see a ray of dawn and said, "she promised me one hundred liang of silver to kill lady Li for her. It's that simple."

Looking at his more and more evasive eyes, Lu Li flashed a trace of impatience in his eyes and turned around and said, "well, the king will ask Mei Fei. She is a person who has forbidden her feet. No one will know even if she uses torture tools."

He was about to leave. Chef Li behind him suddenly struggled from his chair. His hands were tied. He got up in a hurry, so he leaned to the ground and shouted, "Your Highness, don't! I said! "

Lu Li stopped, turned back slowly, didn't help him, but squatted beside him, smiled indifferently, "speak slowly, don't worry."

Chef Li's eyes looked at Mei Fei's palace in the distance. His eyes were a little erratic and said faintly, "Mei ER and I... Were childhood sweethearts..."

In the remote room of the stable, a man was tied with tears in his eyes. He was telling the story of love many years ago. At first, his expression was sweet, then slowly became painful, and finally he was helpless to move. Lu Li listened quietly without a trace of expression.

Half an hour later, chef Li was as pale as earth. His posture on the low mountain was very uncomfortable. He had to open his mouth to tell the truth. It was not easy to explain his relationship with Princess Mei when he was young. He took a deep breath and begged: "Your Highness, mei'er is an official woman. Naturally, I am not worthy of a poor boy, But she has promised me to fly away, but at that time, she was on the list of beautiful women in the palace. She entered the palace for her family... I... I entered the palace to be a cook just to protect her. Take this life and don't embarrass mei'er? "

Lu Li was noncommittal. He got up and said, "for your sake, I can make you go faster." Then he took a long step out and handed Han Changfeng a look at the door.

Han Changfeng nodded. After entering for a while, a slight dull hum came out, and then there was silence

An hour later, chef Li's head hung on a tree in the Meifei palace.
