My old husband who can read minds

Qing Guiren's death was too sudden and strange.

A perfectly good person suddenly fell ill and passed away in a horrifying manner in less than a month. It would be unbelievable to say that there was nothing fishy in this.

Originally, given the relationship between the Queen and Qing Guiren, she was the last person who should be suspected of Qing Guiren's death.

Once Kang Jieyu "dies", the only person in the harem who can help the queen is Guiren Qing, who is also a daughter of the Song family. The death of Guiren Qing will mean that the queen becomes completely weak in the palace. This pair of It was an extremely unfavorable situation for her.

Due to both emotion and reason, Empress Song should not commit suicide by cutting off her arms.

Unless Qing Guiren knew a secret that he shouldn't know, or had a fatal handle on the queen, the queen would have murderous intentions and had to cut off her wrists to protect herself.

The reason why Emperor Qianyuan suspected the empress was related to the fact that the empress had gone to Cuiyu Pavilion to have a secret talk with Mr. Qing in the inner palace that day. At that time, he thought it was normal, but now that he thought about it, the emperor felt that the empress had a murderous intention at that time.

This is also the reason why Emperor Qianyuan ordered the commander-in-chief of Chu to take the maids and eunuchs of Cuiyuxuan into custody and torture them severely.

Not only to find out the cause of Qing Guiren's death, but most importantly, to find out what kind of shady secrets the Queen and Qing Guiren were hiding behind.

Unfortunately, this investigation was destined to be fruitless.

When it comes to poisoning the dragon body, Mr. Qing has always done it himself, never relying on others, and never revealed a word to his trusted servants. It can be said that he truly brought the secret into the coffin.

The same was true for her own poisoning and death.

People around him couldn't tell whether Qing Guiren died of illness or if he had something hidden.

Originally, according to Queen Song's plan, Qinggui died of an ulcer that could not be cured.

It's just that she missed one point. Qing Guiren had taken a large amount of "Longevity Immortal Pill" before, and the inside of his body had long been in dilapidated state. The "Muscle Melting Pill" given by Queen Song greatly accelerated the degree of ulceration in Qing Gui's body. The noble man died horribly in the end.

This made the emperor suspicious of Qing Guiren's death.

Facing the emperor's scrutinizing and suspicious eyes, Empress Song suddenly felt her scalp numb, but her face remained calm and composed, and she just looked like she was grieving for losing a close confidant.

In public, the emperor and empress still maintained the dignity that adults should have, and everyone saw through each other without telling each other.

Qing Guiren's funeral affairs were finally left to the Queen.

Cui Yuxuan walked around the imperial prison from top to bottom, but did not find any useful clues.

In fact, Qing Guiren is too low-key on weekdays. Apart from keeping a close relationship with the queen, he has almost no contact with other concubines in the palace.Her life in Cuiyuxuan was also very monotonous. She played the piano, read books, made meals every day, and occasionally went out to the garden to relax. The ordinary ones couldn't be more ordinary.

The palace maids and eunuchs who served her all said that she was a good-tempered and kind-hearted master who never had any grudges with others. He had always been law-abiding since he entered the palace, and he had never had any blood on his hands.

It was surprisingly clean and kind.

Other than that, nothing unusual can be seen.The Forbidden Army conducted a round of torture and interrogation, but found nothing. They had no choice but to quietly hand over Qing Guiren's body to Xiao Yiwei, who would secretly investigate the cause of his death.

Emperor Qianyuan received the secret report and became more suspicious of Qing Guiren's death.

This concubine, who usually seemed quiet and obedient and harmless to humans and animals, was now full of doubts.

And these mysteries must be related to the queen and the Song family behind her.

Emperor Qianyuan never thought at this time that the Queen and the Song family would dare to risk the world and be so bold as to commit regicide.

He just vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he asked the secret guards to increase their surveillance and investigation of the Queen and the Song family.

Qing Guiren's body was secretly exchanged.

Empress Song, who took care of his funeral affairs, naturally noticed something fishy immediately. She also knew that this meant that the emperor was brooding over the death of Qing Guiren, and that she and the Song family were in danger.

In Fengyi Palace, Queen Song felt an unprecedented sense of urgency of approaching death.

There seemed to be a sharp blade hanging high above her head, ready to fall down at any moment and send her to death.

After finishing the funeral of Mr. Qing with great concern, Empress Song finally made her final murderous intention in a state of panic.

The pair of sisters that Xirong Jin presented to Emperor Qianyuan had already secretly taken refuge with Empress Song.

The Empress of Song had been arranging them into a secret chess game, dormant in the harem, waiting for opportunities to move.

These sisters were originally dead soldiers trained by Xirong with a lot of money. The royal court of Xirong had no good intentions when they were sent to Emperor Qianyuan.

However, their beauty trap didn't work at all in front of Emperor Qianyuan. Except for the initial desire for fresh luck, Emperor Qianyuan completely forgot about the Xirong sisters and allowed them to fend for themselves in the harem.

If not, the Xirong sisters would not secretly seek refuge with Queen Song and be willing to be used by her.

And on this day, the Xirong sisters received a secret message from Queen Song's order: The time has come.

The two sisters looked at each other and smiled, with relief that they had died generously.

After waiting for so long, the time has finally come to serve Xirong.

How ridiculous is it that the emperor of Dayong would eventually die at the hands of his first wife!

What a relief! (End of chapter)
