The reborn prince's wife

When Queen Zhou returned to the palace, Lian Wan'er had already returned from Concubine De.

"Your Majesty, we don't have enough evidence to suspect Concubine Xue Gui rashly. What if someone finds out..." Lian Wan'er was still a little worried after all because of her young age.

"Ben Gong and Concubine Xue have known each other for so many years, and Ben Gong is very clear about her temperament. She is not afraid of anyone who fights fiercely with the women in the harem, but she has to think twice when it is about the emperor. This time If it really has something to do with her, she will definitely not be the mastermind." Queen Zhou is a person of great wisdom, she looks at the overall situation and does not stick to a small detail.

After Lian Wan'er entered the palace, her relationship with Empress Zhou was not considered warm, but she knew that Concubine Xue Gui could not tolerate her, so she deliberately moved closer to the Empress when choosing a camp. This time, she was given a chance. Really close to the Empress Empress.

She can only say that she really misunderstood Empress Zhou in the past. She always thought that Empress Zhou was afraid of Concubine Xue. It's never really hurt the queen once, and I'm afraid in the eyes of the queen, it's just a small fight.

"That's why the empress said to keep half and half, the purpose is to make her mess up." Lian Wan'er admired Queen Zhou, this queen with a gentle appearance, still has some abilities.

"It's just a test." Empress Zhou replied lightly, now that they should investigate and ask about this matter, she still understood that it was just a gesture of thorough investigation. After all, Mu Liuyun was poisoned in the palace, so the harem naturally had to put on a nonstop gesture to let Dongfang Ye vent his anger.

She knew a little about how much the emperor held Dongfang Ye in high regard, and she had also heard a little about the methods of this little duke, if he really let him do it, it would be the one that would really make a fuss in the harem.

"How about Concubine De?" Concubine De was not the object of suspicion, but the queen always felt that this matter had something to do with Concubine De, thinking that Concubine De was a member of the Ji family after all, and Liu Yun could be regarded as Concubine De's niece carefully. Well, something happened to Liuyun, he should tell her aunt.

"Very calm." After Lian Wan'er finished speaking, she added, "So calm, it's a bit strange."

"How?" asked the Queen.

"I can't tell. Concubine De didn't seem very surprised by Liu Yun's presence in the palace. She didn't seem to care, but after all, such a big thing happened in the palace. Even if she had nothing to do with Liu Yun, She should also be concerned. But she feels like she is deliberately avoiding it." If it were normal, Lian Wan'er might not feel anything, but now that such a big thing happened, she acted like this, which made her It's on my mind.

Empress Zhou pondered and said: "Concubine De is usually not very rational, so it's normal not to care about these things."

It's just that, having said that, the queen still has some thoughts in her heart, this concubine De...but it's hidden very deeply.

At this time, a guard suddenly walked in from outside the door, bowed his head and knelt on one knee: "I want to report to the empress, the noble concubine has left the palace gate, and she only brought a maid with her. She hurriedly went to the empress dowager's palace. Miss Yang Xin is also in the Empress Dowager's Palace."

"Empress?" The queen frowned. This move really made her frown. If this matter was related to the queen mother, it would be really complicated.

"Keep staring." The queen waved her hand and rubbed her temples with a headache.

Lian Wan'er sat on the side and didn't speak. At this time, she was also full of shock. Concubine Xue Gui went to the Queen Mother. If she said that the Queen Mother didn't know anything, she would not believe it. Adding Yang Xin, she was convective. Yun is very dissatisfied, it is very possible to poison people with her temperament.

Wait a minute... Lian Wan'er suddenly sat up straight.

"What's the matter, what did you think of?" The careful Queen Zhou naturally wouldn't let Lian Wan'er's move go.

"Could it be Yang Xin?" Lian Wan'er knew that her guess was very bold. After all, all the specious evidence they knew did not point to Yang Xin, but there was only one point, Yang Xin had more motives than Xue Guifei.

"Could it be that Concubine Xue Gui poisoned Liu Yun in order to help Yang Xin?" This guess is bold, but it is the most likely.

Concubine Xue was promoted several ranks because of someone. No one in the whole palace did not know that Concubine Xue originally wanted Yang Xin to enter the palace as a concubine. The empress dowager was rejected when she came forward, and the connection of the whole incident seemed to explain something.

"Send someone to secretly investigate the Empress Dowager's palace." Empress Zhou's eyes flashed. At this time, it is no longer a matter of simply investigating Liuyun. It would be even better if she could find out something else. After all, such an opportunity But it's rare.

Everyone knows that the emperor is now the queen's backer and gave her the privilege to thoroughly investigate this matter. This is a precious sword. Even if the secret investigation of the Queen Mother's palace is discovered, she can still use the emperor as a shield. Good things don't happen often.

Lian Wan'er's heart was shaken, it seems that the queen is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, fortunately she didn't underestimate her, otherwise she wouldn't know how she died.

"Let's go, let's go and see what the two maids have to say." Empress Zhou knew in her heart that the focus was still on the two maids they captured.

Those two people were indeed suspicious. One of them had bumped into Lian Wan'er's maid, who was holding snacks for Qianling Palace at that time; the other was a young lady working in the imperial kitchen Maid, this girl was in charge of making dim sum that day. Although Lian Wan'er's maid was watching, if the dim sum master wanted to add something to the dim sum, no one else would find out.

"Yes." Lian Wan'er nodded, looking at Queen Zhou's appearance, she knew that she had already made up her mind. I'm afraid these actions are just deceitful actions, but she is looking forward to the Queen's power more and more.

The two concubines walked to the last room of the side hall, just as a nanny came out of it, she immediately knelt down to salute the queen.

"I want to report to the empress, the girl in the imperial dining room has already explained that someone asked her to add sweet-scented osmanthus powder to the snacks, saying that this lady in the palace likes it. If the concubine loves her, she will be rewarded, so I added osmanthus powder to it, I am afraid that the poison has already been planted in the osmanthus powder." Naturally, the mothers in the palace have their own methods, especially when the superiors allow When using lynching, their methods are endless. How can you be a powerful nun if you don't toss people to death? Now those two girls have only entered the side hall for half a day, and they have been tortured so badly up.

"Continue to investigate, and all relevant people will be arrested." These words were aimed at the big palace maid and the guards in charge of the palace.

"Yes." The two replied calmly, turned and left.

Empress Zhou turned around and looked at the quiet palace gate, and said calmly: "The wind is going to blow."
