The Evil King's Crazy Wife: The World of Ghost Concubine

Chapter 735 Why is the brain different

The deceased was a person who served outside the Concubine Rui's bedroom in Yanhua Palace on weekdays, but most of them were guarding outside the door. It was only after Yun Lanyue mentioned it in the past few days that he was always serving in the hall. died.

The death of this person was too strange, and the timing was so coincidental that it was impossible not to doubt it.

When Hongxia received the news, Concubine Rui hadn't woken up yet, so she hurried to the scene to find out the situation. This question was indeed full of doubts.

The maid's name is Luying, and she has been serving here since Concubine Rui moved into Yanhua Palace. She is a very dutiful little girl, and never thought she was suspicious, but it happened to her.

I heard from people in the same room with her that Luying is usually very lively, but these few days she has become depressed and talks less. When she asks her what's the matter, she doesn't tell anyone. In short, she has changed. In this way, Hongxia carefully asked when did it start, and the date coincided with the time when Ruifei's foot restraint order was lifted.

Hongxia was in a hurry, and wanted to go to the East Palace to ask the concubine what she meant, and then remembered that Yun Lanyue had told Concubine Rui long ago that she couldn't get involved too much in this matter, so she gritted her teeth and could only rely on herself.

Concubine Rui had just woken up when she heard the news of the death of the palace maid Luying, she immediately sat up and asked anxiously, "Where's Hongxia?"

Before she finished speaking, Hongxia ran in from outside in small steps: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?" While speaking, she gave Concubine Rui a wink.

Concubine Rui understood, she hid her emotions, and asked in a deep voice, "Is Luying dead?"

"Yes ma'am."

"How did you die?"

"It was strangled."

"Strangled to death?" Concubine Rui frowned, "So someone killed her?"

"It should be so."

"Why should it be?"

"Your Majesty, this matter is full of doubts and needs to be investigated carefully. I don't dare to speculate about the truth, so please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Hongxia is very smart, she purposely did not determine any possibility, in this way, it gave them more chances to get rid of the crime, and she also knew that this must be Concubine Qiu's conspiracy, since Luying is dead, Concubine Qiu must have another trick, she can't take it lightly.

Concubine Rui frowned: "Luying has served in Yanhua Palace for a long time, and she has never made any mistakes. Although she is not someone close to this palace, she can't die for no reason. Hongxia, this matter must be investigated by this palace. Clear."

"No." Hongxia said respectfully: "Madam, this servant has already checked the matter. I don't know if I can find any clues, but I thought to myself, I can't let go of any possibility, it's better to check."

Concubine Rui nodded in agreement: "You are very thoughtful, and you will be in charge of this matter. Check out the suspicious points in it carefully, so that the murderer cannot go unpunished."

Hongxia bowed in response: "I understand."

Concubine Rui intentionally instructed everyone: "Until Luying's matter is clarified, everyone in Yanhua Palace is not allowed to enter or leave without permission. Everything, no matter how big or small, must be reported to Hongxia, and fully cooperate with her in investigating this matter. ?"

"Yes, ma'am."

Hongxia nodded towards Concubine Rui, as if she was praising her actions, and then said: "Your Majesty, do you need to inform the Imperial Concubine about this matter? Now that the Empress is not in the palace, all matters in the palace naturally fall to the Imperial Concubine. It should have been known.”

Concubine Rui nodded: "You are right, you should inform the imperial concubine, and I will leave this matter to you. Oh, and, if it is something that happened in the harem, you should also tell the empress, and you should send someone to write a letter." Feng, send it to the Queen's Empress urgently, and say that the matter will be investigated by the Imperial Concubine and the Palace together, so that the Empress can rest assured."

Hongxia smiled and said: "Your Majesty is more thoughtful, how can you hide the matters in the palace from the Empress Empress, I should inform the Empress Empress earlier, so that the Empress Empress will not have to worry about trivial matters in the palace when she is away from home."

"Well, let's go."

"Your servant obeys." Hongxia bowed and retreated, and the rest of the people could hear clearly that Concubine Rui was so upright that she didn't seem to be related to this matter.

After all, Luying died in Yanhua Palace, and she was a waiter outside the dormitory of Concubine Rui. It is very likely that she was executed secretly after hearing something that should not be heard. Then Concubine Rui is the biggest suspect. Serving her Those people were still afraid just now, worried that they would find themselves murdered because they knew something they shouldn't know, but now it seems that Empress Rui seems to want to know the truth of this matter more than anyone else, so the suspicion is naturally Reduced.

They have also served in the palace for many years, and they have never seen and heard a lot of insidious tricks in the harem. Maybe some empress felt uncomfortable seeing Concubine Rui being favored, so they killed Luying to frame the empress.

Someone died in Yanhua Palace, Concubine Rui was naturally the biggest suspect, no matter what she said, she couldn't get rid of it, this was the seriousness of the matter.

When Yun Lanyue received the news, the corner of her mouth curled up slightly, and she snorted softly.

Qiao Cui shook her head, tut tut twice and said: "Mother, you said two days ago that the imperial concubine would definitely make a move soon, and that something happened in Yanhua Palace, this Concubine Qiu is too cruel, a good girl, say no It's gone."

"The harem is like this. Either you die or I die. Now it depends on Concubine Rui's fortune. Whether she can escape this catastrophe is another matter."

Qiao Cui nodded: "Madam, should we help Concubine Rui?"

"The chess game has already begun, and Concubine Rui's chess piece has already fallen. How to proceed next depends on how Concubine Qiu will respond. Let's wait and see, otherwise the game will be ruined."

"Crippled? Madam, why can't the servant understand what you are saying?"

Ke Shui explained from the side: "What the empress means is that if we help each other, then Ruifei's pawn will be of no use, but the empress will do it herself. Even if we win this game, it will be the same in the eyes of others." It's disgraceful to win, so it goes without saying who the other people are referring to."

"You mean the emperor?"

Ji Shui hummed: "Concubine Qiu and Concubine Rui are facing each other for the sake of the emperor. If Concubine Rui is just a little beauty, the empress doesn't need to move this chess piece, just throw it to the opponent's camp to die, but Concubine Rui is a concubine, and With two little princes escorting her, it is not so easy for Concubine Qiu to punish her for a capital crime. As long as Concubine Qiu can keep herself in this game of chess, Concubine Qiu will lose her troops after all, and it will not be so difficult for the empress to win at that time gone."

Qiao Cui hissed, shook her head and said, "Our heads are about the same size, why are you so much smarter than me, Weishui? Is it because you eat differently? Weishui, did you secretly eat something behind my back? Brain supplements?"

"I swear absolutely not." Ji Shui made an oath and said solemnly.
