Chapter 679 Showdown (3)

Linglong sighed softly, and said: "Concubine Rou, I have to admit that you are very smart, and you can hardly find any flaws in your actions, but as people often say, a wise man will make mistakes if he thinks about it. You still ignore it."

Concubine Rou was startled: "What?"

Linglong said: "When I found out that you and Concubine Yan might be sisters, I quietly set up a situation. Yesterday was the anniversary of Concubine Yan's death. As her younger sister, it is impossible for you not to burn paper for her, but it is strictly forbidden in the harem." If you want to burn paper money, you can only burn it in a secluded place like the Lenggong, so I had someone sprinkle the pre-prepared Thousand Miles Tracking Incense around the Lenggong."

Seeing Concubine Rou's face gradually turning pale, she smiled and said: "It's bad luck in the cold palace. Usually it's the maids and eunuchs who burn paper money there, and concubines basically don't go there. If you're not Concubine Yan's own sister, how can you be followed for thousands of miles?" What about the smell?"

Concubine Rou stared at Linglong dumbfounded, and argued: "What kind of fragrance is there after thousands of miles, how can there be any fragrance on the body of the concubine?"

Linglong said: "You don't have to argue anymore, I don't dare to underestimate a woman who is as cunning as a fox and scheming, this scent of chasing a thousand miles is made by the top perfumer I have found, and it is specially used to deal with you Yes, if you refuse to admit it, you can ask yourself if you don’t have the smell of this spice.”

Concubine Rou's calm and breezy face gradually cracked. She raised her sleeves and sniffed it carefully. She faintly felt a fragrance, but she wasn't sure. She leaned closer to the flesh on the back of her hand and smelled it again.

Linglong smiled and said: "This incense is called Thousand Miles Tracking Incense. As the name suggests, it can trace the enemy's traces for thousands of miles. It is a bit exaggerated to say that it can track thousands of miles, but it is more than enough to cover the square world of the harem. And this The smell of spices is faint, faintly present, not easy to detect, once it is contaminated, it will not fade for a month, even if you really find it, you can't wash it off even if you wash off the skin yourself."

Concubine Rou stayed there, unable to speak a single word.

Linglong glanced at her coldly: "Actually, you can be regarded as alert enough, and you also know how to pretend to be an old woman to leave Jingren Palace, avoid my eyes and ears, and go to the Leng Palace to sacrifice, but you still haven't figured it out after all your calculations. Still hiding this trick."

Concubine Rou's face turned red and green, and she said sadly: "You are so scheming, it's really scary, you really deserve to be trained by the Queen Mother, yes, I am Lin Qingxue, Concubine Yan's younger sister."

Linglong said: "As expected, I guessed correctly, Concubine Rou, Concubine Rou, you are hiding deep enough."

Concubine Rou smiled wryly: "No matter how deep I hid, I was dug out by you in the end, but I don't understand, how did you find me?"

Linglong said: "I can think of you all because of the pouch made of remnants of Xuehe gauze."

Concubine Rou couldn't help being taken aback: "How do you know I have this purse?"

It has been more than ten years since the emperor gave her this purse. How could the empress remember such a trivial matter so clearly?

Linglong smiled: "Of course An Suqiu told me."

Concubine Rou was even more surprised: "An Suqiu? How is this possible? You and An Suqiu are in conflict, how could she tell you that I have this purse."

Linglong said: "Of course it is impossible for living people, but it is possible for dead people."
