Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 191 Investigation
I don't know who laughed out unintentionally, making Jingpin's face even more ugly.

Glaring at Shen Xi secretly, he dared not say anything more due to the queen's presence.

He could only explain in a humble way, "Concubine doesn't mean that, Sister Li Concubine, please don't misunderstand."

Shen Xi didn't even bother to utter a word in response, his eyes stayed on the corpse with incomplete limbs and some were soaked in water, and moved away as if nothing had happened.

A faint feeling of wanting to vomit rose in her heart, her hands under the sleeves were clenched tightly, and her face was calm and composed.

"So lively?"

A deep and familiar voice broke through the constant discussion in the room, and all of a sudden became quiet. The women in court respectfully knelt down at the same time, and the concubines put their hands on their waists and made a gesture of salute.

When Concubine Shu saw Rong Jinli, she inadvertently shook her legs and twitched.

Rong Jinli saw that beautiful and charming person standing there quietly at a glance. Although his face was calm, if he looked closely, he could still see the paleness.

He raised his eyebrows, he was obviously surprised to see Shen Xi present for another day.

The queen raised her eyes to look at Rong Jinli who had been silent all this time, and followed his gaze to Shen Xi's direction. There was some emotion on her face, and her unhappiness flashed across.

She made a slight sound and whispered, "Your Majesty."

Rong Jinli withdrew his eyes calmly, gave Ji Yunyun an indifferent look, and looked at the person involved in the incident.

When seeing that 'thing' on the ground, a glimmer of light flashed across those dark and condensed eyes.

Xiao Qi poked his head behind him, looked over, his peach blossom eyes sized him up twice, then covered his lips with a fan, and let out a sneer.

"Tsk, this attack is ruthless enough. It's good to be alone, and there is not even a whole body."

Rong Jinli took a few steps forward and raised his eyes to look at the lake.

Zhao Rong swept across the palace ladies who were looking at each other, and his sharp voice pierced their eardrums.

"The first to see stay."

"As for you, are you still not backing down and just watching the excitement as if you have nothing to do? Or do you want to take a look at the scenery in the lake?"

The tone was a little harsh.

When the maids heard what he meant, the lake water had obviously become a point of fear at this moment, so they didn't dare to stay, and hurriedly left in a hurry.

When I left, I was warned not to make a sound.

After Zhao Rong finished speaking, he stood in front of all the concubines in the palace, including the queen, and he squeezed out a kind smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, if you feel unwell, you can leave first. The emperor will definitely deal with this matter." The investigation is clear, and please don't panic, ladies."

Many of them were pampered daughters, but their faces were pale and terrified after seeing this scene.

Some even couldn't help covering their lips with handkerchiefs, for fear of making indecent noises.

Hearing what Zhao Rong said, it must represent the meaning of the emperor.

Naturally, they were willing to leave first. Although they wanted to stand by the emperor's side in their hearts, their strength did not allow it.

Even Concubine Shu, who has always been domineering, is among them.

It stands to reason that the death of a mere court lady shouldn't have made such a big fuss, and even led Xiao Qi, who was the Young Minister of You Dali Temple, to intervene.

It's just that what happened was too shocking, and the death was too tragic. This incident still happened in the fortified palace. No matter what, this vicious person must be found out, otherwise people will panic.
