"Empress...Empress..."
Doctor Hu closed the door of the side hall and pushed Concubine De on the bed, who looked like a dead person. Seeing that she didn't respond, he mysteriously took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and put it under Concubine De's nose and shook it.
A pair of red bloodshot eyes suddenly opened. Concubine De immediately reached out to cover her stabbed lower abdomen, gritted her teeth, took the powder from Doctor Hu's hand, and swallowed it in one gulp.
"Your Majesty's move was too risky, and she almost cost her own life. If... if something goes wrong, what should we do?"
The wound was so painful that Concubine De closed her eyes, but she did not make a sound of pain. After taking a special hemostatic medicine, the wound stopped bleeding, but the pain doubled.
For such a tolerant concubine, Dr. Hu had to admire her for being a ruthless person.
"Jiang Xinyue...is she gone?"
The feeling of nausea was also accompanied by her. She endured the pain and spasms, and asked: "Is the mute slave dead?"
Dr. Hu bowed and replied: "The emperor took the imperial concubine away, and said that he wanted the imperial concubine to stay in Chengqian Palace for a few days. The poison of the mute slave was mixed by the empress yourself, so there was nothing wrong. They didn't ask What's going on?"
That's good!
Concubine De sat up, but the wound was so painful that she lowered her neck.
Doctor Hu sighed: "Your Majesty, I can't do this again in the future, it's too dangerous."
"Otherwise, how can the emperor trust me?"
She stood up with the help of Dr. Hu: "That bitch Lu Yin, she knows so many things about me. I just tried it out casually, and she overturned all my old ways. But she also helped me." I am so busy that I have the opportunity to wipe out the past and find her and the mute slave as scapegoats."
Dr. Hu admired Concubine De's methods even more: "The empress is so clever and clever. How old is the imperial concubine now? She has only been in the palace for a short time. How can she be her opponent?"
"You are wrong to think so."
Concubine De took a deep breath to relieve the pain and said slowly: "I mutilated myself in order to kill Lu Yin and blame the mute slave. The reason why I hinted to Xiao Ronghua so early was because I was not able to escape after the Dongchuang incident. The palace is here to release Jiang Xinyue. If the emperor finds out, I can win sympathy with the third prince, but if Jiang Xinyue finds out, I will be completely defeated."
If she was afraid that the emperor would find out, she wouldn't have done so many evil things in the first place.
What she was afraid of was Jiang Xinyue.
Just like at the beginning, the Queen, Concubine Li, Concubine Shu and Concubine Liang all looked down on Jiang Xinyue and thought she was just a new plaything for the emperor's greed.
But she is different.
After she fell in love with Jiang Xinyue again, the first time she saw Jiang Xinyue, she decided that she was different from the idiot she used to be.
That's why she plotted Jiang Xinyue's life again and again, and instigated a few idiots to attack her, but unfortunately they failed.
Others only thought that Jiang Xinyue was lucky, but Concubine De never attributed her escape from death to luck.
It was luck once or twice, three times, four times or even five or six times, but it couldn't harm her, so it couldn't be explained by luck alone.
Jiang Xinyue's intelligence and strategy were not inferior to hers, so every step she took, the first person she guarded against was her old enemy, the imperial concubine who was looked down upon by Dr. Hu.
It was quiet in Yanqing Palace. The emperor sent people to surround the palace. The remaining maids and eunuchs did not dare to leave the room. The maids and eunuchs who knew about it were all gone, and the remaining ones did not dare to breathe.
"emperor!"
Tang Shiliang covered his mouth and rushed out of the lotus garden. As he ran, he turned his back to the emperor and vomited until he was black.
Wang Dequan stood with the emperor outside the lotus garden, already expecting that something unusual must be found inside.
"Fifteen corpses, including men and women, concubines and palace maids and eunuchs. The piranha in the lotus pond has not been fed all year round. It only eats dead human flesh. It has mutated long ago. It weighs fifty kilograms. The hanging mirror Si's people have been transported to the dungeon, ready to be used as an interrogation method."
"In the mute slave's room, corpse powder was found, and there were also women's embroidered shoes. The maids said they were from Lu Yin. This damn old pervert has collected a lot of Lu Yin's shoes, socks and clothes. This time he killed Lu Yin. , in addition to killing someone because of Lu Yin breaking into him, there may also be anger inside because he is unable to love."
"It's so scary. The lotus flowers in the lotus pond are always beautiful all year round. It's because the pond is full of medicinal powder. The lotus flowers have long been petrified and absorbed human blood to maintain their color. The slaves plucked all the lotus flowers and found out that the lotus flowers were still beautiful. The water in the pool is full of bright red human blood.”
Without the potion to clean the pool water and cover up the smell of the rotting corpse, the fishy stench made Tang Shiliang vomit.
Jiang Xinyue did not believe that these more than ten lives were committed by the mute slaves. She had not been idle these days. She asked Xiao Xiangzi, a man who came out of the cold palace, to go back to the cold palace to investigate the origins of the mute slaves, and then let Jiang Chuan leave the palace. Jiang family, let them check the greenery.
Especially check out the interpersonal relationships in Luyin’s family.
Lu Yin is Concubine De's personal maid. She grew up in Chengguo Palace since she was a child. Her family must have grown up there, so it's easy to check.
Intuition told Jiang Xinyue that the mute slave did not collect green things because he was a pervert. The matter was not that simple.
if……
If Concubine De pretends to go to the rockery to visit, Lu Yin, as her personal maid, will undoubtedly go with her.
Jiang Xinyue is now standing on the rockery, taking off an earpiece from her ear, and then said to Shuangsheng: "My earpiece fell, please help me look for it."
Shuangsheng's first reaction was to walk to the edge of the rockery. He could use the high ground to overlook the bottom, so that he could find his master's earrings quickly.
Suddenly, a huge force came from behind her, Shuang Sheng screamed shrilly, and her fear reached its peak.
The two guards quickly grabbed her arms and pulled her back from the edge. Shuang Jiang fell to the ground in shock, with a look of fear on her face that had not yet faded.
Immediately afterwards, Concubine Wen ran out of Hexi Palace and said, "My Lady, I can hear my concubine shouting at the door, but further inside, the maid in the house cannot hear her."
"So... Lu Yin was not killed by the rockery. After being killed by De Fei, he hid in the cave of the rockery and then deceived the mute slave. The mute slave saw Lu Yin's body and lost his mind in grief. I want to kill Concubine De."
The maid next to De Concubine also said that the mute slave rushed to De Concubine and took out the dagger from his sleeve. But who can guarantee that when the mute slave pushed De Concubine, it was the mute slave who took out the dagger. Or was it Concubine De who took advantage of the situation and stabbed herself before putting the dagger into the hands of the mute slave?
No one saw it, right?
They only saw the mute slaves rushing over, and Concubine De was injured and escaped into Hexi Palace under their protection.
But that day, because they wanted to inform the emperor that Xiao Ronghua was hiding in Hexi Palace, they all stood in front of the palace not far from the door.
If Lu Yin is pushed down by the mute slave without any defense, she will scream in terror like frost.
But the truth is, none of them heard it.
