"Sisi, I miss you so much!"
As soon as Li Sixu entered Linglong Residence, she was hugged by the fish beauty who came over.
It wasn't enough for the fish mermaid to squat down and hug her. He even rubbed his chin on her small shoulder. He smelled the rancid smell of sweat on her body, and then he frowned and let her go.
"Sisi, it smells a bit stinky!"
Li Sixu laughed angrily at her disgusted expression: "Sisi was stained with dirty things when she first entered Jiuxuan Palace. Can you wash it off before coming back to accompany your mother?"
"good!"
The fish mermaid swallowed, then puffed up her chest and said loudly: "I left the watermelon for you, but I didn't eat it secretly."
Was it the watermelon given to her by her senior brother Wang Ziqing?
Li Sixu couldn't help laughing when she saw her proud face begging for praise: "Mother is great!"
The fish beauty was very happy to receive the compliment and no longer thought about eating watermelon. She wanted to follow Qing He into the bathroom to give Li Sixu a bath.
Li Sixu, who had black lines all over her head, told her to come back with delicious roast chicken and pork knuckles.
After coaxing the fish beauty away, Li Sixu asked Qing He, who was rubbing her back with water: "I went to Xingqing Palace today with Master to deliver summer tea. I haven't returned to Jiuxuan Palace for a day. What's going on at Linhua Palace?"
"There wasn't much movement. Not long after the young master left Linglong Residence, Eunuch Yang's people went to Linhua Palace and left after probably delaying a stick of incense."
Qing He thought for a while: "There was such a big commotion in Linhua Palace last night. It should be the emperor who sent someone to thoroughly investigate Linhua Palace and ask Concubine Wu for questioning..."
What?
Eunuch Yang?
Before Qing He finished speaking, Li Sixu interrupted her: "Which Eunuch Yang are you talking about?"
"There is also Eunuch Yang, the one who is in charge of the internal affairs department next to the emperor. In the past, when the empress was favored, he and the emperor came to Linglong Residence to serve him..."
Li Sixu's heart skipped a beat and sank to the bottom.
People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to Jiuxuan Palace, but they did not take away Wu Bin. It can be seen that the strange thing about Wu Eunuch did not involve Wu Bin at all.
Eunuch Wu is the most powerful person around Wu Bin, but Wu Bin is not involved?
There is a possibility that Eunuch Wu may have been made a scapegoat.
No!
It could be even worse.
Xu Cairen's eyes were clear, but when she shouted for help, a fierce ghost hit her and threatened her life. Thinking of the fate of Eunuch Zhang next to Xu Cairen, this had to make Li Sixu vigilant.
The recent weirdness in Jiuxuan Palace is all related to her. She did not do it perfectly and left no trace behind.
If Eunuch Wu took advantage of his death to bite her back, then Doctor Sun would treat Eunuch Yang as a meeting gift to her and ask her to deliver medicine to Eunuch Yang. Wouldn't it be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?
Will not!
Old Man Sun would never harm her.
He was as cunning as a man, so there must be some hidden meaning in letting her get close to Eunuch Yang.
Li Sixu couldn't figure out the twists and turns for a while. Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Qing He asked curiously: "My young master just said that he and Dr. Sun went to Xingqing Palace to deliver summer tea today. Have you seen the emperor?" ?”
"No!"
Li Sixu thought thoughtfully: "Fortunately it will be soon..."
Qing He asked about Li Sixu's Xingqing Palace. At this moment, it was still the courtyard where Li Sixu treated Eunuch Yang's leg. He faced the young guard standing in front of him with a rare soft expression on his face.
"After you went to the Third Prince's place, is everything okay?"
Li Linhuai cupped his hands calmly: "If you go back to father-in-law, everything will be fine."
Eunuch Yang felt that the person who was answering him looked too much like himself when he was young.
It is a pity that he is already disabled at a young age, but the person in front of him comes from a famous family, and is the legitimate son of General Zuo Yulin Li Kailuo. With his calm nature, if he works hard, his future will be limitless.
"You are working as an errand for the Third Prince. We heard that the little princess of Jiuxuan Palace is very close to Princess Yue and often goes to and from the palace of the noble concubine. Is this possible?"
Li Linhuai, who stood beside Eunuch Yang with a respectful expression, finally had an expression on his face.
He asked warily: "Why did the father-in-law suddenly ask about the little princess?"
"It's nothing. The emperor was frightened in Linhua Palace last night. We asked our family to investigate the matter thoroughly. The man named Wu next to Wu Bin bit his tongue and committed suicide as soon as he entered the Shenxing Department. Before he died, he showed fear and called out "little princess."
Li Linhuai raised his ears and listened, and Eunuch Yang continued: "Our family will follow this clue and send people to ask Wu Bin and the crazy Xu Cairen. The weird things that happened in Jiuxuan Palace recently are all related to Linglong The little princess who lives here has nothing to do with it."
It really has something to do with the little princess!
But Wu Eunuch, who was beside Wu Pin, practiced witchcraft on the fish beauty, and the little princess just treated her body in his own way.
It was obvious that the little princess already had a chance to win.
The hateful eunuch named Wu wanted to bite the little princess before his death in order to protect his master behind the scenes.
Li Linhuai, who knew very well what happened in Linhua Palace last night, said with a calm face: "Does the father-in-law suspect that the little princess has been poisoned?"
"No, it's not poisoning. After the eunuch named Wu bit his tongue and committed suicide, the autopsy found no signs of poisoning on his body."
Eunuch Yang's eyes were solemn: "The strange behavior he had in Linhua Palace last night reminded our family of the witchcraft that was prevalent in the harem during the Xianqing period..."
There is indeed something strange about the little princess, but everything she is doing now is to protect the Fish Lady, and she has no intention of actively harming others.
Besides, the little princess only poisoned Eunuch Wu and did not practice witchcraft.
If you are framed, can't you fight back?
He still doesn't know the whole story, and even if it's for Princess Yue and the noble concubine, he can't put the little princess in danger.
"My father once taught Linhuai that the clearer the clues in a case, the more hidden secrets there will be behind it."
Li Linhuai couldn't help but analyze: "Since the clues before the death of the eunuch named Wu pointed directly at the little princess, and Wu Bin and the crazy Xu Cairen also insisted that there was something strange about the six-year-old little princess, it was obvious that someone deliberately wanted to lead the clues to Linglongju. Lead it to the little princess."
A pair of clear and translucent eyes flashed before Eunuch Yang's eyes. The owner of those eyes was sweating on his forehead, and his eyes sincerely told him that every injury on Eunuch-in-law's body was for the sake of the peace of the people of the Tang Dynasty. Eunuch-in-law is a great hero, no matter what. It should be feared, it should be admired.
If that little girl is really involved in witchcraft, does Sun Yizheng, that spirit-like old man, think he has a long life?
How could he be so bold as to push someone towards him?
Even if he doesn't care about his disciple's life, isn't he afraid that he will be implicated?
This is not the way to give a person's head as a gift.
"Yes, it does seem like someone deliberately led the clues to the little girl. Since some people think she is blocking the way, they can always find some clues by following her clues."
Eunuch Yang told Li Linhuai: "Our family called you here just because of that quirky little girl in Linglongju. She is getting close to Princess Yue in the concubine's palace. Since you have been sent by the emperor to the third prince As an errand, I will use the balcony near the water to secretly keep an eye on the little girl for our family."
