Xiang Yin's voice was urgent and trembling, and she was obviously frightened.
"My slave saw from a distance that the clothes on the female corpse looked very similar to He Xiang's. He Xiang is afraid that something is more serious than that."
Concubine Yu has been in the palace for so many years and knows that this is a place where people can eat people without spitting out their bones. It is not uncommon for people to die in the palace. She did not expect that it would be the turn of someone in her palace.
"Go and have a look." Concubine Yu stood up and walked out quickly.
Hearing this, Xiang Yin followed closely.
When Concubine Yu rushed to the imperial garden, the female body had been fished out of the lotus pond and was lying on the cold ground.
She walked forward slowly, just in time to see the face soaked in the pool water, with one eye empty. She was so frightened that she took several steps back until she hit a wall of flesh. She didn't stop.
She raised her head and instinctively backed away when she saw Xiao Qing's stern face.
Still in shock, she hurriedly saluted, "Your Majesty."
The emperor passed by the imperial garden and saw Concubine Concubine standing there from a distance, dressed in purple-blue palace clothes, which made her look frail.
Thinking of her drinking the Bizi Soup without hesitation, her eyes suddenly turned cold, "What are you doing here?"
Concubine Yu lowered her eyebrows and nodded: "The maid in my concubine's palace disappeared. I learned that there was a female corpse in the lotus pond that looked very similar to He Xiang, so I came over to take a look."
The emperor heard this and looked up behind her, only to see a female corpse lying not far from her, with no limbs and a very miserable death condition.
He looked away and saw that Concubine Concubine's expression was very bad, she was obviously frightened.
"Is that female corpse from your palace?"
Concubine Concubine said: "I haven't decided yet whether it is true or not."
A sneer appeared on the corner of the emperor's lips, "Concubine, please come closer and see if she is from your palace."
Concubine Yu stiffened when she heard this. The woman's body was in such a miserable state of death that the emperor clearly let her see it in time.
"It's the Emperor."
Concubine Concubine bit her lip, turned to look at the female corpse, and walked slowly over. The scene she had just seen appeared in her mind before she took a step, and her legs became weak involuntarily.
When he got closer and saw the pale eyeless eyes again, his body trembled uncontrollably.
Even though her eyes were gouged, she still recognized it as He Xiang.
Not only were his eyes gouged out, his hands were gone, his legs were broken, and they were dragged to the ground with their leather straps and shins.
"Concubine Concubine, did you recognize her?"
A cold voice suddenly came from above her head, and she knew that the emperor was standing behind her without turning around.
"I recognized it. It's He Xiang, the maid in my palace."
Even Concubine Concubine herself noticed that her voice was shaking violently, and her body was out of control.
The emperor naturally noticed her trembling voice and left with satisfaction.
When Concubine Yu returned to Yuxiu Palace, she developed a high fever that night and had nightmares one after another.
The next day, the fever persisted, and Xiang Yin went to see the imperial doctor anxiously.
Concubine Concubine had not been pampered for many years. She invited several imperial doctors but they were unwilling to come.
Either he was called away by Concubine Qi, or he was called away by Concubine Huang.
In the end, only a very young imperial doctor was left. After asking, I found out that he had just arrived.
"It's up to you." Xiang Yin took the imperial doctor and walked towards Yuxiu Palace.
"Wait a minute." Doctor Wen hurriedly followed with the medicine box in hand.
In the Yuxiu Palace, after hearing that the imperial physician had diagnosed the pulse, he quickly prescribed a prescription to reduce fever.
After taking some antipyretic medicine, Xiang Yin breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that the high fever would go down soon.
The busy streets are full of people coming and going.
Xie Chi stood upright behind the booth. From boredom at the beginning to anticipation now, it was actually curiosity.
He used to think that those Taoist priests were suspicious, but now he knew that some things were real.
Fu Yuanxiao held the meat bun in his hand and gnawed it while waiting for the last customer of the day.
Just when she was about to finish chewing the meat bun in her hand, someone came over.
It's two people.
Shen Xingyi smiled and greeted, "Master Yuanzi."
The name of Fu Yuanxiao’s stall is Yuanzi
Fu Yuanxiao had just taken a bite of the meat bun, and his cheeks were bulging. He couldn't say anything and could only nod in greeting.
The moment Mu Chengxuan saw Master Yuanzi, he seriously suspected that Shen Xingyi was playing tricks on him. He pointed at Master Yuanzi and said, "This is him you are talking about? How old is he? You are here to fool me, right?"
Shen Xingyi chuckled, "How could I fool you? Even though he is young, he is still capable."
Fu Yuanxiao finished the last bite of the meat buns and took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth.
Mu Chengxuan saw the pink handkerchief in his hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently. It was so strange for a boy to use a girl's handkerchief.
Shen Xing turned his eyes to Master Yuanzi and said with a warm smile: "He is my friend Mu Chengxuan. He talks without thinking, Master Yuanzi, don't mind."
Fu Yuanxiao glanced at Mu Chengxuan, who seemed to be a little younger than Shen Xiangyi. She said nonchalantly: "I don't care about children."
Mu Chengxuan was a little unhappy when he heard this, "Who are you calling a child?"
Shen Xingyi patted Mu Chengxuan on the shoulder and told him to calm down, "Don't forget that you have something to ask Master Yuanzi for help today."
After hearing this, Mu Chengxuan looked at Master Yuanzi, a little boy with no hair at all, with doubt in his eyes, "Do you really have that ability?"
Fu Yuanxiao has been questioned by many people since the day she set up her stall, all because she looks too young because of her age.
"You tell me first and listen."
Mu Chengxuan has no choice but to try first.
"Five days ago, my father came back from the morning and suddenly hanged himself with a rope. Fortunately, my mother found it in time. However, my father went to jump into the lake again in the middle of the night. If the servants in the house hadn't discovered it, my father would have died. Take it. In the past few days, my father has always tried his best to seek death. Before this, my father had no abnormal behavior."
Fu Yuanxiao probably guessed it when he heard this, "If I guessed correctly, your father must have met his scapegoat."
If Mu Chengxuan hadn't heard Shen Xingyi mention it, he would have thought he was talking nonsense.
"What should we do?"
Fu Yuanxiao wrote a talisman with a pen, handed it to Mu Chengxuan, and asked: "Sew this talisman on your father's clothes."
Mu Chengxuan took the talisman in his hand and glanced at him suspiciously, thinking that whether it was useful or not, just try it and you'd know, Shen Xingyi wouldn't trick him.
Then I paid fifty cents.
Fu Yuanxiao stuffed fifty coins into the bag, turned to look at Qin Chi, and said in a cheerful tone, "Close the stall and go home."
Qin Chi did not hesitate and began to clean up the tables and chairs neatly. He knew that his lady was in a hurry to go home for lunch.
Mu Chengxuan saw him closing the stall and asked in confusion: "It's still early for lunch, and you're closing the stall?"
Shen Xingyi smiled and explained for Master Yuanzi: "He only takes three orders every day. By coincidence, you happen to be the third one."
Under Mu Chengxuan's surprised eyes, Fu Yuanxiao walked towards the palace with cheerful steps.
"If he sets up a stall like this, he won't starve to death?" Mu Chengxuan said to Shen Xing.
Shen Xingyi smiled, "I thought so at first, but I think he should be able to support himself."
