Chapter 244: Detecting the Truth

Just after Tuo Jinglie left, Jian Xiao saw Tianjiao coming with the imperial edict. Jian Xiao knelt there and listened quietly to him finishing the edict. The content was no longer important. What was important was Jian Xiao's second time.

Leave this cold palace and return to her Xiaoxiang Tower

"Concubine Jian, please accept the order!" Tianjiao said, "I would like to ask my condolences and my condolences regarding Princess Minlan."

Jian Xiao took the imperial edict, stood up, and looked at the corner of the sky, "Is your Majesty okay?"

Tianjiao's face turned pale and he shook his head, "It's not very good, there is always no improvement."

Jian Xiao looked at Tianjiao, "It's not possible that someone did it deliberately, especially the people around you. You have to be careful. It's said that you know people, know faces, but don't know their hearts. The closer the people are to you, the easier it will be to harm you."

!" Jian Xiaoyi said pointedly.

"What do you mean, empress?" Tianjiao looked at Jian Xiao.

"You are a person who is loyal to your master. You should know what I mean." Jian Xiao pursed her lips, looked at the corner of the sky coldly, and walked quickly, "You are only for the good of your master. I am

I’m complimenting you, by the way.” Jian Xiao turned around and looked at Tianjiao who was not leaving, “I just don’t know if your surname is Zhang? Or is your surname Gong?”

Jian Xiao watched Tianjiao's face turn from red to pale, then turned red again. Suddenly, with a "pop" sound, Tianjiao knelt in front of Jian Xiao and kowtowed repeatedly, "Jian Guifei, Tianjiao's mistake will cause eternal hatred. Listen to me."

They are slanderous, thinking that the empress has second thoughts towards your majesty, that’s why... Now that your majesty has been injured by a gangster and has become like this, Tianjiao regrets it so much! I beg your concubine to have mercy!"

"You have taken care of His Majesty since you were a child. Now His Majesty is in trouble. You can't escape your involvement. What do you think His Majesty will do if I tell His Majesty your and Concubine Gong Xian's tricks?" Jian Xiao walked to Tianjiao and looked down at him.

Tianjiao felt a chill running down his spine and did not dare to look into Jian Xiao's eyes. He just took a chance and asked, "What does your Majesty know?"

Hearing these words, Jian Xiao smiled, "What do I know? Haha, good question, good question! Do you think I am pretending to deceive you, don't you? Then let me tell you two things: First, His Majesty was assassinated.

Concubine Gong Xian cannot escape. If you want to gain a foothold in this palace, you must stand in line! You are originally following the emperor, and this position is perfect. Thousands of people are flattering you to guard your golden job, but you are looking for some heresy.

, so you deserve to be reduced to what you are today, Mr. Tianjiao, I only have one question for you."

Jian Xiao squinted her eyes and smiled slightly: "Have those medicines been useful?"

Tianjiao suddenly started to sweat like rain. Seeing Jian Xiao striding forward, he hurriedly chased Jian Xiao. Regardless of interests and dignity, he pulled Jian Xiao's sleeve and said nervously, "Mother, please be merciful."

!Tianjiao knows his fault, Tianjiao is blind and blind..." He just hugged Jian Xiao's legs to prevent Jian Xiao from leaving.

"Eunuch, if you want to hug the Buddha too late, you should hug your Majesty. How can I, a little noble concubine, come into your eyes?" Jian Xiao kicked the corners of the sky away with her feet.

Tianjiao knelt down and said, "Empress, you are the true Buddha!"

Jian Xiao sneered, "Let me ask you, do you know about Min Lan falling into the water?"

"I don't know about this...Tianjiao!" Tianjiao rolled his eyes, "I was accompanying the emperor in Qianning Palace at the time. When I found out, I said that for the sake of your majesty's safety, I had already made arrangements."

Jian Xiao looked at Tianjiao and twitched her lips, "Tianjiao, if you want a way to survive, I can give it to you, but you have to be obedient."

Tianjiao hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her, "Whatever the empress says, Tianjiao will definitely do it."

"On the day His Majesty was assassinated, you were in the Imperial Study Room?" Jian Xiao asked

"Yes! It's a pity that I don't know kung fu and couldn't protect His Majesty well," Tianjiao said with regret.

Jian Xiao thought for a while, "Don't go back to Xiaoxiang Tower yet, take me to the Imperial Study Room!"

Since Zhang Qin was assassinated, the door to the royal study has been locked, and no one wants to go in. Jian Xiao opens the door with a creak, and the sun shines in, and she sees a room filled with dust.

The bookcase was knocked over to the ground. Candlesticks, memorials, and writing brushes were scattered all over the floor. Scratches could be seen on the bookcase and the floor. There were still stains of blood on the throne, which made it possible to imagine what happened here.

What screen stood there alone, with lines of blood splattering on it?

"It was midnight at that time, and His Majesty was still reviewing the memorial. I had just refueled and stood back at the door." Tianjiao pointed to a window on the left next to the door. "This window was not closed. Your Majesty felt too hot, so the assassin came out."

Flying in here"

Jian Xiao walked to the window and turned around, imagining what Zhang Qin was doing that day. The view was not very good, and it was blocked by a screen, so he couldn't see the person clearly. When an assassin wants to assassinate the emperor, doesn't it mean one fatal blow?

"and after?"

"Then the house became dark and the door was pushed open. His Majesty called for escort in a hurry. Just as I was about to rush out, I was knocked unconscious. When I woke up, His Majesty had already..." Tianjiao fell silent.

Walking to the screen, "Tianjiao, let me ask you, have you ever moved this screen?"

"Everything is as it is. No one has been here since His Majesty was assassinated."

Jian Xiao touched the screen, and the smooth vertical and horizontal veins of the silk were clearly visible. The painting on the screen was of a hundred beasts courting the king. The beasts were lifelike, and the tiger's eyes were bright. Jian Xiao touched the eyes, but found that there was a crack in the eyes.

Finger passed through, two fingers wide. Jian Xiao looked along the crack, and it happened to be facing the candlestick. It seemed that the assassin was not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also had superb archery skills. Jian Xiao suddenly remembered the night when Gao Tianduo came to look for him, and he also used this method to threaten him.

Gao Tianduo's

The assassination of Zhang Qin must have been carried out by Shang Feng

"What did the empress see?" Tianjiao asked.

Jian Xiao shook her head, "Are there any suspects?"

Tianjiao thought for a moment, "When General Wei Zhu arrived, he was just busy rescuing His Majesty. A small group of troops went to follow the assassin, but lost him halfway."

"Where was it lost?" Jian Xiao asked.

"It was lost in the imperial garden," Tianjiao said.

"Were all the guards in the palace there at that time?" Jian Xiao asked again

"Yes, General Wei Zhu is guarding His Majesty, and General Guo Ziqing is chasing the suspect," Tianjiao said.

Jian Xiao nodded, "No one can tell anyone what I came here for today. If I find out, huh, you have to think about it yourself!"

Tianjiao knelt down and said, "Mother, Tianjiao only thinks about your majesty's good health right now. I don't think about anything else."

"You have one more thing to think about," Jian Xiao said, "I want to investigate Minlan's death thoroughly. If you hear any rumors or get any news, you must tell me."

"Tianjiao understands!"

After leaving the Imperial Study Room, Jian Xiao walked towards Qianning Palace. Zhang Qin had been living here for the past few days. Qianning Palace was shrouded in a strong smell of Chinese medicine. Standing at the door of the hall, Eucommia ulmoides was concentrating on writing about the house.

The maids and eunuchs were running back and forth, but no one noticed Jian Xiao's presence.

When she walked in, she saw Wan Yun, Concubine Gong Xian, Concubine Yan and other concubines standing there, each holding a handkerchief in their hands, wiping their tears.

Jian Xiao shouted softly, "Your Majesty!"
