Mr. Huang nodded and said: "How is the eldest brother? Didn't you say before that he had a close relationship with Mr. Yugui? After this incident, have you figured out Mr. Yugui's true face?"
Xianyue stroked her forehead and said, "Yonghuang is still young, and it will take some time to recognize the truth, but I think he already knows something."
"That's good." As she spoke, Mrs. Huang saw Xianyue showing a hint of fatigue and said, "It's been a long day, and I'm tired too. Please go back quickly."
Xianyue was indeed tired, she nodded and said: "Okay, if you have anything to do, send someone to inform me. Don't be polite to me, you know?"
Huang Shi smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry, I'm concubine. I won't be polite."
In such jokes, both Xianyue and Huang regarded each other as people they could truly trust, rather than the casual acquaintances they had before.
In the harem, the easiest thing to say is trust, but the hardest thing to achieve is precisely trust!
For many days after that, Xianyue tried to find evidence from Yu Guiren that she had harmed Yongxun, but the latter was leaky and could not find direct evidence to prove that she was related to the matter.
As for Yonghuang, he has never been to Shiyan Guanyuxuan since he came back that day. In addition to practicing riding and shooting every day, he just stays in Jinlian Yingri Garden and is in a daze. He often loses consciousness for half a day. Xianyue knows
He was thinking about what he said to Mr. Yu, so he didn't rush him and let him think about it slowly.
The news about Yongxun reached Yanxunshan Pavilion the next day. Mingyu specially called Xianyue and asked her what happened. After hearing Xianyue repeat the matter, she stroked her chest and said:
"Fortunately, Fourth Brother has deep blessings, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."
"Yes, and the person who murdered the fourth elder brother has not been caught until now. Because of this matter, Yibi has trouble sleeping and eating, guarding the fourth elder brother and not daring to leave."
"No wonder Concubine Yi is so nervous. It was because of my carelessness that I caused Yonglian to die in vain. Looking back on those days, life is really worse than death."
Xianyue said guiltily: "It's all because of my concubine's fault for making my empress sad."
Mingyu waved his hand and said: "The matter is over. I am fine. The most important thing now is to catch the murderer of Fourth Brother and bring him to justice. By the way, does Concubine Xian have any suspicions?"
Xianyue shook her head and said: "I am ashamed, I still have no clue, but I will definitely do my best."
"That's good." After Mingyu asked a few more questions, he ordered Xianyue to retreat. When she left the Yanxun Mountain Pavilion, Mingyu suddenly threw the fan on the small table and said: "Every day
It’s really uncomfortable to put on a show in front of her.”
Now Wei Jingxuan was already waiting beside Mingyu. When she heard what she said, she immediately said: "I know that Master is feeling uncomfortable, but for the sake of the overall situation, I have to wrong Master for a while."
"I know." Mingyu said impatiently and then said, "What do you think of what Concubine Xian said just now? Can you guess who wants to harm Fourth Brother?"
Zhu Yong shook his head and said: "Returning to the master, with only these clues, it is difficult for the slave to deduce who it is, but in this matter, Concubine Xian and Mr. Yu are both suspected."
After he finished speaking, Wei Jingxuan said, "I feel that Concubine Xian is the more suspicious of the two."
Mingyu's expression changed, he stared at her and said, "Where do you start talking about this?"
Wei Jingxuan lowered her head and said, "Although Concubine Xian kept saying that this arrow was not shot by the eldest brother, and she found a branch that was broken by the arrow, all this was just what Concubine Xian said, and no one knows whether it is true or not;
But the eldest brother is definitely there, and the arrow he used is exactly the same as the arrow that hit the fourth brother."
Mingyu frowned and said, "What you said makes some sense, but Concubine Xian and the eldest brother didn't know where the fourth brother would go beforehand. Could it be that it was a last-minute idea?"
Wei Jingxuan turned her eyes slightly and said: "Master, you have forgotten that Yu Guiren and Concubine Xian have always had a good relationship. Perhaps the whole thing is simply a plan set up by the two of them."
Mingyu's eyes lit up and she said: "Yes, I have ignored this point." At this point, she curled her lips and sneered: "Nala Xianyue, she is still as sinister and vicious as before.
Nothing has changed at all.”
Jin Qiu said: "Do you want me to go and investigate in secret?"
Mingyu thought for a moment and said: "Okay, if you can find out the evidence of Concubine Xian's crime, I will give you a lot of rewards."
While Jin Qiu responded, Wei Jingxuan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "If Concubine Xian's crime can be proven, Master will not have to worry about A Luo."
Mingyu looked at her and said with a smile: "You little girl, you have been here not long ago, and you have become more and more understanding of my thoughts. Yes, as long as Concubine Xian is convicted, A Luo will lose his support. By then, let alone
If you marry Fu Heng, it is unknown whether you will survive."
In Mingyu's view, both Xia Yue and A Luo are "heinous" people who should not live in the world, so when it comes to their life and death, there is no mercy or sympathy at all.
Their words happened to be overheard by Xia Qing, who came in to serve tea. After some hesitation, the latter gritted his teeth and whispered: "Master, can you allow me to say a word?"
Mingyu glanced at her, frowned and said, "What do you want to say?"
Xia Qing plucked up the courage and said, "I feel that Concubine Xian is not as the empress said, and she will not do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding."
When Wei Jingxuan heard this, she immediately became anxious. She knew very well Mingyu's hatred for Xianyue. Although she pretended to be nice on the surface, in fact, she was simply incompatible with each other. Mingyu couldn't bear to hear others speak for Xianyue.
She whispered: "Sister Xia, what nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you quickly admit your mistake to the master?"
Before Xia Qing could speak, Mingyu said coldly: "What do you think? Oh, it's really ridiculous. Why do you think Concubine Xian won't do such a thing? Why do you think there is a misunderstanding?"
Xia Qing was nervous in her heart, but she still replied: "Returning to your Majesty, when I was still in Xinzheku, I had an encounter with Concubine Xian. At that time, I sprinkled the Yuquan water sent to me, but she did not
She punished the slave, but instead rewarded the slave with clothes, so the slave thought that she should be a good person."
"Good person?" Mingyu repeated these two words, and the next moment, she laughed so loudly that she even shed tears.
After a long time, she slowly stopped laughing and stared at Xia Qing with a cold gaze, "This is really the funniest joke I have ever heard. Unfortunately, I don't... dislike it very much!" At this point
At this point, she slapped the small table hard and said in a cold voice: "Xia Qing, do you know your guilt?"
Xia Qing hurriedly knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "Please forgive me, I am saying this... because I don't want you to misunderstand me and hurt your friendship with Concubine Xian!"
