Cailian quickly held onto Concubine Shen's other side and worked with Bai Lian to lift her back into the palace.
As for Eunuch Qiu, he also wanted to follow, but he was so frightened that he became incontinent and his pants were mostly wet, so he did not dare to enter the bedroom.
He never thought that serving the concubine in front of her would be so terrifying. If he had known this, he would have preferred Eunuch Xia to be on top of him all the time.
Bai Lian and Cailian helped Concubine Shen to the Arhat bed. Concubine Shen shouted loudly: "Hurry up, fast, fast, fasten the palace door."
It seemed that by doing this, the horrific scene I just saw could be kept out of the palace.
"Yes." Cailian and Bai Lian stepped forward, tremblingly closed the palace door, and fastened it with the bolt.
"Help me go into the inner room." Concubine Shen's legs were shaking now, and she couldn't leave.
Cailian and Bai Lian were actually not much better than Concubine Shen, but they still managed to carry Concubine Shen into the inner room.
Concubine Shen hugged the brocade quilt on the imperial concubine's couch and shook it. She looked at the Babu bed with low curtains and felt safer: "You move the green pool to the Arhat bed."
"Yes, the Concubine." Moving someone is not easy for Bai Lian and Cailian, not to mention that both of them were so frightened that their hands and feet were weak.
But the Dowager Empress ordered that they must do it. They couldn't hold her anymore, so they grabbed the mattress under Shen Bichi and dragged her out of bed.
"You should be gentler." Seeing that they were really struggling, Mrs. Shen had no choice but to get down from the imperial concubine's couch, "Put it here."
Bai Lian and Cailian placed Shen Bichi on the imperial concubine's bed, sweating profusely from exhaustion, but not as scared as before. On the contrary, Concubine Shen huddled in the bed and shivered.
She tried to calm herself down and ordered in a trembling voice: "Go and find out what's going on in the yard."
Cailian and Bai Lian shuddered after hearing what Concubine Shen said.
"Slave, please make a cup of ginseng tea for the concubine to calm down." Cailian is usually good at acting, but when she heard that she was going to the Shura field outside the dormitory, she quickly escaped.
Bai Lian had no choice but to bite the bullet and go out to send a message. As for how to interrogate her, she couldn't control it.
Concubine Shen drank two bowls of ginseng tea before she felt a little warm in her body, but her face was still pale.
Eunuch Qiu changed his clothes and was just about to go into the bedroom to serve him when he happened to meet Bai Lian who came out to send a message: "The High Concubine has ordered that this matter be investigated thoroughly."
Eunuch Qiu felt more miserable than eating coptis. He was scared to death even looking at those people, but how could he check them?
Shivering, he moved to those people and saw that Youan looked more like a living person. Eunuch Qiu knelt down next to him and tried it with his hands. Sure enough, he was alive.
Eunuch Qiu was overjoyed and quickly pinched You'an's man.
Youan slowly opened his eyes, his eyes empty and lifeless.
"You're finally awake." Eunuch Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. You'an is a secret guard and he can ask many questions while he's still alive. "How did you do this?"
Hearing Eunuch Qiu's question, You'an's eyes showed pain. He opened his mouth and finally said, "I want to see the concubine."
"Okay." Eunuch Qiu helped Fu Youan up and helped him walk to the door of the dormitory. He stretched out his hand and pushed, but the door of the dormitory did not move at all.
Eunuch Qiu had no choice but to knock on the door: "Guard You'an wants to see the concubine."
After Bai Lian entered the inner room to report, she opened the palace door.
You'an knelt outside the beaded curtain in the inner room: "Kowtow to the concubine."
"Who are those three... unrecognizable... people in the yard?" Concubine Shen huddled in the bed, her voice was broken.
You'an lowered his voice and said, "They are the assassins sent to Chongsheng Temple, Eunuch Xia and Youping."
Concubine Shen's brows were deeply furrowed. After hearing what Chen'er said during the day, the assassin and Eunuch Xia would not be held accountable. What did she mean by throwing such a bloody person into Juyuan in the middle of the night?
Concubine Shen took a deep breath and asked, "What's going on with Youping?"
"..." You'an remained silent.
Concubine Shen immediately understood what You An meant and asked Bai Lian, Cailian and Eunuch Qiu to guard outside the palace. The three of them reluctantly left the dormitory and waited at the door. Even though they were far apart, they could still hear the sound. The smell of blood permeated the air.
You'an told Concubine Shen about the interrogation he heard in the dungeon - Qiuhong, the maid in the big kitchen, put sweat medicine in the meals of Lanyuan's servants, Miss Bichi's maid Shuanghuan changed into the same clothes as the princess, To 'steal' the young prince out. Youping assisted Shuanghuan to sink the young prince into the pond of Zhuyuan in an attempt to frame the princess for murdering the young prince...
During this period, in order to silence them, Youping killed Qiu Hong and the secret guards of the young prince, and threw them into a dry well in the palace.
These were all confessions made by Shuanghuan. Youping suffered 108 tortures but did not reveal a single word.
After hearing this, Concubine Shen felt a chill spread from her back to her limbs - even though she either got straight to the point or asked circumstantial questions several times, Chen'er had no idea about the child's biological mother and how she suddenly had such a big son. Keep silent.
But just because this child was very favored by the Supreme Emperor and specially sent secret guards to protect him, we knew that this child could not move.
Even Emperor Danxu didn't dare to ask about this child. Is Bichi crazy? He dared to do something to this child.
Concubine Shen rubbed her forehead: "First untie Bichi's acupuncture points."
"Please, Princess, please forgive me for my inability to obey my orders." Pain and embarrassment appeared alternately on You'an's face, and his voice could not be lowered, "My martial arts have been abolished by the prince himself..."
Concubine Shen waved her hand: "Go down."
A line of fish belly white appeared in the sky, and it was almost dawn.
Concubine Shen fell down on the bed with a thud. She had these two useful secret guards, who could do many things for her that other slaves could not do, whether inside or outside the palace. But now, both of them are useless. Now, let alone having no one under her to do anything, she will no longer be able to find out any news from anywhere.
Concubine Shen was extremely tired. As soon as she closed her eyes, three people who looked like bloody gourds appeared in front of her eyes. The roots of her hair stood up instantly. Concubine Shen opened her eyes and sat up straight. If Chen'er gets up after dawn, What should I do if I come to her to raise an army and accuse her? Although Youping didn't recruit anyone, they were his secret guards, and Bichi was his niece. He couldn't get rid of the relationship no matter what...
Can't stay here any longer!
At dawn, Concubine Shen quietly left the palace with Shen Bichi and returned to the palace. Compared with the grand guard of honor with gongs and drums clearing the way when she arrived, she was as low-key as a thief.
After dawn, the maids responsible for cleaning the Juyuan and the women washing the toilet bowls got up one after another and started to work.
Concubine Shen always slept lightly. Except for a few personal attendants who stayed with her in the front yard at night, the others could only stay in a row of small houses built for them in the backyard and were not allowed to walk around the front yard. This caused , the servants in the yard had no idea what was happening in the front yard.
