"She suddenly had abdominal pain. Go, go to the palace." The palace maid whose hand was scratched by Yingchun replied.
Luo Zhangyi had no doubt that he had it, and lowered his voice and said: "As soon as she comes in, take action immediately. The movements must be fast and accurate, and she must not be allowed to escape. Otherwise, we will not be able to escape today, and our lives will be in danger."
Did you hear that clearly?"
Their purpose today is to kill Yingchun!
Everyone nodded in unison.
They were somewhat excited when they thought that a palace maid like Yingchun would soon die in their own hands.
Everyone has been waiting for almost a quarter of an hour, but the Spring Festival has not come back yet.
Luo Zhangyi suddenly felt something was wrong, "Did she run away because she realized something was wrong?"
Everyone had strange expressions. Remembering the sudden abdominal pain that Yingchun suffered before and scratching someone before running away, everyone was confused for a moment.
Originally, after finishing the work today, everyone went their separate ways. Who knew that the prey might escape before taking action? How could this be fun?
"What are you doing? Go and arrest people!" Luo Zhangyi's expression suddenly changed and he shouted loudly.
At present, everyone in the Siyi Department has been summoned by Shang Gong of the Shangfu Bureau to lecture them. They don't have much time, and if they don't hurry up, their achievements will be in vain.
After Luo Zhangyi gave the order, everyone rushed towards Gong's room. However, before they reached Gong's room, they saw thick smoke coming out of it, followed by the sound of someone shouting that water was running out.
Of course, this person was not Yingchun. She managed to use the charcoal used by the palace maid to cook medicine to light Gong's room on fire, and then hid, just waiting for someone to find out that Si Yisi had gone missing.
With such a huge smoke, someone would soon notice something strange here, right?
All she had to do was wait until there were a lot of people and then sneak out and escape.
As for the arson, she refused to admit it was her fault.
When she heard the chaotic footsteps, she peeked out and saw someone she recognized, Luo Zhangyi.
She didn't dare to observe anymore and hid herself.
Not long after, many people came to put out the fire with buckets of water. Even the people from the Department of Clothes, who were listening to the lecture of Shang Gong of the Shangfu Bureau, came back. For a time, the Department of Clothes was overcrowded.
When Yingchun saw so many people, he quietly blended into the crowd.
The maids and nuns who had wanted to harm her had already taken advantage of the chaos and left Si Yisi. Luo Zhangyi was still there, organizing everyone in Si Yisi to put out the fire in an orderly manner.
Luo Zhangyi felt that someone was looking at her. She suddenly turned around and looked at the source of her strong gaze, but she didn't see anyone.
Could it be Yingchun who spied on her just now?
If the fire was set by Yingchun, it means that Yingchun would have thought of escaping after he discovered that Si Yisi had hidden murderous intentions.
After Sizhu, who was in Yong'an Palace, heard the news that Si Yisi had escaped, he hurriedly reported the matter to Mu Ci.
Mu Ci took Sizhu and rushed to Si Yisi. When they were halfway there, they saw the gray-faced Yingchun.
The moment she saw them, Yingchun grinned and said, "Don't worry, my lady, I'm fine."
She said and flew into Mu Ci's arms.
Mu Ci hugged Yingchun tightly, "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay..."
"Luo Zhangyi of the Siyi Department wanted to harm this slave..." Yingchun couldn't wait to tell what happened. At the end, she asked: "Do you want to take down Luo Zhangyi?"
Mu Ci pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "I have no one to use now. You escaped before Luo Zhangyi could take action just now. Without witnesses or physical evidence, she won't admit it. It's better to keep an eye on Luo Zhangyi from now on."
Yi, let’s see who she associates with.”
However, Luo Zhangyi might be reduced to an outcast, and I am afraid that the other party would not keep such a person in the harem.
"Could it be that we just suffered the loss of being dumb and Yingchun suffered this sin in vain?" Sizhu wiped the pot ashes on Yingchun's face distressedly.
Thanks to the police officer Yingchun, the girl escaped from this disaster. Otherwise, even if he died in Si Yisi today, the real culprit would not be found.
She couldn't imagine that Yingchun had not noticed something strange about Si Yisi today, and that Yingchun would have disappeared.
Thinking of this possibility, Si Zhu's eyes turned as cold as ice.
"It's only my fault that I have caused trouble to you." Mu Ci muttered absentmindedly.
I wonder if she would ask Dugu Liancheng to treat her as the queen mother again, would Dugu Liancheng agree?
Being the Queen Mother is much better than being one of his concubines.
"This slave is not blaming the empress, it's my fault." Sizhu's face turned pale and she did not dare to look directly at Mu Ci.
"If I had known this, I might as well not have escaped. Maybe I could have found out the person behind Luo Zhangyi." Yingchun was also a little annoyed.
Her words made Mu Ci's face change slightly: "What are you talking about? Nothing is more important than your safety. Only by being alive can we find out the real murderer. If your life is gone, how can you find the murderer? With you like this
stupid?!"
Yingchun was lectured by Mu Ci so that she did not dare to raise her head. In the end, she poured tea and water and said that she was wrong. Mu Ci softened his expression: "You go down and rest first. I have other plans for this matter."
After Sizhu took Yingchun and left, Mu Ci called Feng Jiu to him and told him that he had done something.
Feng Jiu always liked her when doing things, so it would be best to leave this matter to Feng Jiu.
That night, Luo Zhangyi committed suicide by throwing himself into a well near Beigong. It was not until the next day that someone discovered that Luo Zhangyi was missing, and later fished his body out of the well.
Mu Ci actually received the news last night. Just because she sent Feng Jiu to keep an eye on Luo Zhangyi's activities, she had confessed that even if someone wanted to kill Luo Zhangyi, there was no need for Feng Jiu to come forward, he would just
You just need to find out who killed Luo Zhangyi.
Feng Jiu did see that person's face, but there was no surprise. It was Xiao Dengzi, Huang Xiurong's chamberlain.
Huang Xiurong suffered at her hands, so he vented his anger on Yingchun. Was he just trying to slap her in the face?
Huang Xiurong was not very scheming, but had a great temper. She used this method to scold Huang Xiurong with twenty sticks in public, and Huang Xiurong held a grudge and wanted to attack Yingchun.
If it weren't for Yingchun's quick reaction, he might have become a victim. It seems that Huang Xiurong has to be given a longer memory.
Huang Xiurong should never, never should have killed Yingchun. She would let Huang Xiurong know that it was not she, Huang Xiurong, who had the final say in this harem.
"Feng Jiu, please check Huang Xiurong's preferences and whereabouts. Furthermore, who she has close contacts with, I want to know everything about her." Mu Ci gave Feng Jiu another order.
A smile appeared on Feng Jiu's lips. This is the nature of the empress who must avenge herself.
Ever since he saw the panic-stricken look on the Queen Mother's face when the Emperor attacked Yingchun in the back garden that day, he knew that the Queen Mother was back.
This time Yingchun almost lost his life, the empress will definitely take revenge for Yingchun.
"Yes, empress!" Feng Jiu responded loudly, followed the order and left.
Mu Ci shook her head and laughed. Feng Jiu was still the same as before, which made her happy.
Seven days later, Huang Xiurong's injuries were much better and she could finally stay in bed and walk.
