Traveling to ancient times to become a princess, she wins every step of the way

Then the dead 'Ningxiang' in her mouth was the queen's eldest maid with eyes that reached the top of her head that she saw in the Imperial Garden today!

Such a woman who was so full of energy and ambition, she actually died on the cusp of death, in this heavily guarded palace?

Haha, this is kind of interesting!

Su Liluo didn't have any fear on her face like everyone else after hearing the news that someone had died. Instead, she continued to taste the wine in the cup leisurely.

But she found that the Jinxiu kneeling in the center of the hall seemed very different from the timid Jinxiu she had seen during the day.

At this time, she spoke clearly and clearly, and she was still able to answer questions so calmly when facing the emperor.

If she hadn't deliberately pretended to be scared in the afternoon, she would have dared to break into the Yilan Palace so calmly because there were important people in the palace who could support her.

Hearing Jinxiu's determined tone, the queen's dubious face quickly showed a heartbroken expression.

Turning her face, the queen looked at Emperor Dongling and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, Ningxiang is usually in good health, why did she die so suddenly?

I beg the emperor to make the decision for her! ? "

Seeing the queen so sad, everyone was moved.

Even the Queen Mother held the Buddhist beads in her hand tightly and recited a few words of 'Amitabha'.

That is because everyone's attention was on the queen and Jinxiu kneeling on the ground, but no one noticed the palace maid Qian Huan who had returned.

Only Su Liluo didn't believe that the champion of this palace fight would be someone who was so sad for the life and death of the little palace maid.

She looked at Qian Huan who came back quietly from outside, stood beside the queen, and seemed to be handing her a handkerchief, but in fact he said something to her ear.

Then, a stern look flashed through the queen's sad eyes, and then disappeared quickly.

Su Liluo smiled calmly, probably understanding the purpose of Jinxiu's visit today.

Lifting her clear eyes, Su Liluo looked at the queen who was still acting seriously, but she couldn't figure out why she was targeting him! ?

Is it possible that, besides haunting her son, the grudge between the original owner and her is also a secret that others don't know?

Hey, I really can’t figure it out, so I won’t think about it anymore.

Su Liluo simply prepared to lie down and wait to see how the play was going to go on.

"What are you thinking?"

Along with Long Yunxuan's familiar and deep voice rang in Su Liluo's ears, his unique faint scent of Qinan.

Her white and tender earlobes instantly turned pink due to his sudden hot breath.

Like peach blossoms in full bloom, they are delicate and eye-catching.

'cough! ’ Why is he always so close to me when he has nothing to do?

Su Liluo glared at Long Yunxuan and said, "The dead Ningxiang seems to be a very favored maid by the queen."

"How do you know her?"

Long Yunxuan used to often go to the Queen's Palace to pay her respects, but he never remembered the name of the maid next to the Queen.

After hearing Su Liluo say so confidently, he had a gut feeling that this woman must have done something bad again.

"Yes, it's what you think. After entering the palace today, I saw her and even beat her."

"what?"

Long Yunxuan almost blurted out and asked her why she hit the eldest maid next to the queen.

However, when the words came to his lips, he suppressed them again.

Forget it, this woman is someone who will never suffer a loss.

The palace maid named Ningxiang was beaten by her because she made her angry.

Long Yunxuan thought about Su Liluo's words in his mind, then turned to look at her.

"So you suspect that her death was probably a trap set by someone for you?"

Su Liluo spread her hands and sneered, "We'll find out later if we wait and see."

The answer was revealed very quickly.

The queen begged Emperor Dongling with tears in her eyes to get an explanation for Ningxiang's death.

Emperor Dongling suddenly became furious.

If so, even the eldest maid next to the queen could die quietly while being patrolled by the imperial guards.

Then as an emperor, isn't it also dangerous?

How can others sleep peacefully on the side of the couch?

What the emperor fears most is the presence of this kind of uncontrollable danger around him.

Emperor Dongling raised his thick eyebrows, looked at Jinxiu, and asked her where Ningxiang's body was currently placed.

Jinxiu cried and replied that it was in the Millennium Palace, guarded by the nuns and imperial guards from the Queen's Palace.

"Eunuch Hu, order people to go to Millennium Palace and carry the body of the palace maid Ningxiang to Qilan Palace!

Also, the people from Xuantai Hospital and the monks from Dali Temple came together.

Today, I want to get to the bottom of this matter! "

"The slave obeys!"

Eunuch Hu stood up in person, trotted out of Qilan Hall, called the soldiers guarding the entrance of the hall, and went straight to Millennium Hall.

Within a moment, Eunuch Hu and his men carried Ningxiang's body back.

For fear of offending the nobles in the palace, he temporarily placed it under the corridor at the entrance of the palace. Eunuch Hu took the people from the Imperial Hospital and Aunt Jiang from the Queen's Palace into the palace to recover.

"Old slave/Old minister, please see the Emperor, the Queen Mother, and the Queen."

Aunt Jiang and Imperial Physician Zhuang knelt beside Jinxiu, waiting for Emperor Dongling's question.

"Ping Sheng. Let me ask you, is the palace maid Ningxiang dead? What was the cause of death?"

"Back to the emperor, Ningxiang is indeed dead. As for the cause of death... please forgive me for my lack of knowledge. Except for some bruises on his heart, no other symptoms were found.

Therefore, veteran, I dare not determine the specific cause of her death.

The emperor was also asked to order an autopsy on the widows of Dali Temple before a conclusion could be drawn. "

Emperor Dongling frowned and said, "Oh? Is there a bruise on your heart?"

He twirled his fingertips slightly and turned to look at the queen.

"Queen, you, a palace maid, have you ever been punished during your lifetime?"

The Queen Mother has been worshiping Buddha for many years, and the palace clearly prohibits any concubine from punishing palace maids or eunuchs in private.

If someone makes a mistake, it will be handed over to the steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to judge and punish.

But now the imperial doctor actually said that the deceased palace maid Ningxiang had bruises on her heart, and Emperor Dongling's eyes were filled with chills.

The queen was surprised and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know about this! I have never lynched any maid in the palace, and I have never even punished her by kneeling."

"Um……"

Emperor Dongling looked at Jinxiu who was kneeling on the ground again, as if he still had something to say.

"Do you know where Ningxiang's injury came from?"

Jinxiu pretended to be nervous at first, then suddenly raised her head to look in the direction of Su Liluo, and finally turned her face, looking up at Emperor Dongling with worry.

"Back to the emperor, I dare not say anything."

"Don't dare to say?"

Ha ha……

Emperor Dongling sneered, his eyes darkened, and he suppressed his anger and said: "With me here, what are you afraid to say?

Don't worry, no matter what the truth you tell is related to anyone, I will not punish you.

explain! "

"Yes, I obey the order."
