Huzi, "Threat, can't help it?"

"It seems that our eyes can't be placed in the palace, we have to check outside the palace, you go and call Chen Zhao over."

"Okay," Huzi rushed out after hearing this.

Taking advantage of this time, Xue Yao quietly entered the inner hall. Although everyone was in Wanyue Palace these days, Jing Yi was always in Concubine Chen's room, and he didn't even have a chance to say a few words or words of comfort to him. He could only watch from such a distance, which made him feel irritable.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw a person lying on the stone table under the corridor. Just by looking at his figure, he knew it was Jing Yi.

The whole yard was empty, only him.

The fiery sunset glowed red in the sky, but it couldn't shine into the person in the shadow. The figure of that person was so lonely.

Jing Yi closed his eyes tightly, as if he was asleep, and there were still tears on his thin face, which made people feel distressed.

This child is crying even in his sleep, how sad it must be.

Xue Yao knew that he must not have had a good night's sleep in the past few days, so he couldn't bear to disturb him.Stepped forward and gently wiped away the tears that oozed out,

"If you cry, you will feel better, so just cry."

The sleeping person seemed to have listened to his words, tears fell like raindrops, and finally sobbed softly.

Seeing him crying, Xue Yao's eyes were flushed, and he wanted to hug him, but he didn't even have the courage to reach out, so he had to pinch his own palm hard. Such a feeling of powerlessness was really annoying. How did I become like a ghost who is afraid of my hands and tail like I am today.

But people will come to this yard at any time, if someone sees it, it will be bad for him and him, especially when Concubine Chen Gui is still seriously ill.

No matter how much unwillingness Xue Yao had in his heart, he could only swallow it, and stood silently on the spot, waiting until his crying faded away, and then he faintly heard a voice coming from the front yard, and then he disappeared from the Back around back.

What he didn't see was that after he left, the sleeping person suddenly opened his eyes and stared blankly at the direction he left for a long time.

In the front yard, Chen Zhao and Hu Zi also just arrived, and when they saw him coming, they nodded at him.

Xue Yao asked suspiciously, "Why is it so long? In this little time, I can go out of the palace twice."

Hu Zi turned his head, "Ask him."

Chen Zhao said with a serious face, "I just came back. I heard that you were looking for me. What's the matter?"

"Why did you go out of the palace?"

"I'm going to check these people, which ones have family members outside, and whether they may be threatened."

It didn't occur to him that he thought of this level earlier than them.

Huzi put Chen Zhao on the shoulders, "Sure, you boy, we just thought you'd already acted."

Isn't this admitting that he is stupid than others? Xue Yao's face was dark, and he didn't want to admit this fact.

"How about it, did you find any clues?"

"Have,"

As soon as Hu Zi heard that there was a door, he asked excitedly, "Who is it, which bastard is it? Tell him, my Lord Hu will teach him a lesson, and let him know what it means to live without seeking death."

"I have checked all the people in the palace who can eat and drink. There is a helper in the kitchen who is dumb. He has an old lady outside the palace. Back then, the imperial concubine thought he was pitiful and arranged him in the palace."

"What about his wife now?"

Chen Zhao was a little discouraged, "When I went, his old lady was already dead."

"Damn it," Hu Zi was about to curse when he saw Xue Yao rushing towards the backyard like a gust of wind,

"What are you doing? You're not in a hurry to serve dinner."

Chen Zhao thought for a while, "Not good," and then rushed out.

Hu Zi reacted slowly, seeing that the expressions of the two were not right, he turned the corner and said, "I'm a mother."

When a few people rushed to the kitchen, the kitchen was busy, and Chen Zhao asked directly, "Where is the dumb helper?"

The kitchen is full of old men and women. Seeing their curious faces, although they don't know each other, they know that they are the guards in the palace when they see their outfits.Not really scared.

One of the chubby old ladies said in a clear voice, "Why are you looking for the mute? He didn't come in the afternoon. We are still looking for him. No one answered when we called the door. He didn't even chop firewood when he wasn't here. No one picks it, and I don’t know what’s going on, so I have to say hello if I ask for leave.”

Xue Yao was anxious, "Then where does he live, let's go and see."

The old lady pointed out with her chin, "Out of this yard, there is the small room next to the warehouse."

The three of them hurried out again. An old man picking vegetables looked at him and shook his head.

"Young people nowadays, the road is not easy to walk, coming and going like a gust of wind, not stable at all."

The mute's room was next to the big warehouse of Wanyue Palace. Concubine Chen Gui felt pity for him and agreed to let him work in the palace.But this is the harem, how can it be so easy to enter, after all, you can only enter the palace after cleansing yourself.It's just that at that time he had no other choice, entering the palace was better than starving to death, so he was very grateful to Chen Guifei for rewarding him with this bowl of rice, at least he could support his old mother.

Dumb has also always been loyal, Chen Guifei saw that he was honest and obedient, and directly gave him the key to the big warehouse for safekeeping. Don't take it to heart.For the dumb, the only advantage is that they moved from the bunk where the low-class servants lived to the single room next to the warehouse, which is considered a good treatment.

The three of Xue Yao yelled twice outside the door, but no one answered, and Hu Zi kicked the door open.

The door was closed from the inside. When I rushed in, I saw a man hanging from the beam, with a tongue sticking out and eyes protruding.

None of the three knew the mute, but it couldn't be someone else who could hang himself in his room.

Huzi stepped forward and put the man down, sniffed for breath, but he was out of breath and had been dead for a long time.

Chen Zhao let out a long sigh, "Oh, it's one step too late."

Xue Yao was also helpless, "Let's look carefully and see if there are other clues."

This is the end of the matter, and there is no other way.

Several people rummaged through the room, but found nothing, only a piece of paper pressed under the teapot, which looked like a suicide note.

Xue Yao picked it up and saw that it turned out to be a beautiful face.

Seeing his weird smile, Chen Zhao took a look,

"Hey, this dumb guy doesn't look simple, he can write such good characters,"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and they both understood that the mute was probably not an ordinary mute.

Huzi asked, "What about this corpse? Do you want to have it checked by someone?"

It is estimated that the test can't find anything. This clue has been cleaned up, but the program still has to go, in case a treasure is found.
