The queen laughed when she heard the words, the laughter was a bit joyful, but also mixed with a bit of sarcasm: "Princess Rui doesn't have to pretend to be weak and ignorant in front of this palace. The situation in the ** team, every confrontation, I have studied carefully, Princess Rui is really a heroine among girls. And Princess Rui's performance since arriving in Xia Kingdom, although not outstanding, but Xia Guo is not. For the place of Princess Rui, I have been thinking these days, if I am as old as Princess Rui, I am afraid that I might not be as good as Princess Rui."

The empress looked at Yunshang with burning eyes, but Yunshang only smiled lightly, and responded lightly: "Thank you, empress, for your praise."

"Bengong used this method to lure you here just to let you cooperate with me, and you had to cooperate with me. Because you don't know what happened to your concubine mother in your heart, and you dare not take your concubine's Make a bet with your life." The queen's face was a bit cold, but there was a gleam of light in her eyes.

Yun Shang had to admit that the queen guessed it right. Although she knew that the queen probably just ordered someone to find some things around the concubine mother as a threat, but she didn't dare to bet.

"If the empress has any orders, just tell the ministers, why bother..." Yun Shang had a bit of bitterness on her face.

"Why bother? Princess Rui's thoughts are not bad. If there is a slight mistake in this palace, I am afraid it will be lost forever. Princess Rui, I am here to ask you today, are you willing to cooperate with this palace? Now that Prince Rui is missing, you There is no longer any support." The queen looked straight at Yunshang, her voice was a little soft, but when it fell on Yunshang, Yunshang was a little out of breath.

Yun Chang was silent for a long time, looking at the plum blossoms that had already bloomed behind the queen. The petals of the plum blossoms fell to the ground and were trampled into the soil by people coming and going.

"Empress, why don't you tell me?" Yun Chang said quietly.

The queen laughed, "This Palace has received news that the Seventh Prince, Concubine Shen Shu, Mrs. Xian and the eldest princess have teamed up, the matter of Prince Rui's residence, and the matter of Liu's changing clothes are very likely to be done by them. , none of us will get a good end. What I want is to keep the queen, and you also need to inquire about the whereabouts of Prince Rui. Besides, Prince Rui and them are mortal enemies, so why don't we join hands and get rid of them together first? Kill all."

The queen's eyes were light, but there was a bit of firmness in her eyes: "What I want is your talent. What I have is power and the support of the entire Su clan."

Yun Shang pondered for a long time before slowly laughing: "It seems that my wife has no reason to refuse?"

The queen's smile became brighter when she heard this, "Then wish us good luck? It's just that this palace has to remind Princess Rui that in this harem, it's better for Princess Rui not to play with this palace. If this palace finds that there is something wrong with Princess Rui, then it will definitely not show mercy."

Yun Chang lowered her eyes and hurriedly agreed. The queen laughed again and stood up, "If Princess Rui is always this obedient, Concubine Jin will be fine."

After finishing speaking, the queen lifted her feet out of the pavilion, and led the eight palace people outside the pavilion down the rockery in a mighty manner.

Qianzhuo walked up to Yunshang and stood still, she didn't speak quietly, her martial arts are not weak, so she heard the words of the two of them just now.

The corners of Yunshang's mouth hooked slightly, and her hands fiddled with the strings for a while, the smile on the corners of her mouth became colder and colder, "One day, she will regret every word she said today." After Yunshang finished speaking, she smiled to herself again up.

Qian Zhuo's eyes fell on the piano, and he exclaimed: "Princess, your fingers are bleeding."

Yun Chang nodded, and lightly took out a carmine brocade handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped off the blood on her hands, and then stood up, "Let's go, go back to Zhaoxia Palace."

In the Zhaoxia Palace, Qin Yi has not returned yet, but Qi Ruihai is already standing in the outer hall waiting.

Seeing Yun Shang coming back with a light drink, Qi Ruihai hurried up to greet her, and bowed to Yun Shang: "I pay my respects to Princess Rui."

Yun Chang smiled slightly, and looked at Qi Ruihai: "Eunuch Qi came here this time, but there is a new progress in the case?"

Qi Ruihai quickly responded: "There has indeed been a lot of progress. The autopsy results came out. It said that although Liu Changyi died of drowning, his internal organs were all damaged. It should be that the internal organs were injured by a martial arts master. He was thrown into Yancui Lake, unable to struggle, and drowned to death."

Yun Chang raised her eyebrows: "Oh? There is such a master in the palace? Then why didn't Eunuch Qi go to find the murderer, but instead came to the Zhaoxia Palace, my princess?"

Qi Ruihai raised his eyes secretly, glanced at Qianzhu who was standing beside Yunshang, and then responded with a flattering smile: "The purpose of this official's visit to Zhaoxia Palace is to investigate the case. Except for discovering In addition to Liu Changyi's internal injuries, Xiaguan also found a small piece of fabric in Liu Changyi's clenched hand, which seemed to have been ripped off. The Xiaguan deduced that Liu Changyi might be struggling and ripped it from the murderer's body. down."

A bad premonition flashed in Yunshang's heart, and Qi Ruihai's voice became a little more serious: "The official asked the palace servants who waited on Liu Changyi in Mingcui Palace to identify him, and they all said that it was on the body of a maid next to the princess. The cloth on the clothes. I heard that Liu Changyi first had a conflict with the maid yesterday, and I heard from those palace people that the maid seems to be good at martial arts?"

Yunshang noticed that the body beside Qianzhuo was stiff, so she sneered, "Oh, so it was aimed at the maid of this princess?"

Hearing this, Qi Ruihai was terrified, quickly glanced at Yunshang's face cautiously, then looked at Qian Zhuo and said, "Is this aunt? I wonder if aunt can show me the clothes I wore yesterday. ?”

Qian Zhuo looked a little ugly, and said coldly: "I can't."

Hearing this, Qi Ruihai's face was full of embarrassment, and he looked at Yunshang with a bit of begging, and Yunshang said indifferently: "I'm sorry, this girl's temper has been spoiled by this princess. Have a drink, go and drink Bring over the clothes you were wearing yesterday."

Qianzhuo said with a straight face: "The clothes I wore yesterday were indeed torn in a small piece, but they were torn off during the daylight yesterday when I clashed with Liu Changyi at Luoxia Pavilion."

Yun Shang paused for a moment, sighed in her heart, then raised her eyes to Qi Ruihai, wanting to hear what he had to say.

Qi Ruihai was also taken aback when he heard what Qianzhuo said, and quickly bowed to Yunshang again: "It's just that the cloth was dragged by Liu Changyi when he was dying. The official may need to bring this aunt back to the Intern Prison to ask a few questions. Don't worry, Madam Wangfei, if this aunt hasn't done it, nothing will happen."

There was a bit of indifference in Yunshang's eyes, he nodded lightly, turned around and said to Qianzhuo: "You and Eunuch Qi go to the inner servant's prison together, don't get angry." He raised his hand and gently brushed his hair.

His light eyes fell on Yun Chang's hand, he pondered for a long time, and finally responded: "Your servant understands." Then he bowed to Yun Chang and walked in front of Qi Ruihai.

Only then did Qi Ruihai hastily leave, and left the Zhaoxia Hall together with a light drink.

Yunshang sat quietly in the hall, Caiyi walked in from the outside, and kept turning her head to look outside the door after entering the hall, with a bit of worry on her face: "Princess, isn't that Qi Ruihai, the internal guard?" ? Why did he come? He also took the girl away."

Yun Shang raised her eyes and glanced at her, then curled her lips coldly and said: "I'm afraid someone wants to target me, Qian Zhuo is the only maid around me who knows martial arts, and I was accompanied by many hidden guards." , but the hidden guards cannot enter the palace, so there are only Qianzhuo and Qinyi, and now Qianzhuo who knows martial arts has been taken away, if someone wants to harm me, I have no power to fight back."

Caiyi seemed a little startled, and said after a while: "How can anyone in this palace be against the princess?"

Yun Chang smiled and stood up, "Who knows? Everything is possible. Come in and make a pot of tea for me. I want fruit tea. I can't drink other teas when I'm pregnant. By the way, those palace people in the palace You are more familiar with it, so you send someone to the internal servants to help me inquire about what happened to Qianzhuo, and I hope you don’t use torture.”

Caiyi quickly responded, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Then Qi Ruihai has always been a bully and shy of the hard-pressed, and the servant just saw that Qi Ruihai was very respectful to the princess outside the door, so I think she will not neglect Miss Qianju."

"I hope so." Yun Chang frowned, answered casually, and turned to enter the inner hall. What she was thinking in her heart was that this palace lady named Caiyi was actually watching the movement between her and Qi Ruihai outside the door, maybe it was not as credible as she imagined.

Caiyi didn't know that Yunshang was already suspicious of her, so she continued to whisper: "I will send someone to the inner guard to have a look." After saying that, she turned and left the inner hall.

Yunshang went to the soft couch and lay down, frowning slightly. Obviously, the person behind the scenes should know her situation very well, and knew that Qian Zhuo around her knew martial arts, so he specially targeted Qian Zhuo . Just, who will it be?

It shouldn't be the queen, if it was the queen, she would have threatened this matter before, and she wouldn't keep mentioning it.

After a while, Caiyi came in with tea, poured tea for Yunshang, and then bowed and retreated. Yun Chang picked up the teacup and took a sip, but her tongue was scalded by the hot tea. Yun Chang frowned, put down the teacup, and swallowed the tea in his mouth silently.

Not long after, Qin Yi went back to the inner hall, saw Yun Shang was taking a nap on the soft couch, so she stood aside without making a sound. Yun Shang had already heard her footsteps, so she opened her eyes and said softly, "What's the matter?"

Qin Yi hurriedly said: "Your servant asked carefully, after Qi Ruihai left Zhaoxia Palace, he went to Weiyang Palace. And..."

Qin Yi wanted to continue talking, but Yun Shang abruptly interrupted Qin Yi, "Got it, the tea is getting cold, go and help me make a new pot of tea."

Qin Yi was a little puzzled, but seeing Yun Shang staring at the door of the inner hall with a bit of coldness in her eyes, she suppressed her doubts, picked up the teapot and turned around to leave the inner hall. \u003c
