Shen Qiuyun and Shen Qiuyu talked about coming out of her residence very late.

Seeing her flustered expression, Yin Xiang couldn't help worrying: "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Shen Qiuyun sighed heavily: "Nothing, let's go back!"

Back in Weiyang Palace, Shen Qiuyun sat on the bed and twisted the handkerchief in his hand absently, until Jun Ruohan came in, he relaxed a little, got up to greet him: "The emperor..."

"How, what did Qiu Yu say?" Jun Ruohan learned from Gu Fang that the Queen took the initiative to ask Shen Qiuyu.

"I've said a lot, the specific situation is to wait for my concubine to see Gu Shaoshi tomorrow, so let's talk to him directly!" Shen Qiuyun looked at him bewilderedly and said.

"That's good!" Jun Ruohan felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze, "You should rest, I still have some work to do."

Leaving this sentence behind, the emperor didn't want to stay here any longer, so he turned around and wanted to leave.

It's impossible for him not to feel Shen Qiuyun's thoughts about him, and he doesn't want to be so indifferent to her, but he is afraid that his eyes and movements will give her unnecessary illusions.

So try not to touch it as much as possible!

"Your Majesty~" This is the first time, Shen Qiuyun stopped him when he was about to leave, "Will you come back later?"

Jun Ruohan's eyes dimmed, and his words were somewhat cold: "You can rest at ease!"

Shen Qiuyun looked at his back without nostalgia, clenched the handkerchief in his hand, and a trace of suspicion and confusion flashed in his eyes.

Gu Fang failed to complete the task the day before, so he got up early the next day.

He didn't get up early to go to the palace to meet the queen, the main reason was that he had to spend a long time taking care of his hair.

After the hair is tied up, the longest part inside has to be pulled out to cover the long and short parts on the outside. This work is time-consuming.

He was working hard in front of the mirror, when Jiang Tong suddenly pushed the door open, and he was still very angry.

Gu Fang glanced at him in the mirror indifferently, and said casually: "Yo, whoever offended our second master Jiang, look at this pouty mouth, you can hang two strings of copper coins."

"Brother came to see me the night before yesterday, why didn't you tell me?" Jiang Tong folded his arms and looked at him.

Gu Fang was taken aback for a moment, he really forgot about it, probably because Uncle Fu talked too much in front of this kid.

"Didn't there be water in the palace that night? I forgot about it." Gu Fang's arms were sore, his hair was still like a bird, and it didn't get better at all.

Jiang Tong seemed to have a knife in his eyes, stabbed Gu Fang for a long time and finally accepted it: "Forget it, I will trust you for now."

"Why, have you decided to go back?" Gu Fang gave up on getting his hair done, and turned to look at him.

"Are you expecting me to leave so much?" Jiang Tong frowned, "I'm smart and capable, yet you expect me to leave."

"You are not only smart and capable, but you can also eat. If you really want to go, go, I think Jiang Ling has lost a lot of weight, and his face is not good-looking." Gu Fang walked over and patted him on the shoulder, " He still worries about you, and he cares about what you think of him."

"Really, really?" Although Jiang Tong was very happy to hear what he said, but he couldn't believe it, and there was no way to know whether this person was telling the truth or not.

"Believe it or not, but I have to tell you that Jiang Ling did commit a lot of crimes when he didn't have a falling out with Liu Taiwei, which he couldn't get rid of, but if you want to blame Fengxian, you can blame the emperor. !” Gu Fang stopped, straightened his girdle, and stepped out of the room.

in the palace.

A maidservant of fifteen or sixteen knocked on the bedroom door: "Second Miss, Second Miss, it's time to serve the Empress Dowager and get up."

The little girl waited for a while without getting a response, and knocked on the door again: "Second Miss, it's time to serve..."

Before he finished speaking, the door in front of him creaked and opened a crack.

The second lady didn't even cut in the door.

It's been a while since she served Shen Qiuyu's side, and the little girl still has some understanding of this Second Miss Shen's temper.

She didn't dare to go in rashly, so she could only poke her head quietly to see if the young lady got up, but she didn't want to see such a terrifying scene.

"Ah~"

As soon as Gu Fang entered the palace, he heard Lu Sheng say that Shen Qiuyu was afraid of sin, and he was so shocked that he couldn't react for a while.

"Shen Qiuyu, z-i'sa?"

Lu Sheng walked quickly, leading him to Shen Qiuyu's residence: "The emperor, queen mother and empress dowager have all gone, please follow me!"

Shen Qiuyu was hanged to death. When Gu Fang saw Shen Qiuyu's body, she had already been lowered from the top by the palace servants and was lying on the ground. The white silk was still dangling from the beam.

The unruly and domineering girl in the past was lying quietly on the ground without moving.

He couldn't describe his feelings, he didn't know whether to be sad for her or not worth it for her.

"Gu Shaoshi, look quickly, Qiu Yu, how could Qiu Yu..." Shen Qiuyun cried like a tearful person, hiccupping unceasingly.

Gu Fang stepped forward, and Imperial Physician Chen got up and shook his head at him: "Second Miss Shen, I have passed away."

As soon as these words came out, the Queen's sobs became louder.

"This child, what a hurdle you can't get through, you want to demean yourself like this." After all, the queen mother couldn't bear to see the girl who had served her for so long.

When things happened to this point, the cause of Lan Fei's death was about to be revealed, it was only Shen Qiuyu who killed Lan Fei, but she didn't expect the matter to be revealed so quickly, so she feared the crime and zi-i'sa.

But yesterday Shen Qiuyu gritted his teeth and refused to let go when facing his own interrogation.

Gu Fang reached out and touched Shen Qiuyu's chin. The marks on his neck should have come out when he was hanged, but...

His eyes flickered, he put his hands away and stood up: "Empress, can you tell me what you talked about with the second lady last night?"

While choking with sobs, Shen Qiuyun narrated the truth from Shen Qiuyu last night.

The concubines in the harem have been in the palace for a while, but Jun Ruohan has never looked at any of them, except for the snow ginseng soup made by Concubine Lan, which would be considered normal in any emperor's harem It's a thing, but it's not here with Jun Ruohan.

Even if it is only praised once, it can quickly spread in the harem and be envied by everyone.

Naturally, Shen Qiuyu heard about it, and she was jealous and envious, so she went to Lan Fei the night before to ask her for advice on making soup.

Shen Qiuyu's temperament is obvious to all, and she is still arrogant when asking for help. Naturally, Concubine Lan doesn't want to talk to her, and this soup is the only thing she can use to get the emperor's attention.

Concubine Lan heard that the emperor respected Concubine Wen very much, so she was inevitably moved by this, and made a bowl of soup to give to Concubine Wen in Suian Hall.

But she didn't want Shen Qiuyu to be persistent and follow her to the vicinity of Lenggong.

Concubine Lan couldn't bear her entanglement, so she said something to humiliate her.

"What did you say?" Gu Fang interrupted her at the right time.

Shen Qiuyun pursed her lips, as if hesitating.

"Empress, it's about two lives, please don't hide it." Gu Fang said.

"Concubine Lan, she said that Qiu Yu never had the fate to enter the harem in her life, which made her die. She also said... She also said that she and I have different fates. One can be a queen, and the other can only be a girl for the queen mother. "The queen gritted her teeth, as if she felt the anger of Shen Qiuyu at that time.

"With Qiu Yu's haughty personality, how could he listen to these words? The two of them quarreled, and then moved their hands. On impulse, Qiu Yu pulled his belt and strangled him to death..."

Concubine Lan died, and Shen Qiuyu was also stunned. She didn't think about shā're:n, but the current situation is already here, and she quickly calmed down after panicking.

She knew that the ice cellar was built under the cold palace, and in such weather, there was very little ice food in the palace, so she came up with the idea of ​​hiding the corpse.

Hiding the corpse in the ice cellar, even if it is discovered, it will be next summer.

At that time, even if you want to check, it will be difficult.

It's not as good as God's calculation, but it was precisely that night that the Suian Hall caught fire and burned down half of the cold palace, so what she did was exposed.

The queen was shocked when she learned the truth, so she persuaded Shen Qiuyu to surrender, but she didn't expect such a result.

After hearing the whole story, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Gu Fang nodded: "Since this matter has been clarified, I will return to the Zhang Jiansi. It is only the body of the second lady. I hope the emperor will allow me to take it back to the Zhang Jiansi for inspection."

"Okay." Jun Ruohan said.

"Check?" The queen was puzzled, even with a questioning tone, "The truth has been revealed, what do you need to check? My sister is dead, even if she killed Concubine Lan, she has paid for her life now , do you still want her to be restless after death?"

"Queen empress, please calm down. This is just the normal procedure of the Zhangjian Division. It is reasonable to say that the autopsy should be done by the autopsy. The medical doctor Chen is very skilled, but after all, he treats the living. The file of the Zhangjian Division needs a little more A detailed autopsy case, please understand, Madam." The doubts in Gu Xin's heart are getting bigger and bigger.

"Take it back to the Zhangjian Division!" Jun Ruohan opened his golden mouth, even if the queen wanted to stop it.

Shen Qiuyu's body was carried away, and the Empress Dowager was helped back to Yongshou Palace.

Gu Fang took two steps toward Jun Ruohan, glanced at Shen Qiuyun from the corner of his eye, and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to tell you."

Jun Ruohan nodded: "Come with me to the study!"

"Yes."

Gu Fang bowed his head and followed behind Jun Ruohan.

"Your Majesty..." the queen called out from behind.

Jun Ruohan paused: "Yinxiang, help the queen to rest!"

"Yes."

Gu Fang followed Jun Ruohan to the imperial study room. As soon as the door closed, he immediately grabbed the clothes of the person in front of him: "Shen Qiuyu is not z-i'sa."

Jun Ruohan was startled, and turned to look at him: "What did you say?"

"Shen Qiuyu didn't commit suicide. There are two strangle marks on her neck. Although the distance is very close, they can't be created by hanging."

"You suspect..."

"Queen."
