Hearing that the tendons of the limbs were going to be broken, the fake housekeeper who was originally grim-faced became anxious, and began to resist even more violently.
"let me go!"
"Do you know which palace we are from?!"
"Be careful that I will let you have no good fruit to eat!"
Zhao Xi leaned down slightly, looked at their faces, and asked suspiciously: "I really don't know, who sent you here?"
"..."
The person who was still yelling just now fell silent, and began to yell at him, with particularly nasty swear words directed at him, and even saliva.
At this time, a servant ran back and whispered in Zhao Xi's ear: "Master Zhao, a maid's body was found in the well outside the Leng Palace not far away. It looks like it was thrown down not long ago. It may belong to the Longevity Palace."
Zhao Xi's eyes suddenly became bright when he heard his words, and the guard who was pressed and knelt on the ground looked at him with a bit of trepidation, and his curse words slowed down.
"What's the matter?" The servant who was pressing down also noticed something was wrong and asked suspiciously.
"What are you doing in a daze, don't you know what to do?!" Zhao Xi said coldly, signaling the servant to stop talking and go down to wait.
The waiter who found the corpse looked a little distressed, and stood a little further away with his head down. .
The rest of the people looked at them in surprise, but they didn't pay much attention, because there were more difficult things in front of them.
"Really, do you want to break their tendons?" Some people have never done these things, they are all servants in the palace, and they have hardly been in contact with blood.
On the contrary, there was a bit of stern expression on his face, but he didn't express it in a hurry, but waited for the one who handed Zhao Xi the knife to strike first.It just so happened that the man was hesitating with a dagger in his hand.
Zhao Xi's expression was bad, "What are you afraid of? If you can't do it, give it to someone who can."
"I, I, I dare not."
"Let me go!" The person suppressed by him struggled even more rapidly, because he saw the ready to move in Zhao Xi's eyes, and the killing intent welling up in an instant.
Zhao Xi snatched the dagger from his hand, and struck quickly and skillfully. If it wasn't for the guard's screams, those who didn't know would have thought he was slaughtering some kind of poultry.
Someone showed a look of unbearable.The guard had already collapsed into a puddle of mud, Zhao Xi didn't speak, he threw the dagger out, took out his handkerchief and wiped his hands, not sparing his face and fingers.
"It's up to you. You are going to bring people back to the Longevity Palace. If you accidentally let them break free halfway, this kind of fate will happen to you. I will go to the imperial doctor first, and you can do what you want."
His nails were very short, and there were blood stains between his fingers. Zhao Xi frowned and wiped them for a while, but they couldn't clean off the residue and a smell of blood.After a while, he folded up the handkerchief and put it in his arms, took one last look at them, turned and left.
He made a start just now, and someone who can do it has already picked up the dagger and started to act.
The rest ignored him, Zhao Xi turned around and headed towards Leng Gong.
The Leng Palace here is not far away, but it's not too close. There are few people, and few people set foot outside the Leng Palace. They must have ambushed here and intercepted and killed the two maids who were sent to the Imperial Medical Office to ask for an imperial doctor.
Killing people and then throwing their corpses into the dry well outside the cold palace is already a common method in the palace. Like this kind of well, even if the bones are rotten, no one will accidentally find her.
Zhao Xi ran to Lenggong to take a look. He had been in the palace for so long and rarely came to Lenggong. Remembering the entrustment of that mysterious woman that day, he thought of a way to send a message here.
On the other side of the tall vermilion palace wall is a plane tree, which is lush with branches and leaves, but there are many dead leaves underneath.And the well was by the wall.
There were so many leaves around the well that it almost covered a large area nearby.Zhao Xi looked down from the mouth of the well. It was dark inside, the water quality was poor, and there were many rotten leaves floating there. There was a dark thing inside, which seemed to be the top of a person's head.He just glanced at it and then turned his head away. For a living person to become like this, the visual impact is not as good as the psychological discomfort.
A little black cat was lying on the city wall basking in the sun, the sun shining through the gaps in the trees, it was stretching its body comfortably, looking lazily at Zhao Xi with a pair of amber eyes.
Zhao Xi somehow felt that the cat's eyes were familiar, but he couldn't find this part of the memory in his memory.
"Meow——" the black cat called out loudly at him.
Zhao Xi looked at him, took a while, and remembered that he had seen a black cat in Xilaitang a long time ago. It was about the same size as this one, and he didn't know if it was it.
The black cat barked straight at him, and after a few times, it became a little hoarse. Zhao Xi was extremely uncomfortable. He didn't know if it was hostile to him or what.
Because he didn't know how to convey the message, and he should go to the Imperial Medical Office now, and he couldn't stay for too long, thinking about sending someone over to say something later, he should leave now.
At this time, a female voice faintly came from over there: "Heitan, what are you calling, lazy cat?"
He paused, looked up at the yard, there was nothing but a black cat and a sycamore tree.
This voice was very soft, but very strange. He didn't know if it was the woman that day. He subconsciously imagined it was her, and found that this voice was not incompatible.
I think so, but I can't confirm it. He admired the cat: "This cat is so fat, and its coat color is also very beautiful."
The originally lazy cousin of the black cat became nervous, its tail stood up, and its amber round pupils stared at him, as if it was dissatisfied with the word 'fat'.
Zhao Xi coughed, only to hear a voice from over there asking him. "Who's out there?"
"..." Zhao Xi did not reveal his identity and chose to remain silent.
"There is no one outside the cold palace. It is deserted and deserted. Did you get lost here?"
"Correct!"
"Then where were you going?"
"Imperial Medical Office."
There was a moment of silence inside, and it took a while to answer him: "The Imperial Medical Office doesn't need to pass here, you're going the wrong way, how did you get here, go back, and go up the palace road."
"Thank you for showing the way, the servant girl will leave first." Zhao Xi was not sure about the identity of the person inside, but the Leng Gong had nothing to do with the outside, even if it wasn't the woman from last time.
Thinking about him, he went to the Imperial Medical Office, where there are more imperial doctors on duty during the day.Doctor Jiang was alone in front of the innermost desk, not knowing what was going on on the isolated island.
Zhao Xigong respectfully and sincerely invited three imperial physicians, and finally went to Imperial Physician Jiang tentatively.
Every imperial physician was far away from each other. Imperial physician Jiang glanced at Zhao Xi when he came, and the rest sat there without any reaction and went about their own business.Zhao Xi took the initiative to find him.
"I wonder if Doctor Jiang has time?" He asked in a low voice.
The old man glanced at him.
The medicine boy on the side has become much more obedient since the last time he personally delivered medicine to the Longevity Palace, and he didn't choke him, explaining: "Doctor Jiang is going to check the emperor's pulse in a while, and he doesn't have time."
Zhao Xi said "Oh", looked at the old man secretly, and said: "Of course the emperor is important, there has been no happy event in the palace for a long time, maybe the upcoming child of Princess Minglan will bring a different vitality to the whole palace Woolen cloth……"
Doctor Jiang's face froze slightly, and the movements of his hands froze.No one noticed this, he looked up and nodded calmly.
"What Zhao Zhang said is very true."

"let me go!"

"Be careful that I will let you have no good fruit to eat!"
