Zhao Meiren seemed to be frightened, and seemed to recall some particularly frightening memories. When Liang Xiao asked her this question, she trembled violently!However, because of Liang Xiao's attention, all the concubines have gathered together now, and everyone is looking at her, waiting for her next words.

When there were many people, Zhao Meiren seemed to be encouraged, took a deep breath, and said: "Just, just a few days ago, one day when I got up in the morning to make up, I just opened the face powder and felt a chill on my ankle. It seemed that there was something wrong. The cold thing crawled past my feet with a 'swish'. I was too scared to move, so I asked the eunuchs to see it. They said there was a green thing crawling along the base of the wall. I asked the eunuchs to catch it. That thing crawled very fast and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Later, they saw it in the flowers outside at night and said it was a big long insect!!"

After Zhao Meiren finished speaking, she covered her face and began to cry again.

The rest: ...

We don’t understand the world of snakes, but since they have climbed up your feet, but they didn’t bite anyone, and they don’t attack people when they are found, they only know how to run—this sounds a little illogical.

Liang Xiao also felt that what Zhao Meiren said seemed to be full of loopholes, because the snake she met seemed to have a different temper from the snake that attacked the emperor and Gao Biyan just now. After all, one was actively attacking people, and the other was cowardly. La hides from people as soon as he sees them. If this is the same snake, wouldn't he be too smart?

However, the snake that can attack people has been chopped into pieces. If Zhao Meiren said that the snake is not the same as this one, then it must be found and eliminated as soon as possible if it does not attack people. After all-the world of snakes, We don't understand!

After Liang Xiao bid farewell to the concubines and explained the situation to His Majesty the Emperor, he hurriedly led people straight to Chuxiu Palace.

Zhou Feiqi and Gao Yue were not in a hurry to leave the Royal Garden at the moment. They were a little secretly funny when they heard what Liang Xiao told Zhao Meiren. Two Gu worm breeders came out, followed by traces of boa constrictors, and those who didn't know it could think that the people living in Chuxiu Palace are all strange things from the harem."

"Wonderful flower gathering place." Zhou Feiqi also nodded helplessly, and said, "Want to go and have a look?"

Gao Yue thought for a while, and said, "It's okay, anyway, it's okay to be idle."

The two went to Chuxiu Palace hand in hand.

Seeing the emperor move, the other concubines followed suit.So, like the effect of candied haws, behind Gao Yue and Zhou Feiqi, a group of Yingying Yanyans of different heights followed.Because of this, when Qi Sheath rushed from the lover's house in the east to the imperial garden in the north, he saw the emperor walking in the front holding Gao Yue's hand, followed by a large group of concubines, and a group of people was heading west.

Qi Sheath just heard that Gao Yue was attacked by a snake, so she ran out in a hurry.He was worried about Gao Yue, and seeing that he was doing well now, he felt relieved.It's just that he can't understand what the situation is right now—forget it, let's catch up first!

After a while, even the concubines didn't realize when there was an extra Qi Liang at the end of the brigade.

At this time in Chuxiu Palace, the rest of the concubines went to see the emperor in the imperial garden, Xiangou Juanjuan was wandering around the courtyard with her maid, the two of them whispered a name while turning around—'Egg yolk?Yolk, where are you, egg yolk?Come out, I made you your favorite flower cake, while they are not here, come out and eat—”

"yolk--"

The maid was also shouting, and the two of them searched around in front of the corridor and behind the hall, but they didn't find the so-called 'egg yolk'. Xiangou straightened his waist and asked her maid: "Have you looked in the flowers?"

The maid said: "I've searched twice, it's usually hidden there," the maid said, pointing to a 'flower bush' where all the flowers had disappeared, and said: "Princess, could it be that the flowers are gone, it's too hungry, Did you go somewhere else?"

Xiangou Juanjuan thought for a while, and said, "No, it's so timid, it dare not sleep at night without me hugging it, how could it run out by itself..."

Maid: Hehe, that may be your misunderstanding of 'cowardly'.

The two were discussing, when they suddenly heard chattering outside the courtyard, they quickly picked up the food box, ran back to the house, and looked out through the window.Then I saw a large group of guards rushing in first, followed by the emperor and Lord Bi Yan holding hands, and then almost all the concubines in the palace came——

Salty Hook Rolls: Suddenly have a bad feeling?

Then, she heard the sobbing sound that belonged exclusively to Zhao Meiren. Zhao Meiren pointed to the piece of gnawed flowers and said, "Your Majesty, I heard from the eunuch that they found the snake here!"

Zhou Feiqi winked at Liang Xiao, and Liang Xiao hurriedly led someone to investigate.

Gao Yue stared at the 'weird' flowers, and whispered to Zhou Feiqi: "Weeds are not randomly planted in the palace, right? Why is there not a single flower in that area? Isn't it the season when jasmine blooms? Is it time?"

"It looks like Jasmine. There are many plants in the Empress Dowager's palace. I just saw it this morning."

"I'll go and have a look." Gao Yue said.

Gao Yue came to this piece of flowers without flowers, borrowed Liang Xiao's scabbard, and just flipped through it twice when he heard a loud sound of opening and closing the door behind him. The princess in front of Zhou Feiqi knelt in front of Zhou Feiqi, she was clearly saluting, but she tilted her head and stared in her direction. To be precise, she was staring at the knife and sheath in the hands of herself and Liang Xiao, but her eyes were wary and cold.

After discovering these, Gao Yue has basically deduced the outline of the incident.He returned the scabbard to Liang Xiao, and walked towards Xiangou Jujuan.Xiangoujuanjuan finished his salute now, and stood among the concubines, seeing Liang Xiao put the saber back into its sheath, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.However, she was still surprised by Gao Yue's sudden approach, frowning as she watched Gao Yue approach step by step...

Seeing her like this, Gao Yue smiled and asked, "Xiangou Rongyuan, have you seen a green python these days?"

Xiangou Juanjuan's complexion changed several times under the watchful eyes of everyone, and then he seemed to think of something, and immediately denied it, saying: "No."

"Oh, that's good. That thing can attack people. Today it attacked His Majesty in the Imperial Garden. Now it has been beheaded by the guards. You can rest assured."

Gao Yue observed Xiangou Jujuan's face while talking, and when she saw that she heard "beheaded", she trembled all over. If she hadn't clenched her fists to hold back, she might have cried on the spot—Gao Yue had basically concluded , this snake was brought into the palace by Xiangou!

Moreover, with Xiangoujuan's reaction, the snake is probably still her pet.

But keeping snakes as pets is still too inappropriate. After all, giant pythons are fierce and attack people violently. If they are not killed, there will be endless troubles.However, Xiangou Juanjuan refused to admit it, and it was meaningless for Gao Yue to expose her, but the warning he should have given was still not forgivable, so he said: "The beast enters the palace, fearing that it will hurt people. From now on, Mr. Liang will need to send more people. Strengthen the search and training, and ensure the safety of the masters of the harem is the first task."

Liang Xiao hurriedly cupped his hands in salute, and said, "I will obey the order."

After Gao Yue finished speaking, she walked to Zhou Feiqi's side. His Majesty the Emperor waited for him to approach, and asked softly, "Are you tired? Why don't you go back to the palace?"

Gao Yue replied 'yes'.

The two left hand in hand, leaving behind a courtyard of concubines, staring blankly at each other.After a while, everyone felt that they had brushed their faces in front of the emperor again today anyway, and the emperor's attitude towards them seemed to have not changed at all. They felt so boring for a moment. There was a cry, this time it was no longer Zhao Meiren, it was actually a salty hook roll——

Concubines: What do you mean?Why do people in Chuxiu Palace love to cry so much?

Concubine Han couldn't stand a delicate woman the most, and always felt that she was a pretentious vixen, so she curled her lips first, and said disdainfully, "Who is pretending to be pitiful?"cut! 'The emperor is gone, even if you cry, he won't look back at you!Shame on me for nothing!

Unexpectedly, upon hearing the words, Xiangou Juanjuan threw himself in front of Concubine Han, as if in urgent need of venting some emotion, grabbed Concubine Han's skirt, cried and asked, "Who are you talking about?!"

For a moment, Concubine Han even felt that her feet had left the ground. Fortunately, she was from the Marquis of Wu's Mansion, so she was somewhat capable, so she immediately used a heavy weight pendant to avoid being picked up by this skinny little girl. Embarrassed, but her hot temper was aroused because of this, she stared and shouted: "Let's just talk about what's wrong with you? Let's talk about you! Are you pretending to be pitiful when you cry? !"

"What do you know?!" Xiangou wiped away tears, pushed Hanbi away, and squatted on the ground with her arms folded. She was crying out of breath, and her tears were like broken beads. Unclean, still muttering: "My egg...broken...□□..."

Concubines: ...

Mother, what did I hear? ! — The egg is broken? ——Is this person the princess of Gaoshan Kingdom?

"Egg yolk!!! Woooooooooooooooo!!!"

What the hell is an egg yolk?

Concubines, look at me, I look at you, this time I am more completely confused.

Gao Yue and Zhou Feiqi came out from Chuxiu Palace, and Gao Yue had already whispered his deduction to Zhou Feiqi.

Zhou Feiqi said: "Accordingly, it is impossible for a concubine to bring that kind of beast into the palace. The inspection is very strict when going out and going in this palace. The snake must have crawled in by itself. It's just that it will attack people suddenly. Hook's appearance just now also seems very unexpected. Perhaps it was not her special arrangement."

Gao Yue said: "I think it may have something to do with the flowerless jasmine bush. Is there a snake that eats flowers for a living?"

Zhou Feiqi shook his head, the animal world is also a super topic for him.

However, Gao Yue pondered for a moment before saying: "Do you still remember what Zhao Meiren was doing when she said that the snake crawled on her feet for the first time?"

"Well, she's doing her makeup."

Gao Yue said: "No, she said that she just opened the powder box, I think the snake may be sensitive to the fragrance of flowers or fragrance, similar to the smell that can arouse its appetite."

"You mean, that snake attacked you back then because of the fragrance of lilies left on your body?" Zhou Feiqi shook his head with a smile, gave Gao Yue a helpless look, then sighed suddenly, and said, "Oh, now I'm It's really fallen."

Gao Yue:?

Zhou Feiqi said with a smile: "It's nothing more than guarding against men and women, but you also want to guard against snakes. Isn't it degraded?"

He didn't wait for Gao Yue to react after he finished speaking, so he hurriedly walked to the front.

Gao Yue: I ¥..., suddenly I'm so irritable!

His face was flushed, and he was about to call Zhou Feiqi to reason, when he heard someone behind him anxiously calling his name.Looking back, it turned out to be Qi Sheath who hadn't seen him for a long time.

Qi Sheath was obviously chasing him, and his forehead was covered with sweat on this crisp autumn day. Gao Yue hurriedly raised his sleeve to wipe it for him, but Qi Sheath quickly took a step back, reminding in a low voice: "Don't touch me!" , You smell like lilies all over your body. I don't want to be infected by you at this time!"

Well, then I don't care about you.

Gao Yue said: "You are running in such a hurry, is there something wrong with Jingyang Palace?"

"No, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I want to talk to you, can't I?" Qi Sheath wiped off her sweat, looked at Gao Yue with a smile, her tone was brisk, she didn't see her for a long time, but she didn't seem to be born at all point.

This makes Gao Yue feel very good, friends should be so comfortable.Instead of being polite, it seems rusty and awkward.

"Okay, why can't it work? I haven't been back to Jingyang Palace for a long time, let's go, let's go back and have a look." Gao Yue put on the sheath and walked on the southeast palace road.

Qi Sheath hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Aren't you going to tell His Majesty?"

Gao Yue smiled, "Someone will tell him."

This person is of course Eunuch Hu.When Zhou Feiqi strode out for a while and found that their family Gao Biyan hadn't followed, he asked someone to ask, and Eunuch Hu hurriedly said: "Gao Biyan met Qi Liangren by chance, and he has returned to Jingyang Palace."

Zhou Feiqi only nodded, but felt a little bored, thinking that it seems that it is not enough to guard against men and women against animals, one must always guard against some brothers in the palace, otherwise, if the wife is not careful, the wife will be killed. Who can bear it if someone cuts off the bullshit—oh, His Majesty the Emperor thinks that it is too difficult for him!

After many days, Gao Yue returned to Jingyang Palace, which made all the people in Jingyang Palace as happy as New Year's Eve, really happy from the bottom of their hearts.Although they have never provoked anyone on weekdays, and no one dared to provoke them, the degree of toughness of the waist is really different to them when the master is in the hall and not in the hall!

When Gao Yue came back, Qi Xie obviously found that the palace people in Jingyang Palace were working more vigorously, and they all seemed to be beaten suddenly, and their spirits and spirits had improved by more than one level!

Seeing this, he said to Gao Yue: "When you come back, everyone seems to be celebrating the New Year." Then he asked, "If His Majesty doesn't call, will you go back to Jiyang Palace?"

Gao Yue said with a smile: "If you don't go back, Jingyang Palace is my territory."

Qi Sheath laughed immediately.

Although Xiao Fuzi and Xiao Xingzi run between Jiyang Palace and Jingyang Palace these days, they can always see their master every other day, but that feeling is really different from being able to serve them every day. After all, Jiyang Palace is where Eunuch Zhang and Eunuch Hu are. After all, this Jingyang Palace is really the base camp of the two of them.Today when Gao Yue came back, the two of them naturally waited on them more attentively, for fear that the master would leave them behind after living in the Extreme Sun Palace.

Gao Yue felt an inexplicable sense of belonging from the performance of these people in Jingyang Palace. He thought that if people get along with each other for a long time, they will always form some kind of bond and relationship invisibly. He even felt that Jingyang Palace It was the first team he led in Dazhou. So far, it seems to be quite successful.

Qi Sheath followed him into the main hall, and Gao Yue asked casually: "Why didn't you see Qiao Liangren? I thought of inviting you to dinner at Jingyang Palace tonight. Didn't he keep arguing about eating at Yongshou Palace?" Is it the skill of a chef?"

Qi Sheath smiled awkwardly. Some words he said were actually inappropriate. Xiao Xingzi happened to be beside Gao Yue. Hearing this, she curled her lips and said, "Master, you don't know that you are not in Jingyang Palace these days. Here, that chef has long been used by Qiao Liangren as his private cook! The servant dare not speak of that beloved man, and he would not listen to what Qi Liangren said about him. Gao Biyan is not such a stingy person when he mentions it. , Then block everyone's mouths! If he wants to use it, do you know how much he is going too far? He even used the chef assigned by the Queen Mother to please the Yihexuan Those three, the servant is really going to be mad at him!"

"Ah? What's the matter?" This was beyond Gao Yue's expectation. He looked at Qi Sheath and saw Qi Sheath nodding with a dark face. Huan...I really underestimated him. But why did he get so close with Sanfan and those guys?"

Qi Sheath said: "To ask for a picture of a beauty."

"Picture of beauties?" Gao Yue was puzzled, "Isn't he able to draw pictures of beauties by himself? Is there anyone else who can draw better than him among the brothers that Sanfan sent this time? At that time, I didn't see them show..."

"No, Qiao Huan painted it himself. He wanted to paint Baiyu Mingxuan, saying that the flowers in the imperial garden just bloomed just right, and only good flowers and beautiful women could make his masterpiece. But Baiyu Mingxuan refused to go to the imperial garden, so he let He painted in the Yihexuan, but he felt that the Yihexuan could not be used, so he has been in a stalemate for many days. Now, he grows up in the Yihexuan every day." Qi Xie said, quite a few I hate the feeling that iron is not steel.The main reason is that he can't understand Qiao Huan's behavior of rushing to stick to other people's cold ass.

Gao Yue didn't know what to think of, just nodded and didn't ask any more questions.Then he said to Xiao Xingzi: "I will live in Jingyang Palace for a few days, so you can call the chef here, I have something to tell him." He stood up and added: "Call the chef directly to the study. , I command him alone."

He said he wanted to talk alone, Qi Sheath wisely didn't follow him.

Gao Biyan's position in the harem has long been unrivaled in the hearts of the palace people. He wants to see the chef, and the chef is naturally terrified.Moreover, he heard Xiao Xingzi muttering "Qiao Liangren" just now, thinking that although he was only forced to take advantage of it, he still listened to someone other than Gao Biyan, and wondered if Gao Biyan would blame him for a while !

Therefore, as soon as the chef saw Gao Yue, he knelt down with a plop——

"Gao Biyan knows his mistake, please forgive me this time, I will never dare to do it again!"

Gao Yue thought to herself, is this a typical guilty conscience? I didn't say anything, so I asked, "Tell me, you made those mistakes!"

The chef said: "First, I shouldn't have cooked for Mr. Qiao Liang without knowing it from you. What I use is your share; second, I shouldn't have lent the kitchen of Jingyang Palace to Qiao Liang." People use it, return it, and hide it for him; third, I shouldn't take his money, I will take it out and return it to him now!"

"Is there any more?" Gao Yue was expressionless, but he was a little surprised in his heart. He thought that Qiao Huan was taking the opportunity to take advantage of Jingyang Palace when he heard what Xiao Xingzi said just now, but now that he heard what the chef said, it was obvious. And the inside story.If there is an inside story, of course we must continue to dig deeper!

The chef faltered, his eyes wandered, and he could guess it just by looking at his expression, there must be something else.

Gao Yue didn't urge him, and leaned directly into the chair, looking very patient.

After a while, the chef seemed to have made up his mind, and Bang Bang kowtowed several times to Gao Yue, saying: "I shouldn't deliver food to the cold palace for him!"

Leng Gong? !Gao Yue pondered for a while before remembering, where is the place that can be called the Leng Palace in the Great Zhou Empress Palace now - the residence of the former Qing Shujun, Qing Shu Dian.Is there any unknown friendship between Lin Jingzhi and Qiao Huan?

It seems that I have not been in Jingyang Palace these days, and I have missed many good opportunities to observe secretly!Of course, it was precisely because I was not there that some people might have let down their vigilance, and the tip of their little tails would be revealed quietly. Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to discover these clues...

After weighing it for a while, Gao Yue opened her mouth and said to the chef, "I don't care how much money Qiao Liang gave you, but I have 1000 taels here. If you want to get it, you have to do as I say. You can clear?"

The chef was stunned for a while before he understood what Gao Yue meant. 1000 taels might not be a big deal to rich people in Dazhou, but it was indeed a huge sum of money to him. This is not the main thing, the key is this The sum of money was prepared to be given to him by Gao Biyan, that is to say, Gao Biyan not only did not punish him, but also reused him? !

This result, to the chef, is comparable to pie in the sky!

He hurriedly rubbed his face, knocked his head three more times at Gao Yue, and said in a trembling voice: "Everything is according to the master's order."

"You get up first," Gao Yue said, his eyes gradually raised as the chef stood up cautiously, until he saw the chef standing still, he said again: "What did Qiao Liang do with our Jingyang Palace kitchen? clear?"

"He, he cooks for Lin Jingzhi with his own hands. He said, if the cook of my Yongshou Palace cooks for the guilty concubine, it may violate the empress dowager's taboo, so he has to do it himself."

"What did he do? How many days did he do? When did he deliver food to Lin Jingzhi? Why did he ask you to go for him?"

The chef said: "He does a simple job, that is, steamed buns, one delivery a day, three at a time. Every day he goes there while holding the lamp. Yesterday, he said he was going to the Summer Palace and it was too late, so he asked me to go for him .Because of this, he gave me 100 taels of silver. This silver slave will return it to him in a while!"

"No need." Gao Yue's face was a little dignified, as if shrouded in some bad premonition, he said to the chef: "Today, you and I can't let the third person know what you said. It's natural for people to get along, do you understand what I mean?"

How could the chef not understand, and nodded quickly.

Gao Yue said again: "You live in Jingyang Palace now, and you can be regarded as my Gao Yue's person. The characters and abilities of the people in my palace should be obvious to you after you have been here for so long. I just ask you a little bit, don't let me down, understand?"

The chef couldn't control his tears when he heard the phrase "It's also my Gao Yue's person". He nodded his head and kept saying "um, um", and the rest of the words were all stuck in his throat Eyes, it feels like nothing to say at the moment seems to have enough weight.

Gao Yue had already stood up, and said to him: "Don't cry, wipe away your tears, what should you do. Just remember my words!"

The chef knelt down and kowtowed, then wiped away his tears and retreated with red eye circles.

Gao Yue came out of the study, feeling that it was necessary for him to meet Zhou Feiqi. However, before he could step out of the door, Eunuch Hu's distinctive singing sounded from the gate of Jingyang Palace—"The emperor is here!"

Gao Yue thought to herself: This is really the right time!

He hastily went out to meet him, Qi Sheath had been waiting for him, and now he also hurriedly came out together.

Zhou Feiqi waved away everyone's salute, but held Gao Yue's wrist with both hands to support him, and complained in a low voice in a voice that only two people could hear: "If you don't watch for a while, you will leave me and run away with others , my heart is broken, brother, how can you compensate me?"

Gao Yue couldn't laugh or cry, but now is not the time to flirt, he directly ignored Zhou Feiqi's coquettishness, and whispered: "I'm worried that something might happen to Lin Jingzhi!"

Zhou Feiqi immediately put away his dishonest face, held Gao Yue with one hand, and said, "It's said inside."

Qi Sheath stood in the yard, watching helplessly as the emperor ignored him and dragged Gao Yue in.Qi Sheath felt that the emperor seemed to be deliberately giving him this dog food, so that he could gain some self-knowledge?Forget it, I'd better go back to my beloved's place for a while.

Gao Yue was dragged into the study by Zhou Feiqi, and told him what the chef had just discovered. Zhou Feiqi was a little puzzled after listening, and said: "Qiao Huan entered the palace because his father, Minister of Rites, personally came to tell me about it. , He said that his unworthy son went crazy every day in order to collect pictures of beauties in the world, clamoring to enter the palace to paint my portrait, he really had no choice but to beg me."

Gao Yue said: "This can only show that it was a good idea for him to enter the palace in the first place. Now we have to go to the Leng Palace to see if there is any problem with Lin Jingzhi. If there is no problem, then it is my overthinking. If something happened to Lin Jingzhi, then Qiao Huan would definitely be involved. If something happened to him, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Master Qiao would probably be implicated as well. Now is the critical period for the preparation of the great tribute, and it is the time for the Ministry of Rites to contribute. If there is a change in the harem at this time, I'm afraid that the big tribute will be delayed in the end."

"Don't worry, I'll tell Anri to go to the Lenggong now to have a look."

After he finished speaking, he pushed open the window. Because of the backlight, Gao Yue didn't see what gesture he was making, but a black shadow passed by, and the dark sun was already in front of him.

Zhou Feiqi said concisely, "Now go to Lenggong and see how Lin Jingzhi is doing."

The dark sun drifted away like another gust of wind, and Gao Yue was stunned by this wind-like skill.Seeing his expression, Zhou Feiqi leaned over and muttered in a low voice, "I can do it too, and my lightness kung fu is also very good".

Gao Yue: ...

Why, is this kind of thing also jealous?

An Ri left and didn't come back for a long time, Gao Yue vaguely felt that something must have happened.Seeing that he was worried, Zhou Feiqi said, "Don't worry, let's go and have a look?"

Before Gao Yue could answer, Eunuch Hu ran in sweating profusely, "Your Majesty, something happened in Leng Palace! Lin Jingzhi is dead."

Gao Yue's heart sank.

Zhou Feiqi pulled him up and said, "Let's go, accompany me to have a look."

Gao Yue nodded, without saying a word, and was also very silent along the way.He always felt that today's matter should not be deeply thought about, because if he cast aside the layer of sand and mist on the surface, he could see a bottomless well, which was right in front of him, bottomless, like a well Someone had figured out his temper and carefully prepared for him, just waiting for him to jump off without hesitation.

He thought, in today's round, someone forced him to make a choice—forcing him to make a choice between saving others and protecting himself!The layout man is obviously a master at playing with human nature, so Gao Yue knows very well that when faced with this choice, he will undoubtedly choose the latter!Because he has never been a holy father of Bailian, no matter how sensible and magnanimous he is every day, when life and death are at stake, he will definitely give priority to himself!

He is like this, let alone the chef!

Now, just look at this game, who else is involved!

It's a pity that he just said that to the chef just now!

In the cold palace, Liang Xiao had heard the news and came with his guards, An Sun seemed to have disappeared into the dark again, at least Gao Yue and Zhou Feiqi didn't see him when they arrived.This palace was originally repaired according to the specifications of the four monarchs. After Lin Jingzhi's fall in the harem, Gao Yue stepped into it again in just a few months.

Zhou Feiqi held Gao Yue's hand tightly, and led him through the grass that had been left unattended for a long time in the courtyard. When he came to the corridor, he smelled a stench of blood before entering the hall.Kneeling at the entrance of the main hall were two young eunuchs, shivering shiveringly, as if they were about to pee at any time.

In the hall, two forensics were doing an autopsy. Gao Yue covered his mouth and turned around to retch after only one glance——

It was because Lin Jingzhi's body seemed to have been bitten by some ferocious beast, his skin was torn apart, and he sank to the palace!

Zhou Feiqi glanced at it, frowned, and while holding Gao Yue on his back, he turned to ask the two little eunuchs, "What's going on?"

One of the little eunuchs trembled and said: "Yesterday, yesterday, the chef of Jingyang Palace brought some steamed buns to the common people. After the common people ate them, there was a passion wave in the middle of the night, and then he went crazy. The servants were afraid to approach him, so he was given food this morning, and he ate it—there was an empty bowl in the small door, that, Your Majesty, the servants dare not lie, I really don’t know when he disappeared! "

They don't know, but Wu Zuo can deduce it.

Almost as soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, one of the assistants inside scolded him angrily, saying: "This man obviously didn't get it in the middle of the night last night, how dare you bully the king like a slave?!"

The other servant stood up, and after paying respects to the emperor and Gao Yue, he said calmly: "Your Majesty, Lord Bi Yan, the officials can be sure that Lin Jingzhi, the common man, died in an ugly death for three moments last night. This corpse I won’t lie, and the various characteristics of the body can be tested by anyone. I hope your majesty will learn from it!”

When the two young eunuchs heard this, they quickly kowtowed and said, "The servants are not lying. He did eat the meal that was sent to Lin Jingzhi this morning! The chef of Jingyang Palace specially left that meal last night. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake that was served in the morning was said to be more nourishing for the stomach. The slave didn’t even dare to take a bite. It was put in the small door this morning, and it was eaten up in the blink of an eye. There were still crumbs on the ground. The door of this hall is locked Now, the keys are not in the hands of the servants, so the servants couldn’t have thrown it so far away on purpose! Even if we think about it, we can’t reach it!!”

Gao Yue vomited and slowed down, instead of asking the chef how he was, he first asked Wu Zuo: "Has the common man's cause of death been found out?"

Wu Zuo said: "Looking at the wound, it seems that he was attacked by a big snake. The snake's teeth are extremely poisonous, so he died of poisoning. Besides, he really had a passion."

After Gao Yue finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Feiqi, and the two of them understood each other with just one look. No need to say much, Gao Yue knew that Zhou Feiqi was in a rage at the moment, and also understood that the source of Zhou Feiqi's anger was nothing more than his realization that someone was involved in this round. Targeting Gao Yue! ! !

Fearing that Zhou Feiqi would run away suddenly, Gao Yue hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "The chef is appointed by the Queen Mother, Your Majesty needs to handle it carefully." It is rare that President Gao can still maintain this rationality at this time, and calmly see through the situation in front of him.

Zhou Feiqi took a deep breath and said to Liang Xiao, "Suppress these two eunuchs. Go back to Jingyang Palace."

On the way back, Gao Yue saw Zhou Feiqi walking fast, so he stretched out his hand to hold him back, and said softly and patiently: "Don't be angry, just like our analysis just now, this result at least shows one point, if the chef said it right It's all true, Qiao Huan is definitely not clean. However, if you move him, you will implicate the Minister of Rites! Right now, someone is setting up a situation for me, and then testing your bottom line, Aqian, you have to calm down first, think Think about how we broke this situation!"

Zhou Feiqi stopped and took another deep breath.He looked at Gao Yue carefully and said, "I don't want to hide it from you, I really want to kill that stupid cook right now! But I know, it's a human life, you don't want to see such a result , but right now, killing him is the easiest way!"

Gao Yue was startled, and blurted out, "The two little eunuchs just now...?"

Zhou Feiqi didn't speak, turned around with a gloomy expression, and continued to move forward.

——Liang Xiao naturally knew how to deal with those two little eunuchs. Does he still need to teach them? !

Gao Yue looked at Zhou Feiqi's back, and realized for the first time that as an emperor, Zhou Feiqi's back looked very lonely and cold, like a soul-snatching knife on standby, if he hesitated a little while cutting at the enemy, he might be crushed In his own body, there is the back of the heart, and it can kill him with a single stab!

Zhou Feiqi like this looks both distressing and frightening!

Gao Yue thought, for 20 years, the environment makes people, but no matter what, he will accompany him.So, he quickly chased after her, held Zhou Feiqi's hand tightly, and passed on the warmth of his palm without reservation.

Gao Yue thought, I love him anyway, no matter what he becomes, this will not change at all!

Zhou Feiqi held Gao Yue's hand tightly with his backhand almost the moment he was held by Gao Yue. His hand was a circle bigger than Gao Yue's, and now he completely wrapped Gao Yue's hand in, like a water bag absorbing heat, Wrap it tightly and fit tightly, for fear that the hot water will flow out and empty yourself.

The two went back to Jingyang Palace all the way, but when they reached the official road leading to Jingyang Palace, they saw Xiao Xingzi rushing over in a hurry.

"Master!!" Xiao Xingzi yelled from a long distance away, and at this glance, he knew that something serious had happened. Fortunately, he still knew the seriousness, so he didn't yell in the street, but went to Gao Yue and gave it to the emperor. After saluting, he lowered his voice and said, "The chef committed suicide. Before he died, he left a bloody book on the wall of our small kitchen. He wrote a lot of nonsense. Do you want this slave to shovel it immediately?"

Gao Yue said: "Go back and have a look."

When the group returned to Jingyang Palace, Gao Yue clearly felt that the way the palace people looked at him and the faint atmosphere were quite different from just now. It seemed that the chef's blood letter was still very powerful.

There were already quite a few palace officials standing outside the small kitchen, chattering and trembling.When they saw Gao Yue and the emperor coming down, they quickly stopped talking and bowed to avoid it.

In the small kitchen, the chef was bleeding from all seven orifices, leaning against the wall, and there were several lines of bloody words on the wall behind him——

Bi Yanjun, this servant was lucky enough to take out the thorn in your heart for you. Now that Mrs. Lin is dead, this servant is afraid that the wronged soul will disturb your dreams, so I will use my life to pay off the debt!I hope you cherish and take care!In the next life, the servant will be a cow and horse again to repay your kindness!

"What are you still doing?! Carry it away! Shovel it!"

Zhou Feiqi's face was cold, and he gave an order, and everyone quickly followed suit!

After Gao Yue was stunned for a moment, he grabbed Zhou Feiqi and asked, "Is Jinzhou Governor's Mansion in Jicheng?"

He just said such a word, Zhou Feiqi immediately understood what he wanted to say, at this moment, the frost on his face seemed to thicken again, the sun was shining brightly outside, but the surroundings of the emperor seemed to be three feet frozen, which made people feel uncomfortable See you, just want to take a detour.

"It's not just to frame me, it's probably to intensify the officialdom struggle in Jicheng!"

When Uncle Lin Qing had an accident, Zhou Feiqi wanted to help the Li family in Lin's governor, only dealt with Uncle Lin Qing and did not move Mr. Lin's position as governor.Later, the father of Jicheng prefect Wang Meiren was dismissed from office because of the case of possession of Gu worms.
