His Majesty is my ex-boyfriend
Chapter 41
The investigation fell into a bottleneck for a while. In fact, as an ordinary bodyguard, Bai Lu had no right to mobilize people, let alone bring out all the people around Concubine Mei for interrogation. Even Concubine Mei's interpersonal relationship was unclear.
Bai Lu faintly regretted becoming a bodyguard. If he had known earlier, he would have asked Chu Ya for a patrolling official, and he could arrest people openly. How cool... No, how righteous.
A few more days passed, and just as Chu Ya expected, the deterrent force of the family law gradually weakened, and Bai Lu's bad habits gradually surfaced again.
His patrols as the deputy head of guards were basically in the afternoon and evening, so he slept in at ease in the morning.
Seeing that he was sleeping soundly and deeply, Chu Ya didn't call him, but pulled the thin silk quilt to cover his stomach to prevent him from catching a cold, and then pulled the gold silk curtain over the bed to block the sunlight outside.
Finally, he called a few eunuchs in, lightly replaced the ice mirror in the corner with new ice, and the room became cool all of a sudden, Bai Lu seemed to feel a little cool in his sleep, and groaned comfortably Sound, turned over, hugged the quilt in his arms and continued to sleep.
Several eunuchs standing next to Bing Jian looked at each other in blank dismay: Your Majesty is up and dressed, and the 'concubine' is still lying on the bed, isn't it a little too rude?
Chu Ya couldn't help smiling, lifted a corner of the veil, leaned over and kissed Bai Lu's side face, but this kind of gentle good morning kiss was taken as a mosquito bite by some unscrupulous bastard. Pushed away impatiently.
Chu Ya was not angry either, and turned his head to tell the eunuchs in a low voice, "Stay in the outer room and come in to serve him when he wakes up. If he is still awake by the time, come in and wake him up. He sleeps too much during the day. It's easy to get dizzy."
Several eunuchs quickly took orders and bowed to send Chu Ya out.
Chu Ya was right, Bai Lu didn't move when he was asleep, the eunuchs pushed each other, and no one dared to go there first, and finally they had to stand shoulder to shoulder and call Bai Lu get up.
Everyone else can see how favored Bai Lu is. It is well known that he is proud of being favored. Just think about how arrogant and domineering Concubine Mei was when she first became a noble concubine.
The little eunuchs were also beating drums in their hearts, fearing that they would offend this nobleman and lose their heads.
But His Majesty gave the order first, so they could only bravely walk to the bed, through the indistinct veil, and softly called: "My lord, it's getting late, do you think it's time to get up?"
Bai Lu opened his eyes in a daze, and saw a few figures standing there in a daze outside the veil, with a few big faces pressed against the veil, looking at him without blinking, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
A sentence came to mind instantly: You wake up, the sex reassignment operation was a success.
Bai Lu stretched out his hand to touch his lower body in horror. Fortunately, the little brother was safe and sound.
The little eunuch outside asked again: "The clothes are ready, sir, do you want to change now?"
Bai Lu nodded subconsciously, "Okay, I'll get up now, what time is it?"
"Master, Zhong Ren just reported the time, and it's already time."
"Got it, put your clothes here and go out."
The little eunuchs were relieved to see him so easy to talk, and retreated after saluting.
After Bai Lu got up, he folded the quilt crookedly, got dressed, went to the side room to wash, but encountered difficulties when he wanted to comb his hair.
His skills are not good, and he can usually tie a loose and low ponytail, but now he is a guard, equivalent to a face of the palace, how important his appearance is, he can't go out so casually.
But these days his hair was done with the help of Chu Ya, now that Chu Ya is not around, Bai Lu can only find a little maid outside the house to help him comb his hair.
He was sitting in front of the mahogany mirror stand, and the little palace maid helped him comb his hair with a rhino horn comb, and said with a smile while combing: "Master's hair is so beautiful, thin and soft, as smooth as silk, and the color is also beautiful." Sooty black."
Bai Lu didn't pay much attention to these things, he casually murmured perfunctorily, just like dealing with Mr. Tony in the barber shop who kept asking for cards.
He stared at himself in the bronze mirror and was slightly lost in thought. If it was in the past, he would never have imagined that he would have such a weak day.
Although he didn't say how strong his body was and how solid his muscles were in his previous life, he was also a very fierce and powerful man, the kind who could barely compete with Chu Ya who had received orthodox iron-blooded training.
He used to be like a wolf, a cold glance could scare people into silence on the spot.
But now this appearance, even if it is staring at people, can only remind people of a kitten losing its temper, and it is not threatening.
Bai Lu closed his eyes, silently remembering his glorious years.
Suddenly, he saw the maid in the mirror who was conscientiously tying her hair, and a flash of lightning flashed in his mind, and an incredible idea popped up like the tip of a bamboo shoot.
Bai Lu's heart moved, and he blurted out: "If you have a knife in your hand now, wouldn't it be easy to kill me?"
The little maid was stunned for a moment, and after struggling to understand Bai Lu's words, her face turned pale with fright, and she knelt down on the ground with a plop, begging for mercy: "My lord, please calm down, but this servant dare not! How could this servant have such rebellious thoughts, let alone May bring a sharp weapon into the son's bedroom, ask the master to learn!"
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that!" Bai Lu quickly helped her up from the ground, and patted the dust off her skirt, "It's okay, you go down first, just pretend I didn't say anything."
The little maid's complexion improved slightly, but she was still a little panicked, and retreated out in a hurry.
In fact, Bai Lu didn't intend to scare her, it just occurred to him that if he wanted to kill Concubine Mei without anyone noticing in Yuehua Courtyard, the people around her were the most suspect.
When standing behind her to comb her hair, both hands were already busy around her head, so she took out a gold needle from her sleeve without leaving any trace, and quickly inserted it into the Baihui acupoint on the top of Concubine Mei's head, which seemed to be not a difficult task.
In addition, Concubine Mei loves beauty so much, she will definitely not let outsiders in before combing her hair, which greatly reduces the possibility of being bumped into.If Bai Lu was the murderer, he would definitely choose this method to kill.
Bai Lu rubbed his chin in embarrassment, thinking, could it be Bitao?That kind of little girl who has no strength to restrain a chicken can be ruthless to kill someone?And looking at this method, it is not a layman, it must have been trained for many years.
It happened that he was going to rearrange the roster of the guards with Geng Qing this morning, so he mentioned his guess to him by the way.
Geng Qing was writing the duty list booklet at the time, and looked at him strangely when he heard the words: "Isn't the case of Concubine Mei already closed?"
Bai Lu opened his eyes slightly, "What? The real culprit hasn't been found out yet, so why is the case closed?"
"The conclusion of the case has been issued at Dali Temple. I asked briefly, and it seems to be that Concubine Mei was dissatisfied with being grounded. She sneaked out of the palace at night and hid on the rockery to avoid the patrolling guards. She accidentally slipped and fell. When it reached the head, he was killed on the spot."
Bai Lu frowned, unconsciously pursing his lower lip.
Slip and fall and die on the spot?They really dare to speak nonsense with their eyes open.Could it be that there happened to be a gold needle standing upright in the rockery, and when Concubine Mei fell, it happened to be inserted into her head?No, depending on the position of the lily needle, unless Concubine Mei fell straight upside down, it would have exactly that effect.
They are obviously deceiving, deceiving the upper and lower!
But this closing statement seems to be full of loopholes, but it is actually perfect, because everything can be justified.
Concubine Mei shut herself in the house, and the servants in the palace did not dare to disturb her, which made sense.Concubine Mei pretended to be hiding in the house, but actually sneaked out of the palace, which also makes sense.Concubine Mei's body was in that state, and no further autopsy could be done.
Without actual evidence, it is impossible to overturn this closing statement.
Bai Lu wanted to go to Shen Chuyun for the golden needle, but before he could step out, he suddenly remembered what Shen Chuyun said to him that day, and immediately understood, he couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.
Bai Lu gritted his teeth, and cursed harshly, "Damn it! They're all in the same gang!"
They are all raccoon dogs!
The current situation is very obvious. Someone above wants to suppress the limelight of the case, so that Concubine Mei's death will be buried in the ground along with her body, and this person is so powerful that others have no room to comment.
Besides Chu Ya, who else could it be?
This is not deception, it is simply concealment.
So should he listen to Shen Chuyun's words now, be an obedient dog, and shut up when he shouldn't bark, or should he continue to search desperately?
Seeing his gloomy face, Geng Qing couldn't help being very puzzled, "What's wrong with you? You have such a scary expression?"
Bai Lu shook his head, "It's fine."
In terms of emotion and reason, Concubine Mei is his enemy and Concubine Chu Ya is his lover. Maybe Chu Ya killed Concubine Mei to avenge him, but this time Bai Lu's mind became more sensitive than usual. In other words, his instinct to perceive danger as a boxer made him feel that there was something hidden behind it.
If it's just revenge, there is no need to go through a lot of trouble.Concubine Wen said that Bi Tao came to Concubine Mei half a year ago, but she hadn't even crossed over at that time, so why did Chu Ya plant a killer beside Concubine Mei?
Chu Ya must be hiding something from him, Bai Lu hates this.
He looked at Geng Qing, and said in a low voice, "I think Chu Ya is responsible for Concubine Mei's death."
Geng Qing was so frightened that he fell off the chair and sat down on the ground, "Wait a minute! Brother, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. Do you know what you said just now?! "
Bai Lu retorted unhappily: "I'm not talking nonsense, I'm serious."
Geng Qing hurriedly jumped up from the ground and covered his mouth, then checked to see if there was anyone outside the window, and then said in a low voice and hurriedly: "The case is closed, brother, do you know what it means to close the case? That is, no further investigation is allowed. Already!"
"But that's not the truth..."
Geng Qing was very puzzled, "Didn't Concubine Mei have a grudge against you? Why do you care so much about the truth?"
Bai Lu looked hesitant, "No...I just..."
It's just that he doesn't like that Chu Ya hides everything from him and underestimates him.
And when I was worried about Chu Ya's safety and wanted to catch the assassin as soon as possible, Chu Ya knew everything, but said nothing, just stood by indifferently, and maybe secretly laughed at his useless efforts.
Thinking of this, Bai Lu felt very uncomfortable.
Bai Lu faintly regretted becoming a bodyguard. If he had known earlier, he would have asked Chu Ya for a patrolling official, and he could arrest people openly. How cool... No, how righteous.
A few more days passed, and just as Chu Ya expected, the deterrent force of the family law gradually weakened, and Bai Lu's bad habits gradually surfaced again.
