[Red House] Harem Road in Spring

"I want to report to your lord, Concubine Xian said that the princess lost the jade pendant half a month ago. The servant girl checked the booklet of the internal office. Half a month ago, the people in Concubine Xian's palace went to the internal office. Register the loss of the jade pendant."

"It was lost half a month ago, what a coincidence!" Yingchun said inexplicably.

"The concubine Xian wants to come to visit the empress and the eldest son of the emperor, but the slave said that the empress is resting and it is not convenient to see guests." Xiuju said.

"Very good, I don't want to see anyone in this palace at this time." Yingchun closed her eyes, her face was indifferent.

The reality and the situation forced her to think about who in the palace could attack Ding'er, and who was in conflict with her and Ding'er's interests.

There are only a handful of concubines in the palace. Guifei, Xianfei, and Jing Baolin are the only concubines who are still alive. If it is an ordinary harem struggle, who will it be among the three?

Although the imperial concubine has no parents, if the adopted one is registered, it will be no different from her own. Now that she has parents, it is entirely possible to fight for her own son.

Concubine Xian, who lives in seclusion in Yongning Palace, is currently raising the eldest princess alone, and according to visual inspection, it is impossible to have other princes and children in the future, and the Yan family is married to the Jia family again, unless the Yan family disregards Their girl's life and death in Jia's house, otherwise she shouldn't have plotted against her.

The other one is Jing Baolin, who has no children and no favours, and doesn't look like a murderer.

There were three people in total, but the results of the investigation told her that it was unreliable, and the one who was the least likely to be the murderer was the murderer. Similarly, the murderer might manipulate everything to make her look extremely suspicious, but in the following Wash off your stigma.

No matter how deep she hides, next, she will find out who is the murderer. She only hopes that it is not one of the three of them!

"Go, bring Guixiang up, I will interrogate in person." Yingchun said.

"Yes"

After a while, Gui Xiang, who was tied up with five flowers and stuffed with a rag in her mouth but still whining, was brought up.

"Let go of her mouth and let her speak." Yingchun said.

"Yes"

As soon as the stuffed rags were removed, Guixiang opened her mouth and shouted, "Your maidservant has been wronged, I beg Concubine Shu to investigate clearly."

All of a sudden, Yingchun could only sneer.

"I ordered everyone in the palace not to act alone, but you want to act alone?" Yingchun said sarcastically.

"Your Majesty is aware. At that time, the servant only had a stomachache. She wanted to go to the bathroom, but she was too embarrassed to call her roommate Axiu. That's why she made such a bad plan and asked Concubine Shu to be more aware." Guixiang cried with tears in her eyes, but she refused to admit it. .

"What a coincidence!" Yingchun said, she pointed to the handkerchief and asked, "Is this the handkerchief you hid?"

Gui Xiang's body froze, and she forced herself to say, "It's my servant's, but my servant never murdered the eldest prince. I can swear that if my servant murders the eldest prince, I will let my servant die!"

"That's right, you didn't murder the eldest son of the emperor, because you never had a chance to find the eldest son of the emperor." Yingchun said.

"If there is only one coincidence, it may be a real coincidence, but too many coincidences can only be carefully planned." Yingchun continued, "Your oath is really a coincidence, no, this palace is about to order someone to stick you to death." Death, it can be regarded as a terrible death|!"

"No, Concubine Shu~" Guixiang's eyes were full of panic and fear.

If I knew this earlier, why did I do it in the first place?

"If you honestly confess your guilt, and explain clearly who asked you to do it and who the connector is, I will spare your life." All the previous lectures lay the foundation for this sentence.

At this point today, Yingchun doesn't care whether the answer she wants is the result of coercion or temptation.

"Responsible? Who asked the servants to do it? No, no one." Gui Xiang shook her head, as if she would not give up until the Yellow River.

"No one? Have you considered whether you want to bear everything, cover the murderer, or care about the relatives at home? You must know that murdering the emperor's heir is a death penalty for killing the whole family. If you refuse to say who is the mastermind, then you are the mastermind. I'm afraid your whole family will go to the underworld to report." Yingchun asked inquisitively.

"No, it wasn't the servant girl who did it. The servant girl didn't murder the eldest prince." Gui Xiang refused to admit it.

Yingchun was a little angry, all the evidence was seized, but she refused to say anything, should she say that the murderer behind her was well trained.

"Mommy, take him to the darkroom and ask carefully." Yingchun said.

Don't blame her for lynching if the witnesses and physical evidence are complete and she refuses to admit it.

The place where Yingchun interrogated was only a wall away from the darkroom. She sat in the room, listening to the screams coming from the next door, and calmly knocked on the table. She was sure to catch the murderer hiding behind her!

"Let the maid Axiu come and answer." Yingchun said.

The inner ghost is in the same room as the palace servant Axiu. Since Axiu can sense something is wrong with Guixiang, maybe she knows more than that. She should talk to Axiu carefully, maybe there will be some clues.

"Slave Axiu pays homage to Concubine Shu."

The court lady Axiu was quickly brought into the palace, and when she heard the sound of torture coming from the next door, Axiu's body shrank, she was very afraid.

It was a great achievement for Axiu to discover Guixiang's anomaly. Yingchun said mildly, "Don't worry, as long as you don't betray me, these punishments will never be applied to you."

Hearing Yingchun's words, Axiu breathed a sigh of relief and assured her, "Yes, slaves will never dare to betray your mother."

Yingchun nodded, and said, "You can find out the abnormality of Guixiang, you are careful, then when you were in the same room with Guixiang, did you find other things, such as who Guixiang often contacts, which concubine in the palace you admire in your heart?"

Axiu showed a thoughtful expression, and after a while, Axiu said with a bit of self-ashamedness, "In the past, the slaves didn't pay attention to these things, but today, the servants realized that there was something wrong with Guixiang."

Yingchun nodded, "Tell me in detail how you found something wrong with Guixiang."

Perhaps there are some clues that even A Xiu herself has not discovered.

"Yes" Axiu said respectfully.

"At the beginning, the servant didn't notice anything wrong with Guixiang, but shortly after receiving the order from the empress to seal off the palace and the palace people not to act alone, the servant realized that Guixiang's mind was not in her right mind, and she was distracted from time to time. Later, she even wanted to sneak out alone. After the servant screamed, Guixiang made excuses that she had a stomachache and wanted to go to the toilet. She went out alone because the toilet was filthy, so she was embarrassed to let the servant accompany her. If you have doubts in your heart, report it immediately."

"You did a good job!" Yingchun boasted affirmatively.

"It's the duty of a servant." Axiu.

"Later, did you go to the bathroom with Guixiang?" Yingchun asked again.

She has learned about psychology. When asking a question, she should relax. It is best to keep her in a relaxed state. In this way, people can subconsciously tell the truth when asking.

"Going to go," Axiu replied, doubts flashed in her eyes, and she said, "But when the servant accompanied me, she just waited outside, and didn't know what Gui Xiang did in the room.

"En!" Yingchun nodded affirmatively, and Axiu's expression became more relaxed.

"Have you ever seen Guixiang use this handkerchief?" Yingchun asked.

"Yes, but in the past two days, I don't know why, the servant has never seen Gui Xiang use this handkerchief."

"That's reasonable, because Guixiang stained this handkerchief with dirty things and intended to harm others, so she didn't dare to take it out lightly. Is Axiu right? You are fine, would you like to come and serve by Bengong's side?" Yingchun's attitude Refreshing like a spring breeze.

"Slave is willing!" Axiu bowed in joy.

Yingchun nodded, and said, "Okay, since you are someone close to me, then you can do your part for me, come here, and tie up the maid Axiu."

Yingchun suddenly changed his face, but the maids and maids rushed forward, and Axiu was tied up before she could speak.
