Views:

As soon as the words came out, everyone laughed. Even if He Xiangyu was killed, this life was worth it.

Su Xi'er put down the bowl and chopsticks and looked at the court ladies who were laughing and laughing around the wall. She saw a lot of people like this.

"Su Xi'er, are you in a hurry to leave in such a hurry?"

These palace ladies really care about her, Su Xi'er sneered to herself, but when she turned her head, she was smiling all over her face, "washing the chamber pot, is it an urgent matter? Are you going to be with me?"

"You do this kind of thing yourself, don't bring me together." The maid who made a noise looked disgusted, she remembered Mu Tao's lesson, the chamber pot was so smelly that she didn't want to touch it at all.

Su Xi'er didn't reply, she just raised her foot and walked out. Now she must go back to sleep and keep her spirits up.

However, after not taking a few steps, I saw a group of guards coming in front of him. The guards headed by them were tall and very serious.

Bring a knife guard, come to Ye Ting, what the hell is it for

"My lord, what wind brought you here?" Mother Zhao saw her legs trembling when she saw the head guard, cold face guard, everyone in the palace knows him, this person is a trusted guard of King Hao!

"All the palace ladies gather." Wu Ling's cold words stunned Madam Zhao, and when she reacted, her hands were trembling.

It was the first time Su Xi'er saw Grandma Zhao panic like this, this guard must be under somebody.

"Last night, a daring lady of the court attacked King Hao..." At this point, Wu Ling stopped, and his eyes swept away from the lady of the court who lined up in two lines.

If Ye Ting court lady offends King Hao, the whole Ye Ting will be unlucky, and Mother Zhao can't afford it. Although she wants to watch the excitement, she can't get involved in the matter of burning her body.

Thinking about this, Mother Zhao knelt down with a cry, her voice trembling, "My lord, the maid can't go out of the court without an order. Could it be that the king Hao came to the court yesterday?"

"Of course King Hao won't come to Yeting, he just drank some wine last night and entered the woods next to Yeting."

Wu Ling's cold words pierced Su Xi'er's ear like a needle. He drank alcohol last night, and the prodigal son in the woods next to Yeting was actually King Hao!

Beauty Palace, seventy-two concubines, when you see beautiful women, they like to be in the bag. His face was cold and evil, and his status was extremely high.

These characteristics matched that of the man last night.

Su Xi'er squeezed her sleeves tightly. He drank a lot of wine last night. He probably won't remember her appearance when he woke up today.

"My lord, there was no court lady out of the court last night! I beg your master!" Madam Zhao forced herself to calm down, and she must not be a court lady in court. A sneak attack on King Hao, whether it is intentional approaching or unintentional shot, is a dead word.

"Mother Zhao doesn't need to explain. After a thorough investigation, I know that since the woods next to Ye Ting were attacked, the first one to investigate should be Ye Ting." After Wu Ling finished speaking, she walked towards these court ladies with sharp eyes. Like an eagle, every palace lady couldn't help but get nervous.

Mother Zhao did not dare to speak, how could King Hao be attacked by a court lady so powerful? Although she had doubts in her heart, she did not dare to speak out with her a hundred courage.

"Showing both hands and wrists." Wu Ling commanded coldly.

With both hands and wrists, King Hao remembered spraining her wrist yesterday. Su Xi'er tightened her lips, and there were traces of herbs on her wrists. If this guard found out...

The most exciting thing now is Mu Tao, only she knows that someone out of Ye Ting yesterday. Humph, Su Xi'er, your death date is here!

Su Xi'er was at the end. Before showing her wrist, she glanced at the other palace ladies, some of them also had red marks on their wrists. Even the bruises were made by hard work.

As long as she is not a doctor who pinches her wrist, she will not be seen, and nothing can be seen by just looking at the wrist marks.

Thinking about this, she showed her wrists with confidence.

Slowly, Wu Ling got closer and closer to her. Finally, stand still in front of her, looking closely at her wrist with a pair of eyes.

"Why is there a strange smell in your hands?"

As soon as the words fell, Mother Zhao answered for her, "My lord, this court lady specializes in cleaning chamber pots. She did it all night last night."

Wu Ling frowned, and Mother Zhao was too frightened to speak.

"I'm not talking about the smell of chamber pot, you have the smell of herbs on your wrist."

Su Xi'er lowered her head and pretended to be flustered and replied, "My lord, the slave and maid accidentally fell down last night, and her wrist just fell to the grass at the edge of the well. Is the medicinal smell you mentioned the smell of ordinary grass?"

"If it's normal grass, I will ask you? Come and take it away." Wu Ling took a step back, and then two guards walked towards Su Xi'er.

Mu Tao's mouth raised slightly, Wu Shiwei really had good eyesight, she didn't even say that Su Xier was out of Yeting!

"My lord, the servant girl started cleaning the courtyard yesterday afternoon, washing the chamber pot at night, how can I have time to attack King Hao?" Su Xi'er looked at Wu Ling, pinched her wrist fiercely with her hand in her sleeve, and her eyes filled with tears in an instant. .

Wu Ling was stunned to see her like this.

He obeyed King Hao's instructions and started to investigate from Ye Ting. If she dared to hurt King Hao, this court lady must have full courage.

The palace lady who kept crying in front of her had no courage.

However, her wrists were very suspicious, and King Hao couldn't remember the palace maid's face clearly, after all, she drank alcohol last night.

Seeing Wu Ling hesitating, Mu Tao immediately walked out of the team and said, "My lord, the servant girl saw her out of Ye Ting last night, and came back in a panic!" She pointed her right hand and pointed Su Xi'er straight.

Sister Zhao's heart mentioned her throat, this unconscious person unexpectedly went out of Ye Ting! Miss Holland is right, this palace lady is restless and must be dealt with as soon as possible.

With the thought of watching the excitement, she didn't deal with her. It must be dealt with now, in order to watch the excitement, it is not worth it.

"Mu Tao, you don't sleep at night, but you care about me scrubbing the chamber pot. Want to plant the blame? Did you sneak attack on King Hao?" Su Xi'er changed the conversation and pointed directly at Mu Tao.

Mu Tao was frightened and knelt directly on the ground, "My lord Mingjian, not a servant! Su Xier must be the one who attacked King Hao!"

Wu Ling looked at Mu Tao coldly, and the court ladies fought like this. This wooden peach, keep it for now, and the one named Su Xier, he must take away.

"Wu Shiwei." At a critical moment, a woman's clear voice came.

Su Xier followed the sound, and it turned out to be Girl He.

"Xuan Empress Dowager's decree, Wu Shiwei enters Ci Ning Palace." Although He Ying smiled, but the words were full of seriousness.

Wu Ling replied calmly, "The subordinates will go after they finish the work."

"The Queen Mother's decree, there is no need to do this again."

As soon as the queen mother said this, Wu Ling could no longer arrest people.

However, when He Ying was speaking, her gaze fell on Su Xi'er, meaning it was unclear.

Grandma Zhao understood the look in her eyes, her eyes were slightly lowered, and Su Xier really couldn't keep it.

"The minister closely follows the Queen Mother's decree." Wu Ling respectfully saluted, and then walked away.

Su Xi'er breathed a sigh of relief, and the matter temporarily passed.

But, she didn't know, there was a man standing in the corner, and her expression was fully visible.

The corners of Pei Qianhao's mouth raised slightly, this one called Su Xi'er, it was interesting.
