People in the palace panic.
Two days later, Huan'er from Concubine Qing's palace was taken away, as was Erfeng, the eldest maid from Concubine Jing's palace.
There were miserable female cries from the torture room in the palace, which was especially frightening in the early winter night.
In the room where Qingyun was locked up, several guards were added.
In Fang Palace where Wen Heng is locked up, people often hear women crying. Everyone knows that this empress has been imprisoned here all this time, and now she has lost her son too. bit too cruel.
Another day later, the coral in Changle Palace suddenly fell into the pond in the Imperial Garden and drowned. Coral has been with Liu Hui for many years.
Liu Huihou buried Coral.
The case of the little prince became more complicated and confusing.
Another day later, Concubine Qing and Concubine Jing were locked up respectively. The harem atmosphere is weird,
The emperor didn't seem to care much about the little prince's case recently, he returned to the Linhua Palace to accompany the queen after he retired from court, he was neither happy nor angry, just like usual. However, the screams in the execution room did not stop for a day.
He didn't bother to use this kind of psychological deterrent tactics, and he didn't want to use it in the harem. He rarely used cruelty to his harem. It's just that Lan Ling's experience made him understand that the harem is no less dangerous than the battlefield.
On this day, Qingyun had dinner and was sitting in front of the desk reading a book when suddenly there was a loud noise outside. She was just about to stand up when she suddenly felt dizzy and immediately held her breath and lay down on the table.
A masked person came in from the window, and Qingyun saw the slender figure from the gap in the sleeve.
Holding a dagger, the man slowly approached her.
Qingyun stretched out his hand and quietly touched the dagger on his leg, slowly pulled it out, and the breath of the man came from behind him.
She clenched the dagger tightly and stabbed the man in the shoulder. Before she could turn around, she was slapped on the back of the neck and passed out.
Qingyun was awakened by a burst of screams, "It's not good! Concubine Qing was killed!"
Concubine Qing was killed? Qingyun raised his head and saw that he was covered in blood, holding a dagger in his hand, and not far away, lay a person, also covered in blood.
It was a woman who screamed just now. She came over with a food box, which seemed to be delivering food.
A few guards ran in and gasped after entering.
Just as Qingyun was about to move, he was pressed to the ground and tied up.
Qingyun looked at everything in front of him calmly, Concubine Qing was actually killed, the murderer obviously wanted to put the blame on her.
She was looking around when the door opened and Ling Chen walked in, followed by King Rui, Bai Shaoting, Huo Jingyun, and Han Zhitao.
Ling Chen walked up to Concubine Qing to have a look, walked to Qingyun and asked: "Are you even going to kill Concubine Qing?"
Qingyun said: "Why did I kill Concubine Qing? I came here after waking up. Last night a man came into the room where I was locked up and knocked me out, but I stabbed him. On the left arm. "
Ling Chen frowned at her, raised his hand and waved, King Rui and Bai Shaoting went over to check on Concubine Qing's body.
Bai Shaoting heard Qingyun's words, got up and came over and asked: "Princess, you said you stabbed that person?"
"Yes."
There were messy footsteps outside the door, and Liu Hui walked in covering her mouth.
"Your Majesty, what's going on? Why did this happen? Princess, although Concubine Qing said that she was disrespectful to her in words, she has a good heart. The princess shouldn't kill her no matter what!" Liu Hui said while looking at her eyes. famous.
Qing Yun's face turned cold: "Concubine Hui, there is no any quarrel between me and Concubine Qing, nor is she disrespectful to me, where did the concubine come from for her words?"
The emperor looked up at Liu Hui, "Grand Concubine Hui, why do you say that?"
Liu Huidao: "Concubine Qing has some complaints about the emperor wanting to accept Princess Qingyun as his concubine. Concubine Qing thinks that the princess is a bit like the empress, saying that the emperor has left the harem cold for the sake of the queen. If she marries Princess Qingyun again, I'm afraid , I'm afraid everyone will be even more unpopular..."
Ling Chen looked at her: "So, what about Concubine Qing?"
Liu Hui lowered her head.
Ling Chen said: "Concubine Hui, you won't just tell me these things, Concubine Qing has complaints against me, right?" He looked at her coldly.
Liu Hui lowered her head. She had never said anything similar in front of the emperor before, and she had never discussed anything he did.
Now, because of Concubine Qing's death, she had talked a lot with the emperor, and the emperor would think her words were Liu Hui's own thoughts.
Liu Hui raised her head again, "The meaning of what the concubine said is that Concubine Qing doesn't like the princess. That's why Princess Qingyun will kill Concubine Qing."
Qingyun said: "Concubine Hui, I didn't kill anyone."
At this moment, Huo Jingyun glanced at Qingyun and shook his head at her.
Qingyun immediately shut up.
Ling Chen didn't say anything about Liu Hui's words, not even King Rui and Bai Shaoting said a word.
Instead, Bai Shaoting asked Qingyun: "Princess, are you sure that the knife was stabbed in the assassin's body?"
Qingyun nodded: "Left shoulder."
Albatron was put in prison. Xiaojing was also locked in together.
Seeing Xiaojing, Qingyun immediately pulled Xiaojing to look him up and down: "They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?"
Xiaojing shook his head, "No, they are locked in a separate room, everything else is normal."
Qingyun rolled some hay and spread it on the ground, and sat there.
The battle in the palace never ends.
Although Qingyun was caught in prison, he still had enough to eat and use. Even Xiaojing's weapons are still on his body.
Qingyun lived in the prison for one night, and was released early the next morning. Two guards escorted her out of the cell, Qingyun asked: "You two, have you caught the murderer who killed Concubine Qing?"
The guard shook his head.
"Then why did you let me go?"
"The emperor let it go. The emperor said that Princess Qingyun would not kill Concubine Qing."
"Have you caught the murderer of the little prince?" Qing Yun asked again.
The guard said: "No."
Qingyun was a little frustrated, it has been five or six days, has the case not progressed yet
Although Qingyun was released, he was asked to stay in Shufang Palace during this period of time, and not to go anywhere.
At night, Qingyun was sleeping soundly, and was awakened by a burst of cold, and her back suddenly felt numb. She sat up suddenly, and saw a person standing at the door.
"Who?" Qingyun picked up the soft whip on the bedside.
The man was agile, he rushed over with a stride, and stabbed with his sword.
Qingyun rolled on the spot, "Who are you? Come, catch the assassin!"
The man covered his face and was agile. He stabbed fiercely with his sword. Qingyun couldn't beat the man, but Qingyun was familiar with the way: "It's you again! Your arm is not healed yet, so you can't wait?".
The man didn't speak, just beckoning. Qingyun retreated step by step.
"Who are you? Why do I think we are so familiar? Whose palace are you from? Liu Hui? Concubine Qing?"
The man's moves were even more fierce, with the long sword pointing at Qingyun, every step was terrific!
Suddenly it was bright outside, the door opened, and many people came in with a whoosh.
It was Ling Chen standing in front. Gu Fan, Yang Shuo, and Zhang Yang have already rushed forward.
The man was visibly startled when he saw them, and the sword in his hand panicked.
He seemed to realize that he had fallen into a trap, and his steps became more messy.
The long sword in the man's hand was knocked to the ground by Gu Fan in two rounds. He rolled over to pick up the sword that fell next to him, and laid it across his neck.
Huo Jingyun got up and jumped over, slapped far away, a gust of wind hit the man's wrist, and the man's sword fell down.
The man collapsed on the ground, King Rui stepped forward and tore off the man's mask, he screamed: "Why are you?"
