Erotic dreams leave no trace. The traceless here means that when the incense is burning, it will make people lose their reason, stimulate people's interest like **, and make men and women forget their love and become infatuated, but after the incense is burned, it will not leave any trace.
There will be no trace of poison in the body, and no trace will be left where it burns. This incense is extremely delicate, and after burning, the dust will float in the air and be blown away by the wind like ash.
Therefore, when Liu Sanzhi sent people to check on the female historian's body, he went to the scene of the incident in person but did not find any traces.
The one who returned with Liu Sanzhi was Marquis Zhenbei. Marquis Zhenbei and Marquis Pingyao searched for the assassin at the same time. Marquis Pingyao arrested Fazhao and Nushi, while Marquis Zhenbei dragged back a corpse and brought two people back with him.
“This is…” Emperor Youning’s face suddenly darkened.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have been chasing the assassin and following the trail to..." The Marquis of Zhenbei paused before saying, "Outside the courtyard of Concubine Rong, I happened to see these two eunuchs dragging the assassin and trying to destroy the body!"
The two eunuchs were shaking with fear, and when Concubine Rong saw the man pulling down the black cloth covering her face, the color drained away from her face.
This person is from the Rong family!
This person was indeed sent by her, but he was not sent to assassinate His Majesty, but to capture Shen Xihe.
In fact, she had set up a chain of traps. Zi Yu was just bluffing. Zi Yu was abducted. She found that there was something wrong with Li Nu and she must have informed Shen Xihe's people before she fainted. She was worried that Shen Xihe was being plotted against.
However, the number of people that each master can bring to Xiangguo Temple is limited, and there is only one person left behind. The rest will be placed together with the ladies in other palaces. They cannot act rashly for even a moment, otherwise they will alarm others.
Therefore, the people who stayed behind with Shen Xihe, after receiving Zi Yu's warning, would definitely go to the kitchen to find out what was going on. Concubine Rong had already made arrangements for the kitchen. She knew that all the maids around Shen Xihe were carefully selected from the northwest and were skilled in martial arts.
Not daring to take it lightly, they chose a young and skilled member of the Rong family, the eldest son of Concubine Rong's half-brother, who worked in the Jinwu Guard and had easy access to the place, so he could easily escape if anything happened.
As long as Shen Xihe and a maid were caught, they would assassinate her. Shen Xihe's attempt to murder the imperial concubine for the sake of palace power was no small crime.
Concubine Rong never expected that Shen Xihe was even more ruthless than her. She just wanted Shen Xihe to become a person who would do anything to gain power, but Shen Xihe made her become a person who rebelled against the emperor for power!
Xiao Changqing closed his eyes, Xiao Changying clenched his fists and clenched his teeth. The two brothers had long told their mother not to easily become an enemy of the Eastern Palace. The Crown Princess was by no means an ordinary person. She had held the power in the palace for so many years. If she continued to hold the power, His Majesty would not make her the legitimate wife. Why bother herself with this
But A'niang is deeply in love with His Majesty. She always feels that if she holds the power in the palace and waits for the Crown Prince to die, His Majesty's vow not to appoint another queen in order to maintain the Crown Prince's status will be self-defeating. For the sake of the world, His Majesty will just have to follow the trend and appoint another queen.
He was so foolish and delusional that he totally ignored the words of the two brothers, which led to his current dead end!
The one with the best expression was not Concubine Rong, but Emperor Youning. Others might not know what the assassination plot was about, but how could Emperor Youning not know
