Xianyu's daughter-in-law wants to show her bad luck, and the prince knocks on the door every ni

Chapter 78 Besides staying in Shou'an Palace, where else has she been?

Xiao Shunzi came back alone.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, when the servant found Yin Ling, she suddenly stabbed herself with a knife, and she was already dead."

Gu Jinhao looked at the trembling Xiao Shunzi, and said coldly, "Go search her room to see if there is anything suspicious."

Xiao Shunzi backed away respectfully, and came back about half an hour later, holding a paper bag in his hand and accompanied by a little maid.

"Mother, this was found in a small box under Yin Ling's bed. Lan Shan shared a room with her, so the servant brought her along."

Gu Jinhao took the paper bag and handed it to Shen Qingshuang. She opened it and checked it, then nodded: "It's the poison on the hairpin. It should be melted in water, and then used to wipe the jewelry."

Concubine Xian snorted coldly: "It's really ruthless, I can think of such a way!"

Her eyes fell on Lan Shan, and the little girl was so frightened that she couldn't help herself: "Your Majesty, the slaves and servants absolutely did not participate, please find out clearly!"

Gu Jinhao said angrily: "Tell me what you know, if you can't tell, you and Yinling will end up together."

Lan Shan was frightened by him, her legs trembled, and she repeatedly said yes.

"During this period, Yin Ling got up very early every day. After the maidservant got up, she had already wiped the concubine's jewelry and finished other tasks. The maidservant once teased her that she wanted to please the master, but she just smiled wryly. , said that her elder brother was ill, and she wanted to please the master and earn more money to treat his illness. Slaves, slaves don’t even know that she dared to murder the master.”

master?I'm afraid it's another master!
Gu Jinhao said coldly: "Where has she been other than staying in Shou'an Palace?"

where?

Lan Shan thought for a while and said, "I didn't go anywhere. The only time I went to Xiangning Palace was four days ago to thank Nanny Jinfeng for her help."

Hearing Xiangning Palace, everyone's expressions changed.

Concubine Xian clenched her fists tightly, it was that old woman again!
He paused word by word: "What kind of help?"

Lan Shan didn't dare to hide anything, she bowed her head and said, "My servant once asked Yin Ling, she said that on the night of the concubine's birthday banquet, she accidentally bumped into the queen dowager in front of Fangfei Hall, and it was Jinfeng who begged her to spare her be punished."

Concubine Xian pondered for a while, then said slowly: "You all step back. The matter of Yin Ling's suicide is not allowed to be leaked. If anyone asks, I will say that I let her out of the palace."

Yuping went out with them, and Yinling's body should be disposed of properly.

Gu Jinhao looked at Shen Qingshuang, hesitant to speak.

Shen Qingshuang couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind, she felt hairy, and said first: "I don't know, I really don't know."

She is clear about the things mentioned in the book, and she can't talk nonsense about the things that are not mentioned, otherwise accidents will happen!

Especially those who are actually in power in the harem!

Concubine Xian said in a muffled voice: "Jinhao, how does the little girl know about the affairs in the palace? There are many ways to strike up a conversation."

Gu Jinhao: "."

Clearing his throat: "Mother Concubine, I want to find Shen Qingshu to confirm whether Yin Ling has really offended the Queen Mother."

Concubine Xian: "."

Well, that was her misunderstanding.

As soon as Shen Qingshu arrived home from Lengyuan, he ran into Xiao Shunzi waiting there.

Like a wooden stake, looking at him like a dog seeing meat!
"Commander Shen, are you back?"

Shen Qingshu thought it was funny, this is his house, is it strange to come back?

"You, who is your name, which palace? Who sent you? What do you want from me? I'm very tired now, you'd better finish your sentence at once, otherwise I won't promise not to beat you!"

The corner of Xiao Shunzi's mouth twitched, and he said honestly: "Slave Xiao Shunzi, Xiangning Palace, was sent by the Fourth Highness, and I have something to ask Commander Shen."

"Now?"

What time is this? What's the rush?
Xiao Shunzi nodded: "Yes, now."

Seeing his reluctance, he said again: "Miss Shen is also in our palace, I heard that she will stay with the concubine for a few days."

As soon as I heard that my sister was here, I had to go and see.

Don't talk nonsense, get on the carriage you just got off.

Arriving at Shou'an Palace, Shen Qingshu immediately saw his sister who was dozing off.

Just about to call her, when he looked again, Concubine Xian and Gu Jinhao were also dozing off with their chins on their hands.

Even Yuping is the same, but the three of them are sitting and she is standing.

Not a family, do not enter a door.Called him in the middle of the night, and they fell asleep.

"Chen Shen Qingshu sees the empress dowager and the Fourth Highness."

Gu Jinhao suddenly raised his head and said "oh".

Glancing at his mother, he just raised his eyelids.

He glanced at Shen Qingshuang without lifting his eyelids.

Only Yuping raised his head politely, but his eyes were dazed, obviously not awake.

Gu Jinhao sighed, and said in a low voice: "Check to see if anyone saw Yin Ling bumping into the queen mother on the night of the mother's concubine's birthday banquet, and whether Jinfeng asked for help."

That's it?Shen Qingshu's mouth twitched.

"The minister will give His Highness an answer tomorrow morning."

"It's alright, you can go back."

Shen Qingshu's hair was full of black lines, wouldn't it be enough to let that little Shunzi pass on the message?Did you call him over?
Glancing at his sister's unreserved sleeping position, he sighed.

"Mother Yuping, may I ask where Qingshuang lives at night?"

When Yuping heard him ask her, she immediately became sober.

"The servant took Commander Shen over there."

Shen Qingshu said "Thank you" and hugged his little sister who was sleeping in a daze.

Shen Qingshuang rubbed her eyes, saw that it was him, called "Second Brother" sweetly, and leaned into his arms naturally.

"It's cold at night, so sleeping like this is easy to catch cold."

"Oh, aren't you here?"

Shen Qingshu smiled: "Can I stay with you forever?"

The little girl in her arms muttered: "Yes."

The smile became warmer: "Okay, you can do it if you say so!"

Gu Jinhao watched sourly, extremely envious.

Concubine Xian yawned and patted his son on the shoulder: "There are three elder brothers who love and protect the calf to death, son, the road ahead is long!"

Just took two steps, then turned back: "Tomorrow, let the little girl detoxify the poison on those jewelry."

Gu Jinhao said, "Why didn't you just throw it away?"

Concubine Xian snorted: "You are really rich, many of them were given by your father back then, you know how disrespectful you are? Besides, throwing it away doesn't mean we know the other party's conspiracy? Let's do it, and pay it back in his own way. Treat the body of a person. My old lady has not fought in the palace for a long time, do I really think that my old lady is a weak chicken? I'm dizzy!"

Gu Jinhao smiled slightly: "Yes, concubine mother."

"Also, Qingshuang was also affected by that golden hairpin. Although she drank the medicine, it did some damage to her body. In the past few days, I learned to cook some tonic soup for her to drink."

"Is Erchen's stew safe to drink?"

Gu Jinhao was a little skeptical, he couldn't tell the difference between sugar and salt, would the little girl dislike it?

Concubine Xian thinks this is reasonable, so it's better not to mess around.

"Then remember to return the 12 taels of silver, she likes silver!"

Early the next morning, Shen Qingshu came to Shouan Palace.He has already questioned all the guards on duty that night, and no one has ever seen a maid bump into the Queen Mother.

In this way, things will become clear.

Shen Qingshu still wanted to follow up on Tang Xi's case, so he stayed soon and went to Lengyuan again.

After lunch, Concubine Xian chose a peony and put it in her hair bun, and took Yuping to Xiangning Palace.

Jin Feng saw her coming from a distance, and hurriedly went to inform the Queen Mother.

"Why is she here?" The Empress Dowager said impatiently, "Please come in."

Originally thought that the woman was here to show off her power again, but when she saw her, she was shocked.

Pale face, pale lips, where is the brilliance of the previous few days?

The Queen Mother's mood immediately brightened, and she greeted her for the first time: "What's wrong with my sister, are you feeling unwell?"
