Chapter 31: Talented and Passionate (2)
Immediately, the regent's spirit was lifted, and he sat up straight on the grand master's chair, his narrowed phoenix eyes gradually opened, and he looked down brightly, and told the eunuch beside him, "It's tiring to stand and write, go and write for everyone." A young lady adds a chair and lights the incense burner."

The eunuch was a little tongue-tied, since when did the regent care so much about the palace banquet?Isn't poetry and calligraphy performances all standing up every year, and I have never sat down.If you want to return to your thoughts, hurry up and pass on the order.

"Luo'er, come here!" Yao Lingling said something to the person on the other end, and the woman changed the table and vacated the seat for Yun Ziluo.

"Luoer, come on, if you can't do it, don't force it!" Chu Ziyuan stood up, and Yun Ziluo who rushed over said in a low voice.

Yun Ziluo smiled slightly and walked past him.

Xiao Tong was sitting beside Chu Ziyuan, shaking his head constantly.

"What's wrong?" Chu Ziyuan's face changed slightly.

"Let me tell you, you shouldn't worry about her." Xiao Tong leaned back in the chair, looked at Yun Ziluo's back and murmured, "You don't know how scheming she is in chess, I guess, this group of women I'm going to lose today."

Chu Ziyuan didn't know her chess skills, but he had heard her piano, so he still believed in Yun Ziluo in his heart.

Just caring is messy.

Yun Qingping's forehead was slightly sweaty, and the hand holding the Langhao pen trembled slightly, once again seeking Zhu Xiang's affirmation with his eyes.

Zhu Xiang exchanged glances with a palace lady in yellow over there, and nodded calmly at Chao Yun.

Seeing Yun Ziluo sitting down, the queen mother said, "Regent, what do you want to write?"

The regent said in a deep voice: "The time can't be too long. Five-character poems are the best. This king sees that the snowy plums brought from this palace are blooming well. Why don't we use plums as the topic."

As he said that, he looked at Yun Ziluo with some concern, and added: "It doesn't have to be a poem, as long as it doesn't deviate from the topic, it's fine to write plums or paint plums."

He was afraid that Yun Ziluo would not be able to write.

The ink on everyone's table has been ground by the maid, and the maid came to distribute the rice paper.

"Plum blossoms..." Yun Ziluo looked at clusters of blooming snow plums in the corner of the hall, before thinking about it, a poem about plum came rushing to her face.

On a snowy day the year before last, the ancient Yun Ziluo stood on the edge of the back mountain of Yunfu, looking at a clump of plum blossoms swaying in the wind on the mountain road outside the mansion, feeling something in his heart for a moment, and wrote a seven-character poem when he returned to Liyuan.

That poor child is gone, but her poetry, her literary talent, should not be so buried.

Yun Ziluo planned to do one more thing for her.

When the rice paper was delivered to her hand, Yun Ziluo lowered her head and took it. Suddenly, her fingertips felt hot. She was startled, threw away the rice paper, and quickly looked at the fingertips of the fingers on her right hand, which were already swollen.

"Who?" She yelled angrily, and then she turned to look at the paper that was sent by the maid, and she actually put something on the paper!
However, the maid who distributed the rice paper just now came together, and that person had already mixed with them, and he didn't know who did it.

"What's the matter?" The regent flew down from his seat, grabbed Yun Ziluo's wrist, his eyes were already filled with anger!

The hall immediately became a mess, Chu Hanlin and Chu Ziyuan came quickly.

The Empress Dowager sat on a high seat, her face terribly gloomy.

"Huojiaofen!" The regent said the name coldly, and his right foot in the black cloud climbing boots had already stepped on the rice paper, "How bold!"

Li Mou looked at the group of maids.

The maids all turned pale, plopped down on their knees, and cried out: "I don't know, slaves!"

Seeing this scene, Chu Ziyuan was also furious. He frowned and said quickly, "You guys came to distribute the paper just now. The pepper powder was put on the rice paper. It must have been done by one of you! If you If you don’t know, why are your hands alright?”

At this moment, the regent took out a bottle of refreshing medicine from his bosom, poured it into the palm of his hand, and habitually rubbed it on the fingertips of Yun Ziluo's right hand one by one.

"I'll do it." Yun Ziluo quickly stepped on him.

The regent gave her a distressed look, and withdrew his hand, not wanting to damage her reputation, so he took a step back and kept a little distance from her.

Hot pepper powder is not poisonous, it will feel hot and painful when sprinkled on the skin, and there is no other harm, so it is very common and easy to deal with, but there is no effective antidote, so the redness and swelling will take at least a few hours to disappear.

The regent's eyes were as cold as icebergs. He glanced at these maids, and his voice seemed to have been frozen from an ice cellar: "Since no one admits it, then pull them all down and cut them off!"

"The Regent, spare your life! The Regent, spare your life!" These maids were so frightened that they wept.

Chu Ziyuan only felt that something was wrong. Although the regent's actions were bloodthirsty and ruthless, and there were rumors in the workshop that he was moody and ruthless, he would not kill people for no reason. There was a reason for it.

But this time, he would rather kill one person by mistake than let one person go, and for whom?
How could he say anything?
All the ladies in the palace were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They only thought that the thunderstorms above their heads were the culprits. They didn't expect that the regent would rather implicate so many people than put himself to death. They were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat.

Yun Ziluo saw that the regent wanted to drag all these people out and kill them, so she hurriedly shouted: "I have a way to find the murderer!"

Her voice was clear and crisp, and everyone in the hall would focus on her, and the other daughters of a thousand golds had already stood together out of fear.

"Luo... what can the fourth concubine do?" The regent waved his hand, letting the guards who came over to step aside first.

Yunzi Luoyang said with a face: "When I found something wrong just now, I threw the rice paper away with my backhand, and the hot powder on the paper spilled on the back of that person's clothes. As long as these people touch their backs, whose hands will If it swells up, whoever will be the one to strike!"

After finishing speaking, she added: "At that time, I stood close, and the hot powder could only fall on the murderer, not others."

The regent's sharp eyes swept across the court ladies kneeling on the ground, Chu Ziyuan nodded: "This is a good way, let them touch it now."

"Wait." Yun Ziluo looked sideways at the regent, "Let the guards separate them first, take them to different rooms to carry out together, and then bring them out one by one for inspection, and don't let them meet, lest the person who kills them still have medicine powder on them , hurt others."

The regent replied in a deep voice: "It is said that if that person is playing tricks, there is no way to find out." As he said, his warning eyes swept across the maid's face.

The guards led the group of maids into the apse, taking advantage of the time, Yun Ziluo quickly walked over and whispered a few words in the regent's ear.

There was a trace of surprise in the regent's eyes, he looked at her, nodded, and went with the guards.

The time for a stick of incense passed, and the regent came out with the first lady-in-waiting.

She was crying heavily, but she only dared to choke up and not make a sound.

When everyone looked at her hand, they were all taken aback.

"Presumptuous!" The Queen Mother jumped up and walked down the jade steps, "You did it?"

The palace lady hurriedly shook her head and knelt on her knees: "No, no, Queen Mother! It's really not me, and I don't know why there are hot powder on the clothes, it must be framed by others!"

The queen mother looked at Yun Ziluo, and Yun Ziluo said calmly: "Aunt queen mother, don't rush to draw conclusions now, there are still people who haven't come out yet."

The regent stepped over, walked up to her, and gave her an approving look.

The others were full of confusion.

The second maid was also escorted out by the guards with red and swollen hands, the third, the fourth...

Yao Lingling walked over quietly and whispered, "Luoer, why are there so many?"

"Don't worry."

As soon as Yun Ziluo finished speaking, the eighth court lady came out from the inner room with a smile on her face, but when everyone looked at her hand, it was exactly the same as before entering.

"Hey, why doesn't she have any in her hand?" Chu Ziyuan was surprised.

The regent's eyes darkened slightly, and Chongyun Ziluo nodded slightly.

Yun Ziluo smiled and explained to the family members of ministers who were also puzzled: "Because, it was her who did it!"

"Ah, why?" There were voices of doubt all around.

Yun Ziluo said in a deep voice, "The ones behind can come out together."

Sure enough, among the sixteen court ladies, only the No.8 green-clothed maid's hand was intact.

Yun Ziluo stretched out her index finger and made a "quiet" gesture, pointing to the pale-faced maid in green and said: "When the maids entered just now, the regent ordered someone to cover each of their lapels. Hot powder, but they don't know it themselves."

"Then, let these guards just stand at the door and not follow in. In this way, those who have no ghosts in their hearts will naturally touch the back of their clothes openly, and their hands will be eroded by hot powder."

Yun Ziluo looked at the maid in green and smiled: "And she has ghosts in her heart, and with the guards standing far away, she won't be so stupid as to touch her lapel, so her hands are not hurt at all!"

Everyone froze after hearing these words.

This, such a roundabout method, can't help but convince people!

And the person who came up with this method turned out to be Yun Ziluo, the second young lady of the Yun family!Moreover, in such a short period of time, the murderer threw himself into the trap!
These veteran ministers who have been in the court for many years can't help but ask themselves, if they change themselves, how can they be so fast?
The palace maid in green had no trace of blood on her face, she gritted her teeth and looked at Yun Ziluo in disbelief.

Yun Ziluo said loudly: "Actually, I didn't sprinkle hot powder on you at all. All the hot powder was thrown on you when you first entered. You have ghosts in your heart, and I probably don't dare to believe it all." My words, I think, you must have tested the back of the skirt with your arm first, and found out that there is really hot powder, and then you believed my words, and saw that the guards saw it loosely, so you didn't try it with your hands at all."

After saying this, she walked over quickly, and lifted the sleeves of her arms with her left hand like lightning.

"Hiss—" a gasp sounded in the hall.

Everyone could clearly see that the left elbow of the maid in green was indeed red and swollen!
The regent king, Chu Ziyuan, Chu Hanlin, Yao Lingling, the queen mother and Yun Qingping, all the men and women in the hall were silent, but some were pleasantly surprised, some resented, and some were afraid.

Yun Ziluo raised the corners of her lips slightly, she only took advantage of the guilty conscience of her attackers to make the green-clothed court lady surface.

"There must be a mastermind behind her!" Chu Ziyuan said first.

Xiao Tong stood aside blankly and looked at Yun Ziluo for a while, but now he listened to Chu Ziyuan's words, the corners of his eyes raised slightly, and he glanced lightly at Yun Qingping who was trying his best to hide his panic.

He said slowly: "Put the hot powder on the rice paper, it can't do any harm to the person at all, the only thing that can be achieved is to prevent the fourth princess from participating in the competition. Let me ask, here, who wants the fourth princess to participate in the competition the most? What about winning the title?"

Everyone was reminded by him, and their eyes turned to the dozen or so young ladies.

"No way, could it be they did it? But Miss Yun Er, does she know calligraphy and painting?"

"You're stupid, you, have you forgotten that Miss Yun'er's superb piano sound last time? It surpassed Miss Yao! Why can't someone who knows the piano understand calligraphy and painting? Maybe it's Miss Yao this time." hands, for fear that Miss Yuner would make her look ugly again..."

The discussion was not low-key at all, and everyone here could hear it clearly.
