Bring your son to chase after your wife, please go home

Chapter 474 The beginning of cinnabar's death (4)
"The maidservant had already lit it when she entered." Hua Yan recalled.

Baili Changge raised his eyebrows, "You said before that you checked all the front halls and rear halls and side halls before locking the door. This means that the candle has not been lit at that time, but you came out in less than a quarter of an hour. , Wei Hai screamed in the main hall, and the candle was lit at this time, you want to tell me that in this quarter of an hour, someone broke through your two locks and put the candle in. Ignite it?"

Huayan's face turned pale, and she hurriedly said: "Baili Tuiguan Mingjian, this servant really never touched that candle."

Baili Changge raised his eyebrows again, "It doesn't matter if you don't tell the truth, anyway, I will find out the truth sooner or later, but I'm afraid there is really no cure for your illness last night."

Huayan was shocked, and immediately climbed down from the couch and knelt in front of Baili Changge, crying, "The candle was indeed lit by a servant girl. I knew there was a candle there when I was cleaning it. I heard that Eunuch Wei After the voice was heard, the servant lit the lantern and went in to find the candle and lit it, but the servant only did this one thing, and did not kill anyone, please learn from me!"

"I believe in you." Baili Changge caught a glimpse of Huayan wearing a light blue braided bracelet, part of which was red, and she narrowed her eyes, "Huayan, take off your bracelet and show me."

Huayan didn't know why, but she obediently took off the bracelet.

Baili Changge took it and looked at it carefully for a moment, then suddenly asked her, "Why is there cinnabar powder on your bracelet?"

Huayan looked blank, she leaned over to take a look, and then said: "Yesterday, when the servant was going to Yingyue Palace, I accidentally bumped into a maid who was holding a half plate of cinnabar. Maybe it was glued to it at that time!"

"Do you still remember what that court lady looked like?" Baili Changge asked.

"I don't remember." Hua Yan said: "The court lady left in a hurry, she hurried away before I finished apologizing, I didn't see what she looked like."

"Then which palace did she go to?" Baili Changge thought that things like cinnabar could not be used indiscriminately. In this harem, at most one or two people would go to the House of Internal Affairs to get it in a day.

As expected, Huayan still shook her head in answer.

Ye Hen suddenly said: "I'll send someone to go to the House of Internal Affairs to check later and find out who took the cinnabar yesterday."

Baili Changge nodded, and looked at Huayan again, "Are you sure you didn't see anything like a mirror when you went in?"

"No." Hua Yan said: "Except for the dead body of Eunuch Wei, the servants didn't see anything."

"What's the use of that cinnabar?" Ye Hen asked her after leaving the Nuan Pavilion of Qixia Palace.

"Very useful." Baili Changge said: "Huayan is innocent, someone used her to successfully bring cinnabar into Yingyue Palace."

"I don't really understand." Ye Hen was slightly puzzled.

"I'll explain to you later." Baili Changge's mind was in a mess at this time, and he didn't know where to start with many clues.

Still walking through the rockery, Ye Hen noticed that the two turtles that were placed here last night had disappeared.

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he ran out with Baili Changge.

Baili Changge was stunned, not knowing what he was going to do, so he frowned and said, "Ye Hen, it's time to do business now, not when you're going crazy."

"I'm not crazy." Ye Hen said, "I'll take you to do an experiment."

Baili Changge's eyes moved, and he immediately asked, "What experiment?"

"An experiment related to the bronze mirror." Ye Hen dragged her to run quickly without looking back, and returned to Yonghe Hall in a short time.
